2026 Dynasty Football Factory Startup Mock: The New Relationship

All Access, Dynasty, Mock Drafts, Strategy Content / By /

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.

Justin Jefferson

The Jefferson Tax Act: Dynasty Fantasy Football’s Most Expensive WR2

All Access, Dynasty / By /

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.

Buy Tyler Allgeier in Dynasty While You Still Can

Dynasty / By /

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.

The Superflex Cheat Code: Stashing Backup Quarterbacks

Dynasty / By /

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.

Running Back Sleepers to Target in Your Rookie Drafts

Dynasty, Rookie / By /

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.

Why You Should Fade Quarterbacks (Including Drake Maye) in Dynasty Startup Drafts

Dynasty, Strategy Content / By /

Dynasty startup drafts are where leagues are won or lost. Not because of flashy picks. Not because you landed a superstar quarterback. They’re won through positional leverage — understanding where real weekly edges exist and where managers are paying for name recognition instead of production. After reviewing five Dynasty startup drafts and comparing positional scoring, one conclusion became impossible to ignore: Quarterbacks are being massively overdrafted in early rounds.

Wide Receiver Sleepers to Target in Your Rookie Drafts

All Access, Dynasty, Rookie / By /

First, let us look at how many wide receivers got drafted since 2010 in Rounds 4 and 5. There have been 120 guys drafted in Rounds 4 and 5 since 2010. Next, I looked at guys who scored fantasy points in college because we want guys who are going to score fantasy points. I looked at guys who scored 15 or more points because there seemed to be a big drop-off after that. After that, I looked at guys who broke out early in college. I picked 20 years old as my cut-off age, again, that seemed like a big drop off for the guys who broke out later than that. Lastly, I looked at their height, and the guys who were 71 inches tall or shorter were not doing well in the NFL, so I went with greater than 71 inches tall and narrowed down my list to something I am happy with.

Kaytron Allen

Kaytron Allen: The Rookie Running Back Who Wins the Boring Way

Dynasty, Rookie, Rookie Player Profiles / By /

Kaytron Allen is the type of running back I fall in love with. Not because he’s going to run away from everyone. Not because he’s going to give you 60-yard highlights every week. But because he’s the kind of back that keeps drives alive. He finds the hole, stays square, and gets you what’s there. Over and over. At ~5’11” and 220-225 pounds, Allen is built like a real NFL runner. Compact. Strong. Low center of gravity. He’s hard to stop once he gets moving, and when contact shows up, he’s still finishing forward.

2026 Dynasty Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Quarterback Model

Dynasty, Rookie, Strategy Content / By /

My goals for this Quarterback model are to help us win more championships and have fewer busts in our rookie drafts for Dynasty football. Some players get hyped up with the Senior Bowl and the NFL Combine each year, but they are landmines, and I want to help you avoid them if possible. Quarterbacks should always be one of the first pieces of your team, but you should always take the best player available in your rookie drafts and trade for needs.
