Devin Neal the Potential RB2 in New Orleans in his Sophomore Season
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara appears to be on his way out in New Orleans after the free-agent signing of do-it-all back Travis Etienne Jr. If Kamara is cut or retires this offseason, Devin Neal would be in line for RB2 duties and an expanded role in 2026 in his second year in the NFL. After being taken in the sixth round (184th overall) out of Kansas last year, the 22-year-old appeared in only 10 games (three starts) due to a hamstring injury and finished with 57 rushing attempts for 206 yards (3.6 yards per carry) and two touchdowns while adding 17 receptions for 104 yards through the air. The 5-foot-11, 213-pounder doesn't have a ton of speed or athleticism, but what he lacks in those areas, he makes up for in size and power. Neal was used in a goal-line role down the stretch last year with Kamara sidelined with a knee injury, and he could be a nice complement to Etienne in his sophomore season. His fantasy ceiling isn't incredibly high, but Neal could develop into a valuable between-the-tackles grinder for the Saints in years to come. He's currently ranked as the No. 70 dynasty RB at RotoBaller.

Does Ricky Pearsall Still Have Breakout Potential for Fantasy Managers?
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall has been an oft-injured disappointment through his first two seasons in the NFL after the Niners took him 31st overall in the 2024 draft. He's played in a total of 20 regular-season games (13 starts), catching 67 of his 99 targets for 928 yards and three touchdowns. Pearsall played in just nine games in 2025, finishing the regular season with 36 receptions for 528 yards and no touchdowns on 53 targets. The 25-year-old is still clearly in the team's long-term plans, but his already lengthy injury history hasn't endeared him to fantasy managers in dynasty leagues through his first two seasons in the league. The 49ers lost let Jauan Jennings walk in free agency and are expected to cut former first-rounder Brandon Aiyuk (knee), but they also added Mike Evans and Christian Kirk in free agency and drafted rookie De'Zhaun Stribling in the second round last month. Pearsall looked to be coming through for fantasy managers with a potential Year 2 breakout last year, recording 281 receiving yards in his first three games before the injury bug hit again. The good news is that Pearsall should be fully healthy this summer. Currently, he's RotoBaller's No. 47-ranked dynasty WR. He's a risk/reward buy-low candidate, but the team's offseason moves at the position prove that even the 49ers are unsure if Pearsall can be relied on.

Tory Horton's Dynasty Stock on the Decline Despite Big-Play Ability
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton (shin, groin) showed plenty of big-play ability and had a nose for the end zone in his first year in the NFL in 2025, catching 13 of his 22 targets for 161 yards and five touchdowns, but the 23-year-old played in only eight games (three starts) due to shin and groin injuries. The former fifth-round pick (166th overall) out of Colorado State still isn't 100% healthy during spring workouts as he heads into his sophomore campaign, although he's expected to be ready for training camp at the end of July. Horton possesses good speed (4.41-second 40-yard dash) and above-average route-running skills, but with Rashid Shaheed sticking around as the Seahawks look to defend their Super Bowl championship in 2026, Horton is unlikely to see much volume in an offense that lost coordinator Klint Kubiak. Although veteran Cooper Kupp's prime is well behind him, both he and Jake Bobo will remain involved in some capacity as well. Horton could be a decent buy-low dynasty candidate, but his injury-riddled rookie campaign has his long-term stock on the decline. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 81 fantasy WR.

Tank Dell Improving, But Not 100 Percent Yet
Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) has made a lot of progress in his recovery from a devastating knee injury that he suffered in December of 2024 in which he dislocated his knee and tore the ACL, MCL, and LCL ligaments, according to KPRC2 Sports' Aaron Wilson. While Dell is making progress since having two surgeries on his knee and is running and cutting in his routes, he's not 100% yet. "Tank Dell looked good," fellow wideout Nico Collins said. "I'm glad he's back now and getting his groove back. You know how much this game means to him, and nobody wants to get hurt the way he did. So, his work ethic, his mindset on the road to recovery, was amazing. So, it's only right he gets back on the field with us, with his brothers, and get back to what he's been doing. I'm happy he's back." The 26-year-old will most likely be limited in the team's upcoming organized team activities at the end of March, but the Texans are still holding out hope that he'll contribute at some point in 2026. Whenever Dell is finally available to Houston again, he'll be competing for a role in a suddenly crowded receiver room that includes Collins, Jayden Higgins, Jaylin Noel, and Xavier Hutchinson, and there's no guarantee that he'll be able to return to the form that he showed in his first 25 games (18 starts), when he caught 98 of his 156 targets for 1,376 yards and 10 touchdowns. Dell is a major fantasy question mark and is currently ranked as RotoBaller's No. 64 dynasty WR.

