Speaker 1: wait that we will get you inside Studio thirty four.
Speaker 1: This easy the BFFs His Frank Staffle. I am Greg
Speaker 1: saucepan e Wise on a plane home from Bakersfield, California.
Speaker 1: What's happening, Frankie, Greggy? Very eventful Monday night football game
Speaker 1: last night, which I'm not sure how much you actually
Speaker 1: watched of or how much anybody actually watched it, because dude,
Speaker 1: I watched none of it. There wasn't really much going
Speaker 1: on in that game outside of a ton of running
Speaker 1: back production for the San Francisco forty Niners. It was
Speaker 1: a complete beat down, but our Yankees got the Bruins
Speaker 1: baby sweep. There there was a lot going on last night,
Speaker 1: just from a sports perspective. You had Zion's debut, NBA
Speaker 1: preseason basketball, MLB playoffs actually a terrible football game. There's
Speaker 1: a lot going on last night. I'd just sleep not
Speaker 1: long enough. I went to bed late last night. I
Speaker 1: stayed up to watch the Yankees, and I I was
Speaker 1: I just wasn't gonna go to bad. I mean, it's like,
Speaker 1: it's the playoffs, and this is when you stay off
Speaker 1: obviously for these games. And not that I kill announcers
Speaker 1: often because it's like that's not worth it. John Smalls
Speaker 1: was like brutal last night. Man, Like even like Alan
Speaker 1: Han was tweeting about it, and he was just like,
Speaker 1: I don't get what this like, people like um Neil
Speaker 1: Keith and and Costos tweet about like, oh announced just
Speaker 1: being a homer. But like John Smoltz got so annoyed
Speaker 1: anytime the Egkees like did anything, oh man, things going
Speaker 1: the Eggies away again, Like wow, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: The old objective broadcasting it was. It was weird. It
Speaker 1: was like this interesting. I did not like the announcer
Speaker 1: at all last night. I did like the outcome, though
Speaker 1: you knew Chapman and making interesting in the ninth because
Speaker 1: he is what he does. Becauabra Torres has lost into
Speaker 1: a star obviously before our eyes. And it's awesome. Man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's move on. Hopefully Tampa Bay will get a win tonight.
Speaker 1: Let's go raise so if nothing else, Garrett Cole will
Speaker 1: have to pitch on Thur's night. It should be awesome.
Speaker 1: What does this? What does the series start Saturday? By Saturday,
Speaker 1: which means Verlander would probably still be good to go
Speaker 1: because he's pitching tonight, so three days will be three
Speaker 1: days rast on Saturday. Yeah, I'd probably go grinky. They
Speaker 1: probably go Grinky in Game one, Verlander in Game two.
Speaker 1: That's probably fine. Greggy didn't look great against Tampa Bay race.
Speaker 1: He's obviously have everybody lined up to go in as
Speaker 1: as they want. Who knows what could happen. Carl Stone
Speaker 1: stinks by the way, He's been so bad. He's bad played,
Speaker 1: he's bad in the field. What is his US? Put
Speaker 1: Cameron Mayban out there? He hit a run that had
Speaker 1: uh the average I mean do more. He makes more
Speaker 1: happy average balls like one eight, and he he can
Speaker 1: steal basic at least he can play the field adequately enough.
Speaker 1: Labor Man with the with the glove, DJ with the
Speaker 1: glove last night, I judge with the glove last night.
Speaker 1: Defense was phenomenal this year series long, everybot push the
Speaker 1: right buttons, which is kind of crazy. I feel like
Speaker 1: we have to stop talking about baseball. I don't have
Speaker 1: to do anything we want. We do whatever we want. Um.
Speaker 1: I thought like, though, it was nuts that he took
Speaker 1: out of you after one batter. I thought out of
Speaker 1: you knows that I like murder him. That's not the
Speaker 1: first time he's done that this series. No, it's not.
Speaker 1: It was equally crazy the first time too. Is he
Speaker 1: taking a page out of Joe Girardi's book? Huh, Finder,
Speaker 1: here's a problem. And any of the other relievers got bombed.
Speaker 1: He was screwed. He didn't know when he left. And
Speaker 1: cecilies are good lions left love those guys that less
Speaker 1: off to the next series then Eric, Yeah, he's going
Speaker 1: because of that. I really didn't watch anyone that night football,
Speaker 1: and I got a text at mab Brito on that
Speaker 1: bread is eighty three yard run. So and then I
Speaker 1: turned to it, so, I mean his first runt of
Speaker 1: the games, and I saw Baker maybe'll get sacked a
Speaker 1: couple of times and were back the Yankees and the
Speaker 1: board Niners of a million points. He's like, all right,
Speaker 1: don't watch this. Yeah, the Browns are a complete disaster
Speaker 1: right now. Outside of Nick Chubb, who still managed to
Speaker 1: run for over five yards per carry against a very
Speaker 1: good San Francisco forty Niners defense, Baker Mayfield, under pressure
Speaker 1: all night long, was sacked four times. Joey Bosa all
Speaker 1: up in his face. Biker loved the trash talk from
Speaker 1: Joey Bosa as well. But ultimately, this Brown's offense is
Speaker 1: broken right now. Offensive line is not good, can't get
Speaker 1: the ball in the hands of his playmakers. Odell Beckham
Speaker 1: another dud, two receptions twenty seven yards. Jarvis Landry really
Speaker 1: the only person who showed up in the past game
Speaker 1: four catches for seventy five yards. But this Browns team
Speaker 1: is in disarray right now. Freddie Kitchens, man, you gotta
Speaker 1: swallow your pride. You gotta handover play calling duties to
Speaker 1: Todd Monkein. Monka did a great job last year with
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Bucks. You know, with a team that
Speaker 1: it was really not all that talented either. You know,
Speaker 1: he got the most out of Jameis Winston. That offensive
Speaker 1: line for Tampa Bay was not a great one last
Speaker 1: year either, but they can pass the freaking ball last year,
Speaker 1: and you know, I think the only chance that this
Speaker 1: Brown's offense has to kind of meet their potential is
Speaker 1: turned the play calling duties over to Todd Monket. But frankly,
Speaker 1: I just don't think that. I don't think that Freddy
Speaker 1: Kitchens is gonna be able to swallow his pride and
Speaker 1: make that happen on the other side of the ball.
