Hey guys, it's us.
The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe.
I'm Kevin.
And I'm Nick.
And guess what?
We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.
Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it.
But, you know, tired and sick.
Tired and sick.

you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.
Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros. This is the Fantasy Football podcast. It's me, Joey P.
Joe P. Zippia. And today we are going to take a look at some dynasty by lows and sell highs.
This is that perfect time with the NFL draft around the corner, the combined behind us and rookie
drafts on the horizon to take a look at some of the assets that we might have on some of our
long-term rosters, what we can move for them, what we could get back for them,
who should be going away, far, far away from any of the rosters we have.
Now it could be the time to really make some big changes that could impact you positively
in 2026 and to help us identify some of those pieces, Scott Bogman, Pat Fitzmores,
two of our gems from the Dynasty podcast.
And of course, if you're watching this on the Fantasy Pros feed, don't forget,
you can also watch it on the Dynasty feed as well.

Gentlemen,
is a really interesting time of year, right?
Because we hot off the Combine,
very excited about all the prospects.
We're doing all the mock draft shows,
all that stuff's going on.
But Boggs,
this is also a great time to start evaluating the rosters that we have
and starting to make some maneuvers to see
what kind of picks we want to acquire in 2026 and beyond,
what kind of players we think might be assets and undervalued right now.
100%.
I mean, it's a great time to kind of reevaluate and look.
You know,
all the mock drafts.
are pretty fun until free agency and then after free agency it's like okay now let's look for
some accuracy out of these these mocks right so it's going to be a fun time a great time and it's a
good time to evaluate your team take a look at who the free agents are who's kind of solidified
in some of their spots who is maybe wavering maybe guys going to sign there that could impact
their future so it's it's a good time to kind of go and a sneaky time to buy and sell well
speaking of sneaky here, we're going to start with the buys and we're going to start with a running
back. And Fitsy is coming out of the gate hot because this guy, I mean, it's certainly a buy high.
I mean, it might be the highest his values ever been in his career. And Fitsy, you're still buying
this guy. The last game that we had of the 2025 slash 2026 NFL season, this guy ended up
with a big award. So let's talk about Ken Walker and why you think he's a buy despite the fact
that values in an all-time high.
It is a buy high, Joe, but mainly it's because I don't think he's going to wind up going back to what was kind of a frustrating spot for him last year.
So Kenneth Walker ranked 28th in PPR points per game during the 2025 regular season.
As good as that playoff run was, Zach Charbonnet was the Seahawks designated goal lineback and cut into Walker's regular season workload to some degree.
But then Charbonnet tore his ACL early in the Seahawks first play.
off game and Walker went completely nuclear during Seattle's playoff stretch, better than 100
rushing yards in Seattle's three playoff games, 139 yards from scrimmage per game, four touchdowns.
But the Seahawks did not tag Walker.
They did not give them the franchise tag.
So they're going to let them test the market.
And, you know, Seattle has a decent amount of cap space, but the Seahawks probably are going to
assign Jackson Smith and Jigba and Devon Witherspoon to big contract.
extensions at some point in 2026, so maybe they don't splurge on resigning Walker.
And, you know, if they let Walker walk, whom, walk.
And he is a...
Who that man?
So if he gets a bigger workload with some other team and maybe isn't getting poached
at the goal on the way he was in 2025, or if he comes back to the Seahawks,
at least he would figure to be a workhorse early in the season while Charbonnet works
his way back from the knee injury.
So either way, I think we're going to see a value increase for Walker.
And yes, he's not going to be cheap now, but I don't think you're like walking in any blind spots if you buy him now.
I think his workload's going to be bigger and the role's going to be better than it was in 2025.
All right.
You use two puns when talking about Walker.
Third one, you're out.
We have to cut you out of the show.
I'm just telling you right now.
So let's talk about what that price is because I imagine it's pretty high, right?
we've been talking about that performance.
We've been talking about eye opening to a lot of other NFL franchises, but also to
fantasy managers as well.
So what would it take to get Ken Walker in terms of players, picks?
Like, what's a combination in your head to make that deal happen?
So I know a lot of people are expecting a breakout season from Marvin Harrison, Jr., and
think it's imminent.
And I think, you know, our trade value charts, I'm not sure about our trade value chart.
I know some of the other ones in the market have Marvin Harrison Jr. valued higher than Walker.
I would give up Marvin Harrison Jr. straight up for Kenneth Walker.
Right now, I wouldn't even think twice about it, especially with the possibility that Malik Willis goes to the Cardinals and then you're going to see passing volume plummet.
Like the Cardinals led the league in pass attempts last year, that's not going to happen if Malik Willis is their quarterback.
And you've also got Trey McBride and Michael Wilson there.
