CeeDee Lamb vs Marvin Harrison: Who Should You Start?
CeeDee Lamb and Marvin Harrison 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 Marvin Harrison posted 8.9 PPG in 12 appearances for the Arizona Cardinals.
A 2.8-PPG gap gives CeeDee Lamb 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.
Target volume is the story here. CeeDee Lamb saw 117 targets in 2025, while Marvin Harrison drew 73. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for CeeDee Lamb, even in weeks where Marvin Harrison posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
One scheduling note: CeeDee Lamb is off Week 7 and Marvin Harrison Week 11. 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.
