Rashod Bateman News
Monday, May 4, 8:07 AM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has been consistently underwhelming throughout his NFL career, and he can be dropped in many dynasty fantasy football leagues. Although he's a former first-round pick, Bateman has never finished higher than WR40 in PPR leagues. He has finished lower than WR65 in four of his five pro seasons. Most recently, in 2025, Bateman was held to just 19 catches, 224 yards, and two touchdowns. While the Ravens do want to throw the ball more, Lamar Jackson is expected to target plenty of other receivers, such as Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, and even rookie Ja'Kobi Lane. Due to his lack of productivity over the years, Bateman has fallen down the pecking order and seems to have lost the trust of his quarterback. Furthermore, he could be fighting for a roster spot since the Ravens have a new head coach (Jesse Minter) and offensive coordinator (Declan Doyle). He can be dropped in most dynasty leagues.

Kyle Williams News
Thursday, April 30, 8:08 AM
A third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams struggled to carve out a consistent role in his team's offense as a rookie. Across 17 games, the 23-year-old recorded just 10 receptions for 209 yards and three touchdowns on 21 targets. Heading into 2026, Williams still projects to be behind Romeo Doubs, Mack Hollins, and Kayshon Boutte on the Patriots' wide receiver depth chart. Boutte's name has come up in trade rumors, which could clear a path for Williams to step in as New England's primary deep-ball threat. However, the Patriots are also widely considered the favorites to land current Philadelphia Eagles superstar wideout A.J. Brown. If Brown does eventually end up in New England, it's difficult to imagine a world where Williams sees a significant playing time increase in his second season. Williams retains some dynasty upside due to his big-play ability, but his overall value is limited by his uncertain role with the Patriots.
