Episode notes
Grab Romeo Dobbs Now
- Pick up Romeo Dobbs as a low-cost WR4 option after Jayden Reed's injury because his role as the clear No.1/2 increased.
- He remains volatile but can deliver useful weekly fantasy points and is worth rostering in most formats.
Be Aggressive On Troy Franklin
- Add Troy Franklin aggressively while he's widely available; he's emerged as Denver's clear WR2 alongside Courtland Sutton.
- Franklin has strong target share early and should be rostered especially in PPR formats.
Roster Blake Corum As A Handcuff
- Roster Blake Corum as a top-tier handcuff because he is the clear backup to Kyren Williams.
- If Williams gets hurt Corum would take over and deliver RB2 upside in many weeks, so roster him now especially in deeper leagues.
