The Philadelphia Eagles are acquiring wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks from the Green Bay Packers on Friday in exchange for a 2026 fifth-round draft pick and a 2027 sixth-round pick, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Wicks will sign a one-year, $12.5 million extension with the Eagles. The acquisition of Wicks by the Eagles makes it even more likely that the team will trade veteran A.J. Brown after June 1, when it becomes more palatable for them for salary cap purposes. The 24-year-old Wicks, a former fifth-round pick in 2023 out of Virginia, finished the 2025 season on the sidelines due to a concussion. He played in 14 regular-season games and caught a career-low 30 passes for 332 yards and just two touchdowns. Wicks hasn't gone over 39 receptions in any of his first three years in the league, although he could have a path to a much bigger role behind DeVonta Smith in Philly if Brown is indeed traded this offseason. If Brown is traded, Wicks will compete for the WR2 role with Marquise Brown and Elijah Moore, making him slightly more intriguing as a depth WR in dynasty/keeper leagues.

Dynasty | Multiple reports are indicating Travis Hunter is moving to cornerback, full-time. Dynasty Analysis: The latest comes from Ian Rapoport, who is about as plugged in as anyone. It certainly seems the Jaguars are more than content with the likes of Brian Thomas Jr., Jakobi Meyers, and an emerging Parker Washington at receiver and simply see more value with Hunter playing a more premium position on defense. This has always been the risk with Hunter but if this holds true, his dynasty value is going to take a huge hit. Anyone who invested a high pick in him last year has no choice but to hold tight and see what happens but Hunter playing defense full-time is going to be catastrophic.

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens was a fifth-round pick in a 2025 NFL Draft teeming with running back talent, and he quickly became a popular dynasty stash as the primary backup to one of fantasy's elite in Jonathan Taylor. As a rookie, Giddens dealt with minor injuries and was held out of several games as a healthy scratch, with Taylor leaned on as a workhorse, and the team favoring veteran Ameer Abdullah for his contributions in the passing game. Limited to nine games in total, Giddens finished his first season with only 96 yards on a 3.7 per carry average, and failed to record a single reception. Even with a notably weaker incoming class of rookie running backs, Giddens is no lock to even make the roster after a disappointing 2025 and would be unlikely to handle a full workload should Taylor miss time.

The Indianapolis Colts and cornerback Kenny Moore II have mutually agreed to seek a trade as the veteran enters his 10th season and the final year of a $30 million deal signed in 2024, as reported by NFL Insider Adam Schefter. Moore has been an impactful leader on Indianapolis' defense, heralded for his hard-nosed play in the running game. He topped 100 tackles in his lone Pro Bowl season in 2021, making him an IDP league-winner, but nagging injuries have seen his play taper off since. In more of a rotational role in 2025, he was limited to 55 tackles, the lowest since his rookie season. Moore will bring grit and experience to his new team, but according to Schefter, both sides have agreed it is time to move on.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has been a reliably steady fantasy presence at an often overlooked position, rarely busting and providing occasional week-winning performances on his way to four top-12 finishes over the past seven seasons, including a career-best TE7 finish in 2025. He was an early offseason winner when the Patriots allowed Austin Hooper to return to Atlanta in free agency and replaced him with Julian Hill, who profiles more as an inline blocker. However, Henry is 31 years old, and with tight end regarded as one of the deepest positions in this year's draft, the team will almost certainly be looking to add his eventual replacement to the roster. New England recently hosted Georgia's Oscar Delp on an official visit and has reportedly met with several players at the position throughout the pre-draft process. The Patriots are also still rumored to be interested in a post-June 1st trade for A.J. Brown, which would add additional red zone competition, further lessening Henry's dynasty value.

