1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,239 Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy pros. This is the Fantasy 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: Football Podcast as me Joey P Joe Pisapia, and it's 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: time to look ahead to the waiver wire for Week 4 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: three in the NFL. There were, oh, I don't know, 5 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: one or two major injuries potentially in Week two. Certainly 6 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: a lot to digest, but luckily we've got the athletics 7 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: Jake Sealy here to help us real quick. Get the 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 1: names you need on your waiver wire onto your team. Jake. 9 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: Always good to see you, my friend. And of course 10 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: I guess we've got to start here with the Green 11 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 1: Bay Packers because Jaden Reid is going to be out 12 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: for a few weeks with the collarbone issue. Matthew Golden 13 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: still a rookie working his way. It looks like it 14 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: might be time to once again take a look at 15 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: Romeo Dobbs, who was rostered in twenty three percent of leagues. 16 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 1: Let's start there, and also give me your expectations for 17 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: Matthew Golden's potential upside, because I feel like he's an 18 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: interesting by low. I know it's the waiver wire video, 19 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: don't tell anybody we might talk a little trade two. 20 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a really good point as well. 21 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 2: So we'll talk Golden in a second. But Romeo dobbson 22 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 2: actually surprise they still under thirty percent because it was 23 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: on a lot of waiver columns, including my own last week, 24 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 2: because the first week he was running as the one 25 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 2: or the one and the two with Red and then 26 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: the fact with Matthew Golden was like, okay, well, no 27 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 2: matter what happens, whatever shakes out, Dobbs is still going 28 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 2: to be the two read. It's still going to be 29 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 2: the eleven slot wide receiver. He's going to be out 30 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: there for three wide and he's not going to be 31 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: the main one too. It's still very productive on a 32 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 2: per touch basis. But the one and two one answer 33 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 2: was clear Dobbs, and now we have the elimination of 34 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: read on top of it, so I think it just 35 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: makes it even clear, like Dobbs is still going to 36 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 2: be frustrating. He wasn't even out there for eighty percent 37 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: of the routes. There's still going to be games where 38 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: he leaves you alone. But it's a wide receiver four 39 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: and it's somebody that you can go pick up for 40 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: free and possibly put in your line up. I had 41 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 2: him in one of my lineups last week for those 42 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 2: ten points and wasn't amazing, but it was valuable. And 43 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 2: I'm really glad you brought up Matthew Golden because I 44 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 2: know a lot of people might have not watched the 45 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 2: entire game or watching only parts of it or whatever 46 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 2: it might be. But I know you saw the same thing. 47 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: Matthew Golden was this far one way and this far 48 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: the other way from having over one hundred yards and 49 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 2: a touchdown from being overthrown and underthrown. So I think 50 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 2: the chances that Golden sees it uptick is interesting because 51 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: he did rotate with Wis, but he's still on the 52 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: field a lot more than Wis. 53 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, to me, Golden also a rookies, so he gotta 54 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: be more patient with those guys. But look, right now, 55 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: the supply is there of target volume, so look to 56 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: buy low because the first two week performances haven't been great, 57 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 1: so people might lose patience early on. All right, let's 58 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 1: talk about another receiver here. Let's talk about Troy Franklin 59 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 1: of the Denver Broncos. Franklin so far this year has 60 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: seen fifteen targets and he's caught twelve of them already. 61 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: He had a touchdown on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts. 62 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: He is Rosster percentage again very low, under ten percent 63 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: over on Sleeper eight percent, so he's widely available, basically 64 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: a free square. How aggressive should people be on Troy 65 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: Franklin in week three? 66 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: I'm going as aggressives if I am for Dobbs, honestly, 67 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 2: and it comes down to the fact that, oh, by 68 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: the way, who is the leading route runner and they 69 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 2: can target getter. In week two it wasn't Cortland s 70 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 2: And no, I don't think he's coming for Courtland Sutton's job. 71 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: But I don't know if you heard that these guys were, 72 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: you know, teammates in college, the Troy Franklin boy Nick Bonicks. 73 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 2: I think they roomed together and bunk together, and get 74 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: lunched together and breakfast together, and took their dogs on 75 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 2: walks and. 76 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,839 Speaker 1: Long walks on the beach together. It's it's beautiful things. 