Episode notes
Wait On TreVion Henderson
- Avoid drafting TreVion Henderson early despite pass-catching upside due to offensive uncertainties and elevated ADP.
- Consider targeting him later if his price drops or camp speak supports a bigger role.
Fade Quinshawn Judkins At ADP
- Avoid drafting Quinshawn Judkins in round six due to poor efficiency, no pass-catching upside, and uncertain offense.
- Prefer targeting more reliable backs or pass-catching specialists instead.
Choose Caleb Johnson Over Judkins
- Draft Caleb Johnson over Quinchon Judkins as a handcuff with strong volume and explosive play potential.
- Expect Steelers to run heavily and favor Johnson's skillset in early downs.
