Anthony Richardson Sr.'s Dynasty Value at All-Time Low
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. remains off the fantasy radar in all leagues, including dynasty formats. Richardson was benched for Daniel Jones at the start of last season and ultimately found himself on injured reserve for a large portion of the year due to an eye injury. As he remains behind Jones (and possibly Riley Leonard) on the depth chart, Richardson has requested a trade, with no such luck. The market for the former first-round pick is reportedly quite poor, and it doesn't sound like any teams are serious about trading for him. The same can be said about dynasty managers, who have no interest in pursuing Richardson, even if he doesn't cost much. Sure, he has rushing upside, but his tendency to turn the football over is such a liability. Across 11 games in 2023, Richardson amassed 1,814 passing yards, eight passing touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. He did boost his fantasy stock slightly with 499 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns, but not enough to change his fantasy outlook. His days in Indy are likely numbered, and he can be dropped in most dynasty formats.

David Bailey Visits Several Teams Leading Up to the NFL Draft
Texas Tech University edge rusher David Bailey has been busy with visits ahead of Thursday's NFL Draft. According to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2, Bailey has visited with the Tennessee Titans, Washington Commanders, Arizona Cardinals, Dallas Cowboys, and Kansas City Chiefs. Of those five teams, Arizona picks earliest at No. 3 overall, but there have been rumors suggesting they could trade their selection to the Chiefs, who are also interested in Bailey. It makes sense that there's a lot of interest, as Bailey was the Big 12 Defensive Lineman of the Year in 2025 with 52 tackles, 19.5 tackles for loss, 14.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, and one fumble recovery. Even if he doesn't get selected third overall, he is one of the top prospects in the draft and won't fall too far.

Oscar Delp Takes Several Visits Ahead of Draft
University of Georgia tight end prospect Oscar Delp recently conducted several meetings and visits as NFL teams continue to prepare for this week's draft, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC2. Delp, who is fully healthy after recovering from a hairline fracture in his foot, met virtually with the Houston Texans and in person with the New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens, Carolina Panthers, Los Angeles Chargers, Minnesota Vikings, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Cleveland Browns. He stood out as a three-year starter in the SEC, capping off his collegiate career with 20 catches, 261 yards, and one touchdown in 2025. He has untapped potential as a blocker and receiver, and he's capable of playing on all downs. Most mock drafts have him slated to be drafted on Day 3 of the draft, but there's a chance he could be a later pick in the third round on Day 2.

Chiefs Talking With Cardinals About the No. 3 Pick
The Kansas City Chiefs are in talks to acquire the No. 3 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft from the Arizona Cardinals, according to Johnny Venerable of PHNX. The Chiefs are believed to be interested in selecting a pass rusher, and trading up from No. 9 to No. 3 could put them in the mix for Texas Tech's David Bailey or Ohio State's Arvell Reese. Additional details about the trade rumors are unclear, but presumably, the Chiefs would have to part with No. 9 and another first-rounder to move up. They also pick 29th this year, or they could include a future selection. The top of the draft is unfamiliar territory for the Chiefs, who recently missed the playoffs for the first time since 2014. Now that they're positioned to pick in the top 10, it looks like they're leaving no stone unturned in their quest to acquire an elite prospect.

Steelers Eyeing Carson Beck in the Draft?
The Pittsburgh Steelers could be targeting Miami quarterback Carson Beck in this week's NFL Draft, according to Mike DeFabo of The Athletic. Beck took a pre-draft visit with the Steelers. The same can be said for Penn State's Drew Allar, but not Alabama's Ty Simpson. DeFabo notes that while Simpson has been heavily linked to the Steelers by the media, the team may be dissuaded by his limited track record in college. That's where Beck makes more sense, as he was a three-year starter in the NCAA and has significant experience playing in big games. DeFabo speculates that Beck checks every box for the Steelers, while the other two do not. Pittsburgh doesn't want to reach for Beck, but it sounds like he'll absolutely be an option for them if he's still available in the middle rounds. The Steelers' draft plans likely don't hinge too much on the status of quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who is a candidate to re-sign but currently remains a free agent.

