Episode notes
INSIGHT

Early-Week Projections Need Multiple Paths

  • Early-week projections have higher uncertainty but can still produce confident directional plays.
  • Wide receiver rooms this week are unusually unclear, so plan for multiple pivot paths.
ADVICE

Lock Early Cash-Game Values

  • Target high-value, low-cost plays early in the week to lock in cash-game foundations.
  • Prioritize reliable defenses and clear running-back values before finalizing risky wide receiver choices.
ADVICE

Stack With Correlation In Mind

  • Stack correlated plays only when the correlation strengthens your cash lineup (e.g., running back plus defense).
  • Avoid stacking risky, low-correlation pieces like a random WR with your RB unless the value is obvious.
