I mean, 234 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: you look at fourteenth among running backs in a in 235 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: a season where running backs was pretty much devalued. Great 236 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: value there, Jeremy Macklin were the best wide receivers in 237 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: the game. Emmanuel Sanders though truly really came out of 238 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: nowhere uh and scored a boatload of points. But the 239 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: winner fabs who is it? They're gonna be one? I 240 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: have that right here, my friends, the winner is Emmanuel 241 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: sin good stuff. Emmanuel Sanders is a proof that when 242 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: a wide receiver goes to Denver and Mannings throwing them 243 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: the football, good things happened. That is, value can really rise. 244 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: Let's just say that Emmanuel Sanders was one of the 245 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: most consistent wide receivers in fantasy football as well, had 246 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: a boatload of hunting yard games and earlier in the 247 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: year he wasn't scoring a lot of touchdowns, but he 248 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: made up for that mid season too. Now he was fantastic. 249 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: And plus you thought when Wes Welker came back his 250 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: value would drop it it really didn't. Emmanuel Sanders has, 251 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, been a consistent producer there for Denver. 252 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: All right, fabs, let's flip it forward now and talk 253 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: about some of your top sleeper picks. For I know 254 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: there's a quarterback you've got your eye, no question about it. 255 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: When you are looking at sleepers. A lot of the 256 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: reason why these guys are gonna come up because they 257 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: played well late the previous season and Teddy Bridgewater has 258 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: looked really good lately. Uh. And you talk about this 259 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: kid who's had fifteen plus Fantasy points in each of 260 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: his US four or five games and by the way, 261 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: good for this week against the Chicago Bears. Yes, he 262 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: is someone that's going to be drafted late next year 263 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: as a QB two who could end up being a 264 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: pretty nice matchup based starter. And uh, he'll have another 265 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: year under North Turner's total legion. That's always a good thing. 266 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: Always quarterback. Yes, absolutely, how about Carlos Hide. I'm expecting 267 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: Frank Gordon no longer play for the Niners next year, 268 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: which means Carlos Hide comes in and becomes the featured back. 269 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: And even if they do bring back or maybe it's 270 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: in a backup role, but Carlos Hide when he did play, 271 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: showed some flashes of potential as a rookie. And again 272 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: the Niners, well they're gonna want to run the football. 273 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: They threw it this year and well they didn't do 274 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: so well. So Carlos Hide is kind of a big 275 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: time sleeper potential. And the seven Colin Kaepernick fans were 276 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: having you right now, All right, let's take a look 277 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: at your Michael Fabiano's top ten sleepers for fifteen. You 278 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: mentioned there right at the top there, Teddy Bridgewater, Carlos Hide. 279 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: That's fine, Littavius Murray. So intrigued by this unknown product, 280 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: Lottavius Murray because he's big and he's fast. When you 281 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: look at the rest of the the list there, Jerick 282 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: McKinnon a great Canada as well. Before he hit the 283 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: I R was getting a bulk of the carriages didn't 284 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: get touchdowns. And watch out for Dante Moncreef next year. 285 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: Remember Reggie Wayne Great another year older. Hakim Knicks is 286 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: a free agent. He could be a stud catching passes 287 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: from Andrew Lock. So there you go.

