# Walt: Walt lists his favorite 2026 fantasy values — players he expects to outperform their Round 5-9 ADPs — including Luther Burden, David Montgomery, Jameson Williams, Bhayshul Tuten, Christian Watson, Rhamondre Stevenson, Jordyn Tyson, Parker Washington, Kyle Monangai, Blake Corum and Jordan Addison. He also backs Tuten as a rushing-title candidate and sees Stevenson leading New England's backfield in touches. **Claimed:** Aug 4, 2026 **Pundit:** Walt — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/walt **Outlet:** Walter Football — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/walter-football **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://walterfootball.com/fantasy2026values.php 17 checkable claims — 11 sleeper calls, 5 depth chart calls and 1 positional finishe — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 21 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 4 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > Washington is a great bargain in the middle of the sixth round, let alone at his current ADP of 8.02! *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims -
