Marvin Mims Jr. News
Saturday, March 7, 6:22 AM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. improved as a pass-catcher in his second NFL season in 2024, when he caught 39 of his 52 targets for 503 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. But the 23-year-old former second-rounder out of Oklahoma regressed in Year 3 in 2025, finishing with 37 catches on 51 targets for a career-low 322 yards and just one touchdown in 15 regular-season games. Mims did pace the Broncos' pass-catchers in their AFC Championship loss to the New England Patriots, but more often than not last year, he was the odd-man out in the passing attack behind Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, and rookie Pat Bryant. Even tight end Evan Engram finished with more yardage than Mims in 2025. Mims has big-play abilities and is a two-time Pro Bowler on special teams, but on offense, he's likely to be inconsistent again in 2026 with limited playing time.

Puka Nacua News
Tuesday, February 10, 9:22 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua finished as the WR1 in Half-PPR formats in 2025, and the 24-year-old wideout belongs in the conversation at the top of the position in dynasty startups. His 95.3 receiving yards per game since his record-breaking 2023 rookie campaign is the highest in NFL history, and with quarterback Matthew Stafford insinuating his return during NFL Honors, the Rams appear poised for another all-in title push in 2026. Nacua, Ja'Marr Chase, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba comprise the top tier at the position. While youth slightly favors Smith-Njigba, and long-term quarterback stability belongs to Chase, Nacua enters 2026 in the most favorable overall position and is the most likely to see his value rise throughout the season. While drafters can't go wrong with any of the three, Nacua makes sense at the top of the draft for those building both an instant contender or long-term juggernaut.
