First, get the complete analysis on the skill set of Oregon TE Kenyon Sadiq, a surefire first-round pick whose immediate impact depends on his landing spot. Then get to know Vanderbilt's Eli Stowers, whom Vinnie and Michelle also think has intriguing athletic potential to contribute sooner rather than later as a Day 2 pick. Ohio State's Max Klare is another tight end to watch, too. Will Indiana's Fernando Mendoza start as the No. 1 overall pick for the Raiders? The co-hosts debate that and consider whether he has much value as a rookie vs. being a strong pick for dynasty league before getting into their lukewarm feelings for Alabama's Ty Simpson.

Fantasy's 3 GREAT DRAFT DEBATES for 2026: Chase Brown vs. Derrick Henry, Malik Nabers vs. Nico Collins & MORE! Apr 13, 2026

Show notes

Sporting News' Vinnie Iyer and NFL.com's Michelle Magdziuk each choose their side on the hottest early draft debates at running back and wide receiver for fantasy football in 2026. While Michelle is on Chase Brown as the better back-end RB1 choice with the Bengals because of youth and upside,, Vinnie makes his case for Ravens rival Derrick Henry to keep on chugging along as a production and scoring machine. At wide receiver, Michelle provides evidence on Malik Nabers having the greater ceiling than Vinnie's pick of Nico Collins. Michelle also feels more comfortable taking another Bengal, Tee Higgins, as borderline WR1/WR2 than Vinnie's guy with the Saints, Chris Olave. Who's right in each case? Listen to find out!

Show notes

SportingNews.com's Vinnie Iyer goes through all 16 teams in the AFC and finds the worst fantasy football draft values and players to avoid at current cost in 2026 leagues.
