It's a great Russian ecosystem.

We know that last year.

Obviously, it produced this monster season for Rahim Moser to produce some monster weeks for Devon A chain.

They were fifth in Russian success rate fifth in Russian EPA.

And it is interesting.

I'm glad you brought them up because I, I can't quite get my, I can't quite get my bearings on how I feel about this group as A, as a unit because like you look at Early Fantasy A P, it's pretty clear how people feel about this.

Like Devon Aan is gonna take over the show.

He's 1/20 overall player off the board uh in early basketball draft.

I'm like, you gotta go way down like we're talking past Tony Pollard Devante Williams to get to Raheem Mostert as the 95th overall player off the board.

I can't imagine that's actually gonna hold up when we get to real drafts in August and like people that had Raheem Mostert on their Fantasy team last year, I think he's gonna, I mean, he's not gonna go behind Devote Williams.

I just can't imagine that that's gonna hold up forever.

Um But for, for now, for this time being that is what it is.

So that, that indicates to me jorge that everything you said about which is true with Raheem Mostert outlier year, he's not gonna have that again.

There is a severe injury history here.

Early drafters are, are pretty much not just taking that into account, potentially even overemphasizing that to the point where he's fallen down to the 95th overall all player here.

But I I have to imagine that a chan is not, he doesn't really profile like any of these guys that, that are going a high up in here.

Like I don't think he's gonna have the same workload as like a Kyron Williams.

I think he's gonna have the same workload as like a Travis Etienne.

Certainly not like a Derek Henry even, you know, Josh Jacobs or Isaiah Pacheco who go much later, right?

So in, in, in like your mind's eye, how do you envision like the workload splitting out for these two guys to both give like to give us usability out of both of these players.

One of the growth um aspects for Devo, a chan I think is gonna be um I mean, I think it's going to be in the passing game.

I mean, he just, he, he was somewhat of a factor but I think he's going to become more of a factor there.

So I think there's a grow the the thing and he, I think he's going to be on the field more.

Um, he only had four games with the A fa snap show over 50% out of four out of the 11 games that he appeared in.

So, um, I, I think just being on the field a little, a bit more is gonna, is gonna, gonna help him.

I mean, he's such, he's so explosive.

I mean, his yards per attempt were 7.5 yards, which is Ridic for that led all players with 100 plus carries and the number two guy was Jalen Warren who was at 5.2.

So, I mean, he was almost lapping the field, but, um, I think he's going to have a little bit more.

Um, I don't know how much he's going to get up up close.

Um I think it might be most are getting, getting some of the carries.

Um, so most of the carries inside in the red zone and especially inside the five, you know, when, when you're talking and when you talk about the, the, uh ad P for most or, I mean, it's like if you get eight games, 10 games out of him, I think you, I mean, I think you win that ad P at that point because basically you're, you're looking at, if you go with a hero RB approach where you grab, you know, one of the, one of the, let's say you grab one of the big four or five, guys that in the first two rounds and then you just wait on, wait on running back and Raheem Mustard is maybe your second or third running back at that point.

I'll take that discount, I'll take that discount and I'll just, I'll start him every week in that offense in that ecosystem sign me up, especially considering the fact that Miami was so explosive, especially in the first half of the, uh of the season.
