Contract Year Receivers (and one tight end)

several shows. Matt Harrison. Hello, Matt. It's May. That means it's my month at the Matt the month of May, Matt May. From Matt my my phone auto correcx my own name. May. It takes time. It takes phones way too long to learn all of your special words, you know the things. If you're Matt with one T, that's a big problem. I never, ever, ever, apple need to talk about f I R trees for trees. Never. If you ever see f I R, I always mean f O R every single time. I don't use the word

ducking a lot. Never. I'm never ducking. Yes, like I I duck occasionally, but I never talked about ducking in that tense. No, you know, I've I've thought this many times that somebody if Apple would allow it that sold a naughty word, you know, injector into your dictionary. So all it did was inject all the naughty words in so that you wouldn't autocrrect them. How much I would pay real money for that, But I'm sure Apple would

never let that happen. A couple of bucks here and there, Sure you'd you'd make two bucks on every Devian in America that speaks English. And that's most of us anyway. Speaking of deviants, we've got a variety of them. In that way, it is mostly wide receivers and one tight end. Today we're talking in a follow up from last week, we're talking about the dynasty relevant players in the contract

year uh catchers, yes, yes, of a contract year. Pass catchers from tight ends, wide receivers from a dynasty orientation. And so these are the guys in the last year year deal. We'll talk about each guy if we think they're gonna stay, if they don't stay, or do stay, Who that helps, who that hurts, the situation surrounding all of it. Just like last week, we we we did with the runners. This week we will do it with everybody else. So that is the plan of action, and

we begin with this. Do you do you want to start with the players or do you want to start with the teams that are eligible? To start with the teams, because then I think that people in the back of their mind while we're talking about some of these players can go, oh, maybe this player could end up on this team. And here are the top ten teams that I found that could need a wide receiver tight end next year and have the cap space to do it.

All of these teams have at least fifty million in cap space next year and feasibly could use a pass catch. Got it? H The Colts are number one, and and I should note we're going to talk about a lot of these teams with these players coming up, because a lot of their high priced players are coming off, like t Y Hilton is an example who will touch we'll touch on a little later. H the Chargers, the Jaguars are number three, Washington number four, New England number five,

since the number six, Baltimore number seven. The Jets, Dolphins, and Lions are eight, nine, and ten. Okay, so those are your top ten teams that are potential buyers next off season. Exactly when these players would presumably get to market, they have the cap space, and they have a need at the past catching position. Now, the most fascinating name out of all of the players are going to talk about is a tight end. Yeah, and it's George Kittle, and it's the only one's the only right. It seems

unfathomable that the Niners would let him go. I don't think he will. The Ninders are fifteenth and cap space, I believe, and they've got about fifty little under five million dollars depending on who you look at. Um, you know, the other receivers are at least right now, they feel somewhat unsettled with Deebo Samuel and Brendan Brandon Ayu who we think is gonna be really good? You know, we don't know yet. So what are your thoughts on Kittle as a potential as the potential of him leaving and um,

hello again, it seems unlikely to me. I don't think it's very likely that he leaves. Ross Dwelly is the only backup that's really notable behind him, and he's a restricted free agent next season. Um, And I think Kittle is really a huge part of the way that Kyle Shanahan's offense is functioning. Remember this team, We'll spend money on guys who fit that offense. Kyle use Check is getting paid five million dollars this year to play fullback

in the NFL. That's unheard of. And by the way, Kyle use Check, he's a free agent after this year too, So that opens up a little bit of space for George Kittle. I I don't think that they can let him go um so from a fantasy's perspective, I don't really foresee this as a buy or sells that you tion, it's just a hold. So it's kind of a boring way to start this conversation. But if Kittle ends up

somewhere else, it can't be better than this situation. Right on your dynasty cheat sheet, who do you have higher? For dynasty leagues ranked? Uh? For well for dynast leagues, which tight end you have hired? Do you have Kittle or do you have Kelsey higher? I have a Kittle higher? You have Kittle higher? Kelsey is I think in his aged thirty season this year, so that bumps him down

