7
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: last couple of days. This is like the Black Friday

00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: sales starting on Thursday at six and I'm against that too.

9
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,279
Speaker 1: A little bit of drizzling here. If I were, if

10
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: I actually were running for president, part of my platform

11
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: would be you could not advertise for Christmas until actually

12
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 1: after Thanksgiving. That's not bad. That's why I would vote

13
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,919
Speaker 1: for you on that. I mean, I'm not gonna lie.

14
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: I've seen Christmas stuff in a target in September. It's

15
00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: like they bypassed Halloween hand the Thanksgiving. I'm all about

16
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,279

17
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 1: good holidays. They should all be agree with that. I

18
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: agree with that, except Valentine's Day, which was a It's

19
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: a scam. It's a scam. Okay, we got the what

20
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: skin from Wisconsin, All scale are what's up? Well? I

21
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: was thinking that your interest sounds so smooth that it

22
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: would be great to transition into some type of sponsorship

23
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: like you're listening in the NFL Fantasy Live Podcast presented

24
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: by presented by No One. But instead we're here to

25
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: serve up some hot holiday takes on the order in

26
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: which they should be promoted at stores and which ones

27
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: are scams and not to see Maverick on half of

28
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 1: the danger Zone tag team. We got Adam Rank, what's

29
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 1: going on? What's happening? So? Am I not allowed to

30
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: be excited for a movie because like, well, Wonder Woman's

31
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: coming out before so I can't. I can't start thinking

32
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: about episode eight? Or can you like both things? And

33
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: you know what, if I want you know what, I

34
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: don't know. This might be a little bit of a spoiler. Alerk.

35
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 1: First of all, you're you are a job is busy

36
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: around the holidays, so sometimes it's nice to pick off

37
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: some some Christmas gifts a little bit early. I'm sorry,

38
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not cutting out, you know what? The

39
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: things because say you're saying your Christmas gifts for people

40
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: are like Christmas wreaths and decoration. They might be like

41
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: kind of a suboptimal judge me. I want to tell

42
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: me when I can celebrate holidays. Your houses look a

43
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: little sparse. Here's a wreath for somebody. I get upset.

44
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: I get upset because our neighbors sometimes don't have enough

45
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: holiday You also don't strike me as the guy that

46
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: decorates your house. Have you not seen our rank? No?

47
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: Have not? Godd Like dude, you go crazy on our

48
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 1: Instagram will show you like there's lights from our house

49
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: to the neighbor's house and back and forth. We actually

50
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: give lights for our neighbors because they're not They're right,

51
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: you're ruining it. Stop stop having like these these like

52
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,839
Speaker 1: these empty spots in our neighborhood really hit we really

53
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: hit the soft spot here. I want Nasad to know

54
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: the deep underbelly of Adam Raake. I did not realize

55
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: that you were such a Christmas holiday decorations junkie. Not

56
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: only that, I also do I do have Christmas gifts

57
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: for people. I will be uh, but you know, but

58
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: they're usually for the nieces and nephews, Like, why can't

59
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: they be Halloween gifts? Because we usually don't do gifts

60
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: for Halloween, but one of my nieces, he has a

61
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: birthday in April. It's passed and I saw something at Disneyland.

62
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, Tasha would like this, so I bought it

63
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: and it's uh sitting in the closet. Now she'll get

64
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: it into December. Fair enough enough Holiday chattery. Here, We've

72
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: We'll start in Washington, d C. Just a year removed

73
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: from being a hot sleeper, Matt Jones all of a

74
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: sudden finds himself on the outs in Washington. Jones is

75
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: skipping O T A S and reportedly wants to be

76
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 1: released or traded. It's rumored that Washington is shopping Matt Jones. Jones,

77
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 1: the starter to start the year in sixteen, got injured,

78
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: lost the job to Fat Rob Kelly. Then the team

79
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: drafted som J. P. Ryan to go along with Kelly

80
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: and the pass catching specialist Chris Thompson Alex skillhar I'll

81
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: start with you, is there a landing spot for Matt

82
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: Jones anywhere? What does it mean for the Washingt backfield?

83
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: I mean, he wasn't gonna factor into it anyways, So

84
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: if there is a landing spot out for they're out

85
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: there for good for him. Isn't it crazy how fast

86
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: it moves? I mean yes and no, Like Jones, Jones

87
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: kind of rise was a little bit puzzling to me.

88
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: I mean, first when he got drafted in the third

89
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: round or whatever, never thought he was going to make

90
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: it that high in the draft because what he did

91
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: at Florida, And then like even he had those couple

92
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: of good games, but I thought even the tape that

93
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 1: he put out here and his efficiency and stuff, and

94
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: then the fumbles were all rather troublesome. So like, I

95
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: don't think it's that crazy. I mean, it's not like

96
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: Jones went from having a Jordan Howard type season to

97
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: now being on the chopping block. He had an okay

98
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: run of a few games, mired in a lot of

99
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: troubles and now it's finding his way out the door.

100
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: By the way, m j D came out with a

101
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: column giving us his take on all these veteran running

102
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: back moves. We're talking about Marshawn Lynch to Oakland. YadA, YadA, YadA. Remember, uh,

103
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: Maurice Jones Drew was a noted fantasy enthusiast as well

104
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 1: as being an absolute beast. M j D one of

105
00:05:56,040 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: the guys on he's a he's okay, Yes, so he

106
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: clarified that he's still currently a fantasy So, I see

107
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: what you're saying. I see what you're saying. No, but

108
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: I just want to point out the fact that he

109
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,559
Speaker 1: he wasn't a fantasy enthusiast once he got on the show,

110
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,679
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He's been a long time

111
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: guy playing in fantasy for I mean forever, which is great,

112
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: which is it? But he was one of those first

113
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: star players really to advertise the fact that he was

114
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: so into fantasy football. That's so it's good, all right.

115
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: So he wrote a column you can find out on

116
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: NFL dot com. Has he written a column before? Does

117
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: anyone know? Fantasy column? Yeah? He sent us in some stuff.

118
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think he pops in every

119
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,040
Speaker 1: now and again with stuff for Ali bun Parade's original

120
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: content team. All right, so he wrote a column for

121
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 1: NFL dot com. He talks about all these veteran running

122
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: back moves. We'll get to a few. I'll let you

123
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: read a few, but just a couple that I wanted

124
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 1: to hit. How about la Garrett Blunt. He's projecting that

125
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: like he Blunt in Philadelphia can run between eleven and

126
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: twelve hundred yards okay, in twelve to fifteen touchdowns. That's

127
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: that's an aggressive touchdowns. The touchdowns seem a little aggressive.

128
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: That's okay. Even then, I think all of it is

129
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: probably a little aggressive. But that's the thing. That's the

130
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: running back mentality is that m j D won't listen

131
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: to reason and when you tell him, like dude, he's

132
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: not going there and he's not gonna do that, Like bro,

133
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: he's he's and you know, they it's like running back

134
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: like they always think that they overestimate not only themselves,

135
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: but how good all their contemporaries are as well. Like

136
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: that guy's like he'll go and I'm like, it's just

137
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: not He's just not gonna get the opportunity to do that.

138
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: They I should have said that the yards seemed more

139
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 1: aggressive because I I could see a scenario where he

140
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 1: ends up getting touched. Well, did they get a lot

141
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: of a lot of opportunity? But that's then you're looking

142
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: at a guy who has been pretty touchdown dependent, expecting

143
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: him to go in there and gets It's a risk.

144
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: The thing, it seemed cool with the Patriots because he

145
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: knew that offense was going to be explosive. But even

146
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: then you were kind of rolling the dice, and I wonder,

147
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: you wonder, you know, if Rob Gronkowski wasn't hurt for

148
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: a long time, like would he have gotten as many

149
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: red zone opportunities? And then I look at the Eagles

150
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, who's going to be the guy

151
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: who's when they get near the goal line? Like, who

152
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: is the other person outside of outside of Zach Ernst

153
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 1: at the at the end of the season, Al Sean

154
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: stop it in the sixth come on, believe in al Sean?

155
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: Why not? I wanted to And he never really produced

156
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: like he was supposed to. Okay, alright, fine. He also

157
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: was projecting Danny Woodhead. He says, Danny Woodhead, I figure

158
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: you guys get a kick out of this one, Danny Woodhead.

