| 0:00.0 | Talking running back and wide receiver dynasty tears on fantasy football today in five. |
| 0:04.2 | Where will the rookies end up? |
| 0:05.5 | We'll answer that right now. |
| 0:07.8 | Adam Azor and Heath Cummings on this Tuesday morning here. |
| 0:10.2 | This is fantasy football today in five. |
| 0:12.8 | All right, Heath, so you've got your updated dynasty tiers, and everybody can see those on the website. |
| 0:18.1 | Just go to CBSports.com slash fantasy. |
| 0:20.5 | Click on football. |
| 0:21.5 | You'll see the Dynasty Central. |
| 0:23.4 | What do you think about the rookie running backs as we get ready for Najee Harris and Travis ETN and the rest of them to get drafted next week? What tier do you think they're going to mean right now? Christian McCaffrey's in a tier of his own. And then tier two is Barclay and Cook. and you know where are you going to let's say slot in Najee Harris start with him well right like |
| 0:39.5 | right now i I have Jonathan Taylor, DeAndre Swift, J.K. Dobbins, and Cam Acres all in the third tier. And any of those guys, like, with just a month of next year, I could see it as tier two backs. I just, we didn't get quite enough from any of them for me to go to that level yet. |
| 0:56.6 | I feel like Najee Harris, unless he's drafted in the first round by the Atlanta Falcons, is going to probably be a tier four back. |
| 1:05.0 | Because I don't think that the backs in this year's class compare very well to the backs from last year. And I don't think |
| 1:13.6 | there's necessarily any, like I think the way Dave said it on our podcast last week is that there's |
| 1:18.9 | not a perfect back in this class. And there are a couple perfect situations. So that could |
| 1:25.0 | impact things. But I think you look at Harris probably at the top |
| 1:28.4 | of tier four, maybe sneaking into tier three where J.K. Dobbins and Camakers are. I understand |
| 1:35.3 | why McCaffrey is in a tier of his own. Then you have Barclay and Cook ahead of all of last year's |
| 1:40.4 | rookies, and you have them ahead of Alvin Camara. You have them ahead of Alvin Camara. |
| 1:46.1 | Why do they have tier two all by themselves? |
| 1:51.1 | Yeah, Alvin Camara was there, but Drew Brees being gone and the risk that he plays a full season with Taysam Hill kind of hurts him a little bit. |
| 1:53.7 | And Alvin Camara is a little bit older as well. |
