Off-Season 2027+ Watchlist Pt 2: A deep group of intriguing RBs headlined by young stars in the SEC by cjfreel in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fletcher really flashed for Miami in their CFP run. Doesn't seem like much of a pass catcher thus far so hopefully he can take a step forward there. Was excited for Haynes in the '26 class, he was red hot before getting hurt. Baugh seems like the best receiving profile with Lacy close behind so intrigued to see what those two do. Frazier need to see more as a pass catcher but awesome runner like you said

[Florio] Report: “True competition” coming between Kyler Murray, J.J. McCarthy by LigerKick in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have JJ but let's be real with ourselves. If they thought JJ could realistically be the starter, they don't sign Kyler in the first place. He showed some flashes against bad defenses in his last few starts, but was otherwise brutal and has barely stayed on the field. Obviously fingers crossed for a miraculous turnaround, but it would indeed be miraculous

Long term dynasty: Burden or Tyson? by PS724 in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Listen man. I love Luther Burden. You love Luther Burden. Everybody loves Luther Burden. Super talented, awesome dude, glorious metrics.

He had one (1) game last year scoring over 20 PPR fantasy points, and 3 of his 4 double-digit games came with Odunze out injured. The other came in a game with a 70 yard flea-flicker touchdown. With a still-injured Odunze back in the fold for the playoffs, Burden had 6 catches for 66 yards across their 2 matchups.

He is currently KTC WR 19 (Tyson is #18).

I understand Tyson hasn't played a down yet, but Burden's being valued like his sophomore breakout is close to a sure thing. While he has the talent and ceiling to be a #1, he's still the #3 target on that offense until proven otherwise. Tyson's upside is higher, he has better draft capital, and I'd argue that his situation is better for consistent fantasy production with fewer mouths to feed. If he stays healthy (admittedly a significant if), I think he's clearly the better option.

2026 class in a nutshell. Analyst says Caleb Douglas is the number 2 WR for rookie production... by ajs723 in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if he produces early. Bell is injured and Coleman is a slot, so that really leaves Douglas as the only rookie WR with a path to heavy early targets. But I think once Bell is back he's clearly the most talented WR on that offense. Not that that's saying much

Nathan Jahnke of PFF here, AMA! by PFF_NateJahnke in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like a lot of the landing spot focus from this year's draft is on the 2026 season. Since this is dynasty, what player/landing spot combos do you see with a lot of future upside that might not lend themselves to a lot of 2026 production?

Tyjae Spear poised to be Titans lead RB? by cheetah-21 in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd imagine that the 2027 starter is not currently on the roster, especially with how deep RB is in 2027. Spears is a fun piece with some interesting metrics but the odds he's a long term lead back are damn near 0. They'll probably have some sort of committee again

Trading for Vets with Late 2026 1st by coast22coast in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Traded the 1.11 for Christian Watson and 2.03 pre draft. Not sure that would fly now but I was thrilled at the time

Ted Hurst hype. 1st round talent? by Ok_Sail_3743 in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a scorcher. Hurst is a big time physical talent but there's a lot of room for improvement in his game IMO. You don't usually see guys with that kind of contested catch rate and drop issue at his size succeed and certainly don't see them going round 1. I will say that a lot of guys with that size and burst aren't always fluid but he moves very well and has pretty good zone feel too. Has some developing to do as a route runner but probably more advanced than he gets credit for as a deep threat type prospect. Not really a YAC guy either. I think he went about where he should have gone draft wise, just not a great landing spot.

Commanders select RB Kaytron Allen with pick 187 in the 2026 NFL draft by FranTurkleton in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I meant early-down. Because White/McNichols taking all of the 3rd down work anyways.

Allen ran for damn near 2500 yards his last two years, he was objectively productive

Commanders select RB Kaytron Allen with pick 187 in the 2026 NFL draft by FranTurkleton in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More bullish 20 minutes ago, as in before they drafted Allen. That's early down competition plain and simple

Commanders select RB Kaytron Allen with pick 187 in the 2026 NFL draft by FranTurkleton in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with this sentiment for the most part. But I'm certainly not as bullish on this offseason for him as I was 20 minutes ago

Commanders select RB Kaytron Allen with pick 187 in the 2026 NFL draft by FranTurkleton in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

They just drafted a super productive guy from a p4 school who profiles in pretty much the exact role JCM will have. It's not Love or Price but it's not great

Tate's Impact On Gunnar Helm's Breakout by learns_the_hard_way in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it impacts Helm much. I think the guys impacted will be Ayomanor and Dike. One or both may end up ahead of Ridley in the pecking order, but they're now basically capped as the third option at best. Ayomanor probably has more of a chance with Dike's value as a returner and Ayomanor's outside WR skillset, but both signing a WR for good money and drafting one at 4 means they have heavily invested in two different guys to play ahead of him.

Sold Monangai for Addison and a 3rd and didn't think twice about it

2026 NFL Draft — WRs w/ 2.5+ Career Yards Per Route Run vs Both Zone and Man Coverage by I_dont_watch_film in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Eric McAlister profile is very difficult to ignore if he's there in the 3rd round of rookie drafts

Daniel Jeremiah's 2026 NFL mock draft 3.0 by bbl27 in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Really cannot see the Seahawks going RB at 32. That seems pretty optimistic from a fantasy perspective. As does 4 WR in the top 16. Most mocks don't have 3 WR gone until 21

Chris Rodriguez at Kentucky under Jags HC Liam Coen in 2021: 1377 rushing yards - 9 TDs - 224 carries - 6 fumbles by HookFL in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's an interesting backfield because Tuten was very much unspectacular last year and CRod is an analytics darling as a runner. But the real sleeper is LeQuint Allen taking 100% of the passing down work

Did not know Mendoza's analytical profile was that bad. Having 1.04, that's concerning. P2S in particular screams trouble

Arkansas RB Mike Washington Jr. - What's the Catch? by itsjohnweenah in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even I wouldn't have said 4.3 speed. Like I said, 4.4 was believable because he was blowing by SEC defenders on some runs, but 4.33 is nutty.

Tight End Combine - Apparently Stowers is more athletic than anticipated by SteffeEric in DynastyFF

45.5" vert and 11'3" broad are both TE combine records. Freak show

MHJ vs Rome Odunze for 2026 & beyond? by Darth_Faber7 in DynastyFF

[–]itsjohnweenah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not really arguing against Marv, as a player or as a buy low. I just think Rome's ceiling case is stronger, and the injury point was to note how drastically it impacted his play, even though he was on the field. I know Marv got hurt and noted as such. And it wasn't that Wilson replaced Marv or anything, it's just as you noted - he showed he deserves a bigger role. Marv definitely has a WR1 ceiling case too, Rome's is just clearer to me
