0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:49.400
<v Speaker 1>bit later on in the show. We also I am

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:52.200
<v Speaker 1>going to break down what took place in the Browns

0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Giants preseason game yesterday. There's a lot of stuff to

0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 1>talk about with relation to Odell Beckham, with relation to

0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>the offensive minds of both teams, and in relation to

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 1>what happened during the national anthem. You know, Speeds of

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>spitting Statistician is going to get into that. So we're

0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:11.880

<v Speaker 1>We're gonna start talking about who would have a tougher

0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:28.360
<v Speaker 1>matchup on the other side. Also, a little bit later

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:30.520
<v Speaker 1>on in the show, we're gonna talk a little bit

0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:34.240
<v Speaker 1>more about this Connor McGregor Floyd Mayweather fight. We are

0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>now inside of a week. We are less than a

0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.480
<v Speaker 1>week away. I already told you there's some prop bets

0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:41.639
<v Speaker 1>that are coming up on the board. We're gonna get

0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:44.720
<v Speaker 1>into those tomorrow. Tonight, we're gonna talk about what both

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:48.040
<v Speaker 1>sides are doing to just keep on the PR buzz.

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:51.799
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about guys like uh, Justin Bieber being involved.

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about bringing in casual fans of Game of Thrones.

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:59.200
<v Speaker 1>They're doing everything possible to keep this fight on the

0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>lips of country at large, and if you ask me,

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 1>they're doing a damn good job about it. So those

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:07.519
<v Speaker 1>are the things we're gonna be getting into today on

<v Speaker 1>Dame Martinez feeds and spitting statistician, holding you down on

0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:53.960
<v Speaker 1>a Tuesday with my man Chris Pavona, the bounty Hunter,

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:57.440
<v Speaker 1>getting it done here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network.

0:04:57.480 --> 0:04:59.240
<v Speaker 1>We got a lot of stuff to get into, so

0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:01.800
<v Speaker 1>let's start from the news and notes around Major League

0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Baseball and the National Football League. In Major League Baseball, okay,

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:10.599
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers starting pitcher Alex Wood has gone to the disabled list.

0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:13.039
<v Speaker 1>He had a shoulder issue. Remember I've been talking about

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>this for a while. His velocity was down. I was

0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:18.080
<v Speaker 1>worried about him hitting the wall. I told you about

0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 1>this a few weeks ago. Shot called by your boy Speeds,

0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:23.480
<v Speaker 1>the spitting statistician. They need to rest him now so

0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:24.880
<v Speaker 1>that he could be back the way he was in

0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:28.240
<v Speaker 1>the first half when they are likely in that playoff

0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:31.680
<v Speaker 1>in World Series run. The Cleveland Indians have sent not

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 1>one but two of their pictures to the disabled list today,

0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.280
<v Speaker 1>Danny Salazar, who looked great in his last couple of starts,

0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:43.160
<v Speaker 1>and their relief stud Andrew Miller. Miller with a knee injury,

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:47.480
<v Speaker 1>Salazar with an elbow. Uh. That is concerning for the Indians.

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.840
<v Speaker 1>They are dropping like flies down in Cleveland. Massa Heiro

0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:53.839
<v Speaker 1>Tanaka has been activated to get the start for the

0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 1>Yankees tonight. He had um, you know, some inflammation as well.

0:05:57.440 --> 0:05:59.600
<v Speaker 1>He's back at it. He has been kind of a

0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:03.920
<v Speaker 1>boom or bust guy for the Yankees. Hopefully, um he's

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:06.920
<v Speaker 1>built up that strength in that elbow, in that shoulder

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 1>and he'll be ready to go the rest of the season.

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.800
<v Speaker 1>And two guys that are coming back this week that

0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to make note of because if you were

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:16.559
<v Speaker 1>in season long leagues in Fantasy Baseball, they are worth

0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:20.760
<v Speaker 1>a look. First of all, National shortstop Trade Turner started

0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 1>his rehab. Assigned him in Triple A Syracuse yesterday. He

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:26.600
<v Speaker 1>went over three, but that's irrelevant. He also played the field,

0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:28.719
<v Speaker 1>and there are reports that he should be back with

0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.880
<v Speaker 1>the big club in Washington by the weekend. I checked.

0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:36.159
<v Speaker 1>Tray Turner is owned in nine of leagues. That means

0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:38.159
<v Speaker 1>right now, if you're at happy hour like here at

0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Rock and Riley's in Studio thirty four one out of

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the twenty of you, you're in a league where you

0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 1>could just pick up Trade Turner right now and have

0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:48.960
<v Speaker 1>him in your lineup for the stretch. Run, go and check. Okay,

0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.440
<v Speaker 1>you may assume that he's not available, but go and

0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>check because trade Turner could help you, especially in stolen

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.680
<v Speaker 1>bases down the stretch. The other guy I want to

0:06:56.680 --> 0:07:00.720
<v Speaker 1>tell you about Diamondbacks starting pitcher Robbie He has been

0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:04.320
<v Speaker 1>cleared to start against the New York Mets at City

0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Field on Thursday. The Mets are now a triple A lineup. Okay.

0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:11.480
<v Speaker 1>People have been in dfs playing against the Mets, whether

0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:15.520
<v Speaker 1>it's Taiwan Walker or today. You know with uh Corbin,

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:19.800
<v Speaker 1>when you have Robbie Ray and his strikeout potential. I checked.

0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:23.200
<v Speaker 1>He is owned right now in nine of leagues, one

0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:25.840
<v Speaker 1>out of every ten of you pretty much have Robbie

0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Ray right there available on the wave a whire. Go

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:30.520
<v Speaker 1>and check in your league. He can certainly help you

0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:34.360
<v Speaker 1>in strikeouts for the rest of the season. All right.

0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:36.400
<v Speaker 1>In the NFL, we got news and notes, there's a

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:38.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of buzz going on. Okay. We're talking about the

0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:42.560
<v Speaker 1>time between the second and third preseason games. Position battles

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 1>are starting to come to fruition and solidifying. We had

0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:48.600
<v Speaker 1>reports that it will be Trevor Simeons starting for the

0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Broncos yesterday. We have now more reports this time out

0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 1>of Houston. Bill O'Brien has said Tom Savage is the

0:07:58.360 --> 0:08:02.120
<v Speaker 1>starting quarterback for the Houston Texans. I personally agree. You

0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:04.120
<v Speaker 1>know who else loves this news is my man de

0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:08.080
<v Speaker 1>hop DeAndre Hopkins. Remember last year he caught only fifty

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.200
<v Speaker 1>one percent of his targets from brock Oswidler got like

0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:14.320
<v Speaker 1>thirteen fourteen targets in games that Tom Savage was in.

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 1>With Savage as the quarterback, I think you can bump

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.440
<v Speaker 1>up DeAndre Hopkins into a back end wide receiver one

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:25.320
<v Speaker 1>in your fantasy draft. Savage being under center is good

0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:29.560
<v Speaker 1>for DeAndre Hopkins. Also, we're gonna hear about the Cleveland

0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Brown starting quarterback. It sounds like Hugh Jackson is gonna

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:36.400
<v Speaker 1>make an announcement tomorrow. Remember they played last night against

0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.280
<v Speaker 1>the Giants. I'm gonna tell you brock Oswidler didn't look

0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:42.880
<v Speaker 1>that great, Deshaun Kaiser didn't look that great. Will it

0:08:42.920 --> 0:08:47.520
<v Speaker 1>be Cody Kestlar. Will they actually start the seventy two

0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:51.439
<v Speaker 1>million dollar news around the franchise? That was brock Oswidler.

