Who Should I Start? Dyami Brown or Xavier Legette

Monday, March 10, 3:39 PM

The Jacksonville Jaguars have agreed to terms on a one-year, $10 million contract worth up to $12 million with former Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. The 2021 third-round pick out of North Carolina caught fewer than 15 passes and posted fewer than 200 years in each of his first three NFL seasons, but he emerged in 2024 in his final season with Washington. Brown posted 30 receptions for 308 yards and one touchdown during the regular season before tallying 14 receptions for 229 yards and a score in three postseason games. He's now headed to Duval County to catch passes from Trevor Lawrence, but his fantasy football upside is likely limited behind Brian Thomas Jr. The team will likely look to add more pass-catchers this offseason after letting Christian Kirk and Evan Engram go.

At the Annual League Meeting on Tuesday, Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales compared wide receiver Xavier Legette to Pittsburgh Steelers wideout DK Metcalf. The Panthers reportedly checked in on Metcalf before the Seahawks traded him to Pittsburgh, but Carolina's head coach touted one of his own when asked about him. "I think we got that guy," Canales said, "I think it's Xavier." The 24-year-old flashed in 2024 but was mostly underwhelming and struggled with drops (eight on 81 targets). However, Canales believes we could see big things from Legette with an entire offseason under his belt. He also noted the second-year wideout's work ethic. "You can't get him out of the building. He's there early and late...he's doing all the right things, and with the hard work, it will pay off." The South Carolina native has a bit to go before he's fantasy-relevant, but the vote of confidence from his head coach is encouraging. He sits favorably on the team's depth chart for now, but that could change later this month after the draft.
