Who Should I Start? Robert Woods or Jalin Hyatt

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed veteran free-agent wide receiver Robert Woods to a one-year, $2 million deal on Monday, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Woods will give the Steelers a new target and a strong locker-room presence for whoever end up being their starting quarterback in 2025. The 33-year-old former Super Bowl champion will be competing for a roster spot in training camp this summer as receiving depth behind starters DK Metcalf and George Pickens. Even if Woods were able to somehow beat out the likes of Calvin Austin III and Roman Wilson for the WR3 job in Pittsburgh, he's probably not going to be attractive in most fantasy leagues given the team's QB situation. The former second-rounder by the Buffalo Bills in 2013 out of USC only mustered 20 catches for 203 yards and no touchdowns in 15 games (four starts) for the Houston Texans in 2024.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt reported recently on the Giants Huddle podcast that he's transformed his body ahead of his third pro season. "I played at like 170, 171 last year, I'm about 194, 195 now," said Hyatt. "I felt like that was one of the things that I needed to work on from last season, just felt weak. So I just had to get stronger." The 23-year-old also noted that he's had conversations with head coach Brian Daboll about moving around the formation more in 2025. Hyatt flashed as a deep threat in his rookie season but took a step back last year with the emergence of target-hog Malik Nabers. The Giants could use a solid second option in their passing attack, though one of Hyatt's most intriguing aspects is his 4.4 speed. If he's able to maintain that with an extra 20 pounds of muscle on his frame, a bounce-back campaign isn't out of the question.
