0:00:06.880 --> 0:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from I Heart Radio,

0:00:10.480 --> 0:00:14.920
<v Speaker 1>your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy football advice, speculation,

0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and whatever stupid stuff they decided to drop into the show. Now,

0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 1>here's your host, Paul. Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly. I

0:00:24.040 --> 0:00:30.520
<v Speaker 1>am Paul Charchy in my co host as usual Brian Johnson. Today, Um,

0:00:30.760 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 1>springtime in Minnesota. Ain't all that it's time in springtime yet,

0:00:34.000 --> 0:00:35.800
<v Speaker 1>It's it's a good time to be alive. It's free

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:40.680
<v Speaker 1>agency season at this time. Last week we record on Fridays,

0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:43.000
<v Speaker 1>we were talking about some of the big moves we

0:00:43.040 --> 0:00:47.800
<v Speaker 1>anticipated allmost all the big ease are done. Most of

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:52.840
<v Speaker 1>the main dust set. That's right, some big Henny Gala days,

0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:57.240
<v Speaker 1>the big maybe the biggest prize of all of all

0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 1>of the off season. And he's unsigned. I suspect that

0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:07.080
<v Speaker 1>this means that his representation and Kenny Golladay, I thought

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:10.039
<v Speaker 1>they were gonna be worth a lot more than what

0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:13.000
<v Speaker 1>they've actually gotten. It offers. Yeah, we we alluded to

0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:16.880
<v Speaker 1>this last week where he he wants the big, big money,

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:21.120
<v Speaker 1>which he deserves if he has proven to have stayed

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 1>on the field a little longer throughout the duration of

0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:28.320
<v Speaker 1>his career thus far, I would say, but uh, as

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:31.080
<v Speaker 1>of the time of this taping, it's the Giants and

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the Bengals, But now the Ravens are in the in

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.880
<v Speaker 1>the Knicks for because the Ravens lost out on Juju

0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Smith shoes about it a few minutes. So there's so

0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 1>many free agent moves, and we like to keep these

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:44.120
<v Speaker 1>offseason podcasts around a half hour or less. So what

0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I want to do, Brian is focusing on quarterbacks and

0:01:47.280 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers. This episode will hit running backs, tight ends,

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.640
<v Speaker 1>and then just some other news like offensive lines that

0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:57.000
<v Speaker 1>got better, forty niners, and some other things that you know,

0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:02.640
<v Speaker 1>we want to touch on next week. But for now, quarterbacks,

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:04.760
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers, I'm just gonna hit you with a bunch

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:06.680
<v Speaker 1>of guys. Give me, you know, tell me a little

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:08.360
<v Speaker 1>bit about whether you like the move, you think the

0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:11.880
<v Speaker 1>players more valuable, less valuable, what does that leave behind?

0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Stuff like that. Let's start with Ryan Fitzpatrick signing in Washington.

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 1>He gets a one year, ten million dollar deal and

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:23.040
<v Speaker 1>he is currently the starter over Tyler Heinek. Speaking of

0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 1>a guy we want to touch on multiple times, right,

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:29.079
<v Speaker 1>Ryan fitz Patrick. Yeah, our guys stupid last week he

0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:33.560
<v Speaker 1>was retiring and we were The NFL is a better

0:02:33.600 --> 0:02:37.440
<v Speaker 1>place with Ryan Fitzpatrick in it. I love the landing

0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:40.720
<v Speaker 1>spot for Fitzpatrick for for Washington football team. And we'll

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:45.160
<v Speaker 1>talk about a newly acquired wide receiver for them shortly.

0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:47.919
<v Speaker 1>But the wide receiver that's been there that everyone knows

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:52.400
<v Speaker 1>is uh Matt's good buddy Terry McLaren. Uh gotta like

0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the prospects for for Terry McLaurin a lot better. I

0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:58.919
<v Speaker 1>gotta pull list that from my boy ian heart tits

0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:04.080
<v Speaker 1>from uh ff. Here's the number one wide receiver target

0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:09.239
<v Speaker 1>totals for Ryan Fitzpatrick in the eight years he played target.

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:11.880
<v Speaker 1>These are again target targets, Okay, for the number one

0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:15.160
<v Speaker 1>receiver for Ryan Fitzpatrick when he had ten plus starts

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.359
<v Speaker 1>and we're assuming Fitzpatrick is gonna start at least ten

0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:23.400
<v Speaker 1>games for Washington. And again, Taylor Heineke, he looked, he

0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:25.359
<v Speaker 1>looked kind of fun towards the end of last year.

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:29.080
<v Speaker 1>It's not there. Get the football team almost beat the

0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Bucks in the playoffs behind Taylor Honekey. But back to

0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:35.119
<v Speaker 1>the number one wide receivers for Fitzpatrick, when Fitzpatricks has

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 1>had ten plus starts starting with t J. Houshman Zada

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 1>that was not Fitzpatrick's first team, but his first like

0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 1>true number one wide receiver, but a hundred thirty seven

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:49.120
<v Speaker 1>targets for him. Then Stevie Johnson three years in Buffalo

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 1>a hundred forty hundred forty one hundred thirty four targets,

0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 1>And these are massive amounts. Those are solid numbers. Andre

0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Johnson for a year in Houston, a hundred and forty

0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>six targets. Then Brandon marsh had a hundred and seventy

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:05.720
<v Speaker 1>three targets, a hundred and twenty eight with Fitzpatrick's starting

0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 1>ten plus games, and DeVante Parker drew eight targets essentially

0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 1>with Fitzpatrick. So you get Terry McClure and a hundred

0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:16.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty five hundred thirty five hundred forty five targets. That

0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:21.320
<v Speaker 1>stock is rising time, and and you get Fitzpatrick's willingness

0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:25.360
<v Speaker 1>to drive the ball downfield, something McLaren's never had. So

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:29.600
<v Speaker 1>uh for the whole offense, but really, well I don't

0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about the whole offense. Somewhere Logan Thomas

0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:36.800
<v Speaker 1>who we were pimping a few weeks ago. If it's

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Real hasn't supported a tight end as much as

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 1>we would have liked. He seems a little more wide

0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:44.080
<v Speaker 1>receiver friendly. So I might ding a Logan Logan Thomas

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:49.360
<v Speaker 1>a little bit here, but overall an exciting move. Yeah,

0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:53.000
<v Speaker 1>one way or another, it looks like Tyrod Taylor maybe

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 1>your opening day starter for Houston, no matter if Deshaun

0:04:57.000 --> 0:05:00.719
<v Speaker 1>Watson's traded or not. As we are, and you have

0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 1>to do this up to the minute as we're recording.

