- CeeDee Lamb fell from the top: Lamb finished first in fantasy points for wide receivers in 2023, butDak Prescott’s accuracy declined, and then Prescott and Lamb dealt with injuries, leading to less fantasy production from Lamb.
- The Seattle Seahawks will look far different on offense: The team has a new offensive coordinator, a new quarterback and three new wide receivers to join Jaxon Smith-Njigba at the top of the depth chart. The changes might not be good news for Smith-Njigba’s fantasy production.

In an ideal world, every player will put up the same stats as their best season, if not better, in 2025. Unfortunately, there are several reasons why a player might not reach those same heights. Specifically for wide receivers, this could include changes at quarterback, changes in competition, or simply the player getting another year past their prime. The wide receivers in this article are being selected in the first three rounds, which is too high compared to other alternatives at the same draft spot.
The average draft position listed is from a consensus between ESPN, Sleeper and Yahoo! for where the player is picked on average in a 12-team, redraft league.

CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys (ADP: 1.06)
Lamb started as a top-seven fantasy wide receiver over the first eight weeks. He averaged 18.9 fantasy points per game, a notable dropoff from 2023. His target rate was down slightly, but his catch rate was down from 72.9% to 60.8%, leading to fewer receptions and fewer yards.Dak Prescott’s accuracy rate dropped from 63.3% in 2023 to 51.0% in 2024 on all passes, likely contributing to Lamb’s decline. The offense wasn’t performing well, so his touchdown rate was down.

Hull FC boss accused of ‘influencing referee’ by rival coach Powell
Wakefield coach Daryl Powell accused Hull counterpart John Cartwright of influencing referee James Vella after Trinity squandered a 10-0 lead to lose 16-10 in east Yorkshire.Wakefield took charge of the contest in the first half but the tables were turned after the break as Zak Hardaker, Jordan Rapana and Lewis Martin all touched down within the space of a dozen minutes to give Hull their first home win in nearly a year. Even though Powell laid the blame for Wakefield's loss on their second-half performance, he suspects Vella could have been affected by what he overheard from Cartwright as the players made their way to the tunnel at the interval."I didn't like what happened at half-time with the referee, the influence of walking up and down saying how much the penalty count is," Powell told Sky Sports post-match."It's [penalty count] […]
Can 49ers rebound after disappointing 2024? How Christian McCaffrey’s return, remade defense impact outlook
Welcome to "NFL Thoughts," a wide-ranging, in-depth look at some of the top storylines of the 2025 season. We started this year's series by looking back at the prized 2024 rookie quarterback class and looking forward to what we should expect from it in 2025. Today, we're looking at a team that fell off in 2024 and whether it can rejoin the NFL's upper crust after big changes over the 2025 offseason.From 2019-2023, the 49ers won 54 regular-season games -- only the Packers won more games among NFC teams -- and went to two Super Bowls, falling to the Chiefs both times. The 49ers' eight playoff wins over that span were second in the NFL, only behind Kansas City. That Patrick Mahomes guy has a way of standing in the way, doesn't he?In last year's version of this very series, […]
College Football Hot Seat Rankings: How last year’s nine coaches with jobs on the line fared
CBS Sports' 2025 released its College Football Hot Seat Rankings this week, assessing the job security of all 136 FBS coaches. Atop that list, our expert panel of voters identified nine coaches with their jobs on the line entering the season.While these coaches certainly face pressure, it's important to remember that job security is fluid in college football. A few big wins can cool a coach's seat in a hurry, while a tumble down the standings can heat things up for another. To put things into perspective, we looked back at last year's list of coaches with jobs on the line to see how each fared, and the results were all over the map.Three of the coaches CBS rated in the "4" and "5" ranges on the hot seat meter -- "start improving now" and "win or be fired," respectively […]
Biggest remaining need for every NFC team: Secondary help for Packers, Cowboys, protection for Baker Mayfield
Despite the recent trade between the Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers, there is usually little movement at this stage of the NFL calendar. Moves that are made this time of year are usually of little consequence to the outcome of the season. However, big names linger on the open market, such as wide receivers Keenan Allen and Amari Cooper, safeties Marcus Williams and Justin Simmons, pass rushers Za'Darius Smith and Jadeveon Clowney, and more. Could one of those veterans be the missing piece to a team's Super Bowl run? The Chargers and Lions will open the preseason July 31 at the 2025 Pro Football Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio. Los Angeles will also be the first team reporting to training camp with rookies set to appear July 12. The Steelers and Falcons veterans will be last to report July 23.Let's explore the biggest remaining need for each NFC franchise ahead of training […]