Speaker 1: I was talking about this downstairs with a couple of guys.
Speaker 1: The San Francisco forty Niners actually have a recipe for
Speaker 1: success right now. If you look at this team, their
Speaker 1: offensive line has played amazing so far this year. Entering
Speaker 1: this game, they were number one in of Football Outsiders
Speaker 1: run blocking Analytical tools, which means, you know, obviously they
Speaker 1: showed that off last night. Matt Brina Levin carries a
Speaker 1: hundred fourteen yards a touchdown. Tevin Coleman first game back,
Speaker 1: throw this guy right back in the mix. Sixteen carries
Speaker 1: nineties seven yards and another touchdown there as well. Matt
Speaker 1: Brina added a receiving touchdown. This team can run the football.
Speaker 1: They have a really strong defensive line, they're strong against
Speaker 1: the run. Their secondary, I think it's solid. They have
Speaker 1: that veteran anchor in Richard Sherman as well. This San
Speaker 1: Francisco forty Niners team is a really, really dangerous team.
Speaker 1: And you have a quarterback that I believe can make
Speaker 1: plays when asked to do so in Jimmy Garoppolo. You know,
Speaker 1: maybe he's not, you know, one of the best in
Speaker 1: the league. Sorry, venture I know you're downstairs, Gucci Garoppolo enough,
Speaker 1: but I think that he can make enough plays where
Speaker 1: you know, when they need him to actually make a play.
Speaker 1: It's not just one of these smash mouth football teams
Speaker 1: like the Jets, for example, from ten years ago, where
Speaker 1: you know they needed Santis to make plays and ultimately
Speaker 1: he couldn't do it. There is a team that can
Speaker 1: run the football, they can play good defense, and Jimmy
Speaker 1: Garoppolo is an adequate, adequate quarterback, so very dangerous San
Speaker 1: Francisco forty Niner team. Cleveland Browns gotta try and figure
Speaker 1: this out this weekend forty Niners and Los Angeles Rams. Good.
Speaker 1: We'll see that Cleveland Browns can get back on track.
Speaker 1: We'll take a break here. When do we come back?
Speaker 1: We'll dive into this week's waiver wire. It's fantasy BFFs
Speaker 1: here on sports Trading. Daily Rhodo dot Com learned from
Speaker 1: the game's best DFS players. We don't just give you
Speaker 1: premier advice. We play every day, all major sports, all
Speaker 1: year round. We never stopped industry leading DFS tools and
Speaker 1: custom projections, and now the Daily Rodo dot Com optimized
Speaker 1: in minutes, building optimized line up for cast games and
Speaker 1: turneys learned from the game's best DFS players joined Daily
Speaker 1: Rodo dot Com. All right, Bay, let's jump into this
Speaker 1: week's waiver wire. As we said yesterday, pretty barn, pretty
Speaker 1: baron in general, Well, I guess before I do, I
Speaker 1: do want to, you gotta do it a little bit.
Speaker 1: Just a few moments ago he spent on Baker of
Speaker 1: course in Cleveland, but San Francisco's running game. Just for
Speaker 1: a few moments here there was a four headed backfield
Speaker 1: that last night was three with Jeff Wilson Jr. Despite
Speaker 1: being a fantastic goal line presence inactive last night. The
Speaker 1: going into the game, the over under for yards for
Speaker 1: each running back was like fifty, like forty five for Brita,
Speaker 1: thirty five or Coleman for Moster. All three went over. Obviously,
Speaker 1: most of Brida's yardage comes on that long run. How
Speaker 1: do you see this backup playing out going forward? I
Speaker 1: think that Matt, Brita and Tevin Coleman are probably gonna
Speaker 1: combine for eighty percent of their production, and then Raheem
Speaker 1: Moster will get mixed in a little bit. Maybe just
Speaker 1: give these guys a break, maybe give him a series
Speaker 1: here or there. But I do think that we're looking at,
Speaker 1: you know, probably a pretty even split between Brita and Coleman.
Speaker 1: Um let's say twelve to fourteen touches per game, and
Speaker 1: then maybe a few mix in there for Rheemoster. I
Speaker 1: tweeted this out last night. Drink their usage from this game.
