Free agent running back Najee Harris (Achilles) remains unsigned as of March 20. The veteran running back spent most of his one-year deal with the Los Angeles Chargers on injured reserve, and it's possible that teams are being cautious with Harris' free agency due to the injury (or, at least, they don't feel any need to rush a signing). The former first-round pick had a spotless injury history through four years in Pittsburgh, but a fluke preseason fireworks incident involving his eye, followed by a Week 3 Achilles tear, really derailed his fantasy value in 2025. He finished the year with 61 rushing yards and 25 receiving yards across three games, snapping his four-year streak of 1,000-plus rushing yards. Given his age (27) and injury history, Harris is no longer in the mix for a starting running back job. Instead, he'll likely sign somewhere that offers him meaningful snaps in a No. 2 running back role. If he's available to pick up in dynasty leagues and you have a roster spot, it wouldn't hurt to take a chance on Harris. He could end up being a valuable handcuff in 2026, and there's even a slim chance that he could have standalone value as a low-end RB3/flex depending on his landing spot.

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson was already an undisputed high-end RB1, but his tremendous fantasy value is growing even larger following the team's offseason moves. The Falcons' new regime, led by head coach Kevin Stefanski and president of football Matt Ryan, allowed Tyler Allgeier to depart for Arizona in free agency, leaving Robinson as the only relevant name in Atlanta's backfield. That's an unfamiliar sight for Robinson, who had spent the first three years of his NFL career losing some touches to Allgeier. We can't rule out Atlanta bringing in another running back via free agency or the draft, but for now, Robinson has the backfield all to himself. That bodes well for the 24-year-old's chances to build upon an incredible 2025 in which he tallied 1,478 rushing yards, 820 receiving yards, and 11 touchdowns. If he can recoup even half of the eight touchdowns that Allgeier vultured from him, Robinson could be the favorite to finish 2026 as the overall RB1 in all fantasy formats.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (Achilles) is working his way back from injury, and his medical status has started to impact his price tag in both dynasty and redraft leagues. Kittle isn't expected to miss too much time in 2026; he'll likely be sidelined for the first four weeks or so. Still, that short-term absence is already lowering his ADP in redraft leagues, and the overall recovery process is slightly reducing his price in dynasty leagues. Dynasty managers want to trade for Kittle knowing that they're getting a healthy top-tier TE1, and while Kittle fit that description before his injury, there's always a little risk and concern associated with a player coming back from an Achilles tear. Factors baked into a slightly reduced price tag include potential injury setbacks, Kittle being less than 100% when healthy, and the risk of re-injury. While Kittle is a borderline top-three tight end when healthy, his injury is already starting to influence his pricing this offseason. He's a typical "hold" in most dynasty leagues for now.

The Athletic's Daniel Popper believes Los Angeles Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden will play in a role that "maximizes his receiving skill set" under new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel in 2026. The Chargers signed tight end Charlie Kolar, who is an elite run blocker and an "ideal fit" in McDaniel's movement offense. He also has upside as a pass-catcher, but Gadsden will be the Bolts' clear top pass-catching TE after he impressed in his first year in the NFL in 2025 with 49 catches on 69 targets for 664 yards and three touchdowns in 15 regular-season games (seven starts). His numbers were good enough to make him the TE16 in half-PPR scoring as a rookie. Gadsden also ranked 14th at his position in yards per route run. He's an ascending player with a good fit in the offensive scheme as he heads into his second year in the league. For fantasy managers who wait at the TE position, Gadsden is a great late-round target with upside.

Dynasty | The Panthers have traded quarterback Andy Dalton to the Eagles. Dynasty Analysis: Dalton should slide right in as the backup to Jalen Hurts over Tanner McKee, whose roster spot is now in real danger. The Red Rifle has certainly had his moments over his 15 years but will now join his sixth team after a long stretch in Cincinnati followed by stops in Dallas, Chicago, New Orleans and Carolina. He was made expendable by the signing of Kenny Pickett with the Panthers but holds no real dynasty value outside of 2QB/Superflex leagues.

