DJ Moore News
Thursday, March 5, 7:24 AM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze has shown brilliant flashes throughout his first two seasons, but he has yet to capitalize on the potential that made him the ninth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. With teammate DJ Moore now being shipped to Buffalo via trade, the door is wide open for him claim the WR1 spot in Ben Johnson's fantasy-friendly offense. Despite missing five games in 2025, Odunze led the Bears in targets, and along with Moore was one of four players to top 600 receiving yards. With Moore's 80 regular-season targets likely to be distributed between Odunze and promising second-year players Luther Burden III and tight end Colston Loveland, all should see a boost in productivity, and will likely all see their dynasty cost rise dramatically.

DeVonta Smith News
Monday, March 2, 1:55 PM
The Athletic's Zach Berman writes that "there's an internal sentiment" among the Philadelphia Eagles that wide receiver DeVonta Smith "has another level he can reach," regardless of what happens with fellow wideout A.J. Brown. Smith's 113 targets in 2025 were the second-most of his career, and they still ranked 22nd in the NFL. Since entering the NFL in 2021 as a first-rounder (10th overall) out of Alabama, the 27-year-old is 77th in targets per route and 10th in receiving yards per target. Berman goes on to write that the Eagles' new scheme "must find ways to highlight Smith and diversify his routes." The easiest path to a potential breakout in 2026 is if the Eagles trade Brown. That would give Smith a clear path to WR1 duties in a new offense in Philadelphia with potentially even more targets from quarterback Jalen Hurts. If Brown stays with the Eagles, Smith will still be a fine fantasy target, but more of a boom/bust one.
