Who Should I Start? Jayden Reed or Tre Harris

Green Bay Packers passing-game coordinator Jason Vrable said that wide receiver Jayden Reed is up to 199 pounds (up from 185 as a rookie) and has been one of the leaders of the receiver group this offseason. Vrable said that Reed has been "helping Matthew Golden with every single play." The 25-year-old was on pace for his first 1,000-yard season in 2024 in his sophomore campaign in the first half before fading down the stretch and then suffering a dislocated shoulder in the wild-card playoff loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Despite the team adding Golden and Savion Williams in this year's draft, the Packers still view Reed as their "top receiver." However, until we see it, the slot wideout's volume could be volatile, even with Christian Watson (knee) potentially miss half the season. Reed has the potential for a breakout, but he should be viewed as a boom/bust WR3/flex.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre Harris, who was selected with the No. 55 overall pick in the second round of the 2025 NFL draft last Friday, is expected to fill the team's X position in his first year in the league. Ladd McConkey broke out in his rookie campaign in 2024 in the slot, but the Chargers needed a big-bodied receiver who could stretch the field vertically outside the numbers and threaten defenses with contested-catch ability. That is what Harris does well. The 6-foot-2, 205-pounder from Ole Miss had 60 catches for 1,030 yards and seven touchdowns in eight games in 2024 and should be a nice downfield and red-zone weapon for quarterback Justin Herbert. Given the question marks surrounding Mike Williams and former first-rounder Quentin Johnston, Harris will have the opportunity to be the team's WR2 in his first year in 2025. It's a positive landing spot for an immediate fantasy impact.
