With training camps creeping closer, the Dynasty Nerds crew is already digging into the unsexy part of roster building: ultra cheap stashes who can turn into real lineup leverage fast. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price run through deep names that can be had for basically nothing right now, but could matter a lot once roles crystallize. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The episode kicks off with Jake Tonges, a near free tight end who flashed when George Kittle missed time and now has a clearer path after Kittle’s Achilles injury. At wide receiver, Washington’s open competition puts Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane under the microscope, while Tory Horton is framed as a best ball friendly bet in Seattle’s unsettled depth chart. The Raiders segment circles back to Jack Bech as a cheap post hype option, and the dart throws continue with George Holani and Malik Washington as opportunity based stashes. They close with the classic handcuff thesis, citing Brian Robinson Jr. and other backup backs as boring assets that can flip into league winning volume in one snap. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Chicago might be the most fantasy-friendly breakout factory of 2026, and Garret Price and Andrew Mott are planting their flags early. This episode runs through six breakout bets, from young ascending quarterbacks to a contender-only veteran RB swing, with clear reasons why these situations could spike in a big way. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Andrew’s favorite breakout is Rome Odunze, pointing to an early 2025 hot start before a stress fracture derailed the season. With DJ Moore gone, plus Luther Burden and Colston Loveland helping consolidate targets in a Ben Johnson offense, the ceiling is back on the table. Garret doubles down with Caleb Williams, calling for a second leap from QB6 into a year where top-three finishes become the regular outcome, especially if efficiency climbs with weapons like D'Andre Swift. Andrew swings on Cam Ward improving with better coaching and Carnell Tate in Tennessee. Garret calls Omarion Hampton a potential RB3 overall type outcome in the right run-heavy environment. The deep value TE bet is Chigoziem Okonkwo in Washington, and the contender-only hammer is David Montgomery, a cheap buy who could climb on red zone volume. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Welcome back into the Dynasty Nerds podcast as Garret Price and Andrew Mott complete the offseason circle—after buy targets, it’s time to talk sells. And they’re clear up front: “sell” doesn’t mean a player is bad. It’s about price, roster build, and whether you can pivot within a tier without sacrificing your title chances. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Andrew opens with Trevor Lawrence as a classic “tier-down” candidate. The market is pricing him like a top-10 dynasty QB off a scorching 2025 second half, but the guys argue the gap between Lawrence and steady producers like Purdy, Dak, Nix, or Goff isn’t big enough to justify the premium. The ideal move is staying in the same QB tier while adding a throw-in on top. Garret brings the heat with Trey McBride—not because he’s not elite, but because he might be at peak value. The argument: if you can flip McBride into Brock Bowers, you take the better long-term target environment. McBride’s situation carries more “yellow flags” (changing offense, more target competition, potential QB shifts, and a run-game emphasis) that could shave his weekly edge and turn a “$1” asset into an “$0.85” asset quickly.

Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price roll into their first post-draft episode with one mission: lock in a Superflex, TE-premium rookie consensus—and call out the traps before rookie fever wrecks your board. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The big takeaway is simple: this class is thin, and after the early tier, drafts turn into a “shake the bag and pick a name” free-for-all. The guys break down why Jeremiah Love still sits atop the board after going top-three NFL draft capital, while Carnell Tate and Fernando Mendoza form the key pivot point depending on team needs and how you value long-term insulation at QB. From there, it’s a knife fight between upside receivers like Makai Lemon, Jordyn Tyson, and KC Concepcion, plus the “flip him for a future first” crowd led by Jadarian Price. They also debate how much tape should outweigh situation with Omar Cooper Jr., and why the next cluster—Eli Stowers, Ty Simpson, Kenyon Sadiq, and Denzel Boston—is more about survivability and trade windows than certainty. 00:00:00 Start 00:08:26 Jeremiyah Love 00:10:01 Carnell Tate 00:13:31 Fernando Mendoza 00:21:11 Makai Lemon, Jordyn Tyson, KC Concepcion 00:25:33 Jadarian Price 00:32:02 Omar Cooper Jr. 00:37:38 FFPC 00:39:15 Eli Stowers, Ty Simpson, Kenyon Sadiq, Denzel Boston 00:45:45 Jonah Coleman, Ted Hurst, Antonio Williams, De'Zhaun Stribling, Germie Bernard, Chris Bell 00:53:11 Malachi Fields 00:53:59 The Rest of the Rankings Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to the Dynasty Nerds Fantasy Football Podcast as Rich Dotson, “Handsome Matt,” and “Gorgeous Garret” dig into Superflex startup ADP to find where the market is sharp—and where it’s completely losing the plot. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The crew breaks down a top-12 that includes Josh Allen at 1, Bijan Robinson at 2, and Drake Maye at 3—then gets spicy when Jeremiah Love shows up at 9 overall. The consensus: rookie fever is one thing, but paying first-round startup prices for a back without proven “can’t miss” insulation is a massive bet. They also call out the head-scratcher of Trey McBride being drafted ahead of Brock Bowers, especially given Bowers’ target competition and quarterback upgrade. As they move through rounds three and four, Christian McCaffrey becomes the “win now or bust” fork in the road. If you’re drafting CMC there, you’re consciously trading away multi-year value for a title shot. In round four, Chase Brown is the name that gets labeled as the biggest “doesn’t belong” pick—productive, sure, but viewed as a short-term RB profile being priced like a foundational piece. Meanwhile, the group keeps circling value in younger quarterbacks and receivers who can hold or gain value as the 2027 rookie class pushes older assets down the board.

Welcome back to the Dynasty Nerds podcast as Garret Price and Andrew Mott jump into a superflex, tight end premium startup mock with one goal: show you how wildly different team builds can look when you draft with a plan. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Andrew leans into a youth movement, prioritizing long term value insulation at quarterback and wide receiver. That approach highlights why grabbing cornerstone QBs like Drake Maye early can set a roster up for years, even if the running back room looks thin at first. The idea is simple: stack flexible assets, then trade into production when the window opens. Garret takes a win now approach, emphasizing immediate points with premium positions and weekly ceilings, including Trey McBride and Jalen Hurts. The conversation also touches on how the market is reacting to running back scarcity, pushing backs up boards even in superflex formats. If you are drafting soon, this mock gives a clear snapshot of current ADP trends and the leverage points to attack. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Garret and Andrew break down the biggest “survivors” from the 2026 NFL Draft, highlighting veterans whose roles stayed clean when many managers expected their teams to add real competition. If your league is still overvaluing rookie picks, this is the window to trade for proven production before summer pricing kicks in. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The list starts with Chase Brown, who dodged the exact type of Day 2 back that could have threatened a true feature workload. Then the focus shifts to Cam Skattebo, another back who avoided the nightmare scenario, keeping a clear path to touches in a room that already fits what he does best. At receiver, Josh Downs benefits from a depth chart that stayed quiet in the draft, setting up a target-friendly season in the middle of the field. The Chiefs not adding meaningful wide receiver competition keeps Rashee Rice positioned as a volume-driven centerpiece when healthy, even if the offseason noise never stops. Jacksonville passing on RB additions creates a cleaner runway for Bhayshul Tuten, while Tampa’s draft keeps Rachaad White alive as a practical contender play in PPR formats. The big sneaky call is Oronde Gadsden, whose situation stayed open enough to flirt with top tier tight end outcomes if the target tree cooperates. The episode closes with David Montgomery as a pure win-now buy, a short-window volume bet that can outscore the mid-second rookie tier when you are chasing a title. Start Using the ⁠Film Room ⁠Today!

