Episode notes
Flacco Is An Upgrade, Not A Transformation
- Joe Flacco is an upgrade over Jake Browning but the Bengals' poor offensive line will still pressure him heavily.
- Flacco ranks near the bottom in quarterback rating under pressure historically, so expectations should be tempered.
Be Selective Selling Ja'Marr Chase
- If you can trade Jamar Chase for a top-8 overall asset cost-effectively, consider selling.
- Chase's cost will likely rise after the Flacco move, so only sell if you get excellent value.
Chase Brown's Workload Predicts Success
- Chase Brown's current workload (82% rush share, 14.6% target share) projects that strong fantasy finishes historically.
- If he maintains similar usage, Brown should finish as a top-24 RB, with high chance of top-12 production.
