Joe Mixon News
Tuesday, April 14, 6:00 AM
When he last took the field, free agent running back Joe Mixon was able to turn 20 touches into exactly 100 yards and a touchdown. Unfortunately, that came 15 months ago in a divisional playoff loss that ended the Texans' 2024 campaign. A mysterious offseason foot injury sustained outside the team facility cost Mixon the entire 2025 season, and he was released prior to the start of the new league year. Because so little information was provided about the injury, dynasty managers are left in a precarious position. The soon-to-be-30-year-old Mixon has become a frustrating hold, as the potential value he could bring by latching on with an NFL team after the draft still outweighs much of what can be found on the dynasty waiver wire. Should a depth-seeking contender offer a late fourth-round pick, he'd be an easy sell, but even that kind of offer would likely require an update to his status or sorts, and as fantasy managers have come to realize all too well, waiting on a Mixon status update has become a patient man's game.

Kyren Williams News
Friday, April 3, 11:05 AM
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams had another terrific season in 2025, ranking as a top-10 fantasy running back for the third year in a row. He contributed over 1,500 scrimmage yards and 13 touchdowns, and he also appeared in all 17 games for the first time in his four-year career. Williams has cemented himself as the lead running back in Los Angeles. While the Rams did get Blake Corum more involved last year, that exercise was more intended to manage Williams' workload so he stayed healthy for the full year. There's no threat of Corum stealing his job. This level of RB1 consistency is rare in fantasy football, and it could point to Williams being a top-five running back in the future. Yet, he is currently being drafted at an ADP of 54 in dynasty startups, which ranks him as the RB18 in dynasty formats. Therein lies a terrific opportunity for dynasty managers to buy low on Williams. If he's valued as the 18th-best running back but has consistently ranked within the top 10, then most managers should be pouncing at the opportunity to buy low on Williams this offseason.
