Davis Mattek on Brian Thomas Jr.

VideoWhat Happens When You Draft ONLY Your Guys In Best BallCaptured August 1, 2026

From the video

BTJ I like. I think he's fine...BTJ has already delivered a top 10 wide receiver season...I like Jordan Tyson a little bit more.

Proven top-10 WR but lacks ceiling upside Mattek targets in best ball.

Mattek likes Brian Thomas Jr. and thinks he's fine, but does not consider him a must-have player in the draft. BTJ has already delivered a top-10 wide receiver season, making him more likely to repeat a top-10 fantasy finish than a prospect like Jordan Tyson. However, Mattek still prefers Tyson slightly in best ball format for peak ceiling, suggesting BTJ is the safer/more proven option but Tyson has higher upside potential.