Dynasty | The Colts have signed wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine. Dynasty Analysis: We all remember Westbrook-Ikhine from his crazy 2024 season where he scored nine touchdowns for the Titans, mostly on deep balls. Unfortunately, that success didn't carry over to Miami last season where he mustered only 11 catches for 89 scoreless yards. NWI is a depth signing for the Colts and doesn't really carry much dynasty value unless Indianapolis really fails to add anything else to the depth chart after the trade of Michael Pittman Jr.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington finds himself in a very crowded position group. However, he has likely done enough to defray any concerns about his volume going forward. Washington opened 2025 as the clear-cut No. 3 receiver behind Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas Jr., and he continued to face heavy competition when Hunter tore his ACL and the Jaguars brought in Jakobi Meyers. Still, Washington ended up breaking out with a career-high 58 catches, 847 yards, and five touchdowns. Not only did he lead the Jaguars in receiving yards and touchdowns, but at WR27 overall, he was also the team's highest-scoring fantasy receiver. Given his consistency over the back half of the season in a crowded position group, we can confidently say that Washington's third-year breakout was not a fluke. He should remain one of Lawrence's favorite targets even with Hunter, Meyers, and Thomas all present next year. That may result in an occasional dud game from Washington, but for the most part, we expect him to be a reliable fantasy contributor in a Jacksonville offense with plenty of targets to go around. We would advise against selling high on Washington in dynasty leagues, because his fantasy relevance is just getting started. He remains a high-end WR3/flex option for 2026 fantasy football.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has finally started to deliver high-end results in fantasy football, and it's happening somewhat consistently. One of the biggest flaws with Williams early in his career (outside of a pair of suspensions) was that he had upside but couldn't be trusted on any given Sunday. In other words, he was a boom-or-bust receiver with no way to predict when he would break out. That started to change in 2024, as he flashed more reliability, and he truly took his consistency to the next level in 2025. In 10 games following the Lions' Week 8 bye, Williams scored 12+ fantasy points on eight occasions. He had just two games with fewer than four catches during that span, and he finished the season as the overall WR12 in PPR leagues. Ranking among the top 12 is impressive in itself, but it's even more fascinating when you consider that Williams had been a little streaky to start the year. If he can replicate the back half of his 2025 season over the entire 2026 season, we're looking at a potential top-five fantasy receiver. With that in mind, we wouldn't fault dynasty managers for sending out trade offers for Williams. His price is pretty high already, but there might still be an opportunity to get him for cheaper than what he'll be worth after the 2026 season. And for what it's worth, we're not concerned about his role alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown. The two have repeatedly shown that they can co-exist. They both played 17 games in 2025, and they still both managed to finish as top-12 fantasy receivers. There are more than enough targets to go around in Detroit to support big years from the Lions' two primary pass-catchers.

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has emerged as a low-end WR1 in fantasy football, but he still continues to fall a little short of his true ceiling. Collins has played five NFL seasons so far, and he has yet to play all 17 games in a single campaign. Injuries limited him to 15 contests in 2025, resulting in a final stat line of 71 catches, 1,117 yards, and six touchdowns. These numbers were good enough to rank as the overall WR8, giving him a top-12 receiver finish for the second time in three years. Collins has missed an average of 3.8 games per season, which is valuable playing time that could have otherwise been used to accumulate fantasy points. His fantasy output itself is impressive given the inconsistency we saw from quarterback C.J. Stroud in 2025, but managers would now like to see Collins stay healthy for a full season so that he doesn't force them to find a replacement option at random points throughout the season.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze will be tasked with handling more volume in 2026 after the team traded away DJ Moore this offseason. Odunze got off to an incredibly hot start last year, ranking as the overall WR3 through the first four weeks. However, the Bears then had their bye week, and he averaged just three catches per game the rest of the way. Things got worse for the former first-round pick as he suffered a stress fracture in his foot prior to Week 14 and missed the final five regular-season contests. He was one of the few skill players who didn't make a major leap under first-year head coach Ben Johnson, finishing the year with a modest 44 catches, 661 yards, and six touchdowns. He was the WR41 overall, finishing outside the top 40 fantasy receivers for the second year in a row. While Odunze's 2025 season was forgettable, fantasy managers should feel optimistic about his future outlook. First of all, he's healthy; it's always a good sign for players to get a clean bill of health entering the offseason. Furthermore, he's expected to fetch even more volume as the Bears look to replace Moore and his 85 vacated targets. Some of that volume will go to rookie breakouts Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland, but a significant amount should head Odunze's way, too. The 23-year-old should be drafted as a top-36 fantasy receiver in 2026 redraft leagues. In dynasty formats, he has quickly become an intriguing buy-low candidate given his subpar results in 2025 and the likelihood that he'll bounce back in 2026.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield already delivered subpar results during the 2025 season, and moving forward, he'll also be without one of his favorite targets. Mike Evans departed for the San Francisco 49ers in free agency, causing Mayfield to lose a perennial 1,000-yard threat with major touchdown upside. The veteran quarterback was the overall QB10 in 2023 and QB4 in 2024, but he fell to QB12 with 27 total touchdowns, 14 turnovers, and 36 sacks last year. We could still see Mayfield rank as a top-12 quarterback in 2026, especially with Zac Robinson replacing Josh Grizzard as the Bucs' offensive coordinator. However, it's going to be tougher for him to routinely carve up defenses without Evans at his disposal. Fortunately for Mayfield, the Bucs have other key pass-catching weapons. Chris Godwin Jr. remains a productive veteran, and Emeka Egbuka flashed glimpses of being a Rookie of the Year candidate in 2025. If Godwin can stay healthy for a full season and Egbuka can take a substantial second-year leap, Tampa Bay may be able to counteract the effect of Evans' departure, vaulting Mayfield back into the top-10 range. There's a wide range of possible outcomes for the former first-round pick, and depending on the asking price, he could be an appealing buy-low target in dynasty leagues this offseason.

