Elic Ayomanor News
Monday, June 29, 12:49 PM
A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor recorded 41 receptions for 515 yards and four touchdowns on 89 targets across 16 games as a rookie. While Ayomanor operated with subpar quarterback play from Cam Ward, he had the advantage of being one of Ward's top targets for much of the year. Entering 2026, the Titans have a much stronger pass-catching corps. The team signed wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency, selected wide receiver Carnell Tate fourth overall in the 2026 NFL Draft, and should get more out of veteran wideout Calvin Ridley, who missed 10 games in 2025. As a result, Ayomanor could see a significantly diminished role in 2026 and beyond. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore selling high on the second-year wideout.

Ted Hurst News
Friday, June 26, 12:06 PM
After recording 71 catches for 1,004 yards and six touchdowns across 12 games at Georgia State in 2025, wide receiver Ted Hurst was selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Hurst may not be expected to contribute right away in a Tampa Bay passing game that already features a deep group of wide receivers in Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin Jr., Jalen McMillan, and Tez Johnson. Still, Hurst profiles as a true outside X receiver, which may make him the most logical long-term replacement for former Bucs wideout Mike Evans, who departed the team in free agency. Godwin Jr. and McMillan both battled significant injury issues in 2025, which could be another route for Hurst to find his way onto the field. Dynasty managers should not expect immediate production from Hurst, but he profiles as a worthy stash candidate for rebuilding teams.
