Who Should I Start? DeSean Jackson or Phillip Dorsett

Veteran wide receiver DeSean Jackson is retiring from football after a 15-year NFL career that featured three Pro Bowls, one All-Pro selection, and seven seasons of at least 900 yards receiving. The 2008 second-round pick spent time with the Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Los Angeles Rams, Las Vegas Raiders, and Baltimore Ravens. Last season, he totaled 153 yards with Baltimore. Overall, he posted 641 receptions for 11,263 yards, and 58 receiving touchdowns. He also recorded four rushing touchdowns and four punt return touchdowns.

Free agent defensive back Jamal Adams and wide receiver Phillip Dorsett signed a contract with the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday. Adams is a three-time Pro Bowl safety and is reunited with Pete Carroll in Las Vegas. The 29-year-old reportedly is in great shape heading into camp and did have some of his better years while playing under Carroll in Seattle. Adams racked up seven tackles over five games with the Lions and Titans last season. The former New York Jet provides the Raiders more depth in the secondary but is not on the fantasy radar for IDP leagues. As for Dorsett, he hasn't caught a pass in the NFL since 2023 and will need to have a standout camp to make the roster. In his career, the 32-year-old has racked up 151 receptions for 2,001 yards and 12 touchdowns with six different teams over eight NFL seasons. Dorsett is a non-factor in fantasy, even if he does make the Raiders as a depth piece.
