Nico Collins News

Is Nico Collins the Most Underrated Dynasty WR1?

Monday, June 15, 5:25 AM

Since a third-year breakout in 2023, Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has topped 1,000 receiving yards and six touchdowns in each of the past three seasons while twice finishing as a top-five graded receiver by PFF, and only dropping as low as number eight in 2025. As the unquestioned focal point of opposing defenses, Collins has finished as the WR9 in each of his last two full seasons, and with reinforcements coming to the Texans' offense in 2026, his game could take yet another step up. After finishing with one of the least efficient running games in the league, Houston traded for David Montgomery, and with further development expected from second-year wideouts Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, and the potential return of Tank Dell from a devastating 2024 knee injury, Collins could face significantly lower rates of double teams moving forward. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR10, the 27-year-old still has several years of prime play left after a slow start to his NFL career.

Carnell Tate News

How High is Carnell Tate's Dynasty Upside?

Friday, June 12, 6:10 AM

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Carnell Tate is entering his first NFL season with plenty of hype after being selected with the fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Tate was one of the better big-play threats in college football last season, recording 51 catches for 875 yards and nine touchdowns across 11 games at Ohio State. In Tennessee, he should have an opportunity to immediately emerge as the team's number one wide receiver on the outside. While the Titans have a pair of solid veteran wideouts in Wan'Dale Robinson and Calvin Ridley and some intriguing youngsters in Chimere Dike and Elic Ayomanor, Tate is clearly the highest-upside pass-catcher on the roster. Tennessee's overall offensive environment remains an open question, as Tate's fantasy value is tied to the development of Titans quarterback Cameron Ward. Still, Tate landed in an ideal spot for immediate production in Tennessee and enters 2026 as RotoBaller's dynasty WR14.
