Is there an advantage at either position, and should this shape your draft strategy? We've also got news and notes (11:15) on Terry McLaurin and Colston Loveland before we get to Jamey's first two WR tiers (14:25)! Does Amon-Ra St. Brown belong in Tier 1, Tier 2 or Tier 3!? ... We reveal Tiers 3 and 4 (18:30) for Jamey. Why is Brian Thomas Jr. in Tier 3 instead of Tier 2? At what point in Tier 3 do we start questioning these WRs? Then we move on to Tier 5 (25:15) which takes us to the 2/3 turn in drafts. Should Jaxon Smith-Njigba be in a higher tier? Meanwhile, Tier 6 (30:50) is a big tier with a mix of young talent and proven veterans, but should these WRs be drafted ahead of the stud quarterbacks? ... Tier 7 (39:30) is littered with WRs who could be great if things break right, but also have some downside. We're talking about Jerry Jeudy, Zay Flowers, Jameson Williams, DeVonta Smith and more. Tier 8 (44:15) has one player who seems to stand out above the rest. Tiers 9 (47:50) and 10 (56:10) also feature players with upside, but they are less proven. Within these tiers we discuss the 49ers, Packers and Colts WRs, among others. And stay tuned for the rest of the tiers and WRs you could take with your last pick ...

Heath and Ian will critique and let us know where they differ. First, Ian offers his take on RB strategy (4:00) for 2025 and we run through the news and notes before getting into the first two tiers at RB (10:50). We've got seven stud RBs in Tiers 1 and 2, but Heath believes there should be an eighth! ... Tiers 3 and 4 (22:00) are loaded with talent. Can these guys be your RB1? Should Ken Walker be in this tier? Then we get to Tier 5 (29:10) which is where Jamey starts to get nervous about the position with guys like Alvin Kamara and James Conner among others. Meanwhile, Tier 6 (35:15) is an interesting mix of veteran RBs and rookie RBs ... Tiers 7 and 8 (44:55) once again highlight the stability of the veterans vs. the excitement of the rookies. Should you draft R.J. Harvey or Aaron Jones? Kaleb Johnson or Isiah Pacheco?