Zachariah Branch Arrested for Misdemeanor Obstruction
Georgia wide receiver Zachariah Branch was arrested on Sunday on two misdemeanor obstruction charges, according to Marc Weiszer of the Athens Banner-Herald. Branch was charged with obstructing public sidewalks/streets-prowling and obstruction of a law enforcement officer. It's unclear if it will affect his stock as a potential Day 2 draft pick in this year's 2026 NFL draft, which kicks off on Thursday night. Branch began his collegiate career with two seasons at USC before playing with the Bulldogs in his final collegiate season in 2025. He had his best season last year, catching an SEC-high 81 passes for 811 yards and six touchdowns in 14 games played at Georgia. Branch ran an impressive 4.35-second 40-yard dash at the NFL scouting combine in February, but his recent off-the-field issue could cause NFL teams to sour on him ahead of next week's draft.

Sonny Styles One of the Top Targets for Giants at No. 5 in NFL Draft
ESPN's Jordan Raanan writes that Ohio State middle linebacker Sonny Styles is "believed to be one of the top targets" for the New York Giants in next week's NFL draft if they stay at No. 5 overall. Styles is considered one of the safest and cleanest prospects in the 2026 class, given his combination of production in college and athletic skills. The Giants didn't have a pre-draft visit with Styles, but they showed significant interest in him throughout the pre-draft process, including meeting him before and after his pro day. Styles is such a coveted early-round prospect in this year's draft that he might not even be available before the G-Men pick at fifth overall. There has been significant buzz about the Tennessee Titans potentially taking him at No. 4 overall, with some sources thinking Styles is a more likely option for the Titans at that spot than Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love. The Giants are also enamored with Love if he's available to No. 5 overall next Thursday night.

49ers Looking to Trade Renardo Green?
San Francisco 49ers cornerback Renardo Green could be on the trade block this offseason, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. General manager John Lynch has said that the organization isn't actively looking to trade Green, but if the right offer comes along, it wouldn't be a surprise if he's dealt after being seen arguing with head coach Kyle Shanahan multiple times on the sideline in 2025. Interested NFL teams could be looking to buy low on the 25-year-old defensive back, who was taken in the second round (64th overall) by the Niners in 2024 out of Florida State. Green had 61 tackles (41 solo), an interception, 13 pass breakups, and one forced fumble in 17 games (seven starts) in his rookie season before compiling 60 tackles (36 solo) and 10 pass breakups in 14 regular-season starts last year in a disappointing second season in the league. He missed the last couple of games in the regular season in 2025 due to an ankle injury, but he's on track to be ready for the start of the 2026 campaign this fall.

Chargers Not Closing the Door on a Reunion With Keenan Allen
Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz isn't ruling out a reunion with free-agent veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. "I wouldn't say the room is complete," Hortiz said. The most interesting available receiver in free agency that the Chargers could consider is Tyreek Hill (knee), who has previous experience in new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's scheme. In addition to Allen and Hill, Jauan Jennings and Deebo Samuel Sr. are available and could be added to a WR room in L.A. that includes Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Tre' Harris. McConkey saw his fantasy stock fall considerably in 2025 in his sophomore season with the return of Allen, who finished with 81 receptions for 777 yards and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season games in his 13th year in the league after a one-year stay with the Chicago Bears in 2024. Re-signing with the Bolts would probably be the best-case scenario for Allen's 2026 fantasy value as he nears the end of his illustrious career.

Eagles Preparing for A.J. Brown's Departure?
ESPN's Jeff Darlington said he thinks the Philadelphia Eagles will be "operating from a place" that wide receiver A.J. Brown will not be on their roster for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season this fall. General manager Howie Roseman has refused to give many details this offseason when asked about Brown's status. Additionally, the team acquired wideout Dontayvion Wicks from the Green Bay Packers. Rumors have swirled about the New England Patriots' and Tennessee Titans' interest in trading for Brown, although nothing has come to fruition yet. All signs are pointing to the Eagles getting much more serious about trading the three-time Pro Bowler after June 1, when it becomes much more financially palatable for them to trade the 28-year-old pass-catcher. Although Brown reached the 1,000-yard mark for the fourth straight season (and in six of his seven NFL seasons), he was unhappy with his offensive role in Philly and had a career-low 12.9 yards per catch in 15 regular-season games. A move to New England would be attractive from a fantasy perspective, but Brown might still be a volatile low-end WR1/high-end WR2 target in fantasy football.

