Who Should I Start? Adam Thielen or Romeo Doubs

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Tai Felton had a chance to make an early-season impact, but that is seemingly out the door with the addition of Adam Thielen. The Vikings brought back the 35-year-old earlier this week to shore up depth concerns at the position. Jordan Addison (suspension) will miss the first three games of the season, and Jalen Nailor (hand) is a question mark for Week 1. If Nailor is active on game day, Felton is, at best, the fourth wide receiver in the rotation. The third-round pick will fall further down the depth chart when Addison's ban is lifted. Minnesota has largely had a concentrated passing attack when all options are healthy, so it's unlikely Felton will make any noticeable impact in 2025. He can stay off draft boards in redraft formats.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs scored on his only look from quarterback Malik Willis in the Packers' 20-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks in their final preseason game. The Packers' wide receiver room has been decimated by injuries during the preseason, but it was a bit of an eye-opener to see Doubs, who has run the most routes for the Packers over the last two seasons, play the first two series of the game. Doubs scored on a one-yard snag from starting quarterback Malik Willis, and Doubs' day was over after that. The Packers can now rest up for their Week 1 home opener against the Detroit Lions. For fantasy purposes, Doubs is more of a late-round fantasy wide receiver with capped production upside, but he should be on the field quite a bit.
