Jamey Eisenberg and fellow analysts conducted a 14-round mock draft to evaluate strategies for the No. 12 position in full PPR scoring leagues. The draft focused on building balanced rosters by pairing high-volume receivers with running backs capable of significant workloads. De'Von Achane was selected with the first pick, followed by Drake London and Tetairoa McMillan at the turn. Analysts highlighted Jayden Daniels as a potential late-round quarterback target due to his projected rushing yardage and expanded group of pass catchers. The exercise also tested the viability of roster construction from the draft's corners, where participants aim to bypass standard average draft position concerns. Participants included various team-building approaches, such as Hero RB and Zero RB, to demonstrate how different lineups function from the final position in a six-person draft format.
