The 10 BEST Picks In Your Fantasy Football Drafts

you're probably here because you have a fantasy draft coming up soon and I'm here to help you out because in this video we're talking about the 10 best picks to help you win your fantasy draft and for what it's worth I've helped over 10,000 people win their drafts the last few years alone and I plan to do the same in this video for you and I want to start with the Houston Texans specifically their wide receivers and I actually want to look at the guy who goes off the board last amongst their starting three receivers niik Collin Stefan Diggs and I'm looking at tankel as one of the 10 best picks this year in drafts and here's why it was tank Dell last year who in his completed games 10 of them led the Texans targets and fantasy points more than Nico Collins and now despite that fact tank Dell goes as the 64th overall player in drafts he goes in the fifth or sixth round the drafts while niik Collins right now is going 30 picks earlier now if you're not familiar too much with tankel obviously played in those 10 completed games last year but he's been productive at every stop of the way you could take it back to college where he finished his college career at the University of Houston with two 1300 season through two 1300 yard seasons he ends up going in the third round of the NFL draft and then right away in the first preseason game he pops off for a big role and then as a rookie he has a great season in his rookie season he ranked 14th in yards per out run 18th in fantasy points per game and he had a top 12 finish and 40% of his completed games a stud now of course the obvious Counterpoint is that but yeah now he has Target competition niik Collins who was also great last year a top 20 receiver in efficiency a top 15 overall wide receiver in Fantasy is still there a top 10 receiver in fantasy Stefan Diggs the uh aging veteran sure but also a productive player for the past 5 to six to seven years he's now there as well and now I do get these concerns especially with digs a Target hog if you look at his last seasons 160 154 164 targets he's now in this offense I get that but Diggs is also 30 plus years old coming off of one of his wor seasons and now has to adapt to a brand new offense whereas tankel younger coming back into this offense where he had success last year here's the thing I'm not ready to just claim Stefon Diggs and even nicoo Collins as better overall wide receivers with CJ strout in this offense than tankel because that wasn't the case last year and a lot of people will point to the fact that tank Dell is smaller but this has really never shown up on tape last year he was averaging 15 point yards per reception winning downfield playing on the outside 70% of the time top 20 basically in downfield production last year so I'm not really concerned with him winning or not getting a role on the outside he's going to play on the outside in this offense in fact that's exactly what we saw in the first preseason game the starters played six snaps here tank Dell played four of them but these four snaps were on the outside they were on the outside and Stefon digs got moved into the the slot now here's the thing about this you can see right here that it was Stefan Diggs and nio Collins who played 100% of the starter snaps you can see in this column here and tankel only got four so he played four out of the six in two wide receiver sets it was Diggs and Collins on the field this makes some sense but I don't think that will be the case all year long again this is just a six snacks snap sample the important part Dell was on the outside in three wide receiver sets which is something that the Houston Texans are going to primarily be using this year so as of right now yes I like tank D in the fifth or sixth rounds as a third Texans wide receiver for a guy who's what five six years younger than Stefon digs and showed the upside last year now going into an offense that should be taking another step forward in year two under CJ strad one of the best picks is one tanked out and another great wide receiver pick in a similar round in the drafts is the number one target for Trevor Lawrence this year and that is Christian Kirk who last season this offense in Jacksonville threw at a top 10 rate and I expect based on their offseason moves that they'll do the same this year and believe it or not Christian Kirk goes right now even after tank Dell who might be the wide receiver one on his team but he also could be the wide receiver two or three Christian Kirk is the number one receiver on his team he's going after tank Dell he's going after guys like Keenan Allen when Keenan Allen is going to have much more difficult Target competition with the Bears you can see right here of course DJ Moore the number one receivers there dun a top 10 pick who if by the end of the year is a number one receiver you wouldn't be shocked and then you have Christian Kirk's competition nowhere near the same it's a rookie and Brian Thomas Junior who had a big catch in the preseason game but for the most part hasn't had a great Camp it hasn't been bad but it just hasn't been spectacular and Gabe Davis who over the years in Buffalo Gabe Davis really hasn't been all that great if you were to see right here Gabe Davis if we scrolled through