0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:09.360
<v Speaker 1>The official number of allegations of sexual assault against Deshaun

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Watson I believe is at seven right now. It's rumored

0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:16.840
<v Speaker 1>to go to nine before long. And even if he

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:19.599
<v Speaker 1>stays in Houston, there may be a real chance that

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:22.240
<v Speaker 1>he's not allowed to play for some or all of

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:24.600
<v Speaker 1>this next season, and not that he doesn't really want

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>to play for Houston either, allegations aside. So yeah, thank you.

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Rod Taylor is now draftable if you're doing Best Ball

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:38.360
<v Speaker 1>drafts right now or even any kind of is he

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:43.320
<v Speaker 1>is he as a last pick? I mean, if you're

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:46.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna get a starting I mean, am I streaming in

0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Week one already? Brian. I think we are. We are

0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:52.360
<v Speaker 1>at least when it comes to the Texans. But there

0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.840
<v Speaker 1>we're not going to talk about the quote unquote weapons

0:05:55.839 --> 0:06:00.720
<v Speaker 1>they've been adding with the Dante Moncreef's in the Yeah

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:05.839
<v Speaker 1>to Rod Taylor going away. Andy Dalton signs for ten

0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 1>million dollars one year deal for the Bears. Bears fans

0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:13.159
<v Speaker 1>are apoplectic at this point, and rightfully so. It's such

0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 1>a dumb move. They already have Andy Dalton on roster

0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.719
<v Speaker 1>in Nick Foles. And I'm not just saying that because

0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:23.680
<v Speaker 1>it's moderately talented white quarterback. It's just, you know, you've

0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:29.080
<v Speaker 1>got a middling, you know, slightly above or slightly below

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 1>average quarterback already there, So why are you taking ten

0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:36.120
<v Speaker 1>million dollars out of your coffers for another guy other

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:39.119
<v Speaker 1>than I just you know, I feel for your Bears.

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.920
<v Speaker 1>If I'm looking for a silver lining here, it is

0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 1>really for Alan Robinson, the best quarterback he's ever played

0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 1>coming into town. So that's what we got going for us. Yeah,

0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Bears fans, you're you're likely tanking this year, so we're

0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:58.479
<v Speaker 1>talking reality football. Yeah, you know, for the Bear for

0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:00.240
<v Speaker 1>the Bears and Alan Robins who is probably the only

0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.719
<v Speaker 1>receiver we care about for the Bears at this point.

0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:06.839
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a slight step up from what he

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:10.360
<v Speaker 1>had last year, but really, Mitch Drabinski was it was

0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:13.760
<v Speaker 1>probably a better fantasy producer at least than either Dalton

0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 1>or Um than Nick Foles. So it's I want to

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 1>get behind. I want to see I want to see

0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Allen Robinson in a great offense and just see see

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:26.040
<v Speaker 1>what happens. But it's not. It's not gonna happen at

0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:28.840
<v Speaker 1>this point. Let's go over to Jamis Winston, who resigns

0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:32.760
<v Speaker 1>with the Saints one year, up to twelve million dollars

0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:35.760
<v Speaker 1>depending on how much he plays. John Payton says it'll

0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 1>be a competition to start the season. They're paying both

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:45.560
<v Speaker 1>now at least this year, Winston and Taysom Hill, not

0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 1>necessarily starter money or backup money. They don't even know

0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:50.720
<v Speaker 1>what they're doing. So yeah, it's surely a competition going

0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:54.960
<v Speaker 1>into training camp. But for fantasy purposes, we want to

0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:58.120
<v Speaker 1>see Winston win this job. Taysom Hill was like the

0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>most selfish fantasy player in the history of fantasy football,

0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:05.280
<v Speaker 1>almost you know, he like he benefits no one but himself.

0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:09.880
<v Speaker 1>He detracts from all his other teammates value. So we're

0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 1>all pulling for Winston. That's all I have to say.

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:16.760
<v Speaker 1>The worry is they're gonna platoon them all year, right right,

0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:20.120
<v Speaker 1>So it'll be Winston until you get down inside the ten,

0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:24.840
<v Speaker 1>and then they are frequently flipping Taysom Hill in. Who

0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 1>might run it in? He maybe you'll pass it, maybe

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:30.560
<v Speaker 1>hands off, and Winston is just gonna get daggered on

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 1>fantasy value if the stuff up close especially is going

0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:38.760
<v Speaker 1>to be Taysom Hills. Yeah, that's ah. The red flags

0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:40.680
<v Speaker 1>are out there. We know that Tayson Hill is gonna

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:43.240
<v Speaker 1>muck up the water as no matter who the starting quarterback.

0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:45.560
<v Speaker 1>But I would like to think that Winston can at

0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 1>least be the between the twenties guy. But ugly situations.

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:52.520
<v Speaker 1>It is ugly now for Michael Thomas in particular. I

0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 1>I you know, obviously it's a step down from Drew Brees.

0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:58.960
<v Speaker 1>But Winston will press the field, will press down field more.

