A.J. Brown News
Monday, March 30, 7:51 AM
Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman said on Sunday at the league meetings that wide receiver A.J. Brown is a "member" of the team amid trade speculation this offseason, according to Tim McManus of ESPN. In January, Roseman said, "It is hard to find great players in the NFL, and A.J. is a great player. I think from my perspective, that's what we're going out and looking for when we go out here in free agency, in the draft, just trying to find great players who love football, and he's that guy." It's no secret that Brown was frustrated with the team's offense in 2025, which has fueled speculation that the Eagles would trade him this offseason. The New England Patriots have been the most commonly discussed destination, but Philly's asking price for Brown is very high, and the Pats also signed Romeo Doubs in free agency. Brown could still be traded, though, as the Eagles are financially incentivized to wait until at least June 1 to trade Brown. The 28-year-old three-time Pro Bowler had his sixth 1,000-yard season in his seventh year in the league, but he also had a career-low 12.9 yards per catch and was as inconsistent as you can get for fantasy managers for a 1,000-yard wideout.

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.
