Running backs come in a lot of shapes, but the ones who last in the NFL usually bring a mix of size, speed, and toughness. Mike Washington Jr. checks those boxes. At 6’1” and around 223 pounds, he looks like the kind of back built to handle a heavy workload. What separates him from most runners his size is the speed. When he hits open space, he can erase angles in a hurry. Washington spent his college career climbing the ladder. He started in the MAC before finishing at Arkansas in the SEC, proving along the way that his game translated against better competition. By the time the 2025 season ended, he had established himself as one of the most productive backs in the conference.

Let’s talk about a tier one tight end that isn’t getting enough love. If #85 Packers TE Tucker Kraft wasn’t injured last year, he would be tier one right now. And it’s not crazy to say he could be the best tight end overall. 25 years old. Kraft is a key offensive weapon who has shown high-level performance. Especially with his yard after catch (YAC). He was phenomenal in a 2025 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, where he caught a 7-yard touchdown pass from Jordan Love. Kraft was the major factor in the success versus the Cardinals.

Goodness, gracious. This trade is gold for both parties. D.J. Moore made it possible for Buffalo and Chicago to become better. It cost the Buffalo Bills a 2026 second-round pick. In exchange, the Bears sent D.J. Moore and their 2026 fifth-round pick. For Chicago, this opens up so much in a crowded offensive room. Caleb has the weapons to throw to, even with Moore being shipped out. This opens up opportunities for two promising second-year players to shine: Luther Buden III (WR) and Colston Loveland (TE). Hello, young men! These youngsters will have a chance to be special, special. I guarantee they are both already soaring in Dynasty as hot commodities and will be hot as a spoon is a trap house at the beginning of the month. They have shown they are capable of producing in their 2025 rookie campaigns.

Dynasty Startup Season is often reminiscent of beginning a new romantic relationship. In many ways, you’ve learned valuable lessons about what works and, more importantly, what doesn’t. You promise yourself you won’t repeat old mistakes. You tell yourself you’ll stay patient, trust your board, and not reach for the shiny new thing just because everyone else is swooning. And yet, when you’re finally on the clock, emotions tend to creep back in.

Let’s just say it out loud: Justin Jefferson is being drafted like it’s still 2022. But it’s not 2022 anymore. And the numbers don’t care about reputation. I’m not saying Jefferson is bad. I’m not saying he suddenly forgot how to run routes. I am saying that fantasy managers are paying for a version of Jefferson that no longer exists — and may not be coming back, despite where he lands in NFL fantasy rankings. This is not my Packers’ bias coming into play – although I do enjoy seeing him fail. What this actually is is a classic case of name value outrunning production.

In the past, trading Tyler Allgeier in Dynasty was advisable because his value was heavily capped as a backup to Bijan Robinson. He gave us good games here and there, but his upside was always capped. While talented, his limited long-term upside in Atlanta has been capped since the arrival of Bijan. Allgeier is a prime candidate to trade for, offering a second round pick or a package of other assets. In my opinion, this is the time to both acquire or sell him.

In Superflex leagues, your quarterback room is absolutely vital. It can make or break your season. In 2024, 59 signal-callers started at least one NFL game. In 2025, that number grew to 63. Every year, more and more, we’re seeing Dynasty contenders have their campaigns derailed by injuries or benchings. Having a stash of QBs at your disposal could help you get through those rough patches. The reality is a backup QB who gets even a start or two is almost always more useful — and valuable — than a WR9 or TE5 rotting away on your bench. You can either plug them into your lineup as needed or flip them for picks or an upgrade at another position. Those fringe skill players will rarely ever crack your lineup. Get those roster cloggers out of there. Instead of keeping them, use those precious spots on backup QBs who can become instant difference-makers should they get thrust into a starting gig. With that in mind, here is a list of backup QBs I believe you should be trying to acquire for 2026.

Everyone gets excited for their rookie draft picks, hoping to find the next superstar. It can really change the trajectory of your team if you hit on your picks, but it can also destroy your team if you do a poor job drafting. In this article, I will examine running backs who are sleepers, drafted outside the top 100. The players that should be picked in Rounds 3 or 4 of rookie drafts. If you hit on one of these guys, they can help make you a contender year in and year out and provide valuable targets for your rookie drafts. Most third and fourth-round picks are busts in rookie drafts, so hitting on one of these gives you a big edge on your league mates. First, let us look at how many running backs have been drafted in Rounds 4 and 5 since 2015. Since 2015, 75 players have been drafted in Rounds 4 and 5. A lot of them are landmines in rookie drafts, and my goal is to help you avoid them.
