Outlook Tetairoa McMillan

Sophomore Surge Beckons For Panthers Rising Star After Award-Winning Debut

Following a stellar rookie campaign with 1,130 yards, Tetairoa McMillan enters his second season as the top target in Carolina. Operating as the primary boundary receiver, McMillan sits atop the depth chart ahead of Xavier Legette, anchoring the passing game for Bryce Young. Our models project a stable target share, forecasting another heavy workload with 122 targets.

Recent reports indicate the sophomore receiver spent the offseason focused on regaining power and muscle after dropping weight last year. While he sat out early team drills in June, coaching staff confidence remains sky-high. We project him to maintain his efficiency, serving as a dangerous option after catching eight touchdowns last year.

McMillan's draft stock reflects this massive upside, with his PPR ADP steadily climbing from pick 37 to a premium price around pick 33. Our projections of 219.7 fantasy points align with this market momentum, making him a secure high-end WR2 selection who offers a reliable weekly floor.

Outlook Xavier Worthy

Post-Hype Breakout Beckons in Kansas City After Strong Offseason Recovery

Xavier Worthy enters his third season listed as a starting wide receiver for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. After a slightly down 2025 campaign where he caught 46 passes for 591 yards, Worthy is generating heavy buzz in offseason practices. He looks to command a larger share of targets alongside Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce.

Healthy after undergoing offseason shoulder surgery and rehab, Worthy has been a standout in early minicamps. Our models project a bounce-back year, forecasting 55 receptions on 89 targets for 716 yards and four touchdowns, in addition to some rushing work.

His draft stock reflects this growing optimism, climbing from a late-round flyer at an ADP of nearly 140 in mid-May to around 120 in June. At this price in 1.0 PPR formats, we view him as an enticing value pick with massive post-hype breakout appeal.
