WEBVTT - Aloe Vera Players 0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:04.160 Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly, a production of I Heart Radio. 0:00:06.280 --> 0:00:09.640 Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from I Heart Radio, 0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:13.400 your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy football advice 0:00:13.440 --> 0:00:16.680 and speculation and whatever stupid stuff they decided to drop 0:00:16.720 --> 0:00:22.560 into the show. Now, here's your host. It's Fantasy Football Weekly. 0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:28.160 I am Paul Charchy and co host today is Ryan Johnson. 0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:31.479 What's up charge. I am happy to report I was 0:00:31.560 --> 0:00:34.720 not pulled over on the way over here today the 0:00:34.800 --> 0:00:37.600 last time. That's all right, exactly. I gotta I got 0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:41.160 a parking ticket since we talked last. They still get 0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:43.400 those out, they do, and you know it's you know, 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:46.560 they used the electronic app for the parking spots in 0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:50.919 Minneapolis downtown Minneapolis. So I'd set it for two hours 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.240 and I'm at a concert and then I can feel 0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.120 my phone buzz after two hours, which is it notifying me, Hey, 0:00:56.120 --> 0:00:58.120 your time is out? Do you want to re up it? 0:00:58.680 --> 0:01:04.240 But the act that I'm seeing had the lead singer 0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:06.160 and said we're gonna play two more songs. So I'm like, 0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:10.200 I'm asking it. Yeah, came out bang ticket right there, 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:12.119 and I'm like, you must have just written it, because 0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.400 it was it was like ten twelve minutes later, House 0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.720 always wins hot sees. How much does a parking ticket 0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:20.840 go for these days? You know, I'm not positive. Ye 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:23.200 I haven't paid it yet, but I'm bracing for like 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:26.880 eighty five bucks, which is my it's my hunch as 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:28.640 to what it will cost. Can I tell you a 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:32.679 quick parking ticket story? Uh? So it's the off season. 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.520 I hate to admit this, but uh, I grew up 0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:38.319 in New Jersey. So summertimes in New Jersey go to 0:01:38.319 --> 0:01:41.520 the ocean, of course, and so people yeah, no, I 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:45.240 would go there. That basically hell it was then, and 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.000 it was. It's not the nicer part of the shore 0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:50.280 in my opinion anyway. What people would do, and I 0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:53.760 may have done it once, is uh all the good. 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.520 You see someone with a parking ticket, you take that 0:01:56.760 --> 0:01:59.840 and you call it on your car. It always like 0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:04.160 a nine. They weren't. Really that's sneaky, you know. I 0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:06.000 think something did it to me. So that's how I 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.880 learned about them, Like, well, I gotta gotta you gotta 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:10.400 pay it forward. Is that pay you forward? Is that 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:13.560 paying it backwards? Question? Think you're paying that backwards. But 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:16.639 there's my penance. I got it off my chest with them. Wow, 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:19.639 so somebody took your ticket, moved it onto their car. 0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:21.960 You don't even know you got the ticket. Then you 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:24.160 get pulled over two years later like you got an 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:28.440 outstanding ward for your rest likething about this. I hope 0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:31.640 that guy's not listening to it would be funny if 0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:35.320 somebody was. If you were that guy that got a 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:38.120 ticket that you didn't know about on the Jersey Shore, 0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:43.839 like ten years ago, twenty years ago. Brian Johnson good 0:02:44.800 --> 0:02:46.840 t x J. A lot of Brian Johnson's out there, 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:52.600 thankfully exactly.

We encourage you to 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:10.840 subscribe to that. Okay, let's dive into our ala Vera players. 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.200 I've got five, you've got four, so I will go first, 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:18.200 begin at the quarterback position, and Derek Carr he burned 0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:20.960 you last year. He was a quarterback thirteen, which actually 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:22.800 was about where he was drafted and maybe even little 0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:26.280 higher than where he was drafted. But he only had 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:31.200 the twenty three touchdowns. That's very Teddy Bridgewater and you know, 0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:35.080 for comparison, Taylor Heinek and twenty in a partial season, 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:40.000 Derek Card twenty three. But the reason I'm very optimistic 0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:43.280 he threw the fifth most passes last year and had 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:46.400 the fifth most yards. They had almost a five thousand 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:52.120 yard passing season, Brian and of course obviously the new weapons. Right, 0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:54.120 So I mean last year he managed to get the 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.480 fifth most yards out of Hunter Renfroze, A Jones and 0:04:56.520 --> 0:05:00.719 Brian Edwards missing his top two weapons and Foster Moreau 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:02.920 tight end for a lot of the year, and yet 0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:05.839 he was still able to get to the fifth most yards. 