0:00I want to go through some guys that have
0:01actually had bad news over the past 24
0:03hours or so and I may look to sell high
0:06if you drafted him, starting off with
0:07Drake London. So, I know we talked about
0:09this a lot in the live stream last
0:10night, but the big thing with London is
0:12Tua being announced as the starter isn't
0:15as good as it may have seemed 3 months
0:18ago. 3 months ago, if you would have
0:19asked me, "Hey Mason, what do you think
0:21about the Atlanta Falcons quarterback
0:22situation?" My read on it would have
0:24been, "Oh, I guess they got Tua and
0:26Michael Penix, right? Worst case
0:28scenario, Michael Penix is what they go
0:30with this year if Tua just doesn't have
0:32any juice. And best case scenario is
0:34Michael Penix bounces back after this
0:36injury and he looks really good, but at
0:38least they have a floor at QB." But,
0:42the reports we got all training camp
0:44indicated I was flat out wrong and
0:46honestly, maybe the worst case ended up
0:48happening. Because what we got out of
0:51Atlanta Falcons camp all off season were
0:53beat reporters coming through and saying
0:55Tua looks horrific. Tua looks like
0:57garbage. Michael Penix is going to be
0:59the starter. And then, now that the
1:00season is actually here, we've learned
1:03Michael Penix isn't healthy enough to
1:06play. Michael Penix isn't going to be
1:09good for week one. He can't even be the
1:11backup. He can't even be active. So, we
1:15just got told over the past month how
1:17bad Tua looked in camp and they don't
1:20have an option but to play him
1:21nonetheless. So, honestly, I am way more
1:25pessimistic than I was 2 months ago.
1:27Now, am I dropping Drake London down to
1:30being a third round pick? No, no, no,
1:32but I do think at this point I would
1:35rather have Derrick Henry. I think at
1:37this point I would rather have A.J.
1:39Brown. Yes, we did reflect this with our
1:41rankings updates um as soon as we got
1:43the news, right? I mean, I think if you
1:44go and look at our latest top 100
1:46rankings video we put out on this
1:48channel, we have A.J. Brown ahead of
1:50London. But, a big reason why Tua is
1:54very concerning as the Drake London
1:56quarterback is where does Drake London
1:58operate? Is he a shifty wide receiver
2:01that's a little smaller that's going to
2:02be closer to the line of scrimmage over
2:03the middle of the field? No. Drake
2:05London is an alpha wide receiver that's
2:07going to be working on the boundary.
2:09That's also going to be working deep
2:11down field and Tua can't throw the ball
2:14there. If we go back and look at 2025
2:17with an intended air yards per pass
2:19attempt, an air yard is how far down the
2:22field does the quarterback throw the
2:24ball, right? If the quarterback throws
2:26the ball to the running back 1 yard
2:28behind the line of scrimmage and the
2:29running back breaks a tackle and goes
2:31for 30 yards, maybe that would have been
2:34a 30-yard completion for the QB, but
2:37from an intended air yard perspective,
2:39it was -1, right? Just how far are they
2:41throwing deep down field? It doesn't
2:43necessarily tell us who's the best
2:45quarterback in the league or who's the
2:46worst quarterback in the league. It just
2:48tells us what area of the field are they
2:49looking at. Tua was a bottom-three
2:52quarterback here with 6.7. The other
2:54quarterbacks that were under him Aaron
2:57Rodgers at 6.0. I don't think it's a
2:59surprise to anybody that Aaron Rodgers
3:01at this point at 68 years old, his arm
3:04is cooked. And Geno Smith at 6.1. So,
3:08Tua being announced the quarterback's
3:09going to limit this offense. It's going
3:11to feed targets over maybe a little bit
3:13more to Kyle Pitts actually and I don't
3:15know if he's going to be able to push
3:16the ball to the boundary to Drake
3:18London. We can actually see market
3:19makers are also extremely low on this
3:22Falcons offense. Right now, they have an
3:25implied team total that puts them as a
3:27bottom-eight offense of the week. Their
3:30game against the Pittsburgh Steelers has
3:31an over/under of only 41 and 1/2 points.
