Welcome to the Fantasy Footballers Dynasty Podcast with Borg Bets and a Baller.
Welcome in.
It's Wednesday, September, third week ones. Here on the Fennas Footballers Dynasty Podcast. I'm your host kab Organoni and I am joined by Matthew Betts and Mike about to take a victory lap for Rico Doddle.
Right, no, no, no, no, no, no.
This is the place, boys, because I just shared another piece of Rico Dawdle prop againda with our channel because these two compadres, they are with me riding through through Dowbdele season and it has just it has now grown to this place of now it has to work. Like the the the entire thesis of backing Rico Dowdell since the offseason has been the Cowboys are going to have a strong offense, and I think that Zeke is dust for being a running back.
But it's just, guys, we it.
Is an overwhelming amount now of like it's just me pushing Rico Dowdell and and it's he's still Rico Dowdell. Like at the end of the day, it is still Rico Daudell. The player has to have improved so much for the upcoming opportunity. Everything for Rico was just the opportunity is going to be there, and I think he can beat out a dusted running back.
But now we are, Oh, we're in over our heads now, boys.
What's great about Rico Daddle is you know, the argument against him is like he's your Godaddell, so this is gonna go.
And yeah, which is a strong argument.
I loved Mike, you weren't on the show, and we talked to Jason about this, but we were mentioning, like, if you didn't watch, you know, the live show in La on YouTube, go do it. But I was just reminiscing and like, my favorite part of your argument was the opening line of look, he's only twenty six, which is the biggest red flag in the world in and of itself. Well, it's just great. But I'm with you. I mean, yesterday, you and I and Slack were just I mean, Bully and Andy left and right, just getting this guy to move his projections.
And he did do them.
So we got Andy on board, well not on board, but we got him to swap them. But Jason is the remaining holdout. So the dunk upon his head should Rico Dawbell payoff?
Not to mention.
They I think you guys talk about, you know, when you're drafting teams over the offseason, maybe you don't want to get too over exposed to one player.
Boys, I am over exposed. You know.
These are the things that dynasty dreams are made of, because there's people that have had Rico Dawdell on and off rosters for I don't know the last three years. Yeah, and just because he had a star next to his name that said Dallas. That was the only reason, and you've kind of held out. I also think Rico Daddle will be one of those players in like three to four years ago. Do you guys remember that Rico Daddles season?
Oh great, remember that guy? Remember that guy for the Cowboys in twenty twenty four. He's gonna be that conversation we have in you know, three years or something.
If we're remembering it fondly, then then my teams are doing very well.
I have a lot of especially just in redraft stuff. I did trade him in a couple of leagues, just assuming things wouldn't turn out as well as they did, so I did get some value for him in a league but on this podcast, guys, we're gonna work out our biggest fears and worries. I really think that this could be therapeutic. Like that's maybe why I chose this topic, like before the season, I need to let loose a little bit my biggest fears that hopefully you guys can tell me I'm wrong and that's okay, that things are gonna go well, it's gonna be just fine. But I saw the topics that we have, and there's this creeping feeling in every single one of us, like what if all the hopes and dreams we have for these players, especially these young wide receivers, those are the ones that I think all of us. Mike, you have a really good one. We'll talk about in a second. So our biggest worries, our biggest fears, we will talk about that. But I do have a fun little quick question for us to kick things off. So let's figure this out.
What's my age?
I don't think we've ever used that drop.
That's what's the best part you went.
Into like the ancient texts of the Fantasy Footballers man that I made that and because we thought it would be fun. Sometimes if you get surprised how how old a player is and how this other guy is younger than him. So we made this by we, I mean me, I made that drop, which is a guys. It's it's a super sick reference inside of the music, but it's never been used.
This is amazing.
I thought that I would bring this out for the people because in Dynasty there is a weird obsession and a weird thing that I know a lot of people's ages and I don't even know if I'm supposed to know all that information, but it's just a weird quirk with this side in this format where it's super important to know this player is this you know this old?
Uh?
And we started to look at ages and you know, point threes and all these other extensions of somebody's age that no one else cares about.
We have an update. I think Andy has has swapped back to Zeke.
Oh no, come on, Andy, he watched the tape.
Yeah, they were watching Dawdle snaps. As as I was going, they need to go back and watch Zeke Snaps.
Here's the direct quote from Andy in slack. Don't worry, I just watched a bunch of Dabble and Zeke from last year. And Zeke is a better runner.
Oh my god, no he is not.
There's not a chance that that statement is true. We need week one more than anything to figure this out.
Boys.
Yeah. And the problem is, here's the worst part is that it's gonna be maybe both like that's gonna be or no one terrifying. It's gonna be somebody. It's gonna be Dallas running back. And you wish you had the group that's.
All three guys and one. I'm saying three as if it matters. But Dalvin, all all guys on the depth chart in one starting position in your dynasty roster. If we could do that, I mean that, take that to the bank.
All right.
So the game that we're gonna play, called What's My Age again? Famous drop for Mike, is I will name three players and you guys get to put them in order of youngest to oldest, and then we'll kind of talk about the implications of these players. So, for instance, the first group that we are going to talk about right here is third year running backs Kenneth Walker, Kyen Williams, and James Cook. So who is the youngest and who is the oldest? Bets you can go first.
I think the youngest is Kenneth Walker because I remember him coming out of school as a pretty young prospect. So I'm gonna go Ken Walker youngest. I'm gonna say James Cook. Then Kyrien is the oldest.
Yeah, I feel pretty confident that Walker is the youngest. I'll go Yeah, Walker, Cook, Kyron.
All Right, Kenneth Walker's twenty three point nine, Kyron's twenty four, and James Cook is already twenty five years old, so he's the oldest of this group. And you remember Walker got taken in the second round that year. Cook was at the back of the second round in the NFL Draft, and then Kyron was a much later pick. So my question for you guys is all of these running backs, I think we would be very happy to have them in Dynasty this year. Kyron is one of the players that I ask people, who are they most worried about? Who's their biggest fear. I think all of us are, like Kyroen could go a couple different ways, but who will be ranked the highest in twenty twenty five, because that's they're going into a contract year, right, all three of them. And so when I asked that question, it's also who pretty much has the most valuable twenty twenty four. So that's who would you say you would want going into twenty twenty five.