0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:09.800 So now he gets Davante Adams, the league's most prolific 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:13.880 scoring receiver. And I think the touchdowns jumped from twenty 0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:16.359 three to what do you think for for Derek Carr? 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:19.800 Where can that touchdown? We all everybody thinks the touchdowns 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.960 are gonna go up? How far up? I said a 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:26.000 conservative floor at thirty five. But he has forty plus 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:29.560 upside for sure if I think they remains healthy, right, yeah, 0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:31.960 And he does have forty upside the way the way 0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:35.040 Renfroe came on and like he said, Davante Adams now 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.960 Derren Bawlers healthy. Yeah, I mean it's Enyan Drake. I 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.600 know he's not nearly his lethal weapon, but he missed 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.560 most of last year. He's a great receiving back. So yeah, 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.240 they all stay healthy. So even if Cars somehow doesn't 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.080 have even with all these new weapons, let's just say 0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:52.400 he's still has the fifth most yards passing. I don't 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.599 need that to change. I just need the touchdowns to change. 0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:57.400 And I think he gets into the mid thirties and 0:05:57.400 --> 0:05:59.800 that turns it into what should be closer to QB 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:04.240 five Q'B six this year for Derek carr Our first 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:08.680 alo vera player. Who do you have next? I'm going 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:12.880 wide receiver? And Alan Robinson who finished like wide receiver 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:17.920 one hundred last year. Just a brutal season for Robinson 0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:19.840 with the Bears. He did miss five games, but he 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:23.200 played in twelve. That's enough to uh qualify him which 0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:25.839 she should not be receiver one hundred on twelve games 0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:27.919 played as a starting receiver in the NFL and just 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.880 sixties six targets in those twelve games. That's five and 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:33.719 a half per game. Uh. It was just again just 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:36.039 a bad, bad year for a rob But you know 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:39.159 who else was bad the Bears from top to bottom, 0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:41.920 from that naggy to the quarterback situation. Whether there's Andy 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:46.360 Dalton justin fields in his rookie year. But Robinson doesn't 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.440 have to worry about that anymore because now he is 0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:51.680 on the Rams where he'll jump right in as l 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:55.400 a's second wide receiver alongside Cooper Cup. Of course, Robert 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:58.800 Woods now in Tennessee Odell Beckham on the men from 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:01.200 the torn Achilles or a c L I didn't recall 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:02.400 at the top of my head. He might. He might 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:04.840 even be resigned by the Rams, So he's of no 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:08.279 concern here. Uh So, Woods and Beckham they combined for 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:11.680 one hundred and seventeen targets last year, basically splitting that 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:14.760 time and a half. Yet, and uh I think that's 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:17.680 a safe estimate for for Alan Robinson. Will you give 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.600 him a hundred seventeen targets? He ought to be able 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:25.360 to catch seventy five to eighty of those targets and 0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:27.480 now it's game on for Robinson. That puts him into 0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:30.360 the thousand yard territory. Yeah, Robert Woods was wide receiver 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:33.520 twelve in weeks one through nine before he was injured. 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:35.720 Then from weeks twelve to the end of the season, 0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:37.960 after Odell Beckham was traded to the Rams. He was 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:41.280 wide receiver thirteen, so I would not have guessed he 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:44.200 was quite that high. Robinson, he does turn twenty nine 0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:46.160 in August, but he has some gas left in the tank. 0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:49.880 And you know he's excited because he has never played 0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:53.440 with a quarterback anywhere near the level of Matthew Staffords. 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:56.640 He's gonna be like, what is this spiral that's coming 0:07:56.680 --> 0:07:58.920 my way? Oh my god, it's right in the numbers. 