his production over the years not the most athletic player he was never able to top a 100 targets with Josh Allen in that offense and that's what Stefon Dig's taking a lot of attention never was a consistent producer down field this is not a guy that I think is going to threaten Christian Kirk's role now it wouldn't be shocked if the rookie Brian Thomas did threaten this role he's a unique player he's 6'3 209 pounds you can see right here on player profiler then you go over to as his athletic testing 433 speed right this is a guy that in college he kind of just won with this speed downfield he has long strides to get by Defenders that's what he somewhat did in the preseason game with a 41 yard reception but he also came back to the ball his ball tracking looked pretty good there not shocked if he sees a big role but still I think Christian Kirk is the security blanket in this offense and if you look at aot lot of the underlying stats for Christian Kirk this is a guy who has been productive he's been a top 20 efficiency receiver the last two years he's been targeted on third downs and four first downs Often by Trevor Lawrence last year he was 33rd in fantasy points per game but this is skewed because he left a couple games early and only scored three touchdowns which was a career low but if you factor in all of this and the fact that now Calvin Ridley and Z Jones are gone you're going to see an uptick this year in terms of priority in the offense for Christian Kirk now in the preseason game you can see right here it was Brian Thomas this is the nine snaps with the starters Brian Thomas and Gabe Davis played those nine snaps Christian Kirk only played Seven so some people are concerned that Christian Kirk is not going to be on the field in two wide receiver sets since in then in this game that was Thomas and Gabe Davis but here's the thing we saw this happen last year Christian Kirk was only used in the preseason in the slot regular season started and he's a starter in two wide receiver sets I think the Jaguars are just trying to see Brian Thomas out there for more reps and that's what's happening here but we'll track this and if we look at the offseason moves here obviously we mentioned Calvin really and Z Jones the receivers are gone they brought back in Gabe Davis they ended up signing or drafting Brian Thomas and some free agents I believe based on all the offseason moves of not really signing a new running back in free agency of only drafting a late round running back on the offensive line being a little bit sketchy when it comes to run blocking this team is still going to be throwing at a top 10 rate which obviously helps their potential number one receiver Christian Kirk he's one of the best picks in fantasy and perhaps my favorite overall pick in fantasy drafts right now the most mispriced player who goes in round seven or eight of drafts is jayen Warren the Pittsburgh Steelers running back and here's the deal with Warren this is a guy I've said it before this guy last year ended up finishing as a top 30 running back he put up over 12200 yards while playing less than 50% of the snaps while being a backup or in a split backfield he put up one of the most productive fantasy seasons on a per touch basis last year and here's the deal yeah he finishes the running back 29 on that 50% snapshare only scored four touchdowns I think that's going to go up this year in which should be a very run heavy offense and believe it or not the situation for him has actually gotten better this year despite Naji Harris still being there and you might be saying how could that possibly be S well I'm glad you asked because yes Naji Harris is still there and and for the most part he had a pretty solid season last year he's entering the final year of his deal they did not pick up his 50 or options so you can make of that of what you would right now but in general it seems like Jaya Mor is going to see more investment in terms of just overall touches this year with Nai Harris leaving next year is kind of just some of the camp reports coming out right now in terms of a bigger role for jayen morren especially on third Downs especially in this new Arthur Smith offense more than that in a second but even outside of Naji Harris even if it was the same exact role which I don't think it's going to be the offensive line got better they spent their first two draft picks on Troy fatano a guard and Zack Frasier a center they also spent the fourth round pick on Mason McCormack this was already a borderline top 12 unit last year in my opinion they're a pretty clear top 10 unit entering this season on the offensive line and the team like I said also signed Arthur Smith to be the new offensive coordinator and for the past four straight Seasons he's LED his offenses with the Titans two years and the Falcons two years to being top 10 Rush offenses and this is a guy in Arthur Smith who use multiple backs during those Seasons whether it was in Tennessee or whether it was as recent as last year with Tyler aler and bejan both those guys were seeing 12 plus touches a game I think Jaya Mo can easily slide into that and more this year now in the first preseason game we didn't really get a lot of information here the starters did play 17 reps so that's important to note Russell Wilson