ADVICE

Empty The FAAB For Tyrone Tracy

  • If Tyrone Tracy is available, spend most of your FAAB to add him now as Cam Scadaboo is out for the season.
  • Tracy previously handled a 20-plus touch workload and should inherit the primary RB role in New York.
ADVICE

Target Troy Franklin For WR Depth

  • Add Troy Franklin as a PPR flex if you need wide receiver depth; he's seeing heavy target and screen usage.
  • Consider spending 15–20% of FAAB in deeper leagues but prioritize RB handcuffs first.
ADVICE

Stash Dylan Sampson Sparingly

  • Pick up Dylan Sampson as a low-cost handcuff target if Quinshawn Judkins misses time; use ~10–15% FAAB.
  • Don't spend your last FAAB on him since his rushing efficiency is poor this season.
