The 5th Down: Tier 3 Fantasy Football Rankings · The Poi N Soy Podcast

• Keoni McKeague: Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your co-host Kearney McKeegan. With me today on the FitDown is my boy from the FitDown, Nolan Chang. Say what's up to the pod, Nolan: Hello? Keoni McKeague: What? We're not wearing the same stuff that we were wearing last week. Yeah, for those who are wondering we had to pre-record these because Dolan is gonna be on vacation for the next well, not the next couple of weeks coming up soon, so We did want to get these knocked out in time for you guys But anyway, this is tier three of our series that we've been working on the last couple of weeks Obviously if you've been with us You've heard tier one and two if they haven't heard those head on over to the podcast on Spotify or Apple Podcasts or even head on over to YouTube To catch our video breakdown of all of our tiers the players that we have there Nolan: It's okay! Soon! Keoni McKeague: tier one and two were bangers. anyway, moving on to tier three. A lot of players to get through this week. I mean, I don't know how your tier three looks, but mine's are these. This might be even longer than the last one. But anyway, with that said, we're going to give a shout out to our partners over at W Energy first. Fantastic Tasting Energy. All of the energy you need to get through your day. You head on over to w.gg or use the W Energy app in our promo code, is Poi and Soi. That's P-O-I-N-S-O-I for 10 % off. Your order, Nolan. Let's talk some NFL fantasy football. So we are here to talk Tier 3. Know that we're going to start off as we always do with the quarterback position. year's last year's excuse me last week's tiers were. Nolan: Woo woo! Last year. Keoni McKeague: much bigger than the tier one. I believe you had 777 and five right for your tears. Yeah, it's pretty good. I can't believe I remember that. It was a whole week ago. anyway, we're here to talk about our tears. Nolan first. Oh, actually, gosh, I keep doing that. I was like, let's say who is in the tears for fantasy pros again. Shout out to fantasy pros. If you haven't been using them or I already gave the spiel already a couple of times, but I'll say it again. You're playing fantasy football. Be smart. Use fantasy pros fantasy. Nolan: Yes. Use it. Keoni McKeague: They have a Fantasy Pros app, all that sort of stuff. It's a great way, great tool for you to be able to use before your NFL drafts. And once you look over at them, go to the real list, which is our list. on poinsoypodcast.com. No, I'm just kidding. We don't have a site. But one day though. Yeah. But anyway, yeah. So we're going to give the tier three for quarterbacks. Number one, they have Jackson Dart. Number two, Justin Herbert, three Caleb Williams, four Trevor Lawrence, five Dak Prescott, six Brock Purdy and seven Patrick Mahomes. Nolan: What if... Dang, we were high on a lot of these guys. Keoni McKeague: I was like, a lot of these guys were already stated for us. So ⁓ I kind of explained this on the last pod, but I'll explain it again. Like I told Dolan for one, we're kind of trying to stick to five tiers. That's going to account for all top 150 players from the skill positions. Just because. Typically, that's about as far as drafts will go anyway. If you're in a 12-team league and get 12 rounds, it's 144 technically drafted positions, but that also includes defenses and kickers for most standard leagues. mean, for us, we're going 16 rounds, so obviously there's a little bit more players involved in that one, which would put us around that 144 mark. All things told, we're also factoring in that Superflex and all that sort of stuff. So our tiers will be a little bit different from their tiers. ⁓ And I have been as if you've been following the series know that I went pretty heavy on the running back position. Nolan also went heavy for upside swings in a lot of different positions. So clearly we're both going to have more players than these guys will have. So anyway, with that said. Yeah. Nolan: Mm-hmm. We'll try not to drag too long for you guys out there listening. Keoni McKeague: probably drag. No, I'm just kidding. Anyway, tier three quarterbacks. How many do you have and who are they? Nolan: I got 8. I ⁓ feel like for the quarterbacks my tiers were pretty relatively the same size for most of it. ⁓ Not maybe increasing by one each tier down. ⁓ But starting off for tier 3, I got Jalen Hurts. Now Jalen Hurts was obviously in your tier 2. He is typically a player that would be in a tier 2. ⁓ I just, you know, I'm kind of low on him. Keoni McKeague: Gotcha. Nolan: this season. Regardless of the new OC, regardless of their switching things up, I just don't think he proved that he is a great dual threat quarterback. I know he can get it done with his legs. There's a world where he'll push back up into tier two as the season progresses, or if I see something that's really gonna catch my eye with him. But as of right now, when there were games last season where he tried to sling it, it didn't look good. It was kind of ugly to watch. Keoni McKeague: Hot take. There's a world where he's like with the Titans or the Raiders and he does it. You know what mean? He's not a Super Bowl caliber quarterback. I'm just putting that out there. You know, you might be just in the perfect situation for him to play the way that he plays. You know what I mean? Yeah. Nolan: Yeah. Yeah, you know. Yeah, yeah. But he could also prove us wrong. So, you know, he is a Super Bowl winning quarterback, so we can't take that away from him. ⁓ Let's just see what he has this year. That's why he is on the cusp of Tier 2, but he's going to sit at the top of Tier 3 for me right now. Next up, I got Trevor Lawrence, the prince that was promised. We saw a resurgence to him last season from what we saw around his rookie and sophomore seasons. ⁓ Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Nolan: He seems to be a little bit more comfortable. I think that Liam Cohen has kind of unlocked something that's a lot more ⁓ pretty for his game. ⁓ The team offense has grown exponentially, especially for the receiving core, where he has a lot more players that he can trust that are sure-handed. ⁓ Hopefully, Brian Thomas Jr., you get a little more sure-handed in offseason. But I do think that he is someone to be keeping an eye out for. And before I go on. Keoni McKeague: for real though. Nolan: Keep in mind in most leagues, this tier is kind of the... Maybe your second quarterback off the board or the first one depending on how you're doing it. Superflex, these are still guys that are very viable for those of you who are going for it. just be aware of that. These guys have the opportunity to be your week to week winners or even a league winner. ⁓ Next up, I got Bonyx. Now, a lot of questions with how Bonyx played last season where there was a lot of... ⁓ What's the word? There was a lot of ⁓ excitement for what he was going to do in his second season with the Broncos. Didn't necessarily live up to it. ⁓ I think that there were weird moments where he is the fourth quarter quarterback, which didn't really make sense because why wouldn't you play like that for the first three quarters? ⁓ If he can kind of figure that out going into this season, I think that Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. I know. Yeah. Nolan: Broncos are going to be very dangerous team, and he's a player that could push up to a tier 2 as the season progresses, or even higher depending on what looks like. ⁓ Next up, Patrick Mahomes. Now I put him kinda smack in the middle of this tier because we don't know when he's returning, but when he returns, it's Patrick Mahomes. I felt disrespectful pushing him any lower than where he's at on my list right now. Keoni McKeague: agree. Yeah. Yeah. Nolan: So I'm just going to keep them there. Keoni McKeague: that you're going to feel disrespectful when I say mine. So ⁓ I'm about to disrespect the hell out of it. Nolan: Darn tootin'. Next up. ⁓ Next up I got Shakenbake Baker Mayfield ⁓ Look, I think he was dealing with a lot of injuries I'm not gonna make an excuse for him, but we've seen what Baker can do We've seen what kind of quarterback and the the dog that this guy has in him whenever he has ⁓ The opportunity to win a game to make some big plays Baker Mayfield will do it He gets it done on his with his legs if he needs to he's a very scrappy aggressive quarterback sometimes to his detriment Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: But I do think that Baker still has a lot left in him. And I think that he deserves to be kind of looked at as that, where he, two seasons removed, he was someone that was getting you 20 points a game fantasy-wise. So I don't think that's, he's too far off from that right now. ⁓ Next up, Super Bowl champ Sam Darnold. ⁓ I do, yeah, I know I kind of pushed him up, but there, I don't think. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Oooh! Nolan: that there is any question now that he's gotten his renaissance these past two seasons that he is a dangerous quarterback. Especially when you have someone like JSN, you have Rashid Shahid who can go for that deep ball. You have AJ Barner and I forgot who the other tight end was for the team, but they have a good dangerous group that's returning from their Super Bowl winning team. And I think that this is gonna be a big thing for Sam Darnold is comfort because he's literally the last two seasons jumped from team to team and had to redo it and relearn. Rechemistry rechemistry everything with their relationship with all the players between him and the receivers Now that he's actually comfortable and can kind of just go into it with the same guys that he ended the season Successfully with I think that he is someone that's gonna kind of take another step as well ⁓ Next I got Jacoby Percett ⁓ Yeah, yeah, yeah, I threw him up there cuz look there there is a reason why they kept him Keoni McKeague: Ho Nolan: as the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals. Reason why he did so well last season with or without Marvin Harrison Jr. ⁓ And I think that there's going to be another repeat of this this season because he's a great throwing quarterback. It's no surprise that he was breaking some records during last season or like how many passing ⁓ attempts as well as yards or something like that. But Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: I have no doubt that he's going to have something like that again this season because of just that. I don't think there's any reason why not, right? ⁓ He isn't necessarily a dual threat quarterback, you know, he is just a passing quarterback, which is the tough part because if that's taken away from him during any defensive games, like, you're going to be a little sad. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Mm-hmm. I think I know a wide receiver that might be in your tier three. Yeah, I guess we will. Nolan: we'll find out soon. And to round out the tier three, ironically, right under Jacobi Percet, I have Kyler Murray. So yeah, so I in agreement with what you said last segment. I you know, I think I know I know, but Keoni McKeague: disrespectful put him below the guy who replaced him ⁓ god what a slap in the face Nolan: I just, need to see it. I think he is a great quarterback still. I think he has a lot to give. I think he can return to a near MVP caliber that he played with previously, but I need to see it first. I need to know that, you know, his mental state has not diminished because of, you know, the, the lack of success or, ⁓ the locker room or whatever the coaching staff it was for the past couple of seasons with, ⁓ the Cardinals. ⁓ he is going to ideally a better locker room, a a better coaching staff. So I'm assuming that he can push up higher than where he is currently on my list, but I didn't want to completely shaft him to a different tier, so I'm just going to keep him there at tier three. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, I was like, I don't disagree with that at all. Yeah, my tier three is going to start off with some hot takes and end with some hot takes as well. it's a very wild tier. I obviously kind of mentioned who was in my tier two, as you will have heard that last week. I ended with Jackson Darten and then moving on to my tier three. Before I say who's in my tier three, first of all, I have eight players as well. I will also say that my tier three is in sync with my tier two, where I bought in on guys who I think will have high upside from the rushing standpoint. Those are guys that I put in this tier. You'll see a lot of names that are probably surprising for a lot of people. So my first overall quarterback in this tier is going to be Malik Willis. ⁓ Yeah, I know. Again. ⁓ This is a guy that I feel, as we've kind of mentioned before with some of these other Cubies. Yeah, yeah. But that's only for Patrick Mahomes or Chris Collins. Anyway, Malik Willis, mean, he's somebody that we saw step into a system with Green Bay where he could thrive. And I think as he steps into this new system with the Miami Dolphins, Nolan: Chris calls her. This is a guy I know. Keoni McKeague: Obviously, they're going to be without Jaylen Waddle. They're going to be without Tyree Hill. They're going to be without, you know, lot of the guys that they had this last year. This is going to be a pretty much a rebuilding situation for the Miami Dolphins. ⁓ But as has been mentioned over many a pod, I believe they have five first round picks over the next two or three years. ⁓ But on top of that, they have a plethora of picks this year, which means that they will be doing they will be drafting to build around him. Right. Nolan: some soul searching. Keoni McKeague: Exactly. This is a very deep offensive line class. I wouldn't be surprised if that's where they go. But I also wouldn't be surprised if they try to draft his new wide receiver one. ⁓ This is going to be something that we're going to be monitoring through the draft. But more importantly, with Malik Willis, think that even though I believe that he probably has a better throwing arm than Justin Fields, he has all the same rushing upside that Justin Fields has. if you're I believe 16, something like that. Could be higher actually, nah I'm thinking about it, maybe 12, I don't know. Cause you guys are 14, right? Okay, sounds like it. So they'll have a good chance of getting like a Makai Lemon, getting, yeah. Nolan: Number 11. I was gonna say, think Mekind Lemon would be a nice fit for them there. Keoni McKeague: So there's a lot of options for them if they just decide to go and fix the trenches. I think that's another great idea for them. But all things told, HN is still there, which means I think that if things go the way that I think they're going to go and they are a run heavy team, you're going to see a lot of Malik Willis and Devon HN running with the ball, which is not going to be surprising at all for those who have seen Malik Willis and watched Malik Willis since college. I mean, even coming out of the draft, I thought the Steelers were going to grab him the year that they grabbed Kenny Pickett. We saw how that worked out, you know what I mean? So all things like stated, Malik Willis is a guy who I think has a tremendous upside and that's why I'm putting him here at the top of my tier three. That's where I'm swinging when I'm at tier three. For me, I'm looking at this as sort of the mid rounds and this is where I'm kind of like, okay, which are the guys that I think could have breakout years and have, you know, the highest upside? That's why my list is going to differ from what fantasy pros has. They're more with the safe floors around this area. I'm more like who can win me my league around this area, especially Nolan: Mm-hmm. Keoni McKeague: in a super flex. anyway, Malik Willis top of that tier. Number two, I have Trevor Lawrence. So Trevor Lawrence obviously a much safer floor. We know what he has. Jaguar is much improved. A very good team this last year and they'll be even better this year, I think, especially because I have Jacobi Myers for an entire offseason, which will help him get acclimated to their schemes and such. And on top of that, if Trevor Lawrence takes even a slight step back, I mean, I think the system is insulated enough where it can make up for any of his shortcomings, but I don't think that there will be a lot of that because you know they still have BTJ who is still a threat even if he isn't necessarily their wide receiver one he's still somebody there that can take the pressure off of his other guys and Jacoby Myers and ⁓ Parker Washington I always I don't know why I always mix up Malik and Parker but yeah Nolan: Parker Washington. No, yeah, Malik and Parker, yeah. I know you just talking to the dolphins. Keoni McKeague: Especially because I just talked about the Dolphins right before the... But anyway, Trevor Lawrence, number two for me here. Number three, have Bo Nix. I think everything you said and more, you know, with the Denver Broncos, we're going to see what happens with them. They just got Jalen Waddle. So we'll see if he can throw the ball because as people have been saying, he overthrew the ball a lot. That's not a problem with Jalen Waddle. You know what I mean? That boy can go out and get that ball. So. I do think that that puts Jalen Watto much higher, which we'll get into and probably later on in this podcast. yeah, Bo Nix, I think is somebody that can take a step forward this year. Hopefully he does it. He's really the only thing holding up the Broncos from being true title contenders this year. yeah. Number four, I have Matthew Stafford. You had him in the last one. I put him here. ⁓ I agree with everything you said. This team is going to be a high powered offense. He was an MVP this last year. Obviously he's going to be somebody who will throw the ball a whole ton doesn't have a lot of rushing upside. But when you have two great receivers in Pukka Nakua and Devante Adams and maybe even one more from the draft, who knows? But yeah, you have all the weapons you need in order to make Matthew Stafford a top tier fantasy asset. There's no way could slide him anymore. At number five, again, this is another hot take. I have Tyler Shook. He's somebody that I really bought in on last year, was obviously somebody that I scouted as a Steeler friend because You know, are rumors that we were going to draft him, but he got drafted really early in the second round, which tells you how much of a talent he is. I think more than anything, a lot of people kind of downplayed him because of his combine performance, which I'm like, if people are still, you know, making out players to be terrible because of their combine performance, what are we even doing? Combines are not a great way to gauge how good a player is going to be. His college resume speaks for itself. His injury history is what is it what it is. So that's always going to be a concern. But at the end of the day, if this guy ends up rushing even a little bit more than where he was this last year, especially because he's ⁓ was known for that, you know, over in Louisville when he was with them in Oregon when he was with them. This is a guy that can have all the upside in the water with Kellen Moore running things back there. I think that that's an office on an offensive system that's going to have or going to be much improved this year, especially with getting try to Travis at the end in the backfield. So, I mean, I'm fully bought in on Tyler Shuck having a great year this year. We'll see where he finishes. at number six, I have Baker Mayfield. mean, I don't think you can knock him out of this tier. He's everything that you want in a QBE. So realistically, it's just going to come down to health. mean, they did lose Mike Evans, so that sucks. But Chris Godwin, I mean, I think more than makes up for that. Yeah, exactly. And then, of course, you got like the Jalen McMillan. You got whatever the other kid's name was that was balling for him for a little bit that did the backflip. What was the? Nolan: mecha buka. ⁓ Tess Johnson. Keoni McKeague: There we go, Tess Johnson. I was like, yeah, that boy was balling too. So this is a crazy wide receiver core. Really doesn't have much. They re-signed Kate Otten. So Baker Mayfield's to the moon for there. And then seven and eight. Yeah, I was was different from you a little bit here too. Patrick Mahomes, I put him at seven. And the only reason I had to slide him down is he's never had a significant injury in his entire career. This is a pretty bad one. It looked very bad last year. Nolan: True. It's gonna be a benchmarker for him. Keoni McKeague: He's going to be trying to get himself back because obviously, you know, with the chief's window being very small right now, as far as Nolan: I mean the windows like three more years, you know what I mean? Keoni McKeague: Yeah, exactly. I mean, if that's any telltale sign of where he's going to be at, mean, maybe that also speaks to his recovery, maybe not being good enough for him to come back at the beginning of the season, because maybe Travis Kelsey also knows that this might be a lost year. And that's why he signed on for a few more years. You know what mean? So. Nolan: Yeah, yeah. Keoni McKeague: All things told, I'm just kind of a little bit negative on the Patrick Mahomes situation, even though I agree. Patrick Mahomes is Patrick Mahomes. If he wants to be, he'd be tier one, but hopefully that doesn't put him in a position where he ends up getting himself hurt. Last year, he was trying a little too much and we saw how that worked out. And the guy I have right below him, which I know, I know this is just like I went off the rails here, but I will defend it. It's Justin Fields, man. If Justin Fields is the starting QB for the Kansas City Chiefs to start the year, especially if the original timeline of late November, December ends up rolling out for Patrick Mahomes and they don't try to rush him back in, like you said, if they end up winning, this is by far the best supporting cast that Justin Fields has ever had in his career from a defensive and offensive standpoint and coaching standpoint. This is everything that he is. I called it before