Episode notes
Don't Overreach For Ollie Gordon
- Avoid drafting Ollie Gordon before rounds 11–12; his upside doesn't justify earlier picks.
- Target him around rounds 11–12 instead of round eight or nine where risk outweighs return.
Mooney Has Deep Upside With Volatility
- Darnell Mooney fits as a late WR3/WR4 in PPR because he can stretch the field and produce deep scores.
- Michael Penix's style could redirect targets to bigger receivers, adding downside volatility to Mooney.
Receiving Work Can Make Henderson Elite
- TreVeyon Henderson can finish as a top-six RB via heavy passing-down usage even while sharing carries.
- Short-yardage and receiving roles can convert moderate touches into elite PPR value.
