Research first, release every qualified value.

The market favorite, public narrative, or injury list cannot manufacture an edge. Every fully priced, evidence-complete candidate may release when its lane clears.

Spread

Chicago Bears -3.5

Key-number movement through 3, 6, 7, 10 and 14 can materially change value.

Total

43.5 points
