Troy Franklin News
Tuesday, March 17, 4:48 PM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin finished his second season behind only Courtland Sutton in terms of team targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns, though he spent the final stretch of the season in a competition with rookie Pat Bryant for playing time and opportunities. With most of the raw statistics suggesting Bryant had overtaken him on the pecking order by the time the playoffs arrived, he was already in for a fight come the 2026 season. With the Broncos' addition of Jaylen Waddle via trade, Franklin could now see himself relegated to more of a situational role. At best, he will be competing with Bryant and Marvin Mims Jr., both capable downfield threats, for the primary work in three-receiver sets.

Isaiah Bond News
Wednesday, March 18, 3:22 PM
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond should be a top-three wideout for the team as he heads into his second year in the NFL, behind Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman. The 22-year-old pass-catcher from the University of Texas averaged a healthy 18.8 yards per catch in his first 16 NFL games (two starts) in 2025, although he finished with only 18 catches for 338 yards on 44 targets. Bond displayed his big-play abilities, primarily late in the year after fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders was named the starter under center. He has some intriguing long-term fantasy upside because of his big-play ability, but he'll probably go undrafted in 12-team fantasy leagues this fall as the Browns continue to rebuild their offense, which finished 2025 with the second-fewest points per game (16.4), ahead of only the Las Vegas Raiders. Bond averaged just 1.1 catches per game last year, so that number will need to come up for fantasy managers in shallow redraft leagues to consider him off the waiver wire in 2026.
