Who Should I Start? Mack Hollins or Luke McCaffrey

Monday, March 10, 7:30 PM

The New England Patriots have agreed to a deal with free-agent wide receiver Mack Hollins on Monday. The two sides have agreed on a two-year, $8.4 million deal where Hollins can earn up to $10.4 million in total. This is a nice landing spot for Hollins who was previously coached by Pats offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels while in Las Vegas. Hollins hasn't been very impressive on the field outside of his lone season on the Raiders where he hauled in 57 receptions for 690 receiving yards and four touchdown in 2022. He'll be a nice depth piece to go along with DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, and Kendrick Bourne.

Washington Commanders receiver Luke McCaffrey impressed during the team's offseason practices and should have a more meaningful role in 2025, according to Mike Jones of The Athletic. Jones writes that McCaffrey "demonstrated an improved understanding of the playbook and improved confidence." A third-round selection in the 2024 NFL draft, McCaffrey logged just 18 catches for 168 yards and zero touchdowns as a rookie. The Commanders have Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel entrenched atop their depth chart at wide receiver, but there could be playing time available via the WR3 role. Veterans Noah Brown and Michael Gallup, as well as fourth-round rookie Jaylin Lane, are among the names McCaffrey will have to beat out for the job. He'll need to earn consistent playing time to become fantasy-relevant, but it appears as though McCaffrey will have that opportunity.
