Who Should I Start? DeVonta Smith or Trey Palmer

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has agreed to a three-year $75 million contract extension that includes $51 million in guaranteed money. The organization also picked up his fifth-year option, so he is now under contract through the 2028 NFL season. Despite playing alongside All-Pro wideout A.J. Brown, Smith has been spectacular since entering the league in 2021. The former Heisman Trophy winner has racked up 240 receptions for 3,178 yards and 19 touchdowns through his first three pro campaigns. Smith is just 25 years old, so he should be in the thick of his prime through the duration of his new contract. He remains a WR2 in fantasy football moving forward.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer has found the end zone in two of his last three games. Last week, Palmer hauled in one of his two targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The rookie wideout was quiet in the game outside of his huge score. It's worth noting that Palmer has 40 receiving yards or more in three of his last four games. However, he's still the third option on this offense behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin (knee) who is currently on the injury report. If Godwin sits, Palmer would likely see a bigger role in the offense. Otherwise, Palmer will likely remain an afterthought as he only has three total receptions in his last two games.