was injured for this game so Justin field started here and you can see Naji Harris saw eight nine snaps Jaylen Moren saw eight snaps so it's basically similar to last year 50-50 split or so not a lot that we can gather from this Jaylen Mor was used on those passing Downs they split the early down usage so it's kind of similar to last year but again small sample of just nine snaps but the fact is Jaylen Warren was able to be productive and efficient on 12 touches last year why can't he do that on 15 to 16 per game this year Warren ranked top 10 at an explosive run rate broken tackle rate and yards per touch last season I think he's worthy of a top 24 running back pick and drafts this year he goes after that right now even if his role didn't change but entering year three after how good he was last year I think it's going to improve even more but the crazy thing is despite this he goes in end drafts after guys like Zach Moss who are nowhere near as efficient productive especially as pass catchers are in terms of explosive runs and Zach Moss might be losing his job right now actually in Camp to chase brown maybe more on that later uh it's just crazy that he's going after guys like this even Tony Pard in a in a 50-50 Back Field where he hasn't been as explosive I think PO is a fine pick but Jaylen Mor is somebody who just stands out to me as a clear top 24 running back not being drafted like that right now and I also think it's worth thinking about what happens if Nai Harris misses time because he hasn't missed time these last two years as Jaylen Warren has been on the team if Nai as an aging running back who's seen a lot of carries just misses one two even three games Jaylen waren becomes a top 10 running back for those weeks uh in fantasy and obviously that boosts his stock where you get him right now he has a ton of upside if something was to happen to Naji now this next running back is probably the latest you can get a starting running back in fantasy drafts and he's actually in a good offense but before we get there I do want to let you know about the fantasy

it to keep up with them you can scan the QR code on the screen or click the link in the description below now that running back who goes super late right now and as a starting running back is actually for the Dallas Cowboys Rico do he currently goes he's rising up draft boards a little bit but he goes in around 12 or 13 of a lot of drafts even if he's going in like round 10 or 11 I still think he's a solid pick because all the reports out of Camp right now and this is an article via the athletic that recently dropped Rico do has to be the favorite to lead the Cowboys in rushing this year there's been a lot of reports also that based on what since they've been putting pads on these last couple of weeks in Camp that he looks like the clear best running back compared to Veterans like Royce Freeman who's dealing with an injury second-year running back du Von who's dealing with an injury and the Aging veteran who's now back in ISO Elliott now some people might have been concerned seeing in the first preseason game that Rico do ended up playing six snaps and the starters didn't go on the field but there's a reason for this basically all those other guys like I mentioned duvon and Royce Freeman were hurt they couldn't play and Ezekiel Elliott was dealing with something minor and they just didn't kind of want to risk it they just needed bodies they didn't have running backs out there so they put him out there for six snaps he came out now don't read too much into that now you might be wondering who Rico do is well he's still just 26 years old and he's actually been on the Cowboys his entire career he's a guy who has some nice size here at 213 lbs if you're trying to think about what he could do in the Red Zone but the big concern for him is in his three seasons with the cowboys he's never had a 100 carry season he's never started an NFL game last year was his most usage and he was pretty good on this usage around the top 20 running back in efficiency but all he had was 89 carries and he added 17 receptions so barely over 100 total touches he's somewhat inexperienced but like I said there6 total touches last year he actually was productive he ranked 23rd in yards per touch and top 20 in broken tackle r and this was much better than his new running make Ezekiel Elliott had done last year in terms of those numbers with the Patriots and this offseason the reason why Rico do is kind of in the picture right now is because the team didn't draft any running backs which was kind of a shocker that they didn't add at least one especially later in the draft and right after the draft they resigned veteran Ezekiel Elliott to come back to the team maybe they'll trust him more on third Downs or in passing situations so we'll have to see there but as of that nothing changed they actually added a tackle in Tyler gon who in the first preseason game looked pretty good they're going to need to kind of have a good offensive line in some of these rookies they had because you can see right here they lost Center hler Bas they lost ly Collins they lost Tyron Smith they lost a lot of pieces on their offensive line so yeah this gon Guy having a good first game in the preseason first- round pick that's important now