Davante Adams News
Monday, February 16, 5:35 PM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams capitalized on his high-scoring role within an omnipotent offense during the 2025 regular season. The Rams' offense steamrolled most opponents in their path, largely thanks to the elite talent of Adams, Puka Nacua, and quarterback Matthew Stafford. The veteran receiver benefitted from having Stafford to throw him passes, as the two connected for 14 touchdowns over Los Angeles' first 12 games. The frequent trips to the end zone allowed him to turn in his best fantasy finish (WR9) since 2022, despite posting his lowest yardage total since 2015 in Green Bay. Adams isn't getting younger, and we know that he's still the No. 2 option in the passing game behind Nacua. However, this past season proved that Adams remains a talented, must-start receiver in fantasy football. He's a solid top-12 receiver option heading into redraft leagues in 2026. On the other hand, dynasty managers might want to consider selling high, as he's 33 years old and the peak of his career is behind him.

DK Metcalf News
Friday, March 13, 7:33 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf suddenly finds himself facing plenty of competition for targets on offense. The 28-year-old entered this offseason as the Steelers' clear No. 1 receiver, and it initially seemed like he was due for even more targets with Calvin Austin III slated for free agency. While Austin did indeed sign elsewhere (the New York Giants, to be exact), Pittsburgh brought in a major pass-catching threat by trading for Michael Pittman Jr. Not only is the former Indianapolis Colts receiver a huge contributor on offense, but he could push to take over as the Steelers' No. 1 receiver in front of Metcalf. That's not bad news for the Steelers -- two top receivers is a nice luxury to have -- but it's potentially concerning for Metcalf's dynasty managers. Pittsburgh's offense wasn't great by any means last year, and they could go run-heavy in 2026 with Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle in tow. If Metcalf can't even separate himself from Pittman, he might have trouble improving on his 2025 stat line, which included 59 catches, 850 yards, and six touchdowns. Metcalf should be viewed as a mid-to-high WR3 with WR2 upside.
