A.J. Brown News
Monday, March 16, 4:36 AM
The Philadelphia Eagles will revisit trade scenarios involving wide receiver A.J. Brown in June, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Brown remains an Eagle at this point, but Rapoport explains that "there has been momentum at various times" in trade talks. Rapoport's reporting provided some new insight into an ongoing saga that seemingly has no end in sight. Specifically, he reported that there were originally believed to be four serious landing spots for Brown, with the Rams and Patriots leading the pack. The Rams have lost interest, but the Patriots reportedly continue to check in and remain intrigued by the possibility of acquiring the superstar receiver. As has already been reported, Rapoport also explained that the Eagles would prefer to wait until June 1 to trade Brown. If they were to trade him now, an amount of $40 million would be accelerated to count against the cap. If they wait until June 1, that number halves to $20 million. As a result, fantasy managers will have to be patient because these trade rumors will continue to swirl for another two-plus months.

Ladd McConkey News
Sunday, March 22, 8:40 AM
The Athletic's Daniel Popper thinks that Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey could have a bounce-back season in 2026 in offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's offense. Popper also believes that for McConkey to bounce back, the Chargers need to avoid re-signing veteran Keenan Allen, who led the team in targets and catches in 2025. McConkey and Allen both thrive in similar areas of the field, so in the absence of Allen in McDaniel's offense, McConkey could become a fantasy football stud again. Popper sees McDaniel maximizing McConkey's "shiftiness and yards-after-the-catch ability" with pre-snap motion and linebacker manipulation. The 24-year-old former second-rounder in 2024 out of Georgia caught 82 of 112 targets for 1,149 yards and seven touchdowns in 16 games in his rookie season, but he fell to a 66-789-6 line in 16 games in 2025. With more targets and a focus on the offense under McDaniel, McConkey definitely can become a strong WR2 for fantasy managers going into his third year in the NFL.
