Parker Washington Still Undervalued Despite Proven Upside

Monday, May 4, 5:25 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington was perhaps the biggest key to unlocking former first overall pick Trevor Lawrence, and yet that isn't reflected in his current dynasty value. Lawrence was the fantasy QB1 over the final ten weeks of the season, coinciding with a Washington breakout stretch that saw the third-year receiver catch four of his career-high five touchdowns while averaging 12.6 Half-PPR points per game. The Jaguars boast one of the deepest groups of pass-catchers in the league, but with two-way player Travis Hunter in a category of his own, the majority of the passing offense is expected to run through Washington, Brian Thomas Jr., and Jakobi Meyers in 2026. Despite being five years younger than Meyers and topping Thomas in nearly every statistical category in 2025, Washington ranks well below both as RotoBaller's dynasty WR47. The last time the Jaguars took the field, in a Wild Card loss to the Bills, Washington led the team with 10 targets for seven receptions, 107 yards, and a touchdown, and with that sort of week-winning upside in his back pocket, he may be one of the most undervalued assets in the game.

Jayden Higgins News

How Much Growth Can be Expected of Jayden Higgins in Year 2?

Wednesday, May 6, 5:48 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins showed flashes as a second-round rookie in 2025, but his path to a Year 2 leap could come with struggles along the way. The biggest obstacle could be the quarterback play of C.J. Stroud, who has regressed each year since his historic rookie campaign in 2023. The Texans have invested heavily in the offensive line, which should have a ripple effect on Stroud and the offense as a whole, but Higgins will still need to carve out a meaningful role to find dynasty staying power. Higgins scored two touchdowns in the three games missed by two-time Pro Bowler Nico Collins, and with the two both profiling as prototypical X-receivers, Higgins may not always find the field in two-receiver sets. With fellow second-year Cyclone Jaylin Noel expected to inherit Christian Kirk's role out of the slot, Higgins could find himself in a rotation with Tank Dell, who is on track to return from the 2024 knee injury that cost him the entire 2025 season. Higgins has the traits to become a consistent fantasy producer, but dynasty managers may be underwhelmed by the opportunities he sees in his second season, and at RotoBaller's WR44, he merely remains a hold until he proves he can overcome the situation.
