Episode notes
Shallow-League Picks Change Priorities
- Shallow-league availability skews priorities because quarterbacks and RBs like Brock Purdy or Tyrone Tracy may be dropped.
- If those players are available in your site, they become high-impact waiver targets.
Singletary Is The Likely Goal-Line Option
- Against the Giants, Devin Singletary likely gets goal-line carries and is worth rostering in PPR lineups.
- Compare Tracy and Singletary roles: Tracy runs more routes, Singletary gets more short-goal touches.
Spend FAAB Based On Desperation
- Allocate FAAB based on how desperate you are at a position; spend more on must-have playoff pickups.
- If you need Jalen Wright as insurance, consider spending 10–15% of your budget to secure him.
