Dynasty stock report · June 2026.
June is the most honest month in dynasty. The draft hype has worn off, OTAs leak just enough depth-chart truth to move waivers, and the managers still active in your league are the ones you will actually be trading with all season. So instead of telling you what we think the market should do, this report reads what the market is doing — straight from Sleeper's add/drop counts across live dynasty leagues.
What managers are adding
| # | Player | 24-h adds |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Zavion Thomas WR · CHI | 10,674 |
| 2 | Greg Dulcich TE · MIA | 6,562 |
| 3 | Matt Hibner TE · BAL | 4,984 |
| 4 | Cyrus Allen WR · KC | 4,536 |
| 5 | MarShawn Lloyd RB · GB | 4,293 |
| 6 | Caleb Douglas WR · MIA | 4,160 |
| 7 | Seth McGowan RB · IND | 3,904 |
| 8 | Taylen Green QB · CLE | 3,456 |
Three of the top six adds are rookie or sophomore wide receivers on new teams — Zavion Thomas in Chicago is being added at nearly twice the rate of anyone else on the wire. The pattern is classic post-OTA: beat-writer buzz about first-team reps converts directly into waiver claims. None of these players cost more than a bench spot today, and that is exactly the point — June adds are lottery tickets priced at face value.
The sneaky one is MarShawn Lloyd. Green Bay's backfield has been a committee on paper every June and a two-man show every December. If the offseason chatter about a leaner rotation is right, a four-figure add count now will look cheap by Week 4.
What managers are dropping
| # | Player | 24-h drops |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Darren Waller TE · FA | 5,607 |
| 2 | Zach Ertz TE · FA | 4,113 |
| 3 | Brashard Smith RB · KC | 3,710 |
| 4 | Jonnu Smith TE · FA | 3,409 |
| 5 | Devin Singletary RB · NYG | 3,222 |
| 6 | KeAndre Lambert-Smith WR · LAC | 3,042 |
| 7 | Kareem Hunt RB · FA | 2,660 |
| 8 | Quinn Ewers QB · MIA | 2,655 |
The drop column is a veteran tight end graveyard: Waller, Ertz and Jonnu Smith — three names that anchored TE-premium rosters for half a decade — are being cut at a combined 13,000+ drops per day. This is the age cliff working exactly as the models say it does. The lesson for the rest of your roster is uncomfortable but useful: when a 30-plus pass catcher loses his starting job in June, the dynasty market doesn't taper. It evaporates.
One drop worth fading: Brashard Smith. Kansas City's depth chart churn cuts both ways, and a 3,700-drop day on a 23-year-old with draft capital is how someone in your league gets a free flier. Check your wire.
The top of the market hasn't moved
While the waiver wire churns, the blue-chip board is frozen: Josh Allen holds overall #1 at a 10,208 superflex value, Ja'Marr Chase is the WR1 at 9,098, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba — the biggest riser of the spring — has consolidated at #5 overall (8,538), ahead of Justin Jefferson. Bijan Robinson remains the RB1 at #8. When the top eight doesn't move for a month, trade season is about tiers two and three — that's where June discounts live.
