Tee Higgins, Top Receivers of 2024 and The Florida State Problem | December 2nd, 2023 Mailbox

"Should I start Tee Higgins in my fantasy league?"

First off, let me start with this, my fucking fantasy team is garbo and I have no clue how to pick anything any more, I thought having Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase would put me in first place easily and of course they shit the bed the first few weeks, then Burrow goes down. I am going to do my very best to predict Tee Higgins' fantasy outlook here.

Higgins is coming off a hamstring injury that held him out of last week's game against the Steelers. Higgins has been a struggle all season with only 2 games over 80 yards and with Jake Browning at the helm, it's going to be really hard for me to believe in even Ja'Marr Chase much less Tee Higgins, even though the Jaguars pass defense is 28th in the league in pass yards per game, Higgins could push to a flex starter, but even that is a stretch, I would look to a guy with a better QB and higher upside.

"How do you rank the top wide receivers that are expected to enter the draft?"

Due to limited time, I'm going to give explanations for 3 of the top 5 and rank the rest.

Before we get into this, Marvin Harrison Jr is the #1 because I'm a Colts fan, plus the guy is a monster.

The bigger the better, hand skills can be taught but size can't be and standing at 6 foot 7 inches, Johnny Wilson can very easily become a monster in the league IF he is used right, his speed with his size can become deadly.

Xavier Legette has made his name as being a reliable receiver for future Titans backup QB Spencer Rattler and with his size and hands, his side line play can become a major threat for anyone who takes the field with him.

1. Marvin Harrison Jr.

2. Malik Nabers

3. Xavier Legette

4. Rome Odunze

5. Johnny Wilson

"What do you think happens if Florida State squeaks this out?"

Alabama F U C K E D Florida State and possibly Washington, we know how the CFP committee is, if it's even a coin flip they will give it to the SEC.

Before the ACC Championship game started, I was pretty convinced that Florida State wasn't in, no matter what. Michigan IS #1 right now. #2-#4 is a fucking mess. A ton of people think Washington is a lock right now but I can't even lock them in although they SHOULD be a lock. You can't leave the SEC Champion out of the playoff even with 1 loss, you just can't, the SEC will and should take precedent over the Pac 12 and the ACC. If Bama gets in, Texas has to be in, they beat Bama even if it was earlier this year but you can also say their loss to Oklahoma could be the nail in their coffin since it was later in the year. Washington is an undefeated Pac 12 Champion in a year where the Pac 12 was the talk of the college football world, again, they should be a lock. What the rankings should be right now, #1 Michigan, #2 Washington, #3 Texas and #4 Alabama. What we aren't talking about is FSU's cupcake schedule, obviously, these teams aren't the same team they were when FSU played them but right now there are only 2 ranked teams on their schedule and that could be the killer. The ACC is a mid tier conference, if Jordan Travis was playing they would have been a lock but considering their play against Louisville, you can't put them in. Now Georgia could easily get the benefit of the doubt considering a 20+ game win streak, back to back National Titles AND is in the SEC. My thought is, the committee is going to find a way to get 2 SEC teams in and leave Washington out, #1 Michigan, #2 Texas, #3 Alabama and #4 Georgia to both get a rematch of earlier this year and keep Georgia and Alabama from playing 2 weeks in a row.

It's wrong, but nobody can convince me that it won't happen
