"Perhaps the most underrated player in fantasy, Meyers enters 2025 eyeing his fifth consecutive top-30 fantasy campaign. The veteran is one of 10 receivers with 67-plus receptions and 800-plus receiving yards in each of the past four seasons and he peaked with career highs in targets, catches, yards and end zone targets (11) in 2024. The 28-year-old has dealt with shaky QB play in recent seasons, but is in a better spot this season with Geno Smith under center and Pete Carroll coaching the team. Second only to Brock Bowers in target priority, Meyers figures to again push for WR3/flex numbers, but will likely be undervalued on draft day."


"Meyers was the only thing working in the Raiders' offense for the majority of the game, as he connected with Aidan O'Connell for four receptions of at least 20 yards -- the longest of which went for a 25-yard score. That was enough to bring him over 1,000 receiving yards in a season for the first time in his career. Meyers will enter 2025 in the final year of his three-year contract with the Raiders, and he should remain a key part of the offense."

"Walker was a healthy scratch until making his NFL debut Week 7 against Tampa Bay. The highlight of his campaign was a 21-yard touchdown reception against the Giants for his first NFL catch in Week 15. The vast majority of Walker's work came on special teams, as he logged 153 snaps with that unit as opposed to 55 on offense. There is room for Walker to move up in the wideout pecking order in Baltimore, and he'll look to grow as an offensive contributor next season."

"Pickett was traded to the Browns after spending his first three NFL seasons with the Steelers and Eagles. The 2022 first-round pick was serviceable in limited work in relief of Jalen Hurts last season, but struggled as the Steelers' starter during his first two years in the league (6.3 YPA, 13 pass TDs, 13 INTs). Pickett showed some rushing ability as a rookie (55-237-3), but followed with a 42-54-1 line in 2023. He will compete with Joe Flacco and rookies Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel for the Browns' starting job, but even if called on to play, Pickett is a long shot to make a leap to fantasy relevance. He's only a bench option in superflex."


"Cleveland traded for Pickett in a deal that sent Dorian Thompson-Robinson to the Eagles in March, but the organization appears unwilling to commit to giving the former Steeler $22.1 million in guaranteed money by picking up his option. That decision may have been influenced in part by the Browns adding two quarterbacks -- Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders -- via the draft, and the team also re-signed veteran Joe Flacco in mid-April. All four are expected to compete for the Browns' starting QB role during training camp, though Deshaun Watson may have a chance of reclaiming that job when he eventually returns from a ruptured Achilles."