159
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: He says it's gonna be Baltimore's new Ray Rice. Four

160
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: fifty yards rushing, five hundred receiving, so total, seven touchdowns.

161
00:08:55,040 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead in Baltimore, good projections. Aggressive think the rejection

162
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: is fine, but that's Ray Rice never had a season

163
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: like that. He always had a lot more production. So like,

164
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: I don't I don't get the Ray Rice comparison, but

165
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: I think Danny Woodhead, I mean, that's kind of his

166
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: his vein as he'll get you know, eight d to

167
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,599
Speaker 1: a thousand total yards and find his me into the

168
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: end zone a handful of times. All Right, there you go.

169
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: You guys excited about Danny Woodhead in Baltimore. Of course,

170
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: how could you not be? How could you not be?

171
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: Terence West is there? Uh, that's I kind of like

172
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: Terence West in that situation. Mike Woodhead is fine. I

173
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: think that San Diego found a really nice rhythm with

174
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: him in a way to utilize him. I'm not sure

175
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: that Baltimore is going to do the same. It's not

176
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: like if Mike McCoy had moved their Wait, Mike mcgoy

177
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: didn't go there, right, No, Mike went back to Denver. Yes,

178
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: so I'm not expecting so funny. Um, I'm not expecting

179
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: him to have that kind of It's it's just it's

180
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: a dangerous game to be like, well if he had

181
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,199
Speaker 1: this here, yeah, then that same production is gonna have

182
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,839
Speaker 1: Like That's that's not the way it always works. So

183
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: I'm I'm excited to be because I think he's going

184
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: to help fill the role avoided by Kyle us Chick

185
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: who left. And he had forty nine targets there last year.

186
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: I think he had fifty some of the year before

187
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: even more. He's they like to throw to their backs

188
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: in Baltimore. Joe Flacco has a history of doing that

189
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 1: with Ray Rice. I mean last year Terence West that

190
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 1: over forty targets. So did Kenneth Dixon. That's the thing.

191
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: It's like Terence West can catch the ball as well.

192
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: Kenny Dixon comes back. It wasn't. It was never like

193
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: Woodhead was the only bat catching passes in San Diego

194
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 1: and stuff too. He was he literally was sorry. Every

195
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: I wonder too if they'll utilize them, you know. And

196
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: we're seeing this movement right of versatile running backs being

197
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: moved into the slot. I wonder if they'll do that

198
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: in Baltimore with him, well, because they don't really have

199
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: a lot of pass catchers there. When they don't have

200
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: I don't feel like they without Steve Smith, they don't

201
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: have one of those designated guys that you would expect

202
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: to run on the slot like Wallace Pairman. They can

203
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: do a little bit of it there, but what head

204
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: would be a nice mismatch with how quick he is

205
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 1: in the short areas. That's what makes it at least

206
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: a little bit more interesting for me if I would

207
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: spend a late round flyer on Danil. Other other question

208
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 1: to ask yourself, and and this is sort of an

209
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 1: unknown is I mean we saw it didn't spend a

210
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: last year, come back and have a decent season. Only

211
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: had the two touchdowns, but seven weren't they both in

212
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: one game over seven hundred yards receiving, had a hundred

213
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 1: and twenty targets. Um, you wonder does he start to

214
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: see more red zone targets to this year? Okay, that's

215
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: an interesting thought. Dennis Pitta Man talk about a guy

216
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: coming off the scrap heap man. So there you go.

217
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: All right, let's break down the a f C West.

218
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,079
Speaker 1: We'll start with the Chiefs. They went twelve and four

219
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: last year. We'll start in their backfield. Spencer Where is

220
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: the starter, we believe, but there are some serious rumblings

221
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: that rookie Kareem Hunt could challenge there. As a result,

222
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: Where has some pretty volatile value Right now per Fantasy Pros,

223
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: he's ranked anywhere between seven and one hundred and ten.

224
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: That is a wide margin there, Marcus, Where you got

225
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: Spencer where? I mean, I think what we saw at

226
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 1: the Spencer where last year is kind of what we're

227
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: going to get. Um, it's just for me, he's still

228
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: a young guy. He's still a young guy. Just for me.

229
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: The Chief's offense does nothing to move the needle just

230
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 1: in general. Um, I mean, it's just it's just bland.

231
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: I do like the way Andy Reid uses his running back,

232
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: So I guess there's that. Um. But you know, I mean,

233
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: I think you'll see Spencer wear probably around nine or

234
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: so yards, you know, if he can get you, you know,

235
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: five or six touchdowns. I think that's that's kind of

236
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 1: what you're looking for. I mean, I think, but I

237
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: just don't know that there's much else they're available in

238
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: what is a generally play it safe. Uh, you know,

239
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: state conservative, just try not to lose the ballgame, sort

240
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: of offensive the Chiefs, so not great upside, you're saying

241
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: what Spencer wear is? That? Is that what I'm hearing?

242
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 1: Pretty much? I mean I think he he is what

243
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 1: he is at this point, and so you're if you're

244
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: getting him as an RB two, um, great, enjoy it.

245
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: I guess he probably I don't know. I guess in

246
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: this New world era where I am just you know,

247
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: just sad about the death of running backs, I guess

248
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 1: he's I guess he's a fringe RB one now, but

249
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 1: he fits your narrative, pal, Yeah, pretty much. The pretty

250
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 1: much can you talk to me about Kareem Hunt other

251
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 1: than I love him? That's what I'm and I know

252
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: you love I'm talking to me about. I mean, look,

253
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 1: he's gonna I think he will eventually surpass Shark Andrick West.

254
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: I think it could happen even by week one or

255
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: certainly earlier season. Look, man, I'm not I'm not putting

256
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 1: a lot of stock into some of these OTA reports

257
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: like whatever. We'll wait till we get the training camp

258
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:17,959
Speaker 1: to kind of put more stock into it. But I think,

259
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: you know, certainly early in the season he can surpass

260
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,839
Speaker 1: Shark Andrick West. I don't. I don't think he's going

261
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: to get Spencer weare just yet. But I love everything

262
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: he does and I think he's a great fit for

263
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 1: an Andy Reid offense. Tyreek Hill broke through big time

264
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: last year. The wide receiver fifteen. The wide receiver fifteen

265
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: last year. It's crazy. Two hundred sixty seven rush yards,

266
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: five hundred and ninety three receiving yards. He had nine

267
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: total scores. I feel like he had one more actually

268
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: that I'm missing here. A specialty doesn't Yeah, it doesn't count.

269
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: I think he had a couple of special team touchdowns,

270
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 1: but those those don't count for a standard fantasy scoring. Okay,

271
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: depend well, on our side, it doesn't. But I think

272
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: on other sides it does. But most most, uh most

273
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: of them don't count it in standard All right, there

274
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: you go, double digit scores in seven of his final

275
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 1: eleven weeks. He was actually pretty darn consistent all things considered,

276
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 1: considering this guy was picked up off the waiver wire.

277
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: By the way. For the record, he had three touchdowns

278
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:17,239
Speaker 1: on returns to puns, one on a kick Wow. Wow.

279
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: Alex Kalhar one year wonder for Tyreek Hill or is

280
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: he legit? No, I don't think he's the one year

281
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: wonder at all. I thought it would. The Tavon Austin

282
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: comparison was interesting. Um, and you're speaking to Tavon Austin's

283
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen season where he was the wide receiver twenty

284
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: five which prompted our very own Marcus Grant to write

285
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: at heartfelt missive about why Tavon Austin could be a

286
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: sleeper last year. I'm just I'm just painting the picture

287
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: of Tvon Austin here. Um. But I think the big

288
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: difference is that Hill was used a lot more as

289
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: a rookie in Austin was a couple used in the

290
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: league in fifteen as a traditional wide receiver than Austin was.

291
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: In that season, Austin only played played about uh of

292
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: his snaps out wide. They that's dropped since then. He

293
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: only played like forty some Last year. Hill played of

294
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: his snaps out wide as a rookie and almost and

295
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: even though he played fewer than Austin, had almost as

296
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: many yards, more touchdowns in a higher yards per catch

297
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: working outside as a traditional wide receiver. On top of that,

298
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: Austin had way more yards come from his rushing totals.

