George Pickens News
Monday, April 27, 7:06 PM
Wide receiver George Pickens has not yet signed the franchise-tag tender with the Dallas Cowboys, according to Todd Archer of ESPN. Reports surfaced last week before the 2026 NFL draft that Pickens planned to sign the franchise tender, but it has not happened yet. Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said last week that the team won't sign the 25-year-old pass-catcher to a long-term extension before the July 15 deadline, so Pickens is expected to play out the 2026 campaign on the franchise tag. Things could get messy, though, as Pickens is expected to be a holdout into training camp and the preseason. If he plays 2026 on the franchise tag, he'll be owed a guaranteed $27.3 million. There's also a possibility that Dallas looks to trade Pickens if a long-term deal can't be reached. The former second-rounder by Pittsburgh in 2022 out of Georgia had a career-best 93-1,429-9 line in 17 games in his first year in Dallas in 2025, which will put him firmly in the WR1 draft rankings for the upcoming season.

Keon Coleman News
Monday, April 27, 7:29 PM
Buffalo Bills president of football operations and general manager Brandon Beane has supported wide receiver Keon Coleman during recent interviews, and he even said the Bills "shut down" a couple of teams that reached out to Buffalo with trade interest in Coleman earlier this offseason. Beane said that Buffalo's intention is for "Keon to be here," and also said the Bills have "hit the reset button with him." Both Beane and new head coach Joe Brady have spoken highly of the work that Coleman has put in this offseason. The 22-year-old former second-rounder in 2024 out of Florida State has been a disappointment for the team in his two NFL seasons, both on and off the field. He regressed in 2025, catching 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games. The Bills' front office and coaching staff might not be giving up on Coleman, but there's no denying that his fantasy stock in dynasty/keeper leagues has dropped significantly. There will be added competition after the Bills acquired DJ Moore in a trade with Chicago, and drafted Skyler Bell out of UConn in the fourth round.
