Adam, Dave, Jamey and Heath break down the latest fantasy football risers and fallers as we get closer to the 2026 NFL season, starting with the Josh Jacobs news (2:51) and what it means for MarShawn Lloyd’s outlook. The risers discussion includes Luther Burden (13:29), Alec Pierce (23:15), and the Packers receiving corps (25:00), as the guys examine the upside for Christian Watson, Matthew Golden and Jayden Reed with Jacobs off the field. Dave also explains why he can’t stop drafting Parker Washington (48:58), while the crew highlights late-round wide receiver targets, including DeZhaun Stribling (51:15). Then it’s time for the fallers, with debates surrounding Ashton Jeanty (54:15), Jayden Daniels (57:37) and Rashee Rice (1:02:50) as their draft values continue to be evaluated due to injury, offensive scheme, and target share. Finally, the crew wraps up the show with the latest news and notes from around the league to help you make smarter decisions before your 2026 fantasy football draft.Fantasy Football Today is available for free on the Audacy app as well as Apple Podcasts, Spotify and wherever else you listen to podcastsWatch FFT on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
