Next is T Higgins. And it's funny too, because you're right. We are prisoners of the moment.
00:09
It seems like culturally with things, but yet at the same time, the same fantasy football
00:13
community that was been, I don't know, chase Josh Gordon's one good season for what seemed
00:17
like a decade after. So I can't look at those two things and understand them. How can we
00:23
be down on a guy and then chase a guy who was good once, basically, I just don't understand
00:29
it from years and years and years T Higgins I'm chasing this year. Why? Because he plays
00:33
in a great offensive ecosystem. He has a quarterback, a coach. I believe in offensive line continues
00:38
to make some improvements, which is good. But again, this is a player two years in a
00:41
row back to back thousand yard receiving seasons, a 74 receptions back-to-back years.
00:48
The exact number had six touchdowns, seven touchdowns in 21 and 22 last year down year
00:54
only played 12 games, 42 catches for six 56 and five touchdowns. So what T Higgins
01:00
is no good at football either. Now he is wide receiver 29. Again, this was a guy last year
01:05
was wide receiver, 13, 14 on most people's boards. He was a one a wide receiver about
01:10
as steady as it gets. You could set and forget T Higgins and you were going to get a thousand
01:14
yards and seven touchdowns, right? As rain. And now you're telling me he is a wide receiver
01:20
three, bro. You gotta be kidding me here. This makes no sense to me. Go ahead.
01:30
You think field situation has anything to do with, with the T Higgins misnomer, if you
01:36
will. Maybe it's uncertainty of, okay, what are they going to do? Are they going to move
01:40
on from him? Or are they, I mean, he is looking for the big contract. Could there be holdout
01:44
situations? That's the only thing that you could think of at this point is maybe it's
01:48
just more of a concern with the picture of, is he just going to show up there and play?
01:53
We'll see these guys eventually show up and play. And I understand that he drafted Jermaine
01:58
Burton and I liked Burton a lot as a wide receiver, but he's still a rookie. So although
02:01
he's exciting, it's T Higgins that I'm still excited about. Another guy too, is Terry McLaurin
02:06
who has played with 12 different quarterbacks in his career. None of which have been as
02:11
good potentially as Jaden Daniels. And now Terry McLaurin folks just want to say this
02:16
is going at wide receiver. Get this 32 ADP of 60. Now Terry McLaurin is a very talented
02:23
player who has made the most of some awful quarterback situations. And I mean awful with
02:28
a capital a and throughout all those awful situations, Matt, he has had one, two, three,
02:34
four straight years of a thousand yard receiving seasons for with the crappiest quarterback
02:41
play you could ask for.
02:42
And he still manages to find about five touchdowns. Now I'm not saying all of a sudden it's going
02:47
to be a prolific passing game here, but Jane Daniels is going to move the chains and he's
02:49
going to give this offense a little bit more opportunity. And the Washington commanders
02:54
are an interesting spot here. New coaching staff, new quarterback, a lot of new stuff.
02:58
Sometimes it takes new, a little bit of time to gel. There's a lot more talent on this
03:02
roster to Jaden Daniels, Alston Eckler gets brought in, right? Brian Robinson looks like
03:06
a pretty good young back. I think this is another team that could really outperform
03:09
as the season goes on and you want to pay attention to, but this one again, to me, Tara
03:14
McLaurin at wide receiver 32, he is not a wide receipt. So wide receiver three, wide
03:19
receiver threes don't have annual seasons of a thousand yards and touchdowns are tough
03:23
year to year to gauge. But this is another player here who is in a situation now for
03:28
the first time to truly have a breakout year potentially. And I think Jaden Daniels is
03:33
capable of giving that to him as early as his rookie season. I think the talent of Daniels
03:37
is that good.
