Hello, and welcome to the Dynasty Do Podcast. I'm your host, Korey
Evans. Thanks for listening to this week's show. I'm talking about post NFL
Draft value followers for the content of this episode. Last week was post NFL
Draft value risers. So it's the opposite five names I want to discuss.
So I think our more either hold wait and see hot pans out for them,
or for the most part, sells try to cash in on that name
value or name recognition because they've lost value from either the NFL Draft or even
previously free agency. Before I get to that, if you call out,

Based on feedback, I've received calendar fills up quick either thirty minutes to one
hour. We'll get that scheduled and locked in if interested, So here we
go. Post NFL Draft value followers. First name that came to mind when
I was creating the topic, Kenneth Walker twenty three in October, appeared to
be locked in as an RB one candidates for fantasy purposes after being a second
round pick out of Michigan States in twenty twenty two forty first overall while delivering
a two twenty eight ten fifty nine rushing line for Seattle's rookie four point six
charts per tote last year. For good measure, Walker added a twenty seven
for one sixty five receiving effort on thirty five targets. Despite Kenneth's inspiring production,
Seattle chose to select zach Scharbonnay in the second round of this year's draft
fifty two overall, So in twenty twenty two, it was Kenneth Walker forty
one overall, twenty twenty three, Charbonnay fifty two overall. Based on early
comments from head coach Pete Carroll, it sounds like the Seahawks view Walker Charbonnay
as competitors for the b back job at running back. In twenty twenty three,
Specifically, Caroll praised the pass catching prowess or ability of Charbonay. Quote,
he's so versatile. He just will fit in and be a great addition.
And really, we're gonna find out how far it can take it.
In terms of the receiving part of it. We know he's really good at
it, but so is Kenneth, So those guys will be battling. Quote
from context clues that quote or information could mean that the Seahawks truly envisioned Walker
as an early down rusher, whereas Charbonnay has the upside of potential to become
a first second out option, yet could simultaneously have an insight track to passing
down usage and be a threat to Kenneth's long term rushing volume. Remember that
Kenneth walkers five nine to eleven with four point three eight speed. He has
the size, along with big playability burst agility to be a feature back at
the NFL level. Keep in mind also that Walker was not known for his
receiving capabilities as a running back prospect, even posted the tenth lowest yards per
out run score MONTHLA OFFIT running backs in twenty twenty two. Hence why I
think that zach Scharbonay has a legitimate shot to become Seattle's primary third on weapon
or passing down running back to compliment Walker and eventually push him for starting caliber
status. That makes in my mind, Kenneth Walker more of an RB two,
if not high end flex than surefire RB one. From here on out,
we should expect in RBBC between Walker and Charbonnay. Much is clear.
David Montgomery twenty sixteen June signed a lucrative three year, eighteen million dollar contract
with Detroits eleven million, of which was guaranteed this offseason. That's a pretty
penny for running back in the market at his age. The Lions then proceeded
a draft Jamir Gibbs at pick one point twelve overall. While it's possible Detroit
and visions Montgomery as a replacement to Jamal Williams for short yardage or red zone
opportunities, draft capital speaks volumes when it comes to Gibbs and his upside as
a dual threat, dynamic playmaker, rushier receiver combined. Let's reflect back on
twenty twenty two for Montgomery. He served a diminished role with Chicago last year
in Tanna with Cleil Herbert. Montgomery records threed a two O one eight O
one five rushing log four yards per carry in sixteen games played. He had
no more than seventeen rushes in a contest. That's a fair sample size to
extrapolate and or project alongside Jamire Gibbs. I think in twenty twenty three he
tallied annual catch totals to twenty five fifty four forty two thirty four as a
pro two days. It's very to assume Montgomery will establish some sort of receiving
role, even if it ends up being capped due to the presence of Jamir
Gibbs, who's a far more capable receiver and quite honestly the better talent among
each running back size is a factor working Montgomery's favor at five eleven two twenty
four. Jamer Gibbs does not have that body frame, so perhaps Montgomery receives
an initial veteran acte to begin the twenty twenty three campaign. It's worth noting
that Montgomery is missing some reps or valuable time at Voluntariota's due to an undisclosed
injury. Doesn't sound like a big deal started bringing that up. Listen,
running back fantasy value is ever changing. Case and point being Montgomery signing with
Detroit to see a stock climb as a replacement to Jamal Williams to now sinking.
After Jamir Gibbs was added as a first round pick in real life and
locked in at one oh two or one oh three and a one quarterback format
if not top six pick in superflex rookie drafts, it is now difficult to
trust Montgomery's anything more than a volume or TV dependent RB two. That end
of itself creates doubt estimating his stats or workload, alongside Jamier Gibbs, who
is suddenly a price commodity in the dynasty space. I'm not panicking if I'm
a David Montgomery owner, but like Kenneth Walker, if someone is willing to
bite on the previous production or at least consider the name or condition to warrant
a premium price tag, then I'm listening as an exit off of each of
them if the price is right. Of course, context matters. Your lead
specifics are different than others. It just really depends on the ten or twelve
people in your league and who's willing to spend what on these players. Up
next is Colin Sudden twenty eight in October. He's been the subject of offseason
trade rumors. Have to become a UFA on the straight the free agent in
twenty twenty six. While Denver could exercise a dead cat move of seven point
six five million in twenty twenty four to get out of his contract if desired.
