Malik Washington Carries Dynasty Buy-Low Appeal Entering 2026

Tuesday, June 9, 8:30 AM

Across 17 games (six starts) in 2025, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington recorded 46 receptions for 317 yards and three touchdowns on 65 targets. The 25-year-old also rushed for 110 yards and a score on 17 carries, highlighting his ability to create plays when he gets his hand on the ball. Washington's path to playing time in Miami last season opened up after an early-season injury to veteran wideout Tyreek Hill, and he could be in an even better position for a significant role in 2026 following the team's offseason trade of wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos. Washington averaged a miserable 4.9 yards per target in 2025, so his fantasy viability relies on either a high-volume role or a dramatic increase in efficiency. He may not offer tremendous dynasty upside, but the clear opportunity available to Washington in Miami makes him an intriguing buy-low candidate ahead of 2026.

Elic Ayomanor News

Is Elic Ayomanor Still Worthy of a Dynasty Roster Spot?

Friday, June 5, 12:50 PM

A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor hauled in 41 catches for 515 yards and five touchdowns on 89 targets across 16 games as a rookie. Particularly with veteran Titans wideout Calvin Ridley limited to just seven games played due to injury, Ayomanor saw extended playing time in Tennessee. However, his place on the depth chart is far less certain entering 2026. The Titans signed wideout Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency, drafted Ohio State wide receiver Carnell Tate fourth overall in the 2026 NFL Draft, and re-worked Ridley's contract to keep him around for 2026. Ayomanor may even be behind fellow 2025 fourth-rounder Chimere Dike, who impressed with his versatility as a rookie. As a big-bodied ball-winner on the outside, Ayomanor retains some long-term upside. However, his dynasty stock has fallen considerably in the wake of Tennessee's offseason.