Man, this is tough. This is I wish I had a great answer. I really don't, And I think they're all guys that you can make the argument at four. I think for me, I still side with James Cook just because I always lean with these pass catching type backs. But the age is something that you just pointed out, and like when we have this conversation next year, I mean to Mike, he's only gonna be twenty six years old next year, but that is a factor for next year's value. That said, like, we play dynasty with running backs, especially at this position, like one to two years, and I just feel so strong about Cook's role in this offense with Walker. You know, I know the offseason has been, you know, such a constant drum beat for this coaching staff wanted him to be the dude and more pass catching work and YadA, YadA, YadA, And it's like, okay, let me just see it right, because it's running your three. And if you don't really show that by now, it's up to trust and then Karen, you know, like you tell me either a scenario I believe you where it's like this actually was a time share with Blake Corum.
I would buy that.
Or Kyen is just the dude and he's the RB three in fantasy, right, Like I could buy any of those. So that's tough. I think I leen James Cook, though Mike.
It's it's Ken Bone Walker, guy's the h I get it that it's the show me the pass catching, but it's the Pete Carroll era. They just that's that was not part part of their game plan, is throwing the ball to the running back position. I really believe that Seattle will follow through with everything they're saying about that and watching I liked sharbon Ay the prospect and charbon Ay had an opportunity, and like for fantasy, it seemed like it was okay. I don't know, he left me wanting he's going in a year two so he could be he could be a better player. I mean, when the takes are flying over the offseason, you sometimes forget that people just get better at things the more that they actually practice them.
So charbon Ay can improve.
I just think that I think that Walker is going to take that level up in terms of work. James Cook. Meanwhile, it's like, I love James Cook. He's a my guy. I really think that he's gonna have a fantastic season. But for him, I mean, come between Josh Allen and then like Ray Davis, you know, will will we ever actually see the goal line opportunities go to James Cook or does he just have to keep being this incredibly efficient player just to tread water and be good for fantasy.
So that's where that's where I'm concerned for Cook.
Yeah, Walker and Cook are close for me. I think Walker, we would say there's obviously more touchdown equity. Cook might have just more yards from scrimmage like he did this past year. But I think I would take Walker right now if I had to pick in a Dynasty league a full year difference. Let's go to tight end. I've got some older guys that they're at the point of their careers where you're kind of like, I have no idea how actually how old these guys are. So TJ Hawkinson, David and Joku who forever is ambiguous in his age. Yeah, and Mark Andrews, so older tight ends. Put them in age order from youngest to oldest.
Gosh, Okay, I think Andrews is older than in Joku. I'm gonna say Hockinson's the youngest than in Joku than Andrews or yeah, Andrews.
That sounds right. I'll go with that too.
Yep, that is correct. Hawkinson twenty seven point two and Djoku is twenty eight point two, and yet he was drafted in twenty seventeen, and then Andrews is twenty nine years old. So looking at where these guys are in their life cycle, you know, we know that tight ends can produce when they're older. Mark Andrews is the number one reading this offense. So I'm very much on the Mark Andrews side of I just love him. I think I'm most bullish that he could have an awesome season this year. But who has the most top five seasons left in their career? Where in Joku had a hot end of season, I think it's easier for me to kind of say, like, I'm down on in Djoko compared to these other guys. But Hawkinson's been hurt, is it? Like Andrews. I get he's older, but I mean he's still got three or four top seasons left.
He does to me, I'll go I would put Mark Andrews as the favorite four where Hockinson like he's part of that Minnesota you know, is JJ McCarthy really the future of this team? On top of that recovering from you know, a devastating knee injury, not that Andrews didn't have his own injury, but I'll go to the certified pt which injury would you rather recover from it? Like are they that far apart?
That's as far as the meniscus for McCarthy or Hawkinson's ACL with tren time.
No Hawkinson versus Mark Andrews injuries from last year.
The Hawkinson recovery is just longer coming off the MCL plus ACL compared to the Andrews fracture of fibula in hinefel Spring. People kind of forget Andrews actually played in the playoffs last year. Now it was like, you know, twenty routes or.
Something like he was right. I did forget that he wasn't a.
Full time player, but he made it back for that Chiefs game, so he kind of already it's again it's a small sample of being on the field, but he kind of already crossed like that hurdle of the check mark of like, Okay, I had a game back, like now, get the full off season to recover further and rehab and train for it, whereas like Hockinson, we're not expecting to be one hundred percent, you know, maybe to like December really though twenty twenty five.
But I'll take Andrews.
His game to me, well, he'll be able to keep doing it and you just right now, I mean, it's it's not just that, it's not just the talent of the player.
Hawkinson, I think is a very talented guy.
It's you happen to be with a quarterback who just likes to throw that part of the field and fully utilize your strength. I think we we've like David Nijoku is the perfect example, like the.
End of last year.
Are you trying to tell me that he's been on the Cleveland Browns for infinity years and he just figured out how to play football over the second half of last year. Like, No, the dude has been like the guy can ball, but they have used him properly. He hasn't had the right quarterback who's like that's how he reads it. So I'll take Andrews first, then Hawkinson.
Same all right, Let's do a grosser category here. This is wide receiver ones. I'm calling them on iffy offenses. So put these guys in order from youngest to oldest, Courtland Sutton, Deontay Johnson, and Terry McLaurin. We gotta do age age, Yeah, give me young oldest.
Well, I'm pretty sure mclaurin's the oldest.
I'll go mclauren's twenty nine, that's all.
I'll go Deontay Sutton, McLaurin.
I'm gonna go Sutton, Deontay McLaurin.
It's Deontae at twenty eight point two, Sutton at twenty eight point nine, and then McLaurin at twenty nine. So they're actually pretty close in age. When I was looking at these wide receivers comparing them in Dynasty, it's like you have a one year window where you can confidently say these guys are the ones for their offense, like there's really no question for it. But when I was comparing them, I was like, who's most likely to have the most receptions of this group? Who would you say?
Deontay?
Okay, what about receiving yards?
I was gonna say, I think Deontay just we've seen him be a PPR guy for his entire career. Mclaur and I think has the ability to if if Daniel's hits with the deep ball, then McLaurin for.
Your receiving yards, I would have McLaurin of this group fine, And then touchdowns, i'd have Sutton.
Hm really even quarterback, Kyle, you are the spreadsheet nerves.
You guys should look through the careers of Deontay Johnson and Terry McLaurin when it comes to red zone targets and just touchdowns in general, they have been anemic in that category.
