Texas A&M wide receiver K.C. Concepcion is considered to be one of the better prospects at his position in the 2026 draft class and has a chance to hear his name called as early as the end of the first round later this week. Across 13 games for the Aggies in 2025, the 21-year-old recorded 61 receptions for 919 yards and nine touchdowns. Concepcion is known as an elusive route-runner in the short and intermediate areas of the field who is difficult to tackle in open space. However, he's undersized at 5'11" and 196 lbs., which leads to some questions about his ability to produce at the catch point in the NFL. Still, Concepcion's strengths make him an intriguing dynasty prospect. Depending on where he ends up being drafted, Concepcion could make an immediate impact in the NFL and offers some long-term upside as well. RotoBaller currently ranks Concepcion as the fifth-best wide receiver in the first-year player pool.

Vanderbilt tight end Eli Stowers is considered one of the top tight ends in the 2026 draft class and should come off the board at some point on day two of the upcoming 2026 draft. Across 12 games for the Commodores in 2025, the 23-year-old recorded 62 receptions for 769 yards and four touchdowns. With a 45.5" vertical jump, Stowers also profiles as an elite athlete at the tight end position. His blocking ability is considered a major weak point in his game, which could be a reason why he might slip down the draft board. Stowers might also struggle to earn a true lead tight end role in the NFL right away without rapid improvement as a blocker. Still, he offers clear upside due to his athleticism and has already shown the ability to produce as a receiver. Stowers currently profiles as the second-best dynasty tight end in first-year player pools, behind only Kenyon Sadiq.

Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard said that wide receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) underwent ankle surgery, per ESPN's Stephen Holder. Pierce reportedly played through pain in the ankle last season. The surgery will keep him from participating in OTAs, but Pierce should be ready to go for training camp. The 25-year-old had the best year of his career in 2025, recording 47 receptions for 1,003 yards and six touchdowns on 84 targets across 15 games. The Colts rewarded Pierce earlier this offseason with a four-year, $114 million extension. The team also traded away veteran wideout Michael Pittman Jr., which could mean Pierce will be expected to expand his route tree beyond his usual downfield role. While it sounds as though Pierce should have a normal training camp, this ankle ailment will be something for fantasy managers to monitor heading into 2026.

Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) has been a riser late in NFL Draft season, with some experts now projecting that he will come off the board somewhere in the middle of the first round later this week. The 21-year-old recorded 61 catches for 711 yards and eight touchdowns across nine games for the Sun Devils in 2025. Tyson missed time with a hamstring injury, and hamstring issues have bothered him throughout the pre-draft process as well. Tyson also suffered three torn ligaments in his knee in 2022, which caused him to miss the majority of his sophomore season at Arizona State. Still, despite the injury concerns, Tyson is thought of as one of the top wide receivers in the 2026 draft class. He showed off what he can do in a fully healthy campaign in 2024, when he recorded 75 receptions for 1,101 yards and 10 touchdowns across 12 games. In dynasty formats, Tyson profiles as the third-best wide receiver in first-year player pools behind only Makai Lemon and Carnell Tate.
