The source views Breece Hall as a high-value target in the fourth round of DraftKings drafts, explicitly preferring him over Garrett Wilson due to efficiency concerns surrounding Wilson's quarterback situation.

The source identifies Travis Etienne Jr. as a strong draft pick in the early fourth round.

The source prefers Tank Dell over Rome Odunze, citing Dell's strong rookie season, his status as a locked-in number one receiver, and the absence of injury concerns like the toe issue currently affecting Odunze.

The source is lowest on Rome Odunze compared to other receivers in his range, citing concerns over his toe injury and his status as less locked-in as a team's number one option compared to peers like Tank Dell.

The source is conflicted on Garrett Wilson, noting that while they are generally 'in' on him, they are hesitant to draft him over other options like Breece Hall in the fourth round due to efficiency concerns related to quarterback play.

The source is bullish on Ladd McConkey, stating they are 'in' on him as a draft target.

The source advises passing on D'Andre Swift in drafts, indicating he is not a target at his current market price.

Bucky Irving is mentioned as the catalyst for Kenneth Gainwell's ADP movement, specifically noting that Gainwell's price rose during a negative news cycle for Irving.

The source argues that Kenneth Gainwell is overvalued at his current ADP of 109, noting that he is definitely not the starter for the Eagles and that his ADP rose due to news cycles surrounding Bucky Irving.

The source identifies Chase Brown as a fantasy value, noting that while he is not a locked-in starter, his current ADP makes him an attractive target.

D'Onta Foreman is cited as historical context for the Panthers' backfield, specifically noting that he was not on the injury report during the playoff game where Chuba Hubbard dominated the workload.

Michael Pittman Jr. is selected as a preferred wide receiver target after the team decides to pass on George Kittle.

The source treats Chuba Hubbard as the clear starter for the Panthers, arguing that narratives about him losing his job are overblown. Hubbard handled 70% of rush attempts in the playoff game, scored 20 PPR points, and secured goal-line work. He is currently healthy and practicing, making him a strong value at his current ADP in the 120s-150s.

Justin Herbert is mentioned as a potential quarterback target for a team that currently lacks a starter.

The source identifies Dak Prescott as a desirable quarterback target for a team currently lacking a starter.

The source recommends Rico Dowdle as a preferred running back target at the top of the current draft board, despite noting he outplayed Chuba Hubbard for a stretch last season while Hubbard was dealing with a calf injury.

The source believes the team is actively looking to move on from Tua Tagovailoa as their starter, viewing him as a placeholder until Michael Penix Jr. is healthy, stating they have seen what he offers and are out on that.

The source expresses nervousness regarding Shedeur Sanders as a fantasy prospect compared to other late-round quarterback options, noting they are less confident in him than in Michael Penix Jr.

The source is actively drafting Michael Penix Jr. as a high-upside late-round quarterback (19th-20th round), believing the team is eager to start him over Tua Tagovailoa as soon as he is healthy.

Trey Sermon is reportedly not practicing, leading the source to prefer Rhamondre Stevenson over him in draft rankings.

The source finds drafting Trayveon Williams in the sixth round to be a difficult decision, though he remains open to the pick.

The source identifies Lamar Jackson as a preferred draft option in the sixth round.

The source expresses interest in drafting Mike Evans in the fifth round, noting that he is a solid value at that stage of the draft.

Jaylen Waddle has been significantly undervalued for most of the summer, though his ADP has recently risen to the 304 turn, reducing his value discount.

The source prefers drafting Terry McLaurin in the mid-fourth round over Emeka Egbuka, citing McLaurin's strong rookie season and secure status as his team's number one receiver.

The source is drafting Emeka Egbuka more frequently as his ADP falls, though he remains less locked in as a team's primary option compared to Terry McLaurin.

Raheem Mostert is considered a much better draft pick than Parker Washington in the context of a main event league draft at the 4.03 position.

The source notes that a drafter 'chickened out' on taking Parker Washington at the 4.03 in a main event league, implying that while he is a target, he may not be the optimal pick in high-stakes formats compared to other options like Raheem Mostert.

Keaontay Ingram is recommended as a late-round target over Caleb Johnson. He made the team as the RB3, has an interesting college profile, and could potentially earn a goal-line role or increased work as the season progresses.

The source references Joe Mixon as a historical example of players whose injury status remains a recurring mystery in fantasy football discourse.

Keaton Mitchell is used as a comparison point for late-round running back value; the source prefers drafting Josh Jacobs at pick 135 over Mitchell due to Mitchell's current mysterious injury status.

Pierre Strong Jr. is a viable late-round target (18th-20th round) in managed leagues, with a chance to see early-season rotation work. He is also identified as a depth chart option the Packers may evaluate if MarShawn Lloyd fails to secure the primary role.

The source is skeptical that AJ Dillon can immediately earn a significant role with the first team, noting he has not produced over the last two years.

The source expects Emanuel Wilson to handle clear passing-down and pass-protection duties in a projected 65-35 split with MarShawn Lloyd for Week 1.

