Boston is WR10 on the season but Behrens ranks him WR27 this week and is cautious about starting him. He notes that Boston had training camp buzz as a top receiver, but the actual production has been inconsistent—Casey Concepcion gets early-game volume while Boston's targets come later. Boston dropped a potential touchdown in Week 2. Behrens wants to see another game of proof before fully committing.PositiveProjectionSep 22, 2026
Denzel Boston leads the team in end zone targets with two through week two, matching Casey Concepcion in targets while averaging 16.5 yards downfield per target. The source ranks him number one on the waiver wire, noting he's getting a heaping of downfield targets where he explodes and has already scored two touchdowns in a wide open target tree with new players around Harold Fannin.NegativeRoleSep 22, 2026
Boston was silent in the first half against Tampa but showed up in the second half with a back shoulder catch, end zone fade attempt, and a crucial third-quarter dig route catch where he survived a hit, spun away, and scored the tying touchdown; the source notes he'll be discussed in the waiver wire section.NegativeUsageSep 15, 2026
Boston scored a touchdown with two minutes remaining in the game, but the source notes this came when "the dogs having been called off" and was "not that impressive" given the blowout context. The touchdown was more a product of garbage time than meaningful offensive involvement.PositiveValueAug 31, 2026
Boston is being drafted 156th overall ADP versus Concepcion at 113th overall, a significant discount despite Boston's 6'4" frame and red-zone upside in a dysfunctional Chargers passing game. JJ Zachariason views this as a 51-49 situation favoring Concepcion, but prefers Boston as a 14th-15th round puncher's chance bet given the new coaching staff and potential offensive improvement; the logic that short-yardage situations will go exclusively to slot receiver Concepcion is overstated, and Boston's size gives him touchdown upside if the Chargers can move players around the field.PositiveValueAug 31, 2026
JJ Zachariason ranks Boston at 54 overall and has taken him late in every draft; despite Conception going ahead of Boston in ADP, Browns beat reporters say Boston has been the more electric player and is the primary reason the Browns parted with Cedric Tillman; at 14th round pricing, Boston offers upside relative to market perception.PositiveBreakoutAug 21, 2026
Denzel Boston was the standout performer during the joint practice session between the Browns and Bills.PositiveProjectionNo date
Boston will likely be less fantasy viable in year one as he's deployed as an outside X receiver, but the source likes him long-term as more than just an X. He fits the profile of receivers like Michael Pittman and Cortland Sutton—big-bodied X receivers who can do more. Boston and Concepcion complement each other well, and the source ranks both inside the top 160 overall. If Judy is released, Boston could see a bump in opportunity, though the source is less certain about how high he'd climb given his likely role as a downfield route runner.
