AJ Brown to the Patriots! Myles Garrett to the Rams! What’s the fantasy spin for all teams involved? I joined @TomPelissero and @judybattista on The Insiders to break it all down!
Joined @RapSheet and @TomPelissero on The Insiders to break down all things Raiders!
- Kubiak’s effect
- Mendoza year 1 expectations
- What it means for Jeanty and Bowers
- Fantasy expectations!
Which Day 3 Penn State running back has the better fantasy career?
Nicholas Singleton - Titans - 165th overall
Kaytron Allen - Commanders - 187th overall
Zachariah Branch
- speedy, slot receiver
- a lot behind the line of scrimmage
- YAC guy
- quick burst and quick separation
- weapon over the middle
- can win vs hand coverage and excels vs zone
Love the landing spot with targets up for grabs behind London/Pitts
For fantasy, I would bet on his talent in rookie drafts likely in the 2nd round but I’d be ok in late 1st
Can compete with Xavier Legette for snaps opposite of TMac. Year 1 likely starts out as just a late round best ball guy, but has waiver wire appeal in redraft
Malachi Fields
- BIG WR (6’4, 218)
- Huge catch radius
- high point/contested catch type
- X receiver who is best out wide
- field stretcher who flashes hands late
- red zone weapon
- nice comeback routes
- limited route tree. A lot vertical
- not a YAC guy, lacks fluidity
Antonio Williams
- YAC guy who is very shifty after the catch
- beat in short/intermediate game. Lots of targets behind LOS in college
- best in slot
- can win across middle
- quick separator
- more quick than fast
Reminded me of a faster Wan’Dale Robinson
Giants adding Notre Dame WR Malachi Fields to an offense with Jaxson Dart, Malik Nabers, Cam Skattebo, and Isaiah Likely.
Who's stopping Big Blue in 2026?
Germie Bernard
- reliable WR. Good route runner, soft hands
- chain mover. Bama often went to him of 3rd/4th down
- finds soft spot vs zone
- can line up inside, outside even in backfield
- better after the catch than field stretcher
- can generate touches for him
One concern I had for Bernard is that he’d be a better real life weapon than fantasy (kinda like Jayden Reed)
On a Steelers team that has Metcalf, Pittman, + targets the RBs/TEs at a high rate - I think that’s exactly the case. Just a late round dart throw in best ball (imo)
Browns suddenly have some options at WR but I think their best 3 WR set would be Boston, Jeudy and Concepcion in the slot
For fantasy? With either Shedeur or Watson at QB, they’re all reserve round options. Better in best ball types
