Episode notes
INSIGHT

Merit Has Upside But Faces Committee Limits

  • Ja'Cory Krosky-Merritt offers upside but sits in a three-man committee with Austin Ekeler and Chris Rodriguez.
  • Committee roles and limited goal-line and pass-down work cap his safe fantasy ceiling despite recent hype.
ADVICE

Don't Draft Merritt As An RB2

  • Avoid overpaying for Merritt early; draft him near committee-RB value instead of RB2 ADP.
  • Target players like Jordan Mason or Caleb Johnson ahead of Merritt at similar cost.
INSIGHT
