Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to the Dynasty Dude Podcast. I am
your host, Corey Evans. This week's content is centered around
bold predictions for twenty twenty six. I have part one
here for you right now, five bold predictions, and then
Part two is over on Patreon for my bonus episode
this week with five more additional bold predictions for this
upcoming season.
Speaker 2: I am not here for clicks.
Speaker 1: I'm here to deliver you concise, accurate, data driven analysis. However,
I can have some fun here with bold predictions that
I believe are still realistic not outlandish.
Speaker 2: Let's get right to it.
Speaker 1: My first bold prediction for twenty twenty six is that
Jackson Dart leads quarterbacks in rushing touchdowns. For some context,
Josh Allen quarterbacks in rushing touchdowns in twenty twenty five
at fourteen scores. Dart himself as a rookie in fourteen
games played posted in eighty six for eighty seven nine
rushing touchdown log, which was substantial in terms of draft
capital to the Giants. What he was as a product
out of the collegiate scene, Dart exceeded most, if not all,
expectations being thrown to the fire with a rebuilding Giant
squad diving a bit deeper. Jackson ranked top three among
quarterbacks in yards rushing for eighty seven and those nine
rushing touchdowns. Even more, he evaded pressure really well where
he's recognized said defensive blitzes or the pocket collapse scene,
ranking second in scramble run rate ten point one percent.
The nice part about Jackson Dart is that the passing
upside is still developing where we nobody can do as
a rusher. He can line up under center shotgun pistol.
It creates play action quarterback design run RPO opportunities for
Dart and John Harbaugh, new head coach of the Giants,
to work around.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: The downside or uncertainty is the durability Dart will put
his body in a line, which is evident from his
concussion or multiponcussions last year where he was cleared very
quickly and probably should not have passed that series of evaluations.
Speaker 2: He missed two games.
Speaker 1: In total concussion, but we can assume that's passed him.
Head coach John Harbaugh O C. Matt Nagi know what
they have in Dart and his abilities as a dual
threat passing rushing quarterback wide receiver room of league neighbors
Darius Slayton, Malechai Fields, Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin to name
the top of that pecking order, and then tight ends
and Isaiah Likely and Theo Johnson. This sets up Dart
with an average to slightly above average supporting cast, and
we know he can do it himself, which is by
my bold prediction is that he leads quarterbacks in rushing
touchdowns where his main competition figures A B. Josh Allen,
Jayden Daniels, Lamar Jackson or Jalen Hurts when it comes
to those rushing scores or trips to the end zone
Bolt petition number two, Omar and Hampton finish his top
five among running backs that would, in theory, put him
in the same conversation as Jamier Gibbs, B John Robinson,
Christian McCaffrey, Jonathan Taylor, even Devon h Chan that territory
if you will.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Hampton surely disappointed as a rookie last year, but it
was mostly due to injury, not production. Fracturing his left
ankle that forced him to miss eight contests, law with
a right ankle sprain upon's return that led to more
miss time was never fully available. A one twenty four
five point forty five four rushing effort, four point four
yards per rush, thirty two one nine receiving score, thirty
five targets in nine games played.
Speaker 2: Of course, if you excrapolate those stats given.
Speaker 1: More volume, the case can be made to be a
top five or for the second fantasy elite commodity at
running back New Oca Mike McDaniel, who has relied in
the past on a one running back system or at
least a tandem. I think or he mostert Devin Han
then Premier League Devione h Chan as a fantasy superstar with
the Dolphins. That could be Hampton and Keenan Mitchell, and
I don't see. Even though McDaniel has been raving about
Keenan Mitchell, the volume going Michell's direction, he's more lightning
to Hampton's thunder for the sense of the offensive attack
for the Chargers.
Speaker 2: Let's not forget either.
Speaker 1: Hampton was dominant in terms of his college pedigre out
North Carolina, with consecutive fifteen hundred plus yard rushing campaigns
on his resume. In school, He's six feet two, twenty
packs up punkch with four point four to six speed
that is coveted feature back tools, and the twenty second
overall draft capital tied to his name is significant, which
I believe we're going to see in full throttle for
twenty twenty six during handing sophomore year. And again the
vote prediction is that he finished his top five my
running backs. The beauty is you pay a top ten
to twelve price so you have room for profit. The
third voat prediction I have is that Chris Rodriguez outscores
base Shell Tuton. It's assuming half or for PPR formats.
My thought process here is purely based on cost. I
prefer to roster see Rod over Tutin based on Tuton's
ADP and expectations. Sure, I won't deny the intriguing skill
set and upside of Tooton out of Union Tech last
year as he showcased his rookie campaign in tandem with
Chavsten Junior. However, at five nine two oh nine, you're
relying more on speed and big playability with that four
point three to two speed with some work horse ability
or red zone utilization. He had two fumbles as a
rookie in twenty twenty five. Meanwhile, Chris Rodriguez see Robins,
brought in as a free agent to re unite with
head coach Liam Cohen from their time together in college
in Kentucky. Sea Rod is more of a bruiser, deceptive
burst in agility at five to eleven to twenty four.
He is recovering from foot surgery earlier this offseason. It
puts him behind the schedule of Toton, soaking up most
first team reps. Yet I otherwise think he could be
the favorite. That being Sea Rod four early down and
those red zone leverage and value touches. When it comes
to the fantasy side of things in Jacksonville's rushing attack,
Tuden could and might easily challenge that presumed role I'm
giving Sea Rod and be the lightning to Sea Rods thunder.