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:54.079
<v Speaker 1>Stay tuned for that. And in that game, of course,

0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:57.640
<v Speaker 1>you probably now know Odell Beckham Jr. Took a very

0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:00.640
<v Speaker 1>interesting hit. The X Rays have come back lean he

0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:03.439
<v Speaker 1>After the game, O d B said that he will

0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:07.320
<v Speaker 1>be ready for Week one against the Dallas Cowboys. But

0:09:07.520 --> 0:09:09.520
<v Speaker 1>as we keep moving here on the fantasy freestyle, I

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:11.520
<v Speaker 1>want to get into some of the things that I

0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:16.079
<v Speaker 1>saw in this Cleveland Giants game last night. First of all,

0:09:16.440 --> 0:09:18.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna tell you right now, the New York Giants

0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:22.560
<v Speaker 1>and old Dell Beckham are lucky that they avoided what

0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:24.560
<v Speaker 1>could have been a serious injury. And let me tell

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:27.080
<v Speaker 1>you something, as a guy who has torn my a

0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:30.440
<v Speaker 1>c L not once, but twice, they were very lucky

0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.520
<v Speaker 1>that Beckham's foot was not planted in the ground. If

0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>his foot was planted, that was the end of some

0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:38.720
<v Speaker 1>of his ankle or knee ligaments. I'm telling you, it

0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:40.920
<v Speaker 1>looks like he escaped. But there was some talk about

0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:43.360
<v Speaker 1>was the hit dirty or not, And I'm here to

0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:46.320
<v Speaker 1>tell you right now, no, it was not. Not only

0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:48.480
<v Speaker 1>was it just a football play, but Odell Beckham was

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:53.560
<v Speaker 1>talking about, Hey, it's preseason. In preseason, you have levels

0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:56.199
<v Speaker 1>to this. Okay, You've got like the veterans that are

0:09:56.240 --> 0:09:58.360
<v Speaker 1>only kind of like going through the motions, don't need

0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:00.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of reps, and are talking a out trying

0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:02.840
<v Speaker 1>to shorten the schedule. You also, though, have guys that

0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:05.800
<v Speaker 1>are battling for position. You have guys that are battling

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.120
<v Speaker 1>to be the starters. You have guys that are battling

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:11.000
<v Speaker 1>to be on the roster. They are not taking it lightly.

0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:14.720
<v Speaker 1>So whoever makes that hit on Odell Beckham, you know

0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.640
<v Speaker 1>they are playing to be seen. They are going hard

0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:21.000
<v Speaker 1>at it, and guess what they should be going hard.

0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:23.840
<v Speaker 1>I will say this though, news today, Oldell Beckham is

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:27.079
<v Speaker 1>saying if contract extension talks with the Giants break down

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:30.000
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more than they already have, He's going

0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:34.720
<v Speaker 1>to take out a one hundred million dollar insurance policy

0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:36.679
<v Speaker 1>on himself. And I gotta tell you, I think it's

0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.840
<v Speaker 1>a wise choice because Oldell Beckham kind of similar to Gronk,

0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:41.640
<v Speaker 1>if you want to know the truth, are putting the

0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:44.559
<v Speaker 1>target squarely on their back. A lot of people want

0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:47.280
<v Speaker 1>to make their you know, make their name on going

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:49.480
<v Speaker 1>up against a guy like Odell Beckham. Just ask a

0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:54.200
<v Speaker 1>guy like Josh Norman, all right. Also, this Giant's pass

0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:57.040
<v Speaker 1>rush is real. This Giant's pass rush is real. And

0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm a little bit concerned about the Bronze offensive line.

0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:02.080
<v Speaker 1>I was saying that I thought the Browns offensive line

0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:05.800
<v Speaker 1>was a top five line in the National Football League

0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:08.160
<v Speaker 1>when they have guys obviously Joe Thomas at left tackle.

0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:11.360
<v Speaker 1>But they brought in Zeitler from the Cincinnati Bengals, and

0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:14.440
<v Speaker 1>I thought that was a good move. But that didn't happen.

0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Kaiser got sacked twice. The pressure from the Giants were there.

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 1>Olivier Vernon JPP. I don't know if this is the

0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:23.920
<v Speaker 1>strength of Giants D line or a little bit of

0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.600
<v Speaker 1>a question mark in the Browns offensive line. To me,

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:30.240
<v Speaker 1>it looks a little bit like both. However, it's not

0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:32.640
<v Speaker 1>like the Giants have an offensive line to write home

0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:37.920
<v Speaker 1>about either. This is an issue for the New York Giants.

0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Their run game is pretty much non existent. Paul Perkins

0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:46.959
<v Speaker 1>six carries for ten yards, Orleans Darkwap four carries for

0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:50.960
<v Speaker 1>eleven yards. This Giants offense still has yet to score

0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:54.199
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown with the starters in all preseason long they

0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:57.240
<v Speaker 1>win ten six, but it really wasn't anything to write

0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.280
<v Speaker 1>home about. They didn't score a touchdown in the first

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.720
<v Speaker 1>preseason in game. I am starting to get worried, especially

0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:05.640
<v Speaker 1>when you saw what they look like with without Odell Beckham.

0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:08.600
<v Speaker 1>This is an issue for the New York Giants. Keep

0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:11.360
<v Speaker 1>an eye on if they find another solution to run

0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:13.560
<v Speaker 1>the ball, if they go deeper in their depth chart

0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:15.800
<v Speaker 1>to a guy like Shane Vereen, who has been my

0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:18.440
<v Speaker 1>diamond than the rough for the New York Giants. And then,

0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:21.000
<v Speaker 1>of course, the other thing we have to talk about

0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.120
<v Speaker 1>is what happened before the game even started where a

0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:28.120
<v Speaker 1>circle of not one, not too but eight members of

0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:30.559
<v Speaker 1>the Cleveland Browns gathered around in a circle and they

0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:32.920
<v Speaker 1>say what they did during the national anthem was quote

0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:37.320
<v Speaker 1>unquote pray for the country. This, however, is getting a

0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:40.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of news coverage today because one of the guys

0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.920
<v Speaker 1>doing this with Seth de Valve. He's a tight end

0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:47.400
<v Speaker 1>for the Browns and he's also white. Okay, remember earlier

0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:49.360
<v Speaker 1>in the week, Michael Bennett said that we need to

0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:53.080
<v Speaker 1>start seeing white players support and do the same thing. Okay,

0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:55.760
<v Speaker 1>we need to see that as well. We also saw

0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:58.640
<v Speaker 1>earlier this week guys putting their hands on the shoulders

0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:01.160
<v Speaker 1>of other people in solid area. Listen to what Seth

0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.800
<v Speaker 1>had to say after this game about why he made

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:06.440
<v Speaker 1>the stance that he did to do something like that.

0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Um I personally would like to say that I love

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:15.800
<v Speaker 1>this country. UM. I love our national anthem. UM. I'm

0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:19.080
<v Speaker 1>very grateful to the men and women who have given

0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>their lives and give it a lot every day to

0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:25.160
<v Speaker 1>protect this country and to serve this country, and I

0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:27.679
<v Speaker 1>I want to honor them, UM as much as I

0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:31.840
<v Speaker 1>can well. UM, the United States is the greatest country

0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:38.000
<v Speaker 1>in the world, and it is because it provides opportunities

0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:41.640
<v Speaker 1>to its citizens that no other country does. The issue

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:46.640
<v Speaker 1>is that it doesn't provide equal opportunity to everyone. And UM,

0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to support my African American teammates today who

0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:57.520
<v Speaker 1>wanted to take a knee. UM. We wanted to draw

0:13:57.600 --> 0:14:01.600
<v Speaker 1>attention to the fact that there's things in this country

0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:05.800
<v Speaker 1>that still need to change. And I myself will be

0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 1>raising children that don't look like me, and UM, I

0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:14.960
<v Speaker 1>want to do my part as well to UM do

0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:19.080
<v Speaker 1>everything I can to raise them in a better environment

0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:23.360
<v Speaker 1>than we have right now. UM, so I want. I

0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:27.520
<v Speaker 1>wanted to take an opportunity with my teammates too during

0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:32.320
<v Speaker 1>the anthem to pray for our country and also to

0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 1>draw attention to the fact, UM, that we have work

0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:38.040
<v Speaker 1>to do. And that's why I did what I did

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 1>fair enough. So there you hear Seth talking about how

0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:44.520
<v Speaker 1>he made the choice to support this kind of protest,

0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:46.520
<v Speaker 1>And I gotta ask you at this point, the ball

0:14:46.560 --> 0:14:48.200
<v Speaker 1>is now in the NFL's court, okay, because this is

0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:50.120
<v Speaker 1>not a one off thing. Is this a league issue?

0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Is this a team issue? Is this an American issue?

