Fantasy Football Happy Hour with Matthew Berry on Rashee Rice

From the episode

I end up talking myself out of Rasheed Rice in the fourth round more than talking myself into it... he's like the most limited player in terms of how you have to deploy him

Rice's limited man-coverage profile and off-field risks make him a fade

Matt Harmon is fading Rice in the fourth round due to off-field concerns, injury history, and a limited profile. While Rice is an excellent zone-beater (83rd percentile), he struggles significantly against man coverage (9th percentile). Harmon notes that the Chiefs' addition of Kenneth Walker may reduce the quick, screen-based touches that previously bolstered Rice's fantasy floor.
