Jakobi Meyers News
Tuesday, March 24, 5:52 AM
After a mid-season trade sent wide receiver Jakobi Meyers from the Raiders to the Jacksonville Jaguars, the seventh-year wideout played the final eight games of the year on a full-season pace of 83 receptions for 939 yards and six touchdowns, numbers that would have all led the team in 2025. With a full team offseason under his belt, Meyers will enter 2026 with a realistic shot of becoming the go-to receiver in one of the league's most ambiguous rooms. Following the trade, Jacksonville locked up Meyers with a three-year extension, and while the team has denied floating Brian Thomas Jr.'s name in recent trade talks, rumors that he still might be moved refuse to go away. 2025 second overall pick Travis Hunter is expected to spend more time on the defensive side of the ball in his second season, and while Parker Washington offers more upside potential, Meyers is likely the safest bet to lead the team in targets in 2026.

Emeka Egbuka News
Monday, March 30, 11:38 AM
The number 19 overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka recorded 63 receptions for 938 yards and six touchdowns on 127 targets across 17 games. The 23-year-old stepped into a larger role in the Tampa Bay offense than might have been expected immediately after he was drafted, as Buccaneers wideouts Mike Evans, Chris Godwin Jr., and Jalen McMillan all missed significant time due to injury. Heading into 2026, Evans has departed the Buccaneers for the San Francisco 49ers in free agency, and Egbuka looks like the clear WR1 in Tampa Bay. Egbuka's overall stat line from 2025 was weighed down by a quiet close to the year, as he averaged just 4.25 targets per game over his final four games played when the Bucs' wide receiver room was at its healthiest. Now that he's in a clear leading role, Egbuka could easily emerge as a fantasy WR1 as soon as 2026. He profiles as a top-12 wide receiver in dynasty formats.