just a little bit. So that means there's got to be what four or five years differential, But the the difference in quarterbacking would almost would make up for at least a good chunk of that. Hey, both of them had Super Bowl quarterbacks this year. There's and you know me, I'm not gonna I'm not fighting Jimmy Garoppolo. Alright, let's turn our attention to wide receivers, where I think there's

this thing gets a little bit more interesting. Chris Godwin coming off a monster season last year with a Buccaneers Bucks have plenty of cap space, and so you know, they if they decide they want to keep them, they can, um, but they're also gonna have to you know, they've got other things to juggle, including potentially Rob Gronkowski, Tom Brady. You know, there's there's a lot of things up in

the air there too. So, by the way, this rookie draft that happened, uh what three years ago, now it must have been a great rookie draft because it's Kittle, Godwin, Juju Smith, Schuster, Kenny Golladay, and Cooper cup who are all leaving their rookie deals this year. Um. So he's making two point three million this year. The Bucks have fifty seven million in estimated cap space. That's that's all right, um, Tyler Johnson is a fifth rounder that those of us

in Minnesota. No. Um, he's on roster through three. Justin Watson is signed through one. He's kind of the third wide receiver in the mix there now. Um, But there's a lot of question marks here. Will Tom Brady return in one? Can they afford Chris Godwin because they have a lot of work that they need on the defense to make that championship caliber team. They already have Mike Evans signed for four more years, including this one, but

his cap hit becomes extremely palatable after this year. So could the Bucks elect to trade Mike Evans, take a four million dollar cap hit and then sign Chris Godwin. Boy, I can't, I can't see it. I mean, if if he if he's got a team friendly contract, why would you trade Mike evanc Evans doesn't have a team friendly contract. His cap hit becomes so it could be easy to ship him off and sign Godwin and get something in return, rather than let Godwin hit free agency and get really

nothing back. Now, the reason to sell on Chris Godwin right now, in my mind is all right, Tom Brady's his quarterback this year, What about next year or the year after that? Well, the reason to sell on Godwin right now is according to Fantasy Pros Dynasty Composite rankings, he's the number ten overall player in dynasty leagues right now and he's the number five wide receiver. He's never gonna get higher than that. Like this is this is

peak value for Chris Godwin, and rightly so. But if you are a smart fantasy player, you sell when it's at that peak point. And this is the peak point right now, so it would be really hard to do so, but this is the time you sell Chris Godwin. Like everything in this world, the people that get ahead are the ones that are buying when everybody else is selling, and selling when everyone else is buying. You know, those the people that have the stones to do that, and

nobody's trying to. Nobody's selling Chris Godwin right now because the value so high and there's so much excitement over Brady and we're not saying that he's gonna have a bad season or a bad career or anything like that. It's just like you could get a lot, You could get a ton for him right now if you all right, So, let me let me play this out a minute. If if I've got Chris Godwin, and I want the third pick in this draft? Are you taking that deal? Um?

Which which side am I getting? You're getting Godwin, I'm getting asking. I'm asking for you. You've got the third pick overall, and I'm off you Godwin for pick three. I would take Godwin in that pick two. I mean, yeah, I I think I'd still take Godwin over any of the rookie picks. I would take him over any of them. It makes it makes it closer and closer and closer you get to one. It's and it's not. It's really because there isn't a standout number one guy this year.

There isn't an Ezekiel Elliott for example, who you know? It was just such an obvious, no brainer number one pick in a rookie draft. It's not even obviously who the first pick is in a rookie draft this year. It's not a Zeke or sake K one year. Right, It's not a sake one here either, Right. Okay, So let's let's so, Chris Godwin, we agree that you should

test the water and see what you can get for Godwin. Yeah, Juju Smith Schuster is a guy that I'm taking a strong stand against this year, which sounds obvious now after last year, check right, But I'm seeing places have him ranked twelve fifteen. I think there are a lot of people that think he's gonna have the bounce back season. I don't. He comes in and and the Steelers are in real trouble in cap space, Yeah they really are. Um they Smith Schuster is only making one point three

million this year. Uh. The Steelers have twenty two million and estimated cap space that's twenty eight in the league, so their bottom five UM and they have a lot of capital in the wide receiver position. James Washington was a second round pick. He's signed through Deonte Johnson, a third rounder through Chase Claypool, also a second rounder through three. Just kind of like the running backs, which we discussed on last week's episode, in the third or fourth round,

they take a running back every year. In the second or third round, they take a wide receiver every year. Um, there's a lot of question marks who's the quarterback in Pittsburgh after Big Ben because this could be his last year And we we touched on this, I believe last week, And if it wasn't last week, it must have been the week before. There's this could be the for Big

