0:41I'm Ryan Warmly, joined by Derek Brown. Today, we are having a short conversation on must-draft rookies that can help you win your league in year one, a.k.a.
0:502026. As a reminder, our 2026 consensus rankings and tiers can be found at FantasyPros.com.
0:54Slash rankings. Debro has prepared four of his favorite rookies for this year.
0:58Again, we're not talking dynasty. For this year, who can help you win your league?
1:03Debro, let's start with the one running back you have on the list here.
1:07Yeah, man. I think all of the risk and none of the upside is being baked in Jadarian Price's RB26 price tag.
1:14Like, I understand all the downside for him, but the upside case is easy here.
1:19Like, if he is Kenneth Walker this year, but he gets more of the red zone work.
1:24If Zach Charbonnet, who we're seeing various reports, he starts week one.
1:28I'm taking that with a grain of salt. I don't think he's going to be like fully healthy or like in a full-time role, even when he's back.
1:36And you don't spend a first round pick on a player like Price if you're not going to freaking use him.
1:42So all the George Helani stuff and Emmanuel Wilson stuff out there, I'm not that concerned.
1:47I'm not going to be burned or pushed off basically because Kenneth Walker didn't get the red zone usage last year, got
1:54the volume and had the poorest run out ever and pushed me off of Gendarium Price.
1:59Like, I understand when people have a little bit of problems of like saying, oh, well, he only had 13 targets over his final two collegiate season.
2:07Worm, if you go to the timeline right now, my man, there's an easy catch of Gendarium Price tracking a ball over
2:14his shoulder, showing that there are past game skills to be had for Gendarium Price.
2:19And you mix that with the rushing talent of a player that over the final two years of Notre Dame was fifth
2:25and 25th in yards of the contact per attempt, third and 31st in breakaway run rate.
2:30The talent is there, man, for him to crush this price tag and be like a top 20 running back this year.
2:37What is your expectation for Zach Charbonnet in terms of a timeline?
2:41Because I've been operating under the assumption he's actually back to like best case scenario late October, given that the surgery didn't
2:47take place till like February because they need to get the swelling down.
2:51And yet you see these tweets that are already starting to trickle out.
2:55Obviously, there's a lot of optimism during training camp season always.
2:59But you see the tweets like, oh, it's going to be a close call for week one.
3:04I'm like, hey, that just seems like absolutely impossible given when the surgery took place.
3:08But B, does it influence you at all in terms of, you know, what you expect from him in terms of his return?
3:16Because I've been thinking like, hey, if he's not back till like November and they're going to ease him in, shake off
3:22the rust and then just want to have him ready for January, that price is going to have this long runway.
3:29I have an all overpriced at RB 26, 67th overall value in terms of redraft leagues.
3:34But is there any part of you that's like, well, maybe Charbonnet is like medicine gets better every year.
3:39Maybe he is healing faster than expected. I see.
3:42I'm with you that I'm just kind of like pressing the BS button.
3:46Like, I don't believe a lot of the stuff that we're getting right now based off the timing and everything like that.
3:53Like, could he have a Wolverine like recovery? Sure.
3:56But is that also like they go out and they address the running back need in drafting Janarian price in the first round?
4:03Well, I think a lot of people were like, well, he's not a first round pick.
4:08There's a lot of questions with the profile and the player and what have you.
4:12You don't put that type of investment and capital behind a guy.
4:16If you were so just hell bent and like just dug in that Zach Charbonnet was going to be beating his timeline,
4:23he was going to be back by week one as well as fine.
4:26If he's back, he's back. That doesn't mean if he's active on week one, he's playing more than 20 or 30% of the snaps.
4:34Now for price to your point, though, worm, if he gets because see, here's the here's the bull case for price.
4:40Charbonnet starts slow or doesn't play for the first few weeks.
4:44Price comes on like gangbusters and he looks like the clear lead back and he's way better than Helani.
4:49They trust him in the red zone, the passing downs.
4:52And then even when Charbonnet comes back, maybe Charbonnet plays the complimentary role that we all kind of walked into last year
4:59thinking he was going to play with Kenneth Walker.
5:02So in any way that you want to play this, if Charbonnet is back early, but price gets the run and proves
5:09himself, just say, like, let's play this out weeks one through three, one through four.
5:13Or if he does that, can he take hold of this backfield and not let go of it?