Sean Tucker's Dynasty Upside Remains Limited by Crowded Backfield Picture
Across 17 games in 2025, Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker logged 354 scrimmage yards and eight touchdowns on 94 touches. Tucker has flashed upside over the first three seasons of his career with Tampa Bay, including a three-touchdown performance against the Buffalo Bills in Week 11 of 2025. However, Tucker has consistently found himself buried on the Buccaneers' running back depth chart and has never been able to carve out a consistent, every-week role in the team's offense. A similar dynamic seems likely to be at play in 2026, as Tampa Bay added veteran back Kenneth Gainwell in free agency to complement RB1 Bucky Irving. Tucker could have a chance to emerge should either Irving or Gainwell suffer an injury, which gives him some deep-league value. Still, Tucker's dynasty value would likely benefit from a change in scenery as he enters his age-25 season in 2026.

Is Puka Nacua's Dynasty Value Impacted by Potential Off-Field Concerns?
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua put together a dominant season in 2025, recording 129 receptions for 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns on 166 targets across 16 games. However, some off-field issues have emerged for the 24-year-old this offseason, as he's currently embroiled in a civil lawsuit and checked himself into a rehab facility in early April. There's zero question about Nacua's ability to produce on the field, as he's established himself as arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL over his first three professional seasons. Nacua's career average of 95.3 receiving yards per game is the best mark in the history of the NFL. To this point, he's also avoided any discipline from the NFL and is expected to be fully ready for the start of the 2026 season. Still, Nacua's off-field concerns bring some volatility to his dynasty profile. He remains an elite dynasty wideout overall, but managers in startup drafts may want to consider knocking him down a place or two in their rankings.

Can Alec Pierce Build on Encouraging 2025 Production in 2026 and Beyond?
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) is currently recovering from offseason ankle surgery. However, the 26-year-old is expected to be ready for the start of the 2026 season after signing a four-year, $114 million contract with Indianapolis earlier this spring. Pierce put together the most productive season of his career in 2025, hauling in 47 receptions for 1,003 yards and six touchdowns on 84 targets across 15 games. While Pierce's ability to win down the field remains the best aspect of his profile, he averaged a career-high 5.6 targets per game last season. He'll also be asked to step into a true WR1 role with the Colts in 2026 following the team's trade of former wideout Michael Pittman Jr. to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Assuming Pierce makes it through his current ankle issue without any hiccups, his dynasty stock is rising after his promising 2025 campaign.

Keenan Allen's Dynasty Stock Falling with NFL Future in Limbo
Veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen put together a solid season in 2025, recording 81 receptions for 777 yards and three touchdowns on 122 targets across 17 games. The 34-year-old currently remains unsigned, but Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz has not ruled out the possibility of Allen returning to the Chargers for 2026. Allen did not sign with the Chargers last year until early August, so a similar situation could be in store for the upcoming year. While Allen proved that he can still be a productive possession wideout in 2025, he's no longer the same player he once was at his peak. The Chargers also offer plenty of target competition between wide receivers Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Tre' Harris, and tight end Oronde Gadsden. As he enters his mid-30s, Allen's dynasty value is trending in the wrong direction even if he returns to Los Angeles for the 2026 season.

Drake London Remains a Dynasty WR1 Entering 2026
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London suffered a PCL strain in his left knee in Week 11 of the 2025 season, which caused him to miss time down the stretch. Even still, the 24-year-old put together a productive season, hauling in 68 receptions for 919 yards and seven touchdowns on 112 targets across 12 games. When healthy, London has established himself as a true lead pass-catcher in the NFL. London has averaged 9.3 targets per game over the last two seasons and should dominate targets in Atlanta once again in 2026. The quarterback situation in Atlanta remains a limiting factor for London, as neither Michael Penix Jr. (knee) nor Tua Tagovailoa should inspire much confidence in fantasy managers. Still, London has proven to be a reliable fantasy wideout in Atlanta despite the organization's inability to land on a franchise quarterback since trading away Matt Ryan after London's rookie year. In dynasty formats, London profiles as a mid-tier WR1 heading into his age-25 campaign.

Bucky Irving Potentially Undervalued After Disappointing Sophomore Season
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving was unable to recapture the rookie season magic that made him fantasy's RB14 in 2024. Missing seven games in 2025 with foot and shoulder injuries, Irving was absent for much of Tampa's early-season success, returning to a unit that looked largely out of sorts to finish the year, resulting in the firing of first-year offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard. While Irving's touchdown totals were way down from 2024, his 86.5 yards from scrimmage per game still had him on a 17-game pace of 1,470 yards and almost seven scores. New offensive coordinator Zac Robinson arrived from Atlanta with a stated goal of involving Irving in the passing game, as he had Bijan Robinson, and while the free agent acquisition of Kenneth Gainwell is likely to take a solid chunk of receiving work off his plate, Irving is potentially being slept on as RotoBaller's dynasty RB16 and falling. With the Buccaneers' offensive line expected to be healthier in 2026, his per carry average could look closer to the 5.4 yards from his rookie campaign than the 3.4 yard clip of 2025, and with Gainwell only once handling more than 85 carries in his five-year career, Irving should see enough total volume to put him back into the dynasty RB1 conversation.