0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Now that's not Michael tom Mrs sweet spot. You know Thomas,

0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:03.839
<v Speaker 1>You know we always think of her. I do. I

0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.040
<v Speaker 1>always think of was catching the ball eight ten, twelve

0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:09.079
<v Speaker 1>yards down field and moving chains and stuff. But I

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:14.920
<v Speaker 1>like the notion that Winston's yolo downs field passing could

0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:20.320
<v Speaker 1>create some bigger plays for Michael Thomas. Then Drew brees

0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Is flagging arm had been able to do over the

0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>past couple of years. Yeah, and we touched on that

0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:29.720
<v Speaker 1>that Thomas was undervalued going into diynasty and redraft formats

0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 1>a couple of weeks ago because he put up numbers

0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:33.679
<v Speaker 1>with Taysom Hill. He was like the one guy that

0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:35.560
<v Speaker 1>actually put up numbers when he came back when he

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.960
<v Speaker 1>was somewhat healthy enough to play late in the season

0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:43.520
<v Speaker 1>last year. So, yeah, Thomas remains undervalued regardless of Winston

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:45.760
<v Speaker 1>or Hill. I think it's kind of a it would

0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:48.720
<v Speaker 1>be a lateral move if their subbing those guys as

0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:52.280
<v Speaker 1>a lateral moment. Still an ugly scenario. Maybe the best

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:54.280
<v Speaker 1>signing in the last quarterback I want to touch on

0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the best I think most sensible signing was Mitch Robisky

0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 1>to the Bills. You know his mobile, he makes him

0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:05.360
<v Speaker 1>a perfect fit behind Josh Allen. You can still you

0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:08.640
<v Speaker 1>can still run that same offense. You don't have to

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.040
<v Speaker 1>change the offense because of the quarterback you've got. You've

0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:13.880
<v Speaker 1>got designed rollouts which can do all that, even designed runs,

0:10:13.880 --> 0:10:16.240
<v Speaker 1>he can do that. I I thought this was a

0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:20.080
<v Speaker 1>really good fit. And you look at how well they

0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:23.480
<v Speaker 1>got Josh Allen the year over your progression from Josh

0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:28.360
<v Speaker 1>Allen staggering maybe the best ever last year any quarterback

0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:31.960
<v Speaker 1>anytime history of the game. Considering where he was at

0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the end of last year to where he got through

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.439
<v Speaker 1>this year, he's second and m v P voting. I

0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:40.680
<v Speaker 1>love Mitch Drobiski getting better and smarter on the bench

0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:42.920
<v Speaker 1>and feel if they need him to fill in that

0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:47.080
<v Speaker 1>offense doesn't necessarily take a big step back. No, and

0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>if True Whisky has to come and then hopefully our

0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:52.440
<v Speaker 1>boys Zack Moss will just get a few more carries

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 1>to take that. There's no better like Warrio to Mario

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:59.840
<v Speaker 1>comparison than Trubisky to Josh Allen. He is like the

0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>hitting me of like the white version of your starting

0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>quarterback coming in but you don't know because you're not

0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:08.480
<v Speaker 1>a big enough video game nerdis Warrios evil. He's the bat,

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>He's the bad Mario. But True Whisky is evil too.

0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:14.160
<v Speaker 1>At the very end of the day, there's much of

0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:18.120
<v Speaker 1>his boyish, good looking grin. Yeah does for us he's

0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:23.160
<v Speaker 1>very evil, especially still in Chicago. We couldn't go the

0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:28.319
<v Speaker 1>whole segment without the whole Mitch Trabisky saying discussion without

0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:31.640
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of sad from bon Sky right. Definitely

0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:35.440
<v Speaker 1>not oh, I think not um. When we come back

0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:39.920
<v Speaker 1>the wide receivers, the notable wide receiver signings, most of

0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:41.880
<v Speaker 1>them are locked up. There's are still a couple of

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:44.000
<v Speaker 1>them out there. We'll talk about whether or not these

0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:46.280
<v Speaker 1>players get better or worse with their with their new spots,

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 1>and what they leave behind. And of these is the

0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:51.280
<v Speaker 1>departing team in a better spot without these guys who

0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:53.840
<v Speaker 1>can benefit all of that stuff coming up for segment

0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:59.760
<v Speaker 1>number two a Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back to Fantasy

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:01.840
<v Speaker 1>fo aall weekly. Paul Charchi and Brian Johnson with you.

0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:05.280
<v Speaker 1>We just broke down the free agent quarterbacks. I didn't

0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:08.480
<v Speaker 1>bother with Jacobe Burst said, I don't think he counts now,

0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:13.960
<v Speaker 1>even though he might be better than the incumbent in Miami.

0:12:14.480 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Not always, not always, not I know he's not. I'm

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:20.000
<v Speaker 1>not god on two as much as most but and

0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:21.880
<v Speaker 1>to uh, and we're gonna talk about the Dolphins in

0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:24.199
<v Speaker 1>a minute here. In fact, let's save it, we'll talk

0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:26.120
<v Speaker 1>about we'll talk about the Dolphins in short order, and

0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:27.880
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk about two and if his value goes up,

0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to I want to start with Juju Smith

0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Schuster and probably resigning with the Steelers. It looked like

0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:36.200
<v Speaker 1>that was completely done. And if you believe the media reports,

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:40.520
<v Speaker 1>he chose the Steelers over some other viable options and

0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:44.360
<v Speaker 1>who are offering him more money. So but why, I mean,

0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:47.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't if I got a choice between

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:51.439
<v Speaker 1>going to the Ravens and getting Lamar Jackson's arm going

0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>versus you know what we saw in Ben Roethlisberger where

0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 1>it just he's at the bitter end of his career,

0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:59.000
<v Speaker 1>and I it just you didn't you had the sense

0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:02.520
<v Speaker 1>that these you know, Juju and the Steelers new all

0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:05.719
<v Speaker 1>season that they were gonna end up separated. Yet here

0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:08.800
<v Speaker 1>they are. They didn't. I am a little disappointed because

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.640
<v Speaker 1>I said he was gonna leave in free agency all year.

0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:13.920
<v Speaker 1>You're going back to this time last year, like this

0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:16.440
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be Jujus. It was a foregone conclusion when

0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:19.560
<v Speaker 1>they drafted Chase Claypool, like Juju's gone. And now I

0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:21.760
<v Speaker 1>was wrong, and I hate it when I'm wrong. So

0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:25.719
<v Speaker 1>Juju stays, What do you think this does for Ben Roethlisberger,

0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Chase Claypool, you know the rest of the receivers. I mean,

0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I was hoping to, you know, frankly, get him out

0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.680
<v Speaker 1>so that we could have more looks for the other receivers.

