Summer is upon us, and the fantasy football grind is just warming up. Now listen: It’s way too early to be drafting in your re-draft leagues. This time of year is dedicated to best ball junkies (hello, I am one) and dynasty nerds, but just like you, we’re elbows deep in analysis to better prepare for our fantasy drafts later this summer.
Most of the dust has settled in terms of offseason player movement, so we have a clearer picture of the fantasy landscape. The only key fantasy position with some landing spots still unresolved is running back, where Dalvin Cook, Leonard Fournette, Ezekiel Elliott and Kareem Hunt are among the biggest names yet to find new homes. We’ll need to remain nimble as we gather news throughout the next couple of months to finalize our draft boards.
We can cross that bridge when we get there, but here are six players I think are being overrated or underrated whom I’ll be watching closely as the offseason progresses.
Overvalued
Kenneth Walker III, RB, Seattle Seahawks: This one bums me out because I liked Walker last year. He ended the season with just over 1,000 yards rushing and nine TDs, finishing as RB17 in fantasy points per game as a rookie. In spite of that production from Walker, the Seahawks used a second-round draft pick on pass-catching UCLA RB Zach Charbonnet, who has impressed early in the offseason. You don’t draft an RB that early to let him ride the pine, so they clearly expect Charbonnet to be a contributor to this offense. They also added a first-round wide receiver in Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who will have a role as well. There are a lot of mouths to feed here, so I have Walker just inside of my top 20 at RB.
