📋 Week 7 is here. We’re breaking down fantasy football rankings, the smash spots and crash spots at every position, hitting the injuries that could wreck your lineup, and going rapid-fire on the start/sit calls you’re still sweating. Kendall and Pete go through the top 12 quarterbacks, top 24 running backs, top 24 receivers and top 12 tight ends, then get into the spots that actually decide your week — Kyler Murray in a smash spot with Patrick Mahomes in a crash spot, Braelon Allen and Jaylen Warren at running back with a warning on Jonathan Taylor, Matthew Golden and Omar Cooper Jr. at receiver with Garrett Wilson on the other side, and both sides of tight end with Tyler Higbee smashing and Tyler Warren crashing. Then the Week 7 injury report. Terry McLaurin is out for the season with a torn patellar tendon, which means figuring out which Commanders pass catchers actually become fantasy-relevant. Mike Evans is set to miss time with an Achilles injury, opening the door for whichever 49ers receiver is left standing. Breece Hall returned to practice while Adonai Mitchell was limited, which changes the Jets picture. And Lamar Jackson was seen at practice Thursday, which would be a significant upgrade for the whole Ravens offense. Then a rapid-fire start/sit round on Jacoby Brissett, Josh Downs, Harold Fannin Jr., Michael Wilson, RJ Harvey and Ollie Gordon, and they close by building a DFS lineup together for the week. 🔍 Topics in this video: fantasy football start or sit this week for week 7, fantasy football rankings, fantasy rankings changes, week 7 injury report, week 7 fantasy smash spots, week 7 fantasy crash spots, week 7 QB rankings, Week 7 RB rankings, Week 7 WR rankings, Week 7 TE rankings, Week 7 NFL DFS lineup building, Kyler Murray, Patrick Mahomes, Braelon Allen, Jaylen Warren, Jonathan Taylor, Matthew Golden, Omar Cooper Jr, Garrett Wilson, Tyler Higbee, Tyler Warren, Terry McLaurin, Mike Evans, Breece Hall, Adonai Mitchell, Lamar Jackson, Jacoby Brissett, Josh Downs, Harold Fannin Jr, Michael Wilson, RJ Harvey, Ollie Gordon Learn more about your ad choices.

Then Real Football vs. Fake Football with former NFL offensive coordinator Scott Turner — whether C.J. Stroud is officially back to his rookie-year self, what Travis Hunter brings to the Jaguars offense on part-time snaps and whether he should be playing more, and how hard to press the panic button on a 2-4 Rams team that opened the year as Super Bowl favorites. Then It’s Not Me, It’s You, with Pete going at Justin Herbert and Kendall going at Kenneth Walker. Then the Week 7 waiver wire with the Bills, Chargers, Commanders and Jaguars all on bye. J.J. McCarthy at quarterback. Roschon Johnson, Seth McGowan, Tyrone Tracy and Kendre Miller at running back. Omar Cooper, Ja’Kobi Lane, Jaylin Noel, Malachi Fields and Travis Hunter at receiver.

Marvin Harrison Jr. is in Houston, and that’s not the only thing that moved. Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose utilization shifted going into Week 6 — and what’s actually driving each one. Rhamondre Stevenson climbs to a borderline RB1. Marvin Harrison Jr. rises to WR4 with WR3 upside, and they get into what specifically about the Texans offense changes his outlook. Isaiah Likely pushes into high-end TE1 territory, and Mike Evans moves up to a high-end WR2. Going the other way: Jaylen Waddle falls into WR3 range. Then the part your league isn’t thinking about yet. Is Bhayshul Tuten somehow a buy low and a sell high at the same time? Is Jeremiyah Love a buy at his current price? And is Denzel Boston a sell while people still believe? They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again: what average route depth would knock Marvin Harrison Jr. down to a mid-range WR3, what attempt share makes MarShawn Lloyd a short-term low-end RB2, and what Emeka Egbuka becomes at a 25% target share with Baker Mayfield back. And they close with the stashes to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Samaje Perine, Pete on Roschon Johnson. 🔍 Topics in this video: 2026 fantasy football, stock up stock down, buy low sell high, route participation, utilization, week 6 fantasy football, Marvin Harrison Jr, Rhamondre Stevenson, Isaiah Likely, Mike Evans, Jaylen Waddle, Bhayshul Tuten, Jeremiyah Love, Denzel Boston, MarShawn Lloyd, Emeka Egbuka, Baker Mayfield, Samaje Perine, Roschon Johnson, fantasy football trade targets, waiver wire Learn more about your ad choices.