299
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: That year, he had forty seven point nine percent of

300
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: his Fantasy points came from rushing, only thirty came from Hill.

301
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: This picture here, he's got. He's got some nice ability

302
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: as a receiver out there. He can gain some separationals

303
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: because he's freakishly fast. So I don't think he's the

304
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: one hit wonder. I think right now he's being relatively

305
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: appropriately valued kind of in that wide receiver three flex

306
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: range because Maclin's coming back. He was just and it

307
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 1: wasn't that one of the big storylines last year that

308
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: Macklin was gone, and all of a sudden we saw

309
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: Tyree killing murder. He was ravaged with injuries last year,

310
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: was not effective at all, and Tyreek Hill came in.

311
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey still there became a bigger focal point of

312
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: the offense. And as Marcus said, this isn't and this

313
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: isn't a unit that you know is like the Saints

314
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 1: and it's going to pass it a bund to light

315
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: up the scoreboard on a regular basis. So still got

316
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: Alex Mean back there, so touchdowns could be harder to

317
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: come by, but I think Hill would be the type

318
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: of guy that could at least offer a safish yardage

319
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: floor and have the potential for those like weak winning performances.

320
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: If he's in your flex, I think you gotta feel

321
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: pretty good about that. No, absolutely, yeah, I like him

322
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: there Alright. Ask you a question about Tyreek Hill because

323
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: this was something that was raised on Twitter because we

324
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: both we're talking about Joe Joe Mixon not drafting him,

325
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: and somebody tweeted us and they had a number of

326
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: do you avoid? And I don't think he was trying

327
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: to be a he wasn't trolling us, um, but he

328
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 1: was asking do you not draft? He had Larry Fitzgerald

329
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: in there, which I didn't get. I didn't get that either.

330
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: I'm like one of the greatest guys in the league,

331
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: Like I don't I don't know what how. I don't

332
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: know how his name got into that mix, but Tyreek

333
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: Kill definitely falls in there. Where do you do you

334
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: pick him up? As Tyreek Hill? Also, you know I

335
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: do not draft list. I mean the number one the

336
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: number one thing for for Joe Mixon is there is

337
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: unbelievable evidence and the video right, so you could say, oh, well,

338
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: you know, how are you judging a gain of well, listen, man,

339
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're going into into the court of

340
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: law and there is video of you doing something, it's

341
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: game over, right, So you know, am I giving Tyreek

342
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,719
Speaker 1: Hill the benefit of the doubt? Not really? So, I mean,

343
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: obviously there's some question marks there, but I mean, I

344
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: gotta be honestly. It's not like I read his court report.

345
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. If the if the court

346
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: report had pictures allah Greg Hardy, then yeah, I'm not

347
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: touching Tyree Hill either. But I gotta be honest with you.

348
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: I didn't do the research on Tyreek Hill. Tyreek Hills passed.

349
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: So that's kind of where I stand. And And like

350
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 1: I said, if it's that egregious like Joe Mixon, I

351
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: don't feel that he punched his pregnant girlfriend. Who Tyreek

352
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: Hill is that, I don't. I mean, I think that

353
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: was the alexation, But I don't, Like I said, did

354
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 1: I do research into that. I have no idea. I

355
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 1: didn't do it. I know that those charges are out there.

356
00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 1: I just didn't do, you know, my homework into Tyreek killed.

357
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: That's all. So that's kind of where I stand. Look,

358
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: if it was like I said, if it was a

359
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: love Greg Hardy, yeah, man pictures or whatever, like and

360
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: and like I said, maybe it's on me because I

361
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: didn't read the court report. But I just didn't. So

362
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 1: that's kind of where I stand. All right, we'll get

363
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: back to fantasy. How about Travis Kelsey. He's widely regarded

364
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 1: as the tight end two, ahead of Jordan Read, ahead

365
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: of Greg Olsen, ranked in the forties. He was the

366
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 1: tight end one last year, which always surprises me. By

367
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: the way, when I look at that, I'm like, Travis

368
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: Kelsey was the tight end one last year. He had

369
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 1: four touchdowns total. Adam rank Well, a part of it

370
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: is because the position nobody really was was there to

371
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: step up in that void left by Rob Gronkowski. Jordan

372
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: Read's battling injuries, the Panthers had kind of a down year,

373
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: and Greg Olsen is getting a little bit older, and

374
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: now as we move into two thousand seventeen, he's gonna

375
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: be fighting players like Christian McCaffrey. I think Critis Samuel's

376
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of designed plays for him, so

377
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: his his value could also take a bit of a tumble. Kelsey,

378
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: to me, seems like the safest and he got over

379
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 1: a thousand receiving yards, which to me is huge, which

380
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: it shows he's a huge part of the offense. The touchdowns,

381
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: it's it's kind of a wild card because you would

382
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: hope that you're tight end gets targeted a little bit

383
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 1: more in the red zone and it's just not coming.

384
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: But he's he's a he's a weird though. He's a

385
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 1: weird mix because he's more he's more wide receiver than

386
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: he is tight end. Like like I I would like

387
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: Mike Evans somebody, a player like that fits into that

388
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 1: mold of red zone target more than Travis Kelsey would

389
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: or even like if you go back to Jimmy Graham

390
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: during his heyday, like he was so big and tall

391
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: you had to throw him the football when you got

392
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: near the goal line. Kelsey is not that dude. And

393
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: I I'm just saying this. I should have researched this,

394
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: but I've been neck deep and some other stuff here

395
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: at work, so I didn't. But I was, like, I

396
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 1: just have the perception that every one of Kelsey's four

397
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: touchdowns was at catching run somehow, well one of them was.

398
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: And this is and this is and it's very I

399
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: think that one stands out to make sure it's an

400
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: eight yard kitchen run. Yeah, that's what it was. It

401
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: just feels like they're all coverage, broken coverage, eight yard score.

402
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 1: He's an athletic dude, and he makes plays, but it

403
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like he he doesn't seem big enough to

404
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: kind of work that to his advantage like a lot

405
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: of other tight ends would do, like Jason Witten can

406
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:33,959
Speaker 1: somehow get open to provide context. He had seven targets

407
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: inside the ten yard line, one of which was a touchdown.

408
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: He had sixteen targets in the red zone, led the

409
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: team uh three touchdowns inside the twenty. So of his

410
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,880
Speaker 1: of his four touchdowns, three of him inside one came

411
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 1: inside the ten and the fourth was that he's breaking

412
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: those because it's not like Alex Smith can throw twenty yards.

413
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: How dare you? Yeah? He still he's still grumbling and

414
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: making a that's a good point. Um, I just think

415
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: at that value in the forties, and you guys can

416
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 1: tell me if I'm wrong, Marcus and Alex, but I

417
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: just feel like that's too high of I'm not even

418
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: saying that he's not necessarily going to be the tight

419
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 1: end too I just think in the forties, to take

420
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: a tight end there in the forties, that's tough for me,

421
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: but you're taking it. But you're taking a tight end

422
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: that you know you can count on week after week,

423
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: which he was the t he was the t one.

424
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: You're someone him being a top three tight end right now.

425
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: I mean he had yard games last year. It's also

426
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: been pretty consistent to two years prior. I think I

427
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 1: think this was a taste of like, I would you

428
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: be surprised if Travis Kelsey, as talented as he is

429
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: ended up with like a thousand yards and eight touchdowns

430
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 1: next year, if he broke a few more actually targeted

431
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 1: to be honestly, I wouldn't. But here's the thing though,

432
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 1: here's the tricky part from me. I think that there's

433
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: gonna be four or five guys in that eight hundred

434
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: to a thousand yard range that also pull in anywhere

435
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 1: between you know, sixty downs, So relative value wise, I

436
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 1: just I just don't see it. Yeah, I mean, it's

437
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: a little rich for my blood, but it's it's also

438
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: the ceiling. Like I mean, Greg Olsen has been a

439
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: top like what three ranked tight end for the last

440
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: several years, He's a guy that only ever gets a

441
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,719
Speaker 1: thousand yards and six touchdowns too, So like, I mean,

442
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: it's it's safety, but with a ceiling, Like, who do

443
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: you think who is the higher ceiling this year? Hammer

444
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: greg Olsen would be Kelsey? Well, is it him or

445
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: Jordan Read? Well? Yeah, Jordan read too, but Jordan Reads

446
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: going in the sixties. So that's that's kind of where

447
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: I would That's kind of where I would put Kelsey

448
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: in that sixties. Right, Yeah, I'm not I'm not disagreeing.

