Amon-Ra St. Brown News
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.

Zay Flowers News
Wednesday, June 24, 8:41 AM
Across 17 games in 2025, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers recorded 86 receptions for 1,211 yards and five touchdowns on 118 targets. The 25-year-old was by far and away the number one wide receiver option in his team's passing game, as veteran wideout DeAndre Hopkins finished second among Ravens wideouts in targets with 39. In 2026, Flowers may no longer have such a dominant hold on the team's target share. Baltimore wide receiver Rashod Bateman should be healthier after missing four games in 2025, and the team also used mid-round picks in the 2026 draft on wide receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt. While Flowers is an explosive threat with the ball in his hands, he's scored only 14 touchdowns across 50 career NFL games. If his target volume dips even marginally, it could be a major issue for his fantasy production. As the 16th wide receiver off the board by average draft position, Flowers may currently be overvalued in redraft formats.