Ben this season. We don't we don't know how good Ben Roethlisberger is right now because we don't have a data point on him for the last year and a half. You know, all we got was one game out of out of Ben last year. What if he what if he would have been bad last year, which is, you know, at his age is a real step. He's under his seventeenth year. Seventeen year for Ben Roethlisberger. The end might already be here in twenty might be here right now.

We just don't make draft class was Eli Manning and he retired, He retired, and Philip Rivers is also that draft class. So you know, I know, you know, the Steelers don't have the cap space to sign him. There's already rumors um coming out of Pittsburgh managements saying that it's his last year in Pittsburgh. Um. The injuries and the fact that the situation in one have have really pushed his value down make him kind of an interesting speculative by low for me because I think the value

has really fallen. And if you find you gotta find the right dynasty owner. If you have a dynasty owner in your league who's like, all right, I'm sick of him. I'm ready to give up on this guy. That's the time you attack on Juju. But if you're if if it's one of those dynasty owners who's reading the positives and going, well, he's a top twelve wide receiver in dynasty leagues, Nope, not buying him at that level right now. I I think the reason to buy Juju is not

for this year. It's it's one with the hope that he's somewhere else better suited for him. I think it was a most stable quarterback than whatever Pittsburgh is going to have next um. And you know, but when we look at the buyer's list that you put together with teams, most of them have got a problem at quarterback. As it looks right now, Colts have a problem at quarterback. Chargers unknown, Jaguars probably unknown, Unknown, don't talk about the

Mississippi mustache that way. Washington problem, Patriots problem. Bengals aren't. I don't. I don't know that the Bengals are gonna be buying or not Ravens. I mean, the Skills just have a lot of open spots on that roster next year, which we'll get to in just a couple of minutes. Okay, So again I think I don't know the one is necessarily going to be better for Juju, but he could find himself in a better spot, and that should that would be the reason to think of him in Miami

with TWA. I like that idea. It would be kind of a fun spot. Yeah, Um, they could use a slot receiver. There we go. Let's go to Kenny Golladay, one of our favorite receivers. I if the IF Detroit lets him walk their fool. They've got the twelveth most caps space heading into this one. And is you've noted out in some past shows, their receivers are all on expiring deals this year. Yeah, Marvin Jones, Danny Amndola, Geronimo

Allison all expiring contracts right here. I think that they'll let those guys walk and then bring back Kenny Golliday quintest cifas the rookie from Wisconsin is their only wide receiver under contract. I don't think there's any way Golladay hits the market. Um. Although this might be a lame duck year for the staff in Detroit, Matt Patricia leads the Vegas odds for first coach fired. Oh, I didn't know that. Um. The Lions were rumored to be in

the quarterback market at pick three maybe for two. They did not take him, and I think that was a mistake. If only to be planning for succession to Matthew Stafford, Well, they don't plan for succession when a coaching staffs trying to keep their jobs this year, right, Um, so I think he's still a bilow. And if we get a new coaching staff that comes in and it's a clean sweep of maybe some of the bad habits in that front office, this could be an upgrade. Um. Is it

possible that Matthew Stafford retires though? Yes, that's a yes, it is. That's a thing that Lions players do. They do. Yeah, if you're a good Lions player who's just tired of getting beat up and losing, you leave. And that's that's what it's been. And you know, and with the injury, if Matthew Stafford has another injury like last year, I do believe he'll retire. Um. That's a great point. And it's a real area of concern because they don't have

they don't have their next quarterback lined up. They don't have anybody to throw to either. So Kenny Golladay could be staying for a hundred and eighty targets for the next five years. And are they from some awful backup or or whisper. I don't know. They might be in the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes. They could be if this Stafford thing plays out. You know, Stafford goes down to Week three with a season ending back into it's Belichick versus