3:35The Steelers are favored by 3 and 1/2
3:36points as well according to
3:38PollyMarketUS. Now, of course, if you
3:40wanted to check out any of those

3:53Now, let's go over to our next name,
3:55which is going to be Javonte Williams.
3:57With Javonte Williams, he did get the
3:59bad news that the Dallas Cowboys did
4:02just lose their left guard. And I said
4:03this in the live stream again last
4:05night, but I'm not going to be able to
4:06sit here and pretend that I'm some
4:08next-level expert when it comes to what
4:10we have with these offensive linemen.
4:13But even myself, I know that Tyler Smith
4:16going to the injured reserve is going to
4:18be a very bad thing for this Dallas
4:20Cowboys offensive line. Now, of course,
4:22I'm not dropping him down a round, very
4:24similar to Drake London, where I'm like,
4:25"Hey, this move maybe drops him two to
4:28three spots in my rankings." Similar
4:30thing with Javonte Williams here.
4:31Because if we go through and look at the
4:33Javonte Williams profile, while yes, the
4:36season-ending numbers look decent
4:38because he started off hot last year,
4:40what we ended up seeing from Javonte
4:42Williams halfway through the year was
4:45just a massive falloff with his output
4:48from a week-to-week perspective. Like in
4:50the first five games, Javonte Williams
4:52did have three games over 20 fantasy
4:55points with two games over 25. But then
4:57afterwards, in weeks 6 through 16, what
5:01did we see from Javonte Williams?
5:04Zero games with 20 or more fantasy
5:07points. We saw three games with fewer
5:09than 10. So, what this concerns me with
5:12is it concerns me that potentially
5:13Javonte Williams, a running back that
5:15had dealt with significant injuries
5:18early in his NFL career, that possibly
5:21had zapped him of his athletic juice
5:23that we really liked from him as a
5:25prospect, maybe he lost steam halfway
5:28through the year. It doesn't work in his
5:30favor either that he has never averaged
5:33more than 12 fantasy points per game
5:35before last season. So, what I would do
5:38is I would look at Javonte Williams and
5:39say, "Is this probably a running back
5:42that has a little bit of a cap ceiling?
5:44Do we really believe that Javonte is
5:46going to give you the optionality to be
5:48a top 10 running back, a top five
5:50running back. Now, of course, you may
5:52say, "Well, Mason, I'm drafting him as
5:53my running back two." But, my thing is,
5:55if we are drafting a running back or
5:57we're built around a running back two
5:59that doesn't have top 10 upside, would
6:01we rather just pivot over to somebody
6:03who does? Cuz if I go through and if I
6:05look at some of the other running backs
6:07that are in the range of Javonte
6:08Williams with rankings, I will say,
6:11"Well, Kyren Williams 100% has
6:13significantly more competition than
6:16Javonte. Blake Corum is a much, much
6:19better running back than what you have
6:20with Malik Davis. We've at least seen
6:22the ceiling with Kyren Williams. We've
6:25at least seen Kyren Williams for three
6:27straight seasons now be a top 12 running
6:30back averaging at least 15 fantasy
6:32points per game. And on top of that with
6:34Kyren Williams, obviously, the Rams are
6:37the best team in the NFL, right? They
6:39are heavily favored in that Thursday
6:40night game against the San Francisco
6:4249ers. And then pivoting over to Travis
6:45Etienne, I would look at Travis Etienne
6:47and Javonte Williams, and I may rather
6:50have Travis. Cuz I mean, going back to
6:53the long track record that we have with
6:54these players, like we have seen
6:56multiple seasons Etienne be a top
6:59running back in fantasy. It wasn't just
7:01the 2025 production. Travis Etienne in
7:042023 was the running back seven in
7:07points per game with 16.6. He gets the
7:09contract to go over to the New Orleans
7:11Saints, an offense that's not as good as
7:13Dallas, but they will be a little bit
7:14more run-centric. And if we look at the
7:16competition in Etienne's own backfield,
7:19once we get the Kamara injury, once we
7:21get the Devin Neal injury, once we get
7:23the Kendre Miller injury, it's just as
7:26thin, if not even thinner than what we
7:28have at the Dallas Cowboys. So,
7:30something that I would love to send out
7:32an offer if I was a Javonte Williams
7:33owner, is I would see if I can move
7:35Javonte Williams down to Travis Etienne
7:38and maybe get an upgrade elsewhere
7:40inside my starting lineup. Now, our next
7:42name, I hate to say this, but we are
7:44going to bring up Ladd McConkey here.
