Drake London Note
	7. Drake London ATL (at CAR)

Nico Collins Note
	8. Nico Collins HOU (vs . TEN)

Rashee Rice Note
	9. Rashee Rice KC (vs . LV) Rashee Rice is an interesting WR to rank, given how much he was targeted in the red zone this past season (a ton of screen passes). Rice finished top-5 among WRs in PPG during his truncated season. 7th overall in red-zone targets in just 8 games played. Given his draft price might be slightly reduced based on his off-field issues and injured QB...Rice could easily be a league winner and dark-horse WR1 overall candidate in 2026. 16 weeks ago

Tee Higgins Note
	15. Tee Higgins CIN (vs . CLE)

DeVonta Smith Note
	16. DeVonta Smith PHI (at NYG) A.J. Brown is as good as gone in Philly, even if it's post-draft. Dallas Goedert is returning on a one-year deal. DeVonta Smith has shown a fantasy WR1 ceiling when his teammates have missed time the last few seasons. Most recently, in Week 8 of the 2025 season, Smith went 6-84 yards on nine targets with AJB out of the lineup. He is an objectively good, if not great, WR...and his numbers are not truly indicative of his talent profile. He was more efficient than Brown was in 2025, while posting his third 1,000-yard season. More importantly, the Slim Reaper averaged career-high marks in yards per route run (3.1) and yards per target (11.9) when aligned out wide. Only Jaxon Smith-Njigba (3.8) and Puka Nacua (3.6) and have averaged more yards per route run when aligned out wide among 89 wide receivers to have logged at least 150 such routes. 9 weeks ago

Garrett Wilson Note
	17. Garrett Wilson NYJ (at BUF)

Davante Adams Note
	18. Davante Adams LAR (vs . SEA) 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 4 days ago

Zay Flowers Note
	19. Zay Flowers BAL (vs . PIT) There's a world where Zay Flowers has the talent to be a top-5 fantasy WR if he can ever score TDs. Cooking. Over 1,200 yards. 86 catches and 5 TDs (WR7) in 2025. WR3 over the last five games. 4+ catches in 13 of his 17 games: a testament to his reliable floor and consistent involvement. 5th in target share (28%). 11th in air yards share (35%). 4th in yards per route run behind Puka Nacua, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Luther Burden. His late-season scoring binge (five TDs over the last four games) helped him tie the six touchdowns he scored in his rookie campaign. 12 weeks ago

Ladd McConkey Note
	20. Ladd McConkey LAC (at DEN) Don't hold the OL injuries against the Chargers' skill players. Ladd McConkey specifically. The Chargers' WR failed to live up to his expectations from his rookie season, as Keenan Allen's presence capped his target/production ceiling. The 33-year-old WR LED the Chargers in targets under OC Greg Roman (hyper-targeted on third downs). But with Roman replaced by Mike McDaniel, we should expect McConkey to finish closer to his rookie season, when he averaged 2.6 YPRR. McDaniel knows how to deploy his WRs to achieve peak efficiency both for real-life and fantasy purposes. 16 weeks ago

Luther Burden III Note
	21. Luther Burden III CHI (at MIN)

Jaylen Waddle Note
	22. Jaylen Waddle DEN (vs . LAC)

Terry McLaurin Note
	23. Terry McLaurin WAS (vs . DAL)

Emeka Egbuka Note
	24. Emeka Egbuka TB (at NO)

Jameson Williams Note
	25. Jameson Williams DET (at GB)

Mike Evans Note
	26. Mike Evans SF (at ARI)

Christian Watson Note
	27. Christian Watson GB (vs . DET) Christian Watson returned to the lineup in Week 8 after tearing his ACL late into the 2024 season. Despite coming off a brutal injury, Watson was electric. He supplanted Romeo Doubs as the WR1 in the Packers' offense. Watson was the WR17 in PPG (11.5) to go with a 34% air yard share (over 1,000 air yards). Hit career highs in yards and yards per route run. Never saw fewer than four targets in any contest. Watson led the NFL with 294 deep receiving yards once coming back from his injury. 16 weeks ago

DJ Moore Note
	28. DJ Moore BUF (vs . NYJ)

Rome Odunze Note
	29. Rome Odunze CHI (at MIN) Rome Odunze's second season was a tale of two halves, as injuries and poor catchable targets derailed what started as a breakout campaign. Before Week 9, he ranked top-10 in WR fantasy points per game while dominating high-value usage, leading the Bears in targets, red-zone looks, and air yards share. The concerns are real with Colston Loveland and Luther Burden taking larger roles in Year 2 but Chicago also lost significant WR volume and touchdown production entering 2026 with the departure of DJ Moore. Odunze remains a strong positive regression candidate tied to Caleb Williams, especially if the Bears' passing game takes another step forward under HC Ben Johnson. 4 days ago

Carnell Tate Note
	30. Carnell Tate TEN (at HOU)

Marvin Harrison Jr. Note
	31. Marvin Harrison Jr. ARI (vs . SF)

DK Metcalf Note
	32. DK Metcalf PIT (at BAL)

Courtland Sutton Note
	33. Courtland Sutton DEN (vs . LAC)

