Quentin Johnston to outplay his draft cost (ninth round)
I'm all in on Quentin Johnston this year... If you want Lad McConkie production, but you don't want to pay the Ladd mconkee price tag, this year, draft Quentin Johnston
Cam Ward to outplay his draft cost (thirteenth round)
I'd like thirteenth round cam Ward Again. If I'm waiting on quarterbacks, I want an upside shot at like who could be this year is Caleb Williams
Jalen Coker to outplay his draft cost (twelfth round)
Is Jalen Coker just in this range... those are my two favorite wide receivers to be drafting in this round
Josh Downs to outplay his draft cost (tenth round)
If you can tell me I can get a double digit round wide receiver with the potential for one hundred targets... And it's Josh Downs
James Cook to outplay his draft cost (eleventh overall)
I think James Cook is the best value on the board. Looking at eleventh overall, he's being valued basically based off of what he did last year.
A.J. Brown to outplay his draft cost (second round)
AJ Brown, He's my guy... I think we get a career season from AJ Brown in a limited volume passing offense.
Colston Loveland to outplay his draft cost (third round)
Coleston Loveland, I'm bringing him up in the third round... I think that Colston Loveland is going to be a league defining player
David Montgomery to outplay his draft cost (fifth round)
fifth round... David Montgomery... he's gonna be the engine of that offense
Jordan Addison to outplay his draft cost (ninth round)
I'm just looking at Addison at this range, ninth round... so Jordan ass in this range, I think is just buying all the ceiling potential here
Sam LaPorta to outplay his draft cost (round seven)
top three tight end potential, but guess where he's going round seven
Malik Willis to outplay his draft cost (round twelve)
My guy in round twelve is Malik Willis... Malik Willis is going to freaking run this year, and if he runs this year, you're getting a QB two that has top twelve upside
Tony Pollard to outplay his draft cost (seventh round)
ECR seventy seven is where you're gonna be going with your seventh round pick... Tony Pollard, I just it's just free money for me
Quentin Johnston to outplay his draft cost (seven dollars)
Quinton Johnston, who I think is gonna be the real wide receiver one for the Chargers this year, Wide receiver thirty six at seven dollars
Ricky Pearsall to outplay his draft cost (four dollars)
Romeo Dobbs is another guy, Ricky Piersol at four dollars
Christian Watson to outplay his draft cost (fifteen dollars)
Christian Watson wide receiver twenty nine at fifteen dollars as well
David Montgomery to outplay his draft cost (fifteen dollars)
David Montgomery even RB five at fifteen dollars. On our sheet, the two biggest RB values that I could say, like for upside and volume right now are David Montgomery and Tony Pollard.
Kevin Coleman to outplay his draft cost (the last round flyer, or pick him up off of waivers)
the last round flyer, or pick him up off of waivers ... Keep an eye out for my guy, Kevin Coleman Junior.

Parker Washington wide receiver thirty five at seven dollars
Jaylen Waddle to outplay his draft cost (fifteen dollars)
man Jalen Wattle is a screaming value at fifteen dollars, a wide receiver at twenty seven
Bhayshul Tuten to outplay his draft cost (RB twenty three)
like Baseil Tootin at RB twenty three, I think is a value
Isaiah Likely to outplay his draft cost (the late run tight end)
Isaiah likely is the late run tight end you need because he's going to break out in twenty twenty six.

Quentin Johnston to outplay his draft cost (consensus ranking of wide receiver forty three)
buy into a breakout season for him... He's giving me Michael Pittman twenty twenty five vibes of a guy that everyone's just overlooking but is going to massively outperform what he did previously.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Jul 6, 2026 Josh Downs to outplay his draft cost (ECR one to thirteen)
Josh Downs has been one of the easiest buyers of the off season ever since that move for Michael Pittman... Now you remove Michael Pittman from that offense opens up a lot more tigits.
Zay Flowers to outplay his draft cost (ec are of thirty four overall)
I am also in on Zay Flowers talk to the people of why he carries a different ceiling in twenty twenty six than we've seen before.
- PendingAdam MurfetSleeper Calls2026 season
