Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Jaylin Noel

Monday, March 10, 7:13 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has signed a new extension with the organization on Monday. The two sides have agreed to a three-year, $36 million extension. Slayton has been with the Giants since being drafted in the fifth round by the team in 2019. The 28-year-old had a down year in 2024, but has posted four seasons with 700 receiving yards or more during his career. He's certainly not a top option, but is a nice asset to have alongside Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson. Slayton will probably float around WR4 value, but that depends on what else the Giants add this offseason.

Houston Texans rookie third-round wide receiver Jaylin Noel (hamstring) missed time during minicamp in the spring with a minor strained hamstring, but KPRC's Aaron Wilson reports that Noel has made a full recovery and is ready for training camp this week. The Texans also drafted another receiver in the second round in Jayden Higgins back in April. Nico Collins is the team's unquestioned WR1, while they also have Christian Kirk in the fold in 2025, so it might be difficult for Noel to see notable targets in his first year in the NFL. The 22-year-old stands at only 5-foot-10, but he makes up for his small size with excellent athleticism. The Iowa State product could work as both a slot receiver and on the outside for Houston, but in terms of his fantasy value, Noel will be much more attractive to those in dynasty/keeper formats this year.
