Hopefully we can 7 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: keep it up, make it like forty five or forty six, 8 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: that would be good. I mean, the goal is to 9 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: do it all summer and up until the season starts, 10 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: and then we get into our regular Fantasy Football Weekly routine. 11 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: And that's the goal, and we'll keep looking for interesting guys. 12 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: We encourage you to give us ideas for who you'd 13 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: like to hear about.

Tyler Knabiley. Who 16 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: would you like to hear about? One of the players 17 00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about this week came from a listener 18 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: commendation by a Twitter I won't say who yet, and 19 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: it's not this guy today. We're talking about t Jay Hawkinson. Yeah, 20 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,559 Speaker 1: major kind of upgrade from where he was being drafted 21 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: last year to where he's currently going off the board 22 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: as the tight end three. So last year he was 23 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: he finished as the tight end four and average points 24 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: per game now going into the tight end three, and 25 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: I think you kind of just have to look at that. 26 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: After he got to Minnesota, he really just took off 27 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 1: in a way that he never really felt like he 28 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: did with the Lions. He was first in targets and 29 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: red zone targets among tight ends over from weeks nine 30 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: to seventeen when he started to the Vikings, so over 31 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: that span, first in receptions, second in yards, and he 32 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: was the Titan two in that half. That's almost half 33 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: the season, So that's a pretty That is a big 34 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: sample size. And the fact that he hit the ground 35 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: running in this offense what he had been on the 36 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: team for like four days in his first game in 37 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: Minnesota and was an immediate impact. They took it clearly 38 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: his skill set was a fit for the offense with 39 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: the Vikings. I think there's also a room to grow here. 40 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: I mean, he only has three touchdowns with the Vikings, 41 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: and that number I think we could see definitely go 42 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: up a number. I think we can also see go 43 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: up is going to be that target share number. Here's 44 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: a twenty three point four percent on the Vikings he 45 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: trailed only Kelsey and Andrews and Theelan and Irv Smith 46 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: are gone. Now that's gonna that. It leaves one hundred 47 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: and forty three vacated targets, So that's another twenty two 48 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: percent of the entire team target share that opens up. Yea, 49 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get a lot more work of 50 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: and where the Vikings are right now pre draft, there's 51 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: not another receiver that's gonna eat up a lot of 52 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: those hundred and forty three vacated shares. kJ Osbourne's gonna 53 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: get more, but they don't have anybody else in the 54 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: wide receiver department that's gonna help that way, you mentioned 55 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: the touchdown number could go up. I want to drill 56 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: down on that for a minute. Here he is number 57 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: one in red zone targets while with the Vikings and 58 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: he only scored three times. It suggests that if he 59 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: can be if he's going to be number one in 60 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: red zone targets again for the Vikings among all tight ends, 61 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: that three touchdown number is going to go up. And 62 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: I think one of the reasons he was probably the 63 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: most targeted, like you said, tight end in the red zones, 64 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: because they're gonna be double in Justin Jefferson, like everybody knows, 65 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: that's kind of their first option. So I think TJ 66 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: really exploited a lot of kind of one on one 67 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 1: matchups down in the red zone, where he's been pretty good. 68 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: Like he is a big body, very athletic guy. I 69 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: mean we've seen him do a couple have a couple 70 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: of players with the Vikes. I think it was in 71 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: that uh was the Giants game, not the playoff game, 72 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: but in the regular season game. Yeah, nice red zone 73 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: touchdown there. But I really like Hockinson this year. I mean, 74 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna have the best statistical season of 75 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: his career this year. Like you said, probably, I think 76 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: he's the number two receiving option on this team. Well, 77 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: currently current ADP is tight end three. Yeah, so it's 78 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: it's a bit of a big price, it is, You're 79 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: not there's no discount on TJ Hockinson at this time. 80 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: A lot of people feel like that's probably going to happen. 81 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: There's there is also reason to like or I think 82 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: be interested in the fact that long term, this is 83 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: his last year pending contract, right, so if he plays 84 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: this out, this is a contract year for t J. 85 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: Hopkinson for those that believe in that. But also note 86 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: this is Kirk's last year. Let's just talk Dynasty and 87 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: Empire leagues for a minute. Do you believe the Dynasty 88 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: Empire value is about what his current ADPs is? He 89 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: roughly tight end three in your mind as you if 90 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: you put on just a focus for Dynasty, not for Dynasty. 