0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:01.600 What do I do to be psyched? I'm excited for 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:06.080 him because he's an elite talent. It was still is. 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:09.760 I think there's an outside chance maybe even outproduces teammate 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.400 Cooper Cup this year. Who knows. I think he has 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:15.520 that potential. I mean, I don't know. I didn't do that. 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:18.240 I'm one based on ADP. I mean, you're you know 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:21.360 Cooper Cup. He's like, yeahs going off the board in 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.240 the first five picks of if it's super flexed. Maybe 0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:26.360 a little bit later, but yeah, one quarterback leaves and 0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:29.200 Robinson is, uh going fourth round now. He was like 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:32.280 ninth round before the trade. So if you're drafting early 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:34.280 like me and scooping up robins and you're you're feeling 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:40.120 pretty good. My next alo Vera player is Kenny Golladay, 0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:45.800 who Dave Getleman's departing gift to Giants fans was Golladay's 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:49.960 horrific contract, counting seventy one million over four years, and 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.679 he was brutal last year. In fact, the last two 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.800 years have been tough. Two years ago in Detroit it 0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:59.400 was just a lost season due to injury. But last 0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:04.160 year Ken Golladay only missed three games and somehow finished 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:09.840 as wide receiver eight six with zero touchdowns, scored zero 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:13.959 who he only had one game over sixty four yards 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:18.280 and none topping fifty three yards after Week four. It's 0:09:18.280 --> 0:09:21.920 just Golladay was unstartable, as it turned out, for most 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:24.480 of the season. So why will he get any better? 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:27.040 For Golliday, we've established that he burned you last year. 0:09:27.520 --> 0:09:30.320 How will he be an al o Vera player. Well, first, 0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:34.160 he's gonna roll into this year fully healthy, unlike last year. 0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:36.560 He rolled into last year hurt and he played like 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.280 somebody who was playing hurt all year long. Golladay has 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.760 got the history of the soft tissue injuries let's just 0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:43.840 hope that doesn't come back, but he will be healthy. 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:47.920 At this point, he's gets a presumed massive upgrade in 0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:53.240 coaching from Joe Judge and Jason Garrett to Brian Dable, 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:56.800 who's obviously been able to get great years out of 0:09:56.840 --> 0:10:00.920 wide receivers like Stefan dig former Bill's offensive course An. Yet, yes, 0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:04.520 and Kenny Golliday is a good receiver. I mean, there's 0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:08.280 only two seasons removed from a twelve hundred yard eleven 0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:14.720 touchdown season on a three win Lions team, So it's 0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:17.640 only Colliday is suddenly a bad receiver. And he's still young, 0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:21.640 by the way, So there's if you believe Golliday is 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:24.400 still can be a good player who's now healthy, and 0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:26.520 that this offense is going to get better with better coaching, 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.760 there's a ton of upside for Kenny Golladay. I agree, 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:33.000 And uh, you know what, why don't we just stay 0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:37.600 with the New York Football Giants Because he was gonna say, 0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:39.360 but I know where you're going with on my list. 0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:43.160 You finished outside uh the top running backs, probably maybe 0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:46.240 even outside the top thirty forty. A lot went wrong 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:49.800 for him, but really it was it was his first 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:53.480 year off the form a c L and usually running 0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:55.839 backs take two years to return to form, so that 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:58.480 would be that would be this year. And he also 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:01.000 did get injured last year, but it's not like it 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:02.720 wasn't his knee and it's not like he's injury prone. 