INSIGHT

Rookie Hype Versus Offensive Context

  • Ladd McConkie's ADP is high because of his rookie surge but his role may be limited by scheme and veteran returners.
  • Liz Loza flags durability and volume risk with the Chargers leaning on the run and Keenan Allen's return.
ADVICE

Wait On Joe Burrow In Mid Rounds

  • Avoid drafting Joe Burrow in the fourth round when rushing QBs (Allen, Hurts, Lamar, Jalen) separate themselves.
  • Wait on QB and target mid-round passable options or invest that pick elsewhere.
