Speaker 1: your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy football advice, speculation,

4
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 1: and whatever stupid stuff they decided to drop into the show. Now,

5
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: here's your host, Paul. Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly. I

6
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: am Paul Charchy in my co host as usual Brian Johnson. Today, Um,

7
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: springtime in Minnesota. Ain't all that it's time in springtime yet,

8
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: It's it's a good time to be alive. It's free

9
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: agency season at this time. Last week we record on Fridays,

10
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: we were talking about some of the big moves we

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: anticipated allmost all the big ease are done. Most of

12
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:52,840
Speaker 1: the main dust set. That's right, some big Henny Gala days,

13
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 1: the big maybe the biggest prize of all of all

14
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: of the off season. And he's unsigned. I suspect that

15
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: this means that his representation and Kenny Golladay, I thought

16
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 1: they were gonna be worth a lot more than what

17
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: they've actually gotten. It offers. Yeah, we we alluded to

18
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: this last week where he he wants the big, big money,

19
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: which he deserves if he has proven to have stayed

20
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: on the field a little longer throughout the duration of

21
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 1: his career thus far, I would say, but uh, as

22
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: of the time of this taping, it's the Giants and

23
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: the Bengals, But now the Ravens are in the in

24
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: the Knicks for because the Ravens lost out on Juju

25
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: Smith shoes about it a few minutes. So there's so

26
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: many free agent moves, and we like to keep these

27
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 1: offseason podcasts around a half hour or less. So what

28
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: I want to do, Brian is focusing on quarterbacks and

29
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: wide receivers. This episode will hit running backs, tight ends,

30
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: and then just some other news like offensive lines that

31
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: got better, forty niners, and some other things that you know,

32
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: we want to touch on next week. But for now, quarterbacks,

33
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: wide receivers, I'm just gonna hit you with a bunch

34
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: of guys. Give me, you know, tell me a little

35
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: bit about whether you like the move, you think the

36
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: players more valuable, less valuable, what does that leave behind?

37
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: Stuff like that. Let's start with Ryan Fitzpatrick signing in Washington.

38
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: He gets a one year, ten million dollar deal and

39
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: he is currently the starter over Tyler Heinek. Speaking of

40
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: a guy we want to touch on multiple times, right,

41
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 1: Ryan fitz Patrick. Yeah, our guys stupid last week he

42
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: was retiring and we were The NFL is a better

43
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: place with Ryan Fitzpatrick in it. I love the landing

44
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: spot for Fitzpatrick for for Washington football team. And we'll

45
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: talk about a newly acquired wide receiver for them shortly.

46
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: But the wide receiver that's been there that everyone knows

47
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: is uh Matt's good buddy Terry McLaren. Uh gotta like

48
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: the prospects for for Terry McLaurin a lot better. I

49
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: gotta pull list that from my boy ian heart tits

50
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 1: from uh ff. Here's the number one wide receiver target

51
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 1: totals for Ryan Fitzpatrick in the eight years he played target.

52
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: These are again target targets, Okay, for the number one

53
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: receiver for Ryan Fitzpatrick when he had ten plus starts

54
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 1: and we're assuming Fitzpatrick is gonna start at least ten

55
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: games for Washington. And again, Taylor Heineke, he looked, he

56
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: looked kind of fun towards the end of last year.

57
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: It's not there. Get the football team almost beat the

58
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: Bucks in the playoffs behind Taylor Honekey. But back to

59
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,119
Speaker 1: the number one wide receivers for Fitzpatrick, when Fitzpatricks has

60
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: had ten plus starts starting with t J. Houshman Zada

61
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: that was not Fitzpatrick's first team, but his first like

62
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: true number one wide receiver, but a hundred thirty seven

63
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: targets for him. Then Stevie Johnson three years in Buffalo

64
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: a hundred forty hundred forty one hundred thirty four targets,

65
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: And these are massive amounts. Those are solid numbers. Andre

66
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: Johnson for a year in Houston, a hundred and forty

