Dynasty Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Player Outlooks

Marquise Brown, Philadelphia Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles are signing former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown to a one-year deal worth up to $6.5 million on Tuesday, multiple sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Hollywood played in just two games in his first year with the Chiefs in 2024 due to an injury, but he rebounded last year to catch 49 passes on 74 targets for 587 yards and five touchdowns in 16 games (six starts). The 28-year-old pass-catcher has been on the decline since posting his only 1,000-yard season back in 2021 with the Baltimore Ravens.

However, Brown could have a decent role in Philly behind DeVonta Smith if the Eagles trade A.J. Brown this offseason. Brown's 2026 fantasy football value will depend largely on whether Brown ends up in another uniform heading into next season. For his career, Brown has averaged 11.6 yards per catch and has 4,322 receiving yards and 33 touchdowns on 371 catches in his seven NFL seasons.

Jaylen Waddle, Denver Broncos

The Denver Broncos are acquiring wide receiver Jaylen Waddle and a fourth-round draft pick (11th in the round) in 2026 from the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday in exchange for a first-round pick (30th overall) along with late third- and fourth-round picks (30th in each round) in this year's draft, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. It's a pretty big upgrade for quarterback Bo Nix and Denver's offense, as Waddle could end up leading the Broncos' pass-catchers in targets if he can stay healthy in 2026.

It gives Nix another trusted weapon to throw to besides Courtland Sutton. The 27-year-old Waddle, who was drafted in the first round (sixth overall) in 2021 out of Alabama, started his career with three straight 1,000-yard seasons and led the NFL with 18.1 yards per catch in his sophomore season.

He'll be a reliable target for Nix as the Broncos' offense looks to take the next step. It's a good landing spot for Waddle, although he'll definitely have more competition for targets than if he had stayed in Miami. His arrival in Denver is bad news for the dynasty values of both Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant.

Drake London, Atlanta Falcons

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London played in a career-low 12 games in 2025 due to a knee injury, but he still managed to catch 68 passes for 919 yards and seven touchdowns on 112 targets in his fourth year in the NFL. That was good enough for him to finish as the WR17 in half-PPR scoring. Had the 24-year-old not been injured, he was on track for a career-best season while working with both quarterbacks, Michael Penix Jr. (knee) and Kirk Cousins.

The former eighth overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft out of USC has had at least 866 receiving yards in his four NFL seasons and will enter the 2026 campaign as Atlanta's clear WR1 in a new offense run by head coach Kevin Stefanski. On talent alone, London has clear WR1 upside in fantasy, but he could make for more of a volatile No. 2 given the uncertainty as to whether Penix will be ready for the start of the season. London's fantasy stock will surely take a hit if it's Tua Tagovailoa under center for the Falcons in Week 1 this fall.

Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua took his game to new heights in 2025, recording 129 catches for 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns on 166 targets across 16 games played. The 24-year-old led the NFL in receptions and receiving first downs despite missing a contest and is now the league's all-time leader in receiving yards per game (95.3). With the Rams' elite play-caller/quarterback combination of Sean McVay and Matthew Stafford likely back in the mix in Los Angeles in 2026, Nacua should be well-positioned for another monster season.

There's little doubt that Nacua is a fantasy WR1, so the real question is where he ranks among the truly elite players at his position. In dynasty startups, Nacua's combination of age and proven production track record makes him a viable choice as the number one wide receiver off the board. If he can stay healthy, Nacua seems like a safe bet to be among the league leaders in PPR points per game every year for the remainder of the decade.

Marvin Harrison Jr., Arizona Cardinals

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. had another underwhelming season in 2025. Once viewed as a near lock to succeed in the NFL, Harrison has been one of the biggest disappointments in dynasty fantasy football. He was the overall WR30 as a rookie in 2024, and he followed it up with 41 catches, 608 yards, and four touchdowns across 12 games in 2025. He fell to WR49 last year and, more importantly, lost the grasp on his No. 1 receiver job in Arizona. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett built a terrific rapport with breakout receiver Michael Wilson, leaving Harrison in more of a de facto No. 2 role.

Brissett is expected to return as the Cardinals' starting quarterback in 2026, and Wilson is also back as the potential top receiver. As a result, dynasty managers should be prepared for another subpar season from Harrison. Even if he manages to stay healthy for a full 17 games, he's firmly entrenched as a WR3/flex option, falling short of the lofty WR1 expectations that were attached to him in the 2024 NFL Draft.
