Brian Thomas vs Drake London: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Brian Thomas and Drake London is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver put up 8.2 PPG in 2025 over 14 games; Drake London of the Atlanta Falcons averaged 14.0 in 12. A 5.8-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 5.8 points favors Drake London, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one wide receiver to the other.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Brian Thomas turned 91 targets into 707 yards and 2 touchdowns, while Drake London converted 112 looks into 919 yards and 7 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
Both share a Week 12 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking wide receivers this deep on your bench, plan your replacement wide receiver early.