0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:37.000
<v Speaker 1>So I like better. Yeah, we're right back where we

0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.800
<v Speaker 1>started essentially, and we we we talked about Juju last week.

0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:43.400
<v Speaker 1>You said, expect him to be a free agent, and

0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:46.760
<v Speaker 1>he did come on strong and in the second half

0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:49.440
<v Speaker 1>of the year, going to the playoffs, he was or

0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:51.840
<v Speaker 1>you'll be the top wide receiver from a fantasy perspective.

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:55.679
<v Speaker 1>So people were, you know, they were anticipating their their

0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:59.240
<v Speaker 1>stock prices going up on Claypool and Deonte Johnson offseason.

0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:02.640
<v Speaker 1>I did, now, but they're crashing a little bit. Back

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:05.240
<v Speaker 1>to the support line. Now. It's a one year deal

0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:09.160
<v Speaker 1>for Juju, if I'm correct, and so you know it

0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:10.839
<v Speaker 1>just you may have to wait one more year to

0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:12.880
<v Speaker 1>to get him to clear out of it. He thinks

0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:16.280
<v Speaker 1>that they've got it in place. From a reality perspective,

0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:19.120
<v Speaker 1>one more year of Roethlisberger, he thinks they can win.

0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:22.520
<v Speaker 1>There's we don't want to bashing of the Steelers too much.

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:24.440
<v Speaker 1>But they still have awful run blocking and they have

0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:28.600
<v Speaker 1>no running backs. But for whatever reason, Juju is back.

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, if you sold higher high on Deonte Johnson

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.280
<v Speaker 1>and Chase Claypool, good for you, because I think you're

0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:38.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to wait another year because Juju is gonna

0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:43.320
<v Speaker 1>at least. Let's talk about the Bills and some comings

0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:45.440
<v Speaker 1>and goings from the Bills. They decide not to bring

0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:48.840
<v Speaker 1>back John Brown and he goes to the Raiders. They

0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 1>bring in Emmanuel Sanders to the Bills, and you know,

0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:56.200
<v Speaker 1>for Sanders, he's gonna need to find playing time around

0:14:56.280 --> 0:15:00.360
<v Speaker 1>Diggs and Beasley and Gabriel Davis, and that's a crowded group.

0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:04.600
<v Speaker 1>I think he'll he'll be on the field enough that

0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:07.360
<v Speaker 1>he may just sort of subtract from those guys, But

0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:08.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's gonna be on the field and

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:12.120
<v Speaker 1>enough so that you're ever gonna feel comfortable starting Emmanuel Sanders. Now,

0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:17.360
<v Speaker 1>he's a rare kind of best ball wide receiver handcuff

0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:20.200
<v Speaker 1>where if you invest in Diggs in the wait first,

0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:22.400
<v Speaker 1>early second, I mean Diggs is automatically going to take

0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:25.480
<v Speaker 1>a hundred and fifty two hundred targets out of that offense. Beasley,

0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:27.840
<v Speaker 1>he got hurt towards the end of the year, but

0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:30.400
<v Speaker 1>when he's healthy, he was shocking league. Yeah, he's a

0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:33.160
<v Speaker 1>lock for ten twelve dollars a game. Gabriel Davis was

0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:35.680
<v Speaker 1>a rookie last year, got better every week it see him.

0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:38.280
<v Speaker 1>So Sanders has to be fourth in the pecking order

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:42.120
<v Speaker 1>right now. So but yeah, he's just a deep league flyer,

0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:45.240
<v Speaker 1>late round flyer. And that's from a fantasy perspective. You know,

0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:48.160
<v Speaker 1>he will bring some veteran in a leadership to the group.

0:15:48.160 --> 0:15:50.280
<v Speaker 1>But honestly, they got Diggs already for some of that.

0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:54.400
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, they're just gonna run the ball even lists Buffalo.

0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:56.880
<v Speaker 1>So now the Raiders take John Brown. Dude, it's a

0:15:56.920 --> 0:15:59.400
<v Speaker 1>starter right now. I mean the the rate it's you know,

0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:03.440
<v Speaker 1>as they do the massive makeover of that offense, including

0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:06.800
<v Speaker 1>four new offensive lineman coming this year. Uh that let

0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Nelson Agilar go. Um Williams, he's gone, He's gone. I

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:14.720
<v Speaker 1>mean John Brown is it? John Brown is a starting

0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:17.720
<v Speaker 1>receiver on this in the NFL now, and you know

0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:22.440
<v Speaker 1>he does have really good speed. Um, Derek Carr is

0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:25.920
<v Speaker 1>way better. I think that most people realize John Brown

0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:30.160
<v Speaker 1>to me, is a sneaky sleeper, like right now, like

0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:32.360
<v Speaker 1>he's a last pick of the draft kind of guy.

0:16:32.480 --> 0:16:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I think, I think he's gonna be a sneaky sleeper.

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm with you. He's he's immediately starting on the outside

0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 1>for the Raiders all right now, and he got off

0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:43.480
<v Speaker 1>to a great start last year. He's just always been

0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:46.560
<v Speaker 1>bothered by injury, and it used to be like his

0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:48.800
<v Speaker 1>his head more so than not. It wasn't, thankfully that

0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:50.640
<v Speaker 1>was in the case last year where's getting knocked out

0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:53.440
<v Speaker 1>with concussions. But I remember his times with the Arizona

0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:55.640
<v Speaker 1>that was one of the main reasons he missed so

0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:59.560
<v Speaker 1>much time. But yeah, his injury gave paved the way

0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:02.760
<v Speaker 1>for Gabriel Davis ascend in Baltimore last year or so.

0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:08.159
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, uh, Brown stays healthy, he's a viable wide receiver.

