00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros. This is the Fantasy

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: Football Podcast. This is me Joey P joe P. Zapia,

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: and today we're gonna take a look at the early

4
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 1: ranks for twenty twenty six because it's never too early

5
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 1: to look ahead. Get a sense of where the early

6
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: consensus rankings are falling so we can start looking ahead

7
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,120
Speaker 1: to the twenty twenty six fantasy football season. We're gonna

8
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: break down all the positions here and you can find

9
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 1: these ranks over at fantasypros dot com slash rankings. And

10
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: to help us go through and find maybe some differences

11
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 1: of opinion, because we love a good debate here on

12
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: the program, Jake Seally from The Athletic Andrew Ericsson of

13
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: Fantasy Pros. We're gonna talk to the boys here, get

14
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 1: their takes on some of these players here, and we're

15
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: gonna start at the very top of the wide receivers. So, gentlemen,

16
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: that number one spot right now, we have a pretty

17
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: clear guy, Pooka Nakua actually, believe it or not, goes

18
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: to the top spot, above Jamar Chase and above Jackson

19
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 1: Smith and Jigma. So that's your Tier one guys, right now,

20
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: JSN coming off a fantastic season, Jamar Chase obviously missing

21
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow for a good chunk of the year, but

22
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: Pooka Nakua gets Matthew Stafford back, so he has the

23
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: top spot as of now. In tier number two. At

24
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 1: number four, we have CD Lamb with the Dallas Cowboys.

25
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm on Ross, Saint Brown, Steady Eddie at number five,

26
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: Drake Lunne at number six. We'll see what Kevin Stefanski

27
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: brings to that new offense as he is the new

28
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,839
Speaker 1: head coach. The Lik Nighbors coming back at number seven

29
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: from a torn acl Justin Jefferson. We'll see what quarterback

30
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: situation he has at number eight. Nico Collins at nine.

31
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: Rushie Rice will not have Patrick Mahomes to open the season,

32
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 1: but he is still top ten here. George Pickens off

33
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: a great year at eleven and recently franchise tagged as well.

34
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 1: And then Chris o'lave at twelve, who had a very

35
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: surprisingly good season as Tyler Schuck emerged last year. So

36
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: let's talk about these guys. Andrew Erickson, Let's talk about

37
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: some of the differences here, and let's start with Chris

38
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,199
Speaker 1: o'lave because you've got a difference of opinion on that one.

39
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a little bit lower versus consensus on Chris Alave.

40
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: I have him at wide receiver sixteen, where he's ECR

41
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 2: at wide receiver twelve. I guess I'm just trying to

42
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: stay grounded with my take on a lave where not

43
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: trying to just copying paste exactly what he did last

44
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: year finishing as the wide receiver six and half PPR,

45
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 2: because you look at the first couple of years of

46
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 2: his career, he was a player that was going outside

47
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 2: and finishing outside the top twenty wide receiver, so he

48
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: was really more of a wide receiver too. And you

49
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 2: look at this past season, was it all because of

50
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 2: Tyler Schuck just kind of unlocking Chris Olive? I think

51
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 2: that's part of it, But it's also that he stayed healthy,

52
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 2: he played all of the games, and he also had

53
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: a career high in touchdowns, right, So chasing that touchdown

54
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 2: production sometimes leads.

55
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 3: You down a wrong path.

56
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: I know last year I was trying to push back

57
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 2: against a player like Terry McLaurin, where okay, he just

58
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 2: had this monster outlier touchdown season which he has never

59
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: done at any point in his career. Obviously, the holdout

60
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: the injuries played a role with Merytck McLaurin falling off,

61
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 2: but it.

62
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 3: Does kind of remind me a little bit of just kind.

63
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: Of, Okay, Jane Daniels, Terry McLaurin, your two quarterback going

64
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: to take this Ohio state wide receiver to the next

65
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: level for another season? Does that happen again with Tyler

66
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 2: Shuck and Chris o'lave. So that's where I'm just kind

67
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: of pressing pause a little bit of just getting two

68
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 2: ahead of my skis on Chris o'lave. Now, it does

69
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 2: work in his favor that after they traded away Rashihihid

70
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 2: and Schuck took over as the quarterback in the second

71
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 2: half of the season. I mean, like the production was fantastic,

72
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 2: seventeen points per game in half, he had PPR since

73
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 2: Week ten. I mean, that's top ten fantasy wide receiver production.

74
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: So totally understand where he is at ECR. But I

75
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 2: just have some hesitance with Tyler Schuck. Again, He's an

76
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 2: older prospect, entered the NFL as an older quarterback, and

77
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: I'm not so sure that he has so much more

78
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 2: room to grow given that he's already played so much football.

79
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 2: So that's kind of why I get a little bit concerned.

80
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: And I would say two the last thing. The last

81
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 2: two games for the Saints with Chris Olave is where

82
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: he really smashed, Like the last two week sixteen and seventeen,

83
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 2: he had two monster monster games. Devon Veiley didn't play

84
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: in either of those contests. So I do think that

85
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 2: if there is a full bell of health between some

86
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 2: of these other receivers in the Saints receiving court with

87
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: its Jwan Johnson Devon Veley, they seem like they want

88
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 2: him to take on a larger role after they Twayway

89
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 2: Rashid Shahid.

90
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 3: That's another concern.

91
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: But the big thing is nine touchdowns last year that

92
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: match nearly his career total entering the twenty twenty five season,

93
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 2: which was ten total touchdowns.

94
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 3: So that's why I'm just a little bit lower.

95
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 1: All right. I'm I think I'm a little bit closer

96
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: to you, but I'm not quite as high as ECR.

97
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: So I'm probably somewhere right in the middle there, which

98
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: is I think pretty good when it comes to griss

99
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: O Lave, you know, So I don't know about sixteen.

100
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: I think that's a little low. I think twelve is

101
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: a little high and probably more in that fourteen range

102
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 1: when it comes in just outside. He's a great one A.

103
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 1: That's what I think. I don't know if I'd love

104
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: him as my number one wide receiver, especially with this

105
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: concussion history as well. That's something to keep in mind

106
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: with Jake seal A Malik neighbors ranked very aggressively here

107
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: in the ECR, and to be honest with you, a

108
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: guy returning from ACL, I think that's something we should

109
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: maybe pump the brakes just a little bit in terms

110
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: of our enthusiasm. Do you agree it's.

