Who Should I Start? Jalen Reagor or Brandon Aiyuk

The New England Patriots are re-signing wide receiver Jalen Reagor to a one-year, $1.3 million deal that included $442,500 in guarantees. The 2020 No. 21 overall pick by the Philadelphia Eagles has hauled in 79 of his 147 targets for 937 yards and four touchdowns through the first 56 games of his career. After four NFL seasons of lackluster production, he's unlikely to break out anytime soon. However, New England has one of the worst wide receiver groups in the NFL, so he could see plenty of playing time if the organization doesn't bring in significant updates via free agency or the 2024 NFL Draft. For now, Reagor is not on the fantasy radar.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has been in trade rumors ever since the team lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII. Although general manager John Lynch has seemingly tried to shut down trade rumors, NFL insider Michael Silver said a potential trade is still "very much in play." "To this point, the 49ers have asked for a 2024 first-round pick," Silver wrote. An executive for another team reportedly said the asking price is too high, while another league general manager said he believes the 49ers might ultimately accept a second-round selection. Aiyuk's camp is reportedly asking for an average salary of around $25 million, a price that San Francisco has been unwilling to offer. The 26-year-old could be a true No. 1 wide receiver for another organization, but the target competition on the 49ers roster has made it more difficult for him to be a consistent producer.
