Dyami Brown's Strong Camp Hasn't Cleared a Path to Targets

Monday, August 10, 11:12 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown has made enough plays in camp to stay in the conversation, including a touchdown from Jayden Daniels during Monday's competitive period. The problem is that Washington's receiver room changed around him. The Commanders signed Stefon Diggs last week, and their first unofficial depth chart lists Terry McLaurin, Luke McCaffrey and Diggs atop the three receiver spots, with Brown behind McLaurin. Dan Quinn quickly dismissed that chart as little more than a preseason snapshot, so it should not be treated as final. Brown still has work to do to turn practice flashes into fantasy volume. He caught just 20 passes for 227 yards and one touchdown on 37 targets in 14 games for Jacksonville last season, playing 31% of the offensive snaps. Brown can still earn a rotational role, but Diggs is already getting more work with Daniels and the target competition is only getting tougher. His camp is worth tracking, but the path to consistent redraft value remains narrow.

Joshua Palmer Pushing Hard for a Top-Three Role

Sunday, August 23, 11:55 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer looks a lot different now that last year's knee and ankle problems are behind him. Palmer managed only 22 catches for 303 yards in 12 games during his first season in Buffalo, then missed the playoffs after never really getting healthy again. This summer has gone much better. He caught two deep balls from Josh Allen on August 11, made a tough back-shoulder grab during the August 18 open practice and stayed hot against Cleveland two days later. Palmer came down with a covered touchdown in the red zone during the joint practice and connected with Allen again in seven-on-seven work. Buffalo has said his camp has put him in good position to earn a top-three receiver role, though there is still competition for those snaps. Palmer hasn't won anything yet. He has at least looked like the healthy downfield threat the Bills thought they were getting a year ago. RotoBaller has him 258th overall in PPR, which leaves him firmly in late-round territory if he carries this momentum into September.
