It’s the final fantasy football draft push before Week 1! Chris Welsh and Andrew Erickson answer your biggest last-minute questions, breaking down draft strategy, roster construction, keeper decisions, Superflex strategy and trades that could reshape your team before the 2026 NFL season kicks off.

Should you draft DK Metcalf over Michael Pittman Jr.? Is Bijan Robinson worth holding instead of pivoting to Ja’Marr Chase? Can you wait on quarterback in Superflex? Welsh and Erickson also weigh deals involving Saquon Barkley, Jayden Daniels, Ashton Jeanty and Jordan Addison while discussing Puka Nacua, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Kenneth Walker III, Chase Brown, Colston Loveland and more.