Seattle Seahawks tight end AJ Barner finished 2025 as the TE14 in Half-PPR formats and has yet to turn 24. Still, he is being priced as a low-end TE2 in dynasty startups, often falling to the late double-digit rounds. The 2024 fourth-round pick finished his second season with 58 catches on 71 targets, 586 receiving yards, and seven touchdown grabs, all top-three numbers on a Super Bowl-winning Seahawks team. He was also given valuable snaps under center in short-yardage and goal line situations, allowing him to tally an additional rushing touchdown. Seattle spent a 2025 second-round pick on the playmaking tight end Elijah Arroyo, but Barner was able to hold off any perceived target competition, nearly tripling the rookie in both offensive snaps and targets. While Arroyo is himself a candidate to follow Barner's lead with a second-season leap, Barner should still be viewed as the team's primary pass-catching tight end, representing mispriced value in dynasty leagues, even if he only holds the role rather than expanding upon it.

After a disappointing rookie season in 2023, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman briefly flashed week-winning potential during a mid-season stretch of his sophomore campaign before a concussion ended his season. He started 2025 strong with touchdowns in each of his first two games, but he quickly faded into fantasy obscurity, failing to find the end zone again for the rest of the year and finishing his third season with only 270 yards on 21 catches. Already tied to a sub-optimal quarterback situation and having already failed to stand out amid one of the league's weakest receiver rooms, Tillman's outlook would already look bleak enough without the Browns being linked to the top receivers in the upcoming rookie class. With the target pecking order behind tight end Harold Fannin Jr. so unsorted, dynasty managers who can afford to keep Tillman rostered into the season should do so until his usage is revealed. However, should he continue on his career-long 4.0 fantasy points per game pace, he will no longer need to be treated as a hold.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is 28 years old, and after an RB12 finish in 2025, he has fallen to RB19 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. Jacobs spent the final weeks of the season battling through a knee injury sustained in Week 11, and while he missed only two games in total, his play was clearly impacted, as he scored only three of his 14 total touchdowns from that point on. As Jacobs nears 30, health and durability will rightfully become a growing part of his profile, but prior to the injury, he was RB5 on the season. The Packers lost primary backup Emanuel Wilson to free agency, and outside of spending a top 100 pick at the position, they are unlikely to find anything more than replacement-level value in an underwhelming draft class. With Matt LaFleur showing a willingness to lean heavily on his lead back, Jacobs could represent a smart buy-low for dynasty contenders.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has been extremely underwhelming in fantasy football throughout his five-year career. Despite having high draft capital as a former first-round pick, Bateman has never finished higher than WR40 in fantasy football. He has finished as WR69 or worse in four of his five pro seasons. Most recently, in 2025, Bateman was held to just 19 catches, 224 yards, and two touchdowns. Sure, he missed four games due to injury, but the per-game averages are still putrid. Plus, fantasy managers don't want receivers who struggle to produce and can't stay healthy. The only good news about Bateman's situation is that the Ravens made a coaching change this offseason, replacing John Harbaugh with Jesse Minter. Still, there's not enough optimism behind Minter to justify getting back on board the Bateman hype train. After five years of disappointment, managers can drop Bateman in all dynasty leagues.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette has not lived up to his hype as a first-round pick, and he could continue to trend in the wrong direction for fantasy football in 2026. Legette has ranked outside the top 60 fantasy receivers in each of his two NFL seasons. Last year, he ranked as the WR71 with 35 catches, 363 yards, and three touchdowns. He missed two games, so even if you extrapolate his stats over a full 17-game season, it was still a putrid year for the 25-year-old. Outside of his first-round capital, Legette doesn't have much working in his favor. Most notably, he sits behind both Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker on the depth chart. It'll be tough for him to carve out consistent volume as the No. 3 receiver in a balanced offense like Carolina's. Outside of an injury to McMillan or Coker, we don't envision a path to meaningful fantasy production for Legette next year. He can be dropped in most dynasty formats or stashed on the bench in the deepest of leagues.