0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:55.680
<v Speaker 1>Or is this a non issue now? Because it is

0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:58.240
<v Speaker 1>so pervasive that people are allowed to just do what

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 1>they want to do. Bett made his point. I agree.

0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:05.239
<v Speaker 1>You know this narrative that Colin Kaepernick is a distraction

0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:07.760
<v Speaker 1>that pretty much goes by the wayside. If this is

0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:11.400
<v Speaker 1>going to be large scale demonstrations, NFL, the ball is

0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:13.320
<v Speaker 1>in your court to figure out do you want to

0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:16.200
<v Speaker 1>support your players doing this or take a different stand.

0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.760
<v Speaker 1>When we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle, we're gonna

<v Speaker 1>where we dropped status for beats. I'm good boy, Dame Martinez,

0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:14.480
<v Speaker 1>also known as speeds and spitting statistician, holding you down

0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:17.280
<v Speaker 1>on a Tuesday with my man Chris Bavona on the

0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:19.720
<v Speaker 1>ones and twos. We keep it so hot that we

0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 1>sweat steam. If you're listening to the show yesterday, I

0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:26.320
<v Speaker 1>told you that our team by team previews are over.

0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:29.240
<v Speaker 1>I gave you the over undertotals of every team and

0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>where I would bet to win a little bit of cash.

0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:33.800
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully you listen to me. I was spot on on

0:16:33.880 --> 0:16:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Major League Baseball and I'm gonna be spot on on

0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the NFL as well. But now, with only two weeks

0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:41.920
<v Speaker 1>until Week one of the football season, and I know

0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:45.680
<v Speaker 1>you guys have drafts going on, you gals have drafts

0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:48.480
<v Speaker 1>going on. There's a draft going on right now here

0:16:48.480 --> 0:16:51.360
<v Speaker 1>at Rock and Riley's right by Studio thirty four here

0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:55.480
<v Speaker 1>the home of the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Yesterday, I

0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.440
<v Speaker 1>gave you some quarterback diamonds in the rough, guys that

0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:02.080
<v Speaker 1>I think are gonna dramatically overperform their current a DP

0:17:02.520 --> 0:17:05.800
<v Speaker 1>where they are currently ranked on places like Fantasy Pros

0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:08.920
<v Speaker 1>on ESPN, all those places. I gave you Ben Roethlisberger.

0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I gave you Matthew Stafford. I even gave you a

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:14.439
<v Speaker 1>guy like Chad Henny, who I believe will be the

0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:17.840
<v Speaker 1>starting quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars. And all those garbage

0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:21.359
<v Speaker 1>time points are still valid. Today we go in the

0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:25.399
<v Speaker 1>other direction. I tell you about fantasy fo gazes at

0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:29.080
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback position. Guys, you need to forget about. First up, though,

0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:32.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to once again give you my overall philosophy

0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:36.600
<v Speaker 1>on quarterbacks. You need to wait on quarterbacks. Do not

0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:40.639
<v Speaker 1>invest your second, third, fourth round draft pick on Drew Brees,

0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:43.720
<v Speaker 1>on Aaron Rodgers, on Tom Brady, on Russell Wilson, on

0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:47.879
<v Speaker 1>any of these top five guys, because the difference from

0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:51.360
<v Speaker 1>that tier to the tier that you can get literally

0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:54.440
<v Speaker 1>if you wait and are the last person in your

0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 1>league to draft your fantasy quarterback, the difference is not

0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:01.080
<v Speaker 1>that much early on in your drafts. Go running back,

0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:06.000
<v Speaker 1>go wide receiver. You can wait on quarterback. You heard,

0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:10.640
<v Speaker 1>all right? That being said, I think that there are

0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:12.679
<v Speaker 1>some quarterbacks. Remember I gave you Ben, I gave you

0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:15.800
<v Speaker 1>Stafford yesterday. These are guys who I would even pick.

0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:18.440
<v Speaker 1>I had some of these fantasy full gazes for two

0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:22.159
<v Speaker 1>thousand seventeen at the quarterback position. The first guy I

0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:24.840
<v Speaker 1>want to talk about is the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys,

0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Dak Prescott. Dak Prescott right now is the consensus QB twelve.

0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:34.400
<v Speaker 1>He is going ninety three overall. There is no reason

0:18:34.680 --> 0:18:37.800
<v Speaker 1>to invest in Dak Prescott. I'm sorry to my man,

0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:40.800
<v Speaker 1>Corey Parson, the fantasy executive who you will hear with

0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:43.440
<v Speaker 1>me on Sundays on the On the Lineup Block show.

0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:46.120
<v Speaker 1>He's a big Cowboys guy. He's a big Dak guy.

0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you you need to fade Dak Prescott. Let

0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:53.240
<v Speaker 1>the Corey Parsons and people like them draft him. Here's why.

0:18:53.760 --> 0:18:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Last year, Dak Prescott had four interceptions all season long.

0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:03.800
<v Speaker 1>The NFL m v P was Matt Ryan, he had seven.

0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers, known around the world, is probably one of

0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:10.879
<v Speaker 1>the best quarterbacks in the league had seven. This was

0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:14.439
<v Speaker 1>such an outlier for Dak Prescott. There is no way

0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:17.280
<v Speaker 1>he does not have some regression and turn the ball

0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:21.600
<v Speaker 1>over more. He can literally throw twice as many, three

0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:24.120
<v Speaker 1>times as many picks this year and still be kind

0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:26.520
<v Speaker 1>of in the middle of the league. That is regression

0:19:26.520 --> 0:19:29.200
<v Speaker 1>that is going to happen. Here's the other thing. We

0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:31.800
<v Speaker 1>all know about the Zeke Elliott's suspension, and he might

0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.560
<v Speaker 1>miss six games, he might get it down to four,

0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:36.840
<v Speaker 1>down to two. He may go to court and miss

0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:40.280
<v Speaker 1>no games. I don't know, but if Zeke is missing

0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:43.640
<v Speaker 1>any time, if you were a defense playing the Dallas Cowboys,

0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:46.320
<v Speaker 1>you're going to focus more on the passing game, on

0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:49.359
<v Speaker 1>the returning Dead's Bryant, and on Dak Prescott and his

0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:52.159
<v Speaker 1>ability to beat you. I think that there is no

0:19:52.359 --> 0:19:56.520
<v Speaker 1>way that Dak Prescott replicates the protection of the ball

0:19:56.840 --> 0:19:59.159
<v Speaker 1>and the output that he had last year. Also, a

0:19:59.200 --> 0:20:02.080
<v Speaker 1>little known sek and everyone talks about how amazing this

0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:07.000
<v Speaker 1>offensive line is. I expect slight regression from their offensive

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:09.720
<v Speaker 1>line as well, with guys like Jonathan Cooper at guard

0:20:09.920 --> 0:20:12.159
<v Speaker 1>instead of what they used to have Doug Free. Okay,

0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I think all of these combine to the fact that

0:20:14.880 --> 0:20:18.119
<v Speaker 1>there is no reason you need to spend for Dak Prescott.

0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, I'd rather Matthew Stafford. I'd rather Ben

0:20:21.520 --> 0:20:25.120
<v Speaker 1>Roethlisberger in this spot. I think the Cowboys are going

0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:27.439
<v Speaker 1>to try to be a ball control offense that are

0:20:27.520 --> 0:20:30.280
<v Speaker 1>running the ball. Whether it's with Zeke, whether it's with McFadden,

0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:33.240
<v Speaker 1>whether it's with Alfred Morris. All of these are reasons

0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:37.200
<v Speaker 1>that you should not be evaluating Dak Prescott as QB

0:20:37.400 --> 0:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>twelve in your draft. I say, fade Dak Prescott. He's

0:20:41.560 --> 0:20:46.360
<v Speaker 1>a fuazy forgot about him keeping moving. The next quarterback

0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna mention is all the way up right now

0:20:48.960 --> 0:20:53.360
<v Speaker 1>at QB four. Okay, the fourth highest ranked quarterback right

0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:56.600
<v Speaker 1>now is the NFC champion Atlanta Falcons and two thousands

0:20:56.600 --> 0:21:00.880
<v Speaker 1>set sixteen m VP Maddie Ice Matt Ryan. He's going

0:21:00.960 --> 0:21:04.439
<v Speaker 1>number forty overall, which is basically in the fourth round

0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:07.359
<v Speaker 1>of drafts. I'm telling you right now, there is no

0:21:07.560 --> 0:21:12.840
<v Speaker 1>way that he replicates his MVP season of last year.

