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 The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast)’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.

Ashton Jeanty to finish top 12 at his position, by fantasy points
I think that he is more of a back end RB one for me than mid first round, where like a lot of people want to take him
Christian McCaffrey to outplay his draft cost (right around that one two turn)
If McCaffrey is healthy, he is going to smash... Yeah, I mean I love to wait till the second but he's right around that one two turn for me.
Isiah Pacheco to outplay his draft cost (you can get him in the seventh or eighth)
This is a guy who was being drafted in the mid to late second round last year and now you can get him in the seventh or eighth... he's a small boom for me.
Christian McCaffrey to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
For me, he's a boom. He's my RB five. I initially had him lower in my rankings this offseason, but I have moved him up
Isiah Pacheco to be 1st on the depth chart
I still think Pachecko is probably the best running back the Chiefs have
Breece Hall to fall short of his draft cost (RB thirteen)
But at RB thirteen, I have him more as a back end RB two just because I think there's a lot of bust potential with this.
Brashard Smith to outplay his draft cost (a light late round flier)
that's why bring up Brishard Smith as a light late round flier and a lot of these shows
Brock Purdy to finish top 10 at his position, by an unstated measure
And I'm gonna give you one more, I say, see Lada, Matthew Stafford, Hello, Brock Purty.
Justin Herbert to finish top 10 at his position, by passing yards
Absolutely? Herbert's the top ten guy.
San Francisco 49ers to finish with 13 wins
forty nineers are gonna win thirteen games this year. They have the weakest ass schedule you've ever seen, and they're gonna go and they're gonna go twelve and five minimum because they play bottom feeders.
Jalen Hurts to finish top 10 at his position, by passing yards
So Hurts and Daniels on the list. Take away Dak and Gino and put in Hurts and Daniels
So in at number one, you really can't debate it. Patrick Mahomes... Number two, Lamar Jackson... he's right there at number three... Borrow number four... Well Herbert is at number five?... Number six Matt Stafford... Number seven Dak Prescott... Gino Smith. Number eight... Love number nine Ireen Bay Packers... CJ. Stroud, great young quarterback in at number ten.
Jalen Hurts should be up at five. I think at Baker Mayfield should be at ten.
Jayden Daniels to finish top 10 at his position, by an unstated measure
So Hurts and Daniels on the list. Take away Dak and Gino and put in Hurts and Daniels, right
Drake Maye to record 4 rushing tds
Yeah, that seems light to me too. I think it's more like four or five easily
Xavier Worthy to fall short of his draft cost (the wide receiver twenty)
If he goes back into that role and Mahomes is still one of the worst deep all passes in the NFL, he's not going to come close to paying all this projection, not even close
Chase Brown to fall short of his draft cost (twelve RB overall)
if that's where he goes he's gonna be a big bust this coming year because people are expecting RB one production if they are rafting Chase Brown.
Tyreek Hill to fall short of his draft cost (wide receiver fifteen and ADP)
So this projection and where we are where the consensus is on Tyrek Hill scares the Bejesus out of me because I can't see him paying all on this.
Bucky Irving to outplay his draft cost (more of a third or fourth rounder)
I thought he was a pretty solid option in the latter part of the second round of twenty twenty five drafts. I know a lot of people think he's more of a third or fourth rounder, and the projection seem to agree
Drake Maye to record 700 rushing yards
I think if he makes sixteen starts or seventeen, he is going to go for seven hundred rushing yards. And I feel pretty confident about that.
Drake Maye to finish top 9 at his position, by fantasy points
So the projections have Drake May QB twenty in fantasy scoring. That's the scary part. I have May at QB nine
Rachaad White to be 2nd on the depth chart
Rashad was in a pure backup rowl. I don't think there's any chance the pendulum swings back towards Rashad White barring injury
Bucky Irving to be 1st on the depth chart
Bucky Irving's not going to lose his job back to Rashad White... I don't think there's any chance the pendulum swings back towards Rashad White barring injury
Chase Brown to be 1st on the depth chart
But I do think Chase Brown is still pretty safely going to be the lead back in one of the best offenses in the league.
Chase Brown to finish top 11 at his position, by fantasy points
so I've Chased Brown at RB eleven in my rankings
