Cooper Kupp News
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.

Jack Bech News
Tuesday, June 30, 7:40 AM
A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jack Bech struggled to produce as a rookie. Across 16 games (five starts), the 23-year-old recorded 20 catches for 224 yards and two touchdowns on 29 targets. In fairness to Bech, the offensive environment around him in Las Vegas was arguably the NFL's worst in 2025. Entering 2026, the Raiders have a new play-caller in Klint Kubiak and two new quarterbacks in Kirk Cousins and Fernando Mendoza. The team also made only modest additions to its wide receiver room in free agency, signing veterans Jalen Nailor and Dareke Young. As underwhelming as Bech's production as a rookie was, he should have another chance to make an impression in 2026 and a more competent supporting cast to help him reach his ceiling. Per Michael Canelo of Sports Illustrated, Bech has "already been making noise" at Raiders spring workouts. In dynasty formats, rebuilding dynasty managers may want to explore buy-low trades for Bech.
