EVEN BOLDER Predictions | Dynasty Fantasy Football Podcast Ep. 900

Fantasy Football Players to Watch Closely in Week 1 Week 1 can create some of the best buying opportunities of the entire fantasy football season. Garret Price and Andrew Mott break down the players they will be watching most closely as roles, usage, and target shares finally become real. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Ladd McConkey enters the season with a wide range of outcomes. The biggest question is whether his new offense manufactures touches for him or leaves him fighting for a smaller target share. Bucky Irving presents a similar situation. His dynasty price has fallen, but strong early usage could quickly turn him back into a buying opportunity. The rookie situations might be even more important. Ted Hurst has an opportunity to carve out an early role in Tampa Bay, while Luther Burden enters Week 1 surrounded by massive expectations. Garret is also watching Jonah Coleman closely. Even a handful of early touches could tell us Denver wants him involved sooner than expected. Week 1 will not answer everything, but these are exactly the situations where dynasty values can start moving fast.

Rich Dotson and Garret Price are back with even crazier calls for the 2026 fantasy football season, searching for the unlikely outcomes that could completely reshape dynasty values.

The predictions keep escalating from there. KC Concepcion gets a top 16 wide receiver call, while Trevor Lawrence is projected to finish as the QB2 and push his way into the first round of superflex startup drafts. Then there is Jameson Williams. Rich lays out a path for Williams to actually outscore Amon-Ra St. Brown, easily one of the hottest takes of either episode. Garret brings his own chaos by predicting Washington fails to produce even one top 36 fantasy wide receiver. Add massive seasons for Joe Burrow and several unexpected rookie breakouts, and these predictions could make today's rankings look very different by January.

Rich Dotson and Garret Price fire off their bold fantasy football predictions before the first games kick off. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Could Derrick Henry finally fall outside the RB1 tier? Rich believes age, workload, and changes along Baltimore's offensive line could finally catch up with one of fantasy football's most reliable running backs. The wide receiver predictions get even hotter. CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens are both projected to miss WR1 status in one of the episode's biggest swings, while Rashee Rice is predicted to finish outside the top 24. Not every prediction is negative. Jordan Addison gets a top 18 call as Garret bets on Minnesota's passing attack creating more explosive opportunities. There are also aggressive predictions for Jonah Coleman, Javonte Williams, DJ Moore, Dalton Kincaid, and several other players who could completely reshape fantasy rankings by the end of 2026.

Dynasty Buys Before Week 1: Get Them Before the Price Jumps The NFL season is finally here, and some dynasty values could change fast once the games begin. Garret Price and Andrew Mott identify players they want to acquire now before a breakout or increased opportunity sends their price higher. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Denzel Boston had consistent training camp buzz before the attention shifted elsewhere, creating a potential buying window before his role becomes clearer. TreVeyon Henderson has also fallen significantly in dynasty value despite already showing high-end upside. If his role grows again, that discount may disappear quickly. Not every target is an unproven player. Garrett Wilson has already produced at a high level, but improved quarterback play could finally push him back toward the top of the position. The guys also make cases for De'Zhaun Stribling and Jordan Addison, two receivers with clear opportunities to outperform their current dynasty prices once the season gets underway.

2026 Fantasy Football Tight End Rankings: Top 12 Debate The tight end position finally feels deep again. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price finish their positional rankings by revealing their top 12 tight ends for 2026. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube There is little disagreement at the top. Brock Bowers enters the season with massive expectations and a ceiling that could extend well beyond the tight end position. Trey McBride and Tyler Warren round out a consensus top three, but after that, the rankings become much harder to predict. Dalton Kincaid gets one of the most aggressive rankings of the episode after flashing elite efficiency when healthy. George Kittle creates another major debate as the guys weigh enormous target opportunity against his return from injury. There are even deeper swings. Dallas Goedert gets legitimate top six consideration, while AJ Barner sneaks into one top 12 after emerging as a bigger part of Seattle's offense. With Kyle Pitts, Colston Loveland, Harold Fannin Jr., Tucker Kraft, and several established veterans all fighting for spots, tight end suddenly looks much deeper than fantasy managers have become accustomed to.

2026 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings: Top 12 Debate The NFL season is almost here, which means it is time to lock in the final wide receiver projections. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price reveal their top 12 receivers for 2026 and debate which stars can challenge for the overall WR1 spot. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Ja'Marr Chase, Puka Nacua, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba separate themselves as the names everyone believes can realistically finish at the top. The order is far from unanimous, though, with questions about offensive efficiency, target volume, and whether last year's production can be repeated. The bigger disagreements arrive further down the board. Jameson Williams receives a top 10 ranking based on his explosive efficiency and the possibility of another target increase. Rich takes things even further with Garrett Wilson and Marvin Harrison Jr. inside his top 12. Wilson finally has an opportunity to turn his talent into elite fantasy production, while Harrison becomes a bet on a major third year breakout. With players like Ladd McConkey, Chris Olave, Nico Collins, and Tetairoa McMillan also fighting for those spots, the WR1 tier could look very different by the end of 2026.

With the NFL season about to begin, dynasty startup values are already shifting. Garret Price and Peter Bartausky jump into a live 12-team superflex, tight end premium dynasty startup mock to see how training camp buzz, preseason performances, and changing positional values are affecting draft boards. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Jahmyr Gibbs goes first overall, allowing Pete to grab Josh Allen at the 1.02. It highlights an important shift in startups as elite running backs and wide receivers begin challenging quarterbacks for the very top selections. From there, both hosts are forced to adjust as the draft refuses to cooperate with their original plans. Pete pushes toward a win-now build while Garret repeatedly finds wide receiver value and abandons his usual running back heavy approach. The biggest lesson is simple: do not force a predetermined roster construction. Take the value the room gives you, recognize tier breaks, and be willing to fix roster weaknesses through trades later.

The guys also explain why dynasty best ball changes the types of players they target, identify inexpensive running backs contenders can pursue, and discuss why paying premium prices at running back is not always necessary.

2026 Fantasy Football Running Back Rankings: Top 12 Debate The top of the running back board looks loaded, but agreement disappears quickly once the Dynasty Nerds crew gets past the biggest names. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price break down their top 12 running backs for 2026 and debate which stars have a real path to finishing as the overall RB1. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Bijan Robinson, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Christian McCaffrey headline the conversation, but the hosts believe De'Von Achane belongs firmly in the mix as well. His receiving usage and explosive ceiling make him one of the most intriguing names near the top of the position. The easy choices end there. Once the rankings move deeper, roster situations, injuries, workloads, and age create plenty of disagreement. Cam Skattebo produces one of the biggest debates after landing surprisingly high on one host's board. Javonte Williams also gets serious top 12 consideration, while Jonathan Taylor brings concerns after another massive workload. The crew also weighs the championship appeal of James Cook, the upside of Omarion Hampton, and several veterans who could either reward fantasy managers or fall outside the elite tier.
