Chris Olave News
Friday, February 27, 8:08 AM
After a down year in 2024 in which he missed nine games due to injury, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave bounced back to form in 2025. Across 16 games, the 25-year-old hauled in 100 receptions for 1,163 yards and nine touchdowns on 156 targets. Olave's production reached a new level after Tyler Shough took over as the Saints' starting quarterback in Week 8. Across nine games alongside Shough, Olave hauled in 56 catches for 723 yards and six touchdowns on 85 targets. With a full season's worth of games playing with Shough in 2026, Olave could be in line for the best year of his career. Injuries remain a concern for Olave, as he's missed 13 games across four NFL seasons and ended 2025 sidelined by a blood clot in his lung. However, he's expected to make a full recovery heading into 2026, and he's proven a safe per-game production floor throughout the course of his career. In dynasty formats, Olave's fantasy stock is rising as a result of his encouraging 2025 season.

Zay Flowers News
Sunday, March 15, 10:47 AM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers quietly finished 2025 with a career-high 1,211 receiving yards, largely on the strength of three monster 120+ yard performances littered throughout the season. Now, with the Ravens welcoming a new coaching staff for 2026, Flowers is in a position to become the clear focal point of Baltimore's passing offense. Offensive coordinator Declan Doyle arrived in Baltimore from Ben Johnson's coaching tree, noting the importance of explosive plays, and then in the opening week of free agency, the team said goodbye to two of its more explosive playmakers in Isaiah Likely and Keaton Mitchell. Heading into the NFL draft, Flowers' biggest competition for targets is the soon-to-be-31-year-old Mark Andrews and sixth-year wideout Rashod Bateman, who has yet to top the 46 receptions from his rookie year.
