Kyle Monangai: 2026 Fantasy Football Outlook
Kyle Monangai averaged 8.1 half-PPR points per game in 2025 — about what a RB35 draft slot was worth, so the July 2026 price read roughly in line with the production. His target share trended up over his last three games of 2025.
This week's projection is in the Week 6 card below. The July 2026 draft-day read that follows is opinion, framed from the cited 2025 data.

Forecast 10.1 Half-PPR points: the Vegas line adds 0.5, the matchup nothing. Show how it is built.
| Step | Points | Running total |
|---|---|---|
| Baseline: His role and efficiency over 4 games, with his preseason RB35 ADP at 33% weight, at his usual line | 9.6 | 9.6 |
| Vegas: CHI implied 24.8 vs 23.2 in his games | +0.5 | 10.1 |
| Matchup: ATL 6th toughest vs RB: already in the Vegas line | 0.0 | 10.1 |
| Availability: No designation, no teammate ruled out | 0.0 | 10.1 |
| Projection | 10.1 | 10.1 |
Each step is the change from switching that factor on, in this order, so the steps add up to the projection. The matchup adds nothing with a line: the model's backtest found the line already prices the defense.
- Helps: CHI is implied for 24.8 points, 9th-highest of 28 teams with a line this week.
- Hurts: ATL ranks 27th of 32 defenses in fantasy points allowed to RBs, where 1st allows the most (context, not in the projection).
- Context: a retractable roof, treated as indoors.

PPR pts is nflverse's full-PPR total for the game. "Score this game" opens the fantasy point calculator with that exact line loaded, to re-score it in Standard, Half-PPR or your league's settings. A dash means nflverse has no figure for that game yet. "Did not play" means his team played but nflverse has no stat line for him, which is usually an injury or an inactive game day; the injury designation shows only for the week the latest report covers.

The July 2026 draft-day read
This is the July 2026 pre-draft read, kept as published. Every ADP and market figure on this page comes from the Fantasy Football Calculator snapshot of Jul 15, 2026 and is not updated in-season — 2026 drafts are over and ADP has stopped moving. In-season tools
The numbers behind the read
| Metric | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| ADP (July 2026) | 97.2 | Fantasy Football Calculator |
| Overall ADP rank (July 2026) | 100 | Fantasy Football Calculator |
| Fantasy points / game | 8.1 | nflverse |
| Points over expected (FPOE) | +1.0 | nflverse |
| Target share | 5.7% | nflverse |
| Target share, last 3 games (2025) | 9.2% | nflverse |
| Sleeper search rank (July 2026) | 61 | Sleeper |
xFP (expected fantasy points) is what a typical player would score with the same targets, carries and field position. FPOE (points over expected) is actual points minus xFP, per game.