as I said Zeke wasn't great last year but look he's a veteran and this is a guy that Jerry Jones trusts and the offense is probably going to trust in general when it comes to key situations pass protection for Dak in the red zone now Rico can definitely win those if he can show that he can consistently do it but if you're talking about a guy like Mike McCarthy he might just trust the veteran to start the season more in those situations D might have to prove it but after that duvon a smaller running back back dealing with injury Roy Freeman kind of a cut candidate older running back dealing with injury these guys are not threats to really take much from Rico do at the very worst do is going to see more than the 20% of the snaps he saw last year even if it's a 5050 split with e ziko Elliott in round 12 or 13 in this offense as the more productive and younger and explosive back do is interesting because last year Tony per these are his numbers had over a th rushing yards he was inefficient last year per dealing with an ankle injury that he had surgery on in the offseason and three in rushing yards so par had over, 1300 yards last year in this offense if do has anywhere near that Heck if he has 75% of that he is going to be a smash home run pick in fantasy drafts in like round after 10 whatever you get him at but right now 12 in drafts is where he's going now if do is the latest you can get a starting running back maybe the latest you can get the number one receiver on a team is right here with Josh Palmer who goes outside the top 150 picks in round 13 he is on the Los Angeles Chargers and does have an opportunity to be their number one pick number one pick I me number one receiver there and of course there's other guys in this wide receiver Court there's the rookie lad makoni who works in the slot and out wide getting RAV reviews second round pick they traded up for I think glad makoni is great as well but makon is already going in like round six or seven of fantasy drafts and this team is going to throw at least 500 times this year more than likely so there's going to be multiple guys who can benefit and why not Josh pulman be one of those guys this is a guy who's now entering if you scroll down here his fourth season with Justin Herbert and when he's had opportunities he's had pretty decent Seasons now you could see just 49 targets 107 and 61 targets you might not be jumping up and down because of that but keep in mind this team no longer has Keenan Allen Mike Williams Gerald ever their starting tight end in the last few years and Austin Eckler all those guys Josh Palmer was competing with the last couple years they're all gone this gives him an opportunity to be a top two if not number one receiver for Justin Herbert but keep this in mind Herbert injured his foot and is expected to play week one but he's dealing with a planner fascia issue now this can be very complicated or it could be very minor planer fascia issues if it's like any type of a tear just if it's an Agra aggravation it might last a couple of days to a couple weeks it's any type of tear or anything like that this could linger all season long so we need more information on this it's kind of sketchy but as of right now let's just assume that he will in fact play week one like the reports are saying that they expect him to well now there's 254 vacated targets available with all those other guys Eckler will Willams Keenan Allen gone so Palmer might step into those and let's break it down some more because I've been on record saying Palmer isn't the greatest wide receiver he's finished as the wide receiver 42 in wide receiver 44 the last two seasons while competing with all those guys but I think he's definitely a fine wide receiver who has a little bit of upside and despite actually finishing as like a top 40 receiver these last two years he now goes as the wide receiver 59 in drafts even though all those other guys are gone it just doesn't make any sense to me and I know a lot of people will say the Chargers are going to run a lot this year they have Greg Roman their offensive coordinator now they have Jim H those guys love to run the ball yeah they're going to run a lot but they're still going to have to throw like 30 times a game at least because that's just the NFL we're in today these are the lowest passing teams last year the Titans threw 29 times per game Baltimore threw 29 times per game and I don't think that the Chargers are going to be leading in games like Baltimore was last year Sam France same thing they threw 30 times per game like at least you're going to throw 30 times per game the Chargers are actually projected for the 20th most points this year so I'd be saying that they're probably going to throw 32 to 34 to 35 times per game and if that's the case even if lad Maki in his rookie year was to earn 120 targets which would be a massive rookie year in rookie season Jos Palmer can still himself also earn 120 targets and if he's going in round 13 that is valuable even if he's not scoring touchdowns but imagine he has like a nice touchdown year of just five or six touchdowns easily he's going to finish around the top 36 wide receiver and I'm not really sure how we can be worried about his other competition Quin Johnson right now is a reportedly a backup based to on