Deebo Samuel Sr. News
Friday, June 5, 1:00 PM
Veteran wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. was arguably his team's most consistent pass-catcher in his first season with the Washington Commanders in 2025, recording 72 catches for 727 yards and five touchdowns on 99 targets across 16 games. Samuel Sr. remained productive as a rusher as well, adding 75 yards and a score on 17 carries. However, the 30-year-old currently remains unsigned with just a few months until the 2026 regular season gets underway. Samuel Sr. has always been reliant on his ability to make plays after the catch, so teams may be wary of his body breaking down. At this point, Samuel Sr. seems ticketed for a complementary role and a short-term contract, leaving his NFL future very much in question. Still, Samuel Sr. remained a useful fantasy wide receiver in 2025 and could be capable of providing similar production in 2026. For win-now dynasty managers, Samuel Sr. may be worth buying low on before he finds a new team.

CeeDee Lamb News
Thursday, June 18, 8:23 AM
Relative to his own lofty standards, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb had a down year in 2025. The 27-year-old missed three games with an ankle injury and finished the year with 75 receptions for 1,077 yards and three touchdowns on 117 targets. After averaging over 10 targets per game in 2024, Lamb saw his targets decrease to 8.4 per game in 2025. Part of the reason for the decline was the emergence of fellow Cowboys wideout George Pickens. However, Lamb's efficiency went up in terms of both yards per reception and yards per target while sharing the field with a vertical threat like Pickens in 2025. With better health, Lamb could re-emerge as a dominant force in the short and intermediate areas of the field. Pickens is also playing the 2026 season on the franchise tag and remains without a long-term extension from Dallas. Even if Pickens' presence is a real impediment to Lamb's production, his long-term dynasty outlook is unchanged until Pickens extends with the Cowboys.
