Raiders Beat: No one standing out for WR3 role

Aug 03, 2026

Jalen Nailor and Tre Tucker are the top two wideouts in the room, but it's an open race for WR3. So far, the Raiders have given first-team reps to Dont'e Thornton Jr., Jack Bech and Malik Benson. The concern is, no one has stood out.

Fantasy Impact:

The story wen ton to say that during the team period, the majority of quarterback Kirk Cousins' targets have gone to tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer, and his checkdowns to running back Ashton Jeanty. It's still early and someone could emerge at some point during camp, but for now, the wide receiver room continues to be a weak spot on the roster.

Malik Washington is clearly Malik Willis #1 target in the Miami Dolphins offense at this time

Related players: Chris Bell, Caleb Douglas, Jalen Tolbert, Tutu Atwell

Fantasy Impact:

Schad added they had a great connection on display this morning at camp. It's worth noting because someone will need to catch the ball for the Dolphins this season, despite missing a big-time WR name on the roster. Schad added Washington could end up the 1A or 1B when Bell is back, but either way it seems Washington should be poised for a big role in the offense.

Giants Beat: TE Isaiah Likely looks like the second option

Isaiah Likely is more of a utility weapon than a traditional tight end. The Giants move him throughout the formation, and he has displayed clear early chemistry with Dart. Likely attacks all three levels of the defense, and the Giants appear intent on featuring him.

You hope a receiver steps up. In the meantime, Likely appears to be the No. 2 option behind Malik Nabers.

Fantasy Impact:

We rank Likely 11th among our TEs and the potential is certainly there for him to finish in that range, making him a potential target later in drafts if you're waiting on the position or just lookin for a quality backup. John Paulsen points out that in the 19 career games where Likely's played at least 40 snaps, he has averaged 3.5-42-0.53, or 9.1 fantasy points per game, which are low-end TE1 numbers.

Cardinals Beat: Jeremiyah Love, Tyler Allgeier will split RB1 work

Jeremiyah Love was listed as the No. 2 running back on the initial depth chart of the season, causing a mini-uproar on social media. But Love ended up being the first running back taking snaps with the starters when 11-on-11 started on Sunday.

Related players: Tyler Allgeier

Fantasy Impact:

Writer Darren Urban added that Allgeier still got plenty of work with the first team, and, was sure to point out he feels Love and Allgeier are going to split RB1 duties, regardless of what the depth chart says. While it may be frustrating to hear for Love owners, it shouldn't be a surprise. Allgeier was a very effective back in that role alongside Bijan Robinson last season in Atlanta. Allgeier makes for a nice target later in drafts for those taking the Zero RB approach.
