Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Travis Hunter

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is showing "improved chemistry" with quarterback Joe Flacco, according to Zac Jackson of The Athletic. Jackson writes that Jeudy had his best practice of the summer last week when the Browns held a joint session with the Carolina Panthers. The 26-year-old had his most productive NFL season in 2024, recording 90 catches for 1,209 yards and four touchdowns in 17 games for Cleveland. Jeudy took off once Jameis Winston replaced Deshaun Watson at quarterback for the Browns, and Flacco profiles similarly to Winston as a high-volume gunslinger at this point in his career. There's a chance that Flacco is replaced by one of the young quarterbacks in Cleveland at some point this season. However, until that happens, Jeudy is a good bet to outperform his early-seventh-round average draft position.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said that "everybody" will play in the preseason opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers. How long the first-team offense stays on the field is to be determined. Coen also added that rookie first-round two-way star Travis Hunter will play both receiver and cornerback in the game. The 22-year-old Heisman Trophy winner was taken second overall by Jacksonville in April, and the Jags have every intention of keeping Hunter as a two-way player in his first year in the NFL. He has focused more on offense in training camp this summer and should immediately be a starter across from Brian Thomas Jr., but it remains to be seen how involved he'll actually be. Hunter has elite athleticism, but playing both sides of the ball in the NFL isn't going to be easy. He could be a boom/bust WR3/flex target in fantasy.
