Some speculation here but on Drake London, Jahan Dotson, Olamide Zaccheus, and Zachariah Branch: Dotson = WR2 can line up outside London = can line up in slot OZ = WR3 for now Branch = WR4 probably starts as gadget player and then chance to work his way up and do more

Olamide Zaccheaus is a clear frontrunner to round out the starting receiver slots alongside Drake London in Atlanta's weak wide receiver room. His career-best season was 2022 with 61 targets, 40 receptions, 533 receiving yards, and 3 touchdowns (ranked 59th overall). He has not approached those numbers since, making him an unproven option for 2026.

The Athletic expects ATL to open the season with Drake London, Olamide Zaccheaus, Jahan Dotson as the 3-WR set. But, "third-round draft pick Zachariah Branch will be in that rotation and could bump Dotson or Zaccheaus from the starting lineup if he has a strong training camp." <https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7472926/2026/07/28/falcons-training-camp-penix-tagovailoa-qb-competition/>

NegativeBustJul 23, 2026FantasyPros Articles

Olamide Zaccheaus earned a starting spot for Atlanta heading into 2026, but his hold on the slot position is unlikely to last. The Falcons drafted Zachariah Branch, a former USC standout with elite speed, sharp footwork, reliable hands and the ability to pile up yards after the catch. Branch profiles as a natural slot weapon with quickness, acceleration and short-area burst that give him a clear advantage over Zaccheaus, who has always been more of a placeholder than a long-term solution. Based on his traits and projected usage, Branch is positioned to overtake Zaccheaus early in the season, with a change before Week 4 very realistic. The source advises fantasy managers to expect an early shift in Atlanta's slot hierarchy.

Waiver-eligible player with clear snap and target production; preferred for roster churn strategy over developmental prospects. Speaker explicitly states 'I'd rather have somebody like Olamita Zaccheaus' because 'dude got snapped last year, dude got targets, right?' and can enter flex with easy production tracking, allowing flexibility to drop if production stops.

Olamide Zaccheaus posted an 84 passer rating when targeted as the first read for the Bears last year, the lowest among primary targets. He received 33 first-read targets, the same as Luther Burden. His departure from the Bears opens target-share expansion opportunity for Burden and other receivers in the offense.
