right? Okay,
his right to free speech is it should be protected, like yours
and mine. Everybody should be able to be heard on our
podcast. And that's what I'll do here.
All right, so
he did, he did tweet some concern and at first,
I actually, I was among the people poking fun Hayden know.
Hey, you tried to get his account suspended, we relax
man. And then, and then he wrote this, I don't think he
admitted defeat because here's what, here's what Hayden wings.
He wrote,
he said, let me elaborate Kelsey is 33 years old and had
and the history of Italy tight ends falling off. At this age
has strong over the last four years. Kelsey snap rate has
gradually fallen from 95% to 92% to 86 percent
to eighty two percent in 2021
and Kelsey's yards per game. Last year was the lowest. It's been
since Patrick Mahomes showed up,
that's the same with his yards per route run.
Would it be a surprise
if the Chiefs began saving him?
For the postseason.
I don't think so.
So it goes on to say basically that his preseason usage is
a lot different than it has been during the Mahomes era in
Kansas City. I think that's a good point. I also think
that fancy managers maybe including myself
are underplaying
how different this Casey offense is going to look this year.
Pat they're using
a fullback regularly
in the preseason.
This is something that we did not see during
NG the Tyreke Hill era
and they're using more to tight end sets.
I think that we're going to see less of the Fancy Pants
football that were used to seeing from Andy Reid and and
and more kind of standard stuff and Kelsie,
Kelsie is age, cannot be ignored. So
here's the thing. Hayden was pointing out
and hey, nine-time, Defending Your Right to First Free
Speech. Here is the best I can.
He's pointing out that Kelsey. Kelsey is a tough sell in
the first round considering these factors. And I agree with that.
Yeah, I would never take Travis. See in the first round
this year. It will
totally agree with that. And I've been on the Kelsey is
like, suddenly aging train for y me, not not even that subtly.
We're last year. The RS4 outrun was something that really pops.
Yeah, it was real. It was
a new career Low by
a fairly wide margin, but on this by the same token, you
mentioned the offense is changing. I mean it's changed
to where now the one guy that Patrick Mahomes has established
regular season chemistry with
is Travis Kelce,
I don't think they can like save him. Him for
the postseason because as we know this is the most brutal
Division and football, I don't think they're gonna be able to
like, manage his reps and
even as the snaps decline,
I think it's privacy one of those situations like we're
Jason witten's, snaps decline. Tony Gonzalez has snaps
decline, but their targets does never really declined. And even
if they're explosiveness
declines they're like such a safe receptacle
for short tight, like they just move the chains. Like basically
I will then II really don't I even if the use Edge kind of
dramatically changes. I just don't think the output may be
like, other than the raw
yardage and touchdown totals.
I think the perception of Target totals remain pretty strong.
But, yeah, I do agree.
The upside is not there anymore
to be a first round. He's not like,
he's not tiered above any more
like alone. He's not like one of those like, like, like
primed Rock, even maybe Jimmy Graham were like, he's a tear
alone, himself atop. And there's like a huge positional
advantage to taking
him in the first round. And I would
much rather have Kyle pits in the third round that I would
Travis Kelce in the first I would even rather have Mark
Andrews, who I've expressed concern about the Ravens
offense and,
and Andrews is here
because you're taking Isaiah, likely in the second round, you
left that part out. That's right. I would take him first
overall over CMC and Jonathan Taylor.
I love my bad players. But yeah, it's so so I would take
either Andrews or pits considering their ATP over
Kelsey.
Without blinking, like I think that
Kelsey is being drafted. Probably above is for
Hayden points out in his in his post and his
you want. If you want to call an apology posted everywhere
explanation posts
and he says that if Kelsey's snap share
drops from 8, from eighty-two percent to 75 percent of
whatever this year, he cannot bring back that first round
value.
I don't think he can bring that in the first round. I think,
even if snap percentage decline 7% though, he could get
the same amount of targets. I think it's
like there's this certain players were even as like,
like the Reps like the minutes and basketball, are scaled back
or the endings and baseball are scaled. But they always get
like the important ones though and I do think the targets
will remain fairly study,
but you mentioned kind of pet. I just get more confused every
day with Kyle pits because he's truly like a freak once in
a generation talent but Marcus. Is like defining characteristic
is a pastor was not attempting difficult throws in Tennessee.
It was also kind of Desmond Ritter at Cincinnati. A very,
very safe player, he's gonna be so blanketed all year. I just
don't know what to think with this young man. Yeah, you
didn't see the Highlight from
well I did I did I mean what in the world was that it's pretty
sick?
No Peyton has ever moved like that, never not even close. No
actually
not maybe Tony Gonzalez like way back in the day.
Wait. Way back in the day, Tony Gonzalez. All due respect
is a plumber compared to the Kyle now.
