In the graphic you displayed at the 11 minute mark, you have Jayden Reed "Sal ranked" ahead of Ridley, Hopkins, Diontae Johnson, Zamir White, Evan Engram, Kyler Murray and James Conner. This goes against what you said in the video.
Pickens is a year 3 receiver. Playing with a future hof QB. He’s going in the slot. And he’s an elite athlete. I think you will regret missing out on him
The Ridley disrespect is nuts! First year back, over 1,000 rec yards and 8 Td’s. Titans are not a running team anymore, they gonna spread the ball out and I see Ridley 8-10 targets a game .. he’s a steal that late
Yea I highly disagree with folks sleeping on Ridley this year. Sal has him ranked 87 😬 that’s awfully low and there’s no way in any world Hollywood Brown is better than him or should be ranked 33 spots higher than him. Gimme Ridley all day
@@iankane3732 he is way better than Hopkins and they PAID Ridley they didn’t pay Hopkins anything. You don’t know ball it’s okay lil bro. Ridley top 12 season coming
Tank dell is crazy good dude got open at will when it mattered most 33 first downs on 47 catches that’s how much separation he was getting he was on pace for 89 catches and 1400 yards and 12 td
Love you Sal! About the George Pickens and Arthur smith situation. You obviously run things a little different when you are an OC to head coach. He was the OC in Tennessee with A.J. Brown. What did brown do? Wr 21 and 12… obviously different skill sets but it’s not as bad as you may think…
Sal, how can i get access to your spreadsheets? Im in hawaii and theres no gambling in this state. Sleeper and Betr will not work here ebven on the mobile app. Happy to pay for your spreadsheets!
Just getting into your channel man, great stuff. Mayybe I am weird.... But as a fellow fast talking northeasterner you just seem to know your shit more than a lot of guys out there doing this! Haha
agree on jayden reed. packers run lots of 12 personnel where the slot receiver doesn’t exist. cant draft a 60% snap share guy as the number one WR on his team.
As a die hard Steelers fan I will say, you're probably right bro lol. I'm excited about this offense in terms of winning football games. I think Arthur Smith is more than competent as an OC. But we're not gonna be a fantasy friendly offense. For all the reasons you outlined.
Sal, I'm not seeing this top 250 list you are referring to in the video on the email you sent out..I.E Montgomery is right before Jayden Reed but in your vid, Diontae is right after Monty
Thinking that Tyler Boyd will play more than Ridley in important sets is a JOKE😭🤣 they just PAID this man he is there CLEAR CUT #1 WR. BE BETTER Sal you’re usually money on predictions but not this one lol
@@sloandogmillionairex00 yes. Insanely overrated. He’s treated like a top WR. And now he has Will Levis at QB. And that’s a lie. He’s done that like twice😂🤣😂🤣
I don't mind Jayden Reed's adp, he's going to continue getting steady, manufactured targets to get him in space and if Houston can support 3 2nd/3rd round WRs as the fantasy community is betting, the GB receivers can certainly produce a couple solid guys. He was a rookie who had great production in the 2nd half of the season so I don't see why he can't keep that up even with Watson back.
The biggest problem I have with any Steelers players this year is their new OC, Arthur Smith, who seemed to get his kicks out of screwing his players out of fantasy stats.
The Arthur Smith thing with Pickens gets blown way out of proportion. Atlanta threw it more than Pitt last year so how much worse could it get, especially with the 9 targets/game Johnson averaged per game being vacated?
Great work as usual man (esp the boyd part) , the thing I like most about your channel is that the rare time I actually disagree with you, its fine because you've stated your case properly and it may end up helping erode a false opinion of mine. In this case, its Pickens. I'm no Steelers fan, but in your analysis, I think you downplayed how atrocious Matt Canada was. I know Arthur Smith runs the ball, but Pickens got 1200 yards with a way worse qb, and a way worse OC. The ADP element is fair, I'd take Mixon or K9 over him, but thats cause they're undervalued imo.
I wish my draft slept on Pickens the way everyone else is...ide take him in the 5th with the biggest smile on my face In my draft i have to take him mid 3rd to get him...which if i go rb then rb i may do that
Why do I keep hearing that QJ is the Chargers number 1 receiver? He’s like number 4 at best until he proves himself. Ladd Mckonkey and Josh Palmer could be big PPR sleepers.
Pickens is a guaranteed #1 option in the 5th round… I’d even go 4th round… That one is a bad take… Juedy and Sutton basically had the same numbers except for TDs which even you said can go up and down… it’s all the Pickens show in PIT And it’s ironic that you’re so high on Neighbors because he’s the only target and the QB situation is better (really it’s not)… but not that high on Pickens… where Pickens is a guy you see going in the 6th… I mean you said you don’t like that he’s going 4th or 5th… but Neighbors going in the 5th is just madness??? JONES IS A QB WHO HAS ONLY BEEN OVER 15 TDS ONCE IN 5 years… Wilson has never had just 15… No, not a bad take… a HORRIBLE take
I just posted this on another Channel… I like Ridley but not in this offense, you left out their 1st round receiver from 2 years ago, Burks… the guy we are talking about, Ridley, was talking about Burks being a freak and comparing him to some great names… Hopkins was saying how great he was, and Callahan himself said he’s very impressed with Burks saying hes going to play inside and outside, they are going to carve out a spot for him… It’s just way too many question marks
Kupp was a great fantasy option at one time. The risk is just not worth it now. You dog other receivers who are 31 and Kupp is 31. You bring up the Puca point which is a very valid one. Kupp is older and has a high injury risk, besides the fact that he is not top dog anymore. He's not worth a draft pick IMO unless he falls to late rounds.
Pickens was doing that against the #2 coverage and Johnson commanding the defense’s attention. He’s gonna bust this year as far as adp goes. Dell as well. Crazy talented and might be alright beginning of the year until Diggs starts his bitching and temper tantrums demanding targets. Then the addition of te Cade Stover fellow OSU should have an impact also. He won’t live up to adp
How do you not mention tank dell that guy had 15.5 points per game 33 first downs on 47 catches is insane efficiency and speaks on how much separation he was getting, this guys gonna smash his adp I personally think he’s gonna be a top ten wr by next year
Pickens will be a top 10 receiver next year. Once he was given a qb that would give him the ball, like he wanted, he was elite. Arthur Smith loves the play action pass as an OC.
You are a steelers hater lol...if u think pickens isnt a good 4th or 5th round pick..or he isnt a top 30 wr lol....what wrs would u take over him in the 5th round?
Was holding together until you said you preferred Dell than Pickens. Too much to take. WRONG CALL can’t sell me that no way. A case of overthinking and overreaching one way over the other. 👎🏻
Traded Puka for Tank, Worthy, Ladd, and Hollywood. Feeling great! But I am one of those that drank too much koolaid on Nabers. I passed on him for effectively: DJ + Hollywood + Penix.
Yeah, I think I would have rather had Pukajuice and paired him with DJ, Hollywood and worthy. Nabers is stud but it feels like only the upside is priced in. You couldn't go wrong with any of those combo's and having Tank for every year after this season is gonna be gold!
Being low on Jaden reed AND Christian Watson will definitely hurt you.. Reed definitely seems like the worse player to have of the two especially for underdog/best ball formats especially when you consider upside and draft capitol. Being low on Jayden is what I think too but Christian Watson ranked 20 spots below ADP in ur rankings and being low on Reed means ur gonna be way to underexposed to the 2 top pass catchers in a projected above average passing attack.. L fantasy take
Dude let them sleep on him.. that mfer is 7/11 24/365 .. I will always take shots on him based on his positional value. Please let him slide, I will spam rb early and have him at WR 2. Easy money
Nabers in the 4th is too late but pickens in the 5th is way too early..lol..cmon dude...and yea the giants qb and offense is great 😅....making injury excuses for the giants like the steelers didnt have all the same injuries 😂
Ignoring Kupp's injury history and age he is the 1B in their offense now which caps his upside. I dont have any fear of missing out by passing on him for a safer pick. Like the Reed and Godwin takes.

