Coming this summer!

Per the team's transaction log, the Dallas Cowboys have signed fifth-round rookie running back Jaydon Blue to a four-year, $4.62 million contract. The 21-year-old played second fiddle to teammate Quintrevion Wisner for the Texas Longhorns and is smaller in stature (5-foot-9) but has speed for days (4.38 40-yard dash). Blue has the odds stacked against him for playing time -- considering his draft capital -- but it isn't unheard of for late-round selections to make a splash in the league. Furthermore, the talent (or lack thereof) in front of him in Miles Sanders and Javonte Williams doesn't pose much of a threat in the way of competition. He'll undoubtedly have an opportunity to make his way to the field, but it won't be good for his prospects if he can't beat out the aforementioned veterans for playing time.

Dynasty | The San Francisco 49ers drafted Ole Miss wide receiver Jordan Watkins with the final pick of the fourth round in the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: Watkins wasn't really on the radar prior to the NFL Draft, but that changed in a hurry after he was taken in the fourth round by the 49ers. Seen mostly as a special teams player in the pre-draft process, San Francisco clearly sees some upside in his receiving prowess after taking him with the final pick in the fourth round. Time will tell if Watkins can move up the depth chart but you can do worse with a late round dart throw.

Dynasty | The Los Angeles Chargers drafted Auburn wide receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: Hmm. Interesting. Lambert-Smith led Penn State in receiving last year and Auburn this year, making him productive in two major conferences. He lands in a good spot with the Chargers but is going to need to prove he's more than just a deep threat to stick long-term. Still, this is an intriguing pick and makes Lambert-Smith worthy of a late round rookie selection.

Dynasty | The Buffalo Bills have signed wide receiver Elijah Moore. Dynasty Analysis: It's been a weird couple of years for Moore, who looked like a solid prospect when he first came into the league with the Jets. Instead, he saw Garrett Wilson steal the show and subsequently failed to do much in two seasons with the Browns as well. With just nine touchdowns in 61 career games, Moore looks like a player with a career trajectory heading in the wrong direction. He has a ways to go before making any kind of impact with the Bills and is currently a weak roster hold.

Dynasty | Tank Dell is unlikely to play next season as he recovers from surgery. Dynasty Analysis: As if the Texans drafting not one, but two receivers from Iowa State didn't clue you in, this latest report states what most dynasty managers were assuming - we aren't going to see Dell for a while. It's tough news to swallow, but also not much of a surprise as Dell suffered a catastrophic knee injury late last season. He'll remain a good roster stash, but his dynasty value has really sunk as a result of not one, but now two serious injuries during his time in the NFL.

Dynasty | The Steelers have traded wide receiver George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys. Dynasty Analysis: Despite Pickens saying he wanted to stay in Pittsburgh and the Steelers also saying they were fine keeping him, this marriage had simply run its course. Pittsburgh will reportedly receive a 2026 third round pick and a 2027 fifth round pick in exchange for their disgruntled wideout. Pickens will slide into the Cowboys offense as the clear WR2 next to CeeDee Lamb and should find it possible to post similar seasons as he has in the past with close to 60 catches, 1,000 yards and a handful of touchdowns as long as he stays engaged, which has always been a bit of a challenge.

Dynasty | The Jaguars have released wide receiver Gabe Davis. Dynasty Analysis: Davis had some solid seasons in Buffalo, scoring 27 touchdowns over his four seasons with the Bills. This led him to signing with Jacksonville last year as they hoped he could form a nice receiving duo with Brian Thomas Jr. That simply never happened as Davis posted just 20 catches for 239 yards and two scores over ten games. The Jags are taking a $20 million cap hit to release Davis but obviously find him to be unnecessary now that they have Travis Hunter, who now has an even easier road to targets. Davis should latch on somewhere in the coming weeks, but his dynasty value has evaporated.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Elic Ayomanor and tight end Gunnar Helm were both fourth-round selections in the 2025 NFL Draft. While fourth-round picks are not guaranteed to make an impact right away, the Stanford and Texas products, respectively, "should have a path to contributing early," according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Many draft analysts had a Round 2 or Round 3 grade on Ayomanor, who posted 1,844 yards and 12 touchdowns in two collegiate seasons. The Titans' wide receiver group behind Calvin Ridley and the aging Tyler Lockett is underwhelming, so don't be surprised if Ayomanor is starting at the X-WR spot early in his rookie campaign. Meanwhile, Chig Okonkwo is still slotted in as the starter at tight end, but Helm, who caught 60 passes and scored seven touchdowns last season, could eat into his snaps and become a factor in 12-personnel. Neither pass-catcher is likely to be a consistent fantasy producer in an offense led by rookie quarterback Cam Ward, but they should be monitored throughout the season as potential waiver wire targets in deeper setups.

