We have arrived. The NFL season has arrived, but some of these fantasy drafts are happening

0:15.4

Saturday night, Sunday night, so I wanted to drop a show. So I thought, hey, let's drop

0:19.2

a show Saturday with one final piece of advice. Once you have your big three wide receiver

0:26.1

set, could be Devon Tay Adams, Amari Cooper, Tyler Lockett, could be Stefan Diggs,

0:34.3

CD Lam, Robert Woods. At that point, I want you to lean second year wide receivers because

0:41.1

we're shooting for upside, upside wins championships and statistically wide receivers improve

0:45.6

their production most from year one to year two. Keep this in mind. This is why we love

0:51.5

Brandon I. U.K., this is why we love T Higgins. This is why I don't love the stealer situation,

0:57.8

but I want Chase Claypool because I'm chasing that rainbow. He's a big athletic, proper

1:35.8

to complete your starting lineup, JJ Zacharyson recommends Michael Pittman. Just go down the

1:41.3

list. I'm in very deep dynasty leagues. I keep finding Devon Duvernay available. Rashad

1:46.5

Bateman's going to miss the first three weeks. And Marquis Brown has impracticed at all

1:51.1

in the month of August. Devon Duvernay is going to be starting in three receiver sets.

1:55.0

So all the way up and down the wide receiver player pool. I'm zeroing in on those second

2:01.9

year wide receivers from CDLAM to T Higgins to Brandon I Yook from Jerry Judy to LaViscous

Shenalt to Marquez Callaway. Marquez Callaway wasn't drafted, but he's going to be the number
