2026 Draft Preview

By TLFL Staff May 13, 2026

Jeremiyah Love sits atop the available board, but the first five picks can swing quickly based on appetite for running back upside.

Current 2026 fantasy rankings suggest the elite redraft tier is already mostly rostered in TLFL. That pushes the top of this draft toward high-upside rookies and young depth pieces.

Projected Top 5

  1. Pick 1
    Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jeremiyah Love RB, ARI | board rank 15
  2. Pick 2
    Kansas City Chiefs: Jadarian Price RB, SEA | board rank 36
  3. Pick 3
    Baltimore Ravens: Quinshon Judkins RB, CLE | board rank 44
  4. Pick 4
    Carolina Panthers: Carnell Tate WR, TEN | board rank 53
  5. Pick 5
    Cincinnati Bengals: Bhayshul Tuten RB, JAX | board rank 59

Board Read

Love is the clean headliner because he combines early-career runway with a running back profile that can matter immediately in TLFL. Jadarian Price and Quinshon Judkins keep the board RB-heavy, while Carnell Tate is the premium receiver pivot if the early teams prefer youth at wideout.
