Keeping track of everything in the offseason can be overwhelming.

I made a team-by-team guide to get you caught up on every fantasy-relevant move from this offseason.

No analysis, just a quick recap of every move that matters for fantasy football.

Here are my updated Redraft PPR Tier Rankings!

- I've outlined the players I'm most interested in at their Current ADP

The Tiers are far more important than the individual rankings themselves

- In most Tiers, you can almost make an argument for any player to be above another

The Hotseat 🔥 is back...

Wide receiver is deeper than ever. So why does it feel harder than ever? @KeithFlemming and I break down the elite tiers, risky WR1s, bargains, busts, and bold calls.

Who's too high? Too low? And which ones might be traps?

A message to all sane Republicans:

He pardoned 1,600 violent criminals.
You said nothing.

He bulldozed the East Wing.
You said nothing.

He interfered with the release of the Epstein files. You said nothing.

He took over the Kennedy Center and renamed it after himself. You said nothing.

He accepted a $400 million airplane as a personal gift. You said nothing.

He threatened Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia, and Brazil. You said nothing.

He tariffed just about everyone but Russia, causing inflation and instability worldwide. You said nothing.

He attacked a nation during mediated negotiations. You said nothing.

His ill-conceived war killed 175 children on day one. You said nothing.

He alienated and insulted our allies. You said nothing.

His ICE Army terrorized and murdered U.S. citizens. You said nothing.

He committed murder on the high seas. You said nothing.

He co-opted the Justice Department and directed it to prosecute his political enemies. You said nothing.

It’s time to start talking.

Jumped on The Insiders with @RapSheet and @MikeGarafolo last week to talk some year 2 and 3 breakouts I like - I’m especially high on the Chargers!

[Kyle @KyleM_FF]

I wanted to take a deeper look at the teams that had the most vacated targets heading into the 2025 season

- Can we analyze how those situations played out and find comparable scenarios heading into 2026?

I think that one of three things typically occurs with those vacated targets:

1. They are spread out evenly amongst every receiver or the replacement additions
2. They are funneled to certain receivers based on personnel changes, scheme, and talent
3. The offenses are so inefficient and anemic that it doesn’t matter how many vacated targets there are if they can’t score or move the ball down the field

[Seahawks and Rams in 2025]

- We saw the Seahawks lean toward heavier personnel (2WR sets), and funnel most of their vacated targets to their best player (JSN)
- The Rams added Davante Adams and changed their scheme to fit his strengths, force-feeding him in the red zone, to great success

2026 Comparable Teams: Chargers, Eagles

-The Chargers' best receiver and most talented separator is Ladd McConkey, who I think is in line to absorb the majority of the upside available from the team’s vacated targets
- Similarly, in Philadelphia, I think that DeVonta Smith will shine as the bona fide WR1 of the Eagles for the first time in his career

[Jaguars & Chargers in 2025]

- The Jaguars' offense evolved under HC Liam Coen, ranking 5th in PPG last season (27.7), and while many (me) thought BTJ would have followed a similar path to JSN, the targets were distributed rather evenly
- The Chargers had a similar target distribution hierarchy as the Jaguars, but in a far less productive offense (20.6 PPG)

2026 Comparable Teams: Packers, 49ers, Bears, & Colts

- All 4 of these teams have talented WRs who will compete at a high level for their team's vacated targets
- There can still be players that rise above the rest and outperform their ADP (like Parker Washington did)
- My best for each team would be Christian Watson, Ricky Pearsall, Rome Odunze, and Josh Downs

[Browns, Titans, and Raiders]

These were three of the worst offenses in the league last season, with very few receivers having fantasy success

2026 Comparable Team: Dolphins

- Vegas has the Dolphins projected to win 4.5 games next season, while having the worst WR corps in the league
- The leading receiver of this team probably won’t be fantasy relevant (unless it’s Achane of course)

Year 3 WR week has officially begun for #ReceptionPerception with a handful of super fascinating players 👀

Subscribers will now find RP route charts, data and my evaluations on the following 5 incoming Year 3 WRs, with more to come this week:

Rome Odunze
Brian Thomas Jr.
Marvin Harrison Jr.
Ladd McConkey
Xavier Worthy

Injuries and correctable flaws haunted this entire class but I remain bullish on many of what these players have shown on film and can be in the league. As I mentioned, expect more Year 3 WRs added to the site by the end of this week.

Bhayshul Tuten is going to win the Jaguars backfield during the off-season.

In his rookie season, Tuten wasn’t a consistent feature.

When he did feature (min 10 touches), he delivered over 13 fantasy points per game.

He saved his best performance for the Wildcard Round, where he ripped off consecutive 10+ yard gains. For me, this put to bed some of the concerns around Tuten’s lack of explosiveness.

Over the season, Tuten was used in short yardage situations on just above 20% of his carries.

And he was very successful in that context, recording the 5th highest success rate amongst RBs - granted Chris Rodriguez was 4th.

The Jaguars ran the 6th most run players per game - 29.

Sure, there is history between Liam Coen and Chris Rodriguez. But don’t forget that Coen also drafted Bhayshul Tuten.

This week we're rolling through the wide receiver position -- from Chase, Nacua, and JSN to value plays and volatile upside swings.

WR1 tiers. Bargain hunting. Questions that matter.

The Go Route remains one of the most important routes in football because it stresses a defense vertically and forces defensive backs to defend every inch of the field

While many view it as simply running straight downfield, successful execution requires technique, timing, acceleration, ball tracking, and an understanding of leverage

From a coaching perspective:

• An explosive release and first three steps are critical to winning off the line of scrimmage

• Receivers must maintain vertical leverage, stay on their line, and avoid drifting toward the sideline too early

• The ability to stack the defender after gaining a step creates the best throwing window for the quarterback

• Proper ball tracking, late hands, and finishing through contact are essential to completing explosive plays

• The Go Route is not only a deep shot concept but is also used to stretch coverage, clear out safeties, and create opportunities for other routes underneath

From a scouting perspective:

• The route provides one of the best evaluations of a receiver’s long speed, acceleration, and vertical separation ability

• Scouts study how efficiently a receiver releases, stacks defenders, maintains leverage, and tracks the football downfield

• It also showcases body control, play strength through contact, catch-point competitiveness, and finishing ability

• Against man coverage, it reveals true vertical winning ability. Against zone coverage, it highlights route discipline, spatial awareness, and understanding of defensive leverage

The best vertical threats are not always the fastest players on the field. They are the receivers who consistently create separation, track the football naturally, and finish explosive plays when the opportunity presents itself
