Yooo!

This is it. One more game and the season is finally over. It feels like it went by in a blink.

I really don’t care how the Super Bowl turns out. I think there are good storylines on both sides. Which means I’ll mainly be rooting for my box pool numbers to hit šŸ¤ž 

Either way, it should be a good game! Hope you all have a fun time this weekend with family and friends.

In case you missed it, we dropped the newsletter cadence down to 1x per week for the early part of the offseason.

We’re working on some big updates to the website and can’t wait to share them with you as we make progress!

In the meantime, you can expect our newsletters to land in your inbox every Wed at 9pm EST up until the NFL draft (late April). We’ll increase the newsletter cadence again after that.

Last week, I asked you all: ā€œWhere is Tucker Kraft in your dynasty TE rankings?ā€

66.2% of you said TE 4-6.

Best subscriber comments: (TE 1-3) ā€œOwned him from day 1. He's a stud.ā€

Our take: You guys are spot on. 5 or 6 feels right to me. I’d probably move Fannin above him because of age (21 vs 25).

Alright, now let’s cover 5 of the most important insights from the past week.

Giddy up.

Why is everyone launching a newsletter?

Because it’s how creators turn attention into an owned audience, and an audience into a real, compounding business.

The smartest creators aren’t chasing followers. They’re building lists. And they’re building them on beehiiv, where growth, monetization, and ownership are built in from day one.

If you’re serious about turning what you know into something you own, there’s no better place to start. Find out why the fastest-growing newsletters choose beehiiv.

RB - Ashton Jeanty (LV)

  • Jeanty had a somewhat disappointing rookie season, finishing as the RB11 despite being the RB5 in preseason ADP. He ran for 975 yards with five rushing touchdowns, but was more effective in the passing game, catching 55 of 73 targets for 545 yards and five additional touchdowns.

  • Despite his inefficient 3.7 YPC on the ground, Jeanty showed promise by forcing the fifth-most missed tackles (61). This suggests potential for improvement with better offensive line support and indicates his ability to create plays.

  • The potential arrival of Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza as QB1 and the likely hiring of Seahawks OC Klint Kubiak as head coach could set up Jeanty for a significant sophomore season breakthrough. The article notes his college performance of 2,601 yards at 7.0 YPC, positioning him as a dark horse candidate for the RB1 title.

  • Our take: Jeanty is an interesting target if the manager in your league still has a sour taste in their mouth after a ā€œdisappointingā€ rookie year. I’d be buying where I can.

Where will Jeanty finish in PPR scoring next year?

WR - Pat Bryant (DEN)

  • Pat Bryant's 2025 season with the Denver Broncos was characterized by a gradual rise in offensive importance, starting with minimal playing time in early weeks and eventually emerging as a potential key receiver. After playing just four snaps in Week 1, Bryant was initially behind Troy Franklin and Trent Sherfield on the depth chart.

  • A turning point came in Week 11 and Week 12, where Bryant began to outsnap Troy Franklin and showed significant potential with performances like a crucial 48-yard deep strike. Sean Payton seemingly used the bye week to elevate Bryant's role, with Bryant outsnapping Franklin 49 to 37 in Week 13.

  • Despite being hampered by a hamstring injury and a concussion that interrupted his momentum, Bryant - who just turned 23 in December 2025 - is positioned as a potential breakout candidate for 2026. With uncertainty around Marvin Mims Jr.'s consistency and other offensive weapons, Bryant could emerge as a significant receiving threat for the Broncos.

  • Our take: This was arguably one of the worst WR rooms in the league this season, which means the opportunity is there for someone to step up. Knowing this is a need, there’s a chance they bring in more outside competition, but I think it’s okay to have some optimism about Bryant moving forward.

WR - Travis Hunter (JAX)

  • Travis Hunter faces uncertainty with the Jaguars' plan to continue using him on both offense and defense in 2026. The team's trade for Jakobi Meyers and the emergence of Parker Washington as a slot receiver create potential challenges for Hunter's role.

  • Hunter primarily ran routes from the slot (63.7%), which could be impacted by the growing presence of other receivers in the Jaguars' offense. This positional competition suggests potential limitations in his fantasy value.

  • The article recommends actively seeking trade opportunities for Hunter while his value remains high, suggesting he is more of a high-end WR3 and potentially tradable for a late first-round or early second-round rookie pick.

  • Our take: This is not the Broncos WR room… As a Hunter owner in one league, I am very nervous about next year. There were rumors of Brian Thomas getting moved, but even if he does, this WR room still seems crowded. Meyers and Washington clearly had a connection with Lawrence down the stretch. It feels like the Jags could get more out of Hunter on defense. I’d probably sell Hunter for any 1st at this point.

RB - TreVeyon Henderson (NE)

  • Henderson showed promise early in the 2025 season, averaging 19.4 fantasy PPG from Weeks 9-12 when he became the feature back due to Rhamondre Stevenson's injury, looking like a potential league winner.

  • His performance dramatically declined after a standout Week 15 game, with Henderson struggling to consistently produce, crossing 10+ fantasy points in only one of his last seven games (a largely meaningless Week 18 game).

  • The Patriots' coaching staff continues to trust veteran Rhamondre Stevenson more, particularly in critical areas like red zone and passing game situations, meaning Henderson needs significant improvement this offseason to justify a potentially high ADP.

  • Our take: Couldn’t end the newsletter without talking about some guys in the ā€œBig Game.ā€ This is a situation where I’m buying the talent and hoping the playing time sorts itself out eventually. We’ve already seen what he can do with the workload when he gets it.

QB - Sam Darnold (SEA)

  • Despite playing the game of his life against the Rams in the previous game, Darnold faces a challenging matchup against the Patriots, who rank first in PFF pass coverage grade. The article suggests he is liable to make bad decisions under pressure.

  • The Patriots' defensive scheme is expected to potentially give Darnold fits, with the author predicting a potential 'come-down-to-earth' performance after his impressive NFC title game showing.

  • There's a specific prop bet suggesting Darnold is likely to throw at least one interception, highlighting the potential vulnerabilities in his game against a strong defensive team.

  • Our take: Darnold has put up back-to-back seasons of QB9 and QB13 and it still feels like people think of him as a low-end QB2 (or even worse). Maybe a strong performance in the Super Bowl will change some people’s minds? I’d probably sell high if anyone valued him as a fringe QB1 and would consider buying if valued as a low-end QB2.

That’s all for tonight!

See ya pizza,

Joe
