ESPN's Rich Cimini reports that New York Jets wide receiver
Malachi Corley (undisclosed) won't be a shoo-in for the team's 53-man roster as he's missed critical time with an undisclosed injury during their offensive install. New York selected Corley with the first pick of the third round in 2024's draft, though his rookie season saw him catch just 3-of-6 targets across 83 total offensive snaps. The Jets' corps of pass-catchers is mostly thin behind No. 1 option
Garrett Wilson, so Corley could push for significant snaps if he continues to develop. New head coach Aaron Glenn has insinuated he'll run a tight ship, and isn’t tied to the 23-year-old, considering he isn't a part of the regime that drafted him. Corley's athletic profile is enticing, but he requires improvement before impacting fantasy lineups in 2025.

Cleveland Browns rookie defensive lineman Mason Graham was selected with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft after the team traded down from the No. 2 selection with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Graham was a dominant force at Michigan, earning two first-team All-Big Ten honors behind 81 total tackles, 15 tackles for loss, and 6.5 sacks in his final 25 games. At the next level, the Browns expect more production out of Graham in a different role. "The spring has been a transition for Graham, who was asked to take on blockers at Michigan but will be expected to penetrate the defensive line and be more of a disruptive force in Cleveland," team reporter Daniel Oyefusi wrote. "Despite the difference in scheme, defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said Graham is 'pretty far ahead right now.' Graham rotated with the first-team defense during OTAs and mandatory minicamp." With All-Pro edge rusher Myles Garrett eating double teams, Graham should have plenty of room to operate on the interior of Cleveland's front seven.

Speaking on the Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback
Aaron Rodgers said that he's "pretty sure this is it" in terms of 2025 being the last season of his storied NFL career. Rodgers said that's why he only signed a one-year deal with Pittsburgh this offseason. The 10-time Pro Bowler and four-time MVP will turn 42 years old this December. His mobility appeared to be limited in 2024 after tearing his Achilles with the New York Jets in 2023, and he threw for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 17 starts while leading Gang Green to a disappointing 5-12 record.
DK Metcalf will be his primary aerial target with the Steelers, but it remains to be seen how much he'll be able to stretch the field in an offense that figures to lean on the run. Rodgers was the QB15 in fantasy this year and will likely have a lower ceiling in the Steel City.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Haason Reddick had a very public and messy contract dispute with the New York Jets last year and ended up with just one sack in 10 games played (two starts). However, The Athletic's Dan Pompei writes that Reddick's presence at Tampa's minicamp was powerful. The 30-year-old veteran hasn't forgotten how to rush the passer after racking up 50.5 sacks from 2020 to 2023. Pompei adds that the expectation is that Reddick will have a very productive 2025 campaign while rushing the passer and passing on his knowledge to help his teammates. The Buccaneers signed him to a one-year, $14 million deal this offseason that could turn out to be a steal if he returns to double-digit sack production. Reddick could quickly reappear on the IDP fantasy radar with a change of scenery.

The Athletic's Michael-Shawn Dugar writes that new Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Cooper Kupp still has some juice, and the team thinks he still has enough left in the tank to be a legitimate complementary piece to WR1
Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Kupp looked the part during offseason workouts and still has enough wiggle, understanding of leverage and quickness to be a pest underneath and in the red zone. The 32-year-old veteran is no longer the same receiver that accomplished the receiving Triple Crown in 2021, but he can still win with deception and his high-level route-running. Kupp's fantasy floor and ceiling are much lower now, and he's missed five or more games in three straight seasons due to injuries, but he can still be in play as a WR4/flex in the Pacific Northwest if he stays on the field. RotoBaller has him ranked just inside the top-50 pass-catchers.

