Ep. 793 - Can Your Favorite NFL Stars be Elite Again in 2026?

The Dynasty Nerds podcast dives deep into dynasty fantasy football with a focus on bounce-back candidates for 2026. Hosts Garret Price and Andrew Mott break down big-name players who underperformed in 2025 but still carry early-round startup value as former first-round rookie picks. They assign a confidence meter (1-10) to each player's odds of returning to elite form, covering key positions like quarterback and wide receiver. The episode covers Lamar Jackson's dip in rushing production after injury, Brian Thomas Jr's messy offseason with competition from Travis Hunter and Jacoby Myers plus trade rumors, Cam Skattebo's gruesome ankle injury despite strong early play, Xavier Worthy's letdown in Kansas City amid questions about his role, Baker Mayfield's midseason fade from MVP chatter due to injuries and coordinator changes, and Saquon Barkley's step back in Philly with workload and age concerns.