77 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 2: But like the connections really there, the hard boys solving 78 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: the crypt seats their cript sheets or seat sheets or 79 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,399 Speaker 2: seats whatever. I can't talk. 80 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: I know. 81 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 2: The interesting thing here is that we were trying to 82 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: figure out who the two was and now Mims is 83 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 2: completely droppable. I know he caught the touchdown, but that 84 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: was two targets, two receptions, a touchdown. He was only 85 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: out there for fifty percent. Like week one came out 86 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: and Franklin is barely ahead of Mims. It's like, all right, 87 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 2: let's give it another week. He is clearly, by far 88 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 2: way ahead of Mims. He is the one and the 89 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 2: two with Sutton. I think Sutton's a good byelog because 90 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: I know people are probably panicking. But Troy Franklin, that 91 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 2: connections there with the one year of being a rookie 92 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 2: like baitically took a back seat to everybody, and deservedly so. 93 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 2: Some time to develop, and it's hitting, and it's hitting 94 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: probably quicker than I expected, but I would be as 95 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: aggressive if Dobbs is already rostered. Franklin's gonna get probably 96 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 2: mid teens to close to twenty percent of my budget. 97 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: All right, let's switch gears from wide receivers to a 98 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: running back here, Blake Koram and discuss him of the 99 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: Los Angeles rams. He saw five carries for forty four yards, 100 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: had a touchdown. Let's talk about his value potentially going 101 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: forward to what this Rams backfield is going to look. 102 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 2: Like yeah, and this isn't like somebody that I necessarily 103 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: think will fall into the Benson time share where you 104 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: might get RB three value in the right week. I'm 105 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 2: not going that far just yet. But running backs thin, 106 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: we haven't had very many injuries. It just won so far. 107 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 2: Really that hurt us and it wasn't even the lead 108 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: running back. And as just the fact that if something 109 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: happens to Karen Williams, it is one hundred percent clear 110 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: that Korum's the backup plan, not Darko's hunter. And that's why, 111 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 2: because we know how valuable the running back for the 112 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 2: Rams will be. If anything were to happen, it might 113 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: be a Tyler Algier situation like this we just saw yesterday. 114 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: Maybe he gets a few touches some weeks and he's like, hey, 115 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: you got the touchdown or got you five Fantasy points 116 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 2: and non you know, six or seven and a half 117 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: point PPR. And there'll be weeks like that if if 118 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: Kiren stays healthy. But the upside is there, and you know, 119 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: I know he got the touchdown when they already had 120 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 2: a big lead, but a lot of the starters were 121 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: still in the field too. It wasn't like it was 122 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 2: complete mop up duty, like Kyroen actually came back in 123 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 2: the game after that. So, like I said, I'm not 124 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 2: worried about Kien Williams. I actually think this would be 125 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 2: a bi low situation if people are panicking of this usage. 126 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: But the usage is why I'm going after Korum and 127 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 2: the fact that we now know this is one of 128 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: the if we did a ranking show, you and I 129 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 2: have like top five handcuffs, Blake Korm would probably be 130 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 2: top five and possibly pushing top three. 131 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: And look at thirteen percent roster too, especially in those 132 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: fourteen team leagues or anything deeper, like he should be 133 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: rostered by now. If he's not, so go get him 134 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: in the fact that it's only fourteen percent tells you 135 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: like he's still floating out there even in some deeper leagues. 136 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: And to Jake's point, you know, not every situation where 137 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: a running back goes down does it turn over to 138 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: somebody capable. Sometimes it goes to the committee. Quorum would 139 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: clearly be the guy quote unquote. Sure he would split 140 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: some carries here and there, but he would be the guy. 141 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: And he looked very capable on Sunday, So that is 142 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: a good thing. Before we get to more names on 143 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 1: our list, I want to recognize today's sponsor, and that 144 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,239 Speaker 1: is Chalkboard.

Let's talk about quarterback zero percent 158 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: roster zero. You don't see that very often, Jake Browning. 159 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: He's going to be playing for months now. Unless the 160 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: Bengals go out there and make a trade. I don't 161 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: know where they would make a trade for a quarterback 162 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: or who that would be. You want to bring back 163 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton for good old time's sake. I don't think so, right, 164 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be Jake Browning, who Look, they won 165 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 1: the game, right, He had some moments in that game, 166 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: but he's a backup for a reason. So let's talk 167 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: about this in these super flex contexts that it's based in, right, 168 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: because that's what we're talking about. So if you're the 169 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow manager, what do you do here? Like, do 170 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: you have to empty the tank here for Jake Browning 171 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: to stay afloat? Use for a friend named Joe Pizapia. 