Fantasy Football ADP Risers & Fallers: Keenan Allen Surges After Signing With Colts

We are sooooo close to the start of the NFL regular season. We’ve made it through the second week of the preseason, and we’re just over two weeks from the Wednesday night kickoff between the Seahawks and Patriots.

That said, plenty is still happening on a daily basis. Player signings, injuries and breakouts have occurred throughout training camps, which has had a big impact on the fantasy marketplace.

Let’s dive into three of the biggest risers and fallers in fantasy football ADP on Underdog over the past seven days.

Risers in Fantasy Football ADP

Keenan Allen | IND | WR (+42.7 spots)

Allen was one of the last true dominoes that needed to fall before the start of the year. He was a productive receiver for the Chargers at 33 years old last season, leading the team with 81 receptions. However, he was still looking for a home at the start of last week.

That officially came to an end on Monday night, with Allen agreeing to a one-year, $8.32M contract with the Colts. The fit is a bit of a mixed bag. The good news is that he has a clear path to early playing time, with Alec Pierce still recovering from offseason ankle surgery. The bad news is that he seems to have an overlapping skill set with Josh Downs and Tyler Warren. Those three players are going to have to compete for targets in the intermediate areas, and that area could be especially crowded with Pierce not around to stretch the defense.

Adam Pfiefer broke down the impact for all of the Colts’ pass-catchers, but it’s great news for those who invested in Allen when his role was uncertain. His ADP has jumped more than 42 spots over the past seven days, and he still has some room for growth. He’s up to WR64 in our consensus fantasy football rankings.

Caleb Douglas | MIA | WR (+30.6 spots)

The Dolphins’ passing attack has a lot of opportunities up for grabs this season. The team lost both starting receivers from last year (Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle), and they didn’t have a ton of depth behind them. Guys like De’Von Achane and Greg Dulcich should carry a lot of the load, but that still leaves a lot of playing time at receiver.

Douglas has emerged as the favorite to be their WR1. He was a third-round selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, and he was listed as a starter on the team’s first unofficial depth chart. He had two targets from Malik Willis in their first preseason game, good for a 40% target share. Both of those looks also came well downfield, and he turned one of them into a highlight-reel grab.

The Dolphins WR saw a nice price increase this week, but he’s still just WR74 in terms of Underdog ADP. That gives him minimal downside as a late-round flyer. He’s as high as WR58 for Alex Cupps.

De’Zhaun Stribling | SF | WR (+21.3 spots)

Let’s go from one rookie receiver to another. Stribling was considered a “reach” when the 49ers selected him at No. 33 overall, but he has generated plenty of buzz this offseason. He has reportedly had a strong training camp, and he was heavily involved with the starters in their Week 2 preseason game. He had five targets on just two drives, and he responded with four catches for 46 yards.

With the 49ers dealing with some injuries, Stribling appeared poised to be a factor early in the season. The Athletic’s Matt Barrows said he believes that Stribling is going to have a “major role” in Week 1 vs. the Rams.

Unfortunately, Stribling didn’t make it out of Thursday’s preseason contest unscathed. He is currently listed as day-to-day with a shoulder injury. As long as he’s able to return soon, he looks like a prime target in all formats. Even with his recent price jump, he’s still just WR51 on Underdog.

Fallers in Fantasy Football ADP

Jordyn Tyson | NO | WR (-26.9 spots)

This is the unfortunate part of training camps and the preseason. While some guys take off like rocket ships, others suffer injuries that are going to take months to recover from. Tyson falls into the latter category.

The No. 8 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft was considered by many to be the most talented receiver in the class. He had a chance to step in as the clear No. 2 WR in an emerging Saints’ offense right out of the gate. Instead, he’s going to miss roughly two months due to a hamstring injury. Hamstrings also have a tendency to linger, so it’s possible that this ends up being a lost season. Tyson struggled with injuries throughout his college career, so this is definitely not the start he was looking for.

No one saw a bigger dip in ADP over the past seven days on Underdog, and he’s down to WR50 in our consensus rankings. It’s still possible he makes an impact later in the season, but it’s hard to click his name at this point.

Isiah Pacheco | DET | RB (-24.7 spots)

Pacheco makes the “fallers” section for the second straight week. He’s dealing with an MCL sprain, and while head coach Dan Campbell believes he’ll be ready for Week 1, he probably won’t be a big part of the offense. Jahmyr Gibbs has emerged as one of the best running backs in football, to the point where the Lions felt comfortable trading away David Montgomery.

Add in the fact that Pacheco looked like a shell of himself after returning from injury last year, and he doesn’t offer much upside. He’s still worth rostering in the event of a Gibbs injury, but that seems like his only path to relevance.

Oronde Gadsden | LAC | TE (-18.3 spots)

Gadsden had a stretch as a rookie where he looked like a future star at tight end. Unfortunately, that stretch was short-lived. His role diminished as the season progressed, and things don’t look great for a breakout in 2026-27.

While there are more opportunities available for the Chargers with Allen officially gone, Gadsden is going to have to split the snaps at tight end with David Njoku. He’s also seemingly behind Charlie Kolar in the pecking order. Both of the newly acquired veterans got the night off in the team’s second preseason game, while Gadsden was out there for three drives with the backups.

Gadsden still has some talent, but he’s moved down to the bottom of tier three in our rankings. It doesn’t matter how much natural talent you have; it’s impossible to score fantasy points if you’re not on the field.
