Michael Pittman Jr. News
Monday, March 30, 5:49 AM
Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. finished the 2025 season valued as a low-end WR3 in consensus dynasty rankings, but since the offseason trade that moved him from Indianapolis to Pittsburgh, he has fallen to the low WR4 range. Pittman will be viewed by most as the clear second option behind D.K. Metcalf in a Steelers offense whose current quarterback situation would have to be graded as incomplete, so the dip is understandable, but he will still play the entirety of the 2026 season before turning 30, and he has finished as the WR23 or better in four of the past five seasons. He has become a go-to option for a revolving door of Colts quarterbacks by being a big-bodied target who runs precise routes and is rarely out of place against zone coverage. Whether his next signal caller is an unproven first-round rookie or a surly veteran who expects things to be done in a very particular way, nothing about Pittman's game suggests he will not continue to be a reliable target-earner.

Marvin Mims Jr. News
Tuesday, March 24, 1:58 PM
There is a new pecking order among Denver Broncos wide receivers after the team acquired Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins last week for three draft picks. Waddle could end up being the Broncos' WR1, ahead of Courtland Sutton, and his presence will definitely make playing time and targets hard to come by for Marvin Mims Jr. The Athletic's Nick Kosmider writes that the Broncos "aren't in any hurry to make a trade to thin the room," though, which includes Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant, and Mims. Injuries thinned the team's WR room late last year, so they "want to be more equipped for those potential setbacks." Although Waddle and Mims may have similar skill sets and roles on offense, Mims' ability to run the football out of the backfield, be a Pro Bowl return man on special teams, and operate as a big-play threat on offense "makes him a different weapon" than Waddle. Teams could be calling about a player like Mims, but Kosmider doesn't think a team with Super Bowl aspirations will pull the trigger. In dynasty and redraft leagues, Mims' stock will take a notable hit if he stays in Denver, however.
