Bijan Robinson  • RB  •  Falcons

Is Bijan Robinson the Number One Overall Player in Dynasty Formats?

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson was arguably the best running back in the NFL in 2025, recording a league-leading 2,298 yards from scrimmage and 11 touchdowns on 366 touches across 17 games. Robinson averaged a career-high 5.1 yards per carry while hauling in 79 receptions for 820 yards on 103 targets. Heading into 2026, Robinson could be in line for an even larger role in the Atlanta offense following the departure of former Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier in free agency. While Robinson was the clear lead back in Atlanta in 2025, Allgeier still collected 157 touches and scored eight rushing touchdowns. With Allgeier now out of the picture, Robinson could smash his previous career high for single-season touchdowns of 15. As he enters his age-24 season, Robinson profiles as the dynasty RB1 and has a good case to be valued as the number one overall player in both redraft and dynasty formats.

Woody Marks Should Have Plenty of Opportunities to Catch Passes

Although the Houston Texans acquired running back David Montgomery in an offseason trade with the Detroit Lions, second-year back Woody Marks should "stay fresh in a complementary role that should involve a lot of opportunities to catch passes out of the backfield," according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. As long as Montgomery stays healthy, Marks won't have an opportunity to take over a three-down role in Houston, but he could still be very valuable for fantasy managers in PPR leagues, and RotoBaller has Marks currently ranked as the No. 45 overall RB in half-PPR setups. The former fourth-rounder out of USC in 2025 was a prolific pass-catcher as a Trojan and during his time at Mississippi State. Marks finished his rookie campaign in the NFL with a team-high 703 rushing yards on 196 carries after taking over the starting gig from veteran Nick Chubb. The 25-year-old added 24 receptions on 36 targets for 208 yards and three scores through the air in 16 regular-season games (eight starts). In college, Marks had at least 47 catches in four of his five seasons.

Drew Allar Working as QB4 in First OTA Session

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Drew Allar (ankle) worked as the fourth QB on Monday in the team's first OTA session, behind Aaron Rodgers, Will Howard, and Mason Rudolph, according to ESPN's Brooke Pryor. Allar, who was the team's third-round pick in April's NFL draft, had surgery last November following a broken left ankle that ended his final season at Penn State in 2025. The 22-year-old has apparently fully recovered from his ankle injury. With Rodgers officially back in the Steel City for one more go-around in his 22nd NFL campaign, the 6-foot-5, 228-pound Allar will open his first year in the NFL buried on Pittsburgh's QB depth chart. New head coach Mike McCarthy is trying to build Allar's mechanics from the ground up after he played in a Nittany Lions system that wasn't tailored at all towards the next level. It's going to take some time for Allar in Pittsburgh, so anyone looking to draft him in dynasty/keeper leagues needs to be willing to play the long game.

Aaron Rodgers Reports to Steelers Facilities on Monday

After signing a one-year deal to return to the Pittsburgh Steelers over the weekend, veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers reported to the team's facilities on Monday morning, according to Brooke Pryor of ESPN. Rodgers was one of the first people in the building before 7 am. He will be on the practice field to start the week for the first OTA practice. The 42-year-old future Hall of Famer is back for his 22nd season in the NFL after throwing for 3,322 yards, 24 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 16 regular-season starts in 2025 in his first year in the Steel City. Rodgers led the team to a 10-6 record and into the playoffs, but they were embarrassed by a strong Houston Texans defense in the wild-card round of the postseason. After long-time head coach Mike Tomlin stepped away, Rodgers will reunite with Mike McCarthy, with whom he won a Super Bowl in Green Bay. The Steelers added receiver Michael Pittman Jr. in a trade and took rookie Germie Bernard in the second round, but that shouldn't really change the fact that Rodgers is still a low-upside QB2 for fantasy managers in superflex leagues in what will likely be the final year of his storied NFL career.

