Episode notes
Judkins Fits NFL Schemes Better Than College
- Quinchon Judkins profiles as a better pro than college player because NFL duo and under-center schemes suit his skill set.
- He makes one defender miss and converts that into high YAC, giving him dynasty upside if usage and health hold.
Contact-Heavy Runners Trade Production For Durability
- Cam Scanaboo (Scadaboo) showed true bell-cow traits but suffered a freak season-ending injury tied to contact-heavy style.
- His running style invites contact and production but raises long-term durability concerns.
Trade Or Stash Amari and Hampton
- If you can buy Amari and Hampton cheaply in redraft or stash them on IR in dynasty, do it because both have high upside when healthy.
- Use IR spots or trade windows to acquire them for second-half payoff.
