Mack Hollins News
Thursday, July 23, 5:36 AM
New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins has a special relationship with his current offensive coordinator, as the two most productive seasons of his career have come with Josh McDaniels calling plays. Hollins caught a career-high 57 passes for 690 yards in 2022 with the Las Vegas Raiders, and added another 46 grabs for 550 yards in last season's reunion in New England. While his physicality and knack for coming up big in the clutch have made him a vital piece of McDaniels' offenses, even at his best, he has rarely been a reliable fantasy contributor, and with the Patriots receiver room seeing a massive influx of talent ahead of 2026, he's unlikely to hold onto the role that saw him lead all New England receivers in snaps per game a season ago. An important role player and one of the bigger personalities in the league, Hollins is unlikely to factor into many weekly fantasy decisions in his tenth year in the league, and he is RotoBaller's WR92.

Dontayvion Wicks News
Sunday, July 12, 10:43 AM
The Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks is coming off a quiet year, but his move to Philadelphia gives him another chance to matter in fantasy. He finished 2025 with 30 catches for 332 yards and two touchdowns, both of which came in a six-catch, 94-yard game against Detroit. The Eagles still saw enough to trade a 2026 fifth-round pick and a 2027 sixth-rounder for him, then extended him through 2027. There is room for someone to emerge after A.J. Brown was dealt to New England, and Wicks already has some familiarity with new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion from Green Bay. The opportunity is real. So is the competition. DeVonta Smith sits at the top of the depth chart, while rookie Makai Lemon, Hollywood Brown, and Elijah Moore will all be in the mix. Wicks enters camp with a chance to win a starting job, but nothing beyond Smith looks settled yet. Ranked WR84 by RotoBaller, he makes more sense as a deep-league stash than a standard-league sleeper until the rotation starts to take shape.
