From the episode

I have Jonathan Brooks as a target because what I do for the targets and avoids is that I'm looking at my rankings, my tears, and I'm seeing in my overall where I have them overall as well... I'm at about 11, 12% Jonathan Brooks right now. So I'm ahead of market.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Brooks rising in ADP as Chuba falls; Zachariason targets him as RB3-4 dart with value.

JJ Zachariason has Jonathan Brooks as a target in his draft guide and is ahead of market at 11-12% portfolio allocation. Brooks is rising in ADP (now ninth round) while Chuba Hubbard falls (seventh to eighth round), but Zachariason ranks Chuba only two spots ahead overall. He views Brooks as a clear dart RB3-4 type rather than an RB2, preferring the stable Chuba as the primary back; however, the cost gap between them (ninth vs. seventh-eighth round) is now fair enough that Brooks offers value as a late-round upside play in best ball.
