After reading Hayden Winks’ thread detailing Marshawn Lloyd’s rookie-year gauntlet—hip, hamstring, ankle and appendix surgeries plus biomechanical testing at Wisconsin’s rehab center—Davis Mattek said he’s on the verge of deleting Lloyd from his ranks entirely. Mattek noted Lloyd is already working with the rehab group, a red flag for a player who must beat out AJ Dillon for touches behind Josh Jacobs. With Green Bay historically slow to trust rookies and Lloyd’s body ‘firing off every medical flare imaginable,’ Mattek is pivoting to undrafted hybrid Savion Williams as a cheaper hedge on Packers backfield uncertainty.

Davis Mattek cautioned that any Seattle wide receiver outside of Cooper Kupp and DK Metcalf—Tori Horton, Marquez Valdes-Scantling or otherwise—faces an uphill climb. He expects Klint Kubiak to import the Saints’ 12- and 21-personnel emphasis, projecting the Seahawks to run three-WR sets barely 50 % of the time. That squeeze on route volume, combined with Kupp’s target-hog reputation, leaves the WR3 needing an injury or a total Kupp decline to matter. Mattek still tossed Horton onto a correlated draft but warned he is betting on a best-case scenario rather than counting on weekly usability.

Davis Mattek endorsed Marvin Harrison Jr. as an ADP value and a strong fantasy target. He argued that concerns about Harrison’s straight-line speed and last year’s limited tackle breaking are overblown because the rookie has reportedly added muscle this offseason. Mattek expects that added size to help him win through contact and forecasted a "good chance" the Cardinals kick Harrison into the slot, a move that would give him cleaner releases and higher-percentage targets. The combination of extra bulk, potential slot snaps, and his already elite collegiate production profile makes Harrison a priority pick whenever he drifts even a couple of spots past his ADP in Best Ball drafts.

Davis Mattek defended paying Jameson Williams’ rising ADP by calling him the exact archetype you want on Best Ball Mania playoff rosters. Mattek reminded listeners that new OC John Morton has already said Williams looks “unbelievable” this spring and insists Detroit’s playbook will remain largely unchanged despite Ben Johnson’s departure. Mattek acknowledged Cortland Sutton and other wideouts in the same draft pocket probably project for more total yards, but he views Williams as one of the very few receivers who can drop a 40-point week in the tournament finals. He cited Williams’ elite straight-line speed, full offseason of healthy reps (something he lacked because of the ACL and gambling suspension), and a Lions scheme that still dials up deep crossers and manufactured touches for its field-stretchers. In 0.5 PPR best-ball scoring, Mattek is willing to “eat ramen for a few weeks” to afford Williams’ sticker price because the payoff in Weeks 15-17 could be life-changing.

Davis Mattek said he just knocked Anthony Richardson down roughly 16 spots in his rankings because, in his words, "the temperature feels bad." Mattek pointed to GM Chris Ballard’s comment that both Richardson and Daniel Jones "are going to help us at some point" as a not-so-subtle hint the organization is already hedging on its 2023 first-rounder. Mattek worries the Colts could open the season with a platoon or even bench Richardson entirely if early struggles persist. That said, he still loves stashing Richardson as a third quarterback on Best Ball Mania teams built around safer tandems like Baker Mayfield and Geno Smith. If Indy decides to abandon long-term preservation and lets Richardson run 12-plus times a game, Mattek believes the sophomore could post overall QB3 fantasy numbers in any starts he does make. The bet is basically 5–10 starts of nuclear rushing upside in exchange for a very real chance Richardson never sees the field.

Davis Mattek urged drafters to temper expectations for Sam Darnold after seeing the injury-guarantee language in his Seahawks deal. Mattek argued that a contract structured to void if Darnold fails a physical screams ‘escape hatch’ and indicates Seattle is already looking for reasons to pivot. He believes Tyler Shough is the front-runner to start before Thanksgiving and even gave a ‘very small but non-zero’ chance to Spencer Rattler. With that level of uncertainty, Mattek prefers adding Darnold only in three-QB best-ball builds tied to Week-17 correlation rather than banking on him as a reliable QB2.

