Episode notes
ADVICE

Don’t Overreact To Najee Starting

  • Do not downgrade Omari Hampton just because Najee Harris is active; Hampton remains a start in most formats.
  • Start Jalen Warren or Aaron Jones over Hampton in full PPR if you have them.
ADVICE

Rank Flexes By Workload First

  • Rank flexes by projected workload, not name recognition: Sutton, Harvey, Pollard lead for Tennessee-Denver.
  • Do not start low-upside rookies ahead of proven volume players in borderline matchups.
ADVICE

Pick Up Cardinals DST For Week One

  • Stream the Cardinals DST this week against the Saints if they're on waivers or available.
  • Target cheap defenses facing inexperienced Saints quarterbacks with turnover histories.
