2026 Fantasy Football Projections: | Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast Ep. 887

Value season is here, and finding the guys before the market does is the whole game. On this episode of the Dynasty Nerds Podcast, Garret Price is joined by JJ Zachariason of Late Round QB to trade names they think are badly mispriced heading into the year. 📈 Listen to This Episode:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTube JJ opens with Stefon Diggs, and the metrics say the washed label is flat wrong. The fit next to Terry McLaurin might be the cleanest one on the board. Garret counters with Jaylen Waddle, whose new role and volume path could push him from a guy people shrug at into legitimate wide receiver one territory. The two also dig into why chasing the X label is one of the most common mistakes fantasy managers make. Terrance Ferguson carries a downfield profile unlike any tight end in football, Jonah Coleman draws an Alvin Kamara comparison that is hard to unhear, and Wan'Dale Robinson might quietly split targets with Carnell Tate far more evenly than anyone expects. Quinshon Judkins closes it out with a Nick Chubb comp and a path into the running back one conversation.

2026 Fantasy Football Projections: Garret's Full Positional Breakdown Projections season is here, and the numbers do not always match the narrative. Garret Price walks Rich Dotson and Matt O'Hara through his full 2026 projections, and the guys push back hard on more than a few of them. 🏈 Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify▶️ YouTube Josh Allen projects as the only true difference maker at the position, with Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson right behind him. The bigger takeaway is what happens next. From quarterback two down to quarterback 13, there is barely a two point per game spread. Rich argues Trevor Lawrence and Justin Herbert both deserve a bump, and makes a bold call on Patrick Mahomes missing the top 12 entirely. Jahmyr Gibbs edges Bijan Robinson at the top, with Christian McCaffrey and De'Von Achane completing the elite tier. Rich pounds the table for David Montgomery and Jonathan Brooks as value plays. At receiver, Ja'Marr Chase and Puka Nacua sit well clear of the field. And George Kittle lands at tight end four coming off an Achilles, which surprised everyone in the room. Compare it all to the current Dynasty Rankings.

Brown opens things up with a 20 spot gap between hosts, and the conversation turns into a clinic on how to rank a 29 year old who still produces. Kenneth Walker III gets a surprising comparison to Javonte Williams, and one host argues the Kansas City backfield history matters more than the talent. Then Bryce Young brings out a side of Matt nobody has heard before, and Mark Andrews splits the room on whether the wheels are already coming off. Rich gave up Tyler Shough and Jaylen Waddle for KC Concepcion, and he explains exactly why he is fine getting waxed publicly for it.

Training camp season means projection season, and the market does not always agree with the film. On this episode of the Dynasty Nerds Podcast, Garret Price and Andrew Mott play a guess the line game, stacking Garret's season long projections against the posted totals to see who is really out over their skis. 🎯 Listen to This Episode:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTube Caleb Williams and Jaxson Dart kick things off, and one of those passing totals is so low that Garret calls it a hard pass on the spot. Ashton Jeanty does not crack a thousand rushing yards in the projection, while rookie Jeremiyah Love lands closer to him than anyone expected. Marvin Harrison Jr. gets a make or break number, and Parker Washington quietly leads every Jacksonville receiver, including Brian Thomas Jr. 😳 The second half is where it turns. Justin Herbert, Malik Willis, Omarion Hampton, Bhayshul Tuten, and Tetairoa McMillan all get graded, and Garret rescues his score in the clutch. Then comes Luther Burden III, whose touchdown number should give the hype train pause. Line up your own guesses against the dynasty rankings and see how you stack up.

The first real game action of the year gave us plenty to chew on. Garret Price and Andrew Mott sort through preseason week one and separate the performances that actually matter from the ones you should forget by Thursday. 🏈 Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify▶️ YouTube De'Zhaun Stribling opened with eight targets and seven catches, and the guys break down what that means in a receiver room where nearly everyone else is 30 or older. DJ Moore looked like the forgotten man of the offseason finally waking up, and Andrew explains what a contender should be willing to pay. Ty Simpson went 21 of 25 with two scores, while Drew Allar threw two touchdowns and ran for another. Garret lays out why he is firmly on Team Allar in that Pittsburgh quarterback race behind Aaron Rodgers. Plus KC Concepcion, Denzel Boston, Ja'Kobi Lane, and Elijah Sarratt all get their moment. Kaytron Allen carried it 23 times for 85 yards and a touchdown, and Garret argues that is actually bad news. Dean Connors flashed but faces a brutal depth chart. And on the injury front, Breece Hall, Jeremiyah Love, and Jordyn Tyson all gave their managers a reason to sweat before real football even starts. Update your board with the latest Dynasty Rankings.

Dynasty Tight End Rankings: The Position Has Never Looked Better The tight end tier that used to hold two names now holds seven. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price close out the positional primer with the dynasty tight end top 12, plus the dark horses and the one guy they are all steering around. 🏈 Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify▶️ YouTube Brock Bowers is the unanimous tight end one and the only one Garret would consider in the first round of a superflex startup.

Colston Loveland and Tyler Warren follow, with Loveland carrying the ceiling and Warren the floor. Kyle Pitts is climbing boards mid recording, while Harold Fannin Jr. and Tucker Kraft round out the group. Past tight end eight, the guys say the difference maker window closes entirely.

Wide receiver week rolls on, and the top of the dynasty board is starting to feel a lot less settled than it looks. On this episode of the Dynasty Nerds Podcast, Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price build their consensus top 12, hunt for dark horses, and name the guys they are flat out avoiding. 🎯 Listen to This Episode:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTube Ja'Marr Chase, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Puka Nacua are locked in, but the real debate starts right behind them. The guys make the case that CeeDee Lamb, Justin Jefferson, and Amon-Ra St. Brown are living on borrowed time at these prices, with a loaded 2027 class waiting to push them down. Malik Nabers, Drake London, Tetairoa McMillan, Garrett Wilson, Emeka Egbuka, and Carnell Tate all get their moment, and one of them draws a Larry Fitzgerald comparison.

Training camp hype season is here, and every rookie is suddenly a breakout waiting to happen.

Dynasty Running Back Rankings: The Top 12, Dark Horses, and Guys to Avoid Part two of the positional primer lands on the most volatile spot in fantasy football. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price lay out the consensus top 12 dynasty running backs and disagree hard on what any of them are actually worth in a trade. 🏈 Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify▶️ YouTube Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs sit alone at the top, and the crew agrees almost nobody dislodges them. Below that, Ashton Jeanty, De'Von Achane, Jeremiyah Love, and Omarion Hampton form a tier, though Rich is not convinced Hampton belongs in it and would rather have Breece Hall. The real fireworks come over price. Garret will pay three firsts for the top two and two firsts plus for the next tier. Rich has a personal rule against paying multiple firsts for any running back, and explains exactly why. Treveon Henderson gets called the hardest player in the sport to rank. RJ Harvey, Jonathan Brooks, and Bhayshul Tuten get the dark horse nods for a top six finish. On the avoid list, Chase Brown, Josh Jacobs, and one popular rookie whose ADP has climbed past the guys these three would rather roster. Compare their board to the current Dynasty Rankings.