Not dissimilar from the conversation I just had about Amari
and Hampton KEITHA.
Speaker 2: Mitchell. However, I believe that at its best.
Speaker 1: In Liam Cohen's offense, Chris Rodriguez would be the first
second down grinder with some pass catching chops not much.
That's where two nick sels, and he could be the
receiver outlet among running backs outside of the Quinn Allen
of course in the Jaguars passing game. Let's look back
though another reason why I think Sea Rock can outscore
Touton purely based on role and skill set. Rodriguez spent
three seas with Washington, averaging four point eight four point
nine to four point four yards per carry with six
rushing touchdowns last scene in twenty twenty five. The issue
I have the only seven targets, so this could be
an RBBC that is a muddy backfield. However, if you
read between the lines, the reuniting of Cohen and Rodriguez
spells a lot of rapport already established there. I believe
that they both Rodriguez and Tuton have plenty of to
prove in. His backfield is virtually up for grabs and
at cost, Sea Rods seems to be the better investment
at this point in time. Instead of sinking a top
fifty to seventy five pick to secure Tudent services, I
actually pivoted off of Tuton in one of my twelve
team Super Flex Dynasty leagues and recently traded Tutin for
Kayin Williams with a few other pieces mixed in. I'd
rather have the proven, stable asset than the unknown of
Baschelle Tuton. Time for a quick great way back with
two more bold predictions for twenty twenty six. Before I

bowld predictions. My fourth Bowl prediction is that Jonah Coleman
ends up being the Denver running back to roster. It's
more of a statement than a stat base prediction. Hear
me out, though Archie Harvey yes impressed as a rookie
in twenty twenty five seven rushing touchdowns, five receiving touchdowns,
one hundred and forty six rushes, seven receptions, andrew ninety
six Jarfonans scrimmage. That's a really good rookie campaign. However,
it seemed more out of necessity than the actual role
or willingness Sean Payton had in mind for RJ.
Speaker 2: Because JK.
Speaker 1: Dobbins missed seven games last year because of that Liz
Frank injury. Yet he Dobbins was very effective per touch,
averaging just north the five yards per carry one hundred
and fifty three rushing attempts. The Dobbins Harvey duo figures
to be a recipe for success one A one B
attack to begin the year. The reason I'm putting Coleman
as being the deverning back to roster is that he's
the cheapest to draft or trade for, whether it's redraft
or dynasty, among the Broncos running backs, and he offers
a unique blend of both RJ.
Speaker 2: Harvey and JK.
Speaker 1: Dobbins in terms of skill sets, with rushing receiving capabilities.
Speaker 2: With the size at five eight.
Speaker 1: Two twenty to be utilized in all three downs different
personnel groupings, you get the picture, and he has strong
production out of college with both Arizona more recently Washington
the Knock or dent In At times, the Coleman outlook
is that he's not a good pass catcher. He had
an eighty four percent catch trait in school, so I'm
not buying that narrative. I think there is room to
grow when it comes to Jonah Coleman, and it would
not shock me at all. Hence my Bowel prediction if
Sean Paynham atual he turns to Joah Coleman to b
Denver's primary running back, a lot does ride on the
healthy JK.
Speaker 2: Dobbins along with RJ.
Speaker 1: Harve, you can expand his rushing effectiveness or if he's
going to be more of a satellite passing down specialist
in that Denver backfield rotation. And for what it sounds like,
Tyler Midday and Jealia McLaughlin are fighting for rosh spot
to be RB four on the Broncos running back depth charts.
So all that to say, Jonah Coleman I believe ends
up at some point being the Denver running back to
roster in Dynasty, both long term and in twenty twenty six.
And then last, but now least, Terry McLaurin leads wide
receivers and receiving touchdowns. Last year, DeVante Adams led that
category among wideouts with fourteen receiving scores. In twenty twenty five,
I believe that Lauren could do it with the healthy
J Daniels, a new OC and David blau hear me out.
McLaurin is posted receiving touchdown totals in his career up seven, four, five, five, four,
thirteen and.
Speaker 2: Three dating back twenty nineteen.
Speaker 1: Of course, a standout there being thirteen receiving scores, which
is a twenty twenty four I've been vocal and a
proponent of buying shares of discounted mclaurin's.
Speaker 2: Stock in dynasty after.
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty five was an outlier season for Terry in
a negative way. He only appeared in ten games played
through that lingering quad injury and ended his four year
streak of playing in seventeen games consecutively. That is quite
the run that Terry had. He had a career year
in twenty twenty four, as I alluded to a thirteen
receiving touchdowns and a seventy point one percent catch rates
and I believe that is going to be replicated and
if not matched, then surpassed in twenty twenty six, the
factors again being new of the coordinator, David Blouse said
he wants to give McLaurin at least ten targets per game.
That is great in terms of a game plan. Let's
see if it comes fruition or not. But it's clear
that Terry is the alpha in the wide out room.
And then yes, Jadon and Daniels is finally healthy entering
the year after dealing with a nie spring hampshireing injury
and that nasty dissocated elbow injury, all of which drailed
his twenty twenty five season. Jayden and mclauren only played
in two complete games together last season, so chuck it
up as a last year. Let's see what's in store
for Washington and a new revamped offensive scheme. I'm minus
mc lauren having a fantastic season and leading wide receivers
is a bowld prediction in receiving touchdowns this season that.
Speaker 2: Will do it.
