| 0:00.0 | Here's an early list of 2022 breakouts from Heath Cummings right now on Fantasy Football |
| 0:08.0 | today in five. |
| 0:09.5 | And we've got a lot of young players on the list, obviously, including second year quarterback, |
| 0:14.1 | Justin Fields. |
| 0:15.1 | That's your QB breakout, Heath. |
| 0:17.0 | Break it down. |
| 0:18.5 | Yeah, I think that this could be Fields fields it could be lawrence it could be lance |
| 0:22.3 | depending on who you like the most the thing that i like about fields is i think he has more |
| 0:27.3 | combined upside as both a rusher and a passer than does lance or lawrence i think he could |
| 0:33.9 | run almost as well if not as well as tray lance in the nfl and i think he can throw almost as well if if not as well as Trey Lance in the NFL. And I think he can throw almost as well, if not as well as Trevor Lawrence. Now, I would like it a lot more if they would go get him a little bit of help, which they've not done a very good job of. But there are still a couple of wide receivers who I think could help on the free agent market. And I think the bears are just waiting out for the cheap ones. |

| 0:58.5 | So if they go get a wide receiver early in round two or if they add somebody else, I'm |
| 1:02.3 | going to feel even better about this. |
| 1:03.9 | So it seems to be your favorite year two quarterback. |
| 1:07.1 | He is my favorite year two quarterback because i think he's really in my opinion |
| 1:11.9 | the only one that could actually be a good dual threat quarterback this year i think if |
| 1:16.5 | tray lance could be jalen hurts but right okay and then how about uh derrick car or or fields i think |
| 1:24.5 | that just is like i would like to draft Derek Carr and Fields. |
| 1:28.1 | I think there's a lot more upside for Justin Fields. |
| 1:31.4 | But if you're looking at it from a projection standpoint, I would project |
| 1:34.0 | Carr to score more points. |
| 1:35.3 | I would definitely rather have Carr in a 2QB league over Fields. |
