Jameson Williams a Dynasty Sell-High Candidate Ahead of Potential 2026 Regression
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams put together the most productive season of his career in 2025, recording 65 receptions for 1,117 yards and seven touchdowns on 102 targets across 17 games. However, the season was a tale of two halves for Williams, who had just 17 catches for 289 yards and two scores on 30 targets through Detroit's Week 8 bye. The 25-year-old's second-half production surge coincided with the absence of Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (back), who suffered a season-ending back injury in Week 10. With LaPorta expected to be back in the mix for Detroit in 2026, Williams may once again struggle to provide consistent fantasy production. When all three of LaPorta, wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, and running back Jahmyr Gibbs have been available, Detroit has typically opted to utilize Williams in a low-volume downfield role. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore selling Williams at what could be a peak in his value.

Should Dynasty Managers Be Looking to Sell High on Chase Brown?
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown put together another rock-solid season in 2025, recording 1,456 scrimmage yards and 11 touchdowns on 301 touches across 17 games. The 26-year-old topped 1,000 rushing yards for the first time in his career while also setting career-highs in targets (88), receptions (69), and receiving yards (437). Brown's long-term future in Cincinnati is an open question, as he's set to play on the final year of his rookie contract in 2026. Still, he enters the year as the unquestioned lead back for the Bengals and should have a solid chance to reach 300 touches for the second consecutive season. If Cincinnati can get a fully healthy season out of quarterback Joe Burrow, Brown may also find himself playing in one of the NFL's best offenses in 2026. Dynasty managers may want to consider selling high on Brown following the 2026 season, but for now, he profiles as a player to hold due to high-end RB1 upside.

Is J.K. Dobbins Undervalued in Dynasty Formats?
Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins got off to a strong start to the 2025 season, recording 809 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 164 touches before suffering a season-ending foot injury in Week 10. Injuries remain a major issue for Dobbins, as he's missed 53 games since his rookie season in 2020. The 27-year-old may also be entering 2026 with less of a hold on the RB1 role in Denver due to the presence of 2025 second-rounder RJ Harvey and 2026 fourth-round pick Jonah Coleman. Still, Dobbins averaged 5.0 yards per carry before getting injured last season and has always been productive when healthy throughout his NFL career. Particularly for managers with win-now rosters, Dobbins' dynasty value may have fallen to the point where he is worth buying low on ahead of 2026.

Josh Allen Still the 1.01 in Superflex Startups?
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has finished the past six seasons as the QB1, the QB2, the QB1, the QB2, the QB1, and the QB1, and even as he enters his age-30 season, he has as strong a case as anyone to top the superflex dynasty rankings. At an age when most rushing quarterbacks face a durability-related decline, Allen has been able to sidestep such concerns with his 6'5", 237-pound frame. With the Bills trading for veteran receiver DJ Moore and spending a fourth-round pick on versatile playmaker Skyler Bell, an easy argument could be made that Allen now has the best core of receivers since Stefon Diggs was last in Buffalo in 2023. While it remains to be seen what Joe Brady's move from coordinator to head coach means for the offense, Allen already had untethered agency to run the unit as he sees fit, which has generally translated to unmatched fantasy upside.

Is Hunter Henry Primed for a Career Year?
New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has turned in TE1 fantasy finishes in each of the past two seasons and in four of the last seven years, and he heads into 2026 with a locked-in role in a still uptrending offense. The Patriots finished 2025 as the league's number one offense in terms of both total EPA and EPA per play in what was only the first season of quarterback Drake Maye and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels working together. By most accounts, Maye is already miles ahead of where he was at this point last season. While new wide receiver A.J. Brown is certain to draw targets, he also has the ability to elevate the offense as a whole and create more red zone opportunities for Henry. The Patriots replaced Austin Hooper with Julian Hill, but the latter is already lost for the season with a knee injury, and while the team spent a third-round pick on Notre Dame's Eli Raridon, he's still a somewhat raw prospect who could take time to develop in McDaniels' famously complex system. While he will turn 32 this season, Henry is arguably in the best situation of his 11-year career, and at RotoBaller's dynasty TE25, he's an obvious trade target for contending managers.