Patricia trying to get into the case the most games. Yeah, it could be. So, all right, are we selling high on Kenny Golladay now because we you and I both just identified some real concerns for next year and beyond. Yeah, he's just good. He's just really good. And yeah, that's the problem. Talent wins out in this in this case. So if if there's trepidation by an owner in your league and they're like, I might not like this. I

think it's a by situation. But if you can get if you can get a dollar twenty five for a dollar on him, I'd sell him. Yeah. I get the feeling you can get a lot for Kenny Golladay right now, because I don't think most dynasty owners are savvy enough to look into that crystal ball very far beyond this year. Twitter poll yesterday, UM talking about Calvin Ridley, O'Dell Beckham, and Kenny Golladay pick two of the three, and the guy who one out as the top player who was

on most of those teams was Kenny Golladay. So you could probably trade Kenny Golladay for O'Dell or Ridley and something right now. So that's that's the way I think that you have to look at it. Man. Just so much of a receiver's capabilities are tied into whoever's throwing them the ball, and I just I we can't talk. We don't know who the Lion's quarterback is going to be next year. Let's move to Cooper cop one of my favorite players for this season. I've got him ranked

really highly. Uh he's his rookie deal is coming to an end, like all of these players, and the Rams are in a pretty good spot salary cap wise, not this year, but next year. This year they're in the toilet right now, they're completely but most uh cap space next year about fifty million dollars um worth. Noting that Bob Woods is under contract through uh. He will make around nine million next year and carries too big of a cap hit to be cut. Josh Reynolds is an

unrestricted free agent after this season. Van Jefferson was their second round pick and is locked in through I was a bit surprised that the Rams weren't in cap hell by the way is looking it up, Um, I couldn't find a team in the top twenty of available cap space where I think Cooper cups um production and value would increase. I think he's in a really good spot here, So I don't think that he's going to go up in value if he moves on, but he could go down.

So that's why it kind of makes him a cell high moment for me, because his value will stay the same if he's with the Rams, but it's got a better chance of going down if he hits the wrong spot, uh landing spot in in in in another place. But that also makes a speculative by low on Robert Woods, because if you remember two years ago when Cooper Cup got injured, Robert Woods moved into the slot, and Robert Woods had great production from the slot for those last

eight games, and where they put there does well. Yeah, so if they decide, well, we got Robert Woods under contract, and we're just gonna try to, you know, mix in some rookies here so we can keep the bulk of this team together. It might be Robert Woods manning the slot next year, and I think you get him at a pretty cheap level right now. Uh, that's the guy that I'd be speculatively buying low one right now. I think Cooper Cup's got a eighty or ninety percent chance

of staying. I think that you're probably right, yeah, And I think his values is I think what it is now. I don't know that you're gonna get any more or less for him going forward. So I think Cooper Cup just he's Cooper Cup. He's Cooper Cup. But but guys like inside, by the way, Cooper Cup is Coop a company. The kind of insight you can only get on this show. Fantasy Football Weekly. Matt, let's take a break. We're talking about the dynasty players in the last years of their deal.

Are you buying low selling high? What could these teams look like next year and beyond? Paul Charchi and Matt Harrison with you Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchi and Matt Harrison with you breaking down dynasty players in the last year their deals. Pass catchers,

specifically Matt. We did running backs last week. We encourage you to check out the podcast on that iTunes, i Heart radio, wherever you get your favorite podcast, you can find Fantasy Football Weekly all the running back discussion from last week. This week, it's the past catchers we've already broken down, George Kittle, Chris Godwin, Juju Smith, Schuster, Kenny Gollady, Cooper Cup. Let's turn our attention to another five or so guys, beginning with Keenan Allen and another pretty unsettled

quarterback position depending on how you feel about Jordan Law. Yeah. I want to note that the first five guys that we just talked about, they all haven't made their money yet. The next five guys we're gonna talk about, they've made some. Keenan Allen making ten and a half million this season, he'll be twenty nine next year in season. For a guy with that beard, I always think he's about fifty two years old. You know, the bald head, the long the log, scruffy beard. I'm like, man, he looks like

