Dynasty Fantasy Football Player News

Jefferson is entering the final year of his rookie contract and is in line to possibly be the highest paid receiver of all-time. Minnesota has Jordan Addison as well but Jefferson is clearly one of the biggest difference makers in the league so it would be shocking to see him hit free agency. Regardless, Jefferson is playing it safe here and dynasty managers don't need to be too concerned at this point in the off-season. He remains our WR1 at this point in time.

Adams is coming off a decent 103-1,144-8 season but also one that saw his production come in peaks and valleys. As the article indicates, Adams is basically saying he'd already be gone if he wanted to be. The Jets have reportedly made some overtures but those were quickly extinguished. At this point, it would be a surprise to see Adams anywhere other than Vegas next season. However, finding a decent quarterback to keep his stats where they should be is another challenge altogether. Adams has dropped to our WR26 but is still a solid trade target for a contending team.

Smith is now under team control through the 2028 season and Smth gets $51 million in guaranteed money as part of the deal. It's a hefty price to pay for a WR2 but Smith is clearly one of the best receivers in the game and is coming off back-to-back seasons featuring more than 1,000 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in each year. While AJ Brown gets a lot of the attention, Smith could hold more true value as our WR13.

This really isn't much of a story as few expected Lamb to be around until he gets a contract extension. He's entering the last year of his deal and is inevitably going to be one of the league's highest paid players after a 135/1,749/12 season. Lamb is quickly putting some heat on players like Ja'Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson to be the overall WR1. Dynasty managers shouldn't be concerned until the season draws closer.

The contract lowers Chubb's base salary and adds a lot of incentives, ensuring he'll stay in Cleveland for the upcoming season. Chubb is recovering from two different knee surgeries and while the Browns expect him back this season, it's anyone's guess as to when that will actually happen. Now 28, there are legitimate questions about his long-term future but he could also be a pretty solid buy low candidate in dynasty leagues as his ADP has tanked in recent months.

Rice is going up against eight charges, including aggravated assault stemming from the auto racing incident last week. This is clearly no surprise, especially after video was released showing the incident. Rice is fortunate nobody was severely injured (or worse) but could still face a suspension moving forward once the story unfolds. There really isn't any change to his dynasty value at this point, other than the fact nobody is going to want to trade for him at the moment. As such, Rice is simply a "hold" until this matter shakes out.

This story is kind of from the land of the obvious but Levis really should be in a better spot going into next season. With Calvin Ridley and DeAndre Hopkins at receiver and Tony Pollard being signed to replace Derrick Henry, the Titans didn't exactly punt on helping him over the last month. Levis was electric in his first game action but turned into a glorified game manager the rest of the way. He's on the hot seat this year in Tennessee, though it would be a surprise to see them take a successor in the draft this year. Levis remains a hold in dynasty leagues.

Richardson is recovering from surgery to repair his AC Joint and is apparently throwing 40 or so passes a day. It's a big step for a quarterback who is now clearly under the microscope after a season that showed amazing flashes of brilliance but also one marred by repeated injuries. Richardson is one of the biggest boom or bust players in dynasty leagues at the moment and needs to show some rapid improvement on the accuracy and health front to maintain his lofty ranking.

In a very unusual procedural move, the Texans wiped out the final three years of his contract and moved more guaranteed money to this season, meaning Diggs will make more than $22 million in what amounts to being a one-year rental for Houston. It's a gamble for the Texans but one that should also motivate Diggs, who is now going to get paid handsomely for one season in Houston as he attempts to prove he's worthy of one more long-term contract in Houston or elsewhere. This doesn't change much, other than the narrative that Nico Collins or Tank Dell are somehow hurt long-term by this trade.

Amazingly, Shenault's career has turned into that resembling nothing more than a kick returner at this point. It looks like he'll serve in that capacity for the Seahawks after failing to develop as a wide receiver in Jacksonville or Carolina. More name than game at this point, Shenault should be on dynasty waiver wires moving forward unless Seattle gets buried with injuries.
