The Best & Worst Pick in Every Round of 2026 Fantasy Football (Round 6 is GROSS!)

ESPN's ADP is doing some genuinely strange things this year, and Kendall Valenzuela and Peter Overzet went through all sixteen rounds to find it.Every round gets the same treatment: one pick you should be running to the podium for, and one you should be letting somebody else make. It starts in the first with Christian McCaffrey and Jonathan Taylor going in wildly different directions, then Brock Bowers and Josh Allen in the second, Breece Hall and Josh Jacobs in the third. Round 4 brings Emeka Egbuka and Tyler Warren, Round 5 has Jaylen Waddle and Quinshon Judkins, and Round 6 pairs Luther Burden with a kicker taken far too early.The middle rounds are where ESPN's board really comes apart — Mike Evans and DK Metcalf, Christian Watson against a defense going way ahead of schedule, Justin Herbert and Travis Hunter, Josh Downs and Isaiah Likely. Then the late-round dart throws that actually matter: Kyle Monangai, Kenyon Sadiq, Stefon Diggs, Hunter Henry, KC Concepcion, Woody Marks, Jayden Higgins, Jerry Jeudy, Malik Willis, Fernando Mendoza, Chris Rodriguez and Tank Dell.Each round opens with the actual ESPN ADP board so you can see exactly where these players are going and what it costs you to wait. If you're drafting on ESPN this year, this is the round-by-round cheat sheet for what to exploit and who to fade.
