Welcome to the third piece in a long, daily series: Reading the NFL Offseason Tea Leaves.  This series is meant to be a primer for anyone who’s not yet steeped themselves in the NFL’s offseason events. We’ll be touching on the fantasy implications for all 32 NFL teams in regards to:

• Coaching Changes
• Free Agency
• NFL Draft

The 32-day series will go in reverse order of DraftKings odds of winning the Super Bowl, which means today’s article will cover the Cleveland Browns who are +20,000 odds.

Article TL;DR: The Browns made a ton of changes this offseason and have built an offense that meets the needs of new Head Coach Todd Monken. They have added four offensive lineman, two WRs, two TEs, and a QB this offseason.  KC Concepcion is primed for a solid fantasy year. Him, Quinshon, and Fannin are the only names I have any interest in buying at their price points. There aren’t any other pieces that the tea leaves support us buying into for 2026. This is clearly a team that is building for the future.

In the last two days I posted the articles for the Arizona Cardinals and Miami Dolphins. I’ll keep a running list for those who are getting into this series deeper into the offseason.

NFL Draft

The 32-day series will go in reverse order of DraftKings odds of winning the Super Bowl, which means today’s article will cover the Miami Dolphins who are +35,000 odds.

Article TL;DR: De’Von Achane got paid this offseason and is set to see massive volume in the short-term for the Fins. He’s the 3rd highest paid RB in the NFL, and new HC Jeff Hafley made a point in his first presser that the team will win by running the ball. In Dynasty, the pass catchers are all dart throws and will not likely be the WR1 of the future. If one had to emerge as a long-term WR1 for the Fins, it’s Chris Bell. The tea from Miami was bitter going down, and the only notes I could taste were from the starting RB and QB.

Yesterday I posted the article for the Arizona Cardinals. I’ll keep a running list for those who are getting into this series deeper into the offseason.

Welcome to the first part in a long, daily series: Reading the NFL Offseason Tea Leaves.  This series is meant to be a primer for anyone who’s not yet steeped themselves in the NFL’s offseason events. We’ll be touching on the fantasy implications for all 32 NFL teams in regards to:

• Coaching Changes
• Free Agency
• NFL Draft

The 32-day series will go in reverse order of DraftKings odds of winning the Super Bowl, which means today’s article will cover the Arizona Cardinals who are +50,000 odds of winning the Lombardi.

Article TL;DR: What I want you to take away is that the Cardinals coaching situation has massively improved with the addition of Mike LeFleur. Mike LaFleur’s time in the McShanny (McVay & Shanahan) systems ensures we see innovative offensive philosophies implemented. The Cardinals have the weaponry to explode. They will need to keep their QB healthy and upright, and the offensive line is their one glaring weakness.

As we head into training camps and buzz begins to change values in dynasty, I give you players from each position group to buy-low.

Players featured in this article include Patrick Mahomes, Mac Jones, the Jets QBs, Mark Andrews, a slew of veteran RBs, and Travis Hunter.

Let’s chat about your buy-lows before training camp in the comments.

This week I examine the TEs drafted on Days 1 & 2 of the rookie class to identify who is most likely to be fantasy relevant for your redraft leagues in 2026. This class was loaded with TE talent, but how many will actually make an impact where you'll want them in your starting lineups this year?

Last week we had a great discussion in the comments of my article on the 5 Rookie WRs to Target. Feel free to AMA about the rookie TE class. I have watched game film or all-22 film on every single TE in this class, and yes, that includes guys like DJ Rogers and Dan Villari. I attended the Senior Bowl as media, interviewing players after practice and recording film of drills and scrimmages.

My Rookie Rankings are Dynasty leaning, but useful if you want to understand how I view the talent in the 2026 class. Thanks for reading, and let the questions flow!
