Jeremiyah Love is up there with some of the better RB prospects we’ve had lately just a tier below Ashton Jeanty, Bijan Robinson, Jahmyr Gibbs, etc… 1st round NFL pick seems like an easy lock if he builds off 2024 season and stays healthy.
Heisman Favorites for 2026 (per Kalshi): 17% — Arch Manning 15% — CJ Carr 13% — Josh Hoover 9% — Dante Moore 8% — Julian Sayin 8% — Malachi Toney 8% — Trinidad Chambliss 7% — Jeremiah Smith 7% — Gunner Stockton Can a non-QB win the award?

@ddav2015 Give it to me straight. What am I doing w/ Sammy?
Idk if anyone at @HBO is going to see this, but PLEASE, for the love of God, select the Vikings to be featured on #HardKnocks this season. 🙏
Sam LaPorta’s value in dynasty leagues has hit its lowest point since he entered the league, creating a massive opportunity for anyone looking to secure a cornerstone tight end. Here is why the data says he’s the ultimate "buy low" candidate for 2026: 📉 The "Injury Discount" LaPorta’s 2025 season was derailed by a herniated disc that required surgery in November. Because he finished as the TE24 (total points) and missed the fantasy playoffs, many managers have "out of sight, out of mind" syndrome. • The Reality: Before the injury, he was the TE6 in fantasy points per game (11.9). • The Recovery: He is only 25 years old and expects to be full-go for training camp. Back microdiscectomies have a high success rate for return-to-play in elite athletes. 📊 Elite Efficiency Metrics Even in a "down" year, LaPorta’s underlying efficiency remained elite. Among tight ends in 2025: • Yards Per Route Run (YPRR): 2.00 (5th) • QB Rating per Target: 128.7 (5th) • Yards Per Target: 10.0 (3rd) • True Catch Rate: 100% (1st) The dip in production wasn't a talent regression; it was a volume and health issue. The talent is still top-tier. 📋 The "Petzing Effect" The Lions recently hired Drew Petzing as their new Offensive Coordinator. This is huge for LaPorta. • In Petzing's previous system in Arizona, Trey McBride just set the NFL record for receptions by a tight end (126) and finished as the 2025 TE1. • Petzing's scheme historically funnels targets to the tight end as a primary read, not just a safety valve. 🏟️ The Market Overreaction With the emergence of rookies like Colston Loveland and Tyler Warren, LaPorta has been pushed down into the "Tier 3" or “Tier 4” range in many dynasty rankings. • Trade Tip: You can currently acquire a proven 25-year-old elite producer for a late 2026 1st, straight up with "hype" players like Oronde Gadsden or add a small piece on top of a “safe” player like Jake Ferguson. Bottom Line: You’re buying a top-5 talent at a top-12 price tag because of a surgery that will be a distant memory by September. #dynastyff #fantasyfootball
#Commanders TE Chig Okonkwo sounds motivated to play in Washington 😤 “I’m going to be a featured guy from the first week … I’m excited to finally show exactly what Chig Okonkwo is supposed to look like on a football field for a whole season” (🎥: Next Man Up / @BC__TV)
This might surprise you, but I'm BACK IN ON LAPORTA!🦁 Ignore the "80-year-old man" back surgery quotes. At just 25, he’s primed for a massive bounce-back. Here is why you need to be buying the dip: 1/5🧵👇
