Kyren Williams Becoming a Better Dynasty Value by the Day
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams has finished as the RB9 or better in each of the past three years, and a league-winning season looked inevitable had he not missed significant time in his 2023 breakout campaign. For the first time since 2016, the Rams did not add to the running back room through the NFL Draft, and yet the 25-year-old Williams continues to slide in dynasty rankings, currently slotting in as RotoBaller's RB17. Concerns of Blake Corum's expanding role are justified after the team seemed to make a concerted effort to keep Williams fresh down the stretch, and with Corum's five rushing touchdowns trailing only Derrick Henry over the final six weeks of the season, he has rightfully earned more touches moving forward. That said, Williams' contract runs through 2028, and even 55-60% of the running back snaps and the bulk of the receiving work in what again projects to be one of the most high-powered offenses in the league could result in another RB1 finish, making him a smart buy at his current cost.

Is it Time to Move on From Ben Sinnott?
Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott was a second-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, and with that draft capital came lofty fantasy expectations. Unfortunately, the third-year player, who showed flashes of dynamism at Kansas State, has yet to top 36 receiving yards in any game while playing mostly behind the almost-36-year-old Zach Ertz. With the Commanders committing nearly $17 million of guaranteed money to Chig Okonkwo on the first day of free agency, Sinnott appears to remain buried on the depth chart. Even with two-time Pro Bowler Terry McLaurin sidelined for much of the season and Washington using heavy personnel at one of the highest rates in the league in 2025, Sinnott was unable to stand out among a group of pass catchers led by a 29-year-old Deebo Samuel Sr., who remains unsigned as the calendar approaches May. With McLaurin expected to return to full health and the Commanders spending a third-round draft pick on Clemson's Antonio Williams, Sinnott is approaching roster-clogging status as dynasty managers look to free up bench spots for the incoming crop of rookies.

Sam Darnold Still a Reliable Dynasty Hold
Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold won the Super Bowl in his first year with Seattle after rehabilitating his career in one season with the Minnesota Vikings. Darnold finished as the QB14 in 2025 after a top-10 finish in 2024. In both Seattle and Minnesota, he was able to support All-Pro wide receivers, most recently helping Jaxon Smith-Njigba to win the league's Offensive Player of the Year Award. Having topped 25 passing touchdowns only once and never adding more than 217 yards on the ground, though, his own fantasy ceiling may be limited. At RotoBaller's dynasty QB21, Darnold feels accurately priced, and the nine-year veteran should be able to continue delivering reliable QB2 floors. His current deal with Seattle runs through the 2027 season, and he will be almost 31 years old when he gets to that point, so he may not see much of the traditional dynasty bump that comes with a new contract, but barring the unforeseen, he should remain a safe hold for as long as he's tied to Smith-Njigba.

Could Dynasty Managers See One More Sell Window for Justin Fields?
The Kansas City Chiefs sent a 2027 sixth-round pick to the New York Jets to acquire quarterback Justin Fields at the start of the league year, and the former first-round pick could be the team's Week 1 starter if Patrick Mahomes is not yet fully recovered from the ACL tear that cost him the final three weeks of the 2025 season. Now playing for his fourth team in as many years, Fields has been a massive disappointment by NFL standards, but his rushing upside has made him a legitimate fantasy week-winner at almost every stop. With one year remaining on the $40 million deal he signed with the Jets, what he's able to show in relief of Mahomes becomes all the more significant before hitting the open market again in 2027. For dynasty managers who have held Fields this long, the opening weeks of the season could be the final chance to recoup anything of value for RotoBaller's QB35.

Dallas Goedert a Dynasty Bargain After Flurry of Eagles' Moves
Tight end rooms around the league were shaken up when nine tight ends were selected within the first three rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft, and one of the incumbents who will now have to fend off rookie competition is the Philadelphia Eagles' Dallas Goedert. The Eagles spent the 54th overall pick on Vanderbilt prospect Eli Stowers, making him the second tight end selected in a loaded class. The nine-year veteran Goedert finished 2025 with 591 yards and 11 touchdowns on 60 receptions but will need to reestablish himself among a completely reworked group of pass catchers. With the team expected to trade away A.J. Brown on or shortly after June 1st, Philadelphia added Marquise Brown and Dontayvion Wicks through free agency and trade before spending a first-round pick on USC wide receiver Makai Lemon and a second on Stowers. The good news for the 2018 second-round pick is that with Stowers profiling more as a jumbo slot than a traditional Y-tight end, none of the new additions truly threaten Goedert's existing role. After re-upping on his own one-year deal this offseason, Goedert could still see more involvement than Philadelphia's most recent moves would suggest, making him a short-term bargain for depth-seeking dynasty managers at RotoBaller's TE22.

