Big Board Explained (Players 61-90)

August 24, 2026 - 05:40

The latest installment of the PPR Big Board series digs into the middle rounds, where the draft board gets murky and opinions start to split. Steve Hungarter, Harley Schultz, HC Green, Kevin Tompkins, and Doug Orth break down the next 30 names on the list, from 61 to 90, and they don't always agree.

This is the part of the draft where you are not looking for a sure thing. You are looking for a player with a clear path to volume or a specific skill that translates to fantasy points. The panel lays out the strongest reasons to grab each guy, but they also play devil's advocate. For every running back with a clear starting job, there is a concern about the offensive line or the passing game. For every wide receiver with breakout potential, there is a question about target competition.

The format stays the same as previous entries. Each player gets a quick "why you should" and a "why you should not" from the group. The idea is not to tell you who to draft, but to give you both sides so you can make the call based on your own roster and risk tolerance.

Some of the names in this range will surprise you. A few are veterans who have been reliable for years but might be hitting a wall. Others are younger players who flashed late last season and are now getting hype that might be a little too hot. The panel tries to cut through the noise and look at the actual situation.

If you are drafting in the sixth or seventh round, this is the group you need to know. The difference between hitting on one of these picks and missing can change your whole season. The full breakdown is worth a read before you head into your draft.
