Outlook Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at Kansas City — Expanding Slot Role Offers Deep-League Appeal
Bryant enters the regular season with positive momentum after recent reports suggested he could command a larger role in Denver’s offense than originally expected. Listed as the top slot receiver alongside perimeter targets Courtland Sutton and Jaylen Waddle, the second-year receiver is poised to see meaningful snaps with Bo Nix under center on Monday night at Arrowhead Stadium.
Our projections forecast a modest outing of about four targets, nearly three receptions, and 31 receiving yards (6.7 fantasy points). While his expanding snap share warrants attention, Bryant is currently rostered in just 6% of leagues and should remain on fantasy benches in standard formats until his regular-season target volume materializes.

Outlook Emari Demercado
Efficient Rotational Playmaker Faces Steep Climb for Fantasy Relevance
Emari Demercado enters the 2026 campaign seeking to carve out rotational snaps after three seasons operating as an efficient change-of-pace back. Over his prior campaigns, Demercado flashed explosive ability, posting 7.1 yards per carry across 44 attempts in 2025 while contributing steadily in the passing attack.
Our projections forecast a complementary role consisting of 70 rush attempts for 385 yards, two rushing scores, and 15 receptions for 100 yards and a touchdown (82.0 fantasy points). Without a path to heavy touch volume or high-leverage goal-line opportunities, his weekly floor remains low.
Market sentiment has cooled dramatically. Demercado's ADP plunged from the mid-400s in July to past pick 840 in late August, and his roster rate slipped to just 1.4%. At this depressed draft price, he is purely a deep-league stash or watch-list candidate.
