PodcastField’s Top 25 players in Fantasy Football | Fantasy Focus 🏈August 20, 2026

From the episode

you are willing to out of the gates, spend a ton of money and land Christian McCaffrey and Josh Allen and Puka Nakua, but the rest of your roster is going to be basically waiver wire level players.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Nakua is a stars-and-scrubs anchor in salary cap leagues.

Used as an example of a stars and scrubs approach in salary cap drafts, where you spend heavily on elite players like Puka Nakua early and fill the rest of your roster with waiver wire level players.
