Omar Cooper Jr. News
Thursday, September 10, 7:00 PM
22-year-old rookie out of Indiana, Omar Cooper Jr, wrapped up training camp on a high note, putting together crucial highlight plays and showing his yards-after-catch ability that made him a top prospect out of college and earned him the 30th overall draft pick by the New York Jets. Reports from camp were initially slow for Cooper as he was getting acclimated to the NFL. His situation is worth monitoring, as he has the high draft capital that makes him an interesting asset that should be taken seriously. Cooper posted 69 receptions, 937 receiving yards, and 13 touchdowns in his final season with Indiana and is currently listed as the Jets' third wide receiver, ahead of Tim Patrick and Arian Smith. RotoBaller ranks him as the WR88 for Week 1, making him more of a bench stash based on his potential upside.

Chris Bell News
Saturday, September 12, 4:22 AM
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chris Bell was named as one of the team's starting receivers in his NFL debut in Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders. An ACL tear ended his college career at Louisville and caused him to slide to the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Even though he missed most of his first training camp while rehabbing, he has made a splash right away with a quick acclimation to the Dolphins' offense. He only played one preseason game, but he was targeted five times in about 10 minutes of game action. In Week 1, Bell is RotoBaller's WR73, just behind teammates Caleb Douglas and Malik Washington. Bell could end up being the top fantasy receiver in Miami's offense at some point this season, and he has a huge opportunity ahead of him. He's extremely high risk for Week 1, but he's a rookie to monitor moving forward.