The source tiers Trey Benson alongside Rhamondre Stevenson and Jaylen Warren when evaluating potential running back targets.

Rhamondre Stevenson is a preferred target over MarShawn Lloyd and Trey Sermon. He is a proven commodity who catches passes and is trusted by the Patriots in high-leverage situations, currently tiered alongside Jaylen Warren and Trey Benson.

Jaylen Warren is tiered alongside Rhamondre Stevenson and Trey Benson as a target, with the source noting a slight preference for Warren over MarShawn Lloyd in draft considerations.

Zamir White is positioned to potentially earn a larger role in the Raiders' backfield, especially if Josh Jacobs faces an absence or fails to return to his previous workhorse status.

MarShawn Lloyd carries significant downside risk as a 6th-7th round pick, with the potential to be one of the league's worst starters for 8-10 weeks before becoming a backup. While he is a potential advance rate piece in tournaments, his upside is heavily concentrated in the early season when Josh Jacobs is absent, and the source remains skeptical of his actual talent.

Josh Jacobs faces significant uncertainty due to legal issues, with potential outcomes ranging from missing 6-10 games to the entire season if video evidence emerges. He is currently being drafted in the 130-140 range on DraftKings; the source prefers a discount into the 10th or 11th round, noting that even if he returns, he may not reclaim his previous workhorse role.

While initially suggested as a speculative add for Week 1 if De'Andre Swift is sidelined, the source later frames previous positive takes on Travis Homer as an explicit anti-Roschon Johnson stance, indicating a lack of confidence in his fantasy outlook.

De'Andre Swift left practice early with an injury, with beat reporters noting he appeared to be in significant discomfort in his midsection; the severity of the injury remains unclear.

Bears WR Rome Odunze should be “all good” after leaving today’s practice, per @​danwiederer

I think we cursed the situation by bringing too much light to it @​dwainmcfarland Hoping D’Andre Swift is okay! He’s supposed to have a nice season

A follower just DM’d me this. Bijan at the 1.04 is a GIFT 😱

Chase Brown plays a position that has been widely devalued across the league, with smaller two- and three-year deals becoming the norm even for top-end running backs. While Brown is good, he is not in the elite tier of running backs like Saquon Barkley, Bijan Robinson, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Derrick Henry. The Bengals are also tight on money with many big-name players on the roster, making a long-term extension unlikely even if Brown were to sign a short-term deal.

Chase Brown, a 2023 fifth-round pick out of Illinois, has amassed 2,806 scrimmage yards and 22 total touchdowns over two seasons and could be primed for his best year yet behind an improved offensive line. However, the source raises concerns about his age and mileage: Brown is 26 years old (turns 27 in March 2027) and already has 642 plays from scrimmage in the NFL, plus 734 plays from scrimmage over his five-year college career (328 rushes in his final season). An Apex Fantasy Leagues study showed a sharp decline in running backs' peak seasons after they turn 27, meaning even a short-term two-year extension would see Brown turn 28 before the 2028 season, creating real risk of declining production.

Chase Brown, one of the NFL's best running backs still on a rookie contract, has not received a contract extension despite January 2025 reports from ESPN's Ben Baby that Brown and the Bengals were working on a new deal. As of the 2026 offseason, there has been mostly silence on extension negotiations, suggesting the Bengals are unlikely to get a deal done before Week 1.

DJ Turner performed like a top-tier cornerback in 2025, his first complete season since being drafted in the second round out of Michigan in 2023. The source notes this elite performance gives the Bengals confidence to use the franchise tag on him next offseason if he continues at a high level, with the expectation he remains with Cincinnati through the 2027 season barring a disastrous decline or trade offer.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports the Bengals are unlikely to get a contract extension done for fourth-year cornerback DJ Turner before Week 1, meaning Turner will likely play out the final year of his rookie contract. The source notes Turner performed like a top-tier cornerback in 2025, but it was only his first full season since being drafted in the second round in 2023; he had flashes in Year 1 before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury in Year 2. The Bengals can use the franchise tag as leverage next offseason, similar to their approach with Jessie Bates and Tee Higgins in recent years.

Fifth-round 2023 pick still on rookie contract despite strong production: 2,806 scrimmage yards and 22 total touchdowns over last two seasons; positioned for potential best year yet behind upgraded Bengals offensive line. However, extension unlikely due to league-wide devaluation of running back position—smaller two- to three-year deals now norm even for top backs. Brown not in elite tier with Saquon Barkley, Bijan Robinson, Jahmyr Gibbs, or Derrick Henry. Major concern: significant wear on tires; 734 plays from scrimmage in college (328 rushes senior year) plus 642 NFL plays already at age 26 (turns 27 March 2027). Apex Fantasy Leagues study shows sharp decline in running back peak seasons after age 27; even two-year extension would have Brown turning 28 before 2028 season, creating real risk extension doesn't pay off for salary-capped Bengals.

Fourth-year cornerback unlikely to receive contract extension before Week 1 per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler; will likely play out final year of rookie contract. Turner had a strong 2025 season as a top-tier cornerback, but it's only his first complete season since being drafted in 2023 (second round out of Michigan), with a season-ending shoulder injury in Year 2 limiting his track record. Bengals have franchise tag in back pocket as leverage for next offseason, similar to precedent with Jessie Bates (tagged and allowed to walk) and Tee Higgins (tagged twice before extension).

Rome Odunze should be fine - it was not something with the same foot he injured last season per reports so glad he’s ok No update on D’Andre Swift and now we have a break for the weekend while drafters wait

Rome Odunze (leg) believed to be "all good," per @​danwiederer.

"i dont think he understood how things work. He was mimicking what he had seen (between Belichick and Brady)... the problem is, you haven't built a relationship with Matthew Stafford" [Quoted](

Rome Odunze (left leg) believed to be "all good," per @​danwiederer.

Running back Jarquez Hunter was traded to the Dolphins in the deal that brought Tutu Atwell back to the Rams; Hunter did not make Miami's 53-man roster, indicating the Dolphins did not retain him after the trade.

Puka Nacua is suspended; Sean McVay clarified that the Tutu Atwell trade was not made with Nacua's suspension in mind, suggesting the third receiver spot was already a priority area for the Rams independent of Nacua's status.

Atwell will need to return to the production level that resulted in 81 catches in both 2023 and 2024 to make an impact in his second run with the Rams; his familiarity with the offense should support a return to that production baseline.

Traded back to the Rams from Miami for running back Jarquez Hunter; Sean McVay indicated the trade was not made with Puka Nacua's suspension in mind, but rather to address the team's unsettled third receiver spot where Atwell could make his mark in his second stint with the team; Atwell's familiarity with the offense should be a plus as he reintroduces himself after five seasons with the organization.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling, released by the Cowboys on Sunday, worked out for the Raiders on Thursday. In 2025, he appeared in five games each for San Francisco and Pittsburgh, catching four passes for 40 yards with the 49ers and 10 catches for 80 yards and a score with the Steelers. A fifth-round pick in 2018, Valdes-Scantling has caught 219 passes for 3,686 yards with 21 touchdowns in his career.

LaFleur identifies Michael Wilson as a Z receiver and says the staff will tailor his deployment to his game. Mike LaFleur: “And I think he's got that good threshold of understanding like, I play Z in this offense, who's a Z that has played well in this offense? And you guys know the names. I'm not gonna mention names. Okay, so let me study some of that stuff. But I'm not him either. You know, I'm Michael Wilson. This is my game. And it's my job and Hackett's job and our job to put him in posi...

Ferguson participated in training camp drills with the Rams' offensive line and defensive end Braden Fiske.

Stafford enters his 18th season at 38 while managing a degenerative back condition that hasn't simply disappeared; the source warns that an offensive line injury leading to a Stafford injury is 'the one way that this super talented team could see things just kind of fall apart a little bit.' Stafford is a pocket passer at this stage of his career (rushed just 10 times over the past two seasons) and relies entirely on pass protection, making the Rams' decision to neglect offensive-line depth a potentially significant gamble given his age and back vulnerability.

JT, not CMC, is the most popular pick at No. 5 on Yahoo 👀

Giants pitcher Landen Roupp rocking a Christian McCaffrey jersey 🤝

Bills QB poaches goal-line carries from Ray Davis, capping Davis' ceiling; however, high volume of red-zone trips for the Bills offense keeps Davis afloat as a potential starter despite Allen's rushing role.

Bills RB has been leaped on the depth chart by Ray Davis, indicating diminished role and reduced fantasy relevance.

Bills lead back whose health status directly impacts Ray Davis' fantasy ceiling; Davis is positioned as one injury away from inheriting the lead-back role in the explosive Bills offense.

Bills RB has leaped over Ty Johnson on depth chart and emerged as one of the more valuable handcuffs in fantasy; positioned as one injury away from lead-back role in explosive Bills offense; despite Josh Allen poaching goal-line carries, high volume of red-zone trips keeps Davis afloat as a potential starter; demonstrated efficiency when given opportunities, averaging nearly 5 yards per attempt and 8.6 yards per reception last season.

Lions lead back whose injury status directly impacts Isiah Pacheco's fantasy value; Pacheco would become an RB1 with full workload if Gibbs goes down, with no other backfield competition threatening to chip away at carries.

Lions RB signed to one-year deal after Montgomery trade; positioned as contingency back in high-powered offense expected near top of league in Off DVOA; currently on IR with back injury requiring at least four weeks recovery, making him dirt cheap in drafts and ideal IR stash; would inherit lucrative RB1 role if Jahmyr Gibbs gets injured with no other backfield competition; needs to improve from 2025 when he ranked below league average in Yards Over Expected per Attempt and averaged just 5.3 receiving yards per game.

49ers lead back is 30 years old with recent injury history that warrants caution; missed majority of 2024 season with Achilles injury; despite showing full health recovery, his age and prior injury concerns make him a risky early-round target, creating opportunity for backup Kaelon Black.

