Outlook Keenan Allen

Unsigned Veteran Slot Master Offers Late-Career PPR Depth

Keenan Allen enters his age-34 season as an intriguing free agent whose landing spot will dictate his fantasy utility. Recent comments from Chargers General Manager Joe Hortiz in late May indicate the door remains open for a potential reunion in Los Angeles, which would immediately boost his stock.

Even at this late stage of his career, our models show Allen can still produce in the right system. Last year, he suited up for a full 17-game slate, hauling in 81 receptions for 777 yards and four touchdowns, proving his veteran savvy and reliable hands remain highly functional.

Currently rostered in 69% of leagues but starting in only 18% of fantasy formats, managers are rightfully taking a wait-and-see approach. Until he signs with a team, he remains a bench stash with decent PPR flex upside if he lands in a pass-friendly offense.

Outlook Michael Pittman

Reliable PPR Asset Primed for Consistent Role in New-Look Passing Game

Now lining up for Pittsburgh, Michael Pittman is positioned as a starting outside receiver opposite fellow star DK Metcalf. With veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers pulling the strings, Pittman's route-running and reliable hands should make him a frequent target, complementing the team's potent passing attack.

Our projections expect another productive year, slotting him for 75 receptions on 100 targets, translating to 770 yards and five touchdowns. While these numbers sit slightly below his career-high 109-catch campaign in 2023, his consistent target-earning ability ensures a very secure weekly floor.

Draft markets have kept Pittman's stock highly stable, with his ADP holding firm in the late-eighth round around 98 to 103 after a brief early-June surge. At this price, our models view him as an outstanding value in full-PPR formats.
