Dynasty Value Check: What Are We Doing With These Stars? Some dynasty players are easy to value. Others sit right in the uncomfortable middle where buying, selling, or holding can all make sense. Garret Price and Andrew Mott work through five major names that dynasty managers need to make decisions on right now. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Ashton Jeanty remains one of dynasty's top young running backs, but his week-to-week ceiling has not matched the elite tier above him. Christian Watson is producing like a fantasy WR1, but touchdown regression and Green Bay's changing target distribution make his long-term value harder to pin down. The biggest quarterback debate centers on Jayden Daniels. His rushing ceiling remains elite, but injuries, inconsistent passing production, and uncertainty in Washington have created more risk than expected. Drake London has looked like a star again with Michael Penix Jr. under center, while Chase Brown remains an intriguing buy for contenders despite a disappointing start. The key is roster context. Some of these players are holds. Others become buys only at the right price.

Dynasty Running Back Values Are Getting Complicated The dynasty running back landscape is getting uncomfortable. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price break down a surprisingly thin group of young backs while also reacting to the massive Marvin Harrison Jr. trade to Houston. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube A fresh start alongside C.J. Stroud creates an intriguing new opportunity for Harrison. The talent that made him an elite prospect has not disappeared, but determining the right price remains difficult. Is this the moment to buy the dip, or should managers use the excitement surrounding the trade to finally move on? Beyond Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs, finding young running backs who combine security, production, and long-term upside is becoming difficult. The guys work through names like Ashton Jeanty, Jeremiah Love, Breece Hall, Bucky Irving, Omarion Hampton, Quinshon Judkins, TreVeyon Henderson, and Bhayshul Tuten to determine who can actually be trusted. That scarcity could also keep productive veterans valuable much longer than dynasty managers normally expect.

2026 Dynasty Rookies Changing Our Minds Three weeks into the season, some members of the 2026 rookie class already look very different than they did during draft season. Garret Price and Andrew Mott revisit the prospects who have forced them to adjust their evaluations, for better or worse. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Caleb Douglas has already earned a significant role in Miami after entering the league as a player Andrew was skeptical of. Kaelon Black has similarly moved up after establishing himself as Christian McCaffrey's clear backup in San Francisco. Garret has also become more encouraged by Emmett Johnson, whose receiving ability and elusiveness have translated better than expected. Even without playing yet, Fernando Mendoza benefits from how promising the Raiders offense has looked under Clint Kubiak. The start has been much rougher for Elijah Sarratt, who has struggled to even crack Baltimore's active lineup. Makai Lemon is also creating concern. The Eagles are getting him on the field, but his extremely shallow usage has looked more like a gadget role than the complete receiver role Garret expected coming into the league.

How to Value Injured Dynasty Stars Right Now Injuries are creating some of the most difficult trade decisions of the dynasty season. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price break down what they would actually pay for injured stars depending on whether a roster is contending, rebuilding, or stuck somewhere in the middle. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube De'Von Achane becomes a fascinating target for a soft rebuild, where the immediate lost production matters far less than his long-term upside. Jayden Daniels creates a completely different debate for contenders, with elite upside balanced against growing durability concerns. The guys also work through Breece Hall and Jaxson Dart, showing why the exact same player can be a buy, sell, or pass depending on where your dynasty roster stands. The second half gets less serious with Dynasty Nerds' first dating game. Hidden player profiles force Rich and Matt to choose between mystery quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, and flex options without knowing exactly who they are getting. The results include some great picks, some immediate regret, and one particularly painful Michael Penix Jr. reveal.

Dynasty Risers and Fallers After Week 3 Dynasty values are moving quickly after another chaotic week of football. Garret Price and Peter Bartausky break down the biggest risers, fallers, injuries, and potential trade windows emerging across the league. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Drake Maye has struggled badly to open the season, but Garret and Peter are not treating the downturn as a reason to sell. Instead, the market's frustration may finally be creating the buy-low window that did not exist during the offseason. The concern is much stronger with Brian Thomas Jr.. Three games into the season, his usage and production have fallen well short of expectations, creating legitimate questions about where his dynasty value goes from here. Tyler Shough is starting to win over the skeptics as New Orleans continues playing fast and putting him in fantasy-friendly situations. Rookie tight end Kenyon Sadiq may be even more intriguing after his usage and athleticism flashed again. Ollie Gordon II also becomes the week's biggest riser following the De'Von Achane injury, although the sudden value spike could create a better selling opportunity than a long-term breakout.

