Dyami Brown News
Saturday, June 20, 12:02 PM
Following four seasons with the Washington Commanders and a 14-catch, 229-yard postseason run in 2024, wide receiver Dyami Brown signed a one-year, $10 million contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025, but after a disappointing 20-catch, 227-yard performance, he has reunited with Washington on another one-year deal. Terry McLaurin and Luke McCaffrey are familiar faces from his last stint with the team, but the Commanders have spent third and fourth-round picks on Antonio Williams and Jaylin Lane in the past two drafts, while adding tight end Chig Okonkwo and running back Rachaad White as free agents in 2026. Still far from the league's most talented group of pass catchers, the Commanders' depth is notably stronger than what Brown faced in 2024 when he served as the team's third receiver behind Olamide Zaccheaus. Turning 27 this season, the sixth-year veteran has topped 300 yards only once and never bested two touchdowns or a WR99 finish, and at RotoBaller's dynasty WR131, Brown is not a player who needs to be rostered.

Dont'e Thornton Jr. News
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.
