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.

Troy Franklin News

Dynasty Expectations Low for Troy Franklin

Thursday, April 30, 5:37 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin was one of the more hyped prospects coming out of Oregon and early in the pre-draft process heading into the 2024 NFL Draft. Most of that hype went by the wayside when he fell to the fourth round and Denver made him the 103rd overall pick, but he still had his believers in dynasty circles. After two inconsistent seasons, and with the Broncos continuing to add target competition, first by selecting Pat Bryant in the third round of the 2025 Draft and then by shipping out first and third-round picks for Jaylen Waddle, Franklin has fallen to WR73 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. Franklin has shown sporadic flashes on his way to 992 career yards and eight touchdowns, but the wide receiver room in Denver has grown crowded, and with three capable running backs in J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey, and now fourth-round pick Jonah Coleman, consistent upside will be hard to come by in more of a complementary role.