an old guy. Already. Let's get him together with Ryan Fitzpatrick. You can't beat the student. Uh. The Chargers have one hundred and two million dollars in cap space next year. That's the second um. They already picked up the fifth year option on Mike Williams for next season. That means he's going to make fifteen point six million next year. He's done nothing, nothing to earn that. Yet they must

they must know something we don't know. Well, here's what the Chargers know, and here's what we know about the Chargers. They're strangely loyal. Two players who don't make a lot of noise. Melvin Gordon make made a lot of noise. They let him go. Philip Rivers started making a little bit of noise at the tail end of last year. They let him go. But they're signing Mike Williams to a fifty million dollar deal and k J. Hill and Joe Reid are the only guys on on the depth chart.

Beyond that, Keenan Allen is gonna probably stay there. They're gonna probably make him a Charger for life. Um, if he has any vibe with Justin Herbert at all, I think it's a no brainer that they signed him to his final contract and he can Larry Fitzgerald his way out of the Chargers organization. I said Jordan lod Love earlier, it should have been justin Herbert of course. Um So for for Herbert, lots of question marks on, you know, on what his development might look like when he's gonna start.

Some people think that much like the Browns a couple of years ago with Baker Mayfield and ty Tyrod Taylor, that they'll actually start Tyrod Taylor for at least a while. We don't know what that development is gonna look like, but presumably Herbert's gonna be at least okay, and by next year, hopefully he will be a competent star. Is Keenan Allen one of those guys that people are just forever,

but he keeps putting up numbers every year. You know, the numbers are good, they're not great, But I think there is there is some real on we with Keenan Ellen, somewhat on we boredom with Keenan Allen. That drives down it just it drives down his value. Right now for this year, I believe he's wide receiver twenty five For me, Yeah, I believe that's where I've got, and that's a redraft

that's low. He finished eleventh last year, I know, but it's all the quarterback, you know, it's it's all the quarterback changes um and you know, not knowing what is he gonna get spirals his direction. I realized that Philip Rivers was not very good last year. But and I'm probably a little more sour on him than I should be. Yeah, he's had pretty much each of the last town so he's bankable. He is bankable. But you're right, he's boring.

Keenan Allen's he's totally boring. Let's go to a J. Green me off a lost season last year, and there's plenty of other guys right now to catch passes around it, but really only Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins after that. Yeah, m four million dollars in estimated cap space, sixth most Green obviously on the franchise tag seventeen point eight million this year. I'm a little surprised they gave him the

franchise tag after what happened last year. Who says no to eighteen million dollars when you didn't play a snap but not on on a on an ankle injury, not a broken ankle, a and a sprained ankle, and you didn't play a a down all the year. And it was weird last year because AJ Greenwood seemed upset about

many times getting getting injured. I think he wanted to be traded last year and then they're like, yeah, we know you didn't play last year, but we'll give you eighteen million dollars and he's like, well, that's right, it's not stupid. So um, like you said, Tyler boyd under contract through three, which we got right this week, Thank you, Tee. Higgins drafted in the second round John Ross. His fifth year option was declined, so he'll hit free agency after

this year. Um, if A J green is Joe Burrows guy, I think I think Higgins is gonna be as guy. We'll see, well, let's see what happened long this year. But if he's his guy, I think that the Bengals are another one of those loyal franchises that that will bring you back and we'll bring you back at a at a salary that uh that works. So um. We did talk about Joe Mixon, who also needs a new contract. I think if Mixon ends up hitting free agency. I think A J. Green will stay, no no questions about it.

I think that they'll have the money to it, they'll just do it. Running Backs just don't don't know. They just don't make as much money and they aren't discoveted in free agency. Um So, I think that offense is going to be better this year. Remember they get first round pick from teen Jonah Williams back from injury to help anchor that line. How that helps? Um So? I think he's a buy low for this year. But you can't. It's it's so low, it's historically low on AJ. But

here's the deal. I think you buy low, and I think that you sell as soon as you can. Okay, end of the season. End of the season, get eight games in and have a J. Green have a three touchdown game. That's the moment you sell. Paul Charchi and Matt Harrison with you, Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchi and Matt Harrison with you.

