J.K. Dobbins News
Thursday, July 9, 11:14 AM
Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) is easier to trust as a 2026 redraft pick than as a long-term dynasty hold. Dobbins looked good when available last season, rushing for 772 yards and four touchdowns in 10 games while averaging 5.0 yards per carry. Denver then brought him back on a two-year deal, so there is still a real early-down path in Sean Payton's offense. The problem is how much managers can actually count on. Dobbins is 27, missed the final seven regular-season games with the foot injury, and the Broncos have added real competition around him. RJ Harvey was a second-round pick in 2025, and fourth-round rookie Jonah Coleman has already been framed as part of a possible three-headed run game. RotoBaller has Dobbins priced around RB30-RB31, which is fair for the risk. He can help redraft managers and dynasty contenders, but rebuilders should sell if another manager is buying a full rebound.

Puka Nacua News
Tuesday, June 23, 8:08 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua has run into some off-field troubles in recent months, checking into a rehab facility in April while simultaneously fighting a civil lawsuit in which a woman alleged gender violence, assault, and battery. However, Nacua is not expected to face discipline from the NFL that would result in missed games in 2026. As long as he's on the field, there's zero question about the 25-year-old's ability to produce at a high level. Across 16 games in 2025, Nacua recorded 129 catches for 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns on 166 targets. 44 games into his NFL career, Nacua is the league's all-time leader in receiving yards per game (95.3). While his off-field questions add some risk to his long-term dynasty outlook, Nacua has number one overall wide receiver upside. He should be viewed as an elite dynasty asset entering 2026.