0:21:13.080 --> 0:21:19.199
<v Speaker 1>Here's why offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan is now coaching the

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:23.160
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco forty Niners. Okay, in years past, Matt Ryan

0:21:23.240 --> 0:21:26.760
<v Speaker 1>was a guy who would start fast like the Atlanta Falcons,

0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:29.959
<v Speaker 1>and then he would nose dive at the middle towards

0:21:29.960 --> 0:21:32.480
<v Speaker 1>the end of the season. What was different last year

0:21:32.720 --> 0:21:37.720
<v Speaker 1>was that Kyle Shannon he created mismatches usually through scheme. Okay,

0:21:37.760 --> 0:21:39.520
<v Speaker 1>they had a lot of motion plays, They had a

0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:42.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of complicated schemes. If you remember their game against

0:21:42.280 --> 0:21:45.679
<v Speaker 1>the Seattle Seahawks last year up in Seattle, they had

0:21:45.680 --> 0:21:48.199
<v Speaker 1>a couple of busted coverages from the Legion of Boom

0:21:48.400 --> 0:21:51.160
<v Speaker 1>that liked to play straight up that cover three. They

0:21:51.200 --> 0:21:54.720
<v Speaker 1>were scheming things differently, okay, and that is not there

0:21:54.800 --> 0:21:58.720
<v Speaker 1>with Kyle Shanahan. I think now with Sarkesian as the

0:21:58.760 --> 0:22:03.200
<v Speaker 1>offensive coordinator, I could see regression from that entire offense.

0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Here's the other things to consider. After Julio Jones, who

0:22:08.560 --> 0:22:12.240
<v Speaker 1>is really catching passes for the Atlanta Falcons. Is it

0:22:12.320 --> 0:22:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Austin Hooper who's expected to break out a little bit

0:22:15.160 --> 0:22:17.560
<v Speaker 1>at tight end in the second season. Are you really

0:22:17.600 --> 0:22:21.639
<v Speaker 1>trusting Mohammed Sanu? Are you really trusting Taylor Gabriel? And

0:22:21.680 --> 0:22:25.440
<v Speaker 1>here's the thing, as you know, Julio Jones is an

0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:28.440
<v Speaker 1>injury risk. He's now another year removed from that foot stuff.

0:22:28.720 --> 0:22:33.360
<v Speaker 1>But what happens if you invested and Matt Ryan as

0:22:33.400 --> 0:22:35.480
<v Speaker 1>your QB one, and you paid a fourth or fifth

0:22:35.560 --> 0:22:38.160
<v Speaker 1>round draft pick for him, and then Julio Jones goes down.

0:22:38.480 --> 0:22:41.399
<v Speaker 1>I think this offense will still be prolific. But like

0:22:41.640 --> 0:22:44.880
<v Speaker 1>I said, I'm not paying for any quarterback, especially one

0:22:44.960 --> 0:22:47.640
<v Speaker 1>I expect to regress. And that's Mattie Ice. He's going

0:22:47.680 --> 0:22:51.000
<v Speaker 1>at Q before. There's no reason you need to pay

0:22:51.119 --> 0:22:53.040
<v Speaker 1>for him. The other guy I want to give you

0:22:54.320 --> 0:22:57.199
<v Speaker 1>is uh Eli Manning. Okay, Eli Manning. Granted, I know

0:22:57.240 --> 0:23:00.639
<v Speaker 1>he's going as quarterback sixteen, but he's got named you. Okay,

0:23:00.760 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of people think, oh, those Ben McAdoo offense,

0:23:03.440 --> 0:23:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh Eli Manning, volume thrower. While those things are true,

0:23:07.800 --> 0:23:09.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm here in New York. I can tell you he

0:23:10.000 --> 0:23:13.440
<v Speaker 1>looked ugly at times last year. Okay, Eli Manning had

0:23:13.520 --> 0:23:16.800
<v Speaker 1>sixteen picks last year. You know who else had sixteen picks,

0:23:17.040 --> 0:23:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Blake Bortles. You know who else had sixteen picks, brock

0:23:20.680 --> 0:23:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Off Swidler, And some of those interceptions were absolutely ugly.

0:23:26.640 --> 0:23:29.439
<v Speaker 1>Look like he didn't know what was going on. Yes,

0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:32.720
<v Speaker 1>they got Eli Manning new toys. On the outside, guys

0:23:32.760 --> 0:23:35.320
<v Speaker 1>like Brandon Marshall, guys like the first round draft pick

0:23:35.359 --> 0:23:37.440
<v Speaker 1>Evan Ingram. But here's what I'm here to tell you.

0:23:37.680 --> 0:23:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Look at that offensive line. It is still one of

0:23:40.520 --> 0:23:43.840
<v Speaker 1>another bottom ten in the National Football League. They still

0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:47.720
<v Speaker 1>have Eric Flowers protecting his blindside at left tackle. That

0:23:48.240 --> 0:23:50.440
<v Speaker 1>is a problem. I would have liked to see them

0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:52.960
<v Speaker 1>invest instead of on guys like Brandon Marshall, instead of

0:23:53.000 --> 0:23:54.879
<v Speaker 1>on guys like Evan Ingram. I would have liked to

0:23:54.880 --> 0:23:58.439
<v Speaker 1>see them bolster the support for Eli Manning at the

0:23:58.480 --> 0:24:01.640
<v Speaker 1>offensive line. You have Shepard, you have Odell Beckham. That's

0:24:01.680 --> 0:24:03.880
<v Speaker 1>okay for the weapons outside. And here's the other thing.

0:24:04.880 --> 0:24:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Eli is going into his age thirty six season. That's

0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:12.440
<v Speaker 1>about when quarterbacks fall off the cliff. We're talking about

0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:15.040
<v Speaker 1>the fears around Carson Palmer. Look what happened to Eli's

0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:19.040
<v Speaker 1>brother at this age, We're hearing retirement talk from Ben Roethlisberger.

0:24:19.080 --> 0:24:21.680
<v Speaker 1>We're here in you know, does Philip Rivers have time? Yes,

0:24:21.720 --> 0:24:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Eli is in that group. There's no reason to think

0:24:24.200 --> 0:24:25.959
<v Speaker 1>that all of a sudden he turns it around and

0:24:26.040 --> 0:24:29.280
<v Speaker 1>gets better at this point in time, at his age

0:24:29.320 --> 0:24:31.360
<v Speaker 1>thirty six season, I want to give you a bonus

0:24:31.359 --> 0:24:32.840
<v Speaker 1>guy that I want to throw out there. And this

0:24:32.920 --> 0:24:34.560
<v Speaker 1>is the guy that's a little bit further down in

0:24:34.680 --> 0:24:37.760
<v Speaker 1>rankings right now, Q at QB nineteen. I'm talking about

0:24:37.800 --> 0:24:40.960
<v Speaker 1>Andy Dalton. Don't get it twisted. When it comes to

0:24:41.000 --> 0:24:43.199
<v Speaker 1>Andy Dalton, I bring him up because this is another

0:24:43.280 --> 0:24:46.879
<v Speaker 1>situation where they got the quarterback. Nice little toys, right.

