Justin Jefferson News
Sunday, May 31, 5:13 AM
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson averaged more than 6.4 catches and 96.5 yards per game through his first five seasons in the league, but those numbers took a seismic hit in 2025. His 84 receptions were his fewest in any full season, while his 1,048 receiving yards and two touchdowns also marked career lows. With some of the league's worst quarterback play affecting all of Minnesota's pass catchers, dynasty managers who bought the dip on Jefferson could be rewarded as early as 2026. The Vikings signed former first overall pick Kyler Murray to a one-year deal this offseason, and by all accounts, he has acclimated quickly to a new offense and has an early but notable edge over 2024 first-rounder J.J. McCarthy in Minnesota's quarterback competition. While Murray's history of supporting a number one receiver is not substantial, he did help DeAndre Hopkins finish as the WR7 in their first season together. With him already playing for his next contract, he would be wise to lean on one of the best receivers in the world. Yet to turn 27, Jefferson is RotoBaller's dynasty WR4, and while he can no longer be acquired on a discount, he's at least worth inquiring about while last season's disappointment is still fresh in the minds of some.

Drake London News
Tuesday, June 2, 5:31 PM
The Atlanta Falcons signed wide receiver Drake London to a four-year, $141 million extension on Tuesday that is worth up to $150 million and includes $100 million guaranteed, agent Andrew Kessler told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The deal makes London the third-highest-paid receiver in the NFL with the highest average per year in Falcons franchise history. The 24-year-old former eighth overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft out of USC has only one 1,000-yard season in his first four years in the league, but he has been extremely consistent, totaling 309 receptions (497 targets) for 3,961 yards (12.8 yards per catch) and 22 touchdowns in 62 games over his four seasons. London had a career-low 68 receptions in a career-low 12 games played in 2025, but he still managed 919 receiving yards and seven scores. He should still be viewed as a top-12 fantasy wideout as he heads into Year 5, but with quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Jr. (knee) competing for starting duties going into Week 1 this fall, there's a little more volatility in his 2026 profile.