Camp reports and his preseason usage behind DJ shark who's a newcomer and a fine player probably a play the X deeper League sure you could look at him but I'm not too concerned about him consistently being out there in two wide receiver sets like a Josh Palmer in the rookie lad makoni should and the nice thing is we have a little bit of a sample Palmer he started 11 games without Keenan Allen in the past couple of three seasons with the Chargers and he averages 12.5 points per game and 7.6 targets per game 7.6 targets per game is right around top 30 wide receiver usage 12 and a half points per game is right around top 36 again Palmer now goes as wide receiver 59 this is an insane value I understand like we said earlier with Jim Harbaugh now being the coach a run first coach during his time at San Francisco and last year running 37 times per game in college with Michigan of course a different uh league and all that and just in general a different way they play the game and then the offensive Co Greg Roman has always ranked top 10 uh in run rate as a coach since he's been an offensive coordinator so I get that these are concerns but it's not like these two guys when they were together with the 49ers didn't have a number one receiver that they targeted a lot in 2012 Michael Crabtree had 146 Targets in 2013 Anquan Balden had 150 targets and in 2014 they both had over 100 targets and now this offense is going to be more pass happy just cuz that's how the league has moved it's not Colin Kaepernick a mobile quarterback behind center it's Justin Herbert who has a big arm and he's actually more efficient so I think that this is a nice opportunity I think Paul merc's at least at least 120 Targets this year and even if lad makoni breaks out that still makes Palmer a great round 13 option with even more upside if makoni doesn't break out all right next up let's go to one of the best picks you can get in all fantasy drafts because he somehow goes even though he's going mainstream Malik neighbors the rookie wide receiver for the Giants their number one receiver he's going mainstream right now it's a big New York media there's a lot of reports he's still going in around four or five of drafts and this right here the fact that he recently had this ankle injury that as of this recording it is expected to be minor with no fractures and if it's a minor ankle injury that means you know a week or two tops uh this is probably going to keep some people from drafting him so you could still get him as a fourth or fifth round pick I think he's a borderline top 24 overall player this year I don't have to draft him in the second round but I definitely will in round four round five and it's been just the entire off season right now you can see he was dominating Camp reports okay against his own secondary that's not supposed to be that good but then he goes up against a line secondary that added some pieces and he's just been absolutely you can see it here he dominated the Giants quarterbacks daily and then this week the challenge became the Detroit Li joint practices and he proved that his success against his teammates wasn't a fluke those teammates in the Giant secondary not as great as he routinely torched the Lions quarterbacks in their two practices together okay so this is great and then we go into the first preseason game and the limited snaps at the starters played 12 snaps you get Malik Neighbors playing 12 of the 13 starter starter snaps running every single route all eight routes operating as a number one receiver playing 92% of the snaps then it comes out after that game that he had a little bit of this ankle injury so now my guesses he be shut down the rest of the preseason but we've seen everything we needed to hopefully this kind of cools off some of that heat that he had in Camp the fact that he's dealing with an injury means he won't be in Camp in the preseason so we'll see less highlights with which means other players highlights will pop up and your league mates will want to take them instead hopefully that's the goal fingers crossed now as for Malik neighbors competition this is the reason why I think that he could see 150 Target season I mean you're talking about juand Del Robinson as a starter a short area guy Jaylen hayatt isn't even a starter right now in Camp he's a deep threat guy and then D Darius Slayton is a starter but this is a guy approaching 30 years old we know what he is at this point kind of an inconsistent X receiver who can win in the intermediate parts of the field but when you're talking about Malik neighbors top 10 overall pick comes out with comparisons to guys like Amari Cooper this is a guy who can break fantasy or at least have massive upside he's going to be featured in this offense it also helps that his head coach is Brian da and Brian da loves to feature a number one receiver he hasn't had that in his time with the uh Giants but now he does during his time in Buffalo he featured Stefan Diggs for 150 plus targets a season like we showed you earlier at the beginning of the video looking at Diggs past years 15060 Target years in Buffalo now if you're not familiar with Malik neighbors for any reason let me just give you a quick rundown on what he did last year at LSU he was absolutely fantastic he had over, 1500 total yards