Michael Wilson News
Friday, June 26, 8:40 AM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson was one of the breakout success stories of the 2025 season, recording 78 receptions for 1,006 yards and seven touchdowns on 126 targets across 17 games. Wilson finished the season on a five-game touchdown-scoring streak, and he saw double-digit targets in five out of 12 games after veteran Jacoby Brissett took over as the Cardinals' starting quarterback. Brissett is back as Arizona's starter for 2026, which helps Wilson's outlook. However, Arizona has an ultra-high-volume target-earner in tight end Trey McBride and should get a healthier season out of wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. The Cardinals also averaged over 40 pass attempts per game with Brissett under center in 2025, which seems unlikely to continue under a new coaching staff in 2026. Dynasty managers should feel comfortable holding Wilson, but exploring sell-high opportunities for the 26-year-old could also prove fruitful.

Xavier Legette News
Friday, July 10, 6:27 AM
A first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette has widely provided uninspiring production through the first two years of his career. Across 15 games in 2025, the 25-year-old recorded 35 catches for 363 yards and three touchdowns on 64 targets. Entering 2026, Legette could still be in a position to play a starting role alongside top Panthers wideouts Tetairora McMillan and Jalen Coker. However, Carolina added some competition for Legette in the form of rookie wide receiver Chris Brazzell II, whom the team selected in the third round of the 2026 draft. Still, Legette's stock has fallen to the point where he will most likely go undrafted in most 12-team redraft leagues ahead of 2026. As a former first-rounder who still has a clear path to a starting role with his team, Legette could be a worthy low-cost flier for deep-league managers.