So I'd give up Marvin Harrison Jr. for him.
I think I'd give up Zay Flowers for him.
That seems like kind of an even exchange.
All right. Yeah, actually the Zayflowers, maybe you throw in like a fifth round pick or something like that, maybe too.
sweetening it up a little bit if you have to.
Let's talk about a running back that you want to buy, Scott Bogman.
Who is that guy for you that you've circled?
Yeah, it's Chase Brown.
And I know there's some worry about love being in the Bengals vicinity during the draft,
but I can tell you two things.
He ain't going to last that long, Boggs.
Number one, he ain't last and past.
I think he gets picked at three.
I think the Cardinals take him at three.
So I don't think he's going to make it to the Bengals.
And even if he did with them not franchising Trey Hendrickson and letting him,
walk, they have to do what the Panthers did last year.
I feel like all their money that they have in cap space, all their draft picks need to be
spent on the defensive side of the ball.
And if they are spent on offense, they need to be fixing that O line that you cannot draft
skill position players out of this class for this team that already has better skill position
players.
So, you know, Chase Brown last season, 10th in touches.
He was seventh in points per game in PPR, which is most in the league for running
back.
seventh points per game, seventh and total points as well, and he's ranked as RB12.
Now, that's where I have him as well.
I think there are better backs than him still.
But this dude has had increasing touches for three straight seasons.
He was over 300 this season and 10th in total touches.
So he's 25 years old.
He's in the prime of his career.
He's on a good offense with a defense that still has to outscore, that has to have their
offense outscore the opponent because the defense is a sieve.
They can't stop anything.
So I'm adding Chase Brown, if I can, pretty much at any point.
And I think the price point on him, and let me ask you, Fitsy, who would you want in this draft over Chase Brown?
Jeremiah Love, is there another player?
Oh, a running back?
Good Lord.
Any player.
Is there a wide receiver you'd want over him?
Would you take like Tate and Lemon and Tyson ahead of Chase Brown?
That's fine, but that still is only four players.
I think I would.
I would.
I don't know where Fitsy is, but I think I would.
would, especially depending on landing spot.
How about you fit?
It's close.
I think the value is close.
I mean, I just, because Brown is a couple years into his career and wide receivers generally
age pretty well.
I think I would value Tate, Lemon, and Tyson just a little bit higher than Chase Brown,
but it's in the ballpark.
And nobody else for sure, right?
Like, if Sadiq ends up maybe in his dream scenario of, like, Philly when they trade
A.J. Brown or something, right?
Like something like that, I could see.
But I think for the most part, your top four or five picks in the rookie class.
If you're not picking in that group, I would trade that pick to get Chase Brown in a non-superflex.
Well, Boggs, let me put this to you.
Would you rather have an early second round 2026 pick or Chase Brown, right?
I think that's early 20206 or Chase Brown is Chase Brown all day.
Okay.
What about late first round, 26?
Chase Brown.
Okay.
I'm telling you, after pick five, if this isn't super.
flex you know just the picks are worth a little more in super flex but even so it's not a great
quarterback class right yeah 100 so uh but just uh yeah i i think post those top five or you know
four or five players to me it's four and then uh i want chase brown so really you could even
say it's one if you don't need a wide receiver it's just jeremiah i love that you take over chase
brown that's it the the problem with the quarterback class is the inexperienced too like tie simpson
you know what 14 games as a starter whatever it was right right right the guy the guy
guys with that track record, uh, going into the NFL is not good.
I think the only guy to succeed was Campbell, uh, Cam Newton.
But again, his tools are kind of off the chart.
So I don't know if that's a good comp to, you know, the, the, the fact that, you know,
when guys don't play a lot of college games, they typically tend to struggle in the NFL.
You can go through the list of guys.
A lot of clipboard holders in this year's quarterback class.
A lot of guys with long NFL backup careers.
Yeah.
Let's put it that way.
All right.
Fitsy, let's talk about a wide receiver that you want to buy right now.
And it's a guy that start off like gangbusters in the beginning of the year and it faded dramatically
in the second half.
Emeka Egbuka, talk to me about his value in dynasty going forward.
Yeah, so with Abuka, I think this is maybe a good time to move in before free agency
because the Buccaneers are not expected to resign Mike Evans.
They don't have a ton of cap room.
They're in pretty good shape at receiver even without Evans with, you know, Ibuka, Godwin, Jalen McMillan,
Tess Johnson.
So they've got a lot of other needs.
I don't think they're going to add any wide receivers and they're going to let Evans walk.
If Evans does, in fact, leave, Abuka is going to have a chance to establish himself as the number one receiver in Tampa.
And, yeah, as people are going to remember, Abuka was a standout in training camp last year and got off to a blazing start.