7:46And with Ladd, I understand the upside
7:48appeal, right? Because his situation is
7:50significantly better than it was last
7:53year. Ladd McConkey this year gets a
7:55significant upgrade with his offensive
7:57coordinator. The Chargers this year get
7:59a significant upgrade with their overall
8:02offensive line unit, and that's bringing
8:04market makers to believe that this is
8:06going to be one of the most improved
8:08offenses year-over-year. Lastly, Keenan
8:11Allen going over to the Indianapolis
8:12Colts does frankly mean that Ladd
8:15McConkey is going to have less target
8:17competition. So, all those signs are
8:19making Ladd McConkey one of the most
8:21hyped players in fantasy football.
8:23Obviously, we heard Junko recently say
8:25that he thinks the Chargers win the
8:26Super Bowl, and he thinks that Ladd is a
8:29top-five wide receiver.
8:31>> I love I love Ladd McConkey. I literally
8:34love him.
8:34>> I've heard Corey from Fantasy Stock
8:36Exchange saying that he thinks that
8:38Justin Herbert wins MVP. There is a
8:41ridiculous amount of hype around this
8:43Los Angeles Chargers offense, and it is
8:46completely understandable why. Now, I do
8:48want to take a step backwards and look
8:50at what Ladd McConkey actually did last
8:52season. Last season, Ladd McConkey was a
8:54high-end wide receiver four in fantasy
8:56football. Ladd McConkey averaged 11.3
8:59fantasy points per game. And if I'm
9:01going to be honest with you, it actually
9:03is worse than that if you consider the
9:06fact that some of these games that Ladd
9:09played well in, it's because Quentin
9:11Johnston, who was the wide receiver one
9:13for this team last year, just look at
9:15the numbers, was missing. In those games
9:17in which Quentin Johnston missed, Ladd
9:19McConkey jumped up to being the wide
9:21receiver 25 in points per game. And in
9:23the games in which Quentin Johnston
9:25played, Ladd McConkey was the wide
9:27receiver 41. Now, if you look at my
9:29rankings, obviously, I'm not ranking him
9:32as a mid wide receiver four. I think
9:33he's going to be better for all the
9:35reasons that we mentioned. I just don't
9:37think we can go in say that this is
9:39going to be a wide receiver one. I think
9:41if we look at the larger sample, it may
9:43make more sense to rank him as a lower
9:46tier wide receiver two. At least that's
9:49where I currently have him. But I have
9:51him in a massive massive tier, right? Of
9:53guys like Tee Higgins, Jaylen Waddle,
9:55DeVonta Smith, Emeka Egbuka, Tutu
9:58Atwell, McMillan, Garrett Wilson. And my
10:00main point would be if I could try to
10:02stay within that tier, if I could try
10:05selling Ladd McConkey and pivoting over
10:07to Emeka Egbuka and getting an upgrade
10:10elsewhere in my lineup, I would love to
10:12do so. If I could try to sell Ladd
10:13McConkey and pivot over to Garrett
10:15Wilson, get an upgrade in my lineup, I
10:17would love to do so. If I can sell Ladd
10:19McConkey and pivot over to Tutu Atwell,
10:21McMillan, get an upgrade in my lineup, I
10:23would love to do so. He's going to be
10:24much better this year than he was last
10:26year, but I think he is very very
10:28similar to a lot of wide receiver twos,
10:30but it seems like he has the most hype.