📋 Week 5 is here. We’re breaking down fantasy football rankings, the smash spots and crash spots at every position, hitting the injuries that could wreck your lineup, and going rapid-fire on the start/sit calls you’re still sweating. Kendall and Pete go through the top 12 quarterbacks, top 24 running backs, top 24 receivers and top 12 tight ends, then get into the spots that actually decide your week — Jacoby Brissett and Matthew Stafford in smash spots with Brock Purdy in a crash spot, D’Andre Swift and Aaron Jones at running back with a warning on James Cook, Jameson Williams and Michael Wilson at receiver with Chris Olave on the other side, and both sides of tight end with Mike Gesicki smashing and Tucker Kraft crashing. Then the Week 5 injury report. Lamar Jackson’s ankle sprain is being called “unconventional,” so how do you handle the Ravens offense with Tyler Huntley under center. Saquon Barkley is week-to-week, which means deciding how confident you actually are in Will Shipley. Rhamondre Stevenson has a knee issue from Sunday, which could mean wheels up for TreVeyon Henderson. And Ladd McConkey is day-to-day, which raises the real question — can you start any Chargers pass catcher at all if he sits. Then a rapid-fire start/sit round on Josh Downs, Jayden Daniels, Dalton Kincaid, Ollie Gordon and Woody Marks, and they close by building a DFS lineup together for the week. 🔍 Topics in this video: fantasy football start or sit this week for week 5, fantasy football rankings, fantasy rankings changes, week 5 injury report, week 5 fantasy smash spots, week 5 fantasy crash spots, week 5 QB rankings, Week 5 RB rankings, Week 5 WR rankings, Week 5 TE rankings, Week 5 NFL DFS lineup building, Jacoby Brissett, Matthew Stafford, Brock Purdy, D’Andre Swift, Aaron Jones, James Cook, Jameson Williams, Michael Wilson, Chris Olave, Mike Gesicki, Tucker Kraft, Lamar Jackson, Tyler Huntley, Saquon Barkley, Will Shipley, Rhamondre Stevenson, TreVeyon Henderson, Ladd McConkey, Josh Downs, Jayden Daniels, Dalton Kincaid, Ollie Gordon, Woody Marks Learn more about your ad choices.

📋 Someone call the medic. Week 4 did real damage, and we're working through all of it — the injury report that reshaped multiple offenses, what's actually going on with a few teams, the overreactions worth having, and the Week 5 waiver wire.Kendall and Pete open with the Week 4 injury report. Lamar Jackson's ankle and how far you downgrade the Ravens pass catchers if Tyler Huntley is under center. Saquon Barkley's hamstring; DJ Moore re-aggravating his shoulder and whether Keon Coleman is the clear pickup. And Rashee Rice's hamstring plus Tyquan Thornton's ankle leaving Kansas City thin enough that signing Tyreek Hill starts to look less crazy.Then Real Football vs. Fake Football with former NFL offensive coordinator Scott Turner — what actually changed for Drake Maye this week after three weeks of something different, and what it is about Ben Johnson's offense that keeps producing no matter who's playing quarterback or running back.Then Overreaction Monday. Saving the date for the Kenneth Walker and Eric Bieniemy wedding. Whether the RB-WR stack becomes the redraft trend next year after Puka and Kyren, CeeDee and Javonte, and Chuba and Tetairoa. Whether the 4-0 Vikings should still be shopping for a quarterback. Whether Jadarian Price has a job to come back to off IR. And a plea to put Tyler Allgeier somewhere without an elite running back ahead of him. Plus Imagine That, presented by Xfinity Shield, on the Texans missing the playoffs because of their defense.Then Week 5 waivers with Panthers and Chiefs on bye: Jalon Daniels at quarterback, Emanuel Wilson, Tank Bigsby, Seth McGowan and Tyler Goodson at running back, Keon Coleman, Roman Wilson, Antonio Williams, Cyrus Allen and Dont'e Meyers at receiver, and Brenton Strange as the top tight end priority.🔍 Topics in this video:fantasy football week 5 waiver wire, week 5 waiver wire pickups, fantasy football advice 2026, overreaction monday, week 4 fantasy football recap, week 4 injury report, Lamar Jackson injury, Tyler Huntley, Saquon Barkley, Tank Bigsby, DJ Moore, Keon Coleman, Rashee Rice, Tyquan Thornton, Tyreek Hill, Scott Turner, Drake Maye, Ben Johnson, Kenneth Walker, Tyler Allgeier, Jadarian Price, Puka Nacua, Kyren Williams, CeeDee Lamb, Javonte Williams, Chuba Hubbard, Tetairoa McMillan, Jalon Daniels, Emanuel Wilson, Seth McGowan, Tyler Goodson, Roman Wilson, Antonio Williams, Brenton Strange Learn more about your ad choices.

