ADVICE

Prioritize RBs For Floor

  • Play running backs over receivers when you need floor and consistency in weekly lineups.
  • Prioritize volume and snap share, like Rashod White's usage in the Buccaneers offense, to secure steady points.
ADVICE

Start Fields For Rushing Upside

  • Start Justin Fields over Geno Smith in a Superflex when Fields is active because of rushing upside.
  • If Fields doesn't start, pivot quickly to another QB like Tyrod Taylor to unlock your roster spot.
INSIGHT

Loveland's Upside Outweighs Short-Term Risk

  • Colston Loveland offers more long-term upside than many waiver tight ends despite week-to-week volatility.
  • Ben Johnson drafted Loveland for a reason, and his role can produce high-ceiling outcomes moving forward.
