Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Jerry Jeudy

The Athletic's Nicki Jhabvala writes that "no one sounds happier" about new offensive coordinator David Blough's scheme than Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin. In his seven seasons in Washington, McLaurin has played for three other offensive coordinators with 13 starting quarterbacks. And in many of those circumstances, there have been plenty of questions as to why McLaurin wasn't involved more. But in Blough's offense, the 30-year-old said he'll "be used all over." "I think the multitude of formations and route combinations is going to give all of us flexibility to move around the formation, keep the defense on their toes, and have a lot of routes that may look similar at the stem but different at the top," McLaurin said last week. The former third-rounder in 2019 out of Ohio State couldn't get off the ground in 2025 due to injuries to both himself and QB Jayden Daniels, and he finished with career lows across the board in catches (38), yards (582), and touchdowns (three) in just 10 starts. Scary Terry could make for a great value pick for fantasy managers in 2026, though, with WR2 upside in a new scheme as he looks to bounce back in his eighth year in the NFL.
