00:00Joe, would you rather Cooper Cup or Michael Pittman Jr. for the entire 2024 NFL season?
00:11It is so tempting to say Cooper Cup, isn't it? I mean, if Cooper Cup is my third wide
00:16receiver and you know me, I do like those early wide receiver builds. I find it hard
00:21to pass on Cooper Cup as my third. However, I think more to the point, you're looking
00:26at one of these guys as your number two. And Michael Pittman is younger, healthier,
00:32steady as well. Maybe he doesn't have the upside of a Cooper Cup had a couple of years
00:36ago, but I don't know if we should ever chase that again, especially now that Pukunuku is
00:39there too. I mean, trying to chase what happened a couple years ago is crazy. We just did that
00:43deep dive last week, right? In case you missed it on Jonathan Taylor. Why are we chasing
00:46the 1800 yard season that he had with Carson Wentz? He's been hurt for two years. Sure.
00:51He's still going to be a very good, probably a fringe first round pick. But what are we
00:55trying to do here? Stop living in the past. We're drafting a team for 2024. And I just
00:59think Michael Pittman is the safer investment. And early on, I do want to go a little safer,
01:05typically speaking. Now, look, if you're just playing a league for fun, you're out there
01:09just for pride and hanging out with you. But if you've got a major investments in a fantasy
01:13league, the Cooper Cup one is tough. If you are in, however, a very big money league or
01:18something like that, where it's very competitive, then a pick like Cooper Cup can be that sort
01:23of make or break. But you've got to understand there's break in there. All the news is positive
01:28now. That's great. What did you think you were going to get? A lot of negative news.
01:32Cooper Cup's no good. Cooper Cup's not ready. So I think Pittman is a safer of the two investments.
01:36But if I'm looking to go for broke or he is my third wide receiver where I can somehow
01:41manage that a little easier when he misses time, Cooper Cup then is a viable pick. But
01:47just straight up between the two of them in a vacuum, I'm going to go with Pittman, which
01:50I know is going to surprise a lot of people.
