Rome Odunze to See Expanded Role in 2026?

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze has shown brilliant flashes throughout his first two seasons, but he has yet to capitalize on the potential that made him the ninth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. With teammate DJ Moore now being shipped to Buffalo via trade, the door is wide open for him claim […]


Ricky Pearsall the Unquestioned WR1 in San Francisco?

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall's early NFL career has been hampered by injuries, resulting in 17 missed games through his first two seasons. However, with major changes expected to reshape the 49ers' receiving corps heading into 2026, the cards are aligned for a healthy Pearsall to take the next step and deliver upon […]


Christian Watson Looking to Build on Late-Season Surge

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson missed the first seven weeks of 2025 with an ACL injury sustained late in 2024, but in his 10 games played in 2025, he delivered a 17-game pace of 60 catches for 1,039 yards and 10 touchdowns, finishing as a top-five fantasy wide receiver three times. Four-year veteran […]


Jacoby Brissett Locked in as Arizona's Starting Quarterback?

Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett took over the starting job in Arizona following the Week 5 foot injury and soft benching of former No. 1 overall pick Kyler Murray. With the team informing Murray on Tuesday that they would be releasing him before the start of the new league year, Brissett is left atop a depth […]


Tyler Warren to See More Targets in 2026?

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren shared an obvious connection with quarterback Daniel Jones that had him squarely in the Offensive Rookie of the Year conversation prior to Jones' season-ending Achilles injury in Week 14. With the team placing the transition tag on Jones on Tuesday, the first domino has fallen in defining the direction […]


Zach Charbonnet to Lead Seattle Backfield When Healthy?

Before tearing his ACL in a Divisional Round win over the 49ers, Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) had seen close to a 50/50 timeshare split with Kenneth Walker III for most of the 2025 season. Walker is now set to test free agency after the team declined to apply their franchise tag before […]


Chiefs Sending Trent McDuffie to Rams in Blockbuster Deal

The Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams are working on a blockbuster trade that would send All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie to Los Angeles in exchange for a massive package of picks, including the Rams' 2026 first-round pick. According to NFL Insider Adam Schefter, the complete deal would see the Rams ship out the 29th […]


Could Josh Downs See More Work with Colts WR Room in Flux?

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs was a popular breakout candidate heading into 2025, but it was ultimately his teammate, Alec Pierce, who took the next step and led the team with his first career 1,000-yard season. With Pierce now facing unrestricted free agency, it seems inevitable that a shakeup is coming to the Colts' […]

Dynasty Fantasy Football Trade Targets: Top Wide Receivers to Buy Low or Sell High in 2026

The Super Bowl is over. Free agency is still weeks away. It's finally time for fantasy football managers to take a breath … Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Was that two breaths? Do you have any idea how far behind schedule you’ve just fallen? Dynasty never sleeps, and oxygen is for casuals. While the rest of your […]


Where is the Most Valuable Landing Spot for Joe Flacco?

After starting games for both the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals in 2025, veteran quarterback Joe Flacco enters 2026 as an unrestricted free agent. The 2008 first-round draft pick, who has now started for six different teams, recently turned 41, but he has no plans to retire anytime soon. While a handful of teams could […]


Ray Davis Worth a Roster Spot in Dynasty Leagues?

Buffalo Bills second-year running back Ray Davis saw his workload reduced drastically from Year 1 to Year 2, as the team finally gave James Cook the workhorse duties fantasy managers have been clamoring for for years. Cook saw the highest snap count of his career and obliterated his previous-high usage total, seeing a total of […]


Mike Gesicki a Fading Dynasty-League Veteran

Following a 65-reception, 665-yard campaign in his first year with the Bengals, tight end Mike Gesicki signed a three-year extension before the 2025 season. Missing parts of five games with a pectoral injury, the 30-year-old vet turned in his second-lowest yardage total since his rookie season, topping seven Half-PPR points only twice. With a relatively […]


Xavier Legette Losing Dynasty Value?

A first-round pick in 2024, Carolina wide receiver Xavier Legette has yet to top 500 receiving yards or four touchdowns in either of his professional seasons. While he has shown the occasional flash, he looks to be heading in the wrong direction on the Panthers ' depth chart heading into 2026. Offensive Rookie of the […]


Keaton Mitchell Still Worth Stashing in Dynasty Leagues?

Twenty-four-year-old Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell has shown explosiveness almost every time he's been given an opportunity, but through the first three seasons of his career, those opportunities have been limited to 130 total touches. At only 5-foot-8 and under 200 pounds, durability has already been an early-career concern, but with a lifetime average […]


Emeka Egbuka Primed for Consistent 2026 Season?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers first-round wide receiver Emeka Egbuka came out of the gates as a clear favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year, racking up 445 receiving yards and five touchdowns in the first five games of his career. Unfortunately, a Week 6 hamstring tweak and an inexplicable lack of chemistry with quarterback Baker Mayfield […]


Hunter Henry a Safe Late-Round Best-Ball Pick

Since signing with the New England Patriots in 2021, tight end Hunter Henry has turned in a top-12 finish in three of five seasons, never finishing below TE21. While he lacks the big game consistency to stay off the waiver wire in redraft formats, he's the exact type of player drafters should be targeting in […]


Jacory Croskey-Merritt in Line for Starting Role in 2026?

Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt was a seventh-round pick in 2025 following an unorthodox finish to his college career, and he became a popular sleeper pick heading into his first season. With the Commanders' running back room lacking obvious star talent, the path was there for the explosive young back to claim the top […]


Parker Washington Jacksonville's New WR1?

Third-year Jacksonville wide receiver Parker Washington led all Jaguars pass catchers with 58 receptions for 847 yards in 2025, while his five touchdown grabs trailed only running back Travis Etienne Jr. With rumblings that second overall pick Travis Hunter will be used primarily on the defensive side of the ball in year two, the Jaguars' […]


Omarion Hampton Set for Breakout 2026?

The Los Angeles Chargers selected running back Omarion Hampton 22nd overall in the 2025 NFL Draft, but ankle injuries limited the talented rookie to only nine regular-season games. Even still, the 22-year-old out of North Carolina showed enough in his first season to make him a popular breakout candidate heading into 2026. Following a season-ending […]


Tory Horton a Forgotten Sleeper for 2026

Before a shin injury cut his rookie season short, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton made five touchdown grabs over his final seven games of 2025 while complementing Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba's route-running precision with explosive downfield speed. Perhaps not coincidentally, once Horton was lost for the year, the second half of […]


Is Michael Mayer a Sneaky Dynasty Buy?

Once viewed as a top-10 dynasty tight end following his early-second round selection in the 2023 NFL draft, Las Vegas Raiders three-year veteran Michael Mayer has seen his stock dip season after season. With the Raiders bringing in an entirely new coaching staff for the second year in a row, Mayer has again seen his […]


Can Isaiah Davis Carve Out a Larger Role in 2026?

While playing all 17 games in 2025, New York Jets second-year running back Isaiah Davis put up 422 total yards on 64 touches. While the efficiency he displayed in his rookie season remained evident, his lack of usage was a disappointment, given fellow sophomore back Braelon Allen missed all but four games. With Breece Hall […]


Cedric Tillman a Cut Candidate Ahead of Rookie Drafts

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman had a three-game flash near the middle of his sophomore season, during which time he caught 21 passes for 255 yards and two scores. Unfortunately, nothing he's shown before or since has indicated a need to keep him rostered anywhere outside of the deepest dynasty leagues. Remaining relatively healthy […]


Justin Jefferson's Dynasty Value at a Five-Year Low

For the first time since the end of his explosive rookie season, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is being priced outside the top five of the position in dynasty startups. Still only 26 years old, the dip in value is in no way indicative of a decline in talent but rather stems from the […]


What Could a Year 2 Breakout Look Like for Ollie Gordon II?

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II saw his name linked to fantasy waiver wires throughout the year, but he ultimately spent most of his rookie season playing second, or even third fiddle, to De'Von Achane. With a new head coach and offensive coordinator set to take over in Miami, many have speculated whether the […]


Will Devin Singletary be Phased Out of Giants' Offense?

Running back Devin Singletary was the only New York Giants RB to play all 17 games in 2025, but he finished well behind Tyrone Tracy Jr. in carries, receptions, and total yards, while lacking the efficiency of rookie Cam Skattebo in both the running and passing game. Entering 2026 on the final year of the […]


Pat Bryant a 2026 Breakout Candidate

Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant finished his rookie campaign with fewer than 400 yards and only one touchdown, but based on glimpses he showed in two abbreviated playoff appearances, he could see a much larger role in 2026. Having the dubious distinction of exiting both games early with injury, it's difficult to project how […]


Is J.K. Dobbins' Best Fit Back With Broncos?

Running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) signed a one-year, $2.1 million deal with the Denver Broncos late in the 2025 offseason, and through the first 10 weeks of the season, he looked like one of the best values of the year. Dobbins ran for 772 yards and four touchdowns before going down to a Lisfranc injury […]


Is Kyler Murray a Dynasty Buy?

Once viewed as the dynasty QB1, a string of disappointing seasons has sunk Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray's value to an all-time low, with him currently going outside the top 20 at the position in dynasty startups. While his relationship with the previous coaching staff led many to believe he'd taken his last snaps in […]


Will Chris Godwin Jr. Regain Pre-Injury Form?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. missed eight games in 2025 while working his way back from the devastating lower leg injury that ended his 2024 season. While he never found the trademark consistency that made him one of the most reliable fantasy wideouts at his peak, he did show flashes down the […]
