ADVICE

Be Cautious With Kamara In Moore's Offense

  • Avoid drafting Alvin Kamara as early as round 3–4 in PPR because Kellen Moore often reduces RB targets.
  • Heath Cummings warns Kamara's pass-catching role could shrink under Moore's schemes.
INSIGHT

Swift's Value Hinges On Pass Volume

  • DeAndre Swift's opportunity depends on role share and pass-game usage in Chicago.
  • Dave Richard thinks Swift in round five is overpaying unless you trust his reception volume.
ADVICE

Don't Overpay For Hockenson

  • Avoid drafting TJ Hockenson too early this year because returning receivers and Mack's run plan can cut his upside.
  • Dave Richard: Hockenson's ceiling falls once Addison and Jefferson are healthy.
