Alright, listen up, y’all. We gotta figure out this football stuff. My grandson, he’s all into this fantasy football, and he’s got me lookin’ at these two fellas, Javonte Williams and Devin Singletary. Says I gotta help him pick one. Don’t know much about it, but I can tell ya what I see.
Javonte Williams, now, he seems like a strong young fella. Like that bull we had on the farm last year, all muscle and power. But my grandson, he’s frettin’ ’cause this Williams fella, he ain’t been doin’ so hot lately. My grandson says somethin’ ’bout “PPR points” and bein’ ranked low. Sounds like he ain’t gettin’ the ball much or somethin’. And when he does, he ain’t doin’ much with it, see?
- He’s strong, like a bull
- But he ain’t gettin’ many points
- Grandson says he’s ranked low.
Then there’s this Devin Singletary. Now, I don’t know nothin’ about him, but my grandson keeps lookin’ at this thing he calls “ADP”. Says it tells him where other folks are pickin’ these players. Seems like more folks are pickin’ this Singletary fella. Must be a reason for that, right? Folks ain’t dumb, even if they’re playin’ this fancy football game.
My grandson, he keeps readin’ stuff on that phone of his. Talkin’ ’bout “expert advice” and “start or sit.” He’s all worked up tryin’ to figure out if he should start Williams or Singletary this week. And then there’s some other fella, Ty Chandler, he’s talkin’ about now too. Lands sakes, it’s confusin’! Too many names for an old woman like me.
But from what I gather, this Singletary guy, he might be the safer bet. My grandson, he keeps sayin’ Williams ain’t healthy or somethin’. And if a fella ain’t healthy, he ain’t gonna be doin’ much on that football field, now is he? It’s like tryin’ to plow a field with a lame mule. Just ain’t gonna work.
So, if it was me, and I had to pick, I reckon I’d go with the fella that’s healthy and the other folks seem to like. That Singletary fella. Seems like the sensible thing to do. But what do I know? I’m just an old woman tryin’ to make sense of this crazy football game.
My grandson keeps askin’ me, “Grandma, who do I pick? Who do I start?” And I tell him, “Listen here, boy. You gotta go with your gut. But if your gut’s as confused as mine, then go with the fella that’s healthy and the one them experts are talkin’ about.”
He showed me somethin’ called a “side-by-side comparison.” Looked like a bunch of numbers to me. But I saw that Singletary had some bigger numbers in some places. Maybe that means somethin’. I dunno. This fantasy football is harder than churnin’ butter on a hot day.
So, here’s what I’m thinkin’: Singletary seems like the safer pick, especially if this Williams fella ain’t healthy. But you gotta check, my grandson says. Gotta make sure they’re both playin’ and feelin’ good. If they are, and you gotta choose, go with the fella that’s been doin’ better and the one other folks are pickin’. That’s just common sense, now ain’t it? It’s like pickin’ the ripest apple from the tree. You don’t want the one that’s bruised and wormy, do ya?
And another thing, this grandson of mine, he’s always talkin’ ‘bout the “2024 season”. Land sakes, that’s a long ways away! But I guess these young folks are always plannin’ ahead. Me, I’m just tryin’ to figure out what to make for supper tonight. But if you’re plannin’ for the long haul, you gotta pick a fella who’s gonna last. And if Williams ain’t healthy, he ain’t gonna last, now is he?
So there you have it. My two cents on this Javonte Williams and Devin Singletary business. Take it or leave it. I’m just an old woman tryin’ to help her grandson out. But like I said, common sense goes a long way, even in this fancy football game.
