5 Early-Round DRAFT TRAPS You Must AVOID | 2026 Fantasy Football Landmines: Nico Collins, Breece Hall, Bucky Irving & More (Ep. 2096) Jul 22, 2026

Show notes

Chris Welsh and Tera Roberts break down five early-round fantasy football draft traps that could derail your roster construction before your draft even gets rolling.

The focus is not just on “busts,” but on players whose draft cost, role uncertainty, offensive environment, or opportunity cost could push fantasy managers down the wrong path. The crew discusses why several players may be risky picks at their current prices, plus which players and positions could offer better value in the same draft ranges.

They also dig into how early-round wide receiver and running back decisions can affect the rest of your roster build, why pass volume matters, and how committees can cap upside.
