Rashod Bateman a Cut Candidate in All Dynasty Leagues?

Thursday, April 9, 6:52 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has been extremely underwhelming in fantasy football throughout his five-year career. Despite having high draft capital as a former first-round pick, Bateman has never finished higher than WR40 in fantasy football. He has finished as WR69 or worse in four of his five pro seasons. Most recently, in 2025, Bateman was held to just 19 catches, 224 yards, and two touchdowns. Sure, he missed four games due to injury, but the per-game averages are still putrid. Plus, fantasy managers don't want receivers who struggle to produce and can't stay healthy. The only good news about Bateman's situation is that the Ravens made a coaching change this offseason, replacing John Harbaugh with Jesse Minter. Still, there's not enough optimism behind Minter to justify getting back on board the Bateman hype train. After five years of disappointment, managers can drop Bateman in all dynasty leagues.

Cedric Tillman Nearing Cut Candidacy in Dynasty Leagues

Friday, April 10, 5:24 AM

After a disappointing rookie season in 2023, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman briefly flashed week-winning potential during a mid-season stretch of his sophomore campaign before a concussion ended his season. He started 2025 strong with touchdowns in each of his first two games, but he quickly faded into fantasy obscurity, failing to find the end zone again for the rest of the year and finishing his third season with only 270 yards on 21 catches. Already tied to a sub-optimal quarterback situation and having already failed to stand out amid one of the league's weakest receiver rooms, Tillman's outlook would already look bleak enough without the Browns being linked to the top receivers in the upcoming rookie class. With the target pecking order behind tight end Harold Fannin Jr. so unsorted, dynasty managers who can afford to keep Tillman rostered into the season should do so until his usage is revealed. However, should he continue on his career-long 4.0 fantasy points per game pace, he will no longer need to be treated as a hold.
