Outlook Justin Jefferson
Elite Target Share Solidifies Top-Tier Status With a Massive QB Upgrade
Justin Jefferson remains the clear number-one option in Minnesota's passing game. With the Vikings signing dual-threat quarterback Kyler Murray to lead the offense, Jefferson's ceiling is incredibly high. He anchors a talented receiving corps that includes Jordan Addison and tight end T.J. Hockenson. We project Jefferson to lead the team with 139 targets, serving as the focal point of this revamped passing attack.
While his 2025 campaign was slightly quieter with 1,096 yards and two touchdowns, our models forecast a strong rebound. We project Jefferson to haul in 94 receptions for 1,242 yards and six touchdowns. At 27 years old, his unmatched route-running ability guarantees consistent, high-value targets.
The fantasy market is reacting enthusiastically to Minnesota's upgraded quarterback room. After dipping to an ADP of 14 in mid-May, Jefferson's draft cost has steadily climbed to an elite first-round price tag of 6.0 in 1.0 PPR formats. At this cost, we view him as a premier, high-floor foundation piece who easily justifies his top-tier draft capital.

Outlook DK Metcalf
DK Metcalf Primed for a High-Value Season with Aaron Rodgers Under Center
DK Metcalf enters his second season in Pittsburgh locked in as a primary target in an upgraded offense. Now paired with veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers alongside Michael Pittman Jr., Metcalf's role in the passing game is secure. Last year, he posted 64 receptions for 872 yards and six touchdowns.
Our projections expect similar, steady usage for the physical wideout in 2026. We project Metcalf to secure 63 receptions on 101 targets for 878 yards and six touchdowns, totaling 189.0 PPR points.
Fantasy managers have taken notice of this upgraded environment, driving his ADP up dramatically from the high-70s in early May to 43 overall in early June. While no longer a deep draft-day steal in 1.0 PPR formats, he remains an excellent value with WR2 safety and WR1 upside.
