Amon-Ra St. Brown Looks Stronger and More Explosive

Wednesday, June 24, 10:03 AM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown continues to be quarterback Jared Goff's security blanket and "looks a little stronger and more explosive" as he heads into his sixth year in the league in 2026, according to Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official website. St. Brown proved difficult to cover for the team's defenders during a recent two-day minicamp. The 26-year-old former fourth-rounder in 2021 out of USC has led the league in catches (547) in the last five seasons and should continue to be an elite player for fantasy managers in 2026. St. Brown is the Lions' unquestioned WR1 and has made the Pro Bowl in four straight seasons. In 17 starts in 2025, he caught 117 passes (career-high 172 targets) for 1,401 yards and 11 touchdowns. St. Brown has had 100-plus receptions and over 1,000 receiving yards in each of the last four seasons, and he's scored double-digit touchdowns in each of the last three years in Detroit's improved offense. He will come off the board in the early rounds of fantasy drafts again this fall, and he's ranked as RotoBaller's No. 5 fantasy WR.

Nico Collins News

Is Nico Collins the Most Underrated Dynasty WR1?

Monday, June 15, 5:25 AM

Since a third-year breakout in 2023, Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has topped 1,000 receiving yards and six touchdowns in each of the past three seasons while twice finishing as a top-five graded receiver by PFF, and only dropping as low as number eight in 2025. As the unquestioned focal point of opposing defenses, Collins has finished as the WR9 in each of his last two full seasons, and with reinforcements coming to the Texans' offense in 2026, his game could take yet another step up. After finishing with one of the least efficient running games in the league, Houston traded for David Montgomery, and with further development expected from second-year wideouts Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, and the potential return of Tank Dell from a devastating 2024 knee injury, Collins could face significantly lower rates of double teams moving forward. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR10, the 27-year-old still has several years of prime play left after a slow start to his NFL career.
