📝 News & Notes

• Jauan Jennings has requested a new contract or trade from the 49ers but is not expected to hold out when camp starts next Tuesday. [Matt Barrows]

  My take: This will likely further Kittle’s ADP rise and I expect to see Ricky Pearsall on next week’s chart as well. But my inclination is this is not going to turn into anything given his soft stance and willingness to show up. Will continue drafting Jennings at the discount.

• The police report for Quinshon Judkins has been released and market sentiment isn’t positive. I am no expert in this space so defer to those who are such as Drew Davenport who posted his latest update here.

  My take: This is unlikely to resolve quickly and I expect people to shy away from drafting him. I’ll hold off as well but willing to start taking if he drops to the low 100s.

• Adam Schefter shares important context around the PUP list so be aware of any overreactions to players hitting the PUP during training camp.

🔍 ADP Tracker

📈 Risers

• Omarion Hampton - Amid speculation on the severity of Najee Harris’ eye injury, Hampton has surged. I think the upside makes Hampton worth buying at this price.

• George Kittle - Don’t expect Kittle’s rise to slow down, particularly with the recent Jauan Jennings reports. I do not expect to be chasing Kittle into the 3rd round.

• Dylan Sampson - Sampson the obvious beneficiary if Judkins misses time and late in drafts, minimal cost to reach on him to get your guy. I’ve been reaching a round or so on both Sampson and Ford the past couple days.

• Jahmyr Gibbs - Slowly trying to crack into that top 5, perhaps as casuals prefer RBs or might be Evan Silva calling Gibbs his #1 overall player

📉 Fallers

• Jonnu Smith & Pat Freiermuth - It takes longer for players to reach their final landing spot when falling as they get autopicked or drafters can’t pass on the perceived ADP value. Still waiting to draft until they settle.

• Quinshon Judkins - I’d still take him above the NYG RBs but unlikely to see him fall there in current drafts

• Ashton Jeanty - Dropping into the Henry/Achane tier of RBs. Half PPR, I’d still take Jeanty. Full PPR, I think I’m taking Achane.

• Travis Hunter - Drafters are telling us they don’t believe the risk is worth the upside. I think most aren’t giving enough credit to the star potential for Hunter. This might be a falling knife but I’m continuing to buy.
