Episode notes
Quarterback Big Four and Rushing Floor
- Mike Clay defines a "big four" tier for quarterbacks based on rushing yards and touchdowns.
- Players like Joe Burrow and Baker Mayfield lack the rushing floor that the top four QBs provide, differentiating tiers.
Quarterback Draft Timing Advice
- Target quarterbacks in the middle of the third round or later when drafting.
- Avoid drafting quarterbacks too early unless you get one of the elite "big four" QBs early.
Target Young Running Backs
- Focus on young running backs under 26, as older backs tend to decline or be less reliable.
- Don't fear passing on aging stars; a solid core of young backs can sustain your team.
