Takes in each band
Everyone writing under this banner, pooled into the numbers above. Counted by article, with a paginated series counting once — the same rule used for an individual, from the published methodology.
Teams and players where FantasyPros’s writers keep landing outside the room: at least twice, a call published under this banner sat beyond every other pundit who made a comparable one — higher or lower than all of them, in a room of at least five voices. The bar is the banner’s standing lean (+100 would be the most bullish voice in every room), and the accuracy covers just those out-on-a-limb calls, once they settle. Computed, never chosen.

DJ Moore to be 1st on the depth chart
Moore is expected to step into a prominent role as the Bills' No. 1 receiver.
David Montgomery to be 1st on the depth chart
Montgomery is expected to operate as the lead back, with Woody Marks behind him

Omarion Hampton to finish top 10 at his position, by fantasy points
McDaniel turned De'Von Achane into a top-10 running back in back-to-back seasons. If Hampton gets base work, passing work and goal-line carries, that is definitely within reach
Omarion HamptonLos Angeles Chargers
Omarion Hampton to be 1st on the depth chart
Hampton enters 2026 as the clear top dog of the Chargers' running game.

Jared Goff to outplay his draft cost (being drafted outside of the top 12)
If they do that, Goff could finally crack the top-five after years of knocking on the door.
Jaxson Dart to outplay his draft cost (being drafted outside of the top 12)
I've highlighted five signal-callers being drafted outside of the top 12 who have a realistic path to finishing as a top-five producer.
Malik Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
Malik Willis finally gets his shot to be a full-time starter. He'll lead the Dolphins' offense in 2026
Matthew Stafford to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
If Stafford plays at an MVP-level once more, top-five numbers will be in play again for the Rams' signal-caller.

Malik Willis to outplay his draft cost (being drafted outside of the top 12)
You can scoop up a player like Willis, who ranked first in fantasy points per dropback (1.35) in 2025 and second (0.84) in 2024, late in drafts to be your backup quarterback.
Matthew Stafford to outplay his draft cost (being drafted outside of the top 12)
It's not difficult imagining Matthew Stafford putting up a top-five fantasy season.

Jaxson Dart to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
If he can stay out of the blue tent, Dart has the mobility and supporting cast to push for top-five fantasy output in 2026.
Malik Willis to finish top 1 at his position, by rushing yards
Willis could lead the position in rushing this season.
Jared Goff to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
If they do that, Goff could finally crack the top-five after years of knocking on the door.
Malik Willis to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
Here's our dark horse top-five candidate.
Jeremiyah Love to fall short of his draft cost (an RB15 ADP)
Jeremiyah Love has an RB15 ADP... With Allgeier on a solid-sized contract, the terrible team around him, and a high-ankle sprain, I'm not overly optimistic about Love's fantasy value.

De'Von Achane to fall short of his draft cost (going as the RB6)
Last season, De'Von Achane finished as the RB5 in PPR leagues, and now he's currently going as the RB6 in the same format... Achane could finish in a similar spot as last year, but there's very little room for fantasy value.
Breece Hall to fall short of his draft cost (going as the RB16)
Currently going as the RB16 in PPR leagues, Breece Hall was the RB17 in the same format last season... Hall's upside is capped if his receiving usage continues to decline.
Mike Washington to be 2nd on the depth chart
Mike Washington Jr. also gained ground as the Jeanty handcuff.
Mike WashingtonLas Vegas Raiders
Tony Pollard to be 1st on the depth chart
Pollard remains the Titans' clear lead back
Isiah Pacheco to be 2nd on the depth chart
Pacheco lands in Detroit as a change-of-pace back and handcuff to Jahmyr Gibbs, a reduced role
MarShawn Lloyd to be 1st on the depth chart
With Jacobs sidelined to start the year, Lloyd is the presumed lead back in a good offense... so Lloyd is the frontrunner rather than a guaranteed workhorse.

DJ Moore to be 1st on the depth chart
Moore was traded to Buffalo to be Josh Allen's new WR1

Brock Bowers to outplay his draft cost (the back half of the second round or early in the third round of 12-team fantasy drafts)
Bowers is worth a look in the back half of the second round or early in the third round of 12-team fantasy drafts.