67
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: six targets. Then Brandon marsh had a hundred and seventy

68
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: three targets, a hundred and twenty eight with Fitzpatrick's starting

69
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: ten plus games, and DeVante Parker drew eight targets essentially

70
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: with Fitzpatrick. So you get Terry McClure and a hundred

71
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 1: twenty five hundred thirty five hundred forty five targets. That

72
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: stock is rising time, and and you get Fitzpatrick's willingness

73
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: to drive the ball downfield, something McLaren's never had. So

74
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: uh for the whole offense, but really, well I don't

75
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: I don't know about the whole offense. Somewhere Logan Thomas

76
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: who we were pimping a few weeks ago. If it's

77
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: Patrick Real hasn't supported a tight end as much as

78
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: we would have liked. He seems a little more wide

79
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: receiver friendly. So I might ding a Logan Logan Thomas

80
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: a little bit here, but overall an exciting move. Yeah,

81
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: one way or another, it looks like Tyrod Taylor maybe

82
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: your opening day starter for Houston, no matter if Deshaun

83
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: Watson's traded or not. As we are, and you have

84
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: to do this up to the minute as we're recording.

85
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: The official number of allegations of sexual assault against Deshaun

86
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: Watson I believe is at seven right now. It's rumored

87
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,840
Speaker 1: to go to nine before long. And even if he

88
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: stays in Houston, there may be a real chance that

89
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: he's not allowed to play for some or all of

90
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: this next season, and not that he doesn't really want

91
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: to play for Houston either, allegations aside. So yeah, thank you.

92
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 1: Rod Taylor is now draftable if you're doing Best Ball

93
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: drafts right now or even any kind of is he

94
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: is he as a last pick? I mean, if you're

95
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: gonna get a starting I mean, am I streaming in

96
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: Week one already? Brian. I think we are. We are

97
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: at least when it comes to the Texans. But there

98
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 1: we're not going to talk about the quote unquote weapons

99
00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 1: they've been adding with the Dante Moncreef's in the Yeah

100
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 1: to Rod Taylor going away. Andy Dalton signs for ten

101
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: million dollars one year deal for the Bears. Bears fans

102
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 1: are apoplectic at this point, and rightfully so. It's such

103
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: a dumb move. They already have Andy Dalton on roster

104
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: in Nick Foles. And I'm not just saying that because

105
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: it's moderately talented white quarterback. It's just, you know, you've

106
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: got a middling, you know, slightly above or slightly below

107
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: average quarterback already there, So why are you taking ten

108
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: million dollars out of your coffers for another guy other

109
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,119
Speaker 1: than I just you know, I feel for your Bears.

110
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 1: If I'm looking for a silver lining here, it is

111
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 1: really for Alan Robinson, the best quarterback he's ever played

112
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: coming into town. So that's what we got going for us. Yeah,

113
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: Bears fans, you're you're likely tanking this year, so we're

114
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 1: talking reality football. Yeah, you know, for the Bear for

115
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: the Bears and Alan Robins who is probably the only

116
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: receiver we care about for the Bears at this point.

117
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: I think it's a slight step up from what he

118
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: had last year, but really, Mitch Drabinski was it was

119
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: probably a better fantasy producer at least than either Dalton

120
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: or Um than Nick Foles. So it's I want to

121
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: get behind. I want to see I want to see

122
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson in a great offense and just see see

123
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: what happens. But it's not. It's not gonna happen at

124
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: this point. Let's go over to Jamis Winston, who resigns

125
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: with the Saints one year, up to twelve million dollars

126
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: depending on how much he plays. John Payton says it'll

127
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: be a competition to start the season. They're paying both

128
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: now at least this year, Winston and Taysom Hill, not

129
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: necessarily starter money or backup money. They don't even know

130
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: what they're doing. So yeah, it's surely a competition going

131
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: into training camp. But for fantasy purposes, we want to

132
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: see Winston win this job. Taysom Hill was like the

133
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: most selfish fantasy player in the history of fantasy football,

134
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: almost you know, he like he benefits no one but himself.

135
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 1: He detracts from all his other teammates value. So we're

136
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: all pulling for Winston. That's all I have to say.

137
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: The worry is they're gonna platoon them all year, right right,

138
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: So it'll be Winston until you get down inside the ten,

139
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: and then they are frequently flipping Taysom Hill in. Who

140
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: might run it in? He maybe you'll pass it, maybe

141
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: hands off, and Winston is just gonna get daggered on

142
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: fantasy value if the stuff up close especially is going

143
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: to be Taysom Hills. Yeah, that's ah. The red flags

144
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 1: are out there. We know that Tayson Hill is gonna

145
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: muck up the water as no matter who the starting quarterback.

146
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: But I would like to think that Winston can at

147
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: least be the between the twenties guy. But ugly situations.

148
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: It is ugly now for Michael Thomas in particular. I

149
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: I you know, obviously it's a step down from Drew Brees.

150
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: But Winston will press the field, will press down field more.

151
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 1: Now that's not Michael tom Mrs sweet spot. You know Thomas,

152
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,839
Speaker 1: You know we always think of her. I do. I

153
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: always think of was catching the ball eight ten, twelve

154
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: yards down field and moving chains and stuff. But I

155
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: like the notion that Winston's yolo downs field passing could

156
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: create some bigger plays for Michael Thomas. Then Drew brees

157
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: Is flagging arm had been able to do over the

158
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: past couple of years. Yeah, and we touched on that

159
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: that Thomas was undervalued going into diynasty and redraft formats

160
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago because he put up numbers

161
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: with Taysom Hill. He was like the one guy that

162
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: actually put up numbers when he came back when he

163
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: was somewhat healthy enough to play late in the season

164
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: last year. So, yeah, Thomas remains undervalued regardless of Winston

165
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: or Hill. I think it's kind of a it would

166
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: be a lateral move if their subbing those guys as

167
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: a lateral moment. Still an ugly scenario. Maybe the best

168
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: signing in the last quarterback I want to touch on

169
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: the best I think most sensible signing was Mitch Robisky

170
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: to the Bills. You know his mobile, he makes him

171
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: a perfect fit behind Josh Allen. You can still you

172
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: can still run that same offense. You don't have to

173
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: change the offense because of the quarterback you've got. You've

174
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: got designed rollouts which can do all that, even designed runs,

175
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: he can do that. I I thought this was a

176
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: really good fit. And you look at how well they

177
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: got Josh Allen the year over your progression from Josh

178
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: Allen staggering maybe the best ever last year any quarterback

179
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 1: anytime history of the game. Considering where he was at

180
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: the end of last year to where he got through

181
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 1: this year, he's second and m v P voting. I

182
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: love Mitch Drobiski getting better and smarter on the bench

183
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: and feel if they need him to fill in that

184
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: offense doesn't necessarily take a big step back. No, and

185
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 1: if True Whisky has to come and then hopefully our

186
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: boys Zack Moss will just get a few more carries

187
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: to take that. There's no better like Warrio to Mario

188
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 1: comparison than Trubisky to Josh Allen. He is like the

189
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: hitting me of like the white version of your starting

190
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: quarterback coming in but you don't know because you're not

191
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: a big enough video game nerdis Warrios evil. He's the bat,

192
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: He's the bad Mario. But True Whisky is evil too.

193
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 1: At the very end of the day, there's much of

194
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: his boyish, good looking grin. Yeah does for us he's

195
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: very evil, especially still in Chicago. We couldn't go the

196
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: whole segment without the whole Mitch Trabisky saying discussion without

197
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: a little bit of sad from bon Sky right. Definitely

198
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: not oh, I think not um. When we come back

199
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: the wide receivers, the notable wide receiver signings, most of

200
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: them are locked up. There's are still a couple of

201
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: them out there. We'll talk about whether or not these

202
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: players get better or worse with their with their new spots,

203
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: and what they leave behind. And of these is the

204
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 1: departing team in a better spot without these guys who

205
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: can benefit all of that stuff coming up for segment

206
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: number two a Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back to Fantasy

207
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 1: fo aall weekly. Paul Charchi and Brian Johnson with you.

