Fantasy Impact: Golden had a very quiet rookie season last year after being selected in round one of the 2025 NFL Draft. With Romeo Doubs having walked in free agency and Dontayvion Wicks traded, Golden should see much more opportunity on the field heading into his second season. He'll remain on the WR4 radar for fantasy managers until he can prove himself a little more.
Dontayvion Wicks has been traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for a 2026 fifth round pick and a 2027 sixth. Wicks will sign a $12.5 million extension with the Eagles. (Source: Adam Schefter via X)
Fantasy Impact: $12.5 million is not nothing, and his addition is an interesting transaction given the AJ Brown trade rumors. It doesn’t preclude the Eagles from taking a receiver in the NFL Draft, but his contact seems to signal a decent amount of involvement in the Eagles upcoming plans.