NFL Draft week means one last chance to draft off conviction, not landing spot panic. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price jump into Rounds 2 and 3 of their Superflex, tight end premium tape mock, where the board turns into pure opportunity hunting. This is the range where dynasty leagues are won by stacking swings and letting the NFL Draft break ties, not rewrite your rankings. 00:00 Start 01:55 2.01 05:25 2.02 07:11 2.03 09:49 2.04 11:09 2.05 14:25 2.06 16:15 2.07 17:09 2.08 19:56 2.09 25:21 2.11 28:15 2.12 30:06 FFPC 31:43 3.01 33:54 3.02 35:40 3.03 37:20 3.04 39:01 3.05 41:04 3.06 42:37 3.07 44:34 3.08 46:00 3.09 47:14 3.10 50:28 3.11 52:03 3.12 Learn more about your ad choices.

NFL Draft week hits different, and Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price come in with a reminder dynasty players need every year: the pre draft mock often ends up more accurate than the post draft board, because tape tells you who the player is. This superflex tight end premium rookie mock is all about balancing long term value with the trap of overreacting to landing spots, especially in a class they describe as deep in playable names but light on true superstars. 00:00:00 Start 00:07:08 1.01 00:09:18 1.02 00:15:42 1.03 00:20:51 1.04 00:24:33 1.05 00:29:43 1.06 00:33:08 1.07 00:37:59 FFPC 00:39:58 1.08 00:44:57 1.09 00:47:57 1.10 00:49:30 1.11 00:56:29 1.12 Start Using the Film Room Today!

Garret Price and Andrew Mott close the pre-draft runway by locking in their top fives at every fantasy position—and the real takeaway isn’t just the names, it’s the process. They argue that if a player is moving more than a few spots post-draft, it’s usually a mistake. Big ADP risers are more likely to bust, and the NFL Draft should be used to break ties and clarify Day 3, not rewrite your board. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube They open by calling out the most common dynasty leak this time of year: letting the NFL Draft swing opinions too far. The exception is when the league is drastically lower than expected on a player, which should trigger a reevaluation, not an automatic fade. The goal is conviction, not consensus. At quarterback, it’s a Superflex-first conversation, led by Fernando Mendoza as the clear QB1, with the tier breaks after that shaping how aggressively you should chase the rest of the class. At running back, Jeremiyah Love is the clear RB1, while the RB2 tier is a tight cluster where landing spot and draft capital will decide the order between Mike Washington Jr., Jonah Coleman, and Jadarian Price, with Emmett Johnson getting real love as the RB5 swing. Wide receiver is where the variance shows up. Andrew’s WR group is led by Jordyn Tyson, with Carnell Tate and Makai Lemon close behind, then KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston in the mix. Garret’s list is more aggressive on upside and has Omar Cooper inside the top tier, while still acknowledging Boston as the “safer” archetype compared to the boom bust profiles behind him. At tight end, they largely agree on the names at the top—Eli Stowers and Kenyon Sadiq headline the class—but disagree on how to order the mid-tier, with the conversation shaped by how much you’re willing to bet on traits versus profile risk.

Dynasty Nerds goes full draft-night game mode with an “over/under” episode that’s basically built for comments: pick a line, pick higher or lower, and lock in your guesses before Thursday. With just Garret and Andrew, the entire show is about translating draft range into dynasty value swings, especially in a class where teams reportedly don’t have much consensus. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube They start at the very top with Carnell Tate and treat the “6.5” line like a real indicator of league-wide WR demand, with Cleveland and Tennessee feeling like the most logical fits. Then the fun one hits: Jeremiyah Love at 6.5. Love “should” go that early, but the team fit is messy enough that they explore the trade-up scenarios, landing on the idea that Washington at 7 is a real outcome if the board breaks right. The episode then shifts into first-round macro questions like “Do we get a second QB in Round 1?” with Ty Simpson getting the nod as the likely name to sneak in. Jordan Tyson gets a top-11 conversation that hinges on his pro day and medical confidence. Then comes the tight end curveball: Eli Stowers at 32.5. They love the fantasy “WR at TE” angle, but they’re realistic about the NFL lens. If a player can’t block, it’s hard to justify top-20 capital, so Stowers is framed as a strong early Day 2 bet rather than a locked-in first rounder. The RB2 line turns into a debate about whether we get a true Round 2 back or if the class gets pushed into Round 3. Chris Brazzell becomes the classic “speed and length gets drafted” argument, with disagreement on whether he’s inside the top 50. They close with broader market calls, like over/under 5.5 WRs in Round 1, plus smaller lines like Emmett Johnson being more likely Day 3, and Taylen Green as a traits-based QB dart who still probably lands outside the first four rounds.

The Dynasty Nerds wrap up their 2026 rookie breakdown series by digging into the tight end class—and the big theme is simple: tight end upside exists, but fantasy relevance usually comes down to target share and deployment. If a rookie tight end isn’t becoming a top-two option in the offense (or at least a designed focal point), good luck turning traits into weekly lineups.

Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price wrap the 2026 scouting series with a tight end episode that feels more important than usual. Even in a weaker rookie class, tight end remains the position where landing spot and opportunity can flip value fast, especially as NFL offenses lean harder into 12 personnel and “move” tight ends who are really big receivers. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Kenyon Sadiq headlines as the freakiest tester, but the crew digs into why the production and usage felt more manufactured than dominant. The debate is simple. Do you chase the rare athletic profile and bet on development, or do you prefer a tight end who already wins routes and targets more naturally? Michael Trigg flashes rare movement and length, but the episode doesn’t hide the volatility, including consistency and off field trust questions. Justin Joly earns praise as a savvy, sticky hands receiver with a clear path to being fantasy relevant in the right system. Sam Roush is framed as the size and blocking archetype who may be more valuable to NFL teams than dynasty managers. Josh Cuevas reads more like an H back or fullback projection. Oscar Delp is the traits over production bet, with a pro day profile that will make teams think they can unlock more than Georgia showed. 00:00:00 Start 00:03:27 Kenyon Sadiq 00:17:08 Michael Trigg 00:27:59 Justin Joly 00:38:47 Sam Roush 00:47:48 Josh Cuevas 00:51:51 Oscar Delp Learn more about your ad choices.

