As I prepare to record Top-10 Takeaways, I want to prove to you that I am trying to keep the show capped at 10 of the biggest takeaways from the week. Here are my show notes as I sit down to record.
Takeaway 10: Jeremiyah Love Is All the Way Back. Buy.
Jeremiyah Love looks all the way back.
This is why we try to call the button on players like Love, Sadiq, and Boutte. You want to get them before they pop because, once the breakout happens, the price is already too high. Look at a player like Jordan Love: once the market catches up, it is too late.
Love is already showing why he was a much better prospect than TreVeyon Henderson and Jadarian Price.
Meanwhile, Rhamondre Stevenson leads the league in fumbles since 2024, averaging one fumble every 40 touches during that span. Through three games, Jadarian Price is averaging one every 16 touches.
That matters for fantasy.
The irony is that Henderson is so bad in pass protection and as a receiver that the Patriots appear willing to stomach the fumbles. Stevenson ran 19 routes to Henderson’s eight on Sunday. Henderson is turning into the worst-case version of Bhayshul Tuten, and both Price and Henderson now have serious risk factors standing between them and ever becoming true NFL bell cows.
Takeaway 9: Jaxon Smith-Njigba Is On a Straight Line to Becoming the Most Valuable Dynasty Asset in PlayerProfiler History
JSN is going to put up 10-128-2 against Washington for 35.36 fantasy points, lifting him to 104.06 points on the season — the fourth-most fantasy points ever through three games.
Meanwhile, Sam Darnold looked fully healthy in his return, throwing for 379 yards and four touchdowns despite two interceptions. The bigger story is that the script has flipped on the game environments in 2026. The Seahawks seemingly played all of 2025 with a lead. This year, they are beating up on Arizona and slugging it out with Washington and New England. Consequently, their pass rate is over 55% this season.
That trend matters.
Seattle’s defense was destined to take a step back after winning a Super Bowl, because they simply cannot pay everyone. The team must throw more this year, and JSN is on an absolutely insane trajectory.
