Drake London vs Parker Washington: Who Should You Start?
Two wide receivers who will land on plenty of the same rosters in 2026. Drake London (Atlanta Falcons) finished the 2025 season averaging 14.0 fantasy points per game in 12 games. Parker Washington (Jacksonville Jaguars) came in at 9.7 PPG over 16 games. The gap is real but not insurmountable with the right matchup.
Drake London carries a 4.3-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Drake London turned 112 targets into 919 yards and 7 touchdowns, while Parker Washington converted 95 looks into 847 yards and 5 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
One thing to note: both players share a Week 12 bye. That means you need a backup plan at wide receiver for that week, especially if one of these two is your starter.
