Nathan Jahnke· Aug 15, 2026
An unsigned PFF preseason fantasy recap that draws forward-looking conclusions from preseason usage: Quinshon Judkins should outperform his low-end RB2 draft cost, Dalton Kincaid is a good late-round tight end target, Cam Skattebo is hard to justify at his current ADP given the Giants' three-man committee, Isaiah Bond is Cleveland's top wide receiver backup, and Odell Beckham Jr. and Braxton Berrios sit no higher than sixth in the Giants' receiver pecking order.
“Judkins is being drafted as a low-end RB2, but his expected volume gives him a strong chance to finish as a mid-range RB2.”

- Fantasy Bust CallsCam SkatteboNew York GiantsAug 15, 2026

- Sleeper CallsQuinshon JudkinsCleveland BrownsAug 15, 2026
Quinshon Judkins to outplay his draft cost (low-end RB2)

- Sleeper CallsDalton KincaidBuffalo BillsAug 15, 2026
Dalton Kincaid to outplay his draft cost
“Kincaid still might not play as much as a typical fantasy starting tight end, but this usage suggests his playing time could increase from last season... Kincaid is an ideal target for fantasy managers who wait at tight end.”
Not settled yet. This is graded once the result is in.
Odell Beckham Jr. to be 6th on the depth chart
“That suggests Beckham and Berrios are no higher than sixth on the depth chart at this point.”
Not settled yet. This is graded once the result is in.
- Depth Chart CallsIsaiah BondCleveland BrownsAug 15, 2026
Isaiah Bond to be 4th on the depth chart
