Summary

It's mostly about ADP, but nevertheless we'll tell you the players we're passing on in Fantasy drafts. First, we try to "Guess Heath's Sleepers" and then we get into why Heath is passing on James Robinson (3:10) and Dan is passing on T.J. Hockenson (5:55) ... News and notes (18:30) with potentially important notes on Jonathan Taylor, Mike Williams and Damien Harris. Then it's back to the "Avoid" list, starting with QBs (26:00) Josh Allen and Dak Prescott. Remember, it's about ADP! And at TE (34:53), we debate Kyle Pitts. One analyst is fine with his ADP and one is not even close to fine with it ... RBs on the "Avoid" list (40:40) include Miles Sanders and Josh Jacobs. Has Jacobs's situation really changed that much? And we finish with a Michael Carter discussion (52:35) as we wonder if this coaching staff will let him be a workhorse at any point ... Your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
