The Podfather has identified one of his favorite offseason buys in dynasty.

Oronde Gadsden II has all the makings of a “worth every penny” player in dynasty formats, according to the one-and-only Podfather, who cites the strong upside of the second-year TE playing under OC Mike McDaniel:

• Big and athletic enough (barely) to command major usage as a prototypical “move” tight end

• Tethered to quarterback Justin Herbert for the long term

• No. 1 EPX on PlayerProfiler in 2025

• The Chargers run out the best tackles in the NFL; they limit Gadsden’s blocking responsibility

• Only one 1,000-yard receiver is currently on the roster (Ladd McConkey, 2024)

Greg Dulcich Truthers Ready to be Hurt Again

2 days ago

Dolphins GM Jon-Eric Sullivan is resurrecting Greg Dulcich in fantasy football with a recent podcast statement, “(Dulcich) had a really good back-end of the season, and I want to see if he can build on that.”

Greg Dulcich is returning to the Dolphins following a strong late-season performance that highlighted the elite pass-catching prowess he previously displayed at UCLA and as a rookie. Known for his versatility, the fourth-year tight end has played nearly half of his career snaps in the slot and is expected to thrive in Miami’s revamped offensive scheme.

This is the second time Dulcich’s name has been mentioned as a key cog… (cont’d)

4. Dalton Kincaid will be playing through a torn PCL

Dalton Kincaid looks more like Dalton Schultz by the day, and this helps to explain it. Kincaid has been revealed as the ultimate low ceiling, low floor tight end.

3. Christian McCaffrey’s workload to be managed + Jordan James in-line to be McCaffrey’s handcuff

A consensus is forming that James is gold, Guerendo is toast. Athletic or not, he RB2 in San Francisco is very valuable. This news mattered.

2. Desean Watson is not dead yet

I was jarred by this, but the fact is Deshaun Watson can’t be wished away. At age 30 with mobility, he also may not be dust and absolutely needs to be aggressively rostered in dynasty.

1. Jonathan Brooks is going to be ready for camp

Brooks was an impressive all-purpose back at Texas. If healthy, he will challenge Chuba Hubbard before the end of the 2026 season. His dynasty value has only one direction: Up.

Patrick Mahomes ahead of schedule?

Nate Taylor of ESPN insists the Chiefs are encouraged about Patrick Mahomes’ knee surgery recovery. He is reportedly “on track to participate — even in a limited capacity — in the team’s voluntary offseason practices” after the NFL Draft.

Mahomes is smashing ACL/LCL rehab timeline and could be ready for Week 1. The key indicator is whether he starts camp on the PUP list, which currently seems unlikely. Mahomes just needs to avoid the PUP list at camp, and his dynasty value returns to pre-injury levels.

Don’t overthink this one. Buy the dip now, because it always feels great to secure a cornerstone QB before the value window closes, especially in 2QB/superflex dynasty leagues.

Washington Commanders Know McLaurin Needs Help

ESPN’s John Keim believes the Commanders “want to add someone who can be a strong complement” to alpha wide receiver Terry McLaurin.

While the Commanders recognize Brandon Aiyuk’s desire to reunite with Jayden Daniels, John Keim reports that a trade is unlikely, suggesting the team may instead pivot toward a low-risk “prove-it” deal or the NFL Draft. This cautious approach follows Washington’s unsuccessful pursuits of veteran wideouts Alec Pierce and Romeo Doubs, who ultimately committed to the Colts and Patriots, respectively.

Mike McDaniel Lauds Keaton Mitchell’s Speed and Acceleration

The Athletic’s Daniel Popper writes that RB Keaton Mitchell’s “acceleration and threatening speed” will be a critical asset for the Chargers offense in 2026.

Keaton Mitchell’s two-year, $9.3 million deal pairs an explosive runner (5.8 YPC) with Mike McDaniel’s system, drawing favorable comparisons to the highly efficient De’Von Achane. Though Omarion Hampton is slated to lead the backfield, Mitchell is expected to see enough specialized touches to provide flex value in what should be a run-heavy Chargers offense. While Keaton starts as a change-of-pace option, his elite efficiency gives him legitimate Top-20 fantasy RB upside if Hampton faces further injury setbacks in 2026.
