Courtland Sutton's Dynasty Value Unaffected by NFL Draft

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.

Josh Downs News

Josh Downs a Top Buy-Low Candidate Ahead of NFL Draft

Tuesday, April 21, 12:20 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs had a bit of a down year in 2025, recording 58 receptions for 566 yards and four touchdowns on 88 targets across 16 games. The Colts' 2025 draft-day acquisition of tight end Tyler Warren and the emergence of wide receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) both limited Downs' role in his team's offense. After averaging 7.6 targets per game in 2024, Downs averaged just 5.5 targets per game in 2025. While Warren and Pierce both remain in Indianapolis, the Colts traded away veteran wideout Michael Pittman Jr., who earned 111 targets last season. In Pittman Jr.'s absence, Downs should be in a position to play a more prominent role in the Indianapolis passing game. If the Colts do not add another big-name pass-catcher in the upcoming NFL Draft, Downs' dynasty value will almost certainly be on the rise. As such, now could be the best time for dynasty managers to buy low on Downs ahead of a possible bounce-back season.
