Episode notes
Williams Is Opportunity-Driven Fantasy Asset
- Javonte Williams looked better but not fully back, and his value is tied to volume and goal-line work.
- Expect him as a low-end RB2 most weeks with upside driven by touchdowns and opportunity.
Hurts Adapts To Coverage, Shows Top-QB Upside
- Jalen Hurts exploited soft zone coverage and made plays with his legs, showing MVP-level upside.
- The Eagles will often take what defenses give them rather than force a single script.
One-Catch Games Don't Kill Brown's Value
- A.J. Brown's one-catch performance was a result of defensive game-planning, not lost role or volume.
- He remains a high-value WR who will have clunkers when opponents bracket him heavily.
