Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. was unable to find much success this past season. To be fair, the Raiders' offense was horrible as a unit, but Thornton barely showed up on the stat sheet. He finished the season with 10 receptions for 135 receiving yards and zero touchdowns in 13 games. The 24-year-old might've missed his opportunity with the Raiders adding some reinforcements this offseason. They signed Jalen Nailor and Dareke Young in free agency, while adding Malik Benson in the sixth round of this year's draft. Thornton could fall to fourth on the depth chart, which is not a good spot, given Brock Bowers eats a ton of targets at tight end as well. He's young enough to hold onto in dynasty leagues, but Thornton having a consistent role in 2026 seems unlikely.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson was expected to have a breakout campaign this past season. The assumption was that Wilson was going to get a ton of chances after George Pickens was dealt to the Dallas Cowboys. Instead, Wilson finished with 12 receptions for 166 receiving yards and two touchdowns in 13 games. It's not going to get easier for Wilson to find opportunities with Michael Pittman Jr. joining the offense this offseason. Also, the Steelers selected Germie Bernard in the second-round of this year's draft. Now, Wilson might fall to fourth or fifth on the depth chart after these moves this offseason. He's only 25 years old, but dynasty managers likely missed their chance to get value for him when he was hyped last year. Wilson will probably play a depth role going forward.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Luke McCaffrey is falling on the depth chart after an unimpressive sophomore campaign. McCaffrey was off to a solid start to the season, but a broken collarbone cut his season short. He finished with 11 receptions for 203 receiving yards and three touchdowns in nine games last season. The former third-round pick has fewer than 30 receptions and less than 400 receiving yards during his first two years in the league. The Commanders brought in Dyami Brown, Van Jefferson, and drafted Antonio Williams during this year's draft. There's more competition now, and McCaffrey hasn't done enough to push himself ahead of those players on the depth chart. The 25-year-old could very well get lost in the shuffle and is someone who doesn't need to be rostered in dynasty formats anymore.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Tanner Koziol is likely to begin the season as the third-string option at his position. The Jaguars selected Koziol in the fifth-round of this year's draft out of Houston. This past season, Koziol hauled in 74 receptions for 727 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 13 games at Houston. That was actually a down year for Koziol, who hauled in 94 receptions at Ball State in 2024. The ball skills seem to be there, but there are questions as to whether Koziol can be a reliable blocking tight end. He'll also need to fight for playing time with Brenton Strange and Nate Boerkircher likely ahead of him on the depth chart. Unless an injury happens, Koziol is unlikely to have value right away. He could be a potential stash option for dynasty managers in need of help at tight end.
