Jordan hasn’t had a robust free-agency market, which is unsurprising as he’s a 37-year-old, but he did notch 10.5 sacks last season. He’ll likely sign later in free agency after he stops counting against the compensatory formula. The Chiefs are the first team we’ve directly heard interested in him, but he’s been suggested as a stopgap by several beats on other teams as well. The market should be decent for Jordan when he’s ready to make a decision.22 March 2026
If this is starting to remind you a lot of last offseason’s Jaguars running back scuttlebutt, well, it should. There were no fantasy-trustworthy options for the majority of the offseason before Travis Etienne eventually emerged as the surefire No. 1 back and Tank Bigsby was dispatched to the Eagles. At least this year’s room only has two options instead of three — for now — with Tuten and Chris Rodriguez both potential leaders of a committee. Whoever wins that job has plenty of fantasy j ...22 March 2026
The Vikings gave Van Demark a fully-guaranteed $4.2 million contract. He’ll likely be Minnesota’s swing option, and it says something about the health of Christian Darrisaw — who could not be reliably counted on towards the end of last season — that the Vikings felt inclined to invest this kind of money into a potential solution for him.22 March 2026
From the outside, it’s been a very puzzling free agency for Garoppolo. He was a rumored fit in Arizona and Miami, and it seemed like it was assumed that he’d return to the Rams when the Cardinals inked Gardner Minshew. But it’s been weeks since then and there’s been no clarity on his status. It sure doesn’t seem like there are better options for him out there than returning as the Rams backup — perhaps the Cardinals are considering trading Jacoby Brissett? — but the report of a flu ...

He also adds that a Day 2 selection is in play. Neither Davante Adams nor Puka Nacua are likely going to see their 2026 production threatened by a rookie wideout, but Adams is in the final year of his contract and the depth at the position hasn’t shown much for the Rams. Konata Mumpfield, who played outside while Adams was dealing with a hamstring injury late in the season, would figure to lose major dynasty stock if the Rams spent an early pick on a wideout.22 March 2026
Ferguson dealt with a late-season hamstring injury that masked how his snaps and targets were growing late in the year. The Rams have enough weaponry that it’s hard to believe Ferguson would be a consistent TE1 this year without injuries ahead of him, but we could absolutely see TE1 games from him in his second season.22 March 2026
Hard to blame him for coming to this conclusion given how injury-cursed MarShawn Lloyd’s career has been thus far, and Schneidman casts Chris Brooks as “a fine situational No. 3 back.” One thing worth noting is that this is regarded as a fairly shallow running back class, so it’s possible that the Packers would have to use a premium pick on one if they wanted a ready-to-play backup in 2026. Schneidman’s “best guess” is that they’ll use a “middle of the draft” pick on one.22 March 2026
In other words, he expects Flournoy to confine KaVonate Turpin to a gadget role. Flournoy produced in his limited chances last year and, if a surprise George Pickens trade comes to fruition, could have real fantasy upside in 2026. As is, he’ll have WR5/WR6 appeal in what profiles as the third or fourth option (alongside tight end Jake Ferguson) in a good passing offense.22 March 2026
The Eagles were reportedly interested in Greenard near the opening of free agency, and a few weeks later they continue to be the only team publicly connected to him. It’s possible that Greenard is a pivot option off of A.J. Brown because he’d require a new contract and the Eagles are dealing with a challenging salary cap situation. We’re a little surprised we haven’t seen more interest in Greenard, even off a down 2025 season.22 March 2026
It sure seems like the Eagles would have to sell lower than they’d like on McKee if they were to move on, but it’s possible they decide to simply bite the bullet on that as he enters the final year of his rookie contract. McKee has been a rumored object of affection for Jets OC Frank Reich, and New York’s backup job remains open.22 March 2026
Popper lists Harris as a starter and notes that with Keenan Allen unsigned, he should be expected to see more work. Harris’ involvement steadily picked up in the second half of the season and it’s possible he finds fantasy relevance in 2026. However, Quentin Johnston picked up the pace last year and figures to be involved as well.22 March 2026
The lack of investment at running back really stands out for the Commanders now that we’re through early free agency and they have “Bill” Croskey-Merritt and Rachaad White (on a one-year deal) tabbed as their top backs. Love will threaten fantasy RB1 production right away, so his landing spot is of particular interest to us. It does feel like Love’s floor will be around the 7-10 range in the draft, and the Commanders would certainly offer him a spot where he’d be assured a big workload ...22 March 2026
This is seemingly contingent on Keenan Allen not returning, as Popper notes that Allen and McConkey occupy similar areas of the field and says he believes the Chargers should move on from Allen. However, The Athletic’s Chargers beat reporter notes that “I can see McDaniel maximizing McConkey’s shiftiness and yards-after-the-catch ability on some of these same concepts.” It’s possible that McConkey resurfaces in the WR2 conversation this year.22 March 2026
Dugar thinks McIntosh, who tore his ACL in August and missed the 2025 season, is “as talented as any running back on the roster” if he makes a full recovery. There have been worse desperation fliers in deep dynasty leagues, though we’d want to see if Seattle comes out of the draft without a running back before we said McIntosh must be rostered.22 March 2026
Having missed out on Andy Dalton and Carson Wentz — tough scenes — Cimini notes that you can’t rule out another trade for the Jets to acquire a backup quarterback. But just of the available quarterbacks, these two make some sense. It’s the first bit of potential interest in Rush we’ve seen since he was released 10 days ago.22 March 2026
Diabate profiles as a run-stuff linebacker — his PFF grades in run defense have been his selling trait — and still has room to grow as he turns 25 this offseason. He’ll compete for a role in the Titans linebacker room after being non-tendered by the Browns this offseason.21 March 2026
Per ESPN’s Brady Henderson, Smith-Njigba’s 2027 salary is fully guaranteed and should make him roughly $23.85 million. Evidently, the 24-year-old wide receiver hit some sort of pay scale escalator with his “one initial-ballot Pro Bowl.” Overall, Smith-Njigba has earned one first-team All-Pro spot and made two Pro Bowls through his three NFL seasons. He led the league with 1,793 receiving yards last year. Henderson previously suggested that the fifth-year option could be used to buy both ...21 March 2026
The Eagles signed former Buccaneers safety and special teams player J.T. Gray as well. Both players are on one-year deals. Epps logged 250 defensive snaps and 121 special teams snaps while totaling 18 solo tackles and two TFLs last year. Gray played on 83 special teams snaps playing for the Broncos and Buccaneers last year. Epps can be expected to contribute defensively, but Gray’s ticket to the active roster is likely via special teams.21 March 2026
Franks logged 15 snaps offensively last year, but earned zero targets. He logged 283 special teams snaps and racked up nine special teams tackles, ranking second among Falcons players. He is likely to operate in a similar capacity on the Panthers this season.
