Baller Trust Exercise + It’s Mailbag Time!

Yeah, he's not going away. And look at what, I mean, it wasn't, it wasn't just, oh, they started going to him more. He was on the field more. Right. They said he is now a. Well, Everett was injured them. For some of it, not for all of it. Everett got back. Yeah, Everett got back at the end. Yeah, Everett got back at the end. And, you know, if you look at the snap percentages for Higby, here's the beginning of the year, 51%, 34%.

44%, 56, 58. It stays like that the whole year until the last five weeks. 91, 97, 85, 89, 96%. He became one of the cogs, one of the core pieces of the offense. If he ends up next year being on the field 90 plus percent, I think he's going to be great for fantasy. That's the question that we're asking is, will he be pretty much every down player or not? It's interesting because he's been in the league for four years. Yeah.

So I think he will be one of the more interesting late round. I mean, your consequence for being wrong if he's in the double-digit rounds is not great. So he's a player that has shown you upside, but probably won't cost you a lot like Jason was saying. So why not take the shot? Yeah, he's the Mark Andrews Darren Waller type from this past year. Yeah, it'd be nice to see them go back to that. Fourth round pick.

Four years in the league has the better contract situation, obviously, than Gerald Everett does. Everett is on his way out. Right. YouTube question, Jeff, Jarrett, how many bench spots are too many? Hmm. How many bench spots are too many? Well, that's going to depend on your league type. Obviously, a dynasty versus. Let's go to redraft. Okay. Redraft too many is seven. Okay. I'm happy with five or six. Assuming a 12, you know.

a 12 team league. Yeah, you basically want a situation where your waiver wire is not bare, but your waiver wire is also not, you know, filled with top tier options. You know, you need that balance where you're, you know, people aren't able to hold players indefinitely and not make decisions. So I like five or six, I would say. Yeah, I would say six, but I also like a starting roster of either an extra flex or an extra.

Super flex. So you need more players. Yes. Two flex as a six bench is really nice. Yeah. All right. Question from Mike Luther on Facebook Dynasty question. Who flew under the radar that you think will make a leap this year? Is it someone like Nick Heel Harry or Hunter Renfro? Whose face popped into my head when I started picturing Tom Brady in Raiders uniform. You know, Hunter Renfro for a couple of years there potentially.

This is specific for Dynasty? Yes. I mean, we've talked about Devin Singletary ad nauseum. He's not completely under the radar, but I still think... He's blipping on the radar. Yeah, he's on the outskirts. If you want to go super deep, like in Akeel Harry, someone that lost their first season, I still think Andy Isabella has a chance. Sure. Never got on the field, which was extremely disappointing. But when he did get on the field...

All those jet sweeps. Those jet sweeps were awesome. Would you consider Hollywood Brown under the radar right now? He's someone that I don't think has peaked value-wise, so a little bit. Is Terry McLaurin under the radar? No. Definitely not. I don't think he's under the radar. So I think both those guys, Hollywood Brown and Terry McLaurin, I think both players are not under the radar. But both players, I think you can get cheaper than what their actual value.

will be. So I would throw out under the radar at the tight end position, Jay Sternberger for Green Bay. Yes, love it. I bet you can still get him pretty cheap. Irv Smith for Minnesota, I mean, that's, I think he's even, probably even a deeper stash than Jay Sternberger because Kyle Rudolph is still in town. But Irv Smith did flash a little bit when he was on the field. Diggs was traded? Yeah. Yeah, there you go. If Diggs is traded, then, uh, then what is B.C becomes interesting as well.

uh, Darius, breaking news. Like Stefan Diggs just traded? Oh, did he get treated? Nope. Jordan Reed is now out of the concussion protocol. Oh, no way. No way. Oh my goodness. He was in the protocol for six months after suffering the hit in preseason. His release is also imminent. Yeah. Please nobody resign him. They probably, man. 29 years old.

They probably have to get him out. If he wants to play, he will have somebody give him the opportunity to play. Yeah, someone will give him a shot because he's a great player. But I don't, so I'm just, this is just an hypothesis because I don't know exactly how it works. But I'm curious if they have to get him out of the concussion protocol before they can cut him or then you have like, yeah, you're fine. See you later. Well, is there injury severance pay that becomes a factor?

It's a good question, but just insane timing on that breaking in the middle of the show. We talked about it.