the season or before the offseason started. Nolan: Yeah? Keoni McKeague: I believed wholeheartedly that Justin Fields would get cut and land with the Kansas City Chiefs. Obviously it's very different. They traded for him. But I fully believe that if Justin Fields landed here, I think that this is a system that is perfectly built for his game. They have a very good offensive line. They have a very good offensive minded head coach. They have a tight end one who is more than willing to do the little things and move away from the pocket just to get him, you know, get himself open. This is the system that's built for Justin Fields. Nolan: Same, same. Mm-hmm. Keoni McKeague: I think that he will be a top tier QB this year as he was slated to be last year when he was with the Jets. Again, a lot of that that happened with the Jets wasn't his fault. A lot of people pointed to him being the big reason why, I mean, they sucked either way, you know what mean? So with Justin Fields, without Justin Fields, they were terrible. He had some top five performances last year when he was on the field. I think that that continues. He clearly shows that when he wants to run, And he usually does. I mean, this is a guy that can sweep up yards very quickly and can get you touchdowns very quickly. So I'm I'm putting Justin Fields in this tier because I believe wholeheartedly that he can make a comeback this year. Again, this is all with the, you know, caveat of like if Patrick Holmes is starting day one, then obviously that fully throws him out the window. Yeah. And it should also say how good Patrick Holmes is that I still put him above him fully injured right now. So anyway. Nolan: All out the window. Keoni McKeague: Let's move on to the running back position starting off with the fantasy pros edition of this their tier three starts off with Chase Brown Jeremiah love Kenneth Walker Josh Jacobs Derek Henry Breeze Hall Kyron Williams and Bucky Irving if you're wondering why we're laughing it's because a lot of these names were stated already ⁓ in the last couple of tears for us Nolan: Because our list is absolute. Keoni McKeague: are more accurate. I don't know. I think the one thing that I was looking at when I was looking at these lists is like I get what they're saying. know what I mean? But a part of me also feels like, okay, like if I'm the ninth pick, I'm not getting a lot of the guys that are in their tier ones. You know what I mean? Who do I think has the value at that pick is like where I was thinking about it. The last three years I've been picked 12, so even more so. I had like a longer list of guys that I'm like, this is who I feel comfortable with landing you with me and having that upside value. So that's why our lists are a little bit longer. I'm just going to put that out there. But anyway, Nolan, how many do you have in tier three for your running back position? Nolan: I have 13. Keoni McKeague: We're very close. Yeah, we're right around the same spot. okay. That's like, very, very, very close. Nolan: Okay. Yeah. Starting off, tier 3, Derek Henry. I want to see more consistency with him coming into this season. so, boom, tier 2, easy. I, because everything you said last segment, he is still Derek Henry 6'3", 240 pure... Keoni McKeague: ⁓ yeah, okay. Yeah. Yeah. You know, funny. We both said two different heights and weights, but I'm like, that's how I know. that's how big he is. You don't even know. You know, I think there's somebody who is like fantasy pros has him listed at six five. So that's why I'm like, nobody even knows he's just a monster of a guy. He could be seven feet. We wouldn't even know. Nolan: I think it's 6-3. I didn't want to correct you, but I was just like... Because when you just see this big hulking figure running through the hole, you can... Holy... ⁓ my god, seven foot running back? ⁓ my god. Sorry, that's beyond the point everybody. Keoni McKeague: Good Lord. It's like seven foot 280. Like, it's just like, can we just, can we just not play defense? Anyway, sorry. Nolan: Boom, boom. ⁓ But yeah, everything that we've talked about him already, he's still dead currently. He takes care of his body. His diet that has been reported is insane. What are you laughing about now? Sorry everybody. Keoni McKeague: It's not it's not appropriate for the pot I'll say it after because it just sounded like you said something else. Go ahead. Yeah, who's your number two in this tier? Nolan: Alright, alright. Anyway, ⁓ Jeremiah Love, you know, I'm not I'm not a big follower of college football. ⁓ But there are names that have stood out to me as their season has ended and progressed and going into these draft combines. Jeremiah Love is one of those names that has stuck out ⁓ religiously. So I got to give you know, he's going to go to one of these teams that is in need of a running back. I think that's clear. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Nolan: clear in a way how the decision is going to be made. If it's a team that decides to take him when they have a tier one or tier two running back, you know, I, it's a weird situation, but I'm going to assume that one of the dire need teams is going to be picking him up. And I think that he's going to have, you know, I don't want to say an Ashton Gentie season, rookie season, cause I think there is a possibility of him having a better. rookie season, given how certain teams are available for that. ⁓ But he is going to be higher in my tier 3 just because I think he's going to have a positive benefit immediately when he starts. ⁓ Next on my list, Travis Etienne. For the main reason that he had a great last season, he's moving to a better situation I think for him individually. ⁓ And I think that with, we still don't know what's going on with Kamara. So I'm not going to say what is what, but if they decide to have him as their their lead back and then Kamara is kind of like the passing back. Cool. Perfect. Done. But I think that this is going to be a big opportunity. I think we both agree that the Saints in much respect are being very overlooked in how their team is being built this season. Yeah, I think. Keoni McKeague: ⁓ yeah. ⁓ yeah. Can I just say I have seriously put some thought into maybe not so much the Super Bowl bet, but like maybe divisional winner bet. You know what mean? I have Panthers, Bucks, Falcons. It's a tough division, but there's a chance. Yeah, I'm saying. Depending on the odds. We'll see what the odds are. You know what mean? Yeah. Nolan: you Yeah? Yeah, because it's what? Them? Panthers? I might, I might join you on that, you know? Get some going! Follow us for points still at bets! And I'm just kidding, um... Keoni McKeague: Yeah, we're not good. We're kidding here. We lost all of them last year. Did you did you put in for the Rams? ⁓ yeah, yeah, yeah. I keep I keep thinking they were in the Super Bowl. They were in a pseudo Super Bowl because they played against the Seahawks and so. Nolan: We've won some. No, I won some! Anyway, ⁓ No. I would've lost though. But this year... Yeah. Should've been soup. If they had beaten the Seahawks, they would've- Anyway, Keoni McKeague: If they beat the Seahawks, they would have won. ⁓ the Super Bowl. Got you. I was like, yes, they would have won if they did beat the Seahawks. Nolan: Yeah. I mean, you get, yeah, because NFC, yeah. Anyway, ⁓ next on my list, Breece Hall. Everything you said last, ⁓ last year about him is correct. In a season that was from the get-go a sham for the Jets. There were games where he played quarterback and threw a touchdown. ⁓ He's great in the pass game and he was great in the run game. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Yeah. Preach, sister. Nolan: Whether or not he's happy about his situation at the start of the season, I don't think it matters because I think he understands that this is a business and if he wants his value in stock to go up, he's going to play his butt off. And he has the ability to do so. I think we're now what, two years removed from when he came back from injury and he's each year gotten better and better. So I'm assuming that's where we're going to be at this year. Kind of a new QB situation. Keoni McKeague: Yep. Nolan: hopefully for his benefit. Next on my list, got Gervonta Williams. ⁓ I think there's a reason they brought him back. I think that he showed a lot of consistency for what this Dallas team has lacked a lot since the Ezekiel Elliott dates. So I think that this is a fantastic starting point for their running back for this offense. got kind of, you know, I don't want to say it is, but from the, for the time, that I've followed football. This might be the best Dallas offense I've seen from them. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Yeah. Nolan: Yeah. So him coming back shows a lot of faith in what he's able to bring to this team. So that's why I have him there. Next on the list. Yeah, absolutely. Next on my list is Kyron Williams. Everything you said last year as well. He is volume based, but he produces when he gets the volume. Where they're running it back this season. I don't think that there's going to be much changes to how this offense is run with McVeigh. Not saying that he's an old, you know, Keoni McKeague: Hell of a year, well deserved. Shout out to Gervonta, man. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yep. Mm-hmm. Nolan: can't teach an old dog new tricks. He somehow figures things out as he goes. He's just one of those great football minds. ⁓ So I think Kyron's going to be used and I think the evolution to his game last year was they did a lot of false blocking and letting him slip out and then Stafford would just throw it up the middle to him. They're probably going to use a lot more of that this year because that's a lot of what he was able to do yardage wise last season. And so that's why I have him there. Next on the list, Bucky Irving. Now. Bucky was a very divisive one for me as I was thinking through it. Mainly because of his health. I don't know what the situation is. I think his lower extremities are fine. I think that wasn't the issue. the lack of reporting on what was going on with his shoulder. ⁓ If it was separated, if it wasn't, what's the health of it? I don't know if there's been really any reports of him getting any sort of like procedures done in the off season to strengthen it or if he's just doing rehab to strengthen muscles around it. But Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: in the off chance that he re-injures it, he's gonna drop down the list. So I kinda had to keep him in the middle of my tier three ⁓ with the idea that if he does do well, then we're gonna get the rookie season bucket Irving back. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, I agree. Nolan: Next on my list, actually have Deandre Swift. I thought, you know, the fact that Ben Johnson and him kind of, I don't want to quote unquote squash their beef from their Lions days. I think, I think there was a clear mutual respect between them. Deandre Swift had another consistent season with this team. And I think that's going to repeat this year, especially with how the offense is moving along. And I don't Keoni McKeague: Yeah, I agree. Yeah. Nolan: You know, I don't think Kyle Monunga has shown me anything yet that's telling me that he's going to usurp up, right? That's... Yeah. I don't know why I keep getting... I don't know if it's the color sets, but I keep getting him and Woody Marks mixed up on their teens, I'm... Yeah. But yeah, I'm... Keoni McKeague: Come on, I'll go here. Yeah, that's a little racist, but that's good. Nolan: Jersey colors. You suck. Next on my list, Gwynshodd Judkins. Damn it, Q. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, I bet. I don't know if it's their colors. Nolan: She sucks so much. This is why we can never get anything done for those of you who are still listening to us. Keoni McKeague: Like, ⁓ I obviously knew where you went, but my brain was just like, that's a little... Maybe clarify just a little bit. We're in a different world now. You can't just be saying things like that. Anyway, right on. Nolan: You ⁓ Anyways, Quinshawn Judkins. ⁓ We've talked about this Browns team where they have not necessarily had a clear direction with their offense. We don't even know who their quarterback is. But when it comes to NFL football, one thing you can be sure is that running backs are used. And the fact that Quinshawn is their starting running back one for this season tells me a lot about where this offense is going to go. So I think that this is going to be Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: kind of his time to shine once again. Next on my list is Trevion Henderson. Now, he kind of had a weird falling out in the second half of season. He didn't start this season really strong as well because they kept using Ramondre. ⁓ But I think it's going to be moving to more of a 1A, 1B as this season starts with Trevion being the 1A. And that's my hope. I mean, we'll find out more as the summer progresses. We're all hoping that. ⁓ Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. We're all hoping that. Nolan: But think he has the talent to usurp Remandre and be a very big threat for a team that is probably going to be fighting to re-enter that contender label. Yeah. Not with the other division. Yeah. Keoni McKeague: That's very true, yeah. Not within their division though, because it's like divisionally that, I mean, it's just the bills and them, but you know, pass that though, you know what mean? Nolan: They'll be fine. ⁓ Next is R.J. Harvey. ⁓ You know, we don't really know what's going on with J.K., right? He resigned, didn't he? But we don't know what his health is going to look like as it kind of goes into it. R.J. Harvey kind of took off a little bit. I'm not going say he had a rocket ship second half of season, but he definitely showed a lot more. I think he is the running back that Sean Payton likes more. Keoni McKeague: He did resign. Malta, your extension. Nolan: So I think that this is another opportunity for a running back to kind of take something take an opportunity and run with it Next on my list David Montgomery new situation new team Houston Texans He's still young. He's healthy. He is a running back that can actually Make a name for himself now that he's out of the shadow of Jameer Gibbs which is ironic because Montgomery was the one that started when Gibbs was the the rookie season. ⁓ But now we're going to have ⁓ him clear in a way with just Woody Marks behind him. ⁓ And I don't think there's any reason why we would think that Woody Marks is going to usurp him. David Montgomery is that bit like kind of like stockier back, much more powerful, straight up the middle. And with a with a team that's looking to chip away at being a playoff contender, this is going to be the running back for them. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: last in my tier three. Now he's on the bottom of Keoni McKeague: He could be the buzz to Woody's Woody. All right, guys, I'll catch you later. Nolan: Alright ⁓ The last on tier 3 now this is a player that When he is healthy and on could be much higher in my tier 3 But there's also the the scares that he could be dropped down to a tier 4 Camp scatabow Keoni McKeague: Whoa. Yeah, yeah. Nolan: Yeah, yeah. He is a aggressive... Yes. He is... We don't know what it's gonna look like. His injury for a running back is probably like the worst injury you could probably have because the fact that you have to cut so much as a running back, ⁓ dislocating and breaking your fibula, been there. ⁓ It's not fun to come back. Keoni McKeague: He's an enigma in fantasy football right now. Yeah. What is the percentage you think that they draft Jeremiah Love? Because that's heavily rumored, but I'm just like, it doesn't really make sense, but I get it. you know what I mean? Nolan: I think. I think that it's a win-win if they do. Because one, you're getting a top tier running back. You have Kam Skadabo who was, when he was healthy, ⁓ in a sense, almost a fantasy darling as a, from where your draft pick was of him or free agency pick up of him was. ⁓ So you're going to have two running backs who are kind of absolute missiles when it comes to the game. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. ⁓ yeah. Nolan: ⁓ But Cam's biggest issue is his health and there there could be a world where if they draft him and Camp Scatabo is the starting running back You have Jeremiah Love backing up him when his health is not doing well. Like that's that's a dangerous tandem to have ⁓ Because you can definitely it would it would definitely suck but for the Giants themselves you So ⁓ Keoni McKeague: Yeah, would suck for fantasy, you know, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nolan: Fingers crossed for Cam. I love him. He is a knucklehead, ⁓ obviously. And I'm hoping he learns to be a little bit more healthy this year, a little smarter. Yeah. Keoni McKeague: Hopefully. Hopefully. I was like, hopefully Harbaugh is already working on that, especially with him and Jackson Dart, because that's the last thing we need is just this injured duo to stay injured for the rest of their careers. ⁓ But was that the end of your tier? Okay, that was all 12. Okay. Or 13, you said, right? Yeah, I have 12 in my tier. So we were very similar. lot of the names are in there with a few notable differences. But to start off, the top of the tier, because obviously I didn't have a lot of the guys that you mentioned because they were in my other tier. But to start off, my top for tier three is Travis Etienne. Believe in everything you said. Nolan: You Keoni McKeague: I am still firmly on the train that Alvin Kamara will be cut and retire. or cut and join some other team. But I do think that they're going to use the June 1st designation on him. ⁓ Similarly to the AJ Brown situation. It's just more money coming off the books for them. That kind of whole deal. I know he's already stated that he would be willing to stay with the team. If that ends up being a thing, if it doesn't end up being a thing, cool. I don't think that he really impacts Travis Etienne all too much. ⁓ I mean, this is Kellen Moore's team now. This is very different squad. Obviously, he doesn't have really any ties to Calvin Camaro. They already let go of a lot of their vets. It would not surprise me that Alvin Kamara is the next sort of one to be let go. And Travis at the end, again, proved why he was such a good fantasy asset for a few years with the Jacksonville Jaguars. He had that again last year, except, you know, obviously they were trying to push somebody else who is actually in this tier for me as well. ⁓ right below him, I have Trevion Henderson. ⁓ Nolan: Mm-hmm. ⁓ Keoni McKeague: for all the reasons you said and then of course from having him and seeing firsthand what he can be He has more than, you know, upside of a tier one player. ⁓ He's very, very talented, can do all the little things. I'm not sure why Mike Vrabel doesn't like him, ⁓ but that is obviously going to be the only hang up on him is this weird Ramon J. Stevenson love that Mike Vrabel has. Obviously as a blocking running back, he's much better than Trevion, but all things told, if that's the only reason that you don't give this kid more run. mean, really, that's the only reason why I have him in tier three. You know what mean? I would put him higher if I knew he was going to be starting no matter what. But I do agree with you that he will be 1A this season. In my third one is somebody that you didn't list off that I do have here, and that's Chupa Hubbard. I do believe that the Chupa Hubbard situation has only improved. The Panthers are much improved. That offensive line is now one of the best in the entire NFL. And on top of that, they no longer have the lingering shadow of Rico Daudo hanging over him. So I think with that and the fact that they have Jonathan Brooks listed as the RB2, I mean, that should tell you just about everything you need to know about that running back room. They paid him an extension. They believe in him clearly. They let go of Rico Daudo. All those things point to Chuba Hubbard being the number one here. And I think that a healthy season on a team that has been revitalized. mean, I think Chuba Hubbard to the moon this year, man. So ⁓ number four, I have Byshell Tooten. ⁓ Jacksonville Jaguars let Travis Etienne walk and that pointed to Bajau Tutin being the number one. They obviously went out and signed Chris Rodriguez, but I don't think anybody believes that Chris Rodriguez is going to usurp Bajau Tutin. He's going to be a very good compliment to him. I think he's actually the perfect compliment to him being kind of more of a burly back to Bajau Tutin's more kind of quick back game. They could literally be a I guess, Teemu version of Sonic and Knuckles because realistically, I believe that Baisho Tooten has the same kind of ⁓ speed and upside that a guy like Jameer Gibbs has. And he saw that. We saw that from him in flashes. And I think that he'll get the run. OK. All right. I made the buzz and Woody, you said, darn Tooten, we're done with those jokes. we're probably not. But yeah, I put him there. I love the system he's in. I mean, Liam Cohen, obviously. Nolan: darn tootin'. Keoni McKeague: the offensive mind he is so ⁓ and clearly he believes in him and he drafted him so you know all those ties all those things we've mentioned it before last year was a little bit of an outlier year for a lot of these guys but we saw them kind of coming out into their own near the end of the year The coaches that drafted them clearly have a role for them, but they have to like give the respect to the guy who's there and then slowly push them out as we saw with almost everybody this off season. yeah, mean like literally like if Co-comit were to get cut, that wouldn't surprise me at all. Nolan: That wasn't at all. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Anyway, number five, have Jovante Williams. Agree with everything you said. One of the best offenses is this Cowboys offense. He's very, very good. Well deserved on the contract. And I think he's one of the safer floor guys in this tier. Number six. Yeah, I was like number six. Moving on, I got David Montgomery again. ⁓ Him being with the Houston Texans to me says that he's going to be running a whole ton. Like you said already, Woody Marks doesn't really scare me when you're thinking about who's going to. Nolan: Yeah, that's a great way to put it. Keoni McKeague: get more touches, it's going to be David Montgomery. We saw that he could be a workhorse back when he was with the Chicago Bears. Then he moved over to the Detroit Lions and did the exact same thing until Jamiro Gibbs came. And that really came down to just Jamiro Gibbs just being the supreme talent that they picked up. I think that he steps right back into the conversation as like an RB one guy. So I believe wholeheartedly that the Houston Texans are going to run him out. Technically, they improved offensive line. I mean, when you went from 30 second to like Nolan: Technically, we've heard that story before. Keoni McKeague: 30 I mean. ⁓ Anyway ⁓ right after him I have Quinchon Judkins. Again for him it really comes down to the familiarity and the system that he's already in. Obviously they have a new head coach there so that's going to be something that is going to be worth monitoring. But as far as the type of play that he has and his work horsemanship I mean I feel like. Nolan: It's improvement. Who's the coach now? Keoni McKeague: some you know, funny, I was trying to think of the name when we're talking about it, but Nolan: Todd Manken. Keoni McKeague: I can't remember. There you go. Tom Monkin, ⁓ who was the Ravens defensive coordinator? No. Is that who he was before? OK, got you. Nolan: Yes, yes. But he was also previously a Brown's coordinator, or OC. Keoni McKeague: ⁓ gotcha. So probably before the whole. hardball era I guess. But yeah, so he comes back I think just because he's coming from like another AFC North team. He's going to bring that same mentality. know grit and grind. Quincy Judkins is a grit and grind type of guy. I think he's going to get a workhorse back roll. So that's why I put him here. And obviously the quarterback situation, we have no idea who's there. So it doesn't really matter. They don't need to throw him the ball. They just need to hand it off. So ⁓ right below him, I put Bucky Irving. I didn't feel great about putting Bucky Irving here. ⁓ Mostly because I don't even feel great about putting Bucky Irving anywhere in this tier, but I felt like I had to just because the upside is there. The talent is there. It's just something went wonky last year. I don't know if it's mental. Yeah, I don't know if it's an injury thing or if it's just some other mental thing or what, but Bucky Irving. Nolan: Yeah. I see it. Something was not being said. Keoni McKeague: I don't know. He just went from being this guy that I was like, holy crap, he might be one of the best to like, I don't even know where he is this year. So we'll see what happens. Yeah, no, yeah, quite literally might be. then, you know, with that team being kind of in a huge change type of situation with Mike Evans leaving, I think culturally, it's going to be very different for them. ⁓ But anyway, after him, I have R.J. Harvey. ⁓ Nolan: He might be a what if, you know? Mm-hmm. Keoni McKeague: For everything that you said, agree. ⁓ hardly. The only worry is going to be where is J.K. Dobbins this year. But I do think that, you know, this is a guy who was again drafted. I know technically J.K. Dobbins was brought in. So I mean, it's same same, I guess, because they were both brought in by the same head coach. But I mean, R.J. Harvey has all the talent. He just really needed to put things together. I think they were struggling near the end there because they also had kind of bad play out of Bo Nicks as well. So can't really be efficient when your quarterback is not existent. So. Yeah. My next two paired together, one after the other, similar to the Cowboys situation with the wide receivers. It's a situation for these running backs, which are the Pittsburgh Steelers running backs. I yeah, have Jaylen Warren and Rico Dotto paired together because I do still think that there is a world where not exactly how Kenneth Gainwell was used, but there's a world where Nolan: I felt like that one was coming. Keoni McKeague: we get both of these running backs being significant in this system because obviously Pittsburgh is going to lean heavily on the run, irregardless of who the quarterback is. Obviously it's going to be a different offensive system because we will be finding ways to be creative with our wide receivers, which we haven't throughout the entire time Tomlin was here. with these two in here, I you really, I really will be curious to see how the training camp battle goes, you know? ⁓ I was like 1A, 1B, maybe 1C, 1D. We'll see. I literally don't know. But these two guys obviously stick out. And with both of them being supremely talented, I can just imagine this being sort of a you go, go, you go, I go, you go, I go type of situation. And then to round out the end of this, it's Deandre Swift. Excuse me. ⁓ Again. Nothing super spectacular about Deandre. I still think Kyle Menunga has a chance to usurp him at some point, but it's not quite yet. And I agree with what you said. It's like he's there, but he's not necessarily taking over for him this next year, especially with them being on the trajectory of competing in the NFC. So let's move on to the wide receiver position because the running backs clearly took us a little bit. ⁓ Let's start with Fantasy Pros. Fantasy Pros has the following wide receivers in tier three, which are George Pickens, Chris Olave, Rashi Rice, AJ Brown, Tedaroyah McMillan, T. Higgins, Garrett Wilson. So a couple of names in there that weren't in our other tiers. But Nolan, ⁓ see, you know, it's funny. Again, this is why I was prioritizing running backs. The running back tiers are a lot smaller than the wide receiver tiers and Nolan: Hmph. Hmph. Keoni McKeague: Maybe that's saying something, you know what mean? Like there's a lot more names you can draw from that will be about the same wide receiver wise than you will from the running back side. So anyway, who do you have here in wide receiver? How many do you have to start off with? Woohoo! Nolan: Yeah. 14. Remember, I'm the wide receiver one that I... Unless you have a larger number than I do. Keoni McKeague: ⁓ no, okay. was like, I had to count. was like, actually, wait. No, I have less than you, but I still have 12, so yeah. Nolan: okay. Starting off, I got T. Higgins. ⁓ I think there were multiple situations last season where he outperformed Jamar Chase. Not for anything that Jamar Chase did. It's just that I think you see the talent that T. Higgins is and there's a reason why they're, you know, whether everyone agrees or not for his contract and what they paid him. ⁓ There's a reason why he got his contract and the fact that they use him like that. Keoni McKeague: No, I agree with the contract. I just didn't agree with the same team paying two of them. Yeah. Nolan: No, no, no, I meant, you know, that's what I'm saying. Like, whether you agree that they should have shelled out the money when they know they needed to fill other voids. ⁓ Keoni McKeague: Yeah, it's like, like he is he was worth that money. But they had a lot of needs to address. Like, my gosh, I was like, they have to do it all through the draft now. Nolan: Yeah. ⁓ Yeah, that's always fun ⁓ After that I got Garrett Wilson, I think that he's gonna come back with a vengeance this season ⁓ He's one those players that I in a perfect world He may move up to a tier two just given that he might have a upgrade at quarterback, you know, that's to be determined because we We we're not gonna hark on it because we'll get to it in the later pod Keoni McKeague: say that that is an upgrade but it's also hard to say that that is a downgrade. Nolan: Cough Yeah, yeah. ⁓ So I'm excited to see because you know, as long as I'm assuming a lot of the I mean, there were injuries, but I'm assuming that a lot of the injuries were played up to be bigger than they were last season because they knew that the season was for not. So ⁓ I'm very sad to see Garrett Wilson come back to it. ⁓ Next up, I got Lad McConkey. You know, he should be the wide receiver one for this team. We're going to get. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: a new OC that we've talked about numerous times with Mike McDaniels who loves to get his wide receivers the ball. So I think that Ladd following a slump that he had last season is going to come back ⁓ much more aggressively and hoping he can be also another guy that moves up to a tier two. ⁓ Next up I got Jalen Waddle. You know, I was hesitant for how high I wanted to put Jalen Waddle. just because what we saw with Bo Nix last year, what we saw with actually how well or not well Courtland Sutton did last year, now you're entering a new fold with him. It's gonna be a very big question mark, I think. So I do hold out hope once again that he could be something dangerous, but it's ⁓ it's a question of what kind of Bo Nix we're getting this season, I think. Keoni McKeague: I agree, wholeheartedly. Nolan: Next I got Mike Evans. ⁓ You know, only thing that really bothers me with Mike Evans is his health because he is kind of in and out of the lineups due to soft tissue injuries, random injuries here and there. He obviously had a big one last year where he broke his clavicle. ⁓ So that that's always a danger. You're entering your 12th season. Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. Nolan: You're going to a team that for some reason is notorious for getting injuries, ⁓ whether you believe the conspiracy theories or not. ⁓ I do want to keep my fingers crossed for Mike Evans because that combination just screams ⁓ precaution ⁓ as a drafter. So I'm going to see where that goes. But Mike Evans is a big body vertical threat. You're getting Brock Purdy. You're getting a Shanahan system. I think that Keoni McKeague: Yep. Nolan: Also kind of balances out what we're looking at with where his health could be. ⁓ Next, got Devontae Smith. ⁓ Yeah, yeah. AJ Brown was almost a non-existent threat last season and who was there to step into it when he could? Devontae Smith. ⁓ You know, depending on where AJ Brown lands this season, maybe AJ will be higher on my list than where he is now. Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. Nolan: But as of right now on that team, the Eagles, Devontae Smith would be the receiver that I'm going for first. Keoni McKeague: If it does end up with a Patriots, where does AJ Brown you think finish our list for you? Nolan: Next time on- On the Patriots, he might be top of tier 3, bottom tier 2. I think I like that situation a lot more for him. And you know, I don't think it was ever a doubt of AJ Brown's talent. It's just what the team is using him for, how they went. