Should You Start or Sit Pat Bryant in Week 1?
Over the past five seasons, once a qualified rookie receiver (minimum eight games), drafted in the third round or later, averaged even 8.5 PPR PPG when playing alongside a quarterback in his first or second season.
Tank Dell in 2023 was the outlier, and he got there on the back of some massive games (three games with over 110 yards and a touchdown) to balance out the duds (under 35 receiving yards in four of 11 games).
That stat is a bit of a mouthful, but it tracks. A bet on Pat Bryant is more of a parlay, as you need him to not only be talented enough to win at the pro level, but you also need him to be a system fit who also meshes well with his developing quarterback.
The idea of Bryant is sound, which is why God created bench space on your roster. He’s a talented kid in an offense I want exposure to, but don’t mistake your four-month projection for Week 1 optimism. This is a wait-and-see situation in which you’re better off being a week or two late rather than early.
