Biggest Fantasy Football ADP Movers

De'Zhaun Stribling – Rising

Stribling is an unsurprising riser after the 49ers made him the first pick of the second round.

As things stand, Stribling is buried on the depth chart behind free agent addition Mike Evans and former first-round pick Ricky Pearsall.

George Kittle will also return at some point, and Christian McCaffrey is obviously a major factor in the passing game.

Looking at those names, though, it is easy to see a path to rookie targets for Stribling.

Kittle is already hurt.

Evans is older and has consistently dealt with hamstring injuries over the last several years.

Pearsall has played 20 games through two seasons.

McCaffrey is older, has a lot of miles on the tires, and also has a history of injuries, even if he stayed healthy last year.

There has been and will continue to be a lot of debate about how early the 49ers selected Stribling, but that does not matter for fantasy.

What matters for fantasy is opportunity, and it is easy to see a scenario in which Stribling plays a big role as a rookie.

Oronde Gadsden – Falling

There were reasons to be worried about Gadsden following his slow end to the 2025 season, and things have just gotten worse in the offseason.

First, the Chargers prioritized Charlie Kolar in free agency, adding him to a three-year, $24.3 million deal that included $17 million guaranteed.

Kolar and Gadsden do not really play the same position, to be fair.

Kolar is an inline tight end who will spend a large chunk of his snaps blocking, while Gadsden will spend a lot of time in the slot as a de facto wide receiver.

We should expect the Chargers to use more two-TE sets this season, given the coordinator change, the offseason additions, and the general direction of the league, but even the most TE-heavy offenses used multiple tight ends on fewer than 50% of their passing plays last season.

Gadsden losing single-TE snaps to Kolar, who is a better blocker, will make it difficult for him to run enough routes to be a real fantasy factor.

That was the case at the end of last year.

From Week 9 on, Gadsden ran a route on 67.5% of the offensive dropbacks, which was 17th among tight ends.

Things then got worse when the Chargers added David Njoku in May.

Njoku is coming off a down season and will turn 30 in July, but he is just another threat to Gadsden's route participation rate.

Gadsden put up great per-target numbers as a rookie, but there are serious reasons for concern about his usage in 2026.
