📋 Week 4 is here. We're breaking down fantasy football rankings, the smash spots and crash spots at every position, hitting the injuries that could wreck your lineup, and going rapid-fire on the start/sit calls you're still sweating.
Kendall and Pete go through the top 12 quarterbacks, top 24 running backs, top 24 receivers and top 12 tight ends, then get into the spots that actually decide your week — Patrick Mahomes and Bryce Young in smash spots, Dak Prescott in a crash spot, Chase Brown, David Montgomery, and a warning on Omarion Hampton. At receiver it's Parker Washington and Josh Downs in plus matchups with Emeka Egbuka on the other side, plus George Kittle at tight end.
Then the Week 4 injury report, which might be the most consequential one yet. Sean McVay expects Puka Nacua back, so what does that mean for him and for Davante Adams. Justin Jefferson didn't practice to start the week, which puts Jordan Addison in line for a big one. Jayden Reed is having season-ending neck surgery, so Christian Watson and Matthew Golden both climb. Nico Collins returned to practice. And Adonai Mitchell is week-to-week, which sets up another possible Kenyon Sadiq boom.
Then a rapid-fire start/sit round on Braelon Allen, Brenton Strange, Keenan Allen, Jadarian Price and Javonte Williams, and they close by building a DFS lineup together for the week.

Week 4 Fantasy Stock Up/Stock Down: 5 Players on the Rise, Buy Low/Sell High Candidates and More!
jeudi 1 octobre 2026 • Durée 57:49
Whether you're 0-3 or 3-0, one well-timed trade can change your whole season. Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose utilization is on the rise going into Week 4 — and what's actually driving each move.Cam Skattebo climbs to a mid-range RB2 after a Week 3 where his snaps, rushes and route work all jumped at once. Jeremiyah Love rises to mid-range RB2 off a backfield that's tilted almost entirely his way. Josh Downs moves to a low-end WR2 as his role shifts downfield. Kenyon Sadiq jumps to a high-end TE2 after a 23.5-point Week 3 that came on a modest route share — which is the interesting part. And George Kittle rises to TE3 overall.Then the backfields where the lead guy is hurt — which of the Jets pair of Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, the Dolphins pair of Ollie Gordon and Jaylen Wright, or the Saints pair of Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller you can actually start this week.Then the part your league isn't thinking about yet. Is Chase Brown a buy low with his role intact but his production sliding? Is Bhayshul Tuten a sell high after three straight weeks under a 50% snap share while his fantasy points keep climbing? And is Tetairoa McMillan a buy low in an offense that keeps feeding him?They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again this week: what route share puts DJ Moore in mid-range WR2 territory, what Jordan Addison becomes with Justin Jefferson out, and what gets Kenyon Sadiq into low-end TE1 range.And they close with three adds to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Jaylen Wright, Pete stashing Tyler Goodson, Kendall on Tre Harris.🔍 Topics in this video:2026 fantasy football, stock up stock down, buy low sell high, route participation, utilization, week 4 fantasy football, Cam Skattebo, Jeremiyah Love, Josh Downs, Kenyon Sadiq, George Kittle, Braelon Allen, Isaiah Davis, Ollie Gordon, Jaylen Wright, Alvin Kamara, Kendre Miller, Chase Brown, Bhayshul Tuten, Tetairoa McMillan, DJ Moore, Jordan Addison, Justin Jefferson, Tyler Goodson, Tre Harris, fantasy football trade targets, waiver wireTimecodes:00:00:00 - Coming Up00:00:00 - Cam Skattebo00:00:00 - Jeremiyah Love00:00:00 - Josh Downs00:00:00 - Kenyon Sadiq00:00:00 - George Kittle00:00:00 - Starting a Backup RB in Week 400:00:00 - Buy Chase Brown Low?00:00:00 - Sell Bhayshul Tuten High?00:00:00 - Buy Tetairoa McMillan Low?00:00:00 - Dwain-Lib: DJ Moore00:00:00 - Dwain-Lib: Jordan Addison00:00:00 - Moves to Make NOW to Get Ahead