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly. ⁓ Next on my list, you knew it was coming. Michael Wilson. Keoni McKeague: I like that. Yeah. Which was nothing. They were using it for nothing. Nolan: You know, I didn't want to, you know, I didn't want my eyes to be bigger than my stomach when it came to this situation. I think that he is a big bodied receiver. He had the outbreak that he needed to have last season to show what he could really do. Maybe this is a lot about kind of how much I consider Marvin Harrison Jr. because I will not be mentioning him after this sentence. But Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: I do think that the team is going to be looking at Michael Wilson as the new face of this receiving core. And you saw the camp... Sorry, sorry, of the wide receiver core. I think that's... Once again, I'm harking back to where I put Jacoby Brissett. Keoni McKeague: Second face is Cher McBride. Cher McBride is the receiver core. Nolan: There's a reason why they're starting week one with Jacobi Percet. And then now you're looking at Michael Wilson, who was his favorite outside of Trey McBride. And you're going to have those two guys who are going to be eating up this offense. ⁓ I think that it would be stupid if this coaching staff, new coaching staff comes into the season, not knowing what they're, can use. Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. Yeah, that was a hot one right there, Yeah. ⁓ Yeah. Yeah. Preach, sister. Nolan: Next on this list I got Luther Burden. ⁓ This is kind of the... it was a weird thing for me to do but I think I'm putting Burden above a Denze who I'll mention later. ⁓ But I think Luther Burden showed a lot more flashes of what he could do especially into that end leg of the season last year and once again a player that was drafted by the head coach Keoni McKeague: You Yeah. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Yep. Nolan: So think that this season is going to be a big breakout for him, especially now ⁓ that it's just cleared up for Ardunze and him. ⁓ I'm very excited to see where this season kind of takes with him. He is someone that, you know, it may not be like true consensus for a lot of people, maybe pro consensus is a little different, but he would be something I would be down to reach for. ⁓ Next on this list, I have AJ Brown. Now, Keoni McKeague: Yep. Nolan: AJ Brown could not be dropped too much further than where had him or than where he was originally on Consensus, but it's just that I don't know what his situation is going to be. As you can see, my kind of thought process as I get to like the bottom half of each tier is what is their situation? I don't know, so I can't really put them any higher, but they're kind of on that cusp of being dropped out of whatever tier it is. ⁓ AJ Brown, he only has up, like, you know, he only has to go up in tears for me. He's a great talent. He's relatively still in his prime, I guess you could say. ⁓ But I just need to know what's going on with him. What team he's going to be on, what this offense, if the Eagles keep him, what they're going to do with him because it seems like just such a waste for them for whatever reason. Next on my list, I got Tareon McLaurin. ⁓ I think it's... It was almost dangerous to finally have a wide receiver from the commanders so low on the list, but Terry ⁓ is their wide receiver one. JD McDaniels is someone that's tier one for us, probably more for the legs than the throwing, but he can throw and sling that ball. And scary Terry is a thing for a reason. So I do think that Terry ⁓ has an opportunity as well to kind of jump some spots. Next, Christian Watson. Keoni McKeague: ⁓ yeah. Mm-hmm. Nolan: Christian Watson came back last season from his injury and immediately made an effect. He is coming back with Jordan Love. ⁓ Dobbs is out of the picture. So Christian Watson, Jayden Reed ⁓ are pretty much two completely different receivers. So I think that this is going to be a great opportunity for him to actually kind of return to where he was before he tore his ACL. Next on the list is Emeka Ibuka. ⁓ You know. You... I wanted to put Godwin higher, but I didn't see a lot from Godwin's return last season. I'll give him benefit of the doubt. It was immediate season right after that leg injury. Yeah. No, no, no. It wasn't his knee. It was his ankle. It was his ankle. Keoni McKeague: How to say where his knee snapped in half Maybe it's a little more grace from you know, it's like well, whatever something was looking the way was Damn dog give him a year. She's like, don't know. He just didn't look the same after Nolan: was pointed the wrong way. ⁓ Yeah. No, no, that's why, that's why, that's why. I know. but that's also situation and... What the hell? But I think there is an argument to be made that Emeka Ibuka was potentially starting the season as the offensive rookie of the year. And I don't know what the fall off was. I don't know if it was him. or the coaching staff decided to just pivot in a different direction for what they wanted with the team. Cause it just seemed like you hadn't. Yeah, yeah. And it just seemed because Mike Evans was out of the season so long that he would be the guy that you're going for, that you're going to get the extra reps for. But it didn't. I'm assuming that's going to change the season. So he's there. Next on the list would be Roma Dunze because I wanted to keep him and uh, Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Teams game planning for even more. Yeah. Nolan: Luther Burden relatively close to each other so same tier ⁓ and Odunze was another guy who had a big step up last season compared to the season before that, his rookie season. And I think that ⁓ I don't think that Ben Johnson has any ill will towards Odunze but I would love to see how the tandem of Odunze and Burden plays out because of Ben Johnson's mind. Finally in this tier I got our favorite wide receiver Ze Flowers. Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Nolan: ⁓ you know, yeah, I dropped them down a bit. I'm assuming Keoni McKeague: Wow. Nolan: I'm assuming he's going to get the contract because what else are they going to do? ⁓ But I he's on that cusp. I just don't like his consistency. I don't like that Lamar hasn't shown he can be that true dual threat. And now with the new coach and stuff, the much more questions, right? Situation each bottom of tier. We don't know what the situation is going to play out to be. I don't have a lot of faith in him already, so I had to move him down to the very bottom of tier 3. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'm with you for that last little thought that you had there. ⁓ Similar, different, similar, but different in this tier. know what mean? A lot of the names that you said are in here, but obviously in a different order. To start off with, top of my tier two receivers is actually Terry McLaurin. ⁓ Terry McLaurin with Jade and Daniels is a lot different than Terry McLaurin without Jade and Daniels. I think, I believe the rookie year campaign. Nolan: And that'll do it. Cool. Hey, Marriotta did good. Keoni McKeague: I mean, yeah, he he did do good as a quarterback in football during the game, but I think the connection of him and Jayden McDaniels is or Jayden Daniels. Why do you keep saying McDaniels? Damn, that's NBA. Yeah. Timberwolves forward. Sorry, Jayden Daniels is, you know, next level. I think that when they lock in this year and I am still fervently on the train that Jayden Daniels is going to be coming back into form. Nolan: There's a quarterback in front of That's the NBA, yeah. Keoni McKeague: this year. I Terry McLaurin takes a big step forward and we saw that when he was playing with him in his rookie campaign. believe Terry McLaurin finished in the top five of wide receivers that year. there's a reason why you said they call him scary Terry, but more so, I mean, they haven't really added a whole bunch of competition in there for Jayden Daniels to throw to. Even though I think that this is one of the more underrated wide receiver rooms, just because they have a lot of really solid guys behind Terry McLaurin. But I do believe that Terry McLaurin with Jayden Daniels is going to be a big time boon this year. So number two. I have Michael Wilson. ⁓ I guess I believe in him more than you do. Nolan: You know, it's, it's because the the read I individually, I will put Michael Wilson above Marvin Harrison Jr. But I don't know if this news coaching staff is going to be like, let's get Marvin Harrison to the status that he's supposed to have. And then Michael Wilson gets kind of pushed down. I don't know. That's that was my thought process. But yeah. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Yeah. Ironically, you're the pessimist on this one. I'm in that opposite sense where it's like they have no ties to anybody, including Marvin Harrison, with this team. Very new coaching staff. Nolan: That is very true. Keoni McKeague: Michael Wilson from what you saw last year shows that he can be a wide receiver one and I think he is clear in a way the best receiver on this team as of right now. Who knows what Marvin Harrison can even be but more importantly I think that from a fantasy standpoint I really like the identity of him being in the system where you have Trey McBride so you already know there's somebody else that's going to be taking a lot of the shorter yardage, medium yardage type of stuff. Michael Wilson will be the medium to deep route running. I think that that's a combo made for you know whatever QB gets it and that's Jacoby Percett this year. Hopefully he's throwing the ball a lot because I really want to see Michael Wilson reach this peak of value that I have him at. But yeah, wholeheartedly agree that as far as like where they have them getting drafted, if you get him where he's supposed to get drafted, you're getting tremendous value. So I value him a lot higher than where he's actually. Yeah, definitely reach for that dude. Yeah. Go ahead. Nolan: Reach, ladies and gentlemen, reach. Also, random conspiracy theory. Cardinals are gonna kind of not tank, but semi-tank so they can draft Arch Manning. So that's Manning to Harrison Jr. Keoni McKeague: Okay. All right. I was like, unrealistically, he might not even be the number one QB off the board. So they could probably get him as the third or fourth QB. So ⁓ anyway, with that said, that's to number three. have Jaylen Waddle. ⁓ He did take a big step forward in this tier because of him moving to play with Bo Nix. ⁓ Not necessarily because I believe that he'll do Nolan: That's why I said semi-tank, so. Mm-hmm. Keoni McKeague: better with Bo Nix because I do think him and Tua had a really good rapport. But more so that I believe that the Broncos, their entire squad is taking a step forward. So I believe that if you're getting a guy like Jalen Watto who can take the top off of teams and does a lot more than what Cortland Sutton can do for you as a wide receiver one, I think he steps in day one, wide receiver one over Cortland Sutton. And that'll show in my rankings because I do not have Cortland Sutton in this tier. So yeah, exactly. So Jalen Watto to the moon this year for me. Number four, I actually have Alec Nolan: country. Bless Rad. Keoni McKeague: Pierce. ⁓ I think he's one of the more slept on signings from this offseason. Obviously they did not. ⁓ let Michael Pittman walk for a bag of chips and then sign him to a max contract for