The Philadelphia Eagles aren't as deep in their secondary after the offseason departures of Darius Slay, C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Avonte Maddox. As a result, Cooper DeJean and rookie Drew Mukuba might both have flexible roles in the secondary in 2025, according to The Athletic's Brooks Kubena. DeJean is still being used at nickel, but defensive coordinator Vic Fangio is also using him at outside cornerback opposite Quinyon Mitchell in base packages. Mukuba, meanwhile, has taken first-team snaps at safety as he battles with Sydney Brown while also playing the slot with DeJean in dime packages. Philly still has plenty of talent in their secondary, but an injury to one of DeJean, Mukuba or Mitchell could cause serious issues on the back end.

Multiple Philadelphia Eagles players this spring expressed the need for the offense to evolve in 2025, suggesting that there could be more variance under new offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo, according to Inside The Birds' Andrew DiCecco. Running back
Saquon Barkley figures to be the primary beneficiary if that plan manifests in the form of a more balanced attack, minimizing his wear and tear. The 28-year-old became just the ninth player in NFL history to go over 2,000 rushing yards in a season in 2024 as the Eagles offense leaned heavily on him. He had career-highs in carries (345) and rushing yards (2,005) and totaled 482 touches (including the playoffs). While Barkley will again be called on to do most of the heavy lifting, it's also quite possible the Eagles will look to give him more rest after such a big workload in 2024. Still, he's going to be the first player off the board in most fantasy drafts this fall.

The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt writes that there will be legitimate competition for the New York Jets' starting center job this summer at training camp. Joe Tippmann graded out decently last year, but he was a draft selection by the previous regime. New head coach Aaron Glenn and general manager Darren Mougey brough in Josh Myers in free agency to push Tippmann, a former second-round selection. Myers pushed Tippmann during OTAs and minicamp, and he has the edge in experience as a starter and experience working with quarterback
Justin Fields from their time together at Ohio State in college. Rosenblatt still views Tippmann as the favorite to start at center to begin the 2025 season, but Myers is going to get a real shot at the starting gig in camp and the preseason.

The Athletic's Dan Duggan writes that the New York Giants' selection of outside linebacker Abdul Carter with the third overall pick in this year's NFL draft could be a game-changer for the team in 2025. Carter, in addition to pass-rushers Dexter Lawrence, Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeau, gives the G-Men the ability to dominate games on the defensive side of the ball. The Giants also upgraded their defense in the offseason by adding cornerback Paulson Adebo and safety Jevon Holland in free agency. In 16 games in 2024 in his final season at Penn State, the 21-year-old Carter had 24 tackles for loss and 12 sacks. While Carter might be in more of a rotational role as an edge rusher initially in the Big Apple, he could emerge as a weekly IDP fantasy option sooner than later because of his game-wrecking ability.

The New Orleans Saints offensive line seems to be in place this year, and the team hopes their front five will be far more reliable than last year with four former first-round picks, according to The Athletic's Larry Holder. Trevor Penning, a first-rounder in 2022 is moving to left guard as he enters the final year of his contract after struggling at tackle in his first three NFL seasons. Holder writes that the move seems to fit Penning early on. Erik McCoy is the leader of the offensive line after missing most of the 2024 campaign due to injuries. This is certainly a positive development in new head coach Kellen Moore's first year in the Big Easy, especially if the Saints end up going with rookie second-round quarterback
Tyler Shough as their starter under center in 2025 following the abrupt retirement of
Derek Carr.

The Miami Dolphins need a couple of cornerbacks to step up this year with a trade of Jalen Ramsey seeming more like a "when" than an "if" at this point, according to The Athletic's Jim Ayello. Head coach Mike McDaniel has effectively opened up the competition for anyone to grab the two starting outside jobs this summer, with Kader Kohou expected to start in the slot. Among the option for the two starting outside cornerback jobs are Storm Duck, Cam Smith, Artie Burns, Kendall Sheffield and Jason Marshall Jr. Isaiah Johnson, an undrafted free agent in 2024 who spent time on last year's practice squad, was among the standouts during offseason activities. He could put himself in position for one of the starting jobs if he continues to make progress during training camp. Ramsey is expected to be traded before training camp begins in late July.
