We're no longer weeks but simply days until the start of the 2026 NFL season. That means Fantasy football draft season is hitting its peak. Even with PPR formats factored in, running backs are still going off the board extremely early according to the latest Fantasy football ADP.
Jahmyr Gibbs (ADP of 1), Bijan Robinson (2), Jonathan Taylor (5), Christian McCaffrey (7) and James Cook (9) are generally being picked in the first round, while Ja'Marr Chase (3) is the first receiver going off the board. Whether you're hunting for a 2026 Fantasy football top 150 you can trust, potential 2026 Fantasy football breakouts, sleepers, and busts, or position-specific 2026 Fantasy football rankings, be sure to see what the 2026 Fantasy football draft bible at SportsLine has to say.

Head to SportsLine now to see the 2026 Fantasy football draft bible. The Fantasy football draft bible features Nagel's top busts relative to their ADP: Jeremiyah Love, Arizona Cardinals (ADP: No. 24): Last year, we put prized rookie Ashton Jeanty of the Raiders in this spot and Jeanty, who was a late first-round pick in most leagues, failed to deliver on his ADP. It wasn't a total disaster as some late-season involvement in the passing game netted an RB No. 11 finish at 14.4 ppg but that was a letdown to managers who grabbed him with their firs pick.
Although Love's ADP has dropped to the late second round, perhaps in part because of Jeanty's trajectory, we're fading him for similar reasons. The defense-needy Cardinals selected him No. 3 overall and the moribund club is favored to lead the NFL in losses. Blocking and trailing game scripts will likely be key hurdles.
