DeMario Douglas News
Thursday, February 19, 5:04 PM
New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas had a disappointing third year in the NFL, even though his team advanced all the way to the Super Bowl. The 25-year-old pass-catcher had career lows in catches (31), targets (46), and receiving yards (447) while scoring just three touchdowns for the second straight season in 17 regular-season games. Quarterback Drake Maye was in the running for MVP honors in his second season, but Douglas just couldn't stand out in a crowded receiving corps that also included Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, and rookie Kyle Williams. His 447 receiving yards were fifth on the team, and he added seven carries for 21 yards on the ground. Douglas will be in a contract year in 2026, but with all of the above-mentioned receivers returning to New England, it's hard to envision Douglas becoming a strong weekly fantasy football option.

Rome Odunze News
Monday, May 4, 5:14 AM
Throughout his first two years in the league, Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze has shown moments that justify his selection as the ninth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, but inconsistency and a loaded depth chart have hurt his placement in dynasty rankings. By the end of the 2025 season, four Bears players were reliably earning targets, but with Chicago trading away veteran DJ Moore, the 2026 passing offense is expected to be condensed through Odunze and second-year players Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland. Odunze missed five games but led all Bears pass catchers with 10.7 fantasy points per game despite seeing the most off-target throws on the team. When things are clicking between Odunze and Caleb Williams, as they were through the first four weeks of the season, the 6'3", 214-pound receiver can be a game-changer. With Williams expected to take another step forward in Ben Johnson's offense, Odunze, currently RotoBaller's dynasty WR23, could see his stock rise significantly.
