Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Bryan Edwards

Wednesday, May 1, 11:55 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton is expected to remain a starter despite the addition of first-round pick Malik Nabers, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Duggan notes that while Slayton has expressed frustration about his current contract status, the pass-catcher is expected to open the 2024 campaign as New York's No. 2 receiver behind Nabers. Such an alignment would push Jalin Hyatt into the No. 3 role, at least to start the year. Isaiah Hodgins, Isaiah McKenzie, and Gunner Olszewski would round out the depth chart. With uncertainty at quarterback and increased competition in the passing game, Slayton isn't a very enticing name for the 2024 fantasy football season. In all likelihood, he'll open the year on the fringe of rosters and waiver wires in most 12-team redraft formats.

The Saints waived wide receiver Bryan Edwards on Tuesday. The wideout, a 2020 third-round pick for the Raiders, hasn't met expectations during his career, totaling 48 catches for 770 yards and four touchdowns in 36 games with Las Vegas and Atlanta. He signed with New Orleans in March, so he didn't last long with the Saints. However, he may get claimed off waivers, although that won't mean a thing for fantasy purposes.