208
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: We just broke down the free agent quarterbacks. I didn't

209
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: bother with Jacobe Burst said, I don't think he counts now,

210
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: even though he might be better than the incumbent in Miami.

211
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: Not always, not always, not I know he's not. I'm

212
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: not god on two as much as most but and

213
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: to uh, and we're gonna talk about the Dolphins in

214
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 1: a minute here. In fact, let's save it, we'll talk

215
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: about we'll talk about the Dolphins in short order, and

216
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: we'll talk about two and if his value goes up,

217
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 1: I want to I want to start with Juju Smith

218
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 1: Schuster and probably resigning with the Steelers. It looked like

219
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: that was completely done. And if you believe the media reports,

220
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: he chose the Steelers over some other viable options and

221
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: who are offering him more money. So but why, I mean,

222
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 1: you know, I don't if I got a choice between

223
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 1: going to the Ravens and getting Lamar Jackson's arm going

224
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: versus you know what we saw in Ben Roethlisberger where

225
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: it just he's at the bitter end of his career,

226
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: and I it just you didn't you had the sense

227
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: that these you know, Juju and the Steelers new all

228
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: season that they were gonna end up separated. Yet here

229
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: they are. They didn't. I am a little disappointed because

230
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: I said he was gonna leave in free agency all year.

231
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: You're going back to this time last year, like this

232
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: is gonna be Jujus. It was a foregone conclusion when

233
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: they drafted Chase Claypool, like Juju's gone. And now I

234
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: was wrong, and I hate it when I'm wrong. So

235
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 1: Juju stays, What do you think this does for Ben Roethlisberger,

236
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: Chase Claypool, you know the rest of the receivers. I mean,

237
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: I was hoping to, you know, frankly, get him out

238
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 1: so that we could have more looks for the other receivers.

239
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 1: So I like better. Yeah, we're right back where we

240
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: started essentially, and we we we talked about Juju last week.

241
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: You said, expect him to be a free agent, and

242
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: he did come on strong and in the second half

243
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 1: of the year, going to the playoffs, he was or

244
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: you'll be the top wide receiver from a fantasy perspective.

245
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: So people were, you know, they were anticipating their their

246
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: stock prices going up on Claypool and Deonte Johnson offseason.

247
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: I did, now, but they're crashing a little bit. Back

248
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: to the support line. Now. It's a one year deal

249
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: for Juju, if I'm correct, and so you know it

250
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,839
Speaker 1: just you may have to wait one more year to

251
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: to get him to clear out of it. He thinks

252
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: that they've got it in place. From a reality perspective,

253
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: one more year of Roethlisberger, he thinks they can win.

254
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: There's we don't want to bashing of the Steelers too much.

255
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: But they still have awful run blocking and they have

256
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: no running backs. But for whatever reason, Juju is back.

257
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, if you sold higher high on Deonte Johnson

258
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: and Chase Claypool, good for you, because I think you're

259
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: gonna have to wait another year because Juju is gonna

260
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: at least. Let's talk about the Bills and some comings

261
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: and goings from the Bills. They decide not to bring

262
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: back John Brown and he goes to the Raiders. They

263
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: bring in Emmanuel Sanders to the Bills, and you know,

264
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: for Sanders, he's gonna need to find playing time around

265
00:14:56,280 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: Diggs and Beasley and Gabriel Davis, and that's a crowded group.

266
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: I think he'll he'll be on the field enough that

267
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: he may just sort of subtract from those guys, But

268
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna be on the field and

269
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: enough so that you're ever gonna feel comfortable starting Emmanuel Sanders. Now,

270
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: he's a rare kind of best ball wide receiver handcuff

271
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: where if you invest in Diggs in the wait first,

272
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: early second, I mean Diggs is automatically going to take

273
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty two hundred targets out of that offense. Beasley,

274
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: he got hurt towards the end of the year, but

275
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: when he's healthy, he was shocking league. Yeah, he's a

276
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: lock for ten twelve dollars a game. Gabriel Davis was

277
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: a rookie last year, got better every week it see him.

