I Scott, my my 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:53.600 team in your league just got blown up by Damian Williams. 0:00:53.800 --> 0:00:56.520 Yeah as well, but it was like an eleventh th rounder, 0:00:56.560 --> 0:00:58.800 so I didn't feel so bad. But I wasn't online 0:00:58.880 --> 0:01:01.840 yesterday what happened. Uh, yeah, that's gonna be a problem. 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:05.520 We will get right into the significance of Damian Williams 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:07.800 in just a minute, but lots of other stuff to 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:10.319 go through over the course of the show, including all 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:14.800 the off season moves that the notable, meaningful, fantasy relevant 0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:18.120 offseason moves for In case you know you're reasonably were 0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.840 sleeping for the last seven months, and I wouldn't blame you. 0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:24.560 You've plenty of time to block block out everything that's 0:01:24.560 --> 0:01:27.800 happened lately. We'll go through the training camp battles that 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:32.000 we will be watching this spring. We will hit you 0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:35.800 up with a Dynasty Empire Rookie draft. A DP will 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.080 look at all the rookies where they're going in Dynasty 0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:41.200 and Empire drafts, talk about the rookies individually, and also 0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:45.800 figure out whether or not America's got it right. Is 0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:47.720 this the right guys in the right place. Guys are 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:49.720 going too high? Too low? We'll tell you that as well. 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:55.160 Not America, the world, the world it has intergalactic even 0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:59.880 probably three tough questions as always, and the COVID plans 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:04.559 that you need to get in place pronto before friendships 0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:09.120 are ended and it will happen. YEA. All right, guys, 0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.760 let's jump right in. Let's begin here with the news 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:16.280 that Damian Williams has opted out. This means that Clyde 0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:19.240 Edwards Hilaire, who I think we were all intrigued by 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:23.400 before becomes absolutely fascinating with the upside that he can 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.880 bring to a fantasy team. The way I've asked you 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:30.560 guys to work on this is this way, Scott, give 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:35.240 me the best case scenario for Clyde Edwards Laire in 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:38.440 Kansas City, and then Brian after he's done, I want 0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:41.480 you to give me the worst case scenario. Reasonable ones. 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.320 I don't want to hear about a shattered femur or 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:47.000 anything like that. You don't want here are one for me. 0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:52.760 Doesn't play right exactly with the time of research of 0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:58.919 cly I've gone back to multiple doctors, school, nurse, everything. 0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:00.320 But all right, fine, I won't do that. All right, 0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:02.840 thank you, Scott. We begin with you, Clyde Edwards Hilaire. 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:05.639 What's the reasonable upside that he could bring a things 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:07.839 break right for him in Kansas City. It's really we've 0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:10.600 seen it right like we saw we saw Spencer where 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.360 uh Ters a c l and Kareem Hunt came in 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:16.760 and he was a top you know, five six running 0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:19.560 back with Andy Reid and and Alex Smith, had a 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:22.919 pro bowld base. He was an m v P quarterback 0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:25.240 for a while that year. It's not like uh it's 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:27.560 not like he was terrible that year. We we've seen that. 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.120 We've seen Damian Williams with a five game stretch of 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.280 ninety plus yards in almost all of them and five 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:35.400 touchdowns at the end of a couple of years ago 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:38.960 there in. That's his upside. His upside is that twelve 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:43.800 to total yard back with double digit touchdowns. That's he's 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:47.920 now basically a first round running back. He's I I 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:50.400 can't see any argument putting him outside the top ten. 