Davis Mattek suggested scooping Tank Bigsby in the final rounds as an inexpensive way to play a potential Jaguars backfield shake-up. He believes new OC Liam Coen prefers backs who hit the hole “fast to and through,” a stylistic match for Bigsby that differs from Travis Etienne’s bounce-everything approach. Mattek noted Jacksonville media keep hinting the staff is "tired of the Etienne experience" and pointed to Bucky Irving’s late-season surge under Coen at Kentucky as proof the coordinator will ride the hot hand. While Bigsby is a non-factor in the passing game, Mattek expects him to handle lead-back carries in positive scripts and rack up efficiency if the Jaguars offense takes a step forward. At a cheap ADP, one or two multi-TD outings could make him a tournament winner.

Davis Mattek warned drafters not to assume a 2024 volume leap for Jordan Love. He called it “wish-casting” to think Green Bay suddenly throws a ton because Matt LaFleur’s offense finished 17th and 31st in pass rate over expectation the last two years. Mattek reminded listeners that every branch of the Kyle Shanahan tree skews run-balanced—Kevin O’Connell is the lone exception—so expecting PROE positivity from LaFleur is betting against established coaching DNA. That conservative philosophy lowers Love’s weekly ceiling and, by extension, the upside of late-round Packers receivers like Dontayvion Wicks. Mattek still drafts Love when the Week-17 correlation lines up but is fading the idea he turns into a 600-attempt passer.

Davis Mattek said David Njoku is the perfect TE2 for Best Ball Mania builds, calling him “140 points you can basically bank.” Mattek trusts Njoku’s weekly route participation (85% in 2023) to lock in a steady floor and argued that the Browns’ red-zone usage funnels to the tight end (23% target share inside the 20 last season). Even if Elijah Moore and Jerry Jeudy siphon between-the-20s looks, Mattek expects one or two 25-plus point spike weeks from Njoku because Kevin Stefanski loves using heavy play-action near the goal line. That combination of bankable volume plus a single blow-up game is exactly what he wants from a Round-11 tight end in best ball tournaments.

Davis Mattek said he is more bullish on Caleb Williams than current ADP reflects, calling the quarterback’s rough 2023 USC campaign a "Jaden Daniels at Arizona State"-style blip that should be disregarded. Mattek blamed last year’s struggles on Shane Waldron and Matt Eberflus’ dysfunctional setup and believes new OC Ben Johnson will maximize Williams’ arm talent and improvisational chops. Even if Chicago eases him under center early, Mattek expects Johnson to lean on heavy play-action and DJ Moore-Keenan Allen yards-after-catch designs that align with Williams’ collegiate strengths. With rushing upside (over 400 yards in each of his final two NCAA seasons) and an elite pass-catcher trio, Mattek is comfortable selecting Williams ahead of veteran pocket passers in the same tier to chase league-winning upside in Weeks 15-17.

Davis Mattek said drafters should not assume Rashee Rice will automatically reprise his 2023 role because Xavier Worthy could flip the script. Mattek noted Worthy handled plenty of the Chiefs’ manufactured-touch work after Rice was hurt, and the rookie’s late-season tape showed a big step forward in route nuance and contested-catch ability. If Worthy keeps developing, Mattek believes he can blend the short-area screens Rice thrived on with true field-stretching posts and corners—an efficiency profile similar to Nico Collins and Brandon Aiyuk’s 2023 breakouts. Mattek conceded Rice will likely lead the team in raw targets, but emphasized Worthy’s higher average depth of target and attached Mahomes efficiency give him a real chance to outscore Rice in best-ball formats at a much friendlier ADP.

Davis Mattek warned that an early-round Tee Higgins pick boxes you into an awkward Joe Burrow decision. Unless Burrow free-falls past his Round-5 ADP (a bet Mattek rarely sees), you either overpay for the stack or are left with an expensive, unstacked Higgins. He prefers receivers like Drake London who preserve multiple quarterback pairings and keep draft-room "optionality" intact.

Davis Mattek said he is hammering Christian McCaffrey at his current late-first ADP because he believes the market is about to push him up to the Jahmyr Gibbs/Puka Nacua range once drafters digest the steady stream of good news on the running back’s "German-engineered" Achilles. Mattek pointed to multiple glowing reports from 49ers coaches and independent injury analysts that McCaffrey is already moving without restriction. Given McCaffrey’s unrivaled per-game ceiling and bell-cow usage in Kyle Shanahan’s offense, Mattek thinks drafters will soon realize he should be the 1.01 whenever he’s healthy. He is loading up before that price correction hits and recommends best-ball players do the same.

