Rhamondre Stevenson the RB1 in New England?

Saturday, March 7, 6:14 AM

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson had seven rushing touchdowns for the second straight season during the regular season and helped the team advance to the Super Bowl. However, the 28-year-old took a step back in 2025 with 603 rushing yards on a career-low 130 carries (4.6 yards per attempt) in 14 regular-season games. Rookie TreVeyon Henderson led New England's backfield with 911 rushing yards and nine TDs on 180 carries (5.1 yards per tote). The 28-year-old Stevenson was the Patriots' No. 1 back by default last year, but Henderson was more productive and almost certainly will have the opportunity to pass Stevenson on the RB depth chart in 2026. That will be especially true if Stevenson's ball-security issues resurface -- he lost two more fumbles last season. Stevenson might be more of a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in 2026 with less volume.

Trey McBride Profiles as the Top Tight End in Fantasy After Dominant 2025 Season

Wednesday, February 11, 6:13 AM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride earned first-team All-Pro honors after setting the all-time single-season reception record by a tight end in his banner 2025 season. Across 17 games, the 26-year-old recorded 126 catches for 1,239 yards and 11 touchdowns on 169 targets. McBride was the number one scoring tight end in fantasy football in 2025, and given his age, he projects to continue his dominance for at least the next few seasons. The Cardinals are reportedly looking to trade quarterback Kyler Murray this offseason, which means McBride could be facing another season of uncertainty under center in Arizona. However, McBride proved he could be highly productive even with career backup Jacoby Brissett throwing him passes this past season. Heading into 2026, McBride looks like the clear fantasy TE1 in both redraft and dynasty formats.
