Fantasy Football Player Notes

Puka Nacua further cemented himself as one of the NFL's premier receivers in 2025, finishing as fantasy football's overall WR1 after averaging more than 107 receiving yards per game. The Rams star dominated targets and efficiency alike, leading all wide receivers in yards per route run while setting career-high counting stats across the board. Even with Davante Adams siphoning red-zone opportunities, Nacua still delivered elite touchdown production and week-winning consistency. At just 25 years old in pursuit of a new contract, Nacua belongs firmly in the conversation for the WR1 overall again in 2026 (injuries and off-field issues aside).

The early ECR is pricing Davante Adams as a mid-WR2. Last year was actually a red flag season disguised as an elite one; he posted a career-low catch rate of 53%, his YAC per reception hit a career low, and the bulk of his production was TD-dependent with 15 scores. That kind of touchdown volume is notoriously hard to replicate year over year. Even though Matthew Stafford is back under center in LA, he may not force-feed Adams in the end zone as he did in 2025 en route to an MVP award (7.7% TD rate). On top of that, Adams turns 33 and dealt with a lower-body tissue injury in 2025 that cost him time; at his age, that's not something you just brush off. When you look at the totality: the age, the injury, the TD regression risk, the declining efficiency numbers: easy to see a player far more likely to fall off than to replicate 2025
