Episode notes
Thomas Jr. Needs A Change Of Scenery
- Brian Thomas Jr's 2025 decline tied to role shifts and Parker Washington's slot return increasing Thomas' average depth of target and reducing volume.
- Jake Ciely argues Jaguars should trade Thomas for a fresh start rather than keep him in that reduced role.
Wait On Odunze Until DJ Moore Clarity
- Rank Rome Odunze lower until DJ Moore's roster status is clear, because Colston Loveland and Luther Burden could siphon targets.
- Andrew Erickson warns Odunze's low catch rate and late-season foot issues depressed 2025 production.
Buy Marvin Harrison Jr. On Down Year Discount
- Consider buying Marvin Harrison Jr. after his 2025 disappointment because Brissett's late-season usage hinted at upside if he stays healthy.
- Jake Ciely expects Harrison to rebound and targets him in redraft/dynasty.