0:24:46.920 --> 0:24:49.399
<v Speaker 1>They got the speedster John Ross on the outside. They

0:24:49.480 --> 0:24:52.920
<v Speaker 1>drafted Joe Mixon as well. Here's the thing. They let

0:24:52.920 --> 0:24:56.919
<v Speaker 1>Whitworth go, they let Zeigler go. Those were two all

0:24:56.960 --> 0:25:00.439
<v Speaker 1>Pro caliber offensive lineman. Yeah, it's nice that you got

0:25:00.560 --> 0:25:02.919
<v Speaker 1>John Ross to blow the top off the defense, but

0:25:03.000 --> 0:25:04.720
<v Speaker 1>you know what you need in order to get the

0:25:04.720 --> 0:25:07.520
<v Speaker 1>ball to John Ross down the field. You need time

0:25:07.640 --> 0:25:11.719
<v Speaker 1>in the pockets. And that is not what Andy Dalton

0:25:11.920 --> 0:25:13.840
<v Speaker 1>is going to have this year. And if you go

0:25:13.880 --> 0:25:17.280
<v Speaker 1>back and look historically at Andy Dalton when he has

0:25:17.359 --> 0:25:20.880
<v Speaker 1>pressure in his face, it is not pretty. So I'm

0:25:20.960 --> 0:25:25.240
<v Speaker 1>fading Eli Manning, I'm fading Andy Dalton, I'm fading Matt Ryan,

0:25:25.440 --> 0:25:28.399
<v Speaker 1>and I'm fading Dak Prescott. I'm of course also fading

0:25:28.480 --> 0:25:31.359
<v Speaker 1>Andrew Luck. The news seems to get worse and worse

0:25:31.400 --> 0:25:34.199
<v Speaker 1>as we go about when or if he will be

0:25:34.280 --> 0:25:38.640
<v Speaker 1>under center for the Indianapolis Colts. But we have a

0:25:38.680 --> 0:25:41.640
<v Speaker 1>pole question up right now. I threw out these options.

0:25:41.640 --> 0:25:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Who do you think is going to be the kind

0:25:44.440 --> 0:25:47.240
<v Speaker 1>of worse by relative to their a DP and their value?

0:25:47.240 --> 0:25:51.440
<v Speaker 1>And right now forty three of you agree that Matt

0:25:51.520 --> 0:25:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Ryan will not replicate his m VVP season. Whether it's

0:25:54.920 --> 0:25:57.879
<v Speaker 1>the loss of Shanahan, whether it's the Super Bowl hangover,

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:01.119
<v Speaker 1>or whether it's the injury risk associated with his primary

0:26:01.160 --> 0:26:04.040
<v Speaker 1>target Julio Jones, or whether it's that you follow my

0:26:04.080 --> 0:26:07.400
<v Speaker 1>philosophy and are not paying up for quarterback at all.

0:26:08.359 --> 0:26:10.960
<v Speaker 1>That is fine, But these guys, for me on the

0:26:10.960 --> 0:26:15.680
<v Speaker 1>fantasy freestyle there my quarterback fantasy foul gazes. Forget about him?

0:26:17.440 --> 0:26:28.399
<v Speaker 1>What means that's right? Those are phonies Like if you

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:31.280
<v Speaker 1>ever saw the movie Donnie Brasco, when don the jeweler

0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:33.359
<v Speaker 1>looks into the stones and he looks a little deeper

0:26:33.359 --> 0:26:36.040
<v Speaker 1>and he sees that they're actually fake, their phony, their

0:26:36.040 --> 0:26:38.600
<v Speaker 1>fool gazy you got about him. That's what I say

0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:41.440
<v Speaker 1>about these quarterbacks. And right now you agree forty three

0:26:41.520 --> 0:26:45.000
<v Speaker 1>percent saying Matt Ryan, thirty six percent say Dak Prescott

0:26:45.080 --> 0:26:47.400
<v Speaker 1>is not worth it. I'm telling you, I'll take Ben Roethlisberger.

0:26:47.440 --> 0:26:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I'll take Matt Stafford, I'll take Kirk Cousins, I'll take

0:26:49.880 --> 0:26:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Philip Rivers, I'll take Cam Newton, I'll take Derek Carr.

0:26:53.200 --> 0:26:55.560
<v Speaker 1>All ahead of them, and one of them is going

0:26:55.600 --> 0:26:59.400
<v Speaker 1>to fall in your draft. Our man, Chris Bavona yesterday

0:26:59.440 --> 0:27:02.520
<v Speaker 1>said that Derek Carr fell to him in round eleven.

0:27:02.960 --> 0:27:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Somebody in this group is gonna fall to you. Be

0:27:05.440 --> 0:27:08.440
<v Speaker 1>the last or second to last person in your draft

0:27:08.640 --> 0:27:11.639
<v Speaker 1>to take a quarterback. Don't pay up, especially for guys

0:27:11.840 --> 0:27:16.520
<v Speaker 1>like Matt Ryan or Dak Prescott. When we come back

0:27:16.720 --> 0:27:19.760

<v Speaker 1>and win that cash. We're seeing which quarterback will be

0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:08.440
<v Speaker 1>most disappointing relative to their expectations. Right now you are

0:29:08.440 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 1>saying Matt Ryan, who right now is at Q before.

0:29:11.280 --> 0:29:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I also expect some regression, super Bowl hangover, new offensive coordinator,

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:17.760
<v Speaker 1>all sorts of reasons. I agree, but I'm not paying

0:29:17.840 --> 0:29:20.560
<v Speaker 1>up for quarterback anyway. Big shout out right now to

0:29:20.640 --> 0:29:25.040
<v Speaker 1>Steve Bellman Jr. At Redraft Warrior on Twitter. He says,

0:29:25.120 --> 0:29:28.760
<v Speaker 1>definitely Ryan, and also my man Jake Seely, the all

0:29:28.960 --> 0:29:32.200
<v Speaker 1>in kid. He's saying that Ryan's price is now way

0:29:32.640 --> 0:29:36.320
<v Speaker 1>out of control. Let me ask you something, Chris, what

0:29:36.320 --> 0:29:39.240
<v Speaker 1>do you think about you know, the fantasy fool gazes

0:29:39.280 --> 0:29:41.000
<v Speaker 1>at the quarterback position? Because one of the things I

0:29:41.040 --> 0:29:43.800
<v Speaker 1>find interesting. I had other as an option, and I

0:29:43.840 --> 0:29:46.400
<v Speaker 1>asked people to like suggests, who else it could be?

0:29:46.800 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Six percent say other, But no one has given me

0:29:50.200 --> 0:29:52.840
<v Speaker 1>other options. So I turned to you, Chris, who are

0:29:52.880 --> 0:29:56.160
<v Speaker 1>your quarterback fo gazes for this year? So one that

0:29:56.160 --> 0:29:58.160
<v Speaker 1>that I thought was kind of funny, especially you know,

0:29:58.320 --> 0:30:01.040
<v Speaker 1>I told you I got Derek Cartney love round one

0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:03.120
<v Speaker 1>guy that went a little bit further. I think he

0:30:03.160 --> 0:30:05.360
<v Speaker 1>went about like two or three rounds before that, and

0:30:05.440 --> 0:30:09.520
<v Speaker 1>I just cannot believe it is Jamis Winston. Interesting. I

0:30:09.600 --> 0:30:12.520
<v Speaker 1>actually do not like Jamis Winston for where you're getting

0:30:12.600 --> 0:30:15.600
<v Speaker 1>him in that like seventh to eighth round when you

0:30:15.640 --> 0:30:18.959
<v Speaker 1>can get someone like Derek carr Uh in that eleventh

0:30:19.160 --> 0:30:21.640
<v Speaker 1>in like that tenth eleventh round. Because the one thing

0:30:21.960 --> 0:30:26.160
<v Speaker 1>we were talking about interceptions, Jamis Winston through eighteen interceptions

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:29.560
<v Speaker 1>last year, even more than Eli, even more than Blake Bortles,

0:30:29.680 --> 0:30:32.680
<v Speaker 1>even more than Brock Oswalda. Right now, Jamis Winston is

0:30:32.680 --> 0:30:36.440
<v Speaker 1>also as QB eight at number seventy two overall, so

0:30:36.480 --> 0:30:39.360
<v Speaker 1>that's around six seven eight round. And here's the thing.

0:30:39.560 --> 0:30:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I know, Corey Parson is real high on Jamis Winston

0:30:42.120 --> 0:30:44.840
<v Speaker 1>this year. I think that Jamis is gonna be just fine.

0:30:44.920 --> 0:30:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Remember he got O. J. Howard, he got DeShawn Jackson,

0:30:48.080 --> 0:30:50.040
<v Speaker 1>has new toys to play with, and there's a lot

0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:53.080
<v Speaker 1>of buzz going around the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But here's

0:30:53.120 --> 0:30:56.520
<v Speaker 1>the thing. I always fade the team that is on

0:30:56.640 --> 0:30:59.560
<v Speaker 1>hard knocks, okay, because a lot of times the team

0:30:59.560 --> 0:31:02.440
<v Speaker 1>that's on knocks, they get that exposure, and you know,

0:31:02.720 --> 0:31:06.040
<v Speaker 1>it's NFL films, it's HBO they make everything out look

0:31:06.080 --> 0:31:09.280
<v Speaker 1>to be very dramatic and like Jamis is on the ascension.

