Who Should I Start? Kendrick Bourne or River Cracraft

Sunday, March 10, 9:22 PM

Wide receiver Kendrick Bourne agreed to a new deal to remain in New England. The contract is for three years, and he'll be eligible to earn up to $33 million. The 28-year-old amassed 406 yards and four touchdowns off 37 catches last season. However, despite appearing on track for a career year, Bourne suffered a torn ACL during the AFC East battle with the Miami Dolphins in Week 8. Fortunately, he should be ready to go for the 2024-25 campaign. But with a new head coach in the equation and Mac Jones out of the picture, Bourne could have a tough time finding his rhythm. His knee injury is also something fantasy managers should keep in the back of their heads. Yet, while reaching for him during fantasy drafts heading into the new season isn't recommended, he's worth grabbing if he's available later than expected.

Free-agent wide receiver River Cracraft announced on social media that he re-signed an undisclosed deal with the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday. Cracraft will return to Miami in 2024 for his third year with the team. In the last two seasons in South Beach, he had 18 receptions on 26 targets for 223 yards and three touchdowns in 21 regular-season games (one start) while providing receiver depth behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Erik Ezukanma. The 29-year-old has had his share of injuries as well and will be completely off the fantasy radar this fall. Cracraft entered the NFL in 2018 with the Denver Broncos as an undrafted free agent out of Washington State and has 25 career catches for 308 yards and three scores on 37 targets in his six NFL campaigns.
