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.

Xavier Worthy News
Sunday, March 15, 10:11 AM
Valued as high as a dynasty WR2 through the early weeks of the 2025 season, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy is now being drafted as a low-end WR4 in dynasty startups. After setting the NFL Combine record with a 4.21-second 40-yard dash and being drafted in the first round to a Chiefs team in need of playmakers, Worthy was viewed through the lens of unlimited upside despite some holes in his college film. Through two years in his league, his usage and production have not matched those lofty expectations, as he has most often found himself playing near the line of scrimmage, where both Travis Kelce and Rashee Rice dominate target share. With Rice facing potential legal issues heading into 2026, Worthy could again see his value spike, though dynasty managers should again take caution in overvaluing his surrounding narrative at the expense of what he's shown through his first 31 games.
