Cooper Kupp News
Sunday, April 19, 6:01 AM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp finished the 2025 season as the WR55, and his receiving yardage has now dropped year after year since his 2021 Triple Crown-winning season. His two total touchdowns and 37.1 yards per game both marked career lows. In his first season in Seattle, he saw only a 15.5% target share, and as he approaches his age-33 season, any hopes of a fantasy resurgence have been comfortably put to rest. Returning quarterback Sam Darnold and new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury will have the reigning Offensive Player of the Year to lean on in Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and after sending a fourth and fifth-round pick to acquire Rashid Shaheed in a mid-season trade and then signing him to a three-year, $51 million deal, the expectation is that he will earn more than the 2.6 targets per game he saw across his nine regular season outings with the Seahawks. Kupp did lead the team in targets and receptions in their Super Bowl win over the Patriots, proving that he can still provide the occasional spike week in the rare occurrence that an opponent has both the plan and the personnel to limit Smith-Njigba, but relying on him as a weekly starter is no longer a viable option. Once one of fantasy's true elites, Kupp is now WR108 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings.

Jakobi Meyers News
Wednesday, May 6, 6:00 AM
Following a 2025 mid-season trade that brought him to Jacksonville, veteran wide receiver Jakobi Meyers was a key piece in unlocking quarterback Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars' offense as a whole. After playing on only 27 total snaps in his first game with the team, Meyers averaged seven targets and 4.9 receptions from Week 11 onward, finishing as the fantasy WR17 across that stretch. With a full offseason in Liam Coen's offense, Meyers is expected to take another step forward, but the crowded receiver room in Jacksonville could ultimately limit his ceiling. Even with Travis Hunter reported to see limited offensive reps in year two, Meyers still shares a room with 2024 first-round pick Brian Thomas Jr. and Parker Washington, who finished as the WR11 over the final 10 weeks of the year. Heading into his eighth season, the 29-year-old Meyers is RotoBaller's dynasty WR40, which could be viewed as a slight mispricing with the 24-year-old Washington slotting in several spots below him at WR49 and Thomas only up at WR27, just two seasons removed from his WR4 finish as a rookie. For contending dynasty managers, Meyers is a solid hold who can provide reliable weekly fantasy floors, but for those seeking more upside, Thomas and Washington may represent the more attractive swings at their currently depressed values.