5:19That's the way that I'm playing this. I think it would be malpractice if they didn't give him that opportunity, given the draft capital spent.
5:26Yes. And also just like it's real. I know it's a new play caller and everything, but it's really impossible for me
5:33to believe that a guy like Mike McDonald with his background, both in terms of the Harbaugh's he's coached under and what
5:40we've seen from him as a head coach himself.
5:43And that he's a defensive first guy, it's impossible for me to imagine this is going to be anything other than a run heavy team.
5:50And even with Charbonnet, like when he is back on the field, I think there will still be opportunity for price to
5:57outperform his ADP and his ranking, which, by the way, I said RB 26.
6:01It's now down to RB 27 since I put together the sheet.
6:05That's the Charbonnet news, man. He's going to keep dropping some.
6:08I will take that price, no pun intended, all day, every day.
6:12The last thing I'll say on him is I just want to echo what you said about like some of the stats
6:19in terms of him being a good player. Let's not hold the fact that he was behind one of the best running
6:26back prospects we've seen in a while against him.
6:28He happened to share a college backfield with Jeremiah Love.
6:31I don't care what his counting stats were when a guy who, yes, we all admit is better than Jadarian Price was in the backfield with him.
6:40That doesn't mean Price can't be a really good NFL running back and he got the draft capital.
6:45And I know that there's a difference between getting draft capital in the top 10 as a running back versus end of the first round.
6:53He still got the first round investment from a team that didn't have a lot of picks to spend this year.
6:59I just really, if he was inside the top 20, I'd be way more hesitant.
7:04But I just feel like the risk is baked in and the upside is just right there for the taking.
7:10The other thing that I have not heard this point out there at all.
7:14So correct me if I'm wrong here, Worm, that I think is kind of getting glossed over a little bit too.
7:21To your point, McDonald and that coaching staff inherited Zach Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker.
7:25Jadarian Price is the guy they chose to go out and draft.
7:29Yes, I know they have the same GM, but there's also something to be said for this coaching staff, for Charbonnet and
7:35Walker being holdovers from a previous regime as far as coaching, and this being the guy that they said, no, we want
7:42to go out and get this guy from this new coaching staff.
7:46Yeah, totally agree. We can go back and forth agreeing on Jadarian Price this whole episode.
7:51We have a couple other names to get to.
7:53Let's go to Carnell Tate first amongst the wide receivers you want to talk about here.
7:58Wide receiver 31, overall 71st. There is a runout where Carnell Tate could be a Malik Nabors type of rookie season, and
8:05I don't think that's insane, or even like we want to shade that a little bit.
8:10Teddero McMillan's rookie season, Worm, and you're not paying top 24 wide receiver price tag for it, man.
8:15Wide receiver 31 right now in ADP. The talent is real.
8:19And again, how many years do we have to go through this Worm where it's, oh, he's too slow.
8:25We played that game with Teddero McMillan. They played that game with Drake London.
8:29I said it was wrong at both turns. And here we are again.
8:33And people said, oh, well, yeah, but he's not a complete player.
8:36Get out of here, man. Like, I don't understand where people come away with this BS narrative street stuff during draft season
8:43of like, let's try to shade really, really talented players.
8:46I'm all in on Carnell Tate. Like, I think he can crush this ADP.
8:51I think the only thing, like, if people are worried about Wando Robinson, like, I know he had a really good season last year.
8:58That was also no Malik Nabors, no true alpha wide receiver to stand in his way from target competent or target earning ability.
9:05So, Carnell Tate, I've said it throughout the entire pre-draft process, and I'll say it again here.
9:10He is that dude. He was 10th in yards per outrun last year.
9:14Fourth best in receiving grade amongst all collegiate wide receivers with 50 more targets.
9:18You also talk about he is a three-level threat.
9:21He had zero drops in his final season in college despite having a 14.6 ADOT.
9:26Not only can he win at all three levels and stretch a defense.
9:30Dude, he is a ball winner at the catch point.
9:3368.8% contested catch rate in his final year at college.
9:36I don't want to hear any of the stuff about, oh, but Jeremiah Smith was making life easier for him.
9:42Again, targets are earned. Talent shows out. Carnell Tate has it.
9:45And I think he's going to crush this year.
9:48You invoked Ted O'Roe and McMillan. How would you compare the two, not stylistically, but just in terms of quality of prospect?