172 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: I will say, you said super flex and he is 173 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 2: now retired. But I will say not so fast, my friend, 174 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 2: because I actually think there's one quarterback viability with him. 175 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 2: I went back and looked because I'm like, I remember 176 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: he was pretty damn good, and I check this out. 177 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: You wanted this game log, by the way, when he 178 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: took over as a starter for two years ago. And 179 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: it's not like this is a different Bengals team. I 180 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 2: know some of it, but I mean I'm talking about 181 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: the offensive weapons in coast. Yeah. Yeah, So first start 182 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 2: he ever had to face was Pittsburgh. He was QB 183 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 2: eighteen with fifteen points after that against Jacksonville thirty for 184 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 2: QB four, Indy twenty nine for QB four, Minnesota twenty 185 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 2: five for QB eight, Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, by the way, 186 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 2: twenty for a rebound kind of performance only QB twenty one. 187 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 2: The full slate of teams were out there at Kansas 188 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: City twenty four for QB eight and at or No 189 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 2: home to Cleveland twenty four for QB nine. The only 190 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 2: two games where he wasn't the top ten quarterback was 191 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and in Pittsburgh. And I'm not saying go crazy 192 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: for Joe Burrow in one quarterback league, but if I 193 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,679 Speaker 2: lost Joe Burrow, Jake Jake brown Sorry, if I lost 194 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow in a one quarterback league, let alone with 195 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 2: super flex and the waiver wires are like these cam 196 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 2: Wards and C. J. Strouds and those are the worlds. Well, 197 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna shoot for Jake Browning because I'm trying 198 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: to replicate what I lost in Joe Burrow and you're 199 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: just not going to do that with what most is 200 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 2: out there right now. I'm expecting on most waiver wires, 201 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 2: like Matthew Stafford, he's not going to do it for you. 202 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 2: So I'm going to go aggressive in one quarterback. You know, 203 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 2: I'm not going to blow my entire budget, but i'd 204 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: probably go like twenty twenty five percent super flex dropping 205 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 2: the bag. Like if you have zero dollar bids, I'm 206 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: probably going one hundred percent Joe because you cannot risk 207 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: I'm not getting Jake Browning. 208 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I understand. I wish I had more free 209 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: agent budget left. I took a took a heavy fly 210 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: earlier year and running back that I thought might work 211 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: out and it did not. But you know what, like 212 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: if you look at it too, it's not like the 213 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: Bengals don't have the weapons around him, you know, Jamar 214 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: chast Higgins, Chase Brown. I wish I had a better 215 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: offensive line. So does Joe Burrow right about now. But 216 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: it's just sad. Like the Joe Burrow injury just makes 217 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: me sad. So I don't want to talk about it anymore. 218 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: Let's talk about like aomanor one of our favorite things. 219 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: We've been talking about this guy forever. I talked about 220 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: him in draft season, I talked about him in Dynasty 221 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: draft season. I talked about him even in Week one 222 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: with you before things kicked off here on the waiver wire, 223 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: we said, stash this guy and aomanor at twenty eight 224 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: percent rostered. Clearly, people really still are not paying attention. 225 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: So what do we have to do to get him 226 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: on people's rosters? How do we sell people at this point? 227 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 2: So when I have my waiverclumn over the athletic that 228 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 2: I started using emojis a few years ago because at 229 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: some point, like there's nothing left to say, so I 230 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 2: just made the like the little huffy face emoji because 231 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 2: it's like I told you so, I don't know what 232 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 2: else to say to convince you to pick this person up. 233 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 2: We're not quite there yet. I understand why the hesitancy 234 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 2: has been there on au Manor. But let's loop in 235 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: one more and you included his roster. Perciage to Cedric 236 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 2: Tillman is still available in forty six percent of leagues. 237 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: Like Cedric Tillman's getting the full blow huffy emoji, Like, 238 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 2: I don't know what else to tell you, And no, 239 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: I don't expect a rebound touchdown to happen every single week. No, 240 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 2: but he's running as the one and the week one. 241 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 1: Usage was very good too. 242 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 243 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: Well, he got a little lucky in Week two. Okay, cool, 244 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 1: but ao man Or. We all knew Week one was 245 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: gonna be a disaster against the Denver secondary exactly against 246 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: the Rams, a still pretty good defense for us. I 247 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: will say this targets in a touchdown. 