Davis Mattek argued that drafters who open a Best Ball Mania room with Jamar Chase should bite the bullet and grab Joe Burrow at the 4-5 turn instead of trying to squeeze an extra round of ADP value by waiting until the 6-7 turn. Mattek said the room often will not gift you that discount, leaving you with an uncorrelated Burrow—or worse, a consolation quarterback like Mike Gesicki in Week 17. Because a Chase/Burrow stack unlocks one of the highest-ceiling Week 17 correlations on the board, Mattek believes the expected value of securing the combo outweighs any theoretical closing-line value from a modest ADP fall. "If you get to Week 17, you’re going to want Joe Burrow with Chase, not Joe Burrow with Mike Gesicki," he reminded listeners.

Davis Mattek warned drafters not to force Mike Williams into Justin Herbert stacks, saying the veteran is "pretty live to just retire." Mattek cited Williams’ third major knee surgery in four seasons, the Chargers’ refusal to guarantee any of his 2024 salary, and ESPN’s own depth chart bumping him behind Joshua Palmer. Even Mike Clay’s otherwise bullish projections only slot Williams for a WR3 target share, and Mattek thinks that is the absolute ceiling. If Williams does come back, he’s a 30-year-old jump-ball specialist in a Greg Roman rush-first scheme, hardly the profile you need in half-PPR best ball. Mattek’s bottom line: take Quentin Johnston or even rookie Jeremiah Hunter later and let someone else pay for 2019 Mike Williams nostalgia.

Davis Mattek called Tyrod Taylor a sneaky final-round quarterback in Superflex drafts now that he’s backing up Justin Fields in New York. Mattek noted the Jets’ coaching staff has job security and therefore no incentive to "go down with the ship" if Fields struggles early. A performance benching—or a concussion after 15 designed runs—could force Taylor into action for multiple starts. Taylor averaged 7.2 yards per attempt and 38 rushing yards in his two Giants spot starts last year, numbers that would play as a top-15 fantasy QB in any given week. Because the market chases Joe Flacco and Sam Howell several rounds earlier, Mattek thinks Taylor is the cleaner leverage bet: "He’s one Fields ankle twist away from a month of QB2 production, and you can still use that roster spot on a skill player in non-Superflex formats."

Davis Mattek called rookie Isaac Guerendo a "huge win" any time he lasts into the double-digit rounds, especially on rosters that fade Christian McCaffrey. Guerendo ran a blazing 4.33 forty at 221 lbs, giving him the second-best speed score in this year’s class and the same athletic profile that turned Elijah Mitchell into an immediate RB1 under Kyle Shanahan. Mattek noted the 49ers gave him a $255k guaranteed contract—more than Day-3 backs Tyler Allgeier or Elijah Mitchell received—signaling intent to keep him on the 53. With CMC entering age-28 territory and already nursing a heavy workload, Mattek thinks San Francisco will spell him more than people expect, opening a path to 8-10 weekly touches and a full-workhorse scenario if McCaffrey misses time. He prefers Guerendo over veteran handcuffs like Tyler Allgeier because the rookie’s ADP still sits outside the top-200 despite genuine league-winning upside.

Davis Mattek said he would “snap-take Joe Mixon over George Pickens every time” in Underdog Superflex drafts. Mattek argued that wideouts like Pickens, Jalen Waddle and Chris Olave are artificially inflated because drafters are conditioned by three-WR start requirements in other formats. In Superflex you only need two receivers, so the scarcity premium vanishes while touchdown-heavy running backs remain valuable in half-PPR scoring. Mixon is projected for a three-down role in Houston after Devin Singletary’s exit and offers an 18-touch weekly floor plus red-zone monopoly—far better median points than a mid-tier WR who needs a blown coverage to separate. Mattek framed Mixon as a pure projection play: “Give me the locked-in volume instead of the WR3 lottery ticket.”

Davis Mattek called Jaylen Waddle the single biggest bounce-back bet on the board. After four straight years as a Round-2 staple, Waddle has slipped into the fifth because he played through an oblique strain and ceded a 31 percent target share to Tyreek Hill, finishing 66-1,014-4. Mattek noted Waddle still ranked ninth in yards per route run (2.60) and posted the fastest ball-carrier speed of 2023, so the efficiency never left—volume did. He expects that volume to rebound above 23 percent as defenses devote even more help to Hill and as natural touchdown regression pushes Waddle closer to the nine scores he averaged his first two seasons. Mattek likened the discount to last year’s Chris Olave buy-low, emphasizing that a player capable of 1,400 yards and double-digit TDs should never last to Pick 50. His advice: smash Waddle in Round 5, especially when finishing Miami stacks.