The tempting part on A J. Green is if he feels super old right now, right the same ages Julio Sat Marture, same draft um famously, they if he if he's still got three good more years in him and Joe Burrow is everything we think he's gonna be. Man, it's such a good time to buy and hold him for three years. But I don't know that any of that is true. So we'll see. Let's move on to Alan Robinson. Um, Chicago paid him a bunch of money to come over three years ago. He's in the last

year of his deal. Uh, fifteen million this year. He'll be twenty eight years old during the season. He's pretty young still, because you're how long I've been talking about Allen Robinson. Well, I mean he's one year younger than Keenan Allen and you called him the old Um. So the Bears have twenty four million in estimated cap space. That's not good. That's twenty six in the league. Um. Anthony Miller is the only wide receiver under contract really

worth mentioning. Uh. He was the second rounder last year. But get this, Allen Robinson's career quarterbacks, Oh, they're bad. Blake Bortles, Chad Henny, Mitchell Trubisky, and Chase Daniel are the players he's caught passes from in his career. It's and now we're gonna add Nick Foles to that, and Nick Foles is probably by a lot. Yeah, outside of his a c L season, he's had over a hundred and fifty targets and three of his five healthy seasons. And the Bears have a coaching staff that could be

on the bubble as well. If the Bears go, if they don't make the playoffs again, if it's something a lot like last year, it's over well, I think that they might be looking at a complete tear down of that franchise. Front office to um Khalil Mack might be on the market next year. They might be on the market, jettison players left and right. So and I don't think it'd be very likely that Allen Robinson signs in Chicago, which means there's an upgrade coming for him anywhere else.

Can't anybody, I think that's right. Anywhere else he could go. And by the way, Allen Robinson is really good, Yeah, and I think his numbers do improve with fulls. I think this is your last by low opportunity on Allen Robinson, which is why in our Empire League, I tried to buy him off of you. You you turn him down, turn down the trade right, I wouldn't have made you, well, I should, I should, I won't. I will not even tell people what you wanted to what you tried to

offer me. For Travis Kelsey, I'll tell Allen Robinson it was a first round pick, a second round pick, and Michael Gallop. He was a wide receiver that people like and he's a huge ceedee. Lamb just destroyed him. Probably didn't help. See. I love Travis Kelsey. Kelsey for me from a dynasty and empire standpoint, he's just foundational. So you know what's great about Travis Kelsey. He's older than keenan guy in the NFL, but he was a late bloomer because he didn't like a lot of tight ends.

He got very little action in his first few years, so I don't think he's a guy with a lot of a lot of wear on the tires either way. By Allen Robinson now before the season begins, and I think that you'll be happy about that. Will Fuller is next up. The Texans obviously lost Uma DeAndre Hopkins, gained back Brandon Cooks, but they also have Kenny Stills and Randall cop So the Texans have twelve million dollars in estimated cap space next year. That's terrible of any team

that's not negative next year already. And by the way, they're paying thirty one million dollars this year to their top four wide receivers. Randall Cobb, who has signed this signing that three year deal. He's got it out after year two, but he's stuck on roster and next year Randall Cobb is gonna make ten point six million dollars. Unbelievable. Um, Brandon Cooks will make eight million this year. He has an additional three years on his contract, but could be

cut for no penalty after this season. DAMA I might have to do. He will be cut next year, which, by the way, it's not good for Brandon Cooks. As a side note, we should spend a second on him. Yeah, because DeShawn Watson's the guy you want to you want to invest in. De Shawn Watson to Brandon Brandon Cooks. Cooks gets cut next year, it could be Dwayne Haskins to to Brandon Cooks, Cooks will be on his like

seventh teams that's right in six years. Um. Kenny Stills is making seven million this year and his contract expires this season two. I don't think the Texans can afford any of these guys, meaning Randall Cob might be your go to on the Houston Texans next year. And can you imagine Will Fuller and Washington or Jacksonville or New England. Yeah,

it's gonna be bad. He's definitely a cell high candidate right now, especially if he has one of those will Fuller games and that Yeah, I'm not selling today in May. I'm selling on October seven, the monday after he goes berserk one weekend, because you know he will, and then the following weekend he'll have a hamstring injury that too. And but people know this about will Fuller. That's secrets. There are no secrets on will Fuller, right, that's everybody knows.

