You know, you don't think it's a big difference between Saint Brown and um and Chase this year.
Do you have fantasy people?
I think I do think there's a fantasy still in fantasy because look man, like, I mean with, with who Jamar Chase is and also who his quarterback is.
He can, he can win you a week if he gets you three targets, like he's not gonna, he's not gonna get three targets, but there's, there are scenarios and it might be, this is, this is why this stuff does matter like it's very nitpicky but in a game where Amman Rasa Brown gets you three targets, those are probably not gonna, and again, that's very, very unlikely, but it is within the range of outcomes and we're, we're picking nits here.
He's not gonna win you a week on three targets because he doesn't, he either does not have the ability or he has not been used in that way so far.
And like I said, he's one of my favorite receivers in the league.
Uh he's one of my favorite like work ethic guys in the entire league.
So if he at this point in his career comes out in this season in his fourth year and is just, he's, he's, he's taken another step as a player.
I wouldn't be surprised because that's who he's been so far in the NFL.
I just want to say in your tier two, the one guy who is the, you know, the most likely to be the number one receiver off the board next year in my mind is Garrett Wilson.
I know he hasn't done it yet, but if Aaron Rodgers somehow stays healthy, talk about all the ability there.
That's the guy who's gonna be your number one receiver in 2025 if things go right.