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis is one of the most appealing handcuffs in fantasy football. Not only does he play for a highly productive offense, but he runs behind one of the game's highest-scoring running backs. However, managers who invested in Davis' upside as a handcuff have been forced to exercise extreme patience. We haven't yet seen him step into the lead-back role for an extended period of time, as James Cook has missed just one game throughout his four-year NFL career. It's not like Davis has standalone value when Cook is healthy, so he and his managers continue to just wait for an opportunity. The 26-year-old ended up finishing 2025 with just 275 rushing yards, 86 receiving yards, and a pair of touchdowns, ranking as the RB61 in PPR leagues. Now, he's halfway through his rookie contract but remains in a familiar position. He's buried in the backup role as long as Cook is healthy. The best course of action for fantasy managers is to buy Davis for cheap if you also have Cook on your roster. He offers more value to you as a handcuff than to other managers as a mere bench piece, so you can justify trading a late-round pick for him. If you don't have Cook, though, it doesn't make much sense just to trade for Davis in hopes that he maybe has an unforeseen breakout game here and there.

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams remains the workhorse option heading into the 2026 season. Williams enjoyed a career resurgence during his first season in Dallas, totaling 1,201 rushing yards, 137 receiving yards, and 13 touchdowns. He was the overall RB12 in PPR leagues, setting the best mark of his career to this point. For his efforts, Williams was rewarded with a three-year, $24 million contract that assures he's the Cowboys' primary ball-carrier for years to come. We do expect Jaydon Blue to get more involved going forward, but he's more of a change-of-pace and handcuff. Blue isn't going to threaten Williams' role in 2026. As a result, Williams remains a fringe top-12 fantasy running back with tremendous touchdown upside in a high-scoring Cowboys offense. It doesn't make sense to buy Williams at his elevated price in dynasty leagues, but it's also too early to sell high on him. He's firmly in the "hold" range this offseason.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase continued to produce at a high level in 2025. Even with inconsistent quarterback play, Chase caught 125 passes for 1,412 yards and eight touchdowns over 16 games, ranking as the WR4 in PPR leagues. He didn't replicate his overall WR1 finish from 2024, but he still offered top-tier results for his fantasy managers down the stretch. Most importantly, Chase didn't let quarterback issues alter his productivity too much. Sure, he looked much better when Joe Burrow was healthy, but he still ranked as a WR1 when catching passes from Jake Browning and Joe Flacco. With Burrow entering the offseason on a clean bill of health, Chase finds himself back in the high-end WR1 tier. In fact, he has the potential to rank as the overall WR1 as long as Burrow stays healthy for most or all of the 2026 campaign. The LSU product has been a top-12 fantasy receiver in all five of his pro campaigns, as well as a top-five receiver in three of the five. He remains a hot commodity in the first round of redraft leagues going forward, and he's (justifiably) one of the most expensive trade targets in dynasty formats.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston had the best season of his young career in 2025, and he could make an even bigger impact with a potentially larger target share next year. Johnson finished his third NFL campaign with 51 catches, 735 yards, and eight touchdowns. This ended up being just four fewer catches and 24 more yards than his 2024 marks, as well as the same number of trips to the end zone. His 2025 stats resulted in a career-best WR34 finish. The 24-year-old continued to deal with some of the struggles that plagued him at the start of his career, including drops. However, he has started to show signs of turning the corner and being a productive fantasy option week in and week out. Now, Johnston could be headed for even more volume after teammate Keenan Allen hit free agency. Allen leaves behind a whopping 112 vacated targets that will likely be allocated to some combination of Johnston, Ladd McConkey, and Tre' Harris. We wouldn't be surprised to see Johnston get triple-digit targets in 2026, and if his hands become a little more reliable, he could push for 1,000 yards. All in all, he has top-30 receiver upside heading into his fourth NFL season, especially with Allen no longer stealing volume.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba did it all in 2025 in just his third year in the NFL after the Seahawks took him 20th overall in the 2023 draft out of Ohio State. Smith-Njigba set career-highs across the board, led the NFL with 1,793 receiving yards, and capped it all off by winning a Super Bowl ring and the Offensive Player of the Year award. The 24-year-old caught 119 of his 163 targets and added 10 touchdowns in 17 regular-season starts. He added 17 catches for another 199 yards and two touchdowns in three playoff games. There's a good chance JSN will be one of the first receivers off the board in the first couple of rounds of fantasy football drafts later this year. He also had 1,000 receiving yards last year and now has 3,551 yards and 20 touchdowns on 282 receptions in 51 games in his first three years in the NFL. Smith-Njigba has quickly become an elite threat at his position with tremendous yards-after-the-catch ability.

