Courtland Sutton News
Saturday, June 6, 5:26 AM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has finished as the WR13 or better in back-to-back seasons, proving himself a capable fantasy difference-maker and a favorite target of quarterback Bo Nix, particularly in the red zone. With the Broncos spending up to acquire Jaylen Waddle via trade, and Sutton now on the wrong side of 30, the ninth-year veteran has fallen woefully out of favor with the dynasty community, now sitting at WR48 in RotoBaller's latest rankings. The Broncos offense has found success by spreading the ball around, with Troy Franklin and Evan Engram combining for more than 170 targets in 2025, meaning it's entirely possible for Waddle to step in and lead the receiver room, while others further down the depth chart feel his impact more strongly. Sutton's ceiling has certainly been lowered, but in topping either 1,000 yards or double-digit touchdowns in each of the past three seasons, he's proven he can score points in a variety of ways, and at his lowest cost in years, he can still serve as a quality depth piece on a contending dynasty roster.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Tuesday, May 5, 7:31 AM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba solidified himself among the top tier of fantasy football superstars during the 2025 campaign. In his third NFL regular season, Smith-Njigba exploded for 119 catches, 1,793 yards, and 10 touchdowns (all career-high marks). He was the WR2 in PPR leagues, ranking among the top 10 receivers for the second year in a row. As the 2026 season approaches, Smith-Njigba finds himself in Tier 1 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football wide receiver rankings, but he hasn't yet claimed the overall WR1 spot. The latest rankings have Ja'Marr Chase first, Smith-Njigba second, and Puka Nacua third. It's a fair evaluation, especially since Chase's quarterback situation is far more appealing long-term than Smith-Njigba's. Still, it would surprise nobody if Smith-Njigba finished the 2026 season (or any season) as the overall WR1, especially given Joe Burrow's injury history in Cincinnati. All in all, Smith-Njigba is an undisputed top-three dynasty receiver, and any fantasy manager looking to acquire him will have to be comfortable parting with a hefty return package.