But Sutton's touchdown rate last year was just, oh for sure, so unsustainable. Right, So you factor in regression plus rookie quarterback, I would have I don't know, I guess McClure at the top of the then sudden maybe then the.
Opposite stat maker, Terry McLaurin. Yeah, this is the year baby with a rookie quarterback as well.
Yeah, they're all just bad touchdown bets.
Yeah, I think Deontay is Deontay is one of the hardest players to draft and redraft this year, and yet I think he's gonna be very good.
We're comparing rookie quarterback, rookie quarterback and Bryce Young. That's what we just did there, and we don't feel good really about any all right, last one wide receivers going into year five, Brandon Ayuk, T Higgins and Michael Pittman. Remember T Higgins or Brandon Ayuk went in the first round that year as a rookie. In that draft, T Higgins went with the first pick of the second round and Michael Pittman went with the third pick of the second round. So they were like all right there together. So put them in order youngest to oldest, bets.
I have no idea I was gonna say, literally, like, no clue. I think I think Pittman might be the oldest, but I have no confidence in that. Goes the oldest Okay, So I'll go t than Ayuk, then Pitty City.
Let's go.
Yeah, Actually that sounds right. I'll go Tea as the youngest, and then Yuke.
T is the youngest at twenty five point six. Ayuk is almost a full year older at twenty six and a half, and then Pittman is twenty six point nine. What's interesting is that two of these guys have been paid like wide receiver ones, Pittman and Ayuk, and we think that Haiggin's next year is going to be paid. Get the bag. None of these wide receivers have had a season yet where they finished as a wide receiver one for fantasy. Ayuk was very close last year depending on your scoring. But like they're paid like wide receiver ones, and yet we haven't seen that season. So who has the best shot to finish as a fantasy wide receiver one?
Uh not? Michael Pittman agreed, he's.
Just like wideer zero fifteen. That's that's the.
Ceiling if we get wide receiver fifteen for Michael Pittman. I think that we had a great year of very concerned about Richardson's accuracy. We're gonna talk about I'll, I mean, it's still it's it's a Yuk like t Higgins. I mean, look the Jamaar Chase saga as we are recording, it is still ongoing.
He is not Yeah the saga, uh it is.
It is still he's not signed yet, but he's gonna play football in my opinion, and I U, I dude, I just I think Ayuk is so good and it was nice to have that opinion of him, like to the point of going out and pursuing him in a dynasty league, and in our main one went.
Out and got him.
And then and then his saga continued over the offseason, and all the teams coming out of the woodwork were saying, now the NFL thinks that Brandon ayuk.
Is an elite player.
I mean, though if there's any credence to be given to those trade the trade offers, which the one from Cleveland, they said it was a two to three and Amari Cooper and then they were gonna pay him elite wide receiver one money, like NFL teams think that ayuk Is is a true number one. And if we're thinking, if we're looking at long term, like the buckle up next year everyone for the forty nine ers, it's going to be do they do they trade depot? What do they do with Deebo's contract?
And debo Is? I mean he's what is he twenty nine? Kyle?
Is Deebo pushing thirty yet he's about to be twenty nine, and so.
He's twenty nine and his his body is older than a twenty nine year old. Of how much of the way that he plays and the injuries that he has sustained. So uh for the I'm I'm gonna I would rank it Ayuk most likely to be number one and then going into next year will be ranked much higher than these other guys.
Yeah, I think.
I mean, I've said on the show before, like I think Ayuk is a true superstar, and we saw that last year. The problem is any little bit of regression in rock Perde's efficiency and the offense just takes a hit, right Like with with the low passing volume that the offense has been, They've just been lights out efficiency wise. And granted, like some offenses and some guys are just that good that it could continue, but that just makes it more volatile. But I think he has the best chance as at a wide receiver one. I will just say too, like I feel like t Higgins at this point, everyone's just like, so Mahon, I'm still a tea believer. I know last year was really frustrating and the whole offense struggled and Burrow got hurt and all that sort of stuff, But like, it wasn't that long ago that we were like talking about how week to week t is earning targets at the same level as Jamar Chase. Now, I don't think that's likely, assuming Jamar Chase plays and all that sort of stuff. But who else is catching passes in this offense? Like I know we're doing the Chase Brown Zach Moss thing as like a pass catching back out of the backfield, but andre Yoshibas has done nothing in the NFL thus far. We don't know who the tight end is, Like it's literally Chase and T and maybe down the stretch our boy Jermain Burton, but it's those two dudes. So like, I wouldn't be surprised if T snuck in as like the wide receiver eleven and Burrow has an insane year, But I think I Yuke than T, than than Pittman.
You need to watch your mouth because joseu Vas has more fifteen point games than Jamison Williams does in his career.
Hey, that doesn't shock me, Kyle, Okay, I for.
One am not shocked.
No.
I I was looking at these players, and if I were taking away their names, I would go, Okay, these are players with four years and based on their production and age, T Higgins is probably undervalued relative to the other guys. We just don't know. There's a you know, ambiguity of where is he next year? But I think that overall, T Higgins feels like a player that I'd be interested if I'm trying to just roll the dice go for upside. Mike is slowly, slowly talk me into forgiving him.
Oh man, it's been brutal.
We some terrible decisions have been made at the hands of the fancy burns provided by T Higgins.
Yeah, I'm almost ready to forgive. All right, let's take quick break.
We don't have him.
I don't need him anymore in my life. All right, let's take a quick break. We're back, and we're gonna be talking about our biggest worries and fears heading into the season. Once again, this is just a chance for us to just put all out there. You guys can kind of talk me in or out of something. But I also put this question on Twitter to get some people's responses. So let's get into it.
You're gonna do what you all think I'm gonna do, which is just pull.
Out some of the most popular responses we mentioned earlier. Kien Williams is really could go anywhere and everywhere, and I think everybody feeling that right now. Some of my favorite ones though, in the thread that I posted is this one's from Jason on Twitter that you guys are right about Jamison, Williams and Dowdell because it's been personal all summer. I like that response, like it's been personal all your thoughts about Jamison. People don't love that we're not high on Jamison, and that's okay, we're not.
We're not high on him, but I don't we all three of us, Like you know, his ADP is fantastic.
Right, I think it's the dynasty perspective of us as a group saying, hey, it hasn't worked out and because of that, it's really tough for us to project forward.