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:53.360 Let's get more granular than just first round, because I 0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:55.120 think he's going to go in the first round. I 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.360 have missed my rby six right now, rby six should 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:04.040 that would put him roughly pay you know eight, maybe 0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:06.840 even six if you're that's your strategy this year. You know, 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:09.760 auction value, where would you peg him a Clyde Edwards 0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:14.360 a layer for for uh? For the maximum auction value 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:16.359 that you I'm a tough guy to ask on this 0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:19.400 because I am such a thrifty auction right, I like 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:22.640 just hammering the middle of the road, guys. So uh, 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:25.800 probably in that you know, high twenties range. That's probably 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.000 about right if you want for a typical player that's 0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:30.960 going in the middle end of the first round, Bryan, 0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:34.839 give me the worst case, reasonable, worst case scenario, non 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.800 injury related for Clyde Edwards a layer. Okay, well, I 0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:40.240 think it would be safe to say before Williams opted out, 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:42.880 we were looking at a fifty fifty time share between 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.640 c H and Williams whoever, whoever. The starter doesn't matter. 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.440 Now we're probably looking so DeAndre Washington and now the backup, 0:04:50.480 --> 0:04:53.080 of course, we're looking I think still at a sixty 0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:56.520 forty time share where c H is the lead runner, 0:04:56.720 --> 0:04:59.000 but it's not gonna be He's not getting all the 0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:01.600 work now that Williams is it out. DeAndre Washington is 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:04.440 a very capable runner in the worst case scenario is 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:07.520 it becomes a fifty fifty platoon. I didn't realize this, 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.920 but DeAndre Washington was a college teammate of Patrick two 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:15.800 two years of Texas Tech and then yeah, he wanted 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:19.680 to Signington caught forty one passes from the homes at 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.320 Texas Tech. DeAndre Washington picked up a lot of blitzes. 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:24.719 They probably took a lot of showers together. There's a 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:27.120 lot of bonding. What are you saying that's going on there? 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.839 And Washington's no slouch when he's got a chance to play, 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:31.840 he's been good. He's been with the Raiders. For those 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:35.880 who don't know, last week last year, I'm sorry, three 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:38.800 times he saw twenty touches in weeks thirteen, fifteen, and sixteen. 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.920 He finished as RB nine, RB twelve, and RB nineteen 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:44.760 in those weeks. I mean, right now, I've got him 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.840 around running back fifty with the Naheim Hines and the 0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:51.080 Tavius Murray's of the world. And the worst case scenario 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.000 is he plays well, and I think he will, and 0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:56.839 I'm downgrading all rookies. Still see Ages the prime rookie 0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:59.520 out there now. But he's just not gonna get eighty 0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:01.920 to send. You're sent of the touches, which most most 0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:04.360 people expect. That would be the worst case. So let's 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.240 more a split. Let's play. Let's play that out. Let's 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:07.960 assume that you're right and that split's going to be 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:12.640 closer to than in your scenario. What's the right draft 0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:16.400 spot for Clyde Edwards Hilaire Almost where he was going, 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:21.080 maybe around sooner he's going around round three before Williams. Yeah, 0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:24.120 still right around there, a little sooner, say mid to 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:28.200 late second. But first seems a little first, seems like 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:29.960 a little bit of reach for me and re draft 0:06:30.120 --> 0:06:32.680 that's that's me. But I know people are doing and 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.440 I can see why. But Washington is not going to 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.560 be a non factor. All right. So we've talked on 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:41.479 this show and especially the podcast version, and welcome to 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.480 everybody who's listening to us over the air on their 0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:46.640 their favorite radio station. But we podcast all year round. 0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:49.920 This is our first show of year, number twenty six 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:54.000 over the air. On the podcast, we talked about stacking 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:58.000 the two chiefs running backs in part because Damian Williams 0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:00.120 was so cheap. You were going Clyde Edwards all are 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:01.840 at the end of the second or early third, and 0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:05.159 then you're getting Damien Williams in round eight, around nine, 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:07.720 around ten, or in the case of the Scott fish ball, 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:11.480 around eleven. So, now, what's the real viability if you 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:14.040 want and is that? Is there any viability left in 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:18.680 using as you're starting running backs Dwayne Washington, who's gonna 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:24.760 go super late? Sorry, DeAndre Washington and Clyde Edwards A layer. Sure, 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:27.000 I mean you're like I just kind of said, you 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:28.840 might be paying a little more of