Dont'e Thornton Jr. News

Dont'e Thornton Jr. is Losing Traction in Dynasty Formats

Friday, June 19, 6:02 PM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. was unable to find much success this past season. To be fair, the Raiders' offense was horrible as a unit, but Thornton barely showed up on the stat sheet. He finished the season with 10 receptions for 135 receiving yards and zero touchdowns in 13 games. The 24-year-old might've missed his opportunity with the Raiders adding some reinforcements this offseason. They signed Jalen Nailor and Dareke Young in free agency, while adding Malik Benson in the sixth round of this year's draft. Thornton could fall to fourth on the depth chart, which is not a good spot, given Brock Bowers eats a ton of targets at tight end as well. He's young enough to hold onto in dynasty leagues, but Thornton having a consistent role in 2026 seems unlikely.

Isaiah Bond News

Is Isaiah Bond Still Worthy of a Dynasty Roster Spot?

Saturday, June 6, 12:49 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond recorded 18 receptions for 338 yards and zero touchdowns on 44 targets across 16 games as a rookie in 2025. The 22-year-old wasn't exactly helped by the offensive environment around him in Cleveland, which was one of the worst in the NFL last season. Still, Bond was unable to establish himself as a consistent contributor in a Browns' passing game that was desperately searching for pass-catching talent to emerge. Entering 2026, Bond looks to be in a much worse position to secure a spot in Cleveland's long-term plans. The Browns used top-40 picks in the 2026 NFL Draft on wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston and retained veteran wideouts Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman. Bond still carries some dynasty upside, but he may also find himself completely on the outside looking in in Cleveland. RotoBaller ranks Bond as the dynasty WR113 heading into 2026.
