Tee Higgins an Intriguing Dynasty Trade Target with QB Healthy?

Tuesday, April 7, 9:49 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins continues to trend up across fantasy football. He posted a career-best WR15 finish in 2025, catching 59 passes for 846 yards and 11 touchdowns. The reception and yardage totals weren't amazing, but his tendency to find the end zone allowed him to solidify himself as a high-end WR1 on a consistent basis. Higgins had such a productive season despite playing without quarterback Joe Burrow for more than half of his games. As Burrow missed more time due to injury, Higgins was forced to catch passes from a combination of Jake Browning and Joe Flacco. It wasn't the greatest quarterback play, but the 27-year-old still contributed, oftentimes bailing out his quarterbacks with spectacular catches down the field. Higgins has proven capable of handling a more versatile route tree, and we're intrigued about his ability to continue posting double-digit targets while seeing a bump in catches and yards with Burrow fully healthy. Given that Higgins has top-12 upside going forward, he's an intriguing offseason trade target in dynasty leagues.

DeVonta Smith News

Eagles Think DeVonta Smith Could be an Elite WR1

Tuesday, April 14, 9:37 AM

Some in the Philadelphia Eagles' organization think that if wide receiver A.J. Brown were no longer on the team, that DeVonta Smith "can have a similar jump in production" that Jaxon Smith-Njigba had in Seattle with the Seahawks when DK Metcalf was traded, according to Jimmy Kempski of Philly Voice. Kempski also adds that if Brown is traded, Smith will "immediately become the focal point of the passing offense." He has topped 1,000 yards in three of his four NFL seasons while also catching the "dagger" in the team's second franchise Super Bowl victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. "He is wired for this opportunity," Kempski believes. In addition to his Super Bowl ring, Smith won the Heisman Trophy in college and two national championships with Alabama. The 27-year-old former 10th overall pick in 2021 had 77 catches for 1,008 yards and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season games in 2025, with Kempski saying he was "pretty clearly" a better player than Brown. All signs are pointing to Brown getting traded after June 1, which would give Smith a huge fantasy boost heading into next season.