9:55Because Carnell Tate gets the better draft capital, right?
9:58He goes a few spots earlier in his draft class.
10:01Different class, right? There's other stuff that goes into that, but he goes a little bit earlier.
10:06I feel like I liked Ted O'Roe and McMillan a bit more coming out of college, even though he went a few spots later.
10:13They both go to offenses with some degree of question, obviously, at quarterback and what the offense is going to look like.
10:20I think we maybe feel a little bit better about Cam Ward going into year two than some people did about Bryce Young going into year three.
10:28Maybe you feel differently than that. That seems to be sort of the narrative I've seen, but similarly questionable situations offensively.
10:35But just overall good players that you and I both are kind of confused why there's as much hate as there is.
10:41And I'll also invoke Ted O'Roe and McMillan to say this is now the third straight year that I feel like I've
10:48been sitting here screaming at people saying, you know, two years ago, Malik Neighbors will never be cheaper than what his ADP is this rookie season.
10:56Last year, Ted O'Roe and McMillan will never be cheaper in drafts than what his ADP was going into last year.
11:02By the way, both of those turned out to be super correct.
11:06Not that that was I was going out on a limb there.
11:10But again, I'm looking at Cardinal Tate going into 30s.
11:13He will never be cheaper in redraft leagues than he is this year, in my opinion.
11:18How do they compare in your mind in terms of like Ted O'Roe and McMillan last year, 70 catches, 1014 receiving yards, seven touchdowns.
11:25Do those feel like attainable numbers for Cardinal Tate to sort of mirror that in his year?
11:30Oh, he can absolutely mirror that if not surpass.
11:33And I think this all comes back to a conversation about quarterback play.
11:37I don't think anybody will fight either one of us on who is the more naturally talented and gifted player and thrower of the football.
11:45Cam Ward, Cam Ward versus Bryce Young. And again, going back to yesteryear narrative season, I was told Jackson Dart was garbage.
11:51I was told Jackson Dart wasn't good. I was told Jackson Dart wasn't going to be a first round quarterback.
11:57He was my QB one of that process, by the way.
12:01And that proved to be correct. Brian Dayball is a good quarterback coach.
12:05He can do things with this offense. And going back to like just comparing the two guys, I think stylistically they're very different.
12:12The way that they are very similar is both of those players, Ted O'Roe and McMillan and Cardinal Tate, are true wide receiver ones for an NFL offense.
12:20A lot of people don't discuss Cardinal Tate in that manner because he was used kind of as a field stretcher and
12:27they don't look at him in that light. I just look like this is another Ohio statewide receiver where it was like,
12:34well, yeah, when JSN came out, he would. Yes, everybody's putting respect on his freaking name, but we can all also be
12:41kind and rewind and understand JSN wasn't a guy that was drafted in the top five or 10 in the NFL draft.
12:47He fell all the way into the freaking 20s worm.
12:50And now people want to say like after his rookie season and oh, he's a bust and then he comes out and
12:57he has a better sophomore year and then he blows the freaking top off in his third season.
13:03It's like, oh yeah. Well, now we know JSN is good.
13:06But where was everybody then? Where was everybody during that draft season and saying, oh, well, we don't even know because I'm
13:13old enough and we've been around here long enough worm.
13:16JSN is only a slot wide receiver. He can't play outside.
13:19He's not really fast. He can't stretch a wide.
13:22He can't stretch a defense and be a deep threat.
13:25I'm old enough to have lived through all those narratives.
13:28And I know you are as well. We're we have seen enough of narrative street over years and years and years to understand it is BS.
13:36It is wrong. It is idiotic. And I'm not playing this game with Carnell Tate.
13:41Any way, shape, form or fashion. He's good. I'm drafting him.
13:44Plans can be a maybe for people with chronic migraine.
13:4715 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more.
13:51Botox on a botulinum toxin A prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine.
13:55It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month.
13:59It prevents on average eight to nine headache days a month versus six to seven for placebo.
14:04Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Botox effects may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms.
14:10Alert your doctor right away as trouble swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.
14:16Those with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.
14:19Side effects may include allergic reactions like rash, breathing problems, dizziness, neck and injection site pain, and headache.
14:25Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions like ALS, myasthenia gravis,
14:32or Lambert-Eaton syndrome, and medicines like botulinum toxins, which may increase the risk of serious side effects.

