Juwan Johnson an Affordable Trade Target for Contending Dynasty Managers

Sunday, June 14, 5:25 AM

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson topped double-digit fantasy points seven times in 2025 in half-PPR formats, and in the second season of the Kellen Moore and Tyler Shough era, the Saints are in the conversation of the most improved offenses heading into 2026. New Orleans paid up to acquire running back Travis Etienne Jr. in free agency and spent the eighth overall pick in the NFL Draft on Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson. While both are more than capable of siphoning targets from Johnson, the trade-off could be more sustained drives and scoring opportunities for one of the league's fastest-paced offenses, which should only grow more efficient with another year of development. While the end result could be something close to a wash for the 29-year-old Johnson, the seventh-year veteran heads into 2026 as RotoBaller's dynasty TE26, fresh on the heels of a TE10 finish, making him an undervalued trade target with weekly starting potential.

Harold Fannin Jr.'s Injury Not Considered to be Serious

Tuesday, June 23, 9:48 AM

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr.'s undisclosed injury this offseason doesn't appear to be very serious, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Fannin was seen walking without a limp during offseason workouts recently. The 21-year-old second-year tight end sat out of offseason practice in May and June with his undisclosed injury, but the Browns appear to be playing it safe with their leading pass-catcher from a year ago. After being selected with the 67th overall pick in the third round in 2025 out of Bowling Green, Fannin impressed with 72 receptions on 107 targets for a team-high 731 yards and six touchdowns in 16 games (13 starts). Fannin's participation level for the start of training camp at the end of July will be worth watching, but currently, it doesn't seem like his injury will keep him from being ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season. Even though Cleveland's QB situation is not ideal, Fannin will enter Year 2 in the NFL as a low-end TE1 in fantasy football drafts after his big rookie season.