Speaker 1: Matt Brida lad the team with twenty six snaps, eleven carries,
Speaker 1: had three or set fourteen total touches, obviously had the
Speaker 1: two total touchdowns as well. Tevin Coleman snaps so just
Speaker 1: one less snap than Brita had sixteen carries, so actually
Speaker 1: touched the ball more than Matt Brita ninety seven yards
Speaker 1: for a touchdown where he most are played seventeen offensive snaps,
Speaker 1: so a little bit more than I probably would expect
Speaker 1: moving forward. But he only had seven carries for thirty
Speaker 1: four yards. So I think we're looking at most of
Speaker 1: the time it's gonna be Brita and Coleman with you know,
Speaker 1: maybe when these guys need a break, he moster is
Speaker 1: mixing there. I think most are can probably be dropped
Speaker 1: in mostly. Was there any rhyme or reason to how
Speaker 1: they deployed Britta and Coleman, Not that I saw, I
Speaker 1: might have just it might have just been a drive,
Speaker 1: you know, one drive for this guy, one drive for
Speaker 1: the other guy. I still feel like Coleman was used
Speaker 1: more in the red zone, um, but I would have
Speaker 1: to I don't know if the red zone numbers from
Speaker 1: yesterday came out yet for San Francisco, but it seemed
Speaker 1: to me like Keevin Coleman was used more in the
Speaker 1: red zone, which is more of that Jeff Wilson role. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then Matt Brita did line up, you know on
Speaker 1: that receiving touchdown, which was inside the red zone, but
Speaker 1: ultimately he ran a route out of the back he
Speaker 1: wasn't in there and run the football. Uh So maybe
Speaker 1: they do view him as a better pass catcher of
Speaker 1: the two. Uh So, Ultimately it was on a third
Speaker 1: down play and he caught it, receiving touchdown. Um. But
Speaker 1: I do think it's gonna be pretty even. Maybe Tevin Coleman,
Speaker 1: because he's the bigger body, gets more work in the
Speaker 1: red zone. All right, So Tevin Coleman arrow probably pointing off,
Speaker 1: you have to choose one guy going forward? Would you
Speaker 1: rather have Tevin Coleman? M I would take and that's
Speaker 1: a close one. I would go with Tevin Coleman. I'll
Speaker 1: take Tevin Coleman because that offensive line of San Francisco
Speaker 1: is just much better than where the Los Angeles Chargers
Speaker 1: are at. The Charges have dealt with all offensive line issues. UM,
Speaker 1: injuries to their offensive line as well. Uh They've dealt
Speaker 1: with injuries everywhere. But ultimately, I think that once Melvin
Speaker 1: Gordon starts to get going, while Eckler is going to
Speaker 1: see some work in the past game, he only had
Speaker 1: what three carries this week, you know, and that's only
Speaker 1: with Melvin Gordon's first game back. Uh, Tevin Coleman here,
Speaker 1: I do think it's gonna be in the mix for
Speaker 1: you know, twelve to fifteen touch super game behind one
Speaker 1: of the best run blocking offensive lines in the NFL
Speaker 1: on a team that wants to run the football as well.
Speaker 1: So it's close, but I'll take Tivin Coleman. I think Coleman, Brita,
Speaker 1: and Austin Ekela are all in that mixes like low
Speaker 1: end RB two's high end flex options. Okay, so there
Speaker 1: you go. That's what you're looking at, a high end
Speaker 1: flex option, a r B two. Let's look at some
Speaker 1: let's look at the waiver wire, Frank for some other
Speaker 1: high end flex or widers or RB two's. Are there
Speaker 1: any out there this week? Yeah, I mean, hold your nose.
Speaker 1: It's not a great list, but ultimately, looking at Adrian
Speaker 1: Peterson and Kenyan Drake, it is disgusting. It is very
Speaker 1: bad out here. I've seen other people tweeting about this
Speaker 1: as well, how bad the waiver wire is this week.
Speaker 1: When it comes to running backs. There's a few other
Speaker 1: names that all mentioned, but ultimately we avoided big injuries
Speaker 1: this week outside of Wayne Gallman. Uh we don't know.
Speaker 1: It doesn't look like he's gonna be good to play.
Speaker 1: Obviously he's in concussion protocol. Tay Kwon Barkley, it doesn't
Speaker 1: look like he's gonna play either, So shout out to you, Greggy.
Speaker 1: You were right about that all long. You expected him
Speaker 1: to be back in week seven. He has ample amount
Speaker 1: of time to get ready. Uh and in a game
Speaker 1: where they are nearly seventeen point underdogs. I don't know
Speaker 1: that it makes sense to russ a Kwon Barkley out there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, we're not dealing with a lot of injuries,
Speaker 1: so we have to look at players who have really
Speaker 1: good matchups who might be available on the waiver wire.
Speaker 1: And yes, it is disgusting Adrian Peterson going up against
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins with their new interim head coach taking
Speaker 1: over Bill Callahan. He's been an offensive line coach in
Speaker 1: his career. I believe he was the assistant head coach
Speaker 1: and offensive line coach for Washington this year as well.
Speaker 1: Has already come out and said we need to hashtag
Speaker 1: established the run exactly what we want to hear in
Speaker 1: the year two thousand and nineteen. But I think it
Speaker 1: makes sense based on the quarterback play that they've had
Speaker 1: so far, from case Keenom to Colt McCoy to Dwayne Haskins.
Speaker 1: It makes sense for them to maybe run Adrian Peterson
Speaker 1: and Chris Thompson more this week and ultimately. The Dolphins
Speaker 1: have allowed nine total touchdowns to running backs this season,
Speaker 1: that is tied for the most in the NFL. They
Speaker 1: had a bye week, they played one less game than
Speaker 1: most of the teams in the NFL, and have still
Speaker 1: allowed the most total touchdowns to running back so far
Speaker 1: this season. Again, that number is nine. They're allowing four
Speaker 1: point seven seven yards per carry to opposing running backs
Speaker 1: and that is the seventh most in the NFL. So
Speaker 1: I think that Adrian Peterson in a game where Washington
Speaker 1: has favored, can actually see around fifteen carries and could
Speaker 1: have some success. Really, this is just a desperation play.
