Rome Odunze News
Monday, May 4, 5:14 AM
Throughout his first two years in the league, Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze has shown moments that justify his selection as the ninth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, but inconsistency and a loaded depth chart have hurt his placement in dynasty rankings. By the end of the 2025 season, four Bears players were reliably earning targets, but with Chicago trading away veteran DJ Moore, the 2026 passing offense is expected to be condensed through Odunze and second-year players Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland. Odunze missed five games but led all Bears pass catchers with 10.7 fantasy points per game despite seeing the most off-target throws on the team. When things are clicking between Odunze and Caleb Williams, as they were through the first four weeks of the season, the 6'3", 214-pound receiver can be a game-changer. With Williams expected to take another step forward in Ben Johnson's offense, Odunze, currently RotoBaller's dynasty WR23, could see his stock rise significantly.

Xavier Legette News
Monday, May 4, 10:08 AM
A first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette has struggled to live up to his draft status through the first two years of his professional career. Across 15 games in 2025, the 25-year-old recorded 35 receptions for 363 yards and three touchdowns on 64 targets. Legette also lost playing time down the stretch of the season, lining up for 55% or fewer of his team's offensive snaps in their final three contests. While the Panthers don't have an overwhelming depth of talent in their wide receiver room, Legette enters 2026 behind both Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker on the pecking order for targets. Carolina also used a third-round pick on University of Tennessee wide receiver Chris Brazzell II in the 2026 NFL Draft, who could put pressure on Legette for the Panthers WR3 role. In dynasty formats, Legette's value is at an all-time low heading into his third NFL season.