Whether you're 0-3 or 3-0, one well-timed trade can change your whole season. Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose utilization is on the rise going into Week 4 — and what's actually driving each move.Cam Skattebo climbs to a mid-range RB2 after a Week 3 where his snaps, rushes and route work all jumped at once. Jeremiyah Love rises to mid-range RB2 off a backfield that's tilted almost entirely his way. Josh Downs moves to a low-end WR2 as his role shifts downfield. Kenyon Sadiq jumps to a high-end TE2 after a 23.5-point Week 3 that came on a modest route share — which is the interesting part. And George Kittle rises to TE3 overall.Then the backfields where the lead guy is hurt — which of the Jets pair of Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, the Dolphins pair of Ollie Gordon and Jaylen Wright, or the Saints pair of Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller you can actually start this week.Then the part your league isn't thinking about yet. Is Chase Brown a buy low with his role intact but his production sliding? Is Bhayshul Tuten a sell high after three straight weeks under a 50% snap share while his fantasy points keep climbing? And is Tetairoa McMillan a buy low in an offense that keeps feeding him?They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again this week: what route share puts DJ Moore in mid-range WR2 territory, what Jordan Addison becomes with Justin Jefferson out, and what gets Kenyon Sadiq into low-end TE1 range.And they close with three adds to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Jaylen Wright, Pete stashing Tyler Goodson, Kendall on Tre Harris.🔍 Topics in this video:2026 fantasy football, stock up stock down, buy low sell high, route participation, utilization, week 4 fantasy football, Cam Skattebo, Jeremiyah Love, Josh Downs, Kenyon Sadiq, George Kittle, Braelon Allen, Isaiah Davis, Ollie Gordon, Jaylen Wright, Alvin Kamara, Kendre Miller, Chase Brown, Bhayshul Tuten, Tetairoa McMillan, DJ Moore, Jordan Addison, Justin Jefferson, Tyler Goodson, Tre Harris, fantasy football trade targets, waiver wireTimecodes:00:00:00 - Coming Up00:00:00 - Cam Skattebo00:00:00 - Jeremiyah Love00:00:00 - Josh Downs00:00:00 - Kenyon Sadiq00:00:00 - George Kittle00:00:00 - Starting a Backup RB in Week 400:00:00 - Buy Chase Brown Low?00:00:00 - Sell Bhayshul Tuten High?00:00:00 - Buy Tetairoa McMillan Low?00:00:00 - Dwain-Lib: DJ Moore00:00:00 - Dwain-Lib: Jordan Addison00:00:00 - Moves to Make NOW to Get Ahead Learn more about your ad choices.

📋 Week 3 is here. We're breaking down fantasy football rankings, the smash spots and crash spots at every position, hitting the injuries that could wreck your lineup, and going rapid-fire on the start/sit calls you're still sweating.Kendall and Pete go through the top 12 quarterbacks, top 24 running backs, top 24 receivers and top 12 tight ends, then get into the spots that actually decide your week — Brock Purdy and Geno Smith in smash spots, Matthew Stafford in a crash spot, Jaylen Warren, Quinshon Judkins, and a warning on Travis Etienne.

Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose stock actually moved after Week 2 — and more importantly, the specific utilization behind each move.Parker Washington climbs again, this time to a low-end WR1. Jalen Coker rises into mid-range WR3 territory. Dalton Kincaid moves all the way into the top five at tight end. Going the other way: Rashee Rice slides to a low-end WR2, and the Bears pair of Colston Loveland and Luther Burden both drop, Loveland to a low-end TE1 and Burden to a high-end WR4.Then the part your league isn't thinking about yet. Bucky Irving has the sixth-highest running back utilization score in football at 90 — is that a buy even at a high price? George Pickens is averaging just 7.9 points per game on an 85% route share and a 23% target share, which is the exact profile of a player about to be cheap. Tucker Kraft's route participation jumped from 48% in Week 1 to 91% in Week 2 while his production fell. And Stefon Diggs is scoring 18.6 per game on a 59% route share — the definition of a sell.They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again this week: what route share puts Oronde Gadsden in the TE8-to-TE10 range, what gets Brian Thomas Jr. into WR3 territory, and what designed rush rate makes Tyler Shough a QB10-to-QB12 option. Those are the exact numbers to watch on Sunday.And they close with three adds to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Kenyon Sadiq, Pete on Oronde Gadsden, Kendall on Demond Claiborne.🔍 Topics in this video:2026 fantasy football, stock up stock down, buy low sell high, route participation, utilization, Parker Washington, Rashee Rice, Jalen Coker, Colston Loveland, Luther Burden, Dalton Kincaid, Bucky Irving, George Pickens, Tucker Kraft, Stefon Diggs, Oronde Gadsden, Brian Thomas Jr., Tyler Shough, Kenyon Sadiq, Demond Claiborne, fantasy football trade targets, waiver wire, week 3 fantasy football Learn more about your ad choices.

