Joshua Palmer News
Sunday, August 23, 11:55 AM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer looks a lot different now that last year's knee and ankle problems are behind him. Palmer managed only 22 catches for 303 yards in 12 games during his first season in Buffalo, then missed the playoffs after never really getting healthy again. This summer has gone much better. He caught two deep balls from Josh Allen on August 11, made a tough back-shoulder grab during the August 18 open practice and stayed hot against Cleveland two days later. Palmer came down with a covered touchdown in the red zone during the joint practice and connected with Allen again in seven-on-seven work. Buffalo has said his camp has put him in good position to earn a top-three receiver role, though there is still competition for those snaps. Palmer hasn't won anything yet. He has at least looked like the healthy downfield threat the Bills thought they were getting a year ago. RotoBaller has him 258th overall in PPR, which leaves him firmly in late-round territory if he carries this momentum into September.

Devontez Walker News
Tuesday, June 23, 10:43 AM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devontez Walker was a standout wideout this spring for the Ravens, continually stretching the field, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. Walker, who was drafted in the fourth round in 2024 out of the University of North Carolina, has pressure on him this year after the Ravens drafted Ja'Kobi Lane in the third round and Elijah Sarratt in the fourth round in April. Walker is competing for the WR3 role behind Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman in 2026, and so far, he has made the most of his limited opportunities during his first two seasons in the league, scoring four touchdowns on his seven career catches. The 25-year-old pass-catcher only caught six of eight targets for 136 yards and three touchdowns in 12 games (three starts) for the Ravens last year. There is an opportunity for Walker in the Ravens' new offense in 2026, but he can be ignored in 12-team fantasy leagues to begin the year.