a pre Well, 0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:30.320 you're gonna pay more of a premium now for a 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:33.120 Layer in most cases. But that's the problem. On the 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:37.240 tail end, it becomes more of a it's almost you're 0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:40.080 going all in or almost you're almost handcuffing. And when 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:42.800 it was Williams, it wasn't really a handcuff scenario, right, 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.040 So now it's almost more of a handcuff. So, long 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:47.400 story short, I'm an advocate for it. If I do 0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:50.240 draft to Layer, I'm getting Washington though, no matter what, 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.360 I'm in this weird spot where I started out this 0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:56.600 offseason going, let's handcuffed, because if someone gets COVID or something, 0:07:57.640 --> 0:07:59.600 we want his backup. And now I'm like, they're in 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:03.280 the same room together all week, right if one of 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:05.640 those gets I don't know that. I think I want 0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:09.480 to spread out my my who I have in my 0:08:09.560 --> 0:08:13.680 running back corps. I liked the tandem of Clyde Edwards 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:16.040 Layer and Damien Williams because of the price you had 0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:18.920 to pay for them each, which was early third round 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:21.840 and say the ninth round. But now that Clyde Edwards 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:23.880 Laire is going to cost me a late first rounder 0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:26.680 in all probability to get I'm out, who do you 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:29.360 want who would you rather take more based on their ADP. 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:33.960 Of course Washington, Washington, because you know he's just you know, 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:36.319 it's because somebody is going to take Clyde Edwards a 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:38.600 layer in the first round. I can't. I don't think 0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:40.600 he's going to get out of first round. And if 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:43.080 you pay that price, you're paying it with the mindset 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:45.120 he's going to be the Bell Couse Studs. So why 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:47.719 do you even want Washington if you're paying that mindset? Well, 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.120 at that point, yeah, I think I'd rather just take 0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:53.120 Washington away from the guy who drafted Clyde Edwards, Hilaire. 0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:56.120 I think Brian's right that this might be closer to 0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:57.719 like a sixty forty split. And even though I'm on 0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:02.120 the wrong side of forty, that's pretty good when it's 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.320 the Kansas City Chiefs averaging thirty three points a game, 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:06.880 and you know, rookies hit the wall towards the end 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:09.240 of the season when you really make your Hey, it 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.640 happens a lot and I don't know what. Yeah, alright, 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.480 very briefly, before we get into some of the key 0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:20.160 off season moves, Antonio Brown is we now know the 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.719 terms of his suspension. It's it's it sounds like it's 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:26.120 going to be eight games. There could be more at 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:29.720 it on later, but it's eight games right now. Should 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.440 people that are drafting at this time of year based 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:34.560 on what we know right now? Is he draft able? 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:36.360 And if so, where would you take him? I have 0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:39.200 a slightly hot take. I thought he was a good 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:42.520 late round flyer. I think this worse thans his draft 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:45.000 value for me because I know he's out for over 0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:47.480 half the season in a season that could get shortened, 0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:50.160 like I do, we have a ten game season. This 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.199 almost puts it to the point I don't think I'm 0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:55.480 even throwing that late flyer on him anymore. All right, 0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:58.440 do you feel any differently, Brian? I think I agree 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.880 with Fish, And you know, if I'm throw a dart 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:02.600 very late, I think I'd still rather throw a dart 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.480 at Josh Gordon or maybe than Jordan Reed, the former 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:09.679 big names. But I think the standard take at this point, 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:12.320 I thought, is value worse than I hate using up 0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:14.160 a roster spot on a guy that I know is 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:15.600 not going to play for half of the year unless 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:17.680 I'm in a really really deep draft, and you know, 0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:19.720 I know you love your deep draft. Scott and in 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:23.400 that case, sure, but assuming you care anything about you 0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:25.200 know