Saints Remain Non-Committal on Alvin Kamara's Future

New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis remains non-committal publicly on the status of running back Alvin Kamara, according to Luke Johnson of the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "We're just trying to see how he's gonna fit on our roster. Obviously, there's a resource management element. We'll get to that over the next week or two," Loomis said. The 30-year-old Kamara finished the 2025 season on Injured Reserve due to a knee injury, and there have been rumors this offseason that he's considering hanging up his cleats after nine years in the NFL (all with the Saints). However, the five-time Pro Bowler recently said he's excited to work with new RB Travis Etienne Jr., suggesting that he wants to continue his career in the Big Easy in 2026. If Kamara continues playing and the Saints keep him, they will most likely adjust his $10.4 million salary cap number. He's in the final year of his current deal and has missed 13 games due to injuries in the last three seasons, which is why the team upgraded with Etienne. If Kamara plays in 2026, his fantasy stock is going to take a major hit in all formats. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 59 RB in half-PPR leagues.

Saints Continue to Work on Extension With Chris Olave

When asked about whether there is a timeline to get something done with wide receiver Chris Olave, New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said, "Obviously we'd love to have something done sooner than later, and I'm sure Chris would as well, but we're not there yet," according to Katherine Terrell of ESPN. Loomis added that talks with Olave on a potential long-term contract extension have been good, and Olave has been around the building a lot this offseason, which is a good sign. The 25-year-old former 11th overall pick in 2022 out of Ohio State is heading into the final year of his rookie contract after the Saints picked up his $15.49 million fifth-year option for the 2026 season. Olave played in only eight games due to a concussion in 2024, but he bounced back with career highs in catches (100), receiving yards (1,163), and touchdowns (nine) in 16 starts in 2025 in his fourth year in the league. If the Saints eventually give Olave an extension, he's expected to demand around $33 million per year. Going into 2026 with quarterback Tyler Shough locked in as the starter, Olave is trending up in fantasy football and should be considered a low-end WR1/high-end WR2 target in drafts this fall.

Parker Washington  • WR  •  Jaguars

Parker Washington a Sneaky Trade Target in Dynasty Leagues?

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington finds himself in a very crowded position group, but he has a real opportunity to carve out significant fantasy value again in 2026. Washington had the best season of his career last year, breaking out for 58 catches, 847 yards, and five touchdowns. He ranked as the WR27 in PPR leagues, which led the team. Although he's technically lower than Brian Thomas Jr. and Jakobi Meyers on the depth chart again this year, that's merely a formality, and we expect Washington to pick up right where he left off last winter. The 24-year-old should take on an even larger role with Travis Hunter expected to play more defense than offense, and there won't be any shortage of targets to go around after Trevor Lawrence attempted 32.9 passes per game last year. Washington remains a high-end WR3 in dynasty leagues, making him an intriguing trade candidate since his current managers may not value him as high due to the Jags' crowded offense.

Jarquez Hunter  • RB  •  Rams

Can Jarquez Hunter's Dynasty Outlook Improve in Year 2?

Los Angeles Rams running back Jarquez Hunter had a disappointing rookie season in 2025. Despite having solid draft capital as a fourth-round pick, he played exclusively on special teams last year and did not register an offensive snap. That doesn't bode well for his long-term outlook in dynasty fantasy football, especially since the Rams already have a dominant one-two punch of Kyren Williams and Blake Corum out of the backfield. Even if Hunter does secure the third-string role heading into the season -- and that's far from guaranteed -- he faces an uphill battle to earn meaningful snaps once again. If he goes two years without any sort of significant role on offense, his dynasty value will essentially be non-existent. It's already trending that way, as Hunter has fallen to RB84 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. He can be dropped in shallower leagues, and he belongs at the bottom of the bench in deeper leagues.

James Conner  • RB  •  Cardinals

James Conner Off the Dynasty Radar Entirely?

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner's (foot) dynasty fantasy football value took an enormous hit this offseason as the team brought in two key running backs to presumably take his job. New Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur wasted no time putting his own fingerprint on the offense, signing Tyler Allgeier in free agency and selecting Jeremiyah Love with the third pick in the NFL Draft. Love should be the Week 1 starter, and while Conner could compete with Allgeier for the backup role, Allgeier has the early advantage because Conner has no ties to the new coaching regime in Arizona. It also doesn't help that Conner is 31 years old and coming off a foot/ankle injury. Plus, heading into a contract year, the Cardinals will have less motivation to feed him snaps. There's not much to do with Conner in dynasty leagues, other than stash him. At RB64 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings, he's unlikely to fetch any meaningful compensation if you trade him away, and it would take a serious injury to Love for Conner to have any value as a fantasy starter if you trade for him.

