Mike Clay is the man! Another good video for you guys but, really nice to see Mike beyond ESPN. Mike just does so much for all of us fantasy football folks. We are just smarter and more aware if we actually "listen" to what he is explaining about the determinations/projections. My gut feelings and fan funk do not lead me as far astray when I am listening to Mike. Y'all take care and enjoy!

[@scottfletcher1956]

I just came from another FF channel 5 mins ago to this video. In my head, while I was watching the other channel, I kept thinking over and over that the analysis was poor. The better analysis imo takes an advanced look at the bigger picture, not just stats from 23’ and shallow tuning from the draft and pre season. I feel like I get more here. I miss the analytics from this channel when I go elsewhere. It’s been 4 years now, I’m gonna make this channel my hub. Thx guys.

[@fireguy615]

Mike Clay is the Tim Legler of fantasy

[@orlandowhite5386]

Good analogy

[@JackNadeau]

If you’re in the comments whining for timestamps, this channel just isn’t for you. The bread and butter of Hayden and Josh is in-depth film and data analysis, which requires actual discussion. If you want quick lists, there are thousands of 20-year-olds posting the shallow content you’re looking for claiming to be FF experts because they won a home league.

[@JS-bn4vx]

I got engram at pick 100 in my first draft. And that’s with several tight ends taken. I took Laporta early and didn’t even want engram but at that point, my hands were tied. Schultz and Ferguson were both taken before engram

[@TeKnoVKNG23]

The Kyren hate has been odd from so many fantasy "experts" this season. Last year it was "He's too small" to survive the season and now it's still his size and the impact Corum might have on his workload. Even if Corum comes in and takes some carries, the Rams offense is very similar to Detroit and there's plenty of volume to support 2 RBs there. I ran Monty and Gibbs last season on my way to winning my league so it can certainly work even if there's competition in the backfield.

[@slickrick8046]

Gibbs and Monty are two completely different backs with different skill sets. Plus Gibbs is a 1st round pedigree back. What’s going on with Kyren is the same thing that happened last year with ETN when the Jaguars drafted a backup in Tank Bigsby. The fantasy world went crazy and pushed ETN’s ADP down. And we saw how that worked out.

[@trevoraugustus2249]

I like the Courtland Sutton pick. Bo Nix looked very functional in his first preseason game last night.

[@drewgg1392]

Appreciate the alpha. This is my 2nd year doing best ball tourneys

[@johnhastings1874]

[@tonyfuller14]

Not to split hairs or anything but you guys missed a really big point on Sutton. Jerry Juedy went to Cleveland so a lot of those contested “number 1” target shares balls, are gonna go the way of Sutton, without Juedy there 👍🏻 love the video, and thank you guys for the insights and information!

[@FedorMachida]

Roninson Jr. is a good pick. Eck will get hurt for sure. I think Robinson will get around 800-850 yards rushing, 500 passing and 9 TD's

[@consciousmachine413]

Hey bot, he ain't passing for shit. Maybe one completion.

[@FedorMachida]

@@consciousmachine413 passing/receiving yards. Geez. have some common sense. He, obviously, isn't passing for 500 yards, lolol Anyhow, a lot of people will pass on him in the draft, but if he is available, I will certainly take him.

[@baddonkey9394]

Glad I saw this in time

[@Corion2121]

Is Mike Clay on tour?

[@FedorMachida]

Jake Browning is a good handcuff, in the last few rounds. Burrow will probably get hurt again, imo He won't be able to run much and will have a lot of interceptions. Courtland Sutton always disappoints, every year. No way, I am taking him, lol

[@matthewdennis1739]

Depends...if you're drafting a bunch of teams in Underdog you want to take Burrow because the injury risk is baked in and it's worth the upside shot. In my redraft leagues I'd be a little more hesitant.

[@Thoughtpologetics]

@@matthewdennis1739 for me… either way I’m staying away

[@matthewdennis1739]

@@Thoughtpologetics That's a perfectly sound strategy.

[@revo1974]

@@matthewdennis1739It also depends on your scoring system. Been doing a 12 man fantasy league with my friends since 1994. We have other smaller leagues in prior leagues. We leaned long, long ago that the QB rankings don’t align well with how good they are in real life. Standard scoring favors running QB’s. We solved this problem by giving 1 point for every 5 completions (.2 per completion and 3 point bonus for 300 yard passing game). We also give 3 points for 100 yards rushing and receiving. With that scoring system QB more closely rank like they do in real life. And the 3 point bonus just makes fantasy more fun. You find yourself rooting for your players late in games to get the bonus. If a WR//RB/TE gets points for making a reception (PPR and 1/2 PPR), which shouldn’t a QB get credit for making a completion? I’m still surprised how other leagues remedy the QB issue with stupid things like 2 QB starters and 6 point passing TD’s. Just do 4 point pass TD, -2 point interception and add the completion and yardage bonus

[@GenXautrucity]

At least Cleveland and Dallas TEs remain an afterthought. Ingram had a good season for a reason. No WR, the constant double team on Ridley, Shitty play calling, below average O-line, run game was being shut down and really the only option left.

I find Burrow so boring to watch. Yes he's very accurate but he just tends to move the ball the same way. I'm often unenthused watching the Bengals. Burton's a talent and a headcase so he'll be interesting to watch but I feel they're missing an Icky Woods/Derrick Henry type RB to make the viewing spicier ⚡🔥👀

[@willjay921]

You haven't watched enough. You have to remember the lack of protection he's had. It gets a bit better every year. And the offense was evolving last year until he got injured.

Would you tank Tank Dell over Jamarr Chase? what about TEE Higgins? hilarious how much people get caught up in the media hype and Burrow and his weapons get overlooked. Even Andrei Losivias is a stud and is in solid shape, can get jump balls and has olympic speed. Bengals will be DANGEROUS

[@rollingman17]

[@themashugana9440]

Hard pass on Karen Williams. He was great last year and he could be great again this year, but his ADP so high. He's also a huge injury risk. He was a pick up player in most leagues last year and I always hate paying premium prices on guys who were largely undrafted the year before. They usually flame out for whatever reason.

Lol Williams in the 3rd. He is gone mid 2nd .

[@TDsNBeer]

See he says, he would gladly take him in the 3rd round (more Wrs, not elite but more Wrs than RBs, so why the take, like WR WR then RB? you ain't getting him in the 3rd then), but many drafts are having him drafted higher, always was and still is drafted in 1st or second in 10 to 14 man teams. This is the disconnect in these shows. Look at all the mocks, you will see-so I don't understand-and stop watching after that to entertain Engram, Burrow Sutton or Robinson-probably will say I will gladly take them in the 10th round.

[@saquanbarkely1518]