According to Zac Jackson of The Athletic, Kenny Pickett or Joe Flacco could be traded this summer, depending on how things go with the Cleveland Browns quarterback competition during the offseason. Cleveland notably selected Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel in Round 3 and Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders in Round 5 of the 2025 NFL Draft. While Deshaun Watson (Achilles) is not likely to be a factor in 2025, the additions of the rookies create a crowded position room. Jackson noted that Pickett's has $2.63 million that his "essentially" guaranteed by Cleveland, which could suggest Flacco is more likely to be dealt. The Browns are likely looking at picking a first-round quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft, so seeing what Gabriel and Sanders can do is a top priority rather than winning a few more games with one of the established veterans.

Indianapolis Colts defensive end Samson Ebukam (Achilles), who suffered a torn Achilles last offseason, expects to be cleared in time to participate in training camp. The former fourth-round pick out of Eastern Washington by the Los Angeles Rams in 2017 joined the Colts in 2023 and led the team in sacks (9.5) right away. However, his major lower-body injury cost him the entire 2024 campaign. On the bright side, he will have nearly a full year to cover before getting back to action. The Colts ranked 25th in total sacks (36) a season ago, so his return to health could be a nice boost for new defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo. He could also help take pressure off young pass rushers Kwity Paye and Laiatu Latu. Ebukam has tallied 281 tackles (176 solo), 33 sacks, 11 forced fumbles, five fumble recoveries, one interception, and nine pass deflections across 113 career games.

The Dallas Cowboys released wide receiver Seth Williams following the acquisition of former Pittsburgh Steelers wideout George Pickens, according to NFL.com. The 25-year-old Williams was once a deep fantasy football sleeper coming out of Auburn. He was selected in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos and spent time with the Jacksonville Jaguars before joining the Dallas practice squad last season. Williams has appeared in two NFL games, catching one pass for 34 yards. Needless to say, his hopes of being a full-time member of an active roster are likely over.

The Houston Texans re-signed defensive tackle Folorunso Fatukasi to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, a source told ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime. Fatukasi will return to Houston after starting 11 games for the team in 2024 while helping bolster a Texans run defense that ranked ninth in fewest yards allowed (107) and eighth in yards per attempt (4.2). The 30-year-old former sixth-round pick (180th overall) by the New York Jets in 2018 out of Connecticut had only one sack in 2024 and 5.5 in his seven-year NFL career, so he's not on the IDP fantasy radar, but he led the Texans defense in run-stuff rate (4.8%) and was tied for third in run-stuff tackles (eight), according to NextGen Stats. Fatukasi dealt with injuries in his first season in Houston, playing in just 11 regular-season games while missing the final three games due to an ankle injury.

With the addition of wide receiver George Pickens via trade on Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys pass-catcher Jalen Tolbert will now operate as the team's No. 3 wideout in 2025 behind CeeDee Lamb and Pickens. Tolbert could also face competition from KaVontae Turpin for the role, but the 26-year-old should have the leg up for the WR3 job after a career year in 2024 in which he set career-highs in catches (49), targets (79), receiving yards (610) and touchdowns (seven) in 17 games (15 starts). Even in what should be a pass-happy Cowboys offense with quarterback Dak Prescott returning from his hamstring injury, Tolbert just won't have enough volume to make him worthy starting on a weekly basis in most fantasy leagues. However, if one of Lamb or Pickens misses time with an injury, Tolbert will be an attractive waiver-wire pickup.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are counting on wide receiver Roman Wilson to take a Year 2 jump after trading George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Wilson has looked like a different player this offseason than what he looked like in his injury-riddled rookie campaign in 2024. Pittsburgh selected the 23-year-old in the third round (84th overall) last year out of Michigan, but he played in just one game due to ankle and hamstring injuries and didn't record a single catch. In his final season with the Wolverines in college, Wilson produced 49 catches for 789 yards and 12 touchdowns. If he can get past the injuries that plagued him in his first NFL season, Wilson is fully expected to be the No. 2 wideout behind DK Metcalf, albeit in a run-first offense that currently has Mason Rudolph as the projected starting quarterback.

The Dallas Cowboys' plan is for newly acquired wide receiver George Pickens to play out his rookie deal in 2025, a source tells ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The Cowboys swung a trade for Pickens and a 2026 sixth-round draft pick with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Wednesday in exchange for a 2026 third-rounder and a 2027 fifth-rounder. The 24-year-old Pickens gives Dallas a big upgrade at the No. 2 receiver spot behind All-Pro CeeDee Lamb. Although Pickens is going to have plenty of competition for targets from Lamb -- he would have had that in Pittsburgh as well alongside DK Metcalf -- the move to Dallas should be overwhelmingly positive for his fantasy value in 2025. Pickens will now be working with quarterback Dak Prescott in an offense that could be very pass-heavy when considering their mediocre backfield options. The former second-rounder has 2,841 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns in his three NFL seasons.

