ADVICE

Exploit Mid-Round Value Windows

  • Use mid-rounds (5–11) to find high-upside players rather than reach early for safety.
  • Target clear values in tiers and exploit ADP slippage with real-time ADP tracking.
INSIGHT

Pickens Gains From Dak And Lamb

  • George Pickens benefits dramatically from upgrading to Dak Prescott and playing opposite CeeDee Lamb.
  • Expect more targets and man-matchups to boost Pickens' ceiling compared to his Steelers years.
ADVICE

Buy Calvin Ridley In Mid Rounds

  • Draft Calvin Ridley as a mid-round target when available because he will lead Titans targets.
  • Expect Cam Ward's aggressive downfield passing to increase Ridley's volume and profit his ADP.
