Dynasty Nerds Podcast | Dynasty Fantasy Football

Wide receiver week rolls on, and the top of the dynasty board is starting to feel a lot less settled than it looks. On this episode of the Dynasty Nerds Podcast, Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price build their consensus top 12, hunt for dark horses, and name the guys they are flat out avoiding. 🎯

Ja'Marr Chase, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Puka Nacua are locked in, but the real debate starts right behind them. The guys make the case that CeeDee Lamb, Justin Jefferson, and Amon-Ra St. Brown are living on borrowed time at these prices, with a loaded 2027 class waiting to push them down. Malik Nabers, Drake London, Tetairoa McMillan, Garrett Wilson, Emeka Egbuka, and Carnell Tate all get their moment, and one of them draws a Larry Fitzgerald comparison. Check your own board against the dynasty rankings before you listen.

Jameson Williams, Denzel Boston, and Rome Odunze headline the top six sleeper picks. Then things get spicy with the avoids, where Alec Pierce, Nico Collins, and DeVonta Smith all get called out, one of them a full round below consensus. 🔥

Training camp hype season is here, and every rookie is suddenly a breakout waiting to happen. On this episode of the Dynasty Nerds Podcast, Garret Price and Andrew Mott sort the signal from the noise with a simple 1 to 4 scale, where one means not buying it at all and four means full blown conductor of the hype train. 🚂

Listen to This Episode:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTube

The show opens with a four, and it belongs to Cyrus Allen. Andrew calls him his most rostered player in dynasty right now, pointing to a Kansas City receiver room with real cracks and a rookie who has been the go to target from the moment he walked in the building. Jacoby Lane draws the loudest beat reporter praise of camp, and the guys explain why Baltimore opportunity is real even if the ceiling talk has gotten out of hand. Carson Beck earns a matching three from both hosts after his Hall of Fame game reps, with a 2027 path that should sound familiar.

Not every drumbeat lands. Jonah Coleman, Nick Singleton, Jordan Tyson, and Ted Hurst all get the cold water treatment for very different reasons, and one of them takes a one from the analyst who likes him most. Fire up the episode before your next round of rookie mock drafts. 🔥

2027 Rookie Mock Draft: Two Rounds Before a Single Snap

College football is less than three weeks away, so it is time to put a stake in the ground. Garret Price and Andrew Mott run a full two round superflex tight end premium mock for the 2027 class, and the depth here is going to change how you value your current roster. 🏈

Jeremiah Smith goes 1.01 without debate, and Andrew says teams should already be tanking for him. Cam Coleman follows as the receiver who would headline almost any other class. Then the quarterback run starts with Dante Moore, Arch Manning, and Julian Sayin, and Garret explains why he took the ceiling swing over the safe pick. Quinshon Lacy and Ahmad Hardy come off the board before the first tight end, Jamari Johnson.

Jaden Baugh gets a Javonte Williams comparison from Garret, who thinks he could close the gap on the top backs by December. Traeshon Green makes it two potential first round tight ends. And the guys ran out of picks before they ran out of names, which tells you everything about this class.

Dynasty Running Back Rankings: The Top 12, Dark Horses, and Guys to Avoid

Part two of the positional primer lands on the most volatile spot in fantasy football. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price lay out the consensus top 12 dynasty running backs and disagree hard on what any of them are actually worth in a trade. 🏈

Listen to This Episode:

🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify▶️ YouTube

Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs sit alone at the top, and the crew agrees almost nobody dislodges them. Below that, Ashton Jeanty, De'Von Achane, Jeremiyah Love, and Omarion Hampton form a tier, though Rich is not convinced Hampton belongs in it and would rather have Breece Hall. The real fireworks come over price. Garret will pay three firsts for the top two and two firsts plus for the next tier. Rich has a personal rule against paying multiple firsts for any running back, and explains exactly why. Treveon Henderson gets called the hardest player in the sport to rank.

RJ Harvey, Jonathan Brooks, and Bhayshul Tuten get the dark horse nods for a top six finish. On the avoid list, Chase Brown, Josh Jacobs, and one popular rookie whose ADP has climbed past the guys these three would rather roster.

Compare their board to the current Dynasty Rankings.

The quarterback position is about to get shaken up, and the 2027 class has not even arrived yet. Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price kick off a two week positional primer with a full breakdown of the dynasty quarterback landscape heading into 2026. 🏈

Listen to This Episode:

🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify▶️ YouTube

Josh Allen or Drake Maye at the top? The crew is split, and the tiebreaker comes down to five elite years versus ten good ones. Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels round out a top four dominated by the 2024 class. Then comes the murky middle with Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert, Lamar Jackson, and Patrick Mahomes, where the community and the nerds disagree sharply. Rich makes an aggressive case for Trevor Lawrence as a top five dynasty asset that Garret is not quite ready to sign off on.

Kyler Murray in a quarterback friendly system gets multiple votes as the guy who could vault into the top six out of nowhere. Rich likes Daniel Jones more than anyone expects. On the avoid side, one Super Bowl winning quarterback and one riser are getting valued far higher than this crew is comfortable paying.

See where they all land on the current Dynasty Rankings.
