# Jim Moorman: In a rest-of-season redraft exercise, Moorman names risers and fallers and assigns each a current fantasy tier and draft range, while also listing their top-five players at each position. **Claimed:** Oct 29, 2026 **Pundit:** Jim Moorman — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/jim-moorman **Outlet:** FantasyPros — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/fantasypros **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.fantasypros.com/2026/10/if-your-fantasy-football-league-drafted-today-2026-week-8/ 10 checkable claims — 6 positional finishes and 4 fantasy rankings — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 11 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. > If I were drafting today, I would target Golden as a mid-WR2 in the late third round, in a similar range to Bucky Irving. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **TreVeyon Henderson to finish RB3 (25–36) at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: TreVeyon Henderson, New England Patriots - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jaylen Waddle to finish WR3 (25–36) at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Jaylen Waddle, Denver Broncos - Verdict: not settled yet - **Chase Brown to finish RB2 (13–24) at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Chase Brown, Cincinnati Bengals - Verdict: not settled yet - **Omar Cooper to finish WR3 (25–36) at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Omar Cooper - Verdict: not settled yet - “Tight End: Brock Bowers (TE – LV), Trey McBride (TE – ARI), Isaiah Likely (TE – NYG), Tyler Warren (TE – IND), George Kittle (TE – SF)” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet - “Running Back: Jahmyr Gibbs (RB – DET), Bijan Robinson (RB – ATL), Derrick Henry (RB – BAL)” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet - **Matthew Golden to finish WR2 (13–24) at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Matthew Golden, Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Josh Downs to finish WR4 (37–48) at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Josh Downs, Indianapolis Colts - Verdict: not settled yet - “Wide Receiver: Puka Nacua (WR – LAR), Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR – SEA), Ja'Marr Chase (WR – CIN), CeeDee Lamb (WR – DAL)” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet - “Quarterback: Josh Allen (QB – BUF), Lamar Jackson (QB – BAL), Joe Burrow (QB – CIN), Jayden Daniels (QB – WSH), Brock Purdy (QB – SF)” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - TreVeyon Henderson — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/treveyon-henderson - New England Patriots — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/patriots - Jaylen Waddle — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jaylen-waddle - Denver Broncos — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/broncos - Chase Brown — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/chase-brown - Cincinnati Bengals — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/bengals - Omar Cooper — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/omar-cooper - Matthew Golden — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/matthew-golden - Green Bay Packers — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/packers - Josh Downs — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/josh-downs - Indianapolis Colts — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/colts ## What others said about the same people - Chad Jensen on Jordan Turner: Jensen predicts Daiyan Henley's arrival will cut into Justin Strnad's snaps while Alex Singleton keeps playing virtually every down, and that Denver will return to a three-linebacker rotation after the Week 10 bye. They also expect one of Jordan Turner or Karene Reid — most likely Turner — to be waived to clear a roster spot. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/a84d2c6e-5554-46aa-95b1-620858d31e0f (scored 0) - Michael David Smith on Josh Downs: Smith suggests the Colts are likely to grant Josh Downs' trade request given their contract situation and their recent sell-off, and that they could also try to trade Keenan Allen. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/52d7108f-f754-44e8-9bf3-cc3336b4e5f7 (scored 100) - Noah Compton on Josh Downs: Compton expects the rebuilding Colts to keep dealing veterans before the November 10 deadline, naming Jonathan Taylor, Josh Downs and Grover Stewart as the likeliest remaining trade candidates, and believes Indianapolis should and likely will move on from quarterback Daniel Jones, while Shane Steichen keeps starting Jones in the meantime. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/97a66c60-b5a2-4503-a0c2-aa0181552557 (scored 100) - Gilberto Manzano on Josh Downs: Previewing the trade deadline, he expects Justin Herbert to stay in Los Angeles despite the Chargers' 0–7 start, thinks the Jets will keep Garrett Wilson and pair him with their young weapons, expects a receiver-hungry Kansas City to be aggressive with Josh Downs the likeliest target, and suggests expiring Eagles contracts Moro Ojomo and Riq Woolen could be dealt for mid-round picks. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/67d5af78-94ea-4ee2-a277-5e68347022de (scored 100) - Jordan Schultz on Josh Downs: Schultz expects Jonathan Taylor to be traded for at least a second-round pick plus additional compensation, and believes Josh Downs will ultimately be dealt for a fourth-round pick rather than the third the Colts are seeking. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/2d7c8d17-c4d1-4eda-b469-070134b39a6a (scored 100) - Joshua Poniatowski on Josh Downs: Poniatowski names several trade targets, predicting Malik Willis underperforms this week against New England, that Omarion Hampton could become a viable RB2 if Adam Gase takes over play-calling, that Josh Downs gets traded (ideally to Kansas City, where they'd be a top-24 WR), that Brian Thomas Jr. could be dealt to the Rams or 49ers, and that Travis Kelce remains a consistent weekly TE. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/d1752582-a799-48b9-984b-39bf7cb8b709 (scored 100) ## More positional finishes The same kind of call, about other players and teams. - Nick Wright on Puka Nacua: Nick Wright picked the Ravens to beat Houston this weekend even with Lamar Jackson possibly out (leaning on Derrick Henry and Cooper Rush), the Chiefs to win in Jacksonville, and the Rams to beat the 49ers on Thursday night. They also laid out an AFC playoff field of Bills, Steelers, Chiefs, Chargers and Colts, projected the Chiefs' receiver pecking order once Rashee Rice returns, and called Justin Jefferson the best receiver in football with Puka Nacua a top-five receiver. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/d48b8521-6883-4f25-99f1-6f552bfe5a94 (scored 75) - Rich Hribar on Matthew Stafford: Hribar published their 2023 fantasy football quarterback tiers, ordering 41 quarterbacks into eight tiers that reflect how they prioritize drafting the position, with Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes in the top tier as the trio most likely to finish as the overall QB1. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/9d1e15ad-f96d-457c-ad9f-25882182e28b (scored 100) - Chris Brockman on Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Brockman argued Jaxon Smith-Njigba is already the best receiver in the NFL and deserves to be the highest paid, called their shot that three quarterbacks (Mendoza, Ty Simpson, Carson Beck) go in the first round with Mendoza first overall, and suggested New England is headed for a 7-10 season. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/c47d130c-5598-4cd0-b546-1121046b9166 (scored 100) - Ryan Tracy on Bryan Cook: Tracy argues the Chiefs should address edge rusher and defensive tackle via the draft and use free agency on running back and wide receiver; they name Brian Robinson as their target, expects Kenneth Walker III to re-sign with Seattle, thinks Nick Bolton-style veterans like Jerry Tillery, Derek Nnadi and Mike Pennel shouldn't return, believes Bryan Cook is a top-10 safety the Chiefs can't afford, and predicts a quarterback (Trinidad Chambliss) will rocket up boards so more than one QB goes in the top 10. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/18bb787c-4f93-4c95-b8c2-02daeeffe823 (scored 0) - Pat Gustavson on Bijan Robinson: Gustafson picks the Patriots, Bills, Seahawks and Bears in the divisional round with a Seahawks-Patriots Super Bowl, predicts Mike Tomlin and Matt LaFleur stay, Aaron Rodgers returns to Pittsburgh, and lays out their own coaching landing spots. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/06884586-5b21-40c8-9439-e303a3e8a806 (scored 75) - JP Acosta on Bijan Robinson: JP picked the Eagles to beat the 49ers in a low-scoring game and the Jaguars to beat the Bills, called Bijan Robinson the best running back in the league, and named their own first-team All-Pro roster. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/660e3494-2b0b-415e-beb7-9e3bf3464e30 (scored 75) --- 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.
