CeeDee Lamb vs Drake London: Who Should You Start?
CeeDee Lamb and Drake London are both viable fantasy wide receivers heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. CeeDee Lamb averaged 11.7 PPG across 14 games with the Dallas Cowboys, while Drake London posted 14.0 PPG in 12 appearances for the Atlanta Falcons.
A 2.3-PPG gap gives Drake London the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. CeeDee Lamb turned 117 targets into 1077 yards and 3 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.
One scheduling note: CeeDee Lamb is off Week 7 and Drake London Week 12. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
