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
Tuesday, February 17, 4:35 AM
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey had a frustrating second season in the NFL. He caught 66 passes for 789 yards and six touchdowns, ranking as the overall WR30. He wasn't a total bust, but he certainly failed to live up to the expectations he had established after finishing as the WR13 as a rookie in 2024. That same year, he had 1,149 yards and seven touchdowns. Justin Herbert continues to play at a very high level, so we can't blame his regression on poor quarterback play. The Chargers' bottom-tier offensive line could have been a contributing factor, but more likely than not, defenses just started to do a better job game-planning for the former second-round pick now that they had a full year's worth of film on him. Los Angeles replaced offensive coordinator Greg Roman with Mike McDaniel this offseason, which should benefit all of the Chargers' skill players in fantasy football. Additionally, there might be a few extra targets to go around, now that Keenan Allen is headed for free agency. All in all, managers absolutely should not panic about McConkey after the 2025 season. In fact, dynasty managers might be able to buy low on McConkey if his current manager is frustrated by how he played last year.