Theo Johnson a Dynasty Faller After Busy Giants Offseason
As a second-year player in 2025, New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson trailed only Wan'Dale Robinson in team targets and receptions, but even with Robinson departing in free agency, dynasty managers may have already seen Johnson's ceiling. Tight end Isaiah Likely was one of the team's first free agent acquisitions, reuniting him with new Giants head coach John Harbaugh. Darnell Mooney, who saw 100 targets as recently as 2024, was brought in as the most direct replacement to Robinson, and New York spent a third-round pick on Notre Dame wide receiver Malachi Fields to further bolster the room. The biggest barrier to volume for Johnson and all other Giants pass catchers, though, is the expected return to health of Malik Nabers, who tore his ACL only four weeks into the 2025 season. Nabers set an NFL rookie record with 170 targets in 2024, while his 109 receptions broke a team record, and with him back in the lineup, the quintet of Johnson, Likely, Mooney, Fields, and Darius Slayton could legitimately be working with less than 70% of Jaxson Dart's available targets.

Kyle Monangai Remains a Dynasty Hold
Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai finished his rookie season as the fantasy RB30, and his situation appears stable heading into Year 2. The 2025 seventh-round pick got off to a predictably slow start and spent most of the season in a change-of-pace role behind D'Andre Swift, but he flashed moments of fantasy dominance that could show up with more regularity in his second season. From Weeks 7 through 13, which included a Week 9 contest missed by Swift and in which Monangai ran for 176 yards, the rookie was the RB11, scoring five touchdowns over that stretch. The Bears made no changes to the position through either free agency or the draft, suggesting a comfort level with how things went last season. Monangai's ceiling will be limited as long as Swift is in the lineup, but he has already provided glimpses of what he can do with a full workload, and he saw more usage in the passing game down the stretch of the regular season and into the playoffs. If that trend continues, RotoBaller's dynasty RB28 could add standalone value beyond what he offers as an insurance back.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Remains a Locked-in Dynasty Stud
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown came into the 2026 offseason as one of the safest high-value assets in dynasty, and nothing the Lions have done in the team-building period of the year has put that status in doubt. Detroit signed Greg Dortch to a one-year deal to replace the departing Kalif Raymond and added Kentucky receiver Kendrick Law in the fifth round of the NFL Draft, meaning that, for all intents and purposes, the Lions will return the same receiver grouping of St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Isaac TeSlaa. In 2025, with all three playing in 17 games, St. Brown earned a team-leading 31.3% target share en route to his third straight 1,400+ yard season and his third consecutive WR3 fantasy finish. He is currently RotoBaller's dynasty WR6, but at age 26, he may still be the most reliable receiver in the game.

Jonah Coleman Could Have Immediate Impact as Broncos' Short-Yardage Back
The Denver Broncos selected Washington running back Jonah Coleman with their first of two fourth-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, and The Athletic's Nick Kosmider believes he will have an immediate role as the Broncos' short-yardage back. Coleman joins a running back room of J.K. Dobbins and 2025 second-round pick RJ Harvey, who combined to see 12 carries from inside the five-yard line in 2025. Harvey was personally able to convert four of his seven goal line carries into scores, so he could still have some say in just how quickly Coleman claims the role, but regardless of how the division of labor shakes out in Denver, it could result in frustration for fantasy managers. Coleman is a well-rounded runner who can be trusted on passing downs as either a receiver or blocker, so there is a fair amount of overlap between the skillsets of all three backs. Based on draft capital and last year's usage, Dobbins is still likely to see the largest workload, at least to start the season, but Coleman is RotoBaller's dynasty RB29 and could see that ranking rise if he's truly able to carve out a meaningful role near the end zone.

Browns Say Jerry Jeudy Will Not Be Impacted by Rookies
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy led the team with 105 targets in 2025, and despite spending first and second round picks upgrading the position, general manager Andrew Berry told reporters shortly after the second night of the draft that the selections of KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston would have "zero impact" on Jeudy. He went on to explain his preference for building a receiver room like a basketball team with a variety of skill sets. In that context, Jeudy is likely to serve as the primary Z-receiver in Todd Monken's offense. So while his role may not be challenged by the drafting of a prototypical slot and a big-bodied X, he's unlikely to see the sort of volume that he has in his first two seasons with the Browns. Poor quarterback play and the highest drop rate since his rookie season led to an abysmal 47.6% reception percentage and only 602 yards, so Jeudy is still capable of topping his WR51 finish from 2025 with heightened efficiency, but a drop to his target share should be expected with the additions of Concepcion and Boston and an anticipated step forward from tight end Harold Fannin Jr., who already saw 103 targets as a rookie.

