Awesome work, thank you for another great episode. It is going to be very interesting to see the draft capital these 4 players get. I tore my personal dynasty team down this last season and am sitting with picks 5, 7, 8, and 10 so very likely will end up with a few of these guys. In my 12 team, 1 QB(also start 2WR, 1RB, 2 flex, 1 TE), non TE premium I am struggling to figure out how far to drop Caleb Williams and Brock Bowers. My gut tells me to just draft 4 WRs since I am rebuilding and can start 4 WRs weekly but definitely need to consider Caleb and Brock at some point with those picks.

If you are interested/have any input or info I would love to see you do an upcoming episode on how you value landing spots. How much does the drafting teams complementary players, coach, scheme, etc. effect your valuation of these individual players fantasy futures and value/rank in a fantasy rookie draft? This would most likely be a general discussion and not specific to individuals in the draft class but of course you could touch on some particular players or archetypes if you thought their landing spot was more or less critical to their success then others. I know you have discussed your analysis on NFL draft capital and how that effects hit rates(which I would love to see a full episode just on that as well) but I thought it would be interested to get your take on landing spots. That being said I understand it is much more difficult to apply any quantitative analysis to landing spot because of how subjective it is and how many factors there are. I just loved the content you have put out on hit rates and I think this is the perfect time of year to discuss more things like that as we impatiently await critical data points from the combine and draft process.

Thanks again for all your hard work and excellent content!

Even though there’s much bigger needs on the Cowboys, Keon Coleman would be great on the outside for them. Especially since CeeDee spent so much time in slot last year and Brandin Cooks on the outside almost exclusively. Would be a great landing spot for fantasy.
