  "account": "In the latest episode of Yahoo Fantasy Football, hosts Josh and Hayden discuss eight wide receivers that are being drafted incorrectly in fantasy leagues. They highlight some surprise picks like Parker Washington and Christian Watson, but also point out training camp insights that are still not fully appreciated by the fantasy football community.\n\nChristian Watson and Parker Washington are two players receiving excessive attention from draft pickers. However, the hosts argue that their performance in training camp has not yet fully translated to their ADP (average draft position) in fantasy leagues.\n\nOther surprising selections include Jordan Addison, Jalen Coker, De Zhaun Stribling, Denzel Boston, Terry McLaurin, Cyrus Allen, Alec Pierce, Courtland Sutton, and Pat Bryant. The hosts emphasize that these players have not yet received the recognition they deserve in terms of their draft positions.\n\nThe episode also features a segment on George Kittle, a notable wide receiver in the NFL. The hosts provide their analysis on his performance and how it may impact his draft status.\n\nThroughout the episode, the hosts emphasize the importance of basing draft decisions on more than just hype or ADP. They encourage fantasy football enthusiasts to consider the players' actual performance and potential based on their experiences at training camp.",