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:05.800 It was a fluke stepped on his own teammates ankle 0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:09.360 on a run and so high sprain Dingdom and le. 0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:11.199 Let's not forget the team he played for. The Giants 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:14.080 were a disaster with Dave Gettleman in charge and Sean 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:18.480 Payton is the offensive coordinator. Just just a nightmare Payton, 0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:21.839 But that's okay. He was on the o C. Sean Payton, 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:24.320 the old head coach for the Saints. No, well, my 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:28.840 Jason Garrett, they're both very dislikable in my mind. I'm sorry, 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:31.880 Jason Garrett, that brain fart there. But the old line 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:34.880 was brutal for the Giants. But they did address that 0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:37.000 in the draft. They took tackle Evan Neal with the 0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:40.720 seventh overall pick. Like that guard Joshua Easy, you do 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.760 think I got that right with the sixty seven overall 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:46.520 pick in the third round, and uh, like you said, 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:50.280 new head coach Brian Dable very offensive minded and uh, 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:52.640 Barkley says he feels good. I believe him. I think 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:56.400 he's gonna go into this season at and uh, they 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.720 need to showcase him because they again they pretty much 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.400 put all the all the chips in the middle of 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.559 the table when they drafted him sech second overall four 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:06.920 years and no real competition for carries there in New York, 0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:11.400 the only guy, so they didn't draft any notable rookies. Uh, 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.160 it came on. I think he catches a lot of 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:16.280 passes this year, and that's where I think he's going 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.040 to be a very safe PPR player, Say Kwon Barkley. 0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:21.680 This year, he was with you, you know, early best 0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:24.880 Ball drafts going mid late third. Now he's creeping up 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:27.920 mid early second. And I think we might see him 0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:30.920 one spectacular to run in a preseason game. And he's 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:33.840 like right back in that spectacular runs. Let's be clear 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:36.760 about this, sa Kwon Barkley, who we haven't seen a 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:39.959 spectacular run in two years. You gotta go back three seasons. 0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:43.240 But his first year year and a half in the league, 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:45.880 he was the closest thing to Barry Sanders I've seen 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:48.960 since Barry Sanders and They'll never be another Barry Sanders, 0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:54.520 but he was as elusive and dynamic as any running 0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:57.360 back we've seen. He ran away with Rookie of the 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:01.960 Year his rookie season. He was awesome. And while I 0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:05.079 don't know that will ever be that again after all 0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:08.920 of these injuries, but even if he's like of that, 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:11.000 he'd still be a special back in this league. And 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:14.000 let's just hope healthy now Saqwan Barkley can go back 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:18.920 to being that player. He is our fourth Alivera player. 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:22.960 Let's move on to the next al Overa player, and 0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:27.080 that is Miles Sanders. Do we call this the A 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:32.160 V Club? Oh? I got you now, the A V 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:35.760 I'd like it. I like it. Miles Sanders. He burned 0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:39.360 people last year by somehow managers scores zero touchdowns on 0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:44.440 sixty touches, which is not good. H He scored six 0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:48.280 times the year before that on almost identical touches, And 0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.960 let me just explain the difference that six touchdowns make. 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.320 He had almost identical touches and yards two seasons ago 0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:57.719 to what he had last year. But because he did 0:13:57.760 --> 0:14:00.520 not score last year, he was RB forty four with 0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:03.920 just the six touchdowns, which isn't that much. He was 0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:06.920 RB twenty two the year before that, again on a 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:10.920 on almost identical touches and yards. So Sanders has it 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:15.280 in him to be a good back running back worthy 0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:19.160 of twenty two. Uh Now, last year, Jordan Howard and 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:24.000 Boston Scott combined for twenty carries inside the five. Jordan 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:27.200 Howard's not on the team, and Boston Scott is one 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:32.600 of the most unlikely goal linebacks I've ever seen. He's 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:36.000 five ft two, He's just just such a little guy. 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.520 You just it seems like that's not a role that 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:42.160 he's going to be able to be consistently good in. 