If you missed out on Elijah Mitchell, rest assured that he is not 2021 James Robinson. It would take an RB apocalypse for Kyle Shanahan to give 1 guy 79% of the carries and 11.2% of targets over the course of the year.

No one loves Christian Kirk. No one loves Marvin Jones. No one loves Zay Jones. No one loves Laviska Shenault. And yet no one seems to agree with me that Evan Engram has a shot to lead these Jaguars in targets.

Look ... I wish Austin Ekeler and the Chargers were on better terms, too. But they've added NOTHING at RB despite the squabble. And the market does NOT hold an Ekeler replacement. So I'm gonna draft him like he's still the lead in what could be the league's best 2023 offense.

#Jets TE Chris Herndon is blocking more than any other starting tight end on his passing snaps at 36.4% (minimum 80 total snaps). Combined with only playing 74% of overall snaps and playing on an anemic offense, you have a very bad fantasy recipe.
