Mike Evans News
Tuesday, June 9, 5:14 AM
Playing for his first new team since the Buccaneers selected him in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans has been impressing his new teammates, with All-Pro tight end George Kittle recently telling reporters he brings a "new dimension" to the offense, particularly in the red zone. Evans has been complimentary of both his new system and quarterback, praising head coach and playcaller Kyle Shanahan for putting him in good opportunities against one-on-one coverage and noting that fifth-year professional Brock Purdy was one of the big reasons he came to San Francisco. The 49ers have deployed 21-personnel at the league's highest rate in each of the past two seasons, and with defenses needing to account for a fullback with an extra body near the box, Evans could see one of the highest rates of man coverage in his career, and if he can translate that into double-digit touchdown receptions, a mark he's cleared in four of the last six seasons, he'll prove to be a steal at RotoBaller's WR26.

Puka Nacua News
Saturday, May 30, 5:26 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua has had one of the most dominant starts to a career in NFL history. Only Justin Jefferson and Odell Beckham Jr. have topped his 95.3 receiving yards per game through the first three seasons in the league, with fourth-place Anquan Boldin more than 10 yards per game behind. Playing in 16 games in 2025, Nacua finished as the WR1 in half-PPR formats. His physical play style will always put him at risk of missing time, but when on the field, his ceiling is as high as any player in the league. At 25 years old, he is RotoBaller's dynasty WR3 as he enters the final season of his rookie contract. With reigning MVP Matthew Stafford committed to at least two more years with the team, an extension signed by Nacua could be the exact catalyst needed to push him into the top spot, but regardless of where he stands in the rankings, the future is bright for one of the NFL's best young players.
