None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. > Caleb Williams coming in at number three against Minnesota. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - “Your top five tailbacks that you're going to want to start in week two... we're going to start with Kenneth Walker III... he's third on the list going up against Kansas City... Let's get him in at the fourth spot... B. John Robinson going up against the Carolina Panthers... And finally, Saquon Barkley going up in that matchup against Tennessee.” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet - “Give me JSN going up against Arizona... Justin Jefferson going up against Chicago... CeeDee Lamb going up against Washington coming in at the third spot... Puka Nakua against the Giants... And Devontae Smith coming in in the five spot going up against Tennessee” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet - “Your top five quarterbacks for week two... Lamar Jackson off to a fine start... Jalen Hurts going up against Tennessee... Caleb Williams coming in at number three against Minnesota... Brock Purdy going up against Miami... And finally, Jaden Daniels” - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet ## More fantasy rankings The same kind of call, about other players and teams. - Andrew Erickson: Erickson gave their own Week 3 running back ranks, high on Jordan Mason as an RB1 and relatively positive on Pacheco and Skattaboo, and predicted Kenneth Walker would out-snap Zach Charbonnet this week. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/0c89878e-cd1b-4a9f-bf81-6c671a90147e (scored 77.93) - Rich Hribar: Hribar published their post-NFL Draft top-60 rookie fantasy rankings for the 2020 season, with Clyde Edwards-Helaire vaulting to No. 1 ahead of Jonathan Taylor and J.K. Dobbins. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/12b6771e-a504-44e1-a213-c7fba69c971e (scored 76.67) - Marcas Grant: Grant says De'Von Achane deserves to be a top-three pick in fantasy drafts next season, keeps Breece Hall as the Jets' clear RB1 over Isaiah Davis, and lists their five league winners for the fantasy semifinals with Saquon Barkley on top. They also pick Josh Allen as the week's top quarterback and Jaxon Smith-Njigba as the top wide receiver. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/982ad405-d984-4470-bf9e-fee5151562e6 (scored 25) - Andrew Erickson: Erickson laid out their own early 2026 quarterback and tight end ranks — Justin Herbert QB6, Jalen Hurts QB9, Jordan Love QB13, Baker Mayfield QB14, Kyler Murray QB19, Sam Darnold QB23; Tucker Kraft TE8, Isaiah Likely TE12, Ronde Gadsden TE13 — and predicted Kyler Murray starts somewhere in 2026 and Mike Evans stays in Tampa Bay. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/b6f4f57a-ff51-4131-9e69-b9d2afe304d8 (scored 75) - Jake Ciely: Sealey gave their early 2026 quarterback ranks — Allen, Lamar, May and Daniels as their top four, Joe Burrow sixth, Daniel Jones 17th, Justin Herbert 10th, C.J. Stroud 25th and Sam Darnold 26th — plus tight ends with Isaiah Likely 13th and Dalton Kincaid down at 16. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/f0bd19b0-da37-47d6-b81f-8863be80fbe2 (scored 62.5) - Jake Ciely: Seely gives his own early 2026 running back board — Bijan and Gibbs on top, McCaffrey third (seventh overall), Kyren Williams tenth, Jeanty 11th and Chase Brown 12th — while ranking Skattebo, Dowdle, Pollard, Hubbard and Tucker below consensus. He also insists Kyren Williams remains a top-ten back, expects Skattebo to lead the Giants backfield and expects Rico Dowdle to leave Carolina. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/11e7d74c-dd01-406b-a815-e91c9df6699e (scored 93.26) --- 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.
