Ratcliffe’s 2026 WR Sleepers for RB-Heavy Drafts
Jeff Ratcliffe lays out his mid- to late-round wide receivers for 2026 fantasy drafts, arguing that a running-back-heavy start makes finding WR upside crucial. Key sleepers include Rome Odunze (healthy and poised to be the Bears’ X after DJ Moore’s departure), Quentin Johnston (Chargers; more targets up for grabs), Makai Lemon (Eagles; potential Day 1 contributor behind DeVonta Smith), Jayden Higgins (Texans; emerging outside option), and Jalen McMillan (Buccaneers; outside receiver upside). The piece also notes Stefon Diggs’ signing with Washington and its implications for the WR corps and fantasy value, while cautioning managers to let the draft define strategy rather than chasing safe production.**
