Las Vegas Raiders: 2021 Week 13 Fantasy Football Start ‘Em or Sit ‘Em

Start Em’

Hunter Renfrow

With starting tight end Darren Waller sidelined for this matchup, the onus is on the Raiders receiving corps to pick up where the talented tight end might have left off in this contest. The best of the bunch is clearly Hunter Renfrow. The third-year receiver is leading the Raiders in receptions, yards, and touchdowns, and has been very consistent throughout the season.

After an impressive eight-catch, 134-yard performance in Week 12, the ceiling is rising even higher for Renfrow. Quarterback Derek Carr will look constantly at the slot receiver, if you have him on your fantasy roster you MUST start him in Week 13.

Derek Carr:

The most obvious choice to start in Fantasy if you own any Raider is of course the captain. Carr is leading the league in passing yards, and after three horrific outings prior to Week 12, he was a contestant to be sat every week. He changed the narrative this past week, putting up a cornucopia of yardage in a surprising win in Dallas on Thanksgiving.

It seems the quarterback may have regained some confidence after some disappointing play over the last few weeks. If you own Carr, he should be started in every format for this clash.
