Steve Buchanan:
The biggest thing that jumped out at me—and I’m sure these guys are going to agree—Tyreek Hill is $6800. We very rarely see Tyreek Hill at $6800. This is the Miami effect here. This is going from Patrick Mahomes to Tua. But the thing is—Hill is not going to get those deep balls of course, but Tua is extremely accurate, they’re obviously going to be scheming up these plays to get him in the open field and get him so he can get his speed going, because that’s where he obviously excels.
So you know, you look at Tyreek Hill against the Patriots, who by the way, like we mentioned, are taking a huge step back in the secondary. This is not going to be that lockdown secondary we saw before from the Patriots. So Tyreek Hill at $6800, yes, the quarterback isn’t as good. But when do we see him at this rate? He could absolutely smash that.
Steve’s Pick: Tyreek Hill ($6,800)
