PositiveSleeper0:03
Jordan Tyson is currently being drafted as wide receiver 32, but he has the potential to surpass 100 targets in his rookie year due to his fit in Kellen Moore's offense.

0:00I'm Draymond Green, host of the Draymond Green Show.
0:03I'm always looking for anything that actually helps with performance and recovery without turning into a complicated routine of powders and supplements.
0:10That's why Kayx caught my attention. This is a ready to drink creatine booster that's engineered to work the way creatine is supposed to.
0:17It's Swiss engineered, sugar free, and it even won a global innovation award this year.
0:22The reason it's different is because most creatine drinks lose effectiveness sitting on shelves.
0:26Kayx solved that with this really smart V-Cap design.
0:29The creatine stays sealed separately inside the cap until you open the bottle.
0:33So when you press it and drink it, you're getting the full fresh clinical dose right then and there.
0:39And it goes beyond creatine. You've got essential amino acids for muscle support, citrulline for endurance and blood flow, caffeine for focus,
0:46plus betaine, electrolytes, and plant extracts to help with hydration and recovery too.
0:50It's one of the few performance products I've heard about lately that genuinely feels innovative.

1:48Not the best rookie class, but there are some gems to be had in our fantasy drafts.
1:54And Dan Schneier is going to tell you his favorite rookies based on current value right now on FFT Express.
2:00Okay. Dan is here rocking an FFT shirt that is about 15 years old school FFT yet.
2:05Did you know the story behind this one? No.
2:08Okay. Got invited. Okay. First of all, never really been handed any FFT merch.
2:13Never had any FFT merch. I get a couple things for Draftathon every now and then.
2:18Nothing really great. You guys have all this stuff.
2:20I got nothing. I've been on the team now for a few years.
2:25And I go down to the office, fly down, you know, hang out, work for the week.
2:30And I'm like, can I get some FFT merch?
2:33I mean, I really don't have anything. And they're like, I don't think we have it.
2:38Dave's like, hold on. I got you. He finds Dave and Dave's the man for this, but he like digs out of
2:45some closet down there in the Fort Lauderdale office.
2:47I'm like merch box of these like oversized old school, old logo fantasy football today shirts.
2:52And you know what? I'm proud of this shirt.
2:55Adam is the only fantasy football today merch I have.
2:58It's not our logo. We don't use this anymore, but it doesn't fit me, but I'm very proud of it.
3:05Good. And just so you know, I have very little FFT merch.
3:08That makes me feel better. You don't really get a lot.
3:12We do draft a lot of rookies though. So give me a value that you like.
3:17Yeah. So rookies this year deflated value. That's why I kind of like some of the guys who are up at the top.
3:24My favorite one is Jordan Tyson at wide receiver 32 overall.
3:28You can get him just outside or just inside that wide receiver three range.
3:32I think it's upside for a lot more. The fit in that Kellen Moore scheme is really what stands out to me.
3:39He is quick game, get the ball out, find solutions for your quarterback, Kellen Moore, and win over the middle of the field.
3:46So last year, there wasn't really over the middle of field winner.
3:50We saw an expansion at times, uh, from targets for Chris Alave, but those are more winning on the outside outbreakers in
3:57breakers of the intermediate middle sometimes, but typically vertical and outbreaking.
4:00I think Tyson takes over that middle of the field ball winner and can really have a chance to surpass over a hundred targets in year one.
4:09This is going to be a team that passes more than both over expectation and then overall volume as well.
4:15Adam more than I'd say every all, but maybe six or seven teams in the NFL.
4:20When you look at the total picture there and what Kellen Moore likes to do.
4:25So Tyson's one for me. Do you want to move to the second or you want to talk a little bit about Tyson?
4:32I'll ask you a follow-up here. Jordan Tyson is being drafted in between Marvin Harrison jr.
4:37And a couple of Jaguars, Parker Washington and Brian Thomas jr.
4:41How do you feel about that? It's Tyson for me.
4:44Tyson has more upside than any of those players.
4:46I honestly do believe we talked about on the beyond the box score, but there is a non-zero chance.
4:52And I know you hate using that term, but there is a non-zero chance that he out targets Chris Olave this year.
4:59I really do believe that his role will be featured more.
5:03There is a non-zero chance that the stadium gets hit by a meteor.
5:07I guess you could say there's a non-zero chance that you'll beat me in two sets of tennis.
5:13Probably going to be a meteor before that. All right.
5:16What's next for you? Okay. Janarian price. I felt like Janarian price would be priced.
5:20No pun intended a bit higher at this point, but RB 26, we're talking about outside the RB two ranges is kind
5:27of like a range even further back than like where Deandre Swift was drafted last year, despite entering a situation with Zach Charbonnet coming off a torn ACL.
5:36We don't know when he's going to be back.
5:39Kenneth Walker moved on to the chiefs, Emmanuel Wilson's there, but I don't necessarily know that price won't really start this season
5:46off as one, their lead red zone back. If not their only red zone back and to their lead back for most
5:53series, maybe he comes off the field on third down.
5:56It's not something he's proven he can do at Notre Dame really didn't have much involvement in the passing game.
6:02There's a lot of red flags from that standpoint, from the passing out standpoint, but I'm not sure he needs it to pay back his RB 26 price.
6:11He's being drafted in a range with guys like facial toot and with guys like Chuba Hubbard, uh, tie Jalen Warren.
6:18As we move down to the next running back, I can't imagine taking any of those guys over price.
6:24If you're looking to swing for the fence and potentially win your lead.
