Every fantasy bust calls take
401–409 of 409
Tyreek Hill to fall short of his draft cost (a mid third round price)
I just I want no part of thirty one year old Tyreek Hill coming off a bad year... I don't really want to pay a mid third round price to find out
T.J. Hockenson to fall short of his draft cost (a sixth rounder in ECR)
I just cannot get on board with a sixth round ECR for him.
Christian McCaffrey to fall short of his draft cost (ECR sixteen, a second round pick)
McCaffrey is not a risk worth taking because when your shark, your emphasis in the first two rounds should be on avoiding the bear traps
Tyreek Hill to fall short of his draft cost (ECR thirty)
there's too many red flags with Tyrek to take him ECR thirty for me
DJ Moore to fall short of his draft cost (ECR thirty nine)
I don't think he's going to be a bust by any means, but maybe underwhelm a little bit versus his ECR
Rashee Rice to fall short of his draft cost (an ECR of forty three)
with Rashie Rice at an ECR of forty three and Xavier Worthy at fifty four, at least one of those guys has to be a colossal disappointment at their current cost
DJ Moore to fall short of his draft cost (ECR thirty nine)
It's more of a gentle fade for me... I'm probably not going to have a lot of DJ Moore in twenty twenty five.
Saquon Barkley to fall short of his draft cost (ECR number two, the number one running back)
I don't think that he should be the number one running back Ranke... So I'm just going with the process play... I'm just gonna face Saquon
Rashee Rice to fall short of his draft cost (round four)
There's just like so many ways the right doesn't work out versus the cost you have to pay for him... So yeah, I agree kind of being lower on Rashie Rice.