Speaker 1: If you're if you have David Montgomery on to buy,
Speaker 1: if you know Josh Jacob's on a bye and the
Speaker 1: other one is Kenyan Drake on the other side of
Speaker 1: the field. Greg, I'm really hoping that Miami Dolphins figured
Speaker 1: out during the buy that Calon Blage is a very
Speaker 1: bad player. We recreated him, you know, running around and
Speaker 1: when a ball came his way, he ducked out of
Speaker 1: the way of the of said ball. So doesn't want
Speaker 1: to catch the ball. Not a good pass catcher. Averaging
Speaker 1: under two yards per carry, Kenyan Drake has accounted for
Speaker 1: fiftent of the Dolphins targets so far this year. You know, uh,
Speaker 1: he's averaging under four yards per carry as well, but
Speaker 1: you know it's still better than one point five yards
Speaker 1: per carry for callon Blage and Washington just allowed two
Speaker 1: thirty seven total yards, ten receptions, and to total touchdowns
Speaker 1: so Patriots running backs a week ago. So I don't
Speaker 1: think this is a great defense. I think Kenyan Drake
Speaker 1: could actually have some success here. Who would you rather
Speaker 1: start this week? Adrian Peterson or Carlos Hyde. I haven't
Speaker 1: done ranking. You see that Carlos Hide is going up
Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs. Yeah, I'll take Carlos side, okay,
Speaker 1: because I thought I thought it carries twenty carries a
Speaker 1: week ago. The Kansas City Chiefs are obviously vulnerable against
Speaker 1: the run. I think the Houston Texans are gonna want
Speaker 1: to keep the Chiefs offense off the field. The way
Speaker 1: you do that is you run the football. We just
Speaker 1: saw him all in. Mac has success and obviously just
Speaker 1: a much better offense overall for the Houston Texans in Washington,
Speaker 1: So I would take Carlo side. Speaking of the Kansas
Speaker 1: City Chiefs, that's obviously a team that Carlos Hide played
Speaker 1: for briefly during the summer game, and one of the
Speaker 1: guys that he helped replace was Kareem Hunt. Creem Mollins
Speaker 1: about own, he's not coming back till a round week
Speaker 1: ten or so. He's somebody that you're looking to add
Speaker 1: right now. Frank, how come because I think we're just
Speaker 1: getting closer and closer we get to that week ten,
Speaker 1: Mark Um, the more he's going to be added. And
Speaker 1: he's still owned in just fort of Yahoo leagues right now.
Speaker 1: He just needs to be added. If you are a
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb owner. I actually added him last week in
Speaker 1: a league where I was a Nick Chubb owner. You
Speaker 1: just have to own him because if anything were to
Speaker 1: happen to Chubb, Kareem Hunt instantly vaults up to high
Speaker 1: end RB two territory, low end RB one territory. They
Speaker 1: don't really have a lot of quality depth on the roster.
Speaker 1: You know, it's been Dontrelle Hilliard, de Ernest Johnson. Um.
Speaker 1: We know that Kareem Hunt has the talent. He's been
Speaker 1: successful at the NFL level already, and they took a
Speaker 1: pr hit in order to sign Kareem Hunt, which means
Speaker 1: that he at least have a role on this team.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he's gonna be a flex option
Speaker 1: as long as Nick Chubb is healthy, but he's going
Speaker 1: to be one of the most valuable handcuffs in fantasy
Speaker 1: football once he does return. I think now is the
Speaker 1: time to Adam Gregg. I agree with that Nick cho
Speaker 1: has been way too effective and way too good for
Speaker 1: this team that he's just gonna take a backseat. I
Speaker 1: don't think he does. Green Hunt is going to have
Speaker 1: a role like you mentioned, Frank, and maybe that's how
Speaker 1: they get this all offense going, Greg. You know, maybe
Speaker 1: it's more running between both Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt.
Speaker 1: You know, maybe they get Kareem Hunt involved more as
Speaker 1: a ask cancer. You know the way that other teams
Speaker 1: are deploying to running backs on the field as once.
Speaker 1: We've seen Chicago Bears do that. Where David Montgomery is
Speaker 1: on the field, Three Cohen is also on the field
Speaker 1: and where they have a dual running back system where
Speaker 1: one guy can run the football, one guy can catch
Speaker 1: the football. So maybe they kind of, you know, get
Speaker 1: creative with this Cleveland Browns offense, maybe the way that
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers were doing it a couple of weeks ago. Obviously,
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield, you know, you draft this guy with the
Speaker 1: number one overall pick, You're expecting more out of him,
Speaker 1: and eventually we hope that he develops. It's not happening
Speaker 1: right now. But the way that the Pittsburgh Steelers used
Speaker 1: to running backs where they ransom wildcat and they got creative,
Speaker 1: maybe that's the answer for the Cleveland Browns ultimately. You know,
Speaker 1: even if Kareem han is only getting five to seven
Speaker 1: touches per game, with Nick Chubb healthy, he will be
Speaker 1: one of the most valuable handcuffs in fantasy football. Now
Speaker 1: other running backs that could be out there if you're desperate.
Speaker 1: John Hileman for the New York Giants. Obviously, it's a
Speaker 1: tough spot for New England, their double digit underdogs in
Speaker 1: New England on Thursday Night, But Stagon Bark is not
Speaker 1: gonna play win. Goland's not gonna I don't even know
Speaker 1: that John Hillman's in the next guy out like Elijah Penny.
Speaker 1: Maybe the guy that gets the most carries you're absolutely desperate.
