Dynasty Market Report — July 25, 2026

The Lede

The 2027 pick market is getting gutted in real time, with first-rounders off 13% and second-rounders nearly 20% in a single week — a correction that's long overdue given how aggressively those assets were priced heading into the offseason. What's driving the flip side of that coin is equally telling: fringe contributors and depth pieces are spiking hard, signaling that managers are rotating out of speculative future equity and into present-day roster construction. Today's market is rewarding players, not promises.

Who's Rising

The Baltimore connection is impossible to ignore — Rasheen Ali (DME 1,030, +82.3%) and Devontez Walker (DME 1,161, +79.2%) are both surging off the Ravens' Chris Moore signing, which reads more as a signal of depth instability than genuine roster confidence, and that uncertainty creates opportunity for the incumbents. Jordan Whittington (DME 1,186, +70.7%) leads the riser board in raw value and is worth buying now — LAR's offensive infrastructure suits his skill set, and at 1,186 he's still priced like a dart throw rather than a genuine contributor. Raheim Sanders (DME 1,077, +73.7%) in Cleveland is the one to chase hardest if you can get ahead of casual managers who haven't processed his situation yet.

Who's Falling

The 2027 pick collapse is a buy-low window on the picks themselves only if you're a pure rebuilder with patience — at DME 3,650 for a first, the floor still isn't fully established. Brandon Aiyuk (DME 1,372, -5.6%) and Deebo Samuel (DME 1,076, -5.3%) are declining in tandem for obvious reasons: the SF offense is in managed chaos, and Deebo's free-agent status makes his number look increasingly charitable.

The Move

Sell your 2027 second (DME 1,810) today and target Jordan Whittington (DME 1,186) straight up if any contender will take it. You're buying a real asset at a 35% discount to the pick's current market price, and Whittington's DME trajectory suggests that gap closes fast once training camp reps become public.
