Davante Adams News
Wednesday, July 15, 10:45 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams put together a stellar first season in Los Angeles in 2025, recording 60 receptions for 789 yards and 14 touchdowns on 114 targets across 14 games. Adams finished as the WR9 in both per-game and total PPR scoring, even while missing three games with a hamstring injury. Entering 2026, there are several reasons to expect regression from Adams. For one, the veteran wideout is entering his age-34 season. Additionally, his production last year was highly dependent on touchdown scoring, which is typically an unreliable predictor of future success. However, Adams remained a high-volume target option in 2025, averaging over eight targets per game. Even if his touchdown production falls off to some degree, Adams' catch rate could easily improve from last year's career-worst mark of 52.6%. While Adams should not be drafted as the WR9, he could once again provide positive value for fantasy managers at his current redraft ADP of WR25.

Chase Claypool News
Friday, May 1, 10:40 AM
The Green Bay Packers will have former Pittsburgh Steelers and Chicago Bears wide receiver Chase Claypool present at their rookie minicamp this weekend for a tryout, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Claypool last played in the NFL in 2023 with the Bears and Miami Dolphins, catching eight of his 21 targets for 77 yards and one touchdown in 12 games played (two starts). Claypool, now 27 years old, was a second-round pick by Pittsburgh in 2020 out of Notre Dame. The best season in his four NFL seasons came in his rookie season in the Steel City, when he caught 62 passes for 873 yards and nine touchdowns on 109 targets across 16 games (six starts). Claypool also had over 800 receiving yards in his sophomore campaign with the Steelers, but he was never the same after being acquired by the Bears in the middle of the 2022 season. Green Bay lost Romeo Doubs in free agency and traded Dontayvion Wicks to the Eagles this offseason, so they could use some depth at the position behind Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and Matthew Golden after ignoring the position in the NFL draft recently.
