Darius Slayton News
Monday, July 20, 5:59 PM
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has seen his role in the offense drop in recent years. Over the last two seasons, Slayton has finished with fewer than 600 receiving yards both years. During that span, Slayton has scored a total of three touchdowns, which is fewer than in his 2023 campaign. The expectation was that Slayton would have a larger role once Malik Nabers (knee) went down, but that didn't really happen. Now, Nabers is expected to return at some point this season, and the Giants have added reinforcements. They've signed Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin III, and Odell Beckham Jr. this offseason. The Giants also drafted Malachi Field in the third-round of this year's draft. There's becoming too many bodies in New York and not enough targets for everyone. The 29-year-old may get lost in the shuffle with all the new weapons for Jaxson Dart in 2026.

Jack Bech News
Tuesday, July 21, 5:13 AM
Unable to rise to a position of relevance on a lackluster depth chart, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jack Bech disappointed as a rookie, finishing his first season with only 224 yards on 20 scoreless receptions. A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Bech was held outside the team's top five in all major receiving categories, and although the team made minimal improvements to a room that was led by Tre Tucker's 696 receiving yards, fantasy expectations remain low for the second-year player. Vegas signed former Viking Jalen Nailor to a three-year deal, and he is expected to form a tandem with Tucker in a Klint Kubiak passing offense likely to run through tight end Brock Bowers and running back Ashton Jeanty. When the Raiders take to the field for their first public training camp practice on August 2, Bech should have an advantage for what amounts to a fifth spot in the rotation, as his biggest competition will come from Dont'e Thornton Jr. and sixth-round rookie Malik Benson, but without a notable push for a regular place in two-receiver sets, he is unlikely to matter for fantasy as RotoBaller's WR96.