Davante Adams a Dynasty Hold Who Could See His Value Slip
In his first season with the Los Angeles Rams, wide receiver Davante Adams led the league with 14 touchdown receptions in 14 games on his way to a WR8 finish. While the Rams are again considered an early Super Bowl favorite, and the high-powered offense could put Adams in position for another double-digit touchdown campaign, at RotoBaller's dynasty WR39, he's best viewed as more of a hold than a buy. With 11 of those 14 scores coming from within the 10-yard line, some of his other metrics looked less impressive, even while playing with MVP Matthew Stafford. For the first time since 2018, Adams failed to top 1,000 yards, and his 54.1% reception rate was among the lowest in the league. At 33 years old, the back and hamstring issues that cost him three games are no less of a threat to return. While his elite skill set when space gets tight should not be discounted, Kyren Williams and Blake Corum combined for 15 attempts from within the five-yard line that did not result in scores. Should some of those opportunities dry up for Adams in 2026, he'll be hard-pressed to repeat his WR1 finish from a year ago.

The Pendulum Swinging Back on Emeka Egbuka's Dynasty Value
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka had one of the best starts to a career the league has ever seen. Through the first five weeks of his 2025 rookie campaign, Egbuka caught 25 passes for 445 yards and five touchdowns and saw his consensus dynasty value rise all the way to WR8, becoming one of the most sought-after players in the game. A second-half collapse saw the Buccaneers fall out of playoff contention, and no player took a bigger hit than Egbuka, seemingly unable to connect with quarterback Baker Mayfield down the stretch. Dynasty managers who bought high watched his value crumble, but with veteran receiver Mike Evans moving on to San Francisco and the team replacing first-year offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard with McVay disciple Zac Robinson, Egbuka has been widely viewed as an offseason winner, as reflected by his rising dynasty ranking, back up to RotoBaller's WR10. Still part of a crowded group of pass catchers, it's unlikely he will return to his early rookie season peak, but the 23-year-old Egbuka can still be a building-block piece for any dynasty roster, and the week-winning ceiling he's already displayed will help him hold value moving forward.

Michael Pittman Jr. Undervalued in an Environment Fit for His Skill Set
When veteran wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the opening days of the new league year, his dynasty value took a slight hit. With recent reporting that 42-year-old Aaron Rodgers is close to returning to the team, Pittman could now be viewed as an underrated dynasty trade target at RotoBaller's WR53. The Steelers lost running back Kenneth Gainwell in free agency, while tight end Jonnu Smith remains unsigned, leaving the team without two of its leading receivers from 2025 and vacating a total of 135 targets between them. Coming into Pittsburgh with an average depth of target below 8.5 yards in three of his last four seasons, Pittman should become an immediate favorite of Rodgers, as the latter's game has become largely defined by his unwillingness to hold onto the ball. His 2.56-second average time to throw in 2025 was longer only than Tua Tagovailoa among qualified starters, and with Pittman one of the most likely benefactors of those short developing routes, he could volume his way well past his current value in 2026, becoming a useful WR3/flex piece for contending managers.

Rhamondre Stevenson a Quality Dynasty Target in a Still-Improving Offense
New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson finished 2025 with 948 yards from scrimmage and nine touchdowns, good enough for an RB25 finish despite missing three games. Heading into his sixth season, however, the 28-year-old former fourth-round pick has fallen to RB44 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings, largely on the assumption that second-year back TreVeyon Henderson will take over a larger share of the Patriots' backfield. Even if true, New England projects to have one of the best rushing attacks in the NFL in 2026 after continuing to invest in the offensive line, as well as fullback and tight end. Should the team add current Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown on or after June 1st, pairing the three-time Pro Bowler with 2025 MVP runner-up Drake Maye, the offense as a whole could take a massive leap forward. With three years remaining on the extension he signed in 2024, Stevenson should continue to see enough involvement to outperform his current cost to acquire before even factoring in the insurance upside of splitting work with a back who has missed significant time to injuries dating back to his college days.

Giants Not Looking to Sign Odell Beckham Jr. Right Now
New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh said the team remains in contact with free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. about a reunion, but that the Giants will "play it out over the next month and into training camp" before making a decision, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN. The 33-year-old former 12th overall pick by the Giants in 2014 out of LSU worked out with the team last month and "looked good," according to Harbaugh. OBJ is interested in returning to the Big Apple, but Harbaugh said it has to make sense for both sides. The G-Men lost Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency this offseason, but they added Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin III in free agency and drafted impressive rookie Malachi Fields. They also have Malik Nabers (knee) and Darius Slayton (abdomen), who are both recovering from injuries. Beckham sat out all of the 2025 season and had just nine catches for 55 yards with the Miami Dolphins in 2024. The veteran wideout broke his leg with the Giants and has suffered a torn ACL twice, making him a long shot to make a big impact in the NFL again with the Giants or any other team.
