Episode notes
Commanders Now A Three-Man Backfield
- Washington looks set for a three-man backfield after Brian Robinson's exit, which dilutes fantasy upside for any single back.
- Austin Ekeler projects as the passing-down leader while Ja'Cory Krosky-Merritt and Chris Rodriguez split base and goal-line roles.
Colts Choose Safety Over Upside
- Colts naming Daniel Jones starter changes team trajectory toward safer short-term production over developing Anthony Richardson.
- That decision improves immediate outlooks for Colts backs and receivers who benefit from more traditional passing volume.
Don’t Bank On Flacco All Season
- Avoid overvaluing Browns pass-catchers based on a presumed long-term Joe Flacco starter scenario.
- Plan for quarterback turnover late in the season and poor playoff weather that could reduce fantasy ceilings.
