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.

Pat Bryant News
Friday, May 29, 7:48 AM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant is a talented, young playmaker, but his rise to prominence could be on hold following the team's offseason moves. The Broncos entered this offseason with a receiver room featuring Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Marvin Mims Jr., and Bryant, and they proceeded to make a huge splash by trading for Jaylen Waddle. Bryant projects as the No. 4 receiver in Denver, making it difficult for him to carve out a meaningful role in the near future. He has plenty of long-term upside, as he's just 23 years old, but the receiver room remains crowded with Sutton signed through 2029 and Waddle signed through 2028. Bryant's upside is capped for now, and he ranks as the overall WR91 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