The Pittsburgh Steelers remain in contact with free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers and are hopeful that he will eventually sign with them, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. As things currently stand, Mason Rudolph is the projected starting QB for Pittsburgh, with rookie Will Howard backing him up and Skylar Thompson also in the QB room. Rodgers, who isn't in a rush to sign this offseason, said he's willing to play for $10 million in 2025. The Steelers' offense just got worse after trading receiver George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys on Wednesday, so Rodgers would be working with DK Metcalf and Roman Wilson as his top wideouts if he were to head to the Steel City. After disappointing with the New York Jets while working with pass-catchers Davante Adams and Garrett Wilson in 2024, fantasy managers shouldn't suddenly expect a rebound in 2025 in what will likely be a run-first offense.

The Tennessee Titans have re-signed defensive tackle James Lynch to a one-year deal, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Lynch, a Baylor product, was originally drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft. He was a depth contributor with the Vikings for three seasons but missed his contract year due to a torn ACL. Lynch landed with the Titans for the 2024 season, during which he amassed 20 tackles, two sacks, and two passes defended. He hasn't started a game since 2022, but the Titans' decision to re-sign him indicates that they value him as a key piece of their defensive core.

The Philadelphia Eagles and tight end Dallas Goedert are finalizing a reworked deal, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Enquirer. Goedert is entering his final season under contract, and the Eagles were said to be fielding trade offers during the draft. The veteran tight end was aware of the trade chatter, and now, he's reportedly taking a pay cut to stay with the Eagles for several years as they look to defend their Super Bowl title. Injuries limited Goedert to a career-low 10 games last season, and as a result, his production dwindled. He finished the year with just 42 catches for 496 yards and two touchdowns. Although he's behind Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, and DeVonta Smith in the Eagles' offensive pecking order, he should be a top-12 fantasy tight end if he can stay healthy. At the very least, Philadelphia's willingness to sign him to a reworked deal indicates that they want him to remain a central point of their offense for several years to come.

As the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to navigate the offseason, trading for New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard is "in play," according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. As Florio notes, the move likely hinges on whether the Steelers sign quarterback Aaron Rodgers. This wouldn't be the first time a team has pursued a receiver to satisfy the veteran signal caller. The Green Bay Packers once re-acquired Randall Cobb as part of Rodgers' demands during a contract holdout, and the Jets signed Lazard after trading for Rodgers in 2023. The 29-year-old would likely slot in as Pittsburgh's No. 2 receiver behind DK Metcalf after they traded George Pickens to Dallas. He typically plays much better with Rodgers throwing him the football, as he commanded 100 targets from the future Hall of Famer in 2022. He also opened last season with 412 yards and five touchdowns over his first seven games, all of which featured Rodgers under center. Any sort of Lazard trade likely won't happen until Rodgers makes a decision on his future. While nothing is imminent, fantasy managers should keep tabs on Rodgers, as his eventual decision will surely have a ripple effect on many players across the league.

The Dallas Cowboys have officially announced that they acquired wide receiver George Pickens and a 2027 sixth-round pick from the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick. The Pickens trade had been reported earlier in the morning on Wednesday, but the Cowboys' announcement provided details on the return package and officially confirmed the transaction. The trade gives Dallas a very strong No. 2 wide receiver alongside CeeDee Lamb, perhaps reinforcing Dallas' desire to operate a pass-heavy offense in 2025. After all, the Cowboys have one of the NFL's weaker backfields, so being able to move the ball through the air is a priority. Pickens piqued Dallas' interest during the draft, and the Cowboys now make the move to get him less than two weeks later. For Pittsburgh, this trade downgrades an already weak offense. Although Pittsburgh did go out to get DK Metcalf this offseason, they might struggle to get passing production out of a quarterback room that features Will Howard, Mason Rudolph, and Skylar Thompson. The pass-catching depth chart is also weak beyond Metcalf and Pat Freiermuth, and the backfield now features Jaylen Warren after the team lost Najee Harris in free agency. Metcalf remains a high-end WR3 option for fantasy purposes, Freiermuth could be a fine security blanket once again, and Warren figures to have heavy involvement on the ground. Meanwhile, Pickens' quarterback upgrade gives him a major fantasy boost. At the same time, there shouldn't be any panic about CeeDee Lamb; there are plenty of targets to go around, and he remains a strong fantasy WR1.
