And then 18 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: Wednesday comes around and I wake up and I realized 19 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:18,759 Speaker 1: I didn't sense San on my list, and I got 20 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: no presidents and it's all just a big disaster. So 21 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: help me remind me you're going to appreciate this one 22 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: because as a fan of college football, right you're going 23 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: to want to talk about a guy who was a 24 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: star in college. He was a start a different position though. 25 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: Denard Robinson a college quarterback who is now a running 26 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: back in the National Football League, and the last two 27 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: weeks he has been phenomenal, rushing for o herned yards 28 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: in both games, and he did it last week against 29 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: a pretty tough Dolphins run defense. They're very good against 30 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: the run, typically on the road. Right now, Robinson is 31 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: a free agent and O of NFL dot Com League's 32 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: we have six teams on a buy coming up in 33 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: week nine, So Shoelace all of a sudden has flexed 34 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: starter value maybe even in RB two Inspire, I'm awarded 35 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: Dennard Robinson. Am I starting him against the Cincinnati Bengals 36 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati? Well that really depends on what you're running 37 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: back situation looks like. But it's not a good matchup, 38 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: but he's going to see the breaks. One for that 39 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: sixty sixty five yards gets me a few seven eight 40 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: points bar number one waiver wire target. It has to 41 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: be Brandon Lafel. I mean, you know, with the success 42 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: for Rob Gronkowski, Rob Gronkowsky has been balling, so that 43 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: means defenses really have to commit a lot of attention 44 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: to Rob Gronkowski to stop him. You're gonna get a 45 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: lot of one on one matchups. But what you noticed 46 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: here against the Chicago Bears, you had a lot of 47 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: the defense where they were playing off on Brandon Lavel. 48 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: And when you play off of Brandon Laveel, you can 49 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: imagine that Tom Brady sees a big target. I mean 50 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: he targeted him eleven times against the Bears, so that's 51 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: a lot of production there. But not only that, he's 52 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: got the physical nature to be able to get off 53 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: if they try to press him. I think Brandon Lafel 54 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: is going to continue to put up big numbers like 55 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 1: you did against Kansas City Buffalo and then again in Chicago. 56 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: Another one of those big bodies. Sec Re Sies youner, 57 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: I don't notice when I watched the Patriots take on 58 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: the Bears that the Bears defense is terrible. All right, 59 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: we'll have that any more waiver wire target later in 60 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: the show, but for now we throw it over to 61 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: Marcus Grant and Adam Rank. Thanks money. We're getting you 62 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: caught up with all the latest news and notes from 63 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: around the National Football League. We will get started in Cincinnati, 64 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: where star wide receiver A. J. Green told Stacy Dale's 65 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: on Sunday that he plans to play against Jacksonville Jaguars 66 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: in Week nine. However, on Monday, head coach Marvin Lewis 67 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: was a little bit wishy washy about it, and he says, 68 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: and I will see how things go this week. So Rank, 69 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: if Green does actually play, what do you do with 70 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 1: Mohamed sand Those coaches the Decepticons. But if I have 71 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: Mohammed Sanu, I would certainly continue to play him because 72 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: I'm not confident that Green's gonna come out and be 73 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: that stud receiver that we've expected him to be when 74 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: we drafted him very early in draft. So keeps in 75 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: it when there at least if Green is on the field, 76 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: they have to pay attention to him, which is key. Yes, 77 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: it has been fancy. It's hard to send him at 78 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: this point. Absolutely, Again, six teams on a bus, six 79 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: teams on a buy. You're gonna hear that a lot today. Monday, 80 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: Jet's head coach Rex Ryan named Michael Vick the starter 81 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: for Week nine against the Chiefs. The move since second 82 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: round picked Gino Smith to the bench. It's hard to 83 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: be a Geno Smith niokl like nowadays. Smith is throne 84 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: just seven touchdowns this season compared to ten interceptions. So 85 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: who do you think benefits the most on this Jets roster? 86 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: From this, I'm gonna say from the Jets roster, I 87 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: was gonna say Chief Defense. They're the ones looking sweet 88 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: about that. You know, It's tough because I think of 89 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: Michael Vick and he was somebody who could not thrive 90 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: in Chip Kelly's offense. And anybody, it seems, could play 91 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: quarterback for the Eagles except for him. So going forward, 92 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: I still believe that Percy Harvin is gonna be a 93 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: guy that you have to reckon with. They want to 94 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: see what they got. They gotta put the ball in 95 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: his hands at some point. And now you've got some 96 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: explosive playmakers out there. I don't know if that's the 97 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: formula for something that can be successful, but it should 98 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: be a little bit more exciting. I'm going Chris Ivey 99 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,239 Speaker 1: all the way. I just think they feed Chris Ivory 100 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: because the quarterback. They know what they have. They gotta 101 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: do something. Rix Ryan's gotta prove that he's a he's 102 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: a he's he's got a job on the line. Yeah, 103 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: we all know what they have and it's not good. 104 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: Some bad news for the St. Louis Rams. On Monday, 105 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: head coach Jeff Fisher confirmed the wide receiver Briant Quick 106 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: willness the rest of the sea. He's in due to 107 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: a torn rotator cuff and dislocated shoulder. Quick let the 108 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: team in receiving yards. So now that he's out at him, 109 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: is there a guy in St. Louis you then you 110 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: can step up in his absence. It's gonna be really 111 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: tough to trust anybody. Tavon Austin is somebody who we 112 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 1: just want to be that guy. We want him to 113 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: step up, but we just haven't seen Hi. We've seen flashes. 114 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: There's been moments where he just has looked great at 115 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: other times where he just doesn't look like he knows 116 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: what he's doing on the field. And it's troubling. And 117 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: it's also troubling to hasn't hasn't This franchise had like 118 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 1: picks over the last two years, half of them and 119 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: they can't. They can't get a receiver. They can't find one. 120 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: They got Donald their defenses all right, but they can't 121 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: find a playmaker. The receivers are a mess. The running 122 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: backs are a mess. Just just give them all to 123 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: Trey Mason like sixty times and let's call it to 124 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: let him. Some good news for the Panthers. On Monday, 125 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: Ron Rivera's told the media he expects running back to 126 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: the Angela Williams to play Thursday night against the Saints. 