Carolina Panthers tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders has struggled to emerge as a relevant fantasy option through his first two seasons in the NFL. He showed some upside near the end of his rookie campaign in 2024, but he has yet to finish higher than TE36 in PPR leagues. It's not for a lack of talent, as Sanders was an early fourth-round pick and has flashed impressive receiving skills. However, Carolina's offense doesn't seem to prioritize getting the ball to its tight ends. In fact, we haven't really seen the Panthers have a legitimate fantasy threat at tight end since Greg Olsen in 2016. It's unlikely that will change next season, but there is hope. Head coach Dave Canales recently turned offensive play-calling duties over to offensive coordinator Brad Idzik, so perhaps that will lead to more tight end targets for Sanders. Still, we wouldn't bet on an immediate breakout for the 23-year-old. Rostering Sanders will require patience, and he's more of a hold than a buy or sell in dynasty leagues at the moment.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed had an underwhelming campaign in 2025. Between his reduced role and 10-week injury absence, he finished the season with just 19 catches for 207 yards and one touchdown across seven games. The injury definitely contributed to his down season, but even when he was healthy, he averaged just 2.7 catches, 29.6 yards, and 0.1 touchdowns per game. Reed had totaled more than 1,600 yards and 12 touchdowns across his first two seasons in 2023 and 2024, so fantasy managers will hope he can get back to that level of performance in 2026. The good news for Reed is that Romeo Doubs Jr. departed in free agency, leaving behind 85 vacated targets. The bad news is that a large portion of that volume could go to Matthew Golden, who is trending up ahead of a potential Year 2 breakout. Reed is not a lock to replicate his top-30 fantasy finishes from his first two pro seasons, but at a minimum, he'll be a decent volume-based flex if he can stay healthy next season. As a result, he's an intriguing buy-low candidate in dynasty leagues.

Jacksonville Jaguars two-way player Travis Hunter (knee) should be a full participant by training camp, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Hunter suffered a torn LCL during practice in October and missed the entire second half of the 2025 campaign. When he returns to the field, he'll be a full-time cornerback and part-time receiver. While Hunter was heavily involved as a receiver before getting injured in his rookie season, this latest update falls in line with the general consensus from before the 2025 NFL Draft that Hunter offered the most value on defense. It seems highly unlikely that Hunter will match last year's average of 6.4 targets per game. Not only is he going to play fewer offensive snaps, but he also faces plenty of competition for targets with Brian Thomas Jr., Jakobi Meyers, and Parker Washington all in the mix. Hunter currently ranks #74 overall in RotoBaller's early fantasy football rankings for the 2026 season.

Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring), who is projected to be a first-round pick in this month's 2026 NFL draft, will hold an individual workout for NFL teams on Friday, April 17, at Arizona State, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Tyson injured his hamstring last year and then re-injured the same hamstring while preparing for the scouting combine at the end of February. He's no stranger to injuries, as he also broke his collarbone in 2024 and tore his ACL, MCL, and PCL in 2022. The fact that Tyson is still in consideration in the first round in this year's draft just shows how talented he is on a football field. In his third and final year with the Sun Devils in 2025, Tyson caught 61 passes for 711 yards and eight touchdowns in nine games, a year after posting a 75-1,101-10 line in 12 games in his junior year at Arizona State. If Tyson shows well at his individual workout at the end of next week, he'll solidify himself as a first-round prospect.

Jacksonville Jaguars general manager James Gladstone said that wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter (knee) "will be a limited participant" throughout offseason workouts with the hope that he'll be ready for training camp this summer, according to Alessandra Pontbriand of WJXT4 Sports. Hunter is reportedly "well ahead of schedule" in his recovery from surgery to fix a torn LCL in his right knee that he suffered in his rookie campaign in 2025. Still, the Jags aren't going to rush the former Heisman Trophy winner this offseason. Barring a setback this summer, the 22-year-old two-way star and former second overall pick should be good to go for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season this fall. Unfortunately for his managers in dynasty leagues, Hunter is expected to be deployed much more as a defensive back in his sophomore season than on offense. His fantasy value was inflated going into his rookie year, and Hunter finished with only 298 receiving yards and one touchdown as a receiver on 28 receptions in seven games before his season-ending knee injury.

University of Washington wide receiver Denzel Boston is having another pre-draft visit on Thursday with the Carolina Panthers, according to Field Yates of ESPN. Boston played for Washington head coach Jedd Fisch in his final two collegiate seasons in the same system that Offensive Rookie of the Year Tetairoa McMillan played in under Fisch for two seasons at Arizona. The Panthers hold the No. 19 overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft, and he could be in play for Carolina in that spot. Pairing Boston with McMillan would give quarterback Bryce Young another big-play threat through the air, but it would be bad news for the value of emerging wideout Jalen Coker. In his fourth and final season for the Huskies in 2025, Boston caught 62 passes for 881 yards and a career-high 11 touchdowns in 12 games played. He had 20 total touchdown catches on 125 catches in his final two collegiate seasons. Boston's speed will make him an explosive downfield threat for whichever team takes him in this year's draft.

