Gibbs Is An Efficiency-First Breakout

  • Jahmyr Gibbs combines elite college receiving/ explosiveness with top NFL explosive-run rates.
  • That efficiency, not just volume, makes him a true league-winning upside pick.
ADVICE

Prioritize Upside Over Perceived Volume

  • Draft for upside in early rounds rather than just perceived volume guarantees.
  • Favor young, explosive backs like Gibbs who can break a season open if usage shifts upward.

London Fits Penix's Intermediate Game
