Ryan & Adam break down five fantasy football players going for far less than they're worth in 2026 auction drafts — the names to target before prices rise. We're bidding on value, not hype, and these five are sitting in the sweet spot right now: Dallas Goedert, Rome Odunze, Tank Bigsby, Tony Pollard, and Cyrus Allen. We cover each player's situation, why the auction market is sleeping on them, and the price range where we're comfortable pulling the trigger. Whether you're hunting a league-winner or building bench depth for cheap, these are the buys we're making this summer.

🎯 The 5 targets:

• Dallas Goedert — TE

• Rome Odunze — WR

• Tank Bigsby — RB

• Tony Pollard — RB

• Cyrus Allen — WR