6:28I could see it with Chuba Hubbard as we kind of wait and see what the Jonathan Brooks status is.
6:34That's such a mark right now. Um, I could see with basil toot and Chris Rodriguez is currently injured right now.
6:41And toot is apparently having a good off season.
6:43Um, I price, I think fits pretty well in this group because the group above that is, you know, Bucky Irving, Quinshon
6:50Judkins little bit before that, you're going to get like David Montgomery, Brees hall, fewer question marks about their roles.
6:57Paul's way ahead of that in ADP. Um, so I think he makes sense in this range.
7:02I struggle with him against toot and Hubbard probably would, would go with price first there.
7:07I don't really buy the competition. You know, I'd love to know more about when Zach Charbonnet is going to come back,
7:14but if it's just the guys that the non-charbonnet guys, he should be able to win that job.
7:19I don't think he's going to play on downs, but I don't think basil toot is going to play on third downs either.
7:27And Chuba Hubbard probably play a little bit there.
7:30Um, all right. Uh, but that's pretty unclear right now as well.
7:33All right, let's take a break and get a couple more rookies that Dan likes on FFT Express.
7:39I'm Draymond Green, host of the Draymond Green Show.
7:42I'm always looking for anything that actually helps with performance and recovery without turning into a complicated routine of powders and supplements.
7:49That's why Kayaks caught my attention. This is a ready to drink creatine booster that's engineered to work the way creatine is supposed to.
7:56It's Swiss engineered, sugar free, and it even won a global innovation award this year.
8:01The reason it's different is because most creatine drinks lose effectiveness sitting on shelves.
8:05Kayaks solve that with this really smart V-cap design.
8:08The creatine stays sealed separately inside the cap until you open the bottle.
8:12So when you press it and drink it, you're getting the full fresh clinical dose right then and there.
8:18And it goes beyond creatine. You've got essential amino acids for muscle support, citrulline for endurance and blood flow, caffeine for focus,
8:25plus betaine, electrolytes, and plant extracts to help with hydration and recovery too.
8:29It's one of the few performance products I've heard about lately that genuinely feels innovative.
8:34Kayaks creatine EAA booster. Visit ka-ex.com to discover more.
8:37That's ka-ex.com. All right, we're back. Dan, you've talked about Jordan Tyson and Jadarian Price.
8:41Who else? Okay, we're in now. We're moving toward this and it took some things, but we're in on my Kai Lemon.
8:48Kai Lemon's coming off the board wide receiver 38 right now in that range outside the top three.
8:54I'm sorry, outside the top 36 in the wide receiver four range with the possibility that he could be the second cog in this passing offense.
9:02And obviously there's not that much meat on the bone when it comes to the Eagles passing offense.
9:08I think they've averaged somewhere around 33 to 3,400 passing yards in the last three years with Jalen Hurts.
9:14If you take out the Kellen Moore year, it drops even further.
9:18I think he had what, sub 3,000 in one of those years, but they're trying to change things here in Philly.
9:24They're trying to evolve the offense and a player like Makai Lemon, who has won in the slot, has also won on the outside.
9:32You go back to his 2024 USC tape. He was winning as a route runner on the outside.
9:37So I think they're going to use him in a multitude of ways.
9:41I almost wonder if he's going to play like a move Z type role in this Eagles offense, which is exactly what he needs to play.
9:50And that could ultimately be a situation where you're paying wide receiver 38 price versus let's see what it is for Devante.
9:57Devante Smith, I imagine is much higher than that.
9:59Devante is the wide receiver 13 price and they're not too dissimilar from a volume and target standpoint.
10:05Yeah. All right, let's go. Actually, I know he's not a rookie, but I also like Dallas Goddard's value at 131st over all tight in 14.
10:13All right. Give me one more rookie. Like, yeah, we'll go deep for the final one.
10:18He's being drafted just outside the top 200 overall wide receiver 76.
10:22This is a last round type pick for you.
10:25But Dijon Stribling from the 49ers, a surprise pick for many in the draft over, you know, top 35 overall player, big investment for them.
10:33Just fits exactly what Shanahan wants to do. He fits the ability to be a physical, probably the best blocking receiver in
10:40this class, say for maybe Malachi Fields. I might take Stribling over him.
10:44He can play that in breaking role, like the role that wins in the 49ers offense, which is like play action.
10:50You have the receivers having these free releases and then these in breaking hits.
10:55And he's just really good at run after the cash.
10:58He's really good at changing direction and then picking up speed fast.
11:02He's got excellent acceleration. So he fits the scheme.
11:04Well, he blocks. So we'll get on the field early in my mind.
11:08And I think I wouldn't be surprised if he plays more snaps than Ricky Pearsall this year, who's being drafted way, way higher than him.
11:16So Stribling's my guy this year for a late round pick.
11:20Interesting. I mean, it was a pick that raised a lot of eyebrows on early in the second round for Dijon Stribling.
11:27The fact that he is a good blocker is part of it.
11:30You know, that's what they got from Juwan Jennings.
11:33Right. But Stribling, more of like raw talent than Juwan Jennings, who's honestly one of the slipper receivers in the NFL.
11:40All right. Thank you, Dan Schneier. And thank you all for watching and listening to Fantasy Football Today Express.
11:46We now have four FFT episodes per week and two additional FFT Express episodes.
11:50So that will continue to pick up as we get closer and closer to training camp.
11:55For Dan, I'm Adam. Have a great day. Talk to you tomorrow on FFT.
