Courtland Sutton News
Thursday, April 30, 5:13 AM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton saw his dynasty stock take a hit when the team traded for Jaylen Waddle, but following the 2026 NFL Draft, his value has leveled off. Having sent away first and third-round picks in the deal for Waddle, Denver entered the draft with only seven total picks, and they ended up spending a fifth and a seventh on tight ends Justin Joly and Dallen Bentley, neither of whom poses a threat to Sutton's role on the outside or as immediate target competition. Sutton has scored 25 touchdowns over the past three seasons, and he remains the Broncos' primary threat in the red zone. While Waddle will certainly eat into his overall workload, Sutton's big game potential still makes him a capable WR3 or flex play for fantasy, reflected by his dynasty ranking of RotoBaller's WR44 as he approaches 31 years old.

Brian Thomas Jr. News
Saturday, April 18, 10:44 AM
After recording nearly 1,300 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns as a rookie in 2024, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. regressed in his second season. Across 14 games, the 23-year-old hauled in 48 receptions for 707 yards and two touchdowns on 91 targets. After looking like a no-doubt fantasy WR1 as a rookie, Thomas Jr.'s dynasty value is now an open question. However, Thomas Jr. battled wrist, shoulder, and ankle injuries throughout the year, which may have played a role in his subpar performance. The Jaguars also reportedly plan to play cornerback/wide receiver Travis Hunter (knee) more on the defensive side of the ball in 2026, which could open up a few more target opportunities for Thomas Jr. He comes with a significant amount of risk, but dynasty managers may never have a better buy-low window on Thomas Jr.
