Who Should I Start? Hunter Renfrow or Jake Bobo

According to NFL.com, Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales says veteran wide receiver Hunter Renfrow is "playing at top form" in camp. While Tetairoa McMillan, Adam Thielen, and Xavier Legette are all expected to be the top three receivers for the Panthers in 2025, Renfrow is making his presence felt in camp and could easily work his way into the rotation more often if he continues to impress. Renfrow had a career year with the Las Vegas Raiders in 2021, where he caught 103 passes for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns. In 2022 and 2023 with the Raiders, he combined for 585 yards and two touchdowns. In 2024, Hunter Renfrow did not play football due to a battle with ulcerative colitis, a medical condition that impacted his weight and energy levels. The Panthers signed him to a one-year contract in 2025, and he appears to be making the most of his opportunities. At this time, he is still not relevant in most fantasy formats, but his presence could hinder the ceiling of Thielen and Legette should they lose opportunities to Renfrow if he makes the team.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jake Bobo should be the No. 3 pass catcher in Seattle's offense in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Rams. With both DK Metcalf (knee) and Noah Fant (groin) out, Bobo is next in line. The reality is that the targets will likely be consolidated between wide receivers Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett (oblique), and running back Kenneth Walker III. However, Bobo is a quality young player that we have seen have a solid game or two over the course of his two-year career. Bobo has been buried on the depth chart behind a bevy of high-end pass catchers in Seattle. He is a large receiver who could be active around the red zone with no Metcalf or Fant to occupy that area. He could be worth a flyer in deeper leagues because he should see a handful of targets in a game that projects to have a lot of passing volume on both sides.
