Jakobi Meyers the Jaguars Receiver to Target in Dynasty Leagues?

Monday, April 13, 7:22 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is trending up in dynasty leagues ahead of the 2026 season. The Jaguars acquired Meyers from the Las Vegas Raiders in a midseason trade last year, and the change of scenery was exactly what he needed to become a weekly fantasy contributor. The former undrafted free agent emerged as the overall WR17 in half-PPR leagues from Week 11-18. Not only was he a productive fantasy receiver, but he also flourished as the best receiver in Jacksonville. With Travis Hunter (knee) injured and Brian Thomas Jr. enduring a second-year slump, Meyers capitalized on the opportunity to produce. Going forward, he has a chance to remain the top receiver in Jacksonville. Hunter is expected to play fewer offensive snaps next year, Thomas' future with the Jaguars remains uncertain, and Parker Washington has taken a step forward but is unlikely to pass Meyers on the depth chart. Fortunately for all the receivers, quarterback Trevor Lawrence has shown that he can support multiple fantasy-relevant skill players. Meyers ranks as the WR38 in the latest dynasty rankings, but his recent three-year extension confirms that he's part of the Jaguars' long-term vision. He has top-24 upside in 2026.

Khalil Shakir News

Has Khalil Shakir Fallen Too Far in Dynasty Rankings?

Wednesday, April 15, 5:52 AM

Buffalo wide receiver Khalil Shakir has finished each of the past two seasons as a low-end WR3 in PPR formats, but following the Bills' acquisition of DJ Moore via trade, he has fallen to WR56 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. While Shakir is likely to see a decline in volume, the drawn converge and space created by Moore could further open up one of the strongest elements of his game. Shakir's 7.7 yards after catch per reception since entering the league in 2022 is an elite number, aided by his connection with Josh Allen in off-schedule moments. That chemistry could still make him a trusted target when plays break down, allowing Shakir to supplement some of his volume-based production with big plays. While his overall profile could shift from a high-floor, low-ceiling safety net to more of a boom-or-bust option, the 26-year-old Shakir should still find his way to fantasy relevance in 2026 and beyond, and is likely undervalued in dynasty circles.
