DeVonta Smith could benefit from Jahan Dotson trade
DeVonta Smith could see more targets in the slot with the addition of Jahan Dotson to the Philadelphia receiving corps.
Fantasy Impact
Smith was second in YPRR on inside routes to Justin Jefferson last season. With Dotson’s speed and ability to spread the field, Smith could pay even higher dividends to fantasy managers drafting him as the 22nd wide receiver off the board around pick 39.

Kenneth Walker III shining at training camp
Kenneth Walker III has been impressive in training camp, though he may not play in any preseason games.
Fantasy Impact
Walker dealt with injuries in 2023, which somewhat limited his production, though he did end with 905 rushing yards, 259 receiving yards, and nine touchdowns. Backup RB Zach Charbonnet has been dealing with an injury during camp, but even when he was healthy, Walker was given twice as many touches in 2023. He is a high-end RB2 with RB1 upside.
