Who Should I Start? Caleb Williams or Keon Coleman

The Athletic's Adam Jahns writes that Chicago Bears new head coach Ben Johnson is challenging second-year quarterback Caleb Williams every day about everything and is coaching him hard, which should be a good thing for his development going into his second NFL season. Johnson's fiery, demanding persona stood out on the practice field during the offseason program, and it's expected to continue into training camp this summer. The 23-year-old was sacked a league-high 68 times while throwing for 3,541 yards, 20 touchdowns and six interceptions in 17 starts after being the first overall pick in last year's draft. He also rushed for 489 yards. Fantasy managers should give the USC product a pass after the Bears fired their head coach and offensive coordinator midway through Williams' rookie season. With Johnson now running the offense and plenty of weapons at his disposal, Williams should take a step forward in 2025.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has been impressed with second-year wideout Keon Coleman early in training camp. "He's taking that next step for sure. I mean today, dude put on a show," Shakir said. Coleman got off to an inconsistent start in minicamp, but he appears to have put that behind him early in camp. The Bills are hoping that the 22-year-old will take the next step in 2025 after he disappointed with 29 receptions for 556 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (12 starts). The good thing is that he averaged 19.2 yards per catch, and Amari Cooper is no longer on the team. If Joshua Palmer is used as more of the team's deep threat, Coleman could be freed up for more underneath routes and more yards-after-the catch potential. It's a good start in camp for a receiver that could be an excellent value pick in upcoming fantasy drafts.