Alec Pierce Note
	34. Alec Pierce IND (vs . JAC) Alec Pierce is going to get paid. He finished 2025 with career highs in catches (47), yards (1,003). But he was also solid in 2024 (827 yards on 37 receptions). Led the Colts in receiving yards for 2 straight years (and NFL in yards/reception). Michael Pittman Jr./Josh Downs/Jonathan Taylor are entering the final years of their deals in 2026. Pierce could get a bag from the Colts or another team in free agency. 16 weeks ago

Jordyn Tyson Note
	35. Jordyn Tyson NO (vs . TB) The Saints drafted Jordyn Tyson 8th overall, adding a high-upside weapon for their second-year QB in Kellen Moore's fast-paced offense. The former Arizona State standout broke out at 18 and commanded a 35% target share in 2025, showcasing elite target-earning ability when healthy. Durability concerns linger after multiple injuries, but his prospect profile checks nearly every box of a future WR1. With New Orleans capable of supporting multiple fantasy-relevant wideouts, Tyson has a clear path to operate as a No. 2 if not 1B alongside Chris Olave. 2 weeks ago

Michael Wilson Note
	36. Michael Wilson ARI (vs . SF)

Chris Godwin Jr. Note
	37. Chris Godwin Jr. TB (at NO)

Brian Thomas Jr. Note
	38. Brian Thomas Jr. JAC (at IND)

Makai Lemon Note
	39. Makai Lemon PHI (at NYG)

Jakobi Meyers Note
	40. Jakobi Meyers JAC (at IND)

Parker Washington Note
	41. Parker Washington JAC (at IND)

Ricky Pearsall Note
	42. Ricky Pearsall SF (at ARI) Buy Ricky Pearsall. Constantly injured in 2025. But he posted 4 games with 85-plus receiving yards. Also led the 49ers in receiving yards per game (59/game). And although nobody will want to admit it, there is an immense opportunity for Pearsall in the 49ers' offense even with the addition of FA MIke Evans. Jauan Jennings is a free agent. Brandon Aiyuk is not coming back. George Kittle is coming off a torn Achilles. "If" the third-year WR can stay healthy, Slick Rick could be a major piece of winning fantasy football rosters in 2026. 9 weeks ago

Jordan Addison Note
	43. Jordan Addison MIN (vs . CHI)

Michael Pittman Jr. Note
	44. Michael Pittman Jr. PIT (at BAL)

Wan'Dale Robinson Note
	45. Wan'Dale Robinson TEN (at HOU)

Jayden Reed Note
	46. Jayden Reed GB (vs . DET)

Quentin Johnston Note
	47. Quentin Johnston LAC (at DEN)

Josh Downs Note
	48. Josh Downs IND (vs . JAC) Josh Downs is good. PFF's 20th-highest graded WR in 2025. And for the second straight year...the Colts slot WR was hyper-targeted at a 24% clip. That led all Colts WRs and TEs in 2025. And he creates separation. Per Fantasy Points Data...Downs ranked 20th in average separation score. Downs has been limited because of a lack of high-end route participation, but a late-season route bump could suggest more of Downs in a full-time role in 2026....after the team traded Michael Pittman Jr. to the Steelers. 9 weeks ago

Deebo Samuel Sr. Note
	62. Deebo Samuel Sr. FA (BYE)

Travis Hunter Note
	63. Travis Hunter JAC (at IND) Early reports out of the Jags' camp are that Hunter will be more deployed at CB than at WR in 2026 based on the team's current needs at the position (CBs Greg Newsome II, Montaric Brown, and Christian Braswell are all on expiring contracts). Recall that the 2025 Jaguars offense took OFF without Hunter in the second half of the season. 15 weeks ago

Jalen McMillan Note

Kayshon Boutte Note
	66. Kayshon Boutte NE (vs . MIA)

Adonai Mitchell Note
	67. Adonai Mitchell NYJ (at BUF)

Antonio Williams Note
	68. Antonio Williams WAS (vs . DAL) Antonio Williams is a sneaky Day 2 value who projects into an immediate slot role in Washington's offense. The former Clemson standout broke out at 19 and has consistently flashed strong efficiency (2.27 YPRR in 2025) despite battling injuries and an underwhelming team environment. With Deebo Samuel gone and the Commanders ranking top-3 in vacated targets, there's a clear path to volume behind Terry McLaurin. Williams' slot-heavy usage, versatility on special teams, and strong production profile make him a strong late-round sleeper in PPR formats. 2 weeks ago

Hollywood Brown Note
	108. Hollywood Brown PHI (at NYG)

Tyquan Thornton Note
	109. Tyquan Thornton KC (vs . LV) Tyquan Thornton re-signed with the Chiefs on a two-year deal worth $11 million. This is notable given that only Xavier Worthy and Jalen Royals were the other Chiefs WRs under contract for the 2027 season. The speedy wide receiver had his most productive season in the NFL last year, catching 19 passes for 438 yards and three touchdowns (on nearly 1,000 air yards and 23 deep targets). He stepped up at the start of the year due to Worthy's injury and Rashee Rice's suspension. Over the first 5 weeks of the year, Thornton averaged 10.3 fantasy points per game. His 2025 yardage and touchdown totals set new career-highs, and he averaged 23.1 yards per reception (first in the NFL). Also had zero recorded drops. 9 weeks ago