111
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 4: Not just the ACL And the report is good that

112
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 4: he had to wait longer than expected to have the

113
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 4: surgery done, and now there's real questions of whether or

114
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 4: not I was going be ready for week one. There's

115
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 4: real questions that if he is ready for week one,

116
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,919
Speaker 4: is it going to be the Saquon Barkley when he

117
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 4: was a giant situation where we had to wait all

118
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 4: of September to get him back to one hundred percent?

119
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 1: Is it Chris.

120
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 4: Godwin where I mean that's worst case scenario where it's

121
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 4: all of a sudden like it's not happening. It's not happened,

122
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 4: and aggravate something else and we lose half the season.

123
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 4: And I know he's much younger, and I know there's

124
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 4: an optimism for it, but again we're talking about today.

125
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 4: There's a lot of questions right now as of today

126
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 4: for week one, so much so that as you guys

127
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 4: have seen, the most common thing that people are mocking

128
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 4: to them at the fifth pick is carneal Taate likely

129
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 4: is there are I mean, like you look at the

130
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 4: fact that a wide receiver is a need there, whether

131
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 4: or not one Dille Robinson is there because there's the

132
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 4: questions of Malik neighbors. So I just say, as of

133
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 4: right now, I'm gonna put him at thirteen, and honestly,

134
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 4: I don't know that that's not going to be lower,

135
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 4: just because if you guys knew today, hey, you have

136
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 4: to wait till October.

137
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 3: Cool.

138
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 4: This is the Rashi Rice situation. Like we've seen, we

139
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 4: can make up easier in September for the rest of

140
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 4: the season and we have opportunities or to our team

141
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 4: is healthy, bla blah blah blah. I get that, But

142
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 4: at the same time, it's four games potentially that you're

143
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 4: not gonna be able to start my leaku nighbors. Again,

144
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 4: I'm speculating, I'm just saying as of today, So I

145
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 4: just think there's enough concern that if you look at

146
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 4: the names in front of them, they don't have that question.

147
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 4: And that's really what it comes down to. Chris o'lave,

148
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 4: I have well in front of him. I'm different than

149
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 4: you guys on Chris Alave. So it really just comes

150
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 4: down to, I'd trust Nico Collins, I would trust Chris Alave,

151
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 4: I'd trust you know, down the list of Drake London

152
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 4: and even Pickens and Lamb on whether or not they're

153
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 4: on the same team, which they will be. So that

154
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 4: show really comes down to I just want those names

155
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 4: in front of it before I roll the dice on

156
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 4: somebody that might not be one hundred percent to start

157
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 4: the year.

158
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: All right, Andrew Erics said, let's walk through another name

159
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: that you have a little bit of a difference of

160
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: opinion than the expert consensus rankings, and that's Justin Jefferson. Obviously,

161
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson all world talent, but the quarterback position right

162
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: now possibly a question mark again going into twenty twenty six. Again,

163
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,239
Speaker 1: it's early in the process. We haven't hit free agency

164
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: yet as of recording this show. That comes in March,

165
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: and then of course we got the NFL Draft and

166
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: lots of other action to happen in the NFL. But

167
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: right now, that ranking is where it is, which is

168
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: number eight, and you have him a little bit lower.

169
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 1: Let's talk about it.

170
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have him at eleven, and it's really dependent

171
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 2: on who the quarterback in Minnesota is. I know that

172
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 2: we talked about last week on some of these free

173
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 2: agency prediction shows where jaj McCarthy or guys that are

174
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 2: going to lose their jobs. Is McCarthy even the quarterback

175
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 2: for Minnesota? That's probably good for Justin Jefferson. But what's

176
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: the alternative. Is it good we're getting Carson Wentz as

177
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 2: the quarterback? Are we getting Kyler Murray as the quarterback

178
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 2: in Minnesota? So there's a lot of things that still

179
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: need to play out to really feel confident about ranking

180
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson because the quarterback does matter. Now, he's been

181
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 2: quarterback proof up until jj McCarthy showed up in Minnesota,

182
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 2: so that does bode well for him to still get

183
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 2: I still have him ranked as a wide receiver one.

184
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 2: But just tempering expectations a little bit. Here wentz last year,

185
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 2: ninety five receiving arts per game, that's what Jefferson was at,

186
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: but he also scored zero touchdowns. The big thing and

187
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 2: talked about with a lobby having this massive touchdown output

188
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 2: last year total opposite with Jefferson where he had two

189
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 2: receiving touchdowns. So you'd like to think that that can

190
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 2: improve if the quarterback position can get a little bit

191
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 2: more stable in Minnesota. And when you look at Jefferson's

192
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: body of work, I mean, he's never finished worse than

193
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 2: wide receiver six in a full season play. He actually

194
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: scored more points in twenty twenty three when he only

195
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 2: played ten games than he did this past season, which

196
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,559
Speaker 2: just goes to show how bad it was for him

197
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: as wide receiver thirty and twenty twenty five. So I

198
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 2: still want to figure out who the quarterback is before

199
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 2: I feel a lot confident about puting Jefferson.

200
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 3: But right now, just a little bit lower.

201
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: And Jake, you have reservations about Jefferson as well. Where

202
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: do you have him right? Yeah?

203
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 4: Well, as Erickson love him because I him at twelve.

204
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 4: It really comes down to. We talked about it on

205
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 4: the Free agency show. You told me or you tell

206
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 4: me that Daniel Jones ends up being the option for

207
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 4: this team, and I know it's just Daniel Jones, but

208
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 4: we talked about that at the time and said, what

209
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 4: if the Vikings want to bring him back because they're

210
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 4: done with JJ McCarthy, which seems to be the report.

211
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 4: Everybody is saying that they're moving on from JJ McCarthy.

212
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,719
Speaker 4: But this unlike the carousel one the other way where

213
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,959
Speaker 4: it was like there's too many quarterbacks for the openings,

214
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 4: we have the reverse this year. We have too many

215
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 4: openings and not enough quarterbacks to fill these options, which

216
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 4: is probably why Daniel Jones is going to get a

217
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 4: huge payday because somebody wants them as somebody needs them.

218
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 4: What if the Vikings are left scrambling. What if they're

219
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 4: just left held in the bag. What if Daniel Jones

220
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 4: goes back to the Colts and they're looking at Russell

221
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 4: Wilson as their option to keep JJ McCarthy on this team.