And then off the field, 337 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 1: he's just you know, a great guy. Officer the field. 338 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: You know he does. He's real big with charity and 339 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: giving back to people with military backgrounds because he comes 340 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: from a military background. And uh, you know, he's just 341 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: a great guy. All right. There you go. Hey, you 342 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 1: were college teammates with Johnny Manziel. What do you think 343 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: of all the attention that he's received. Do you think 344 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 1: it's fair? Not fair? All the positive and the negative? 345 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: What do you think about all the attention he's gotten. 346 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: He's been getting that, uh since he stepped on the field, 347 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: uh in twelve you know, Um, he gets a lot 348 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: of bad criticism, but uh, I think he'll proves some 349 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: people wrong next year. Do you think it's fair the 350 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: criticism that he's received. I mean, they put a lot 351 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: on his plate already. You know, one of the most 352 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: exciting cost football players ever and uh you know people 353 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: you know talk about about him. So I'm talking good. Uh, 354 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: I don't think it's fair, all right. So you're a 355 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: touchdown machine yourself. Man, you got eleven of them already. 356 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: But here's the thing that I know, you're not big 357 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: on celebrations like some of your other rookie classmates. I 358 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: look at Jeremy Hill, I look at Odell Beckham Jr. 359 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: They got the sch money and the and the whip, 360 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: but you don't got one of those. What's the deal there, 361 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm too big to do that. I'm small. Guys can 362 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: do it. I think if you're over six three you 363 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: don't apposed to dance or anything like that. But uh, 364 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: I like the dances those guys have been doing. Hey listen, 365 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: I do notice, though, that your touchdown celebration is a 366 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: little bit of an homage to another very tall receiver 367 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: and Randy Moss talk about why you kind of pay 368 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: your respects there. He's my favorite receiver. You know. He 369 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: played with a lot of swag. You know, he don't 370 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: he didn't dance and he did something simple And uh, 371 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: I just I did that in college and I knew 372 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: him most of the time in the league. Hey, listen, 373 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: you need seven touchdowns on Sunday to break your hero, 374 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: Randy Moss's rookie touchdown record. You got this right? Yeah, 375 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: all right, there you go. Mike Evans, the incomparable. We're 376 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: gonna start glossing you the big machine, alright, Mike Evans. 377 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: They're part of the Duncaneers Tampa Bay. The outstanding rookie 378 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: Mike Evans joining us. All right for more. Now, let's 379 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: throw it over to Marcus and the guys. Time now 380 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: for player comparisons, presented by S. A. P. Marcus Grant 381 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: here with Elliott's akbar and Fabs and guys, we saw 382 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: some incredible rookie performances this past year and maybe looking ahead, 383 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: some guys who win some hardware next year. Who knows, 384 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: but we'll put some of the youngster's head to head. 385 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna debate who will be the better pick in fifteen, 386 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: So we will get started with a couple of receivers, 387 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: Mike Evans or Kelvin Benjamin Fabbs. This is a close 388 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: one because you know that at least one of these 389 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: rookie wide receivers are gonna have that sophomore slump, and 390 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,880 Speaker 1: Benjamin and Evans might be the two favorites here. I'm 391 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: gonna go with Mike Evans because I think that he 392 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: is a guy who is seeing more red zone targets 393 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: and touchdowns are golden fantasy football. And he also has 394 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 1: Vincent Jackson on the other side of the ball, so 395 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:12,479 Speaker 1: that means defenses can't put all their defensive attention on him. 396 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Kelvin Benjamin here. I think that he's 397 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,239 Speaker 1: most likely in the Panthers, most likely to pick up 398 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: another running back, probably in free agency perhaps or even 399 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 1: you know, through the draft, and then you look at 400 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: probably getting another wide receiving in there in the same 401 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: type of way that enhances a guy like Kelvin Benjamin 402 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: and his ability to go out there and continue to produce. 403 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: I think Kelvin Benjamin in his sophomore year is going 404 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: to be outstanding, and you know, to meet Cam Newton 405 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: is going to grow as a quarterback as well. I 406 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: just have one word for you. What's the name? Excuse me? 407 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: Two words? Okay, yep, Mike Williams. Which one? But that's 408 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: going to be Mike Williams. That's all I'm gonna say. 409 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin is a guy that I would rather have. 410 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: I don't trust Mike Evans or the Tampa Bay offense. 