Huddle Up: With A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs now in the mix, Williams' role in the offense remains to be seen. He will need to surpass DeMario Douglas in the pecking order if he is going to deliver any type of consistent value, but Williams is worth keeping an eye on as a potential big-play threat.

Huddle Up: Fantasy players can keep an eye on Henderson's practice participation leading up to the opener to see if he suffers any setbacks. He is set to share playing time with Rhamondre Stevenson and can be a No. 2 or No. 3 running back in fantasy leagues if healthy.

Huddle Up: Henderson probably is dealing with a minor injury but probably will miss a few practices as he recovers. He is set to share playing time with Rhamondre Stevenson in 2026 and can be a No. 2 running back or flex option in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation to see if Henderson misses any additional time. He will be sharing playing time with Rhamondre Stevenson again this season and can be considered a No. 2 or No. 3 back in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Maye was neck and neck with Matthew Stafford in the league MVP race last season, but Maye ended up as the runner-up. Passing for 31 touchdowns, 4,394 yards, and tacking on 450 rushing yards and four more scores on the ground, Maye was a true fantasy difference-maker last season as 2025's QB2. This season should be no different and the team also added A.J. Brown to give him a true top-level threat at wide receiver. Maye should be one of the first few quarterbacks off the board in every fantasy football draft leading up to Week 1.

Huddle Up: Henry had a 60-768-7 season last year and wound up the TE9 in PPR leagues. He'll be a low-end TE1 target again in 2026 in PPR formats with a modest reduction in non-PPR.

Huddle Up: It seems like Doubs was dealing with a minor issue and should be back at practice on a regular basis. He should be one of the starting receivers for the Patriots this season and will see a decent amount of targets during games. He can be considered a No. 4 receiver in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation to see when Doubs will be able to return to the field. He is expected to be one of the starting receivers for the Patriots this season and can be at least a No. 4 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Boutte has flashed the past two seasons, but he has never carved a consistent role with the Pats. Unless he can unseat Hollins or gets traded to a team that can give him more opportunities, his fantasy profile will remain nominal in standard formats. Still, at age 24, it's not outside the realm of possibility that Boutte could emerge. Keep an eye on him over the next month to see what role he's projected to fill.

Huddle Up: Brown could miss a few days this week because of the injury, but it does not appear to be a big issue. He will see plenty of targets this season with his new team and will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Considering he finished last season ranked fourth in passing yards and third in touchdown passes, Maye could challenge for the league lead in both categories if the Patriots play faster on offense. Throw in the upgrades at the receiver position, and Maye seems like one of the safest bets to finish as a QB1 in 2026.

Huddle Up: A.J. Brown has a chance to be a WR1 for fantasy players in 2026. Drake Maye was able to have success with wide receivers of lesser talent last season, and now giving him a bona fide WR1 should allow the offense to take the next step with Brown leading in nearly every category.

Huddle Up: Henderson shared playing time with Rhamondre Stevenson last season and will likely have a similar workload in 2026. Both running backs have fantasy value, and Henderson can be considered a No. 2 or No. 3 back in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Henry has been a productive part of the passing game since signing with the Patriots and should continue to be a popular target for Derek Maye this season despite the additions at wide receiver. He will probably be a No. 2 tight end in fantasy leagues this season but could be a starter against certain opponents.

Huddle Up: Douglas does not appear to be a starting option at this point for the Patriots but could see more work if the team decides to move on from Kayshon Boutte. He will see a few targets each game this season but will not be a starting option in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: The Patriots added A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs this offseason, so Williams is behind them and possibly Kayshon Boutte on the depth chart. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation because Williams can be a late round pick in leagues if he does receive a role in the passing game.

Huddle Up: The Patriots added Brown this offseasn to give Maye a true No. 1 target, and it sounds like he is doing his best to fill that role. Brown struggled with consistency in his final year in Philadelphia, but he still showcased his WR1 upside. If Maye and Brown continue to build a rapport, Brown could be push to be a top-10 fantasy option at the receiver position.

Huddle Up: Although Henderson started slowly, he still finished his rookie season with more than 1,100 yards from scrimmage and 10 total touchdowns while showcasing his big-play ability. The Patriots seem happy to have Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson share the workload, which will likely lead to some boom or bust production from Henderson.

Huddle Up: The Patriots acquired Brown to become the go-to receiver for Drake Maye, and he brings a track record of proven production. Brown has topped 1,000 yards and caught at least seven touchdowns in each of the past four seasons, and there is a good chance that streak continues in 2026. He will have WR1 upside as the focal point of the New England passing attack.

Huddle Up: Brown will be the main receiver for the Patriots this offseason and should see plenty of targets each game. He will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues and will likely be selected in the early round of drafts.

Huddle Up: Brown's inconsistency really plagued his fantasy value - especially early on last season. In a new offense that should feature him prominently, he'll be a great WR2 or possibly a low-end WR1.

Huddle Up: Brown finished as the WR11 in PPR leagues last season, but he did next to nothing in the first quarter of the season and really hamstrung people that took him as a WR1/WR2 type. He would benefit from a change of scenery, but a high-end WR2 is probably where his upside peaks.

Huddle Up: The Patriots remain the heavy favorite to acquire Brown this offseason, although a trade is unlikely to happen before June 1. If a deal is finalized, he would become the clear No. 1 receiving option in New England, especially since the position was not addressed in the draft and WR Stefon Diggs remains in free agency. For now, Brown can be viewed as a high-end WR2 option in most fantasy leagues, with the possibility of moving into the WR1 conversation if he winds up with the Patriots.

Huddle Up: Stevenson was RB25 in fantasy football last season, and despite fumbling issues early in 2025, he remained involved in the team's running game despite the presence of rookie TreVeyon Henderson. Handling a career-low 133 carries last season, Stevenson could see a slight uptick in work in the upcoming season and should remain on the fantasy radar in 2026. Stevenson is one of the better contingent plays in case something happens to Henderson and will be a worthy mid-to-late round pick in drafts this summer.

Huddle Up: "Neither side is committed to it, but both I believe are expected to make it happen ... It's not going to be hard to get done," Schefter reported. While Brown finished as a top-12 fantasy wide receiver in 2025, he had to navigate some barren offensive play from the Eagles in the front half of last season to make up for it in the back half. From Week 11-18, Brown averaged 18.6 fantasy points and was WR5 in that span. He's at least a high-end fantasy WR2 with plenty of upside to be a WR1 again in 2026 if that trade were to happen.

Huddle Up: Raridon might not make an immediate impact, but his huge frame gives him plenty of potential, especially as a weapon in the red zone. Raridon can probably be largely ignored as a rookie, but he could have a future as a touchdown-dependent TE2.

Huddle Up: While Brown finished as a top-12 fantasy wide receiver in 2025, he had to navigate some barren offensive play from the Eagles in the front half of last season to make up for it in the back half. From Weeks 11 through 18, Brown averaged 18.6 fantasy points and was WR5 in that span. Perhaps a much-rumored trade to New England could pair him with Drake Maye and provide some consistency? Brown's fantasy managers would love that, and we're looking at him as a high-end fantasy WR2 with plenty of upside to be a WR1 again in 2026 if that trade were to happen.
