We’re almost a third of the way through the 2026 season, and this season has been about as unpredictable and injury-riddled as I can remember. Jalen Hurts is the latest big-name player to find himself on the injury list (get well soon, Jalen), and last week we were without Lamar Jackson. Hopefully, neither injury keeps them out long. Whether you’re trying to find your replacement QB or looking for a bye week fill-in, as always, the DFF Crew has you covered. Let’s get after it!
Welcome to my first series in about four years! The goal is to spotlight a few players each week I’m watching or adding to my C2C rosters who I think are buried deep in your Fantrax player pools. But first, a little about myself and why I think I’m the perfect person to find those diamonds in the rough.
My name is Joe Memmolo Jr and I’m a Co-Owner/Director of Technology at Dynasty Football Factory. I’m mostly known for no longer writing articles, but for building the Control Room, which should be exactly the app you’re reading right now! Now you’re asking yourself, why is this guy qualified to write about C2C diamonds in the rough? It’s a great question, and I’ve played C2C for only half a year at this point, so it’s extremely valid. But I bring a mind for data and trend analysis, plus a passion for winning. Everything I’m going to put into these articles is backed by real data and analysis that I’m using to test out a future capability for the Control Room: The Campus Control Center.
This also isn’t the first time I’ve used data analysis to back fantasy sports decision-making. I played fantasy basketball back in 2017-2019 and created macros in Excel to scrape data from ESPN and effectively build teams that became the best in specific category combinations and find the best values in the draft and free agency. To me, college football, even with all its week-to-week chaos, is no different. So with that, let’s talk about some of the players I’ve called out in the past and identify how the Control Room has helped me identify valuable players to this point.
It is time for you to be real with your roster. Are you a top-4 team with a legit chance to win? Are you a middle-of-the-road team that has been hit with the injury bug? If not, you should be selling. Do not get stuck with aging Dynasty assets if you are not a contender. With that, let’s dive into my top four “buys” and “sells” for Dynasty.
By Week 7, the roles are getting easier to read. The hard part now is not letting the name of the player decide for us. I am keeping it simple again this week and following the production and workload.
Quarterbacks
Starts
Darian Mensah, Miami vs. Florida State
Mensah has thrown for 1,438 yards, 15 touchdowns, and still has not thrown an interception through 5 games. He has also added 79 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns. When a quarterback is producing like this without turning the ball over, I am not getting cute with it.
JC French, Cincinnati at West Virginia
French has 949 passing yards and 6 touchdowns while adding 193 rushing yards and 5 more touchdowns on the ground. That gives us 2 different ways to get points, and West Virginia has struggled against both the pass and run. I like this spot for French.
Sits
Anthony Colandrea, Nebraska at Oregon
Colandrea has 1,406 passing yards, 13 passing touchdowns, 296 rushing yards, and 3 rushing touchdowns. Last week against Indiana, though, he threw for 264 yards with no passing touchdowns and 1 interception. His legs can always save the day, but going to Oregon is not where I want to depend on that happening.
Dylan Raiola, Oregon vs. Nebraska
Raiola went 6 of 19 for only 43 yards with 2 interceptions against UCLA and was replaced by Brock Thomas. Thomas came in and threw for 156 yards and 1 touchdown. Dante Moore is out again, but Oregon has not committed to Raiola or Thomas as the starter. I am staying away until we know who actually has the job.
Running Backs
Starts
DeJuan Williams, Maryland vs. Rutgers
Williams has only 29 carries this season, but he has turned them into 242 yards and 3 touchdowns. That is 8.3 yards per carry. Rutgers is allowing 199.2 rushing yards per game, so I am willing to follow the production here.
Jaziun Patterson, Michigan State vs. Northwestern
Last time we talked about Patterson, I wanted to see the role before trusting him. I think we got our answer. Against Illinois, he had 17 carries for 93 yards and 3 rushing touchdowns while adding 3 catches for 26 yards and another touchdown. That is the type of workload I needed to see.
