Yeah, that's it. Yeah, that's it. 14 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 3: You got all these opportunities to be like so much 15 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 3: more interesting than points per reception. Why can't it be 16 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 3: uh parts per parts per I mean, well. 17 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: I know there's like a lot of people, Like one 18 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: of my friends is into photography. His is like his 19 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: Instagram is like his name dot jpeg, like some people 20 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 1: some people will do that, or like she'll be warr 21 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: into like music dot MP three. 22 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: So I can see that I should have done Tyler 23 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: dot PPR could have done that. 24 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd still want to want to know if PPR 25 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 3: was anything cooler than points perception. 26 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, just just just fantacy football related. 27 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 3: So last last time, yesterday we broke down Garrett Wilson 28 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 3: and it was kind of a love fest, almost embarrassing. 29 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 3: This time it's Chris Olave taken in the draft right 30 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 3: next to Garrett Wilson. They end up in two different spots. 31 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 3: They have some similarity in the season that they had 32 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 3: last year quarterbacks, a big divergence for these two this 33 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 3: year and their ultimate landing spot. There's gonna be, uh, 34 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 3: there's gonna be a lot of comparisons here. Olave, like 35 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: Wilson finished, you know, I want to say that they 36 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 3: both finished like the mid twenties at the wide receiver position, 37 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 3: both from skyrocketing and ADP. 38 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. So Chris Alave, I mean, he's getting better 39 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: quarterback play now. He was the wide sever twenty one 40 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: last season. Average White is sever thirty one in average 41 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 1: points per game And oh no, sorry, that's Garret Wilson. 42 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 1: My bad, I was on there on sheet. He's why 43 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: is heaver twenty five last season? Why deceiver twenty seven 44 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: average points per game? And he's the wide receiver twelve 45 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: going off the board in twenty twenty three. 46 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 3: So he's moving from the mid twenties up to twelve. 47 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 3: Everybody's expecting a second year boom for Chris. I like 48 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 3: Garret Wilson, Like Garrett Wilson. We talked how about how 49 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 3: much we liked Garrett Wilson yesterday. I'm a lot more 50 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 3: Luke Rman on Chris Alave for reasons we're going to 51 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 3: talk about here. I don't think they automatically move in 52 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 3: tandem and make the big jump here. But let's talk 53 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 3: about some of the things that we like about Garrett 54 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 3: chrysal Lobby. 55 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: Let's be the last comparison I do, but on Chris 56 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: Lave and Garret Wilson's player profile or like thing, they 57 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: have the most comparable player in terms of like each 58 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: other athlete, like height, weights, beat all that. 59 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 2: It's each other, which is hilarious. 60 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: Same school taken into the draft, same similar twist in 61 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: this year. 62 00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 2: So sought that was interesting. 63 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: But he was great in some of the stats that 64 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: like you kind of look at in that matter for 65 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: fantasy football in my opinion. So he was number ten 66 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: in yards per rout run, a really good stat Yeah, 67 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: we like that, number nine in yards per team pass attempt, 68 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: and he was number two in target rate versus man 69 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: a really nice stat for him. So he's when we're 70 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: gonna man coverage. 71 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 3: They went out of their way to get. 72 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: Him, exactly Yeah, exactly right. And he's also not number 73 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: twelve in route win rate. 74 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 3: Six that's very good for a rookie. 75 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it, exactly. 76 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 3: Love to have the high win rate percentage. 77 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 2: Yep. Sixth in target targeted air yards. 78 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 3: That's fantastic. And that's and that was with Andy Dalton. 79 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 3: We're gonna talk a little bit more about Andy Dalton 80 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 3: in a little bit here, but that fact, you know, 81 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 3: we think of Andy Dalton as a noodle armed quarterback 82 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 3: dumping off short stuff. The fact that Chris Alave was 83 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: able to be sixth and targeted air yards feels very promising. 84 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. 85 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: And then the last two stats here, fourth and cushion 86 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: at seven point two yards. 87 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: That's pretty takes. 88 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 3: A lot of respect from defenses right there. 