222
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 4: Because everything Ericson said is right, he was actually if

223
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 4: you talk about qualified wide receivers, wide receiver thirty three

224
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 4: in points per game, and it was actually thirty sixth

225
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 4: with McCarthy. The only reason it wasn't worse is because

226
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 4: what he said is like the Wentz situation. The yards

227
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 4: were there, but the touchdowns weren't. So if he told

228
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 4: me he had a capable quarterback, hell, if he had

229
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 4: Carson Wentz, I'd move him up about two or three spots,

230
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 4: because at least one arm Wentz was doing things. But

231
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 4: if it's somebody like Daniel Jones, or they do find

232
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 4: an option, then I would actually put him back inside

233
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 4: the top ten. I don't think he'll get back to

234
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 4: be in top four for me, though, I don't think

235
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 4: he deserves to be in that top tier even. I mean,

236
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,959
Speaker 4: they would need a massive shock at quarterback to get

237
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 4: them back there.

238
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,679

Speaker 1: the bell to it, goes ding. Let's talk about this

251
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: second group from thirteen to twenty four in the ranks

252
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: for the expert consensus. AJ Brown, Philadelphia Eagle, question mark

253
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: at thirteen, Tenero McMillan off a hell of a rookie campaign.

254
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: Then you got Tea Agains at fifteen that goes through

255
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: the Tier three continuation from that top group. Then you

256
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 1: have Tier four beginning Garrett Wilson at sixteen, who the hell?

257
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: And that quarterback of the Jets we'll never know, DeVante

258
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: Adams at seventeen, Jamison Williams at eighteen, Lad McConkie disappointing

259
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 1: year at nineteen, Sey Flowers at twenty, Terry McLaurin at

260
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: twenty one, Jalen Wattle at twenty two, DeVonta Smith at

261
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: twenty three, Luther Burden at twenty four. Jake. What stakes

262
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: out What really sticks out to me about this grouping

263
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,719
Speaker 1: here is the amount of question marks. I gotta be

264
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: honest with you, like, there's so many questions in this tier. Typically,

265
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: this is a tier where I always go, all right, well,

266
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: i'm gonna get a couple of these guys and I

267
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: feel pretty good. But you can poke holes in almost

268
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: what ten out of twelve of these ranks right here,

269
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: and ask yourself, is this a good investment? So let's

270
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: talk about it in which investment here really varies the

271
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: most for you in terms of your ranking versus the consensus.

272
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is something we talked about all throughout the season,

273
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 4: whether on waivers or the Rank Show or the shows

274
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 4: you guys were on, you echoing the same things. That

275
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 4: wide receiver twos last year became more volatile than they

276
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 4: had been in probably what a decade. I mean, we're

277
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 4: talking about the inconsistencies across the board. If you got

278
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 4: fifty percent performances inside the top twenty, you're actually having

279
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 4: a pretty good wide receiver too. So I think there's

280
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 4: a lot of questions mine.

281
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 1: Actually, could you argue that that's because of the lesser

282
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: quarterback play? You know, we've seen we saw a big

283
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: turn last year towards more running the football from a

284
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: lot of teams, But do you think it's because of

285
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: some of the green quarterback play or the less than

286
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: thrilling quarterback play, Like, well, they can make one wide

287
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: receiver quality, but it takes a Matthew Stafford or somebody

288
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: of that level to make two on one team quality.

289
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 4: I think it's that, but more I think it's what

290
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 4: we're seeing this offseason from the massive the biggest coaching

291
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 4: change such like this offseason I started in twenty ten, Joe,

292
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 4: and I was right, You're right about the same time.

293
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 1: This is twenty twelve.

294
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, the biggest off season coaching movement I've seen in

295
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 4: my career, and a lot of it involved offensive coordinators.

296
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 4: I think there's a lot of poor game plans called.

297
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 4: I think there's a lot of mistakes with using the

298
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 4: quarterback and not getting the best out of them. And

299
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 4: then it's also the fact that because we went from

300
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 4: arguing for years that wide receiver was so deep, but

301
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 4: now that's become its own crutch because now the wide

302
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 4: receiver threes are so good that they don't need to

303
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 4: rely on the wide receiver twos for twenty four percent

304
00:12:58,160 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 4: of the target share. They can mix and match and

305
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 4: eighteen and twelve and between those two options. So I

306
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 4: think there's just a lot of factors, including the one

307
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 4: that you said, the quarterback fall off, which is why

308
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 4: you saw more run games, and also the quarterback injuries.

309
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 4: But anyway, speaking of one, we just saw the worst

310
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 4: year of Devonte Smith's career with Jalen Hurts and this

311
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 4: entire offense, and I'm still a little bit lower on him.

312
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 4: I actually think he's a great BILO in Dynasty, but

313
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 4: I have him three spots below because I look at

314
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 4: it the fact of, yeah, we're assuming aj Brown's done

315
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 4: with the Eagles, but what if he's not. What if

316
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 4: they bring back Dallas Goddart too, And it just comes

317
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 4: down to what we've been talking about with wide receiver

318
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 4: twos is that Devonte Smith, even at his best, was

319
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 4: sixty percent of his games were top fifteen. The others

320
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 4: were wide receiver forty five. And you just got to

321
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 4: deal with that roller coaster. So I love him on

322
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 4: my team as my wide receiver three. I just don't

323
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 4: really want to get him as my wide receiver two.

324
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 4: And that's why I bring him up. It's not a

325
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 4: huge difference, there's only three spots, but I did want

326
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 4: to talk about it for that. The other one is

327
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 4: if you watch the show with Joe and Me the

328
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 4: other day with Wakwan, We've already talked about it. With

329
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 4: Luther Burden, it just comes down to we're stuck as

330
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 4: of today, and the Bears are the ones that are stuck.

331
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 4: They can't get rid of DJ Moore. Maybe they figure

332
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 4: out a way to trade them and figure out something

333
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 4: with There's a lot of money that they're still on

334
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 4: the hook for if they do trade them. But if

335
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 4: they clear out DJ Moore and it is just Roma

336
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 4: Donzey and Luthor Burden, but still Colston Lovelin, I'll move

337
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 4: them up. But Luther Burdon at twenty two feels like

338
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 4: what we're talking about with here with the Fonte Smith.

339
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 4: If you add in one extra factor like Goddart and

340
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 4: a good run game like it, just the volumes just

341
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 4: got is the biggest concern is we just saw with

342
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 4: Smith and Colston Lovelin just had a massive breakdown at

343
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 4: the end of the year. So why do we just

344
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 4: assume that like Luther Burnon And this is coming from

345
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 4: one of the biggest fans about Luther Burnon, Joe, you

346
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 4: and I talked about it on that show. I just

347
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 4: don't see where a healthy room with Doonza with Colston

348
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 4: Lovelan in the second season is going to get the

349
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 4: volume to have a top twenty five finish. So I

350
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 4: have him as a wide receiver three.