127 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: Williams has been sidelined since Week four because of an 128 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: ankle injury, but it's still owned in more than sixty 129 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: percent of leagues. So do you trust starting him on 130 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: Thursday night? I love D'Angelo. We hung out at WrestleMania thirty. 131 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: But you know what, he's not starting on my fantasy team, 132 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: even though he's returning to New Orleans. I can't do it. 133 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: I understand, you know, with with him and Jonathan Stewart 134 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: splitting time, It's just it's too icy on a Thursday night. 135 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, you know what, you guys have 136 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: a great game. I'm gonna have you on the bench 137 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: film because if you start him, I mean, it's cam 138 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: Newton is going to have all of the Russian times 139 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: her works out for all of them. Whatever, I guarantee you, 140 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: whoever you start, it'll be wrong. It'll be somebody else. 141 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 1: For more, I will throw it back some money and 142 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: the guys and more means and NFC showdown between the 143 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: Redskins and Cowboys on Monday Night. So to the highlights. 144 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: Colt McCoy back home, Tony Romo in the second year, 145 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: first and goal from the five as Briant fights his 146 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: way in. What a catch in the effort at Dallas 147 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: up seven three. Redskins, though, would have an answer. Let's 148 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: go first and goal in the third Alfred Morris, Alfred 149 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: Morris always scores against the Cowboys. Always. He punches it 150 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: in from five yards out and seven Now Skins on top. 151 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: Cowboy is driving third and eleven, and this is a 152 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: bad one. Romo hit by Keenan Robinson. He injures his back. 153 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: He was down for a while, taken to the locker 154 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: room for an evaluation, but he would return in his absence, though, 155 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: Brandon Wheaton takes over first and ten on the forty three, 156 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: gives it to Murray who does the rest eight fifty 157 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: one yard game. That is five point one season. There's 158 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: no stressful Brandon Wheton when you haven't running back like 159 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: Jamarco Murray just handed off to two and they kick 160 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: a field goal to tie the game. A couple of 161 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: plays later out third and goal. McCoy, McCoy col zone 162 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: number I got a coach seven yard touchdown run. His 163 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: parents are happy. All of his former teammates in the 164 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: stands are happy. Washington up seventeen to ten, Dallas, though 165 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: return serve. How about Jason Witten busted coverage this season? 166 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: He gets into the end zone. Eight fantasy points on 167 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: that particular play, thirteen on the night, and we go 168 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: to overtime, Redskins. When the toss, they get the ball 169 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: first and ten. McCoy, Jordan read, that is a beautiful dress. 170 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: Great play. Look at the way cart mccoyd directing traffic 171 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: here for Jordan Rea plays. Gonna watch the touch on 172 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: that pass leads to a field goal. Here we go, Dallas, 173 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: trying to keep you going fourth and three and nothing 174 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: doing falls incomplete. Redskins win d to seventeen. In ot 175 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: Uti quarterback, Dallas Cowboys quarterback. If you're in Texas, you're 176 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: so happy right there seventeen and a half points in 177 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 1: his first start for the Redskins. Alfred Morris got you 178 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: just about fifteen there, DeShawn Jackson with a hundred yard game, 179 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: and DeMarco Murray well, like DeMarco Murray has done all 180 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: season long with the twenty plus points. So let's get 181 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: things started with the big story of the night. Tony 182 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: Romo knocked out of the game in the third quarter 183 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: with a back contution. He did, however, return at the 184 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: end of the fourth. The Cowboys have a matchup with 185 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 1: the Cardinals next week, so the question is, looks like 186 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: we're almos gonna play worried should we be well. I 187 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: would definitely be keeping tabs on his status throughout the 188 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: week because it's a good matchup in Dallas. Arizona's defense 189 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: is all banged up right now. Patrick Peterson got a 190 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: hurt in week eight. So if Romo is going to 191 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: start with six teams on a bayat bar, I say 192 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: you play him because the matchup is good. I hate 193 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: that you and Romo on the ground as a Cowboys 194 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: we also say this about Tony Romo as well. Tony 195 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: Romo is a tough quarterback and that's a hard injury 196 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: to play with. We see that right there. That's a 197 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: hell of a contusion right there to get in your back, 198 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: and that can be difficult for him to throw. But 199 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: when you get a quarterback like that lobby and the 200 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: doctor and you win that lobby to get back on 201 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: the field, that's the commitment that you know that he's 202 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: gonna give to your fantasy team and to the stars. Now, 203 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: he played with a punctured long with two surgeries in 204 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: his back, and that Cardinals defense has not been very good. 205 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 1: That's the past season. So even when Romo went out though, 206 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray did not look like he was slowing down 207 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: at all. Even when the defense adjusted because they knew 208 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: Brandon Weeden wasn't gonna be pushing that ball down field, 209 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: didn't matter. Yeah, yeah it did. I mean, because you know, 210 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: what else do you say about Marco Murray. We've seen 211 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: it all. I mean, as far as we're concerned, every 212 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: single week looks like deja vu. Like I've seen this before. 213 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: Hundred yards, I've seen this before, touchdown, I've seen this before. 