The 2026 NFL season kicks off with five months left to go, but here are my initial predictions for the best and worst fantasy fits for the next season. Tyson Tyson's impressive 2024 campaign kept him in the top-10 draft picks despite an injury-filled 2025 season at ASU. Tyson's target-commanding and efficiency could significantly impact his new team in New Orleans, where he will face competition from Chris Olave and Tyson. However, I'm not optimistic about the future of wide receiver Nick Branch, who ran a 4.35 mph and ranked 15th among all college receivers in EPA per target in 2025. Bell, who was second in receiving yards, seventh in yards per route run, and top-20 in yards after the catch per reception, also has a strong potential for new Bills coach Joe Brady and Josh Allen. Tate tested poorly at the NFL Combine and was targeted on less than 23 percent of his pass routes.