278
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: So Sanders has to be fourth in the pecking order

279
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: right now. So but yeah, he's just a deep league flyer,

280
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: late round flyer. And that's from a fantasy perspective. You know,

281
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: he will bring some veteran in a leadership to the group.

282
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: But honestly, they got Diggs already for some of that.

283
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: And yeah, they're just gonna run the ball even lists Buffalo.

284
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: So now the Raiders take John Brown. Dude, it's a

285
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: starter right now. I mean the the rate it's you know,

286
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: as they do the massive makeover of that offense, including

287
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: four new offensive lineman coming this year. Uh that let

288
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: Nelson Agilar go. Um Williams, he's gone, He's gone. I

289
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 1: mean John Brown is it? John Brown is a starting

290
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: receiver on this in the NFL now, and you know

291
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: he does have really good speed. Um, Derek Carr is

292
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: way better. I think that most people realize John Brown

293
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: to me, is a sneaky sleeper, like right now, like

294
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: he's a last pick of the draft kind of guy.

295
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: I think, I think he's gonna be a sneaky sleeper.

296
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 1: I'm with you. He's he's immediately starting on the outside

297
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: for the Raiders all right now, and he got off

298
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: to a great start last year. He's just always been

299
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 1: bothered by injury, and it used to be like his

300
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: his head more so than not. It wasn't, thankfully that

301
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: was in the case last year where's getting knocked out

302
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 1: with concussions. But I remember his times with the Arizona

303
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: that was one of the main reasons he missed so

304
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: much time. But yeah, his injury gave paved the way

305
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: for Gabriel Davis ascend in Baltimore last year or so.

306
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 1: But yeah, uh, Brown stays healthy, he's a viable wide receiver.

307
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 1: Three In most weeks, I would say Marvin Jones signs

308
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: a two year deal with the Jaguars, He's gonna catch passes,

309
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: presumably from Trevor Lawrence. I um, you know, Lawrence looks

310
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,360
Speaker 1: like you know, he is a very promising NFL prospect,

311
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: but most rookies take a while to acclimate. Joe Burrow didn't,

312
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: but most do. And if you know, I gotta believe

313
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 1: this puts Marvin Jones to me down into like wide

314
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: receiver five territory, wide receiver four territory. He's right in

315
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: that territory where he's gonna have a hundred yards two

316
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 1: touchdowns once every five games. It seems like Djhark of course,

317
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 1: still in Jacksonville. Lavish lt Clan Cole is gone, he's

318
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: in uh with the Jets, and D D. Westbrook out

319
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: on the he's a free agent now. He's not coming

320
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 1: back to Jacksonville. Anytime Jones will start, he will start,

321
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 1: and uh, but he's gonna be a tough guy to

322
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 1: pay his weekly production. He's gonna be a frustrate, as

323
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: he pretty much always has been the duration of his career.

324
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, a guy in best ball, though, who who

325
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: has gone and will continue to go under valued. One

326
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: would think the Jaguars are still going to be chasing

327
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: points mercilessly correct, Sorry, we'll be that way. John Ross

328
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: goes to the Giants for one year. He'll had some

329
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,159
Speaker 1: speed to that group, but really looked, really looked lost

330
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: for most of his time in Cincinnati. And I don't

331
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: know that he's much of an impact player here. Yeah,

332
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: did the Giants need more speed? I mean, Daniel Jones

333
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,439
Speaker 1: ran so fast last year over his own feet on

334
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 1: which would have been a nine of your touch. But yeah,

335
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 1: not not the wide receiver news they're they're looking for

336
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: in the East Rock. But yeah, John Ross, even in

337
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 1: in best ball, this moves the needle. Not for me

338
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 1: in terms of John Ross's fantasy either. Corey Davis goes