449
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: I'd rather take him lower, but I can understand people

450
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: taking him this high. All right, There you go. The

451
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: Raiders at twelve and four last year, obviously, they broke

452
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 1: through in a big time away from a team standpoint.

453
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: Quarterback Derek Carr was a nice find as well. Before

454
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 1: his injury. We hope he comes back and is slinging it.

455
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch, though, was the big storyline in the off season.

456
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: He had some town business to attend to playing for

457
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 1: his hometown team. Now. Former Raider m J d projects

458
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 1: Marshawn to go for eight fifty on the ground with

459
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: ten touchdowns. Rank you down with that projection, you know,

460
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: there he goes breaking the narrative that I had put

461
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: out there for him that m JD was gonna overestimate

462
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 1: what Marshawn Lynch was able to do. But I believe

463
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: he's being a little conservative on his yards. Uh, he's

464
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 1: getting double digit touchdowns. That's gonna happen. If Marshawn Lynch

465
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: stays healthy and plays the majority of the year, He's

466
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: getting double digit touchdowns. An offensive line is way too good,

467
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: so he's gonna he's gonna hit those marks. I think

468
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 1: that that Marshawn I think that's somebody I'm willing to

469
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: go in on, and I know that older running backs

470
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: take him before the fifth round. If I'm sitting there

471
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 1: in the fourth round and I have a choice between

472
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey and Marshawn Lynch, I'm taking Lynch absolutely. Like

473
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: he's you can count on him to score touchdowns. It

474
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: would almost be impossible for him not to to be

475
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: healthy and to play most of the season. I'll say, listen,

476
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: he's gonna He's a veteran, he'll probably get dinged up

477
00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: a gamer here, but a prolific Raiders offense that's gonna

478
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,439
Speaker 1: give him every opportunity once they get inside the tan

479
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 1: yard line, and they're not gonna make that mistake. They're

480
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 1: not gonna Pete Carroll him. They're not gonna try to

481
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: get to fancy. They're going to Marshawn Lynch. True, alright, true, true.

482
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper Michael Crabtree separated, but just one fantasy point

483
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: last year Crabs with one fifty total fantasy points. Coop

484
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: with one nine a thousand yards and eight touchdowns for

485
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 1: Michael Crabtree eleven fifty three and five touchdowns for Amari Cooper.

486
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 1: Despite this, Amari being ranked and taken about two rounds

487
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: before Michael Crabtree twenties versus the forties, we're seeing Crabtree

488
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 1: go Marcus at those prices, Who do you prefer? Crabs

489
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: all day, all day, all day long, all day. I mean,

490
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: let's think about the first two years that a Marie

491
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: Cooper has been in the NFL. He has been outperformed

492
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:54,400
Speaker 1: fantasy wise by Michael Crabtree. True. You know, Crabtree gets

493
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: a lot of those tough catches. He seems to be

494
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: the guy. Especially saw earlier in the year last year

495
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: that he was the guy like Derek Carr trusted on

496
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: Keith third downs. He got a lot of looks in

497
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: the red Seth Roberts was more productive in the red

498
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: zone last year than Mariy Cooper was. Um, you know.

499
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: And now you add to the fact that Marshawn lynches

500
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: here and he's going to be the guy who gets

501
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: a lot of those short yarded goal line red zone carries,

502
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: which makes it even harder for Mark Cooper to get

503
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: those looks in the red zone. So right now, I

504
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: look and I like a Mark Cooper. I think he's

505
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: a talented player. But if we're if we're talking about

506
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: value and for the price, I would rather have Michael Crabtree.

507
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: Alex you you agree with that. I agree. We keep

508
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,880
Speaker 1: spinning this narrative and hoping that a Mark Cooper could

509
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: be you are used in the red zone, but the

510
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: simple fact matter is he hasn't and he hasn't been

511
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: very effective there over the last two years. Crabtree thirty

512
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: four targets in the red zone, eight touchdowns. Cooper twenty

513
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: targets in the red zone, two touchdowns. Seth Roberts targets

514
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: in the red zone nine touchdown. More targets for Seth

515
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: Roberts in the red zone than yeah than Cooper. And

516
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: more touchdowns even than crab Trade. So I think, you know,

517
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: when it comes out of this, Like I I understand

518
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 1: like Mark Cooper was a big play specialist in college.

519
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: We have seen him make big plays here, but being

520
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: reliant on that is feels risky for a guy that

521
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,439
Speaker 1: we're drafting as like a low and you know, low

522
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: end wide receiver one, high end wide receiver two. I'd

523
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: much rather wait around and get Crabtree, you know, siering

524
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 1: to probably like I could see Cooper hitting a few

525
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 1: more of those big plays, and I was scaring Crabtree,

526
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: but they're going to score close to the same amount

527
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 1: of points, and I'd rather take the guy that's coming

528
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: twenty picks later. Yeah, you're You're not wrong. And I

529
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: think I think the valuation there for a MARII Cooper

530
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,959
Speaker 1: is housed a lot in the fact that he's younger, right,

531
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: he's entering his third season. He's great, he's super talented,

532
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: But I just think Crabtree makes more sense and fantasy.

533
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: There you go. The Broncos nine and seven last year.

534
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: C J. Anderson missed the final nine games after tearing

535
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: his meniscus. Didn't look that great even when he was healthy,

536
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: he was okay, he was okay, he wasn't bad, but

537
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: he was just okay. Meanwhile, Maurice Jones Drew was projecting

538
00:26:55,359 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: veteran Jamal Charles to go for eight five and ten

539
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: touchdown spicy for dude who may not even be on

540
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 1: the roster. He's fifty fifty to make the roster, going

541
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 1: to Mike Cliss from there in nine News in Denver.

542
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: But meanwhile m j D says Jamal Charles j C

543
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 1: could go on the ground and ten touchdowns. Alex okay.

544
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 1: I'm glad that he got back on the narrative, a minor,

545
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: minors step into reality, and then he had to jump

546
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: back onto the crazy Alex Keller are your thoughts on

547
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,439
Speaker 1: this entire backfield? I am still a c. J. Anderson fan.

548
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: I disagree from me a little bit, and that he

549
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: looked like just okay. Last year he played pretty well early.

550
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 1: That offensive line was a disaster last maybe that's what

551
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: it was. And there were a number of games. I

552
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: was actually just looking this back up because I remember

553
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: my my father angrily texting me expletives over frustrating games C. J.

554
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: Anderson was having against the Chargers. It was not only

555
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: Not only were the Broncoes struggling, but C. J. Anderson

556
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: kept getting uh good runs called back on holes and

557
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: stuff that weren't even he had like a couple ten

558
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 1: yards is a fifteen yard I think he even had

559
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: a touchdown that would have like won them the game

560
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter called back on a penalty. So

561
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: like all all those things and only his seven games

562
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 1: could have helped him out. But I mean Booker didn't,

563
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: you know, particularly apply himself very well when he was

564
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 1: given the starting role tomorrow, Charles, he said old coming

565
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: off a ton of injuries, like long shot to make

566
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 1: the roster. I think Anderson is gonna fall in draft,

567
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: and if he can fall to the right spot, it

568
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: could be a nice value. Like he was on pace

569
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: and hashtag on pace had become the new mark ingram

570
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: for us. But he was on pace for about you know,

571
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: twelve to thirt yard total yard season and close to

572
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: ten touchdowns. You'll take that all day long, yes, Emmanuel

573
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: Sanders d Marius Thomas. I gets sad thinking about these

574
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: guys stuck there with Trevor Simon and or Paxton Lynch.

575
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: Next year, DT had ten eighty three through the year

576
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: five touchdowns. Emmanuel Sanders ten thirty two, receiving five touchdowns,

577
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: just two points seven points separated the pair last year.

578
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: Despite that, Demarrius Thomas is going around the fourth round

579
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: and ten team standard leagues, Sanders is going around round six.

580
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: I don't wreak your thoughts there. I really like the

581
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: McCoy is going back there though, and I think that's

582
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: gonna bring some stability whoever they're gonna end up going with.

