Calvin Austin — 2026 Fantasy Outlook

The case for drafting him

Calvin Austin is a NYG wide receiver with three seasons of NFL production on record. His best year came in 2024: 58 targets, 36 receptions, 548 receiving yards, and 4 receiving touchdowns. He followed that with 55 targets, 31 receptions, 372 receiving yards, and 3 receiving touchdowns in 2025. Averaged across the three seasons from 2023 through 2025, he has seen 47.7 targets, caught 28 passes for 366.7 yards, and scored 2.7 receiving touchdowns per year. There is a real-game track record here, and his 2024 target share shows he can function as a genuine option in an NFL passing game.

What the model projects

The projection for Austin is 0.0 fantasy points in half-PPR scoring. His draft value is -128.2, placing him #815 overall and at WR362. He sits in Tier 9.

How to draft him

Austin has no market ADP across public 2026 drafts, which means he is not being selected consistently enough on any tracked platform to produce a median draft position. In a standard 12-team snake draft, he is effectively undrafted. His rank of #815 overall and WR362 places him well outside any realistic draft window. He belongs on a watch list, not a draft roster, unless his situation changes materially before your draft.

Beyond the rankings

This page ranks the players. Nobody has ranked the people in your league.

Half your room drafts off a sheet like this one. The managers who cash every year aren't holding a better sheet; they have tendencies, and after enough seasons the tendencies are a book. Your league's own draft history is where it's written.

RotoAlpha reads it. Paste your past drafts, from any platform, and every manager in your league gets a profile: who reaches, who chases runs, who pays up for their own team. Then it sits with you on draft night with a plan that adapts pick by pick, knowing who is likely to reach next.

Profiles and history are free and never expire. Draft night itself is the Football 2026 Season Pass: $39 once, no subscription, money back through your first real draft.