Draft month means sleeper season, and Jagger May and Andrew Mott run through ten pre-draft names they’re planting flags on before Round 1. This list mixes fantasy-relevant late shots with a few defensive “bookmark it now” players, with the central theme being simple: traits, role pathways, and draft capital matter more than hype this time of year. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube The guys lead with Skyler Bell as a “real” sleeper with legit production and analytics signals, then pivot to tight end value with Eli Raridon, a versatile option who can block and stay on the field. At RB, Adam Randall is pitched as a converted wideout with third-down receiving upside, while Kevin Coleman Jr. and Antonio Williams are framed as slot-plus weapons with enough athletic traits to earn a role fast if the landing spot cooperates. On defense, Zion Young and Gabe Jacas get shouted out as edge names who could outplay their draft buzz, with the reminder that a “weak fantasy class” can still be loaded overall and push offensive sleepers down the board. The episode closes with tight end swings like Justin Joly and Marlin Klein as cheap, traits-based stashes that could pay off if an NFL staff unlocks them. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Peter Schrager’s latest mock draft has the Draft Nerds crew in full debate mode, with Garret Price, Andrew Mott, and Jagger May reacting pick by pick to the intel, the fits, and the reaches. The top of the board feels mostly chalk, but the conversation heats up fast once team building and positional value collide, especially around running backs and early wide receivers. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube The crew agrees Fernando Mendoza at 1 is a lock, then praises David Bailey as a Jets slam dunk at 2. Things get spicy with Jeremiah Love projected at 4, where they love the talent but question the Titans taking a premium RB with Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears already in place, arguing Carnell Tate might make more sense. The fantasy fireworks come with Jordan Tyson to Kansas City as the first WR off the board, a fit that could reshape roles around Rashee Rice, Travis Kelce, and Xavier Worthy. They also call out polarizing spots like Kenyon Sadiq to Baltimore, and hammer the idea that a first round RB not named Jeremiah Love is a reach, especially with Jadarian Price sneaking into Round 1.

The Dynasty Nerds wrap their 2026 rookie wide receiver series with a fast, tape-driven debate on where the real value pockets live in rookie drafts. The crew highlights why this class may feel “flat” at first glance, but still offers multiple paths to fantasy upside if you’re willing to swing on traits, draft capital, and role. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube On first mention, Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price rave about KC Concepcion as one of the most sudden separators in the class, with a top-tier release package and legitimate outside size. The only real holdup is the drop rate, but the show leans toward that being correctable rather than fatal. The discussion pivots to Chris Brazzell as a classic size speed bet with real ball tracking and spike-week potential, even if effort and off-field notes create volatility. Bryce Lance brings elite testing and a Christian Watson-style profile, but age and competition level shrink the dynasty runway. Deion Burks flashes rare explosiveness yet never fully converts tools into production. C.J. Daniels is framed as a functional possession option, while Harrison Wallace III lands as a low-upside depth dart. Start Using the Film Room Today!

The Dynasty Nerds are back with a quick hitter dynasty game: rookies vs. vets. Garret Price sits in the hot seat while Andrew Mott fires off player-for-player decisions based on current startup ADP and consensus rankings, with the NFL Draft looming as the ultimate tiebreaker. The headliners start at RB, where Garret leans Jeremiah Love over Ashton Jeanty thanks to receiving upside and projected volume, then pivots to the safe side at QB with Jordan Love over Fernando Mendoza. At WR, Garret prefers the ceiling of Carnell Tate over Ladd McConkey, but sticks with the established profile of Marvin Harrison Jr. over Makai Lemon. At TE, Kyle Pitts gets the nod over Kenyon Sadiq, and the episode closes with a classic dynasty takeaway: sometimes the pick itself is the asset. Garret takes KC Concepcion over DJ Moore, framing 1.07 as a flexible “wait for the draft” decision, not a locked-in player. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Jagger May and Andrew Mott are already looking past 2026 and breaking down a quarterback class that could rival some of the best in recent memory. With at least four first-round-caliber passers and an S-tier that could produce the next franchise QB, the 2027 class deserves your attention right now. Dante Moore sits at number one with high-upside tools and the most to gain or lose in 2027. He now faces stiff competition from transfer portal newcomer Dylan Raiola at Oregon, making his season a must-watch storyline. Julian Sayin at Ohio State is drawing massive buzz as a potential QB1, while Arch Manning showed real improvement late in the season at Texas. Jayden Maiava at USC, DJ Lagway (now at Baylor), and LaNorris Sellers round out a tier of big-armed, high-ceiling prospects still learning the game. Josh Hoover transferring to Indiana may be the sleeper of the class, and John Mateer at Oklahoma brings electric athleticism if he can rein in the decision making. Brendan Sorsby heads to Texas Tech as a name to watch. The dynasty advice is simple: stockpile 2027 picks now before the market catches up.

The Dynasty Nerds Show is back with Episode 3 of the 2026 wide receiver tape breakdown. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price work through six more receivers, and this group brings a mix of high-end talent, intriguing sleepers, and a couple of names the crew is ready to move past entirely. Makai Lemon opens the show and earns some of the highest praise of the entire series. Garret scores him at 77.8 and Matt at 79.0, putting him right alongside Carnell Tate as the clear top two receivers in the class. The crew calls him a dog in every sense of the word, a Puka Nacua comp who plays with relentless toughness, attacks the catch point, blocks downfield, and refuses to lose. His only concern coming out of the combine was some chatter around his interviews and attitude, but nothing in the tape supported that. The crew sees him as a PPR machine with WR1 upside depending on landing spot. Elijah Sarratt is the toughest evaluation of the episode. He was technically sound at Indiana with 15 touchdowns, but the crew noticed he looked a half step slow at the combine compared to everyone else running identical routes. His tape showed very limited separation, a heavy reliance on back shoulder throws with Fernando Mendoza, and a contested catch conversion rate that raised flags. The crew has him in the WR14 range and needs to see athleticism numbers before feeling comfortable. Antonio Williams draws a Jayden Reed comp and slots into that same mid-tier cluster as a gadget chess piece who lives in the slot, turns every catch into a punt return situation, and adds value with no wasted motion in his routes. The injury history is the one real concern. Ted Hurst out of Georgia State is the breakout name of the episode. Six foot four, a 4.42 at the combine, and a Josh Gordon comp from Matt that the whole crew got behind. His ball tracking grade was his highest mark, his speed glides effortlessly on tape, and his Senior Bowl week was one of the best of any receiver in this class. The crew projects him as a day two pick with a true X receiver ceiling. Kevin Coleman and Jordan Hudson close the show and both land off most boards. Coleman disappears against top competition and Hudson offers a little more with the ball in his hands but neither generates dynasty interest from the crew.

The Dynasty Nerds Show is back with Episode 2 of the 2026 wide receiver tape breakdown. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price work through six receivers from their personal tape grades, and the early takeaway is that this class is notably cleaner than the running back group. There are no players the crew wants completely off their boards, which makes the tier separation between them all the more important heading into draft season. Carnell Tate opens the show and earns unanimous WR1 status. Garret's tape score of 79.18 puts him in the same all-time company as Ja'Marr Chase, CeeDee Lamb, and Malik Nabers. His 86% contested catch rate ranked third in the entire country, he had zero drops on the season, and the passer rating when targeting him was 151.8, best nationally. The crew calls him the safest player in the 2026 draft class and a multi-contract dynasty asset who wins in every area of the field. Germie Barnard draws a Robert Woods comp from the crew: reliable, smart, and landing-spot dependent for his fantasy ceiling. Malachi Fields is the most debated name on the show. His ball skills, catch radius, and physicality grade at an elite level, but only 36 catches at Notre Dame left too many questions about route tree and burst. Garret has him with a first-round grade. Zachariah Branch is viewed as a special teams ace and gadget piece with limited dynasty value, while Eric Rivers falls even further for the group due to poor hands and unrefined routes despite running a 4.35. The episode closes with a strong endorsement of small-school sleeper Tyren Montgomery, a former walk-on basketball player at LSU turned polished route runner out of John Carroll who turned heads at the Senior Bowl. The crew plans to draft him in rounds 4 to 5 as a high-upside stash with real development upside.

