Joe Burrow, Joe Burrow's Dynasty Value Remains Impacted by Injury Concerns
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow battled through yet another injury-marred season in 2025, missing nine games due to a toe injury. Dating back to the start of the 2023 season, Burrow has been sidelined by injury for 16 contests. When healthy in 2025, the 29-year-old remained highly productive, completing 66.8% of his pass attempts for 1,809 yards, 17 touchdowns, and five interceptions. Throughout Burrow's career, the offensive line play in front of him in Cincinnati has consistently been problematic. The Bengals added a pair of offensive linemen in the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting Auburn center Connor Lew in the fourth round and Duke guard Brian Parker II in the sixth round. However, neither player projects as an immediate difference-maker for a line that remains questionable heading into 2026. While Burrow is more than capable of turning in elite fantasy seasons, his dynasty value remains shrouded by his injury track record.

Andrei Iosivas, Andrei Iosivas Facing New Competition for Bengals' WR3 Role After NFL Draft
Across 17 games in 2025, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas recorded 33 receptions for 435 yards and two touchdowns on 58 targets. Over the past two seasons, the 26-year-old has established himself as the clear WR3 in Cincinnati behind star wideouts Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. When both Chase and Higgins are healthy, Iosivas does not have a clear path to consistent fantasy production. However, Higgins has missed 12 games over the past three seasons, which has periodically opened up opportunities for Iosivas. In the 2026 NFL Draft, Cincinnati used a fourth-round pick on talented Georgia wide receiver Colbie Young. While Young is far from a lock to beat out Iosivas for the Bengals WR3 role, Iosivas could now face yet another impediment to fantasy-relevant target opportunity in Cincinnati. As he heads into his fourth NFL season, Iosivas' dynasty value would likely be improved by a change in scenery.

Jack Endries, Bengals Select Jack Endries at No. 221 Overall
The Cincinnati Bengals have selected Texas tight end prospect Jack Endries with the 221st overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. He was a three-year contributor in college, spending two seasons at California and one at Texas. He had a career-low 33 catches and 346 yards in 2025, but he also scored a career-high three touchdowns. Although his production slid a little, it was encouraging to see Endries remain involved while making the jump to the SEC. At 6-foot-5, he's a big-bodied tight end who is capable of making contested catches. He projects as a rotational pass-catching option for the Bengals behind Drew Sample and Mike Gesicki.

Mike Gesicki, Is Mike Gesicki a Buy-Low Candidate After Down 2025?
In his second season with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2025, veteran tight end Mike Gesicki recorded just 28 receptions for 307 yards and two touchdowns on 42 targets across 13 games. The 30-year-old's numbers were down from his first season in Cincinnati in 2024, when he hauled in 65 catches for 665 yards and two scores on 83 targets. Gesicki missed time with a pectoral injury and was also hurt by the absence of star Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, who was limited to just eight games played by a toe injury. With improved health, Gesicki could be in line for a bounce-back season in 2026. Additionally, the free agent departure of former Bengals tight end Noah Fant could make Gesicki Cincinnati's undisputed top pass-catching tight end. In deeper dynasty formats, fantasy managers may want to consider buying low on Gesicki.

Chase Brown, Chase Brown an Important Name to Monitor on Night One of the NFL Draft
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.