Baltimore Ravens veteran tight end Mark Andrews' future in Baltimore has been in question the past several years, but with both Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar departing in free agency this offseason, he's set for plenty of opportunities with a new coaching staff in 2026, according to Kevin Patra of NFL.com. The 30-year-old is coming off a career-low 422 yards on 48 catches with five touchdowns in 2025, but he's confident that he can bounce back. "I'm going to continue to get better and grow my game, and I think there's going to be a lot of opportunities in this offense," Andrews said. The Ravens added tight end Durham Smythe, but he had only four catches last year with the Chicago Bears. Baltimore could add a TE in the upcoming NFL draft, but either way, Andrews figures to be in a prime spot to bounce back as a TE1 in fantasy football, especially if quarterback Lamar Jackson can put his lower-body injuries from 2025 in the rearview mirror.

Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. began and finished the 2025 season as New York's primary ball carrier, but from Weeks 2 through 7, it was a healthy Cam Skattebo that dominated touches, both on the ground and in the passing game. The Giants bring in an entirely new coaching staff for 2026, so there is no clear blueprint for the division of labor between Tracy, Skattebo, and Devin Singletary, who also returns after handling 138 opportunities of his own last season. Furthermore, New York has been tied to Notre Dame prospect Jeremiyah Love with the fifth pick in the NFL Draft, though more pressing needs on defense could force them to pass even if he falls to them. Regardless of how the backfield situation plays out, Tracy profiles as a committee back with occasional flex value who can handle a large volume in an insurance role, as evidenced by his 19+ opportunities per game over the final nine weeks of the 2025 season.

As a rookie in 2025, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike flirted with breaking the NFL's single-season all-purpose yardage record, eventually topping the league with 2,427 yards. He finished in the top three in both kickoff and punt return yardage, while adding an additional 423 yards in the passing game. In the rare fantasy league that rewards points for return yards, Dike is a no-brainer must-roster player and potential league-winner depending on scoring settings. In more traditional leagues, however, his fantasy value may actually be held back by what he offers the Titans on special teams. After proving himself to be such a dynamic weapon in the kicking game, Tennessee's new coaching staff would be wise to keep him in a similar role, with any contributions as a receiver viewed largely as a bonus, almost in the mold of a Kavonte Turpin in Dallas. While both players have shown flashes on offense with their game-breaking speed, there has been no banking on the type of reliable contributions needed to become a weekly starter. The Titans return fellow rookies Elic Ayomanor and Gunnar Helm for 2026 and should see the return of a healthy Calvin Ridley, after the veteran missed missed ten games with a hamstring injury and and a broken fibula that landed him on injured reserve. The team also picks fourth in the upcoming NFL Draft and has regularly been linked to the wide receivers at the top of the board.

Cincinnati running back Chase Brown enters his fourth season with the Bengals, and seemingly his fourth season with lingering questions about his job security. The Bengals pick 10th in the upcoming NFL Draft and recently hosted Notre Dame prospect Jeremiyah Love on an official visit. Most draft analysts believe Love will be gone long before Cincinnati is on the clock, so if that is the case, or if the Bengals opt to address the bottom-dwelling defense that has held them back for years, Brown could emerge as one of fantasy's biggest winners from night one of the draft. A fifth-round selection in 2023, Brown has emerged as one of the most unheralded late-round success stories in recent years, finishing as the RB12 and RB8 over the past two seasons. While games won't be played for another five months, the Bengals appear to be heading into 2026 without any looming contract disputes and with their core of Brown, Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins at full health, which could again make them one of the most potent offenses in the league. Brown enters the final season of his rookie deal, and should Cincinnati elect to wait until the later rounds to add to the running back room, dynasty managers can take that as a vote of confidence for the 26-year-old back who may still be ascending.