Davis Mattek argued Travis Hunter should be going well ahead of fellow rookie Tetairoa McMillan. Beat reporters in Jacksonville say Hunter has taken every rep with the offense and zero snaps at corner, easing concerns he would be a part-time gadget. Mattek added that Doug Pederson’s Jags threw 634 passes last year—nearly 100 more than the run-heavy Panthers—so Hunter could see 90-plus targets even as a secondary option behind Christian Kirk. The No. 2 overall pick ran a 4.38 forty at 195 lbs and posted a 3.08 yards per route run in college, giving him spike-week potential that matters most on Underdog’s half-PPR, TD-weighted scoring. With an ADP three rounds after McMillan, Mattek called Hunter “the silent killer who will bury Tet shares by Thanksgiving.”

Davis Mattek said Jonnu Smith is one of his favorite throw-away tight ends to mix into May best-ball portfolios. Mattek argued last year’s bloated Atlanta target total was more a symptom of a broken scheme than an indictment of Smith’s talent—proof that coaches will pepper him when the playbook stalls. Dropping him into Mike McDaniel’s turbo-charged Miami attack gives the Dolphins a curveball formation: weeks where defenses sell out to stop Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, McDaniel can pivot to 4-TE looks and feed the 6-3, 248-pound Smith on drags and RPO seams. In an offense that averaged 29.6 points in Tua Tagovailoa’s healthy starts, even a 12–14 percent target share would spawn two-TD spike weeks that matter in Underdog’s playoff pods. Because Smith is routinely available in Rounds 17–18, Mattek views him as a near-free ceiling bet who lets drafters punt early tight end without sacrificing upside.

Davis Mattek called DJ Giddens a “super jam” for the Bears and one of his favorite deep-bench darts. Mattek argued Khalil Herbert has already cycled through multiple chances to seize a meaningful NFL role, so Giddens only needs to leapfrog an underwhelming veteran to become Chicago’s early-down hammer. He contrasted Giddens with Devin Neal, noting Giddens’ path to touches is clearer because the Bears refused to lean on Herbert even when the Bengals were forced to feed Chase Brown on every snap late last year. In super-flex and Pug rooms where Giddens’ draft rate is below 20 %, Mattek believes a modest 150-carry season would provide tournament-winning leverage at his current 16th-round cost.

Davis Mattek said he has come around on Tank Bigsby after re-watching every Jacksonville snap. The rookie’s profile was not limited to that 65-yard house call against the Colts; he actually earned goal-line carries in three separate games and graded out better than Travis Etienne in success rate. Mattek noted Etienne nursed a Week-3 shoulder injury and then limped to a 3.4 YPC the rest of the way, so Jacksonville’s coaching staff has every incentive to work in a more efficient short-yardage back. With Bigsby available in the late-fourth round of best-ball drafts—territory usually reserved for committee backs—Mattek sees a cheap path to 10-12 touchdowns and labeled him a priority share before summer steam pushes the price up.

Davis Mattek said the sharp way to attack Underdog’s new Superflex Best Ball contest is to load up on elite, non–quarterback skill players in the early rounds and then scoop discount quarterbacks who still have legitimate ceiling outcomes. He specifically listed Aaron Rodgers, Daniel Jones, Anthony Richardson, and Tyler Shough as late-round targets who could smash their ADP if they return to full health (Rodgers, Richardson), reclaim rushing production (Jones), or simply seize a starting job (Shough). Because Superflex formats magnify QB scoring, most drafters will push passers up the board, but Mattek thinks the market is over-penalizing these question-mark QBs. Pairing two of them with one anchor quarterback allows you to capture massive upside while still building a “super-team” of first- and second-round wide receivers and running backs that other rosters can’t match. Mattek emphasized that in a room where rankings services are unlikely to publish Superflex-specific lists, exploiting this structural edge should give experienced drafters a real advantage.

Comparing two disappointing first-round rookies, Davis Mattek said he actually prefers Xavier Legette’s 2024 outlook to Quentin Johnston’s. While both were overshadowed by veteran target hogs (Adam Thielen in Carolina, Keenan Allen in Los Angeles), Mattek believes Legette showed more flashes after the catch and benefits from playing with former No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young, who should improve in Year 2 under new coordinator Dave Canales. Thielen’s age-33 season saw his yards per route drop from 2.12 in September to 1.18 after Week 8, hinting at a declining role and additional targets for Legette. Mattek views the South Carolina product as a buy-low option who can step into 7–8 targets per game down the stretch, giving drafters inexpensive exposure to Carolina’s most likely breakout receiver.

