Hidden Gem Draft Targets for 2026
The mid-round picks that dominate every season.
A handful of mid-round picks DOMINATE every season.
Last year they were George Pickens, Travis Etienne, and Chris Olave. The year before that it was Puka Nacua and Sam LaPorta.
The pattern is always the same: talent in a new role, priced below where they'll finish.
Here are this year's candidates.
Matthew Golden
The Packers WR "competition" is Christian Watson and Jayden Reed. Golden had 5+ targets in just two games last year and averaged 12.3 fantasy points per game with zero touchdowns.
If he's given a full-time role, he's a top-24 WR easily. His current ADP is 10.07.
Jadarian Price
32nd overall pick to Seattle. The Seahawks RB depth chart is Zach Charbonnet, Emanuel Wilson, and George Holani. Price is the official Ken Walker replacement with a versatile skillset and electric playmaking ability.
Charbonnet is still expected to miss time. Price's ADP sits at 9.11. That's a steal for a potential lead back.
D'Andre Swift
Six straight top-24 RB seasons. Last year he posted career bests: PPR RB15, 1,087 rushing yards, and 9 rushing TDs. Year after year, he's an undervalued, strong RB2 in a good offense.
His ADP is 5.12. In a duo with Monangai, that's target PPR value.