91 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: I don't think so, just because I mean, he is 92 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: on the younger side, but we have no clue what 93 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: his situation is going to look like after this year. Now, 94 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: if you're winning out team and you're looking for a 95 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: solid tight end, a really good tight end to kind 96 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: of win you a championship this year, like maybe you're 97 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: in that year or two where you won the previous year. 98 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: Now you need to win back to back years. That's 99 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: Empire yea, yeah exactly. TJA Hodginson I think is going 100 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: to be a great player to go out and trade 101 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: for that. But if you're looking long term, I think 102 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: I'd rather have a guy like Kyle Pitts. Maybe maybe 103 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: you wouldn't. I better have Kyle Pitts, guy like Dallas Goddard. 104 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: I think George Kittle, those guys who I kind of 105 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: know what their situation is going to be going forward 106 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 1: somewhat more than I think I can say with Hawkinson. Well, 107 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: the funny thing about Andrews Kittle Pits was their quarterback. Yeah, well, right, 108 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: in terms of George, if you don't have a quarterback 109 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: of the future on any of those teams yet, or 110 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: at least a sure one, the only person that matters 111 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: to me for George Kittle is College Shanahan. That's all 112 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: that matters for me. That helps yep. Yeah, um, and 113 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: those guys are I think all of these players are 114 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: pretty special athletes, Andrew's Kittle Pits and t. J. Hawkinson. 115 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard might be the safest side of this whole 116 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: group just because of the offense he plays in the 117 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: quarterback that he's got. You know, I think there's there's 118 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: still a lot to like about Dallas Goddard. So to me, 119 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: that does make that does make some sense. Would you 120 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: rather have let's play the would you rather have game? 121 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: Let's do it? Okay, I'll let I'll let you, I'll 122 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: let you lead. Okay, so you want me to ask 123 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 1: you sure? All right, Mark Andrews current going, would you 124 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: take Mark Andrews over TJ. Mark Andrews is tied in two. 125 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: Given that I assume that an unhappy Mark Jackson is 126 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: going to be his quarterback this year, I think Ako Hockinson. Okay, 127 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: George Kittle, factoring in all the injury stuff that you 128 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: have to go through with George Kittle, knowing that he's 129 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: gonna miss three games out of the year and he's 130 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: gonna be questionable rolling into Sunday three more times, I 131 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: think i'd rather Hotkinson. Okay, I'm gonna say Kyle Pitts, 132 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: but I think you know where I'm going. I'm not 133 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: on I'm not doing Pits, you are. I tweeted a 134 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: video yesterday. Remember I'm not trying to make this buck 135 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: Kyle Pits, but it was a video about it was 136 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: literally all of the targets Mariota through to him, and 137 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: it was just atrocious. Like miss after it was I 138 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: cried after watching it, it was Okay, is just quarterbacking 139 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: any better? Now? There's no way it can be worse? 140 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: So yes, okay, okay, sorry about Kyle Pits. Dallas Goddard. See, 141 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: I love Goddard, so it was the show was on 142 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: Goddard all last offseason. We were on the Eagles all 143 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: last offseason, and I'm sticking. I'm sticking with Goddard because 144 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: I love the offense and I love the opportunity there. 145 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: So Goddard is currently going in tight and six right now, 146 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: I think that's wrong. Okay. Now, granted, that's a run 147 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: heavy team and near the stripe, you know that they're 148 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: they're going to run a lot up close, and actually 149 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: were him touch on that on a Future Fantasy Football 150 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: Weekly micro later this week. But I still just like 151 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: the overall potential of Dallas Goddard in that in that 152 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: offense so much. He just feels so safe. I agree 153 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: with you. I'm huge on Godded this year. I think 154 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: I've been doing a lot of Bestball drafts and I 155 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: think he might be my most drafted tight end just 156 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: because I think he's you can kind of compare him 157 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: to the Kittle Hits, Yeah Hawkinson era, and you're getting 158 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: him of the cheapest costs. So I'm huge on Godded 159 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: right now. All Right, So I think you and I 160 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: are kind of on lotstuff. We both think that the 161 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: current ADP for tj Hodkinson tight end three, it's about right.