Basically, he's done. He would have to be so good. I know, I get drafted to be great, I get it, but he would have to be so ridiculously good at what are we in year three that for him to overcome the the the order of the targets, like you know of what Amanran and I would say, Amororan Gibbs, you know, just lock that in and then Laporte is ahead of him currently, but you to overcome Laporte and the target share, he would have to be just so incredibly good and we have we have yet to see anything did remote remotely.
Close to that.
He's fast, yeah, but can he be a complete wide receiver TBD.
I forget the stat I share when we talked about dynasty trade away candidates, and I think I shared this in like early July. I was like, when we get to August and we are hearing the JMO just hype train out of control, like that's the time to pounce. And I'll admit I could be wrong on this, Like he did have the draft capital. This offense should be top five in scoring, like we obviously want pieces, but like Mike's saying, you're asking so much for a guy that I think the stat was had two or fewer catches or three or fewer catches in twelve or fifteen games last year. It's like you just haven't seen it.
Right.
So, while there is a role for him in the offense, and I think he's going to be awesome at that role, which is taking the top off the defense, opening everything up for Gibbs A Monra Laporta. Let's not forget Dave Montgomery's going to carry the ball two hundred times in this offense, right, like, it's just so hard for me to see it from an opportunity standpoint that he'll have to be wildly efficient with a quarterback who historically is not thrown deep.
Now, Kyle, you threw it in the slack here because I was saving it. I was going to bring it up on this show. And this is the perfect time that we're talking about the Lions. Dan Campbell aka guns Mahoney is he's starting to get some celebrity about him, and he landed himself the lead in an Applebee's commercial. And you are historically outspoken of your allegiance when we're talking the big chains. Your allegiance is to Chili's. And now your guy, I'm not a monster, Okay, your guy now is he's the riblets from Applebee's. I mean, what do you do with this information?
Okay?
Port judgment.
Yeah, you definitely need to fade this. If you're looking. I mean, if he really would look at the menu, he'd understand. As in a former employee of Applebee's for about thirty days in college, I can say that I had a month. I made it a month, and I was like, I'm out of here. I have not eaten there since. Oh, you know, it was a hard It was a hard stance that I had to take. But also I love the guns mahoney persona.
I love it.
It's my favorite nickname in footballer's history. Dan Campbell not so much like my favorite coach of all time. And the Lions have been a team historically that I've faded and it's worked out well. Last year they dunked on me. But I feel like Jameson Williams is one of those players that at the end of the day, we have a lot to lose and not that much to gain to just say like, hey, I don't think it's gonna work out, So I just I feel like it's asking for us to get dunked.
On for sure.
And I will just say shout out to Chili's, the official, unofficial, you know, large chain restaurant of our brand. Actually dined there on Saturday night this past weekend.
It was glory.
Sure did prepping for a long football season. No better way to do that than with Chili's. Uh listening at your digestive trek. And I've been not feeling the best the last couple of days.
Let's just say Bets ruined Chili's bathroom.
Just destroy nor do I that information.
A couple others from the thread was, uh, someone was worried that they're gonna miss out on brock Bowers and that he's just him, He's just different. And I have that fear too, of like I was a little bit lower in our rookie rankings and those shows. But I mean it could I could just be dead wrong. That brock Bowers from the get go is just incredible. And then this one will kind of segue into our conversation. It's I think we've kind of all said Diggs is trending in the wrong direction, and yet what if what if Diggs is oh still in alpha?
That is the Stefan Diggs stance is the one I am most nervous about because I mean he was named a team captain. I don't know if that was I mean, I can come over here and spin it in in my direction of like, well, they're just now they're playcating to the guy who complains all the time, or maybe the team and the coach exta they love him and he's a good leader.
I don't know.
I'm not in the locker room, but the falloff of second the second half of last year was so extreme, and the fact that the Bills were willing to, like the Bills are, they're trying to win a super Bowl right now, and they're like, no, we can do better with Stefan digs off of this team.
It's so much of it. But that's that is a very concerning one.
Yeah, Mike, I think so your first worry that you have lift listed here has to do with the Texans.
Sure, and it's.
A player that we all three love, so it's like it's kind of pained us to talk about it for fantasy purpose. So talk to me about Stroud.
Yeah, So a big fear would be that defenses figure out CJ. Stroud, And I mean usually if a quarterback is if they find something on film to exploit, it's it's not like it would be halfway through the year or so they would figure out a how this is how we actually stop this quarterback where I mean no one really did like he was. He had the second most air yards per passe attempty of the second highest completion on deep attempts, so twenty air yard throws. I mean like he was completing fifty six percent of them. My love for Nico had me go back and watch all of them in his his dig route up the middle and just in cutting in. It's like it seemed unstoppable when you go back and you're watching Collins and he's so locked in with Stroud. But there are there are things that didn't work well for him, Like he had to talk about c J.
Stroud.
He had a low completion percentage versus man coverage. In fact, that number is Kyle you're saying, it's the same as a no'connell. It was worse than Zach Wilson his completion against man. That's what I mean of, Like do defenses figure that out? They they look at these really analytical numbers and they say, hey, we we should run man.
When we're when we're up against the Texans. C J.
Stroud can't. He can't stop it or he can't overcome it. And so that's that's where it lies, you know, of he his numbers were on the season, they were great, but he really beat up against bad teams. He really beat up against teams when he's at home. Again, not an uncommon thing for quarterbacks to be way better at home. It's just it was a a very drastic split for fantasy football. Really only had the one Monster game, which Tampa Bay is a Monster game, but it was also if I remember it was a comeback.
If I from remembering it correctly.
That's how I remember it.
It's only getting you would you're a disgusting individual. So that's just it's it's a fear that's in the back of my head here. You know, we we've talked a lot about on the main show of Baker broke the record or tied it for passing touchdowns, I can't remember. And the hopes and the dreams were so high for Baker Mayfield. Now it's it's not apples to apples, of course, where Stroud has the same people, like his offensive coordinator didn't take a head coaching job, he stayed there, where Baker had to keep changing his coaching staff over and over. So that's something difficult to overcome. But what if he Bakers? What if he turns into a pumpkin right in front of us, and that would be a disaster, a disaster for fantasy football. Where with the faith and the adp that we're putting into these players, what we're paying in Dynasty to trade for Tank Dell and Nico Collins right now, it would be brutal.
