Marvin Mims Jr. News
Sunday, May 3, 11:59 AM
After his encouraging close to the 2024 season, Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. was one of the buzzier names in fantasy circles entering 2025. However, the 24-year-old remained siloed to a limited role in his team's offense, recording just 37 receptions for 322 yards and one touchdown on 51 targets across 15 games. Heading into 2026, Mims Jr. now appears to be buried on the Broncos wide receiver depth chart. Denver acquired star wideout Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins early in the offseason, adding to a deep group of wideouts that also includes Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, and Pat Bryant. While Mims Jr.'s spot on the Broncos roster is likely safe due to his ability to contribute as a returner and a big-play gadget piece, his path to fantasy relevance may require a change in scenery. In dynasty formats, Mims Jr.'s stock is fading entering 2026.

Luther Burden III News
Tuesday, April 28, 8:37 AM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III got off to a slow start to his rookie season in 2025, recording just 13 catches in his first seven NFL games. However, the 22-year-old closed the year on a tear, hauling in 21 receptions for 324 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets over his final four contests. This offseason, the Bears have added veteran wide receiver Kalif Raymond in free agency and LSU wideout Zavion Thomas with a third-round pick in the 2026 Draft. However, Chicago also traded away veteran wideout DJ Moore. All in all, Burden III looks to be in a prime position to enter 2026 as the Bears' WR2 alongside Rome Odunze. Burden III has proven to be a big-play threat with the ball in his hands, and he has the benefit of playing in a Chicago offense that should only be ascending with the promising quarterback/play-caller combination of Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson in place for the long haul. In dynasty formats, Burden III looks like a potential breakout candidate heading into 2026.