📋 Week 3 is in the books and it was a rough one. We're overreacting to the biggest results, holding an emergency press conference on four quarterback situations that fell apart, working through an injury report that reshapes multiple backfields, and getting you set for Week 4 waivers.
Kendall and Pete open with the Week 3 injury report which covers De'Von Achane's torn ACL and a season that's over, Baker Mayfield's thumb and a possible two-to-four week absence, Breece Hall's thigh with no update until Wednesday, Mike Evans' rib and oblique, and Jalen Coker's quad.Week 3 winners and worries — Jahmyr Gibbs at 41.4 and the RB1 finish, Jaxon Smith-Njigba going for 35.36 as the WR1, Bijan Robinson, Brock Purdy and Drake London on one side, Bucky Irving, David Montgomery, Jaylen Waddle, Omarion Hampton, Dalton Kincaid and Tetairoa McMillan on the other. Then Imagine That, presented by Xfinity Shield, on Jaxon Smith-Njigba chasing the single-season record for receiving touchdowns, receptions and yards, and Derrick Henry chasing the rushing touchdown record.
The overreactions: putting the mortgage on Brock Purdy MVP tickets, Jeremiyah Love outscoring both Patriots running backs combined, Brock Bowers winning regular season and postseason fantasy championships, and Geno Smith as this year's Jacoby Brissett.
Then the emergency press conference on J.J. McCarthy's fit in the Giants scheme, how much worse Tommy DeVito could actually be than Drake Maye, whether Marcus Mariota is better for the Commanders than Jayden Daniels, whether the Chargers win a game before November, and the Titans looking for Cam Ward's replacement in 2027.
Then Week 4 waivers with Panthers and Chiefs on bye in Week 5: Sam Darnold, Marcus Mariota and Jacoby Brissett at quarterback, Ollie Gordon, Jaylen Wright, Braelon Allen, Keaton Mitchell and Kendre Miller at running back, Malik Washington, Xavier Legette and Jauan Jennings at receiver, and Kenyon Sadiq as the top tight end priority after a 7-catch, 105-yard, 23.5-point TE4 week.

Week 3 Stock Up/Stock Down for Fantasy Football + Buy Low/Sell High & Moves to Make Now!
jeudi 24 septembre 2026 • Durée 58:30
Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose stock actually moved after Week 2 — and more importantly, the specific utilization behind each move.Parker Washington climbs again, this time to a low-end WR1. Jalen Coker rises into mid-range WR3 territory. Dalton Kincaid moves all the way into the top five at tight end. Going the other way: Rashee Rice slides to a low-end WR2, and the Bears pair of Colston Loveland and Luther Burden both drop, Loveland to a low-end TE1 and Burden to a high-end WR4.Then the part your league isn't thinking about yet. Bucky Irving has the sixth-highest running back utilization score in football at 90 — is that a buy even at a high price? George Pickens is averaging just 7.9 points per game on an 85% route share and a 23% target share, which is the exact profile of a player about to be cheap. Tucker Kraft's route participation jumped from 48% in Week 1 to 91% in Week 2 while his production fell. And Stefon Diggs is scoring 18.6 per game on a 59% route share — the definition of a sell.They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again this week: what route share puts Oronde Gadsden in the TE8-to-TE10 range, what gets Brian Thomas Jr. into WR3 territory, and what designed rush rate makes Tyler Shough a QB10-to-QB12 option. Those are the exact numbers to watch on Sunday.And they close with three adds to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Kenyon Sadiq, Pete on Oronde Gadsden, Kendall on Demond Claiborne.🔍 Topics in this video:2026 fantasy football, stock up stock down, buy low sell high, route participation, utilization, Parker Washington, Rashee Rice, Jalen Coker, Colston Loveland, Luther Burden, Dalton Kincaid, Bucky Irving, George Pickens, Tucker Kraft, Stefon Diggs, Oronde Gadsden, Brian Thomas Jr., Tyler Shough, Kenyon Sadiq, Demond Claiborne, fantasy football trade targets, waiver wire, week 3 fantasy football

Week 2 Overreactions + Week 3 Waiver Wire Targets: Injuries Galore, An Email from "Colston Loveland", The Chargers Stink & More!
mardi 22 septembre 2026 • Durée 58:34
Two starting quarterbacks (and a ton of other players) went down this week. Welcome to injury hell.
Kendall Valenzuela and Peter Overzet recap fantasy football Week 2 action — and this week they bring in someone who has actually called plays in the NFL. Former Raiders and Commanders offensive coordinator Scott Turner joins for Real Football vs. Fake Football, breaking down exactly how a coaching staff rebuilds a game plan when a star quarterback like Jayden Daniels or Caleb Williams is out, and what that means for every fantasy starter around them.
Then Overreaction Monday. Is it going to take Colston Loveland ten games to match what Dalton Schultz did on Sunday — 26 PPR points and 140 receiving yards? Is it TreVeyon Henderson's backfield for good? Woody Marks'? Plus Marvin Harrison Jr.'s future in the Canadian Football League, whether anyone will ever be able to start a Packers running back again, and the case that fourth-quarter Tyler Shough is better than Drake Maye.
The back half is entirely actionable. Every waiver target worth a claim for Week 3 — Bryce Young and Tyler Shough at quarterback if you just lost your starter, Emanuel Wilson, Jonah Coleman and Tank Bigsby at running back, Adonai Mitchell, DeVaughn Vele and Denzel Boston at receiver, and Dalton Schultz at tight end, all with roster percentages across ESPN, Yahoo and Sleeper.
And then it's time for It's Not Me, It's You. Kendall writes a letter to Kevin Stefanski and the Falcons. Pete receives an email from Colston Loveland.