Yeah, it would be a shock, but those things happen in the NFL. My thought on Stroud is, like Mike said, like I definitely share some of these concerns and not just like his numbers and kind of how those splits worked and that sort of thing, but this offense was kind of stubborn to let CJ.
Stroud go last year.
Now he was a rookie, So like maybe that changes, and theory it should because they just got digs, but they really didn't use a ton of eleven. They used a full back a ton. Like they were kind of stubborn and not letting him just go when it was quite obvious, like he was the key to the offense functioning well. So I think that would change. Logically, you would think that happens, but we assume coaches do rational stuff all the time, and they don't, right, But man, he was so good last year, And I think about quarterbacks that elevate their teammates. Noel Brown, okay, for years, had done nothing in the NFL, plays with c. Stroud for like four weeks. He's a superstar. Like you know, I don't understand. So I do think he's just that good. Now, the question for fantasy is like, if he's just pretty good this year, he's not gonna hit it as adp. That's the tricky thing. Now for dynasty it's a different conversation. But for like redraft leagues, like you said, Mike, every single Texan minus Stulton Schultz goes in the top six rounds basically, so if they're fine but not incredible, those guys will bust relative to expectation.
The NFL is a league that swings on a pendulum, so we talk a lot, I feel like in the last year or two about zone coverages. If you can slay against zone coverage, we love you for fantasy. That's why we like Stroud coming in. And yet you can see how teams adjust in the NFL adjust. They're a copycat league. So for going this way, why would we not swing towards more aggressive man coverage Where Mike read one of the stats, but like he had a lower Fantasy points per drop back against man coverage than Desmond Ritter last year. So oh brother, I found some other ones. I won't bring them up because it just made me feel sad, but it does make you realize that there are certain defenses that tend to do it like Dallas, Like that was what Dallas was great at New England. Their defense, like, let's just go man. And the last thing I'll say about Stroud, Mike, you brought it up. It's like, in order to have like a truly historic Fantasy season, one of those that like we just think, man, you killed it. You were one of the greats, you need the rushing production. And last year only fift it was under fifteen percent of his points were on the ground. So it's like with Stroud, he got three rushing touchdowns, but it's really hard to get up to that upper etchelon where you see these Kyler or Anthony richardson where you can see them just completely blowing off the doors. And at one point this offseason, do you remember this conversation he was viewed as like a top two dynasty quarterback. Yeah, that's elevating someone because I mean Stroud, like you said, had two or three really good games for fantasy and that was it.
Yeah. The argument that I've made all off season.
Is the the focus is so much on CJ.
Stroud.
Meanwhile, Jordan Love over here is like the same arc type of player that was you know, essentially Jordan Love's rookie year and he was better. Like he was, he was a better fantasy football players. But so why is C. J. Stroud on the rocket ship to being that in that insanely high in Dynasty rankings And Jordan Love is like, well, he's you know, he's a top ten ish guy.
Like, no, they should be.
They should be close to each other until there is someone actually separates bets.
You have the quarterback on the other side of the matchup for week one, so Stroud faces Richardson in Week one, and there is a I feel like there is a firm debate about which quarterback you would rather have in Dynasty, and I feel like some people don't like that. Swinging for the fences means you just go with Richardson, but it seems like you have some fears that it just just might not work out. Like I was talking about Lance the other day, it's just he's not even a has been anymore. He's it never was.
Oh delete that sentence, producers, please Trey Lance. Okay, And the preseason Kyle put up almost thirty DraftKings points. I'll have you know, I might have played him in a DFS contest he could have.
He would have put up like fifty if he turned the ball over.
Hey man, that was an incredible experience interception right back to another possession. Yeah, shout out to Trey Lance. It will never happen. Also, Anthony Richardson's you know, he's one of those guys that hit like his value and how he performs this year, I am not worried about. Meaning, if he runs enough, he will be very good for fantasy. I feel so strong about that. The problem is for me when I look at his teammates, his passcutcher, specifically Michael Pittman, Adie Mitchell and then Josh Downs recovering from my apple sprain. But he'll be back soon enough. Going back to college, the conversation on Anthony Richardson was he's pretty inexperienced. He didn't start a lot of games. Only one year of starting experience in college and he completed under fifty five percent of his passes. Then we see him in four games and it's more of the same concerns as a passer. Now, anything he adds as a pastor this year, which could happen, I guess, but anything he adds will only elevate his value. I'm just not sure he supports the guys we're asking him too, Meaning last year, Michael Pittman was a guy that was going in redraft leagues like seventh eighth round sometimes because they're all like, you know, Jonathan Taylor when he's back healthy, he's gonna run. Richardson's gonna run. You know, he might not be a good thrower, Anthony Richardson, So like, how is Pittman getting there? And then I don't want to say he lucked boxes into Gardner Minshew because I think Pittman is talented, but you know, Gardner Minshew is better for the passing game for Indy than I think Richardson will be, which is saying a lot because I don't think Gardner's that good of a quarterback from a passing standpoint. But you know, looking at this team, like the more I think about it, and you know, sometimes the preseason leads us astray, but that preseason experience, the first drive was surgical, it was perfect, and then everything after that was not good. Man Like, once they were passed the script, yes, that's correct, once they're passed the script, it was bad. I looked at our UdK projections I'm gonna say our I mean, you guys, we're projecting twenty touchdown passes for him this year, which I think is pretty fair. His line is eighteen and a half in the betting markets. So if he only throws for somewhere between like let's say seventeen and twenty one touchdown passes this year, like, how are Pittman or Mitchell or Down's relevant or like difference makers for your lineup? Is my biggest concern because I think we like the Colts system, we like stike In with like all those things. I just I have major questions about Richardson as a passer.
So the Colts are the Eagles. I think we can just recognize that's how this team was built in Shane Sikein's you know, same image of Hurts, and so you look at the Eagles as a team that like, okay, there's four relevant pieces. I think it can work in this environment. I think he can get twenty passing touchdowns and it just gets divided. It's just weird because last year it was divided between a bunch of tight ends who every single day. I feel like there's a different Colts tight end that I remember is on this team, and then it's like, well, what's left over for Pittman, It's like four five receiving touchdowns, feels like he's gonna have one of those careers. Was like, if he gets to seven, we're like, it's ecstatic for him. So I tend to agree that the ceiling outcome for Pittman, the ceiling outcome for Ady Mitchell in year one is I don't know, four touchdowns, but you could never guess the right week. But at the end of the day, the whole offense could still be good. So Richardson has in his range of outcomes to support a top fifteen to twenty wide receiver and still finished as like the quarterback two. Yeah, Like that's wild to be able to say that. And Taylor could still be a top five running back. Like I think that's still possible too. So at the end of the day, I'm just willing to swing away because twenty passing touchdowns and then you add eight hundred on the ground, that's gold Man. That's like, that's still breaking fantasy.
