Who Should I Start? Jalin Hyatt or Jalen Royals

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt "mentally checked out at points last season after clashing with the coaching staff and upper management," according to Connor Hughes of SNY. Hughes opined that Hyatt should have played more than he did last season, and that the young receiver seems to be stuck in the doghouse. Moving forward, Hyatt's speed and athleticism make him an intriguing pass-catching option in an offense led by veteran quarterback Russell Wilson. However, if he can't find himself in the coaching staff's good graces, he may have trouble seeing the field or even making the roster. As it stands, Hyatt projects as the team's No. 4 receiver, but he could face competition from depth players or a potential free agent addition, such as Gabe Davis.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Jalen Royals appears to have a chance to be involved in the offense during the 2025-26 campaign sooner rather than later. "He can make an impact immediately," said Greg Castillo, Kansas City's western regional scout. "He can separate with the short route and he can separate with the intermediate route. He's got a ton of versatility. The 2025 No. 133 overall pick had a quality collegiate career, totaling 21 touchdowns in his final two seasons at Utah State. He also averaged 15.2 yards per catch during that span. The Chiefs have an experienced wide receiver group, consisting of Rashee Rice (knee), Marquise Brown, Xavier Worthy, and JuJu Smith-Schuster. In addition, tight end Travis Kelce will return for another season. But considering nagging injuries were a theme for the receiving corps last season, Royals is someone who may have a shot to contribute earlier than anticipated. Although his redraft stock isn't high, he's someone dynasty managers can consider later in rookie drafts.