while competing against some of the top defensive backs in the nation in the SEC and battling another first round rookie that went in this year's draft and Brian Thomas Jr his teammate from LSU and neighbors himself is extremely athletic he Compares like I said to Amari Cooper guys like AJ Green he ran at his Pro Day in the low four threes despite being a somewhat bigger wide receiver who wins after the catch pretty nice profile I mean simply put when I'm in round four round five in my drafts I usually just take him in round four so the fact that he if he ends up losing or going after that I would just be kicking myself currently you get right now Marvin Harrison Jr the other rookie that W in this draft going in round two these guys are pretty comparable players I get the quarterback situations might be slightly different but that's massively baked into mck neighbors's price tag now as a fourth or a fifth round pick maybe the best wide receiver in drafts right now and a guy who's rising up the rankings and has become a top 10 pick overall fantasy for me right now is Chase Brown who quietly is becoming maybe the running back one in Bengals Camp it's not locked up just yet but let's break it down every single day we're getting positive news about Chase Brown and when they ask about the other running back in this backfield the veteran Zach Moss they're just like yeah he's like he can he can pass protect yeah he looks okay like there's nothing exciting there then Chase Brown goes out with the starters and he plays all 13 snaps 100% of the snaps he's on the field in all situations on the early Downs uh in the passing downs and pass protection spots now for this game Zach Moss did not play because they said he was dealing with something so maybe Brown would have been filtered and we could have got a better idea we'll see that in future games but it was encouraging to see that usage here this is via PFF by the way that brown did play all 13 snaps they did see him out there in pass protection and they trusted him in those situations to protect Joe burrow who is coming off of resurgery now we already know that chase Brown is the younger more explosive in Dynamic back compared to one Zack Moss you just saw that last year alone in their samples that they had on the field and then we get Zack Taylor coming in here and saying that his favorite thing he's seen from Chase Brown in Camp is consistently when it come or consistency when it comes to pass protection he would go on to add that he's done everything Chase Brown that the coaches have asked of him so this is positive news which is why when you see reports like this Zack Moss listed ahead of Chase Brown in the dep chart keep in mind it's an unofficial dep chart and these things don't matter at all because we have an entire camp in preseason that we can actually get real data from not just this beginning of Camp unofficial dep chart no because those things like Chase Brown seeing pass protection usage getting talked up in Camp compared to Zack Moss those things matter more than an unofficial depth chart at the start of camp now obviously Joe Mixon is no longer with this team if you're not familiar well there you go you just got it he's on the Texans now so the team did sign Zach Moss this offseason but they only gave him like $3 million a year none of that's even fully guaranteed it's kind of just being paid like low tier starter but mostly backup money so the incentive if you're talking about MoneyWise the fact that they gave him a contract Zach Moss is not going to keep him over the field over one Chase Brown who like we have already mentioned has the nice size of 209 lbs has the atlete athleticism ran in the four fours last year at the NFL combine and then in flashes showed success as a rookie now most of that success came as a pass catcher if we scroll down here on player profile you can see he averaged 5.8 yards per touch but this is cu he had a couple of big receptions he was only averaging 3.8 yards per carry but keep in mind this was on a team that had an injured offensive line last year he was a rookie Chase Brown he's improved since then apparently and only had 44 carries so we can't be kind of knocking it against him when he had 44 carries eight of them were in the red zone some of these are on the goal line so you can't even get big runs right the most you can get if you're on the three yard line is three yards so I'm not really going to hold that 44 touch sample against him last year so right now I think Chase Brown is in an interesting spot as a 10th round pick you can see they also improved their offensive line by getting Trent Brown he's kind of a hit or miss player but when he hits he's one of the best in the league of tackle they also added am Marius smims who's currently dealing with an injury but he's one of the biggest and best run blockers in the entire NFL draft first round pick when he's out there and healthy should improve this offensive line that last year was a little bit Hit or Miss due to injuries we're hoping now they could be around League average or better that's all you need for your fantasy running back to find success next up I want to talk about the best quarterback picking drafts and this one might seem crazy because yeah he's in the number one quarterback for a lot