New About coach Sean paid and prioritized byde receiver in the second round of
this year's draft by selecting Marvinim's junior sixty three overall. The Broncos also picked
up Jerry Judy's fifth year option or rather exercised. It's both of those moves
negatively impact Sudden's outlook with the team, both a short and long term on
tape. Courtland simply has not looked like the same explosive downfield threat ever since
Terry is ACL in twenty twenty. Since then, Sudden's could pile receiving logs
of fifty eight seven seventy six two. That was ninety eight targets in twenty
twenty one, and then sixty four eight twenty nine two with one hundred nine
targets in twenty twenty two. Most concerning, however, is Sutton's downward career
trend in yards perkeetch sixteen point eight, fifteen point four torn ACL in twenty
twenty, but thirteen point four and thirteen point oh I means he's losing that
verticality perhaps post ACL. There that's the major red flag in his profile.
Russell Wilson's in consistency or bad play in general last year could be an underline
variable in Sutton's fantasy demise. Yet Jerry Judy managed to succeed or thrive under
these same quarterback circumstances in twenty twenty two with a sixty seven nine seventy two
six line, one hundred targets fourteen and a half yards perketch. Obviously,
straight up, we all prefer Jerry Judy Overcourn Sudden, Marvin Min's junior.
Ranking him between those three, I would sad him in Hind Judy, So
Judy, Marvin Mimms Sutton. In terms of here on out value, we
can initially expect Sudden to open up as Denver's wide receiver two for twenty twenty
three's based on veteran presence and his recognition with the playbook understanding of the team.
The question is when or how long until Tim Patrick Marvin Mimms push for
said wide receiver two role. Corley was held too or under seventy five yards
receiving in ten of his fifteen games played last year. Unless his role changes
or a trade still takes place, I think Sudden belongs in the viol tool.
Why was she with Remix for this upcoming campaign? And in terms of
what I would try to sell him for a younger prospect in this year's class,
think I'm Marvin Mimms or Jonathan Mingo, Rashi Rice. If you can
get a late first or Suddon that is ideal, but more realistically we're talking
early to mid second unfortunate because of this downturn in overall output, let alone
the on tape visibility of the explosion, the release and other breaks, the
running general not creating as easy a separation as he did prior to his twenty
twenty ac tear. Time for a quick break and then two more names to
discuss who I think our post NFL draft value followers in dynasty. The next
is Darnell Mooney twenty six and October. He's a umber strap to free agent
in twenty twenty four. Tyler Scott was draft in the fourth round, one
thirty three overall this year as a possible replacement to Mooney through to the similar
body frames and skill sets, and in fact, evaluation wise, I actually
think that Scott's a better prospect than Mooney was. We'll see how that pans
out. More on Darnel. He struggled with their ability last year, finished
with a forty four ninety three two log that was on sixty one targets for
only twelve point three yards per catch twelve games played. Due to a season
ending ecle injury. Did not surpass seven catches or ninety four yards receiving in
a single contest, and even was held at or under four receptions in eight
different weeks. There was literally no floor, and the ceiling was so inconsistent
that Mooney was found on benches more than starting lineups in twenty twenty two.
Compare that, though, to his twenty twenty season sixty one six one four
and even twenty twenty one eighty one ten fifty five. For that production,
it's quite evident that Darnell took a back seat when it comes to effectiveness,
which, justin fields a quarterback full time, was at a byproduct of Fields
rushing to football more or simply Mooney not being the same player because of this
ankle injury that eventually ended a season. At this point, we don't have
a concrete answer as to which way Mooney is going to fair come twenty twenty
three. The Bears sported one of the worst wide receiver dep charts in all
of football last season, which makes Mooney's lack of success even more disappointing,
at least on paper, especially now with DJ Moore atop the team's WIDLC depth
charts as well as Chase Claypool having a full offseason unders belt to learn and
grasp the Bears playbook after struggling in twenty twenty two once being traded for Pittsburgh,
and out of all receivers not in a DJ More, Chase Claypool was
the one receiving a ton of praise already in early Ota practices. Bears that
coach Matt Eberflus stated that Mooney is still progressing from his twenty twenty two ankle
injury, which casts further doubts towards the twenty twenty three roll that alone dynasty
value. Darnel himself, though, claims he had a screw put into his
foot and that he's going to be one for twenty twenty three in a matter
of months. Year the other receiver depth if that's not the case for the
Bears and sits of Ecuonamius Saint Brown and Vaylor's Jones Junior so not fantastic behind
the likes of DJ Moore, Chase Claypool, Darnell Mooney, Tyler Scott so
those three being healthy is key for development of justin fields, let alone the
Bears putting out sporting a respectable trio at wide out. There's rebound potentral for
Mooney if his ankle co operates, since the stock has dipped substantially year over
year since he was a rookie. Even so, the former fifth round pick
appears to be a fringe wide receiver. Three reflects entering what is for him
in real life a contract year, so a make or break season almost for
Mooney to prove that twenty twenty two is a fluke and he's more of the
twenty twenty and twenty twenty one version of himself that could either get him a
large payday and or really put him on the map as a relevant wide out.