2026 Rookie Class Review: Stock Up or Stock Down? The 2026 rookie class entered the season with plenty of hype, but two weeks of NFL action have already started separating the hits from the concerns. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price revisit the class and decide whose dynasty stock has actually changed. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Denzel Boston has been the biggest early riser. The separation, explosiveness, and big-play ability have translated better than expected, creating a legitimate argument for him as one of the first receivers selected if rookie drafts were held again today. KC Concepcion is also trending upward, while the guys remain patient with Carnell Tate despite Tennessee's struggling offense. On the other side, recurring injury concerns have Jordan Tyson moving down. The show closes with another round of Adjust the Ranks. Christian Watson gets a major boost, Brock Purdy enters the elite dynasty quarterback conversation, and Chris Olave forces another look at where he belongs among fantasy's top wide receivers.

Dynasty Fantasy Football Buy Low Targets After Week 2 Two weeks of football is enough to move dynasty markets, but it is not always enough to change what we know about a player. Garret Price and Andrew Mott identify the early-season dips they are looking to buy before prices rebound. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Justin Herbert has opened the season slowly, but his dynasty price may finally have fallen far enough to create a buying opportunity. Atlanta offers two more potential discounts. Kyle Pitts has produced almost nothing through two weeks, while Drake London has also disappointed. The return of Michael Penix Jr. could quickly change both conversations. Quinshon Judkins has not delivered the rushing production managers expected, but increased receiving involvement keeps his long-term outlook intriguing. The same patience applies to Colston Loveland, Drake Maye, Jaxson Dart, and Carnell Tate. Early production has created uncertainty, but dynasty managers willing to look beyond two games may find some of the best buying windows of the season. 00:00 Start 01:03 Justin Herbert 05:25 Kyle Pitts 08:54 Drake London 11:38 Quinshon Judkins 15:27 Hello, I'm Ugly 17:16 Colston Loveland 25:28 Jaxson Dart 29:59 Carnell Tate Learn more about your ad choices.

2027 Rookie Class Risers and Fallers The 2027 rookie class already looks loaded, but the opening weeks of college football are changing the conversation. Garret Price and Andrew Mott break down the prospects climbing dynasty boards and the names starting to lose momentum. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Darian Mensah has quickly entered the QB1 conversation after a dominant start at Miami. Garret is already comfortable putting him atop the quarterback class if rookie drafts were held today. At running back, Jadan Baugh is making an equally strong push. His size, receiving ability, contact balance, and improved explosiveness have him challenging for RB1 status. Reed Harris may be the biggest breakout name of the group. At 6-foot-5 with legitimate movement skills, the Arizona State receiver has quickly become a prospect dynasty managers need to know. The early season has been less encouraging for Dante Moore. After entering the year with potential top-five NFL Draft expectations, Garret and Andrew have not seen the franchise quarterback level play necessary to maintain that valuation. The 2027 class remains deep, but the order is already changing.

Fantasy Football Panic Meter: Who Should You Actually Worry About? Week 1 creates some of the best dynasty buying and selling windows of the entire season. Rich Dotson and Matt O'Hara hit the panic meter and decide which disappointing performances matter and which ones fantasy managers should ignore. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube A quiet opener from Kyle Pitts is not enough to create real concern, especially considering Atlanta's quarterback situation. De'Von Achane creates a more complicated discussion. The talent and workload remain attractive, but Miami's struggling offense could lower the fantasy ceiling managers expected. There are also questions surrounding Colston Loveland after Chicago scored 59 points without him recording a catch. The concern is less about talent and more about how many mouths Ben Johnson has to feed. Parker Washington is becoming impossible to ignore. His Week 1 usage continued the breakout we saw last season, creating legitimate discussion about just how high he belongs in dynasty rankings. Kenneth Walker made an equally strong statement. His combination of talent, workload, and offensive environment has him pushing into the top tier of dynasty running backs.

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers After Week 1 Week 1 gave dynasty managers plenty to react to, but separating meaningful changes from one week of noise is the challenge. Garret Price, Rich Dotson, and Peter Bartausky break down the biggest fantasy football risers and fallers after the opening weekend. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Caleb Williams delivered the type of performance that could push him into the very top tier of dynasty quarterbacks. The combination of efficiency, rushing production, weapons, and stability in Chicago's offense makes his ceiling difficult to ignore. Dalton Kincaid also made a statement with 130 receiving yards, while Bryce Young continued showing signs of progression in Carolina. The fallers bring much tougher decisions. Cam Ward struggled despite Tennessee leaning heavily on the passing game, while MarShawn Lloyd failed to capitalize on his opportunity in Green Bay. Then there is Marvin Harrison Jr. A three target Week 1 only adds to the concern surrounding his role in Arizona's passing attack. It is only one week, but dynasty is a game of value windows.