Five touchdowns in his first five games.
He was the wide receiver three in PPR through the first five weeks of the season.
And then things kind of went sideways.
Abuka tweaked his hamstring in week six.
He tried to play through it, but just wasn't as effective.
Baker Mayfield's performance kind of fell off.
after a hot start, which might have been because the offensive line had a bunch of injuries.
I think things are going to look a lot better for a book, and we're going to see something closer
to the Emeka Ibuka we saw in the first five weeks of 2025.
I think this is a good time to buy.
What would it cost to get an mecca, a buca, in your opinion?
Yeah, I mean, I would trade James Cook for him.
And I think James Cook's value has never been higher.
In Superflex, if I had a little bit of depth at quarter,
quarterback, I'd be willing to trade Bo Nix for a mecca at Buka.
And I would certainly give up any draft pick in this year's rookie draft other than the
101 or 102.
I'm just going to say, this is the guy that if you've got the 104 and you're sitting there
and you don't love this class, like Bucca's a year and you've already seen some success,
I would make that flip in a second.
I mean, and I'd even consider the 102.
Like if I didn't need a quarterback and it was either Mendoza or Bucca and I needed
wide receiver help more than quarterback, I might do that deal, although I'd probably try
ask for a little bit more. Boggs, do you agree with that evaluation of Eggbuka? Absolutely, 100%.
I mean, I still have a me at pick number 12, or wide receiver number 12, excuse me. So I have him
as a wide receiver one in this, uh, you know, currently in dynasty. And I also, I think it's just like
Chase Brown. Like the only player that I would guarantee for sure want over him in this class is
Jeremiah Love. And the fact that Mike Evan said he's going to test the free agent waters is could
throw his targets through the roof if Mike Evan signed somewhere else.
So yeah, I'm all about getting a mechagbuka.
I think he's the best player on this bias list that we have.
All right.
Let's go to another wide receiver here.
Bogwin, all offseason has been a lot of buzz about Alec Pierce.
It seems like Indianapolis could be in his future.
But then again, maybe not.
We all know that the NFL is a constantly moving animal.
So what's their take on Alec Pierce here in 2026 and beyond?
Well, I think, you know, he's just being viewed as less than he should be right now.
He's currently ranked as like a wide receiver four, I believe.
I think his ECR would be wide receiver 43.
I have him at 34, so I see him more as a wide receiver 3.
And the performance with Daniel Jones was great last year.
Obviously, you know, they've had a lot of struggling quarterback issues before this season.
And then Daniel Jones came in and was awesome before.
his Achilles, but he put up his best weeks with Philip Rivers in the last month of the season.
Now, he had massive swings again like guys like Alec Pierce do, where he was just, you know,
getting you close to the donut and then a wide receiver one performance and then another
donut and then a wide receiver one performance.
So he was inconsistent with a guy like Philip Rivers.
But I think the ability to put up those big numbers become such a red zone threat that he has
become and a deep play threat, you know, he's always going to be a little bit less valuable
in a PPR league because he's just not a guy that's going to get, you know,
a hundred catches in a season.
But I think if you view him as if he's being viewed as a wide receiver four,
wide receiver five, somewhere in that range,
and he's more of a wide receiver three,
there's value there to be bought.
And I kind of,
I think he can be successful in most places.
He's not 100% completely quarterback proof.
I don't think anybody is.
Justin Shefferson proved that last year, right?
But I do think if you perform with Philip Rivers and his, you know,
the ghost of Philip Rivers passed or whatever.
He was not.
He was a bad armed quarterback at this point.
So if you can perform with him,
I think he's going to be able to go almost anywhere and perform well.
Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers.
And guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news,
huge news?
We created our own podcast called,
Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of,
of podcasts around there.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name,
Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it
one of the early names of our band
before Jonas Brothers.
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing,
a bit for the podcast,
where people could call in and say,
Hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my,
little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.

Bugs, you know I am pro Alec Pierce.
I kind of think he's the discount, Jordy Nelson.
But here's the butt.
Would it dampen your enthusiasm at all if it were the Titans, who he said?
signed with because the Titans have a ton of cap space and a pretty barren wide receiver
room right now.
I mean, they, I don't know what Calvin Ridley's status is, but, you know, last year was
Shemir D.K. and, like, Iyamanner.
Right.
They could use a veteran, you know, a veteran.
More cap space than anybody either, right?
For sure.
But, you know, Cam Ward and Cam Ward played pretty well over the last month, or at least
much better than he had.
But the first few months of the season were pretty alarming.
like would it diminish your enthusiasm at all if he signed with Tennessee?
Not at all, actually.
I kind of think Tennessee would be a good landing spot for him because, you know, the thing that
annoys you about Cam Ward would be really good for Alec Pierce-Fitzie.