Mattek grabbed Rico Dowdle as a late running-back flier, arguing that he fits the profile of past zero-RB winners: players who have flashed competency but are discounted because they don’t project well in preseason median models. One minor knee tweak for incumbent starter Chuba Hubbard could vault Dowdle into a 16-carry, 5-reception workload in Dave Canales’ run-centric Carolina offense. Mattek reminded listeners that Hubbard himself produced RB1 weeks with both Andy Dalton and Bryce Young under center, so the Panthers’ backfield can generate fantasy points if volume consolidates. With Carolina declining to spend meaningful draft capital on a runner, Dowdle sits one injury away from the 18-touch games that best-ball drafters “absolutely need” in the playoff weeks.

Davis Mattek clicked Alec Pierce as the perfect late-round "ceiling bet" for a roster whose WR2 slot is shaky. Mattek noted that every receiver on his team outside of A.J. Brown is unlikely to top six weekly targets, so he needs someone who can score from distance on minimal volume. Pierce already owns two different games with two targets and two touchdowns, and he posted a 17.5-yard average depth of target last season. Mattek thinks the Colts will again scheme him downfield shots, and one 70-yard house call can swing an Underdog Best Ball week. In builds that intentionally punt wide receiver early, Pierce’s big-play profile is the sort of cheap volatility that can mask low target floors and push a roster through playoff advance rates.

Calling it the "easiest pick of my life," Mattek grabbed Quentin Johnston in the double-digit rounds as his second wide receiver. He cited Johnston’s rookie line of 55 catches, 711 yards and eight touchdowns and emphasized that hitting on a cheap breakout candidate in a high-volume Chargers offense would be “completely outsized” for a roster already loaded at QB, RB and TE. Johnston is the type of discounted pass catcher who could replicate last season’s Puka Nacua league-winning surge and vault a thin WR room into tournament contention.

Mattek hammered home that a hero-wide-receiver construction only works if you are “freaking winning tight end.” He slammed the button on Sam LaPorta as his first tight end and later added T.J. Hockenson for a Week-17 Lions-Vikings correlation, arguing that doubling up on elite tight ends replaces the points you sacrifice by delaying additional wide-receiver picks. LaPorta’s weekly ceiling and locked-in role give the build a positional edge few opponents can match.

Davis Mattek said that when you open a best-ball draft with only one early wideout you have to “project for a lot of quarterback points.” He took Josh Allen in the third round and immediately planned to pair him with another elite option – Jayden Daniels if available, or Lamar Jackson/Jalen Hurts if they slipped – because the duo’s different bye weeks and easy stacking partners maximize weekly scoring. Mattek expects an Allen–Daniels combo to clear 30 fantasy points most weeks, giving a hero-WR roster the floor and ceiling it needs while allowing him to ignore the wide-receiver position for several rounds.

Davis Mattek selected Keenan Allen at pick 180 strictly to follow the exercise’s ADP rules, but cautioned that drafting 31-year-old receivers is always a "razor’s edge" move. Allen closed 2024 with an ADP of 68.7—sandwiched next to Brian Thomas Jr.—yet fell off the cliff in 2025 drafts despite posting productive stretches. Mattek used the plunge to highlight how quickly a single "black-marble" season can torpedo aging wideouts’ fantasy value, advising managers not to mistake a cheap price tag for safety when drafting receivers on the wrong side of 30.

Davis Mattek used Jaleel McLaughlin to warn drafters against blindly chasing the "Sean Payton always feeds running backs" narrative. He reminded listeners that the fantasy community touted any Denver back in 2024 because Payton offenses historically finish top-five in expected RB points. McLaughlin did see 137 touches and led the team in rushing success rate, but the overall backfield disappointed and anyone who loaded up on him "would have been wrong." Mattek’s takeaway: do not overpay for another Broncos depth back in 2025 simply on coaching history—demand clearer workload signals first.

Davis Mattek grabbed Dallas Goedert at pick 137 and noted the Eagle tight end is now available later than he was last summer (2024 closing ADP: late 10th round). Mattek views that slide as easy accumulation of closing-line value, especially for builds that already locked up an anchor tight end. He framed Goedert as the highest-ranked name left on the ADP sheet, making him a straightforward way to keep harvesting 2024 value pockets in 2025 best-ball rooms.