Speaker 1: Maybe one of those guys potentially. Um. I also think
Speaker 1: Benny Snell. We know Jalen Samuel's out for a month
Speaker 1: due to a knee injury. There, so dye Benny Snell
Speaker 1: takes on something that wild cabin that's not really his
Speaker 1: game either. I think you'll just see more James Conner
Speaker 1: and then listen, Jase Edmons shouldn't be owen. David Johnson
Speaker 1: has his back injury and he has not been cleared yet,
Speaker 1: so Jas Edmonds the number one guy on this list. Yeah,
Speaker 1: David Johnson not a model of health. You know, he's
Speaker 1: had the risk injuries in the past as well. So yeah,
Speaker 1: if you're a DJ owner, make sure you own Chase
Speaker 1: Edmonds as well. We'll continue on the waiver wire with
Speaker 1: different positions and we'll do that next daily. Rhodo dot

Speaker 1: restrictions apply to website for details. Chase Edmunds rank before
Speaker 1: we move on, He's gonna be everywhere. He's a monstrous
Speaker 1: mistake if he's not Chase Edmonds. Yeah, I mean everything
Speaker 1: that's going on with David Johnson. He's dealing with this
Speaker 1: back issue he we saw the wrist flare up earlier
Speaker 1: in the season as well. You know, he got tackled
Speaker 1: the defensive lineman fell on top of him. Uh, it's
Speaker 1: a surgically repaired risk as well. And Chase Edmonds he
Speaker 1: had a long touchdown last week as well. He's explosive.
Speaker 1: And while the Arizona Cardinals offense is not a good one,
Speaker 1: Gregg and their offensive line is certainly not great either.
Speaker 1: They run so many plays. They ran the fourth most
Speaker 1: play offensive places so far this season, So just based
Speaker 1: on volume alone, there would be huge value for Chase Edmonds.
Speaker 1: If something were to happen to David Johnson. It's a
Speaker 1: back injury for David Johnson. He was in and out
Speaker 1: of late later the game. He didn't play on the
Speaker 1: last drive, so he was in there, but he has
Speaker 1: not been cleared for this. Some day he has not.
Speaker 1: It's a It's definitely something to pay attention to play
Speaker 1: attention to the practice reports and everything else that's going
Speaker 1: on with David Johnson. Did play his full compliment of
Speaker 1: snaps though, so you know, maybe it was just like
Speaker 1: the adrenaline was going and then afterwards tightened up on
Speaker 1: him a little bit. But yeah, definitely pay attention to
Speaker 1: David Johnson because there is massive fantasy implications based on
Speaker 1: his health. Obviously, will move on to Frank to the
Speaker 1: wide receiver position. I want to actually specifically go to
Speaker 1: the state of Florida where the question that fantasy owners
Speaker 1: have this week Parker Preston Williams. Are you mocking me?
Speaker 1: Because I always try to talk about these Dolphins wide receivers.
Speaker 1: But ultimately it's a good matchup. Again, Look, I understand
Speaker 1: it's two terrible teams, Washington going up against Miami. Somebody's
Speaker 1: gotta win this game. They might both just be trying
Speaker 1: to lose. But ultimately, the last time we saw Devontae Parker,
Speaker 1: he had a four for seventy and one touchdown line.
Speaker 1: With Josh Rosen as his quarterback. He's accounted for eighteen
Speaker 1: percent of their targets, share thirty five percent of their
Speaker 1: air yards, a twenty point three average depth of targets,
Speaker 1: so he's being targeted down the field. He's seeing a
Speaker 1: lot of those you know, long pass play targets. He's
Speaker 1: a big body for first round pick finally getting an
Speaker 1: opportunity to play, and it's a really good matchup against
Speaker 1: this Washington secondary it's a brutal defense, but specifically their
Speaker 1: secondary has not showed up. Josh Norman is a ghost
Speaker 1: of his former self. They're allowing the second most fantasy
Speaker 1: points to opposing wide receiver. Has just got ripped by
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, just got ripped by Taylor Gabriel a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago as well, gave up three touchdowns to him.
Speaker 1: So if you are in a pinch where you have
Speaker 1: people who are on a buy where you've had Bills
Speaker 1: wide receivers or maybe an Allen Robinson, uh, and you
Speaker 1: need someone to fill in, I think Devanta Parker and
Speaker 1: Preston Williams. Preston Williams over the last two games with
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen as the quarterback has nineteen targets and they
Speaker 1: were backups together, and we talked about this a lot
Speaker 1: for fantasy football. When these guys are second string players together,
Speaker 1: they develop a connection, a rapport, and we've seen even
Speaker 1: going back to preseason games that Josh Rosen and Preston
Speaker 1: Williams do have that connection, uh, and we're seeing it
Speaker 1: kind of play out the past couple of weeks as well.
Speaker 1: So I think Devantay Parker and Preston Williams are in play.
Speaker 1: As you know, low end wide receiver threes bye week
Speaker 1: replacements in Week six. That's what most of these guys
Speaker 1: are this week on the waiver wire, probably besides one,
Speaker 1: maybe two of them. Um On on Tap we talked
Speaker 1: about a lot last week stepping in for John Ross
Speaker 1: AJ Green. You have said repeatedly on our program, Frank,
Speaker 1: you do not expect John A. J. Green to ever
Speaker 1: play another snap where the Cincinnati Bengals on Tap we
Speaker 1: talked play on yesterday's show. He's somebody that I think
Speaker 1: can help you long term. He's probably the number one
Speaker 1: AD at the wide receiver position this week. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think it's between Audent A and D. D. Westbrook. If
Speaker 1: D D. Westbrook is available in your league. I believe
Speaker 1: he's owned in fifty eight percent of YAHOO league, so
Speaker 1: I usually use sixty percent as the cut off for me.