the weight of that roster spot and who else 0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:27.120 you could be putting there. I hate carrying guys for 0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.599 that long. All right, let's move on to the offseason 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:33.000 moves by position. Um, I've asked you guys to look 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:35.040 at each of the key moves in both the f 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:39.400 C and NFC. Let's begin in the NFC with the 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:41.439 Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So I have reason to believe you 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:44.280 have a new quarterback. Yeah, Tampa Bay now, right, Tom 0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:46.520 Brady as we all know, a Buccaneer now and what 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:50.000 can you say loaded in the passing game with Chris Godwin, 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.760 Mike Evans, he should thrive and not to mention Rob 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.680 Gronkowski of course. O J. Howard hopefully still coming into 0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:57.679 his own is this the best set of receivers he's 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:03.640 ever had? If go to I mean, Moss might take 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.880 him over the top. But let's speaking of great receivers. 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:09.880 Having two great receivers always works out well, even for 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:14.160 J Cutler and Josh McCown. In with Brandon Marshall and 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:17.360 Alison Jeffrey, who were very early teammates being drafted in 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:21.040 fantasy football, you combined McCown and Cutler, and they finished 0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:24.199 uh quarterback six overall basically, and that was McCown and 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:26.560 Cutler with two great receivers. Give Brady these two guys, 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:29.920 I mean, top six finish should be in the books. Um, 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:32.240 and I think he'll be close in terms of touchdowns 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:35.280 thrown top six, but other people will rush for fantasy 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:38.240 more fantasy points because of the Russia. All right, let's 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:40.200 go to the a f C. Let's go to the Colts. 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:44.040 Philip Rivers goes to the Colts behind the best offensive 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.720 line he's ever had. I don't know that the weapons 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:48.400 are the best he's ever had, but he's got his 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.280 checkdown running back like he had. He's he's got a good, 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:55.840 good young rookie running back to to take the pressure off. Um. 0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:58.439 I think it might be, you know, pretty lateral to 0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:01.360 what he was last year. But the problem is is 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:03.200 he washed. He did not look good at that in 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:05.280 the last two years, like he couldn't make it a 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:07.800 fall season before his arm died out. The upside is 0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:11.079 this offensive line that you alluded to, best offensive He's 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:13.520 a statue back there. Best offensive line he's ever had 0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:16.719 in his seventeen year career. He had eleven yard run 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:21.600 last year. Yes, and and now if you can get 0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:24.040 t Y Hilton back to what he was healthy, I 0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:27.320 think Paris Campbell's potentially sitting on on a nice rebound 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:29.040 off of injury last year. It could be the guy 0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:31.079 that we thought he was. So maybe there's I think 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:33.160 there's some sneaky upside to Philip Rivers as sort of 0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:37.199 last where he's let's go to Teddy Bridgewater in Carolina. Bran. 0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.120 That almost sounded like a place. Let's go to Teddy 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:45.959 Bridgewater in Carolina. The Teddy Bridgewater is the answer to 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.520 your question. Well, if you're a fan of the long ball, 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:53.199 the deep ball, Teddy Bridgewater in Carolina is not. Uh yeah. 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.880 So last year, among quarterbacks with at least a hundred 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:59.000 past attempts, the average depth of target was eight point 0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:03.520 seven yards. Teddy finished at six point one dead last, 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.920 more than half a yard behind the next guy. So 0:13:07.679 --> 0:13:09.040 but you know what, this is a good spot for 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:10.480 a guy with a I don't wanna call it, say 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.360 a noodle arm. He just doesn't go downfield, but he 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:14.880 dump off to Christian McCaffrey. He dump it off to 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.440 DJ More. These guys can take at the house do 0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:20.200 all the dirty work. But yet Teddy b is the 0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:22.199 guy in Caroline and they did not want Cam Newton. 0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:24.880 So there you go. All right, let's go to the Chargers. 