New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte was one of Drake Maye's favorite targets in a brilliant 2025 campaign that nearly landed the 23-year-old quarterback the MVP. However, there may be no player more impacted by the trade of A.J. Brown, a deal many dynasty managers are already viewing as an inevitability. Should Boutte stick in New England, he could struggle to find reliable snaps in an offense featuring two new outside receivers in Brown and big-ticket free agent acquisition Romeo Doubs. Meanwhile, Boutte's name has also come up as a player who could be heading to Philadelphia as part of the Brown deal, which would put him in another crowded room in a low-volume passing offense. Boutte proved himself one of the most efficient downfield receivers in the league in 2025, but regardless of where he plays in 2026, his dynasty value (currently RotoBaller's WR74) is almost certain to take a further hit.

After winning the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award in 2025, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan has risen to WR9 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. The 23-year-old pass catcher out of Arizona hauled in 70 receptions for 1,014 yards and seven touchdowns in his first season, and while playing with one of the weaker supporting casts in the league, he reached or exceeded a 20% target share in 14 of 17 games. Third-year receiver Jalen Coker comes into the season healthy after missing the first six weeks of 2025, but having shown a late-season connection with Bryce Young. Otherwise, the Panthers have made very few changes at wide receiver or tight end, spending a third-round pick on Chris Brazzell II after adding John Metchie III in free agency. McMillan should again be locked in for a hefty workload, and if Young can take another step forward as a passer, as he has done incrementally since his 2024 benching, the second-year receiver could secure his position as a true WR1 to build around in dynasty leagues.

Despite potentially losing his most targeted receiver from 2025, Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was already considered an offseason winner with the team swapping out conservative offensive coordinator Greg Roman with one of the brightest offensive minds in the game, former Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel. With the Chargers agreeing to a one-year deal with veteran tight end David Njoku on Monday, Los Angeles adds to what was already a deep group of pass catchers. With Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Tre' Harris at receiver, popular breakout candidate Omarion Hampton and speedster Keaton Mitchell at running back, and now Njoku paired with Oronde Gadsden in McDaniel's tight end-friendly scheme, Los Angeles could boast one of the most high-powered offenses in the league, and as the man in the middle of it, Herbert is likely to see his dynasty value take off. While playing behind a battered offensive line in 2025, he still earned a vote for MVP. With the team investing heavily up front in the 2026 NFL Draft while expecting returns to health from both Pro-Bowl tackles, the 28-year-old Herbert is a screaming buy at RotoBaller's dynasty QB9, a ranking that is sure to rise before the start of the season.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden had risen all the way to TE10 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings after flashing at a historical level in his rookie season and finishing his first campaign with 664 yards on 49 receptions. The thought of him working in new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's tight end-friendly scheme was enough to push the soon-to-be 23-year-old into TE1 territory, but with the Chargers agreeing to a one-year deal with veteran David Njoku on Monday, Gadsden's breakout chances have been dealt a serious blow. While Njoku was essentially passed over in his final season with the Browns by rookie Harold Fannin Jr., he still offers unique athleticism and an immense target radius, and his blocking ability could make him more of a staple than Gadsden in three-receiver sets. With Njoku adding to what was already a crowded group of pass catchers, including Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Tre' Harris, a reliable target share could be difficult for Gadsden to come by in year two. Gadsden's rookie peaks were as high as almost any player in league history, and Njoku's deal is only for one year, so while the 2025 fifth-round pick out of Syracuse will be clearly impacted in 2026, he should still provide significant value in best ball leagues and as a young dynasty stash.

Veteran tight end David Njoku has agreed to a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Chargers worth up to $8 million. The 2023 Pro Bowler played his first nine seasons with the Cleveland Browns but was allowed to reach free agency after ceding work to rookie Harold Fannin Jr. in 2025, resulting in his lowest reception and yardage totals since 2020. In Los Angeles, Njoku adds another option to Justin Herbert's crowded group of pass catchers, already including Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Tre' Harris. Offering a rare blend of size and athleticism, Njoku should still see plenty of fantasy spike weeks, making him an attractive late-round best ball target. Meanwhile, after rising all the way to TE10 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings, second-year player Oronde Gadsden could now be forced to wait at least one more season before taking over the coveted pass-catching tight end role in offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's offense.

Seattle Seahawks LB Derick Hall had 8.0 sacks, six tackles for loss and two forced fumbles in 2025 across 14 regular-season games, and he had two sacks in the Super Bowl victory, including a strip-sack fumble. He could be an extension candidate, especially with LB Uchenna Nwosu missing significant time due to injuries in recent seasons, LB DeMarcus Lawrence reportedly considering retirement earlier this season, and LB Dante Fowler Jr. turning 32 in August.

Los Angeles Chargers RB Keaton Mitchell was not tendered by the Baltimore Ravens because of his salary figure, as well as his lack of flexibility. 'He was gonna make over $3 million this year based on the system, which was a restricted free agency system, the tender,' general manager Eric DeCosta said. 'Again, not a real special teams guy. A talented space runner. He's not necessarily the most dynamic pass-catching back, so then it becomes, well, would you rather have (Derrick Henry) on the field or Keaton?'

A lot was expected of running back Ashton Jeanty in his first year in the NFL in 2025 after the Las Vegas Raiders took the Boise State product with the sixth overall pick in last year's draft. Jeanty didn't quite live up to those expectations in Year 1, but fantasy managers should still view him as a top-five dynasty RB with an upgraded offensive line and under new head coach Klint Kubiak in 2026 and beyond. The 22-year-old rushed for 975 yards and five touchdowns on 266 carries over 17 starts, adding 55 receptions on 73 targets for 346 yards and an additional five touchdowns as a pass-catcher in 2025. Even though he technically didn't live up to his rookie projections as the Raiders' lead back, he still finished as a top-15 fantasy back in half-PPR scoring. Kubiak is expected to lean heavily on Jeanty and the ground game in his first year in Sin City, giving the second-year back plenty of breakout potential as an elite RB1. RotoBaller has Jeanty ranked as the No. 3 dynasty RB at this point in the offseason, behind only the Falcons' Bijan Robinson and the Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Free-agent QB Nathan Peterman was overqualified in a tryout during the rookie minicamp of the Denver Broncos. The organization will not sign Peterman, but he looked good, and it could be a springboard to another job elsewhere.

Seattle Seahawks LB Derick Hall had 8.0 sacks, six tackles for loss and two forced fumbles in 2025 across 14 regular-season games, and he had two sacks in the Super Bowl victory, including a strip-sack fumble.

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.

Baltimore Ravens LBs Mike Green and Zion Young are players the organization is excited about, and general manager Eric DeCosta said it is a challenge of balancing playing time at outside linebacker while evaluating several younger players. 'We feel really good about Zion, and we feel really good about (Green), not to mention (Trey Hendrickson). It's gonna be hard to get him off the field. So, it becomes a matter of reps,' DeCosta said.

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.

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.

From RotoBaller

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.

From RotoBaller

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.