Cam Ward holds the ball too long.
So if he's getting, you know, an extra step on that DB because Cam Ward is holding the
ball, he's going to have some big, big plays for Tennessee if he does land there.
And they have a lot of cap space.
So that is a very decent landing spot for him.
I think I'd be more concerned if he went to like Pittsburgh.
You know, we don't know who the quarterback is there.
D.K. Metcalf kind of does the same stuff that Alec Pierce does, and it's probably going to continue
to be run first offense the way the offensive line has been built.
So I think there are other places that Alec Pierce could go that would be worse than Tennessee.
I actually think Tennessee would be an okay place.
Fitsy, I'm not going to lie, the quarterback that you've tagged here for a buy.
I absolutely love.
I was a guy that I was in on last year and just redraft leagues.
And I feel like we're starting to get back to the elite level of this.
player potentially soon, especially if he has a little bit healthier offensive line in 2026.
Let's talk about Justin Herbert, what it's going to take to get him on your roster and why
you want to buy him in Dynasty.
Yeah, it's going to take a lot.
He's by no means a buy low.
But I think it's worth making an offer for Justin Herbert, even though it's not easy to buy
good established quarterbacks in Dynasty.
But Herbert is going to get offensive tackles Joe Alt and Rishon Slater back from injury.
He's going to be throwing a Ladd-McConkey, Quentin Johnson.
Orronda Gertz in the second and second year guy, Trey Harris.
Herbert's going to have Mike McDaniel as his offensive coordinator, which is exciting.
And here's where maybe the pre-free agency by target angle comes into play.
There are only nine teams with more than $40 million in cap space, according to Spotrack.
I don't know if that's totally up to date as of now, but last time I checked, which was like a day ago.
there are only four NFL teams with more than $80 million in cap space.
The Chargers have $84.9 million.
Fourth most in the league, and they're not far behind the number two commanders and number three Raiders.
Titans mentioned earlier are number one with a bullet with about $90 million.
So Herbert, the reason he might actually be attainable, like his first three seasons in the league,
his yardage totals range from about 4,300 yards to 5,100 yards.
last two seasons has not reached 4,000 yards.
First two years in the league, 31 TD passes as a rookie, 38 TD passes in year two
hasn't thrown for more than 26 TD passes in any of his last three seasons.
And yet his passer rating, his YPA, some of the other passing metrics suggest he's been
just as good, if not better than he was in his first few years.
Again, not that I think anyone is down on Justin Herbert and looking to ditch him,
but I do think maybe, you know, he's attainable with a very generous offer.
Bottom line, I think the Chargers are going to buy themselves some interior
offensive line help, which they need badly.
Like the play they got from their center and guards last season was just abysmal.
And that's going to change.
Like, I think of what the Bears did last year when they bought themselves an entire
interior offensive line with Joe Thune and Chris Dalman and Jonah Jackson.
And I think the Chargers are going to do something similar this year.
and that's going to set up Herbert for a big bounce back season.
What would it take, Joe?
I'd trade C.D. Lamb for Justin Herbert if I needed QB help.
I would give up Trey McBride for Herbert in a Super Flex League in a heartbeat.
And I know that some trade value.
You're going to tie-in premium one?
I'd consider it.
I think we probably just saw the best season Trey McBride is ever going to
have. I would possibly agree with that. Certainly his values at a peak. Let me throw this one out
you. This is a little outside the box. This time last year, everybody was talking about how good
the quarterback class of 2026 is going to be. And we have Arch Manning and this guy and all these guys
and a lot of guys didn't either come out or perform very well. Would you leverage, say, if you had
a late first round pick this year with a first pick in 2027, not knowing how that's all going
to shake out? Like, we all think it's going to be good. We can all hope.
that it's going to be good and work out and all these quarterbacks that we're excited about,
end up playing well in college, saying healthy, having good years, and then being top draft stock.
But would you do that for Herbert, who's still got his prime years ahead? I feel like it's something worth
considering if you had like a late first this year and then a 2027 first and then keep all the players
you have and try to win now with Herbert. Look, man, in Superflex, quarterback is the name of the game.
I think I would give up a 2027 first, even if I was sort of on the come up and that first round pick could
potentially be. I mean, I'd be a little heart sick about it if it turned out to be the 101 and
Jeremiah Smith. But yeah, I think I would make that trade. Fair enough. All right. Let's get to a
quarterback that Bogman has his eyes on to buy. He's been a very popular guy, Malik Willis.
Bogwin, let's talk about what it would take to acquire him and why you want to purchase.
I assume based off of what you saw in some limited starts this year for the Green Bay Packers.
Yeah, I won't put anyone else through my Chachy McCarthy rhetoric here.