The Kansas City Chiefs failed to make the postseason for the first time in a decade in 2025, and star quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) also tore his ACL and LCL late in the year. Yup, it was a season Chiefs fans would like to forget. Mahomes ended up playing in 14 games in his ninth year in the league, completing a career-low 62.7% of his passes for 3,587 yards, 22 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. His 22 TD passes were his lowest since his rookie season, when he appeared in just one game. The 30-year-old added 64 carries for a career-high 422 rushing yards and five touchdowns to finish just inside the top 12 at the position in 2025. Mahomes is hoping he'll be fully recovered from knee surgery for the start of the 2026 season this fall, but it's not a guarantee. We wouldn't bet against the six-time Pro Bowler, two-time All-Pro, and three-time Super Bowl MVP, but Mahomes' injury uncertainty definitely puts him on more of the low end of QB1 options for the upcoming fantasy football season. If the gunslinger's mobility is affected at all next season, his fantasy ceiling and floor will definitely be lowered.

ESPN's John Keim writes that the Washington Commanders are still seeking another receiver "who can serve as a No. 2 wideout" opposite Terry McLaurin this offseason. The Commanders did sign backups Dyami Brown and Van Jefferson and also re-signed Treylon Burks, but they still want someone who can be a true No. 2 behind McLaurin, like Deebo Samuel Sr. was last year. An intriguing name that Keim thinks the Commanders could pursue is San Francisco 49ers receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) once he's released. The team is aware of Aiyuk's desire to play with quarterback Jayden Daniels, but they likely won't sign him for more than a one-year, prove-it deal after he missed all of the 2025 season. The Commanders could also look to the upcoming NFL draft for another wideout to pair with McLaurin. Neither McLaurin nor Daniels was healthy last year, leading to a disappointing season overall for the franchise. If McLaurin and Daniels stay healthy in 2026, he could be a solid WR2 for fantasy managers, regardless of whether they bring another WR.

Dynasty | The Eagles have signed running back Dameon Pierce. Dynasty Analysis: The former Texan has fallen on hard times, failing to match his rookie total of 939 rushing yards in the past four seasons combined. Pierce spent time with the Chiefs last year after being cut by Houston and will attempt to carve out a role as a backup or special teams player with the Eagles. However, his dynasty value has cratered and it's hard to see him being roster worthy.

Thankfully for fantasy managers, Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert's playoff woes don't count. Herbert was named a Pro Bowler for the second time in his career in 2025, but he looked bad again in an ugly playoff loss to the New England Patriots. During the regular season, the 28-year-old completed 66.4% of his passes for 3,727 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions in 16 games to finish as the QB10 in overall fantasy points. He added a career-high 83 rushing attempts for 498 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. The fact that L.A.'s offensive line was so banged up and ineffective led to Herbert taking off and running more than he ever has in his career. It helped him stay in the top-12 overall fantasy QBs. With a healthier offensive line in 2026 and with new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel leading the offense, Herbert should be in better hands. He might even return to the 4,000-yard passing mark, which he hasn't reached since his third year in the league in 2022. Herbert's dynasty and redraft stock is on the rise, making him at least a low-end QB1 target in drafts later this year.
