    Week 6 Stock Up/Stock Down + Buy Low/Sell High Candidates + Moves to Make NOW!
    Oct 15 2026
    Marvin Harrison Jr. is in Houston, and that’s not the only thing that moved. Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose utilization shifted going into Week 6 — and what’s actually driving each one. Rhamondre Stevenson climbs to a borderline RB1. Marvin Harrison Jr. rises to WR4 with WR3 upside, and they get into what specifically about the Texans offense changes his outlook. Isaiah Likely pushes into high-end TE1 territory, and Mike Evans moves up to a high-end WR2. Going the other way: Jaylen Waddle falls into WR3 range. Then the part your league isn’t thinking about yet. Is Bhayshul Tuten somehow a buy low and a sell high at the same time? Is Jeremiyah Love a buy at his current price? And is Denzel Boston a sell while people still believe? They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again: what average route depth would knock Marvin Harrison Jr. down to a mid-range WR3, what attempt share makes MarShawn Lloyd a short-term low-end RB2, and what Emeka Egbuka becomes at a 25% target share with Baker Mayfield back. And they close with the stashes to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Samaje Perine, Pete on Roschon Johnson. 🔍 Topics in this video: 2026 fantasy football, stock up stock down, buy low sell high, route participation, utilization, week 6 fantasy football, Marvin Harrison Jr, Rhamondre Stevenson, Isaiah Likely, Mike Evans, Jaylen Waddle, Bhayshul Tuten, Jeremiyah Love, Denzel Boston, MarShawn Lloyd, Emeka Egbuka, Baker Mayfield, Samaje Perine, Roschon Johnson, fantasy football trade targets, waiver wire Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Week 5 Fantasy Recap: Overreactions, Waivers & More (Feat. Scott Turner)

    Week 5 Fantasy Recap: Overreactions, Waivers & More (Feat. Scott Turner)
    Oct 13 2026
    📋 Four teams are on bye in Week 6 — Bengals, Lions, Dolphins and Vikings — which means a lot of lineups are about to have holes in them. We’re getting you ready, plus overreacting to Week 5 and figuring out what’s real. Kendall and Pete open with Overreaction Monday. Not being able to get a second-round pick for Marvin Harrison Jr. in dynasty. Whether Michael Wilson is the Marvin Harrison Jr. of the Cardinals. Whether the Commanders outsourced clock management to AI, plus general Washington-Giants fallout. The Packers’ new playbook being “Christian Watson and Matthew Golden are down there somewhere.” Drake Maye having the worst three-game start to an MVP season ever. And whether the Chase Brown experiment is officially over. Plus Imagine That, presented by Xfinity Shield, on Rico Dowdle taking a Caribbean vacation that lasts until January and what that means for Jaylen Warren. Then Real Football vs. Fake Football with former NFL offensive coordinator Scott Turner — whether the 49ers are Super Bowl favorites or whether the injuries catch up to them, whether the NFC East is officially the worst division in football and who actually wins it, and whether the Vikings deserve to be taken seriously as contenders. Then It’s Not Me, It’s You, with Pete going at Sean Payton and Kendall going at the entire NFC East. Then the Week 6 waiver wire with four teams on bye. Aaron Rodgers and Jalon Daniels at quarterback. Woody Marks, Kendre Miller, Dameon Pierce and Seth McGowan at running back. Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper, Germie Bernard, Christian Kirk, Efton Chism and Kyle Williams at receiver. And Brenton Strange and Pat Freiermuth at tight end. 🔍 Topics in this video: fantasy football week 6 waiver wire, week 6 waiver wire pickups, week 6 bye weeks, fantasy football advice 2026, overreaction monday, week 5 fantasy football recap, Marvin Harrison Jr, Michael Wilson, Jaylen Warren, Rico Dowdle, Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Drake Maye, Chase Brown, Scott Turner, 49ers Super Bowl odds, NFC East, Minnesota Vikings, Sean Payton, Aaron Rodgers, Jalon Daniels, Woody Marks, Kendre Miller, Dameon Pierce, Seth McGowan, Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper, Germie Bernard, Christian Kirk, Efton Chism, Kyle Williams, Brenton Strange, Pat Freiermuth Learn more about your ad choices.

    Week 5 Fantasy Preview: Rankings, Smash/Crash Spots, Injuries, Start/Sit & More!
    Oct 10 2026
    📋 Week 5 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 — Jacoby Brissett and Matthew Stafford in smash spots with Brock Purdy in a crash spot, D’Andre Swift and Aaron Jones at running back with a warning on James Cook, Jameson Williams and Michael Wilson at receiver with Chris Olave on the other side, and both sides of tight end with Mike Gesicki smashing and Tucker Kraft crashing. Then the Week 5 injury report. Lamar Jackson’s ankle sprain is being called “unconventional,” so how do you handle the Ravens offense with Tyler Huntley under center. Saquon Barkley is week-to-week, which means deciding how confident you actually are in Will Shipley. Rhamondre Stevenson has a knee issue from Sunday, which could mean wheels up for TreVeyon Henderson. And Ladd McConkey is day-to-day, which raises the real question — can you start any Chargers pass catcher at all if he sits. Then a rapid-fire start/sit round on Josh Downs, Jayden Daniels, Dalton Kincaid, Ollie Gordon and Woody Marks, and they close by building a DFS lineup together for the week. 🔍 Topics in this video: fantasy football start or sit this week for week 5, fantasy football rankings, fantasy rankings changes, week 5 injury report, week 5 fantasy smash spots, week 5 fantasy crash spots, week 5 QB rankings, Week 5 RB rankings, Week 5 WR rankings, Week 5 TE rankings, Week 5 NFL DFS lineup building, Jacoby Brissett, Matthew Stafford, Brock Purdy, D’Andre Swift, Aaron Jones, James Cook, Jameson Williams, Michael Wilson, Chris Olave, Mike Gesicki, Tucker Kraft, Lamar Jackson, Tyler Huntley, Saquon Barkley, Will Shipley, Rhamondre Stevenson, TreVeyon Henderson, Ladd McConkey, Josh Downs, Jayden Daniels, Dalton Kincaid, Ollie Gordon, Woody Marks Learn more about your ad choices.
