| 0:00.0 | Free agency winners and losers in the fantasy realm right now on FFT Express. |
| 0:09.5 | Okay, we're sorry, Dave, I'm all over the place. |
| 0:12.9 | We've got, you know, we've got to talk about the Steelers backfield, the Panthers backfield, |
| 0:16.2 | Evan Ingram to the Broncos. |
| 0:17.3 | That's some new news since the last time we spoke, but we're some winners for you so far in free agency. |
| 0:22.5 | Let's just start. I don't know if this is the big winner, but Evan Ingram going to Denver, I don't like it. I love it. |
| 0:28.9 | I think it's a great fit for the Broncos. Real opportunity for Evan Engram to be the number two target getter in that offense. |
| 0:35.3 | Do you know that the number two target getter in that offense last year was |
| 0:38.5 | Javante Williams? |
| 0:39.9 | How terrible is that for Denver? |
| 0:42.6 | So now they've got a wide receiver that plays tight end, a mismatch piece, a Joker piece, |
| 0:48.1 | if you will, that Sean Peyton's been looking for. |
| 0:50.7 | I think the combination of the play designing and play calling of Sean |
| 0:55.7 | Peyton with the short area throws that Bo Nix has made a lot of, at least in the last |
| 1:01.2 | year, as Adi, was real low. We talked about that on the main show. Combined with where |
| 1:05.0 | Evan Engram's been deployed over the last three seasons, which is as a short area target and then after the catch |
| 1:12.2 | guy, I think it's a great fit all the way around. He's a top 10 fantasy tight end for me. |
| 1:17.1 | And one of two tight ends that I'm going to target if I don't get one of the first five, |
| 1:22.5 | maybe six tight ends that are going to be consensus on draft day. So I'm excited for him. Can I name another player at a different position that I am as excited about or more excited about? I think I can. Two wide receivers that won. And this is just overall in free agency, Adam. I'm taking you in a different direction. Yeah, yeah. Where you took me. J.S.N. in Seattle, Devante Adams in L.A. with the Rams. I think that both of them will get a lot of targets. J.S.N. certainly should get a ton of them. Probably will average more targets per game than Devante Adams. That's an offense. Even with Sam Darnold there, I know, think what you will about Sam Darnold. he can get JSN the ball. And I think JSN's going to get the ball a lot. I think a 100 catch season cannot be ruled out without question for Jackson Smith and Jigba. I've got him as a top 15 wide receiver and full PPR as we sit here now. But you could see him moving up a little bit. And as long as Seattle doesn't make a big splash of wide receiver, I think JSN could be really, really good. Remember last year, he averaged 14.9 ppr points per game. That was with D.K. Metcalf. That was with Tyler Locke. And that was with Gino Smith. But it is something to keep an eye on with JSN. And then Devante Adams is just a terrific fit. |
| 2:35.0 | We've talked about them on the main show a bunch, |
| 2:36.5 | so I'll be really brief here. Should be around eight targets per game. That would be low for Devante Adams over the course of his career, but this is another situation where the play designs are great, the coaching is great. Pugna Kua is going to be the number one, so Devante Adams won't get coverage like a number one, |
| 2:50.2 | and they do have a lot of concentrated targets in that offense. |
