it's Fantasy Football Draft season and we're trying to find that juice at the wide receiver position to get us over the hump especially at discount we're trying to find those edges to win our league today we're going to look at Rashi rice we're going to look at his upside we're going to look at his situation we're going to look at the Kansas City Chiefs and everything else but you need to click that subscribe button right now because we're doing deep Dives on these players every day we're helping you with your drafts with those strategies in season waiver wire every day pickups every day setting your line everything's here everything's here but Rashi rice is in a big situation right now because Maris Hollywood Brown is dealing with a collar bone injury this happened a bit ago who knows when he's going to be back and how much of an impact this injury is going to do to him throughout the season also the elephant in the room is right here it's right here I cannot tell you if he's going to get suspended or not but I can definitely tell you people are still drafting him up and he's getting more expensive by the day in fantasy football especially on Underdog fantasy and also the further we get along into this the odds are saying that you may not get suspended for this year I don't know I'm not going to play that game with you but I am going to cover the advanced metrics and you look at all this and be like I don't want them I do want them and you figure it out but if I give you all the information it's going to help you out rashy Rice drafted in the second round round of last year's draft looked good at SMU at College he showed good ball skills downfield tremendous at the catch Point good size adjust athleticism too 6'2 200 that's about the average size range of a wide receiver in the NFL and then you look at the depth jar here they've improved some things Maris Hollywood Brown in the injury is going to be very impactful Xavier worthy are we going to get a rookie ramp up he's been looking damn good in preseason he's been looking good in training camp that's also going to push the defense that's also going to put those safeties backs rashy rice works the short to intermediate that's probably only going to help him get open and create more separation and the thing about Rashi rice is he's been looking good in training camp mini camp OTAs has been the top player in all of Camp among all the position groups in Chief's Camp accounting for otaa mini camp training camp preseason and everything and also last year he was productive 13.4 PPR fantasy points per game and then locked it down on the back nine of the season after his rookie ramp up because it took some time for him to get notice get work in the passing game we might see a rookie ramp up for Xavier worthy we might see that but this is not an Xavier worthy video we're talking about Rashi rice and he solidified himself and he's looking even better in training camp right now and that can materialize this season and then targets was coming his way 10 11 12 in some games getting more opportunity but the air yards weren't there that's the scary part about his fantasy production even when he's doing good you're like sucking your thumb wishing that he got more air yards and a couple deeper targets because he could be a guy that could be just a huge League winner if he got an eight out of like nine of like 10 but he had an eight out of like 4.8 on the season but even on the back nine when he was getting targeted 43 47 88 44 on the top end not enough to really get you that upside but he was getting targeted and he was getting opportunities for that to increase though it's hard to stay at an eight out of 4.8 it's hard to stay there maybe we get a ramp but maybe ramp's up to like six even 678 you're getting better fantasy production out of Rashi rice looking at this offense he got 103 targets last year and a lot of good opportunity and he is going in the year two in this offense he's got a rapport Maris Hollywood Browns coming in injured who knows how he's going to be affected the marketon hey hey we're kind of worried about this they dropped him an 0p he's falling in drafts on Underdog and then on top of that you got the rookie here with Xavier worthy they're playing small ball with these wide receivers when you look at the a do 6.7 4.8 18.2 for Justin Watson who's still there 17.7 for NBS 8 .5 2.9 6.9 a lot of shallow targets Travis Kelsey still there Rashi rice will probably soak up a good bit of Target still and you're looking at his ADP ever since that Maris Hollywood Brown injury he has been rising he's now up to round four prior to that he was like round six round seven so the market saying hey we're not worried about him getting suspended we don't think it's going to happen we're going to draft him up pretty high we think he's going to win our league we think we're going to get good opportunity here we're worried about Maris Hollywood Brown he's getting drafted around round six round seven range Rashi rice is up there but he's going to get good targets he is looking damn good in training camp we covered the training camp Clips every day throughout training camp on the top players and he's looking good mini can't be looked good OTAs he looked good rashy rice is on the upswing right now and even in basic drafts he's getting drafted pretty high still because this is four four multi sight ADP averaged out from ESPN Yahoo nfl.com your major s so very predictable compared to home League drafts still getting drafted up there kind of more towards the middle rounds because the running backs get floated up a bit but still rice is still getting considerable draft Capital but you're worried about the legal issues you want to go pivot to running back or another wide receiver you don't really really need him for those instances if you feel that way but you want chiefs wide receivers so that may be the reason why you need him for your fantasy league plus he's looking good on the field he's having a very good off season when it comes to play not when it comes to driving let me know what you think in the comments below
