Who Should I Start? Mike Evans or Jerry Jeudy

Saturday, July 12, 2:22 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is entering the final year of his two-year, $41 million deal in 2025, and The Athletic's Dan Pompei writes that the team could have a difficult time retaining the future Hall of Famer beyond this season, especially at a similar price to what they just re-signed Chris Godwin at. Despite being close to turning 32 years old, Evans hasn't shown signs of slowing down, posting 1,000 yards receiving in 2024 for the 11th straight season while also scoring 11 touchdowns. Tampa certainly doesn't want to lose one of the greatest players in franchise history who is also highly respected in the locker room, but it remains to be seen how this will play out following the 2025 season after they took wideout Emeka Egbuka in the first round this year. For fantasy purposes, Evans is a high-end WR2.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has emerged as the team's clear-cut No. 1 receiver entering 2025. The former first-rounder broke out last season with 90 catches for 1,229 yards and four touchdowns. Despite leading the league in pass attempts, Cleveland ranked just 22nd in passing yards, exposing inefficiencies in the quarterback room. Enter Joe Flacco, who brings much-needed accuracy and stability to the offense. With Flacco under center, Jeudy should see even more consistent production. Diontae Johnson and Cedric Tillman will compete for the WR2 role, but Jeudy remains the focal point in Cleveland's passing attack.