411 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: And Calvin Benjamin man, even when he's covered, he's open, 412 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: you can just throw it up to him. You know. 413 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: The one game that did it for me for Calvin 414 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: Benjamin was that game against the Seattle Seahawks and how 415 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: he got so physical as a big guy against those 416 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: guys that to me, that was it, no no doubt. 417 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: So we will move on down to the next one. 418 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: Start with you Odell Beckham or a guy know you 419 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: liked all year long, Jeremy Hill. I love both of 420 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: these guys, and it's very hard for me to even 421 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: make a choice here, but I'm gonna Jeff go with 422 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill. I'm gonna go with the run game here 423 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 1: because that run game is just crucial. The way Jeremy 424 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: Hill just came onto the scene because out standing. I 425 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: don't think you would go bad with Odell Beckham Jr. 426 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 1: But when you look at the physical play and Hugh 427 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: Jackson and how he's gonna utilize Jeremy Hill big time 428 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: fun time. There you go. You know I'm gonna agree 429 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: with ok bar, but I think it's very feasible that 430 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: these two guys could literally go back to back in 431 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: a draft like literally fifteen and sixteen or seventeen and 432 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,959 Speaker 1: eighteen or wherever. I like Jeremy Hill a little bit better. 433 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: I think Jeoe Bernard at this point is it glorified 434 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: Darren Sprawls, But Victor Cruz is coming back went to 435 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: the Giants, and I want the running back, though I'm 436 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: always gonna want the running well typically I do too, 437 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 1: but he is potentially going to be in a committee 438 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: next year. We'll see what happens. He was so good 439 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: this year, though, I think you have to put him 440 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: into that closer a featured role in Cincinnati then Geo. 441 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: But Ohdell Beckham Jr. Was just gangbusters this year. He 442 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: was so good in fact, that he's been the best 443 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 1: wide receiver in fantasy football over the last five There's 444 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: a chance that the way the hype is, he's not 445 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: gonna be around by the time he's gonna pick before. Yeah, 446 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: but the reason I think that they'll go right back 447 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,479 Speaker 1: to back is because people panic about running backs when 448 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: they get in the second round a lot this year. Alright, 449 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: last one and we go. We will go with you, 450 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: Starry with you, Elliott, Sammy Watsons, Trey Mason. Well, this 451 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,439 Speaker 1: is tough because of Buffalo Bill's quarterback situation. A lot 452 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: of people still don't agree with him getting Kyle Orton. 453 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: I mean, what did it really deliver for them? Another 454 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 1: playoff list campaign. Meanwhile, he stunted the growth of E. J. Manuel. Therefore, 455 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 1: I would go Trey Mason. I like Trey Mason, what 456 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: he did this year. We saw what happened was Zach Stacy. 457 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: Trey Mason is a little bit different football player than 458 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: Zack Stacey. Once again, I know I'm falling on this 459 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: called low hanging fruit. He's a running back. I want 460 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: my running back. I want my running back to and 461 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 1: I don't know what that quarterback situation like he kind 462 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: of alluded to, what's that situation is gonna be in 463 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: Buffalo with Sammy Watkins, so he could go through that 464 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: up and down curve. As we've seen before with that transition, 465 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: Trey Mason, he's the guy getting the rock. He's the 466 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 1: guy that's shown to be the best running back there. 467 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: I think Mason is probably gonna go in draft before 468 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: Watkins because of that need for running backs in the 469 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 1: first four or five rounds. But I wouldn't be surprised 470 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: to Sammy Watkins has a better season. He to me, 471 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: is one of the most athletic rookie wide receivers in 472 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: the last ten years. I mean, he's been that good. 473 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: The problem is they don't have anyone else on the 474 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: other side of the field, and we have a quarterback situation. 475 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: Because we're talking about Sammy Watkins. This is where I 476 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 1: make my obligatory and Robert Wood's reference and yeah, I 477 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: was comparison presented by s A.

