Welcome back to another episode of the Fantasy Life podcast Today, we've got some juicy player discussions with Chris Allen and Ian Haritz. Let's dive right in. Starting off, Chris shines a spotlight on Geno Smith. With an Underdog ADP of QB16 and a ranking of QB12 by Dwain McFarland, it's clear that his value hasn't taken the proper rise since the draft, especially considering Seattle didn't draft a quarterback and their tight end, JSN, isn't a worry. Next up, Ian highlights Alexander Mattison. Despite an Underdog ADP of RB26, Ian believes Mattison could soar as high as RB17 without Dalvin Cook in the picture. Backing this, he cites Mattison's past performances, such as his stellar Week 17, 2020, performance when he ended up as RB4. However, workload might be an issue as the Vikings ranked 27th in targets to the running back position last year. Chris then discusses Elijah Mitchell, with an Underdog ADP of RB41. Interestingly, despite concerns about CMC splits, Mitchell has a pick value of 93.6 vs. 135.1 in Dwain's ranking. Jaylen Warren is next on Ian's list, with an Underdog ADP of RB46 and a ranking of RB43. The fact that the Steelers didn't draft a running back and that No. 3 RB Benny Snell is still a free agent, might play into Warren's favor. Antonio Gibson is another running back in focus, with Chris noting his Underdog ADP of RB39. Despite Ron Rivera's constant affirmation of giving Gibson more touches, his ranking is a pick value of 100.8 vs. 140.8. Ian then brings up Jerome Ford, with an Underdog ADP of RB58 and a ranking of RB49. As the direct backup to Nick Chubb with Hunt out of the picture, Ford might have an increased role this season, given the reluctance to give Chubb the pass-down work over his career. Turning to wide receivers, Chris talks about Jordan Addison, with an Underdog ADP of WR34 and a Dwain ranking of pick 49.2 vs. 89.7. Ian then discusses Diontae Johnson, who despite having an Underdog ADP of WR38, has a personal ranking of WR24, mainly due to his consistent target distribution. The tight ends aren't left out either, with Chris discussing Pat Freiermuth, who has an Underdog ADP of TE10, but ranks TE8 in Dwain's list. Ian ends with Gerald Everett, who despite having an Underdog ADP of TE20, ranks TE12, courtesy of his career-best marks in 2022.
