Parker Washington News
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.

Luther Burden III News
Tuesday, April 28, 8:37 AM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III got off to a slow start to his rookie season in 2025, recording just 13 catches in his first seven NFL games. However, the 22-year-old closed the year on a tear, hauling in 21 receptions for 324 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets over his final four contests. This offseason, the Bears have added veteran wide receiver Kalif Raymond in free agency and LSU wideout Zavion Thomas with a third-round pick in the 2026 Draft. However, Chicago also traded away veteran wideout DJ Moore. All in all, Burden III looks to be in a prime position to enter 2026 as the Bears' WR2 alongside Rome Odunze. Burden III has proven to be a big-play threat with the ball in his hands, and he has the benefit of playing in a Chicago offense that should only be ascending with the promising quarterback/play-caller combination of Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson in place for the long haul. In dynasty formats, Burden III looks like a potential breakout candidate heading into 2026.
