Cooper Kupp News
Friday, May 29, 10:59 AM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp posted one of the least productive seasons of his career in 2025, recording 47 catches for 593 yards and two touchdowns on 70 targets across 16 games. After many years as a WR1 with the Los Angeles Rams, Kupp fell into a secondary role in Seattle behind superstar Seahawks wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Entering 2026, Kupp still projects to be behind Smith-Njigba on the target pecking order and may also slip below younger Seattle wideouts Rashid Shaheed and Tory Horton. While the veteran Kupp still provides value as a trusty possession receiver, he no longer offers the same production upside he did at his peak as he enters his age-33 season. In dynasty formats, managers may want to consider dropping Kupp in favor of a younger pass-catcher.

Khalil Shakir News
Sunday, June 14, 5:10 PM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has arguably been his team's most consistent pass-catcher over the past two years, averaging 74 catches, 770 receiving yards, and four touchdowns on 97 targets per season. Particularly in PPR-scoring formats, Shakir's reliability and consistency allow him to provide fantasy managers with a safe production floor. However, his upside is also limited by his lack of downfield ability, as he averaged just 10 yards per reception and 7.6 yards per target in 2025. Additionally, Shakir's target volume in Buffalo may be trending in the wrong direction following the team's offseason acquisition of veteran wide receiver DJ Moore. If the Bills get strong production from Moore and a healthier season from tight end Dalton Kincaid, Shakir could be siloed to a complementary role in the team's passing game. Given his limited ceiling and the shifting environment around Shakir in Buffalo, dynasty managers may want to explore selling high on him ahead of 2026.