Trending
Last Week in Fantasy: Week 5
Week 5 had a little bit of everything. Josh Allen ran for 121 yards in a Monday night overtime classic; Puka Nacua caught 17 passes (on 24 targets!), Drake Maye threw four touchdowns, Jahmyr Gibbs piled up over 200 total yards, the Giants and Commanders played more than 60 minutes of football to settle absolutely nothing, and Marvin Harrison Jr. is now a Houston Texan.
You might notice things look a little different this week. I’ve moved away from slapping a Buy, Sell, or Stash label on every team, because the most useful stuff doesn’t always fit in one of those boxes.
Here’s how this works. I dig through the numbers, snap counts, and news from all 32 teams so you don’t have to, and pull out the stat, trend, or storyline from each one that deserves your attention. Some of it points to a clear move. Some of it is food for thought. Either way, you’ll walk away with something you can use when you set your lineup, work the waiver wire, or fire off that trade offer.
ARIZONA CARDINALS
Marvin Harrison Jr. was traded to the Houston Texans, but oddly enough, I don’t think any of the other Cardinals receivers should be elevated because of this move. Harrison had just 13 targets on the year and wasn’t a real focal point of the offense.
Takeaway: Kendrick Bourne is third on the team in targets with 22. He’s worth keeping an eye on, but if anyone should rise up the rankings, it’s RB Jeremiyah Love.
ATLANTA FALCONS
Kyle Pitts caught his first touchdown of the season and looks to be finding his place in the Falcons’ offense, and Michael Penix Jr. has three straight games with 200 or more passing yards, something he did only five times in 2025.
Takeaway: Bijan Robinson and Drake London are the stars of the Falcons’ offense, but Pitts and Penix aren’t far behind.
BALTIMORE RAVENS
Even without Lamar Jackson, the Ravens’ offense didn’t skip a beat. Receiver Rashod Bateman is rumored to be on the trade block, and while his stats don’t jump off the screen, he has 30 or more receiving yards in every game this season and has played 75% or more of the snaps in every game but one. He also proved he can handle the WR1 role in Week 2 without Zay Flowers, putting up 21 points.
Takeaway: Bateman is a low-end flex play right now, but depending on where he lands (if he gets traded at all), he could be a WR3 in fantasy lineups.
BUFFALO BILLS
The Buffalo offense is efficient, but if you’re chasing their receivers, I’d temper expectations. The Bills rank 29th in pass attempts at 27 per game. Maybe the return of D.J. Moore will help?
Takeaway: D.J. Moore is the only Bills receiver with double-digit targets in a game this year, and that happened just once. Right now, picking which Bills receiver to start is a guessing game I’m not looking to play.
CAROLINA PANTHERS
Coming off their bye week, nothing has changed for the new and improved passing attack. However, Jalen Coker is expected to return and give Bryce Young another weapon.
Takeaway: In the first three weeks of the season, Jalen Coker had 22 targets (he left in the third quarter of Week 3) and Tetairoa McMillan had 23. Coker’s return doesn’t hurt McMillan as much as it complements him.
CHICAGO BEARS
The trio of Rome Odunze, Luther Burden, and Colston Loveland has started to show signs of life over the last three weeks. Odunze has 24 targets, Burden has 23, and Loveland has 18. The return of Caleb Williams can’t come soon enough.
Takeaway: The injury to RB Kyle Monangai, who is second on the team in red zone touches with 15, should open up more scoring opportunities for Burden, Odunze, and Loveland.
CINCINNATI BENGALS
Fun fact: Chase Brown is second among all RBs with 24 receptions. Brown has been frustrating lately, and Samaje Perine stealing a touchdown from him didn’t help matters. Over the last three games, Brown has 52 total touches and Perine has 26.
Takeaway: Brown is a big part of this offense and leads the team in red zone touches with 12 (Perine has eight). The touchdowns are coming for Brown.