89 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, he was a Blazer Ohio State. That's kind 90 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: of like what his role was. Yes, and then seventh 91 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: and percentage of team targets. 92 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean that passing offense largely went through 93 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 3: Chrystal Lobby because they just don't have a lot of 94 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 3: other talent there and Michael Thomas. 95 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: Jeez, just he's hurt again now. So yeah, unbelievable. I 96 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: thought was funny like three weeks ago. It's like it's 97 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: like a video is like Michael Thomas looking healthy. It's 98 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: just a video of him running. 99 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go, he can run. 100 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is It's one of the saddest falloffs in 101 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 3: fantasy football, is what's happened to Michael Thomas. Michael Thomas 102 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 3: was you know, in his heyday with Drew Brees, he 103 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 3: was the surest pick in fantasy football. The dude was 104 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 3: just he was absolute money. And then he had just 105 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 3: the ankle injury which turned into a bigger anchor injury 106 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 3: and then not able to come back from that series 107 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 3: of injuries. It's just sad fall off for him. But 108 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 3: back to chrys O. 109 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 2: Lobby. 110 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: Love the fact that he had one hundred and nineteen 111 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 3: targets that got him a lot of seasoning last year. 112 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 3: I love that part. There's really not a lot of anybody, 113 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 3: There's not other players who are going to siphon off 114 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 3: a lot of work from him. 115 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: He Yeah, Kamara was the next closest person in targets 116 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: last season with seventy seven, and then Juwan Johnson at 117 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: sixty five. 118 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 2: The closest receiver in terms of targets to Chris A. 119 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: Lave was Jarvis Landry with thirty nine targets on the 120 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: entire season. 121 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 3: They think about that Chris Alave had one hundred and 122 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 3: nineteen targets at wide receiver and the next closest receiver 123 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 3: had thirty nine. 124 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 2: Oh, it's unbelievad that's ubelievable. That's an unbelievable set. It 125 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 2: really is thirty nine. I couldn't. 126 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: I feel like I remember Charvis Landry doing like some 127 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: stuff last year. I couldn't believe it was thirty nine targets. 128 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: And I think he was hurt a little bit too. 129 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: But it's still insane. 130 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 3: So now let's let's try about the other competition that's 131 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 3: there for targets, especially at wide receiver. Michael Thomas maybe 132 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 3: maybe not. I mean, I don't even know if think 133 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 3: I could play anymore? Can he run? I don't know. 134 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: And then at one of my favorite sleepers, Rashid Shahed, 135 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 3: dude came onlast year and he is fast, a lot 136 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 3: of got best ball he'd be. He's a great late 137 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 3: round dark thrown best ball. Rashid chi Head I think 138 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 3: will be the number two wide receiver this year. 139 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 2: I'm with you. 140 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: If Michael Thomas isn't there, I think Rashichi he is 141 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: the number two. 142 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't count on Michael Thomas. I'd I'd rather 143 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 3: have at the same ADP spot I would take for Shiheed. 144 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: Michael Thomas is still going fairly high. 145 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to make this about a Michael Thomas show, 146 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: but he's still going like right after kind of a 147 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: Sean Babman in that tier, which seems really high. Guy 148 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: who's done nothing for the better part of three years. 149 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 3: I couldn't be more out on that. 150 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's ridiculous. 151 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about the quarterback situation. If you 152 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 3: take nothing away, nothing else away from this show, this podcast, listeners, 153 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 3: Derek Carr is not the upgrade you think he is. 154 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 3: Let's talk about this. Yes, he propelled DeVante Adams to 155 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 3: a top five Fantasy finish last year, so we know 156 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: he can do that, and that's would be your upside 157 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 3: for christ Labbe. But is he better than Andy Dalton. 158 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 3: Let's dig into the numbers. Tyler completion percentage Dalton seven 159 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 3: percent more accurate than Derek Carr. Advantage Dalton yards per attempt. 160 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 3: We care about this. How deep are you throwing downfield? 161 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 3: Dalton seven point six Car seven point zero advantage Dalton. 162 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 3: Theme here PFF passer grade. Andy Dalton was the sixth 163 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 3: highest graded PFF passer last year. Derek Carr twenty fifth. 164 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 3: Advantage Dalton. 