351
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 1: That's a great show too. We did a sophomore kind

352
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: of recap for all the guys. Where rookies last year

353
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: going into their second year and what our expectations are.

354
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: Lawan Jones, myself, Jake Seely checking out of the chat.

355
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: Excellent show, super fun, Andrew walk us through two of

356
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: your picks here that you want to single out here.

357
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: I know Devonte Adams is a guy you want to

358
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: talk about. Another guy another year older, had a great season,

359
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns. Age is it always on the

360
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: table necessarily for twenty twenty six. So let's start with

361
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: him and then walk me through another difference of your ranking.

362
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm coming out with all these wide receivers that

363
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 2: I'm much lower on than the consensus. So bringing the

364
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: negativity here on this show, Devanta Adams I have basically

365
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 2: buried He's outside my top twenty four wide receivers just

366
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: because I'm just trying to get.

367
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 3: Ahead of it. Right.

368
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 2: He is a wide receiver entering his age thirty three

369
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 2: year old season, miss time last year with a lower

370
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: body tissue injury, and all of his production for the

371
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 2: most part, was touchdown based, and we know that can

372
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 2: be the toughest thing that sticks from year to year,

373
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 2: especially when you look at Matthew Stafford again, he still

374
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 2: has this back injury lingering that could pop up at

375
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 2: any moment next year.

376
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 3: What happens if he's go down.

377
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 2: They don't have Jimy Garoppolo as their backup anymore potentially,

378
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 2: So what would the alternative be for the Rams if

379
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 2: Stafford were to miss time and Adams the efficiency marks

380
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 2: were not great last year career low catch rate at

381
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 2: fifty three percent, and talked about the touchdowns. He had

382
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 2: fifteen touchdowns, and this was part of their game plan

383
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 2: and strategy, like, let's get Devontae Adams the ball in

384
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 2: the red zone. You look at his red zone targets,

385
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 2: his end zone targets. He is lapping the field with

386
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 2: ranking number one in those categories. It's bunkers. And I

387
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 2: think part of that is, Hey, we want to get

388
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford the MVP, right, We want to have to

389
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 2: have him as many touchdowns as possible. Who's our best

390
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 2: touchdown guy, Devonte Adams. So if they're not as focused

391
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 2: on that and it's more about let's keep Stafford healthy,

392
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 2: maybe we'll feature the running backs a little bit more

393
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 2: in the red zone between Kien Williams and Blake Korum.

394
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 2: That makes a lot more sense to me. And you

395
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 2: see that this fifteen touchdown score maybe turns into six touchdowns,

396
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: And I think that dramatically influences where Adams would finish

397
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 2: because at this point in his career, not creating yards

398
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 2: up to the catch, career lowing yards up to the

399
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 2: catch per reception. So I think it's more likely that

400
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 2: he falls off than replicates last year production. So even

401
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 2: at wide receiver seventeen, I think this is a really

402
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 2: risky pick. And I think that you're hoping, oh he

403
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: finished as a back end wide receiver two, but I

404
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 2: paid mid range wide receiver two price for him. So

405
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,879
Speaker 2: I've got major concerns about Adams where he's going at seventeen.

406
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: All right, So Adam's a concern for you. Let's talk

407
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: about another wide receiver here is Day Flowers. So where

408
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: do you stand on Za Flowers heading into first year

409
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: with a new head coach for him, and who knows

410
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 1: what this offense might look like.

411
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 3: Oh, it's going to cook. That's what this offense is

412
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 3: going to look like. In say, Flowers is going to

413
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 3: be the focal point of this offense. Because I think

414
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 3: that Jay Flowers is just that good.

415
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 2: I think that he has the talent to be a

416
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 2: top five fantasy wide receiver when you look at last

417
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 2: year over twelve hundred yards, eighty six catches, and yes,

418
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 2: what's the thing that we all get annoyed at only

419
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 2: five touchdowns? But he was still wide receiver seven, wide

420
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 2: receiver three over the last five games, super consistent four

421
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 2: plus catches and thirteen of his seventeen games played. But

422
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 2: the metric numbers fifth and target share at twenty eight percent,

423
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 2: eleventh in air yard share at thirty five percent. He

424
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 2: has gotten better every single year he's been in the

425
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 2: NFL fourth and yards per out run behind only Houka Nikuwa,

426
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: Jacksonbith and Jigba. Where are those guys in the Tier

427
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 2: A number one and two? And Luther Burden who we

428
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 2: hate here, but that's okay, we won't draft him, but

429
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 2: he's probably gonna be decent in twenty twenty six, so.

430
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,360
Speaker 1: We don't hate, Yeah, right, I think I think Jake,

431
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: Jake's just right like Loveland's there. DJ Moore is gonna

432
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: be hard to get rid of it. Just to be

433
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 1: where the rank is just seems like it would have

434
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 1: to be the perfect storm of economy of targets, and

435
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: that just seems unlikely.

436
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 3: No, And I don't put it this way.

437
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 4: If you told me that DJ Moore was gone and

438
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 4: O Doonsay was stout dealing with it, I was gonna say,

439
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 4: and Donsay is still dealing with injury concerns a week one.

440
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 4: You put him up there with krysal Love like that's how.

441
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: Good he is.

442
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 4: But it's just the fact. And let's also forget, not

443
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 4: forget KILLI Williams still didn't even throw for four thousand

444
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 4: yards like we're still talking about.

445
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: Because no bare quarterback will ever throw forever.

446
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: Earned this already go ahead, fer it can never It

447
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 2: can never be a Flowers you started. It always has

448
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 2: to get pushed into something else. But I would say,

449
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 2: because we talked about Za Flowers myself, Worm and Jake

450
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 2: earlier this year, and I got some pushback on Za Flowers,

451
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 2: but at that time Harbaugh was still the offensive early

452
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: head coach, Uh Monken was still the offensive coordinator. Now

453
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 2: that has completely changed, So the Ravens have a brand

454
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 2: new officieve coordinator coming in Declan Doyle. I think that

455
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 2: opens the possibilities of increased play volume and increased red

456
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 2: zone role for Say Flowers, which has been the biggest

457
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 2: thing lacking in his three year career up to this point.

458
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 2: Ravens last year were twenty ninth in place per game.

459
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 2: The Bears, that's where Decklan Doyle was the officive coordinator.

