With most leagues entering Week 14, the hosts emphasize making win-now moves for contenders and selling aging vets for rebuilding teams. Chris Godwin, Zach Ertz, and other veterans can be acquired for late seconds if you need playoff depth. Rich warns that injuries to stars like Amon-Ra St. Brown or Jonathan Taylor can derail championship runs, so insulation trades are critical.

The crew identifies players poised to lose significant value heading into 2026. Tua Tagovailoa tops the list as a quarterback likely to enter backup territory, with his interceptions, lack of rushing upside, and uncertain future in Miami. Kyren Williams faces a statistical cliff with Blake Corum cutting into his workload, and Michael Pittman Jr. may struggle as Tyler Warren and Alec Pierce take targets in Indianapolis.

Rich loves Dalton Kincaid despite injury concerns, Matt defends Xavier Legette despite limited targets from Bryce Young, and Garret believes in Tyjae Spears once Tony Pollard departs Tennessee.