583
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: I think Trevor Simeon at times looked like a credible quarterback.

584
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: They have to fix the offensive line. That really, that's

585
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: the hardest thing is when you have a quarterback trying

586
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: to learn on the job and get better and progress,

587
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: that offensive line is not giving you time to get

588
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: the receivers the football. It's not gonna work. So I'm

589
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I know, um, six,

590
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 1: fourth round for DT is way too early. I mean,

591
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: I would have to see how this shakes out. But

592
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, if I don't want anybody's in the

593
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 1: best shape of his life. That's true. And Emmanuel Sanders

594
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 1: in the six. Now you're starting to talk like, yeah, okay,

595
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: I would rather go for that if I had to

596
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: pick between the two, I think that targeting Samuel's Samuel

597
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: Samuel Sanders standards. Man, I I got it. I've just

598
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 1: made him one word. I like he's made it easier. Um.

599
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: I would go with him in the sixth round because

600
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a much better value. But I do

601
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: think I am am I wrong. I think Trevor Simeon

602
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: can be pretty good. I think if you give him

603
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: a chance. I think the issue ever since, I think

604
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: the issues he may not get a chance. It may

605
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: be in Paxton now he's no, it's not. I don't

606
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: know why I'm saying that, but they think they spent

607
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: the first round draft pick on Paxston Lynch. People forgetting

608
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 1: that happens. Sometimes that happens. I mean, you gotta give

609
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 1: him at least a chance. Now, I mean they don't

610
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: even give him a chance. Maybe not this year. I

611
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: mean it's well, you know, and you bring in an

612
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator and a head coach who do not have

613
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: a tie to Paxton Lynch. I mean that's true. That's

614
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: the one thing is that these guys can go in

615
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: and say, you know what, I'm gonna pick the quarterback

616
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: that I think is the best who's giving us the

617
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: best opportunity to win. But neither one of these guys

618
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: have any ties to him, And I think that lay

619
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: would understand, like, look like we don't care, like I'm

620
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 1: I think. I think the laws of Harry Kubiacto is

621
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,959
Speaker 1: going to be disastrous. I do. He's been he's been

622
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: so great working with quarterbacks, and now all of a

623
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 1: sudden he's gone there they're learning a brand new system.

624
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a tough division. I just, oh, man,

625
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm anticipating bad things for that Broncos

626
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: offense this year. All right, the Chargers were five and

627
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: eleven last year. Melvin Gordon was your RB eight. After

628
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: much handeringing his rookie year, he actually played pretty well

629
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: in his sophomore campaign on the ground four nineteen through

630
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: the year, basically fourteen hundred total yards, twelve total touchdowns.

631
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: He was a stats beast. But Marcus, let me ask

632
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: you this, can he do it again? Because some of

633
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 1: those efficiency metrics, man, they were scary. Just three point

634
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: nine yards per carring. I mean, I guess I would

635
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: be more worried if there was somebody who's going to

636
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: take touches away from him. Um, you know, yeah, I

637
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 1: know people I've seen it on Twitter that people are

638
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: freaked out about the efficiency. One three point nine isn't awful,

639
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I know everybody wants to be

640
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: able to everybody wants to be above four. Right, but

641
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: let me let's let's think about this real. Let's let's

642
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 1: about this in reality, right, three point nine yards per carry,

643
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: you run it three times, you got a first down.

644
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: I like, you run the ball, But I'm just saying

645
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 1: we're talking average. That's that's that's the freak out right,

646
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: because it's the average is three point nine. But if

647
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: you're talking about averaging three point nine yards every time

648
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: you touch the ball, you run it three times, that's

649
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: the first down. You keep on marching down the fields.

650
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 1: The game plan, just run it every time. Hey, look,

651
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 1: I've I've met high school coaches who thought were so

652
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: you know, so there's nobody that's gonna come in and

653
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: take touches from him. Maybe maybe the tin touchdowns, the

654
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: tin Russian touchdowns may be tough. But what you're worried

655
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 1: about Brandon Oliver Olivier best shape of his life. So yeah,

656
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 1: I feel like you just made that up. By the way,

657
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: Olivier like they're talking big about him, are they? Yeah,

658
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: they're talking him up here in Los Angeles. I was

659
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: about this. It is down in San Diego because that's

660
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: when they're practice. They haven't had their their facility up

661
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: and running it because they probably didn't think that through. Dude.

662
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking Melvin Gordon regression, okay, because Wikipedia defines

663
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: regression as this Wisconsin running backs. I think on Melvin Gordon. Yes,

664
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: he yes, the efficiency was bad last year, but his

665
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: offensive line was man was like mangled and shuffled up.

666
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: There was deficiency in the passing game because everybody was

667
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 1: injured and Philip Rivers fell apart down the stretch. So

668
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,239
Speaker 1: you look at the fact that he's still almost put

669
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: up a thousand yards, ten touchdowns, and just shy of

670
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: four yards to carry in that disastrous situation. You come

671
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: back now with a fully loaded offense that should have

672
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: more scoring opportunity, that has a better correlation with like

673
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: a running back success than quote unquote efficiency metrics. But

674
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: isn't but that, But the efficiency metrics shows that he

675
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 1: shouldn't have been as productive as he was, which means

676
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: that those numbers especially they're gonna slide back down. It's like,

677
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: because that's how oh like with baseball metrics, he always

678
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: look at it like, well, this guy's got twelve home runs,

679
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: but his metrics show that he's gonna regress, and then

680
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 1: that you see in the second half of the season

681
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,320
Speaker 1: he has Well I know this because I used to

682
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 1: have Mark Trumbo all the time and all my fantasy teams.

683
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 1: I I would know. And that's why, like these guys

684
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 1: are streaky and everything like that. And it could be

685
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: a situation where Gordon outperformed. What does metrics tell you

686
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 1: he should be performing and that he will go back

687
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: to being the running back that he was as a rookie?

688
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: I mean, which which one's which? Which metrics indicated that

689
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 1: he shouldn't have been as successful though, I mean he

690
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 1: saw seventy one opportunities in the red zone, Like they

691
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: gave him the ball plenty there and he scored. He

692
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: scored twelve times, but couldn't there are yards yards per carry?

693
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: Isn't that indicative of future or negative fantasy sec But

694
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: if he's not that effective as a runner, that means

695
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: that he could be shut down in those red zone

696
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: opportunities and now you're you're depending on him to reach

697
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 1: that twelve touchdown mark that he probably just doesn't have

698
00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: the ability to get to. That's kind of where I

699
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: would worry too. I don't know if he's gonna get

700
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 1: those double digit touchdowns next year. Maybe maybe not. Double

701
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: digit touchdowns is hard to repeat. But I mean, if

702
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: we're saying that because he wasn't that effective, he's going

703
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: to score less even though he wasn't effective and he

704
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: still scored twelve touchdowns, I don't quite follow the logic

705
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: in that in that sentence, why are you trying to

706
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 1: take the few running backs we still But I mean, like, dude,

707
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a workhorse, Like, it's not gonna but

708
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 1: he's outperforming what he's actually doing. That I think that's

709
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 1: I think that's fair. I think that's why. I think

710
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 1: that's the point, right that if you look at and

711
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: that's why it's like why Aaron Rodgers, Okay, Aaron Rodgers

712
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: was successful on four hail Mary's last year, So why

713
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 1: doesn't he go back and do that every play? Why not?

714
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know, he probably should, but it's like,

715
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,280
Speaker 1: because well, that's not always gonna work, and so Gordon

716
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 1: was able to outperform his refing to one high variants

717
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: play versus like running back and all these plays. I

718
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: don't think that's a great and now there too, I

719
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: think there are two different things. I don't know how

720
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: you're I don't know other how else to explain it

721
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,720
Speaker 1: is that he's outperforming his metrics, which over the course

722
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: of a career would mean that he's going to come

723
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: back to the running back that he is. I mean,

724
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: the NFL has prime examples. And if I would have

725
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 1: thought this through enough, I would have gone through and

726
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: looked them up. Of players who have one season where

727
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 1: they outperform their numbers, you know where they outperform what

728
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 1: their metrics will tell you what they should be doing.

