Episode notes
Don't Hedge Top-Tier Tight Ends
- Avoid drafting a second tight end when you already own a top-three TE unless your league has a very deep bench or many teams.
- Use late rounds for high-upside rookies or depth, not roster insurance on another tight end.
Prioritize Premium Tight Ends In Deep Formats
- In a 12-team league with many flexes, prioritize a premium tight end over an elite quarterback if you must choose one.
- Otherwise draft BPA and take a mid-round QB like Justin Fields or Brock Purdy later.
McBride's Versatile Fantasy Value
- Trey McBride delivers cross-positional fantasy value even without heavy TD totals.
- He ranked near WR17 and RB17 last year, making him valuable if drafted in the late second.