Kendall and Pete go through the top 12 quarterbacks, top 24 running backs, top 24 receivers and top 12 tight ends, then get into the spots that actually decide your week — Dak Prescott and Jayden Daniels in smash spots, Trevor Lawrence in a crash spot, Aaron Jones against the Bears, Bucky Irving, and a warning on Jeremiyah Love. At receiver it's Mike Evans and George Pickens in plus matchups with Carnell Tate on the other side, plus the Raiders tight end situation with Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer.
Then the Week 2 injury report on Ladd McConkey, Joe Burrow, Zay Flowers, Ja'Kobi Lane and Nico Collins, a rapid-fire start/sit round on Jordan Love, Matthew Stafford, Quinshon Judkins, Xavier Worthy, Stefon Diggs, Michael Wilson, DK Metcalf and Jacory Croskey-Merritt, and they close by building a DFS lineup together for the week.

Week 2 Fantasy Football Stock Up/Stock Down, Buy Low/Sell High Candidates, Dwain-Libs, & Moves to Make NOW
jeudi 17 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:00:20
Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose stock actually moved after Week 1 — and more importantly, the specific utilization behind each move.
Christian Watson climbs to a mid-range WR2 and Matthew Golden to a high-end WR3 in a Green Bay offense that suddenly looks settled. Ashton Jeanty is a high-end RB1. Parker Washington is a low-end WR2 on a route share that could still grow. And Dalton Kincaid moves into the TE7-to-TE9 range.
Then the part your league isn't thinking about yet. Colston Loveland led every tight end in route participation at 89% and produced almost nothing — is that a buy? D'Andre Swift massively outperformed his usage — is that a sell, and what should you be asking for? And Rhamondre Stevenson, where the gap between role and result points somewhere specific.
They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again this week: what route share makes Christian Watson a WR1, what gets Parker Washington to a low-end WR1, what makes Isaiah Likely a mid-range TE1, and what rush share turns Jadarian Price into a mid-range RB2. Those are the exact numbers to watch on Sunday.
And they close with three adds to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Elijah Sarratt, Pete on Emmett Johnson, Kendall on Antonio Williams.

Week 1 Overreactions: Celebrations & Panic, Week 2 Waivers, and Letters to Our Players
mardi 15 septembre 2026 • Durée 58:35
It's Monday after Week 1 of fantasy football. Somebody in your league is about to drop a player they drafted in the fourth round. Don't be that person.Kendall Valenzuela and Peter Overzet are kicking off "Overreaction Monday" on everything Week 1 threw at us! We're sorting the results that actually mean something from the ones that are going to look silly in three weeks.They start with the takes that feel true right now and probably aren't: the Bears as the highest-scoring offense of all time, the Bills looking like a Super Bowl lock after what they did to Houston, and the Chargers costing you more than just your survivor pool. Then the backfield questions — whether Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery can both finish as RB1s, whether Jonathon Brooks getting out-rushed by A.J. Dillon is a real problem, and what a Travis Etienne rotation means once Alvin Kamara is back.Then the part that hurts: Ja'Marr Chase, Drake London and DeVonta Smith all laid an egg, and the target and target-share numbers tell three completely different stories about why. Bench, cut, or fire into the sun? Plus the tight end debate Kendall has apparently been waiting all offseason to win.The back half is entirely actionable. Every waiver target worth a claim this week, position by position — Jalen Coker as the headline add, quarterback help in Tyler Shough and Carson Wentz, Kaelon Black at running back, a deep receiver group in Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Demarcus Robinson and DeVaughn Vele, and Michael Mayer at tight end.And then they write letters. It's Not Me, It's You — Pete to Zay Flowers and Ja'Kobi Lane, Kendall to Carson Wentz.🔍 Topics in this video:2026 fantasy football, week 1 recap, overreaction monday, waiver wire, Ja'Marr Chase, Drake London, DeVonta Smith, Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery, Jonathon Brooks, Travis Etienne, Christian Watson, Isaiah Likely, Theo Johnson, Jalen Coker, Tyler Shough, Carson Wentz, Kaelon Black, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Demarcus Robinson, DeVaughn Vele, Michael Mayer, Zay Flowers, fantasy football waiver wire, week 2 fantasy football
