Who Should I Start? Demarcus Robinson or River Cracraft

Former Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson signed a two-year, $9.5 million deal with the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday that includes $6 million fully guaranteed, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Robinson will remain in the NFC West after spending the last two seasons with the Rams. In 33 regular-season games (21 starts) for L.A., Robinson caught 57 of his 103 targets for 876 yards and 11 touchdowns. The 30-year-old had a career year in 2024, setting career-highs in receiving yards (505) and touchdowns (seven) while catching 31 of his 64 targets over 17 regular-season starts. In the Bay Area, he'll help make up for the loss of Deebo Samuel Sr., who was traded to the Commanders. Fantasy managers should definitely expect regression in the touchdown department, and he's likely to open the year as the No. 4 behind Brandon Aiyuk (knee), Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall, depending on Aiyuk's recovery from a torn ACL.

The Seattle Seahawks announced on Friday that they have signed free-agent wide receiver River Cracraft to an undisclosed deal. The Seahawks continue to add receiver depth this offseason after releasing veteran Tyler Lockett and trading DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cracraft will merely be providing depth at the position behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The 30-year-old veteran and former undrafted free agent out of Washington State heads to the NFC West after spending the last three years with the Miami Dolphins, where he caught only 25 passes on 35 targets for 289 yards and three touchdowns in 29 games (one start). In his seven seasons in the NFL, Cracraft has 32 receptions, 374 yards and three touchdowns on 46 targets in 53 games (two starts). He will continue to be off the fantasy radar in all leagues in 2025 in Seattle.