0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Three In most weeks, I would say Marvin Jones signs

0:17:11.920 --> 0:17:14.640
<v Speaker 1>a two year deal with the Jaguars, He's gonna catch passes,

0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:20.359
<v Speaker 1>presumably from Trevor Lawrence. I um, you know, Lawrence looks

0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:23.360
<v Speaker 1>like you know, he is a very promising NFL prospect,

0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:28.000
<v Speaker 1>but most rookies take a while to acclimate. Joe Burrow didn't,

0:17:28.119 --> 0:17:31.399
<v Speaker 1>but most do. And if you know, I gotta believe

0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:33.880
<v Speaker 1>this puts Marvin Jones to me down into like wide

0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:37.840
<v Speaker 1>receiver five territory, wide receiver four territory. He's right in

0:17:37.880 --> 0:17:40.520
<v Speaker 1>that territory where he's gonna have a hundred yards two

0:17:40.560 --> 0:17:46.480
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns once every five games. It seems like Djhark of course,

0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:50.360
<v Speaker 1>still in Jacksonville. Lavish lt Clan Cole is gone, he's

0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:53.720
<v Speaker 1>in uh with the Jets, and D D. Westbrook out

0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:55.920
<v Speaker 1>on the he's a free agent now. He's not coming

0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:59.919
<v Speaker 1>back to Jacksonville. Anytime Jones will start, he will start,

0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:01.920
<v Speaker 1>and uh, but he's gonna be a tough guy to

0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:05.400
<v Speaker 1>pay his weekly production. He's gonna be a frustrate, as

0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:08.520
<v Speaker 1>he pretty much always has been the duration of his career.

0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:11.440
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, a guy in best ball, though, who who

0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:14.840
<v Speaker 1>has gone and will continue to go under valued. One

0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.680
<v Speaker 1>would think the Jaguars are still going to be chasing

0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:21.480
<v Speaker 1>points mercilessly correct, Sorry, we'll be that way. John Ross

0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:23.560
<v Speaker 1>goes to the Giants for one year. He'll had some

0:18:23.640 --> 0:18:27.159
<v Speaker 1>speed to that group, but really looked, really looked lost

0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:29.440
<v Speaker 1>for most of his time in Cincinnati. And I don't

0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:31.960
<v Speaker 1>know that he's much of an impact player here. Yeah,

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.960
<v Speaker 1>did the Giants need more speed? I mean, Daniel Jones

0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:38.439
<v Speaker 1>ran so fast last year over his own feet on

0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:41.359
<v Speaker 1>which would have been a nine of your touch. But yeah,

0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:44.120
<v Speaker 1>not not the wide receiver news they're they're looking for

0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:49.280
<v Speaker 1>in the East Rock. But yeah, John Ross, even in

0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:54.400
<v Speaker 1>in best ball, this moves the needle. Not for me

0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:58.199
<v Speaker 1>in terms of John Ross's fantasy either. Corey Davis goes

0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:00.840
<v Speaker 1>to the Jets. He got a big pay to I

0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:03.480
<v Speaker 1>think that Jets made a mistake here. He he gets

0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:06.439
<v Speaker 1>three years, thirty seven million dollars for Corey Davis. He

0:19:06.480 --> 0:19:08.840
<v Speaker 1>had the one nice season last year, and even then

0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:13.120
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't like awesome season. Off the top of my head,

0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:15.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it was in the neighborhood of a thousand

0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:19.920
<v Speaker 1>yards season. Um, he'll start with Mims and Crowder. Crowder

0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:22.280
<v Speaker 1>on the slot, Mims on the outside, Corey Davis on

0:19:22.320 --> 0:19:25.480
<v Speaker 1>the outside. You know, I don't who his quarterback is

0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 1>is yet to be determined. Head scratching money that they

0:19:28.920 --> 0:19:32.119
<v Speaker 1>offered Davis considering will Fuller, even though it was one

0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:35.440
<v Speaker 1>year he signed for ten point six million dollars. I'd

0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:38.200
<v Speaker 1>rather have will Fuller starting on the outside for a year,

0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:40.959
<v Speaker 1>if from rather than Corey Hips, They're not that neediate

0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:43.720
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver. Denzel Mims is one of the most intriguing

0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:46.720
<v Speaker 1>up and coming wide receiver prospects in the league right now.

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:50.159
<v Speaker 1>And they still got Jameson Crowder in the slides. So

0:19:51.000 --> 0:19:53.760
<v Speaker 1>I know Davis will play on the outside, but yeah,

0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:58.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know he's that was exciting as Brashad Perriman

0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:00.840
<v Speaker 1>was last year, right, just a little young group, so yeah,

0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:03.800
<v Speaker 1>not I think his fantasy value takes a ding from

0:20:03.800 --> 0:20:06.360
<v Speaker 1>where it was in Tennessee. So the type the Titans

0:20:06.440 --> 0:20:11.919
<v Speaker 1>lose in this off season, Corey Davis, Adam Humphries, John U, Johno,

0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:15.680
<v Speaker 1>A J. Brown could be looking at like a hundred

0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:18.960
<v Speaker 1>eighty targets. I mean A J. Brown. I'm serious. I

0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:22.160
<v Speaker 1>think he's gonna be my wide receiver one in my rankings.

0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:26.640
<v Speaker 1>I just he's sitting on potentially and insane season. Yeah,

0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:30.360
<v Speaker 1>a couple of weeks ago we I extrapolated his production.

0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Essentially he was. He was heavily under targeted last year

0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:35.560
<v Speaker 1>and throughout his career. But yeah, if he gets that

0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:38.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of volume, he is easily in the wide receiver

0:20:38.960 --> 0:20:42.879
<v Speaker 1>one conversation. Yes, that's the overall wide receiver on of

0:20:42.920 --> 0:20:45.440
<v Speaker 1>course receptions. I mean, he's a wide receiver one top

0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 1>twelve right now. But yeah, I'm with you. Patriots made

0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:52.439
<v Speaker 1>too bad they made. Patriots made three bad moves, at

0:20:52.520 --> 0:20:55.840
<v Speaker 1>least three this off this offseason signing John U. Johnu

0:20:56.040 --> 0:21:00.560
<v Speaker 1>was brilliant and that would have paid off enormously for fantasy.

