Ted Hurst News
Friday, June 26, 12:06 PM
After recording 71 catches for 1,004 yards and six touchdowns across 12 games at Georgia State in 2025, wide receiver Ted Hurst was selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Hurst may not be expected to contribute right away in a Tampa Bay passing game that already features a deep group of wide receivers in Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin Jr., Jalen McMillan, and Tez Johnson. Still, Hurst profiles as a true outside X receiver, which may make him the most logical long-term replacement for former Bucs wideout Mike Evans, who departed the team in free agency. Godwin Jr. and McMillan both battled significant injury issues in 2025, which could be another route for Hurst to find his way onto the field. Dynasty managers should not expect immediate production from Hurst, but he profiles as a worthy stash candidate for rebuilding teams.

Skyler Bell News
Saturday, June 27, 11:37 AM
After recording 101 catches for 1,278 yards and 13 touchdowns across 13 games in his final collegiate season at UConn, wide receiver Skyler Bell was selected in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills. Entering his rookie season, Bell will be part of a crowded wide receiver room in Buffalo and is not guaranteed to emerge as a regular contributor. However, outside of veteran DJ Moore and steady slot wideout Khalil Shakir, the Bills do not have any wideouts who are definitively ahead of Bell on the depth chart. With a strong showing in training camp and the preseason, Bell could establish himself as a favorite target of star Bills quarterback Josh Allen. As the 83rd wide receiver off the board by ADP, Bell is a sneaky sleeper for redraft fantasy managers to target.
