Drake Maye to finish top 1 at his position, by fantasy points
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye and Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert are all in play to be the position's top scorer.

I'm leaning into him being a top three quarterback this season
Ja'Marr Chase to finish top 1 at his position, by fantasy points
all of that goes into why I think Jamar Chase is the best wide receiver in the NFL this year in fantasy, and I'm taking him in my top wide receiver spot
Kolton Miller to finish top 5 at his position, by an unstated measure
Kolton Miller, one of the top-five LTs in the NFL

Derrick Brown to finish top 10 at his position, by an unstated measure
Brown is a consensus top-10 DT, meaning he should be ranked much higher than 90th overall.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 12, 2026 Dalton Kincaid to finish top 10 at his position, by fantasy points
it's almost guaranteed the tight end will post a TE10 or better finish
Michael Pittman to finish top 1 at his position, by receptions
he's projected to lead the Steelers in targets and receptions
Kenneth Walker III to finish top 24 at his position, by fantasy points
Walker is firmly on the RB2 radar and has legitimate RB1 upside in Eric Bieniemy's offense.
Jaylen Waddle to finish top 24 at his position, by fantasy points
Similar to Pickens last season, Waddle very well could deliver solid WR2 numbers.
Jeremiyah Love to finish top ? at his position, by fantasy points
he still finished sixth among backs in touches and 11th in fantasy points. He was the worst finisher among the aforementioned nine backs, and odds are Love will be better.

Jadarian Price to finish top 25 at his position, by fantasy points
Price has the talent and opportunity necessary to thrive as a top-25 fantasy RB

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 12, 2026 Bijan Robinson to finish top 1 at his position, by rushing yards
Given Bijan's ability to do more while surrounded by a less talented squad, he just barely edges out Jahmyr as the NFL's best running back right now.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba to finish WR1 (1–12) at his position, by fantasy points
a partial step back still leaves a high-end WR1, and that is exactly what the fifth pick should buy

That's too low for a player who will lead his position in points.
Justin Jefferson to finish top 1 at his position, by fantasy points
Jefferson reclaims WR1 status ... there's a chance Kyler Murray ... can lead Jefferson to this year's WR1
Tyler Warren to finish top 1 at his position, by receptions
I think he’s a legitimate contender to lead all tights ends in receptions in 2026
Emeka Egbuka to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
he is one of my dark horse candidates to end the year as a top-five wide receiver with Mike Evans gone

Maye is a dark horse candidate to lead the NFL in passing touchdowns this season.
Nico Collins to finish top 10 at his position, by fantasy points

Brock Bowers to finish top 1 at his position, by fantasy points
Bowers, if he stays healthy, will be the TE1 in all formats.

Kyler Murray to finish top 10 at his position, by fantasy points
Assuming health and 17 starts, it would be shocking if he’s not a top-10 fantasy quarterback.
