Brian Thomas Jr.'s Uncertain Future Could Make Him a Buy-Low Candidate

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. has seen his name floated in trade rumors since last season's trade deadline, despite repeated claims from the front office that they are not shopping their former first-round pick following a disappointing second season.

Is Luke McCaffrey Still Worth Stashing on Dynasty Benches?

When the Washington Commanders spent a third-round pick on former quarterback turned wide receiver Luke McCaffrey in 2024, many fantasy managers feared he may have been over-drafted, but chased the draft capital and spent a late rookie pick on him anyway. Through his first two seasons in the NFL, he's accumulated only 371 yards on […]

Elijah Sarratt's Contested-Catch Ability is a Double-Edged Sword

Indiana wide receiver Elijah Sarratt was a zero-star recruit who saw stops at Saint Francis and James Madison before winning a National Championship with the Hoosiers in 2025. He is a big-bodied receiver who excelled on back-shoulder throws and contested-catch situations, but those traits that led to success at the collegiate level are increasingly seen […]

After injuries limited him to only five offensive snaps as a rookie, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson saw the field more in Year 2, but was still unable to take advantage of his limited opportunities, finishing 2026 with only two touchdowns and 166 yards on 12 receptions. A third-round pick in the 2024 NFL […]

A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. struggled to establish himself as a rookie.

The 35th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Las Vegas Raiders right end Michael Mayer flashed some upside by hauling in 27 receptions for 304 yards and two touchdowns on 40 targets as a rookie.

The NFL Network's Mike Garafolo thinks that Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson (Achilles) is in the "pole position" to be the team's starter for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season. Shedeur Sanders finished his rookie season as the Browns' starter under center, but he was very inconsistent down the stretch and has plenty to […]

Former Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray's (foot) fantasy football value in dynasty/keeper leagues was trending down in recent years and fell to a low point in 2025, when he appeared in just five games due to a sprained foot.

Is Rachaad White the New RB1 for the Commanders?

Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White wanted a bigger role in the backfield, which is why he left the Buccaneers in free agency, and he could get his wish in 2026 with the Washington Commanders. The 27-year-old former third-rounder (91st overall) in 2022 out of Arizona State averaged 3.9 yards per carry for […]

Stefon Diggs Still a Free Agent With April Approaching

The New England Patriots released veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs on March 11, and the 32-year-old veteran pass-catcher remains on the open market at the tail end of March.

Alvin Kamara's Workload Expected to Look Drastically Different in 2026

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee), who has been the team's lead back for the last eight seasons, finished the year on Injured Reserve again in 2025 and appears headed for a drastically reduced role in 2026 after the Saints signed Travis Etienne Jr. to a four-year, $52 million contract in free agency. […]

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) had a golden opportunity to take over his team's backfield in 2025 after fellow Cardinals back James Conner (ankle) went down with a season-ending ankle injury in Week 3.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker showed flashes of high-level production upside in 2025, recording 354 yards from scrimmage and eight touchdowns on 94 touches across 17 games played.

Can Ja'Kobi Lane Carve Out a Fantasy-Relevant Role as a Rookie?

Across 11 games as a junior at USC in 2025, wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane recorded 49 receptions for 745 yards and four touchdowns.

Chig Okonkwo Instantly Jumping to Fantasy Relevance in Washington?

Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo could immediately contribute as an appealing fantasy option during his first year with the team.

With that […]

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. could find himself in a familiar role next season.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk's time in the Bay Area is likely over, but he could still be a low-cost target in dynasty leagues as he embarks on the next chapter of his career. All signs point to the 49ers designating Aiyuk as a post-June 1 release, putting an end to all the […]

Romeo Doubs the New No. 1 Target in New England?

New England Patriots wide receiver Romeo Doubs will have an opportunity to emerge as Drake Maye's favorite target during the 2026 season.

Josh Allen Still the Top Dog at QB in Fantasy

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a second straight season of under 4,000 passing yards in 2025, but he more than made up for it with his rushing prowess to finish as the QB1 in fantasy football.
