Episode Details

2026 fantasy football drafts heat up as Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs top the running back ranks, but James Cook and Kenneth Walker surge into the first-round conversation. Which RBs are true league winners, and who’s the smart value pick for your backfield this season?

Brian Peacock and Matt Williamson analyze the must-draft running backs, breaking down tier breaks after Saquon Barkley, Christian McCaffrey, and Jonathan Taylor. With sleeper picks like Jadarian Price, handcuff strategies for Mike Washington and Kaelon Black, and cautionary notes on Cam Skattebo and Bucky Irving, they map out pathways to fantasy dominance. Get expert insights on the Packers’ backfield shake-up, rookie RB upside, and how positional depth shapes your draft strategy. Is your next championship back hidden in these rankings?

Matt Williamson (former NFL and college scout) along with Brian Peacock (football analyst and radio personality) host this national daily NFL podcast with the most up to date news, analysis, trades, rumors, fantasy advice and NFL draft coverage!