16:07Just quickly, where is he actually ranked for you amongst receivers?
16:10Because he's actually 30th right now, and a lot of the names ahead of him I do also like.
16:16I like Christian Watson, DJ Moore, or Roma Dunzey are the three names right ahead of him.
16:21I like those guys all at cost, but I look behind Carnell Tate.
16:25I'm like Marvin Harrison Jr. in this offense, Alec Pierce with the injury, Brian Thomas Jr.
16:30we know what went on there. The guys behind, I'm like, Tate's the last guy that I'm going to feel really excited about.
16:37There are names that I'm interested in later, of course, but Tate's at that 30th spot as a guy that I'm excited
16:44about, and then some of the people ahead of him.
16:47Where is he actually ranked for you? I've got him at wide receiver 28 or 29, depending on the day, but I
16:54think the conversation starts for Carnell Tate. It's high of the bull case for him.
16:58I think it starts at low end wide receiver too.
17:01If somebody were to tell me they have him at wide receiver 21, 20-ish, in the same realm as a Luther Burden,
17:08I'm not going to tell you that's wrong. I think the upside is definitely there, but you don't have to draft him
17:15there to get him, which is really nice. A quick note for everybody.

17:47Guys, we've got two more receivers here. Debro, Jordan Tyson, the other first-rounder here.
17:51Wide receiver 38, overall 87th. Actually, the last two have been updated.
17:55Yes, he is still wide receiver 38 here. That one is still correct.
17:59Sandwiched between Chris Godwin and Michael Pittman Jr. Why is Tyson on this list for you?
18:03Because I've got him above consensus, and I'm going to keep drafting him.
18:07I'm not telling you that I was the most emphatic Jordan Tyson lover during the pre-draft process and stuff.
18:13There are holes and parts of his game that he needs to improve on, but much like a Stevie Johnson or a
18:20Brandon Iyuk of yesteryear, before all the things that Brandon Iyuk is doing right now, they were not the most polished route
18:27runners coming out of college, and they hit the ground running.
18:30And I think depending on, like, if we truly believe Kellen Moore is a sharp play caller and a sharp coach, I
18:37think you should at this point, then he's going to put Tyson in the best way, in the best position to sit
18:43here and maximize his skill set, what he does.
18:46And then we got it down to an offensive environment conversation and contextually, like, who he is as a player.
18:52And I think looking at, if we think Tyler Shuck can take a step in his second season, which I think everybody
18:59should be believing, then you should be investing in Jordan Tyson.
19:02Like, I have him at wide receiver 31 right now in my rankings.
19:06I think he should be viewed as a strong wide receiver three with upside.
19:11He's practicing in full right now to open a camp.
19:14I just saw those posts earlier today. And so for a player that over his final two collegiate seasons was 60th and
19:2111th in yards per route run, 12th and 15th in receiving grade, as well as this doesn't get brought up enough in
19:27the conversation worm about the volume that Jordan Tyson could see as the number two option in the Saints passing attack.
19:34I want everybody to also understand when the Saints were humming to close last year in weeks 12 through 18, and we
19:40saw Tyler Shuck really kind of breaking out in his rookie season in weeks 12 through 18, we're discussing a New Orleans
19:47passing attack that I don't think everybody realizes was 5th in neutral passing rate and 11th in pass rate over expectation.
19:54So quietly, if they run that back this year with more weapons for Tyler Shuckworm, this offense could be top 10 in passing rate and passing volume.
20:02And if they do that, dude, Jordan Tyson is a candidate for maybe 120 plus targets in his rookie season.
20:08As crazy as that sounds, man. Where do you think the offense is going to rank this season?
20:13Like just 1 to 32? I'm not talking about like passing rate, just like overall in terms of like how they score and those sorts of opportunities.
20:22Where do you think it's going to rank? Like middle of the pack?
20:26High middle of the pack? High middle of the pack.
20:29I think like top 15 with the possibility to get into the top 10, top 12.
20:34Remind me, would Jordan Tyson have been your wide receiver one in this class if he was fully healthy and none of the injury stuff was an issue?
20:42No. It was Cornell Tate. It was Cornell Tate with a bullet like the entirety of the way.
20:48Okay. Yeah. I like Tyson a lot. I understand folks who are like, you know, with the injury history, we haven't seen it at the NFL.
