Summary
Host Ian Hartitz breaks down the fantasy football value of Chargers WRs Keenan Allen and Mike Williams ahead of the 2021 season. Allen has been anyone's idea of an elite wide receiver ever since erasing his early-career injury prone label. Williams has also largely been fantastic when given the opportunity; the problem has been the lack of a true featured role over the years. Ian goes through the rest of the Chargers' wide receiver room before noting that Justin Herbert could have an even better encore with an improved offensive line. The podcast concludes with Ian's specific ranking for Allen and Williams along with clarification that Drew Lock is in fact not a roller-derby prodigy.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the PFF Fancy football podcast. I'm your host Ian Harditz and today we continue our fantasy |
| 0:13.5 | files series with a look at the Los Angeles Chargers passing game. I want to focus on the receivers here |
| 0:19.0 | in this episode. We'll get to that guy Justin Herbert, plenty of his own pod at a later date. So |
| 0:24.0 | I want to just start off by saying like my goodness, this wide receiver room is legit. |
| 0:28.5 | Honestly, the whole Chargers roster in recent years is almost always all around legit, |
| 0:34.4 | popular, you know, preseason. I don't even want to say super bowl pick, but people can at least |
| 0:39.1 | wrap their minds around them being a contender each and every year at in game, in game, |
| 0:44.5 | like game management, injury luck, whatever it is, they just never seem to really fulfill |
| 0:49.0 | expectations. So fingers crossed, you know, the defense, we get a healthy German James Joey Boasa, |
| 0:54.8 | all those guys doing their thing because on offense, man, they look as good as ever. |
| 0:59.2 | And that's no disrespect to the brothers or anything. I just mean from a purr, pure personnel |
| 1:03.9 | standpoint, I mean, just wide receiver room is loaded. Obviously the headliner, Kenan Allen, |
| 1:09.8 | I mean, the production he has put up since being dubbed injury prone, which is another reason why |
| 1:14.6 | if you listen to his podcast, I harp plenty on why our injury analysis is just so misguided |
| 1:20.8 | during the off season, you know, usually it's just kind of trolls throwing out arbitrary thresholds. |
| 1:26.0 | This guy was her last year, he's going to be heard again. We use that for Joe Mixon and Chris |
| 1:29.6 | Carson, not for, you know, Christian McAfry or Safe Wan Barkley, you know, people just say it's |
| 1:34.0 | different this and that, whatever. Anyway, this was a reality for Kenan Allen. For all you Gen Z |
| 1:39.4 | listeners out there that maybe don't remember the early career of Kenan Allen, he comes out on a |
| 1:44.3 | tear as a rookie has another good follow up year. But after that, you only played nine games in |
| 1:49.7 | 2015 and 2016 combined 2016 was particularly sad. I believe he suffered a 20 ACL after having like |
| 1:56.8 | six catches for 63 yards. That was a season long line. Pretty sure all that came in the first half. |
