Episode notes
Broncos RBs: Harvey Still Shines
- RJ Harvey remains the most explosive back on the Broncos and should still get significant receiving work despite JK Dobbins arrival.
- Dobbins offers tougher competition but doesn't overshadow Harvey's projected role as a low-end RB2 with upside.
Pollard vs Spears Receiving Efficiency
- Tony Pollard had a modest 0.79 yards per route run last year and an 11% target share, showing limited efficiency in receiving.
- Tajay Spears shows better receiving efficiency and could increase his role, slightly lowering Pollard's overall usage projection.
Target Friermuth for Stability
- Draft Pat Friermuth around tight end 15 for a safe floor in best ball formats.
- He offers stability with upside given his role as the Steelers' likely number two target and good quarterback play.