214 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: I'm good in the passing game as well. When you 215 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: give him that open space to Marco Murray is going 216 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: to continue to produce, and I think we can just 217 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: wash out the health concerns before the Marco Well, I mean, 218 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: look that the carries are adding up, that's for sure. 219 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: When you're when you're sneaking up on four hundred, you 220 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: get a little bit worried. But but let me tell 221 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: you what the run Marko Murray, he takes care of 222 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: this body. I've got buddies on this team. Barry Church 223 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: is one of my good friends on this team that 224 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: can tell you this guy puts a lot of attention 225 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: and to take care of his body. Nobody denied the 226 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: talent when he came out of Oklahoma. They were just 227 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: worried about his history of injuries. Doesn't matter. He's on 228 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: your team, starting him every week. If he gets already 229 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: gets hurt. RT. What's a r T? A r T 230 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: that's that's the that's the method that they used to 231 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 1: take care of their body, and not just on the 232 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: sage and it's just art, like a work of art. 233 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: Was on the other side of the ball, Alfred Morris 234 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: did find paid for the first time since week four. 235 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: So akbar you were excited about Alfred Morris in this 236 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: particular contest, and you're excited about aim moving forward. Yeah, 237 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: you better believe this is my running back. And I've 238 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: been faithful to Alfred Moore, playing him every single week. 239 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: I've not wavered from him, and I believe that he 240 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: was going to continue to get down the pros. Yeah, 241 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: he started off slowing. There's some up and down there 242 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: without for more. But there's a perfect game to show 243 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,719 Speaker 1: case his throwback mentality and his ability to continue to 244 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: get into the end zone. All right, let's move on 245 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: to DeShawn Jackson. He would go over the one hundred 246 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: yard mark for the third time in the last four games. 247 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: Sell high or start him every week with a new 248 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: quarterback back there? You know me money, I'm always looking 249 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: to make a trade, so I would sell high on 250 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: Deshan Jackson. But you've got to give it to him. 251 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: He has been very consistent in three of his last 252 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: four games, Like we said, over a hundred yards. Earlier 253 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: in the year, he was a little bit less consistent. 254 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: But if you could pull the trigger here on a deal, 255 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: upgraded running back, upgrade a quarterback, whatever you might need. 256 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 1: Right now, I have Deshan Jackson, Sean jacks here on there. 257 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: We can talk about it, Okay, I have de Shan Jackson. 258 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna we can talk about it. What do you need? 259 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 1: You know, I need help, I need I need another receiver. 260 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 1: I need a running back. I mean, I'm all about 261 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: receivers that can get you six or seven points in 262 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: one throw. And that is what Sean Jackson has done 263 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: his entire career. And you know what, It's impacted Pierre Garson. 264 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: We we wondered how it would have, how it would happen, 265 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 1: if it would affect Pierre who was one of the 266 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: most I think he was the most targeted wide receiver 267 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: last year, and certainly it has had a major impact. 268 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: I think we all knew that coming into the season 269 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: that Pierre Garson was not going to duplicate what he 270 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: did last year because Jackson's in the mix. Remember they 271 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: brought in Andrew Roberts, Santana Moss is still there now, 272 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: they have Jordan read back, Niles Paul. There's a lot 273 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: of mouse to feed in that passing game, and they're 274 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: going deep several times a game. But they're going to 275 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: Deshan Jackson, who could take the top off of defense. 276 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: So Garson right now, he's just a matchup based starter 277 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: and Honestly, had he not scored that late touchdown a 278 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, he'd be on a bad He 279 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: can get open to Sean Jackson can get open a 280 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 1: lot quicker than Pierre Garson. Cam. That's why when he 281 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: gets off the line there and he zooms by before 282 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: you even think to make a read towards Pierre Garzon, 283 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: you're looking at Deshan Jackson's wide open, and that's why 284 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: he's affected so much. All rant coming up, Marcus Grant 285 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: unveils his Week eight Fantasy rakedown.

He has been unreal 299 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: And when you look at what he did or didn't 300 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: do in the first four weeks of the season, to 301 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 1: see what he's done lately is unreal. Fourteen touchdown passes, 302 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 1: no turnovers in his last three games. Last week five 303 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: touchdowns against the Chicago Bears. Matt Money Smith, I know 304 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: you have him NFL Fantasy lively trying to trade him 305 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: because you have Drew Brees. Brady has been a god 306 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: sending for people who needed a quarterback, especially for those 307 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: who picked him up off the waiver wire when people 308 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: draft him after four weeks. Let's move to another member 309 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: of Mike Smith's Teva's my fantasy team mark ingram that 310 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: had himself a week. Yeah, he's a big time running 311 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: back now all of a sudden, But you remember backing 312 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: during the preseason, in the beginning part of the year, 313 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: we were also high on marking him like this is 314 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: a different mark ingram than he went through his little 315 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: injury bount And it's weird how injuries make you forget. 316 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: But what he did against the Green Bay Packers was huge. 317 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: When you give a running back the ball twenty four 318 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: times and he produces seven point two yard for carry, 319 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: that's changed that you can believe in. And that's why 320 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: he's a game changer. And I think you can continue 321 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: to depend on him because he was the best of 322 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: Saints have looked all offense. Was the best they have 323 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: looked all season. It's rocked the formula to continue. Yeah, 324 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: Foster arguab one of the sketchiest first run draft picks 325 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: this year, but man is at pan dividends for those 326 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: who took it has He was a risk or award 327 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: proposition and the reward has been great right now money, 328 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: especially over the last few weeks. Eight touchdowns in his 329 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: last four games, that's most in the National Football League. 330 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: Last week a hundred seventy three scrimma yards, three touchdowns 331 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: over thirty five fantasy points. I was lucky enough to 332 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: trade Arian to get Arian Foster in the trade for 333 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham a couple of weeks ago. And I'll tell 334 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: you something right now, I'm loving my backfield right former 335 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: number one overall pick in fantasy drafts, and he has 336 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: playing that way right now. Jeremy Maclin, who literally took 337 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: a spill in this game against the Cardinals. He did. Yeah, 338 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: and Macklin. Macklin actually has been one of the more 339 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: underratted draft bargains in fantasy football this year. Wasn't drafted 340 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: as a one er or two. He was more of 341 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: a high three. But he's playing like an elite one 342 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: right now. He is staying healthy, He's in a contract year, 343 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: and DeShawn jacksons in Washington. So Maclin is now the 344 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: go to guy in that offense for Nick Foles, and 345 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: he's gonna continue to be the go to guy, especially 346 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: if they're playing awful of him like you see in 347 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: that film. And what about that we're gonna talk a 348 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: defense here. How about the Dolphins defense doing damage for 349 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: people that started him against Jacksonville and that terrible Blake Bortles. Yeah, 350 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: it was gonna You gotta give credit to the defensive coordinator, 351 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: Kevin Coyle, who just brought a lot of pressure towards 352 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: a young quarterback, confused him. But the pressure that they 353 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: were to be able to they were able to develop 354 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: up front with just a four man rush, being able 355 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: to beat the man in front of you. That's the 356 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: type of points. You're gonna be able. You're gonna be 357 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: able to continue to get double digit points when you 358 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: get guys like Camera Wake that can be able to 359 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: beat this guy one on one and then you look 360 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: at the pressure down up that pressure and then your 361 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: guys like bring Grinds being to capitalize and take it 362 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: to the house. They had two pick sixes in that game. 363 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: That's huge. Look Blake Bortles for all the excitement surrounding. 364 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: How good he looks out there man as he turned 365 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: the ball over and stopful hurt the bank of this week. 366 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: That was Game Changers, presented by bos from More. Now 367 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: we throw it over to Adam and Marcus. Thanks money. 368 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: I am here with nfl Com Fantasy editor Marcus Granted. 369 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,199 Speaker 1: Every week on nfl dot com. Marcus, you write a 370 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: column called Breakdown. Now. I checked out the Tom Petty 371 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: version of that song. Didn't care for it either. But 372 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 1: tell us a little bit about this column. Well, it's 373 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: every we're looking at the guys who got targets, who 374 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: got touches, guys who get opportunities because you can't get 375 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: fantasy points about the football. All right, Well, let's take 376 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: a look at the guys who were the most targeted 377 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: on Sunday, and we have that list for you right here. 378 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: The aforementioned Jeremy Macklin leading the way with sixteen targets. 379 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen, for as much as we talked about the Chargers, 380 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: as much as Keenan Allen has bummed us out, still 381 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: targeted in an awful lot thirteen targets, more importantly, nine receptions. 382 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: They're pretty good ratio for him. But talking about people 383 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: who have been bumming us out, we can't start that 384 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: conversation without Corderol Patters. We cannot. But Cordell Patterson. We 385 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: said during the week last week that if he couldn't 386 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: get joined against the Buccaneers and it was never going 387 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: to happen, and he finally actually did something. He had 388 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: you see the twelve targets there. He put up nine 389 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: points at Fantasy Mortem. He still can't get to double digits, 390 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: but the throwing the ball in his direction and that's 391 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: a positive sign. This week, another potentially favorable matchup coming 392 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: from Patterson. So maybe you give him another shot as 393 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: a flex guy, especially with as maybe heard six teams 394 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: on a buy. You know, but you gotta think that 395 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: this is one of those weeks where Patterson's a match 396 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: up based opic. Right now, that's really all you can 397 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: use him. Now. There was a kid on Twitter Sunday 398 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: morning he said, shall I start a Key Makes or 399 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: Dante moncree And I was like, you know what, go 400 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: with Nicks? And then I changed my mind as a dope, 401 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 1: go at moncreef. How did he do this week? He 402 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: did very well this week? You see that seven catches 403 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 1: and hundreds, the thirteen yards and a touchdown. Sometimes targets 404 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: and receptions say less about the player that's getting them 405 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: and more about the guys who aren't getting them. And 406 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: on a week when Reggie Wayne wasn't available for the Colts, 407 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: where was Hotkey Knicks? He was nowhere. We found he 408 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: was not a part of the game plan. Instead it 409 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: was Dante moncree. So I don't know that you run 410 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: out and you stash this guy right away because you 411 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: just don't know if this continues. But I think this 412 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: says that you can certainly say goodbye to hockey kicks. 413 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: All right, now, let's take a look here. You've got 414 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: the range, I've got the list here of the most 415 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: backfield opportunities. Explain to us a little bit. What this means, 416 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: it is just chances to get the football in your 417 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: hands as a running back, whether rushing attempts or pass targets, 418 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,959 Speaker 1: just anytime the ball comes in your atmosphere. Levian Bell 419 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: does he have the braun? He does. He has the bons, 420 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: braun and the brains. He's got all of it. And 421 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 1: I've developed a man crush, a fantasy man crush on 422 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: Levion Bell the last few weeks. The Steelers are finally 423 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: getting the ball to him as many times as I 424 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: think they should. I think he should be in the 425 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: range of thirty touches of game. It happened on Sunday 426 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: in the big win over the Colt And I've been 427 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: saying it all week. As long as the Steelers Keith 428 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 1: Thieve and Levian Bell, fantasy owners will continue to eat. 429 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 1: One of the most heated discussions here in the news 430 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: room was who was going to get them all the most? 431 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: Anthony Dixon, Bryce Brown? How did it play out on Saturday? 432 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: On Sunday, it was all about Anthony Dixon. He had 433 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: the twenty two carries, only see just forty four yards, 434 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: so didn't much happen there. Although I felt like this 435 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: was the week that Dixon was going to be the 436 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: leading rusher in turn of touches for the Buffalo Bills. 437 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: But I do think going forward that's gonna shift a 438 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: little bit. I think it's gonna be Bryce Brown. I 439 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: know he wasn't great on Sunday either, but he's the 440 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: more dynamic back. He's the shift to you're faster back 441 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: for Buffalo, and I think he's gonna start taking the 442 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 1: bulk of those carries. I am. I dropped him on Sunday, 443 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: I was watching. I should go get him back, all right, 444 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: So where can we find that column again? We can 445 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: find at NFL dot com slash targets. All right, good 446 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: stuff from you, Marcus. Now still to come? Are you 447 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: bold it up to trade away Peyton Manning? And what 448 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: can you really get for him? I'll stick around to 449 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: see what our experts say is the key to executing 450 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: a blockbuster deal. And up next, we're diving into the 451 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: waiver wire to find that missing piece for your championship run. 452 00:20:43,280 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: This is NFL Fantasy Live. It's the buck. The tracks 453 