But look, Arizona's the rumor.
The Cardinals have Trey McBride.
They have Marvin Harrison.
They have Michael Wilson.
They still have James Connor and Trey Benson on that line.
They have the number three overall pick that might be there for Jeremiah Love.
And I think they're going to fix up that offensive line and spend a lot of draft picks on defense as well.
So perfectly reasonable to sit and wait, right, and see where Malik Willis ends up before you go and trade for him.
but the only game he finished with more than 11 pass attempts.
We saw him hit QB3 for the week.
He had that was week 17 against Baltimore,
281 yards and a touchdown and also two rushing touchdowns
and 60 yards rushing on nine attempts.
This dude can win with his legs.
He can pass the ball well and he's learned a lot after sitting
and waiting behind Jordan Love.
The same way Jordan Love sat and learned behind Aaron Rogers.
And, you know, he's going to go.
He's going to sign somewhere to go and start.
Pittsburgh's the rumor, the Jets, the Cardinals, there's Miami.
There's so many teams that absolutely needy quarterback.
So I think wherever he ends up, he's going to be a pretty good value.
I don't think, and I think Fitsy will be with me on this.
I don't think I'd give up a 2027 one from Malik Willis just yet, right?
Like I know quarterback is the name of the game, and we're right there.
I would, in a superflex, I would give him up for anyone that's not Jeremiah I love as is.
as has kind of been the theme here.
You know, with this current draft class, there's a lot of talent in it.
But, you know, it's not next year's draft class.
And there's proven talent in the NFL.
So I think I would rather have Malik Willis than the rest of the rookies,
but in a superflex in particular.
But it is the upside.
The upside's there.
It's waiting for him to take it.
He has to unlock it.
maybe this could be a bust,
but I think from what we saw out of him,
I'm really excited.
I'm a Steelers fan.
I want them to sign him.
Don't think it's going to happen,
but I'm really hoping for Aaron Rogers
to make a retirement decision
so the Steelers can give him the full court press here.
I should have been who they drafted over Pickett, by the way.
Well, that's fair.
It also feels as though, yeah,
but who knows if they could have developed him
and how that would have worked out.
Sure, yeah, 100%.
Because they would have to throw him to the wolves
the way Pickett did basically, too.
So it might not have been the,
the best situation. This path for him to, you know, might be the right one.
Leflore and love might have been the best case scenario for him. But I will say this, too,
I think every year there's always that one quarterback or one guy that people are like,
oh, this is like the trendy guy, right? I think the dangerous don't overpay from a legal
willis too. Would you agree with that sentiment? Because there is a lot of unknown still. I know he's a
quarterback. I know quarterback is king in the Superflex dynasty, but got to be a little careful.
But everybody thought they knew what Daniel Jones was, right? And so no one paid for Daniel Jones.
even me.
My thought process was, let's give Anthony Richardson this job with Stiking and see what happens
here.
And it didn't work.
Daniel Jones took it and ran with it.
Kind of, you know, so kind of like that situation.
I want to say the Arizona situation is very nice for a quarterback, right?
Malik Willis is the big rumor right now, but I might be interested in whoever ends up
taking that Cardinals job because the weapons are there.
But I'm also interested in wherever Malik Willis ends up because there is.
there's a lot of talent with this guy.
And if he is going to run, if he goes to an OC, that will let him run.
He could have a massive impact on the quarterback market.
All right.
So those are the guys we want to buy.
We're going to hit a quick break here.

Let's take a look at the cells.
Scott Boblin, why don't you go first here with the running back?
Josh Jacobs, why is it time to get out from old?
Josh, who's been pretty steady for the pack these last couple years.
Man, he really has been.
And this isn't like necessarily a you have to trade Josh Jacobs.
This is just in typical running back fashion, this is the last time you're going to be
able to get probably enormous value for him.
Maybe next year, he turns 20, 29, but that transition year of 28 to 29 is typically
where running back start to lose some steam, right?
And Josh Jacobs is played through everything.
and we saw him play through everything this year, and it was still awesome,
but the dude has had over 2,000 touches in his career, 2109, exactly.
And this might be the last time to get a good haul for him.
There's also a weaker running back class coming in through the draft,
so there's not as many options to pick up and run with through the draft this season.
So I think that this year with the weak draft class,
you know, there's some guys that may get jobs in the free agent market.
but I don't think anything that is anywhere close to what Josh Jacobs is.
So this is probably the last time that you have to go and get peak value for Josh Jacobs.
That's why it's not that I dislike him.
I don't think he's going to fall off a massive cliff or anything.
But this is typically when the guys do it and you can still get a haul for him.
So if you want to, you know, avoid that falling knife and all of that, this is the time to go ahead
and trade Josh Jacobs and try to get your roster a little bit younger.
