Who Should I Start? Dallas Goedert or Garrett Wilson

The Philadelphia Eagles and tight end Dallas Goedert are finalizing a reworked deal, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Enquirer. Goedert is entering his final season under contract, and the Eagles were said to be fielding trade offers during the draft. The veteran tight end was aware of the trade chatter, and now, he's reportedly taking a pay cut to stay with the Eagles for several years as they look to defend their Super Bowl title. Injuries limited Goedert to a career-low 10 games last season, and as a result, his production dwindled. He finished the year with just 42 catches for 496 yards and two touchdowns. Although he's behind Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, and DeVonta Smith in the Eagles' offensive pecking order, he should be a top-12 fantasy tight end if he can stay healthy. At the very least, Philadelphia's willingness to sign him to a reworked deal indicates that they want him to remain a central point of their offense for several years to come.

The New York Jets are picking up the fifth-year option on wide receiver Garrett Wilson, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It will cost the Jets $16.8 million for the 2026 season. The 24-year-old former first-rounder (10th overall) out of Ohio State could work out a long-term contract extension this offseason that would make his fifth-year option basically a mute point, though. Despite dealing with inconsistent quarterback play in his three years in the NFL, Wilson has been productive with three straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons and 14 touchdowns on 279 catches (469 targets) in 51 games played (46 starts). Even though there are questions about how much the Jets will throw the ball with dual-threat QB Justin Fields now in town, Wilson has excellent chemistry with Fields from their days at Ohio State and should be heavily targeted as the unquestioned WR1 in 2025.
