With the Cleveland Browns selecting two wideouts within the first 39 picks of the 2026 NFL Draft, incumbent wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has been viewed as one of fantasy's biggest offseason losers, falling all the way to WR85 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. While no real argument can be made that his situation has improved, Jeudy is only one year removed from a WR15 finish, and he did lead the team with 105 targets in 2025, though his league-worst 47.6% reception rate resulted in only 50 catches. With a healthy Deshaun Watson back in the mix and Shedeur Sanders having another year of development under his belt after starting the final seven games of 2025, the quarterback play in Cleveland could be at least marginally better, resulting in a higher quality of target. Even if the improved receiver room limits him to fewer than 100 opportunities, with him priced at his absolute floor, the 27-year-old Jeudy should still see enough of a role to make him a worthwhile throw-in as part of a larger deal or a late-round swing in dynasty startups.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Skyler Bell may not see the field immediately as a rookie, taking a monumental step up from FBS Independent Connecticut to the NFL, but his unique versatility could allow him to play across the formation, creating multiple paths to playing time. Bell is slightly undersized at 6'0" and 185 pounds, and he drew some draft day comps to current Bills slot receiver Khalil Shakir, but most of his collegiate success came on the outside. As a fourth-round pick, there's little pressure for him to earn a starting role out of training camp, but his ability to back up multiple receiver positions while tied to one of the league's elite quarterback talents makes him a player worth looking at in the second half of rookie drafts. At RotoBaller's rookie WR18, Bell is a low-cost investment whose outlandish college production and fantasy-friendly landing spot point to one of the higher potential ceilings from the bottom of the draft board.

One year removed from an Offensive Rookie of the Year-winning season that had him in the conversation as the number one overall asset in superflex dynasty leagues, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has fallen notably in consensus rankings, often lasting to the 1-2 turn in dynasty startups. Unlike Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, who saw a similar fall from grace after a historic rookie season, most of Daniels' sophomore struggles can be blamed on injuries, both to himself and to his already thin receiving core. Heading into 2026, both Daniels and Terry McLaurin are projected at full health, and the Commanders have surrounded their third-year quarterback with an interesting group of pass-catchers, adding tight end Chig Okonkwo and running back Rachaad White through free agency before spending a third-round pick on slot receiver Antonio Williams. With the offense around him arguably the strongest it's been since coming into the league as the second overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Daniels current ranking of RotoBaller's QB4 could represent a floor that he may not return to for several years, making him by no means a low-cost buy, but a potentially undervalued one.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas caught only 33 passes for 435 yards and two scores as a third-year player in 2025, only twice turning in a weekly fantasy finish as the WR30 or better. With both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins remaining relatively healthy, Iosivas' ceiling was unsurprisingly capped, operating primarily out of the slot in three receiver sets and regularly seeing less than a double-digit target share. Cincinnati added Georgia wide receiver Colbie Young in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and while the former Bulldog and Hurricane spent more than 92% of his time on the outside in three of four collegiate seasons, any additional competition is bad news for a player whose dynasty value is already weighted so heavily by the depth chart ahead of him. The Bengals could also see a return to health from somewhat forgotten 2024 fourth-round pick Erick All Jr., whose presence as a traditional inline tight end could allow Mike Gesicki to spend more time in the slot in favor of Iosivas. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR142, Iosivas still offers unique insurance upside given the overall strength of Cincinnati's offense and the fact that the team essentially has two number one receivers who at some point could miss time, but with his already low standalone value seemingly taking a hit, he is no longer a player that needs to be held under any and all circumstances.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears missed more time due to an ankle injury in 2025 and finished with a career-low 283 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 72 carries while catching 45 passes for 264 yards as a pass-catcher on 50 targets in 13 games (one start). The 24-year-old third-rounder out of Tulane in 2023 has impressive dual-threat abilities on the football field, but they haven't really translated to fantasy production in his three years in the NFL, and injuries in the last two years haven't helped his cause. Spears had a career-high 453 rushing yards and only two touchdowns in 17 games with Tennessee as a rookie. At this point in his career going into the 2026 campaign, Spears' primary fantasy football value comes in PPR leagues. Durability concerns and the fact that the Titans drafted RB Nicholas Singleton have made Spears a faller in terms of his dynasty value going into the upcoming season. If RB1 Tony Pollard were to miss time due to injury in 2026, Singleton, rather than Spears, could be tasked with lead-back duties. RotoBaller has Spears ranked as the No. 63 RB in dynasty leagues.

