Who Should I Start? Phillip Dorsett or Trent Sherfield Sr.

Free agent defensive back Jamal Adams and wide receiver Phillip Dorsett signed a contract with the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday. Adams is a three-time Pro Bowl safety and is reunited with Pete Carroll in Las Vegas. The 29-year-old reportedly is in great shape heading into camp and did have some of his better years while playing under Carroll in Seattle. Adams racked up seven tackles over five games with the Lions and Titans last season. The former New York Jet provides the Raiders more depth in the secondary but is not on the fantasy radar for IDP leagues. As for Dorsett, he hasn't caught a pass in the NFL since 2023 and will need to have a standout camp to make the roster. In his career, the 32-year-old has racked up 151 receptions for 2,001 yards and 12 touchdowns with six different teams over eight NFL seasons. Dorsett is a non-factor in fantasy, even if he does make the Raiders as a depth piece.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Trent Sherfield Sr. continued to impress in the team's 30-9 win over the hosting San Francisco 49ers in the preseason opener on Saturday night. Sherfield caught all three of his targets for a team-high 73 receiving yards and also found the end zone on a pretty 36-yard catch in the front corner of the end zone. The 29-year-old has done nothing but impress during training camp practices and carried that over into the first preseason game. He should also contribute on special teams for the Broncos this year, but Sherfield's work already this summer should make him a lock for the 53-man roster going into Week 1 for at least WR and special-teams depth. The seven-year NFL veteran caught only eight of his nine targets for 83 yards and one touchdown in 17 games (one start) for Minnesota a year ago.
