Eight Fantasy Football Busts to Sidestep in 2026 Drafts

FantasyPros’ Mike Fanelli lists eight players to avoid in 2026 fantasy drafts: Christian McCaffrey faces age and injury risk after heavy usage; De’Von Achane relies heavily on the receiving game and could struggle if QB play falters; Justin Jefferson’s production cooled last season amid target competition; Bucky Irving’s health issues and a new co-starter in TB temper upside; Jameson Williams remains volatile despite strong ceiling; Harold Fannin Jr. faces heavy competition for targets in Cleveland; Courtland Sutton’s targets appear to be shrinking after a Denver trade; Jake Ferguson’s upside is limited with Lamb healthy, despite moments of upside when Lamb was out.
