Episode notes
Roman Dozal Fits Best Ball Strategy
- Wide receiver Roman Dozal sees fluctuating target shares, making him a better fit for best ball where peaks matter more than consistency.
- JJ values him higher than ADP because best ball allows capitalization on boom weeks without penalty for valleys.
Stack Upside QB with WRs
- Stack quarterbacks with high-upside receivers to maximize ceiling, exemplified by Caleb Williams and Roman Dozal pairing.
- Consider young quarterbacks with rushing upside as better value than veteran pocket passers with touchdown regression risk.
Kenneth Walker’s Role Adjustments
- Kenneth Walker's target share spike last year was an outlier; offensive scheme changes may reduce pass-catching role.
- Despite injury risk, Walker's rushing big-play ability makes him an intriguing best ball candidate at his ADP.
