Where Volume Is King
Garret found rock solid correlations at quarterback, running back, and tight end. Roughly 80 percent of top 12 quarterbacks in opportunity finished top 12 in points, running backs landed near 76 percent, and tight ends topped the group as high as 84 percent. 🔥 If you are chasing this season, target the guaranteed touches.
Where It Gets Shaky
Wide receiver was the weakest link, with only 64 percent of high volume target earners translating to a top 12 finish thanks to spike weeks and shaky quarterback play. 🤔 The takeaway is simple: chase talent for long term dynasty upside, but lean on opportunity for win now rosters. Line it up with the latest Dynasty Rankings.