460
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 2: Last season under Ben Johnson ranked first in that category,

461
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 2: and the first thing that Declan Doyle said in an

462
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 2: interview recently was offensively, we want to hunt and create

463
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 2: explosive plays on offense. Her player profiler the third most

464
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 2: explosive player among wide receivers last year, mister Za Flowers himself,

465
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 2: and I don't even think I had to convince anybody

466
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 2: how explosive he is when he gets the ball in

467
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 2: his hands. So I think that this could be a

468
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 2: monster year for Jay Flowers. He finally gets a little

469
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 2: bit more usage in the red zone. He's attached to

470
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 2: a MVP level quarterback who we know can throw thirty

471
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 2: plus passing touchdowns. If Mark Andrews continues to decline, Isaiah

472
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 2: likely leaves in free agency. I think the Plant's can

473
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 2: align forse Flowers, so I want to be aggressive on

474
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 2: him because I think that he's an ascending talent entering

475
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 2: year four. To me, he remind me a lot of

476
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 2: Antonio Brown coming out of college. What year to Antonio Brown?

477
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 2: Absolutely blow up was his fourth season. So I love

478
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 2: Zay Flowers and I want to be aggressively ranking him

479
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 2: ahead of ECR.

480
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break in the action

481
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 1: to tell you about our sponsor, hard Rock Bet. Today's

483
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: And I know it's tough. There's no football and you're

484
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 1: listening us talk about football. You're saying I wish there

485
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: was football. Well that's okay. There's other things that can

486
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: occupy your time like hoops, hockey, and so much more.

487
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: Plus all the great same game parlay, live betting action

488
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: and player props on hard Rock Bet. And did you

489
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: know that hard Rock Bet is the official sports betting

490
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: partner of the Miami Heat and the Orlando Magic, so

491
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: they know their basketball and if you haven't signed up

492
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: yet with hard Rock Bet, there's even a better time

493
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: than now. Nope, there isn't. New sign ups can double

494
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: their winnings with their first ten bets max at fifty dollars.

495
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: That's right. So if you would have won one hundred

496
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: bucks in your bet, you make it two hundred. That's math.

497
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,880
Speaker 1: That's called doubling. And the hard Rock Bet Sportsbook gap

518
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: starting at twenty five, we got Mike Evans, and then

519
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,439
Speaker 1: Tier five begins. Mike Evans is returning, by the way

520
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty six, Christian Watson at twenty six, Courtland

521
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 1: Sutton at twenty seven, Carnell Tate incredible young talent from

522
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: Ohio State. The early rank for him is twenty eight

523
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: overall after Courtland Sutton at twenty seven, then a Mecca

524
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: Egbuca at twenty nine, dk Metcalf at thirty, Roman dunes

525
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: A at thirty one, Jordan Tyson and Mackay Lemon two

526
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 1: of the big prospects at thirty two and thirty three, respectively,

527
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: Ryan Thomas Junior, great rookie season, terrible sophomore year at

528
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 1: thirty four, and then Jacoby Myers at thirty five, Marvin

529
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 1: Harrison Junior at thirty six, Andrew Let's talk about a

530
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: Mecca egg Buka, the difference of your rank first ECR.

531
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 2: I'm higher on a Mecca abuka as well versus the

532
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: ECR one hundred and twenty six targets last year that

533
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: was top ten in the NFL and a rare number

534
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 2: to hit for a lot of rookie wide receivers. The

535
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 2: last rookies that have done that Lak Neighbors, Brian Thomas Junior,

536
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 2: Lab mcconky Rashie.

537
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 3: Rice Puku Nakua, Garrett Wilson.

538
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 2: It's a really strong list of players projecting them Okay,

539
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 2: how are their careers going to shake out? It's been

540
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: pretty positive for the most part for some of those guys.

541
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 2: Now we know that some of the second year guys

542
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: did not meet expectations. Between Brian Thomas Junior and Lam mcconkay,

543
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 2: last your neighbors obviously got hurt, but I just don't

544
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 2: want to ignore the fact that he got so many

545
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 2: targets last year, and what if the production at flipped.

546
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,159
Speaker 2: So I know that he started season really really strong,

547
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 2: did not finish as strongly as we have liked it hoped,

548
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 2: But I don't want to just forget about what happened

549
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 2: in the beginning of the year when he was melting faces.

550
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,719
Speaker 2: When Baker Mayfield was healthy, like Guka was essentially a

551
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 2: lock for Offensive Rookie of the Year, we weren't even

552
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: considering any of the running backs. Teedra McMillan was buried

553
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 2: in terms of the betting odds for Offensive Rookie of

554
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 2: the Year. If Mike Evans potentially walking in free agency

555
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 2: going somewhere else, I'm not sure why he wants to

556
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 2: leave Tamba Bay and that no income tax in Florida,

557
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 2: But I mean, I think book could be really set

558
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 2: up here to take another step forward here, bounce back

559
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 2: look like the guy we saw at the beginning of

560
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 2: the year, especially if Baker Mayfield is healthy, because I

561
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 2: think that's the biggest impact on why Aguka struggled down

562
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 2: the stretch.

563
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 3: Was his quarterbacks one hundred percent healthy?

564
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: All right, Jake. The ECR is low on Brian Thomas

565
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 1: at thirty four but you're even lower because you have

566
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: him at forty.

567
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 5: Yeah.

568
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 4: I think Brian Thomas is a great opportunity for the

569
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 4: Jaguars in real life to find a new spot for

570
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 4: him and capitalize them, you know, the investment of the talent,

571
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 4: because we saw it as the rookie and you know,

572
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 4: you know, I was one of the highest and continue

573
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 4: to be one of the highest last year. That's why

574
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 4: I got to sign football next to me. And it

575
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 4: was a massive disappointment for me and everybody else. And

576
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 4: I sat here and made apologies for him to begin

577
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 4: the season because of the injury to his hand, and

578
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 4: that looked like he was limited and scaring him over

579
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 4: the middle, and he didn't want to take extra contact,

580
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 4: and they said, all right, well he needs more time

581
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 4: to develop with Trevor Lawrence, and we saw flashes of it.

582
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 4: But the biggest thing here is that Parker Washington did

583
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 4: what Trevor Lawrence loves to do and just manifested his

584
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 4: ability out of the slot. And that's where Lawrence loves

585
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,199
Speaker 4: to go. He loves to make the quick decision. He

586
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 4: does take shots downfield. But when Parker Washington came on

587
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 4: back healthy at the end of the season, the average

588
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 4: depth of target skyrocketed for Brian Thomas Junior. It was

589
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 4: almost fifty percent higher. I mean, we're talking about almost

590
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 4: Alec Pierce levels. And it's just when you're taking those shots.

