Sneaky-Good Draft Values
We start with news of Joe Burrow’s not fully recovered knee and the Kenny Golladay hamstring situation in New York. Note: We recorded this before the report that Saquon Barkley might miss the first two weeks of the season. Then we introduce a segment called “Name Brand Off Brand.” You know how sometimes the off-brand product is just as good as the name brand for half the price? We look at the players who offer the same upside as more highly priced players but whom you can draft at a discount.