It might not be sell high, it just might be sell yeah, period, just sell get out all right. Last guy, t Y Hilton, a player I think people are two down on after everything that went wrong last year. He got hurt. Jacoby percent isn't good. You know, so many problems with him. They get Philip Rivers now, who will bring back if nothing else, competency add to the quarterback position.

Chargers fans might argue, but company compared to Jacoby percon I think earlier in this podcast, you just said Philip Rivers wasn't very good. He wasn't very good last year, but I think he'll be far better this year. Behind that offensive line. Here you have one of the classically immobile quarterbacks playing by the best offensive line in football. I think Rivers just set on a nice little bounce back season coming, and I think t Y Hilton is going to be a big part of it, in part

because Michael Pittman's a rookie. Paris Campbell's in his second year but missed half of last year with that hand injury. Just there's so much more experience and productivity with t Y Hilton than everybody else. Yeah, and uh, Hilton's entering his age thirty season this year. He's making fourteen and a half million. Uh. The Colts, however, have the most

salary cap space available next year at million. They have managed their cap so incredibly well in Indy, and I think are just waiting for the time to pounce and spend all that money and go for a title. It might not be with Philip Rivers, and it might not be with t Y Hilton on the team either. Um Paris Campbell was a second round pick. He's signed through the two season. One of my favorite sleeper deep sleepers for next year, Paris Campbell and then Michael Pittman was

also a second round pick. He's signed through Zach Pascal. He'll be a restricted free agent after this year, the last year he's not a fact. If they resigned Hilton, it'll be at a hometown discount. He won't be making fourteen and a half million. And in his career, well, it depends on what this year, what he does this year, but you're right, I don't think he will either at this stage of his career. And if we're worried about Ben Roethlisberger, we gotta be worried about Philip Rivers because

is he going to be around next year? Who will be? Who will the Colts have a quarterback? So while you're buying t Y Hilton, well, for this year, i'm buying for I'm buying him. I don't know about beyond that. I'm selling t Y Hilton right now out even for I know, but Christian Peterson always said it's better to get out a year too early than a year too late. He's been it's been saying that about Adrian Peterson for

ten years now. He got out a long time he did, so I think, uh, I think that I would probably try to get out on t Y Hilton while he does have some value, especially if he has a couple of good games this season, and I think you will, I really do. Yeah. And I don't think it's a talent thing. I just think it's there's too many question marks there. If people want to get your dynasty rankings, what should they do? Go find me on Twitter at Explosive Output and my pinned tweet has a link to

all my dynasty rankings. Uh. The trade value charts, as they're called. I have one for super flex and one four single quarterback leagues, and they're both available for a small nominal fee for a guy who's you know, making a few bucks here and there in the fantasy world. Yeah, it's what I like best about your trade your your

dynasty trade value charts. It also includes all the draft picks, and you know that's that's awfully important this time of year to trade this guy for the fifth pick in the first round or the fifth pick in the second round or whatever. Well, now we have all the names to the draft selection, so we know that Clyde Edwards Hilaire because the trade value check, so you can you can kind of make those assessments as you go as well.

Absolutely great work. Will be back next week, I think, But I don't know for sure, but I think next week's topic is going to be pick number one. Do you have to take Christian McCaffrey. I don't know that you have to. You know, there's there's a scenario there there can we sever there are several other players that that you could put into that spot, so it might really turn into the five, the top five, you know,

one through five. But um, I'm fascinated by people with the stones to take anybody other than the obvious consents this number one guy, and they almost never repeat, and so there's you know, there's there's there are people out there. They're gonna have the guts to do it and want to think outside the box and they're just not going to replay last year and assume it it's all going to be perfect. We'll see how that goes. We'll see I'm excited already. Yeah, I love it. We'll talk to
