Okay, so I’ve been messing around with my fantasy football lineup, and I’ve got this dilemma: Jake Ferguson or Dalton Schultz? It’s been driving me nuts, so I decided to really dig in and figure it out.
First, I watched a bunch of their game footage. Just straight-up eyeballed it. I wanted to see how they moved, how they caught the ball, and just get a general feel for their play style. Ferguson, he’s a bit more, I don’t know, explosive? Like he can really jump for the ball. Schultz, he’s more of a reliable, steady kind of guy. Gets the job done, you know?
Then, I started looking at their stats. Last season’s numbers, targets, receptions, touchdowns, all that good stuff. I put them side-by-side in a little note on my phone to easily comparision. It wasn’t super scientific, just basic numbers to see who was getting more action.
- Checked targets per game.
- Compared reception percentages.
- Looked at red zone targets, cause that’s where the touchdowns happen!
After that, I checked out some expert rankings. You know, those fantasy football gurus who supposedly know everything. I didn’t just blindly follow them, but I wanted to see what their general consensus was. Were they leaning towards Ferguson or Schultz? It was interesting to see how my own observations lined up with theirs.
Next, I thought about the quarterbacks throwing to them. A good quarterback can make a tight end look amazing, and a bad one… well, you get the picture. So, I considered the Cowboys’ and Texans’ offensive situations. Dak Prescott is back, that’s good for Ferguson. And, The Texans, They have the new guy.
My Conclusion (for now!)
Honestly, it’s still a tough call. But after all this digging, I’m leaning slightly towards Ferguson. He seems to have a higher ceiling, more potential for those big, game-changing plays. Schultz is probably the safer bet, but I’m feeling a little risky this week. I might change my mind five more times before the game, but for now, Ferguson is in my lineup!
I will see how the game is going. Then I can get the final answer.