165 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna let you get away with that one. 166 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: That just you're gonna tell me PFF passor we're to 167 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: say that Andy Dalton's a top six passer in the league. 168 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 2: Is no loo. 169 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: I don't have to defend PFF. You can decide if 170 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 3: yourself whether they're. 171 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 2: Look what that is. 172 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 3: In next gen stats, expected completion percentage. Car was sixth worst, 173 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 3: and all five of the quarterbacks under him were all 174 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 3: starters who got benched at some point during the season. 175 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 3: It's like Zach Wilson and Taylor Heinike and you know 176 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 3: the bottom five CAR. It was a disaster. Also advantage Dalton. 177 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 3: Now on deep passes, they're both bad cars. Adjusted completion 178 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 3: percentage on passes of more than twenty yards was just 179 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 3: thirty nine percent. Dalton was thirty one percent. I will 180 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 3: give the slight nod here to Carr, but they were 181 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 3: both bad on deep passes and troublingly, Dalton was better 182 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 3: than Carr and all those metrics, and Dalton had the 183 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 3: second shortest time to throw in the NFL among all 184 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 3: quarterbacks last year, and Dalton was still better than Carr. 185 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 3: So I'm here to tell you Derek Carr is no 186 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 3: upgrade to Andy Dalton. 187 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: It feels like he is. 188 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 3: He's paid like he is. The expectations are that he is. 189 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,719 Speaker 3: The metrics don't prove it out. 190 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: Well, we talked about on this show all the stats, well, 191 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: because we did a Derek Carr episode, you can go 192 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: back and listen to that, and we talked about how 193 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: he was bottom five and all those accuracy stats right 194 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: around the guys you mentioned, like Zach Wilson, Taylor, heine Key, 195 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: those kind of guys. He had career high interceptions. But 196 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: the thing that people are only going to care about 197 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: despite he was this bad last season. Devanta Adams was 198 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: wide receiver three last season despite all these numbers. So 199 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: I think it's just becomes an argument of whether he 200 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: might be a bad quarterback. Yes, I don't think he's 201 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: a good quarterback at all. I'm not Derek Carr as 202 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: like the players in terms of just drafting Derek Carr. 203 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: But can he be good enough just to get Chris 204 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: a lave all these these points, these yards, these touchdowns. 205 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 1: That's kind of I think the argument is what it 206 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: is right. 207 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 3: Now, and I'm not I'm not convinced he can happen. 208 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: I hope it happens. I have nothing against Chrys o lave. 209 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 3: I'm not banking for where Chris a. Lobby is being 210 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 3: taken wide receiver twelve, which means he's going to be 211 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 3: a third round pick. I don't know that's putting a 212 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 3: lot of that's putting a lot on on Derek Carr. 213 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 3: Let's talk about some of the players going in the 214 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 3: same relative area as Chris o'lave. 215 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 2: I think note to note all these players too. They 216 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 2: all have good quarterbacks. 217 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: I think, like, now that you mention it, Chris Love 218 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: is the highest guy with like the like a noticeably 219 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: bad quarterback. I would say, yeah, which is kind of interesting. 220 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: All the other guys have good quarterbacks. So all right, 221 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: let's dive into it. Get Jalen Wattle, why deceiver eleven. 222 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll take Waddle and the upside that that. I 223 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 3: think that's more well. They both have actually they both 224 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 3: have really good upside, and they both have the ability 225 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 3: to be explosive with deep plays. Yeah, I'm gonna take Waddle. 226 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: Yeah I'll go Watle too on that feel a little 227 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: more proven. Davante Smith why deceiver thirteen. 228 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I'm gonna go Smith. He was shockingly 229 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 3: he was shockingly uh consistent last year. Now the fact 230 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 3: that he's the clear number two and sometimes number three 231 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 3: receiver on his own team depending on you know, you 232 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 3: know game plan and whether or not you've got to 233 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 3: They've got a healthy tight end to Dallas Goddard. That 234 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 3: does worry me a little bit. Yeah, I think I'm 235 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 3: gonna go Smith. I want part of the Eagles offense. 