Week 1 of the NFL preseason continues with three more games on Friday evening as the 2026 Fantasy football ADP is beginning to take shape. Jahmyr Gibbs, Bijan Robinson, Ja'Marr Chase, Puka Nacua, Jonathan Taylor and Jaxon Smith-Njigba are the players going off the board first on average. It's generally all running backs and receivers in the first two rounds, but Bills quarterback Josh Allen is going off the board at pick No. 19 as Fantasy players have clearly valued him in a tier of his own as no other QBs are among the top 35 drafted on average.
Brock Bowers and Trey McBride are deadlocked as the first tight end coming off the board around pick No. 27. Who are the top 2026 Fantasy football sleepers, breakouts, busts and riskiest picks, and how should you approach your 2026 Fantasy football drafts?

Last year, the model accurately predicted that Colts quarterback Daniel Jones would fully realize his potential in his first year in Indy. He was the QB10 before suffering a season-ending injury in Week 14. Jones finished the year as the QB17 as the model had him as a top-15 Fantasy quarterback entering 2025.
Anyone who took a chance on him in Fantasy football drafts was surely rewarded when he was in the lineup. The same model has a proven track record providing Fantasy football tips, nailing Jonathan Taylor's monstrous season in 2021, calling Rachaad White's breakout in 2023 and identifying Isiah Pacheco as a bust in 2025. Additionally, it has called past Fantasy football sleepers like A.J.
Brown in 2020, Derrick Henry in 2019, Christian McCaffrey and Alvin Kamara in 2018, and Davante Adams in 2017. Now, SportsLine has simulated the entire NFL season 10,000 times and released its latest 2026 Fantasy football rankings for PPR and non-PPR leagues, along with plenty of sleepers, breakouts and busts.