Steelers fan here… Pickens take is spot on. I’ve been taking him too much because of Diontae leaving, but I’ll be fading him from now on (unless he somehow falls to round 7-8). Same with Reed. Good thing I’ve been getting value on Godwin. Kupp could be extremely valuable especially if Puka gets hurt!
Wouldnt take any wr u said over pickens 😅.....youll see....all these wrs getting all this love and excuses made...but pickens is a horrible pick lol...gtfoh
Jayden Reed is better than Calvin Ridley dawg. Dk what you were thinking there. I also disagree with your Cooper Kupp take, he's just too injury prone and his age makes him too much of a risk to draft earlier than his average draft position
@@sentinel7423 Even with the down year coming back to football Ridley last year had a better ppg average then Reed. He’ll be a focal point in the offense due to the mega contract he got, the jags didn’t use him right imo. His upside being WR 2 in 2019 is much higher than Reed that alone puts him higher. If Watson can stay healthy Reed will be capped unlike Ridley.
@TheRealJRealer maybe Ridley will have a better return for this and a couple other years but Reed has a better return for the future. Also Ridley completely sold my fantastic team last year so I am a bit salty about that😂

Shouldn’t

we shall see my friend... Sal you are usually right on your points
Apply the same logic to Nabers that you apply to Pickens and then I will agree with you. 2 talented WR options with less than ideal QB situations.
Pickens will have huge target upside with better QB play & Johnson being gone.