of people or he's up there with guys like Lamar Jackson Mahomes and Josh Allen but it's Jaylen Herz for me because how is it hard or how is it um how is he not the number one guy right because right here you can see the last two seasons he was a number one and number two guy last year he was number one with a bullet until the second half of the year when he ended up dealing with not just one but like two or three four different injuries and he still finished as the number two option largely because of what he can do on the ground 760 rushing yards more importantly 13 rushing touchdowns and 15 rushing touchdowns last year we can't rely on that every year but it's been a pretty consistent thing 10 plus rushing touchdowns every year we can kind of rely on that as as long as Herz is healthy now last season you you had to take Jaylen Herz in like the second round now he goes as the 32nd overall pick so you actually get him a round later despite the fact that he actually was productive last year and sometimes I've even seen him fall to like the the three four turn and people get him at the beginning of the fourth round and for the most part what has changed since last year besides the fact that he's gotten healthier well I could actually think of a couple things but they actually benefit this guy for starters the Eagles have a new offensive coordinator and this is going to be a big upgrade their won last year and Brian Johnson wasn't all that great they have a new one in Kell Moore and apparently all the reports out of Camp is that right now in this new offense it's probably the best Jaylen Herz has looked in 5 years they're saying that he looks comfortable in the Kell Moore system A system that should involve more plays a faster pace of play pre- snap motion all these things make an offense more efficient and get more plays out which helps Jaylen Herz now another thing that has changed is that J Jason Kelce a Hall of Fame Center has retired or future Hall of Fame Center has retired so obviously that's not the greatest of news but it's not going to change this offensive line PFF still has him as the number two offensive line entering the year because they have a great Center still to replace him that Kelsey handpicked a couple years ago in the draft and cam Jurgens and the rest of this offensive line is bulletproof it's great so I'm not really seeing a concern here in terms of a drop off in their offensive line play and another thing that didn't change and this is a good thing for one Jaylen Herz is that he still has his two alpha receivers there right you still have AJ Brown and Devon Smith if anything he might have a new wide receiver three and Johnny Wilson getting a lot of hype in Camp this 230 40 pound wide receiver playing out of the slot might even give them a more efficient look in the Red Zone with a monster like that on the field next to one AJ Brown and something people always underlook is that the fact that you're division you play them twice a year so how good are those defenses well for Philadelphia they'll be playing the Giants and the commanders who have bottom five secondaries entering the year and even more important Philadelphia's secondaries also not that great their front is good but their secondary is also 24th in the NFL according to PFF so if they're going to be facing a lot of teams in their division with bad secondaries and their secondary as you can see right here 24th in the league at least on paper to enter of the Year isn't great it could lead to some shootouts which again is only going to fuel bigger performances for a guy like Herz so when I'm in round three of my fantasy drafts I love starting a draft with maybe like an anchor running back in round one getting a stud wide receiver in round two and then if Jaylen Herz is there in round three I feel amazing about those starts now before we get into who I believe is the best tight end right now in fantasy drafts and another stud receiver I want to let you know that right now 68% of you who watch these videos are not subscribed I just want to say hey hit the Subscribe button a lot of you are new here these videos are popping off during Fantasy season it's a little nudg to hit that button I want to get as close to 50% as we can before week one it's a goal of mine and it really helps the channel more than you could possibly know so here's your urge hit that subscribe button now I mentioned that tight end who might be the best value in all of drafts right now and I I want to show you there's a lot of good guys if you're looking in terms of like round five through 10 you have Dalton cancade pops up you have Kyle Pitts maybe a breakout season Evan Ingram let all tight ends and receptions and Target last year even guys like David and joku are a solid Value Pat Fruth right all these guys are nice options but I also like quarterbacks I like receivers I like running backs in those same ranges of the draft but what if I told you you can find a starting tight end with a ton of upside Elite athlete has had top 12 finishes in the past as recent as a few years ago you could actually find him in like the 16th round of the drafts you'd be like Oh no you're crazy well no look right here no Aon goes as the tight end 24 192nd overall this is the best tight end in all fantasy drafts