00:00All right, so Miami Dolphins, they paid to, Devon Aiching has been a polarizing figure
00:09when it comes to should you or should you not.
00:11You know what you're getting with Tyreek Hill, a healthy Jalen Waddell, and then Jonu Smith
00:15lining up at the tight end position.
00:17Let's have this conversation, Joe.
00:19Yeah, a lot to unpack here.
00:21Jalen Wright, by the way, also in this conversation because this is a guy that rushed 10 times
00:28for 55 yards and a touchdown yesterday, and a lot of people like him as a running back
00:32as well.
00:33So the one thing we know about the Dolphins is it's all hands on deck, right?
00:36They're going to run fast.
00:38They're going to run efficient.
00:41They're going to put on points.
00:42They're going to be fantastic.
00:44And the only question is what does hold them back?
00:47And typically the what is health.
00:49So I think when you're looking at this current team is the health of Tuatunga Vailoa, can
00:54he stay healthy at a great beginning to the season, kind of faded down the stretch.
01:00Devon Achan, man, what a lottery ticket this guy is.
01:03I think if you're playing in those high stakes leagues, Devon Achan is worth the risk because
01:08the upside is you're crushing life and he is unbelievable.
01:12And I put on some muscle in the offseason.
01:15We'll see if that helps or hurts him.
01:17He is explosive.
01:20He is, he's a guy that averaged over seven yards per carry last year.
01:24Just let that sink in for a moment, right?
01:26We've looked at like four, four and a half, wow, seven, seven.
01:31The problem is, can he stay on the field?
01:34How many games is he going to miss?
01:36Not how many games is he going to play?
01:38And where I find him currently going as the RB 10 overall, it's really rich for my blood.
01:45I look at the Nico Collins and Jalen Waddles typically being on the board in that same
01:50spot.
01:51And I tend to pivot there to the wide receivers because I feel like on a weekly basis, they're
01:54probably going to be there more frequently.
01:57Now are those guys going to have the kind of games that Achan has when he's healthy?
02:01Maybe not.
02:02Maybe they're not going to have those ridiculous 180 and three score kind of games.
02:06And that's what Achan can give you.
02:08People worry about the frame, but the frame is not all that different than Jameer Gibbs.
02:12And yet none of us seem to really care too much about that.
02:14So I don't really get it.
02:15I guess that's where I sort of lose it a little bit there.
02:20I also struggle because if you wait a little bit longer in the next round, you can probably
02:24pick up a boring guy like Rashad White, who's very steady.
02:28And I tend to be somebody that goes for the wide receivers and then give me the boring
02:31steady Rashad Whites, give me Jameer White, give me Romandre Stephens and give me those
02:36good boring running backs that they're going to be the guys that are going to carry the
02:40rock 20 times and fall in the end zone.
02:42I'm good with that.
02:43Maybe they're not going to be explosive and win me the week, but I get it.
02:45I get the appeal with Devon Achan.
02:47I guess the question I'll throw back to you, Matt, is are you somebody in your leagues,
02:51if you're awake for the draft, that is, that are willing to go ahead and draft a guy as
02:56risky with the upside being so clear and the downside being so stark?
