Preseason signals sharpen fantasy edge: Chicago’s usage hints for Lovelin and Luther Burton raise upside for Bears pass catchers behind DJ Moore, while the Titans lean on Chig Okonkwo with a clear path to first-team action. Bijan and Algier anchor ATL’s ground game, with Bijan’s ceiling high and Algier providing a sturdy floor. In KC and DET, trend lines point to value at the tight end and wide receiver spots, while a run-heavy setup across multiple teams boosts backfield options in week one.

Zero-RB remains a hot debate. The host emphasizes backfield depth—RB2s who can contribute as backups and pass catchers—while noting the volatility of early-season lineups. The preseason takeaway slate also highlights potential sleepers like Burton and Okonkwo in deeper formats, and reinforces how target-heavy offenses (PHI, GB, DEN) can lift pass-game fantasy assets when the main threats are accounted for.

Tyler Warren vaults into fantasy spotlight as a potential top-10 tight end after the Colts spent a top-15 pick on him. The crew sees him thriving in a Peyton-Steichen-era offense, leveraging quick, reliable targets and a wide array of alignments to juice PPR upside.

Evan Engram stands as the underneath option in a Jaguars attack that also features Sutton and Mims stretching the field. Kelce and Andrews remain steady anchors, while Hopkins is slated for a red-zone/vertical role that could tilt target distribution in BAL. Draft plans center Warren around ADP near 107, a bold-but-reasonable bet for a monster step forward.