49ers rookie RB backup identified as a sleeper with significant handcuff upside; averaged 7.0 yards per carry against Las Vegas Raiders in preseason; positioned to inherit massive workload should Christian McCaffrey miss time; benefits from 49ers' star-studded pass catchers stretching defenses, creating running lanes in the middle; late-round stash with surefire starter potential if McCaffrey gets injured.

Backup RB who was more explosive in preseason than Johnson but made practice squad instead of 53-man roster. Community believes Ahmed would be called up if Swift/Monangai both injured, making Johnson even less relevant. One comment: 'Ahmed looked much more explosive in the run game in the preseason, but Johnson is more useful on special teams which is why he made the 53 man roster.'

Secondary Bears RB; Johnson's relevance contingent on both Swift and Monangai being unavailable. Community consensus is 'In Monangai we trust' and that he is the preferred backup.

Primary Bears RB; Johnson's relevance entirely dependent on Swift suffering injury. Multiple managers mention having Swift and considering Johnson as injury handcuff, suggesting Swift injury concern is driving Johnson speculation.

3rd/4th-string RB who made 53-man roster primarily for special teams and blocking, not rushing ability. OC Press Taylor said team can 'trust him if someone goes down,' but community views this as standard coach-speak. Johnson lacks agility, explosiveness, and has shown minimal fantasy upside over three years; made roster over Salvon Ahmed despite Ahmed being more explosive in preseason. Only relevant if both D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai suffer injuries; even then, Bears might sign veteran. Some managers considering dropping kickers to stash as speculative handcuff, but consensus is he's not worth a bench spot in most leagues.

Throwback to George Kittle’s rookie season 🔥 [Quoted](

Jahdae Walker is the fifth receiver on the Chicago Bears' depth chart, indicating his role in the wide receiver rotation.

Zavion Thomas is the fourth receiver on the Chicago Bears' depth chart, indicating his role in the wide receiver rotation.

Kalif Raymond is the third receiver on the Chicago Bears' depth chart behind Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III, indicating his role in the wide receiver rotation.

Zavier Scott is on the Chicago Bears practice squad and would likely be elevated to provide extra depth in the running back room if D'Andre Swift's injury causes him to miss regular-season action.

Salvon Ahmed is on the Chicago Bears practice squad and would likely be elevated to provide extra depth in the running back room if D'Andre Swift's injury causes him to miss regular-season action.

JP Richardson could see playing time with the Chicago Bears if Rome Odunze misses time due to injury. Richardson is on the practice squad and would likely be called up to provide depth in the wide receiver room.

Scotty Miller could see playing time with the Chicago Bears if Rome Odunze misses time due to injury. Miller is on the practice squad and would likely be called up to provide depth in the wide receiver room.

Kaden Davis could see playing time with the Chicago Bears if Rome Odunze misses time due to injury. Davis is on the practice squad and would likely be called up to provide depth in the wide receiver room.

Roschon Johnson could be elevated into a prominent role with the Chicago Bears if both D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai miss time due to injury. Johnson has totaled 832 yards and eight touchdowns on 188 career touches (138 rushes, 50 receptions) across his three NFL seasons to date, providing a capable third-string option.

Kyle Monangai is dealing with a hyperextended right knee, and his status will need monitoring ahead of the regular season. This injury concern is relevant given that Monangai would be the primary backup to D'Andre Swift if Swift misses time.

Kyle Monangai would serve as the Chicago Bears' lead back if D'Andre Swift misses time due to injury. The Rutgers product generated 783 yards and five touchdowns on 169 carries as a rookie, demonstrating productive early-career performance.

Luther Burden III would be elevated into the Chicago Bears' No. 1 receiver role if Rome Odunze misses time due to injury. This represents a significant opportunity for Burden to assume a prominent offensive role early in the season.

If D'Andre Swift misses time due to injury, the Chicago Bears will rely on Kyle Monangai to serve as their lead back. Monangai is a Rutgers product who generated 783 yards and five touchdowns on 169 carries as a rookie. However, Monangai is dealing with a hyperextended right knee, so his status will need monitoring ahead of the regular season.

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift suffered an injury late in Wednesday, Sept. 3 practice, holding his midsection or core area and appearing to be in significant discomfort before leaving the field and retreating to a nearby shed for medical treatment. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Wednesday night that Swift left Thursday's practice due to 'a cramp,' suggesting the injury may be minor, though the Bears have not released an official injury report.

If Rome Odunze misses time due to his injury, Luther Burden III would be elevated into the Bears' No. 1 receiver role. The Bears carry just five receivers on the 53-man roster, so they would likely call one up from the practice squad if Odunze misses time, creating opportunities for Kaden Davis, Scotty Miller, or JP Richardson to see playing time.

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze suffered an injury early in Wednesday, Sept. 3 practice during an 'install' session, hobbling and requiring trainer attention. He was not overly concerned about the injury but left practice and did not return. No official update has been provided on the nature or severity of the injury; coach Ben Johnson is not expected to speak to media until the following week, and the team will not release an official injury report until Wednesday, Sept. 9.

ESPN ranks Hunter 'right below Alec Pierce,' which community finds absurd given Pierce's own questionable value. Used as a punchline to illustrate ESPN's ranking dysfunction.

