I feel like Jamey’s contradicting himself saying Reed is a bust but Addison won’t be. David was right btw Reed got hurt towards the end of the season when everyone else was healthy

[@smercxz]

Addison is going to be less productive which is the funny part. Jettas is back, Hockenson is back, and Kirk Cousins will likely be gone

[@Red87star]

Interesting listen, but much TBD with QBs on the move & many WRs & QBs yet to be drafted. There's always exciting value sleepers in off-season that fly up boards before draft day in August.

[@alandavis8051]

I traded my 2023 1.08 when Flowers was available, I will have this year's 1.07 and 2.07 because of that trade. This year's receiver class is loaded compared to last year's class. I AM in rebuild mode and have these 2024 picks: My 1.03, 1.07, 1.10 ( traded Mattison and K. Ingram to the Connor owner), my 2.03, 2.07 and my 3.03 in a 10 team 1 qb league

[@gv2346]

Jayden Reed is used all over the field. I love reed!!

[@jamesjoseph5707]

I like Reed also but my worry is there are to many Mouths to feed when everyones Healthy. Love is good but hes Not putting up Kurt Warner numbers anytime soon.

[@gv2346]

@@jamesjoseph5707 Green Bay could possibly be top 10 in pass attempts next year. Reed getting more pass attempts and rushes will be a good thing. Watson isn't gonna start the season healthy he's an injury risk at this point. They found their guy in Reed

[@pistolrx9313]

Thank you Guys

[@joeyrigsby38]

Keeping Puka I'm a keeper league for an 8th round pick

[@Red87star]

Got him & Dell off waivers in 3 of 4 teams thanks to this channel. 💪 Both likely are keepers, Puka 💯

[@daverice7855]

IMO Tank Dell is not going to hold up against the violence of the league at 160 lbs and last season makes that point eminently clear to anyone paying attention.

[@yuribarros5931]

You’re wrong. Plus he will get to 170 :)

[@daverice7855]

@@yuribarros5931 From what I read he got hurt trying to block on a running play at the goal line. What in the world is a 160 lb smurf doing in a blocking assignment situation at the goal line? The OC should have his head examined!

[@killacambuckets4236]

Yea im pretty sure they wont do that aging normal size guys would of got hurt on that play

[@TheUndefeatedOfTheEast]

​@@daverice7855from what you read? You're talking a play that you didn't even care to take time to watch? You're already on KZbin might as well see what happened.

[@daverice7855]

@efeatedOfTheEast He's not my player. I wouldn't be that interested. I really don''t care about Dell at all. He'll be out of the league in a season or so when the rest of you catch up to the tried and true reality that some guys, no matter how much you dream on their speed and their quickness, are too damned small for the league.

[@MegaDistructo]

Thoughts on Nico Collins?

[@alandavis8051]

Wicks was durable

[@josephrossetti8607]

Did you see doubs in the playoffs? Reeds a gatchet player

[@yuribarros5931]

You’re right. Doubs 1 wicks2 Reed in the slot and for the occasional switch up. I have hopes for Watson but until he shows something. It’s a no go. -Packer fan

[@awesome19931]

Doubs is not a good NFL WR. Reed 1 Watson 2 Wicks 3

[@pagan1440]

You're sleeping on Marvin Mims Jr. That's my sleeper. I could see either or both sutton and Jeudy traded for cap space. Mims is part of there future.

[@evanbarnett2411]

don’t forget pats have kendrick bourne!

[@knumbawonn1211]

LEAP YEAR(every 4 years)!!!

[@Theodoredarling]

Robinson over cooper Kupp? Most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard

[@Corion2121]

9:26 Sometimes I wonder if Dave is being clever or cute. Either way, this is an awful take. Hyatt finished with 23/373. He’s a ghost. Don’t listen to Dave, everyone! He’s trippin’! 🤨🤷🏾‍♂️👎🏿🗑️👻 And the fact Dave is impressed with his college flashes and not his pro flashes (because there are none to speak of) should set off everyone’s alarm bells.

[@steveswaren6628]

He's clever as a fox.😅😂

[@Corion2121]

10:56 JSN won’t finish the 2024 season healthy.

[@splunk17]

Puka overrated going into '24.

[@ACT1ON_JACKSON]

Clown take 🤡🤡🤡

[@ACT1ON_JACKSON]

Absolutely not. Horrible take.

[@troywilkins4974]

Pssshhhhhh

[@troywilkins4974]

If he's overrated where do you rank him?
