Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price dissected the latest superflex tight end premium ADP, revealing major value shifts and draft strategies. The trio agreed that quarterback value has evolved dramatically, with elite options like Brock Purdy and Trevor Lawrence falling to the third and fourth rounds while top picks are dominated by skill position players. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube The hosts highlighted Travis Etienne at running back 21 as a screaming value after finishing as RB10 last season. Rich emphasized that proven producers like Etienne often get overlooked despite consistent fantasy production. They also debated Ashton Jeanty versus De'Von Achane, with Rich having a sizable gap between them despite similar ADP. At wide receiver, Jaylen Waddle emerged as a standout value at WR27, especially with Tyreek Hill likely departing Miami. The hosts loved his WR11 finish through Week 10 before injuries derailed the Dolphins. Ricky Pearsall also got love as a late-round value with a clear path to targets in Kyle Shanahan's offense. The tight end discussion revealed surprising depth in the young tier, with Harold Fannin Jr. and Tucker Kraft offering similar upside to more expensive options.

Jagger May and Andrew Mott delivered their final top 24 skill position rankings before diving deep into NFL Draft team needs. The duo broke down six tiers of prospects, revealing major disagreements on wide receivers and running backs as the 2026 draft process heats up. Jeremiyah Love stands alone in the S tier as the only blue chip talent. The A tier features Fernando Mendoza, Carnell Tate, Makai Lemon, and Jordyn Tyson, though Andrew has Tyson as his clear WR1 while Jagger ranks him fifth. KC Concepcion and Kenyon Sadiq form their own B tier, with both potentially jumping higher depending on landing spots. The real fireworks started in the D tier. Jagger went to bat for Ja'Kobi Lane while admitting he's way lower on Denzel Boston than consensus. The duo also debated whether they're artificially pushing up running backs like Jadarian Price just because the class is weak at the position, similar to what happened in 2023.

The Dynasty Nerds crew is back with their monthly Risers and Fallers episode, and the conversation got heated. Rich Dotson, Garret Price, and Jagger May debated which players are climbing the dynasty rankings and which ones are plummeting after the AFC and NFC Championship games. Trevor Lawrence topped the risers list as the unanimous number one. With Liam Coen's offense and a loaded receiving corps, Rich declared him an elite dynasty asset at just 26 years old. Jaxson Dart landed at number two, with John Harbaugh bringing stability to the Giants and Malik Nabers returning from injury. Colston Loveland rounded out the top three, cementing himself as a top five tight end after his playoff breakout. On the falling side, CJ Stroud was the unanimous number one faller. Rich went on a legendary rant, calling him overvalued for years and predicting he could slide even further when the elite 2027 quarterback class arrives. JJ McCarthy and Zach Charbonnet also took hits, with McCarthy facing competition rumors and Charbonnet dealing with a devastating ACL injury.

The wide receiver trio of Makai Lemon, Carnell Tate, and Jordyn Tyson flew off the board next, though debate raged about which one truly deserves WR1 status. The surprises came later.

Wide Receiver Free Agency: George Pickens Headlines Thin 2026 Class Rich Dotson and Garret Price break down the 2026 wide receiver free agent landscape and team needs across the NFL. While the rookie draft class offers depth at the position, several veteran receivers could shift the dynasty landscape when free agency opens. The hosts dive into which teams desperately need help and where value might emerge for fantasy managers. George Pickens leads the class after a career best 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns in Dallas. The hosts expect him to return on a franchise tag or extension. Alec Pierce emerges as an intriguing secondary option who could fit Buffalo's needs. The duo identifies Las Vegas and Tennessee as premier landing spots where receivers could immediately become fantasy assets, similar to Josh Palmer's breakout season. Potential cap casualties include Tyreek Hill, Calvin Ridley, DJ Moore, and surprisingly Michael Pittman Jr, creating additional roster movement across the league. 📊 Rookie Big Boards 📝 Rookie Mock Drafts 📈 Dynasty Rankings 📱 Dynasty Nerds App 🧱 IDP Hub Start Using the Film Room Today!

Rich Dotson and Garret Price sound the alarm on running back scarcity in dynasty leagues. With a weak 2026 rookie class, the hosts urge managers to act now before free agency reshapes the landscape. The message is clear: if you need running back help, the time to trade is before values spike. Breece Hall leads the free agent class as the top prize for contending teams. The hosts highlight Kansas City, Houston, and Washington as ideal landing spots. Kenneth Walker and Travis Etienne round out the top tier, while J.K. Dobbins and Javonte Williams offer intriguing mid-tier value. Rich and Garret break down potential cap casualties including Tony Pollard, Joe Mixon, and James Conner, while highlighting Jonathon Brooks as a sneaky buy low candidate in Carolina. 📊 Rookie Big Boards 📝 Rookie Mock Drafts 📈 Dynasty Rankings 📱 Dynasty Nerds App 🧱 IDP Hub Start Using the Film Room Today!

Garret Price and Andrew Mott conduct a 13 round superflex tight end premium startup mock draft with the Dynasty Nerds community. With outdated ADP creating opportunities, the hosts demonstrate how to exploit market inefficiencies and build championship rosters through best player available strategies. Andrew builds around Drake Maye and Caleb Williams as his cornerstone quarterbacks, emphasizing the importance of locking down the premium position early in superflex formats. He adds Bryce Young as a high upside QB3, betting on continued improvement with Carolina's offensive development. Garret delays quarterback until round six, snagging C.J. Stroud while stockpiling running backs with Jahmyr Gibbs, De'Von Achane, and Breece Hall. The strategy creates trade flexibility while capturing elite talent at scarce positions. Andrew exploits outdated ADP to land Emeka Egbuka in round four and George Pickens in round six, both players he had ranked significantly higher. 📊 Rookie Big Boards 📝 Rookie Mock Drafts 📈 Dynasty Rankings 📱 Dynasty Nerds App 🧱 IDP Hub Start Using the Film Room Today!

Buy These 2024 Players Instead of Spending Picks on 2026 Rookies Jagger May and Andrew Mott break down why dynasty managers should target undervalued vet players instead of chasing 2026 rookies. With the 2026 class lacking depth, buying low on players offers better value for contending teams looking to maximize their rosters. Marvin Harrison Jr. tops the buy list after a disappointing rookie season hampered by injuries and poor offensive coordination. With Drew Petzing gone and a potential offensive overhaul in Arizona, Harrison could be acquired for a fourth or fifth round startup pick. Brian Thomas Jr., Rome Odunze, and Ladd McConkey all offer bounce back potential, with McConkey especially appealing after Greg Roman's firing in Los Angeles opens up the passing game. Zay Flowers quietly delivered consistency despite limited touchdown equity, while Woody Marks presents running back value despite a struggling Texans offense. The hosts even highlight veteran quarterback Jared Goff and breakout tight end Kyle Pitts as targets now that Kevin Stefanski is coaching the Falcons. Start Using the Film Room Today!
