Julio Jones News
Friday, April 4, 7:32 PM
Former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones has officially announced his retirement. The Alabama product had an incredible run as a Falcon, with whom he spent nine seasons before serving three consecutive one-year stints with the Tennessee Titans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Philadelphia Eagles. Jones tallied 914 receptions, 13,703 yards, and 66 touchdowns in 166 career games. The 35-year-old is the author of the third-highest single-season receiving yardage total of all time and ranks No. 16 on the all-time list of most receiving yards in a career. Jones was a spectacle on the field, with a rare blend of size, speed, and physicality that sought to give any defensive back fits. The former sixth-overall pick of the 2011 draft holds an excellent case for becoming a member of the Hall of Fame.

Darius Slayton News
Wednesday, April 29, 5:39 AM
New York wide receiver Darius Slayton has become a bit of a forgotten man amidst a busy Giants' offseason, and that is reflected in his dynasty value, as he has fallen to RotoBaller's WR122. At times, out of necessity in 2025, Slayton operated as the team's primary boundary receiver, but he converted the opportunity into only 538 yards and one touchdown on 37 receptions. For reference, Malik Nabers finished the year with 18 catches, 271 yards, and two touchdowns after an early-season ACL tear limited him to parts of only four games. With Nabers expected back for the start of the 2026 season, he'll be looking to recreate his historic 2024 rookie season, in which he caught 109 of 165 targets. Wan'Dale Robinson, who led the team with 131 targets in 2025 before signing a four-year deal with the Titans, will see much of his vacated workload picked up by free agent acquisitions Isaiah Likely and Darnell Mooney, as well as the recently drafted Malachi Fields. With the Giants' depth chart suddenly crowded, Slayton is projected to settle back into a more natural complementary role, and dynasty managers who were unable to sell on the strength of his opportunistic workload are stuck holding a depreciating asset.