right now if you could actually land him and I know the first thing that you're going to be saying s did you see what this did last year I did I actually pulled it up right here on player profile I knew you would ask right hey look this guy was 36 amongst tight ends last year just 4.3 points per game zero touchdowns scored this is the guy you want me to be drafting well it would be smart of you to kind of point that out and see how bad he was last year and bring up the question I appreciate that but I want to add some context because this is nowhere near the same Seahawks offenses last year or the same competition for Noah fun for starters his biggest competition last year was Kobe Parkinson and will dley both of those veteran tight ends are now gone they were rotating with NOA font three tight ends last year they're gone and they weren't replaced the only tight end brought in AJ bar Barner a middle round to late round rookie does not really seem to profile out to be a threat in year one which means no font is going to see the Workhorse tight end usage if you will entering this year which is important because this is a brand new offense that's going to throw more because their new offensive coordinator is Ryan grub we've talked a lot about him on this channel he comes over from Washington he won he had a top five offensive Washington last year because he utilized three wide receiver sets in passing the ball a lot so when you look at Noah fun a guy that I mentioned has had top 12 tight end finishes earlier in his career tight end 12 tight end 11 then he starts to split rotations with three tight ends in Seattle and goes to the tight end 23 and 36 I'm expecting him to get back to that full-time usage here and be a top 12 to top 11 to top 10 tight end that you get as the tight end 24 off the board because last year font ranked 33rd in tight end snapshare and there's a good chance entering this season that that can go into the top 10 which is going to lead to a much bigger season now for the next guy who's one of the 10 best picks in all fantasy drafts and I got to talk about this guy it's Drake London because as of right now some people might be scared if we look over here on fantasy pros his ADP is 22nd overall he goes as a second round pick yes I get that I understand all that but he is worth it and you might be saying but Sally's only finishes the 43rd and 42nd wide receiver in fantasy the last two seasons isn't that bad well I would tell you hey that's actually Improvement he went from 43rd to 42nd I mean I'm just kidding here let's give you the real context as to why I'm not worried about these last two seasons because if you actually watch the tape you can see that London was good out there and it was his quarterbacks in Marcus Mariota and Desmond R and Taylor HEI that were just so inaccurate and couldn't hit him on a low offense passing team but this big guy 213 PBS 6'4 is now going to be in a much improved offense with the best quarterback of his life in Kurt Cousins he's going to see a lot more Red Zone opportunities and just a lot more Targets in general because that new offense is going to be led by new play caller Zack Robinson who in the first preseason game actually he comes over from the Rams a team that leads the NFL in three wide receiver sets and passing volume he came over and in the first preseason game he did exactly that he played three wide receiver sets and passed the ball a ton here's actually those exact breakdowns again this is via PFF right here Zack Robinson came over from the Rams who used 11 personnel 95% of the time you can see right here 94.7% of the time last season that led the NFL and then in Friday's preseason game Robinson used it 95.6% of the time compared to last year the Falcons who used a league low 17.1% rate now these are a lot of numbers but here's the thing it means that he just showed that he can go from being dead last to Falcons last year in three wide receiver sets in pass rate to maybe number one or up there with number one in the NFL that's obviously going to change the entire outlook for this offense and their number one receiver Drake London and for what it's worth his new quarterback is Kurt Cousins who was leading the league in passing last year before injury and passing yards and efficiency and now he's coming into and for what it's worth his new quarterback is KT cousins who loves to pass the ball he was leading the NFL in passing yards before injury last year and all of Kurt Cousins wide receivers the last seven years on average I should say have finished as a top 10 wide receiver and that's not just Justin Jefferson you have guys like Adam Thon and Stefan Diggs also in there and Drake London is a talented player I think he's going to be the next guy to have a top 10 finish with Kurt Cousins these have been the 10 best picks in all of your fantasy drafts it's going to help you win your league but if you want the complete guide to the running back position I rank the top 40 running backs this year in fantasy one by one in order with tiers as well so you know exactly who the best guys are in this video right here so make sure you check that out before you draft and even after just so you can kind of get an idea because this is very very important it's a guide to the running back position
