00:00You know, we have a lot of rookies here that I'm looking at here at Buka, McMillan, Torrey Horton is another one.
00:06I know that you mentioned him to me early in the draft season as well.
00:09He's looked pretty good in the preseason.
00:10You want to start here as far as any of these guys.
00:13I'll open the floor to you.
00:14Well, you can start with the ADP.
00:16And I think what's interesting about all these guys is that they are going a little bit later than I think their actual overall value is.
00:22So, you know, early in drafts, especially, you know, with a lot of rookies or even second year players that people don't have a real gauge about.
00:29You know, the average casual fantasy football fan didn't watch a lot of college football, most likely.
00:34He isn't really aware of who Ted O'McMillan is.
00:36And Ted McMillan was the first guy selected there in that wide receiver group with good reason.
00:40He had a great career in Arizona.
00:42He is set to be the target hog, the alpha dog wide receiver.
00:46You saw some really nice rapport between he and Bryce Young earlier this weekend.
00:51So I think what you're looking for, obviously, always when it comes to wide receivers, you're looking for volume.
00:55You're looking for value.
00:56I always talk about this on my shows where you can get a guy you could draft as a wide receiver three that ends up performing like a wide receiver two.
01:03And a guy like you draft as a wide receiver two who performs like a one sometimes.
01:07That's how you win weeks and ultimately how you win leagues.
01:10And I think the first guy on that list, Ted McMillan, is a great example of something like that.
01:14He's being drafted somewhere around a two slash three, depending on the depth of your league.
01:18But I think the amount of volume he's going to see, I think there's negativity, you know, based upon the culture of the Carolina Panthers with good cause because it's been such a bad team for so long.
01:28People say, oh, do I really want to be investing heavily in the Carolina Panthers offense?
01:32But if you paid attention to the end of last year, this was a team that covered a lot of games, put up a lot of points.
01:37They still have a terrible defense.
01:39So they're still going to have to push the football late in the games.
01:42And that's a good thing from a fantasy perspective.
01:43So the first guy on that list being Ted McMillan, to me, is a great example of a guy who's going to get a lot of target volume, a lot of upside.
01:51He's by far the most talented in the group that they have.
01:54It's a crowded room.
01:55But to me, he stands out quite a bit.
01:57And the fact that you can, once again, draft him as a three and he ends up performing like a two or maybe even the upside could be the season that Brian Thomas Jr.
02:05had last year that a lot of people did not see coming with Trevor Lawrence.
02:09He kind of came out of nowhere, had a massive season, was a league winner.
02:12And McMillan could do just that again.
