Who Should I Start? Michael Gallup or Romeo Doubs

The Washington Commanders released wide receiver Michael Gallup on Monday, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Gallup was unable to make Washington's 53-man roster heading into the regular season in his comeback bid after retiring in 2024 shortly after signing with the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old veteran could return to the Commanders on their practice squad, but if he signs with another team for the regular season, he will merely be competing for a spot on the active game-day roster and won't be on the fantasy radar at all. The former third-rounder (81st overall) by the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 out of Colorado State caught 34 of 57 targets for 418 yards and only two touchdowns in 17 games (13 starts) in 2023 in his final year in Dallas. Gallup's best season came in Year 2, when he put up a 66-1,107-6 line on 113 targets in 14 games (12 starts).

Despite a lack of gaudy numbers in the box score, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs continues to lead the team's wideouts in participation and production. Quarterback Jordan Love's MO is spreading the ball around, but Doubs leads his fellow WRs in yards (96) and targets (nine). Moreover, he holds the edge in snaps, beating out his next closest teammate by over 20 (Matthew Golden). With Jayden Reed's (clavicle) collarbone fracture set to hold him out for a few months, Doubs' path to an elevated number of looks becomes clearer. Green Bay is calling a run an even 50% of the time, so the 25-year-old's target floor is lower than most teams' No. 1 wideouts. Nonetheless, Love still has a gunslinger mentality and is one of the league's more renowned signal-callers.