Davis Mattek said Mark Andrews is now a screaming value because drafters have pushed him from a 2024 fourth/fifth-round ADP of 51 overall all the way into double-digit rounds. Mattek locked Andrews in at pick 120-ish and called the year-over-year slide "a huge value from 2024 to 2025." His logic is simple: the role and red-zone equity that made Andrews a perennial top-three tight end have not changed, yet the room is pricing him as if they have. Mattek encouraged best-ball drafters to grab the discount and enjoy elite upside at a mid-range cost.

Davis Mattek labeled Kyler Murray a "screaming value." Murray’s 2024 closing ADP was 70.1, yet Mattek was able to secure him noticeably later while pairing him with Marvin Harrison Jr. Mattek highlighted that locking in a cheap Murray-Harrison stack gives drafters access to Murray’s rushing ceiling and immediate chemistry with the rookie, making the Cardinals quarterback one of his preferred mid-round targets in Best Ball rooms.

Davis Mattek called Breece Hall "an absolute bargain," underscoring that Hall’s 2024 closing ADP was 4.5 overall but he can now be taken multiple rounds later. In his mock, Mattek scooped Hall outside Round 3, stressing that managers are overreacting to last season’s turbulence even though Hall retains the same workhorse profile. Mattek believes landing Hall at this price gives drafters first-round upside at a mid-round cost.

Davis Mattek pointed out that James Conner is still priced almost exactly where he was last summer—even after dropping 230.8 fantasy points in 2024. Conner’s closing ADP last year was 72.8, and Mattek was able to grab him at pick 65 with a current ADP of 67.9. Mattek said this shows drafters remain stubborn about fading 29-year-old backs, creating a clear value pocket for anyone willing to ignore the age narrative and lock up Conner’s every-down role in Arizona.

Davis Mattek argued that Rashee Rice can post an Amon-Ra St. Brown style WR1 season even if the film crowd hates how it looks. He pulled up 2023 numbers that show Rice actually edged St. Brown in targets-per-route, matched him in target share when both were on the field, carried a slightly deeper average depth of target and produced comparable air-yard totals—all while receiving zero end-zone looks. Mattek’s thesis is that Andy Reid will, in his words, “spam what works,” meaning Rice’s underneath slant/option diet should remain Patrick Mahomes’ first read even once Travis Kelce and Marquise Brown return to full health. Mattek still has Rice as a heavy draft target in both best-ball and season-long formats until the market pushes him into the mid-second round, a point at which he would re-evaluate.

Davis Mattek labeled Patrick Mahomes the best bet in fantasy to erupt for a 400-point season after back-to-back "down" years of 293 points. He referenced Mike Clay’s conservative 4,300-30-289 projection but argued Mahomes’ ceiling climbs dramatically if rookie LT Josh Simmons merely grades as a top-10 pass-blocker. Mattek’s thesis: no other QB combines Mahomes’ track record, play-calling infrastructure, and upside path, making him undervalued at his current ADP in both season-long and best-ball drafts.

Davis Mattek urged drafters to scoop up Rashee Rice while legal and injury uncertainty still prices him in the late-third. Mattek expects Rice’s ADP to rocket into the mid-second once the LCL rehab looks normal and the NFL clarifies discipline (or lack thereof). He cited Andy Reid’s history of "spamming what works" and pointed to Mike Clay’s 14-game projection of 112 targets, 84-946-6 receiving despite only 30 projected Chiefs passing TDs. Mattek noted Rice would leapfrog names like Drake London and Tee Higgins once the market gains clarity, giving drafters a rare pre-camp discount on Kansas City’s clear No. 1 wideout in both best-ball and redraft.

Mattek called Ty Felton a "screaming value" because the market has completely missed that Washington spent a late third-round pick on him. He reminded listeners that most drafters had already turned off the draft broadcast by pick 100, so Felton’s draft capital is going unnoticed—he is selected in fewer than 10 percent of Underdog rooms. The Commanders are expected to finish top-10 in pass attempts under Kliff Kingsbury, and the current WR3 spot behind Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson accounted for 79 targets last year. Mattek believes Felton’s 4.39 speed and 15-yard college aDOT make him the ideal vertical complement in an offense that will lean on quick tempo with rookie QB Jayden Daniels. At a near-free cost Felton can deliver two or three long-ball spike weeks that decide Best Ball playoff rounds, something Mattek says “absolutely nukes” the advance-rate math when it hits.
