The Seattle Seahawks have agreed on a deal with free-agent wide receiver Cooper Kupp on Friday. The two sides have reportedly agreed on a three-year, $45 million deal. The veteran wideout will receive $15 million per year, which seems reasonable, assuming Kupp can actually stay healthy. The 32-year-old hasn't played a full season since 2021, but should be an immediate impact player in Seattle. The organization has given new quarterback Sam Darnold some solid weapons with Kupp and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Fantasy managers have seen Kupp's stats drop over the last few seasons, but he has only been injured in each of the last three seasons. The Seahawks are lacking legitimate playmakers, so Kupp should see plenty of targets in Seattle.

The Green Bay Packers have agreed to terms with rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden on a four-year, $17.57 million contract. Green Bay spent the No. 23 overall pick on the Texas alum, making him the first first-round wideout since the franchise selected Javon Walker in the first round of 2002. With the contract, he becomes the highest-paid Packers WR. The depth of Green Bay's wide receiver room is one of the most noteworthy knocks against him, but Golden brings something to the table that the other pass-catchers don't, and that's his blazing speed. The 21-year-old makes for an intriguing addition to the team's roster as a deep threat and should get an opportunity to play right away. However, it isn't easy to project significant volume coming his way. Even if he works to the top of the pecking order in the WR corps, the Packers have made it clear they'd like to establish the run -- bolstering the third-lowest pass rate in the NFL in 2024. Golden could prove to be an effective weapon for Jordan Love in the passing game, but the spread-it-around ways of the Packers' offense won't do him any favors.
