Jahan Dotson News
Tuesday, July 21, 11:36 AM
The 16th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft by the Washington Commanders, current Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Jahan Dotson has yet to live up to his draft-day pedigree. Dotson spent the 2025 season with the Philadelphia Eagles, recording 18 catches for 262 yards and one touchdown on 36 targets across 17 games (10 starts). However, the 26-year-old could have the fresh start he needs this season in Atlanta. The Falcons have a superstar WR1 in Drake London, but Dotson currently appears to be competing with veteran Olamide Zaccheaus and third-round rookie Zachariah Branch for WR2 duties. While Dotson has played a very low-usage role with the Eagles over the past two seasons, he recorded over 1,000 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns across the first two seasons of his career with the Commanders. Given his opportunity to re-establish himself in Atlanta, Dotson profiles as an intriguing dynasty buy-low candidate ahead of 2026.

Jalen McMillan News
Thursday, July 16, 10:45 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan's 2025 season was derailed by a preseason neck injury that kept him out until Week 15. However, the 24-year-old should be healthy heading into 2026, and he will have an opportunity to earn a larger role in the Tampa Bay passing game following the offseason departure of former Bucs' wideout Mike Evans. McMillan has flashed upside across the first 17 games of his NFL career, recording 49 catches for 639 yards and eight touchdowns on 73 targets. While Emeka Egbuka is likely locked into the WR1 role in Tampa Bay, presumed Bucs WR2 Chris Godwin Jr. is entering his age-30 season and has battled both injuries and declining production in recent years. As the WR59 by current redraft ADP, McMillan profiles as a sneaky sleeper for fantasy managers to target in drafts ahead of 2026.
