NFL Free Agency's BEST WR, TE & QB MOVES: Fantasy impact of Mike Evans to 49ers, Michael Pittman to Steelers & MORE!

·29 min·1 clip

Mike Evans is leaving Tampa Bay for San Francisco at age 32.

1. Locked On Fantasy Football focuses on NFL free-agency receiver and quarterback movement, including Mike Evans, Michael Pittman Jr., Malik Willis, and Travis Kelce. 2. Michelle Majuk is a fantasy analyst for NFL Network, and Vinny Iyer works on fantasy and betting for Sporting News, so their roles shape the player-value analysis. 3. The episode asks which free-agent moves actually change 2026 fantasy projections for wide receivers, tight ends, and quarterbacks. 4. Mike Evans is discussed at age 32 after leaving Tampa Bay for San Francisco, where the hosts place him alongside Brock Purdy, George Kittle, and Christian McCaffrey. 5. The 49ers’ fit is tied to Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings, Ricky Pearsall, and a vertical role that Tampa Bay’s younger receiver group could not guarantee. 6. The conversation on Evans centers on red-zone usage, play-action shots, and whether he still has top-20 wide receiver upside. 7. Indianapolis becomes the next major topic when the Colts give Alec Pierce a three-year, $114 million contract. 8. The same segment notes Michael Pittman Jr. being traded to Pittsburgh and frames the Colts’ spending as a questionable roster choice. 9. The hosts compare Pierce’s production with Daniel Jones to Pittman’s 11.3 half-PPR points per game from Weeks 1 through 13. 10. They argue that Pierce’s yards-per-reception profile does not automatically make him a true top-12 NFL receiver. 11. Pittsburgh’s deal for Pittman is described as a better fantasy setup because he joins DK Metcalf and helps stretch defenses. 12. The quarterbacks section turns to Malik Willis, who lands with the Dolphins and enters an offense still carrying questions about De’Von Achane, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Greg Dulcich. 13. The hosts compare Tua Tagovailoa’s high running-back target rate with Willis’s lower rate and note that Willis will also add rushing attempts himself. 14. The Falcons’ quarterback situation comes up through Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Jr., with the hosts preferring Penix to keep the job if he stays healthy. 15. Atlanta’s usage discussion leans toward Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts because Tua’s short and intermediate passing profile favors checkdowns. 16. The episode also connects Wan’Dale Robinson to the Titans, Travis Kelce to a 14th season, and Isaiah Likely to the Giants’ tight end group. 17. The tone is conversational and evaluative, with Majuk and Iyer constantly comparing landing spots, target shares, and quarterback styles. 18. The format alternates between player-by-player debate and sponsor breaks, so the episode feels like a fast-moving free-agency rundown. 19. Listeners tracking fantasy drafts, target competition, and quarterback changes would get the most from it. 20. Listeners wanting deep game-film breakdowns or non-fantasy team analysis could skip it.
