0:00When I piece all this together, talented
0:02player, good draft capital, flashing a
0:04massive way early part of last year. And
0:07it wasn't just his fantasy points per
0:08game, his receiving yards per game, 89.
0:11That's a mid-range wide receiver one.
0:12Receptions per game, five. That's a
0:14mid-range wide receiver two. Targets per
0:16game, 7.6. That's a That's a high-end
0:19wide receiver two. Target share, 23%.
0:22That's a low-end wide receiver one if we
0:23compare to historical [music] players.
0:25So, like really the underlying data did
0:27stack up like with the fantasy points
0:29that we saw. Looking with Mike Evans
0:32gone and Baker Mayfield healthy,
0:34man, and I look at Igbuka, Theo, and he

0:39player,
0:40he's got enough size, he's thick enough,
0:43he's got enough height to really turn
0:45into a guy that can honestly, with Evans
0:46gone, be used more in the red zone. Can
