101–125 of 1,225
Cade Otton to finish top 1 at his position, by receiving yards
Cade Otton remains a favorite to lead all tight ends in offensive snaps, as in recent seasons.
Justin Herbert to finish top 12 at his position, by fantasy points
he's a borderline matchup-proof QB1. Verdict: Start

Brock Purdy to finish top 10 at his position, by fantasy points
Brock Purdy's performance will probably crack the top 10 at the position.
Brock PurdySan Francisco 49ers
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 11, 2026 Omarion Hampton to finish top 1 at his position, by rushing yards
Omarion Hampton wins NFL rushing title ... McDaniel will have the Chargers' bell cow back winning the NFL rushing title at the end of 2026.
Baker Mayfield to finish top 5 at his position, by fantasy points
Don’t be shocked if Mayfield starts off the season with a top-five finish.

Jadarian Price to finish top ? at his position, by rushing yards
But McCloughan believes Price will be a more productive back than Love in their NFL careers.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Sep 10, 2026 Travis Kelce to finish TE1 (1–12) at his position, by fantasy points
Kelce's top-down usage and the lack of competition at this position keep him in play as a TE1.
Jaylen Waddle to finish WR2 (13–24) at his position, by fantasy points
Waddle is an upside WR2 who has added upside with all of the moving parts in the secondary for Kansas City.
Courtland Sutton to finish WR3 (25–36) at his position, by fantasy points
The addition of Waddle makes Sutton more of a boom-or-bust WR3/FLEX.
Rashee Rice to finish WR2 (13–24) at his position, by fantasy points
The target potential can still be here, but I am treating Rice as more of a floor-based WR2/WR3 in the opener.
RJ Harvey to finish RB3 (25–36) at his position, by fantasy points
At least to open the season, I am handling Harvey as more of an RB3/FLEX who has greater appeal in full-PPR formats than touchdown-driven leagues.
J.K. Dobbins to finish top ? at his position, by fantasy points
That leaves him as a touchdown-dependent FLEX.
Jaxson Dart to finish top 24 at his position, by fantasy points
I prefer to use Dart as an upside QB2 in leagues with that luxury, treating him more as a boom-or-bust swing in 1QB formats.
CeeDee Lamb to finish top 12 at his position, by fantasy points
I am still treating Lamb as a fantasy WR1, especially in this spot.
George Pickens to finish top 24 at his position, by fantasy points
Pickens is still adjacent to how we handle Tee Higgins, which makes him a high-upside WR2 who can run into spike weeks.
Cam Skattebo to finish top 24 at his position, by fantasy points
With some of that potential priced in, Skattebo is still an RB2 option for gamers with added upside if Dallas still has issues on defense early in the season.
Jake Ferguson to finish top 24 at his position, by fantasy points
Ferguson is a floor-based TE1/TE2, with added appeal in full-PPR/TE-Premium formats.
Malik Nabers to finish top 36 at his position, by fantasy points
Expecting Nabers to be eased into action to a degree, he is a volatile WR2/WR3 .
Isaiah Likely to finish top 12 at his position, by fantasy points
With Nabers still expected to ramp up, Likely has appeal as a back-end TE1 .
Dak Prescott to finish top 12 at his position, by fantasy points
He is a sturdy QB1 with added upside here if the Dallas defense still has the issues they had a year ago.
Jacoby Brissett to finish top 24 at his position, by fantasy points
Brissett is in play to be a volume-based QB2 .