Elijah Arroyo  • TE  •  Seahawks

Will Elijah Arroyo Continue to Have Trouble Getting on the Field?

Seattle Seahawks tight end Elijah Arroyo remains the No. 2 option on the depth chart, which could be good news or bad news. It's encouraging in the sense that the Seahawks didn't draft a rookie tight end, because that could have bumped Arroyo down to the third spot. On the other hand, even as the league shifts to more 12 personnel packages, the Seahawks may continue to use just one tight end (A.J. Barner). Seattle's new offensive coordinator, Brian Fleury, was the tight ends coach with the 49ers last year. In 2025, the 49ers ran 12 personnel on just 11.46% of their plays. That ranked seventh-lowest in the NFL, and it was approximately half the league average rate. If Fleury, despite his background coaching tight end, carries that same philosophy from San Francisco to Seattle, Arroyo could have trouble earning consistent playing time when Barner is healthy. He ranks as the TE28 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings, but it's hard to envision him being a reliable fantasy option as early as 2026.

Tre Tucker  • WR  •  Raiders

Tre Tucker Not a Long-Term Solution in Dynasty Leagues

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker is coming off the best season of his career. Across 17 games in 2025, he caught 57 passes for 696 yards and five touchdowns. He ranked as the overall WR38 in PPR leagues, which was the highest mark of his career. He also led the Raiders' receivers in numerous statistical categories. However, even though the Raiders didn't bring in any star receivers this offseason, Tucker is trending down in dynasty fantasy football leagues. Tucker is heading into a contract year, which means he could be at a disadvantage relative to teammates Jalen Nailor, Jack Bech, Malik Benson, and D'onte Thornton Jr., all of whom have stronger long-term outlooks in Vegas. Additionally, tight end Brock Bowers will be the focal point of the passing game, hogging targets in his high-volume role. Tucker will have some occasional big games, but he won't produce consistently enough (or long enough) to justify trading for him in dynasty leagues. In fact, his stock is falling, as he has dropped to WR93 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings.

Jack Bech  • WR  •  Raiders

Jack Bech a Dynasty Hold as New-Look Raiders Offense Takes Shape

As a second-round pick with an easy-to-root-for story, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jack Bech was a popular early pick in 2025 dynasty rookie drafts, but his first-year production was terribly disappointing. In a Raiders offense that saw number one receiver Jakobi Meyers traded away after Week 9 and All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers either slowed or sidelined by injury for much of the year, Bech mustered up only 224 yards on 20 catches and failed to find the end zone. He finished eighth in total targets for a team that signed a 33-year-old Tyler Lockett off the street partway through the season. Working in Bech's favor is a lack of competition from what remains one of the league's weakest receiver rooms, along with expectations for the offense to take a massive step forward under new head coach Klint Kubiak. The Raiders invested heavily in the offensive line and spent the first overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on quarterback Fernando Mendoza. When healthy, Bowers and running back Ashton Jeanty will remain the unquestioned lynchpins of the offense, but if Bech can beat out Tre Tucker for a reliable tertiary pass-catching role, he could offer a usable fantasy floor. At only 23 years old, he is RotoBaller's dynasty WR80.

