Should You Start or Sit Marvin Mims Jr. in Week 2?
Marvin Mims Jr. was a popular breakout candidate this summer after he showed signs down the stretch of 2024 that indicated he could be a project for Sean Payton to work on.
Personally, I lost affection for him after Pat Bryant was drafted, but maybe the answer is that neither will be consistent enough to ever trust.
Sutton was the only Bronco pass catcher on the field for over 62% of their offensive snaps in Week 1 (Mims: 50.7%, behind Troy Franklin for those keeping track at home) and if that is how this rotation is going to work, you’re grasping for straws in thinking that there is a WR2 worth your time.
In the win, Mims finished with three catches for 12 yards and a lost fumble. I’m going to be a week late, maybe a month late, on the Mims breakout should it happen. There’s simply too much variance in this offense for me to be interested, especially if you’re operating with optimism toward their WR-RB-TE trio that we all generally like.
The Broncos are a good real-life team, but their fantasy appeal is limited at the moment and stands to stay that way for the next four months.
