Training Camps are open across the NFL, and the reports from early practices are coming out fast and furious. I probably sound like a broken record at this point, but be sure to take all of these reports with a grain of salt. For example, the report on Sunday was that Jadarian Price is being targeted “a lot” in passing drills early in camp. Obviously, the Seahawks want to work on the passing game with Price. He had only 15 receptions in his college career, so the fact that he’s active in these drills doesn’t mean he’s going to be a fantasy hero in the passing game. It just means that they’re working on it with him, and hopefully he’s impressing the coaching staff enough to earn snaps in passing downs. Fantasy and dynasty managers love training camp headlines, and they’re extremely important, but interpreting them correctly is what makes champions. 

Training camp headlines from beat reporters are one thing, but they mean even more when they come from the player themselves. Daniel Jones said he is cleared to play and going to be a “full go to start training camp.” Jones suffered a torn Achilles in Week 14 last season, but has worked hard on his rehab and appears to be ahead of schedule! We don’t quite know what “full go” means for Jones yet, and that’s going to be important for his fantasy value. He relied on his legs for a lot of his production last season, and his running ability was the catalyst to his late-career breakout. I imagine he’ll need to be very careful as he ramps up to actual game action, but this is great news for Jones managers, and the rest of the players on the Colts. 

In other quarterback news, Jacoby Brissett finally got the reworked contract that he was holding out for. He’ll make $15.5 million in base salary this season, and he can make up to $21 million via incentives (a significant raise over the $4.88 million he was scheduled to make). He’s still scheduled to hit free agency next year, and will be playing to earn a long-term contract, either in Arizona or somewhere else. Brissett helped Trey McBride and Michael Wilson to big fantasy seasons last year, despite a lack of wins in the standings. With Jeremiyah Love on the roster now, he has plenty of options to get the ball to, but I’m worried about the timer hitting zero at some point this season for Brissett. We’ve seen him have success in spurts several times throughout his career, but sustained success has always eluded him. 

Backfield usage and pecking orders are always going to be something to follow this time of the year. Over the past week, we’ve heard reports of Woody Marks being more involved in the Houston backfield than once expected. David Montgomery has been looked at as a great redraft option, and a win-now option in dynasty, but those Woody Marks shares may not be toast quite yet. We’ve also heard that Blake Corum will “be a big factor” from head coach Sean McVay and that Jordan James is the number two RB in San Francisco to open up camp. Keep an eye on these headlines in the weeks to come, as running back depth charts are crucially important, especially in dynasty leagues.

While the Colts got great news from Daniel Jones this week, they also received a bit of bad news for Alec Pierce. Pierce will start training camp on the active/PUP list as he’s still recovering from off-season ankle surgery. Pierce earned a massive contract from Indianapolis this spring. He had a breakout season last year with Jones under center, but he’s starting this season on the wrong foot. Let’s dive into Pierce’s dynasty value and his outlook for the 2026 season and beyond. 

Two summers ago, Pierce barely had any dynasty value, nearly falling outside of the top 25. This summer, he flirted with being a top 50 pick at times. He’s fallen down a bit now, going off the board at WR34 and 71st overall in July drafts. The DLF rankings are a bit more pessimistic about Pierce, ranking him at WR42 and 88th overall. The DLF Rankings never got as high on Pierce as the ADP did. He topped out as the 87th overall player back in May, nearly 30 spots lower than his ADP peak this summer. 

Pierce’s start on the active/PUP list is a setback, but it wasn’t unexpected, and it isn’t the reserve/PUP list. Pierce isn’t expected to be ready to get back on the field until the end of training camp, at the earliest. While his week one status has to be in question right now, there’s no reason to expect a long absence for Pierce, yet. If his path back to the field is slower than expected, I’d hope that his ADP starts to fall to reflect his expert ranking more than it has so far this summer. I’m excited for Pierce in this offense, if all things click for him, he could have an even better season than his WR28 finish last year. He clearly has WR1 upside, but he’s too risky to invest that much into him. I’d consider selling him before his ADP value falls with more negative reports.

Dynasty fantasy football is often portrayed as a game of statistics, projections, and market values, yet behind every trade offer sits a manager making decisions through their own unique psychological lens. By applying Carl Jung’s colour personality theory – commonly represented through the four colour archetypes of blue, green, yellow and red- we can gain a deeper understanding of how different managers approach trading, based on their personality. Understanding these personality-driven tendencies can provide a valuable edge in dynasty trading, helping managers tailor their approach, identify motivations, and ultimately complete more successful deals.

The first article in the series will focus on the blue personality type (The Negotiator) – dynasty managers who thrive in the art of negotiation, ensuring they maximize the amount of value obtained in every deal.

Maximizing value – the blue dynasty manager is known for their counter-offer type negotiation style, which ensures they obtain maximum value within each trade. By pushing for extra on every deal, it builds the value of the blue dynasty manager’s roster and creates greater flexibility in the long-term.

Avoids panic buying or selling – the cautious, methodical nature of the blue dynasty manager ensures they avoid panic buying or selling. The blue dynasty manager is level-headed, with the emotional stability to avoid rash decisions, which otherwise could result in a trade that is misaligned against the market value.

Utilizing numerous data sources – due to the analytical nature of the blue dynasty manager, they often use various resources and data points to build up a detailed overview of an asset. By looking at a player from a number of different perspectives it gives a clearer view of the true asset value and resulting trade action.

Value-focused over player-focused – the blue dynasty manager has an innate ability to detach feelings and focus on the value of an asset, allowing them to avoid hype or name value of an asset. The cold, logical approach ensures the trade is more likely to be aligned with the market and therefore a lower risk of a huge loss of value in the long term.

Where a deal is close in market value, the blue dynasty manager would prefer a more proven, stable asset like Ladd McConkey, than an asset with a greater range of outcomes and risk like Carnell Tate – DLF Trade Analyzer