Well, he's going to be 28 this year.
So theoretically, there should be at least another year or two there.
So I can understand, I would think Boggs the ideal team is a,
you're shopping into a team that can win now, right?
Right.
Like that's the best case scenario.
You're looking around for a roster in your league with a team that you think is going to be
very competitive this year and you take draft picks or you take guys or works in progress
that you think it's going to be better long-term investments.
So, yeah, I can see that going through.
All right, let's talk about a running back that Fitsy wants to get rid of before it's too late.
Fitsy, who's that guy for?
you. Yeah, we've been doing some big game hunting with the, the Bison cells to this point.
This is more like low-level swap meet stuff. But, like, if I've got Jacori Kroski-Marrett,
I would be willing to see what I could get for him. Because right now, the commanders only have
two draft picks in the first four rounds of the draft. They don't have a second round or a
fourth rounder. But Washington does have a ton of salary cap space, third most. And I think they're
going to, or maybe second most, sorry.
I think they're going to sign a free agent running back.
I don't think they're going to draft Jeremiah Love when they've only got these limited
early round draft picks.
And if they sign a free agent running back, be it Tyler Algier, even someone like Aaron Jones,
I think that further blocks Jacorri Kroski Merritt, who was already losing early down
work to Chris Rodriguez last season, even though some of the efficiency metrics for old Bill were
sneaky good, like success rate and yards per carry.
But I would cash him in for a younger receiver who hasn't really popped yet,
like Trey Harris, maybe Tori Horton.
And I'd probably even take a late second rounder for him.
Heck, I'd probably even take a 2027 third for Jacori Kroski Merritt.
Yeah, it definitely seems like Washington is going to look somewhere else at that running
back position.
We already had some running back movement in this offseason two.
David Montgomery has already moved on to a new spot here via trade with the Houston Texans.
So it's going to be interesting.
I think there's going to be a lot of RB little chess game getting played here right there.
So those are two running backs.
The guys are looking to sell.
Let's talk about a wide receiver, Scott Bogman.
Let's kick us off.
Let's go with Cortland Sutton.
Another age concern here for, but also the Broncos are likely to add some talent.
They don't have a lot of needs in the NFL draft right now.
They don't have a lot of needs in free agency.
This team was very good.
I think maybe a backup quarterback.
should be on their list of things they need to buy after watching the AFC title game here.
But the one position they have that I think a lot of people are mocking for them is a linebacker.
Well, if they sign a linebacker, now it's kind of just take BPA.
And they could take a wide receiver.
They could sign a wide receiver.
I think Franklin and Bryant should improve, but a speed weapon like Casey Concepcion, Chris Bell, something like that,
would pull targets away from everyone.
Cortland Sutton just turned 30, right?
So we're getting into another guy that this might be the last time
where you can get massive value for him.
If they add another wide receiver who's younger, faster,
like if they would have added Ekbuka last year,
he would have been the wide receiver one for the Broncos, right?
Like, I don't think that that's really a question.
So I love Cortland Sutton.
He's done a lot of good for me.
He's been a cheap buy that has provided you way more than he's given you.
But if you, this is the,
kind of the last stop. I feel like if you want to get good value for Cortland Sutton,
this is the last time you're going to be able to trade him. Well, I think like Jacobs, too,
it's always good when you're trading a guy in a situation where he's still playing well,
you know, before you miss that window. So if you're out a year too early, okay, well, whatever,
you know, it happens sometimes. But it's better than being out a year too late. And these guys
lose value, especially if you can figure that out. So if you're trying to cover your bets right now,
make sure you draft some wide receivers and look to move on from Cortland Sutton.
Next guy on the list, another guy who's getting a lot of buzz this offseason.
Certainly was a busy boy because everybody else around the New York Giants wide receiver
Gore got hurt.
So let's talk about Wondell Robinson Fitsy.
What fits in terms of for you moving on with him?
Yeah.
So dynasty leagues are typically PPR leagues.
So people pay attention to reception totals.
And Wondale Robinson has had more than 90 catches each of the last two seasons.
He's at exactly 140 targets in each of the last.
two seasons. Last year, a career high, 1,014 receiving yards. And Wondale had, I think, the best
possible runout he could have had with the Giants the last two seasons. In 2024, it was basically
Wondale, Malik, Neighbors, and no one else catching passes from Daniel Jones. And last year,
Neighbors gets hurt early. Wondale has 66 more targets than anyone else on the Giants last year.
So now he's a free agent. Sounds like the Giants are not interested in resigning out.
I think it's inevitable that wherever he goes, Wondell Robinson is going to see major target share slippage in 2026.
So if anyone is still, you know, transfixed by those 90 catches the last two years, like, I think it's a good time to sell.