729
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: And this was a This was a magical circumstance for

730
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: Gordon to go out there and get double digit touchdowns

731
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: and then going forward he's gonna go back to being

732
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 1: an eight touchdown type of back. I'm not sitting here

733
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 1: defending that he's going to get twelve every time. I

734
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: just think like that's going to happen, Like he's gonna

735
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 1: touch touchdowns and fluctuate. They are one. They are like

736
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: the hardest thing to predict if I'm understanding correctly, though, Alex,

737
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 1: what you what you are arguing though, is that his

738
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:58,720
Speaker 1: situation is likely to improve, which would help his metrics

739
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: improve as well. We also don't know if this is

740
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: an outlier his his rookie year. You know he was

741
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: he was banged up. There were also a lot of

742
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,839
Speaker 1: things like he also looked significantly better even just how

743
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 1: he ran, and he know he powered through last year.

744
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: So I I just think it's foolish potential. Yeah, a

745
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 1: little bit more health. So then James, who would you

746
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: rather have? Yes, Melvin Gordon or j J. I J Well,

747
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 1: that well, it depends where you're gonna have to draft him,

748
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 1: because like Melvin Gordon is never don't they. I don't

749
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: think there's similar But I mean, if we're worried about me,

750
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 1: like j J. I had three two yard games last year,

751
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: which completely throws everything out of whack. Will But I

752
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 1: think the more the argument for Melvin Gordon should be

753
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 1: would you rather have Melvin Gordon or Lashawn McCoy, Mike Evans,

754
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 1: A J Green, Jordan Howard. I'd take Melvin Gordon a

755
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: hundred out of a hundred times over Jordan Howard. I

756
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 1: don't know Jordan Howard, b h L. I saw he

757
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,760
Speaker 1: slimmed down. Were excited. Give me the running back offense

758
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: that's gonna score a lot of points, not the I

759
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: was trying the one led by Mike Glennon slash Mitchell True. Yeah, yeah,

760
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: I just I gave that silent pause because I had

761
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: to think about that for a second. But you know what,

762
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,919
Speaker 1: his offensive Wait a minute, his offensive line is way better.

763
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: He's gonna get more opportunity. Whose offensive line is the Bears,

764
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:24,359
Speaker 1: especially the interior, Yeah, where it really counts, although they're

765
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: coming in band up too though we've got Josh Sitton

766
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: is another year older and missed a bunch of games.

767
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: Still long, still recovering. I don't know anyways, whatever, all right,

768
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: let's move on. Let's talk whow we went down to

769
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: crazy Belvin Gordon rabbit hole. Uh, it's because he's going

770
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,359
Speaker 1: in the first round. That's why, Like this is gonna

771
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: be a Todd Gurley type of situation for Meldon. Wow,

772
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: we need to write up, we need to write up.

773
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 1: Let's make it. Okay, Adam, Mike is gonna get you

774
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: this right up. I'm telling you what. Yes, that's right,

775
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 1: you're get in line, the team gets a healthy Keenan

776
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 1: Allen back theoretically anyways, you blow out his a c

777
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 1: L last year. Uh, the Clemson big play receiver Mike

778
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 1: Williams into the mix with Tyrrell Williams and Travis Benjamin Rank,

779
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: tell us why you're so high on Mike Williams. I

780
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: feel the Chargers are gonna have to throw the ball

781
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: more than anything, and I still think that they have

782
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: some concerns, especially with Keenan Allen, who's battled injuries throughout

783
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: his entire career, and so at some point Mike Williams

784
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: is going to be the go to He yeah, he

785
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 1: he really is. And I I paused because you know,

786
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to get too locked up into what

787
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,399
Speaker 1: he was able to do at Clemson. But you see

788
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 1: a guy out there and and I guess you could

789
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: have said this about the Kwan Treadwell, like how good

790
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: he looked, But god, Mike Williams just looks so great

791
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: at Clemson. And I think that the Chargers taking him

792
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:53,439
Speaker 1: in that seventh spot when everybody was saying like there,

793
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: you know, because people were giving me grief for saying

794
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: that they were going to take Christian McCaffrey. But they're like,

795
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: there's no way they're drafting defense. It's automatic and for

796
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: them to have a serious need in the defensive secondary,

797
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: and they still went with Mike Williams there. They might

798
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: not believe in Keenan Allen. They might want to have

799
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: a little bit of insurance. And Tyrell Williams was fine.

800
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: He was good like he was. He was serviceable. But

801
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: when you take a serviceable player like that and try

802
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,479
Speaker 1: to make him a number one receiver doesn't It doesn't

803
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 1: always work, like Marvin Jones last year. So I think

804
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,319
Speaker 1: that if Mike Williams can come in, and I think

805
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 1: having Keenan Allen there for as long as he could

806
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: be on the field will only benefit him. And I

807
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 1: think Travis Benjamin is a is a good fit for

808
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: that offense to not necessarily the best fantasy fit, but

809
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: I think Mike Williams can step in and be productive

810
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 1: right away. I love what he does in conjunction with

811
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,359
Speaker 1: what Philip Rivers does too, right because Philip Rivers loves

812
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:46,919
Speaker 1: to sit back there and look for the big play,

813
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 1: and Mike Williams is one of the best big play

814
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: receivers out there. You know what I mean, And and

815
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: he already has that chemistry with big body receivers all

816
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,240
Speaker 1: throughout his entire career, right, so he's such a perfect

817
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 1: Chargers receiver, Like like I should have thought of that.

818
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: I got enamored with the woodhead McCaffrey type thing. But

819
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, I see it now, Like that was

820
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: a pretty good pick for that. Alex Galehard give me

821
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: your take on Keenan Allen and Tyrrell Williams. I think

822
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,760
Speaker 1: I think you're right rank that, Uh, Mike Williams probably

823
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 1: is a little bit of Keenan Allen insurance, like worst

824
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 1: case scenario, if Alan's injuries continue to catch up with them,

825
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 1: they have a new guy who can step in and

826
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: be the number one. Best case scenario, Alan stays healthy

827
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: and now they're just loaded at wide receiver to make

828
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 1: make a Super Bowl run before Philip Rivers hangs him up.

829
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 1: So I think Alan is still He's never gonna push

830
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,360
Speaker 1: the like absurd number of catch pace or whatever he

831
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: was on before he got injured, especially with all these

832
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,319
Speaker 1: guys here now. But I think he's still a good

833
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: pace for like a hundred something out something outrageous. But

834
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 1: I still think he's gonna be a solid guy. He's

835
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: probably gonna be Philip Rivers go to at least for

836
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,879
Speaker 1: now um, and he's appropriately valued in like the middle

837
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: of the third round or wherever he's going because of

838
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 1: his injuries. Asked for Tyrell Williams, I think he's totally

839
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: worth taking a late round stab at Like I was

840
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,439
Speaker 1: looking at his a DP current lee uh and where

841
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: in mfl's twelve team leagues he's going in the ninth round.

842
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,839
Speaker 1: He and Mike Williams interestingly are going on average at

843
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 1: pick one twelve and then pick one on Fantasy Football Calculator.

844
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: Tyrrell's going uh four rounds later than Mike Williams. So

845
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,919
Speaker 1: because the nfls are typically a little more like sharp

846
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 1: drafters than Fantasy Football Calculator later, which is a little

847
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 1: more casual. So I think Williams is certainly worth a stab.

848
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 1: Like I mean, we don't know Keenan Allen's health, we

849
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 1: don't quite yet know how Mike Williams is going to

850
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: transition to the NFL. It's worth the shot. Worst case

851
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 1: scenario you caught him, best case scenario you might have

852
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 1: like a matchup based flex guy and in games that

853
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: figure to be shootouts and things like that. All right,

854
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,760
Speaker 1: There's also reports that Hunter Henry will be the quote

855
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 1: main tight end next year, but that Antonio Gates will

856
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 1: still be mixed in on third downs and in red

857
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 1: zone situations. This sounds like a tight end by committee

858
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: situation there in San Diego. I don't know. I know

859
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 1: a lot of folks were very high on Hunter Henry

860
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:01,879
Speaker 1: going in. I think these reports, it's though, it makes

861
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 1: me damp in at least the touchdown upside for Hunter Henry.