Multiple comments cite autodrafters accidentally selecting him in early rounds (round 3, round 7) alongside Hunter, resulting in poor team construction. No specific analysis of his value, but mentioned as a cautionary tale of autodraft mistakes.

Noted as having 'balled out at the end of last year' and would be a WR2 on most other teams; part of Jacksonville's deep receiver room. Community debate on whether he is a stud or merely a solid WR3; one comment says 'I am high on Washington, he isn't a stud yet either.'

Described as 'the paragon example of a WR2 and one of the most underrated players in the NFL'; cited as best WR3 in the league by multiple comments. Ranked higher than Hunter on ESPN in PPR mocks. Community consensus is he is a solid, consistent option but not a stud; some debate whether he or BTJ is the true WR1 for Jacksonville.

Ranked higher than Hunter on ESPN in PPR mocks; community split on his value. Some view him as a WR1 with potential to return to rookie-year form after sophomore slump; others note 800 yards and 3 TDs last year is not stud territory. Debate centers on whether Jacksonville's receiver room is stacked or merely deep; BTJ is consensus top target but some question if he's truly elite.

ESPN ranks him ~96th overall in non-IDP leagues despite being primarily a cornerback with minimal offensive snaps; ADP inflated by IDP league data and casual autodrafters. In standard redraft, should be undrafted or late-round flyer only. In IDP leagues, he is a top-tier defensive player (went 74th–120th pick in IDP drafts) due to dual CB/WR eligibility and potential to score points on both sides of the ball; one comment noted he scored 182 points on 17-game pace last year in tackle-heavy IDP format. Multiple reports of autodrafters accidentally selecting him in early-to-mid rounds; community consensus is ESPN has a ranking glitch conflating IDP and standard formats.

Jalen Coker is an undervalued sleeper who outscored Ted Aro and McMillan by nearly five PPR points per game over the final five games of last season; he is expected to see increased slot usage, which could boost his target rate.

Jayden Reed is a high-floor asset who should benefit from a more pass-heavy Packers offense; he has a strong track record of production when targeted, with 17 of 18 games with 6+ targets resulting in 10+ PPR points.

Chris Godwin is being moved up in rankings as ADP adjusts to Emeka Abuka's injury status; he is a strong candidate to beat his ADP if he stays healthy, having reached week one with no issues.

DeAndre Swift has top-15 upside, potentially top-12 if Kyle Mononga misses time; he has consistently finished as a top-24 back and is expected to see a feature role in the current offense.

Devontae Smith is a priority target in round three; he has a proven track record of success without A.J. Brown or Dallas Goedert, averaging 17 PPR points per game in those 20 instances with a 65% hit rate.

Despite being fun to root for and productive when healthy, J.K. Dobbins has a concerning injury history, having missed at least four games in almost every season of his career except his rookie year.

Jonah Coleman looked outstanding in the preseason and fits Denver's offense well; while he won't be a three-down back due to R.J. Harvey's role, he is a high-upside bench stash who could pay dividends if J.K. Dobbins misses time.

The source targets Blake Corum in late rounds, noting that the Rams' dominant defense could lead to game scripts that favor running the ball. While Kyron Williams is the 1A, the source believes Corum's increased explosiveness and quickness could lead to a larger snap share, providing a high-reward path if he earns more touches.

The source is a strong proponent of Parker Washington, citing his 14.4 PPR points per game from week seven on last year. Despite concerns about the backloaded nature of his production, the source believes Washington is a smash pick in the top 60 because he is versatile, has chemistry with Trevor Lawrence, and is expected to remain on the field.

The source highlights Brock Purdy as a value pick who finished as the QB1 in fantasy points per game through week 17 last year. With an improved receiving corps and a potentially weaker defense forcing more pass attempts, the source believes Purdy has more upside than commonly perceived and is a perfect target for those waiting on a quarterback.

The source is high on Sam LaPorta due to the Lions' high-powered offense and a defense that has suffered significant losses, which may force the team to be more pass-heavy. LaPorta is expected to benefit from offensive coordinator Drew Petsing's tendency to utilize tight ends in the short-area passing game, similar to the Trey McBride usage pattern.

Despite an injury tag, the source is aggressively targeting Luther Burden in the early fourth round. Burden ranked third in yards per route run among wide receivers with at least 50 targets last year. With DJ Moore and Olamide Zaccheaus gone, Burden is expected to see a significant increase in his four-target-per-game average, with the source projecting a major breakout season.

The source views Zay Flowers as an elite alpha number one wide receiver whose production was limited last year by a low-volume Ravens passing offense (420 attempts). With a new offensive coordinator and potential for a touchdown spike, the source projects Flowers could see 30 more targets if pass volume increases to 500 attempts. Flowers was already top-five in route participation and yards per target last year.

The source ranks CeeDee Lamb 11th overall in full PPR formats, noting that while it is rare for two wide receivers on the same team to finish in the top 12, the Cowboys' situation is a rare exception where both Lamb and George Pickens could provide high-end production.

