It's not like it's not like people need to race out there and grab Jameis Winston in anything other than a Super Flex League.
Um I'm pretty, I'm pretty intrigued by what we just saw from Cedric Tillman.
That was a ton of targets.
Um That was a lot of action for him.
He was clearly the guy who steps into, you know, a lot of those targets that would have gone to Amari Cooper.
Um So he's a, he's a big winner in fantasy terms, Jame just a f obviously fundamentally different quarterback from Deshaun Watson.
I mean, Jamis is a guy who like for his career has an A dot Well over 10 yards, right?
Like Jame is going downfield, Jame is taking shots.
Uh I did have somebody asked me a question.
I'm sorry, I can't remember who it was, but it was on Twitter.
I was like, is Cedric Tillman like, you know, Bud like Nico Collins and I'm like, hm and I, I'm sure they mean by like a guy that was good on film but was never productive because of the situation.
I think he's definitely an ex receiver.
I think Nico is more of like the smooth separation type.
Whereas I think Cedric Tillman is kind of in that like Courtland Sutton bucket of extra receivers.
But shoot if you're picking up like a Courtland Sutton type of player off Wavers who's about to walk into a boatload of targets with Jameis Winston.
I do think that player can end up being interesting in fantasy.
I just do think the target chair could be a little bit nebulous behind in jou here just because like, I'm not the biggest Jerry Judy fan in the world, but he is out there, he's running the most routes and like, I still do think Elijah Moore is gonna command targets in like that shorter area too.
But yeah, overall, I, I do think Tilman is the guy that is the, if I had to rank somebody the rest of the season for wide receivers in Cleveland, I do think Tilman is the top guy.