20:56Maybe they're not totally bought into Shuck in the way you are.
20:59I get that, but it does feel like if you're talking upside and where he's going in the draft, I'm interested in upside.
21:06Like, am I going to take Michael Pittman Jr.
21:09over him who's ranked right next to him? Like, I sure don't think so.
21:13I like, and that's not a knock on Pittman, the player.
21:17I just like, I feel like the upside case.
21:20And then you build in like, Olave has his own injury history.
21:23So now if Tyson stays healthy and Olave doesn't, now there's like real significant volume upside here.
21:28So even on top of what you're already describing.
21:31So yeah, I'm with you on this one as well.
21:34Even though the downside case feels a little stronger than some of the other two.
21:39Yeah, I just look at where he's going in drafts and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
21:45It's like, really we're drafting DK Metcalf, Marvin Harrison Jr., Brian Thomas, Roma Dunze, even Jamison Williams ahead of Jordan Tyson.
21:51Like, JMO didn't really do anything until you didn't have Sam Laporta last year in the lineup.
21:56Like, JMO was just their field stretcher. So like, all these different guys that are still in that like, wide receiver three territory.
22:03It's like, we're really doing this? Like, are we still going to be doing this in another week or two of camp worm?
22:10When, if Tyson is healthy and we're getting nothing but good reports, I think Tyson will hop in an ADP as well.
22:17So like, if you're out there doing early best ball drafts, if you're like, you got early redrafts right now that you're
22:24doing, then you need to scoop up the value right now.
22:27Because I think this value could also not fully disappear because I think there's a cap to the ceiling of where he goes.
22:34But versus all these other guys, like him versus DK Metcalf isn't even a conversation for me.
22:39It's also basically never a bad idea to invest in highly drafted rookie receivers.
22:44Yes. As we've already talked about here. It almost always, I mean, I don't want to say literally 100% of the time,
22:50but like, it is one of the strongest investments you can make is rookie receivers, especially first round receivers.
22:56There are exceptions, but yeah, it's just a strong bet to make over a boring bet.
23:01Like the guys that are going around here. We've got one more, not a first rounder, Denzel Boston, wide receiver 61, overall 158.
23:08So a lot further down the list than these other three names we've talked about.
23:13Boston is a target for you. Why? Because, and I want to be very clear about this.
23:18I easily could have put Casey Concepcion on this list and not batted an eye.
23:23I mean, I loved him through the entire pre-draft process.
23:26He was my wide receiver too, post-draft. But the reason that I wanted to help him I will actually say, I was
23:32surprised that when you picked a Browns receiver, it wasn't.
23:35So the reason I'm, I'm picking Boston again, I want to be very, very pointed with this.
23:41Why I put Denzel Boston and I could have made a case for either one of these Browns receivers.
23:46Go draft them both. Honestly, in my perfect draft article, I'm telling you to draft both of them and see how this works out.
23:54The reason I want to highlight Denzel Boston here, that worm is the discrepancy and the difference and the chasm between Casey
24:00Concepcion and Denzel Boston and where they go in drafts.
24:04I feel like it's wrong, man. Like Denzel Boston, where everybody is saying collectively and I'm not against it totally is that
24:10Casey Concepcion will be the clear wide receiver one in the Browns passing attack.
24:15And I just like, it could be a lot closer and I'm willing to take the arbitrage bet for Denzel Boston closing
24:21that gap or maybe being the wide receiver one over Casey Concepcion because as much as I love Casey Concepcion in the
24:28entire pre-draft process and post-draft, I love Denzel Boston just as much, dude.
24:32Like he was like right there with Casey Concepcion during the entire pre-draft process and for a player that again, going back
24:39to crap narrative street, everybody's like, oh, he's a big hulking ex but he's too slow.
24:44Oh, he can't separate. If you think Denzel Boston cannot separate, I'm just going to straight up say that you didn't watch
24:50his film and you are full of crap. Like straight up.
24:54People did not watch him because all the way littered through his film is high-end route running, the ability to be a three-level threat.
25:01The guy is a ball winner at the catch point amongst all FPS wide receivers with a minimum of 10 contested targets
25:08last year, fifth in contested catch rate, eighth in PFF receiving grade.
25:11He was 79th or higher percentile wise in college dominator and collegiate target share.