CLEVELAND BROWNS
Quinshon Judkins got hurt in Week 5, and Raheim Sanders is on IR. Dylan Sampson might play on Sunday. Add in Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime, and this backfield is a mess.
Takeaway: Judkins has a chance to play, but if he doesn’t, I like Denzel Boston’s and Harold Fannin Jr.’s chances of scoring a touchdown given the state of the RB room. Maybe Watson finally scores his first rushing touchdown of the season?
DALLAS COWBOYS
With 10 days off, hopefully the Cowboys are well rested after playing three games in 12 days. Javonte Williams heads into the break riding a three-game touchdown streak.
Takeaway: The Packers have allowed nine total touchdowns to RBs this season, which ranks 30th in the NFL. I expect Javonte to have a big game in Week 6.
4 Biggest Dynasty Story Lines: Week 6
Week 5 is in the books, and we’re officially a third of the way through the season. While Week 5 will be remembered for Mike Evans mogging Trevon Diggs, Week 6 is the first bye-pocalypse of the season. When the byes and injuries pile up, we have to make lineup decisions that make your skin crawl. With those bad decisions in mind, we start with a huge trade involving a former 1.01 pick. Here are the biggest Dynasty storylines in Week 6.

The Devy Notebook 2026: Volume 7
Conference play is in full swing now, and the picture is rapidly becoming clearer about which players we need to watch for the rest of the season. Unfortunately, it is also becoming clear which players we should move on from before it’s too late. Let’s find out who falls on each side of the line in this week’s edition of The Devy Notebook 2026.
It’s the second week of excuses for Isaac Brown, but that’s also due to the consistency of his poor play to begin the season. Keyjuan Brown was out for Louisville this weekend, and it led to 17 carries for Isaac Brown. The result of his increased share of the carries was 235 yards and 2 touchdowns, which included a 97-yard run where his game-breaking speed was on full display. This was the Isaac Brown we had come to know and love; I can only hope that it continues.
While we are discussing speed, the second fastest player of this week (clocked at 21.7 MPH) was BYU freshman wide receiver Legend Glasker. I will be honest, I’m still questioning how I truly feel about him as a true devy asset, but the speed pops and he is making an immediate impact as a freshman, which is always notable. He also ranks 6th in the FBS in missed tackles forced after the catch (8). He caught 5 passes for 99 yards and a touchdown against Iowa State, and we get a chance to really evaluate him when he takes on Notre Dame this coming weekend.
I spent last week discussing the vacant targets due to the numerous injuries in the Arizona receiving corps, but I was wrong about who would step into one of the most productive roles in college football. Sophomore wide receiver Isaiah Mizell caught 6 balls for 183 yards and 2 touchdowns. The 6’1” receiver has a slender 170 lb. frame but possesses elite speed, acceleration, and burst that make him a unique and dangerous weapon. He doesn’t have the route development and receiving acumen of a player like Xavier Worthy, who has similar athletic testing numbers, but there are some similarities we should be taking note of.
Jamal Roberts has the appropriate size and frame to be a relevant NFL running back. The 2027 class will likely be without Ahmad Hardy, but the 6’0”, 216 lb. backup, Jamal Roberts, is making the case to be a top-5 back in the class. Over his last two games, he has carried the ball 58 times for 433 yards and 5 touchdowns. It is worth noting that he faced Texas A&M and Florida in these matchups and not some FCS cupcakes. The performances do beg the question of how much the system makes a difference. It seems like every back to carry the ball for Missouri puts up gaudy stats, yet none of them tend to pan out at the next level.
I feel pretty strongly that Cayden Lee is a trap. I just mentioned that Missouri’s system tends to make players shine who might not otherwise, and Lee might be taking full advantage of it. I wanted to buy in during his three seasons at Ole Miss, but he never showed me anything worth truly investing in. I can’t change my tune now. His 100th percentile outcome is Danny Amendola.

