Award-Winning Fantasy Football Advice

The Falcons have agreed to a three-year extension with TE Kyle Pitts worth $54 million, according to multiple reports. That includes $36 million in guarantees. Atlanta applied the franchise tag in March to keep Pitts from hitting the free-agent market.

The NFL has informed teams that it will not hold a Supplemental Draft this season, closing QB Brendan Sorsby's path to playing in the NFL in 2026. He'll now be eligible for the 2027 NFL Draft. Sorsby applied after the NCAA ruled him ineligible for the college season because of gambling violations, including his admission that he bet on Indiana while redshirting there as a freshman, along with more evidence linking him to proxy betting and bets on other sports. A big year at Texas Tech could have made him a potential first-round pick in 2027, but now he will likely spend the year preparing for the draft instead of playing football.

Jets QB Geno Smith is under police investigation following assault allegations made by a woman on social media over the weekend. Davie (Fla.) police initially said the case was closed with no arrests but later clarified that the incident is still being reviewed before a report can be released. Neither Smith nor the Jets have addressed the situation. No charges have been filed as of now, but that doesn't preclude the league from investigating the incident under the personal conduct policy. We'll keep you updated on any further developments. For now, we're not adjusting Smith's spot in the QB rankings.

Texans insider Aaron Wilson believes the team is building a "smash mouth" offense "built around bell cow RB David Montgomery." Wilson notes that Houston's running game last year, led by RB Woody Marks, wasn't good enough. The team responded by trading for Montgomery and then giving him a two-year, $16.5 million deal. But just how big a role will Montgomery play this season?

Let’s just let ESPN Browns reporter Daniel Oyefusi deliver the primary info: “The Browns drafted wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston in April, but no Cleveland wideout was targeted more than [Isaiah Bond] this spring.” That’s especially worth noting for two reasons:

1. Cleveland drafted Concepcion in the first round and Boston in the second. So the team clearly not only likes them but should be incentivized to develop them quickly into key contributors.
2. Although Bond arrived as an undrafted free agent, he’s not your typical UDFA.

Our prospect guru Shane Hallam deemed Bond a Round 4-5 prospect who “certainly could have been a Day 2 pick” with more college production. The Athletic’s Dane Brugler rated him a third-round talent and the No. 10 WR prospect in the class.

Bond went undrafted because he got arrested on sexual-assault allegations just two weeks before the draft. A Texas grand jury determined in August, though, that the case didn’t merit an indictment. Bond subsequently signed with Cleveland

The Colts expect Tyler Warren to take a step forward in Year 2, according to Mike Chappell of Fox 59. HC Shane Steichen said Warren is still growing and specifically pointed to improvement “coming in and out of breaks”. QB Daniel Jones said Warren is already “making a jump” this offseason. Warren finished TE11 with 11.1 PPR points per game, the 10th-most ever by a rookie TE, so another step could push him into the top three at the position, especially in PPR.

Washington presents one of the most interesting backfields to watch for potential 2026 fantasy value. Why? The Commanders ranked fifth in the league in scoring and seventh in total yards with a healthy QB Jayden Daniels in 2024. That team also ranked top 5 in rushing attempts, rushing yards, yards per attempt, and rushing TDs. And although the QB helped those numbers, Washington RBs also tallied the league’s 11th-most PPR points that season. That group found Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler finishing 30th and 32nd, respectively, in PPR points per game. Even last year’s struggling Commanders offense -- with just seven games from Daniels -- still finished ninth in rushing attempts, fourth in yards, fifth in yards per carry and eighth in TDs. This year’s backfield swapped out Ekeler and Chris Rodriguez for multiple new candidates but lacks role clarity as we head toward summer. That’s why it’s important to track the buzz from practices.

Lions TE Sam LaPorta is expected to be "full go" for training camp, according to Tim Twentyman of the team's official website. LaPorta is working his way back from November back surgery and has been limited in practices this month.

The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt calls WR Adonai Mitchell one of the Jets' "biggest stars" so far this offseason. Mitchell has drawn praise from other media members, as well as teammates and coaches.
