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.

Tre Tucker News
Friday, May 1, 5:53 AM
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker led the team in 2025 with 90 targets and 696 receiving yards. Of course, All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers was slowed by injury in the first week of the season, ultimately missing five games with a PCL sprain and bone bruise. Running back Ashton Jeanty also caught 55 passes as a rookie and could see a heavier workload in year two, but with the Raiders making few additions to the receiver room through either free agency or the draft, the spot of a third target earner is still very much up for grabs in Klint Kubiak's offense. Vegas signed Jalen Nailor to a three-year, $35 million deal and selected Malik Benson in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, adding to a room of Tucker and 2025 second and fourth-round picks, Jack Bech and D'onte Thornton Jr. While Tucker should earn starters reps again in 2026, his upside could be capped by a 37-year-old Kirk Cousins and a rookie Fernando Mendoza, and with only one year remaining on his rookie contract, the long-term plays in Vegas are more likely Nailor and Bech, before even addressing the loaded 2027 draft class. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR92, Tucker is not going to draw many suitors on the open trade market, but could be a useful throw-in as part of a larger deal.
