ADVICE

Choose Hill Unless You Trust Mac Jones Volume

  • Play Tyreek Hill over Ricky Pearsall unless you expect Mac Jones to heavily target Pearsall.
  • Prefer Hill in expectation of a Miami bounce-back and preserved target share.
ADVICE

Brown For Floor, Tillman For Upside

  • Start Marquise Brown for a safer floor and Cedric Tillman if chasing upside in favorable matchups.
  • Prioritize Brown when you value consistent short-target volume from Mahomes.
ADVICE

Favor Pacheco For Early-Down Work

  • Start Isaiah Pacheco over Zach Charbonnet in Week 2 given game-flow and early-down role.
  • Expect Pacheco to lead early-down snaps unless Chiefs fall behind significantly again.
