Is Jordan Addison a Clear Buy-Low Candidate Ahead of 2026?

Wednesday, May 27, 10:11 AM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison had an underwhelming 2025 season. In addition to missing the first three games of the year due to a suspension, he turned in the worst statistics of his career as he caught just 42 passes for 610 yards and three touchdowns across 14 games. It was the first time in Addison's three-year career that he ranked lower than WR23 in PPR leagues. The frustrating 2025 season has prompted some managers to explore trading Addison in dynasty leagues. While we're not overly optimistic about a quarterback room featuring J.J. McCarthy and Kyler Murray, we do expect to see more consistent, quality quarterback reps from McCarthy and Murray than what we saw from Carson Wentz and Max Brosmer last year. Video from voluntary workouts shows that Murray, the projected starter, has quickly built a rapport with Addison, so perhaps that's a reason for optimism. Jefferson is still the alpha receiver here, but the 2023 and 2024 seasons showed that Jefferson and Addison can co-exist on the fantasy radar. Addison ranks as the WR30 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings, and he has sneaky value as a potential buy-low candidate in trades ahead of the 2026 season.

Matthew Golden a Prime Dynasty Buy-Low Candidate Heading into 2026

Sunday, May 3, 11:28 AM

A first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden failed to establish a consistent role in his team's offense as a rookie. Across 14 games, the 22-year-old recorded 29 receptions for 361 yards and zero touchdowns on 44 targets. Despite the underwhelming production, there's reason for dynasty managers to be optimistic about Golden heading into 2026. The Packers let wide receiver Romeo Doubs walk in free agency and traded away wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks to the Philadelphia Eagles. Green Bay still has a pair of talented wideouts ahead of Golden on the depth chart in Christian Watson and Jayden Reed. Still, Golden should have an opportunity to step into a far more prominent role in the Packers' passing game. In dynasty formats, managers may want to seek out buy-low opportunities on Golden ahead of 2026.