Make no mistake about it, Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane's four-year, $68 million contract extension that he signed on Wednesday is bad news for Jaylen Wright's fantasy stock in dynasty leagues. In Wright's second NFL season in 2025, he had nearly identical numbers to his rookie campaign while playing in five fewer games, although he was a bit more efficient with his touches and got more done after contact. The 23-year-old former fourth-round selection in 2024 out of the University of Tennessee saw 70 carries for 288 yards (4.1 yards per carry) and two touchdowns while adding five catches on nine targets for 44 yards as a pass-catcher in 10 games -- he missed the first six weeks while recovering from knee surgery. Wright was the RB2 behind Achane and ahead of short-yardage back Ollie Gordon II, and that should be the pecking order again going into Week 1 of the 2026 season. RotoBaller has Wright ranked as the No. 69 dynasty RB, but managers in those formats who have Achane rostered may want to consider buying low on Wright for insurance. If anything were to happen to Achane, Wright would be Miami's clear RB1 and would be a weekly fantasy starter in all formats.

The Miami Dolphins signed starting running back De'Von Achane to a four-year, $68 million contract extension on Wednesday, which is bad news for both Ollie Gordon II and Jaylen Wright in dynasty/keeper leagues. With Achane sticking around long term and a disappointing rookie campaign for Gordon, the 22-year-old is all the way down to No. 72 at the position in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. After being selected in the sixth round (179th overall) last year out of Oklahoma State, he saw 70 carries for 199 yards (2.8 yards per carry) and three touchdowns, adding just seven receptions for 32 yards and another score through the air in 17 games (one start). The Texas native has a large frame for an RB at 6-foot-2, 225 pounds, and it likely pigeonholes him into a short-yardage/goal-line role in Miami moving forward. As long as Achane and Jaylen Wright stay healthy, Gordon's path to a significant backfield role will be limited. In redraft formats in 2026, Gordon isn't even ranked in RotoBaller's top-100 RBs.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson turned in the best season of his career in 2025, recording 43 receptions for 408 yards and eight touchdowns on 56 targets across 15 games. While Parkinson's production can't be ignored, all signs point to regression heading into 2026. The 27-year-old has never averaged even four targets per game in any of his six NFL seasons, leading his fantasy outlook to be heavily reliant on touchdown-scoring. Additionally, Parkinson faces significant competition for tight end snaps in Los Angeles from the combination of Tyler Higbee, 2025 second-rounder Terrance Ferguson, and 2026 second-rounder Max Klare. The Rams are known for using multiple-tight-end personnel groupings at a high rate, which helps Parkinson's playing time outlook. Still, expecting him to provide consistent fantasy production every week looks like a losing proposition for fantasy managers. RotoBaller currently ranks Parkinson as the 49th-best tight end for dynasty formats.

NFL reporter Adam Schefter said on ESPN's Get Up that the Green Bay Packers expect All-Pro pass-rusher Micah Parsons (knee) to miss the early part of the 2026 season while he recovers from the torn ACL that he suffered on Dec. 14 last year against the Denver Broncos. With that said, Parsons will be a candidate to be placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list to begin the regular season. Parsons could potentially miss the first three to four games this fall, but as Schefter points out, we are still around five months away from Week 1, so Parsons has plenty of time to beat his current timetable. Green Bay sent two first-round picks and defensive tackle Kenny Clark to the Dallas Cowboys to acquire Parsons before the start of last season. The 26-year-old made an immediate impact in his new digs, tallying 12.5 sacks and 41 tackles (19 solo) in 14 games before suffering his season-ending knee injury. The Packers' defense was not the same the rest of the way. Parsons' IDP fantasy stock will slip slightly this year because he might not be ready to go by Week 1, but he should still be considered a top-20 defensive lineman.

The 22nd overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton had his rookie season disrupted by an ankle injury that caused him to miss eight games. However, the 23-year-old flashed high-end upside when on the field, recording 737 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 156 touches across nine games. Heading into 2026, Hampton should be fully healthy for training camp and projects as the clear RB1 in Los Angeles. He'll also get the benefit of working in a revamped Chargers offense that should feature a significantly improved offensive line and will be directed by a new play-caller in Mike McDaniel. As long as he can avoid injuries, Hampton looks like an obvious breakout candidate entering 2026 and should be valued as an RB1 by dynasty managers.