Dynasty Data Trendz: Week 5
Fantasy point production is not always the best predictor of future fantasy point production. One blown coverage or short touchdown can instantly make a player’s otherwise pedestrian week look great for fantasy..
This is where usage trends come in. A player’s usage is a better predictor of what kind of future fantasy production we should expect. You can use this to target Dynasty owners who may be otherwise disenchanted with a low macro fantasy output, while you know the underlying factors are healthy. On the other hand, you can also utilize usage trends to see which players may have a concerning trend relative to their historical valuation that you may want to consider trading.
*Data Sources: DFF Data Factory, PFF, Fantasy Pros, NFL Pro, Next Gen Stats*
Run your own custom reports in the DFF Data Factory within the Control Room app. Receiving yards per team pass attempt is a good way to measure a player’s efficiency within their offense. The above chart lists the top eight in RYPTPA.
1. Zay Flowers is a player I am aggressively targeting in trade offers. He is WR11 in Dynasty Community value on Keep Trade Cut. He will cost you about a mid-first. But he is still obtainable because he has played most of this season injured. His Dynasty managers haven’t seen the end result of huge fantasy points, but in reality he is producing that way in his limited time. You can see in the chart above he is even out-producing the far more expensive Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The newest factor depressing his fantasy value is the absence of Lamar Jackson. This makes the trade window wide open. Fire out some offers this week before it is too late.
2. Similarly, Drake London has been electric since the return of Michael Penix. He has nearly doubled his target share and fantasy points per game since Penix took over the reins.
Week 6 College Football Highlights and Injury Report
Week 6 Highlights
Jesse Legree Keeps Dominating
Legree caught 10 passes for 191 yards and 3 touchdowns in Oregon State’s 66 to 14 win over San Diego State. Even without his 71-yard touchdown, he still had 9 catches for 120 yards and 2 touchdowns. That is 6 straight 100-yard games. He is not just a fun campus story anymore.
Braden Atkinson Does It Again
Atkinson completed 29 of 38 passes for 409 yards, 5 touchdowns, and no interceptions. He has topped 300 yards in all 6 games and 400 in back-to-back weeks. At some point, the C2C price has to catch up with the production.
Jonaz Walton Explodes
Walton carried 13 times for 181 yards and 2 touchdowns in Notre Dame’s 58 to 7 win over Stanford. His 97- and 40-yard touchdowns made up most of the yardage, but explosive plays count too. The bigger story is that the true freshman opportunity keeps growing.
Isaac Brown’s Box Score Needs Context
Brown ran for 235 yards and 2 touchdowns on 17 carries in Louisville’s win over Florida State. His 97- and 68-yard touchdowns accounted for 165 yards, leaving 15 carries for 70 yards without them. Enjoy the explosiveness, but do not pretend every touch was dominant.
Nate Sheppard Shows the Complete Package
Sheppard finished with 99 rushing yards, 7 catches for 91 yards and 2 touchdowns on 34 total touches. The rushing efficiency was nothing special, but the workload and receiving usage continue to support a true three-down campus role.
Arch Manning Gives Us Both Sides
Arch completed 19 of 31 passes for 260 yards, 3 touchdowns and 2 interceptions in Texas’ 27 to 24 loss to Oklahoma. He led the fourth-quarter tying drive, but his second interception also gave Oklahoma the short field for the winning kick.
Dylan Raiola Gets Benched
Raiola completed 6 of 19 passes for 43 yards with 2 interceptions, lost a fumble, and was replaced by Brock Thomas. Thomas nearly brought Oregon back, completing 11 of 15 passes for 156 yards and a touchdown.
Keelon Russell Meets a Real Defense
Russell completed 16 of 30 passes for 185 yards and a touchdown while adding 41 rushing yards against Georgia. It was his first game below 285 passing yards. No panic, but Georgia reminded us that the sophomore is still developing.
