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.

Ricky Pearsall News

Ricky Pearsall Not Yet Ready to Make the WR1 Leap

Tuesday, April 21, 7:41 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall struggled to stay on the field last season. When healthy, he typically operated as the Niners' No. 2 receiver behind Jauan Jennings. Although Jennings is expected to sign elsewhere in free agency, the 49ers replaced him with proven No. 1 receiver Mike Evans. The presence of Evans will block Pearsall from making a significant leap up the depth chart this offseason. With that said, there's still the potential for Pearsall to take strides performance-wise. He's coming off a frustrating season in which he played parts of just nine games, catching 36 passes for 528 yards and zero touchdowns. He might not emerge as a major touchdown threat over Evans, Christian McCaffrey, and George Kittle, but he's still due for a little positive scoring regression. Plus, he's a safe bet for between five and eight targets per game, when healthy. If Pearsall can stay on the field, the arrival of Evans won't be that big of a concern. The 25-year-old Florida product can still be a low-end WR3/flex in dynasty and redraft leagues.
