Team, it’s been too long since we last spoke. Since then the boy has gotten married, gotten done with grad school, and been big boolin. It’s always a treat to put this together every year and I hope I’m not catching y’all after you’ve already done your draft bc if so your team will probably stink if you didn’t have this. I try and always write this one on a travel day and I figured no better day to do this than when I’m leaving beautiful Natchez, MS. Since this is fantasy football, before we dive into this go ahead and turn on the GOT theme song in the background. Queue up the Gondor song from LOTR afterwards. The long night is ending. Football is back. (Also I’m not a communist so these rankings are for PPR). Also this is all done from memory which leads to some fun.
1. JJETTA
He still that guy. Idc about the qb situation. Jjetta is the best wr in the league and one of the best players. And he’s sick.
2. GLASS BONES AND PAPER SKIN MCCAFFREY
He hasn’t been hurt in a couple years so he’s been the best player in fantasy. If he doesn’t get hurt then that’ll probably be the case again this year.
3. JAMARR CHASE
This boy cold. The bengals gonna bounce back and be rlly good this year imo. Chase should have a huge season. Or he could suck.
4. BIJAN MUSTARD
Falcons should be less ass this year than they have in the past few years. Competent qb and play calling should get Bijan the ball a lot. I’m tryna watch this man do lots of spin moves in the red and black.
5. TYREEK
This man is a total scumbag but he’s so fast. Up until the weather turns and the phins have to go on the road this guy is as good as they come.
6. SAQUON
Saquon deez nutz. Green gonna look good on this man. The Eagles are either gonna be rlly good or horrible this year and I think a lot of that is on this man’s enormous shoulders.
7. JOSH JACOBS
Same faces new places. Josh Jacobs was the only good player on the raiders last year besides Te and Mad Max and now that he’s in a competent offense that had Aaron Jones do alright the past couple years I think Jacobs will have a really good season. Who knows tho
8. AJ BROWN
Dude is a total head case but he’s really good. As long as Jalen Hurts doesn’t forget how to throw the ball (unfortunately highly possible) AJ Brown will eat this year.
9. PUKA
This man is a catch machine. In a PPR league he’ll wrack up so many catches that he’ll probably be a 16 point a week guy at least. You heard it here first
10. DEVANTE ADAMS
It looks like the raiders are really gonna do the Gardner Minshew thing so that’s gonna be not great for Te. Maybe he’ll get traded but yeah this is probably gonna be a below average season for his standards but still better than so many other guys in the league.
11. MEATHEAD KELCE
Until someone knocks him off he’s still the best TE in the game and he’s got the best QB throwing him the ball. That all bodes well for another big year for Killa Trav.
12. BREECE HALL
He good. Jets are trash and I think Rodgers is washed washed (I’m sorry jets fans fr). Cool Breeze Hall is a very good rb tho. Should be a good year for the man
13. THE KING
I honestly think Derrick Henry is about to have the second best season of his career. Baltimore’s offense suits him well and ya he’s probably not gonna get 2k yards but he’s gonna score a lot of touchdowns. Should be fun
14. NICK CHUBB
Hopefully his leg isn’t still bent the wrong way. If that’s fixed then watch out for this guy.
15. AMON RA ST BROWN
What a mouthful of a name. He seems like a cool guy tho based on the Netflix show but also like crazy work ethic. His dad is kinda whack but Amon Ra is probably gonna have an awesome season. Lotta catches.
16. WADDLE
🐧🐧🐧 give this man the ball and watch out. He gonna make a lot of house calls this year as long as he stays healthy. Maybe he even takes over for Tyreek? Guess we’ll have to see
17. SMITTY
I love this man so much. I would take a bullet for him no cap. And now that he’s paid he’s gonna be even more of a baller. I also drove through Amite, LA the other day to pay my respects and got a good vibe about this season for him.
18. LAMAR
Oh yeah. It’s QB time. And why not roll with the reigning MVP. Getting Derrick Henry in the backfield with him should lead to more running opportunities for him and maybe he’ll be able to hit intermediate routes this year. Also he’s boys with Kodak Black. That rocks
19. SAM LAPORTA
Remember last year when this guy just spawned onto the lions roster in week 5 and caught 4 touchdowns? That was crazy and you cannot convince me he existed before then. TE2 this year for sure.
20. DEEBO
I’m always rlly high on Deebo and it’s kinda hit or miss but last year was a miss except one week he had like 50 points. I think he gets back to being sick this year and rips off a lot of points.
21. BRob
Commies should be much improved this year and BRob is probably the best player on this offense. Hopefully they feed him the rock.
22. JAYDEN DANIELS
Uh oh. Rookie qb alert. This is either boom or bust. I think he’s gonna be sick but he also could get crumpled like he did in a few games last year. If he can stay healthy he’s gonna be so awesome.
23. GIBBSY
My personal friend Jahmyr Gibbs. If he can get past this hammy injury I think he’ll have an excellent season. He was really good last year but he’s still gotta deal with David Montgomery being a touchdown vulture. I think Gibbs has better numbers this year than last tho and he was awesome last year.
24. TANK DELL
This man got shot in the offseason. Look for big things this year👍.
25. BROCK BOWERS
This guy is just a football player and the raiders are gonna force feed him the ball. He and Adams are the only competent offensive players on that team and they’ll show it this year.
26. JOSH ALLEN
Tall. Looks good in shorts. Rocket arm. Nobody circles the wagons like the Buffalo bills. Maybe this is the year he wins MVP? Time will tell
27. JOE MIXON
Same faces new places. This guy is also a scumbag. Good football player tho. Houston should be very good this year and I think he’ll be a big part of that.
28. GREG KITTLE
This is probably the niners last shot to win a title with this group and he’s the heartbeat of that team. Hes gonna leave it all out there this year and should be TE4 pretty easily.
29. AMARI COOPER
He still that boy. Hes also like 30 I’m pretty sure so not even that old. Browns will be getting him the ball a lot and I think it’ll pay off.
30. PROJECT PAT
What more can you say about this guy? He won a championship having Marquez Valdes Scantling as his best wr. That along should be worth 100 points.
31. KYLE PITTS
This is the year. Kyle Pitts has improved so much under this new offense. He’s focused. He’s having fun. Honestly if this guy sucks this year then he can officially go down as the worst draft pick of all time.
32. TUA
Expect us.
33. Calvin Ridley?
Maybe this will work out in TN?
34. TRAVIS ETTIENE
Damn I completely forgot the AFC south exists. He should be way higher but I don’t wanna remember this
35. JONATHAN TAYLOR
See above but I actually don’t think he should be that much higher. This probably is right for him.
36. ALVIN KAMARA?
I feel like he’s kinda been quiet quitting but he’s so fun when he wants to really get after it. he’s also a saint so I wouldn’t mind if he sucked
37. MIKE EVANS
Will be a hall of famer. Why expect him to have any less than 1k yards and 12 touchdowns.
38. THE BEST WR ON THE PACKERS
Can’t remember home boys name but I think he’s #11. I’d give him a shot fr.
39. CEEDEE LAMB
Damn I completely forgot he existed til just now when I was trying to remember cowboys. This man is so good. My bad CeeDee.
40. JALEN HURTS
My qb. Love this man. Hopefully he can stay healthy this year.
