Who Should I Start? Jalen Reagor or DeVonta Smith

Tuesday, March 12, 9:56 AM

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.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has agreed to a three-year $75 million contract extension that includes $51 million in guaranteed money. The organization also picked up his fifth-year option, so he is now under contract through the 2028 NFL season. Despite playing alongside All-Pro wideout A.J. Brown, Smith has been spectacular since entering the league in 2021. The former Heisman Trophy winner has racked up 240 receptions for 3,178 yards and 19 touchdowns through his first three pro campaigns. Smith is just 25 years old, so he should be in the thick of his prime through the duration of his new contract. He remains a WR2 in fantasy football moving forward.
