Can Adonai Mitchell Become the Jets' WR2?

Saturday, April 11, 6:05 AM

New York wide receiver Adonai Mitchell was acquired in the mid-season deal that saw the Jets ship cornerback Sauce Gardner to the Colts, and over eight inconsistent games with his new team, he showed a handful of flashes, scoring twice and topping 100 yards for the first time in his career in a Week 13 win over the Falcons. For the duration of Garrett Wilson's career, the Jets have been trying to pair him with another receiver capable of drawing coverage, something they had briefly with Davante Adams, but Mitchell now represents the most capable option currently on the roster. The Jets have two of the first 16 picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, including number two overall, and they have been regularly tied to some of the top names in a deep receiver class. However, with three picks in the first round of the 2027 draft, they could opt to continue shoring up the trenches and wait to make their splashier moves in a draft expected to be richer in talent. Should New York choose to ignore the receiving room until later in the draft, Mitchell would have every opportunity to claim the role opposite Wilson in two-receiver sets, clearing a path to a modest year-three breakout.

Ricky Pearsall Still Facing Competition in San Francisco

Tuesday, March 31, 5:54 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall entered this offseason as a candidate for more targets with Jauan Jennings and Brandon Aiyuk both expected to depart. However, the 49ers' rather unexpected decision to sign Mike Evans has left Pearsall right back where he started this offseason: in the No. 2 receiver role. Operating in that same role last season, Pearsall caught 36 passes for 528 yards and zero touchdowns across nine games. He never played in more than four consecutive games due to injury, and he was held to fewer than five catches in two-thirds of his contests. All in all, Pearsall likely projects best as a No. 2 receiver, so we're not surprised to see that the 49ers signed a new No. 1. Still, it certainly limits Pearsall's floor and ceiling. Plus, it's not just Evans who will steal volume from Pearsall. Tight end George Kittle (Achilles) will fetch a boatload of targets when healthy, and running back Christian McCaffrey remains the centerpiece of this offense. There's not a lot of momentum behind Pearsall's name in dynasty fantasy football, so it's tough to sell high on him at this point. Managers are better off holding him and trading him at his peak value if Evans misses time due to injury.
