Episode notes
Tight End Positional Edge Has Eroded
- Tight end production this year is chaotic and many top-drafted TEs haven't delivered consistent advantage.
- That erosion turns previously drafted positional edges into a need to stream or roster cheaper options.
Add Chargers Backup RBs Now
- Add Hassan Haskins and Kamari Vidal after Omarion Hampton went to IR for depth and upside in the Chargers backfield.
- Prioritize Hassan Haskins as the likely early-down leader and add both in 10-team leagues as insurance.
Priority Add: Michael Carter
- Add Michael Carter as the priority running back pickup this week due to his early-down role and pass-catching usage.
- Roster him even in tough matchups because he should get consistent volume while the team evaluates other backs.