Pro days are done, combine numbers are locked in, and the 2026 wide receiver class just got a full re-sort. Jagger May and Andrew Mott run through their updated top 20 WR tiers, debate where the consensus is getting it wrong, and make the case that this receiver class — despite lacking true superstar-level prospects — goes deeper than most people are giving it credit for.

The 2026 wide receiver class is officially open for business on the Dynasty Nerds podcast. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price kick off their multi-episode WR breakdown series with six prospects, headlined by one of the most debated players in the class and a few names that spark genuine disagreement on the film room tape. Jordyn Tyson out of Arizona State is the centerpiece of this episode and for good reason — some analysts have him as the number one receiver in the class, others as number three. The crew lands somewhere in between. Tyson earns nerd scores of 77.2 (Rich) and 76.5 (Garret), putting him in the same historical range as Jaylen Waddle and Drake London, with a few cautionary names like Jalen Reagor mixed in. The praise is real: he's a smooth, savvy route runner who gets open against zone at will, works every alignment, and has a 67% contested catch win rate by one metric. The concern is equally real: against press man coverage — specifically the Utah tape — he struggles to create separation, offers almost nothing after the catch, and carries an extensive injury history including a 2022 ACL/MCL, a 2024 broken collarbone, and multiple hamstring injuries in 2025 that prevented him from finishing a season for the third straight year. The consensus projection is WR 1.4 to 1.5 territory in SuperFlex rookie drafts, with Carnell Tate and Makai Lemon grading in a tier above him. His floor comp is Jerry Jeudy; his ceiling is Amari Cooper or Garrett Wilson in the right situation. Ja'Kobi Lane from USC is the kind of player who helps an NFL team more than he helps your dynasty roster — at least in the short term. At 6-4 with a 40-inch vertical, massive catch radius, and vice-grip hands that give him a clear advantage in contested situations, the tape is legitimately intriguing. Garret scores him a 75.8, Matt comes in at 73.4, and the gap reflects a genuine split on how much to weigh his route-running limitations. He's a build-up speed guy, not a burst guy, and physical corners can knock him around at the line. He played through a lower-body injury in 2025 that may explain a down statistical year, and the crew encourages revisiting his 2024 tape before locking in a final grade. Dream landing spots: the Raiders alongside Fernando Mendoza, or New England with Drake Maye. Ceiling: Tee Higgins. Floor: a big possession receiver who helps teams more than dynasty managers.

Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price close out the class with six running backs who, outside of the top tier, struggle to inspire confidence in any dynasty format. Jadarian Price out of Notre Dame may carry the "consensus RB2" label in many dynasty circles, but all three hosts come away largely underwhelmed. Price earns nerd scores in the low-to-mid 73s — respectable for this class, but not the kind of tape that inspires first-round dynasty capital. His vision, patience, and contact balance are legitimate strengths, but his near-total absence from the passing game (just 15 career receptions) is a glaring red flag in PPR formats. The hosts land on Price as a prototypical 1.5-to-2-year window guy — the kind of back an NFL team leans on in a pinch before eventually upgrading. Solid, not special. Nick Singleton came into Penn State with first-round buzz and a reputation as the premier running back in his recruiting class. What the Dynasty Nerds film room found was something far less exciting. Singleton scores a 70.8 (Rich) and 69.8 (Garret) — RB5 by default in a shallow class. He has the size, speed, and pass-catching ability to intrigue NFL teams, but his vision is described as "atrocious," his hips are tight, and he offers zero wiggle in the open field. He's a straight-line athlete playing running back rather than a polished NFL prospect. The crew agrees he's a late Day 3 pick — a high-ceiling project that dynasty managers should treat as a third-round flier at best. Le'Von Moss from Texas A&M had just seven games last season before tearing his MCL and ACL, and the limited film makes a full evaluation nearly impossible. When healthy, the crew acknowledges real tools — initial burst, angry running style, low pad level, and surprisingly better lateral movement than Singleton. But with only 121 career carries at his peak and no involvement in the passing game (two career receptions in 2025), Moss falls into the fourth tier of this class. Garret scores him a 68.7. The health question mark simply overshadows everything else. Jam Miller from Alabama carries the stigma of Crimson Tide running backs without the résumé to back it up. His 4.42 40-yard dash was legitimately surprising, and his pass protection grades are a relative bright spot, but that's about it. Poor vision, missed cutback lanes, and a concerning inability to break tackles leave the hosts stumped on how he gets drafted. Rich scores him a 65.6; Garret gives him a 63.7. The consensus: great athlete in the real world, not a dynasty asset in this one. Roman Hemby out of Indiana is everything you expect from a backup running back — nothing more, nothing less. He reads blocks well, almost never fumbles (two career fumbles on 710 carries), catches the ball adequately, and runs with purpose. But he lacks burst, top-end speed, and any ability to make defenders miss after contact. Garret scores him a 67.5. Rich identifies him as the best run blocker in this entire class. He'll stay on rosters because coaches will like him — but if he's ever starting, his team is already making calls. A true baked potato. No butter. The wild card of the episode is Rahsul Faison from South Carolina — a 26-year-old prospect who started college football in 2019, before COVID, and somehow scores a 70.5 on Rich's nerd scale (sixth in the class on tape alone). The age kills his dynasty outlook, but the tape is surprisingly watchable: genuine elusiveness, strong instincts, natural hands, and a high forced-missed-tackle rate per PFF. The hosts agree he's more of a priority free agent or late-round flier than a dynasty stash — but in a class this thin, even a 26-year-old with good tape stands out. His taxi squad eligibility running out before he'd realistically age off your roster is half the selling point. The 2026 running back class outside of Jeremiyah Love is genuinely one of the weakest in recent memory. Nerd scores drop from the 80s (Love) to the low 70s (Mike Washington, Jonah Coleman, Jadarian Price) and then fall below 70 for everyone else. The hosts' advice: be patient, look for value in receivers and tight ends with your premium picks, and only reach for these backs if the landing spot justifies the risk.

With the NFL Draft just a month away, Garret Price and Andrew Mott are back on the Dynasty Nerds Podcast to break down the players carrying the most risk heading into draft season. Nobody on this list is dead in the water, but all of them could see their dynasty value shift dramatically depending on what happens over the next few weeks. Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason headline the risky running back conversation, with Minnesota's unsettled front office and draft capital pointing toward potential reinforcements in the backfield. Rookie names like Jadarian Price, Kayron Allen, and Emmett Johnson could all find their way to Minnesota and steal touches. In Kansas City, Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy are both vulnerable with the Chiefs holding a top-ten pick in both the first and second round and a clear need for a true pass-catching weapon alongside Patrick Mahomes. Over in Arizona, Tyler Allgeier enters a crowded backfield with an uncertain quarterback situation and the very real possibility the Cardinals add a running back in the draft, making him a prime sell candidate at current value. Geno Smith heads back to the Jets as nothing more than a bridge quarterback, with Ty Simpson or another young signal-caller likely to take over before the season is out. Ricky Pearsall in San Francisco gets a longer leash with Mike Evans and Christian Kirk added around him, but picks 27 and 58 put the 49ers squarely in range for receivers like Omar Cooper or KC Concepcion who would immediately threaten his long-term role. Finally, Malik Nabers carries the most risk of the bunch, with an injury recovery running behind schedule, a new receiver potentially coming at pick five, and an ADP of ten overall that prices in a best-case scenario the offseason has not supported.