339
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: to the Jets. He got a big pay to I

340
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: think that Jets made a mistake here. He he gets

341
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 1: three years, thirty seven million dollars for Corey Davis. He

342
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: had the one nice season last year, and even then

343
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 1: it wasn't like awesome season. Off the top of my head,

344
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: I think it was in the neighborhood of a thousand

345
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 1: yards season. Um, he'll start with Mims and Crowder. Crowder

346
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: on the slot, Mims on the outside, Corey Davis on

347
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: the outside. You know, I don't who his quarterback is

348
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: is yet to be determined. Head scratching money that they

349
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: offered Davis considering will Fuller, even though it was one

350
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: year he signed for ten point six million dollars. I'd

351
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 1: rather have will Fuller starting on the outside for a year,

352
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,959
Speaker 1: if from rather than Corey Hips, They're not that neediate

353
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Denzel Mims is one of the most intriguing

354
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: up and coming wide receiver prospects in the league right now.

355
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 1: And they still got Jameson Crowder in the slides. So

356
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: I know Davis will play on the outside, but yeah,

357
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 1: I don't know he's that was exciting as Brashad Perriman

358
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: was last year, right, just a little young group, so yeah,

359
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 1: not I think his fantasy value takes a ding from

360
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,360
Speaker 1: where it was in Tennessee. So the type the Titans

361
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 1: lose in this off season, Corey Davis, Adam Humphries, John U, Johno,

362
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: A J. Brown could be looking at like a hundred

363
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: eighty targets. I mean A J. Brown. I'm serious. I

364
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: think he's gonna be my wide receiver one in my rankings.

365
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: I just he's sitting on potentially and insane season. Yeah,

366
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago we I extrapolated his production.

367
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 1: Essentially he was. He was heavily under targeted last year

368
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: and throughout his career. But yeah, if he gets that

369
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: kind of volume, he is easily in the wide receiver

370
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: one conversation. Yes, that's the overall wide receiver on of

371
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 1: course receptions. I mean, he's a wide receiver one top

372
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: twelve right now. But yeah, I'm with you. Patriots made

373
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: too bad they made. Patriots made three bad moves, at

374
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: least three this off this offseason signing John U. Johnu

375
00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: was brilliant and that would have paid off enormously for fantasy.

376
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: And that was following the Can resigning that we're very

377
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: h like the Can resigning at all, were like, okay,

378
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: now we're going somewhere. But then Henry and we'll talk.

379
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 1: We'll break down that tight end situation next week. But

380
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: they then they made two bad financial moves. Kendrick Boorne

381
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: with's a shocking three year, twenty two million dollar deal

382
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: and Nelson Aglar granted coming off a far better season

383
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: than most of us expected, but given just who he

384
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: is and what we what we've seen for its full career,

385
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: couple two years and sixteen million dollars for him, well,

386
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: you know, they tied up the thirty eight million dollars

387
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: between Kendrick Born and Nelson angel. I know it's not

388
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 1: essentially apples to apples, but the one year on a

389
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 1: r eighteen million. You could have had Will Fuller and

390
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 1: Juju and then he got to like you said, Kendrick Bourne,

391
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: And who's getting paid more than John Brown? Right? Born

392
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: had some flashes with right but they could have a

393
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: great where to put it. They could have had Will

394
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: Fuller and Juju Smith Schuster for less what I just

395
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 1: I say this all the time and p I get

396
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 1: nothing but crap on Twitter for this. General manager Bill

397
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: Belichick is constantly undermining head coach Bill Belichick. Just terrible

398
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 1: personnel decisions, drafting deals. And I know he's one of

399
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 1: billion super Bowls. It doesn't mean that he's the He

400
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that that he's doing himself and he favors

401
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: as general manager, he's over his head. It's it's it's

402
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: its own job. Never has a the one wide receiver

403
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 1: move that went well for the Patriots, and Belichick's whole

404
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 1: tenure was when they signed that was it. That is it? Yeah?