0:31:09.600 --> 0:31:12.320
<v Speaker 1>I think Jamis is on the climb up. I think

0:31:12.320 --> 0:31:15.000
<v Speaker 1>he will be one of the faces of the NFL

0:31:15.280 --> 0:31:17.880
<v Speaker 1>in about three years. But I don't know that he's

0:31:17.880 --> 0:31:19.880
<v Speaker 1>worth what people are paying and if people are going

0:31:19.960 --> 0:31:22.520
<v Speaker 1>up to reach for him in say round six or

0:31:22.640 --> 0:31:28.160
<v Speaker 1>round seven. I continue to have the same quarterback philosophy. Wait, wait, wait,

0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:30.600
<v Speaker 1>if you're in a twelve team league, you can get

0:31:30.680 --> 0:31:34.840
<v Speaker 1>quarterback eleven, twelve or thirteen. Get two of them, okay,

0:31:34.920 --> 0:31:37.040
<v Speaker 1>and then whichever one play the matchups, and one of

0:31:37.040 --> 0:31:39.120
<v Speaker 1>them will have an above average season. It might be

0:31:39.160 --> 0:31:42.160
<v Speaker 1>Matthew Stafford, it might be Philip Rivers, it might be

0:31:42.160 --> 0:31:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Ben Roethlisberger. Take two of those guys instead of investing

0:31:45.440 --> 0:31:48.560
<v Speaker 1>the draft capital in round four for a guy like

0:31:48.840 --> 0:31:51.520
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan. But here we are on the Fantasy Sports

0:32:55.640 --> 0:33:00.560
<v Speaker 1>All right, Chris. Yesterday we had our first semifinal for

0:33:00.720 --> 0:33:02.880
<v Speaker 1>the greatest sports movie of all time. As we put

0:33:02.880 --> 0:33:06.080
<v Speaker 1>the fun and Functional Sports Radio. It is Rocky Verse

0:33:06.200 --> 0:33:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Varsity Blues that matchup has just come to an end,

0:33:10.160 --> 0:33:13.080
<v Speaker 1>and it is, in fact, Rocky with six percent of

0:33:13.120 --> 0:33:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the vote, that will be advancing to the championship. I

0:33:16.880 --> 0:33:19.360
<v Speaker 1>know you love Rocky. Um. I wanted to ask you

0:33:19.360 --> 0:33:21.800
<v Speaker 1>though about this football region where Varsity Blues came out.

0:33:21.960 --> 0:33:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Do you think the recency bias was that strong? You know,

0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:28.600
<v Speaker 1>because teams like you know, movies like Brian Song, movies

0:33:28.640 --> 0:33:31.040
<v Speaker 1>like North Dallas forty never made it out of the

0:33:31.080 --> 0:33:35.200
<v Speaker 1>first round when it comes to that region. Okay, Instead

0:33:35.440 --> 0:33:38.440
<v Speaker 1>there were things like you know, it was uh, you know,

0:33:38.920 --> 0:33:41.959
<v Speaker 1>like Varsity Blues, and it was other movies that are

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:45.120
<v Speaker 1>much more recent. Do you think the recency bias continues

0:33:45.160 --> 0:33:48.560
<v Speaker 1>to hold in this tournament? Not? I don't. I don't

0:33:48.600 --> 0:33:51.280
<v Speaker 1>think so. I think once that. I think once we've

0:33:51.320 --> 0:33:53.040
<v Speaker 1>gotten to the final four and this one, I think

0:33:53.080 --> 0:33:57.520
<v Speaker 1>recently bias gets thrown out the window. Again. It's Rocky, man.

0:33:57.560 --> 0:34:00.520
<v Speaker 1>It Rocky is not it's not recent. It's not recent.

0:34:00.640 --> 0:34:04.560
<v Speaker 1>It's not bias, it's timeless. That is why I think

0:34:04.600 --> 0:34:07.560
<v Speaker 1>that the recency bias is over in the football region.

0:34:07.600 --> 0:34:11.200
<v Speaker 1>I think it was probably the worst out of all

0:34:11.239 --> 0:34:15.640
<v Speaker 1>the other regions. Um I I wanted to say that

0:34:15.680 --> 0:34:18.040
<v Speaker 1>basketball basket. The basketball region had a little bit more

0:34:18.040 --> 0:34:22.080
<v Speaker 1>of a recency bias, But um, a movie like White

0:34:22.080 --> 0:34:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Man Can't Jump really wasn't necessarily. Um it's not a

0:34:26.000 --> 0:34:29.480
<v Speaker 1>recent movie, it's not an old movie, but it's sort

0:34:29.520 --> 0:34:31.320
<v Speaker 1>of a niche movie. So I don't think that recency

0:34:31.320 --> 0:34:33.960
<v Speaker 1>bias was an issue, especially once it got up to

0:34:34.160 --> 0:34:37.279
<v Speaker 1>against a movie like Space Jam. Fair enough, fair enough,

0:34:37.320 --> 0:34:40.200
<v Speaker 1>we will have the second semifinal. The poll will open

0:34:40.280 --> 0:34:42.960
<v Speaker 1>tomorrow on the Fantasy Freestyle. It's the champion of the

0:34:43.000 --> 0:34:46.080
<v Speaker 1>basketball region versus the champion of the baseball region. The

0:34:46.080 --> 0:34:48.880
<v Speaker 1>three seed White Men Can't Jump will be going up

0:34:48.920 --> 0:34:51.200
<v Speaker 1>against the four seed of the baseball region, the sand Lot.

0:34:51.320 --> 0:34:53.719
<v Speaker 1>Remember to make your voice heard tomorrow. The poll will

0:34:53.760 --> 0:34:56.080
<v Speaker 1>be up at F and T s Y Radio at

0:34:56.120 --> 0:34:58.840
<v Speaker 1>spitting speed as we hope to crown the greatest sports

0:34:58.840 --> 0:35:01.399
<v Speaker 1>movie of all time? Will anybody be able to take

0:35:01.400 --> 0:35:06.480
<v Speaker 1>out Adrian Rocky Mickey and Rocky, the movie itself of

0:35:06.560 --> 0:35:10.080
<v Speaker 1>the Award Oscar winner of Best Picture for nineteen seventies six.

0:35:10.120 --> 0:35:11.759
<v Speaker 1>All right, I promise you that we would talk a

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:14.640
<v Speaker 1>little bit about Floyd Mayweather and Connor McGregor. There's only

0:35:14.680 --> 0:35:17.000
<v Speaker 1>four or five days left to this fight, and I

0:35:17.000 --> 0:35:20.520
<v Speaker 1>gotta tell you something. These guys are doing absolutely whatever

0:35:20.560 --> 0:35:23.080
<v Speaker 1>they can to stay in the news. Remember they had

0:35:23.080 --> 0:35:26.360
<v Speaker 1>the promotional tour. Then you remember Pauli Malinaji about the

0:35:26.440 --> 0:35:28.680
<v Speaker 1>video of if we got knocked down and sparring or not?

0:35:29.000 --> 0:35:30.680
<v Speaker 1>And I told you and big shout out to my

0:35:30.680 --> 0:35:33.520
<v Speaker 1>man Gabe Moreency. Okay, Gabe who follows us on the

0:35:33.520 --> 0:35:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Fantasy Sports Radio network from eight at eight o'clock his

0:35:37.000 --> 0:35:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Red Heat and Rage show. He has been all over

0:35:39.320 --> 0:35:41.719
<v Speaker 1>this from the beginning, saying that in fact, what was

0:35:41.719 --> 0:35:44.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna start happening is you know video of Floyd looking old.