591
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 4: As one, Trevor Warrens doesn't need to throw it there,

592
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 4: so the volume wasn't there because he's already making this

593
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 4: decision throwing at the Jacoby Myers and Parker Washington and

594
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 4: Print and Strange or going to the backfield. So the

595
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 4: volume went down, and then the Colleensian percentage went down,

596
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 4: just because those.

597
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 1: Are harder targets to catch.

598
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 4: And if this roster is constructed as it is as

599
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 4: of today, Jacoby Myers is back, he has a new contract.

600
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 4: Parker Washington's essentially the number two. Hell, you could argue

601
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 4: he was the number one at the end of the season.

602
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 4: So I love Brian Thomas Junior. I love the talent,

603
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 4: I love the kid, I love the football, and put

604
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 4: him on a new team on the Jaguars. He does

605
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:53,719
Speaker 4: not deserve to be higher. That's why I have him

606
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 4: yet as wide receiver forty.

607
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he might find a new home this offseason.

608
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,199
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Rome Dunesey because we're talking about the

609
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: whole Bear situation here the ECRs thirty one, but Andrew Rickson,

610
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,160
Speaker 1: you have him a little bit lower. Let's talk about

611
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: your reasons why all.

612
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 2: Pass lead back to Luther Burden in some way somehow.

613
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 2: I think that Burden can be the potential focal point

614
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 2: of the passing game, along with Coleston Lovelin and Ben

615
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 2: Johnson hand picked these guys first two draft picks he

616
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 2: made as the head coach of the Bears.

617
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 3: I'm drafting Coles. Loved it, and I'm drafting Luther Burdon.

618
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 2: Although it took a lot longer than most of us

619
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 2: wanted it to for those guys to see featured roles

620
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 2: on offense, because I had to play guys like Olim

621
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 2: Dizechiis Cole Cole, Matt was still on the co comett

622
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 2: Is still on the roster. Eventually, those guys started to

623
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 2: break out in the second half of the year and

624
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 2: were both highly efficient, very productive players on a per

625
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 2: route basis.

626
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 3: So yeah, so Dunes.

627
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 2: They did play through a lot of injuries last year,

628
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 2: and that I think was part of the reason why

629
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 2: his production NOS dived and twelve games. Dealing with some

630
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 2: late season foot limitations. After Week eight, he averaged under

631
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 2: fifty yards per game. His catch rate was really really bad,

632
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 2: was bottom five in the NFL four already eight point

633
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 2: five percent catch rate. Now, he still did gobble up

634
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 2: a lot of high value opportunities in terms of air yards,

635
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 2: terms of red zone targets, but ultimately still kind of

636
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 2: felt short of expectations based on the role that he

637
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 2: was put into wide receiver twenty seven in points per game.

638
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 2: So I do think he will move up my rankings

639
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 2: from wide receiver thirty seven if DG. Moore ultimately does

640
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 2: get dealt, which I do think is going to happen.

641
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 2: But I guess I am more on the negative side

642
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 2: of a Donesay and less so on Luther Burden. On

643
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 2: just projecting how this offense looks in twenty twenty six,

644
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 2: I would bet that Burden has more targets than Oldonsay

645
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 2: straight up.

646
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 3: So that's why I would rank him head of Odunza.

647
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: You're a little bit more positive on Marvin Harrison Jake,

648
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: He's at thirty six, but you have him at thirty two.

649
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: Let's discuss the reasons why you think he might be

650
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,640
Speaker 1: a better situation for him this season than last.

651
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 4: So I'm buying Marvin Harrison everywhere I can because it's

652
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,239
Speaker 4: the perception. It's the massive disappointment of, you know, a

653
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 4: Tier one wide receiver, and then all the flaws that

654
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 4: we consider were even greater and exposed with Kyler Murray

655
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 4: and the continue of this offense. Jacoby Brissett unlocked everybody,

656
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 4: Michael Wilson, Trey McBride. He also went to Marvin Harrison

657
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 4: junior more than Michael Wilson and peppered him the opportunity

658
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 4: you had. It was brief, but when Marvin Harrison was

659
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 4: close to one hundred percent towards the end of the

660
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 4: year and they're moving on from Kyler Murray, if Jacobe

661
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 4: persays the quarterback next year, I know everybody's super excited

662
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 4: about Michael Wilson, somebody that I like coming out of

663
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 4: college as a deep sleeper, but Marvin Harrison was still

664
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 4: the one. And I still think that Marvin Harrison has

665
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 4: a better upside than being wide receiver. Thirty six, we're

666
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 4: that upset with him, Like I'm gonna buy Marvin Harrison

667
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 4: in Redraft and Dynasty.

668
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,679
Speaker 1: All right. Next grouping here starting at thirty seven is

669
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: Tier six Chris Godwin, Stefan Diggs at thirty eight, Ricky

670
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: Piersoll thirty nine, Michael Wilson at forty, Michael Pittman at

671
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: forty one, Alec Pierce at forty two, Jordan Addison at

672
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: forty three, Quintin Johnson at forty four, j One Jennings,

673
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,239
Speaker 1: Parker Washington, DJ Moore at forty seven, Wandale Robinson at

674
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: forty eight. Jake, let's talk about Wandale Robinson the easy

675
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: RS forty eight, but you are much more excited about

676
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 1: his POTENTI you have him all the way up at

677
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: thirty three. Let's talk about this massive gap.

678
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 4: It just comes down to what we're seeing is that

679
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 4: somebody is going to pay him to be a top

680
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 4: two option on their team, whether it's back with the Giants,

681
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 4: whether it's reunited with Brian Dable and ruins my later

682
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 4: pick that we're going to talk about with the Titans.

683
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 4: There's just an opportunity for Wandell to step into a

684
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 4: Stephan Diggs type role with another team. And I'm not

685
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 4: calling them Stephan Diggs. I'm just saying it's that role

686
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 4: as the two in any offense that's going to pay

687
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 4: in that kind of money to immediately be the two

688
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 4: we're talking about that similar volume, and Wandell Robinson's continued

689
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 4: to be disrespected because of his size and the fact

690
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 4: of look at how much he produces on a deep

691
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 4: bowl rate even with his size. I think he is

692
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 4: underrated in somebody that could be a top as you

693
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 4: can see, thirty thirty five wide receiver at worst, with

694
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 4: potential for even more depending on that. Now, of course,

695
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 4: the landing spot can ruin. It depend like he goes

696
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 4: to a team that's clogged up. But I think somebody's

697
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 4: going to pay him to be their number two, and

698
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 4: whether it's a return to the Giants, he's going to

699
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 4: pull back on that value. Is a top thirty five wide.