236 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: This one's a tough one for This is tough, isn't it. 237 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: I think I go a Lave just because I think 238 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: a Lave has a higher ceiling, just in terms of 239 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: a lot of these guys are kind of either wideceiver 240 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: twos or wideceiver ones with a lot of competition. 241 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Chris Lave like as we. 242 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: Mentioned, is the white one zero. Competition's fair even longly 243 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: you get better this season I think too. 244 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 3: Well, same things with the next player up, T Higgins. 245 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: Exactly, Higgs. 246 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 3: Do I want the number two wide receiver we know 247 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,599 Speaker 3: is really good catch a pass from Joe Burrow? Or 248 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 3: do I want the number one from Derek Carr? Oh? 249 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna take I think i'd take Chi 250 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 3: t Higgins here, h and I take the consistency. 251 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 2: I really like T Higgins. I'm gonna go te Higgins. Yeah, 252 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: I'm with you on that. Who's next? Dk Metcalf? Why 253 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: is here? Fifteen? Wide deceiver one? Seemingly on his own team? 254 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: But a lot of competition for targets in that in 255 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 2: that offense. 256 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, and more so now after the draft. 257 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 2: It's tough. It's it's really tough a lobby. This is 258 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: why a lob is going twelve. 259 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I might go. I might go Chris 260 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 3: A Lave here. Okay, Yeah, I fink I've finally found 261 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 3: my breaking point where I'm gonna go Chris Olave. 262 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: All right, I'll go Chris Lave as well. Calvin Ridley 263 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: wide receiver sixteen. 264 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 3: I've got Ridley at twenty, so you know, and I 265 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: like Ridley, but you know, I'm optimistic, but I think 266 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 3: sixteen is hyper optimistic. You know, Christian Kirk was like 267 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 3: wide receiver twelve last year and maybe even better wide 268 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 3: receiver nine, something like that, And everybody assumes Christian Kirk's 269 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 3: just gonna like, like, don't drive his car off a 270 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 3: cliff and just disappear, and it's suddenly the whole, the 271 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 3: whole passing offense is gonna go to Calvin Ridley. Yeah, 272 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 3: I don't think that's a fair assumption. 273 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: Who do you think is a higher upside? 274 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: Though, Let's say, let's say let's just play this game, 275 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 1: hypothetical game. 276 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 2: We don't wish injuries upon anyone. 277 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: Let's say Chris Christian Kirk goes down Week three and 278 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: he's out for the year. 279 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 3: Well it's Calvin Then I'd probably Calvin Ridley. 280 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: You think Calvin Ridley has a higher upside than Chris 281 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 1: A Lave? Who do you think guys are a higher upside? 282 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: Just overall? Even with Christian Kirk, there. 283 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 3: A Lave's got freaky upside. If everything breaks just right, Yeah, 284 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 3: he's got he could, he could find himself in the 285 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 3: top six. He could, Yeah, just because the opportunity sheer talent, Yeah, opportunity, 286 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: percentage of passes coming his way stuff like that. 287 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 2: I really really like Calvin Ridley, but I think there's. 288 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 3: No discount built into an ADP of sixteen. 289 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: He's he's going like a round after a lave too, 290 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: even though they only like four receivers. 291 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 2: A part is a big tear drop after, like after 292 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: a lave and waddle. It kind of feels like. 293 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: A tear drop after like then we got Smith Higgins, 294 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: I'd say, after Higgins, and then it gets to Metcalfien. 295 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 2: Really it's like a tear drop kind of thing. But 296 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 2: I'll go to Lave over Ridley just because, like you said, 297 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 2: the upside. 298 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: And I think I think Derek Carr might be a 299 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 1: little better than you think, just because if I mean, yes, 300 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: he had a bad season last year, but I think 301 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: he can play better than that. 302 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 2: We've seen him play better than two. 303 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 3: So granted he was in a bad spot on a 304 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 3: bad offense with very little help a terrible offensive line, 305 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 3: but honestly, he had better receiver Derek Carr better receivers 306 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 3: last year. I agree, Darren Waller and Hunter renfro and 307 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 3: Devonte Adams, and you know there was he had more 308 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 3: of a nice right. 309 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 2: You know that. 310 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 3: There's no guarantee for me on him whatsoever. Yeah, all right, 311 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 3: this has been an overly long Fantasy Football Weekly micro edition. 312 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 3: Thank you for getting to the end of it.