Jaydon Blue a Low-Value Dynasty Stash Until Depth Charts are Settled

Dallas Cowboys running back Jaydon Blue did very little in his first professional season after the team selected him in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. A healthy scratch in 12 games, he totaled only 129 rushing yards as a rookie on a 3.4-yard per carry average, and yet he remains a dynasty hold in all but the shallowest of leagues. With the Cowboys largely focused on defense in what was a weak 2026 NFL Draft for running backs, Blue finds himself in competition with only Malik Davis and 2025 seventh-round pick Phil Mafah for the primary backup spot behind Javonte Williams. With the team committing $16 million in guaranteed money to Williams as part of the three-year extension he signed this offseason, it's evident that he is viewed as a true bellcow, but his injury history brings added value to whoever can earn the backup job. On talent alone, Blue should have an advantage, but Davis looked serviceable in his limited opportunities in 2025, averaging almost five yards per carry and topping 100 yards when given the bulk of the work in a Week 17 win over the Commanders. At RotoBaller's dynasty RB68, Blue is unlikely to make a meaningful fantasy impact, but at only 22 years old and offering an element of speed not possessed by any other back on the roster, he's at least worth holding through training camp in hopes that a pecking order becomes more clearly defined.

Makai Lemon a Top-Five Pick in Dynasty Rookie Drafts

When the Philadelphia Eagles traded up to select wide receiver Makai Lemon with the 20th pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, it all but confirmed that A.J. Brown had played his last game with the team. With a trade of the three-time Pro Bowler expected in early June, Lemon is the most exciting new piece in an Eagles receiver room that was rebuilt on the fly. Philadelphia added Hollywood Brown and Dontayvion Wicks prior to the draft and spent a second-round selection on Eli Stowers, a tight end with a wide receiver skill set, ensuring there would be no lack of depth joining incumbent DeVonta Smith. Even with recent rumors suggesting that New England's Kayshon Boutte could be part of Philadelphia's return in the Brown trade, it will undoubtedly be Lemon who most often takes the field with Smith in two-receiver sets. Former NFL quarterback Sean Mannion takes over as the Eagles' offensive coordinator in 2026. With this being his first year in the position, his tendencies are not yet known, but Lemon is a natural target-earner who should become an early favorite of Jalen Hurts. At RotoBaller's rookie WR3, he is well worth a top-five pick in superflex rookie drafts, and he could make an immediate impact, even from a crowded room.

George Kittle  • TE  •  49ers

George Kittle a Dynasty Buy with League-Winning Potential

When healthy, San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (Achilles) remains among the truly elite fantasy difference-makers at the position. On a per-game basis, Kittle was 2025's TE4, finishing almost two Half-PPR points per game higher than the TE5. Unfortunately, he missed five games with a hamstring injury, and his season ended in a Wild Card win over the Eagles with a devastating Achilles tear that threatens his availability for the start of the 2026 season. All reports have suggested that his recovery is going smoothly, but with San Francisco's opening game coming only eight months after the initial injury, it's unlikely Kittle will be ready to go in Week 1, and at 32 years old, he's fallen all the way to RotoBaller's dynasty TE14. At that cost, he has become a screaming buy for contending managers, as he should be close to full health by the fantasy playoffs, and even at 80%, Kittle is capable of putting up week-winning performances in an offense that has long supported multiple fantasy stars.

Chris Rodriguez Jr. a Dynasty Sleeper with High Touchdown Potential

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. signed a two-year, $10 million deal in the opening days of free agency to reunite with head coach Liam Coen, who coached the offense for one year at Kentucky during Rodriguez's most productive collegiate season. With the departure of Travis Etienne Jr. opening up more than 300 opportunities from 2025, the expectation is that Rodriguez will split time with 2025 fourth-round pick Bhayshul Tuten at the top of a running back committee. Having never seen more than four targets in a season, Rodriguez will likely leave the bulk of the receiving work to Tuten and LeQuint Allen Jr., with contributions from Ameer Abdullah, but he should still find fantasy value through early down and goal line work. Last season, in a similarly ambiguous backfield in Washington, Rodriguez led the team in red zone and goal line carries, despite missing four games with a handful of injuries and ailments. His six touchdowns from Week 7 on helped to make him the team's most fantasy-relevant running back over the second half of the season. With Jacksonville's offense clicking immediately in year one under Coen, the Jaguars saw 109 total carries from within the 20-yard line to Washington's 89, with Etienne personally responsible for nearly half. At 26 years old and slotting in at RotoBaller's dynasty RB46, Rodriguez has legitimate sleeper potential as a back who could find plenty of scoring opportunities in an offense that again projects to spend a lot of time in plus territory.

