DK Metcalf News
Wednesday, April 22, 7:39 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf had an underwhelming season in his first year with the team in 2025, finishing the year with 59 receptions for 850 yards and six touchdowns on 99 targets across 15 games. Despite profiling as the obvious number one pass-catcher in Pittsburgh, Metcalf set career lows in both targets and receiving yards. To fortify their receiving corps, the Steelers swung a big trade for former Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. earlier this offseason. While Pittman Jr.'s presence could relieve some defensive pressure from Metcalf, it could also lead to Metcalf seeing yet another reduction in targets. Additionally, the Steelers quarterback situation currently remains in flux while the team waits for Aaron Rodgers to make a decision on whether or not he will play in 2026. Dynasty managers may not want to sell Metcalf at an apparent low point in his value, but there's a real possibility that his stock could sink even further as he enters his age-29 season.

Jakobi Meyers News
Monday, April 13, 7:22 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is trending up in dynasty leagues ahead of the 2026 season. The Jaguars acquired Meyers from the Las Vegas Raiders in a midseason trade last year, and the change of scenery was exactly what he needed to become a weekly fantasy contributor. The former undrafted free agent emerged as the overall WR17 in half-PPR leagues from Week 11-18. Not only was he a productive fantasy receiver, but he also flourished as the best receiver in Jacksonville. With Travis Hunter (knee) injured and Brian Thomas Jr. enduring a second-year slump, Meyers capitalized on the opportunity to produce. Going forward, he has a chance to remain the top receiver in Jacksonville. Hunter is expected to play fewer offensive snaps next year, Thomas' future with the Jaguars remains uncertain, and Parker Washington has taken a step forward but is unlikely to pass Meyers on the depth chart. Fortunately for all the receivers, quarterback Trevor Lawrence has shown that he can support multiple fantasy-relevant skill players. Meyers ranks as the WR38 in the latest dynasty rankings, but his recent three-year extension confirms that he's part of the Jaguars' long-term vision. He has top-24 upside in 2026.
