Travis Etienne Jr. News
Friday, March 27, 5:25 AM
New Orleans Saints running back Travis Etienne Jr. was one of the first names off the board when the legal tampering window opened ahead of the new league year. Now that the dust has settled on the early wave of free agency, his landing spot in the bayou looks to be one of the better fits from a fantasy perspective. In year one under head coach Kellen Moore, the Saints ran one of the fastest paces of play in the league, and their signing of former Bills guard David Edwards to a four-year, $61 million contract should help to bolster the interior of a line that ranked near the bottom of the league in run blocking. Etienne's own signing of a top-of-the-market four-year, $52 million deal also signals the Saints' intent to make him a true workhorse back. His 325 touches in 2023 mark a career-high by a wide margin and uncoincidentally resulted in a career-best RB3 finish in Half-PPR formats.

Jauan Jennings News
Sunday, April 5, 8:24 AM
NFL officials in Phoenix all believe that free-agent wide receiver Jauan Jennings is asking for too much money on the open market this offseason, according to Matt Barrows and Vic Tafur of The Athletic. "He's outplayed his talent," one head coach said. Jennings and the San Francisco 49ers couldn't work out a long-term deal last summer and instead worked out a one-year deal. The 28-year-old is by far the best remaining player on the free-agent market, but his financial demands might need to come down a bit for him to find a new home. Jennings, a former seventh-round pick in 2020 out of Tennessee, wasn't very involved in the Bay Area in his first three NFL seasons before breaking out in 2024 with a 77-975-6 line in 15 regular-season games. Jennings had a career-best nine touchdowns in 2025, but he also regressed elsewhere with just 55 catches for 643 yards in 15 regular-season starts. His 2024 campaign could easily end up being Jennings' high-water mark, but he could still have plenty of fantasy relevance as a chain-mover in 2026, depending on where he ends up.
