Jakobi Meyers the New WR1 in Jacksonville?

Tuesday, March 3, 6:01 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers broke out after being acquired midseason, providing plenty of optimism for his outlook in 2026 and beyond. Meyers had 39 catches, 442 yards, and three touchdowns over the final eight games of the regular season. He finished the year as the overall WR32 in PPR leagues despite a subpar start to the year in Vegas. It's unlikely the Jaguars envisioned Meyers becoming a No. 1 wide receiver when they traded for him, but that's the situation they find themselves in ahead of the 2026 campaign. Brian Thomas Jr. had a woefully disappointing second season, finishing behind both Meyers and Parker Washington in both catches, yards, and touchdowns. Meyers, Washington, Thomas, and, to some extent, Travis Hunter will all demand targets in the Jaguars' offense next season. This may not be the most traditional-looking receiver room, but if we were to place a ranking on the pecking order, we'd say that Meyers has an early advantage on the quest to be Jacksonville's WR1 in 2026.

Brenton Strange News

Brenton Strange an Undervalued Breakout Candidate

Wednesday, February 11, 9:22 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars 25-year-old tight end Brenton Strange is currently being drafted outside of the top 12 at his position in dynasty startups after a 2025 season in which he showed glimpses of taking his game to the next level. After a strong start that saw him catch 19 of 23 targets across his first four weeks, he was slowed by a quad injury that landed him on Injured Reserve and cost him five games. Upon his return, he became an integral part of Liam Coen's expanding offense, closing the year on a 17-game pace of 63 receptions for 816 yards and seven touchdowns, numbers that would have put him right in line with the top five at the position. Entering into year two of Coen's offensive installation, Strange could see his role expanded and his value rise, making the 2023 second-round pick a clear target in dynasty leagues.
