Dontayvion Wicks News
Sunday, March 22, 10:56 AM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks continues to face an uphill battle to earn consistent volume ahead of the 2026 season. While the departure of Romeo Doubs in free agency initially seemed like it might lead to more opportunities for Wicks, the latest reporting indicates that 2025 first-round pick Matthew Golden will benefit most from Doubs' departure. As a result, the Packers are expected to proceed with Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, and Golden as their top three receivers, leaving Doubs still buried in a depth role. He didn't do a whole lot to help his case in 2025, catching just 30 passes for 332 yards and two touchdowns across 14 games. All of those numbers set new career lows for the Virginia product. Now 24 years old, Wicks is heading into a contract year but remains an unappealing option in most redraft and dynasty leagues.

Malik Washington News
Saturday, March 21, 8:54 AM
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington has a real opportunity in 2026 to be a sleeper breakout receiver for fantasy managers in both single-year and keeper leagues as part of the Dolphins' offensive rebuild. Miami has a new front office and coaching staff, and they have gutted their previous offensive regime this offseason by cutting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and receiver Tyreek Hill (knee) and trading Jaylen Waddle. They signed for Dallas Cowboys wideout Jalen Tolbert, but as of now, Washington projects as the team's WR2 as he heads into his third year in the NFL. Some fantasy managers were hoping the former sixth-rounder would step up in Hill's absence last year, but he only managed 46 catches on 65 targets for 317 yards and three touchdowns in 17 games played. Washington's fantasy arrow is definitely pointing up in dynasty/keeper leagues right now due to the increased volume he's likely to see in 2026, but it remains to be seen if he can take advantage of it and develop solid chemistry with new quarterback Malik Willis.
