Marquez Valdes-Scantling to meet with Chargers
Veteran WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling is scheduled to visit with the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
The Chargers completely reset at WR this offseason, moving on from WRs Mike Williams and Keenan Allen. With a WR room of Joshua Palmer, Quentin Johnston and DJ Chark Jr. – and rookies Ladd McConkey, Brenden Rice and Cornelius Johnson – the Chargers could use further veteran help. Not much more should be expected from Valdes-Scantling beyond vertical field-stretching and occasional splash plays, but it’s a role the team could use within a rotation if they sign together.

Chase Claypool signing with Bills
Chase Claypool is signing a one-year deal with the Buffalo Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Claypool has been on three different teams over the past two seasons, and now he’s signing a one-year deal to join the Bills. He has totaled just 528 yards and two touchdowns over the past couple of seasons, but with Buffalo being thin at the wide receiver position, he may have a chance to make an impact. The added depth is good for QB Josh Allen, who will be without both Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis for the first time in several years.

Odell Beckham Jr. signs one-year deal with Miami
Odell Beckham Jr. is signing a one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins.
Fantasy Impact
Beckham has been weighing his options for a while now, but he has finally come to the decision to sign with the Miami Dolphins. He was reportedly offered more money to sign elsewhere, but he declined it because he likes how he fits with Miami. He will be behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle on the depth chart, but he will likely be the WR3 for the team with a reasonable chance to be fantasy relevant in the case of an injury. His presence will also snuff out any hope for a rookie year breakout from Malik Washington or Tahj Washington, both of whom Miami got in the NFL Draft.
