Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to the Dynasty Do podcast. I'm your host,
Corey Evans. This week's show is titled the Don't forget
About in twenty twenty six player list, whether it be
pre production or mainly for the sake of this content
and context injuries from twenty twenty five, I have five
players you should not forget about. Either prioritize trade four
now or by low if the window still exists in
your dynasty leagues. With that understanding and background in mind,
in a sense, take that price reduction while it lasts,
because injuries or durability question marks are one of the
best opportunities to acquire assets in dynasty fantasy football.
Speaker 2: Let's get right to it up first.
Speaker 1: I have Tank Dell, who tours ACL MCL, LCL, dissocated
his kneecap and even had a moniscus issue in December
at twenty twenty four, which resulted in him missing the
entire twenty twenty five season. Houston GM Nick Cassario expects
Dell to be available for offseason activities. In terms of
how full of a go he will be remains to
be seen, nonetheless encouraging news, encouraging updates Tank Dell is
twenty six, will be twenty seven this October.
Speaker 2: His first two years as a pro forty.
Speaker 1: Seven seven or nine seven seventy five targets. Is a
rookie that was twenty twenty three and fifty one sixty
seven three touchdowns eighty one targets as a sophomore in
twenty twenty four. Again missed all of twenty twenty five
because of that devastating knee injury late in the year
of December twenty twenty four. Now, size remains an ongoing
concern for Tank Dell makes him an injury risk, or
at least you get to calculate it in as a
factor at five point ten a bucks C five. However,
Houston's wide receiver depth is somewhat lacking Nico Collins locked in,
you'd assume Jadan Higgins makes that year two leap. Xavier
Hugginson is a solid role and cop anti player. Jalen
Nole didn't have the best utilization, but is in my opinion,
a really good prospect end player. While Christian Kirk is
a penning free agent man may not return with the Texans,
so Tank Dell is needed here, especially if CJ. Shroud
is either going to have his fifthyear option picked up
and or extended. Tank Dell and ts Stroud have been
a very strong duo when both healthy and on the field.
In terms of what's to pay for Dell right now,
a first seems far too lucrative or expensive, A second
seems fair. A third might be your bilot window given
all the injury history, and has continued injury risk because
of the aforementioned baldy frame and already what he's dealt
with at the pro level. Upnext for you, don't forget
about in twenty twenty six player Trey Benson sustaining a
knee injury meniscus in Week four twenty twenty five that
required surgery and landed him on injury reserve. It's discouraging
based on his college injury history that devastating same play ACL, MCL, meniscus,
and hamstring tendon tear all in.
Speaker 2: One just a brutal injury.
Speaker 1: Nonetheless, Benson is still only twenty three, younger than some
prospects in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: He'll be twenty four in July.
Speaker 1: He's rushed ninety two times for four to fifty one
yards in the ground and one rushing score while adding
nineteen receptions for about twenty three no touchdowns receiving in
seventeen pro games played since being a third round pick
out of Filver State in twenty twenty four, and Trey Benson,
based on the size, speed, agility, all the analytics that
worked in his favor.
Speaker 2: Was a prize prospect. They're still on tep potential here.
Speaker 1: Fam Knight and Amari de Ricado are both RFAs, meaning
restricted free agents who could very well be brought back
and or have their tenders matched if in the open
market to Arizona, while James Connor is entering his age
thirty one campaign. James Connor was injury riddled in twenty
twenty five, but has had a pretty clean medical history
in terms of durability otherwise usually fights during injuries. So
Trey Benson's path is not crystal clear in terms of
twenty twenty six roll. That being said, with a new
coaching staff inbound, which is not yet determined who the
new head coaches at this time recording, there's a lot
that could change four or against Trey Benson in terms
of not forgetting about him and what I pay right
now with free agency and the NFL Draft upon us.
I would say in mid to late second or a
third is fair game for Trede Benson. There is no
world in which I'll pay a first for him because
there has been some prospect fatigue and or durability concerns
that have surfaced even dating back to his time in college.
But there is still plenty of intrigues surrounding trade Benson
and Arizona, which could be a whole new mind mold
offensively in twenty twenty six and beyond. So keep a
very close eye on matt developing situation. Up next is
Braylon Allen. Definitely don't forget about Braylon Allen suffered a
season ending MCL's brain in his left knee on a
kickoff return of all things, during week four of the
twenty twenty five campaign, the result in him being placed
on injury reserve. He was twenty one, just turned twenty
two this month in January. We talk about a young
prospect with a longevity curve that is favorable for the
running back position. Younger than most running back prospects, declaring
in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: He has played in.
Speaker 1: Twenty one career games as a pro with production of
one ten four ten and three on the ground at
three point seven yards per rush and twenty one receptions
for eight bucks sixty five and.
Speaker 2: One score thirty targets.
Speaker 1: Remains a bet on youth, upside and overall skill set
at six one two thirty five with a well rounded
set of tools. As both the Russian receiver out of Wisconsin.
He was a Day three pick, fourth round selection when
he did declare. Now, the huge factor here for Braylon
Allen or even Isaiah Davis is that Breeze Hall is
a Penning free agent. Remains up in the air if
the Jets will franchise Tag or look to extend brees Hal.
