Who Should I Start? Drake London or Caleb Williams

The Atlanta Falcons exercised the fifth-year option on wide receiver Drake London on Wednesday, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. This was a no-brainer decision after London posted career-highs in catches (100), targets (158), receiving yards (1,271) and touchdowns (nine) in 17 starts in 2024 in his third year in the NFL. The 23-year-old eighth overall pick in 2022 will now be under contract with the Falcons through the 2026 season, but he could sign a long-term extension well before that if he has another big year in 2025. It was impressive performance for London last year, especially when considering that quarterback Kirk Cousins fell flat in his first year back from an Achilles tear and was benched for rookie Michael Penix Jr. late in the season. It's good news that he caught 22 passes for 352 yards and two TDs in the final three games with Penix. London is a surefire WR1 in fantasy.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is taking part in voluntary organized team activities this week, but he was intercepted twice in a rough day for the offense at practice on Wednesday. Williams had a minor surgery in the offseason to remove a cyst from his right wrist, but he's back on the practice field and shouldn't have any issues being ready for his second NFL campaign. The 23-year-old former first overall pick out of USC was a disappointment in his first year in the NFL and took a league-high 68 sacks in 17 starts. It didn't help that Chicago fired head coach Matt Eberflus and offensive coordinator Shane Waldron midway through the season. Williams finished with 3,541 passing yards, 20 touchdowns and six interceptions. While Williams is by no means on the QB1 radar in fantasy, he should be able to improve in Year 2 under new head coach Ben Johnson in an offense with plenty of playmakers.
