Jerry Jeudy Making a Late Push Up Redraft Boards

Wednesday, August 26, 12:02 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has started to regain some redraft appeal with Deshaun Watson now locked in as the Week 1 starter. Jeudy's 2025 season was ugly despite heavy volume, as he caught just 50 of 106 targets for 602 yards and two touchdowns after posting 90 catches for 1,229 yards and four scores the year before. The late-camp connection with Watson has been more encouraging. Watson found Jeudy for a solid gain during Monday's first practice as the starter, then connected with him four times Tuesday, including a deep completion over the middle during 11-on-11 work. Jeudy still has plenty of competition. Cleveland spent the 24th overall pick on KC Concepcion and the 39th pick on Denzel Boston, with Boston continuing to make plays alongside Jeudy in first-team work. Still, Jeudy remains listed as a starter and has stayed involved as Watson has taken control of the offense. RotoBaller now ranks him WR67 in half-PPR after listing him WR79 earlier this month. That movement fits the current trend, with Jeudy looking more interesting as a late-round depth receiver than he did a few weeks ago.

Ja'Kobi Lane Primed for Breakout Role with Ravens?

Friday, September 4, 8:47 AM

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane has drawn praise and created a lot of hype for himself throughout training camp and the preseason. In fact, Matt Verderame of Sports Illustrated recently included the rookie wideout in his "10 Breakout Players to Watch in 2026" article after speaking with coaches and executives across the league. The 6-foot-4, 205-pound Lane is expected to operate as Baltimore's No. 3 wide receiver behind Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman this season. However, there is a chance that Lane could play an even bigger role, as Bateman is under investigation by the NFL and could potentially face a suspension. It would not be surprising if Lane outperforms Bateman this year. The Ravens selected Lane out of USC in the third round (No. 80 overall) of the 2026 NFL Draft. He is expected to play an immediate role. Lane is currently rostered in just 19% of Yahoo leagues and is worth considering on the waiver wire or in the later rounds of your drafts. Lane currently has a Yahoo ADP of 126.8. He ranks as the No. 181 overall player and No. 70 wide receiver at RotoBaller.
