## Resource

It’s time to get BOLD before Week 1! Tera Roberts, Derek Brown, and Andrew Erickson reveal their biggest fantasy football predictions for the 2026 NFL season, including breakout candidates, potential busts, and several calls that could completely reshape your draft strategy. Could Parker Washington and Christian Watson finish as top-12 fantasy wide receivers? Is Jayden Daniels being drafted far too early? The crew debates Jacory Croskey-Merritt’s RB1 upside with the Washington Commanders, David Montgomery’s downside with the Houston Texans, and why Quentin Johnston could emerge as the Los Angeles Chargers’ clear WR1. Plus, Erickson plants his flag on Trevor Lawrence finishing as the overall fantasy QB1 and winning NFL MVP. The crew also breaks down Jalen Coker vs. Tetairoa McMillan, Makai Lemon’s rookie outlook, and the late-round players who could smash their ADP. Get the bold predictions you need before finalizing your 2026 fantasy football draft!
