Deep-League Draft Targets for 2026 Fantasy Football

This article highlights potential deep-league draft targets for the 2026 fantasy football season, specifically for 14-team leagues with half-PPR scoring. Players must have an average draft position (ADP) after 154 to be considered.

Khalil Shakir is noted for his ability with the ball, despite concerns about target competition following DJ Moore's addition to the Buffalo Bills. Shakir ranked last in average depth of target among wide receivers but showcased his skills during a recent scrimmage, catching a long touchdown. His offseason focus on improving his speed and stride could lead to more opportunities this season.

De’Zhaun Stribling, drafted by the 49ers, is another player to watch. He has the potential for a significant role in San Francisco's offense, especially after Ricky Pearsall's injury. Lastly, Keaton Mitchell is highlighted for his impressive rushing efficiency, although his receiving stats have been limited. There are expectations for him to develop more in the passing game under offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel.
