Who Should I Start? Deebo Samuel or CeeDee Lamb

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. noted in his introductory conference with reporters via The Associated Press that the team is "getting a motivated Deebo." "I'm just ready to get back to work." said the seventh-year pro. "I'm just ready to get around a group of guys, meet with the players, and we just go from there." The 29-year-old hasn't quite reached the heights of his absurd 1,770-yard, 14-touchdown All-Pro season in 2021. However, he has provided a versatile chess piece in Kyle Shanahan's offenses over the years. The South Carolina product also stated that winning is a motivator for him, and he was impressed with the play of second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels during his first stint in the pros. Samuel Sr. should fit opposite teammate Terry McLaurin nicely, adding another playmaker to deploy in Washington's dynamic offense.

The Dallas Cowboys restructured wide receiver CeeDee Lamb's contract on Tuesday, creating $20 million in salary cap space for 2025, according to ESPN's Todd Archer. Dallas just signed defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa to a lucrative contract extension and is planning to extend Micah Parsons this offseason in the neighborhood of $40 million per year. Restructuring Lamb's deal gives the organization some flexibility with free agency and with the 2025 NFL Draft coming up in the next few weeks and months. Last offseason, Lamb signed a four-year, $136 million contract extension and is coming off his fourth consecutive campaign with at least 1,100 receiving yards.