10:32And if we could get an upgrade to pivot
10:34over to another wide receiver two, I'd
10:36be interested. Now, moving over to
10:38Rachaad White,
10:39I know we've talked about this before,
10:41but for me, I moved Rachaad White down
10:44my rankings once Sean Tucker
10:46restructured his deal and once we got
10:48official word that he would be back in
10:50Tampa. Because what we now see with this
10:53Tampa Bay Buccaneers backfield is three
10:55viable running backs. We have Rachaad
10:57White clearly the most dynamic, clearly
11:00the most talented running back of the
11:02group, and it's not close. We have
11:04Kenneth Gainwell, who got paid a
11:06ridiculous amount of money to go to
11:08Tampa this year to be a passing down
11:10specialist. And now we have Sean Tucker,
11:13which if you look at the second half of
11:15last year, even once Rachaad White had
11:17returned from his injuries, who was
11:18their goal line running back? Was it
11:20Rachaad White or was it Sean Tucker? It
11:22was Tucker, right? So if I'm looking at
11:24Rachaad White, while I would 100% say
11:27this is an RB that's extremely talented,
11:29he was a league winner in his rookie
11:30season, I kind of see him getting
11:32squeezed with Sean Tucker from this end,
11:35Kenneth Gainwell from this end, and
11:37Bucky Irving being a smaller frame
11:39running back as he is, I wouldn't be
11:41surprised that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
11:43want to launch this as a full-blown
11:45running back by committee for the
11:46purpose of trying to keep Bucky Irving
11:49healthy this season. And what I would
11:51rather do here is I would probably
11:53rather see if we can pivot from Bucky to
11:55get to Travis Etienne. I would see if we
11:57can pivot from Bucky to get over to
12:00De'Andre Swift cuz I think they have
12:02significantly less competition in their
12:04respective backfields, and I don't think
12:06their offenses are any worse than what
12:07we have with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
12:09Now, going over to Marvin Harrison, with
12:12Marv, it is very, very difficult to go
12:16through and map out a world in which you
12:19are excited to start him this season.
12:21He's had back-to-back years finishing as
12:23a wide receiver four in fantasy, 11 and
12:251/2 fantasy points per game in 2024, 10
12:28and 1/2 fantasy points per game in 2025.
12:31And while he is an elite prospect, what
12:33we have seen this offseason is we have
12:36seen this team in Arizona significantly
12:40invest into the offensive weaponry, but
12:42at the same time, not necessarily go
12:45through and fix the main problem, which
12:48is going to be the quarterback position.
12:50Like if we look at the deal that they
12:52gave Michael Wilson, they gave Michael
12:54Wilson 47 million guaranteed and a deal
12:58worth up to 78 million for 3 years. If
13:00we look at what they did at running
13:02back, they significantly invested into
13:04Tyler Allgeier, and then they drafted
13:06Jeremiah Love third overall. So, now we
13:09do, frankly, have a lot of competition
13:11for touches in this offense from Michael
13:13Wilson to Trey McBride, who may be the
13:15best tight end in the league, and to a
13:17group of running backs that you're going
13:19to assume the Arizona Cardinals want to
13:21try to run the ball with compared to
13:22last year where they completely
13:24abandoned it down the stretch. And then,
13:26if we go over and look at market makers,
13:27which again, significantly smarter than
13:29I am. I am never going to be able to
13:31tell you that I could go through and try
13:33to make money betting on over unders,
13:36betting on spreads, right? It's not
13:37possible. They're smarter than I am, so
13:39I use their data to make better fantasy
13:41football decisions. They have the
13:42Arizona Cardinals as a bottom three
13:45offense this week against the Los
13:46Angeles Chargers as 10-point dogs
13:49against the Chargers as well, and
13:52winning the fewest amount of games in
13:53the NFL. So, Marvin Harrison's never
13:56been productive at the NFL level. He has
13:58more competition for touches than ever
14:00in his offense. What I would really like
14:02to do with Marvin Harrison is I would
14:04like to try to take a bench player,
14:06maybe like Stefon Diggs, and see if I
14:08can add him to Marv to get a higher-tier
14:11wide receiver I'd be excited about
14:12putting in my flex. Whether that would
14:14be DJ Moore, whether that would be
14:16Jameson Williams, whether that would be
14:18Christian Watson. Maybe you go through
14:20and throw Romeo Doubs into that list,
14:23right? But, I would try to get to an
14:24up-tier one of those borderline top 24
14:26wide receivers that I would feel
14:28comfortable starting. And then, the last
14:30guy that I want to bring up here is J.K.
