CeeDee Lamb Remains a Worthy Trade Target for Dynasty Contenders

Thursday, June 18, 8:23 AM

Relative to his own lofty standards, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb had a down year in 2025. The 27-year-old missed three games with an ankle injury and finished the year with 75 receptions for 1,077 yards and three touchdowns on 117 targets. After averaging over 10 targets per game in 2024, Lamb saw his targets decrease to 8.4 per game in 2025. Part of the reason for the decline was the emergence of fellow Cowboys wideout George Pickens. However, Lamb's efficiency went up in terms of both yards per reception and yards per target while sharing the field with a vertical threat like Pickens in 2025. With better health, Lamb could re-emerge as a dominant force in the short and intermediate areas of the field. Pickens is also playing the 2026 season on the franchise tag and remains without a long-term extension from Dallas. Even if Pickens' presence is a real impediment to Lamb's production, his long-term dynasty outlook is unchanged until Pickens extends with the Cowboys.

Chris Olave Cleared After Missing End of 2025 With Blood Clots

Tuesday, June 23, 5:26 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (illness) was recently cleared after missing the end of the 2025 season due to blood clots, according to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. Olave is expected to stop taking blood-thinners at the end of June and be ready to rock for the start of training camp at the end of July. Despite missing a game last year, the 25-year-old former 11th overall pick in 2022 out of Ohio State had a career-high 1,163 receiving yards, a career-high 100 catches (156 targets), and a career-best nine touchdowns in 16 games played in his fourth year in the NFL. Head coach Kellen Moore said earlier this offseason that Olave didn't have any issues in his recovery from blood clots, so he should be a full-go for training camp and the start of the 2026 regular season this fall. The Saints added rookie Jordyn Tyson in the first round back in April, but Olave should remain the team's unquestioned WR1 in an offense on the upswing under Moore and second-year quarterback Tyler Shough, who exceeded expectations in his rookie campaign. In what should be another pass-happy offense, Olave has a stable floor as a low-end WR1 target for fantasy managers in 2026.