After logging just 65 touches across 17 games as a rookie in 2024, Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum carved out a much larger role in his team's offense in his second NFL season in 2025. Across 17 games, the 25-year-old amassed 782 yards from scrimmage and six touchdowns on 153 touches. Corum's ability to take on a true RB1 workload in Los Angeles remains impeded by the presence of Rams back Kyren Williams, who has recorded at least 1,300 scrimmage yards and 13 touchdowns in three consecutive seasons and remains under contract with the team through 2028. However, recent reporting out of Los Angeles suggests that Corum and Williams are in line for a nearly 50/50 workload split in 2026. While his upside is limited by Williams, Corum has already proven he can be a productive player for fantasy managers. He's also just an injury to Williams away from vaulting into top-12 running back territory. In dynasty formats, Corum's stock is rising entering 2026.

The 25th overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft, New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart took over as his team's QB1 in Week 4 of his rookie season. The 23-year-old flashed high-end upside throughout his first NFL campaign, completing 63.7% of his pass attempts for 2,272 yards, 15 touchdowns, and five interceptions. Perhaps most importantly for his fantasy outlook, Dart showed off what he could do with his legs by rushing for 487 yards and nine touchdowns on 86 attempts. Dart will be working with a new coaching staff in 2026, which adds a layer of uncertainty to his profile. However, he also should get a chance to work with star Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee), who went down with a season-ending knee injury during Dart's NFL debut in 2025. Given the dual-threat ability Dart displayed as a rookie, he should be viewed as a potential future high-end QB1 in dynasty formats heading into 2026.

After spending the last three seasons as a member of the Detroit Lions, veteran running back David Montgomery was acquired by the Houston Texans over the offseason. Montgomery had a successful stint with Detroit, recording over 2,500 rushing yards and 33 touchdowns across 45 games with the team. However, the emergence of Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs led to Montgomery averaging a career-low 10.7 touches per game in 2025. In Houston, Montgomery profiles as the clear lead back and should have a chance to re-establish himself as a top-24 fantasy running back. Montgomery is entering his age-29 season, so he may not be the long-term answer in Houston. Still, his dynasty outlook is significantly improved following his offseason change of scenery.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. has struggled to stay on the field since suffering a dislocated ankle in Week 7 of the 2024 season. Continued lower leg injuries caused him to miss eight games in 2025, and he finished the year with just 33 receptions for 360 yards and two touchdowns on 51 targets. On the bright side, Godwin Jr. should finally be fully healthy for the start of the 2026 season. He also could be the number one target in Tampa Bay following the departure of longtime Bucs wideout Mike Evans in free agency. However, Tampa Bay has several promising young wide receivers in Emeka Egbuka, Jalen McMillan, Tez Johnson, and 2026 third-rounder Ted Hurst. Given Godwin Jr.'s injury history, his dynasty value is uncertain as he heads into his age-30 season.

Quarterback Malik Willis is guaranteed a starting role in 2026 after signing a three-year, $67.5 million deal with the Miami Dolphins in free agency this offseason. But that doesn't mean that he should be a QB target in dynasty/keeper leagues. The 26-year-old former third-rounder by the Tennessee Titans in 2022 out of Liberty was efficient and avoided turnovers the last two years as Jordan Love's backup with the Packers, completing 78.7% of his pass attempts for 976 yards, six touchdowns, and no interceptions in 11 games (three starts), also adding 261 rushing yards and three scores on 42 carries. Willis definitely has attractive physical traits -- a strong arm and plenty of wheels -- but he's started only six games in his NFL career and won't have many proven weapons on offense in Miami (outside of RB De'Von Achane) behind an offensive line with plenty of question marks. He's not exactly set up for success with a starting three-wideout set of Jalen Tolbert, Malik Washington, and Tutu Atwell. Despite a guaranteed starting role, Willis is only ranked as RotoBaller's QB24 in dynasty leagues, and he'll merely be a low-end QB2 with rushing upside for those in two-QB superflex formats in 2026.

Los Angeles Rams second-year tight end Terrance Ferguson might be one of the most talented pass-catchers at the position for the Rams, but it's still difficult to envision a substantial role for him given the team's stacked TE room. Going into 2026, the Rams still have Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee, and they also selected Max Klare in the second round of this year's draft. In his first NFL campaign, the 23-year-old Ferguson, a second-rounder himself last year out of Oregon, caught 11 of his 25 targets for 231 yards and three touchdowns in 14 regular-season games (three starts). Only 25 of quarterback Matthew Stafford's 150 targets to TEs in 2025 went to Ferguson, as he spent most of the year as the TE3 behind both Parkinson and Higbee. Davis Allen (33) even had more targets and remains on the roster. In redraft leagues, Ferguson is going to need an injury or two ahead of him to carve out a prominent pass-catching role. Plus, receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams should continue to draw the vast majority of aerial targets for a win-now team. Ferguson will be off the fantasy radar in single-year leagues in 2026, and fantasy managers holding him in dynasty must play the long game. He's currently ranked as the TE29 by RotoBaller in dynasty.

