"The Sky Is the Limit" for Rashid Shaheed

Sunday, August 23, 6:16 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed should be a major factor in the team's offense this season. Shaheed was traded from the New Orleans Saints to the Seahawks last season and was unproductive as a receiver. Across 12 games, including the postseason, he caught 18 of 36 targets for 266 yards and no touchdowns, averaging under three fantasy points per game. With a full offseason with quarterback Sam Darnold and the Seahawks offense, Shaheed should be able to contribute much more. Seahawks beat writer Justin Melo praised Shaheed, saying, "The sky is the limit for Shaheed in Brian Fleury's offense this season, and it's exciting to see him making plays at camp." Currently ranked WR56 in RotoBaller's positional rankings, Shaheed offers a ton of upside in the late rounds of fantasy drafts.

KC Concepcion Still a Redraft Target Despite Some Quarterback Concerns

Friday, August 28, 8:20 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver KC Concepcion has a very high ceiling in dynasty fantasy football leagues, but he also possesses legitimate redraft appeal for the 2026 season. A first-round pick out of Texas A&M, Concepcion put together a strong training camp and sat out Week 3 of the preseason, which suggests that he'll open the regular season as the No. 2 receiver on the Browns' depth chart behind Jerry Jeudy. With that being said, Jeudy struggled to the tune of 50 catches, 602 yards, and two touchdowns across 17 games last year, so Concepcion has a very real chance to lead the receiver room in all three categories. Even with Deshaun Watson (and perhaps Shedeur Sanders, eventually) installed as the starting quarterback, Concepcion should have the skill set to overcome subpar quarterback play and maintain a WR3/flex floor throughout his rookie season. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR47, and he currently has an ADP of 120.2. On average, he's the 50th wide receiver to come off the board in fantasy drafts, so he's a potential steal at his price tag if managers agree that he has top-36 value.