700
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 1: Receiver, Andrew, you have him higher as well, not quite

701
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: as high as Jake, but he gaves sentiments clearly.

702
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 2: I hate what even though every time I publish my rankings,

703
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 2: it always comes up with that notification are you.

704
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 3: Sure you want to rank?

705
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: Why? I love that.

706
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 2: It's like a heads up, yeah right, It's like, yes,

707
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 2: I want to keep ranking Wandelle Robinson this high. The

708
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 2: only wide receivers with at least one hundred and thirty

709
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 2: plus targets last two seasons, Jamar Chase, I'm on Ross

710
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 2: Saint Brown Jackson's and Jigba Justin Jefferson and Wondelle Robinson.

711
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 3: It's underrated, all.

712
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: Right, so underrated Wandell Robinson ericson, let's talk about Quentin

713
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: Johnston here. ECR is forty four, but you are not

714
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: nearly as excited about him. You have him at fifty six.

715
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: That's a twelve spot difference.

716
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 3: I'm just not sure I'm ready for this to ride

717
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 3: the roller coaster.

718
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 2: Again with Quinn Johnson, because man, that's exactly what it is.

719
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 2: Starts out this year or last season out of the

720
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 2: gates on fire, and then he just has these certain

721
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 2: games where just totally disappears when he was basically used

722
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: more as a deep threat, kind of a clear out

723
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 2: routes and they were featuring more of the tight end

724
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 2: and La McConkey underneath. Now, I think I could probably

725
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 2: still move him up a little bit from fifty six,

726
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 2: just because you're taking such a big target monster out

727
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 2: of this offense with Keenan Allen. Presuming that he doesn't

728
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 2: come back, and if they don't add anybody of significance,

729
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 2: I could see Okay, Johnston Boomer bust wide receiver four. Yes,

730
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 2: I want him in basket ball? Do I want him anywhere?

731
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 2: I redraft team like, probably not. But that's kind of

732
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 2: the way I'm viewing Johnson's just so Boomer Buskin wide

733
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 2: receiver twenty six and points per game, which would say, like, man,

734
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 2: you have him outside your top fifty, that's crazy, but

735
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 2: wide receiver forty two expected points per game, just based

736
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: on his usage against a brand new office Mike McDaniel. So,

737
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 2: I think Spike Week is going to come for Johnston,

738
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 2: but I am concerned that the consistency is going to

739
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 2: be all over the place.

740
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: All right, Jake, You've got Ricky Piersall at thirty one,

741
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: but the ECRs A thirty nine. I'm actually kind of

742
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 1: where you are. The health of Ricky Piersoll has been

743
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: difficult to dealorustraate two years. Yes, very but with George Kittle,

744
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 1: you know, not ready for the start of the season

745
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: or god knows when in the season. It does seem

746
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: like there's a path for Ricky pearsoon to really take

747
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: his game to the next level.

748
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, And Juwan Jennings is a free agent. Brian and

749
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 4: Ayuk's not coming back to this team. So if you

750
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 4: one of the thing that we saw with Ricky Pearsall,

751
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 4: as I know this is frustrating to say, and I'm

752
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 4: going to say the words, but when healthy, he was

753
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 4: majorly productive. He looked like it coming back from injuries.

754
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 4: And we all joked about how it took him longer

755
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 4: to come back from an actual injury than the gunshot wound.

756
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 4: But like when he finally did and he was one

757
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 4: hundred percent out there, he looked like he was one

758
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 4: hundred percent. And Ricky Pearson in this offense, especially the

759
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 4: Shanahan system, he does a lot of what Deebo used

760
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 4: to do for this team. Obviously not with the Russian

761
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 4: out of the backfield, but I bring it out to

762
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 4: say is that he can do things inside, intermediate and

763
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 4: outside to a time, more so exposing the space in

764
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:50,719
Speaker 4: the intermediate.

765
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 1: Side of the field.

766
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 4: But Pearsall essentially is the number one right now for

767
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 4: the forty nine ers. I know they're going to address it,

768
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 4: whether they bring back Jennians or find a different free

769
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 4: agent option. But you brought up George Kittle. I made

770
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 4: the joke on the other show as we finished things

771
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 4: out that Jake tonjas was going to be a top

772
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 4: twenty tight end. I have him as a top twenty

773
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 4: tight end because I don't think George Kittle's playing at

774
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,720
Speaker 4: least half, if not the entire season. But who's the beneficiary,

775
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 4: Ricky piersoll More people should be on Pearsil for next year.

776
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 4: I know he's burned us with the injuries.

777
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: All right. So the last grouping here, as we round

778
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: out the top sixty wide receivers, you have at forty

779
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: nine Jayden Higgins, who I'm very high on personally this

780
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 1: year at fifty Travis Hunter fifty one. Tyreek Hill was

781
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,719
Speaker 1: now a free agent to Khalil Shakir. At fifty two,

782
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 1: Jayden Reid fifty three. At fifty four, Brandon Ayuk will

783
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: see where he lands. Deebo Samuel at fifty five, Xavier

784
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: Worthy of fifty six, Josh Downs at fifty seven, Jalen

785
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: Cocher another one of my guys, circle him at fifty eight,

786
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: Troy Franklin to fifty nine. At sixty Aden I Mitchell

787
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: of the New York Jets. So Jake, let's start with

788
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel Ecars got him at fifty five. You've got

789
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 1: him at forty four. Let's talk about the reasons.

790
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 4: Why, because you know, you saw what happened last year

791
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 4: and Deebo Samuel, like again somebody else that wasn't always

792
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 4: one hundred percent healthy. But he's still getting back to

793
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 4: being like the production that we saw when healthy, when

794
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 4: with a good quarterback, Like that's just the biggest problem

795
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 4: that really killed him last year. And I'm not expecting

796
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 4: Deebo Samuel. Look youre talking about I him at forty four,

797
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 4: not thirty four, not twenty four. I don't think we're

798
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 4: ever getting old Deebo Samuel back. But similar to the

799
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 4: revitalization that we saw with Stefan Diggs with the Patriots,

800
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 4: I think you could find Deebo Samuel on the right

801
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 4: team in a similar situation. And I think that's what

802
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 4: it's going to come down to. If he ends up

803
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,399
Speaker 4: in a bad spot, if he ends up the third

804
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 4: wide receiver on a team and he's just searching for deals,

805
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 4: obviously you can throw this out the window and fifty

806
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 4: five is more of the reasonable spot. But I'm kind

807
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 4: of buying on the expectation that we still saw something left.

