Clayton Gray advised targeting Christian Kirk late in ESPN drafts. Footballguys place Kirk 97th overall, yet his ESPN ADP languishes at 239, supplying a 142-pick cushion and one of the deepest value pockets uncovered in Gray's study.

Clayton Gray called DeMario Douglas the biggest steal on ESPN, highlighting a massive difference between his Footballguys ranking (105) and his ESPN ADP (251). That 146-pick gulf means managers can land a top-120 graded player with one of their final selections.

Clayton Gray identified Rashod Bateman as another ESPN value, noting a Footballguys rank of 127 versus an ESPN ADP of 185. The 58-pick cushion turns Bateman into an inexpensive upside play for drafters who wait on wide receiver depth.

Clayton Gray listed Mike Gesicki among his ESPN deep sleepers. Footballguys slot Gesicki at 134 overall, yet ESPN drafters are letting him fall to 205, a 71-pick bargain that gives managers a low-risk late-round option at tight end.

Clayton Gray flagged Ray Davis as a deep ESPN sleeper, pointing out that Footballguys rank him 152nd overall while his ESPN ADP lags at 219. The 67-slot discount lets drafters stash running-back depth long after the position normally dries up.

Clayton Gray said Trevor Lawrence still "screams value" in ESPN drafts. Footballguys rankers have bumped Lawrence from 129th to 126th overall, yet his ESPN ADP has only inched up to 181 after sitting at 202 earlier this summer. That 55-pick gap means fantasy managers can grab him nearly for free as a backup quarterback who still offers weekly ceiling games.

Clayton Gray noted that Jacory Croskey-Merritt’s ADP has surged in Underdog drafts this week, making him one of the platform’s largest movers. Gray tied the jump to the broader theme of rookies gaining steam as beat writers file daily training-camp observations. The upward momentum means drafters who were sneaking Croskey-Merritt into late rounds must now spend earlier capital or risk missing out entirely.

In his weekly Underdog update, Clayton Gray highlighted Woody Marks as another rookie whose draft cost is “rocketing up.” Gray attributed the sudden spike to the constant trickle of camp news that has drafters aggressively chasing upside further down the board. Marks’ one-week ADP swing places him near the top of the riser list, and Gray advised managers to recalibrate their late-round plans because Marks is no longer available in the same range he occupied just seven days earlier.
