There are suddenly a ton of fantasy options on this team. Who is your favorite draft value among Lindsay (115.3 ADP), Drew Lock (128.6), Noah Fant (125.7), and Jerry Jeudy (114.6)?
Dalton: I’ll take Fant, who has metrics in the 96th percentile or above in the 40, Speed Score, Burst Score, Agility Score, and Catch Radius while dominating in college and breaking out before age 20. He had the second-most yards per catch among tight ends last year when he also forced as many missed tackles as Zach Ertz on 48 fewer receptions while finishing with one of the five best yards per target marks by a rookie TE since 2007. Jeudy landed in a poor spot for his fantasy value.
Andy: It’s easy to make a case for Lock as a potential breakout player, but, even if he makes incredible progress, it’s difficult to imagine him actually finishing as a starting-quality fantasy QB in leagues of standard size. He’s just a superflex special. To me, Fant is the guy with the clearest path to finishing as a top-10 option at his position. As Dalton mentioned, Fant is basically a superhero-level athlete who dominated at the collegiate level. A few additional red-zone looks could easily make him an every-week fantasy play.
