Is Ricky Pearsall a Sneaky Sleeper for Redraft Leagues?

Tuesday, June 23, 8:29 AM

Two seasons into his NFL career, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall has had a difficult time staying on the field. A gunshot wound forced Pearsall to miss six games as a rookie in 2024, and a lingering knee injury forced him to miss eight games in 2025. Across the nine games he was able to suit up for last season, the 25-year-old recorded 36 catches for 528 yards and zero touchdowns on 53 targets. Entering 2026, Pearsall looks to be fully healthy and projects as the WR2 in San Francisco alongside veteran Mike Evans. 49ers tight end George Kittle (Achilles), running back Christian McCaffrey, and rookie wideout De'Zhaun Stribling all pose varying levels of threats to Pearsall's target volume. Still, it's difficult to judge anything Pearsall has done in the pros until he can string together a run of fully healthy games. His profile is risky, but Pearsall's current average draft position of WR48 may be undervaluing his upside.

KC Concepcion's Versatility Could Provide an Early Dynasty Floor Until the Ceiling Arrives

Saturday, June 6, 5:13 AM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver KC Concepcion is a versatile playmaker who has a chance to immediately command a team-leading target share in a Todd Monken offense that saw Zay Flowers finish as the fantasy WR7 in 2025. Concepcion played 69% of his collegiate snaps from the slot, but his lone season at Texas A&M showcased his ability to move across the formation, and in handling more than 65% of his snaps on the outside, he turned in his most productive season. Earning first-round capital, he is the most notable addition to a Browns offense that was led by rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. in almost all receiving categories in 2025. While the starting quarterback job in Cleveland is still being sorted, low expectations for the offense as a whole are the biggest, but most temporary knock on Concepcion's profile, and with the ability to become an early go-to for either Deshaun Watson or Shedeur Sanders, he could provide an instantly usable weekly floor even in a bottom-half offense. Concepcion is RotoBaller's rookie WR4 and dynasty WR32.