Some 602 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: players still find a way to bring great shame to 603 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: their fantasy owners. Where's Dave Damasha? You took a chance 604 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: on these players and for unknown reasons, they let you 605 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: down week after week after week. So here are the 606 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: nominees teen Fantasy Bust of the Year Core Darryl Patterson 607 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 1: or Darrell Tried to make a one handed, left handed 608 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: catch and throw on first Town ponders bar always incomplete. 609 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 1: We're going to head up the middle of the rounds. 610 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: It will be an end a round in poor Darrell 611 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: Patterson right to left and cooled. Absolutely nobody Zach Stacy 612 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: to give us to Zack up the middle, tough sledding, 613 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: not much there, but puts his head down to give 614 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: the sac Stacy the middle. He lost the football. It's 615 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:09,800 Speaker 1: on the gravity buckles. The offense has to get the 616 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: ball moving here, and I think they gotta start doing 617 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: it on the ground. Doug Martin one back said, get 618 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,720 Speaker 1: the ball to Doug Martin. Martin was gonna be bottled 619 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: up out of the I form makes your hand off 620 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: to Barton running too, is right, and he'll get a 621 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: yard matchually. But now I'm gonna give head in the 622 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: back field before the guy could get moving and brought 623 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: down or a loss. Well there you go, Marcus, And 624 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: if you drafted any of these guys, you probably didn't 625 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: make it to your Fantasy Championship. I know that I 626 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: drafted every one of these guys in different leagues because 627 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: I'm in Lennon. Uh not anymore though, because the season 628 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 1: has all but over. Uh, Cornarol Patterson, Zack Stacy, and 629 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: Doug Martin certainly disappointed everyone who took them. So the 630 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:55,479 Speaker 1: winner and we're using that term advisedly for Fantasy Bust 631 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: of the Year is voted on by you, the fans 632 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: at NFL dot Com. It goes to, yeah, not a 633 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:06,959 Speaker 1: surprise here, Corderol Patterson. Definitely not a surprise. And after 634 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: he had that big game in Week one, big game, 635 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: big play, he had one big run. But after that, 636 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 1: everyone's all, man, we were all right about Cardarol, he's 637 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: gonna have that. Did you know that? He went on 638 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 1: to score sixty Fantasy points all year six zero like 639 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,879 Speaker 1: Ben Ruthlisberger had almost that minion one game he had 640 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: he was seventy six the moong wide receivers and Fantasy 641 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: points seventy six, seventy five. Didn't know there were seventy 642 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: receivers in the league. But Corderol Patterson clearly, and I 643 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: was right on his bandwagon, and uh, the wheels we 644 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: were all on that. Maybe it's because it was too 645 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: heavy until the wheels fell off the band wagon. It 646 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: could maybe the hype just got too heavy for him. 647 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: So Cordarol Patterson for sinking tons of fantasy seasons early on. 648 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: Congratulations for more.

Peyton Manning, you know, 657 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: is a guy that I think is gonna be a 658 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: potential best bus for You know, these last five weeks 659 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: they haven't been the best for Peyton Manning. We've really 660 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: seen the decline and I think it has a lot 661 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: to do with age. And you know, it's hard to 662 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 1: believe because he has been great, especially earlier in the 663 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: season last year. Who would forget we just thought that 664 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: that was going to carry over. I think it stops 665 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: in two five weeks ago. Uh, this is it. If 666 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: you date Peyton Manning, that's a huge risk, not even 667 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: I believe you know, Adam Rank, how about DeMarco Murray. Yeah, 668 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: he was somebody that I would be a little bit 669 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 1: concerned about next season because he played in a contract 670 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 1: year and performed admirably. The biggest concern about him was 671 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: playing a full six team game schedule because he hadn't 672 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: done it before in his career. But suddenly when he's 673 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: trying to get the big bucks once again, of course 674 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: he's gonna be he's got a broken hand. Of course 675 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 1: he's gonna be out in the field. He's de Marca Murray. 676 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, he's Superman. So he did go 677 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: out there, he put formed very well. Somebody's gonna give 678 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: him a hefty paycheck, and somebody's gonna draft him in 679 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: your first round next year, and that guy will probably 680 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: be disappointed. The guy I'm gonna pick is Brandon Marshall. There. 681 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 1: You know what the guy is again. You mentioned father time, 682 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: Mark bar You know he's getting up there in age. 683 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: We don't know the status of Jake Color, what his 684 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: situation will be like. You know, Alshon Jeffrey's really just 685 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: emerged for Chicago as basically they're kind of one of 686 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: their go to guy. Yep, and Douglas is there too. 687 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: And Martella Spende has played really well. Matt Forte, he'll 688 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 1: be coming up to you know, there's a lot of 689 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: options in that in that offense, you know. And I 690 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: think you gotta also wonder about his motivation as well. 691 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 1: You know, clearly a lot of what he's doing right now, 692 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: he's getting all that showtime money. You know, you know 693 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: what it's like being on two different networks. All right, 694 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: coming up, a lot of quitters put up big time points, 695 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: but there could be only one Fantasy m VP.

