Expert
Andrew Erickson FantasyPros	Ted Hurst is one of the more intriguing Day 2 receivers from the 2026 class after dominating at multiple collegiate stops and testing like a true NFL athlete. The Buccaneers landed a size-speed prospect with legitimate downfield chops, as Hurst led the FBS in deep-ball production while showcasing strong contested-catch ability and red-zone upside. Tampa Bay offers a realistic path to early playing time with Mike Evans gone, giving Hurst an opportunity to compete for outside snaps immediately. He may be somewhat raw entering the league, but the athletic profile, target-earning ability, and landing spot make Hurst an appealing upside bet for both dynasty and deeper redraft formats.