0:35:44.960 --> 0:35:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I told you a couple of weeks ago. Floyd gives

0:35:47.160 --> 0:35:49.879
<v Speaker 1>the edge on paper to Connor McGregor, saying that he's

0:35:49.920 --> 0:35:51.839
<v Speaker 1>in his forties, that he hasn't fought a little while

0:35:52.040 --> 0:35:54.640
<v Speaker 1>they are drumming this up just so that it stays

0:35:54.680 --> 0:35:57.960
<v Speaker 1>on the tongue of people in the sports arena and

0:35:58.160 --> 0:36:00.840
<v Speaker 1>so that you know, people think, oh, maybe I should

0:36:00.880 --> 0:36:03.840
<v Speaker 1>buy this fight. But it's also looking to have crossover appeal.

0:36:04.440 --> 0:36:06.839
<v Speaker 1>And check this out. Here are two ways that this

0:36:06.880 --> 0:36:10.920
<v Speaker 1>crossover appeal has started. You know who Floyd is now

0:36:10.960 --> 0:36:14.399
<v Speaker 1>saying that he's upset with that he quote unquote went

0:36:14.520 --> 0:36:20.160
<v Speaker 1>nuclear about Justin Bieber. Apparently Justin Bieber decided to unfollow

0:36:20.280 --> 0:36:23.759
<v Speaker 1>Floyd Mayweather on Instagram. There used to be boys, and

0:36:23.800 --> 0:36:27.080
<v Speaker 1>now Floyd is going after Bieber saying he's disappointed that

0:36:27.120 --> 0:36:30.680
<v Speaker 1>he's Really all this is is to generate social media

0:36:30.840 --> 0:36:34.000
<v Speaker 1>buzz so that guys like me continue to talk about it.

0:36:34.120 --> 0:36:36.440
<v Speaker 1>And I'm telling you I am a willing participant in

0:36:36.480 --> 0:36:39.799
<v Speaker 1>this because I think that this spectacle, this business deal,

0:36:39.840 --> 0:36:42.760
<v Speaker 1>do not call it a boxing match, is the event

0:36:42.960 --> 0:36:44.920
<v Speaker 1>of the summer. Maybe second on way to Michael Phelps

0:36:45.040 --> 0:36:47.279
<v Speaker 1>racing the Shark. Here's the other thing. You want some

0:36:47.320 --> 0:36:49.840
<v Speaker 1>crossover appeal. What is like the hottest thing in pop

0:36:49.840 --> 0:36:54.200
<v Speaker 1>cultures right now, Game of Thrones. So check this out.

0:36:54.440 --> 0:36:58.279
<v Speaker 1>Connor McGregor actually had a sparring session with a guy

0:36:58.360 --> 0:37:00.880
<v Speaker 1>from Game of Thrones known as the Mountain. If this

0:37:00.960 --> 0:37:03.839
<v Speaker 1>was on Target, you know, Jake Celian, Joe Pisappia would

0:37:03.840 --> 0:37:05.960
<v Speaker 1>be talking about it. He had a sparring session with

0:37:06.200 --> 0:37:09.399
<v Speaker 1>the Mountain. This guy is like six ft nine, four

0:37:09.480 --> 0:37:12.600
<v Speaker 1>hundred pounds and Connor had a sparring session. Check out

0:37:12.600 --> 0:37:16.000
<v Speaker 1>what Connor McGregor had to say after his sparring session

0:37:16.040 --> 0:37:21.040
<v Speaker 1>with the Mountain from Game of Thrones Mountain, Yeah, it

0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:23.319
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of fun. That's a big man, six

0:37:23.360 --> 0:37:27.480
<v Speaker 1>ft nine, four hundred pounds, and I still followed him up.

0:37:28.760 --> 0:37:31.560
<v Speaker 1>It looked like you were hitting I'm right, I'm saying

0:37:31.560 --> 0:37:32.800
<v Speaker 1>them with some shutout. I had to hear him with

0:37:32.880 --> 0:37:34.319
<v Speaker 1>some shots. He was hitting me, just trying to hit

0:37:34.360 --> 0:37:36.200
<v Speaker 1>me as well. People saying, now he was taking it easy.

0:37:36.200 --> 0:37:38.120
<v Speaker 1>He tried to grab my knee and tried to pull

0:37:38.200 --> 0:37:42.160
<v Speaker 1>my head off, and I defended free the head. And

0:37:42.600 --> 0:37:45.440
<v Speaker 1>this was so big, I have to start smacking him

0:37:45.440 --> 0:37:48.239
<v Speaker 1>a field with the buddy. But it originally started because

0:37:48.239 --> 0:37:50.240
<v Speaker 1>we just I just wanted to ever see that famous

0:37:50.239 --> 0:37:54.960
<v Speaker 1>Bruce League film with what's the guy's name, Kareem where

0:37:55.120 --> 0:37:57.880
<v Speaker 1>like face was like, let's take a cool picture like that.

0:37:58.360 --> 0:38:00.400
<v Speaker 1>And then when he squared as if we're gonna do

0:38:00.440 --> 0:38:02.560
<v Speaker 1>and then all of a sudden, he's bouncing and I'm bouncing.

0:38:02.960 --> 0:38:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Next thing you know, we're having a full barnole buddy fight,

0:38:05.239 --> 0:38:09.440
<v Speaker 1>buddy sholl fight. No, just kind of fallen into it.

0:38:10.200 --> 0:38:12.400
<v Speaker 1>But I sunk him good. I caught him good. Not

0:38:12.520 --> 0:38:16.320
<v Speaker 1>even a mountain can take these shots from me. Okay,

0:38:16.600 --> 0:38:20.719
<v Speaker 1>Connor the notorious one, everything from his drunken noodle to

0:38:20.960 --> 0:38:23.280
<v Speaker 1>his talk about that he could take out the mountain.

0:38:23.360 --> 0:38:26.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you this is going a little too far.

0:38:26.280 --> 0:38:29.240
<v Speaker 1>I gotta ask you, Chris, how far can just straight

0:38:29.320 --> 0:38:34.320
<v Speaker 1>confidence take you in this world? I mean I always

0:38:34.360 --> 0:38:36.800
<v Speaker 1>try and tell some people who have just been just

0:38:36.920 --> 0:38:39.600
<v Speaker 1>been broken up, like you know, it takes getting back

0:38:39.680 --> 0:38:43.480
<v Speaker 1>to that confidence. Um, it's that it's that thing of

0:38:43.600 --> 0:38:47.760
<v Speaker 1>like confidence meets cockiness and that's where you get swagger. Right, Okay,

0:38:47.840 --> 0:38:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I we need to make a little ven diagram of this,

0:38:50.360 --> 0:38:52.439
<v Speaker 1>and the intersection is swagger. Is that what you're saying?

0:38:52.480 --> 0:38:54.920
<v Speaker 1>That's what I'm thinking. Fair enough? Fair enough. Let me

0:38:54.960 --> 0:38:58.640
<v Speaker 1>tell you, though, there are opportunities to make some cash

0:38:58.760 --> 0:39:01.839
<v Speaker 1>on this fight. I've been told you all summer long.

0:39:02.200 --> 0:39:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Floyd Mayweather started at something like minus For your newbies

0:39:07.040 --> 0:39:09.200
<v Speaker 1>out there, that means you would have to bet twenty

0:39:09.280 --> 0:39:12.680
<v Speaker 1>one hundred dollars on Floyd Mayweather in order to just

0:39:12.800 --> 0:39:15.799
<v Speaker 1>win a hundred. That is now all the way down.

0:39:15.920 --> 0:39:18.719
<v Speaker 1>I am seeing it at some places as low as

0:39:18.880 --> 0:39:22.400
<v Speaker 1>minus four fifty. Earlier, like last week, it was my

0:39:22.640 --> 0:39:24.799
<v Speaker 1>six hundred. It was down to minus five fifty down

0:39:24.840 --> 0:39:28.239
<v Speaker 1>to minus five. That means all the money is coming

0:39:28.280 --> 0:39:33.280
<v Speaker 1>in on connumerc Gregor guess what exactly like. They want

0:39:33.640 --> 0:39:37.920
<v Speaker 1>to keep you interested and ultimately pay to get this

0:39:38.160 --> 0:39:40.880

<v Speaker 1>Fantasy Sports Radio Network. It's your boy, Dane Martinez Speeds,

0:41:04.480 --> 0:41:07.600
<v Speaker 1>the spitting statistician holding you down, my man, Chris Bavona,

0:41:07.640 --> 0:41:10.560
<v Speaker 1>give me a little method man as we come backdropping

0:41:10.719 --> 0:41:13.600
<v Speaker 1>stats over beats. Let me tell you something. I love this.