808
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: In the tank.

809
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 4: Last year. We still saw that he could click with

810
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 4: Jaden Daniels. I think it's just a quarterback situation in

811
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 4: the offense that just really killed him. So I want

812
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 4: Debel in a nice spot. But again, this is just

813
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 4: this is just a hope on that there's something left

814
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 4: in him.

815
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,400
Speaker 1: All right, Josh downs is at fifty seven, but Andrew Erickson,

816
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 1: you've got him at forty one. Why so?

817
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 2: I think josh Awen's good. I think he's a very

818
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 2: good underrated wide receiver. Does he have the best usage? No,

819
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 2: not quite, But I want to look for a value

820
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 2: with some talent this down the ranks in terms of

821
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 2: the wide receivers. PFF's twentie highest graded wide receiver last

822
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 2: year hyper targeted twenty four percent target rate per out run,

823
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 2: a very high rate for a wide receiver that led

824
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 2: all Colts wide receivers and tight ends in twenty twenty five. So,

825
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 2: amid all that talent between Tyler Warren, Alec Pierce, Michael

826
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 2: Pittman Junior, when Josh Dollens is on the field, which

827
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 2: again he's a slot receiver, so he's not on the

828
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 2: field enough, but he was the one being targeted at

829
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 2: the highest clip twentieth in average separation score that's per

830
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 2: Fantasy Points data suite. So looking at the objects of

831
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 2: this Colts offense, Alf Pearce is a free agent, he

832
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 2: might not be on this roster. When we're talking about

833
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 2: this team in twenty twenty six, Michael Pittman Junior is

834
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 2: in the last year of his contract, and every time

835
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 2: I look at anything newsworthy with Pittman, it's are they

836
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 2: going to cut this guy right? Because they're trying to

837
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 2: get out from his contract and move on to some

838
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 2: of these younger wide receivers potentially get rid of Pittman

839
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 2: so they can pay Michael or Alec Pierce. So I

840
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 2: think Josh Dowens is kind of flying under the radar. Yeah,

841
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 2: like the fantasy productions on there, but all of the

842
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 2: peripheral metrics he commands targets.

843
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 3: He looks good on.

844
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,279
Speaker 2: The field, He creates separations like check check check. This guy,

845
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 2: I think is much better than wide receiver fifty seven

846
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: when it comes to his talent level, and I think

847
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 2: that the way that this roster might shake out, it

848
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 2: might work in his favor to produce more Fantasy points.

849
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 2: Especially now too, you're getting a discount because the Daniel

850
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 2: Jones injury.

851
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: All right, Brandon Ayuk is at fifty four Andrew on

852
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,479
Speaker 1: the expert consensus rankings, but you have him at forty eight.

853
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,879
Speaker 1: That's simply because you're just I assume, anticipating a new

854
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: address for him in twenty twenty six.

855
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 2: Yes, he's going to the Washington Commanders to play with

856
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 2: jayde Daniels, his former college quarterback. I really think that's

857
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 2: the only spot that a team would be willing to

858
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,239
Speaker 2: take him on. I mean, after how things shook out

859
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 2: with Kyle Shannan in San Francisco, I basically just like,

860
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 2: stop showing up to work like you're really gonna have

861
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 2: Someone's gonna have to have a vote of confidence for Brandon.

862
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 2: I you have to bring him into the building. And

863
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 2: I think that going to Washington would be a perfect

864
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 2: spot for him. You pair him along with Terry McLaurin,

865
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 2: who's not a certified Alpha number one. It's you could

866
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 2: also be dropped into that offense. Replace Deebo Samuel as

867
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 2: the wide receiver too, or the one B to Terry.

868
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 3: Mclaurin's one A.

869
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 2: And look, man, this guy's really talented and him and

870
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 2: Kyle Shannon's seem never see et I from the minute

871
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 2: that he landed in San Francisco, but despite that, he

872
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 2: had very good seasons of really high efficiency. Again, he's

873
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 2: completely removed from that ACL injury that knocked him out

874
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 2: all of last year, even though like maybe he was

875
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 2: actually healthy enough to come back, so full bill of health.

876
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 2: Jane Daniels quarterback upgrade, better situation. I think you could

877
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 2: be someone that would looking at and be like, man,

878
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 2: this guy had like a George Pickens esque type of

879
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 2: impact where kind of disgruntled, we don't really feel about him,

880
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 2: but you watch him play on the field, Man, this

881
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 2: guy's good.

882
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 1: That's interesting. I like that comparison to in the right spot,

883
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,320
Speaker 1: Like you know, George Pickens led it with Dak Prescott.

884
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 1: That worked out right. If it Brandon Yuglans with Jayden

885
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 1: Daniels or another quarterback of that ILK, that could be

886
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:59,399
Speaker 1: a very tantalizing possibility. In twenty twenty six, Jake, you've

887
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: got a guy in the top sixty who isn't ranked

888
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: in the top sixty. You've got Chim Ray Dkkay who

889
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,879
Speaker 1: is at sixty three and the rank for him right

890
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 1: now is at fifty four for Jake Seally. So let's

891
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: talk about what you see in chim.

892
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 4: Ray, I see, like I said, what could get ruined

893
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 4: by Wandell Robinson signing with the Titans. But if he

894
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 4: doesn't and they go to the Alec Pierce route or

895
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 4: somewhere ore else and then look for the deeper option

896
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 4: to fill what Ayum Manner hasn't been able to do.

897
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 4: DK is essentially what Wandell Robinson can.

898
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: Do for this offense.

899
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,400
Speaker 4: And you saw the volume was more consistent towards the

900
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 4: end of the year. He started getting some touchdowns. The

901
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 4: yards were never enormous, but again Brian Dable coming in,

902
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 4: we saw the improvement from cam Ward. And if you're

903
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,320
Speaker 4: looking for somebody who can fill that kind of role.

904
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 4: With Brian Dabele calling this offense, I think DK is

905
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 4: not a perfect one for one, but very close to

906
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 4: Wandel Robinson this offense. It all comes down to that

907
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 4: they leave him alone and address the deeper threat the

908
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 4: outside wide receiver, or they bring Wandell over because he's

909
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 4: comfortable with Dabele and then you kind of throw DK

910
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 4: out the window.

911
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,440
Speaker 1: Unfortunately. All right, that is a quick look at the

912
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 1: top sixty wide receivers. Again, you can see them for
