Jalen McMillan vs Jordan Addison: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Jalen McMillan and Jordan Addison is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver put up 6.0 PPG in 2025 over 4 games; Jordan Addison of the Minnesota Vikings averaged 8.1 in 14. A 2.1-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 2.1 points favors Jordan Addison, 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.
Target volume is the story here. Jordan Addison saw 79 targets in 2025, while Jalen McMillan drew 15. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Jordan Addison, even in weeks where Jalen McMillan posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
Jalen McMillan has his bye in Week 11, and Jordan Addison rests in Week 6. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at wide receiver for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
