Scott Barrett Reveals His 2026 EXODIA PICKS - Fantasy Football is HERE!

Anthony Richardson was the 2023 'Exodia' pick, but his breakout potential was cut short due to injury. The source also notes he is not currently a starter.

The source is bullish on Brian Thomas Jr., citing his all-time great rookie season and a high-floor, high-ceiling profile. Despite concerns about the Jaguars' quarterback situation, the source projects mid-range WR1 upside at his current draft price. The source also notes that Thomas Jr. faced the toughest schedule of any wide receiver in the first half of last year, suggesting potential for a strong start to the season.

The source recommends Brock Bowers as a target specifically for eight-team leagues, noting that his value proposition changes significantly based on the size of the league.

The source highlights Chris Godwin's past success in the Liam Cohen slot role, noting he finished behind only Ja'Marr Chase in fantasy points per game and outperformed Mike Evans when both were healthy.

Christian Watson is considered a borderline 'Exodia' pick, noted for his extreme efficiency (17.5 PPG in games with 75%+ route share) and a projected full-time role. He is one of only five wide receivers with three seasons of 2.5+ yards per route run over the last four years. While the source loves him, he is ranked behind Mike Evans in the same draft range.

The source is critical of Chuba Hubbard, citing his poor yards-per-target history, lack of explosive runs, and limited receiving upside as reasons why Jonathan Brooks could overtake him for the starting role.

The source notes that DJ Moore was a top-three receiver in screen targets last year, which serves as a benchmark for the type of usage expected for other players in the offense.

Dallas Goedert is a strong tight end two target, benefiting from the absence of A.J. Brown and a favorable early-season strength of schedule, making him an ideal pairing for tight ends who might start the season slowly.

Dalton Kincaid is highlighted as a tight end with significant upside, making him a recommended target for fantasy managers.

The source projects David Montgomery for a bellcow role in Houston, citing sources that indicate he will receive the 'Joe Mixon role' at worst. Despite concerns about a 50/50 split, the source claims the team intentionally limited his practice snaps to keep him healthy. Montgomery is expected to see high volume, with the source projecting up to 325 touches, and is currently undervalued with an ADP in the fifth or sixth round.

Drake Maye is identified as an 'Exodia' pick, defined as a player who is massively underpriced based on opportunity and possesses league-winning upside. The source notes he finished one vote short of MVP in 2025 and argues that his fantasy value is driven by his significant mispricing relative to his potential role.

George Kittle is a value pick everywhere outside of ESPN, typically being drafted as the TE9. His ADP is likely suppressed due to his recent injury.

Isaiah Likely is projected to be highly productive in the first half of the season while Malik Nabers rounds into form, making him a recommended tight end two target.

Jakobi Meyers has maintained a consistent role throughout his career, having recorded a target share exceeding 20% in every season he has played.

The source is drafting Jalen McMillan as an arbitrage play and direct handcuff to Mike Evans in case of injury.

Jayden Daniels is identified as the 2024 'Exodia' pick, noted for being drafted around QB15 and finishing as a top-six quarterback.

Joe Mixon is used as a historical benchmark for high-volume running back usage, having recorded 300 touches in a referenced season.

Despite injury concerns and a practice-limited schedule, Jonathan Brooks is a high-upside target in the 9th round. The source believes he can win the starting job on talent alone, noting his suddenness, route-running ability, and pass-protection skills, comparing his movement style to Alvin Kamara.

Josh Jacobs stands to benefit from a potential increase in team pass rate, which could rise by 2%. This shift, combined with his upgraded role, makes him a positive target for increased volume and target share.

Justin Fields is highlighted as the 2022 'Exodia' pick, who improved from a QB20 ADP to a QB6 finish. He is also used as a historical benchmark for Malik Willis's potential fantasy floor and ceiling.

Scott Barrett identifies rookie season Kareem Hunt as his first 'Exodia' pick, noting that he was an elite value in round 14 before the Spencer Ware injury, effectively winning leagues for those who drafted him.

The source highlights Luther Burden as a high-upside play, citing his elite rookie yards per route run—ranking among historical greats like Odell Beckham Jr. and Justin Jefferson. The source argues that Ben Johnson's offense, which funnels production through the slot, creates an 'impossible to fail' setup for Burden. While acknowledging concerns about his route precision and the quarterback situation, the source emphasizes his elite run-after-catch ability and potential to dominate screen targets. The source also notes that injury concerns regarding Burden are overblown and he is currently fine.

Malik Willis is identified as a high-upside 'Exodia' quarterback who is priced extremely low. Over the last two years, he leads all QBs in fantasy points per drop back (23.6 per start), outperforming Josh Allen. He averages 64.3 rushing yards per four quarters, nearly 10 yards more than Lamar Jackson's career average. He is viewed as a 2022 Justin Fields-type asset with a floor of a low-end QB1 and overall QB1 upside, especially given his elite athleticism and improved mechanics under Matt LaFleur.

The source identifies MarShawn Lloyd as an 'Exodia' pick, recommending him as a draft target if he can be acquired near his late August ADP, though noting that his price has risen in many leagues.

Mike Evans is designated as an 'Exodia' pick, meaning he is one of the most mispriced players in drafts with league-winning upside. Currently drafted as WR20, the source argues he has top-six upside. Evans has been top-three in air yards for three consecutive years and maintains elite efficiency, averaging 77.1 yards and 17.9 fantasy points per game when playing over 55% of snaps. The source considers him a 'marriage made in heaven' for the current offensive system.

The source considers Parker Washington the most mispriced player in drafts, citing his elite production after the Jaguars' bye week. In the final four games, he commanded a 30% target share and averaged over 100 yards per game. His value is tied to the 'Liam Cohen slot role,' which historically produces high-end fantasy output, similar to Chris Godwin, Wan'Dale Robinson, and Cooper Kupp. Despite concerns regarding target competition from Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas Jr., the source projects mid-range WR1 upside. Additionally, his stylistic fit with Trevor Lawrence, who tends to lock onto his first read, is viewed as a major positive.

The source expresses concern regarding Rome Odunze's fantasy outlook, specifically citing worries about a foot injury.

Spencer Ware's injury is cited as the catalyst that solidified Kareem Hunt's status as a league-winning 'Exodia' pick during his rookie season.

Tee Higgins is a majorly mispriced 'Exodia' pick on ESPN, where he is ranked as the WR22 despite the source's WR13 ranking. In games played with Joe Burrow over the last two years, Higgins averaged 8 targets and 17.5 fantasy points per game, which would rank as the WR6.

The source expresses skepticism regarding Trevor Lawrence, noting that his strong second-half performance was largely driven by a favorable strength of schedule. The source also mentions internal team concerns, stating that Lawrence was nearly benched during Doug Pederson's tenure before the decision was vetoed by management. However, the source notes he tends to lock onto his first read, which can be a stylistic fit for slot receivers who separate quickly.

Tucker Kraft is a 'conditional Exodia' pick, specifically on ESPN where his ADP is described as wonky and way too late. He is considered a high-value target on that platform.

Zay Flowers is an 'Exodia' pick on Sleeper, with the source expecting a 'PPR cheat code' season. The outlook is driven by potential upgrades in the Ravens' offensive scheme under Declan Doyle and a lack of target competition if Mark Andrews declines.