The source notes that the Steelers have averaged 618 pass attempts over the last three years, providing enough volume for a concentrated passing attack. If Pickens has a big touchdown season, he has top-five wide receiver upside. The source is encouraged by reports that Pickens has moved past previous baggage and that the team is prioritizing a contract extension, which may lead to more consistent usage.

The source notes obtaining good value on Tyler Warren at the tight end position.

The source utilizes David Montgomery as their flex option.

The source identifies Matthew Golden as a potential third wide receiver option for their roster.

The source identifies Michael Wilson as a potential third wide receiver option for their roster.

The source highlights Garrett Wilson as a strong full PPR asset expected to receive a high volume of catches.

The source includes Javonte Williams as their RB2, describing the pick as 'all right'.

The source acquired Joe Burrow at a great value for their team.

The source expects a bounce-back season from Justin Jefferson after drafting him in the second round.

The source views Jonathan Taylor as an unpassable value at the ninth overall pick, citing his high PPR scoring potential.

The source frequently drafts Isaiah Likely as a fallback option when waiting on the tight end position.

The source has not drafted Trey McBride once this year, preferring Colston Loveland as a higher-priority tight end.

The source ranks Colston Loveland ahead of Trey McBride, leading to a preference for drafting Loveland.

The source considers drafting Brock Bowers in two-wide receiver leagues if he falls to a favorable spot.

The source targets Sam LaPorta if he is available at a draft spot where other top tight ends might be taken before the next pick.

The source targets Kyle Pitts early, ranking him back-to-back with Sam LaPorta and willing to draft him immediately if LaPorta is off the board.

The source groups Tucker Kraft with Sam LaPorta as a tight end option in the round five range.

The source targets Sam LaPorta early, noting they recently drafted him in round six and consider him a top-tier tight end option.

The source identifies Tyler Warren as a target in round five.

The source likes Colson Loveland as the top target in Chicago and is willing to draft him in late round three, provided the league format rewards catches.

The source prefers Trey McBride over Brock Bowers in full PPR formats, though they note they have not drafted him in their 25-30 drafts this year.

The source identifies Brock Bowers as a huge favorite at the tight end position, though they personally prefer Trey McBride in full PPR formats.

The source advises against drafting Lamar Jackson in rounds three or four, labeling it as too soon and suggesting drafters wait for better value at the position.

The source considers Caleb Williams part of a tier (alongside Justin Herbert, Dak Prescott, and Trevor Lawrence) that represents a significant value if drafted in round nine.

The source considers Trevor Lawrence part of a tier (alongside Justin Herbert, Dak Prescott, and Caleb Williams) that represents a significant value if drafted in round nine.

The source considers Dak Prescott part of a tier (alongside Justin Herbert, Trevor Lawrence, and Caleb Williams) that represents a significant value if drafted in round nine.

The source suggests using players like Garrett Nussmeier as trade throw-ins to add value to deals rather than holding them if they are not part of your core roster.

Curtis Rourke is a quarterback the organization is very excited about; despite a camp injury, he is a player to monitor as a deep-roster stash.

Garrett Nussmeier is a high-upside stash who is developing behind a top-tier quarterback; the source believes he has the talent to play and should be rostered.

Jalen Daniels has earned the backup quarterback role in Tampa Bay as a UDFA, which signals high organizational confidence; he is a mobile quarterback with a big arm who is a must-own in deeper formats.

Jack Strand is a D2 standout who has impressed the source; he is a deep-roster stash who could see playing time if the Falcons' quarterback situation falters.

Drew Allar is a highly regarded quarterback stash within the Steelers' infrastructure; he has looked the part during the preseason and is benefiting from a strong development environment.

Anthony Richardson remains the source's number one quarterback stash due to his elite physical tools and tantalizing upside; despite early career struggles, he is a must-target in trades if available at a discount.

Cole Kmet is a proven, high-quality player who is currently blocked by elite competition; he is a recommended stash who could see significant value if his situation changes.

Marlon Klein is an athletic tight end with the Texans who has impressed during training camp; he is viewed as a potential heir apparent to Dalton Schultz, who is in the final year of his contract.

Elijah Higgins is a converted wide receiver with excellent movement skills entering the final year of his contract with the Cardinals; he has looked impressive in limited opportunities and is a recommended deep-bench stash.

Theo Johnson is a talented prospect entering the final year of his contract; he is currently dealing with a minor injury but is a strategic stash candidate to hold in anticipation of a potential move or increased role.

Michael Mayer is a top-tier dynasty stash entering a contract year, with the source projecting a career year; he remains a talented player who could see increased usage if he moves to a new team or if the Raiders utilize him alongside Brock Bowers.

Pat Freiermuth is a prime late-round stash candidate who is essentially free in dynasty formats; while he has dealt with concussions, he is entering the peak of his career at 27 and could regain fantasy relevance if he secures more targets.

Freiermuth is a free late-round stash who is considered a talented player despite a disappointing previous season and low consumer confidence.

Horn is a true route craftsman and explosive player who can be acquired cheaply, though his upside is currently limited by the Panthers' passing environment.

