Kansas Jayhawks
Kansas's top projected fantasy scorer for the 2026 season is Nik McMillan, a WR projected for 155.8 points (overall rank #108 among every FBS draftable player on the board). Across its top 10 board-ranked players, Kansas projects for 984.0 combined fantasy points — 14.4 points above the Big 12 median of 969.6, ranking #8 of 16 in the conference. Its deepest position group is wide receivers, worth 606.8 combined projected points from 14 rostered players.
The Big 12 is one of the sport's four power conferences. Saturday Night Showdown carries live projections and a full draft board for all 138 FBS programs — power-conference and Group of Five alike.
Projected points and board slot are Saturday Night Showdown's own 2026 season-long projections and value-based draft board, generated before Week 0 kicks off — not stats from games already played, and not an average of real-world draft results.