It's been pretty evident that Breeshall has not been happy
with the Jets, and he's posted plenty on social media
indicate that he potentially wants out those details and that
environment is out of her control. It's ultimately up to
Breeze Haul in the Jets organization and what the running
back market as a free agent develops into. But I
will say that Braylan Allen compared to rookie sophomore years
to now, there is certainly a dip in value, at
least perceived stock, and I'm looking to swoop in wherever
possible for a third, and quite honestly, if I need
help a run and I have a late second, I'd
even be willing to throw in a second and a
third to get it done, because again, the youth just
turned twenty to the opportunity if Breese Hall does not
return could be substantial, and worst case, we know that
if Hall does return, for the most part, it was
a one to a one B situation with Hall and Allen,
with Isaiah Davis bing RB three. So there's a lot
to like about Braylan Allen, who should not be written
off in don Cee circles because of that unfortunate MCL's
brain that he suffered that ended his season early in
week four. Time for quick breakup, me back with two more.

Another player to not forget about to swoop in now
and acquire while the opportunity still exists.
Speaker 2: Jonathan Brooks, He is so viold there's a lot of.
Speaker 1: Risk baked in here, but the pros cons and or
risk award is far more favorable if you want to
buy in now. He tours ACL right ACL within a
thirteen month timeframe twice twenty twenty three to Texas in
school and then December of twenty twenty four, during his
rookie season with the Panthers, devastating blow hard to recover
from such a difficult mindset to bounce back, let alone
the same knee two different occasions. He is, however, expected
to return after missing all twenty twenty five and twenty
twenty six.
Speaker 2: Brooks says even told reporters that he is hopeful to be.
Speaker 1: Help feed by mini camp, which would be a welcome
sign to fantasy players like myself we from stashed in
a few leagues.
Speaker 2: He's slated to be twenty three in July.
Speaker 1: It is only twenty two, which sort of like Braylan
Allen or even Trede Benson to a certain extent, is
younger than some, if not most running back prospects in
twenty twenty six, So that is something to consider. You're
buying essentially a cheaper discount version of a rookie because
Brooks hasn't really had an impact at the pro level
due to injuries. In fact, three career games played, nine
rushes twenty two yards only two point four yards per rush,
and three perceptions for twenty three yards only three targets
abbreviated sample size, of course, yet we can't forget the
pedigree former second round pick out of Texas forty six. Overall,
a lot to be excited about with Brooks and his
potential in this now revamped, ascending Carolina Panthers offense with
Dave Canallis under the helm. Now ric O'Donnell is an
X factor here, penning free agents in twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: Six who may may not earn more money and a
large role elsewhere.
Speaker 1: Tuba Hubbard was solid to start the year, miss time
injury and then took over some lead back or change
you pay's duties down the stretcher Carolina. But let's make
no mistake that Jonathan Brooks still has a huge footprint
in this offense, or at least theoretical role if sure
big if he can stay healthy and bounce back from
the double ACL tear within a year and a month
time frame, which, sure, it's a hard road recovery, but
with today's sports medicine, I don't doubt that Brooks could
at least be an eighty to ninety percent version of himself.
Maybe not the same prospect of Texas, but still there's
a lot to unfold for his NFL career before labeling
him a bust or injury prone. Now, in terms of cost,
what would I spend now? I would say a second
spot on a first if you're a big believer, makes sense,
but it's also a premium when he's had two a
cl tears a third. If you can acquire it by
all means, go for it. But that seems a bit
on the lighter side. And if you've had Brooks stashed
over this time and someone comes knocking and you want
to cash out for a proven player and or draft pick,
that's also something to consider. Yet, what I'm saying here
is that Jonathan Brooks is someone you can't forget about
for twenty twenty six and last, but not least more
of a proven stud than a question mark or afterthought.
It is Garrett Wilson who endured a disappointing twenty twenty
five campaign because of a lingering nie brain from Week
six that was reaggravating in Week ten and ultimately led
to wilson beans shut down on a reserve to close
out the season. He is only twenty five, will be
twenty six in July. Prime His career just needs a
quarterback to elevate his all around county stats, which I'll
talk about here soon has not really been an issue.
He's putting up amazing statistics. It's a matter of consistency
because of subparer quarterback play. Now prior to abbreviated twenty
twenty five effort, which was only eight games played. Wilson
went thirty six through ninety five four scores for the
nine targets. Garrett was a model of consistency with three
consecutive one thousand plus yard receiving seasons. Let's rewind twenty
twenty two a log of eighty three, eleven, three and four,
one hundred and forty seven targets PPR Wide Out twenty one,
twenty twenty three as a sophomore ninety five ten two
three touchdowns, one hundred and sixty eight targets PPR Wide
Out twenty six and thirty years are pro. He was
one oh one eleven zho four and seven scores one
hundred fifty four targets. That was in twenty twenty four
as the PPR wide receiver ten so prior to the outlier,
which was his past year in twenty twenty five, Garrett
Wilson was right on that map of being a wide
receiver two or a wide receiver one in ten or
twelve team leagues. I am still all in on the
talent and situation In terms of pure opportunity for the Jets.
He's not someone you should forget about. I would spend
a first in twenty twenty six or twenty twenty seven
on Garrett Wilson to get him on my team and
buy this dip. And fortunately, because of the bad quote
unquote season in twenty twenty five, a mid first might
be able to get it done. And early first compared
to upcoming prospects. Sure as a conversation, but any mid
to eight first for Garrett Wilson, I'm going to spend
that and not think twice about it.
Speaker 2: Thank you all for listening.
Speaker 1: A quick recap of my Don't Forget About Player twenty
twenty six list, Tank Dell, Trey Benson, Braylen Allen, Jonathan Brooks,
and Garrett Wilson. Thanks again, until next time. This is
the dines you're drinking out. Hope you all the rest
of the week and I will talk to you soon.
Speaker 2: See you
