Dynasty Underground - What We're AFRAID to be WRONG about!!! // Dynasty Fantasy Football 2026

There is potential for AJ Brown to be utilized as a 'big slot' target hog in the Patriots' offense, especially if Romeo Dobbs and Kyle Williams occupy the outside roles. This formation could make him a 'queen chess piece' in the offense.

Antonio Brown is cited as an all-time great wide receiver who maintained elite efficiency throughout his career, including a 2.95 yards per route run in his rookie season and five consecutive seasons with over 1,300 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Despite a minor ankle injury, Ashton Janty remains an elite running back prospect. His ADP drop to the 11th round in some drafts is considered 'free money' for managers, as he is expected to be the starter for the Raiders.

Brandon Aiyuk is benefiting from the negative publicity surrounding Jed York, with the podcast hosts noting that Aiyuk's previous off-field controversies pale in comparison to York's recent legal issues.

The analysts debate whether Deshaun Stribling is the WR1 of his class, noting that questioning consensus rankings is a way to gain profit by betting against market overcorrections. One The Underground. Posted mentions selling Stribling for a 2027 second-round pick, highlighting the fear of being wrong about a player's breakout potential.

Deshaun Watson is viewed as a sociopathic figure who is tone-deaf to his own situation; despite being named the starter, he is expected to lead the Browns to a 2-3 win season, making him a poor fantasy asset.

Jadarian Price is a high-conviction target for The Underground. Posted, who ranks him as the RB21 for his 2026 rookie season. Despite concerns about his college production profile and lack of pass-catching volume, The Underground. Posted believes Price has the potential to be a strong pass-catcher and could see increased usage if the new offensive coordinator shifts away from the previous situational usage.

The analysts express fear that they were wrong about Jadarian Price, who was a first-round pick and is being talked up as a pass-catcher. Despite initial skepticism and a 'light fade' during the pre-draft process, there is concern he could be an explosive running back with significant opportunity in Seattle, potentially leading to high-scoring fantasy days early in the season.

The arrival of Kayshaun Boutte is viewed as bad news for Jaden Higgins, who was previously expected to move into the slot and interchange with Nico Collins. Boutte's presence in the outside role likely limits Higgins' projected usage.

While Kyle Williams is not expected to earn enough targets to be a consistent fantasy producer, he is recognized as a talented player who will likely have some big plays during the season. He is expected to play on the outside, potentially allowing AJ Brown to move into the slot.

The hosts express significant concern that Ladd McConkey may be overpriced and potentially just a 'good role player' rather than a target-hogging WR1, noting he failed to earn targets at a high rate last year and never hit a high dominator rating in college.

The hosts are conflicted on Matthew Golden, acknowledging his talent but questioning if he can reach a high ceiling; they compare his potential trajectory to Rome Odunze or Alec Pierce, noting he has opportunity in a consolidated Green Bay receiver room but faces competition from Dontayvion Wicks, Jayden Reed, and Christian Watson.

The hosts are fading Mike Washington despite his preseason performance. His lack of college production compared to teammates makes his current second-round dynasty value unsustainable, and they would sell him for a 2027 second-round pick.

The market is high on Washington, viewing him as a super-athletic prospect with significant upside if he earns carries. Following the Janty injury, his value saw a price correction, with some owners willing to pay a second-round pick. While he lacks a strong production profile or pedigree, he could realistically command 180 carries if he earns the team's trust, making him a target for those betting against market overcorrection.

The acquisition of Kayshaun Boutte is viewed as a positive development for Nico Collins, as it allows Boutte to play the 'sacrificial X' role, freeing Collins to move all over the formation. His value is seen as skyrocketing for the 2026 season due to this tactical shift.

Omar Cooper has seen a drastic fall in value, struggling to secure a clear role on the depth chart behind Adonai Mitchell and fighting for the WR3 spot. Despite The Underground. Posted's belief that selling now is a mistake, the lack of immediate production and preseason drops have created significant concern.

The hosts mention being heavily invested in Oronde Gadsden as a sleeper prospect within the Chargers' passing game context.

The Underground. Posted is conflicted on Parker Washington, acknowledging his dominant 10-game stretch last season but noting his previous lack of production. While some view him as the clear WR1, The Underground. Posted remains cautious about whether he can sustain his high yards-per-route-run efficiency.

Parker Washington is viewed as a potential breakout candidate who is not coming off the field; the hosts regret trading him away and are actively targeting him in redraft leagues despite his rising price, noting he is in the 'hall of dudes we thought sucked, but might be actually good'.

Quentin Johnston performed better than expected last season, which could impact the target share and overall fantasy outlook for Ladd McConkey in the Chargers' offense.

The Underground. Posted expresses trepidation regarding Rome Odunze's outlook, noting that while he remains hopeful, the foot injury and target competition from DJ Moore and Colston Loveland create a wide range of outcomes. A 'hit' for Odunze is defined as exceeding 1,000 yards and seven touchdowns, while a 'miss' would be closer to 700 yards.

Shedeur Sanders is viewed as a potential mid-season starter for the Browns. While he struggled with EPA per play last season, he has improved weapons and a better offensive coordinator in Monken. His peak trade value is likely a second-round pick.

Charbonnet is viewed as a player worth a second-round pick when healthy. His role in the Seattle offense last year involved a significant split with Ken Walker, totaling 184 carries. There is concern about his potential to return and create a platoon situation that limits the upside of other running backs.

The looming return of Zach Charbonnet creates uncertainty for Ken Walker's workload; Charbonnet recorded 12 touchdowns to Walker's five last season, and the carry discrepancy was relatively close at 221 to 184, suggesting Charbonnet could remain a significant situational factor or goal-line threat.