We're breaking down fantasy football rankings, the smash spots and crash spots at every position, hitting the injuries that could wreck your lineup, and going rapid-fire on the start/sit calls you're still sweating. Kendall and Pete go through the top 12 quarterbacks, top 24 running backs, top 24 receivers and top 12 tight ends, then get into the spots that actually decide your week — Dak Prescott and Jayden Daniels in smash spots, Trevor Lawrence in a crash spot, Aaron Jones against the Bears, Bucky Irving, and a warning on Jeremiyah Love.

It's Monday after Week 1 of fantasy football. Somebody in your league is about to drop a player they drafted in the fourth round. Don't be that person.Kendall Valenzuela and Peter Overzet are kicking off "Overreaction Monday" on everything Week 1 threw at us! We're sorting the results that actually mean something from the ones that are going to look silly in three weeks.They start with the takes that feel true right now and probably aren't: the Bears as the highest-scoring offense of all time, the Bills looking like a Super Bowl lock after what they did to Houston, and the Chargers costing you more than just your survivor pool. Then the backfield questions — whether Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery can both finish as RB1s, whether Jonathon Brooks getting out-rushed by A.J. Dillon is a real problem, and what a Travis Etienne rotation means once Alvin Kamara is back.Then the part that hurts: Ja'Marr Chase, Drake London and DeVonta Smith all laid an egg, and the target and target-share numbers tell three completely different stories about why. Bench, cut, or fire into the sun? Plus the tight end debate Kendall has apparently been waiting all offseason to win.The back half is entirely actionable. Every waiver target worth a claim this week, position by position — Jalen Coker as the headline add, quarterback help in Tyler Shough and Carson Wentz, Kaelon Black at running back, a deep receiver group in Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Demarcus Robinson and DeVaughn Vele, and Michael Mayer at tight end.And then they write letters. It's Not Me, It's You — Pete to Zay Flowers and Ja'Kobi Lane, Kendall to Carson Wentz.🔍 Topics in this video:2026 fantasy football, week 1 recap, overreaction monday, waiver wire, Ja'Marr Chase, Drake London, DeVonta Smith, Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery, Jonathon Brooks, Travis Etienne, Christian Watson, Isaiah Likely, Theo Johnson, Jalen Coker, Tyler Shough, Carson Wentz, Kaelon Black, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Demarcus Robinson, DeVaughn Vele, Michael Mayer, Zay Flowers, fantasy football waiver wire, week 2 fantasy football Learn more about your ad choices.

Right now, before a single snap has been played in Week 1, your fantasy football waiver wire is the most wide open it will be all season. Nobody has panicked yet. Nobody has dropped anybody. This is the window. Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet each bring four moves to make before Week 1 kicks off — real adds and stashes on players who are still sitting on waivers in most leagues. Dwain goes to Terrance Ferguson, who could climb into top-12 tight end territory if he has a real role in Los Angeles, then Ja'Kobi Lane, and closes with a genuine sicko stash between Demond Claiborne and Kaytron Allen. Pete makes the case for a rookie receiver stash with Ted Hurst, Antonio Williams and Chris Bell, then Kaleb Johnson, then a Chargers tight end between Oronde Gadsden and Charlie Kolar. Kendall goes rookie running back with Jonah Coleman and Nicholas Singleton, then Malik Davis, then Malachi Fields. Every add comes with Fantasy Life's Week 1 projections — targets, receptions, yards, and the bust, median and ceiling outcomes — so you know exactly what you're rostering and what the range looks like. Then the back half flips to Utilization Mad Libs: the players they still have real questions about, and precisely what usage would change their minds. If Dalton Kincaid runs 80% of routes, he moves into the top eight tight ends. If Makai Lemon runs 85%, he becomes a WR3 with upside. If Jordan Mason takes a 60% rush share, he's a low-end RB2. Those are the exact numbers to watch on Sunday, and knowing them ahead of time is how you get to the wire before everyone else. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