And I wouldn't even, you know, I'm not holding anyone's feet to the fire for Wondell Robinson.
Like I'd even, I'd take Zach Charbonne coming off the AC Altair.
I'd take Dalton Kincaid.
one.
Dalton Kincaid.
I'd take Kincaid, even though his usage is kind of suboptimal in Baltimore.
Heck, in a Super Flex League, Joe, I think I would even gamble on Scott Bogman's boy,
J.J. McCarthy for Wanda Robinson straight up.
Well, look, I mean, sometimes there's just principal buying, right?
Like, where a guy's stock is rock bottom.
Like Anthony Richardson's another one of these guys, too, where it's like, buy it.
Buy it because I'm not saying that these guys started the next gym.
The cost is so cheap, even if he, even if,
they never come through.
It doesn't cost you anything to be wrong, but for some reason they figured out,
especially because they're so young still.
I mean, both those guys,
they just kind of like,
you know,
you just wait a little longer and see maybe they'll land in a good situation
where they start to develop a little bit better.
And, you know,
Baker Mayfield at one point was a rock bottom by.
You know,
Sam Darnel was a rock bottom by.
Now I'm not saying either of those two guys are nearly as talented as J.J.
McCarthy.
But you take that shot for cheap.
Yeah.
Take that shot for sheet.
Yeah.
same thing with Sam Darnold even, but it's, it's the theory of it.
And it's going to cost you even less than it did to buy those guys.
And I think if you go back to that question that, uh, Fitsy asked me about Alec Pierce, right?
Like Alex Pierce going to Tennessee, would that bother me?
Not really because of the way Alex Pierce plays.
If Juan Dale goes to Tennessee, now I'm, I'm pretty concerned for him, right?
Like, because you're going to have Tennessee.
He's going to draft some wide receivers as well.
Uh, we know that.
I think Shemar D.K. could take another step up, but that now, now,
you're competing with DK for
these slot touches, right? Because that's what
Wondale is. He's a slot merchant.
So if he goes to the Jets,
Garrett Wilson is there.
And easily, you're number one.
If he goes to commanders, they have Terry McLaurin, right?
These are the teams with money.
Your Steelers need a slot guy, Boggs.
Yeah, how often are they going to throw to him?
As often as Calvin Austin probably
got the ball. So, yeah,
there are many, many scenarios that I would
dislike for Wondell Robinson to end up
in, you know, he worked
worked well with Malik neighbors.
So maybe he could work well with the number one like Garrett Wilson,
but who's throwing him the ball with the Jets?
So, you know,
I think I'd rather have Russell Wilson and Jackson Dart throwing me the ball
than whoever is going to be slinging it for the Jets unless it's Malik Wills this year.
All right.
So there you go.
Those are wide receivers and running backs.
And remember,
when you're trying to make these moves, use the tools.
Don't be a tool.
The trade analyzer is there for you all offseason long.
So if you make a two-for-one deal or swap in a couple draft picks for a stud player,
one of these buys that we're talking about,
use the draft tools that we have here, use the trade tools we have here, Fantasy Pro's.
The Trade Analyzer will help you optimize your rosters so you can make the best decisions.
You can check it out right now on the Fantasy Pros app, or you can just go to Fantasypros.com
slash My Playbook to use the trade analyzer.
Again, all the tools here for drafting for your rookie drafts in a couple weeks around the corner.
Everything's going to be here for you.
So make sure that you, again, sink your leagues for free.
Use all the tools for Dynasty and for your redraft leagues too.
All right, let's close things out here with the QBs to get rid of here.
Scott Bogman is a big name here, a guy who's been really good the last couple years in fantasy.
Obviously last year was a little bit of a disappointment for this team collectively.
So even in Superflex, you're willing to part with Jalen Hertz.
This might cost a lot of people some draft capital, I think.
Hey, look, there's a theme with the players that I picked for this sell, right?
And it's, uh, this is kind of the last time you can get a big haul for these guys, I feel like.
And Shailen Hertz might be that way this season.
He's gone from quarterback two in 2023 to quarterback eight in 2024 to QB 10 in 2025.
Tell me how he's declining.
And that is going to get better if they trade AJ Brown, which seems inevitable at this point.
Or if they ban the tush push.
Yeah, I don't think that's going to come up again.
But I mean, that could run out of steam, right?
Maybe people learn how to stop it or at least the offense could run out of
team a little bit if you don't have AJ Brown here. I just don't see a world where
this quarterback Jalen Hertz improves without his best target and AJ Brown is his best target.
Who are you bringing in? Like, you know, you trade up for Carnell Tate. He's not A.J.
