James Conner News
Friday, March 13, 5:37 AM
Two-time Pro-Bowl running back James Conner and the Arizona Cardinals agreed to a restructured contract that would keep him in the desert for the 2026 season. One day later, the team agreed to a two-year deal with Tyler Allgeier, adding depth to a running back room that already featured 2024 third-round pick Trey Benson. None of the three backs has a guaranteed salary above $2.1 million in 2026, and with a new coaching staff, this committee situation profiles as one of the murkiest in the league. Allgeier has the most experience in the type of wide-zone scheme expected to be implemented by offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, while Benson offers the most explosiveness, and Conner still boasts the best hands and receiving ability. With the Cardinals coming off a 3-14 season and expected to return Jacoby Brissett as the starting quarterback, this backfield may not find itself in a position to deliver much overall value, regardless of the division of labor.

Marvin Harrison Jr. News
Sunday, March 15, 12:30 PM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. had another underwhelming season in 2025. Once viewed as a near lock to succeed in the NFL, Harrison has been one of the biggest disappointments in dynasty fantasy football. He was the overall WR30 as a rookie in 2024, and he followed it up with 41 catches, 608 yards, and four touchdowns across 12 games in 2025. He fell to WR49 last year and, more importantly, lost the grasp on his No. 1 receiver job in Arizona. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett built a terrific rapport with breakout receiver Michael Wilson, leaving Harrison in more of a de facto No. 2 role. Brissett is expected to return as the Cardinals' starting quarterback in 2026, and Wilson is also back as the potential top receiver. As a result, dynasty managers should be prepared for another subpar season from Harrison. Even if he manages to stay healthy for a full 17 games, he's firmly entrenched as a WR3/flex option, falling short of the lofty WR1 expectations that were attached to him in the 2024 NFL Draft.
