According to the Fantasy Life Newsletter, Woody Marks is now firmly in late-round consideration. Houston traded up to select him in Round 4, signaling commitment, and he brings receiving chops that fit the Texans’ pass-heavy offense. The tout points to multiple uncertainty flags ahead of Marks on the depth chart: a ‘bizarre’ Joe Mixon situation and quotes suggesting Nick Chubb’s health remains a concern. Given that context, Marks carries contingent upside plus potential third-down usage, making him a cheap, pragmatic dart throw in Best Ball and deeper season-long formats.

The Fantasy Life Newsletter noted that Jacory Croskey-Merritt’s first-team reps during training camp—and the steady social-media drumbeat around his play—make him a name to stash. Washington’s backfield is wide open and tied to what the tout calls a potentially high-powered offense, checking every late-round sleeper box: unclear depth chart, reasonable path to touches, and inexpensive ADP. With little draft capital invested (seventh round) but early camp involvement, Croskey-Merritt has moved onto the tout’s watch list as a free, upside swing at the very end of drafts.

The author of the Fantasy Life Newsletter said Tahj Brooks is now a priority final-round target. With Zack Moss landing on the active/NFI list while recovering from a broken neck and reportedly fighting for his roster spot, Cincinnati’s sixth-round rookie has a clear runway to the No. 2 job behind Chase Brown. Camp reports highlight Brooks’ pass-catching flashes, giving him a three-down profile if Brown were to miss time; Samaje Perine would mix in but is viewed as a complementary veteran. The tout likes clicking Brooks at the end of Best Ball drafts because he offers immediate injury contingency value and could carve out a weekly role in obvious passing situations.