The Draft Nerds are back with a four-round rookie-only mock draft in a tight end premium, PPR super flex format. Jagger May and Andrew Mott break down every pick, debate positional value, and reveal exactly how they're approaching one of the more wide-open rookie classes in recent memory. Jeremiyah Love goes first overall without hesitation, and from there the board gets interesting fast. Andrew grabs Fernando Mendoza at 1.03, leaning into super flex format value over the wide receiver run happening around him. Jagger follows with KC Concepcion while both hosts agree that Jonah Coleman, Jadarian Price, and most running backs not named Jeremiyah Love should wait. The consensus is clear: this is a pass catcher draft, and wide receivers and tight ends carry more reliable value than nearly any running back in the class. Andrew doubles down on positional strategy by snagging Ty Simpson at 2.03, building a quarterback asset he can either start or flip for future capital. Start Using the Film Room Today!

The Dynasty Nerds College Show is back, and Garret Price, Jagger May, and Andrew Mott are breaking down their composite top ten running backs in this year's NFL Draft class. Spoiler alert: there's one unanimous number one, a clear top tier, and then a whole lot of questions. Jeremiyah Love is the unanimous RB1 in this class and it isn't close. The crew compares him to Bijan Robinson as one of the best receiving backs any of them have scouted. Behind him, Mike Washington Jr., Jadarian Price, and Jonah Coleman form a clear second tier, though the hosts admit Washington carries the highest ceiling while Price offers the safest floor. Coleman's refusal to test at the combine left Garret scratching his head, dropping him from RB2 to RB4 on his personal board. From RB5 on, this class is defined by uncertainty. Emmett Johnson boasts elite underlying metrics including a 39% Dominator Rating, the highest of any back discussed, but his combine testing raises red flags. Nick Singleton has the tools but not the technique. Kayron Allen, Le'Veon Moss, Demond Claiborne, and Jadyn Ott each carry their own unique set of questions, making this a draft class where landing spot and opportunity could matter more than prospect profile.

Welcome back into the Dynasty Nerds Podcast, where Garret Price is joined by Jagger May for a fast paced Superflex tight end premium startup mock with a third round reversal, and rookie picks included. The twist is simple. With only 30 seconds per selection, the guys are forced to make decisions in real time, react to ADP surprises, and explain how to stay flexible instead of drafting by a rigid script. The biggest takeaway is the “play jazz” approach. Take what the board gives you, collect value, and do not force positions early. The room flies through elite anchors like Bijan Robinson and Josh Allen, then shifts into a debate over whether it is smarter to chase early quarterback security or lock in high end wide receiver scoring like CeeDee Lamb and Garrett Wilson. As the draft gets deeper, the focus turns to win now builds and exploiting ADP pockets, including veterans like Baker Mayfield, Michael Pittman Jr., Davante Adams, and Mark Andrews. It is a real look at how contenders are built in March, and why the best drafters stay patient, then strike when the board makes a mistake. 00:00 Start 01:38 Round 1 04:05 Round 2 07:00 Round 3 10:37 Round 4 13:00 Round 5 16:20 Round 6 19:47 Round 7 22:47 Round 8 25:44 FFPC 26:53 Round 9 29:20 Round 10 31:24 Round 11 34:17 Round 12 36:26 Round 13 38:53 Round 14 Start Using the Film Room Today!

We are now deep into offseason noise season, and Garret Price brings in Jagger May to sort out what actually matters. With Rich Dotson and Matt O’Hara out, the show turns into a real-time litmus test for free agency moves, especially the ripple effects that change dynasty values before rookie drafts. The headline is Jaylen Waddle landing in Denver, and the guys break down what it means for Courtland Sutton and the rest of the receiver room. They also question how much this really changes the outlook for Malik Willis in Miami, since the Dolphins now have extra picks and feel locked into adding pass catchers in the draft. From there, they pivot into teams most likely to add a real wide receiver, plus the “next tier” of teams where it is less certain. They also run through backfield winners and losers after moves involving Travis Etienne, Kenneth Walker, Tyler Allgeier, J.K. Dobbins, Kenneth Gainwell, and Rico Dowdle, with a blunt note on Trey Benson. The tight end segment closes it out with quick fantasy reactions to signings including Isaiah Likely, Daniel Bellinger, and Travis Kelce. 00:00 Start 01:11 Jaylen Waddle Fallout 08:11 Malik Willis Outlook 09:35 JJ McCarthy's Situation 12:59 Teams That Need WR Help 31:43 FFPC 32:53 RB Moves and Impacts 39:05 TE Signings and Fantasy Impact Start Using the Film Room Today!

We are now getting to the time of year when dynasty league mates wake up, and this live trade show is built for that exact window. Garret Price and Andrew Mott take questions from the chat and Nerd Herd, then work through real deals with a clear theme: understand your window before you chase “needs.” Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube The guys open with a tier-based debate between Breece Hall and Kenneth Walker, and why a contender might lean one way while a long-term build leans the other.

The show hits bigger structure questions too, including whether 2027 picks are getting overpriced and when it makes sense to “zig” away from the market.

Jagger May is joined by Andrew Mott as they connect free agency fallout to draft needs, and it keeps coming back to one idea: do not force luxury picks when the roster still has clear holes. The conversation hits teams that missed on Max Crosby and pivoted, including the “consolation” angle around Rashan Gary, plus how bringing back Javonte Williams impacts what a team can justify early. There is also a clear skepticism about overvaluing stopgap receivers as long-term answers, especially when a team still needs a real running mate for Malik Nabers. The Jeremiyah Love debate shows up again, with pushback on trying to force a top-ten running back landing spot when several teams already have capable backs. Instead, the focus shifts to guards, corners, and roster construction. Washington’s needs are framed as “get offense,” while the tight end discussion ties Chigoziem Okonkwo to the Zach Ertz style role, and the Eagles angle leans toward finding answers at safety and interior line. The episode also touches teams like the Rams preparing for life after Matthew Stafford, the Vikings’ upside if they ever landed Love, and the 49ers’ urgency to protect Brock Purdy if Trent Williams becomes a real question.