248 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 2: I was gonna go one step further Joe to say, like, okay, 249 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 2: I will pick up both. If you haven't yet, please 250 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 2: pick up both. I like Tilman more than au Manor 251 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 2: for the long term. However, not so fast, my friend. 252 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 2: For the second time in the show. 253 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 3: Uh. 254 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 2: Week three, Cleveland gets Green Bay, Tennessee gets Indianapolis. I 255 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 2: think I'm gonna be ranking au Manor ahead of Tilman 256 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 2: at least for one week, just based on those matchups. 257 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 2: That's how much I think of Ilu Maner's potential. Is 258 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: that I don't think their gap is much bigger. I 259 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 2: would take Tuman for the year, but there's close enough 260 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 2: that in this week, with those two matchups, I'm rather 261 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: taking au Manor. I guess Indianapolis all right. 262 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: And if you don't think that iom man Or is 263 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: a smart ad, well, I got news for you. He is. 264 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: Don't miss out on snagging potential difference makers like him. 265 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: Use the Waivers Central tool over fantasypros dot com, slash 266 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: my playbook, or just download the Fantasy Pros app and 267 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: instantly view all the suggestions on who you should add 268 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: or drop to your rosters. And of course we usually 269 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: talk about five guys. We kind of just lamented about 270 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: a six, but you know, hey, we're the gift that 271 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: keeps on giving here on the show. So let's talk 272 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: about Chris Rodriguez too, a guy who's rostered in about, oh, 273 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, nine percent of leagues as well. Right now. 274 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: Chris Rodriguez obviously was in active the last two games 275 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: because there were too many cooks in the kitchen with 276 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: that commander's backfield. So with Austin Eckler now done for 277 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,319 Speaker 1: the year, Chris Rodriguez gets an opportunity again. What does 278 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: that role look like and what does the fab big 279 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,559 Speaker 1: look like? For Rodriguez? 280 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 2: The fab BID's probably like two or three bucks, like 281 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 2: nine percentage. Like, I'm just gonna take a chance because 282 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 2: we've already seen two weeks. And yes, we all expect 283 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: krossky Merritt to start to get more of the workload, 284 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 2: but what if it's only ten or twenty percent. Well, 285 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: if this is a full blown committee and all that 286 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 2: talk about the goal line opportunities and the short yardage 287 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 2: actually goes to Chris Rodriguez now that he's active, I'll 288 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 2: bring in the Jacksonville Jaguars because once you cleared out 289 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 2: one option, that being Tank Bigsby. Look at Tuton's usage yesterday, 290 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 2: like his Tuton's juicers in week one, it was very low. 291 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: They get one of the equations out of there and 292 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 2: it bumps up, and I know that this is somebody 293 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 2: who's been inactive. But the point being is like Tuton 294 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: was barely used in week one, So I just say 295 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 2: take the chance because if Chris Ryder late, Let's put 296 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 2: it this way, we'll kind of play forecasting in two 297 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 2: week four. If Chris Rodriguez first game active, gets ten carries, 298 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 2: McNichol stays in his little I get a couple passing 299 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 2: downs and pass catching opportunities, and Krossky Merritt stays the same, 300 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 2: and those ten opportunities tune into fifty yards. But the 301 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 2: touchdown and it's not Krosskey Merritt at the goal line. 302 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 2: Chris Rodriguez is going to go for twenty thirty percent 303 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 2: on week five. So that's why I say our week 304 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 2: four yeah, heading into week four, So that's why I say, 305 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 2: go take a flyer on him now while he's super cheap, 306 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 2: just in case. 307 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: Or you could be a dope like me who dropped 308 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: him Thursday night because I wanted some extra tight end 309 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: insurance because I had Rock Valley. Yeah, but Jay, I know, Jake, 310 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: but I'm still mad about it. I feel like everything 311 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: that I touched on the waiver wire is how. 312 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 2: Dare you not see Austin Eckler blowing his achilles? 313 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: I can't. But at the same time, it's frustrating because 314 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: you're like, hey, this was a smart late round draft 315 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: pick or stash or whatever. 316 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 2: Hey, do you want to I'll give you one and 317 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 2: make you feel better. I stashed Troy Franklin in a 318 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 2: ton of leagues, and this past week in one of 319 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 2: the leagues that I had zero running backs left on 320 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 2: my bench because I just lost Austin Eckler. I dropped 321 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 2: Troy Franklin for Roshawn Johnson because Manangai got zero use 322 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 2: in week one. I'm like, hey, just a case, you 323 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: never know what if Roshaw's I wish I could have 324 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: Troy Franklin back right now, because now I'm gonna have 325 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 2: to go spend twenty five to get him back. 326 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: Misery loves company, and we love all of you to 327 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: be our company.