Jalen Coker a Dynasty Sleeper Ready to Put it All Together?
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker has finished each of the past two seasons in memorable fashion. In 2024, it was a then-career-high seven-reception performance in Week 18, and in 2025, he closed out the regular season with another six grabs and a touchdown before turning in the best game of his career in a Wild Card loss to the Rams, finishing the day with 134 yards and a score on nine catches. For the second straight season, he has garnered sleeper buzz, and while a preseason quadriceps injury cost him the first six games of 2025, he appears to be in good health heading into his third season and is locked into one of the top two receiver spots alongside 2025 Offensive Rookie of the Year Tetairoa McMillan. Including his breakout postseason performance, Coker scored 11.3 half-PPR points per game over his final eight contests, finishing as the WR24 or better five times, and yet, as a consensus dynasty WR5, there is still time to acquire the 24-year-old wideout well below his potential value.

George Holani Still Getting First-Team Reps
As was the case during voluntary organized team activities, Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani got the first reps with the starting unit during the media-accessible practice sessions of mandatory minicamp. He continued to be spelled by first-round pick Jadaraian Price, but unlike the opening weeks of spring, Price was reportedly given entire drives with the starting offense. Holani's receiving and pass-blocking work made him easy to trust in relief of the injured Zach Charbonnet during the team's Super Bowl run, but with the rookie already taking on a larger responsibility and Charbonnet spotted doing rehab work for the first time since he tore his ACL in January, Holani's spot atop the depth chart seems tentative at best.

Jadarian Price Getting More Reps With Starters
Seattle Seahawks first-round pick Jadarian Price continues to be the second running back to take reps with the starting unit, as he was in voluntary practice sessions, still sliding in behind third-year back George Holani. However, for the first time this spring, he was seen handling entire drives with the first-team offense. Unexpectedly, 2023 second-round pick Zach Charbonnet was spotted doing low-impact drills with trainers on Tuesday, marking the first time he's been seen on the field since his season-ending ACL tear in a Divisional Round win over the 49ers and signaling that he could be closer to a return than initially speculated. With Charbonnet on the final year of his rookie contract, the belief is that Seattle's lead back responsibilities will eventually be turned over to Price, but with Charbonnet potentially back in the fold earlier than anticipated, and the rookie still needing to earn his way to the top, the backfield situation in Seattle has the potential to become a frustrating one for fantasy in 2026.

Zach Charbonnet Part of Seattle's Early Season Plans?
Less than five months removed from the ACL tear that ended his 2025 season, Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) was seen by reporters working out with trainers for the first time since the injury. Head coach Mike Macdonald has been vague about Charbonnet's recovery, but in testing out the knee with low-impact agility drills in front of the gathered media, Charbonnet appears to be closer to a return than some originally speculated. MacDonald had previously said the fourth-year back would not partake in any spring activities, so to see his timeline accelerated in the team's final open practice before training camp suggests he might be ready closer to the start of the season than the middle.

Cam Skattebo a "Tone-Setter" in Return from Injury
New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo brought an undeniable flash of excitement to the team's improving offense in 2025 before a gruesome ankle injury ended his rookie campaign. In the six games in which he handled a full workload, Skattebo averaged 17.4 half-PPR points per game and was the RB6 from Weeks 2 through 7. Having already cleared several major hurdles in his recovery and taking part in team drills, the second-year runner has made an impression on new head coach John Harbaugh, who recently referred to Skattebo as a "top-tier back" and a "tone-setter". Harbaugh was responsible for the league's most run-heavy offense in his final seasons in Baltimore, and if Skattebo can stay healthy without sacrificing the hard-running style that has defined his early career, he has legitimate league-winning upside.

