The guy that continues to stand out on tape to me is Matthew Golden.
He had that and one reception and, even early on, I, I like this sometimes, like only a couple plays per game, they'll be off coverage and the two wide receivers will run the exact same route, and you can kind of see like who's, like who's fast, who's not.
And Christian Watson and Matthew Golden were running the same exact route, and Matthew Golden was notably faster in the straight line and coming out of his break on that rep.
So just hashtag noticing that Matthew Golden looks extremely fast out there, and the reports have been pretty, positive.
You can still get him in the hundreds on Yahoo.
I, I just, I just truly do not get it.
Yeah.
Again, this, you know, name kind of changes on a weekly basis.
Matthew Golden might be the most mispriced pick in fantasy football at- Yeah at this point.
I mean, I've had him up at wide receiver 40 for it feels like weeks at this point.
And then if you look just over on his consensus rankings, Matthew Golden is wide receiver 50, and even in home league drafts, especially on Yahoo, he's going later than that.
Yeah.
He's a first-round pick on- Right a team that's good, like- Yeah.
And I don't even love going back and watching his, you know, rookie season stuff, and yet I am still well ahead of market on where he should be going right now.
It's a pretty easy pick to make.
That's for sure.
