Who Should I Start? Kenny Golladay or Darius Slayton

Free agent wide receiver Kenny Golladay worked out for the New York Jets on Wednesday but will not sign at this time, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. The Jets hosted a few free agents on Wednesday, according to Pelissero, including quarterback Anthony Brown, running back Ellis Merriweather, and wide receivers James Proche and Jeff Smith. Golladay, who was one of the biggest free agent flops in recent memory, will continue to look elsewhere for a new home. The New York Giants released him just two years into a four-year, $72 million deal back in March. He's still just 29 years old and posted back-to-back 1000-yard seasons in 2018 and 2019 with the Detroit Lions so he could get another shot elsewhere.

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton continued his impressive run at the end of the 2023 season, adding five catches for 62 yards and a touchdown to his season-long totals. It's the third straight game in which Slayton has found paydirt. All those touchdowns came from the arm of veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor. With Taylor under center, Slayton became a consistent, dependable fantasy football wide receiver. He finishes the season as the team leader for receiving yards. It's abundantly clear to anyone who has watched a Giants game this season that there's a big need for elite wide receivers. Slayton should be back for Big Blue next season, but he may not maintain his alpha role.