Brown, right? Like, there are, there are guys that are going to replace him. But right now on the
roster, it's Devante Smith. You also are losing Dallas Goddard, right? So you have two
awesome weapons still. You still have Devonte Smith, the Heisman winner. You still have
have Sequin Barclay, a guy that is MVP caliber, right, but had a down year because of so many
touches in 2024 plus the playoff run. I think it'll be better in 2025. But is that going to
make Jalen Hertz that much better? I don't think so. So still a, you know, QB1, even, you know,
with the declining numbers that he has here, we know the potential is very high because he runs and
because he gets those rushing touchdowns. I just have a lot of concern if they trade A.J. Brown
and try to replace him without signing or getting a stud back.
And I just don't see where that's coming from.
So I think right now is the last time to trade Jalen Hertz and get a massive haul for him.
All right.
So let's talk about that massive haul for Hertz too because it seems like, you know, that would,
you seem like you could get a ton for.
I think what you said you got for Herbert, you could, you could potentially get for Jalen Hertz, right?
Like, you know, you could.
Sure.
What do you think about that?
fits a late 26 and then a 2027 shot for Jalen Hertz?
I think you get that.
What about CD Lamb?
You just want another guy on CD Lamb deals.
Yeah.
That's another one though.
That's another guy that's in flux a little bit.
I think to Bogman's point, too, if you are on the other side of that and you're in a
rebuild and Hertz is your best piece and you feel like the last couple years are going
in the wrong direction a little bit, that is the draft pick.
you want as much draft capital as you can get in the first round of next year.
theoretically, again, theoretically, because I said that last year, this time.
But again, it's lightning probably doesn't strike twice here and kill us, I don't think.
I don't think so either.
There's so much talent in next year's quarterback class.
And I think, I think they're going to stay that way.
So I think this is a time to trade Jalen Hertz, specifically if you're rebuilding and get
the best haul because you want to get into that 27 first round.
And even if you're trading him to a good team and it's a back half, okay, well, the glut of
quarterbacks at the top is going to push the talent down the board to the late first round
for you.
So you're going to get someone that you probably would have got in the top five picks in the
2026 class, the 2024 class, or 2025 class, you're going to get at the back of the first here.
So the 27 class is theoretically second to none as every class is, but really this class.
looks stacked in 2027.
All right, Fidsey, let's close out with another QB here.
You're looking to kind of seeing which you can get on the open market.
Yeah, Joe, just a few moments ago, you harken back to the days where Baker Mayfield was a
good by low target and he was undervalued, maybe buried a little prematurely.
Now I think the Baker Mayfield pendulum might have swung back a little too far in the other
direction.
I tend to think he's a little overvalued.
And I don't want to be inconsistent with the advice here because I mentioned Emeka Abuka's a by target.
And I do think Baker Mayfield is certainly good enough to support, you know, high-end wide receivers.
We've seen that with Mike Evans recently.
But hard to ignore how Baker Mayfield season took a downturn last year.
And yes, part of that was the Buccaneers did have a lot of offensive line injuries.
But Baker was not playing well as the season went on.
good start, but from week seven on, he averaged 195.8 passing yards a game and just 6.2 yards per
attempt, which is a pretty alarming Bryce Young caliber number. Basically, he turned bad before the
leaves turned callers last fall. And now he's almost certainly going to play the 2026 season without
his favorite security blanket, Mike Evans. So might be a good time to move on if you got some
quarterback depth.
In Superflex, like, I'd be willing to take, tell me if this is a light return for Baker
Mayfield, the starting quarterback in Superflex, I'd take Harold Fanon for him.
I think that's fair.
I mean, what is Baker had two years?
I think it's a little light.
Like, I think, I think by perspective, it's a little light, too.
So at least ask for a pickback at a second or third or whatever.
I also think, because I got new coaching regime coming in and Fanon's got some question
Marks, they were quarterback and coach and system.
Yeah, but he was good with garbage quarterback play last year.
He was, but who knows what garbage are going to dig up in Cleveland this year?
It can't be worse than last year.
It can't.
You know what?
Cleveland Brown's been saying that for 20 years.
You're right.
Just keep that in mind.
Before I plan a flag, you are correct about that.
So yes.
Sorry Cleveland Browns fans.
I mean, you're the first ones to say it.
So let's not pretend like you're not wrong.
But it is an interesting discussion.
This has been a great conversation.
make sure you drop your comments below in the YouTube.
Which one of these guys are you buying?
Which one are you selling?
Who your favorite buy lows and sell highs in Dynasty right now?
Now is the time to be making these moves because sometimes there's some value to be had
before NFL free agency really kicks into gear in, you know, less than 24 hours from when they show airs, I believe.
And then on top of that, you've also got the NFL draft coming up and guys are going to land in certain spots.
And it's going to change people's values artificially.
