Mack Hollins Faces a Steeper Climb for Targets

Sunday, August 23, 10:59 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins still has a role, but it is getting harder to see enough targets for him to matter in redraft. Hollins caught 46 passes for 550 yards and two touchdowns in 15 games last season, then New England added A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs to an already crowded room. Through the first 10 practices of camp, Brown, Doubs and DeMario Douglas were typically the three receivers around Drake Maye, with Hollins and Kayshon Boutte getting regular work with the second team. Hollins has still made plays. The Patriots have used his size and blocking in heavier personnel, and he has caught multiple camp touchdowns on delayed releases and boot concepts. That makes him useful to the offense without guaranteeing much fantasy volume. There are simply more receivers fighting for Maye's attention now than there were a year ago. RotoBaller ranks Hollins WR86 and 233rd overall in PPR. He can have a role on Sundays and still be difficult to trust in fantasy lineups.

Treylon Burks Working His Way Back into the Fantasy Conversation

Monday, August 24, 5:25 AM

Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks has had a career defined by injuries and disappointment, but a unique skill set and a solid first training camp in Washington have him well-positioned to earn a role in 2026. The arrival of four-time Pro Bowler Stefon Diggs in early August changed the landscape of the Commanders' receiver room, but Burks' blend of size and speed should allow him to earn a complementary role behind Diggs and top option Terry McLaurin. Still projected as part of a potential rotation with Luke McCaffrey, Jaylin Lane, and 2026 third-round pick Antonio Williams, he is unlikely to suddenly reemerge as a coveted fantasy asset, but in an offense expected to gel with better overall health in its first year under new offensive coordinator David Blough, Burks has the opportunity to work his way into the flex conversation in deeper leagues. A former first-round pick of the Tennessee Titans, Burks has yet to top the 444 receiving yards of his rookie season, but he is at least back on the edge of fantasy radars as RotoBaller's WR109.