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:29.079 Chargers get Tyrod Taylor, who might who might actually end 0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:30.920 up in a little bit of a quarterback fight. But 0:13:30.960 --> 0:13:33.600 he's he's got guys on his side, Anthony Lynn from Buffalo. 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:37.000 He's got better weapons potentially than he than he's had 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.719 in his career. He's got some rushing upside. Uh, It's 0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:42.880 it's an okay spot for him. He's fine for where 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:45.480 he goes. Is a late flyer even in super flexing leagues. 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:47.680 I don't think he's draftable in one KB leagues mostly 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:49.959 now he's not. You do get that running potential to 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:54.839 Tyrod Brings. Let's go to Chicago. Don't play it yet 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:56.920 because it's just talking about Nick Foles. We're gonna get 0:13:56.960 --> 0:14:01.600 into the heated battle between Nick Boles and and Sad 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:06.280 from Bonds. Sorry, first episode, I can't say the name right. 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:08.240 We'll talk about that a little more, but yes, Nick 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:10.920 Foles is in Chicago, all right. Then let's go to 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:16.040 the Raiders now Las Vegas. Just to backup Mariotta is 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.720 gonna backup car. They might have a have a training 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:21.560 camp battle, but that's about all there is there. We'll see, 0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:22.800 we'll see if he can do it with a new 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:25.480 team if he gets the job. Sounds good. A couple 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:27.320 of quick backups that we might want to touch on 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:29.360 that are pretty notable in the NFC. Brian, I want 0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:31.440 to just mention Jamis Winston, not because he's gonna be 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:33.880 very relevant when something happens to Breeze, but it completed 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:37.400 this perfect quarterback carousel between the Patriots, the Panthers, the 0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:40.280 Saints and the Bucks. They all interchanged quarterbacks. If you 0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:44.120 think about it, Newton to New England, New England, Brady, 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:46.040 you went to Tampa Bay. But I won't go on. 0:14:46.160 --> 0:14:49.200 But uh yet really, uh doesn't matter in a one 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:51.840 quarterback leaks a handcuff for Breeze and super Flex, but 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:55.640 that's it. Speaking of the Patriots and Newton, Yeah, could 0:14:55.680 --> 0:14:58.880 you argue these are his best wide receivers he's had, 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:02.800 I mean, Kelvin Benjamin Like it hasn't been good, Like 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:06.200 it hasn't been great. Yeah, So Cam Newton goes to 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:09.240 the Patriots. I have a feeling if if he's able 0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:12.320 to run again. If he's overall his injuries, he could 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:15.880 be a top twelve quarterback once again. But uh, we're 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:18.800 gonna have to see it first before we get to 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:21.360 the running backs, the receivers, and the tight ends and 0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:23.800 the players that have moved around.

We can't 0:15:53.200 --> 0:16:17.040 wait to watch. It's Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back and 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:22.280 Fantasy Football Weekly Scott Fish, Brian Johnson from Guillotine Leagues 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:24.640 dot com on Paul Charge and from Guillotine leagues dot com. 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:29.440 You're number twenty six, Segment number two a Fantasy Football Weekly, Guys. 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:33.360 Last segment we started breaking down the player movements from 0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:36.160 the off season, touching a little bit on the fantasy 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:39.080 relevancy of these moves. We got through the quarterbacks, Let's 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:43.120 turn our attention to the running backs, beginning with the Broncos. 0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:47.600 Broncos brought in Melvin Gordon. They signed him to a contract, 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:49.960 a little bit of a surprise move. Thought Philip Lindsay 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.120 was gonna be the guy there, but they lost a 0:16:52.160 --> 0:16:54.760 bunt of book or so. Maybe they don't know, but 0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:57.200 I think Gordon is going to be the main guy there. 0:16:57.200 --> 0:16:59.720 But they'll both get work. It's it's kind of a 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:02.440 it's kind of painful for both of them because it 0:17:02.520 --> 0:17:05.119 turned two bell cows into the half bell cous It 0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:07.600 really did. And Philip Lindsay is going very late in 0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:10.520 drafts right now, and I think being a little bit underappreciated. 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:14.280 I don't I'm not positive Melvin Gordon's that good. We'll 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:16.320 find out. We'll learn more about whether whether or not 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:20.879 even in this new environment. Let's go to Let's go 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:25.000 to Atlanta next. Bryan Todd Gurley returns home to Atlanta. Gurly, 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:28.040 by the way, ranked number fifty one in the NFL's 0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:31.600 Top one list that's the biggest PS list of all time. 