Yep.
So I have a worry and maybe this comes from just looking at every single team a little too much this offseason that you get to the point where you've analyzed every single team thirty times over and then you realize you're saying the same story over and over and again. So for me, I am a sucker. I'm calling this pre snap motion flops because anytime I hear about a coordinator that says we're gonna do more emotion, I get a little hot and heavy. It's good. It's a good thing, right yeah, And it is it is. And we talk about this a lot. Like the teams that were top six in pre snap motion last year, the Dolphins, the Rams, the forty nine Ers, the Packers, the Lions, the Ravens. Those were good teams, right.
Was like a strong offenses.
Yes, yeah, And if you look at prestat motion in the playoffs, the league average was sixty four percent, where during the regular season was around like forty five. Because all the good teams are in the playoffs still doing it, like it just kind of makes sense when you're there at the end your teams that are doing it. So anytime I see an OC that preaches that or at least brings it up, I'm like, oh, let me compare to last year and how bad they were. Oh man, if they just did this more then I know this offense will be fixed. So like the Saints is one of those offense. I think we were all like, okay, they were in two thousand and eight mode with Pete Carmichael, and now it's like, okay, now they're gonna be Now they're gonna fix all their problems. I just know how this works, guys. And my fear is that teams like the Saints or who are some of the other teams. It's like the Eagles were pretty low and I'm bullish on the Eagles. The Commanders were low, and now they have Kingsbury all of these offenses, I think they're gonna be a switch. But what if they're the same, Like what if it is just the Saints are the Saints, and the Saints stink for fantasy, So talk me out of that. It's hard to do with me, Like isn't it Like it's terrifying.
It they are a they are a terrifying team, as like what is I mean, I don't want to be the old football like what is the identity of the team? But it's it's a different version of It's really the same question like what is the engine? What what makes the Saints offense go what like you know, like it. It can't be Derek Carr where we're at the point of his career now where you know it. He can be a part of it, but he can't be the engine. Alvin Kamara is in running back ages is decrepit, in near retirement, and it's like, but in an olave has to be unlocked by Derek cars I mean, what what is the engine that makes the New Orleans offense scary to an opposing defense?
I don't know.
I think we all know It'saso Taysom.
Yeah.
And the thing is, I've guys, I've and I've been down. I've been trying to reckon with the demons of Taysom Hill, trying to remember why I got just so irritated and frustrated with it. And it was remembering that like he would take Drew Breese off the field, and I'm like that, and because that's one hundred percent what it is if you if you give me a player with Taysom's just his natural physical abilities and he's a good football player and he's moving all over the field, but he's not taking a Hall of Fame quarterback off the field. I'm all about it, But when you start, when you replace the quarterback for and there, that's what I'm like, this is so gadgety and it's broken. This is you can't win in the NFL with this type of an offense. So if they had not made that one mistake, maybe I'm Taysom Hill's biggest fan, but they they made it and they broke the cardinal rule, and now I've had to like slowly get back on board with Taysom Hill. Can he act? I mean not his age and everything? Can he really be the engine?
I don't know. You're asking a lot.
You're asking a lot for a guy that's never done that, and now like on a week to week basis that there's injuries in the running back room or he has to play quarterback, like he can do that, but we just haven't seen it across an entire season, I think, is what you're getting at. I'm with you. I'm I'm worried about this team. You know, I look at the depth chart and it's like if the love miss is any time, Like who even is the wide receiver three on this team? You can't even answer the question confidently right, Like there hasn't been a guy that stept up. Rashid Shaheed has missed three weeks of the training camp with a toe injury. He'll play a week one, but he's missed time. I mean, Jamal Williams is getting paid like a top fifteen running back and he's gonna be out of the league next year. Like this team is set up to fail. The offensive line is in shambles. Derek Carr is not a difference maker. I would just be surprised if they're able to eke out a winning season. Crazy things happen in the NFL, so like, don't get me wrong, it could happen. But I am starting to come around to the idea or at least worried that like our Chris Olave hopes and dreams are just crushed by Derek Carr and he's again like the wide receiver nineteen and we're like, well maybe next year that and.
Then you turn into if he does that, which I mean all this combo. My concern here, Kyle, because we have crossover with a lave, Like if O Lave is in that range again, you go, oh oh boy, We've got DJ Moore's early career. We have Terry McLaurin where it's I can see on the football field that this is a great player, but everything around him. The NFL is the ultimate team game, and you can't control the entirety of the team being one great wide receiver, and it would be such a shame for him to get stuck in that Terry McLaurin area where you know, I know he's good. I know he is good, but I can't keep defending him for fantasy football because this is the situation remains here. But my other thing that I'm afraid of it's that Olave, Drake London and Garrett Wilson fail us yet again for a third consecutive year. Because if that happens, I don't know that my heart can take it.
I don't. I don't think it will happen. It's more of a it could. And you know the.
Where Jason has made the comments about Garrett Wilson from last year, It can you really say it's all Garrett or it's all Zach Wilson's fault? I can confidently, but maybe I have blinders on and I'm not realizing that maybe the Garrett Wilson's that fault for some of it, and same for Drake London. I mean the but then it's so easy to explain it away. But maybe we're taking too easy of an away out and and the players aren't gonna be what we hoped.
They would be. And it was aware of you guys.
With with London and Garrett Wilson.