Titans to Pick Up Peter Skoronski's Fifth-Year Option
The Tennessee Titans plan to pick up offensive guard Peter Skoronski's fifth-year option for the 2027 season, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. It will set Skoronski up to make $19.07 million in 2027. The 24-year-old was the 11th overall pick in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft out of Northwestern. In his first three years in the NFL, Skoronski has started all 48 of the games that he's appeared in for Tennessee. It remains to be seen if the Titans will look to get a long-term extension worked out with Skoronski before he enters the fifth and final year of his deal. Since the start of the 2024 regular season, Skoronski has been a staple for Tennessee's offensive line, not missing a single game. Having Skoronski around is a plus for young quarterback Cameron Ward and a Titans offense that is looking to take a step forward under new coordinator Brian Daboll in 2026.

Breece Hall's Dynasty Upside Remains Limited by Offensive Environment in New York
Despite having an atrocious supporting cast around him for most of the 2025 season, New York Jets running back Breece Hall still managed to record 1,415 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 279 touches across 16 games. The Jets signed Hall to the franchise tag earlier this offseason, and the two sides have yet to work out a long-term extension. While New York could easily still extend Hall at some point before the start of 2026, the 24-year-old's dynasty value would almost certainly benefit from a change of scenery. Hall has proven he can be productive regardless of the situation around him, but his upside is unquestionably limited with the Jets. New York's offense should be more stable with veteran quarterback Geno Smith under center in 2026. Still, the Jets likely remain at least a year or two away from fielding a high-level unit. Hall may struggle to reach his full dynasty potential without a chance to hit the open market.

Dexter Lawrence Signing One-Year Extension With Bengals
Now that the Cincinnati Bengals' acquisition of defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence from the New York Giants is official and he has passed a physical, the Bengals signed him to a one-year, $28 million contract extension on Sunday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Lawrence is now contractually tied to Cincinnati for the next three seasons after getting his wish and moving out of New York. The Bengals sent the 10th overall pick in this year's NFL draft to the G-Men, who now hold two picks in the first 15 picks next week. The 28-year-old former first-rounder out of Clemson in 2019 was a Pro Bowler from 2022 to 2024, but he had a very disappointing season in his final year with the Giants in 2025, recording just half of a sack with 31 tackles (14 solo) and eight QB hits in 17 starts in his seventh year in the NFL. The Bengals will be hoping that Lawrence, who has 30.5 career sacks, can bounce back in 2026 and help give the team's pass rush a boost now that Trey Hendrickson is no longer in town.

Drake London's Dynasty Upside Remains Limited by Quarterback Questions in Atlanta
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London ran into some injury issues with his knee that caused him to miss time down the stretch of the 2025 season. Still, the 24-year-old was highly productive across the 12 games he was active for, recording 68 receptions for 919 yards and seven touchdowns on a whopping 112 targets. London is averaging 9.3 targets per game over the past two seasons and profiles as the clear number one pass-catcher in Atlanta once again in 2026. However, the Falcons' ongoing issues at the quarterback position continue to limit London's upside. Atlanta QB Michael Penix Jr. (knee) is coming off a torn ACL and was largely ineffective when healthy in 2025, throwing for 1,982 yards and nine touchdowns across nine games. The Falcons signed veteran signal-caller Tua Tagovailoa in free agency, but the 28-year-old threw 15 interceptions and averaged under seven yards per pass attempt across 14 games with the Miami Dolphins in 2025. London remains a dynasty WR1, but he may struggle to realize his full potential until the Falcons solve the quarterback position.

Chris Olave's Dynasty Value Rising After Resurgent 2025 Season
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave re-emerged as a high-value PPR wide receiver in 2025, recording 100 receptions for 1,163 yards and nine touchdowns on 156 targets across 16 games. After a lost season in which injuries forced him to miss nine games in 2024, Olave was able to re-establish himself as the clear number one target in New Orleans. He also got some much-needed help in the quarterback department in the second half of the year after Tyler Shough took over as the Saints' QB1. Olave's worrying track record of concussion issues remains a red flag for his long-term dynasty outlook. However, he's proven to be an effective high-volume target earner as long as he's on the field. Particularly with the improved offensive environment around him, Olave's value is trending up heading into 2026.