Speaker 1: So maybe you play in a ten team league or
Speaker 1: a shallower a twelve team league where D. D. Westbrook
Speaker 1: is available. He's actually been pretty consistent. He's had at
Speaker 1: least five catches in every game but one this year.
Speaker 1: Of the targets share is actually the same amount as
Speaker 1: DJ Charks so D D. Westbrook not scoring the touchdowns
Speaker 1: like DJ Chark is, but still seeing the exact same
Speaker 1: amount of targets so far this season. And it's a
Speaker 1: really really good matchup going up against p J. Williams
Speaker 1: in the slot against the New Orleans Saints in Week six.
Speaker 1: So I like the way that targets have been trending
Speaker 1: for D. D. Westbrook, and I like the matchup overall
Speaker 1: as well. But Audentate might have more long term value. Again,
Speaker 1: it's a big body. He's been used in the red zone.
Speaker 1: The targets have been there for him the past couple
Speaker 1: of weeks. It's basically just been Tyler Boyd and him
Speaker 1: in the past game. This defense is not good, so
Speaker 1: they're likely playing from behind a lot. There were a
Speaker 1: lot of three wide receiver sets in the Zach Taylor offense.
Speaker 1: I don't think A. J. Green plays another game with
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals, and they're going up against the Baltimore
Speaker 1: Ravens in Week six as eleven point underdogs. The Ravens
Speaker 1: secondary has not looked great the past couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: They're beat up. Tony Jefferson, their starting safety just went
Speaker 1: down for the season as well. So I think Audent
Speaker 1: Tate is a sneaky play for this week and probably
Speaker 1: has more long term upside than D. D. Westbrook the
Speaker 1: rest of the season, as well as a starting wide
Speaker 1: receiver of the Cincinnati Bengals. I agree on Audate should
Speaker 1: be somebody that he went. You go out. How much
Speaker 1: would you spend? It depends how desperate you are for
Speaker 1: wide receiver, Probably between eight and ten percent. If you
Speaker 1: really need one, you can go over ten percent, you
Speaker 1: get into the twelve percent range. Last week, I had
Speaker 1: an NFC league where I spent over twenty percent of
Speaker 1: my fab on Audent tape. But I really really needed him,
Speaker 1: was desperate for a wide receiver a league where I
Speaker 1: owned Dvante Adams. I knew I wasn't gonna have him,
Speaker 1: So ultimately it comes out to how desperate you really are.
Speaker 1: But I'm probably looking at you know that eight to
Speaker 1: twelve percent range, probably a little bit lower, more like
Speaker 1: six to eight percent, I think, for I know it's
Speaker 1: the same thing to you. Last week, obviously he scored
Speaker 1: a touchdown, but the matchup for Cincinnati was as good
Speaker 1: as it gets last week against Arizona. I'd like to
Speaker 1: see him against the better defense, which we will against Baltimore.
Speaker 1: Do you think who do you think has more long
Speaker 1: term upside? Audentate or d. D. Westberk Because there is
Speaker 1: a chance that Nick Foles is healthy takes back over
Speaker 1: that starting quarterback job, and that's part of the reason
Speaker 1: why we love d. D. Westbrook coming into the season. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it's a fair question. I think probably I
Speaker 1: stand by what you said. Okay, other desperation plays this week.
Speaker 1: I go back to Thursday Night football. Want to go
Speaker 1: back to the New York Giants, where Darius Layton is
Speaker 1: gonna have a big role for New York this week.
Speaker 1: Sterley Shepherd is not gonna play with a concussion. Evan
Speaker 1: Ingram may not play as well on Thursday Night. You're
Speaker 1: not gonna get stake on Barko, You're not gonna get
Speaker 1: Wayne Golan's or it's the next man up. Golden Tate's
Speaker 1: going to have a take on all the responsibility that
Speaker 1: he can. You know, it's a really tough match with
Speaker 1: New England. But we've seen Darius Slayton have a rapport
Speaker 1: with Daniel Jones here. They've been talking about it since
Speaker 1: training camp. He's gotten more snaps. That's gonna continue. He's
Speaker 1: not owned pretty much anywhere. I think he's take a
Speaker 1: shot on Darius Slayton. Let's just get this straight first
Speaker 1: and foremost, Greig, Next man up. That's the Yankees motto.
Speaker 1: That's the New York not in New York Channel, it's
Speaker 1: literally every team in every sports modo. But it has
Speaker 1: been the Yankees. I mean, based on everyone that they
Speaker 1: lost this here, come on, it's every team and everything.
Speaker 1: Next ban up. Now, get standing off the field. Let's
Speaker 1: get Cameron maybe on the field, but waiting on baseball again,
Speaker 1: because that is actually the model that they've been running,
Speaker 1: the motteo that every team ever has. Every year they
Speaker 1: had a record for the most players placed on the
Speaker 1: i L and MLB history. Sure, if any team can
Speaker 1: use it, it's in But like any NFL team loses
Speaker 1: the billion players. Yeah, but it's relevant right now, It's
Speaker 1: relevant every team. The Giants, entire team is hurt. Let's
Speaker 1: go next man up. Here's here's the honest truth. You
Speaker 1: don't want the next man up when it comes to
Speaker 1: the New York Giants. Because the New England Patriots are
Speaker 1: the best defense in football right now. They are allowing
Speaker 1: the fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, the fewest fantasy
Speaker 1: points to opposing wide receivers, the second fewest fantasy points
Speaker 1: to opposing running backs, and the second fewest fantasy points
Speaker 1: to opposing tight ends. I understand they haven't faced many
Speaker 1: good teams so far. Well, guess what the Giants are.