In this episode, Jagger May is joined by Andrew Mott to rip through AFC free agency moves and what they change heading into the draft. The big theme is simple. Teams that helped the quarterback and the trenches now have the freedom to draft the best players instead of forcing a reach. Buffalo grabbing D.J. Moore is the type of move that changes everything. Josh Allen finally gets real help, and now the Bills can focus on needs like left guard and slot corner instead of forcing a wideout early. Miami feels more like a reset year than a true push, with cap cleanup and physicality taking priority while the quarterback plan stays flexible. New England lands Romeo Doubs and still looks trench-first, using the signing to avoid desperation at receiver and keep options open for value later. The Jets keep leaning defense after major secondary moves, while the Ravens debate is all about priorities. Do they chase an outside receiver, or fix corner and the offensive line first? The episode closes with quick hits on the rest of the AFC, including Houston’s non-negotiable need to protect C.J. Stroud and the Chargers continuing to build through guard and edge so Justin Herbert is not running for survival. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Welcome to the Dynasty Nerds Fantasy Football Podcast, where we discuss dynasty strategy, rankings, and all things NFL. In this episode, Rich Dotson is joined by Garret Price and Matt O'Hara as they continue their rookie running back series and dig into a group of backs who could shape the middle rounds of rookie drafts. Jonah Coleman gets the spotlight early as the “safe” profile. They like the compact power, reliable vision, and real three down utility thanks to pass protection and receiving ability. The big question is the top end speed, and they note how much testing could impact draft capital and landing spot. Emmett Johnson brings production and real receiving volume, but the discussion centers on whether the athletic ceiling is high enough for more than a role player outcome. Jaydn Ott is a tougher eval, since the most relevant production is further back and the recent usage makes the projection messy. They get noticeably more excited when they hit Mike Washington Jr., who flashes size, speed, and legitimate pass catching upside. The concerns are pass protection and ball security, plus the idea that the “value window” may be gone now that more people are caught up to him. To close, Seth McGowan is framed as a unique late dart with NFL traits but plenty of red flags, while Kaelon Black is viewed as an older, average profile without a clear fantasy path.

Rich Dotson, Garret Price, and Matt O'Hara kick off Part 1 of their 2026 rookie running back breakdown with a blunt message. This class is thin, free agency already filled several backfields, and dynasty managers need to be careful chasing names just because the position looks desperate. Jeremiyah Love sits alone at the top of this group, and the discussion centers on why the fantasy ceiling is built through the passing game. They highlight the movement skills, open-field timing, and route ability that could translate into real PPR volume, while still acknowledging the minor flaws that keep the profile from being “perfect.” Once Love is off the board, the episode shifts into dart throw territory. Kaytron Allen gets credit for vision and reliability, but the lack of juice and limited receiving upside caps the dynasty ceiling. Demond Claiborne brings speed and twitch, but the show debates whether drops and ball security could keep him from earning consistent NFL touches. Adam Randall is the ultimate “traits and projection” swing, with a path that might be more creative usage than true every-down work. They also run through J'Mari Taylor and Robert Henry Jr. as deeper bets where the flashes are there, but the margin for error is tiny in a class that already feels like a tough bet.

Garret and Andrew go live by accident and roll straight into a rapid-fire dynasty reaction show as NFL free agency reshapes the 2026 landscape. From quarterback contracts to running back bags to sneaky value swings at tight end, the biggest takeaway is simple: the market is moving fast, and the dynasty “buy window” on some players is already closing. They start with Malik Willis landing a three-year deal in Miami and explain why the rushing upside could create a short-term QB1 window, but also why this is now a “hold or sell” market, not a buy. At running back, Kenneth Walker in Kansas City gets framed as a splashy move with real upside, but enough role and durability questions to keep expectations in check. Travis Etienne gets the biggest bullish push as a volume bet in a friendly system, while JK Dobbins returning to Denver is treated as a loud signal that caps RJ Harvey optimism. They hit the messy middle fast: Kenny Gainwell to Tampa Bay changes the conversation around Bucky Irving, while Rico Dowdle in Pittsburgh draws real excitement because of the coaching fit and role clarity. At wide receiver, Alec Pierce gets labeled as a price-inflated asset worth exploring as a sell, and the Wan’Dale Robinson versus Rashid Shaheed debate comes down to weekly PPR value versus spike-week appeal. They close with tight ends, including a small bump for Cade Otton, and a meaningful tier jump for Isaiah Likely if the Giants keep the target tree thin. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Jagger May and Andrew Mott break down best NFL fits for the 2026 rookie quarterback class, starting with the easiest call on the board and then working through a tier of prospects where development path matters more than immediate upside. They land on a clear QB1 destination, debate the most polarizing “where should he go?” fit, and round out the show with Day 3-style swings that need patience, structure, and the right staff to have any chance of becoming more than backups. They kick off with Fernando Mendoza and make it simple. The Raiders are the best fit, and it is not close. They like the structure around him, the offensive environment, and how clean the transition feels from a roster-building standpoint. If there is one quarterback spot that feels locked in before draft night, this is the one. From there, the conversation shifts into “who can actually develop” territory. Garrett Nussmeier gets framed as a top-three quarterback in the class, with a preferred fit that allows him to sit and grow rather than getting forced onto the field too early. The show also spends time on the biggest fit debate of the episode with Ty Simpson, with Andrew pushing the Rams as the ideal landing spot for a year or two of development behind a veteran, while Jagger defends a more aggressive “teams will trade and take their guy” view of how the first round can unfold. They also place Carson Beck in the bridge-quarterback lane, and talk through why the right coaching environment could matter more than raw traits for Drew Allar, Cole Payton, Taylen Green, Cade Klubnik, and Diego Pavia, where the realistic goal is often “earn a roster spot and get time to develop” before anything else.

Garret Price, Jagger May, and Andrew Mott run a full one-round, 32-pick NFL mock draft built for chaos. This is not a fantasy mock. It is a true “every position counts” exercise where Combine buzz, roster needs, and team-building philosophy collide fast. It starts the way most people expect, with the Raiders taking Fernando Mendoza at 1.01. From there, the draft leans heavily into premium value: edge, secondary, and trench help. The early run features the Jets grabbing Arvell Reese, the Cardinals building up front with Spencer Fano, and the Titans selecting David Bailey as a foundational defensive add. By the time the Giants land Sonny Styles, the board is already setting up a key theme for the rest of the mock: teams that are not truly ready to win still have to decide whether to chase a “finishing piece” or keep stacking long-term pillars. A major pivot point comes with the Commanders selecting Jeremiyah Love, which sparks the conversation about how early a team should take a running back. Later, the Chiefs land Carnell Tate, and the back half of the round becomes about fit and roster construction more than pure hype, including Mansoor Delane to the Dolphins, Caleb Downs to the Cowboys, and Jordyn Tyson to the Rams. The late first round continues to load up on immediate contributors, with Makai Lemon, Zion Young, and Ty Simpson all coming off the board, before the mock closes with defenders and trench picks that could quietly matter a lot if the landing spots hit.

