Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray has long-term upside in dynasty leagues, making him a sneaky stash for the upcoming offseason.

Detroit Tigers first baseman Spencer Torkelson got back on track with 31 home runs and 118 wRC+ across 155 games in the majors last season.

Kerry Carpenter Continues to Shine as Impact Power Bat

Detroit Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter has showcased impressive power through his first three-plus MLB seasons, and he'll look to continue that trend in 2026.

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jackson Holliday (hand) will get the stitches removed from his surgically-repaired right hand on Monday, according to Roch Kubatko of MASN.

Optimism Still Exists for Aaron Nola in 2026

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola is coming off the worst season of his big-league career.

Jalen Tolbert Falls Down Depth Chart in Contract Year

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert ended up getting buried on the depth chart during a crucial contract year in 2025.

Calvin Austin III Doesn't Live Up to Expectations in 2025

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III had a clear path to production in 2025, but he failed to capitalize on his opportunities and ultimately turned in a disappointing season.

Cole Kmet's Value Declining Ahead of 2026

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman had a very underwhelming 2025 season, catching just 19 of his 38 targets for a career-low 224 yards and two touchdowns.
