Isaac TeSlaa Emerging as a Late-Round Redraft Sleeper

Sunday, July 12, 10:29 AM

The Detroit Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa did not see much of the ball as a rookie, but he made his limited chances count. Six of his 16 catches went for touchdowns, and Detroit started leaning on him more late in the year. TeSlaa caught 12 passes for 174 yards and four scores from Weeks 13 through 18 after opening the season as the fourth receiver. He now enters camp behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, with Dan Campbell saying the coaching staff grew more comfortable with him as 2025 went along. The 6-foot-4, 214-pound wideout also drew praise for his work this spring. Targets will be the issue. St. Brown, Williams, Sam LaPorta, and Jahmyr Gibbs are all going to be featured, and TeSlaa will not keep scoring on nearly a quarter of his opportunities. Detroit does expect his role to grow in Drew Petzing's offense, though. With TeSlaa sitting at WR70 in RotoBaller's rankings and carrying an ADP of 255, he is a cheap swing on size, red-zone work, and a possible second-year jump.

Denzel Boston News

Denzel Boston Impresses Coaching Staff During Offseason Workouts

Friday, June 26, 9:36 AM

Cleveland Browns rookie second-round wide receiver Denzel Boston "might have been the most impressive offensive player in the (Browns') spring sessions," according to Zac Jackson of The Athletic. The Browns still have Jerry Jeudy atop their WR depth chart, but Boston and fellow rookie KC Concepcion (24th overall pick in April) should make immediate impacts in new head coach Todd Monken's offense in 2026. Of course, the Browns' quarterback situation -- competition between Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders -- isn't ideal, but the 6-foot-4, 209-pound Boston could see plenty of targets on the outside in his first year in the NFL. If Boston continues to impress the coaching staff during training camp this summer, he should at least be considered Cleveland's WR2 behind Jeudy, with a chance to overtake him later this year if Jeudy's struggles persist. In his final two collegiate seasons at the University of Washington, Boston hauled in 125 catches for 1,715 yards and 20 touchdowns in 25 games played. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 60 fantasy WR as he heads into his first year in the league.