Rich, Matt, and Garret return for Part Two of their 2026 rookie quarterback reviews, and the theme is pretty blunt: this group has far more projection risk than certainty. They still break down the paths to relevance, but most of the discussion comes back to what NFL draft capital will say about these evaluations. They open with Ty Simpson, and the argument is all about risk tolerance. He does a lot of things “fine,” with a quick release and solid short-to-intermediate accuracy, but the limited starts and shaky deep ball outcomes keep him from feeling like a safe Round 1 bet. The overall takeaway is that he is much easier to like if he lands as a Round 2 investment instead of being treated like a franchise cornerstone. Haynes King is the cleanest example of “testing and rushing production are not enough.” The athleticism and rushing numbers create obvious fantasy temptation, but the passing profile is too inconsistent for them to buy him as a real NFL quarterback. The more realistic path they keep circling is a role player or chess-piece type usage rather than a full-time starter you build around. With Carson Beck, the discussion centers on what happens when a quarterback does not have rushing outs. He can operate an offense when things are clean and structured, but heavy feet, pressure issues, and inconsistent ball placement limit the fantasy ceiling. They frame him more as a bridge outcome than a long-term fantasy starter. They are very low on Sawyer Robertson. The size and arm are there, but the tape reaction is overwhelmingly negative, especially on accuracy and throws outside the numbers. This is the clearest “do not draft” profile of the episode. Cade Klubnik lands in the uncomfortable middle. He has enough athletic ability and quick-game traits to survive, but they question whether the pressure response and inconsistency can ever be cleaned up enough to matter in the NFL. The most likely outcome they describe is a borderline starter or backup track, with only a narrow path to something more. They close with Cole Payton, who is difficult to pin down because the mechanics look messy but the production and athleticism still pop. The conversation frames him as a developmental bet you only take if an NFL team commits real coaching time to him. Compared to some other pure tools bets, they see more potential for him to be molded, but it still depends heavily on draft capital and situation. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Rich, Matt, and Garret kick off their 2026 rookie prospect reviews with the position that breaks the most hearts every year: quarterbacks. The group emphasizes how much draft capital and landing spot shape outcomes, but also why weak classes can create value pockets in Superflex, especially if a QB can buy fantasy points with rushing. They start at the top with Fernando Mendoza, presenting him as the cleanest profile in the class and the safest Superflex bet. The discussion centers on accuracy, ball placement, decision-making, and leadership, with a debate on ceiling. One view sees him living as a reliable QB1 or high-end QB2 type. The other argues he can climb higher if the team build around him hits and the offense keeps evolving. Next up is Garrett Nussmeier, framed as a tricky evaluation because the 2025 tape looks heavily impacted by injury, while the 2024 tape shows a much more live arm and a more confident, pro-style passer. The group keeps coming back to one key point: draft capital will tell the story. If he lands in the right range, he becomes a real swing worth taking in Superflex rookie drafts. They move into Drew Allar as the “looks the part” quarterback that coaches will want to develop. The upside is obvious in the frame and arm talent, but the concerns show up when the pocket collapses and the processing speeds up. The consensus is that he needs time, structure, and the right coaching situation to see if the tools translate. They then cover Diego Pavia, giving credit for competitiveness and production, but making it clear the size limitation creates a massive barrier to draft capital and long-term opportunity. For fantasy purposes, they frame it as the kind of player where any real playing-time window would likely be the sell window. They also hit Taylen Green as the ultimate “tools vs quarterbacking” prospect. The athletic profile is wild and the rushing upside creates fantasy intrigue, but the concerns are about processing, mechanics, and whether he can consistently function as an NFL passer. The takeaway is that he is a pure swing pick, not a stable bet. They close with Luke Altmyer, who gets credit for playing on time, protecting the ball, and being coach-friendly, but is framed as a capped-ceiling profile for fantasy. Even if he sticks in the NFL as a backup type, the upside is limited compared to the quarterbacks who can generate fantasy points with rushing. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Garret Price and Andrew Mott shift from Combine takeaways into the real domino period: NFL free agency. The focus is how quickly dynasty value can swing based on tags, cap space, and surprise landing spots. The quarterback section starts with Daniel Jones as the cleanest call to return. From there, they frame Kirk Cousins as more of a bridge or depth option than a true long-term starter, with potential fits depending on how a team wants to handle the next rookie class. The most discussed “swing” outcome is Malik Willis. They see logical scenarios where he lands in a spot that gives him a chance to start sooner rather than later, but they also push back on the idea that he becomes a franchise saver. The upside is real for fantasy. The long-term NFL outlook is still more uncertain. At running back, they spend time on the tension around Breece Hall, with the tag scenario creating downside risk for both fantasy managers and the player’s perceived freedom. Kenneth Walker is treated as more likely to stay put, but with enough uncertainty that it is worth tracking closely through the deadline. From there, the conversation turns to possible landing spots and role fits. Travis Etienne is one of the biggest pieces on the board if he changes teams. Rachaad White gets framed as a committee and depth type of option rather than a clear starter. Rico Dowdle, Tyler Allgeier, and JK Dobbins round out the “next tier” of backs who could become important depending on how a backfield is built and how much money a team is willing to spend. On the wide receiver side, they start with Alec Pierce as a clean field-stretcher fit for multiple teams. Mike Evans is the headliner name if the longtime situation finally changes, with a clear expectation that any move would be tied to chasing a title. They also run through veteran and role-based fits, including Wan’Dale Robinson, Romeo Doubs, Jauan Jennings, and Christian Kirk, with the key point being that teams with cap space and obvious needs can reshape the entire room quickly. They close the receiver discussion with Deebo Samuel and Rashid Shaheed, focusing on how either player could change an offense’s geometry depending on usage and price. At tight end, they highlight David Njoku as the kind of addition that can immediately upgrade an offense that needs a true middle-of-the-field presence. Isaiah Likely is treated as a talented option whose market may not be as hot as fantasy managers expect. Cade Otton is discussed as a solid, reliable tight end piece who can fit multiple teams without needing to be the entire passing game.

Jagger May and Andrew Mott are back with a post-Combine check-in on who helped themselves and who created new concerns. Their main point is consistent throughout the episode: testing is not the whole evaluation, but bad numbers and bad interview moments can matter a lot more than a great 40. At running back, the conversation keeps coming back to how thin the class feels behind Jeremiyah Love. Mike Washington Jr. is the testing standout they spend the most time on, while Emmett Johnson is the most disappointing result, turning “interesting traits” into a much tougher projection based on how the numbers landed. At quarterback, they treat Ty Simpson and Garrett Nussmeier as winners mostly because they did what they needed to do on the field and in interviews. On the other side, Diego Pavia is the clear cautionary tale of how quickly interviews can tank confidence. At wide receiver, the biggest storyline is Makai Lemon, where the discussion is less about tape and more about the Combine week optics. They also note that some players did not test, which naturally creates skepticism until pro days. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Garret Price and Andrew Mott go full “Frankenstein mode” for Combine week, building the ultimate 2026 wide receiver by assigning one prospect to each key trait. The only rule is you can only use each player once, which forces some gamesmanship as they decide where each name has the most value. They start with Malachi Fields as the easy winner for size, the receiver who “looks like WR1 getting off the bus.” For pure long speed, both land on Brenen Thompson, the track-speed bet who could be among the fastest in the class. For yards after catch, they give the nod to Omar Cooper, emphasizing open-field playmaking and how that trait translates across offensive systems. When it comes to hands, they agree Makai Lemon brings the best mix of reliability and highlight-level catches. Route running is the one category they treat as a clear lock, selecting Jordan Tyson as the best separator and tempo-based technician in the class. Contested catch goes to Denzel Boston, largely because of strength through contact and the ability to win at the catch point with “vice grip” hands. For the tougher “vibes” category, IQ, they settle on Skyler Bell, a player they credit for constantly being in the right place, understanding scramble drill rules, and winning with savvy rather than pure athletic dominance. Pedigree goes to Carnell Tate, based on recruiting profile and the full “pipeline” context. For burst and early acceleration, they choose KC Concepcion, with a quick note that measurements and speed will be huge for how the NFL views the role. They close physicality with Chris Bell, describing a tank-built receiver who plays with real edge and contact tolerance. Start Using the Film Room Today!

