Fantasy Football Rankings: WRs – 21-40

Davante Adams, WR, Rams. Bye: 11.

Davante Adams was a touchdown machine last year. Matthew Stafford will continue to look for him in the end zone, though Adams is 34.

Ladd McConkey, WR, Chargers. Bye: 7.

Justin Herbert had a great rapport with Ladd McConkey in his rookie year, but other receivers were added to remove targets.

Luther Burden, WR, Bears. Bye: 10.

Luther Burden got off to a slow start in his rookie year, but was hot to close out the season. His stock has soared with D.J. Moore departing. Burden suffered a groin injury and will be out for about a month. He may play Week 1, so this injury may not matter very much, but it's still far from ideal.

Zay Flowers, WR, Ravens. Bye: 13.

Zay Flowers is coming off his best season. He could be even better in 2026 if Lamar Jackson remains healthy.

Rashee Rice, WR, Chiefs. Bye: 5.

Rashee Rice could always get into trouble again, and Patrick Mahomes' injury is a concern.

Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Panthers. Bye: 5.

Tetairoa McMillan does not study film or work hard, so he could be someone who regresses during his NFL career.

Mike Evans, WR, 49ers. Bye: 8.

Mike Evans finally failed to reach 1,000 yards. He played in just eight games, but looked good at times late in the year. He should do well in San Francisco. Evans suffered a leg injury in training camp. It's not considered overly serious, but it's a reminder that Evans has been very prone to soft-tissue injuries over the years, and now he's in his mid-30s.

Brian Thomas, WR, Jaguars. Bye: 7.

Brian Thomas was seen as a raw receiver with tons of upside heading into his rookie campaign. He was incredible, but was far worse in 2025.

Parker Washington, WR, Jaguars. Bye: 7.

Parker Washington transformed into Trevor Lawrence's top weapon down the stretch. He's used as the Cooper Kupp/Chris Godwin in Liam Coen's Jacksonville offense. Washington has been Trevor Lawrence's top target during training camp. While it's difficult to trust training camp reports, this is something I suspected would happen, so it's nice to get some confirmation.

Rome Odunze, WR, Bears. Bye: 10.

Rome Odunze had some big performances to start the year, but slowed down late in the year because of injuries.

Quentin Johnston, WR, Chargers. Bye: 7.

Quentin Johnston finally stopped being a bust. He had a solid third year, which would have been even better had the offensive line remained healthy.

Courtland Sutton, WR, Broncos. Bye: 10.

Courtland Sutton had a decent year, but he was held back by Bo Nix's mediocrity. He now has to share targets with Jaylen Waddle.

Matthew Golden, WR, Packers. Bye: 11.

Matthew Golden didn't do much as a rookie. Perhaps he'll be more involved with experience and Romeo Doubs' departure.

Jayden Reed, WR, Packers. Bye: 11.

Jayden Reed is lining up in two-receiver sets in training camp. This is huge. Reed hardly played in two-receiver sets when Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks were on the team. Reed's upside was capped as a result, but it sounds like he's being unleashed this season.

K.C. Concepcion, WR, Browns. Bye: 11.

K.C. Concepcion handled the opening punt return in the initial preseason game, so I was concerned about his playing time, but he was on the field often with Deshaun Watson. He saw more targets than anyone (4), and he showed some burst, especially on his yards after the catch on his touchdown score.

Zachariah Branch, WR, Falcons. Bye: 11.

Zachariah Branch has reportedly been a nightmare for opposing cornerbacks in training camp. I was already a fan of Branch because he's a spark plug who can go the distance whenever he touches the ball, so it was nice to see that he's also thriving in practice thus far.

De'Zhaun Stribling, WR, 49ers. Bye: 8.

De'Zhaun Stribling had a monster game, catching six passes. He made one reception that was a beautiful catch downfield near the sideline, where he somehow stayed in bounds. He made an even crazier play after that, converting a third down by keeping his toe in bounds and his heel off the ground, which would have put him out of bounds. The play was challenged, and the announcers even thought that he stepped out of bounds, but Stribling somehow remained in bounds because his heel never touched the ground. Stribling looked great in this game, and remember, he battled Tennessee's starters, so this result definitely should be factored in as a major positive for Stribling heading into the season.

Jordan Addison, WR, Vikings. Bye: 6.

Jordan Addison was arrested this offseason, though the charges were dropped. His numbers should increase with Kyler Murray replacing J.J. McCarthy.

Jaylen Waddle, WR, Broncos. Bye: 10.

Jaylen Waddle had a disappointing year considering that Tyreek Hill barely played. He's in a crowded receiver group in Denver.

Alec Pierce, WR, Colts. Bye: 13.

Alec Pierce was just an inconsistent threat prior to 2025, but he became the team's top receiver. His targets will increase with Michael Pittman Jr. gone. Pierce has been placed on the PUP list. His foot injury is troubling, so he's probably best to avoid. There's no timetable for Pierce's return, according to Shane Steichen. It's extremely difficult to trust Pierce with his ankle injury. This could be a similar situation to what Chris Godwin endured last season.