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: are on the board. Turn off the likes. This one's 454 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: OVERSI back Pilon talk about it takes up our own 455 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 1: all right, Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Line presented Bibos. Gentlemen, 456 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: there are plenty of good players, remarkably so, still available 457 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: in most leagues on the waiver wire. So let's get 458 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: to the targets we like for this week. If you 459 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 1: need a running back, Marcus, where are we going? I'm 460 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: going to Jonas Gray. And I know I am the 461 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 1: leading proponent of bellatricks around here, but say take us 462 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: with a grain of salt. One. You're not really gonna 463 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: play Jonas Grade this week because the match up against 464 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: the Broncos is not a good one. But with the 465 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: running back situation being as it is in New England, 466 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: this is a guy who's going to get touches. He's 467 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: going to get opportunities behind Shane Buren last week actually 468 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: had more carries than Shane Buren did, so this is 469 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: an opportunity to get a guy who's going to see 470 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: a lot of action here. Again, he's a match up 471 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: based play. This is not a matchup I like this 472 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: week against the Denver Broncos, but I like Jonas Gray 473 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 1: as a pick up and stash for later. Dad, you 474 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: mentioned it. They jumped on the bear so fast that 475 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: perhaps those touches were inflated a little bit because well, 476 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: Tom Brady had five tasted. I'm a gonna chase tomorrow. 477 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: We're talking about a jet fab we are, and you're 478 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: gonna hear this a lot. There are six teams on 479 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: a by this week, which means sometimes you have to 480 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: go to the bottom of the barrel to scrape up 481 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: a starter off the waiver wire. Well tomorrow. His hands 482 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: aren't the greatest in the world, but he does have 483 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: twenty two targets in his last three weeks, eight team 484 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: catches in those three games, and he's playing the Chiefs 485 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: this week. They've allowed the fifth most Fantasy points of 486 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: tight ends and the last two weeks. I think that's 487 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: part of the reason why Lance Kendricks was a sneaper 488 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: of Adam Ranks last week. So if you need a 489 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: tight end, especially in the PPR League, tomorrow is a 490 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: good play. Well, Fabs, you're threw it to rank rank, 491 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: You're going with Shoelace. I'm gonna go with the Nard Robinson, 492 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: I think because I swung in this so hard with 493 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: Toby Garhigh, which you know, this is what happens when 494 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: you trust a Norco. Hi Guys should have never done that. 495 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: I should have been looking at Robinson. Rivalries still coming. 496 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm not letting it go come. And you know what, 497 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: but Denark Robinson has played well in back to back weeks. 498 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: He does a lot of great things on the field. 499 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: He's so versatile, he can rid, he could catch, he 500 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: can also throw if he needed to as well. So 501 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: he's somebody again, six teams on a buy. It's not 502 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: a lot out there. Pick him up next year in 503 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 1: your fantasy league. Have a slot for offensive weapon. That's 504 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: what they like to call him down there, right, All right, Marcus, 505 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: let's go to that wide receiver position. And is this 506 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: guy do anything on Sunday? He did a little bit 507 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 1: of something. Yeah, Mark Thavis Bryan who entered the last 508 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: two weeks, has had some touchdowns, three touchdowns in his 509 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: last two games. And we expected Marcus Wheaton maybe to 510 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: be a sleeper a breakdown guy and hasn't really happened. 511 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 1: And now there's Bryant's coming out of nowhere and making plays. 512 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: He's a great deep thing, which is saying a lot 513 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: on a team that has Antonio Brown on him. But 514 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: he's getting down the field, he's getting behind the fenders, 515 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: and Roethlisberger is finding him now. If we could just 516 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 1: give Ben Roethlisberger to throw for five twenty two every weekday, 517 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: chances aren't they went to college at Clemson. Just pick 518 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: him up, od B here for you, fabs. A lot 519 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 1: of people did not pick him up last week because 520 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: the Giants running by obviously couldn't help few. So he's 521 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: still available in over NFL dot com leagues. He has 522 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in four games. This is a guy that 523 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: you could pick up and play this week on Monday 524 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: Night football, because again, six teams on a bye. If 525 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: you're in the twelve team league, a four teen team league, 526 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Beckham has starting value as a 527 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 1: three or flex. And you mentioned jays to Morrow and 528 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: his suspect hands o dB some of these strongest hands 529 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: in all of college football last year, which always comes 530 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: in handy in the red zone for Eli Manning. Another jag, Yeah, 531 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 1: another jag. I'm gonna double down to my voice from 532 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: of course, you know. And here's the thing, A lot 533 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: of jag talk there. And we're also talking a lot 534 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: of rookies here. I think we can throw out the 535 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: notion that rookie receivers cannot come in and contributely been 536 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: doing very well, and one who is kind of flown 537 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: under at the radar is Robinson because the Jags have 538 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: not been playing up to my lofty expectations for them 539 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 1: this season. But you know, as you see right there 540 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 1: receiving touchdowns and back to back games, he's become the 541 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: top go to guy and the Jags are gonna be 542 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: in a lot of games where they're gonna have to 543 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: throw the ball a ton to stay competitive. And although, 544 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: like totals, is going through some growing pains right now, 545 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of opportunity after he got 546 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: those two pick sixes out of his system. Adam Science, 547 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 1: you're getting sneaky here on us. Well, I got sneaky 548 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: about nine weeks ago and pick this guy up in 549 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: every league it was available. But right now is it 550 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: time to get Gordon if he's still a free agent. 551 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: Right now, he's available in over NFL dot com leagues. 552 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: It's the number one wide receiver in Fantasy football last 553 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: year money, and in the NFL Fantasy Live League, we're 554 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: gonna be talking about trades coming up in the next segment. 555 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: I have Josh Gordon in that league. On my bench, 556 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 1: which means that I have really good depth at wide receiver, 557 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: so I can make a trade. You could pick up 558 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 1: Josh Gordon right now and trade in someone who needs 559 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: a week back.

