Who are the fantasy football players who could actually win you your league in 2026?

Ryan Wormeli, Pat Fitzmorris and Jake Ciely break down 10 players with legitimate league-winning upside, ranging from early-round stars to late-round sleepers who could massively outperform their ADP.

Kenneth Walker III could be headed for a monster workload in Kansas City, while Malik Willis brings one of the most intriguing late-round rushing ceilings at quarterback. Brock Bowers could take another massive step forward, Jonathan Brooks could emerge as Carolina's lead back, and Emeka Egbuka has a chance to become Tampa Bay's true WR1.

If you're preparing for your 2026 fantasy football draft, this is a show you don't want to miss.
