PodcastWeek 6 Winners & Losers: Biggest Takeaways From Every Game! (10/18 Fantasy Foot...October 19, 2026

From the episode

And the permanent fixture in the losers list, Josh Downs. This is one that's just so disgusting. And maybe a lot of it is Daniel Jones, who's playing awful football. But also, I'm kind of getting a little bit of Deontay Johnson vibes from where all of the data and the film guys say how good this guy is. And maybe it should result in better production at some point. I would assume Josh Downs is going to be dropped in a few leagues.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Downs remains a bust with eight targets; Daniel Jones struggles limit his upside despite Warren absence.

Downs is a recurring loser despite receiving eight targets; the source attributes poor production to Daniel Jones playing poorly and an ineffective Giants offense. With Tyler Warren out, Downs and Keenan Allen were expected to benefit, but Allen caught eight of 19 combined targets between them, outproducing Downs. The source suggests Downs may be dropped in leagues and expresses uncertainty about when he can be started confidently.
