2026 Fantasy Outlook
The most dangerous receiver in football, Chase enters 2026 as the consensus WR1, and the argument for drafting him over the top running backs is legitimate. A fully healthy Joe Burrow for an entire 17-game season is the dream scenario, and the Bengals are built to facilitate that. He is the clear WR1 in a scheme that will feed him upwards of 180 targets with elite quarterback play, and his combination of volume, YAC, and big-play ability is unmatched at the position. The only thing holding him back from being the consensus first overall pick is Burrow's injury history. Draft him confidently as your foundational building block.
