QB Rankings 2026

Mobile, dual threat QB’s are not only starting to take over the NFL, but are quickly becoming huge assets in fantasy football as well. It’s always been a strategy in fantasy football to wait until the later rounds to draft a QB, however, with the rushing appeal young QB’s have in today’s NFL, it might be wise to start thinking about a new fantasy draft strategy. 

With talent at an all-time high, player pools in fantasy leagues have never been deeper. This allows for managers to reach for QB’s earlier than usual, while still be able to stack the rest of their lineup and bench in the later rounds. For full insight on how fantasy football is changing, click here.

RB Rankings 2026

It’s funny, a position that is notoriously valued by fantasy managers, ironically is devalued by general managers. For years, RB’s have been a foundation for fantasy teams most managers wouldn’t think twice about taking one in the first round of every fantasy draft, no matter the position. But with more and more NFL GM’s unwilling to pay a premium price for RB’s, we are finally starting to see the effect it has on fantasy football. 

There is no secret, the NFL is a pass dominant league. Last year we saw just as many WR’s as to RB’s get drafted in the 1st round of fantasy drafts. However, each year is different to its own respect. This fantasy season The Dollaboys are putting emphasis on finding at least one true workhorse RB. This is otherwise known as the ‘Hero RB Strategy’ and is very viable when rounding out a fantasy football lineup.

RB’s are still the most valuable and crucial position in fantasy football, without a doubt. Just ask the CMC owners from the last two years. Our advice is to go out and get your ‘Hero RB’ in the first round. There will be plenty of WR depth available later in the draft. Solidifying that workhorse RB spot on your roster will make your path to a league championship that much easier.

With that being said, the so called “RB dead zone” in rounds 3-6 straight up doesn’t exist. It’s a myth and there can be just as much talent found there than any part of the draft. Don’t be afraid to fill in that second RB spot too early, you can never have too many RBs. If the WR’s you’re aiming for get taken, don’t panic and reach. Instead, stack up at a position like RB and work the trade market. After all, drafting is just half the skill. Here’s our full RB rankings:

  1. Jahmyr Gibbs, DET
  2. Bijan Robinson, ATL
  3. Christian McCaffrey, SF
  4. Jonathon Taylor, IND
  5. James Cook, BUF

  7. Chase Brown, CIN
  8. Derrick Henry, BAL

WR Rankings 2026

With all due respect to legends such as Jerry Rice, Randy Moss, and Terrell Owens… the depth and skill level of today’s WR’s in the NFL is currently at an all-time high. It’s not unusual for every generation to have a couple of standout WR superstars, but it seems like every team has one nowadays; some have two. We’ve mentioned the passing game is taking over in the NFL, and a big contributor has been the increase in WR talent coming into the league. 

With so much WR depth in the NFL, don’t get discouraged if you missed out on some of the top guys. Focus on securing your targeted RBs, don’t worry about reaching for your guy. There will be plenty of WRs available in later rounds of the draft that could be used both as starters and bench depth. Studs on top of studs, check it out.

TE Rankings 2026

Besides Brock Bowers and Trey McBride, TE’s are usually the most difficult to predict when it comes to fantasy football, especially draft position. It’s one of those positions you never want to reach for; more like let the position fall to you.

With that said, we like a bunch of different TE’s this year who should all be available in the later mid-later rounds if we miss out on Bowers and McBride. Here’s the list and rankings of the order which TE’s should get drafted in.

Defense Rankings 2026

If you’re one of those people who draft a team defense before the 10th round, I’m sorry. In no circumstance should you ever draft a defense before building up a bench. Drafting a defense shouldn’t even be a thought in your mind until at least the 12th round. If we’re being honest, you don’t need to draft a defense until the second to last round.

Yeah having a top defense might feel like a flex, but in reality you’ll get way further in fantasy football by streaming different defenses week by week based on matchups rather than just riding with one defense all season. A strategy we use to draft a team defense is to pick a team that has an easy schedule to start the season. It’s not brain surgery, it really is that simple. Don’t overthink it or reach for a defense. be patient and trust the process.

  1. LA Rams
  2. HOU Texans
  3. SEA Seahawks
  4. DEN Broncos
  5. NE Patriots
  6. MIN Vikings
  7. JAC Jaguars

  17. NY Giants
  18. IND Colts
  19. CHI Bears

Kicker Rankings 2026

If you’ve came here for fantasy football kicker insight, you might be in more trouble than I thought. I’m just including kicker rankings for shits n gigs and because I’m bored but you… you actually came here to research and figure out which kicker to draft?? Good lord!

If you aren’t new to fantasy football, you should know kickers are completely irrelevant and should always be drafted with your very last pick. NO MATTER WHAT! However, year after year, there is always that one dunce in the league who drafts a kicker in 10th round, immediately ending his season before it starts. Honestly, competitive leagues have completely scraped the kicker position so maybe it’s time for your league commish to do the same.

There’s no strategy to picking them, and it doesn’t matter if they are on a good or bad team either. A lot of leagues have even started to remove the kicker position entirely, for these reasons. Although we personally enjoy the randomness of the position. You can have the best kicker in the league get 3 points in the same week a guy named “Dicker the Kicker” drops a 20-burger, pure madness! So here it is… an absolutely pointless kicker ranking!

  1. Brandon Aubrey, DAL
  2. Ka’imi Fairbairn, HOU
  3. Jason Myers, SEA
  4. Cam Little, JAC
  5. Cameron Dicker, LAC
  6. Will Reichard, MIN
  7. Cairo Santos, CHI
  8. Chris Boswell, PIT
  9. Will Lutz, DEN
  10. Harrison Mevis, LAR
  11. Jake Bates, DET
  12. Tyler Bass, BUF
  13. Harrison Butker, KC
  14. Evan McPherson, CIN
  15. Chase McLaughlin, TB
  16. Andy Borregales, NE
  17. Tyler Loop, BAL
  18. Jake Elliot, PHI
  19. Joey Slye, TEN
  20. Trey Smack, GB