Harris is highly regarded as a potential stud for the upcoming season and is a recommended stash.

Whittington is a stash candidate who is considered a good player despite the Rams' crowded target environment.

Bond is a stash candidate who consistently makes explosive highlight plays and is described as 'good at football'.

Bryant is a stash candidate who fits the mold of what the Broncos are trying to do to eventually replace Courtland Sutton.

Williams has seen a significant boost in opportunity and is showing explosiveness, making him a relevant stash after previously being considered 'dead' for fantasy purposes.

Tucker is a forgotten asset in many leagues who has shown success and remains a viable stash for the Raiders' wide receiver room.

Heidenreich is a versatile seventh-round rookie for the Steelers with advanced metrics who made the roster, potentially making Caleb Johnson expendable.

Wilson is a recommended hold who showed promise with the Packers last year when given opportunities.

Brooks is an undervalued dynasty stash who is likely to see touches in the Packers' backfield alongside Marshawn Lloyd. He is described as a cheap DFS play that is currently unrostered in many leagues.

Miller is a recommended stash due to his efficiency when healthy, despite his injury history. With Devin Neal out for the year and Alvin Kamara potentially banged up, Miller has a path to relevance.

Jalen Wright has moved into the top spot among the Dolphins' backup running backs.

The source prefers Isaiah Davis over Braylon Allen as the primary backup running back for the Jets.

Davis is considered a high-end handcuff running back that should be rostered in dynasty formats.

Bigsby showed strong efficiency metrics last year among players with 40+ attempts, ranking 4th in yards after contact per attempt and 3rd in missed tackles per attempt with a 7.9% explosive run rate.

Saints waived RB Devin Neal with an injury settlement after he was on the outside of the RB competition due to injuries; his hamstring could not heal, as evidenced in the game against the Los Angeles Rams. When he played, his performance was positive, but the injury prevented him from competing for a roster spot. The injury settlement allows the Saints to move on while Neal receives payment for time out, and both parties can re-engage after the settlement period plus three weeks.

Saints waived RB Devin Neal with injury settlement after he was on the outside of the RB competition due to hamstring injury; when healthy, his performance was positive, but the hamstring could not heal as evidenced in the game against the Los Angeles Rams; he could have been a nice long-term RB option for the Saints but the injury settlement move suggests he will not be available for the 2026 season.

The former 49ers receiver was among the Raiders' 16-player workout Thursday as Las Vegas evaluated potential help for a receiver room that head coach Klint Kubiak publicly challenged during the preseason, saying the team was 'still looking' for someone it could count on Sundays.

The receiver is among the current Raiders receiver group alongside Tre Tucker and Jalen Nailor. Head coach Klint Kubiak publicly challenged the receiver room during the preseason, saying Las Vegas was 'still looking' for someone it could count on Sundays, indicating uncertainty about the depth and reliability of the current group.

The receiver is currently on injured reserve, contributing to a depleted Raiders receiver room heading into Week 1 alongside Dont'e Thornton Jr., Corey Rucker and Chase Roberts.

The rookie receiver was placed on injured reserve after missing all three preseason games, joining Justin Shorter, Corey Rucker and Chase Roberts among Raiders receivers currently on IR. This injury situation has left the receiver room depleted heading into Week 1.

The 32-year-old veteran receiver was among the Raiders' 16-player workout Thursday. Valdes-Scantling is being evaluated as potential help for a receiver room that head coach Klint Kubiak publicly challenged during the preseason, saying Las Vegas was 'still looking' for someone it could count on Sundays.

Mendoza, the Raiders' prized No. 1 overall pick, is positioned as a key component in Klint Kubiak's offensive system. A consistent and effective ground game is instrumental in the play-action concepts Kubiak plans to deploy with Mendoza, requiring the ability to run the ball for yards and aggressively sell a run to freeze defenders, facilitating intermediate and deep shots downfield via the air attack. The offense requires all components — offensive line, quarterback, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends — to work in unison, with running backs playing critical roles as blockers, outlet targets, or receiving options in play-action situations.

Cousins, the Raiders' veteran quarterback, is central to the success of Klint Kubiak's offensive system. A consistent and effective ground game is instrumental in the play-action concepts Kubiak plans to deploy with Cousins, requiring the ability to run the ball for yards and aggressively sell a run to freeze defenders, facilitating intermediate and deep shots downfield via the air attack. The offense requires all components — offensive line, quarterback, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends — to work in unison, with running backs playing critical roles as blockers, outlet targets, or receiving options in play-action situations.

Hemby, an undrafted free agent practice-squad addition to the Raiders backfield, brings the skillsets required to operate in Klint Kubiak's offense, which demands running backs be effective route runners, receivers, and pass protectors. The system heavily utilizes pre-snap motion and formation shifts that position running backs as perimeter receivers or in the slot, requiring high-volume target involvement and complex pass protection responsibilities.

