Marvin Harrison Jr. News
Friday, June 26, 12:23 PM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. struggled with both injuries and inconsistency in 2025, finishing the year with just 41 receptions for 608 yards and four touchdowns on 73 targets across 12 games. The 23-year-old has flashed upside as a ball-winner and a red zone threat, but he's largely failed to live up to the prospect hype that led to him being the fourth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Entering 2026, Harrison Jr. is definitely behind star Cardinals tight end Trey McBride on the team's target pecking order and may even have slipped behind fellow wideout Michael Wilson. However, Harrison Jr. will have a chance to work with a new coaching staff this season, which could be the fresh start he needs. Harrison Jr. is reportedly still recovering from the myriad injury issues that forced him to miss five games last season, but he should be ready to go for the start of 2026. Given that he's fallen all the way down the low-end WR3 range by redraft ADP, Harrison Jr. may be an ideal buy-low candidate for fantasy managers.

Ladd McConkey News
Sunday, July 12, 10:11 AM
The Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey did not come close to matching his rookie breakout last season, but the path back to a bigger year is still there. He finished 2025 with 66 catches for 789 yards and six touchdowns after going 82-1,149-7 as a rookie. Even with the drop, McConkey led the Chargers in receiving yards while sharing work with Keenan Allen, Quentin Johnston, Oronde Gadsden II, and Tre' Harris. Allen remains unsigned, and that matters after he paced the team with 81 receptions. Johnston and Gadsden are not going away, but McConkey should have a better shot to sit at the front of the target line if Allen does not return. Mike McDaniel's arrival only adds to the appeal. McConkey has already piled up 799 yards after the catch through two seasons, and his quickness should play well in an offense built around motion and easy touches. The hamstring strain needs to be checked once camp begins, though he expected to be ready. At WR20 in RotoBaller's rankings, McConkey is priced like a WR2 with room to climb.
