Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz

6 BOLD Fantasy Football FADES

Episode Summary

Six players I am NOT drafting at their current price in 2026 — and none of them are easy outs.

Episode Notes

Six players I am NOT drafting at their current price in 2026 — and none of them are easy outs. Every fade here has a top-6-round home-league ADP across Sleeper, ESPN and Yahoo, which means these are highly ranked players everyone else is happily clicking on. Why does the Saints backfield look way closer to a 50/50 split than people think? Why is the between-the-20s role a death knell for one popular RB? Which wide receiver is one mistake away from being off his team entirely — at a Round 2 price? And why am I out on BOTH Jets stars inside the top four rounds? Full arguments, the numbers behind them, and where I'd rather spend the pick instead.