Ogunbowale, a veteran practice-squad addition to the Raiders backfield, brings the skillsets required to operate in Klint Kubiak's offense, which demands running backs be effective route runners, receivers, and pass protectors. The system heavily utilizes pre-snap motion and formation shifts that position running backs as perimeter receivers or in the slot, requiring high-volume target involvement and complex pass protection responsibilities.

Laube is one of three tailbacks on the Raiders' initial 53-man roster and has demonstrated the versatility required by Klint Kubiak's offense. At 5-foot-9 and 204 pounds, Laube has shown the ability to pass protect despite his smaller frame. As a receiving running back, Laube showcased slippery receiving skills during the preseason, displaying more confidence than he did under the prior two coaching regimes. This improvement in receiving ability and confidence aligns with Kubiak's system, which demands running backs be effective route runners and high-volume targets, often finishing in the top five in targets and receptions. Laube's demonstrated one-cut decisiveness and pass protection ability position him as a fit for the scheme's demands.

Washington, a 2026 draft rookie, is one of three tailbacks on the Raiders' initial 53-man roster, signaling confidence in his fit within Klint Kubiak's offense. At 6-foot-2 and 228 pounds, Washington should be able to handle the pass protection demands of Kubiak's system. Most notably, Washington has demonstrated the decisiveness required by the scheme, exhibiting the 'Three Bs' — bang (slicing through the primary crease vertically), bend (cutting back against the grain on backside lane), and bounce (bouncing it outside to the edge to out-run defenders). Kubiak has incorporated gap and power schemes into his play-calling to help Washington, who arrived from Arkansas's heavy gap system, by calling toss and perimeter plays to create space, give Washington time to mentally acclimate, and allow blocks to develop. This tailored approach suggests confidence in Washington's ability to thrive in the system.

Jeanty is the Raiders' workhorse running back in Klint Kubiak's offense, which requires highly specific skillsets both mental and physical. The scheme heavily utilizes pre-snap motion, split-back sets, and formation shifts that call for running backs to line up as perimeter receivers or in the slot before motion calls them back to traditional tailback spots. Jeanty must be an effective route runner and receiver, as running backs are high-volume targets in Kubiak's system, often finishing in the top five in targets and receptions. Additionally, he must handle complex pass protection on obvious passing downs, using snap-decision making while protecting the quarterback against defensive fronts and blitzes. At 5-foot-8 and 208 pounds, Jeanty has shown the ability to pass protect. The scheme also demands one-cut decisiveness in the backfield aligned with zone blocking concepts, where hesitation is costly.

Jeanty suffered an ankle injury on August 23 during practice after diving for a low pass and landing awkwardly, raising initial concern. However, the Raiders did not place him on injured reserve with a designated-to-return qualifier during cutdown day, suggesting he avoided a serious injury. Head coach Klint Kubiak stated: 'He's still on the mend and we're still working to get him back. We got another week to assess how he's going to look going into this first game, but we're counting on him.' The team's decision to keep him on the 53-man roster and count on his availability portends positive recovery trajectory.

Dylan Laube, one of three tailbacks on the Raiders' 53-man roster, possesses the specific skillsets required for Klint Kubiak's offense. At 5-foot-9 and 204 pounds, Laube has demonstrated pass protection ability despite his smaller frame and showcased slippery receiving skills during preseason action, displaying more confidence than in prior coaching regimes. Laube must excel as a route runner and receiver in Kubiak's system, where running backs are high-volume targets often finishing in the top five in targets and receptions. The system requires running backs to line up as perimeter receivers or in the slot before motion or shift calls, creating mismatches and forcing defenses to show their hand with coverages and blitzes.

Mike Washington Jr., a 2026 draft pick and key part of the Raiders' RB committee, brings the specific skillsets required for Klint Kubiak's offense. At 6-foot-2 and 228 pounds, Washington has demonstrated decisiveness and the "Three Bs" (bang, bend, bounce) — slicing through the primary crease vertically, cutting back against the grain on backside lanes, or bouncing it outside to the edge to out-run defenders. Washington arrived from Arkansas's heavy gap system and Kubiak has adapted by calling toss and perimeter plays to help create space and give Washington time to mentally acclimate. Washington must excel as a route runner and receiver in Kubiak's system, where running backs often finish in the top five in targets and receptions, and must handle pass protection against complex defensive fronts and blitzes.

Ashton Jeanty suffered an ankle injury on August 23 during practice after diving for a low pass and landing awkwardly, causing initial concern with inability to put weight on his right foot. However, the Raiders avoided placing him on injured reserve with a designated-to-return qualifier during cutdown day, signaling the team expects recovery and his availability as the starting workhorse running back. Head coach Klint Kubiak stated: "He's still on the mend and we're still working to get him back. We got another week to assess how he's going to look going into this first game, but we're counting on him." At 5-foot-8 and 208 pounds, Jeanty has demonstrated pass protection ability required in Kubiak's system despite his smaller frame.

Bears OC Press Taylor earlier on Thursday before practice started: "(Roschon Johnson) proved to us that he's trustworthy. He can be in those situations if it comes down to it, where we need him to carry a heavier load than we expected."

Might be worth stashing Roschon Johnson while we wait the D’Andre Swift news.
