Can Jerry Jeudy Bounce Back from Underwhelming 2025 Campaign?

Monday, March 16, 10:08 AM

Across 17 games in 2025, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy recorded just 50 receptions for 602 yards and two touchdowns on 106 targets. With a catch rate of under 50%, Jeudy was one of the least efficient high-target wideouts in the NFL. His struggles were not entirely his fault, as Cleveland rotated through a cast of underwhelming starting quarterbacks in Joe Flacco, Dillon Gabriel, and Shedeur Sanders. Still, Jeudy's 2025 production was a stark decline from his Pro-Bowl 2024 output, when he hauled in 90 receptions for over 1,200 yards. Heading into 2026, there's no guarantee that the quarterback situation in Cleveland will be improved. Barring a draft-day addition, Sanders and Gabriel appear poised to compete for the starting job in training camp. On a more positive note, Jeudy should not face much internal competition for targets outside of young tight end Harold Fannin Jr. Still, Jeudy's dynasty value is trending in the wrong direction after his disappointing 2025.

Christian Watson News

Is Christian Watson's Breakout Season Coming in 2026?

Wednesday, March 25, 4:16 PM

As long as he can stay healthy, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson will be a popular breakout candidate in fantasy football in 2026 in his fifth year in the NFL. Watson has yet to play in more than 15 games in a season due to injuries since being drafted in the second round in 2022 out of North Dakota State. The 26-year-old played in just 10 regular-season games in 2025 after recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered late in 2024, but he still ended up being a top-50 fantasy wideout. Watson excelled as a top playmaker for Green Bay upon his return from Injured Reserve, catching 35 of his 55 targets for 611 yards and six touchdowns. He finished second on the team in catches, targets, and receiving yards to Romeo Doubs, who is now in New England. Tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) will be returning from a torn ACL, and second-year wideout Matthew Golden will have a bigger role, but all signs point to Watson being the projected clear receiving leader in 2026 if he's healthy. Watson's big-play ability (17.0 yards per catch in his career) will make him a high-risk/high-reward WR2 in fantasy drafts later this year.
