Who Should I Start? Rondale Moore or Jalen Tolbert

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Rondale Moore (knee) "looks good" and feels "great" coming out of the team's first training camp practice on Wednesday, according to Mark Craig of The Minnesota Star Tribune. Moore missed all of 2024 after suffering a season-ending knee injury during a joint practice last August while playing for the Atlanta Falcons. The 25-year-old played in 17 games for the Arizona Cardinals in 2023, recording 530 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 40 receptions and 28 rush attempts. Moore could be in line for a similar gadget role in Minnesota and also could be called upon to return punts. He's behind Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and Jalen Nailor on the Vikings depth chart at receiver. However, with Addison likely facing a suspension due to an offseason arrest, Moore could get a chance early in the season.

With the addition of wide receiver George Pickens via trade on Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys pass-catcher Jalen Tolbert will now operate as the team's No. 3 wideout in 2025 behind CeeDee Lamb and Pickens. Tolbert could also face competition from KaVontae Turpin for the role, but the 26-year-old should have the leg up for the WR3 job after a career year in 2024 in which he set career-highs in catches (49), targets (79), receiving yards (610) and touchdowns (seven) in 17 games (15 starts). Even in what should be a pass-happy Cowboys offense with quarterback Dak Prescott returning from his hamstring injury, Tolbert just won't have enough volume to make him worthy starting on a weekly basis in most fantasy leagues. However, if one of Lamb or Pickens misses time with an injury, Tolbert will be an attractive waiver-wire pickup.
