Efton Chism III Building Deep-League Redraft Appeal

Sunday, August 23, 9:12 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Efton Chism III keeps making the most of a crowded situation. Chism caught all four of his targets for 45 yards in Saturday's 24-21 preseason win over Philadelphia, moving the chains on a 24-yard catch on third down and again after an eight-yard grab. This wasn't a one-night flash, either. Chism has been working as the backup slot receiver with Tommy DeVito and the second-team offense, and Mike Vrabel praised his blocking, competitiveness and ability to show up when needed earlier this month. He made the roster as an undrafted rookie last year, though the regular-season opportunities were scarce. Chism caught three passes for 75 yards and a touchdown in eight games. The path is still ugly for redraft purposes with A.J. Brown, Romeo Doubs, DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins and Kyle Williams all in the room. Chism isn't suddenly a standard-league target because of four preseason catches. He is making it harder for New England to ignore him, though, and Saturday gave deeper-league managers another reason to keep his name tucked away.

Josh Cameron News

Josh Cameron Too Far Down the Jaguars Depth Chart to Offer Value?

Friday, June 19, 6:02 AM

The Jacksonville Jaguars clearly viewed wide receiver Josh Cameron as one of the top remaining players on their board when they traded up to select him in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, but in a receiver room already difficult enough to sort at the top, there is no realistic potential of fantasy relevance so close to the bottom. With Brian Thomas Jr., Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers, and Travis Hunter all expected to hold their own roles in Jacksonville's offense, Cameron's clearest path to a roster spot is likely to come through special teams. Over the past three seasons at Baylor, Cameron returned 45 punts at a highly respectable 14.0-yard average, but, built more like a running back than a traditional X-receiver, his brightest future in the league could come as a kickoff returner. With some fantasy leagues adapting to the NFL's dynamic kickoff changes and rewarding return points, Cameron is not entirely unworthy of a roster spot, but in most formats, he is best left on waivers.
