Deep Pick choiceDraft Aaron Jones Sr. over Deebo Samuel Sr. if both are on the board. This is a cross-position call, so raw RB and WR points are not the tiebreaker: Aaron Jones Sr. is RB31 and No. 79 overall, 23 spots ahead of Deebo Samuel Sr. at WR49 after the board weighs replacement value, weekly startability, ceiling, role resilience, and playoff runway. Deebo Samuel Sr. remains a strong roster-build alternative, but Aaron Jones Sr. is the cleaner pick unless verified opportunity falls below 37.1% or the accepted team-scoring band changes.
