# Alex Kay: Kay names five late-round fantasy stashes (ADP 100 or later) they expect to outperform their draft cost: Tyler Shough, Blake Corum, Kaelon Black, Rashid Shaheed and Dalton Kincaid. They also forecast Corum's role in the Rams backfield, Black winning the 49ers RB2 job, Shaheed passing Kupp as Seattle's WR2, and Kincaid finishing TE10 or better.

**Claimed:** Aug 12, 2026

9 checkable claims — 5 sleeper calls, 3 depth chart calls and 1 positional finish — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 10 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.

Of the 4 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 1 and below it on 3.

> Shough is a strong bet to outperform his modest fantasy projections.

Accuracy is 0-100 against what actually happened. The naive guess is what a strategy requiring no knowledge would have scored on the same call — the difference is the skill, and it is what the MissedTakes Score averages.
