Jalen Tolbert News
Tuesday, March 17, 5:38 PM
The Miami Dolphins are in full-on rebuild mode after trading away top wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos on Tuesday in exchange for three draft picks, including a first-rounder this year. The Dolphins have already cut All-Pro receiver Tyreek Hill (knee), so free-agent addition Jalen Tolbert is now at the top of the team's receiving depth chart. The 27-year-old signed a one-year deal with Miami last week after spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys. Tolbert was a third-round pick in 2022 out of South Alabama. He had 1,093 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns on 91 catches over his four seasons, with his best season coming in 2024, when he had 49 catches, 610 receiving yards, and seven touchdowns in 17 games. Tolbert reportedly is a close friend of new Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis, too, so even if Miami addresses the position in the upcoming draft, he should have a pretty strong target floor in his first year in South Beach. Tolbert's redraft and dynasty/keeper value arrow is pointing upward.

Luther Burden III News
Tuesday, April 28, 8:37 AM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III got off to a slow start to his rookie season in 2025, recording just 13 catches in his first seven NFL games. However, the 22-year-old closed the year on a tear, hauling in 21 receptions for 324 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets over his final four contests. This offseason, the Bears have added veteran wide receiver Kalif Raymond in free agency and LSU wideout Zavion Thomas with a third-round pick in the 2026 Draft. However, Chicago also traded away veteran wideout DJ Moore. All in all, Burden III looks to be in a prime position to enter 2026 as the Bears' WR2 alongside Rome Odunze. Burden III has proven to be a big-play threat with the ball in his hands, and he has the benefit of playing in a Chicago offense that should only be ascending with the promising quarterback/play-caller combination of Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson in place for the long haul. In dynasty formats, Burden III looks like a potential breakout candidate heading into 2026.