0:21:00.560 --> 0:21:04.119
<v Speaker 1>And that was following the Can resigning that we're very

0:21:04.240 --> 0:21:08.359
<v Speaker 1>h like the Can resigning at all, were like, okay,

0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:11.840
<v Speaker 1>now we're going somewhere. But then Henry and we'll talk.

0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:15.359
<v Speaker 1>We'll break down that tight end situation next week. But

0:21:15.400 --> 0:21:20.760
<v Speaker 1>they then they made two bad financial moves. Kendrick Boorne

0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:24.600
<v Speaker 1>with's a shocking three year, twenty two million dollar deal

0:21:25.000 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 1>and Nelson Aglar granted coming off a far better season

0:21:29.400 --> 0:21:31.879
<v Speaker 1>than most of us expected, but given just who he

0:21:32.000 --> 0:21:33.960
<v Speaker 1>is and what we what we've seen for its full career,

0:21:34.840 --> 0:21:37.840
<v Speaker 1>couple two years and sixteen million dollars for him, well,

0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:41.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, they tied up the thirty eight million dollars

0:21:42.000 --> 0:21:44.679
<v Speaker 1>between Kendrick Born and Nelson angel. I know it's not

0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:48.440
<v Speaker 1>essentially apples to apples, but the one year on a

0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:51.399
<v Speaker 1>r eighteen million. You could have had Will Fuller and

0:21:51.680 --> 0:21:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Juju and then he got to like you said, Kendrick Bourne,

0:21:56.640 --> 0:21:59.920
<v Speaker 1>And who's getting paid more than John Brown? Right? Born

0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:03.280
<v Speaker 1>had some flashes with right but they could have a

0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:05.320
<v Speaker 1>great where to put it. They could have had Will

0:22:05.400 --> 0:22:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Fuller and Juju Smith Schuster for less what I just

0:22:10.000 --> 0:22:11.880
<v Speaker 1>I say this all the time and p I get

0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:16.920
<v Speaker 1>nothing but crap on Twitter for this. General manager Bill

0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Belichick is constantly undermining head coach Bill Belichick. Just terrible

0:22:22.800 --> 0:22:26.879
<v Speaker 1>personnel decisions, drafting deals. And I know he's one of

0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:30.639
<v Speaker 1>billion super Bowls. It doesn't mean that he's the He

0:22:30.720 --> 0:22:33.200
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean that that he's doing himself and he favors

0:22:33.200 --> 0:22:35.480
<v Speaker 1>as general manager, he's over his head. It's it's it's

0:22:35.520 --> 0:22:41.200
<v Speaker 1>its own job. Never has a the one wide receiver

0:22:41.280 --> 0:22:43.880
<v Speaker 1>move that went well for the Patriots, and Belichick's whole

0:22:43.880 --> 0:22:47.640
<v Speaker 1>tenure was when they signed that was it. That is it? Yeah?

0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:53.480
<v Speaker 1>And I guess historically and now Kendrick Born and Nelson

0:22:53.520 --> 0:22:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Aghilar so in terms of their fantasy value, they're both

0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:02.960
<v Speaker 1>potentially starters. And I think Glars especially going to start here. Um,

0:23:03.960 --> 0:23:06.239
<v Speaker 1>I can't. We don't know who's thronging the ball. But

0:23:06.280 --> 0:23:08.560
<v Speaker 1>if it's Cam Newton coming off a season with eight

0:23:08.720 --> 0:23:12.520
<v Speaker 1>touchdown passes, I can't. I can't like the fantasy value

0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:14.159
<v Speaker 1>for the one of these guys a lot. And like

0:23:14.200 --> 0:23:15.960
<v Speaker 1>you said, we'll talk tight ends more next week with

0:23:16.320 --> 0:23:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Hunter Henry now John new Smith. You just you feel

0:23:19.240 --> 0:23:21.439
<v Speaker 1>like you just need warm bodies on the outside. And

0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:24.920
<v Speaker 1>that's what Agre and Kendrick Born are. But they paid,

0:23:24.200 --> 0:23:30.920
<v Speaker 1>They paid the flaming hot, supermodel bodies. More power to you, Bill,

0:23:31.359 --> 0:23:36.080
<v Speaker 1>so Nelson Aguilar leaves the Raiders. Tyrrell Williams leaves the

0:23:36.160 --> 0:23:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Raiders and he goes to Detroit where he is now

0:23:40.359 --> 0:23:43.280
<v Speaker 1>their number one wide receiver because they don't have anybody else.

0:23:43.800 --> 0:23:46.960
<v Speaker 1>It's a bad it's it's it's ugly in Detroit right now.

0:23:47.080 --> 0:23:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Is they jettison their number one, number two, and number

0:23:49.520 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 1>three wide receivers? Yeah, Darrell Williams certainly pertinent in the

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:58.680
<v Speaker 1>fantasy world. You would have to think the Lions, who

0:23:58.840 --> 0:24:02.560
<v Speaker 1>have drafted plenty of receivers in this this millennium, Uh,

0:24:02.840 --> 0:24:07.320
<v Speaker 1>we'll draft one of these almost have to Tyroe Williams

0:24:07.359 --> 0:24:09.679
<v Speaker 1>needs to be back on your radar for sure. I

0:24:09.760 --> 0:24:12.480
<v Speaker 1>just don't know why. You know, what is their situation

0:24:12.560 --> 0:24:16.560
<v Speaker 1>that's so poisoned with Kenny Golladay that and there well

0:24:16.640 --> 0:24:20.160
<v Speaker 1>under the cap that they can't just resigned Kenny Golladay,

0:24:20.160 --> 0:24:21.919
<v Speaker 1>who they took all this time and care to mean.

