Let's go to Washington here and have a conversation.
00:05
We opened this hour talking about Jehan Dotson going to the Eagles.
00:08
So now, last name aside, Luke McCaffrey kind of rises up boards.
00:14
Is it helium?
00:15
Is it overinflated or is it justified?
00:17
Well, I can't put the last name aside because I think that's a big part of why this is.
00:23
If his name was, you know, Luke Stryker, I mean, which is a cool name, don't get me wrong.
00:28
I'm pretty sure I saw that guy wrestle on the Indies, Luke Stryker.
00:31
But yeah, like, I think because his last name is McCaffrey, everyone gets a little excited
00:36
and they should.
00:37
Like, I think in a dynasty league, Luke McCaffrey is actually a really interesting piece.
00:40
I tried to get him in the fourth round of my dynasty draft, but again, fourth round
00:44
of a dynasty draft.
00:46
And if you're listening and to what, you know, Dan Quinn saying, if you're reading the tea
00:50
leaves here, it doesn't seem like they're all saying, oh yeah, he's worked his way into
00:55
as the number two or number three wide receiver.
00:57
Yet all of a sudden in this weekend, I've seen him just skyrocket of draft boards because
01:02
of the last name and because people are excited about him, but it looks more like Deami Brown
01:06
or maybe some other combination of a couple other guys are going to be the two and a three
01:10
here at least temporarily, unless Washington pulls off a deal.
01:13
So in a deeper league, in a 14 team league, sure.
01:16
I get drafting Luke McCaffrey, but I'm not drafting him over Josh Palmer.
01:20
I mean, I'm not taking him over, you know, guys like Kobe Meyers, who's wide receiver
01:25
54 right now, Luke McCaffrey, like I said, it's starting to fly up draft boards into
01:29
that conversation.
01:31
And I'd much rather have Darnell Mooney, Jalen McMillan.
01:34
Those are wide receivers right now that are set up for workloads.
01:38
Darnell Mooney is the number two wide receiver on the Falcons.
01:41
Jalen McMillan is a third wide receiver on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
01:44
I'm not sure what Luke McCaffrey is right now, but right now, right now he's being overdrafted.
