Fantasy football analysts Mike Boyajian and Christian assessed six players who may be overvalued in 2026 drafts. The evaluation specifically highlights concerns regarding Cam Skattebo, Justin Jefferson, and Josh Jacobs. For Skattebo, experts point to a reliance on heavy run schemes and competition for snaps within the New York Giants' backfield. Jefferson, now paired with Kyler Murray on the Minnesota Vikings, is viewed with caution due to reports of Murray prioritizing chemistry with Jordan Addison over the veteran receiver. Jacobs faces uncertainty in Green Bay as he awaits potential league discipline regarding a legal matter while coming off a statistically regressive season. These analysts recommend waiting until later rounds to acquire these players, noting that their current draft positions may not reflect the risks associated with their respective team situations.