Xavier Worthy a Buy-Low Candidate for Dynasty Managers Following NFL Draft?
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy turned in an underwhelming season in 2025, recording 42 receptions for 532 yards and a touchdown on 73 targets across 14 games. Despite abundant target-earning opportunities in Kansas City for much of the season, Worthy's numbers fell across the board from his rookie year in 2024. Due to his poor performance, Worthy's dynasty value is declining heading into 2026. However, the Chiefs have yet to make notable changes to their pass-catching group this offseason. Kansas City used a fifth-round pick on University of Cincinnati wide receiver Cyrus Allen, but he's unlikely to play a significant role as a rookie. As a result, Worthy should have plenty of chances to put together a bounce-back campaign in 2026. While Worthy's NFL production to this point does not inspire a ton of confidence, dynasty managers may want to consider buying low on him given his expected role in Kansas City.

Skyler Bell Earning Comparisons to Elite NFL Wideout Following NFL Draft
Former UConn wide receiver Skyler Bell was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Per Ryan Talbot of syracuse.com, Bell has drawn comparisons to current Cincinnati Bengals superstar Ja'Marr Chase for his athleticism and big-play skillset with the ball in his hands. Bell was highly productive as a college senior in 2025, recording 101 receptions for 1,278 yards and 13 touchdowns across 13 games. A comparison to Chase is probably unfair to any young wide receiver, let alone a fourth-round pick. However, Bell should have a chance to make an immediate impact in a Bills' wide receiver room that appears to be searching for consistent contributors outside of D. Moore and Khalil Shakir. In dynasty formats, Bell could be a sleeper for managers to keep an eye on heading into 2026.

Jayden Daniels' Supporting Cast in Washington Remains Similar Following NFL Draft
After an electric rookie season in 2024, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels suffered through a disastrous sophomore campaign in 2025. Knee, hamstring, and elbow injuries limited him to just seven games played. Daniels also saw his efficiency as both a passer and a rusher drop across the board in the games he was healthy for. He averaged just 6.7 yards per pass attempt and 4.8 yards per carry in 2025, down from 7.4 yards per pass attempt and six yards per carry in 2024. Daniels should enter 2026 fully healthy, which obviously improves his odds for a bounce-back year. However, Washington used its lone selection in the first two rounds of the NFL Draft on the defensive side of the ball. While the Commanders did add Clemson wideout Antonio Williams in the third round, they left the offensive line in front of Daniels largely unchanged. Daniels elite dual-threat ability means his dynasty upside remains sky-high. Still, there are question marks around Daniels' supporting cast in Washington heading into his third NFL season.

Joe Burrow's Dynasty Value Remains Impacted by Injury Concerns
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow battled through yet another injury-marred season in 2025, missing nine games due to a toe injury. Dating back to the start of the 2023 season, Burrow has been sidelined by injury for 16 contests. When healthy in 2025, the 29-year-old remained highly productive, completing 66.8% of his pass attempts for 1,809 yards, 17 touchdowns, and five interceptions. Throughout Burrow's career, the offensive line play in front of him in Cincinnati has consistently been problematic. The Bengals added a pair of offensive linemen in the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting Auburn center Connor Lew in the fourth round and Duke guard Brian Parker II in the sixth round. However, neither player projects as an immediate difference-maker for a line that remains questionable heading into 2026. While Burrow is more than capable of turning in elite fantasy seasons, his dynasty value remains shrouded by his injury track record.

Andrei Iosivas Facing New Competition for Bengals' WR3 Role After NFL Draft
Across 17 games in 2025, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas recorded 33 receptions for 435 yards and two touchdowns on 58 targets. Over the past two seasons, the 26-year-old has established himself as the clear WR3 in Cincinnati behind star wideouts Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. When both Chase and Higgins are healthy, Iosivas does not have a clear path to consistent fantasy production. However, Higgins has missed 12 games over the past three seasons, which has periodically opened up opportunities for Iosivas. In the 2026 NFL Draft, Cincinnati used a fourth-round pick on talented Georgia wide receiver Colbie Young. While Young is far from a lock to beat out Iosivas for the Bengals WR3 role, Iosivas could now face yet another impediment to fantasy-relevant target opportunity in Cincinnati. As he heads into his fourth NFL season, Iosivas' dynasty value would likely be improved by a change in scenery.
