Justin Herbert to outplay his draft cost (an ADP of QB9 and is going in the back half of the seventh round)

Justin Herbert to win MVP

Oronde Gadsden II to fall short of his draft cost (TE20, Overall RK150 | ECR vs. ADP: -20)
“I'll be avoiding Oronde Gadsden in drafts this season... Gadsden looks like he's locked in a tight end committee for 2026, which is something I don't have any interest in dealing with for fantasy purposes.” the article →
Oronde Gadsden II to be 3rd on the depth chart
“I would drop Ronde. I think he's gonna be tight end three in that rotation, man.” the article →

Ashton Jeanty to finish top 1 at his position, by rushing yards
“But Ashton Genty, you say could lead the league in rushing. He can make a run at the rushing title.” the article →