Speaker 1: They're not a good team. I mean, they're sixteen and
Speaker 1: a half point underdogs in this game for a reason.
Speaker 1: I understand. Darius Slayton just had a four for sixty
Speaker 1: two and one line last week against the Minnesota Vikings,
Speaker 1: and I believe that what we said about Josh Rosen
Speaker 1: and Preston Williams is similar to Daniel Jones. Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: was working at as the backup, so was Darius Slayton.
Speaker 1: Now they have a report we're seeing that come to
Speaker 1: fruition on the field. But ultimately this is one of
Speaker 1: the best, if not the best secondaries in the entire NFL.
Speaker 1: I am not starting anybody on the New York Giants
Speaker 1: offense this week against the New England Patriots. That includes
Speaker 1: Golden take Gregg and the other wide receiver is worth
Speaker 1: talking about. Frank I did want to bring up and
Speaker 1: you can laugh at me if you want it. Greg.
Speaker 1: But Duke Williams, the Duke, former CFL star, Yeah, that's right,
Speaker 1: the Canadian Football League, big body, six ft three, And
Speaker 1: I believe the reason why the Buffalo Bills were okay
Speaker 1: trading is a Jones last night to the Oakland Raiders
Speaker 1: for a fifth round pick is because they really liked
Speaker 1: this kid, Duke Williams. So he's a big body. Just
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown in the red zone this past week
Speaker 1: against the Tennessee Titans, and I think coming out of
Speaker 1: the bye, he's gonna start on the outside alongside John
Speaker 1: Brown with Cole Beasley in the slot. There is more
Speaker 1: of a deeper league ad maybe four teen teams are deeper,
Speaker 1: or if you're playing in NFFC format where there's eight
Speaker 1: bench spots, deeper PPR leagues. I'm looking at Duke Williams.
Speaker 1: You do have to hold them because of the bye.
Speaker 1: And then the other one is Byron Pringle. You know,
Speaker 1: once you pop, you can't stop. When it comes to
Speaker 1: Byron Pringle, but he is a darling of the NFL
Speaker 1: scouting Twitter. I spoke about this a little bit yesterday.
Speaker 1: Apparently really really good route runner, a lot to like
Speaker 1: about him, very athletic, good hands as well. We saw
Speaker 1: that all on Sunday Night football against the Indianapolis Colts.
Speaker 1: And we don't know as of now if Tyreek Hill
Speaker 1: is going to be back, and we don't know what
Speaker 1: the status of Sammy Watkins is as well. So if
Speaker 1: you need help at the wide receiver position, if you
Speaker 1: own Tyreek Hill, or if you or if you own
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins, and you just kind of want to cover yourself,
Speaker 1: and Byron Pringle could be in the mix, because, as
Speaker 1: we've said before, when it comes to Mikole Hardman and
Speaker 1: de Marcus Robinson, greg you just want as much exposure
Speaker 1: to this Kansas City Chiefs offense as you possibly can.
Speaker 1: And they clearly like him because his first game where
Speaker 1: you know, he was kind of thrust into action, he
Speaker 1: played more snaps than Mikole Hardman already, So it must
Speaker 1: say that must mean they like him. That says something
Speaker 1: about Byron Pringles. So I think in deeper leagues, those
Speaker 1: are two names that you can look at. Pringle and
Speaker 1: Duke Williams. Yeah, I'm not doing the Duke Williams thing
Speaker 1: for me like this has I don't know much about
Speaker 1: him and then it Dawson all over where people obsessed
Speaker 1: over the metrics and don't realize as that the metrics
Speaker 1: aren't even great. I was looking at it downstairs Adventure.
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy's player profile like a four point
Speaker 1: seven forty. He's just a really big body that can
Speaker 1: be used in reading in the red zone. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just more of a deeper league play. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: not I'm not interesting in the Duke Williams thing personally
Speaker 1: because the Jones wasn't doing anything. This guy's not gonna
Speaker 1: do anything either. You're probably right, man, I just thought
Speaker 1: I would throw it out there. Yeah, John Brown seeing
Speaker 1: a lot of the target chairs as is coldbas Okay,
Speaker 1: So we'll come back from the break. We gotta hit
Speaker 1: on quarterbacks, specifically, if you're missing a quarterback due to
Speaker 1: a bye this week, like Josh Allen super Flex, I
Speaker 1: know you're struggling. Good news for you, Kyle Alan Owners
Speaker 1: that's me. Cam Newton already ruled out for this week
Speaker 1: as well. Carolina goes to London they played Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: I would expect Cam Newton to return after the bye
Speaker 1: after the London game. I think that makes a lot
Speaker 1: of sense. I saw today that Cam Newton actually showed
Speaker 1: up to practice without the walking boots, so he's clearly progressing. No,
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen hasn't let the world on fire, but he's
Speaker 1: done enough to help them win games. Both he and
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater are six and o combined for the past
Speaker 1: three weeks. Uh, you know, filling in for their respective starter.
Speaker 1: But you're probably right. You got the London game this week,
Speaker 1: the bye next week. Ham Newton probably back after that. Honestly,
Speaker 1: I don't even know if that's a good thing. We'll
Speaker 1: tell you some more quarterbacks that are available and starting
Speaker 1: this week hit on the tight ends to stick around.