I'll first say with Wilson, the thing that he was type cast as is like an X receiver. He actually hasn't been great in that role like in the NFL, Like he's actually been better as the Z the slot guy, and you just think about his body type. Now they actually do have an X receiver. I know he's older, but like Mike Williams is an outside X receiver like what you would think body type. So I do think that that's helpful. But I just tend like you can make excuses about quarterback play, like all the great guys have had terrible quarterback play. You think of Hopkins before Watson was the he had some terrible quarterbacks in Houston, just terrible. Justin Jefferson is going to have some terrible quarterback play this year, and yet at the end of the day for fantasy, I think he's gonna be able to produce. So I think with Wilson, I'm nervous. I'm nervous because I've just kind of been against Rogers most of this offseason of just betting on him returning to form. I don't think Nathaniel Hackett should have a job in the NFL. Maybe that's just me, so I tend to lean more into London. I know there's some falcons in there, but like I just like the system more. I like they're gonna throw more and I feel like there's a little bit more stability from Cousins to at least there's a backup plan and having a modern offense like you at least could say the difference between these three guys. One of these guys did not have a NFL offense. They had a JV. Pop Warner type offense that wasn't real. And now he's gonna least get to do that. So that's where I lean and a lot. I'm just ready to get hurt again, but that's where I've always been.
I'll give it to you. You have been there for two years in a row. It's so interesting with all three of these guys because it really is like I don't want to say now or never for them, but like it's now or never for like solidifying yourself as a top twelve guy, Like no questions asked, because I think it's in Marv's Dynasty life cycles article in the Dynasty Pass. But it's like, you know, most of these true like alpha breakouts happen by year three, and if it's not by year three, it's a long shot to ever occur. Now, all these guys have had a different path to get here, so I understand why we make the excuses we do when we talk about their talent and the lack of quarterback playing, all those sort of things.
But I agree.
I mean, I think you can see a path where it works for all three of these guys. You can see a path where it's again another like that was good, not great type of season. I think the guy that I'm just so confident and still is Garrett Wilson. If you listened to last week's show, I made the bold prediction that Kyle bullied me into this, that he would lead the league in receptions and also set the record for receptions in a single year. Now, obviously that's likely to happen, but to me, I just go to his profile and kind of how he's performed when he's been on the field. He just soaks up so many targets, and I think eventually, when you give a guy that much volume and he is that good with league average quarterback player like Aaron Rodgers can just be average, I think he will explode. So I feel confident in Garrett Wilson and then the other two guys I like, but I definitely see the path where it goes kind of sideways.
All right, let me put this to the test. Okay, this year for twenty twenty four of these three, who has the most receptions this year?
I mean, Garret Wilson will record so, okay, come.
On there, Garrett Wilson.
Okay, Most receiving.
Yards Garrett Wilson.
Garrett Wilson, I mean a lot of has paced him the first two years. So but what about touchdowns? Because none of these guys.
Had at least a beating your.
Quarterback touchdowns though, because none of these dudes have scored at all really in the NFL. So who has the most touchdowns this year?
Garrett Wilson. Okay, Garrett Wilson.
Wow, who would you say? It's between Wilson and London probably which one.
You you've heard how Kyle does things.
When you ask for his most valuable players, you he gives you like five guys.
That's true.
Listen, it could be London or Pitts or Mooney. You know, it could be any of these guys.
Bijon, but not yet alone. Come on, man, that was too.
Trade Mike Ridder for Rondeale? It what amounted two nothing?
I mean, theoretically, isn't Rondeale still on the on the team next year?
Yes, technically he.
Is ridden, will not be on the Cardinals.
No, he's door dashing. We all know that. All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back. I'm going to parlay this conversation into talking a little bit more Falcons here, because I don't know if you guys realize this, but the Falcons did not play any starters in the preseason this year, like week one, Week two, nothing, and then on top of that.
They played their top ten draft pick, though.
Not in Week two though they said we've seen enough, we don't need to play this guy. But you haven't been able to attend camp this year. I don't know if you guys knew that with Falcons stuff, because they've been.
I saw a note come through I got tagged on something on Twitter. It was a Beat reporter responding to Josh Norris. Maybe that's what you're referring to, but it had and it explained how there's been all this construction and so they haven't really had people there. And then the Beat reporter went on he had some nice things to say about Drake London and some cautious things about Kyle Pitts that I thought was interesting, more of a like he's being used differently, which that's great. We don't want Kyle Pitch's running nine routes for being a cardio king and not ever getting the ball. But he said that that Pitts has surprised him in that he didn't say this word, but in different words. He basically said soft of that that defenders are able to make him drop a pass much easier than you would have thought for someone of Kyle Pitts's size and athleticism. And he said, Drake London, they're they're not bullying him, but Kyle Pitts has been a little suspicious.
It sounds like wasn't there also, I mean, Kyle, you would probably know better than us because you're dialed in. Wasn't there also? Like rumblings early in training camp. Now it's early in training camp, so things had change. But something about Pitt's conditioning levels and stuff like that too, Did I hear any of that?
It's only negative stuff that people spend about Pitts Man. What what could go right? I will say the problem with the Falcons has been you really haven't gotten to see their offense, like the Zach Robinson eleven personnel. You saw twenty four plays in week one where they lined up in eleven personnel for twenty three with the start with the quote starters because none of the starters were out there, so you saw what they wanted to do. You haven't seen anything else. So like no Bijon, no London, no Algier. And that's kind of the conversation I want to bring up because my fear and I'm I know I'm talking about Falcons, but I'm really just talking about fantasy here, like what if Algiers just more involved than what we want? And what if this offense doesn't flow the way we want because we get a modern eleven personnel. So like Bijon averaged seventeen point six opportunities per game last year was good, but I think all of us were like, man, we need to get twenty. If they're investing this type of capital and I taking him at the one O one rookie drafts or in the first round redraft, he needs twenty opportunities per game. We assume his workload increases and we want Algier to vanish. But remember last year, Week one, Tyler Algier was a monster right away and we never really recovered to realizing he was a part of this offense. They've been talking also about Algier just being he's still a part of this He's not just going away. He's not being deleted from this offense. And when you actually look at comparing Bijeon and Algier their rookie years, I'm gonna say it, Algier was technically better.
And Algier he still has the record, right.
Yeah, Like if you like who had more rushing yards? Yeah, who had more rushing yards as a rookie, Bijon or Algier? Who had more yards after contact? It was Algier, like like he was breaking more tackles, he was more efficient in that his rookie year.
It's so upsetting because I had the stupid Arthur Smith I mean he forced me to turn on Tyler Algier. Tyler Algier was one of my dudes. And then and then he ends up being a later round draft pick. You're like, oh, well, crap, I maybe I misscouted Tyler Algier. And then he breaks the Atlanta Falcons rookie running back record and you're like, oh, we are so back. And then the dumb dumbs over they like, no, we're gonna spend a top ten pick on a running back.
I agree with a dumb dumb part.
So a man, I am sold mad at the Falcons.
