Video: 6 Dark Horse Fantasy Football League Winners
DeVonta Smith is going to step right in as the wide receiver one... The splits without A.J. Brown in the over the last three seasons for DeVonta Smith have been absolutely terrific. He's averaged nine targets per game and 16.2 points per game in games without A.J. Brown... there's a chance that he could put up a 17-18 point per game season and I'm able to get him at the 3-4 turn on both Underdog and FFPC right now.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Smith steps into A.J. Brown role with 17-18 PPG upside at 3-4 turn.

Dark horse candidate positioned to step into WR1 role vacated by A.J. Brown's trade to New England. Over last three seasons without A.J. Brown, Smith averaged 9 targets per game and 16.2 PPG. Capable of handling Jaxon Smith-Njigba-type usage. At 27 years old with elite college pedigree (Heisman, 1,900 yards and 23 TDs at Alabama), Smith has never had a focal-point season as a pro but is staring at one in 2026. A.J. Brown's role carried 27%+ target share, top-5 first-read rate, and 35% air-yard share for multiple seasons. With Shane Steichen taking over as OC, Smith could post 17-18 PPG and is available at the 3-4 turn on Underdog and FFPC.
