Who Should I Start? Parris Campbell or Darius Slayton

The Philadelphia Eagles signed wide receiver Parris Campbell from their practice squad to the active 53-man roster on Tuesday. In additional moves, the team signed linebacker Nick Morrow and wide receiver Elijah Cooks to their practice squad, released wide receiver Joseph Ngata from the practice squad and placed linebacker Nakobe Dean (knee) on Injured Reserve. Campbell will merely serve as receiver depth for the team's upcoming Divisional Round game on Sunday versus the visiting Los Angeles Rams and won't be on the fantasy radar at all behind the likes of A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson and rookie Johnny Wilson. The 27-year-old former Indianapolis Colts wideout has only played in five games this year in his first year in Philly and has caught six of his eight targets for 30 yards and one touchdown.

Wide receiver Darius Slayton is the New York Giants' top free agent this offseason, but ESPN New York's Jordan Raanan writes that Slayton isn't a candidate to be franchise-tagged with the number being well over $20 million in 2025. Raanan compares Slayton more to Darnell Mooney, who got $13 million per year in free agency last year. The 28-year-old has proven that he's not a No. 1 receiver type that would typically command a franchise tag, and the last time New York let him test the market, they ended up re-signing him on a two-year, $12 million deal after the 2022 season. In his sixth year with the G-Men in 2024, Slayton had just 39 catches on 71 targets for 573 yards (the second-lowest total of his career) and only two touchdowns in 16 games (13 starts). Given the Giants' uncertainty at the QB position, Slayton is probably better off going elsewhere in 2025.