862
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: And if we're talking about touchdown upside for a tight end,

863
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 1: oh man, that makes it tough. Alright, we move on

864
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 1: open floor real quick. Before at least San Diego I

865
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,399
Speaker 1: had accidentally had a separate year clicked. Uh Gordon had

866
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: fifty eight opportunities in the red zone las year. I

867
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: said I higher number before that. Alright, open floor. Give

868
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 1: me a fancy storyline very quickly that I'm missing in

869
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: the a f C West will start with you, MG,

870
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:28,759
Speaker 1: Mike got Marcus Grant. I mean, I think going back

871
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 1: to Denver and their quarterback situation, I mean I think

872
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 1: that that's going to be interesting there. I mean Simmey

873
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 1: and obviously comes in as the incumbent. But the early

874
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: scuttle butt out of Denver is that you know they're

875
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: they're going to give Paxton Lynch every opportunity to try

876
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 1: to be the starting quarterback this year. And I think

877
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 1: if that changes the way the offense works, I think

878
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: it it suddenly turns into Lynch seems to be a

879
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: little bit more of a freewheeling guy, guy who's gonna,

880
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:52,560
Speaker 1: you know, try to make plays with his leg at

881
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 1: least extend plays with his legs, get out of the

882
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 1: pocket and go down field. So you know, the Broncos

883
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: and I think, have been very adept at running that

884
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 1: bubble screen, that wide receiver screen and letting guys like

885
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 1: Sanders and Thomas take it the rest of the way.

886
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: But this could be a thing where maybe you start

887
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 1: to see those guys as more downfield threats, which we

888
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,959
Speaker 1: know they can be. If Lynch the sides, he wants

889
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 1: to If Lynch ends up being the quarterback in the sides,

890
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 1: he wants to just kind of air it out occasionally.

891
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: Alex killhar storyline in the f C West we touched

892
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,640
Speaker 1: on briefly talking about Tyreek Hill, but the return of

893
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 1: Jeremy Macklin if he is fully healthy, what's there we go?

894
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:29,279
Speaker 1: I didn't even didn't put that stupid of me. Wow, Uh.

895
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 1: This is the guy that in four targets, eighty seven catches,

896
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 1: over a thousand yards and eight touchdowns in this Alex

897
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 1: Smith led offense. How is this gonna break down? With

898
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey they finally started using him like a feature

899
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,800
Speaker 1: repon he should be last year? Is that going to change?

900
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 1: Is your star Macklin and Hill gonna vulture each other?

901
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,399
Speaker 1: Is this offense suddenly gonna take flight and actually score

902
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: more touchdowns with Alex Smith under center? That would be crazy,

903
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 1: would be crazy. A lot of question marks, but we

904
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 1: cannot forget about Jeremy Macklin. This is a good player

905
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: who has commanded all out of volume in the past,

906
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 1: and one injury ravage situation isn't likely to change that

907
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: for good. Adam rank storyline in the f C West

908
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers being an undervalued fantasy quarterback. I think the

909
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 1: good good calls all around here. People like every year,

910
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 1: like the guy. Last year he was a little bit

911
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 1: banged up and things kind of got away from them.

912
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: But great to start the year though, Yeah he was

913
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 1: he was crushing it. He was crushing it, but he

914
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: but then he got crushed. Yes, and he's not going

915
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 1: to do that again. I don't think he's going to

916
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 1: be in situations because a lot of times he was pressing,

917
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: he was trying to make plays, he was trying to

918
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: see something that wasn't there. But I don't think that's

919
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:36,880
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem this year. I think with the

920
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 1: bevy of wide receivers at his disposal, and I really

921
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 1: do believe that Hunter Henry is gonna step up. How

922
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: many how many touchdowns is Antonio Gates away from the

923
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: record just a couple? It's not many? Might what three

924
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: last year or something? Just get him his g D

925
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: record already and then and then we can go back

926
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: to Hunter Henry. Then it will be open that all right,

927
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,399
Speaker 1: there you go. All right, let's close out your show

928
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:13,920

00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 1: whoever is running the r C Cola Twitter account because

931
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 1: they have a Twitter account, believe it or not, right,

932
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,279
Speaker 1: I mean beautiful. I mean I don't think anybody we

933
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:27,319
Speaker 1: know about it now because of the tweet I don't

934
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 1: think anybody drinks our C cola like outside of the

935
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 1: state of Texas. But you know, hey, um, they've been

936
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 1: coming for folks today. I mean it all started obviously

937
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 1: there was the co fe fay you know trend last

938
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,399
Speaker 1: night after you know, the president you know, sent out

939
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:43,480
Speaker 1: a typo or a weird tweet or whatever. Uh and

940
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 1: so does that look like every drunk tweet you ever?

941
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: Pretty much that you ever that you ever sent, like,

942
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 1: you know, you tweet and you pass out in the

943
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: morning such a good tree or a text, and then

944
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 1: you go to bed and you wake up and you've

945
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 1: got you've got all these responses like I want to know,

946
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: how in the how did that not get auto corrected?

947
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 1: Who knows it was late? Who knows? So? So R

948
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 1: C Cola made a joke like pretty much everybody else

949
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,800
Speaker 1: on Twitter about it. A couple of people tried to,

950
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,600
Speaker 1: you know, give them a hard time, at which point

951
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 1: they responded back with a couple of very snarky and

952
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 1: outstanding memes. Um, I'm not gonna buy any R C Cola, Like,

953
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 1: don't get it twisted. But whoever whoever was righting the account, like,

954
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:30,120
Speaker 1: kudos to you and I'm undapping all the O t

955
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 1: A practice reports and all the O t A chatter

956
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,799
Speaker 1: that's on Twitter, and like this morning, when you got

957
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: something else to do, man, come on, pointy of other

958
00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: things in this world going on right now that don't

959
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:46,279
Speaker 1: involve me going gaga over Kelvin Benjamin in shorts making

960
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 1: a half assed one handed catch with nobody near him. Like,

961
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 1: let's stop. You know, everybody is great on May thirty one.

962
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: Everybody's going to have an amazing season except apparently Ryan Tannehill,

963
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 1: who apparently stinks in practice right now. But like we're

964
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: sitting here, everybody's going just nuts over these like little

965
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 1: reports of teams in shells not really going full steam,

966
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 1: and everybody's talking about how great everybody is. People are

967
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:13,760
Speaker 1: still stretching their legs. It's let's stop. Let's just stop

968
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:16,920
Speaker 1: these beat reporters. They need to work, man, they need

969
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,200
Speaker 1: to get some stop. What's the excuse to create some content?

970
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 1: Excuse for the non beat reporters in fantasy Twitter that

971
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: just is like eating up every single I don't stop

972
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,840
Speaker 1: it there addicts and their first hit of the year. Man, People,

973
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,439
Speaker 1: people stop taking an interest in things that pay us money. Yeah,

974
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 1: how dare you? How dare you stop paying attention to football?

975
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 1: Don't download fantasy am I say to say Alex galhar

976
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:48,920
Speaker 1: daily depths, uh daily undaps for me to all of

977
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:53,759
Speaker 1: the people, mostly men, uh men, who are up in

978
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 1: arms over the few female only Wonder Women's screenings taking

979
00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 1: place across America during the opening weekend. Yes, there was

980
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 1: a bunch. There was a bunch of bullets, and I'll

981
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 1: believe that later outrage by cry baby man like this

982
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,399
Speaker 1: is an equality. It goes both ways. Shut the hell

983
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: up and get over yourself. If you're upset over like

984
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 1: one random female only Wonder Woman screening. She's an iconic

985
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 1: feminist icon, one of the most iconic like super heroines

986
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 1: in a predominantly male dominated on the writing, art and

987
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 1: character side. Get over yourself. It is the most ridiculous

988
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:34,759
Speaker 1: thing I've ever seen, and I cannot believe people are

989
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 1: so up in arms about it. It is ridiculous. They

990
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 1: are not banning you from seeing the movie they are doing.

991
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:44,839
Speaker 1: They are celebrating women with a few showings on opening night.

992
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 1: Guess what, there's more than one theater in your city.