Washington Commanders second-year running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt (also known as Bill) came into his rookie campaign in D.C. as a sexy sleeper at the position in 2025, and his path to regular playing time in his first year in the NFL was wide open when veteran Austin Ekeler tore his Achilles early on. The 25-year-old ended up leading the team with 175 carries for 805 rushing yards (4.6 yards per carry) and eight touchdowns in 17 games (seven starts). He didn't contribute much in the passing game, though, with only nine receptions on 13 targets for 68 yards, and he fumbled four times (two lost). JCM was the RB29 in half-PPR scoring, which has to be considered a success after Washington took him in the seventh round in 2025. The 5-foot-11, 208-pounder from New Mexico is a big-bodied, big-play back whose dynasty stock is on the rise going into his sophomore season. However, to take the next step, he'll need to improve as a pass-catcher. If he cannot make strides out wide, the Commanders have both Rachaad White and Jeremy McNichols to contribute in the passing game. With a clear path to RB1 duties, Croskey-Merritt is a dynasty riser as RotoBaller's RB42, and he's considered an RB3/flex in redraft leagues with at least the team's early down role in his grasp.

Some NFL teams could see the Pittsburgh Steelers at least considering moving on from star linebacker T.J. Watt, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. If Pittsburgh ends up signing fellow linebacker Nick Herbig to a long-term extension, the Steelers would have three large contracts (Watt and Alex Highsmith as well) allocated to one position. The 31-year-old Watt is a legacy player, but he will turn 32 in October and has guaranteed salaries of $32 million in both this year and next year. For as good as Watt has been -- he's an eight-time Pro Bowler and four-time first-team All-Pro -- the former first-rounder isn't getting any younger, and he missed three of the team's final four games in 2025 due to a partially collapsed lung. He has led the NFL in sacks three different times, but after recording 19 sacks in 2023, he has had a combined 18.5 sacks the last two years. It's still hard to imagine the Steelers moving on from the face of their franchise, but if he has another lackluster season in 2026, his time might be up in the Steel City.

Although Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange played in a career-low 12 regular-season games in 2025 due to a hip injury, he still managed to set career highs across the board in receptions (46), targets (60), receiving yards (540), and touchdowns (three). The 25-year-old became the team's clear TE1 after Evan Engram left in free agency last offseason. Jacksonville added rookies Nate Boerkircher and Tanner Koziol in this year's draft, but Strange is locked in as the Jags' top pass-catching TE in 2026 in an offense that took over in the second half of last season. That's the good news. The bad news is that Strange's weekly ceiling could remain relatively low while battling for targets with a deep receiving corps that includes Jakobi Meyers, Brian Thomas Jr., Parker Washington, and Travis Hunter (knee). Quarterback Trevor Lawrence showed plenty of chemistry with Strange, but his volume will probably leave him in TE2 territory in redraft fantasy leagues going into the upcoming campaign. In dynasty leagues, Strange's stock is on the rise in an improved offense under head coach Liam Coen, and RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 16 TE.

Washington Commanders running back Kaytron Allen is regarded as one of the biggest steals of the 2026 NFL Draft, and he could have an immediate impact in fantasy football. Allen fell to the sixth round despite setting the all-time rushing yards record at Penn State, where Saquon Barkley played. He had at least 980 scrimmage yards in each of his four seasons at school, and he set career-bests in 2025 with 1,371 scrimmage yards and 15 touchdowns. The 23-year-old was probably going to be a steal wherever he ended up in the draft, but the landing spot in Washington is even more ideal than others. The Commanders lost Chris Rodriguez Jr. in free agency, so Allen should come in and immediately compete with Jacory Croskey-Merritt for a significant workload every week. Croskey-Merritt was a 2025 seventh-round pick who finished his rookie season with 805 rushing yards and eight touchdowns, and we wouldn't be surprised to see Allen follow a similar path from Day 3 pick to rookie standout. Allen currently projects as an early third-round pick in 2026 rookie drafts, but managers shouldn't rule out taking him in the second, especially since he could be a top-36 fantasy running back as a rookie.
