Because his consistency, every game, I mean, he is their passing offense. And they have a good passing offense. I mean, you could make the argument that their wide receiver room has gotten worse. Their number two receiver is gone. Right now, Josh Reynolds is gone, and that was their number two guy. Here's a great question. Would you rather have Amun Ross St. Brown's consistency? or Jamar Chase's explosiveness. Like that's a game theory. Which can you get less of later in the draft? That's how I'm viewing that. And I feel like I can, that's what I kind of fit into. You can, I think you can probably find more explosiveness. Like the very infrequent. Like there's going to be guys who can, who will give you four spike weeks through for a season. Yeah, but you can't, you can't.

58:39 ↗

play them or no win to play them. That might happen in best ball. Yeah, I can agree that you don't know. I'm just saying the consistency of Amin Rae is, I don't think you find that nearly anywhere else. It might be different in, you know, obviously a full PPR. versus sure you know we had a things to remember episode i believe it was a couple years ago it wasn't this last year it was after we did the truth series and digging deep into the numbers and seeing the research on what helps you win championships my thing to remember was that most all wide receivers are inconsistent and the ones that you win championships with are the highest ceiling players the ones that can put up the monstrous crazy points

59:24 ↗

And not that Amon Ra can't have a good weekly output and score two touchdowns in a game, he can. But I, you know, I'm seeing this on my rankings that I've got Amin Ra ahead of Jamar Chase. And I'm questioning if I'm on the clock, who would I really rather have? And I think it's Chase. Okay. Number two. It's a pretty decent year for this guy. CD Lamb of the Dallas Cowboys, who is now put on the NFI list, right? Yeah. Is that the name of the right list? No, it's the, it was a not report. Whatever the one is where he's not doing anything right now because he wants money. Give the man his money. Which has been super. Like, how are you doing with these dynasty guys? You've got them all paid? I can't do anything. No, you haven't accomplished a darn thing. No. CD Lamb, how's that deal? It's not there. Chase got money?

60:13 ↗

Well, Chase is a little different. You're going to get fired. If I were, you're going to get fired. Honestly, Chase, go, go practice. Come on. Yeah. Come on, buddy. You got enough contract left. Yeah, exactly. Hey, but you know what he's not doing? You know what none of your guys are doing? What is that? Getting injured. Hey, yeah, who's doing great things right now? Okay. Who's doing great things right now? Yeah, I got CMC some extra money and look at that. Yeah, but you know who's going to get injured at the start of the season? These guys who haven't been practicing? Oh, the fat thores of the world. Yeah.

60:41 ↗

CD Lambs coming in at number two. Jason's got him at one. Mike and I at number two. Do I really? Well, no, I mean, you know, the stats bear out, but like I view. You're in control of your life. I, I, I still view Tyreek as the player I would take. I feel like you've been talking about Tyreek over CD. They're in the, they're in the, like, they're so close to each other. I don't, you know, I would, I would put CD Lamb in that Tyreek and. CMC category of those. Those are the first three picks in every draft, right? Like is there any draft that you've seen that those aren't the first three? No. 23.9 fancy points per game for him after the buy. The next closest was 17 by Tyreek and Almanra. So it was outrageous. That's an unsustainable heater though. That obviously means number one. Tyree Kill is sitting there 30 years old. He's got some more extra guaranteed money.

61:35 ↗

30 years young. I think he, what did he tweet out? He was 6% body fat. He's 30s. I just, he's unbelievable. It's, it's really 60% body fat. He is the most. I'm not 60% body fat for those not on YouTube going, whoa, I know he jokes about being overweight, but this guy's. Imagine like if you never watch on YouTube, you never see you before. And you say that. What mental. transformation happened in their mind. Oh, man. On what had what they thought you were. I became a South Park character. You know, it's like, you did. You, you, you have exploded. Yeah. Um, no, you're, you got to be like 50, 52. Yeah, I'm under 60 now. 60%. 60%. Uh, Tyreek is, Tyreek's unstoppable. He's unguardable. Uh, the offense runs through him. He's everything you want.

62:29 ↗

consistency wise, 1,800 receiving yards. I mean, you can't even stop him from having kids. I mean, you can't stop him from doing anything. Yeah, I mean, I love me some C.D. Lamb. Obviously, the numbers are bearing out that he has a finish ahead of of Tyreek. But Tyreek physically is truly unstoppable. I don't think you can scheme for him. I don't think there's a thing a defense can do. You can't double cover him. He has an elite trait that is unreplicatable. Good word. His ability to just burst out of a cannon in any direction at any point in time. There's just nothing you can do to really stop Tyreek. And so. Yeah. Safe. Very safe. And that's why you said you'd. I feel like he is safer. Despite the age, he's safer than CD Lamb to me. And apparently CMC to you right now. Yeah, right now with a calf problem for CMC. Okay. All right. We did it. We counted them down.

Anybody? Running back rankings on Thursday, 2311. We got our tips and tricks episode next week and next week. The my guys. The my guys are happening. Yep, yep. I'm going to knock one out of the park again. I got another Mike Evans on the way. I got two locked. I mean, not Mike Evans. It's another. Right. Yeah. It's this year's Mike Evans. So you have two locks? I got two locks. I got two and a half locked. I don't think that's a lock, Andy. I got two. I'm locked at two. Okay. All right. All right. And we can trade. I think I am going to mention for the first time a couple of finalists before I reveal the my guys this year. Okay. I like that. I think a couple. Just get a little credit.