405
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: And I guess historically and now Kendrick Born and Nelson

406
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: Aghilar so in terms of their fantasy value, they're both

407
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: potentially starters. And I think Glars especially going to start here. Um,

408
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,239
Speaker 1: I can't. We don't know who's thronging the ball. But

409
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 1: if it's Cam Newton coming off a season with eight

410
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: touchdown passes, I can't. I can't like the fantasy value

411
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 1: for the one of these guys a lot. And like

412
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: you said, we'll talk tight ends more next week with

413
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry now John new Smith. You just you feel

414
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 1: like you just need warm bodies on the outside. And

415
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: that's what Agre and Kendrick Born are. But they paid,

416
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: They paid the flaming hot, supermodel bodies. More power to you, Bill,

417
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: so Nelson Aguilar leaves the Raiders. Tyrrell Williams leaves the

418
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: Raiders and he goes to Detroit where he is now

419
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: their number one wide receiver because they don't have anybody else.

420
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 1: It's a bad it's it's it's ugly in Detroit right now.

421
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: Is they jettison their number one, number two, and number

422
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: three wide receivers? Yeah, Darrell Williams certainly pertinent in the

423
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: fantasy world. You would have to think the Lions, who

424
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: have drafted plenty of receivers in this this millennium, Uh,

425
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: we'll draft one of these almost have to Tyroe Williams

426
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 1: needs to be back on your radar for sure. I

427
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: just don't know why. You know, what is their situation

428
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: that's so poisoned with Kenny Golladay that and there well

429
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 1: under the cap that they can't just resigned Kenny Golladay,

430
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: who they took all this time and care to mean.

431
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay was something of a project receiver. It you know,

432
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 1: he didn't walk on the field his baby tron. He

433
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,239
Speaker 1: had to earn and you know, gradual steps to get

434
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 1: up to baby tron level. Now you think you'd want

435
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: to keep him. He's young, he's in entering the prime

436
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 1: of his career and get the Lions are just letting

437
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 1: him walk. The same with Marvin Jones that we talked

438
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: about two right, they could have kept him at a

439
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: much cheaper discount, but that's the only thing for a

440
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: rebuilding team. Marvin Jones entering his whatever ninth season, I

441
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: don't know that he would have made as much sense.

442
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: I'm with you there, but I think even the fully

443
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: healthy Goliday is uh, there's too much saving that needs

444
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 1: to be done in Detroit. There build mode, but no

445
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: doubt it's gonna be a it's gonna be like the

446
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: Major League of training camps. When like to be like

447
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: I don't know half these guys are that are showing

448
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: up Detroit's training camp become August, but Curtis Samuel goes

449
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: to Washington, where he's reunited with Scott Turner and Ron

450
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: Rivera from his days as a Panther. He gets three years,

451
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: thirty five million dollars. You know, he's the ultimate jack

452
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: knife guy. He's um. You know, he's good for one

453
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: or two runs a game. He really I think developed

454
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: it nicely as a receiver. He is a he's just

455
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: he's kind of a special gadget player who isn't such

456
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: a gadget guy that he can't be on the field

457
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,959
Speaker 1: all the time. You know, like Cordell Patterson was kind

458
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 1: of a gadget guy. You couldn't use him every play.

459
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 1: You'd have to just like find like a spot every

460
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: third game where you could do something special with him.

461
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,239
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel can do that a lot with um. I

462
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: think he has a chance to have a lot of

463
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: impact on a Washington team that now has competent quarterback. Yeah,

464
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: with Carolina d J. Moore and Robby Anderson, who are

465
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: you know soaking up most of the targets. So Samuel

466
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: had to kind of settle for this gadget role with

467
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: targets mixed in. But now with Washington, he's he's the

468
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: number two. He's the number two. So he still got

469
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: all the gadget stuff in his bag. And what I

470
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 1: love about him teaming with Terry McLaurin as they both

471
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: went to the Ohio State universe and they used to

472
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 1: like daydream about playing together and so precious. It's a

473
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 1: it's a it's a fun offense in Washington again with

474
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 1: with our boys stop Beard at the Helm. So yeah,

475
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel a very very sexy name. Right now, his

476
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 1: his ADP has risen with the signing news, no doubt. Alright,

477
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: two more names left, um one does not matter much

478
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: that J J. Green trying to resurrect his career in

479
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 1: a one yell, one year deal with the Cardinals. He

480
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: needs to prove that he can still be an effective player.