Rich Dotson and Garret Price are back for one of their most popular yearly shows: the real value of rookie draft picks. With the Combine running and rookie drafts right around the corner, they break down where picks actually hit, where they turn into roster cloggers, and why “not worth a first” is meaningless unless you say which first. Garret lays out the scoring tiers they track to define outcomes. A “hit” requires at least one Tier 1 season, or multiple Tier 2 seasons, with thresholds adjusted by position. Quarterbacks need top six seasons to count as Tier 1, running backs and wide receivers need top 12, and tight ends need top three. The point is simple: if a player never reaches at least Tier 2, that pick never truly helped your starting lineup. After adding the 2024 class to the spreadsheet, they call out early hits already logged, including Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Malik Nabers, Drake Maye, Brock Bowers, Ladd McConkey, Brian Thomas Jr., and Bo Nix, while noting plenty of names still need time to prove it. The biggest takeaway is the stability at the very top. Since 2018, the 1.01 has a 100% hit rate in their sample, and top four picks hit about three quarters of the time, with even more value when you include “mid” outcomes. After that, the first round becomes far less differentiated, and they point out an odd recent trend where 1.09 to 1.12 has slightly better results than 1.05 to 1.08. They dig into a possible reason: quarterbacks often get pushed into that 1.05 to 1.08 range in Superflex, and non-elite rookie quarterbacks are harder to “hit” by their definition. The broader lesson stays the same. Outside the top tier, it often makes sense to trade down, tier up into a proven veteran, or move picks into stronger future classes. They hammer the second round value drop. Once you get into the 2.01 to 2.12 range, the hit rate collapses, and third round picks become true dart throws. Their advice for contenders is aggressive: if you can turn a first into multiple years of a proven producer, that is usually the winning bet because many late firsts never become lineup players. Garret also tests a theory about late rookie drafts. If you trade late seconds and thirds for multiple fourths and fifths, the position most likely to return value is running back. Late-round running backs can become “ships to shore” quickly when injuries hit, and that short window can still flip into future seconds. They add that tight ends are often pushed down by the community chasing wide receivers, which can create value pockets in the late second and early third.

Rich Dotson and Garret Price are back with one of the cleanest ways to win trades in dynasty: the tier down. The goal is to move from Player A to a cheaper Player B when the weekly scoring gap is smaller than the market thinks, then take the “plus” in picks or players on top. This episode is built around one core idea: if you can get similar production and add extra capital, you are gaining value without sacrificing points. That can mean targeting bad ADP, fading hype, and taking advantage of managers who overpay for the “bigger name.” The show starts at quarterback with a bold move from Joe Burrow to Baker Mayfield, arguing the production gap can be much smaller than the startup cost gap if you price in injury volatility and the market’s perception. Rich adds that quarterback is often the easiest position to tier down and brings up Brock Purdy and Trevor Lawrence as other viable “score close and get younger” targets. At wide receiver, Rich looks at tiering down from Tee Higgins to Jameson Williams, focusing on age, pricing, and how close the points can be if the situation stays favorable. The bigger rebuild-style swing is moving off A.J. Brown to Christian Watson if the plus is strong enough, accepting volatility in exchange for youth, ceiling, and a future first. The running back discussion includes tiering down from Bucky Irving to Javonte Williams, leaning on role security after the contract. The spiciest move is a possible tier down from Jonathan Taylor to Travis Etienne, based on how close their realistic scoring ranges can be and the idea that Etienne’s market could climb fast with the right free agency outcome.

Combine week mock draft season is here, and Garret Price is joined by Andrew Mott to lock in a pre-Combine baseline: a two-round Superflex, tight end premium rookie mock that captures how they feel before testing, draft capital, and landing spots reshape the board. At 1.01, Jeremiyah Love is treated as the clear, no-drama selection in this format, with both hosts basically agreeing it would take something extreme to move off that spot. From there, Superflex value pushes Fernando Mendoza to 1.02, setting the tone for how aggressively quarterback can climb in this build. The top receiver conversation follows quickly. Carnell Tate gets the “safe profile” stamp near the top, while Jordyn Tyson comes off the board as a tape-driven WR1 type pick, even with Combine participation questions lingering. Makai Lemon stays firmly in the mix, and KC Concepcion is framed as one of the biggest “measurements and speed” swing players of the week. The mid-first pivots into playmaking and positional leverage, with Omar Cooper Jr. rising on the strength of space play and after-catch upside, and Kenyon Sadiq entering the conversation as the tight end premium value play. The back half of Round 1 rounds out with archetype receiver builds and more scarcity pressure: Denzel Boston and Germie Bernard come off the board, the RB2 conversation starts with Jadarian Price, and the quarterback swing at the end lands on Ty Simpson. Round 2 opens with running back scarcity forcing action as Jonah Coleman comes off the board early. The next pick leans into a traits-and-pathway bet with Emmett Johnson, with the discussion focusing on how receiving usage can create fantasy relevance if the opportunity appears. Receiver profiles then split into two lanes: outside archetypes and high-upside “hit one big play” bets. Ja'Kobi Lane headlines the outside profile conversation, while Mike Washington Jr. becomes a focal RB pick because size plus usable hands can create immediate NFL interest if the testing holds. Tight end premium comes back into play with Eli Stowers and Max Klare both getting love as prospects who could earn roles faster than the market expects. The late second becomes pure swing territory, featuring Ted Hurst and injured upside with Chris Bell, before the mock closes with another outside receiver bet in Elijah Sarratt and a final running back selection in Kaytron Allen. 📊 Rookie Big Boards 📝 Rookie Mock Drafts 📈 Dynasty Rankings 📱 Dynasty Nerds App 🧱 IDP Hub 👉 Upgrade your strategy and dominate your dynasty league.

Combine week is here, and Ceiling and Floor is back before the real testing starts. ⁠Jagger May⁠ and ⁠Andrew Mott⁠ run through a slate of running backs with ceiling and floor comps, while repeating an important reminder: these are stylistic outcomes, not destiny. The episode starts with Jeremiah Love as the clear top name in the class, with big, usage-driven upside and rare receiving potential. From there, they dig into the next tier of backs and what could swing outcomes at the next level: lateral agility for Jadarian Price, pass pro and role certainty for Emmett Johnson, and how speed testing could make or break the outlook for Jonah Coleman. Later, the discussion turns to the broader “don’t over-draft this class” warning, especially for dynasty players who might fall in love with RB2 in this group without comparing the talent to other NFL backs. That context shows up again when they get into Kaytron Allen, Mike Washington Jr., Nicholas Singleton, and Demond Claiborne, where landing spot, role, and Combine numbers could cause major movement. Behind Love, this class has more unanswered questions than usual. The crew argues that the Combine will be critical for sorting out who can erase athletic concerns, who needs specific coaching to unlock receiving or pass protection, and who might be pushed down boards when the testing confirms the doubts.
