Who Should I Start? Michael Gallup or Hunter Renfrow

Thursday, March 20, 1:39 PM

The Washington Commanders announced on Thursday that they signed free-agent wide receiver Michael Gallup to an undisclosed deal. Gallup was drafted in the third round (81st overall) by the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 out of Colorado State and spent the first six years of his NFL career in Dallas before signing last offseason with the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old announced his retirement before ever playing in a game with Vegas before deciding he wanted to come back in 2025. He'll now return to the NFC East, where he'll serve as receiving depth behind Terry McLaurin, Deebo Samuel Sr. and Noah Brown, at the very least. It's a poor landing spot for Gallup potentially returning to fantasy relevance, as he'll also be competing with Luke McCaffrey and K.J. Osborn for playing time. Fantasy managers can probably avoid Gallup in drafts this fall.

In addition to visiting with his former team, the Las Vegas Raiders, free-agent wide receiver Hunter Renfrow took a visit with the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Renfrow has 269 catches for 2,884 yards and 17 touchdowns in his five NFL seasons with the Raiders but did not play at all in 2024 after Vegas released him last March. The 29-year-old pass-catcher was a first-time Pro Bowler back in 2021, when he had 103 receptions for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 games (nine starts). If Renfrow were to land in Carolina, he'd provide the Panthers with an experienced veteran that would serve in a depth role behind the likes of Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen, Jalen Coker and David Moore.