Let's just 595 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: limited to that. At NFL Fantasy Guys, we're gonna do 596 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 1: some trade talk. It is the trading season in the NFL. 597 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: VISA are trades that are actually being proposed right now 598 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: in our Fantasy Live League FABS. You are trying to 599 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: swing a deal with America's team, and America's team is 600 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: run by you, the viewers, the fans. So let's break 601 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: it down. What are you offering? What do you want back? Well, 602 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: I am offering Russell Wilson, who right now is fifth 603 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: and Fantasy points him on quarterbacks and Marius Thomas, who 604 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 1: is one of the best wide receivers in fantasy football 605 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: for Peyton Manning. Okay, so you need a number one quarterbacks, 606 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: will stop. I want an upgraded quarterback, and Russell's been great. 607 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: I have really good depth at wide receiver. I've also 608 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: got alshon Jeffrey t Y Hilton, I've got Josh Gordon 609 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: winning in the wings. I've got Mike Wallace on my 610 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: bench as well. So this is how I roll. This 611 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: is how I win LEAGUS money is by adding better 612 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: pieces through depths, and I've got depth at wide receiver 613 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: and it's you know, Russell Wilson is one of the 614 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: five best quarterbacks in fantasy. So I think this is 615 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: a great deal. You know, I would say this is 616 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: a fair trade. And the reason why I said, and 617 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: I don't always do business with you, but if I 618 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: were in America's team, I'd say I'd take this. Now. 619 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: I would say, you're giving up a little bit too 620 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: much to get Peyton man And because like you just mentioned, 621 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's a top tier quarterback. Now again you're gonna 622 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: have to make that trade. Because he's such a name 623 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 1: brand and he's a top tier quarterback, You're gonna have 624 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: to give that up. And so there's gonna be that 625 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: small hole. But I think this is a fair trade, 626 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: boat party win. I guess if I were America's team, 627 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: the one thing I would be wary of is they 628 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: need running back help. When you look at the run 629 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: back and the roster Chris Ivory, Brandon Oliver at their start, 630 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: I would almost be more up to maybe go with 631 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch. But right well, I have also offered that 632 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: trade as well. So if America doesn't want to Marius Thomas, 633 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: I've said you can have Marshawn Lynch, So Russell Wilson, 634 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch for Peyton Manning. But if you go to 635 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: Fantasy genius right now and vote. It looks like you 636 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: guys want to Marius Thomas and not Marshawn Lynch. So 637 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: both of those offers are out there. Take which one 638 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: you like and hopefully we can spring it. Let me 639 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 1: just add this to it. The reason why I like 640 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: the Marrius Thoma is better than I do like the 641 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch. Like you look at that Dallas game that 642 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: they had and what was the other game was against 643 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: Carolina where both guys didn't have good production. So now 644 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: you lose, you play both of those guys in your lineup, 645 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,479 Speaker 1: and so it's just kind of you. You gotta give 646 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: a better chance. I get a better chance with Marius. 647 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: About the Marius is if you don't want to trade 648 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning because you think he's gonna put up huge points, 649 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,479 Speaker 1: well you get to Marius Thomas, So you get all 650 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: of Peyton's big points through the Marius Thomas. Number one 651 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: quarterback in Russell Wilson was top five. Right now, I 652 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: think those both make sense, all right. Remember, fans, you 653 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: can always vote for who America's team starts and sits, 654 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: and more importantly, you can vote on whether or not 655 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: to accept trades proposed by I don't know a little 656 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: squirrely this time dot com slash America's team. See if 657 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: you have what it takes to beat the experts. Did 658 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 1: they give you a countertrait at all? Did they offer? 659 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: And if they have not, they have not right now 660 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: again they liked Marius Thomas and Russell Wilson. I'm trying 661 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: to swing a deal. I've been trying to swing steal 662 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: not for three weeks with our man, James Co. How 663 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: about Tom Brady? I have Tom Brady and Drew Brees, 664 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: so I need to get rid of one of them. 665 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: I have a plethora of How did you acquire Tom Brady? 666 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: Picked him up off the waiver? One drop? James Co? Yeah, 667 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: so I am offering him Tom Brady and mark Ing Room, 668 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: who is back healthy, just put up a monster week 669 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: for the New Orleans Saints against the Packers. I need 670 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: a tight end desperately, so I'm asking for Julius Thomas 671 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: and Ahmad Bradshaw. I give up a back, I give 672 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: up the most productive quarterback of the lets four weeks 673 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: in football, and I get back my starting tight end 674 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: Us Thomas, and I get back a mod brand. I 675 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: think this is a fair deal. I think this is brilliant, 676 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: not brilliant by Matt money Smith because he's trading away 677 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: a guy he picked up off the wider wire for 678 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: two stunts to help him at other positions. This is 679 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: why Matt money Smith wins Fantasy League. Well. First off, look, 680 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: mark Ingram has not been a consistent running back. So 681 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: now all of a sudden you've got mark Ingram. You know, 682 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: if you look, if you look at the way a 683 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: Mod Brashaw has been playing, Mod Brashaw has been playing 684 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: lights out. He has been consistent every single week Church 685 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: at richardson step Foot and then for the Indianapolis Colts. 686 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: And when you're giving that up, if you were to 687 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: do a redraft right now, you look at Julius Thomas 688 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: and Mod Brashall those guys are going above and before. 689 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: What if I were to tell you the bar, What 690 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: if I were to tell you that James co is 691 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: currently starting Carson Palmer as his quarterback and his starting 692 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: running backs are Andre Ellington and Jeo Bernard, so he 693 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: has no issues at the running back position. He desperately 694 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: needs a QB one. If I take Julius Thomas, Augustine 695 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: He's got Dwayne Allen to slide in right there, so 696 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: he's covered, but he needs a quarterback if he has 697 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: going going to get into the playoffs and make a 698 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: run in the Postseus, we've seen good Tom Brady and 699 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: we've seen bad Tom Brady. I'm not convinced that that's 700 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: the right pick thing. I'm gonna let's say, James James 701 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: CO takes your terrible advice. My second one is going 702 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: to my man, e H. Elliot Harrison. If Co won't 703 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: do this deal, he needs a quarterback as well, So 704 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: I'm offering him Tom Brady and Eddie Lacy for Arian Foster. 