I don't think so. I mean I, you know, obviously if there was going to be a terrible head coach there, we would have been concerned about Jackson Dart and Cam Scatter Boo and league Neighbors, etc. I think everybody's excited about drafting these guys. The way Dart performed in his rookie campaign, you know what Malik Neighbors is capable of. He's healthy. And Scatter Boo when he was the lead running back those six games over 19 PPR points per game. So you know, really it comes down to is everything going to be still status quo mostly from a health standpoint. So I think Dart's got a top 10, maybe borderline top five quarterback profile. Malik Neighbors, borderline first round pick. Sky Gottabu could go as early as round three. So I think those three guys are kind of locked in. So Harbaugh just, I think enhances it. Todd Monkin enhances those guys and what they're capable of doing.

C (3:27)

Todd Monkin's not official yet, but it's expected, I guess that he'll be the offensive coordinator. Kevin Stefanski to Atlanta.

D (3:36)

You like this? I do. You know, I, I think you get an offensive minded coach there. I know Zach Robinson, we had some hope because he was coming from the Ram system when they hired Raheem Morris. Really comes down to can Michael Penix take a step forward. Drake London I think has been awesome with packs. He was, he was still really good, you know, the, the year with Kirk Cousins. But obviously Drake London could be a top five fantasy wide receiver. Something can be drafted as a top 10 guy. If Kyle Pitt stays, I think really that's the biggest thing for what this offense could look like. And Bijan Robinson I think will do very well with Stefanski because we know the run game under Stefanski when Nick Chubb was healthy, what we saw in flashes from Quinton Judkins in a terrible environment, you know, Bijan to me is, is either one or two depending on what happens with Detroit in terms of their offensive coordinate, their, their, their offensive personnel, you know, mostly from a David Montgomery standpoint. So I think both those guys, Bijan Gibbs, top two guys. But in the case of, you know, Bijan being there with, with Stefansk, it's a good thing.

C (4:36)

Okay. And Stefanski great with tight ends. In 2020, Cleveland tight ends had nine touchdowns and they only threw 27 touchdowns. For the year 2021, they had 10 touchdowns and Cleveland quarterbacks through 21 touchdowns and 10 of them went to tight ends. 2022, David Joku head really didn't do that much. 2023 though, he had a great year. 882 yards, six touchdowns. 2024 Cleveland tight ends at eight touchdowns. 2025 Cleveland tight ends had 10 touchdowns. Great track record there. All right. Other coaching news. We had a couple of defensive coaches being hired. Jeff Halfley to Miami, Robert Sala to Tennessee. Offensive coordinators Drew Petzing to Detroit. So it goes from Arizona to Detroit and Mike McDaniel to the Chargers. Which, which one do you like better? Jamie McDaniel to the Charger to the Lions.

D (5:31)

Obviously McDaniel, you know, it's, it's going to be fun. I think we have a creative play caller with a great set of skill players. And how much will Jim Harbaugh allow McDaniel to sort of run the show to the level of what McDaniel has done in Miami? Because in San Francisco when he was part of the offensive staff, he was just, you know, helping. Now we saw what he was capable of doing with the Dolphins and it was great. You know, I mean we. When you look at the song, some of the things, how it it took place. Tuatanga Vailoa one year under Mike McDaniel led the NFL in passing yards. And we think we'd all agree that Justin Herbert's a much better quarterback and certainly much better passer than Tua. The run game in Miami was special. Raheem Mostert led the NFL in rushing touchdowns one season. Devon H.N. was a fantasy superstar once he got healthy and became the future guy certainly in the passing game. So it's great for Martin Hampton. Tyree Kill was amazing. They don't have that type of player but it's gets has to get you excited about lad McConkey and then at times what we've seen with the tight ends in terms of John New Smith one season, a little bit of Darren Waller this past season, like everything sort of can just fall in line for some great production here. So I moved Herbert up. He wasn't in my top 12. I obviously replaced him with Brock Purdy once the kittle news happened and then just put him. I think I have him as high as six or seven in terms of Herbert. Hampton is borderline first round pick. I know he's a first round pick for you McConkie not in the top 12 but certainly a top 15 wide receiver once again. And Gaston's a top 12 tight end as we just talked about. So lots of love about the, the charger situation for the Lions. I think a lot of people, like looked at the hire and said, oh, this is very uninspiring. And I get it because he didn't do a lot of great things in Arizona. But when you take a step back and look at it, pocket passer and Jacoby Brissette, what did he do? Had that string. I think it was 9 of 10, 10 of 11, 20 plus point games. Jared Goff's obviously a better quarterback than Jacoby Brissette. You look at what he did with Michael Wilson when he had one guy, and you look at what he did with Marvin Harrison when he was healthy. Those receivers played great at times. Wilson obviously a little bit better than Harrison. And then, you know, what Trey McBride did. So you got to be excited about Sam Laporte. And I don't think anything's going to ruin Jameer Gibbs. And if you even take a, you know, broad picture view of the running game there for the Cardinals just this past season, it was almost on a weekly basis where somebody was doing something. It wasn't consistent, but from one player, but it was somebody doing something. Michael Carter, you know, the Amari di Mercado, you know, like it was just a guy stepping up almost on a week to week basis. Jameer Gibbs is a stud. So I think it's fine for the Lions guys. I'm not gonna panic, okay.

C (8:02)

I think what's funny about the Dolphins and. And chargers with Mike McDaniel, the Dolphins have sort of been. The fans anyway, have been haunted by Miami taking Tuatanga by lower fifth and Justin Herbert went sixth. And they've been compared ever since. And it's just been something that has killed the Dolphins fans. And now McDaniel is going to go to the Chargers and work with Justin Herbert. It's poetic and. And painful for Miami fans. All right, we're going to take a break and talk about some vacancies and who we want to see hired. And we'll be right back on Fantasy Football Today Express.

E (8:35)

D (9:20)

Dream scenarios? It's a good question. I think all the guys that are on the, unless I'm missing somebody of the. The big names, are all defensive guys stable. I think the Abel goes to Buffalo. I'm sorry, I. I'm kind of viewing that, like, Josh Allen is making this higher as much as anybody in Buffalo. You know, so Dable, when he was fired from the Giants, I think a lot of people sort of said, okay, McDermott doesn't make a big playoff run. Maybe that's a reunion that happens because a lot of Josh Allen's big success came with not the MVP season, but, you know, a lot of his big success came with Abel and they have a very good relationship. So I think that makes some sense. You know, it'll keep Josh Allen at a level that we like. Hopefully they can, you know, find a receiver. You know, we just got finished talking about Dalton, kk. I think Kincaid will be good no matter who the head coach is there if there is no receiving upgrade. But really, then it'll come down to is, you know, can like, you'd love to see Chris Shula get a job and bring somebody from the Rams offensive staff with him. You know, hopefully that would be a good, a good marriage of whoever, you know, hires him. I think if Flores goes to, I know he just interviewed in Pittsburgh, you know, if he brings somebody, maybe Kevin o' Connell staff offensively, that would be fun also, you know, so some of these teams that we're talking about, you know, he's just mentioned on the full length episode we did on Wednesday about the quarterback openings and how many there are. You know, some of the teams we're talking about here don't have quarterbacks, so we don't know if Brissette will be the quarterback in Arizona. We don't know who the quarterback will be in Pittsburgh, you know, so there's still a lot of things that have to be determined in terms of like what the right marriage will be.

C (10:52)

Absolutely. Okay, well, that's it for fantasy football today. Explorer Press. We'll have more coaching news throughout the off season and we'll react to it. Thanks so much for watching and listening. We'll talk to you later.
