Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Marvin Mims Jr.

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson said that he signed with the team this offseason because of second-year wide receiver Malik Nabers. "I came here because of him. I really wanted to play with someone who is special like him," Wilson said. Nabers led the Giants in receiving in 2024 in his first year in the league with 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns on 109 catches (170 targets) despite subpar quarterback play and two missed games due to a concussion. While the aging Wilson might not be much of an upgrade from what the Giants trotted out there last year after Daniel Jones was cut, he does excel on the deep ball and should target Nabers heavily through the air. Nabers proved last year he is a clear WR1 in fantasy, regardless of who is throwing him passes. The LSU product and former first-rounder has the ability to take over any game.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. is aiming for another trip to the Pro Bowl. "When you're hitting a streak, why not keep it going," said Mims, referring to his two Pro Bowl selections in his first two years in the National Football League. "I'm excited." Without question, his contributions as a return specialist can't be denied. However, fantasy managers hope he'll make more noise for his accomplishments on the receiving end. The 23-year-old looked better in his sophomore campaign, finishing with 39 receptions for 503 yards and six touchdowns. The Broncos added J.K. Dobbins and Evan Engram this offseason, two players who will command attention from second-year signal-caller Bo Nix. Courtland Sutton is still on the roster and is coming off his first 1,000-yard receiving season since 2019. With that said, it's still reasonable to assume Mims could remain involved and improve even more this season, so he'll be worth considering in the later rounds of fantasy drafts.