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:48.120 Although I'll say he converted his twelve inside the five 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:50.760 carries into six touchdowns, which is a good conversion rate 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:54.240 you're looking for on those inside the five carries, and 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:57.840 Sanders did get six touches from inside the five and 0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:01.920 didn't score any. So part is worrying, But it doesn't 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:04.880 mean that Sanders can't score. He almost has to score 0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:06.880 more touchdowns, and touchdowns are coming. I'm not sitting he 0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:08.840 gonna sit here and say it's gonna get ten touchdowns. 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:10.920 I just wanted to get back to six touchdowns again 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:13.080 and keep doing all the other stuff that he had done. 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:15.520 Kenneth Gainwell did not look like a threat last year. 0:15:15.600 --> 0:15:18.800 Boston Scott's only gonna siphon off so much work. Still 0:15:18.840 --> 0:15:22.000 like Miles Sanders as a aloe Vera player. One other 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:24.520 thing Sanders has going for him is it is his 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:28.440 contract year and he's not a guarantee to get resigned 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.040 by Philly, and he might get that. DeMarco Murray run 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.640 him into the ground treatment, take that, get the most 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:35.320 usage he can out of him, then kick him to 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:39.280 the curb. Who is your next aloe Vera player? I'm 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:43.160 going seedee lamb Who I love this finished wide receiver 0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:46.240 twenty in PPR last year. That's not bad, but it's 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:48.920 not great and people were expecting great. But uh he 0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:52.840 was competing uh for targets with the Marii Cooper, Michael Gallup, 0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:55.400 Cedric Wilson, Dalton Schultz. Now I was of right now 0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:57.760 and likely to start the season. Schultz is the only 0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:01.240 one of those guys left to compete UH targets. UH. 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:05.240 Marii Cooper is now in Cleveland, Michael Gallup very unlikely 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:08.360 to be ready week one, Cedric Wilson in Miami. Uh 0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:11.480 so at wide receiver. We're just looking at James Washington 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:14.120 right now and rookie Jaln Tilbert, who I like. But 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:18.040 they're gonna feed Ceedee Lamb a whole lot more. And 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:19.720 one thing I would love to see them do is 0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.640 increase his usage in the slot. He only took about 0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:24.760 a third of his snaps from the slot last year, 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:29.120 but when he did, uh, I'm his biggest games came 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:31.120 when he saw at least sixteen snaps from the slot. 0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:33.400 He had two touchdowns a hundred forty nine yards against 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:37.120 the Patriots, two touchdowns ninety four yards against Atlanta, hundred 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:39.240 and four yards in a touchdown against Tampa Bay. That's 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:42.320 when he was seeing at least half of his snaps 0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:44.760 from the slot. And I think they're saying they planned 0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:46.920 to do that more, move him around more. So I 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:50.280 think Seedee Lamb's sitting on a monster year wide receiver. 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:52.360 One potential for sure, I've got him right now is 0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:55.040 my number four ranked wide receiver. I think that I 0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:58.040 think he could lead the league in targets Ceedee Lamb. 0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:01.320 Love him to bounce back into of way here in 0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:05.160 this is third season. Well, since you were talking about 0:17:05.160 --> 0:17:08.280 a Dallas wide receiver. Let me go to a former 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:12.120 Dallas wide receiver, Amari Cooper, who burned people last year 0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:15.240 by playing hurt most of last season and his numbers 0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:19.800 plunged just sixty eight receptions for eight hundred fifty yards. 0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:23.640 He did have eight touchdowns, which which salvaged his season somewhat. 0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:27.280 You know, in Dallas, Amari Cooper was always a hit 0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:30.159 and miss fantasy producer. But you know, he's always been 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:33.760 sharing a lot of targets with guys like Ceedee lamp Um. 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:37.080 He's the only game in town in Cleveland he is competing, 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.880 which if you can't hear those air quotes, assume they're there. 