ADVICE

Trade WR For RB Depth

If you can swap Courtland Sutton for Kyren Williams and Travis Etienne, do the deal to improve RB depth.
Prioritize acquiring a clear RB2/3 over holding an extra WR when your WR group is deep.

ADVICE

Hold Evan Engram, Stream If Needed

Don't drop Evan Engram yet; pick up a streaming TE like Juwan if needed but keep Ingram on the roster.
Wait for clearer injury updates before trading a proven TE for upside.

ADVICE

Win Shallow Leagues With Margins

In shallow leagues, focus on streaming tight ends and exploiting margins to gain weekly edges.
Hit the waiver wire and flip breakout pickups to turn small advantages into wins.
