Episode notes
Lions Still Vulnerable To Top WRs
- Detroit allowed heavy production to top WRs last year despite overall defensive strength earlier in the season.
- Matthew Golden offers three-WR-league upside but must be judged against improved Lions' defensive health.
Treat Goff and Love As 'Maybe' QBs
- Place Jared Goff and Jordan Love in a sit/maybe tier for Week 1; prefer other QBs with higher upside.
- Start proven QBs like Trevor Lawrence, Tua, Drake Maye, or Kyler ahead of them if available.
Purdy Is A Solid Week‑1 QB
- Brock Purdy remains a usable QB option versus Seattle based on past efficiency and matchups.
- Purdy sits behind top-tier QBs but still beats low-upside options like Love or Goff this week.
