Chuba Hubbard

NegativeValue2:11

Ron Stewart suggests that if a fantasy manager's running back room is already set, selling Chuba Hubbard to acquire Tee Higgins is a move he supports, viewing Higgins as the superior asset to target.

Ron Stewart advises fantasy managers to 'get out of the Rashee Rice business' in order to acquire Tee Higgins, signaling a preference for Higgins' long-term upside over Rice's current market value.

Tee Higgins

PositiveValue0:03

Ron Stewart identifies Tee Higgins as a primary buy-low target, noting he is currently the WR25 in usage. Higgins has shown strong efficiency with a 27% target per route run rate and 2.57 yards per route run. Stewart argues Higgins is one spike week away from entering the fringe WR1 tier alongside DeVonta Smith, Drake London, and Garrett Wilson, supported by Joe Burrow's career-best PFF grade and Higgins' role as the focal point of a new play-action-heavy Bengals offense.

0:00And there is no better time to trade in
0:01your fantasy football league than right
0:03now. First player we're looking to buy
0:05is T Higgins. He is the wide receiver 25
0:08on wide receiver 28 usage. He had five
0:10catches for 95 yards. That's great, but
0:12it's 14 PPR points. Week one he had
0:14three catches 59 yards. I think T
0:15Higgins is one spike week away from this
0:19low-end wide receiver two to getting up
0:21into that Devonte Smith, Drake London,
0:23Garrett Wilson kind of like fringe wide
0:26receiver one area. This is from Joe
0:28Goodberry pointing out that this is the
0:30best Joe Burrow PFF grade through two
0:32weeks of his entire career. He has a 27%
0:35target per route run rate from Jacob
0:36Gibbs here, 2.57 yards per route run,
0:39and then he's leading Cincinnati in
0:41play-action target. The Pittsburgh
0:42Steelers is who he plays this week. On
0:44paper it's not great. 31st most points
0:46to fantasy wide receivers. Well, they've
0:47played the Falcons who had Cooper Rush,
0:50and then they've also played Drake May,
0:52and you're talking about like, you know,
0:53Romeo Dobbs and the Funky Bunch on that
0:55team. This new play-action filled
0:58Cincinnati Bengals offense, T Higgins is
1:00the focal point of the play-action, and
1:02Steelers are allowing 50% explosive play
1:06rate on play-action passes through the
1:08air. Now, it's a small sample, but it
1:09just means that they are very
1:10susceptible to play-action allowing for
1:12a big play, which is where T Higgins
1:14thrives. I think that this could be a
1:16blow-up spot. What can we actually pay
1:18to get him? I would send two in for T
1:20Higgins. T Higgins for Jeremiah Love.
1:22No, I probably still with Jeremiah Love
1:24there. If I could get out of the Rashee
1:27Rice business to get into T Higgins, I
1:29would do that. I'm not even crazy about
1:31selling Hubbard, but I would sell
1:32Hubbard for T. If I was If it was like a
1:34team where my running backs were set. If
1:35you're in a spot like that, I I don't
1:37hate selling a running back to get into
1:39the T Higgins business.
