Rashod Bateman Droppable in Many Dynasty Leagues

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.

Romeo Doubs News

Romeo Doubs Offers Dynasty Upside Even as the No. 2 Receiver

Friday, May 29, 7:52 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Romeo Doubs could face some competition soon. The Patriots' plan to acquire A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles is the worst-kept secret in football, and a deal is expected to come together in the month of June. When that happens, Doubs' role will shrink, but we still expect him to remain a fantasy-relevant option for years to come. Drake Maye took a huge step in Year 2, but he was missing a true No. 2 receiver. Doubs will fill that role behind Brown, and the Patriots' offense is successful enough to support two fantasy-relevant wide receivers. Doubs may not be Maye's first read all the time, but he'll also benefit from Brown pulling away opposing teams' No. 1 cornerbacks. All in all, we're not too worried about the Brown trade, and we still think that Doubs, who is signed through 2029, can be a top-36 fantasy receiver for several years to come. At the moment, he ranks as the WR58 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings.
