James Cook to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
Not only do I expect him to best his RB6 performance from a year ago, but I expect him to finish among the top 5 non-quarterbacks in fantasy points scored this season.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 3, 2026 Josh Downs to finish top 36 at his position, by fantasy points
the bump in snaps and targets should be enough to make him a top-36 option
Xavier Worthy to finish top 10 at his position, by fantasy points
Worthy is a flex option in drafts, with the upside of a top-10 finish if he becomes the top weapon in Kansas City's offense.

- PendingRyan ConwayPositional Finishes2026 season
Derrick Henry to finish RB1 (1–12) at his position, by rushing yards
Even at his advancing age, Henry is a bonafide RB1. But his lack of receiving work has shown to consistently cap him as a top-five-to-10 running back instead of *the* RB1.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 2, 2026 Mike Evans to finish top 1 at his position, by receiving yards
Evans will be the top pass catcher for the 49ers and could elevate their offense to another level even in his 13th season.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Jul 31, 2026 Kenneth Walker III to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
If his usage expands in the passing game or Andy Reid leans more heavily on the run than in recent seasons, Walker has the upside to finish as a top-five fantasy running back.
Ashton Jeanty to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
While Jeanty still has an opportunity to be among the league leaders in touches, a lack of goal-line work will hurt his chances of finishing among the top-5 fantasy running backs this season.
Jahmyr Gibbs to finish top 1 at his position, by fantasy points
Jahmyr Gibbs and Bijan Robinson enter 2026 as the favorites to finish as fantasy football's overall RB1.
