PodcastMike McDaniel to Unlock Ladd McConkey? | 10 Fantasy Football Breakouts Backed b...August 15, 2026

From the episode

Colson Loveland, Bears second year tight end. I think that he is an easy breakout candidate... he was the first pick that Ben Johnson made after becoming the head coach of the Chicago Bears.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Loveland is a breakout candidate poised for high volume in a pass-heavy Bears offense.

Andrew Erickson identifies Loveland as a primary breakout candidate, noting his elite rookie finish (top five in PFF receiving grade, yards per route run, and points per game from week seven onward). Erickson expects the Bears' poor defense to force high-volume passing, potentially allowing Loveland to command a massive target share similar to Trey McBride's usage.
