Why Jordan Love Is a Value Pick in Fantasy Football for 2024
Transcript
00:00Let's segue now into this segment.
00:05NFL value plays for the upcoming season.
00:08We have quarterbacks, running backs, so on and so forth.
00:10Let's start at the quarterback position, Joe.
00:12I think a lot of people will quickly forget
00:14what happened in the playoffs last year
00:17and you're here to remind them.
00:20Yeah, look, I'm gonna go through these numbers again
00:22because they're just stunning.
00:24Last eight starts of last year,
00:26averaged 268 passing yards per game,
00:3070% completion percentage, 18 touchdowns, one interception.
00:34He was flawless, and he was flawless
00:35without a Jamar Chase or Justin Jefferson
00:39or Tyree Kill or a CeeDee Lamb, any of those guys, right?
00:43Jaden Reed's a nice wide receiver,
00:44but let's not pretend like Jaden Reed's
00:45a superstar in the NFL.
00:47Romeo Dobbs is a league average wide receiver.
00:50Jordan Love was doing this by playing good quarterback play.
00:52Like, and that's at the end of the day
00:53where I think you should be so excited about him.
00:56So in leagues where I'm waiting on quarterback,
00:58he is my target.
00:59He is currently going off at the ninth
01:01or 10th quarterback off the board.
01:03Him, CeeDee Lamb, two guys that finished
01:05as top five guys last year,
01:06and they're being drafted outside the top five.
01:07Why wouldn't you go back down that well?
01:09So I like waiting on quarterback this year
01:11in certain formats and certain depth of leagues.
01:13And there's a real good opportunity
01:15that you're gonna get Jordan Love at an excellent cost.
01:18I just took him yesterday
01:19in Superflex League as my second quarterback.
01:20I got to do it in the third round.
01:22He was still floating around there.
01:23So I pulled the trigger because I think the drop-off
01:25after Jordan Love and Kyler Murray
01:27in that grouping is significant.
01:29And Jordan Love is another one of these guys
01:31who could challenge for a top five overall spot,
01:33especially if Wicks comes on strong
01:35and if Christian Watson's healthy.
01:37Those guys could be difference makers,
01:39especially Christian Watson.
