Doubs

The Bills can’t really afford to give out $25 million a year on an Alec Pierce deal, so it makes sense to see them connected to the top of the second tier of the free agent market. Either of these players being added would probably spell the end for Josh Palmer in the fantasy football landscape. Fowler adds that the Raiders have been linked to Shaheed, and that Doubs is a potential option for the 49ers.

Doubs profiles as one of the better available receivers after we clear away George Pickens (expected to be tagged) and Alec Pierce (could be tagged), and enters his age-26 season as a likely No. 2 or No. 3 target somewhere. We’d be surprised if his fantasy role grew much, but perhaps he’ll find the exact right spot (Miami?) to be a strong No. 2 target and snag a WR3 ranking in 2026 drafts.

Jackson starts with Malik Willis, who spent the last two years marinating in Packers culture. The Dolphins have a very clear need at the position after benching Tua Tagovailoa late last season. Money might be an issue with the Dolphins starting the offseason $30 million over the cap, but it’s easy to connect the dots here and see Willis in Miami. Quay Walker, Kingsley Enagbare, Romeo Doubs and Sean Rhyan are also potential fits per Jackson.

On a night where Jordan Love spread the ball around to several wideouts, Doubs was still clearly his top target, and he was rewarded with a one-yard touchdown near the end of the first half that gave Green Bay a 21-3 lead. The 25-year-old ‘s season is over because the Packers fell apart in the second half, and he finished the 2025 campaign with 55 catches for 724 yards with six touchdowns. There were several clunkers for the wideout — the same is true for all Packers’ receivers in 2025 — but there were enough flashes to suggest he still has a bright future in this league. The question is where he’ll be playing in 2026, as he’ll be able to test free agency for the first time this winter.

Doubs did most of the damage on a 40-yard connection in the first quarter with Malik Willis that set up a touchdown pass to Christian Watson. The 25-year-old played fiddle between Watson and Jayden Reed for the rest of the contest, but fantasy managers at least got the one long reception. He’ll be back at it in Week 18 against the Vikings.

Doubs is good to go for the Packers’ Week 17 game against the Ravens. The Packers’ perimeter receiver is just a touchdown-dependent flex option though, having cleared 60 yards receiving just four times this season. The Packers’ quarterback situation is also concerning, with starting QB Jordan Love (concussion) and QB Malik Willis (shoulder/illness) both ailing.

Doubs led the Packers in receiving on the night, with his best play coming on a 33-yard touchdown strike from Malik Willis late in the third quarter. The fourth-year receiver would exit late in this one, however, as a wrist injury suffered in the fourth quarter while attempting to recover an onside kick sidelined him for the overtime period. Saturday’s outing against the Bears marked Doubs’ best performance since he went for 4-53-0 against the Giants in Week 11 against the Giants. He shouldn’t be viewed as anything more than a WR4/FLEX option in Week 17 against the Ravens.

Doubs only saw three targets in this one, but the fourth-year receiver could see a bigger workload in Week 16 if Christian Watson (chest) is unable to go. Earlier this season, when Watson was recovering from a knee injury, Doubs saw eight or more targets in three games and finished as a top-36 PPR receiver in four of those outings. He’s a highly volatile player, but may find himself on the radar as a FLEX play if Watson can’t go against the Jaguars.

With Christian Watson emerging as the Packers’ No. 1 receiver and Jayden Reed back in the mix, Doubs simply couldn’t earn targets in a suddenly-crowded receiver room. Things have been trending in this direction for a while. Doubs most recently topped 23 yards in Week 11 and his last game with more than four catches came in Week 8. He can safely be dropped in all 12-team fantasy formats heading into Week 15.

Doubs was his typically reliable self in this one. He simply took a backseat to Christian Watson and Dontayvion Wicks. Doubs scored his touchdown from two yards out in the second quarter. The Packers sent him in motion from right to left, where he lined up out wide and ran a short out route. He got open, caught the pass easily and dove in for the score. Doubs is a WR3/WR4 against the Bears next week.
