Keenan Allen News

Keenan Allen Remains a Free Agent in Early April

Saturday, April 4, 6:36 PM

Veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen remains a free agent as we turn the calendar to April. The 33-year-old has spent 13 seasons in the NFL, including a dozen with the Los Angeles Chargers. He essentially shared No. 1 receiver duties with Ladd McConkey last year and ultimately led the team with 81 catches. He also tallied 777 receiving yards and four touchdowns, ranking as the overall WR29 in PPR leagues. Allen has previously said he only wants to play in Los Angeles, but his stance may have changed this deep into free agency. If he's open to playing elsewhere, several NFL media personalities have identified the Las Vegas Raiders as a potential landing spot. Vegas currently doesn't have an established No. 1 receiver, and Allen could be a great veteran target for rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza, the projected first overall pick. Allen doesn't have much value in dynasty trades, so he's purely a hold for now. Depending on the landing spot, he could be an intriguing buy-low receiver with short-term value.

Justin Jefferson News

Justin Jefferson Poised to Re-Emerge as an Elite Dynasty Wide Receiver in 2026

Wednesday, April 1, 7:58 AM

Since entering the league in 2020, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson has established himself as one of the truly elite players in the NFL at his position. However, the 26-year-old battled through a down year by his own lofty standards in 2025, recording 84 receptions for 1,048 yards and just two touchdowns on 141 targets across 17 games. Most of Jefferson's struggles can be chalked up to poor quarterback play in Minnesota, as the team spent most of the year with J.J. McCarthy and Carson Wentz as its primary signal-callers. While McCarthy could still be in the mix in 2026, the Vikings signed former Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray over the offseason. Murray has had his own issues in recent years, but he still brings a much higher level of baseline production and should at least stabilize the Minnesota passing game. As long as Jefferson stays healthy, he should re-emerge as a clear fantasy WR1 in 2026 and beyond. In dynasty formats, now may be the only chance for managers to try and buy low on the four-time All-Pro and 2022 Offensive Player of the Year.
