Has Cooper Kupp Become a Fantasy Non-Factor for 2026?

Tuesday, June 23, 5:25 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp played in 16 games in 2025, but his 593 receiving yards were the lowest since his 2018 sophomore season, in which he missed eight games after tearing his ACL halfway through. His first season in Seattle also marked his first 16-game campaign since winning the receiving Triple Crown in 2021, but even without succumbing to the injuries that have slowed him of late, the ninth-year veteran has seen a notable decline in his ability to separate or add meaningful production after the catch. Heading into his 10th season at 33 years old, Kupp remains an important complementary piece for Seattle behind Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but that real-life importance is unlikely to translate to fantasy outside of the occasional best-ball spike week, and the two-time Super Bowl champion is RotoBaller's WR72 for 2026.

Chimere Dike's Dynasty Outlook Clouded by Crowded Wide Receiver Room in Tennessee

Wednesday, June 10, 8:35 AM

After being selected in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike flashed some encouraging signs as a rookie. Across 17 games (10 starts), the 24-year-old hauled in 48 catches for 423 yards and four touchdowns on 74 targets while also earning a first-team All-Pro selection for his work as a kick returner. However, Dike's playing-time outlook in Tennessee heading into 2026 is trending downward after the team's aggressive offseason. The Titans used the fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on wide receiver Carnell Tate, signed wideout Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency, and will get veteran wide receiver Calvin Ridley back after he played just seven games in 2025 due to injury. Dike's value on special teams should assure him of a roster spot with the Titans, but he may be entering training camp in a battle for the team's WR4 spot with fellow 2025 fourth-rounder Elic Ayomanor. In dynasty leagues where his rookie-season production may be inflating his value, managers may want to explore selling high on Dike.
