Who Should I Start? Michael Gallup or Cam Akers

Wednesday, March 20, 7:26 PM

The Baltimore Ravens have reportedly scheduled a visit with free-agent wide receiver Michael Gallup. The veteran wideout was recently cut by the Dallas Cowboys after another quiet season in 2023. Despite that, Gallup appears to have multiple interested suitors as the Carolina Panthers have scheduled a visit as well. The 28-year-old hasn't produced a season with more than 445 receiving yards since the 2020 season. Hopefully, a change of scenery will help Gallup get his career back on track.

The Minnesota Vikings declined to offer a restricted free-agent tender to running back Cam Akers (Achilles), meaning he is a free agent and can negotiate freely with any team. The former second-round pick was an exciting prospect out of Florida State in 2020 but after two Achilles tears in four years in the NFL, his career has struggled to get off the ground. Akers was traded to the Vikings from the Los Angeles Rams early in the 2023 campaign and rushed 38 times for 138 yards and one touchdown before suffering a major Achilles injury. The 24-year-old might get a chance to play elsewhere, but it'll likely be on a cheap, one-year deal. For now, he remains far from the fantasy radar. The majority of skill players do not recover well from an Achilles tear, never mind two.