0:24:22.000 --> 0:24:26.399
<v Speaker 1>Kenny Golladay was something of a project receiver. It you know,

0:24:26.440 --> 0:24:28.639
<v Speaker 1>he didn't walk on the field his baby tron. He

0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:31.239
<v Speaker 1>had to earn and you know, gradual steps to get

0:24:31.320 --> 0:24:34.880
<v Speaker 1>up to baby tron level. Now you think you'd want

0:24:34.880 --> 0:24:37.560
<v Speaker 1>to keep him. He's young, he's in entering the prime

0:24:37.560 --> 0:24:40.920
<v Speaker 1>of his career and get the Lions are just letting

0:24:40.960 --> 0:24:43.360
<v Speaker 1>him walk. The same with Marvin Jones that we talked

0:24:43.359 --> 0:24:44.960
<v Speaker 1>about two right, they could have kept him at a

0:24:45.040 --> 0:24:50.760
<v Speaker 1>much cheaper discount, but that's the only thing for a

0:24:50.760 --> 0:24:54.520
<v Speaker 1>rebuilding team. Marvin Jones entering his whatever ninth season, I

0:24:54.560 --> 0:24:56.600
<v Speaker 1>don't know that he would have made as much sense.

0:24:57.160 --> 0:25:00.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm with you there, but I think even the fully

0:25:00.520 --> 0:25:04.480
<v Speaker 1>healthy Goliday is uh, there's too much saving that needs

0:25:04.520 --> 0:25:07.600
<v Speaker 1>to be done in Detroit. There build mode, but no

0:25:07.640 --> 0:25:11.760
<v Speaker 1>doubt it's gonna be a it's gonna be like the

0:25:12.040 --> 0:25:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Major League of training camps. When like to be like

0:25:14.800 --> 0:25:16.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know half these guys are that are showing

0:25:16.760 --> 0:25:20.200
<v Speaker 1>up Detroit's training camp become August, but Curtis Samuel goes

0:25:20.240 --> 0:25:22.760
<v Speaker 1>to Washington, where he's reunited with Scott Turner and Ron

0:25:22.840 --> 0:25:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Rivera from his days as a Panther. He gets three years,

0:25:25.200 --> 0:25:27.960
<v Speaker 1>thirty five million dollars. You know, he's the ultimate jack

0:25:28.000 --> 0:25:31.399
<v Speaker 1>knife guy. He's um. You know, he's good for one

0:25:31.520 --> 0:25:35.280
<v Speaker 1>or two runs a game. He really I think developed

0:25:35.320 --> 0:25:38.119
<v Speaker 1>it nicely as a receiver. He is a he's just

0:25:38.280 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 1>he's kind of a special gadget player who isn't such

0:25:41.960 --> 0:25:43.600
<v Speaker 1>a gadget guy that he can't be on the field

0:25:43.640 --> 0:25:45.959
<v Speaker 1>all the time. You know, like Cordell Patterson was kind

0:25:45.960 --> 0:25:47.879
<v Speaker 1>of a gadget guy. You couldn't use him every play.

0:25:47.920 --> 0:25:50.640
<v Speaker 1>You'd have to just like find like a spot every

0:25:50.680 --> 0:25:52.520
<v Speaker 1>third game where you could do something special with him.

0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:55.239
<v Speaker 1>Curtis Samuel can do that a lot with um. I

0:25:55.280 --> 0:25:57.480
<v Speaker 1>think he has a chance to have a lot of

0:25:57.600 --> 0:26:02.280
<v Speaker 1>impact on a Washington team that now has competent quarterback. Yeah,

0:26:02.600 --> 0:26:06.000
<v Speaker 1>with Carolina d J. Moore and Robby Anderson, who are

0:26:06.680 --> 0:26:09.480
<v Speaker 1>you know soaking up most of the targets. So Samuel

0:26:09.480 --> 0:26:11.480
<v Speaker 1>had to kind of settle for this gadget role with

0:26:11.920 --> 0:26:14.600
<v Speaker 1>targets mixed in. But now with Washington, he's he's the

0:26:14.640 --> 0:26:16.240
<v Speaker 1>number two. He's the number two. So he still got

0:26:16.280 --> 0:26:17.840
<v Speaker 1>all the gadget stuff in his bag. And what I

0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:21.680
<v Speaker 1>love about him teaming with Terry McLaurin as they both

0:26:21.720 --> 0:26:24.480
<v Speaker 1>went to the Ohio State universe and they used to

0:26:24.520 --> 0:26:28.199
<v Speaker 1>like daydream about playing together and so precious. It's a

0:26:28.200 --> 0:26:30.679
<v Speaker 1>it's a it's a fun offense in Washington again with

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:33.680
<v Speaker 1>with our boys stop Beard at the Helm. So yeah,

0:26:33.760 --> 0:26:37.840
<v Speaker 1>Curtis Samuel a very very sexy name. Right now, his

0:26:37.840 --> 0:26:41.879
<v Speaker 1>his ADP has risen with the signing news, no doubt. Alright,

0:26:41.920 --> 0:26:44.920
<v Speaker 1>two more names left, um one does not matter much

0:26:44.960 --> 0:26:47.040
<v Speaker 1>that J J. Green trying to resurrect his career in

0:26:47.040 --> 0:26:49.639
<v Speaker 1>a one yell, one year deal with the Cardinals. He

0:26:49.720 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 1>needs to prove that he can still be an effective player.

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:55.479
<v Speaker 1>And even after you, even if he does prove it

0:26:55.520 --> 0:26:57.240
<v Speaker 1>here at his age, it's going to be hard to

0:26:57.280 --> 0:27:00.439
<v Speaker 1>him to land another big deal after this, but I

0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:04.000
<v Speaker 1>suspect he will. Man, he just sort of lost in

0:27:04.040 --> 0:27:06.159
<v Speaker 1>the shuffle with a lot of good receivers there. I

0:27:06.280 --> 0:27:08.639
<v Speaker 1>just I don't know how much playing time a J.

