John Metchie III News
Tuesday, May 26, 12:50 PM
Entering 2026, Carolina Panthers wide receiver John Metchie III will be playing for his fourth team in four NFL seasons. The 25-year-old started 2025 with the Philadelphia Eagles, earning just four targets across seven games with the team. A midseason trade to the New York Jets allowed him more playing time, and he hauled in 29 catches for 256 yards and two scores on 44 targets across nine games with New York. With the Panthers, Metchie III's playing time is far from guaranteed. However, outside of 2025 first-round wideout Tetairoa McMillan, no Carolina wideout has ever recorded 50 receptions in a season. Metchie III should also have existing chemistry with Panthers quarterback Bryce Young, as the two of them played their college football together at the University of Alabama. In deeper dynasty formats, Metchie III could be a worthy buy-low dart throw for fantasy managers entering 2026.

Marvin Harrison Jr. News
Monday, April 27, 9:59 AM
Two years into his NFL career, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has not lived up to the pre-draft hype that led to him being selected with the fourth overall pick in 2024. Across 12 games in 2025, Harrison Jr. hauled in 41 receptions for 608 yards and four touchdowns on 73 targets. He missed time due to a concussion and appendicitis before finally ending the year on Injured Reserve with a heel injury. Even before the heel issue, Harrison Jr. was clearly behind both tight end Trey McBride and wide receiver Michael Wilson on the Cardinals' pecking order for targets. Still, Harrison Jr. will have a chance to work with a new coaching staff in 2026, which could help spur a year-three breakout. Arizona could be a bit more run-heavy after adding Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love with the third overall pick in the 2026 Draft, but Harrison Jr. should still have every chance to carve out a significant role in his team's offense. Harrison Jr.'s dynasty value has obviously taken a hit over the past two years, but he remains an ultra-high-upside wide receiver.
