00:00
Let's touch on some tight ends for next year, a little of this or that.
00:03
Let's take a look at George Kittle versus Trey McBride.
00:06
I don't think that the numbers tell the story at all this season.
00:10
I could make the case, George, that the most unlucky player in fantasy football season
00:16
was Trey McBride.
00:17
I mean, this is the biggest slam dunk for me of all, given the fact that the points
00:21
are so close.
00:22
I'm a George Kittle guy, okay?
00:24
He's on my team.
00:25
He'll be back on my team next year, on my Dynasty League team, but this is a slam dunk
00:29
for me.
00:30
McBride should have had at least four or five touchdowns this season.
00:33
He ended up getting, what did he get, one or two at the end of the year?
00:36
One at the end of the season.
00:37
Come on.
00:38
Give me the guy on the right.
00:39
Not even close.
00:40
Well, technically, he had three.
00:42
He had one receiving touchdown.
00:44
He had one bounce off his head last week, because Kyle O'Murray threw it too soon.
00:49
I'm with you.
00:50
All right, McBride.
00:51
And Kale has had a great year, and I'm sure he'll be a top six, top seven tight end next
00:54
year as well here.
00:55
I don't know if McBride has the upside here of being, maybe only Brock Bowers beats him
01:00
next year.
01:01
So, give me McBride.
01:02
Yeah, I was going to say, I think he's the second best tight end in fantasy.
01:05
I was trying to think, like, who could potentially be ahead of him?
01:09
But it's those three.
01:10
Can we Dalton Kincaid?
01:11
No.
01:12
Definitely no.
01:13
Not your guy.
01:14
Dalton Kincaid.
01:15
All right, Sam LaPorta.
01:16
Meanwhile, this is another tight end I would bet on.
01:18
I would bet on him next season.
01:20
I mean, he had a really down year just because the Lions offense sort of expanded outward
01:26
and not inward, and LaPorta got a lot less targets.
01:30
Travis Kelsey keeps doing it.
01:31
He's not the number one tight end in fantasy, or number two, or maybe even number three.
01:35
I think next year will be the lowest, George, that he gets drafted ever in fantasy.
01:40
My guess is probably, what would you say, like fifth round, sixth round next year for
01:43
Kelsey?
01:44
195 points.
01:45
LaPorta 161.
01:46
This is probably closer than I'm making it out to be, I'm going to guess.
01:52
I'll want your opinion on that one.
01:56
I am pretty much with, I mean, the first thing I thought was fifth round.
01:58
Right?
01:59
That's the first thing that came to my head, fifth round, when you started going through
02:02
that.
02:03
So, yeah.
02:04
I think that's where he's going to be.
02:05
Once again, still a solid tight end, but it's no longer, oh, should we take Kelsey to round
02:09
one because he has such a big advantage?
02:11
No, he's not that guy anymore.
02:12
You certainly want Bowers over him.
02:14
We already discussed you want McBride over him.
02:16
I think he's in the argument after that.
02:18
All right.
02:19
LaPorta, we're bringing up here, who's very good here.
02:22
You mentioned earlier, though, no Ben Johnson.
02:23
I do expect Ben Johnson to get a head coaching job.
02:25
You probably could have got one last year if you wanted.
02:28
Does he feel the time is right to leave Detroit for that head coaching job?
02:31
Is there the right job out there for him?
02:35
Only he can answer that question, truly, here.
02:37
So, serving the mishmash now.
02:39
I'm no longer looking to get Kelsey.
02:41
He's another year older again.
02:43
That being said, I said that this year.
02:45
He's had a pretty solid season here.
02:47
Kelsey LaPorta, I'm going to go Kelsey.
02:49
I'll give it to the old guy here.
02:50
I didn't give it off to Derek Camry, but I'll give it to the old guy in Kelsey here.
02:54
I'll tell you it's all proofs that he can't do it.
02:56
He's just too good.
02:57
And then the receiving course should be better next year.
02:59
So, maybe all the attention is not paid to him as well, but I do love LaPorta also.
03:03
By the way, Bowers, real quick, I'm going to guess not a first round pick in fantasy.
03:09
Will he be a second round pick towards next year?
03:10
Is that a slam dunk that Bowers is a second round pick?
03:15
New quarterback next year, right?
03:16
It's not going to be Minshew, it's not going to be O'Connell.
03:19
It's not going to be Riddick.
03:20
It could be.
03:20
It better be.
03:21
It could be a new coach too, right?
03:23
I think everything's gone now.
03:26
I mean, I was saying round three in my head.
03:29
You know, it could be top of round three.
03:30
So, we can talk about four or five.
03:32
Me personally, he's not good enough.
03:35
Not as I've seen.
03:36
Not with the offense.
03:38
For me to give him a second round pick.
03:39
No, I'm going to need that top wide receiver, top running back for my team.
03:42
So, I'm going to say no, but I'm not knocking anybody who does it.