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:37.080 Wow one maybe possibly Anyway, Atlanta was one of five 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:40.280 teams that ran the ball less than twenty three times 0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:43.600 per game last season, and according to Pro Football Focus, 0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:47.560 the Atlanta offensive line posted their worst run and past 0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:51.080 blocking grades of the Matt Ryan era last season. That 0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:53.240 era is now lasted forever by the way that Matt 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:56.600 Ryan era. And uh, the Falcons sunk two first round 0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:59.320 picks into their old line last year, Chris Lindstrom and 0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:02.320 Caleb mc gary. They both looked like busts last year. 0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:04.560 So they don't turn it around. It's not an ideal 0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:07.920 landing spot for girly. I'm not super excited about this. Uh, 0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:10.879 let's go to Miami where they've got two new running backs. 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:14.680 Have to remember remember all the all the disaster level 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:17.160 running backs they had last year. Yeah, apparently they didn't 0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:20.600 want Ryan Fitzpatrick to leave the team Russian again, so 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:22.720 so they brought in Jordan Howard and they trade it 0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:26.239 during the draft fifth router from Matt breidauh Uh. I 0:18:26.280 --> 0:18:29.000 don't love either of them. I just don't for fantasy, 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:31.960 but uh, I think Howard is most likely going to 0:18:32.040 --> 0:18:34.320 be the Bell Cow and uh, or the at least 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:38.000 the main runner. He'll be the sixty of the sixty split. Uh. 0:18:38.080 --> 0:18:40.320 There's a little value there, but only if you get 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:43.560 it cheap. Dolphins offensive line just dreadful, which makes it 0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:46.480 a little bit tricky to trust either of those guys. 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:48.639 Seattle gets a guy. I think it's gonna be back up. 0:18:48.640 --> 0:18:50.800 Other people think that he's getting pressed for starting time. 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:55.280 Let's talk about Carlos side. It really thumbs down the 0:18:55.359 --> 0:18:58.640 Rashad Penny backup value. It's still Chris Carson is the guy. 0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:02.200 He's healthy. There was worried, worried about the worries about 0:19:02.200 --> 0:19:03.880 his leg going into the season. But he's good to go. 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:06.240 Only if he starts foaming a lot, then Carlos I 0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:07.760 had becomes something. But we don't have to talk about 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:11.960 him anymore. Okay, let's go to the Jaguars Scott where 0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:15.560 the Jaguars make kind of a you know, a modest move. Yeah, 0:19:15.640 --> 0:19:19.200 if they picked up Chris Thompson, if he can stay healthy, 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:20.680 he might get a lot of he might get more 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:24.320 receptions than people think. I mean. Leonard four Nette was 0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:27.879 third on the team in targets and first in receptions 0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:30.160 for the Jaguars last year for a running back, which 0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:32.760 is and for Leonard Fournette, which is crazy. So I 0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:35.879 expect Chris Thompson to eat into that, you know, losing 0:19:35.960 --> 0:19:38.080 value for Nett and maybe a little you know, flex 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:40.640 value for Tomas and he's an old j Gruden guy, 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:43.240 the new O C for the Jaguars. A mytory there. 0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:46.399 Let's go to the wide receiver position and Arizona with 0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:48.800 the biggest move at that position and maybe the biggest 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:51.840 move overall this offseason. Yeah, definitely. Uh. Of course you're 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.640 talking about DeAndre Hopkins now a Cardinal, and the main 0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:56.879 concern really is will he see the you know, the 0:19:56.920 --> 0:19:59.680 massive target sherre he saw in Houston And at first 0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:02.720 you think probably not. But I was shocked at Arizona 0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:05.680 wide receivers as a whole total the most receptions last 0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:07.960 year at two d and thirty eight nearly fifteen per 0:20:08.000 --> 0:20:10.800 game for reference, the Texans finished with two hundred eight. 0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:14.040 And it's not like it was basically Larry Fitzgerald Christian 0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:17.120 Kirk in the mere Bird. Yeah, and now Hopkins takes 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:19.320 the mere Bird spot. So yeah, I'm not worried about 0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:21.560 Hopkins at all. In Arizona. I'm actually quite excited to 0:20:21.560 --> 0:20:26.840 see what happens here. Bird now just totally shot. I'm 0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:29.560 really really disappointed. Let's go to Buffalo where they gained 0:20:29.560 --> 0:20:32.800 Stefan Diggs. They did gain Stefan Diggs. He's he's probably 0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:35.920 the the de facto one now they're in Buffalo. Uh 0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:39.800 He's he's a nice target for Josh Allen. Uh I. 0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:42.240 I can see a very frustrating season for Diggs with 0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:46.479
