Who Should I Start? River Cracraft or Deon Cain

Friday, March 21, 10:31 PM

The Seattle Seahawks announced on Friday that they have signed free-agent wide receiver River Cracraft to an undisclosed deal. The Seahawks continue to add receiver depth this offseason after releasing veteran Tyler Lockett and trading DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cracraft will merely be providing depth at the position behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The 30-year-old veteran and former undrafted free agent out of Washington State heads to the NFC West after spending the last three years with the Miami Dolphins, where he caught only 25 passes on 35 targets for 289 yards and three touchdowns in 29 games (one start). In his seven seasons in the NFL, Cracraft has 32 receptions, 374 yards and three touchdowns on 46 targets in 53 games (two starts). He will continue to be off the fantasy radar in all leagues in 2025 in Seattle.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Deon Cain caught 6-of-9 targets and gained 62 yards during the team's 27-13 preseason loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Philadelphia played almost exclusively backups during the preseason finale in an attempt to figure out who would make the final roster after cutdowns, with the 27-year-old looking like the most complete receiver Thursday night. Tyrie Cleveland was the standout through the first few weeks of the preseason. However, he was waived due to injury, leaving the likes of Cain, Joseph Ngata, Devon Allen, and the newly signed Freddie Swain fighting for one of the final wide receiver spots on the roster. After last night's performances, Cain and Swain will likely be the final two in contention. Whoever is cut will likely revert to the practice squad.