0:41:13.960 --> 0:41:17.160
<v Speaker 1>We have breaking news to report and it is a

0:41:17.480 --> 0:41:20.520
<v Speaker 1>big one. We're going going to the NBA where the

0:41:20.680 --> 0:41:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland Cavaliers have reached an agreement to trade Kyrie Irving

0:41:27.160 --> 0:41:32.319
<v Speaker 1>to the Boston Celtics. That this is a huge deal

0:41:32.600 --> 0:41:36.120
<v Speaker 1>that will shake the balance of power in the Eastern Conference,

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:39.759
<v Speaker 1>if not the entire NBA. Kyrie Irving traded to the

0:41:39.840 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Celtics for Isaiah Thomas, Jay Crowder and the Brooklyn pick.

0:41:45.920 --> 0:41:48.600
<v Speaker 1>The Brooklyn first round pick next year, and that is

0:41:48.680 --> 0:41:52.680
<v Speaker 1>probably positioned to be pretty high. That means that the

0:41:52.800 --> 0:41:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Celtics are now gonna go at the Eastern Conference with

0:41:56.080 --> 0:41:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Kyrie Irving at guard. Maybe guys like Marcus Smart, Jalen

0:42:00.080 --> 0:42:03.160
<v Speaker 1>round Up and coming rookies. At forward, they're gonna have

0:42:03.640 --> 0:42:07.400
<v Speaker 1>Gordon Hayward who they signed, Jason Tatum who they drafted

0:42:07.440 --> 0:42:11.000
<v Speaker 1>in the top five. Okay, and at center Al Horford.

0:42:11.360 --> 0:42:16.600
<v Speaker 1>I think this now becomes the best roster in the

0:42:16.800 --> 0:42:20.239
<v Speaker 1>Eastern Conference. And with no Kyrie, you gotta talk about

0:42:20.280 --> 0:42:23.960
<v Speaker 1>how Isaiah Thomas and Lebron James fit. Is he comfortable

0:42:24.400 --> 0:42:27.759
<v Speaker 1>being in the Lebron James shadow? We heard word that

0:42:27.920 --> 0:42:30.799
<v Speaker 1>Lebron might be out as well after this year. Will

0:42:30.880 --> 0:42:33.040
<v Speaker 1>it be to l A, Will it be to New York?

0:42:33.400 --> 0:42:36.400
<v Speaker 1>We will talk about this more tomorrow on the Fantasy

0:42:36.480 --> 0:42:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Freestyle for sure. But breaking news. It has been consummated.

0:42:41.560 --> 0:42:44.600
<v Speaker 1>It is being reported on a number of places and

0:42:44.800 --> 0:42:48.280
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter. Check it out. Kyrie irving to the Boston

0:42:48.400 --> 0:42:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Celtics for a package that includes Isaiah Thomas, Jay Crowder

0:42:53.280 --> 0:42:59.200
<v Speaker 1>and the Brooklyn Nets two thousand eighteen first round pick. Boy,

0:42:59.680 --> 0:43:01.680
<v Speaker 1>that is something I might need to bring mom. Boy.

0:43:01.760 --> 0:43:05.279
<v Speaker 1>Donnie Burns the basketball correspondent and love dr back to

0:43:05.360 --> 0:43:08.000
<v Speaker 1>talk about that one. Also, like I said, we had

0:43:08.040 --> 0:43:10.839
<v Speaker 1>to pull up on Twitter today. Okay, who was your

0:43:11.320 --> 0:43:15.640
<v Speaker 1>NFL Fantasy football quarterback fu gaze for two thousand seventeen.

0:43:15.680 --> 0:43:18.520
<v Speaker 1>That got to forget about Matt Ryan still leading the poll.

0:43:18.600 --> 0:43:21.400
<v Speaker 1>I agree with that, Dak Prescott is not gonna re

0:43:21.960 --> 0:43:25.600
<v Speaker 1>recreate that four interception season of last year his rookie year,

0:43:25.680 --> 0:43:28.440
<v Speaker 1>to be honest. Also Eli Manning and some other options

0:43:28.520 --> 0:43:30.440
<v Speaker 1>as well. I'm gonna give a shout out to Fantasy

0:43:30.520 --> 0:43:34.720
<v Speaker 1>Field Report on Twitter, who responded saying Mariota is someone

0:43:34.800 --> 0:43:37.520
<v Speaker 1>he thinks is a fugazy. I disagree a little bit.

0:43:37.719 --> 0:43:39.640
<v Speaker 1>I think the shackles come off a little bit. It's

0:43:39.719 --> 0:43:42.840
<v Speaker 1>less exotic smash mouth. He's got new weapons and guys

0:43:42.880 --> 0:43:46.239
<v Speaker 1>like Corey Davis and Eric Decker, Rashad Matthews not that bad.

0:43:46.440 --> 0:43:49.920
<v Speaker 1>They're still gonna protect Mariota half read options things like

0:43:50.080 --> 0:43:53.080
<v Speaker 1>that half field reads. But I do think Mariota is

0:43:53.120 --> 0:43:56.800
<v Speaker 1>serviceable in that area. The other person here, Clayton Trey

0:43:56.840 --> 0:44:00.239
<v Speaker 1>Hand big shout out at Claymore's FFB on Twitter, is

0:44:00.280 --> 0:44:05.239
<v Speaker 1>saying Russell Wilson is his full dazy for the season. Now,

0:44:05.320 --> 0:44:07.279
<v Speaker 1>let me tell you something. I don't disagree with that,

0:44:07.280 --> 0:44:09.319
<v Speaker 1>because Russell Wilson is also up there at the top

0:44:09.400 --> 0:44:12.440
<v Speaker 1>five or six. I'm not investing the draft capital for that.

0:44:12.840 --> 0:44:16.040
<v Speaker 1>And Clayton makes a great point that the offensive line

0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:19.719
<v Speaker 1>in Seattle is atrocious. I agree, and they even just

0:44:19.880 --> 0:44:22.960
<v Speaker 1>lost their left tackle font Toward a c L injury

0:44:23.280 --> 0:44:26.680
<v Speaker 1>for the rest of the season. So those are things

0:44:26.760 --> 0:44:30.239
<v Speaker 1>to look at Tomorrow. On the Fantasy Freestyle, we're gonna

0:44:30.280 --> 0:44:33.360
<v Speaker 1>have to talk a little bit about this Kyrie Irving

0:44:33.400 --> 0:44:36.520
<v Speaker 1>trade to Ball to Ball buston. As you know, Hard

0:44:36.600 --> 0:44:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Knocks following the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is on tonight. We'll

0:44:39.480 --> 0:44:41.880
<v Speaker 1>talk a little bit about what happened in that episode,

0:44:42.239 --> 0:44:44.360
<v Speaker 1>and uh, you know, if it inflates the price on

0:44:44.480 --> 0:44:47.719
<v Speaker 1>guys like Jamis Winston, like Chris mentioned, if it inflates

0:44:47.760 --> 0:44:50.360
<v Speaker 1>the over under on a team like the Tampa Bay Bucks.

0:44:50.560 --> 0:44:53.000
<v Speaker 1>We're also we're done with the quarterbacks. We're gonna move

0:44:53.080 --> 0:44:55.960
<v Speaker 1>to the fantasy running backs. Okay, I'm gonna give you

0:44:56.280 --> 0:44:59.200
<v Speaker 1>my diamonds in the rough for fantasy football. At the

0:44:59.320 --> 0:45:02.760
<v Speaker 1>running back position, this is where you win and lose

0:45:02.880 --> 0:45:05.279
<v Speaker 1>your league. It is making sure you pick the guys

0:45:05.360 --> 0:45:07.520
<v Speaker 1>that are the right person in that committee, the guys

0:45:07.600 --> 0:45:10.480
<v Speaker 1>that are ascending, pick the right rookies. We'll talk about

0:45:10.520 --> 0:45:13.960
<v Speaker 1>it here tomorrow. On the Fantasy Freestyle as we drop

0:45:14.160 --> 0:45:16.480
