TE Tiers! Are Jake Ferguson and Dalton Kincaid Draft Day Steals? (07/18 Fantasy Football Podcast)

We'll give you the news and notes (7:35) and then get into Tier 1 (9:30). Should this consist of just Sam LaPorta and Travis Kelce, or do Trey McBride and Mark Andrews belong here as well? ... Tier 2 (21:30) has only one player for Jamey but three players for Dave. When is the right time to draft Dalton Kincaid? And then we get to Tier 3 (27:30) with Evan Engram, Kyle Pitts and George Kittle. Why do they go later than Kincaid when two of these three players are more accomplished? Also, is Tier 4 (36:30) your last chance to get a reliable TE? ... Tier 5 (43:10) would be the end of the Top 12 in the rankings, but are these guys Fantasy starters or are they glorified streamers? And then we get to Tier 6 (47:30) and beyond and talk about guys like Cole Kmet, T.J. Hockenson, Jonnu Smith, Taysom Hill, Mike Gesicki and many more ...

We spend the first portion of the show talking about how this would impact Deebo Samuel, George Kittle and Ricky Pearsall. Then we get to the WR tiers (12:10) and discuss if Amon-Ra St. Brown and A.J. Brown belong in Tier 1 ... Tier 2 (15:00) is kind of an easy one, but Tiers 3 and 4 (20:15) are anything but. How do you separate guys like Chris Olave and Nico Collins from players like Mike Evans and Michael Pittman? Then we're on to Tier 5 (35:15) which is loaded with talented players. Are they really that much different than the Tier 3 WRs? ... Tier 6 (42:00) could represent your last chance to get a reliable WR because Tier 7 (46:40) is exciting yet risky with guys like Christian Watson, Ladd McConkey and DeAndre Hopkins. And we finish with Tiers 8-12 (50:30). At this point in the draft, are we looking for upside or floor? ...

And we have news and notes (6:45) before we jump into Tier 1 (15:25) with the four elite quarterbacks. Why does Lamar Jackson belong in this group when he hasn't shown that type of upside since 2019? Also, why is Josh Allen still QB1 in average draft position? ... Tier 2 (22:48) features Anthony Richardson for Jamey but not for Heath. Who else is in Tier 2? And Tier 3 (32:30) has Kyler Murray, Jordan Love and Jayden Daniels. You could make a case for Kyler as the best QB value in drafts. What separates Love from the QBs in the next tier? ... Let's move on to Tier 4 (40:40), Tier 5 (48:25) and Tier 6 (51:40). We've got great starting options in Tier 4 including Brock Purdy and Caleb Williams. Tier 5 features Justin Herbert among others while Tier 6 is mostly a Superflex conversation ...
