- 1 (00:45) **Episode Intro & Framework** - Ryan, Bogman, and Fitz introduce the episode: players to avoid, sell, or fade in dynasty leagues for 2026, with each host picking five players across four categories.
- 2 (01:44) **Veterans Who Could Lose Value: Baker Mayfield** - Fitz leads with Baker Mayfield as a sell in superflex, citing contract uncertainty, a disappointing 2025 season, and age 31.
- 3 (07:01) **Veterans Who Could Lose Value: Tony Pollard** - Bogman picks Pollard as a veteran whose value may decline after 2026, despite a potentially solid 2026 season.
- 4 (13:28) **Young Players Priced Too High: Rondale Gadsden II** - Fitz flags Gadsden as overvalued at TE11, citing a crowded Chargers tight end room and a boom-bust 2025 season.
- 5 (22:57) **Young Players Priced Too High: Tank Bigsby** - Bogman fades Bigsby, arguing he's closer to league average than a true starter and could be replaced by 2027.
- 6 (29:05) **Situational Landmines: Garrett Wilson** - Fitz flags Wilson as a player stuck in a bad situation, with Geno Smith at QB and a rookie likely in 2027, pushing his prime window to 2028.