Jonah Coleman  • RB  •  Broncos

Jonah Coleman is an Intriguing Power Back to Target in Dynasty Leagues

Although the Denver Broncos already have second-year running back RJ Harvey and veteran J.K. Dobbins, they selected former University of Washington RB Jonah Coleman in the fourth round (108th overall) in this year's NFL draft. The 5-foot-8, 220-pounder is a bowling ball as a power back who finished with 1,811 rushing yards and 25 touchdowns on 349 carries in two seasons with the Huskies in his final two collegiate campaigns, adding 54 catches for 531 yards and two touchdowns. While Coleman will give the Broncos some toughness between the tackles, especially in short-yardage and goal-line situations, he lacks breakaway, big-play speed. If the 22-year-old develops as a pass-catcher, he could quickly surpass Harvey as a dual-threat option out of the backfield, and he'll provide needed depth behind the injury-prone Dobbins in 2026. Coleman will most likely enter his rookie season as the RB3 with the Broncos, battling Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie for a complementary role. Dynasty managers will need to be patient, but in the long-term, Coleman has plenty of upside with a Broncos organization that is desperately looking to become more efficient and tough on the ground. He's ranked as the No. 28 dynasty RB at RotoBaller going into his first year in the NFL.

Darius Slayton Lacking Long-Term Upside for Dynasty Managers

The New York Giants let wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson walk in free agency this offseason, but they added to the WR room with Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin III, and rookie third-rounder Malachi Fields. Passing-game targets could be up for grabs early on in 2026 if WR1 Malik Nabers (knee) is slow to recover from a torn ACL he suffered early last year, but Darius Slayton himself is rehabbing from core-muscle surgery and won't be present for offseason workouts. In his seventh year with the G-Men in 2025, the 29-year-old pass-catcher underwhelmed with 37 receptions on 63 targets for 538 yards and just one touchdown in 14 games. His 538 receiving yards were the second-fewest of his career, and he has never caught more than 50 passes in a single season. Slayton also hasn't had more than four touchdowns in a season since he spiked with eight trips to the end zone in his rookie campaign in 2019. He should be healthy for the start of the 2026 regular season in early September, but Slayton will continue to be a low-ceiling fantasy receiver in an offense that also added pass-catching tight end Isaiah Likely in the offseason. Slayton has fallen all the way to the No. 136 WR in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings, and he's a cut candidate in those same formats.

Keaton Mitchell a Prime Dynasty Handcuff Option Entering First Season in L.A.

Across 13 games as a member of the Baltimore Ravens in 2025, Los Angeles Chargers running back Keaton Mitchell recorded 404 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 68 touches. While Mitchell never quite carved out a consistent role in the Baltimore offense in any of his three seasons with the team, he consistently flashed high-end upside by averaging 6.8 yards per touch. Now in Los Angeles, Mitchell remains blocked off from the RB1 role by the presence of Chargers running back Omarion Hampton. However, Mitchell looks like the favorite for the team's RB2 role and could be Los Angeles' lead pass-catcher out of the backfield. He also has the benefit of working with new Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who consistently squeezed fantasy-relevant production out of multiple running backs during his time as the play-caller for the Miami Dolphins. Following his offseason change of scenery, Mitchell's dynasty stock is rising entering 2026.

Jadarian Price Looks Like the Running Back of the Future in Seattle

After recording 20 touchdowns on just 243 touches over his final two collegiate seasons at Notre Dame, running back Jadarian Price was selected in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle had one of the better running back tandems in the league in 2025 in Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet (knee). However, Walker III signed with the Kansas City Chiefs in March, and Charbonnet underwent surgery to repair a torn ACL in late February. As a result, Price could be in a position to lead the Seattle backfield right away in 2026. The Seahawks will eventually get Charbonnet back, and they also signed former Packers back Emanuel Wilson in free agency to take some of the pressure off of Price. Still, the 22-year-old clearly profiles as the running back of the future in Seattle. RotoBaller currently ranks Price as its 21st-best dynasty running back entering 2026.
