De'Von Achane, Josh Jacobs, Drake Maye, Chase Brown & MORE: Fantasy's 10 BIGGEST BUST candidates for 2026

·31 min·2 clips

De'Von Achane is the running back five, but Miami may be a bottom-five offense without Tua.

The show starts with a warning. Michelle Majuk and Vinny Iyer frame 2026 fantasy busts as players who may disappoint because of situation and cost, not because the hosts doubt the talent. They set up a top 10 list of bust candidates for the upcoming season, and Josh Jacobs plus Devon A. Chan come up right away in that discussion. The episode stays practical. The hosts are not doing a blanket takedown; they are looking for players whose situations feel sticky and whose draft cost may be running ahead of the likely production. Sponsor reads from Indeed and Home Chef break up the rhythm, but the conversation keeps returning to the same core idea: a player can still be good and still be a bad fantasy buy if the workload, receiving role, red-zone work, or price point leaves too little room for value. Later, the hosts underline that it is hard to trust a player at that cost, and that likability should not be confused with draft value. The tone stays straightforward and skeptical. It feels like a fantasy analyst conversation focused on risk, role, and market price rather than hype, and the episode is built for listeners who want to avoid overpaying for names with shaky paths to production.
