Dynasty Fantasy Football Risers
Michael Wilson, WR, Cardinals
Back in 2023, the Arizona Cardinals took a chance on a young receiver out of Stanford with the 94th overall selection in the third round. Back then, Michael Wilson went viral, telling anyone who would listen that the Cardinals got the “Steal of the Draft.” Until recently, Wilson hadn’t really backed that statement up.
With Marvin Harrison Jr. sidelined, Jacoby Brissett has maximized Wilson's opportunities. From Week 11 through 15, Wilson led all fantasy receivers with 23.1 points per game. He topped 16 points in four of five games, with two games above 33 points, showcasing a sharp improvement in both target share and high-ceiling performance during Brissett's run as quarterback.
Wilson’s production has been directly tied to Brissett, who has finished as a top-12 fantasy quarterback in nine straight contests heading into Week 16. Now, in those five previous contests before Week 16, Brissett has peppered his targets. Trey McBride is second in the NFL over that period with 52 targets, while Wilson, once again, leads the way with an astonishing 67. For those keeping track at home, that averages out to 13.4 targets per game.
Wilson's jump in production is closely tied to his high-volume role. He converted 67 targets into 44 receptions for 535 yards during the stretch—demonstrating growth in both reliability and efficiency. His 50.8% air yard share and 803 total air yards show untapped upside if he can improve on his catch conversion rate.
When a receiver is being targeted as heavily as Wilson has been and then being as productive as he has been, we are talking 11.84 yards per target, 16.44 yards per reception, and 4.97 yards per route run, you are going to climb the fantasy charts in a hurry.
Kyle Monangai, RB, Bears
Entering Week 16, Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai had churned out 681 rushing yards on 146 carries. Only Quinshon Judkins (805), TreVeyon Henderson (773), and Ashton Jeanty (700) have been more productive runners as rookies than the seventh-round selection out of Rutgers.
From Week 9 through Week 15, Monangai has quietly made his presence known in fantasy circles as a solid flex option, averaging 12 fantasy points per game, while his running mate D’Andre Swift garners many of the headlines with his 13.4 fantasy points per game over that same seven-game sample. During the one game Swift missed over that period, Monangai dropped 22.8 fantasy points on the Bengals when he ran for 176 yards on 26 rushing attempts and hauled in three passes for 22 receiving yards.
As the Bears continue their push towards the postseason, the expectation is that the touches will begin to tilt towards the veteran, Swift. That said, Monangai has done enough to justify his fantasy ascension and, regardless, offers fantasy managers flex appeal with RB1 upside.
When Chicago decides to move on from Swift, they have their next bellcow back in the waiting. Until then, we’ve seen both Monangai and Swift each produce with the other on the field. Back in Week 13, the Bears duo each topped 100 yards on the ground, becoming the first pair of Bears running backs to do so since Walter Payton and Matt Suhey accomplished the feat in 1985.
Dynasty Fantasy Football Fallers
Alvin Kamara, RB, Saints
We’ve all heard it before: Father Time comes for us all, and he’s undefeated. A running back's shelf life in the NFL is short to begin with; even the elite backs play declining around the time they transition into their 30s. Alvin Kamara was drafted in 2017, and in July, the Saints' All-Pro ball carrier turned 30.
Heading into Week 16, Kamara’s status is once again questionable (ankle/knee), having missed the three previous contests due to injury. However, even before suffering his latest injury, Kamara wasn’t exactly an option fantasy managers were able to trust every week.
From Weeks 7 to 12, Kamara dropped to RB50 status, averaging just 6.2 PPR points. He managed only 3.27 yards per carry and a modest 35.5% rushing success rate. His explosive run rate fell to 2.1% and his 1.79 yards after contact per attempt ranked just 79th, signaling pronounced drop-offs in his once-elite skill set.
David Njoku, TE, Browns
There will be plenty of offseason talks in Cleveland as to whether or not the Browns should bring back David Njoku for a 10th season.
Not only has Njoku missed several games over the past two seasons, but the emergence of rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. has made Njoku expendable. Looking at the two tight ends' head-to-head numbers, it’s not even close when assigning value to the position. Njoku has a 53.6% route participation, accounting for an 8.8% air-yard share, a 10.5% target share, 44 targets, 33 receptions, a receiving-market share of 12.2%, and a 1.14 yards-per-route run rate.
As for the rookie, in the same statistical categories, Fannin has earned a 67.6% route participation, an 18.8% air yard share, a 20.1% target share, been targeted 97 times, caught 66 passes, resulted in a receiving market share of 24.7%, and earned a 1.81 yards per route run rate. People lie, numbers don’t, and the numbers here are damning and suggest Njoku’s future in Cleveland is uncertain.