So I just wanted to bring this up as a fear because I don't think Algiers just going away. In fact, here's some quotes from Zach Robinson saying, Tyler's gonna have a great role in the offense. He just wants to get on the field anyway. He's gonna have a big role, and you've got to pick your spots with players like him. When he can get on the field. The flow of the game sometimes dictates you go in saying he's gonna play this amount of snaps. Next thing you know, you're playing the whole game. Football is crazy like that. I'm like, no, I know how fantasy's supposed to work. My player's supposed to get twenty opportunities, but that's not how the NFL were So I just wanted to bring it up as a fear. I do think Bijon sees more opportunities inside the ten, which is what we care about. That's like the gold stuff for fantasy. But he wasn't as efficient as we wanted him to be. And if there's more receivers on the field this year then last year when they were running you know, all the dumb personnel they were running, then there is more competition for targets. So I just needed to bring that up because we think he's just gonna have this massive increase in targets and roll what if it's about like what if instead of seventeen point six, it's eighteen point two and we're just still sitting here sad, just super sad that one of the best prospects of all time, all of a sudden is just good, not great for fantasy. So Betts finish us off.
Yes, we started the conversation talking a little bit about Diggs and I'm gonna transition out back to Buffalo. I'm just I'm scared to say it, but like, what if Joe Brady and the Bills just fall in their face this year? You know, like, I don't because Josh Allen is that good. I do think he is that good. But their plan this year to me anyway from the outside looking in, is they're saying, Josh Allen, go be Superman and we'll figure.
The rest out.
The problem for me with this with Joe Brady is we all talk about the splits before and after the OC change, and after the OC change they really dropped their play action right quite a bit last year, and not surprisingly, Josh Allen as a passer declined quite a bit, ten point two YPA with play action compared to six point nine YPA without it. Successfulate dropped, EPA per play dropped. All those things changed, and at the same time they went ultra run heavy. The issue for me is this secondary and defense is a major question mark. We think about Buffalo like they've always just been so good defensively, but all four starters in the secondary are new compared to last year. They just lost Matt Mlana with the biceps injury. They're counting on Von Miller, who's basically on his last leg in the NFL recovering from a torny acl to be a key piece of the pass rush. Like if they fall behind and they're saying, Josh Allen go be Superman, how does it work with these pass catchers?
Is my question mark.
We all love Dalton Kincaid, you know, Keon Coleman has his supporters in Dynasty community. Some people have question marks. There's a lot of hype on closeha here. We kind of know what Curtis Samuel is though, And to me, I look back at the end of the season, I just wouldn't be surprised if we're like, oh, yeah, it was it was actually none of the Buffalo Bills guys. It was mostly James Cook and Dont Kincaid and no one else. And the thing about Buffalo that I'm most concerned about is like you look at how they perform last year and some of their wins, and you know, they were really like on the outside looking in for the playoffs. They just went on insane run and Josh Allen was Superman. But like some of the quarterbacks they face, like Zach Wilson, Jimmy g Sam Howe, Tyrod Taylor, Mac Jones, Tim Boyle, Easton Stick Bailey, Zappy, Russell Wilson, Like they had a pretty easy run at times last year. Now they have a very difficult schedule this year. So I'm just kind of concerned about the offense in general. Team systemically could fail, and I just wonder what that does for the pieces in Buffalo.
Mike, what did you think, Because Jason brought this up in the live show about Josh Allen just not coming through, and I totally agree. We brought it up earlier in the offseason. I actually whispered, like, Hey, would we be allowed to talk about Josh Allen as like a bust or is that just like sacrilegious in the fantasy community? But he has to be everything for this offense. Yeah, so is there any worry about him taking a step back for fantasy purposes?
I yeah, I mean, like I still have him ranked as my number one guy going into the year. But we did have conversations on this show. I don't know, I think it was while Betts was gone. Maybe we're just we talked about should you be cashing in on Josh Allen right now? Which we've now seen him traded multiple times since that conversation. In our main dynasty league including someone paying in like an iron price. It was like, it's yeah, it's it's a single quarterback league, but it was essentially a swap of Dak for Josh.
Allen with multiple ones involved.
Now, this is for a team that has been on the hardest of times at the quarterback position, so they might have just been like, I am fed up with this, I'm going all in on QB. But like the the guys who play this style, which there's not a ton of them, I guess, but he's the What we mentioned at the time was looking at Cam Newton and how many years he was able to get away playing like that with his body, and it was a while. It was a year longer than I thought it was going to go. But then it felt it completely fell apart and Cam Newton was no longer in the league. I don't think that's happening to Josh Allen, but it has to be. It's it's in the back of my mind of longer term, you know, for this year, he just he he's still can run so much and he has given us very prolific passing numbers, you know, I mean, he's a four thousand yard guy. This isn't where we're looking at justin fields of we're getting no passing yards or and it's all rushing, Like Alan can do it all, but can he do it all with this cast of characters, and like you're saying bets of the offense, you know, going with the what's the play call? The play call will be Josh Allen, please do something, and we need to score a touchdown here?
Can he do that?
I mean I think so, But there there's enough, there's enough room for doubt.
Yeah, he he doesn't feel like I must trade, but I definitely think like Andy traded him away and got Kyler in a first So I think if you get value, you can consider it. We're not saying he's going down down toilet, but I was looking at just toping quarterbacks like Mahomes is like been unstoppable since he became a quarterback, uh in MVP season his first year, and yet you have seasons where he's the quarterback seven, you know, quarterback ten. It's like that's in the range of outcomes for Allen. And if you're one of those people, it's like, hey, I just want to get some value right now. I would say this is the best time to do it, like there's the most most things pointing to it, where his value is still like in a super Flex league, a startup, I'm pretty sure I would one at the lowest I would think, would you take him first bets.
That's tough. I don't want to be a homer. I think I would take I think I might take Jalen Hurts. Just the contract hawked up, you know me, the offense is going to roll. I mean literally, everyone's locked up A J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, say Klon Barkle, Jalen Hurts for the next three years. So at least you get that continuity. But I wouldn't follow anyone for going Allen obviously.
Imagine being the general manager of a team and you can get contracts to every to all your good players.
Why do it earlier when you can wait?
Yeah, perfectly timed, perfectly timed.
That's gonna do it for this episode. Next week we'll be back reacting to week one, which is uh just crazy to say, so should be good.
