Latest takes
“So, when you are looking at players like Jahmyr Gibbs , Puka Nacua , or Bijan Robinson and see huge fantasy-point totals from last season, think of them as the contestants who walked away from every rose ceremony with a flower in their hand.”
Brooke Morgan· Sep 4“ADP 1 1 Jahmyr Gibbs DET RB1 1 3 2 1 0 2 1 Bijan Robinson ATL RB2 1 4 2 1 0 3 1 Ja’Marr Chase CIN WR1 1 5 3 1 0 4 1 Puka Nacua LAR WR2 1 10 4 1 1 5 1 Jaxon Smith-Njigba SEA WR3 3 10 6 1 2 6 1 Amon-Ra St.”
FantasyPros Staff· Sep 3“Jonathan Taylor , Derrick Henry , Jahmyr Gibbs , and Bijan Robinson could all threaten 300 rush attempts, making them excellent candidates to become the 2026 NFL rushing yards leader.”

“When London was on the field, Pitts’ target share was 18.9%, which ranked third behind London (32.1%) and Bijan Robinson (21.2%).”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 31“The 1.12 feels like an awfully long wait when your leaguemates are sitting there deliberating over Jahmyr Gibbs or Bijan Robinson at the top of the draft, but all good things come to those who wait, and having two selections in the top thirteen picks is a price worth paying sometimes.”
Tom Strachan· Aug 31“01) | Bijan Robinson | RB, Atlanta Falcons The case for Bijan Robinson as the best pick in fantasy football is not a hard argument to make. The former Longhorn ranked first at his position in the following Player Profiler efficiency metrics: Yards per Touch, Evaded Tackles, Yards Created, and Production Premium.”
Kyle Lesti· Aug 29“Bijan Robinson (RB – ATL) Robinson has been a fantasy star since entering the NFL, posting a top-nine PPR finish every year of his career. Furthermore, the former Texas star finished as the RB3 in 2024 and the RB2 last season despite totaling only seven rushing touchdowns.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 27“If we all start Bijan Robinson in Week 2 at home against Carolina, who really wins? Especially if manager Todd starts him against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 12 and earns more fantasy points for it.”
Raju Byfield· Aug 25“In PPR leagues at pick two, you’re choosing between Jahmyr Gibbs, Ja’Marr Chase or Bijan Robinson . 2.11: Derrick Henry (RB – BAL It’s very rare for me to draft two running backs in the first two rounds in PPR leagues, but I can’t pass up Derrick Henry this late in the second round.”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 25“List of RBs last season with at least 400 receiving yards and 1,000 rushing yards: CMC, Bijan Robinson , Jahmyr Gibbs , De’Von Achane , and Chase Brown .”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 22“Robinson is my favorite bet to be the RB1 overall in 2026.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 14“Last year, Bijan Robinson was the RB2 in fantasy points per game. For most of the season, he was pacing towards a 1,000-yard season for rushing and receiving before tailing off at the end of the season (820 receiving yards).”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 14“Meanwhile, Bijan Robinson is the top overall player on my board and should see a spike in goal-line rushing work with Tyler Allgeier finally gone.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 12“To kick things off, I went with Bijan Robinson. He just got a massive extension, and he’ll touch the ball well over 300 times in an offense that’ll rely heavily on him.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 12“Fantasy Football Research & Advice Fantasy Football Expert Rankings 2026 Fantasy Football Draft Kit Fantasy Football Trade Analyzer Fantasy Football Draft Strategy: Pick 1.04 Players to Consider at 1.04 Fantasy Football Draft Pick These players will likely be available when you make your selection: Ja’Marr Chase (WR – CIN) Puka Nacua (WR – LAR) Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR – SEA) Christian McCaffrey (RB – SF) It’s fair to assume at least one of Bijan Robinson or Jahmyr Gibbs will be gone, if not both, as they’re the consensus top two picks.”

“Usually, Dak is an easy stacking option for whoever gets CeeDee Lamb or George Pickens , but Jason argues Dak is a discounted version of Joe Burrow as part of one of the elite passing offenses in the league.”

“The newly arrived George Pickens recorded a 22.1% target share in the red zone compared to Lamb’s 18.6%, which was also behind Jake Ferguson , who led the team with 23.1%.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 31“Never mind that George Pickens will cut into CeeDee Lamb ‘s target share in Dallas, and vice versa. Lamb and Pickens play in one of the league’s most prolific passing attacks, which makes both of them appealing draft targets.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 30“The notes back it fully: he commands an offense that ranked fifth in points per game with a loaded skill group in CeeDee Lamb , George Pickens , and Jake Ferguson , and there is genuine “meat on the bone” in his touchdown production. He is a locked-in QB1 with top-five upside going at a discount.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 25“Lamb remains a locked-in WR1 with a stellar quarterback in his prime and George Pickens alongside him to keep defenses honest.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 14“However, not every dinner has to be the filet mignon. Sometimes, you are perfectly happy ordering the mac and cheese, and that is where a player like George Pickens comes in.”
Brooke Morgan· Aug 12“Fellow wideout George Pickens is ranked just four spots behind Lamb in the Player Profiler Dynasty Rankings , and the gap is closing.”
Kyle Lesti· Aug 11“Flowers was one of 3 WRs (JSN and George Pickens ) to post at least 470 yards of YAC with an ADOT of at least 10 yards.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“Pickens finished as a WR1 for the first time in his career, and there is no reason to think a repeat is out of the question. He is still behind CeeDee Lamb for targets, but he should contend for WR1 status.”
Jason Kamlowsky· Aug 11“The Cowboys made no meaningful additions at RB this offseason and are running it back with Dak Prescott , CeeDee Lamb , and George Pickens .”
Jordan Pullett· Jul 29“Wide Receiver The WR1 cutoffs sit close together, with one analyst drawing the line at Chris Olave and the other going one tier higher to George Pickens.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 25“Pickens answered that question by expanding his role after moving to a more aggressive passing offense, aided in part by a teammate missing time. The argument is that Pickens has already shown he can grow into a larger role, while Tate hasn’t yet, which should push Pickens ahead of him, possibly by more than a single spot.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 18“Dallas will have a tough dilemma if franchised WR George Pickens has a Pro Bowl season and Overshown remains healthy.”