no reason. They clearly believe in the kid. He's stepping in as the top wide receiver on this team, even though his competition is really just Josh Downs. I mean, there's Tyler Warren, of course. But more importantly, I think that even if it is Riley Leonard, I had Alec Pierce when Riley Leonard was starting. Alec Pierce was still, you know, threat in that wide receiver room. So if he's that you're getting at this much of a value I still think that even if it's Riley Leonard starting for them next year Alec Pierce is gonna get a bump in value he's gonna be really really good this year that's why I have him above a lot of these names that I have below here which I mean you'll hear them they're probably the safer floor guys but all things told Alec Pierce showed that he's clearly a wide receiver one talent so ⁓ moving on to my number five it's Garrett Wilson ⁓ like we kind of mentioned already with what you said It's the Jets. They have Geno Smith. It's technically an upgrade. He's an upgrade over Tyrod. He's an upgrade over Justin Fields. I believe that wholeheartedly. ⁓ He's obviously an upgrade over Brady Cook. ⁓ But. More importantly, it's a guy that is willing to stand in the pocket and throw the ball. This is a team that's kind of underrated right now. We've seen the Jets fall apart. We know who the Jets are. They're obviously not a great organization. They're a pretty bad team. But they went on and got a lot of veterans on the defensive side. And then as far as offense, mean, they have a very good offensive line. They've been drafting to fix those trenches for many years at this point. So that offensive line is still very young. It's still very talented. they just need to kind of lock in this year. Gina Smith is going to be there. I think this is an approved city. This isn't ⁓ burnt peanut for those are shout out to the boy. But anyway. ⁓ Nolan: Logan. Noooo Keoni McKeague: Yeah, I mean, he's stepping into a situation that's much improved from his Raider situation. He's going to get more of a chance to actually throw the ball. Karen Wilson has shown that he can be a top tier wide receiver. I believe it was like two or three years ago when he was like wide receiver six. So I mean, he's not that far removed. The talent is all there. The only thing I worried about with this team is that there are no other threats really on the team. I know Addernay Mitchell is there. That might have been. Nolan: Hey Mason Taylor? Keoni McKeague: Yeah, so like not really a lot of threats on this team. ⁓ Not established, I should say. You know what I mean? Those guys can all be very good. I don't know, I you showed in flashes last year as well. Nolan: Room for improvement. Keoni McKeague: very much so. we'll see how they work out this year. I imagine they're probably still looking at somebody to draft. I think because they have two and 16, if I'm not mistaken. So I believe they'll draft defensively with the second round pick or with the second pick. And then at 16, I think they'll try to draft a wide receiver. Who that is, I don't know. Jordan Tyson makes a ton of sense. I would love for them to get him. But and that would be somebody that probably bump if he does end up with the Jets. But anyway, that's where I have Gary Wilson at number six. One, two, three, four, five. Yes. I have T Higgins for everything you said. I really I just took the upside swings on some of these other guys ⁓ Not saying that T Higgins is not better than all these guys. I think he's better than all of them safer floor all that sort of stuff. I Really have no reason to bump him other than I just took some upside swings with the guys before him. That's it ⁓ Rishi Rice right after him ⁓ Nolan: Yeah. Keoni McKeague: Again, the talent is all there. He showed that he can be a wide receiver one. It's just more so the quarterback situation. We'll see how that plays out. ⁓ It's not going to be great for him if Justin Fields is the starting quarterback, because as I mentioned before, I'm buying super heavy on Kenneth Walker and Justin Fields being a fantastic rushing tandem. But as far as a throwing, know what mean? Rashid Rice is a possession guy, so he can't be that guy for Justin Fields. ⁓ But that'll take a lot of creativity on Andy Reid's part. ⁓ Moving on from that, have Lad McConkey after him. This again just comes down to an approved team. Same situation, same wide receiver core. Nothing really changed. I do believe that Lad McConkey can have a resurgence of a year. But we saw the floor bottom out last year, you know what mean? So I think he lands somewhere between where they lofted him last year as being like this top guy in round two to where he was at the end of this last year where he was just like... I didn't even know where he was. Probably in the 30s or something as a wide receiver. Nolan: He, he like, let's, let's be honest, everybody. He was probably a free agent if it weren't for his namesake in a situation. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, yeah, quite literally. So ⁓ with that said, I think he lands somewhere here in the middle. I don't mind grabbing him because I still believe in the talent. There's just a lot of wonkiness with the Chargers offense. They obviously had a new head coach come in. So it's very different. think Mike McDaniels would do a lot to help him, though. That'll be somebody who helps his career tremendously. ⁓ Next, I have Luther Burden. Believe wholeheartedly everything you said. I think that he's above Roma Dunze. Well, not right now. He will be. I think that he will be above Roma Dunze as far as on this team's depth chart at some point. I mean, all pro talent type of guy. He's the type of guy that I think can be really, really high up there. ⁓ Again, I'm going with the same theme of like if he's drafted by this this coach, more than likely he's going to have a big role. Luther Burden is going to be one of those guys followed up by Roma Dunze, who's right after him. Also, because I believe in the Chicago Bears offense as a whole. Nolan: Mm-hmm. Keoni McKeague: I do think that Rumodunze still has a role in this offense. think him. I think that trio of young guys that they have, Odunze, Burden and Colston Loveland. mean, the future is bright and all three of those guys are tremendously talented. So the Bears have done really, really good drafting the last few years. ⁓ Anyway, next I have the combo from Tampa Bay. So Chris Godwin first and then Emeka Ibuka. Mostly comes down to the how many years I've pushed Chris Godwin down on the list. Nolan: ⁓ yeah. Keoni McKeague: never drafted him. He's always there. I skipped past his name and then he ends up balling out. So a year removed from, you know, this whole situation. I think that, you know, him and Emeka Obuka, there's going to be, yeah, this is going to be our new symbol for Chris Godwin. Just. But anyway, anyway, Chris Godwin, think with an improved Baker Mayfield, healthy Baker Mayfield will be very, very good and Emeka Obuka similarly. And then the final player that I have in here that is different from what you had, guess, is Wondell Robinson. ⁓ I do wholeheartedly believe that they signed him to be wide receiver one on this Tennessee Titan squad. He's going to ⁓ reunite with his former head coach and Brian Dayball. I just firmly believe that this guy is going to be one of those guys that gets a ton of targets. I think his target share last year was in the top 10 or so for what? Nolan: Mm-hmm. was insane. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, for wide receivers. I think that he's going to be one those guys to get actually might have been top five. ⁓ But target share is going to be there. We'll see how Cam Ward can get the ball to him, which is why I have him so low in this tier. I think there's a chance he could be somewhere near the top, but it's just mostly because I've not seen Cam Ward be like super efficient yet. So that's my only worry with him. But anyway, let's move on to the tight end position and start off with the fantasy pros ranking. So the tight end position for tier three. Wow, it's very big for there as well. ⁓ So we might actually have some differences here. They have Jake Ferguson, Joanne Johnson, Travis Kelsey, George Kittle, Brenton Strange, Isaiah Lakely, Dallas Goddard, Hunter Henry, Dalton Schultz, and Mark Andrews. wow. That's a list. And that is a very different list than what I have. So Nolan, how many do you have and who do you have in this tier? Nolan: I'm let you know right now. Keoni McKeague: Okay, okay. I have eight, so. Nolan: George Kiddel is nowhere near this tier. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nolan: ⁓ Just for the injury alone, not because I don't believe in him or anything like that. ⁓ Keoni McKeague: I will say right now, spoilers, I'm in the same boat. Nolan: Yeah, okay, right on. Starting off, I got Isaiah Likely. For all the reasons you said last segment, ⁓ returning, not returning, but he is pretty much, he was like handcuffed with his coach as they left the door at the Ravens. So I think that there's a reason, there's a reason. Theo Johnson is not it for that team. So I think Isaiah Likely going there is gonna be a nice big bodied receiver out of the tight end position for him. ⁓ Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. Pretty much. Mm-hmm. Nolan: with Jackson Dart who I I hark on a lot as being a great quarterback because he looks at every level of the play as it develops and then we'll find his guy. ⁓ But I think that Isaiah likely is going to be one of those guys that benefits from that. ⁓ Next I do have Arunde Gadsden. ⁓ He was just a random shot in the dark last season and he came out swinging. ⁓ Keoni McKeague: ⁓ my god, we got it. You kept Jackson Dart. Mm-hmm. Nolan: I'm ⁓ Keoni McKeague: Can I just say it really annoys me that every time I type in his name, like it auto corrects to orange. I'm just like, I'm like, I, I just read his name and I was like, just, it says orange gets, it says orange got sun. Nolan: Orange Gadsden God Sons Keoni McKeague: That's why I was like, ⁓ stupid auto-crack that keeps changing his name. Nolan: I mean his fault for having such a unique name ⁓ Keoni McKeague: Yes, good. mean, your parents tried very hard to make you stand out. Orange Godson. Nolan: ⁓ But yeah, I have him there. I think that we've seen one what John New Smith was able to do with Mike McDaniels. We've seen what Darren Waller has been able to do with Mike McDaniels. You're getting him there. That seems like a winning recipe. ⁓ Under that, I have Travis Kelce. For all the reasons that we've mentioned before, he's still got a lot left in the tank. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Yeah. No. Nolan: He was still one of, if not the main receiver of their offense last season. ⁓ And now you're getting potentially Justin Fields starting the season for you guys. We've talked about it before. A lot of the times when things don't go right, tight ends are kind of the safety blanket for rookie QBs. Justin Fields, I think, will have him as his kind of safety blanket because he is Travis Kelce. ⁓ Next, I have Jake Ferguson. Not much to be said. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Nolan: He has been a mainstay for this Dallas offense, a Dallas offense that we have harked on continuously, that they are firing on all cylinders. Jake Ferguson is one of those guys that benefits the most from that as well because he's used so well in that offense. And I'm excited to see kind of how they play with it this season, but I'm assuming it's right where he left off. Next, I do have Juwan Johnson, another Saints player. Keoni McKeague: Mm-hmm. Nolan: We're not going to echo all the sentiments we already gave to the Saints team, but Joanne Johnson is definitely going to have a big year if everything plays out accordingly with how they're building things right now. And then finally for this group, ⁓ I have Dalton Kincaid. Consensus has Dalton Kincaid higher. We've mentioned it in passing. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Nolan: The fact you got Kinkade, Nox who you just re-signed, Hawz... You can't trust any of them week to week. You can maybe stream and hope for the best. ⁓ But Dalton and Kinkade should be their Titan 1. Yeah, yeah, yeah. ⁓ But he is their Titan 1. ⁓ I would assume he would get more of the target share. And I... Keoni McKeague: In fairness, that's the tight end position in a nutshell, though. Yeah. Yeah. Nolan: Debatable if I wanted to have him as a tier four, you know what mean? Yeah, but that'll do it Keoni McKeague: ⁓ that's right. only had six. Yeah, I have eight in this tier. I will say I faded Dalton Kinkade out of this one, ⁓ but we'll get to that I think next week. ⁓ Nolan: Fair enough. When you're here, it'll be the next week, everybody. Keoni McKeague: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I'm just not sure if that's where I put him. ⁓ anyway, right now I have at the top of this tier is going to be Arundhigasin for everything you said and more. The Chargers look like they're going to be an improved offense. I think that he's going to be a part of that. So ⁓ showed in flashes what he could be. I'm still worried about the whole, like, you know, possession share, target share with the rest of the guys that are on this team. Quinton Johnson obviously had himself an inconsistent year, but showed that he is a guy who could be an impact player. You know this last year so around the cats and that's my only worry with him Number two, I have Jake Ferguson Like you said Dallas gonna be very very good I think he's part of the reason why they stay good is because he's consistent enough to be the third option second option Whatever option you need him to be sometimes first option if everybody's injured that kind of stuff. So he was George Pickens before George Pickens was you know, mean on this team. So Number three, this is where things get a little spicy. I have Kenyon's a deek ⁓ The rookie coming into the NFL this year depending on where he lands, know There's a lot of places that he could land that aren't great But there are a lot of places where he could land that are fantastic fits and if he lands in any of those spots ⁓ I know I said not to hype up the ⁓ combine tape, but His numbers were astronomically better than any tight end we've ever seen ever. So ⁓ supremely talented as a tight end, but really has the build of like a true wide receiver, just a little bit more stout in that kind of sense. But similar in size as far as like he's I believe he's only like 6'2", which is not very big for, you know, tight end position. Yeah, he's smaller, but he's, he's, yeah. Nolan: Damn. But apparently it's perfect for the running back position, right, Derek Henry? Keoni McKeague: He's yoked and super athletic. yeah, Kenyon Siddique to me screams as a guy who's going to be a tool guy. There's a lot of situations I really like for him. There's some that I don't really like for him. But the ones that were at least slated in a lot of the mocks, like Kansas City, like Washington, like Miami. All those situations to me scream a situation where he could step in and have a major role, even if it is Kansas City sitting behind Travis Kelsey. I think the two tight end system becomes something that they go back to, which is something that they did used to run. So I really like his upside there. Number four, I have Brenton Strange. I think the Jacksonville Jaguars that offense, I think the way that they play the weapons that they use. He's a guy that is similar to Jake Ferguson, maybe without all the. you know, high accolades of like the Jacksonville Jaguars being kind of as good as the the Dallas Cowboys. But it's still a team that performs really well. He's a big part of that. And I think that he can step in when they need him to. There are a lot of weapons there, but he's the he's the floor guy. He's the guy who got probably the most receptions throughout the middle of the year when they had that good run. So he's a guy that Trevor Lawrence looks to a lot right after him. I have Joanne Johnson. Nolan: Mm-hmm. Keoni McKeague: I mean, we already harked on the Saints. Very good. I think he's a big part of that. At number six, I have Chig O'Conquo. ⁓ Chig, now on the Washington Commanders, ⁓ is going to be the number one guy. I I said if Kenyon City lands there, but I still think that there's a world where the two of them can, you know, coincide and also help out a guy like Terry McLaurin because wide receiver wise, I don't think that there's anybody that stands out to me as like a clear and cut wide receiver two with the Washington Commanders. Those two guys could step into the pseudo role. ⁓ But even if that doesn't happen and Chigokun is the workhorse tight end guy here, ⁓ to me, mean, he showed flashes. Cam Ward just wasn't really good at getting him the ball. There were so many times that he was wide open. think Jayden Daniels is better at recognizing that he steps into the Zach Ertz role. And if Zach Ertz can perform like that at 40 years old, Chig, who is much younger and much more athletic, definitely can do some things for this Washington offense. ⁓ At number seven, have TJ Hawkinson. If I'm gonna say what I said about the Kyler Murray led Vikings, I do think that TJ Hawkinson takes a big step forward. was in the Titan I conversation two years ago. He was in the conversation for Titan II last year. Sorry, I should say pre-draft. ⁓ But this year, he's stepping into a situation where he's gonna be undervalued. They're gonna have him pretty low along the rankings, but. Nolan: Ooh. Keoni McKeague: This is a Minnesota Vikings team that's going to have a much better quarterback situation than they've had in the past couple of years. ⁓ You know, sans the, you know, one Sam Darnold year that, you know, obviously. Nolan: And Kyler also likes to throw to his tight ends. Keoni McKeague: Exactly. And this is a situation where he will get the run. He's a lot healthier than he was this last year. ⁓ We obviously saw that all panned out last year. I think that he's going to take a big step forward if I'm buying in on the Minnesota Vikings as an offensive hole. And then the final name that I have in here is Terrence Ferguson. ⁓ I don't think I could go through this list without mentioning one of the Rams tight ends, because I mean, quite literally. Nolan: I just don't because I don't know who they're gonna throw to. Davis Allen, him. I wanna say Terrence Ferguson, Davis Allen, and I might have it on the list somewhere. Keoni McKeague: Yeah. There's one more right in there. ⁓ I have his face in my head, but I can't think of his name. ⁓ Nolan: Hit me. Keoni McKeague: Do they not have one more? Isn't there one more guy? I'm thinking, yeah, Colby Parkinson. There you go. That was the guy I was thinking of. OK, Colby Parkinson was the one I was thinking of. ⁓ Nolan: Parkinson, Colby, there it is. I spoiler alert, not in any of the tiers we're gonna mention, currently this week or next week, but I did stack them back to back because I just wasn't sure which one was gonna- Keoni McKeague: Huh? Yeah, no, yeah, that's a good way to put it. mean, to me, having that same thought in mind, because I also was along the lines of like, well, they did use Coby Parkinson a lot. He was like a red zone guy for them, that kind of stuff. And then there's the fact that they do a bunch of trick plays where I do think that Terrence Ferguson is a guy that can be sort of the workhorse guy for this offense. To me, he's probably the best one that you guys have amongst that group. ⁓ Nolan: Mm-hmm. I agree, I agree. Keoni McKeague: As a receiving threat, he's wholeheartedly the best one you guys have. think ⁓ he's very, good. I mean, we saw him. Nolan: ⁓ yeah. definitely kept held on to some of his NFL Panini cards, you know what mean? Keoni McKeague: Yeah. ⁓ yeah. Nice, nice. ⁓ But he's also like a vertical threat, which is crazy from a tight end position. That's the other big thing about him is like you saw him being used as like a street guy, which was like pretty crazy considering. Yeah. And he was way out there, which is another weird, you know, tight end kind of thing that we can do nowadays because players are there's just ⁓ that athletic at the tight end position. But. Nolan: ⁓ yeah. He goes up there. Right when he turns, you see him ready to hold on. Keoni McKeague: Terrence Ferguson screams a guy that can have a breakout year. Who knows if that happens, but I put him here because I believe in the upside swing if he's available to me. Like if I'm looking at some of the guys after this, better yet, I'll say if this is where I'm at with my tight end one, you know what mean? Yeesh, hopefully I've already picked the tight end by this point and then these are my second tight ends. yeah, I really do like Terrence Ferguson in this tier. ⁓ Anyway, I think that will do it for this week's podcast the tier three conversation We will have tier four and five following the next couple of weeks like I said we're probably gonna be pre recording these because Nolan will be on vacation during that time, but you know we want to get all of the tier rankings out to you while we can hopefully no big news drops between now and when those release because I don't think there will be. mean, like, Aja Brown could get traded. But we've kind of already mentioned him as being like a guy that could move up in the tier. I will say I didn't have him in that tier. And I didn't even really throw his name out there, nor did I mention any of the other guys. But I am firmly on that, like, it's going to matter where he lands situation. Because if it's the Eagles, I am fading both of those dudes. Because I do not want any of those guys on my team. But ⁓ yeah, anyway. Yeah. Nolan: Go up, yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Keoni McKeague: I think that'll do it. Nolan, do you have anything you want to share for the people at home before we bounce on out of this one? Nolan: No? Keoni McKeague: Right on, right on. Hold on, sorry. Let me just get to the, I had to close out everything on the side to get to the point where we can say it's been a pleasure. It's been a joy from all of us here at Poinsettia. Nolan: He he. Good vibes and love, everybody. Keoni McKeague: Bang, bang.
