[@shrimpsalad2498]

I think Jayden Reed is a solid wr2 with wr1 upside. I definitely see him as the best receiver for the packers in what should be a pretty high powered offense. They design a lot of plays for him, I don’t see him having trouble getting enough touches.

Why do we think Kimani Vidal can't catch? His reception numbers in college were fine and didn't see anyone mentioning it as a negative in his draft profile. This draft didn't have much high end talent at rb but don't go thinking the class as a whole was bad.

[@FantasyFootballAdviceFFA]

He has the 6th worst YPRR of any power 5 RB since 2015. The totals look ok until you consider how many passing snaps he played. He was just out there a ton and happened to catch a few dump offs

[@JordTheeNord]

​@@FantasyFootballAdviceFFA That's fair I guess. I think a better way to summarize it is that he doesn't PROJECT to be a good receiving weapon. I don't think it's set in stone, that awful YPRR could have been a product of the offense maybe? At the very least since he's competing with Gus and J.K. who are also not good pass catchers I think he has a shot.

[@sirspook4374]

Im a jayden reed believer. He only got something like 65% of the snaps. Sure, snaps and targets are earned. But he was a rookie in a deep wr room. Packers historically dont play rookie wrs heavily. Yet he took his opportunities and produced, broke packer rookie records. If he gets a 10% boost to his snaps (flowers had nearly 90%), which isnt asking much, reed could smash his adp. 94 targets on 65% snap rate is actually really impressive

He's talking about ADP..Watson would be your WR 5/6. If you take Reed, he'd most likely your wr 3/4 and you need him to produce. Watson/Doubs are much less of a risk and there's not a clear # 1 in GB. Watson has the most upside with not a lot of risk. I'd ha. I have been drafting Watson/Doubs very often late in drafts.

[@tylerduncan154]

Hey Nick, love the content! I have to call out though the point you made about Sean Payton and how he has produced top 3 backfield in 9 of 12 seasons and how we shouldn’t confuse causation with correlation. I could understand an argument for someone like McVay or Shanahan producing top backfields with multiple guys over the years, but all of those top backfield seasons from Payton were due primarily to Kamara with a couple from Ingram. I’m not saying Payton backfields can’t produce great numbers, but that we shouldn’t take the career success of two amazing RBs and say that it was solely because of Payton.

[@tobyflederstech5305]

Payton got 1400 yards out of Darren Sproles, got 1,000 out of Pierre Thomas, 1300 out of Bush, all as part of committees. His RBs always push for the league lead in receptions

[@notbenbutbenji]

All amazing RBs in their own right, last season none of Denvers RBs were worth a shit and none are up to the level of Kamara, Ingram, Bush, etc. I think his main point, and i agree, is that too much of these great RBs success was attributed to Sean Payton being the coach. In my opinions, its correlation not causation.​@tobyflederstech5305

[@tobyflederstech5305]

@@notbenbutbenji They were good players, but all of them had their best year under Sean Payton in New Orleans. Out of all the Saints RBs, only Mark Ingram did better outside Payton’s system, but Baltimore was the best running team back then and he was on PEDs.

[@notbenbutbenji]

@tobyflederstech5305 that's fair, but with Denvers passing game not really seeing any improvement, and them having done nothing last year, I don't think year 2 with Denver will be enough for Payton to take any of these RBs into fantasy relevance. At least outside of Estime and only bc he's like your last pick, a gamble-worthy adp

[@notbenbutbenji]

If we're going to give Payton that much credit, and I believe what you're saying I'm not as researched on this, then it still falls on the RBs to be good enough to make it happen, and I don't think Javonte, Mclaughlin, or Perine will be that caliber

Will do best draft advice from the 9-12 spot like last year?

[@Heathcoatman]

I'm avoiding all three Bears receivers. Rookie QB, several games in Soldier field in winter, I doubt Caleb will be throwing it 30+ times a game. How many targets will there be to distribute amongst these guys? I'd be surprised if any Bears receiver averages more than 6 targets a week. There's going to be several single digit scoring weeks from these guys. I also havent been drafting many Texans or Packers receivers. Too much 'by committee' receiving, meaning several games where your receiver gets 3 catches for 27 yards while the other receivers get 8/80/1.
