Roman Wilson News
Friday, June 19, 5:54 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson was expected to have a breakout campaign this past season. The assumption was that Wilson was going to get a ton of chances after George Pickens was dealt to the Dallas Cowboys. Instead, Wilson finished with 12 receptions for 166 receiving yards and two touchdowns in 13 games. It's not going to get easier for Wilson to find opportunities with Michael Pittman Jr. joining the offense this offseason. Also, the Steelers selected Germie Bernard in the second-round of this year's draft. Now, Wilson might fall to fourth or fifth on the depth chart after these moves this offseason. He's only 25 years old, but dynasty managers likely missed their chance to get value for him when he was hyped last year. Wilson will probably play a depth role going forward.

Barion Brown News
Saturday, April 25, 12:30 PM
The New Orleans Saints have selected LSU wide receiver prospect Barion Brown with the No. 190 overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Brown was a three-year contributor at Kentucky before transferring to LSU for his final collegiate season. Across 13 games in 2025, he caught 53 passes for 532 yards and one touchdown. He's not a major touchdown threat, but he can still be a dependable depth receiver for Tyler Shough in New Orleans' up-and-coming offense. This is the third receiver the Saints have drafted this year, following Jordyn Tyson and Bryce Lance. Although he's a talented player, Brown will be buried too low in the pecking order to justify pursuing him in fantasy leagues. He can be avoided in most fantasy drafts.