Gentlemen, 709 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: you saw the less let's talk about who should be uh. 710 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,800 Speaker 1: This year's Fantasy MVP fabs are gonna start with you, 711 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: my friends. I was torn because I love de Marco Murray. 712 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,239 Speaker 1: He's a cowboy and he was the one the best 713 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: running backs in Fantasy. But I've gotta go with Levian Bell. 714 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: Levian Bell was the man down the stretch. This is 715 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 1: a guy who had three straight games with two hundred 716 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: plus scrimmage yards uh and during the Fantasy playoffs he 717 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: was phenomenal. Whether it was the matchup was poor or not, 718 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: it didn't matter. He put up huge numbers. And in fact, 719 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: I have Levian Bell now listed as the number one pick. 720 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: He has to be with over two thousand of scrimmage yards. 721 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: I mean what he did in the passing game too 722 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 1: was phenomenal as well. And that was the thing that 723 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: was very impressive. And a lot of people are afraid 724 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 1: to say this, but I'm gonna go ahead and say this. 725 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: He reminds me a lot of Look Damian Tomlinson. I 726 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: mean the way he's played in the way he's i mean, 727 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: just helps his team. I think he should be the 728 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 1: number one overall pick over all of the other big 729 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: name guys out there. By the way, I saw a 730 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,439 Speaker 1: Danny in the hallway and said, hey, you know, Ak 731 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: and I are comparing Levian Bell to you, and he said, hey, 732 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: as soon as he can throw a touchdown pass, all right, 733 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 1: so listen, oh deal. Becom Jr. Is definitely another guy 734 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: who is an m VP Canada, especially because people picked 735 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: him up off the waiver wire Elliott exactly. And this 736 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: is why he would be my nominee. I mean, how 737 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 1: many people were out there in fantasy You're hanging out 738 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,080 Speaker 1: at two and three are one in four? You're thinking 739 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 1: this isn't the year for me because you're week at 740 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: wide receiver every week you're trying to figure out who 741 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,839 Speaker 1: de flets and you picked up Odell Beckham Jr. Still, 742 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 1: you probably went all the way through. Man, I'd love 743 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,799 Speaker 1: to see the data on how many teams won their 744 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: leagues because they picked up this guy. And to me, 745 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: that's what the most valuable player is. Who made the difference. 746 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: You had to invest a heavy draft pick in Levyan Bell, 747 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: not in this guy. You know, I'm I'm not afraid 748 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 1: to say this. He's the greatest receiver of all time. 749 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I thought this was ridiculous hyperbolie my mistake, 750 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: but yes he did. He was a difference maker. As 751 00:42:56,440 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 1: Elliott says, he was great. Tomorrow the he's like, we're done. 752 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck obviously on there. But to Marco Murray also 753 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,240 Speaker 1: another guy at the running back position who was basically 754 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 1: a stud from the from the word go. And that 755 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: is the reason I think he's the Fantasy player of 756 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: the year because sure, let me on bell. He was nice, 757 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: but at the beginning of the year he was splitting 758 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: time with a Garrett Blunt. We had to wait till 759 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:23,399 Speaker 1: week five for Odell Beckham to even get on the field, 760 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 1: and it wasn't until about week eight until he started 761 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 1: putting up those video game numbers. Meanwhile, every week to 762 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: start the season, you could just lock in de Marco 763 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: Murray for a hundred yards. He was just gonzo from 764 00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: the start of the year. And then in week sixteen 765 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 1: you're playing your championships and everybody's what about de Marco 766 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: Murray's hand? He would have got fifty eight the touchdown well, 767 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck was putting up playing three Fantasy for like, 768 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: so from start to finish, the Marco Murray was there 769 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 1: unless he traded him after week one, Well then there's Marcus. 770 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 1: I disagree, you know. I will say this though, Andrew Luck. 771 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 1: I had Andrew Luck penciled in there as Fantasy m 772 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 1: v P early on. But then you can't go out 773 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 1: like the way you did. And when the Fantasy m 774 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: v P, that's right, the postseason shouldn't matter, just like 775 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: just like it's like when they're morning for regular m 776 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 1: VP hashtag payton all right.
