ADVICE

Prioritize High-Volume WRs Early

  • Don’t ignore established, reliable WRs in early rounds; Amon-Ra St. Brown offers consistent high-floor production like Keenan Allen.
  • Prioritize dependable target share over flashy upside when drafting in round one.
ADVICE

Take Drake London For Target Share

  • Target Drake London in the late second/third round if Michael Penix unlocks a concentrated passing offense.
  • A high target share and end-zone usage make him a strong value pick.
INSIGHT

  • Calvin Ridley trades as if his quarterback situation hasn't materially improved with rookie Cam Ward.
  • Market forgetfulness creates value when a veteran WR moves to a quietly better situation.
