Should I draft Tony Pollard or Rico Dowdle? (PPR)
The verdict
Tony Pollard
63%confident
The name says Dowdle. The board says Pollard. The board pays better.
Dowdle's projection fell from 12.7 to 10.7, which is the exact kind of disrespect I fund, and his name remains undefeated.
Pollard projects 11.7 as our RB25 against a market RB28 at 29 years old. Three free spots, one more point a game, one fewer great name. 63%. Closer than it should be, entirely because of the name.
↻ Re-roll — Rico Dowdle wins the poetry bracket regardless.
