Mike Evans News
Tuesday, March 31, 6:02 AM
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans went through a massive change of scenery this offseason. After 12 years in Tampa Bay, the veteran pass-catcher inked a new contract with the 49ers, pairing him with talented quarterback Brock Purdy. While it's not necessarily a major quarterback upgrade or downgrade for Evans, the change of scenery could be valuable for his NFL career and fantasy outlook. His role was slipping a little in Tampa Bay as Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin Jr. took on larger roles. In San Francisco, Evans will be the clear No. 1 receiver, with Ricky Pearsall not serving as too much of a threat. Staying healthy will be the biggest key for Evans, who missed nine games last year and finally saw his streak of 11 consecutive 1,000-yard seasons come to an end. We would not be surprised to see Evans finish 2026 as a mid-to-high WR2, and he even has WR1 upside. Even at 32 years old, he's an intriguing buy-low candidate in dynasty leagues where his current manager is bothered by last year's injury issues.

A.J. Brown News
Monday, April 20, 5:11 AM
It remains an open secret that Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown is likely to be dealt after June 1, a date that needs to be cleared to provide Philadelphia with additional salary cap relief. According to NFL Insider Adam Schefter, the New England Patriots are still highly interested in acquiring the three-time Pro Bowler. Per Schefter, the teams are expected to resume conversations on or before June 1st, and league-wide belief is that a deal will get done. Brown turns 29 in June and is coming off the worst statistical season since his final, injury-shortened campaign with Tennessee, but even if on the decline, he would still provide a true dominator on the outside for New England and 2025 MVP candidate Drake Maye. How the two teams approach the receiver position in this week's NFL Draft could be a telling indicator of where talks currently stand.