993
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 1: It is one of the stupidest things I've seen in

994
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,880
Speaker 1: which is saying a lot because it's I'm getting more

995
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 1: heated about it over here, So it's basically all I'm

996
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:00,040
Speaker 1: gonna say. But if you're listening to this podcast and

997
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 1: you were upset or thought that was some in inequality

998
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 1: or injustice, pause this podcast. Go sit outside and we

999
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 1: think your life and your priorities and the and the

1000
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: person who is kind of one of the people who

1001
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 1: is the most but hurt responded that we should have

1002
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: a guy's only, guys only viewing of Star Wars. And

1003
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: this was the same guy who wanted to boycott Star

1004
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:33,800
Speaker 1: Wars or Rogue one. Have the last guys only nineteen

1005
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 1: hundred approximately years not been enough for you? I guess

1006
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,439
Speaker 1: what how about we get rid of the guys only

1007
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 1: committee to design our own healthcare? That would be useful.

1008
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:46,400
Speaker 1: I could get rid of that. I guess. My question

1009
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,239
Speaker 1: is how how out of it do you have to be?

1010
00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 1: How much how little do you have to have going

1011
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,400
Speaker 1: on in your life that a you would be upset

1012
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,880
Speaker 1: by it and then be you would actually go and

1013
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,879
Speaker 1: do something about it. There are think pieces written about

1014
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:03,040
Speaker 1: people trying to like make come up and shoot protest this,

1015
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,600

Speaker 1: catch on the end. Please send Fiefe tweets. Like I said,

1020
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,840
Speaker 1: I always wonder about that. I was wondering, like, you

1021
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 1: really have to have nothing else going on in your

1022
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:26,600
Speaker 1: life that you would actually care that much to go

1023
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 1: and do something. How would this offend you either. It's

1024
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: just it's a simple and actress thing, empowering women and

1025
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:35,759
Speaker 1: getting them together to celebrate something. People are weird, people

1026
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 1: are crazy. So I never I never blamed well, I

1027
00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:40,279
Speaker 1: do blame thoughts, but I mean, you know, you know

1028
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,480

Speaker 1: in Huntington Beach though that's not that's a different one.

1041
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:25,239
Speaker 1: That's a different Huntington Library. It's not the same. And

1042
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,319
Speaker 1: actually the name is like a double missnomer because it's

1043
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 1: the Huntington's Library. It's in San Marino, so it's not

1044
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,839
Speaker 1: in Huntington's. Is a bunch of lies. But and it's

1045
00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 1: really not a library either a library. I mean, it's

1046
00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: like a walking museum that it's really cool. Anyways, I

1047
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: went there. I was expecting a library, and uh, I

1048
00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:50,440
Speaker 1: got whatever it is we're going to check out, like

1049
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 1: red Badge of Courage or something. Uh No, anyways, it's

1050
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:59,880
Speaker 1: a copy of Fahrenheit fortow Man. By the way, they

1051
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 1: do have an exhibit there for a science fiction writer

1052
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,479
Speaker 1: by the name of Octavia butler Um, And I gotta

1053
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 1: be honest, I wasn't totally I had heard the name

1054
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:10,399
Speaker 1: of not that familiar with her work, but She's won

1055
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:14,200
Speaker 1: so many awards in the science fiction uh industry, and

1056
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 1: and and this is the thing. Science fiction is an

1057
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: art dominated by male writers. This all ties in with

1058
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,760
Speaker 1: what Alex saying, but uh, it's dominated by male writers.

1059
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 1: And not only that, is dominated by Caucasian male writers.

1060
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:32,200
Speaker 1: This is an African American woman who was a best

1061
00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 1: selling author in a genre dominated by you know, Caucasian

1062
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:41,359
Speaker 1: male So, um, this is crap. Where's the Caucasian I'm

1063
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,680
Speaker 1: gonna get mad online and write a think they've got

1064
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:47,480
Speaker 1: They've got this exhibit and uh, it's got some of

1065
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:50,400
Speaker 1: you know, some samples of her work. But this is

1066
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: what really struck out to me. On the back of

1067
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 1: her spiral notebook. Okay, she was down on herself, and

1068
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 1: this is early in her career, so she would write

1069
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:04,239
Speaker 1: inspirational things to herself. And on the back of this,

1070
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,800
Speaker 1: on the back of this spiral bound notebook that she

1071
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:11,760
Speaker 1: wrote her notes in, she wrote herself these inspirational lines,

1072
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,560
Speaker 1: I shall be a best selling writer after imago. Each

1073
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:17,799
Speaker 1: of my books will be on the best seller's list

1074
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 1: of the l A Times and New York Times, Uh,

1075
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 1: in the Washington Post, et cetera. My novels will go

1076
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 1: in onto the above list, whether publishers push them hard

1077
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 1: or not. And she underlined that whether I'm paid a

1078
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 1: high advance fee or not, whether I win another award

1079
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 1: or not, this is my life. I write best selling novels.

1080
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:45,960
Speaker 1: And and to me, it's so inspirational seeing that stuff,

1081
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 1: because you could tell this is a moment in her

1082
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: life where she was down on herself and she's extremely talented,

1083
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 1: and she also understands the climate in which she writes in,

1084
00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:02,239
Speaker 1: which is the science fiction industry, which again doesn't see

1085
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:05,640
Speaker 1: a lot of of of folks like her in this industry.

1086
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:09,279
Speaker 1: So I don't know, man, I'll tweet out the link

1087
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:11,320
Speaker 1: because you can see, you know, the notes that that

1088
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 1: she wrote for herself. She also wrote a bunch of

00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:23,800
Speaker 1: I think like nineteen like you know, nineteen eighty or

1093
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:27,839
Speaker 1: something in nineteen seventy five or something. Right, Um, she wrote, Uh,

1100
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 1: inspirational goals that she had set for herself. But man,

Speaker 1: close us out. I am going to dap absolutely nothing

1108
00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:15,399
Speaker 1: because everything sucks. You're talking about you. You usually come

1109
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 1: in with five or seven or ten different things. Everything

1110
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 1: sucks because Mike Trout. It's like I feel like, this

1111
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:28,600
Speaker 1: is how long is he for? It's long enough. I's

1112
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 1: gonna miss he supposed to miss six day weeks. That's

1113
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,560
Speaker 1: a long time. That is a long time. That's pretty

1114
00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:37,600
Speaker 1: much this season. I mean, it's Trout, so he'll probably

1115
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 1: be back in two. But for most mortals like this

1116
00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,560
Speaker 1: is and you know what I look, so I just

1117
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: hate everything now, like nothing's fun and it's although and

1118
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 1: there's so many good things happening to me baseball wise,

1119
00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:54,719
Speaker 1: because I just realized today or excuse me, yesterday, the

1120
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,320
Speaker 1: Dodgers are back in first place? Is it because the

1121
00:56:56,320 --> 00:57:00,120
Speaker 1: Dodgers are in first place? I literally, I don't. I

1122
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 1: know a lot of I don't know a lot of

1123
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,040
Speaker 1: Angel fans hate the Dodgers. I'm like, I'm indifferent to

1124
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:07,200
Speaker 1: them there, I don't go to their stadium. We don't know.

1125
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,000
Speaker 1: Let's start out how I feel about the Angels, Like

1126
00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 1: I don't hate them. I'm just kind of indifferent, like

1127
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:15,040
Speaker 1: until I started different conferences, like it doesn't matter. Like

1128
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:16,640
Speaker 1: it's like they run up on each other a few

1129
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 1: times a year, and I worked for the Dodgers and

1130
00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:23,480
Speaker 1: I was still indifferent to that. I but no, speaking

1131
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:27,800
Speaker 1: of Dodgers, the Corona High Panthers will be a Dodger

1132
00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 1: stadium on Friday night, playing for the c i F title,

1133
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 1: going up against we beat uh Phil Nevin's alma mater,

1134
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 1: El Dorado. Now we're going up against Lindsay Soto's alma mater,

1135
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 1: the Bull Toro. So she hasn't been around. I haven't

1136
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: seen her on Total Access, so I don't know. I

1137
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 1: believe she is probably preparing to have another child. I

1138
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,560
Speaker 1: didn't know. She never told me personally, and I was

1139
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 1: never gonna ask never, never, never asked that question. Al Right,

1140
00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 1: So there you go. Oh and I also went to

1146
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 1: as a Division one program, they have more World Series

1147
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:25,439
Speaker 1: titles than us, including a College World Series title led

1148
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,680
Speaker 1: by market since at the expense of us over them. Understand,
