Summary

Dareke Young holds a 40.0 dynasty score, ranking 354th among wide receivers. The 26-year-old receiver averaged 2.0 targets per game in 2025, indicating a stable role, but he needs to increase production to reach his ceiling.

Projection Rationale

Dareke Young’s 2025 stat line of 2.0 targets per game indicates that he is still an active member of the Raiders’ receiving corps, but his efficiency grade at the 50th percentile suggests room for improvement. His contract situation, with a guaranteed $800,000 remaining, provides stability to his role. However, his age trajectory grade at the 100th percentile indicates that he has a long-term ceiling.

Injury Risk

No injury entries in 2025. Dareke Young’s age is 26, which is considered a relatively low risk for injury.

Opportunity Notes

Dareke Young’s snap share trended stable in 2025, averaging 9.5% of the offense’s snaps. However, his role may be threatened by the arrival of new coaches and the development of younger receivers.

Scheme Fit Analysis

The Raiders’ west-coast offense under Andrew Janocko features a 45.2% shotgun rate, which may lead to more opportunities for Dareke Young. The team’s emphasis on the shotgun could help him see more targets.

Trend Assessment

Declining Dareke Young’s production declined significantly in 2025, dropping from 5.8 fantasy points per game to 1.0 in Week 21, before bouncing back to 6.0 in Week 22. However, this trend indicates a decrease in usage and efficiency.

Ceiling / Floor

Ceiling: WR3-WR5 – Dareke Young needs to increase his target share and efficiency to reach his ceiling. Floor: WR6-WR8 – If Dareke Young loses his role or sees his target share decrease, he may fall to the lower tier range, referencing his trade value.