705 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: Another great move. This is what I like to do. 706 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: You've got depth their quarterback, you can throw him another 707 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: running back who's pretty good, and then you get an 708 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: elite player in exchange. That's great. That's the old truth. 709 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: For one, I'm with you on this trailer for once 710 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: you got it right. The other one was snaky. You know, 711 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: I'm real skeptical. Sounds a skeptical person when it comes 712 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: to trading. But I think you're giving, I mean, two 713 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: decent players to be able to get Arian Foster. That's 714 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: what he demands. If you're gonna get his production. I 715 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: know to Marco Murray has been getting a lot of 716 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: the limelight here in Fantasy. But Arian Foster strong, Yeah, 717 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: he's strong right now? All right for more on some 718 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: possible Week nine. First time to throw it over to 719 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: Adam Rank. Thanks guys. Wow, that seems like an awful 720 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: lot of work to try to take down the Chant. 721 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: But whatever. Every week though, let's move on to the sleepers. 722 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: I give you about eleven who can help you win 723 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: your matchup that comes out on Wednesday. Right now, I'm 724 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: gonna give you a special preview with three guys because well, 725 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: I'm awesome. We started the quarterback position with Alex Smith, 726 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: and I'm not even gonna look at what Alex Smith 727 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: did last week. I'm just gonna assume he did very 728 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: well against St. Louis and Waite. Our researcher Korean has 729 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: just handed me the stats, and wow, they weren't good. 730 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: It's cool though, the Chiefs were in control early and 731 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: didn't need Smith to do a whole lot. But I 732 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: do like the matchup this week against the Jets. I'm 733 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: not sure Smith's gonna be four touchdowns good against New 734 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: York like Kyle Orton, but we have like one eight 735 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: four quarterbacks on a bye this week, so you could 736 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: do much worse, although you might want to check that 737 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: last number. All right, let's move on to the wide 738 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: receiver position. At Brown's pass catcher Andrew Hawkins. Do you 739 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be tough for quarterbacks this week? Just 740 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: think of all the big name receivers on your bench 741 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: with the Packers and Bears and Hibernation and all right, 742 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: sorry I said that, but anyways, that's why I'm gonna 743 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: look at Hawkins, who has been pretty good over the 744 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. People want to knock him because 745 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: of his size, but all he does is put up 746 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,760 Speaker 1: points week after week like he has done the last 747 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: two weeks. That should continue against the Bucks, who have 748 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: allowed the second most points the receivers this year ended 749 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: playing at Cleveland. Browns receiver isn't your particular brand of vodka. 750 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: How about Doug Baldwin. He didn't have a great game 751 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 1: against the Panthers, but thankfully the news gets worse because 752 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: even though the team is going up against the Raiders, 753 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: this isn't the best matchup for me either, So why 754 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: would I be advocating him? Well, again, you don't have 755 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 1: a lot of options, but Baldwin has been the most 756 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: targeted receiver of the Seahawks this season, which is really 757 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: all you can ask for when again, you have six 758 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: teams on a buy. So those are some of my 759 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: sleepers right now.

So let's get started with 778 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 1: little waiver Wire pick Up of the Year nominees. Please. 779 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 1: Justin for Set looks as though he may have settled 780 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: in as the number one back in Baltimore mod Bradshaw. 781 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: He'd been hot so far this season. And of course 782 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 1: Steve Smith Sr. Do in big work in Baltimore. If 783 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 1: you're in Charlotte, just ask him. He'll let you know. 784 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: I think he wants you to MOA's lawn at his 785 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: Charlotte home. I believe that's what he said. All right, 786 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: fabs Getta started with our first nominee, Justin four sets 787 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: and Justin for Sett wasn't even on the radar and 788 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: fantasy draft. I mean, we're talking about a guy who 789 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: was so far off the radar that people did not 790 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 1: even have them on their cheat sheet. But right now 791 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 1: he's been one of the ten best running backs in 792 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: fantasy football, averaging over five yards and carry. That's a 793 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: very impressive number. Seven and six scrimage yards this season, 794 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: sixth most among running backs so far this year. And 795 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 1: to be quite honest with you, I don't know if 796 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: four sets doing well in fantasy says more about him 797 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: or more about the state of the running back position 798 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,800 Speaker 1: this season, But for Set has become an every week starter. 799 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: Well to Indianapolis saying, a mod Bradshaw sunk costs a 800 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 1: first round pick in Trent Richardson and he cannot get 801 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: on the field. And you served the number one back 802 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: spot from a mod Bradshaw Marcus right, and it looked 803 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 1: like Richardson was going to get an opportunity to really 804 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: perform this year. Bradshaw was sort of a stopgap measure 805 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: for Indianapolis and a lot of fantasy we're worried about 806 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 1: how he would rebound after the neck injury last year, 807 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: but he's been fantastic. It helps him he's a red 808 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: zone target for Andrew Luck. It certainly helps that he's 809 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: playing in one of the league's most dynamic offenses with 810 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: a young quarterback who's among the best in the league. 811 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,240 Speaker 1: But Odd Bratchhaw has been an absolute fine and gold 812 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,280 Speaker 1: off the waiver wire. This all right to the receiver 813 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: position and Steve Smith Senior back to the Ravens. You 814 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 1: know what, Marcus, I'm gonna one up you. You said gold, 815 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 1: What about platinum? That's I think that's more expensive than gold. Maybe, 816 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: okay maybe, But here's what I'm saying. When you look 817 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: at Steve Smith, he has been a diamond that he's 818 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: been all the other stuff for for Joe Flacco, his production. 819 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: You talked about the Hunter Yard games. He's had touchdown, 820 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: He's already has four touchdown. Last couple of seasons he 821 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: had four four touchdowns. He's been impressive. He's the new Smith. 822 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: He's the real Smith that they wanted in Baltimore. He 823 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: should be the waiver wire pickup of the year, no 824 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,400 Speaker 1: doubt about it.

