Corbin Young
August 26, 2025
Like any form of investment, we want to monitor the risers and fallers. That’s especially true with fantasy football, specifically wide receiver risers. In a previous article, we covered several Day 3 running backs rising in drafts, so it was logical to examine the receiver position. Unsurprisingly, we covered mostly Year 1 or Year 2 players, with a veteran joining a team late into the…...
