Who Should I Start? Jahan Dotson or Malachi Corley

The Philadelphia Eagles declined the fifth-year option on wide receiver Jahan Dotson on Wednesday, a source told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. It means that the former 16th overall pick of the Washington Commanders in 2022 out of Penn State will head into a contract year in 2025. The 25-year-old pass-catcher spent the first two years of his career with Washington before joining the division-rival Eagles in 2024 and winning a Super Bowl with them. He was much more productive in his first two years in D.C., as he caught just 19 of 33 targets for 216 yards and no touchdowns with Philly in 17 regular-season games (six starts). The Eagles just had two many other weapons on offense for Dotson to really make a mark production-wise as the No. 4 aerial target behind wideouts A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith and tight end Dallas Goedert. Barring an injury to Brown or Smith in 2025, Dotson will be off the fantasy radar in most leagues.

New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley was a third-round selection in the 2024 NFL Draft out of Western Kentucky, and former general manager Joe Douglas notably traded up to select him. However, the 23-year-old appeared in just nine games last season, catching three of his six targets for 16 yards. He notably let go of the football before crossing the plane of the end zone against the Houston Texans in primetime and did not have much of a role in Aaron Rodgers' offense thereafter. According to Nick Faria of Jets X-Factor, Corley could face an uphill battle to earn playing time. "The problem with Corley is that all of his tape comes from college," Faria wrote. "He's still a very raw prospect, and New York's new regime has no loyalty to him as a player. He has to earn every bit of playing time he could receive." Despite the lack of high-end pass-catchers behind Garrett Wilson, it sounds like Corley has not impressed thus far this offseason. He remains off the fantasy football radar in traditionally fantasy leagues until further notice.
