Episode notes
Caleb Williams And Rookie Adjustment
- Caleb Williams shows promise but remains a mid-tier QB until he proves consistency against starters.
- Justin Fields and rookie adjustment expectations mean early struggles are normal and not definitive.
Don't Reach For Swift Early
- Avoid drafting DeAndre Swift as early as ADP implies; target him later than round five.
- Prioritize his receiving role under Ben Johnson before paying full price.
Fields Is A Rushing-First Fantasy Option
- Justin Fields' fantasy value leans heavily on rushing upside, not passing volume.
- Draft him only when cost aligns with volatile production and waiver availability.