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:44.439 Um for targets with Donovan People's Jones, David Bell, and 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:50.120 Anthony Schwartz. That's it. There is no number one receiver 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:54.240 that has less competition across the whole league for balls 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:58.080 than Amari Cooper will have. He is so much better 0:17:58.119 --> 0:18:01.240 than every receiver on the Browns. It's, you know, unless 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:05.359 David Bell turns out to be amazing in his rookie season, um, 0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:09.679 and unless David and Joeku just like explodes, and maybe 0:18:09.680 --> 0:18:12.000 he will. They paid him like he should, but he's 0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:14.199 never done anything to suggest that he'll take a lot 0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:17.560 of balls away from Mary Cooper. So I love Cooper here, 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:20.560 I wish his quarterback was situation was a little bit 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:24.359 more settled. But let's remember Jecobie Pricette was able to 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:27.680 feed Jalen Waddle last year for a town of targets, 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:30.920 and so while they may not be the best targets 0:18:30.920 --> 0:18:33.960 in the world just by sheer quantity, I think Amari 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:35.679 Cooper sitting on a very good year and we know 0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:39.200 that he can be a very good and talented receiver. Agreed, 0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:44.719 Let's go to your final al o Vera player. All right, 0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.520 I'm going back to Uh. Well, you were talking about 0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:49.639 an Eagle before, and I've got one for you. It's 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:53.400 Dallas Goddard, who finished tight end eight last year, which 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:55.879 wasn't awful, but he was kind of just it was 0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:58.560 a big difference between the top five guys, even if 0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:01.199 you're eight, nine ten. People were expecting a little more 0:19:01.240 --> 0:19:04.760 from him. But uh again, last year, zach Ertz was 0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:07.320 an Eagle for about half the season, and after he 0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:10.200 was traded to Arizona. That should have theoretically helped god Heart, 0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:12.119 but it also threw a wrench in that offense. I 0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:13.680 think because they were kind of like a two tight 0:19:13.800 --> 0:19:17.800 end system with only one viable wide receiver who was 0:19:17.800 --> 0:19:21.240 a rookie, and that's DeVante Smith. Uh of course, and 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:24.240 Goddart never saw a heavy volume at all, just seventies 0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:27.479 six targets all year. He was also often banged up, 0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:29.639 missed two games and just looked like he was playing 0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:32.680 hurt the majority of them. But he'll be healthy again 0:19:32.720 --> 0:19:36.280 going to the season. There are definitely viable wide receivers 0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:39.280 now with A. J. Brown and Devonte Smith going to 0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:41.800 his second year. I'm in on Jalen Hurts. I think 0:19:41.880 --> 0:19:44.520 he's passing one proof and he he's bulked up big time. 0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:46.159 By the way, you just see the recent picture of 0:19:47.840 --> 0:19:49.760 I don't know if I want that in my quarterback though. 0:19:50.240 --> 0:19:55.040 Do you want he was at quarterback? I got, I got. 0:19:55.560 --> 0:19:57.680 I got big aspirations for Jalen Hurts, But anyway, I 0:19:57.760 --> 0:19:59.879 also have big aspirations for Dallas Goddard. I think he's 0:19:59.920 --> 0:20:02.720 got top five potential. All the metrics were there for 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:05.240 him last year despite the little I mean, the low volume, 0:20:05.280 --> 0:20:07.760 but all the metrics were there. He averaged two point 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:10.960 two points per target in PPR leagues. That is great. 0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:13.960 He was second in yards per reception at fourteen point 0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:16.760 nine among all tight ends. He was first in yards 0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:19.879 per route run. He led all tight ends and completed 0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:25.000 air yards per target. So Alice Goddard kind of burned 0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:30.120 you last year. It would be very soothing informer this season, 0:20:31.359 --> 0:20:36.160 our final al o Vera player Brian is Kareem Hunt. Uh, 0:20:36.200 --> 0:20:38.879 in and out of the lineup, hurt healthy, hurt healthy, 0:20:39.160 --> 0:20:43.920 hurt healthy, kind of like the same teams but probably 0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:47.840 probably um but and by the way, finishes RB forty 0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:49.680 six last year. Uh. And I think there are a 0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:51.560 lot of people that did get burned by Kareem Hunt 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:53.720 last season. It's who started, by the way first, like 0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:55.560 five games he was great. He had like five touchdowns 0:20:55.600 --> 0:20:57.680 in five games, and you know, it looked it looked 0:20:57.680 --> 0:20:59.520 like it was gonna be a really nice season for Honda. 0:20:59.560 --> 0:21:02.680 Then they'll just you know, inconsistent play. I don't think 0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:05.720 he scored again after those five games and uh, and 0:21:05.720 --> 0:21:09.919 then the injuries mounted. But he averaged a very solid 0:21:10.200 --> 0:21:14.760 thirteen PPR points per game last year. The receiving always 0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:17.359 helps him, and he ran for just under five yards 0:21:17.359 --> 0:21:19.440 per carry four point nine yards per carry and a 0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:23.639 whopping three and a half yards after contact. For Kareem Hunt, 0:21:24.240 --> 0:21:26.639 he runs behind one of the league's best offensive lines. 0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:30.520 Is PFF grade puts him at a tie at seventeen 0:21:30.720 --> 0:21:34.360 among qualified runners, which is pretty good. It's a contract 0:21:34.400 --> 0:21:37.080 here for Kareem Hunt, so he'll be playing with a 0:21:37.080 --> 0:21:39.119