481
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,479
Speaker 1: And even after you, even if he does prove it

482
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: here at his age, it's going to be hard to

483
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,439
Speaker 1: him to land another big deal after this, but I

484
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: suspect he will. Man, he just sort of lost in

485
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: the shuffle with a lot of good receivers there. I

486
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 1: just I don't know how much playing time a J.

487
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: Green's can have, and whether or not I trust him

488
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: to have any kind of reliable fantasy value. You're not

489
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: gonna be able to rely on him as a week

490
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: to week starter, but he's draftable in my mind. He's

491
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: He's gonna be like a guy to keep your eye

492
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: on in daily for sure, but just to see. He

493
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: had some good games last year, and of course in

494
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: Arizona he's a good game maybe two sixteen. I don't

495
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: know he'll be rejuvenated leaving since for sure, I don't know.

496
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not ready. I called him dust. He's

497
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 1: not fully dust yet, but there's a lot of dust

498
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: storms in Arizona stretching alright. Lastly, Will Fuller, this is

499
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: an exciting move um. By the way, you mentioned, I

500
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: don't think getting A J. Green out of Cincinnati and

501
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: John John Rosses out of Cincinnati as well as you

502
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier. Yeah, Tyler, boy, I mean the remaining receivers

503
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: I think are all going to get a bit of

504
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: an uptick in in in looks here, boyd Higgins is

505
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 1: the my my my sleep. As long as UH mentioned,

506
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: Golladay has a chance to sign with Since and then

507
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: they could also draft a wide receiver. But if they

508
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 1: don't go a big name with but Higgins is the guy.

509
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 1: Higgins has got upside, He's got everyone's eyes are on Higgins.

510
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: But I audentate though, just keep in my narratar. Will

511
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 1: Fuller gets a one year deal with the Dolphins. I

512
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: thought he would get a longer deal coming off a

513
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: good season. This PD thing might haunt him a little bit.

514
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: That might have been a contributing factor to him not

515
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 1: getting as much attention as we thought. He's gonna bring

516
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: downfield speed that Miami is lacking. You know, part of

517
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: what the complaint is with Tah was he just wasn't

518
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: driving the ball down field like Ryan Fitzpatrick was. Maybe

519
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 1: will Fuller helps unlock some of the downfield passing attempts

520
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: that you could get out of Tah. And we went

521
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 1: to the turns with Fuller just in the sense that

522
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: he's never really played a full season, and he was

523
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 1: on his way to playing a full season last year

524
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: and epic full season. But he got pops for the

525
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: P E D s And is that why he was

526
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: playing so well and staying healthy. So I'm kind of

527
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: right where we had he was in like the late

528
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: twenty wide receiver range, which I don't think this move

529
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 1: it's lateral at best from Houston DeVante Parker, I would

530
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: still view as the alpha wide receiver. Uh, there's a

531
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: big move down, don't you think from being the go

532
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: to receivers Watson led off and it's a big to

533
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: the number two receiver and a tool led off. You're right,

534
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: it's I downplayed a little bit. So I'm pretty much

535
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: off of Goladay even or I'm sorry. I Will Fuller,

536
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: even though I don't think he's a d P, will

537
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: budge a whole lot, but high twenties seems a little

538
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: high for me now that he's I think I think

539
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: it is too at the helm and I'm still not

540
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 1: convinced he can with stand a full season without some

541
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 1: e s. Yeah, we'll find out. That's gonna be part

542
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: of the concern, and I think I'm gonna be I'm

543
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: gonna let somebody else relive last year with Will Fuller,

544
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: it probably will not be me. Thank you for listening