Caleb Williams Still Has Plenty of Room for Improvement
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was responsible for some of the most memorable plays of the 2025 season, and while the obvious wow factor has garnered him accolades and video-game covers, there is plenty about his game that can still be cleaned up on his path to superstar status. Williams finished 32nd in the league with a 58.1% completion rate, while only J.J. McCarthy and Michael Penix Jr. had a higher rate of off-target throws. Head coach Ben Johnson has built a dynamic offense around the 2024 first overall pick, and if the third-year quarterback can do a better job of keeping things on schedule on early downs, there is no reason the Bears can't have one of the most fantasy-friendly units for this season and beyond. Williams is RotoBaller's QB7 with the ceiling to be a fantasy league-winner, and if he can raise his floor in 2026, he should become an every-week starter.

Could 2026 Be Jalen Hurts' Final Season in Philadelphia?
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts enters the 2026 season with his fifth offensive coordinator in as many seasons. When it's worked out, as with Kellen Moore and Shane Steichen, the Eagles have played for Super Bowls, and Hurts has been an MVP contender. When it goes south, as was the case last season with Kevin Patullo, fingers are quick to be pointed, and there are reportedly some in the building who lay responsibility for the team's offensive struggles in 2025 at the feet of Hurts. The former second-round pick has three years remaining on his current deal, with $22 million guaranteed for 2027, but one needs to look no further back than 2020 for an example of the team moving on from a quarterback shortly after agreeing to a big-money extension. In that situation, it was Hurts taking the starting job from Carson Wentz before the former second overall pick was traded away with three years remaining on his second contract. By all accounts, Hurts has been receptive to the constant change around him, but if Philadelphia's offensive struggles continue under new coordinator Sean Mannion, the next change could very well include him.

Rachaad White to Inherit the Primary Pass-Catching Role?
In his four years with the Buccaneers, Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White never caught fewer than 40 passes in a season, and with a one-year free agent contract bringing him to the nation's capital for 2026, the belief is that he will inherit the primary pass-catching role that was intended for Austin Ekeler over the past two seasons. Ekeler signed a two-year deal in 2024, but a serious concussion in 2024 and an early Achilles injury in 2025 limited him to just 14 games with the Commanders. That said, he still gathered in 40 total receptions in his abbreviated stint and saw at least three targets in nine of those 14 games. 2026 sixth-round pick Kaytron Allen never caught more than 18 passes in any of his four collegiate seasons, and Jacory Croskey-Merritt was limited to nine grabs as a rookie, leaving Jerome Ford and Jeremy McNichols, neither of whom is a roster lock at this point, as the most credible obstacles to a dedicated receiving role for White.

Kayshon Boutte is Full-Go at Minicamp
New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte was seen back on the field for mandatory minicamp. Boutte didn't participate in voluntary OTAs, but is back with the team now. It remains to be seen what kind of role Boutte is going to have with A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs joining this offense over the offseason. Boutte said that he's willing to play anywhere and wants to help the team however he can. He has been the subject of trade rumors this offseason and is entering the final year of his rookie contract. He finished with 33 receptions, 551 receiving yards, and six touchdowns last season. It's tough to imagine his stats improving with Brown and Doubs on the roster now. He's at camp and saying the right things, but we'll see what kind of involvement he has in the offense.

Jacoby Brissett is at Minicamp, but Not Practicing
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett has reported to mandatory minicamp, but is not practicing. Brissett is reporting to avoid fines, but he doesn't want to practice until he gets a new contract. The veteran quarterback is currently entering the final year deal, and is set to make $4.88 million this upcoming season. Brissett wants a restructured deal that reflects what a starting quarterback would be making in the league these days. Last season, Brissett threw for a career-high 3,366 passing yards and 23 touchdowns, but posted a 1-11 record as the starter. It'll be interesting to see if the Cardinals cave into the demands of the 33-year-old veteran. The Cardinals have Gardner Minshew II and rookie Carson Beck as their other options at quarterback.