0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Green's can have, and whether or not I trust him

0:27:10.840 --> 0:27:14.320
<v Speaker 1>to have any kind of reliable fantasy value. You're not

0:27:14.320 --> 0:27:15.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna be able to rely on him as a week

0:27:16.000 --> 0:27:20.080
<v Speaker 1>to week starter, but he's draftable in my mind. He's

0:27:20.160 --> 0:27:23.000
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna be like a guy to keep your eye

0:27:23.000 --> 0:27:26.639
<v Speaker 1>on in daily for sure, but just to see. He

0:27:26.720 --> 0:27:28.960
<v Speaker 1>had some good games last year, and of course in

0:27:29.040 --> 0:27:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Arizona he's a good game maybe two sixteen. I don't

0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:38.000
<v Speaker 1>know he'll be rejuvenated leaving since for sure, I don't know.

0:27:38.080 --> 0:27:40.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not I'm not ready. I called him dust. He's

0:27:40.480 --> 0:27:43.160
<v Speaker 1>not fully dust yet, but there's a lot of dust

0:27:43.160 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 1>storms in Arizona stretching alright. Lastly, Will Fuller, this is

0:27:49.040 --> 0:27:52.200
<v Speaker 1>an exciting move um. By the way, you mentioned, I

0:27:52.200 --> 0:27:54.879
<v Speaker 1>don't think getting A J. Green out of Cincinnati and

0:27:54.960 --> 0:27:57.399
<v Speaker 1>John John Rosses out of Cincinnati as well as you

0:27:57.440 --> 0:28:02.200
<v Speaker 1>mentioned earlier. Yeah, Tyler, boy, I mean the remaining receivers

0:28:02.240 --> 0:28:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I think are all going to get a bit of

0:28:03.960 --> 0:28:08.119
<v Speaker 1>an uptick in in in looks here, boyd Higgins is

0:28:08.240 --> 0:28:12.639
<v Speaker 1>the my my my sleep. As long as UH mentioned,

0:28:12.640 --> 0:28:15.760
<v Speaker 1>Golladay has a chance to sign with Since and then

0:28:15.800 --> 0:28:17.560
<v Speaker 1>they could also draft a wide receiver. But if they

0:28:17.560 --> 0:28:22.240
<v Speaker 1>don't go a big name with but Higgins is the guy.

0:28:22.560 --> 0:28:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Higgins has got upside, He's got everyone's eyes are on Higgins.

0:28:26.760 --> 0:28:30.000
<v Speaker 1>But I audentate though, just keep in my narratar. Will

0:28:30.080 --> 0:28:32.199
<v Speaker 1>Fuller gets a one year deal with the Dolphins. I

0:28:32.240 --> 0:28:35.359
<v Speaker 1>thought he would get a longer deal coming off a

0:28:35.400 --> 0:28:38.240
<v Speaker 1>good season. This PD thing might haunt him a little bit.

0:28:38.600 --> 0:28:40.840
<v Speaker 1>That might have been a contributing factor to him not

0:28:40.880 --> 0:28:43.000
<v Speaker 1>getting as much attention as we thought. He's gonna bring

0:28:43.040 --> 0:28:45.680
<v Speaker 1>downfield speed that Miami is lacking. You know, part of

0:28:45.680 --> 0:28:48.760
<v Speaker 1>what the complaint is with Tah was he just wasn't

0:28:48.840 --> 0:28:53.360
<v Speaker 1>driving the ball down field like Ryan Fitzpatrick was. Maybe

0:28:53.480 --> 0:28:57.680
<v Speaker 1>will Fuller helps unlock some of the downfield passing attempts

0:28:57.720 --> 0:28:59.600
<v Speaker 1>that you could get out of Tah. And we went

0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:02.480
<v Speaker 1>to the turns with Fuller just in the sense that

0:29:02.520 --> 0:29:05.520
<v Speaker 1>he's never really played a full season, and he was

0:29:05.560 --> 0:29:07.760
<v Speaker 1>on his way to playing a full season last year

0:29:07.800 --> 0:29:10.320
<v Speaker 1>and epic full season. But he got pops for the

0:29:10.360 --> 0:29:12.000
<v Speaker 1>P E D s And is that why he was

0:29:12.120 --> 0:29:15.520
<v Speaker 1>playing so well and staying healthy. So I'm kind of

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:17.360
<v Speaker 1>right where we had he was in like the late

0:29:17.400 --> 0:29:21.120
<v Speaker 1>twenty wide receiver range, which I don't think this move

0:29:22.160 --> 0:29:25.320
<v Speaker 1>it's lateral at best from Houston DeVante Parker, I would

0:29:25.360 --> 0:29:29.880
<v Speaker 1>still view as the alpha wide receiver. Uh, there's a

0:29:29.920 --> 0:29:31.920
<v Speaker 1>big move down, don't you think from being the go

0:29:32.120 --> 0:29:35.720
<v Speaker 1>to receivers Watson led off and it's a big to

0:29:35.760 --> 0:29:38.520
<v Speaker 1>the number two receiver and a tool led off. You're right,

0:29:38.560 --> 0:29:41.760
<v Speaker 1>it's I downplayed a little bit. So I'm pretty much

0:29:41.800 --> 0:29:44.680
<v Speaker 1>off of Goladay even or I'm sorry. I Will Fuller,

0:29:45.120 --> 0:29:46.560
<v Speaker 1>even though I don't think he's a d P, will

0:29:46.680 --> 0:29:49.440
<v Speaker 1>budge a whole lot, but high twenties seems a little

0:29:49.480 --> 0:29:50.920
<v Speaker 1>high for me now that he's I think I think

0:29:50.920 --> 0:29:53.280
<v Speaker 1>it is too at the helm and I'm still not

0:29:53.320 --> 0:29:56.480
<v Speaker 1>convinced he can with stand a full season without some

0:29:57.760 --> 0:30:00.200
<v Speaker 1>e s. Yeah, we'll find out. That's gonna be part

0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:02.440
<v Speaker 1>of the concern, and I think I'm gonna be I'm

0:30:02.440 --> 0:30:05.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna let somebody else relive last year with Will Fuller,

0:30:05.200 --> 0:30:08.160
<v Speaker 1>it probably will not be me. Thank you for listening