25:16He's got good hands and again, going that with all the narratives, saying he is too slow as a four or five wide receiver is absolutely ridiculous.
25:24I can name off four or five wide receiver after four or five speed wide receiver year after year after year, Drake
25:31London, Tedro McMillan, Cooper Cup, DeAndre Hopkins, all of these different guys where they got the label of being big and slow.
25:37It was wrong then and it is wrong now.
25:40So the reason I want to highlight Boston is because of that ADP gap that I think really should not exist and
25:47saying if we're all as a consortium wrong and it's not Casey Concepcion as their wide receiver one, then you need to
25:54be drafting more Denzel Boston if not just draft both of them on your teams this year.
25:59It feels to me like Boston is sort of the, where he's going in drafts right now this could change.
26:05Where he's going in drafts right now feels like the ideal example of if your league settings in your draft room allow
26:12you to, don't draft a kicker, draft Boston with your last pick and then see who you want to drop.
26:18Yes, but like if you're allowed to do that, don't.
26:21Use those spots on a guy like Boston who might blow up this preseason and say, oh, he is as good as
26:28Debro was saying compared to Concepcion and we're burying Jerry Judy so if you want to have a guy maybe he is the one.
26:35Take those swings with a guy who's going this late because you might look at his ADP and say, well, especially in
26:42like, maybe not in an industry league but in a more like home league kind of standard setting, you could probably say
26:48in a lot of leagues he's not going to get drafted so he'll just be a preferred waiver wire pickup.
26:55Don't do that. Go get him on your roster now so when he does blow up you have him already and you
27:01can make that decision on kicker later on you know, when you need to to set your lineups if you are, you
27:08know, are in a league with kickers. The other thing that I think is hilarious here and just 100 foot view here,
27:15Worm, do you find it also curious and kind of funny that Casey Concepcion and Denzel Boston are getting the knock based
27:21off of the quarterback play possibly for Cleveland but Harold Fannin Jr.
27:25isn't having to suffer any of that? Everybody's like, oh, Harold Fannin Jr.
27:29will be awesome. Don't, no worries, no shade, he'll be great.
27:33Nature of tight ends, just the tight end position or the fact that we've seen him do it with a bad quarterback
27:39situation and we haven't seen it yet from the other two at the NFL level.
27:44But all of that grace and faith but then people have no faith at all that Casey Concepcion and Denzel Boston can
27:51be that kind of guy and here's the other thing that plays devil's advocate here.
27:55I have no faith in Deshaun Watson so you will not hear any positive Deshaun Watson takes out of me.
28:01He's garbage, can't wait till he's out of the NFL, forget him, off into the ether with you.
28:07What if Shadur Sanders plays good football this year, worm?
28:10What if? I don't know how much I expect that but it is an interesting what if.
28:15So we're still here. We're still here and we're still kicking.
28:18I did want to ask you quickly just because they're close to each other in the rankings.
28:24Denzel Boston or Trey Harris who would you rather draft this year with your last pick?
28:28I hate that you're doing this to me. I mean the Chargers are obviously the more appealing offensive environment although I will
28:35say like obviously I'm not going to compare him to Mike McDaniel.
28:39I do think Todd Munkin for as weird of a choice as he is for a head coach at his age and
28:46experience while having never done it before I think he is a really good offensive play designer caller.
28:51So like again the quarterback situation is very different but like I do think both have good play callers this year and you're going to take Boston.
28:59I'm taking Boston and I'm saying this also with my ranks and stuff.
29:03I have Boston at wide receiver 49 I have Trey Harris at wide receiver 57 I'm also kind of just throwing my
29:10hands up like I'm struggling big time with this Chargers offense like what to do how it's going to sift out like
29:17the other thing about Trey Harris dude it's like I don't know who's going to play in two wide receiver sets.
29:23Is it a rotation? Do they go green you know light and then rotate a bunch of guys?
29:29Is it QJ and Trey Harris in two wide receiver sets?
29:32Is it QJ and Lad McConkie? Do they again do they rotate it?
29:36Like so I'm kind of throwing my hands up in the air like with Trey Harris and the LAC passing attack but
29:43I know one thing's for sure like I think Denzel Boston's going to be freaking good and I think he's going to play in two wide receiver sets.
29:51We'll go ahead and wrap things up there thanks everyone for checking out this shorter episode of Must Draft Rookies to help you win your league in 2026.
