Who Should I Start? Deebo Samuel or Parris Campbell

The San Francisco 49ers have been in trade rumors regarding star wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk all offseason, but NFL insider Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports the team has also talked with teams about trading fellow star wideout Deebo Samuel. Russini said one of the teams the 49ers have talked with currently holds a top-10 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, so a blockbuster deal could be in the works. Aiyuk is reportedly asking for more money than the 49ers are willing to give him, while Samuel has been in the trade rumor circles for multiple seasons. With high-priced assets like George Kittle, Christian McCaffrey, Nick Bosa, and Fred Warner on the roster, the organization will have to make moves in order to re-sign quarterback Brock Purdy in the near future. If one of the wideouts is traded, they should retain plenty of fantasy value with their new team.

Former New York Giants wide receiver Parris Campbell reached an agreement on an undisclosed one-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday, according to sources. Campbell had a career-high 623 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 63 receptions in his fourth and final year with the Indianapolis Colts in 2022 before joining the Giants in 2023. He disappointed with the G-Men, catching only 20 of 27 targets for 104 yards and no touchdowns in 12 games (three starts) last year. The 26-year-old former second-round pick by the Colts in 2019 out of Ohio State will head to Philadelphia and could start out of the slot for the Eagles in 2024 behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Still, with tight end Dallas Goedert heavily involved as a pass-catcher in this offense, Campbell will be the team's fourth receiving option, at best.
