We are 1 game into the NFL season and it feels SO good.
The full slate of Week 1 games starts Sunday, but there’s still some work to be done.
Here are 5 players you should sell high on in your fantasy leagues before Week 1:
#5 MarShawn Lloyd
He has 9 career NFL touches and a long history of injury issues.
Lloyd has never seen more than 130 touches in a season at any level (college/pros) and he’s played exactly 1 NFL game in 2 years.
The Packers O-Line is also not great and there’s no guarantee Lloyd keeps this job all season. You should sell-high while people still value him…
#4 Parker Washington
He’s the fantasy darling of this offseason.
Every report out of Jaguars camp about Washington was glowing. Whether it had to do with his actual skillset or his work ethic of being the first guy in every morning.
I have no issues with Washington being your 6th or 7th round fantasy pick. But it’s worth seeing if someone will overpay for him before Sunday…
#3 Drake London
I’m beginning to worry about this Falcons offense.
Both QBs have dealt with injuries during training camp and niether guy has wowed the coaching staff. I mean, the team didn’t decide a starter until days before Week 1.
London is extremely talented, but if you can flip him for AJ Brown, Nico Collins or George Pickens… you should…
#2 Cam Skattebo
Skattebo’s situation feels sketchy heading into 2026.
The team signed Najee Harris and they want him to see a significant role this year. Who knows what that means, but it leads me to believe Skattebo may not be a workhorse.
This would make some sense since Skattebo is coming off a serious injury and has a running style that could lead to more injuries.
I’d try to sell Skattebo before Week 1 comes and his value could drop more…
#1 Jonathon Brooks
He's entering his 3rd NFL season with 12 career touches and is already dealing with “soreness” in practice.
Brooks has 22 career rushing yards on 9 attempts and people are still paying for the 2023 college production before his 2 ACL injuries.
Brooks is still in a split backfield with Chuba Hubbard and the Panthers offense ranked 27th in scoring last year. I’d try to ship Brooks off while you still can…
