# Derek Brown: Brown calls Jalen Coker a late-round priority who is undervalued relative to his ADP gap with Tetairoa McMillan, and touts Tank Bigsby as one of the NFL's best handcuffs to stash behind Saquon Barkley in Philadelphia. **Claimed:** Aug 26, 2026 **Pundit:** Derek Brown — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/derek-brown **Outlet:** FantasyPros — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/fantasypros **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.fantasypros.com/2026/08/fantasy-football-25-late-round-draft-picks-experts-love-2026/ One checkable claim, graded on its own against what actually happened. It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record. Nothing to score yet: this grades once the result is in. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > Coker is a late-round priority for me this season. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Tank Bigsby to be 2nd on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Tank Bigsby, Philadelphia Eagles - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Tank Bigsby — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/tank-bigsby - Philadelphia Eagles — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/eagles ## What others said about the same people - Rich Eisen on A.J.
