Ladd McConkey a Dynasty Buy-Low Candidate in Improved Offense
After a standout rookie campaign in 2024, Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey saw his numbers fall across the board in 2025. Across 16 games (12 starts), the 24-year-old recorded 66 receptions for 789 yards and six touchdowns on 106 targets for an average of just 11.3 PPR fantasy points per game. Despite the downturn in production, there's reason for fantasy managers to be optimistic about McConkey's outlook in 2026. For one, the Chargers brought in a new play-caller over the offseason in former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel, who should help maximize the team's offensive weapons. Additionally, veteran wideout Keenan Allen is currently a free agent after leading the team with 122 targets in 2025. If the Chargers do not bring back Allen, McConkey could see an uptick in both targets and playing time in the slot. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore buying low on McConkey ahead of a possible re-emergence in 2026.
