DK Metcalf News
Wednesday, April 1, 10:10 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf is coming off a productive but inconsistent season, scoring single-digit fantasy points in six of his 15 games. Managers shouldn't panic sell, but it's fair to start having some second thoughts about his dynasty outlook because of the inconsistency. Metcalf finished his first season as a Steeler with 59 catches, 850 yards, and six touchdowns, ranking as the WR26 in PPR leagues. Even with Michael Pittman Jr. on the team going forward, we can expect Metcalf to have a similar fantasy finish in 2026 if quarterback Aaron Rodgers returns. However, if Rodgers doesn't return, Metcalf's fantasy outlook could suffer. There aren't many appealing quarterback options left in free agency, and the Steelers don't have the draft capital to select a premium rookie. Therefore, unless Rodgers re-signs with the Steelers, Metcalf could be paired with a subpar quarterback next season (and beyond). Dynasty managers should hold Metcalf for now before deciding how to proceed in trade talks once the Steelers have more clarity under center.

Jerry Jeudy News
Friday, April 3, 10:45 AM
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is coming off a frustrating 2025 season in which he caught just 50 passes for 602 yards and two touchdowns. Despite being healthy for all 17 games as the Browns' No. 1 receiver, he finished as just the WR52 in PPR leagues. Part of the blame can be attributed to the poor quarterback play of Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel, but we still would have expected Jeudy to see enough volume to consistently get on the fantasy radar. This is nothing new for Jeudy, unfortunately. The former first-round pick has ranked as the WR47 or lower in five of his NFL seasons. He has just two top-45 finishes. We can expect more of the same in 2026 as Jeudy returns to an offense led by either Sanders or Deshaun Watson. Managers can't justify dropping him in dynasty leagues as long as he's the Browns' No. 1 receiver, but he's certainly not worth starting in fantasy lineups. He's worth holding for now in hopes that you can trade him after a flukey big week.