14:32Dobbins. And I'm going to be honest, it
14:34obviously is nerve-racking making these
14:36videos because I really do not want to
14:39mess up. I really don't want to say
14:40something that negatively impacts your
14:42fantasy football team. Like, I don't
14:44want to tell you to sell Kadarius Toney
14:46and he turns out to be a top five wide
14:47receiver this year. I would feel like
14:49garbage for doing so. I don't want to
14:50tell you to sell Bucky Irving and then
14:52he turns out to be a top five running
14:54back this year. like the literal worst.
14:56J.K. Dobbins, I have no problem telling
14:58you to sell cuz there's no upside with
15:00J.K. Dobbins. Very similar to Bucky
15:02Irving, J.K. Dobbins is getting squeezed
15:05from two directions. J.K. Dobbins is
15:07getting squeezed from R.J. Harvey, the
15:09running back they drafted in the second
15:11round last year, who really does profile
15:13to be a much better receiving running
15:15back than what you have with Dobbins,
15:17and the running back that's probably out
15:19there on third downs. And on top of
15:21this, he is getting squeezed from
15:23Zonovan Knight, the running back that is
15:25a profile to be just an absolute tank
15:28and potentially take those goal line
15:30opportunities. If we go through and look
15:32at JK Dobbins, he is never been able to
15:35stay healthy through the course of an
15:37entire season. He has never been able to
15:40average more than three targets. He's
15:42never hit three targets per game in a
15:44season. So, we know he's not going to
15:45catch the ball. He's never been able to
15:47stay healthy. He's been in the league
15:48since 2020. And he's getting squeezed
15:51from both ends. He's never averaged 15
15:54fantasy points per game. I mean, he's
15:56only had one season ever which he's
15:58averaged more than 11. So, if you could
16:01leverage JK Dobbins, who in my opinion
16:03is a very low floor name because the
16:05injury concerns and a very low ceiling
16:08name because the competition and the
16:10fact that he doesn't get used as a
16:11receiver, if we could try to send him
16:14maybe with the combination of another
16:16wide receiver that we talked about like
16:18Marvin Harrison and get to an up tier
16:21running back to a range of like Quintez
16:23Judkins, David Montgomery.
16:26Obviously, if you can get to Swift and
16:27Etienne, those are the guys that I
16:28prefer. But, I think that would be an
16:30absolute no-brainer move and I would
16:32absolutely love to make that trade. But,
16:34I think that's all I got for you. Again,
16:36I really appreciate you sticking with me
16:38through this video. I'm going to be live
16:40every single night answering your
16:42fantasy football questions until
16:44Christmas. I think last year we were
16:46live for 200 days in a row for y'all.
16:48The year before we were live for about
16:49200 days in a row for y'all. Same thing
16:51about the year before. I think today our
16:53live stream streak is at like 120
16:56straight, but I'm going to try to get to
16:57200 yet again. We're going to keep it
16:59rolling. I'm going to try to answer as
17:01many of your questions as I possibly
17:03can. Much love. I really appreciate you
17:05and I'll be getting to see you on that
17:06live stream later tonight.