Here we go your mid season fantasy waiver 831 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: wire pickup of the ear And as we talked in 832 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: earlier segment, why I'm trying to pluck him off with 833 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: James Cove roster. Come on, go do the deal. Already 834 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: were ready for our next to war, gentlemen, let's let's 835 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: let's do it. Next midseason award is four as we well, 836 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: you know what we should celebrate a mudbreadh a little 837 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 1: bit more. But Rookie of the Year. Here are your nominees. 838 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 1: Calvin Benjamin, the rookie wine receiver, first round pick out 839 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,279 Speaker 1: of Florida State, Sammy Watkins, the rookie first round pick 840 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: receiver out of Cleansing the Buffalo Bills, and well plucked 841 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: off the Indianapolis Colts after they've cut him, undrafted free 842 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:54,360 Speaker 1: agent Buffalo Bowl Brandon Oliver. Calvin Benjamin will get us started, 843 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,879 Speaker 1: and that means you Marcus touting how good he is. 844 00:38:58,000 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: Ready the start of the year and we all said 845 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: the line of Panthers didn't have any receivers and let 846 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: everybody goes. Steve Smith was gone and Cam Newton throw 847 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 1: to look at that, I guess we discounted Kelvin Benjamin. 848 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: He's a big body receiver, really knows how to get 849 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: between the ball and the defender. And Cam Newton has 850 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: built a rapport with him. He's low in the direction 851 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: of big, strong dude with big hands, and he's basically 852 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: doing with the Panthers what he did during this time 853 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: at Florida State and making big catches and taking that 854 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: big hit right there bout sound effects provided, Like I'm 855 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: watching the movie up and you're like that weird the 856 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: way he does? What good week to talk about? He 857 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: has been as good as advertised now. He has had 858 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: sort of a roller coaster season up and down. And 859 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,760 Speaker 1: I would give him a little bit of advice, Sammy, 860 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: when you get to the end zone, then celebrate, not 861 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 1: before if he had scored that touchdown, that's even more 862 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,919 Speaker 1: fantasy points for Watkins. And I would say that he'd 863 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 1: have to be the favorite over at Kelvin Benjamin and 864 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: Brandon Oliver. But he has and the playmaker the Bills 865 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: hoped he was going to be at the NFL. I 866 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 1: don't know. He only average fifty two and a half 867 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,919 Speaker 1: yards per reception last week. Brandon Oliver? Is this your guy? 868 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: This is your guy? I love Brandon. We're looking at 869 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 1: a little lightning bolt. Look at him, just runs in 870 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: exactly just like the logo on his head. But he 871 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 1: came up, took over for Ryan Matthews and I don't 872 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: think anyone hesitated and realizing his talent right away, the 873 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 1: way he hides behind his offens alignment and then boom, 874 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 1: just exploding. You Randon Oliver if he's not the rookie 875 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 1: of the year, and what I am going to I 876 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,359 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not gonna I don't know. I don't 877 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,799 Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna drink he's gotta be. I mean, 878 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: we loved him. It's like, well, I love the baby Blues, 879 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: I love the number forty three, I lovely he came 880 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: in against the Jets and put up thirty points in 881 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: that first game. But anyway, objectory is going. But you 882 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: also love that he's he's the top rookie running back 883 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: in the year. You're trying to call out our fans. 884 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 1: We asked them to vote. They do and they me 885 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: and the fans were cool. They know me. Ran is 886 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: a meritocracy. If he deserves it, then he'll get here. 887 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 1: All right, another drum roll, I'm gonna get it right 888 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: this kind of right up? Yeah, there we go. All right. 889 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,959 Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin, how do you feel about that? I'm happy 890 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: for Calvin. Were the same height, really well, Kelvin Benjamin 891 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: and I are not the same height. He's probably about 892 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 1: his twice as big as I am. But if he 893 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 1: does deserve it, I think if Sammy Watkins scores that 894 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: touchdown against the Jets, then maybe I'm going with Watkins. 895 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 1: But Benjamin has been more consistently. He's putting up points 896 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: every single week for your fantasy team. And do you 897 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,359 Speaker 1: remember when they drafted him and everyone was like, hell 898 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: really he was just he remember this play right here, 899 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: staying at all for mere time. Just those guys, all right, 900 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: We've got plenty more mid season fantasy awards that we 901 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 1: are given out this week.

Can we just 905 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: get Flacco's first quarter against the Bucks and maybe then 906 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 1: Larry Denell of course famously not starting himself when you 907 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: put up twenty three points, and then we're gonna do 908 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 1: the bus.

The targets for Week nine, Marcus get us started. 923 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 1: I'm going with Lorenzo Taliferro because Bernard Pierce was a 924 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 1: healthy scratch last week. Taliferro comes in off the bench. 925 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 1: Bolt was a couple of touchdowns away from Justin for setting. 926 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: As long as the Ravens are going away from Bernard Pierce, 927 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: Taliferro is gonna be that backup guy. And on a 928 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 1: week where there aren't a lot of guys available because 929 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: of byes, it's not a bad option. All right, Lee Haney, 930 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 1: deep waiver, what do you got that's you off? Bar? Oh? Well, oh, 931 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:31,839 Speaker 1: you let me tell you something. I like him after 932 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,399 Speaker 1: Percy Harvard left. I mean he's been number two guy. Now, 933 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: we saw the production that he gave against the Broncos 934 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys. Boy, what was hey? Flex Wheeler, I'm 935 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,359 Speaker 1: talking everybody, go Jake Cutler, you're going Wheeler gonna. I'm 936 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 1: gonna go with Tim right here. The Patriots have wanted 937 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: to run that too. Tight end said again, and you 938 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: know we saw a little bit about it against the Bears. 939 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,359 Speaker 1: But he's somebody again. If you need a wider wide receive, 940 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 1: if you need a tight end, go pick him up. Yeah, 941 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 1: sadly I dropped him a couple of never fills with two, right, 942 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: that's what he got Charles Simms. Now, if you need 943 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 1: a running back this week and Doug Martin isn't inactive, 944 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna pick up Bobby Brainy. But Charles Simms is 945 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: the guy for the long term play. Right now. He 946 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: is a guy who is on the injured reserve list, 947 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 1: but he can come back very soon. I like this 948 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: guy long term. You guys talk about Preacher curls. I'll 949 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 1: mention I like that big body at Dante Moncrief, a 950 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 1: lot of people's favorite receiver coming into the draft last season, 951 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 1: what he can do with Andrew lock. So he's available, 952 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: go ahead, pick up that Colts receiver and that is 953 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 1: going to do it for us today. Make sure you 954 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: tune in tomorrow for all of Michael Fabiano starts and 955 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 1: sits for Week nine. We'll see you then,
