CeeDee Lamb Combines a Safe Floor with One of the Highest Ceilings in 2026

Tuesday, July 14, 5:37 AM

Limited to only 14 games after a high ankle sprain cost him time early in the year, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb's 75 catches and 1,077 receiving yards were his lowest totals since his rookie season, while his three touchdown grabs marked a new career low. His fantasy finish as the WR20 put him outside the top eight for the first time since 2021, but, coming into his seventh season healthy and with the Cowboys' offense largely unchanged, the prevailing belief is that his 2025 season will ultimately prove to be more of a blip than a sign of decline. When at full health, Lamb remained the team's primary option in the passing game, even with George Pickens breaking out to the tune of 1,429 receiving yards and nine touchdowns in his first year with the team. In the 11 games where both saw at least a 50% snap share, Lamb earned more targets eight times, only once ending a game with fewer than five receptions. In what again projects to be an offense capable of supporting two difference-making fantasy wide receivers, Lamb is still the Cowboy most likely to finish the year as the WR1. That league-winning ceiling is accented by one of the safest floors in fantasy, and at RotoBaller's WR4, he's a player that managers can again feel comfortable building their teams around in the first round of 2026 drafts.

Garrett Wilson News

Is Garrett Wilson a WR1 in 2026?

Thursday, June 25, 5:37 AM

Before a knee injury ended his 2025 campaign, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson was the WR5 through the first five weeks of the season. Heading into 2026 healthy and in what looks to be an uptrending offense, Wilson has the potential to volume his way to a top 10 finish over a full season. The Jets spent first-round picks on tight end Kenyon Sadiq and wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr., moves that could help elevate the offense as a whole without adding insurmountable competition for Wilson's targets. In his first full season with the team, Adonai Mitchell looks to handle WR2 responsibilities, though his game has been predicted more on big plays than volume, and in Frank Reich's mesh-heavy offense, Wilson should be given ample opportunity to work with the ball in space. New York traded for quarterback Geno Smith, who now faces allegations of battery but has not been charged, so while his legal situation warrants monitoring, he still represents an upgrade at the position. In a best-case scenario, Wilson's ceiling is as high as nearly any receiver currently being drafted outside of the first two rounds, and at RotoBaller's WR14, he's one of the last players that drafters should feel comfortable enough to make their WR1 in a running back-heavy build.
