Episode notes
Treat Tight Ends As Touchdown-Dependent Plays
- Start tight ends based on process, not headline results; touchdowns are binary and inflate outcomes.
- Avoid overvaluing touchdown-dependent tight ends like Colby Parkinson when his target share/floor is low.
Prioritize Michael Carter As Immediate RB Target
- Add Michael Carter in waivers if available; he should handle a bell-cow workload for the Cardinals.
- Play him as a top-12 RB this week if he receives feature back usage and favorable matchups.
Be Cautious With Saints Running Back Handcuffs
- Use caution rostering Saints backs; usage looks split and is unclear between Evan Hall and Audrick Esmai.
- Only add Audrick Esmai as a high-variance play if you lack other flex options.
