Notes
	Royce Lewis's elite upside remains undeniable, but his 2025 season underscored the growing gap between talent and fantasy reliability, as he posted a .237/.283/.388 line with diminished power and run production over 106 games. While his athleticism still shows up with occasional steals and defensive flexibility, the overall offensive profile has slipped closer to below league average. FantasyPros 2026 projections remain cautiously optimistic, but until Lewis can stay on the field and sustain his early-career power, he profiles as a high-variance pick whose draft cost may outweigh the floor in standard formats.
