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.

Michael Pittman Jr. News
Monday, March 9, 8:57 AM
The Pittsburgh Steelers are acquiring wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. from the Indianapolis Colts on Monday in exchange for a late-round pick, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. The Colts deemed Pittman expendable after re-signing Alec Pierce to a four-year deal on Monday. The 28-year-old former second-round pick in 2020 out of USC took another step back in 2025 in his sixth year in the NFL with an 80-784-7 line on 111 targets over 17 games played. Pittman does have two 1,000-yard seasons in his career, but expecting a third in 2026 in Pittsburgh probably isn't wise for fantasy managers, especially when considering the unknown quarterback situation in the Steel City. It's the second straight year Pittsburgh has traded for a wideout -- last year, they landed DK Metcalf from Seattle. In his new digs, Pittman will most likely operate as the WR2 behind Metcalf.
