Deebo Samuel Sr. News
Wednesday, July 22, 5:37 AM
With training camps opening around the league, teams are likely working through their lists of available free agents in the event an injury opens an unexpected roster spot, and one unsigned player who believes he still has plenty of good football ahead of him is veteran wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. In a recent video posted to his YouTube channel, Samuel touched upon the emotional rollercoaster of the free agent process and stated outright, "[I] still feel like I got a lot, at least like three, four good years left." The 30-year-old former All-Pro spent his 2025 season with the Washington Commanders after six, at times, electric years with the 49ers. While the physical toll on his body has prevented him from matching his star-making performance of 2021, in which he racked up 1,770 yards from scrimmage and 14 touchdowns, he did lead the Commanders across all major receiving categories last season and still has the versatility to make him a fantasy-viable player in the right home in 2026.

Travis Hunter News
Thursday, July 23, 11:41 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter is one of the hardest players to price in dynasty because his real-life value may not match his fantasy role. His rookie season ended after seven games when an isolated LCL injury in his right knee required surgery. Hunter caught 28 of 45 targets for 298 yards and one touchdown, with eight catches for 101 yards against the Rams accounting for his only clear offensive breakout. Jacksonville still plans to use him both ways, but the expectation entering camp leans toward a full-time defensive role and selective work on offense. That is a problem for fantasy managers. Brian Thomas Jr., Parker Washington, and Jakobi Meyers already give the Jaguars three established receivers, so Hunter does not need to run a full route tree every week. RotoBaller ranks him 114th overall in dynasty. Managers already holding him should wait for camp usage rather than sell low. Rebuilders can buy only at a price that reflects the route uncertainty. Contenders need a steadier offensive role before paying for the name and draft pedigree.
