  • NYJ Tight End #83
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Conklin has been a model of consistency over the last four years, most recently catching 51-of-67 targets for 449 yards and four touchdowns in 2024. The Chargers have allowed last year’s starter, Hayden Hurst, to test free agency this offseason. Should they sign Conklin, he would ostensibly assume a fantasy-relevant starting role.
  • FA Wide Receiver #1
    According to Schultz, the visit between Diggs and the Patriots “was more of a ‘get to know you’ and ‘where you’re at medically’ type of meeting.” Diggs is still recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in Week 8 last season but had a line of 47-496-3 before his injury. He’ll turn 32 midway through next season, but assuming he’s healthy, Diggs would make for an immediate upgrade to a Patriots offense that’s short on talent at receiver.
  • FA Linebacker #17
    Baker was dealt to the Titans last season in a trade with the Seahawks and wound up appearing in five games for them. He appeared in a combined 10 games last season while making eight starts and has started 90 of the 104 games he’s appeared in during his career. Baker totaled 61 tackles, two sacks, and two TFLs last season and can provide valuable snaps for whatever defense he lands on.
  • ATL Wide Receiver #17
    Agnew spent last season on the Steelers practice squad after signing with them during the offseason. He hasn’t played a regular season snap since suffering a gruesome leg injury during the 2023 season while with the Jaguars, but at just 29 years old, Agnew could provide a spark to the Falcons’ special teams unit and perhaps see some work in a gadget role similar to what we saw during his best years in Jacksonville.
  • Quarterback
    Speaking on the 40s and Free Agents podcast, Daniel Jeremiah said that a source told him “the Giants had a presence at every single Colorado game this year.”
    Reports have consistently indicated that the Giants hope to add a rookie quarterback prospect, as well as a veteran, this offseason. Jeremiah’s source tells him that the Giants were “following Shedeur Sanders around the entire season,” suggesting Sanders is either their preferred rookie prospect or perhaps the more easily attainable one. The Giants currently sit at No. 3 overall in the 2025 NFL draft, but a trade-up to the No. 1 or No. 2 spot is still possible.
  • CLE Guard #76
    The terms aren’t yet known, but Jenkins brings three years of starting experience to the Browns. Despite the Bears’ decision to move on from him, Jenkins has graded out as one of the top-15 guards in the league in each of the last two seasons, per PFF, and has allowed 17 or fewer pressures in every season he’s played in. Cleveland wouldn’t seem to have an obvious starting spot for Jenkins, whose market appears to have been weaker than expected because of his lengthy injury history.
  • DET Cornerback #33
    Ya-Sin joins his fourth team in four years after previously playing for the Raiders, Ravens, and Niners over the last three seasons. The former second-round pick appeared in 13 games for the 49ers last season but appeared on just 63 defensive snaps while totaling three tackles and two pass breakups. He’s only 28, but Ya-Sin has started just 10 of the last 38 regular season games he’s appeared in since 2022. He’s strictly a depth signing at this point, and may be best suited on special teams.
  • WAS Wide Receiver #10
    Gallup retired last offseason before the start of training camp. He had signed a one-year contract with the Raiders just months before that. He will now join the Commanders in hopes of securing a spot on the 53-man roster this upcoming season. The former third-round pick totaled 158 receptions for 2,457 yards and 13 touchdowns during his first three years in the league but hasn’t been the same since a torn ACL ended his 2021 campaign. He reunites with Dan Quinn, who he spent three seasons with during their stint with the Cowboys. He’s not a lock to make the roster.
  • HOU Wide Receiver #1
    Diggs is in Foxborough to meet with the Patriots, who could use help at wide receiver. Prior to tearing his ACL in Week 8, Diggs caught 47 passes for 497 yards and three touchdowns for the Texans. The 31-year-old was a Pro-Bowler and 1,000-yard receiver all four seasons with the Bills prior to being dealt to the Texans. He has had a dry free agency market thus far as he heads into his age-32 season with uncertainty around his health for Week 1. The Patriots have missed out on Chris Godwin and others at the wide receiver position this offseason. Adding Diggs would give Drake Maye a reliable target, even if it takes a few games for Diggs to return and get into rhythm with the offense.
  • HOU Defensive End #55
    NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports Hunter is now the NFL’s second-highest paid defensive end and will make $32 million this season, a $12.5 million bump from his previous contract. His deal becomes a two-year, $55.1 million agreement with $54.1 million guaranteed. Hunter initially signed a two-year deal with the Texans last offseason and now gets one more season in Houston with a pay bump after tallying 12 sacks and a Pro Bowl in 2024. With Will Anderson opposite Hunter, the Texans keep a menacing pass rush through 2026. This sets another price point in an expensive edge market with pass rushers like Trey Hendrickson and Micah Parsons next to cash in.