tyDi just re fields in fantasy football. I personally think that Tyler Scott
could be the heir apparent to Mooney if he is walking as a free agent
next offseason. That is speculative at this point because Scott has not even played
a single NFL snap, But outside of looking in, I'd rather pay a
cheap price of third or fourth to secure Tyler Scott than what normally is a
middle late second for Darnell Mooney. There's two sides to that debate, and
I understand that there is still a scene that exists for a Mooney, but
I just can't get on board with it based on the moves the Bears have
made. Clearly they do not envision Mooney as a one or possibly even two
in real life. When you traded for Claypool last season, let alone made
a blockbuster trade for dj More to become the alpha for the Bears offense.
Last, but not least, Rashad Bateman as a value follower twenty four November,
the twenty seventh overall pick in twenty twenty one, who has failed to
remain on the field for Baltimore even live up too expectations out of Minnesota in
school. Let's reflect back on his rookie and sophomore years as a pro twenty
twenty one forty six five fifteen one eleven point two yards pertech, sixty eight
targets in twelve games played twenty twenty two fifteen twenty five two eighteen yards pertecch
but only twenty eight targets in seven has played. His campaign ended in November
with a dreaded Liz Frank injury that eventually required surgery. Fair to ponder when
Rasha will be back to full strength to this point, the Ravens signing free
agent Odell Beckham to a one year, fifteen million dollar contract doesn't forecast a
promising or even impactful return for Bateman. Then again, Baltimore needs to address
wide receiver depth this offseason is a top priority because it's been a weak point
of their roster. More interesting, the team allocated the twenty second overall pick
first round of draft Flowers out of Boston College, who could become the Ravens
new wide receiver long term. Lamar Jackson returning with a new blockbuster contract bodes
well for the entire offense and passing attack. The debate from a fantasy perspective
is where Bateman ends up in the target pecking order after Mark Andrews, because
I feel like Mark Andrews a clear one like Travis Kelsey is for KC for
the Baltimore Ravens passing attack. If Flowers catch is on quick as a rookie,
then it's not out of the question that Rasha becomes wide receiver two or
even wide receiver three. To penning Beckham's knee health, I don't think Beckham
returning to old form or semi close to it is realistic. It could take
time from the ramp up or even become a trustworth a component for Lamar Jackson.
The encouraging part about this entire offensive landscape, even Bateman included, is
that new off it's a coordinator. Todd Mokin should bring his past focused offense
over to NFL from George to create more opportunities after the catch in space as
well as downfield that actually caters to bateman skill set very well as a vertical
field structure health availability. These are things that Bateman has not displayed at the
pro level. Otherwise, if he did farewell as a rookiing sophomore, perhaps
Odell Beckham was not brought in or Za Flowers is not a first round pick
to Baltimore. But because of what Rashod Bateman is put on display as a
rookie and sophomore, the Ravens simply had no choice to bolster their wide receiver
depth across the board and relying Bateman is more of an usciliar piece as opposed
to franchise cavalide receiver one. All of those factors being put on the table
I viewersh as a low volume, high variance flex with the ceiling for more
output. Of course, during spike weeks, if he finds the end zone.
Twenty twenty two was a limited sample size, but we did not see
Rashad eclips four receptions in a single game. Even back as a rookie in
twenty twenty one, when he had twelve games played, Bateman was held two
or under four catches and six of said twelve games appeared in bat means he
is not a possession type wideout for the sake of this offense. Could have
looked different under Todd Mokin, sure, but with Beckham Zay Flowers now in
the mix to compliment Mark Andrews, JK. Dobbins Staples in this offense,
I just don't know puzzle piece wise where Rashod Bateman fits in. The franchise
has clearly lost some trust or confidence in Bateman's durability availability, however you want
to spin it in fantasy, There's still a case be made because the only
twenty four November that he can bounce back and be a year three breakout.
I'm less optimistic about Bateman moving forward in Donasy value and in terms of younger
wideouts fairly close to eighty pek. Give me trailing Burkes, give me John
Dodson all the everyday over Bateman, therefore from a price tag were talking mid
to late first or Bateman and I'm putting my eggs in a basket not named
Bateman. I don't trust the situation. There's too many miles of feed.
If he surprises and becomes the focal point for Lamar Jackson, then so be
it. I don't see that occurring based on the depth chart and infrastructure in
Baltimore. Bet we'll do it. Hope you'll enjoyed this week's episode. Quick
