Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. is aiming for another trip to the Pro Bowl. "When you're hitting a streak, why not keep it going," said Mims, referring to his two Pro Bowl selections in his first two years in the National Football League. "I'm excited." Without question, his contributions as a return specialist can't be denied. However, fantasy managers hope he'll make more noise for his accomplishments on the receiving end. The 23-year-old looked better in his sophomore campaign, finishing with 39 receptions for 503 yards and six touchdowns. The Broncos added J.K. Dobbins and Evan Engram this offseason, two players who will command attention from second-year signal-caller Bo Nix. Courtland Sutton is still on the roster and is coming off his first 1,000-yard receiving season since 2019. With that said, it's still reasonable to assume Mims could remain involved and improve even more this season, so he'll be worth considering in the later rounds of fantasy drafts.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze believes he's going to take a major step forward in his second professional season. Odunze had high expectations after being drafted as the No. 9 overall pick during last year's draft. He finished with 54 receptions, 734 yards, and three touchdowns across 17 games last season. To be fair, nothing seemed to go right for the Bears offense last season. They tried to get Odunze involved with over 100 targets, but the poor play of the offensive line made it difficult for them. Despite that, the Bears believe Odunze is a special player that can take a big leap this next season. Odunze said his goal is to get at least 1,000 receiving yards and double-digit touchdowns. The Bears have added talent on offense, so we'll see if that goal is achievable, but regardless fantasy managers should probably hold Odunze and see what happens.
