Is Puka Nacua the WR1 in Dynasty Leagues?

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.

Tetairoa McMillan News

Tetairoa McMillan Working With the Training Staff on Tuesday

Tuesday, May 26, 1:41 PM

Carolina Panthers second-year wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan (undisclosed) is not practicing with the rest of the team during OTA practice on Tuesday and is working with the training staff, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. The Panthers haven't announced a specific injury for McMillan, but it's expected to be a minor ailment as the club begins their OTAs this week. The 23-year-old impressed in his first year in the NFL in 2025 after Carolina selected him with the eighth overall pick out of the University of Arizona. McMillan quickly developed a strong relationship with quarterback Bryce Young and was his go-to target all year, leading the team with 70 receptions, 1,014 yards, and seven touchdowns on 122 targets across 17 regular-season starts. He finished as the WR15 in half-PPR scoring and will be a high-end WR2 target in fantasy drafts this fall with upside to become a true WR1 in his sophomore season for the Panthers. The arrow is pointing directly up after McMillan was named the NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2025.
