Has Omar Cooper Jr. Solidified a Spot in Three-Receiver Sets?
ESPN's Rich Cimini writes that New York Jets rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. was the team's most impressive rookie during spring workouts, "all but solidifying a spot in the three-receiver package." Cooper has proven to be a smooth route-runner who has adjusted nicely to an NFL-style offense. Cimini thinks that the first-rounder (30th overall) will be even better when the pads come on during training camp due to his physical style and run-after-the-catch abilities. In his final season with the Indiana Hoosiers in 2025, Cooper caught 69 passes for 937 yards and a career-high 13 touchdowns in 16 games, and he led the Big Ten with 21.2 yards per reception in his junior year in 2024. Because of his ability to line up anywhere on the football field, Cooper has the potential to become New York's WR2 sooner rather than later in his first year in the NFL behind Garrett Wilson, who is returning from a season-ending knee injury in 2025. The upside is clear with Cooper, but in an offense being led by quarterback Geno Smith, who led the NFL in interceptions with the Las Vegas Raiders last year, consistency could be a glaring issue. RotoBaller currently has Cooper ranked as the No. 57 fantasy WR as he heads into his first year in the NFL.

Kenyon Sadiq Expected to be Ready for Training Camp
New York Jets rookie tight end Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) missed organized team activities and minicamp after having hernia surgery that stemmed from an injury in college, but the Jets said they were aware of it during the pre-draft process earlier this year. Sadiq is expected to be ready for training camp this summer, although he'll be a bit behind, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Offensive coordinator Frank Reich envisions the University of Oregon product as a mismatch because of his speed and explosiveness, so he should have a role in his first year in the NFL alongside second-year TE Mason Taylor. The 16th overall pick in this year's NFL draft is an athletic freak at 6-foot-3 and 241 pounds and will be a popular selection in rookie-only dynasty/keeper leagues, but fantasy managers in redraft formats might want to temper expectations a bit in an offense with veteran quarterback Geno Smith leading the charge. At RotoBaller, Sadiq is ranked as the No. 17 fantasy TE. There's obvious pass-catching upside due to his athleticism, but there are plenty of questions as to how involved he'll be every week.

DJ Moore to be a Go-to Target in his First Season in Buffalo?
The Buffalo Bills attempted to upgrade quarterback Josh Allen's receiving corps this offseason by acquiring wide receiver DJ Moore from the Chicago Bears, and NFL.com's Nick Shook suggests that Moore could be the missing link between the Bills and an AFC Championship appearance. "Just really getting to know him, we're locker mates, and to have that relationship that we already have, it's a pretty seamless fit. I'm excited to continue to get to work with him. He's going to be a huge help for us this next season and seasons to come," Allen said. The Bills have lacked an experienced, proven wideout since they traded Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans before the 2024 season. Moore will combine with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Tyrell Shavers, Joshua Palmer, and Gabe Davis in his new digs in 2026. The 29-year-old Moore had the worst season of his career in 2025, catching just 50 passes for 682 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. With less competition for targets in Buffalo, he should be in the mix for a bounce-back season in 2026. Fantasy managers should target him as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3/flex in upcoming drafts.

Tank Bigsby Well-Positioned to Handle Primary Backup Duties in Philadelphia
The Philadelphia Eagles traded for running back Tank Bigsby after Week 1 of the 2025 season, and while much of his contribution from that point forward came in the return game, a full offseason with the team could have the fourth-year back in line for primary backup responsibilities behind Saquon Barkley in one of fantasy's most valuable handcuff roles. The rest of the Eagles' running backs room features a diverse set of skills from Will Shipley, Dameon Pierce, and Elijah Mitchell, but at 6'0" and 213 pounds, Bigsby is perhaps best equipped to handle the closest to a full workload should the 29-year-old Barkley miss extended time. That size could also help to keep Barkley fresh throughout the year by potentially taking a handful of between-the-tackles runs off his plate each game, a consideration that should be made with the three-time Pro Bowler having handled more than 800 touches over the past two seasons. Should new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion opt to sprinkle in more touches for Bigsby, the former Jaguar could find a sliver of standalone value, but even as strictly injury insurance, Bigsby is a high-value dynasty stash and worthwhile trade target behind an aging bell cow with a history of durability concerns, in one of the league's run-heaviest offenses.
