Latest WR Updates
Rashee Rice will be a polarizing player in drafts now that he's been sentenced for his role in a car crash. There's been conflicting reports about a possible suspension, with ESPN's Adam Schefter suggesting a multi-game ban is likely and others like Mark Maske of The Washington Post citing sources that say it's premature to conclude Rice will be suspended. Chiefs' beat writer Matt Derrick was told by people within the organization that they believe Rice could be forced to sit out two to four games. I always encourage people to follow Football Guys' Drew Davenport, who does an excellent job analyzing all aspects of legal cases that involve fantasy players. From my view, I still want to get Rice on as many teams as possible this season. I'm willing to find a replacement for the opening weeks, if it means I'll get a potential fantasy WR1 in the fourth round or later. It all comes down to how much risk you're willing to accept.
After missing 10 games last season due to a dislocated ankle, Chris Godwin carried some extra risk with his fantasy profile in 2025. His outlook took a turn for the worst when ESPN's Jenna Laine recently reported that Godwin underwent a second procedure on his ankle this spring. The veteran is currently on the PUP list and his status for the start of the season is unknown. When you combine that with Bucs' first-rounder Emeka Egbuka shining in camp, it's forced me to move Godwin down into the WR3/flex range with Egbuka only a couple spots behind him. As I said on the Fantasy Forecast a few weeks ago, Egbuka is one of the best values in fantasy drafts.
You may notice that a couple of overqualified No. 2 receivers — Rome Odunze and Jaylen Waddle — continue to move up my rankings. The combination of talent, opportunity and positive training camp buzz points towards them taking on bigger roles this year and possibility emerging as their team's top target if the older veterans on their rosters (DJ Moore, Tyreek Hill) drop off in any way. Odunze and Waddle are safe fantasy WR3s with very high ceilings.

Social media reacts to Nets signing Ricky Council IV to one-year deal
The Brooklyn Nets have had one of the more interesting offseasons with the way that they approached the 2025 NBA Draft and free-agency as a whole. Brooklyn not only used five first-round picks in the Draft, but they also traded forward Cam Johnson to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for forward Michael Porter Jr. and a 2032 first-round pick. On Friday, the Nets continued making tweaks to the roster by signing former Philadelphia 76ers forward Ricky Council IV to a one-year contract, per ESPN's Shams Charania. Council, 23, is coming off a 2024-25 season with the 76ers in which he averaged 7.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game while shooting 38.2% from the field and 25.8% from three-point land. With Council being added to the roster, most likely to compete for a spot in training camp, the Nets will be at 19 players on the team, including forward Ziaire Williams and center Day'Ron Sharpe, whose re-signings are still pending, per Spotrac. As of this writing, Brooklyn has not re-signed guard Cam Thomas, meaning that the roster could be at 20 players soon enough. Either way, here is how social media reacted to the Nets signing Council on Friday: What Ricky Council IV Brings To The Nets Ricky Council IV Highlights Day'Ron Sharpe Welcomes Ricky Council IV To The Team Ricky Council IV Highlights Ricky Council IV Reaction Ricky Council IV Reaction Ricky Council IV Reaction Ricky Council IV Reaction Ricky Council IV Reaction Ricky Council IV Reaction This article originally appeared on Nets Wire: Social media reacts to Nets signing Ricky Council IV to one-year deal