Speaker 1: Yas wraps up right after this. Daily Rodo dot Com
Speaker 1: learned from the game's best DFS players. We don't just
Speaker 1: give you premier advice. We play every day, all major sports,
Speaker 1: all year round. We never stopped industry leading DFS tools
Speaker 1: and custom projections, and now the Daily Rodo dot Com
Speaker 1: optimize that in minutes, building optimized line up for cast
Speaker 1: games and turneys. Learned from the game's best DFS players
Speaker 1: joined Daily Rodo dot Com. I thought I was crazy,
Speaker 1: can't hear anything in my ear and I was just
Speaker 1: gonna let you go for as long as you possibly could.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Right back here at the BFx, he's Frank,
Speaker 1: I'm greg out of quarterbacks and tight ends to get
Speaker 1: to here, and we mentioned Kyle Allen's gonna get the
Speaker 1: start once again, and this time in London against Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: That was the game, remember against Tampa Bay on Thursday
Speaker 1: Football earlier this season that we realized how injured Cam
Speaker 1: Newton was and how bad that he was. But well,
Speaker 1: Cam Newton is still out. Doesn't mean all the quarterbacks
Speaker 1: that have been out aren't returning. Sam Donald officially making
Speaker 1: his return or the New York Jets this week because
Speaker 1: an angry Dallas team, Franky, I can Sam Donald wake
Speaker 1: up the Jets? I think it can't be worse than
Speaker 1: Luke Fowk, or at least I'm hoping he can not,
Speaker 1: even for the sake of the Jets or being a
Speaker 1: fan of the team, just for the sake of everybody's
Speaker 1: fantasy value that is involved the New York Jets right now,
Speaker 1: from Jamison Crowder to Robbie Anderson to Levian Bell and
Speaker 1: now Chris Herndon as well, who we will talk about,
Speaker 1: not just talk about him, right now. Look, Chris Herndon
Speaker 1: last year tight end fifteen overall as a rookie. You
Speaker 1: don't normally see rookie tight ends show up that well,
Speaker 1: but he was ninth among tight ends in yards per catch.
Speaker 1: He was seventh in among tight ends in yards per
Speaker 1: target as well. So he made plays. He's explosive, and
Speaker 1: they've had Ryan Griffin on the field a lot this
Speaker 1: year running routes, and I think Chris Herndon just fits
Speaker 1: into that seamlessly. On a team that is start for talent,
Speaker 1: they need help on the offensive side of the football.
Speaker 1: They need help everywhere, but I think Chris Herndon could
Speaker 1: be a big boost for them. I don't know that
Speaker 1: it happens necessarily right away this week for Sam Donald,
Speaker 1: because I still do you know, I respect the Cowboys
Speaker 1: secondary while uh, you know, they haven't showed up as
Speaker 1: as much as we had hoped ultimately coming into the season.
Speaker 1: But I do think that the schedule softens up a
Speaker 1: lot for the new for the New York Jets, and
Speaker 1: obviously that's gonna help. Saying Donald's gonna help all the
Speaker 1: weapons involved here. Um So, if he was dropped in
Speaker 1: your league, you need a second quarterback, or you're just
Speaker 1: looking for someone I can streaming good matchups moving forward.
Speaker 1: Maybe not this week, but actually that the schedule does
Speaker 1: lighten up a lot for the New York Jets. Uh.
Speaker 1: Any other quarterbacks you want to talk about in terms
Speaker 1: of streaming, Like we we have Gardner Minshew on the
Speaker 1: list you mentioned Kyle Allen. The Bucks have allowed over
Speaker 1: three passing yards four straight weeks. It seems like, you know,
Speaker 1: teams are starting to pick on their secondary once again.
Speaker 1: They've been really good against the run, but not great
Speaker 1: against the past. So I do think you know Kyle
Speaker 1: Allen as a sneaky stream as well. But I do
Speaker 1: like Gardner Minshew and Kirk Cousins ahead of both Donald
Speaker 1: and Kyle Allen this week. Yeah, I think so too.
Speaker 1: I like I like Gardner Minshew, I like Kirk Cousins
Speaker 1: both in the opportunity, both in spots to stream. I
Speaker 1: do want to mention the Super Flex League devln Hodges.
Speaker 1: How would you spend on this guy two Bucks? I
Speaker 1: don't know how long he's going to be the quarterback.
Speaker 1: I don't really know what to expect from him. He
Speaker 1: went to Samford for college, not Stanford Stamford Uh, so,
Speaker 1: don't really know what to expect from this offense. We
Speaker 1: probably just see more James Conner overall. Maybe we see
Speaker 1: Benny Snell mixed in as well. Um, Hodges didn't look
Speaker 1: terrible last week. You know, he helped the Pittsburgh Steelers
Speaker 1: stay alive in that game, help them go to overtime
Speaker 1: against the Baltimore Ravens. But ultimately, and that is the
Speaker 1: Sunday night football game. So great for us we get
Speaker 1: to watch Devil and Hodges against the against the Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Chargers should be a lot of fun. But you know,
Speaker 1: the only way I'm picking this guy up is in
Speaker 1: a super flex league where I had Mason Rudolph starting,
Speaker 1: where I lost Ben Roethlisberger. You know, no more than
Speaker 1: two bucks. But ultimately, if you need a stream, Gardner
Speaker 1: Minshew going up against the New Orleans Saints, um min.
Speaker 1: She has been really consistent so far this yere. I
Speaker 1: know this was a stat from your boy Field Yates. Great,
Speaker 1: he told me about this QBS with sixteen plus Fantasy
Speaker 1: points in every game this season. There's only three at
Speaker 1: my homes, Gardner Minshew and Kyler Murray, so pretty exclusive
Speaker 1: company there. He's been consistent. Uh could get into a
Speaker 1: little bit of shootout with the Saints and Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna be able to run the
Speaker 1: football as effectively against this Eagles defense allowing just two
Speaker 1: point eight one yards per carried to opposing running backs,
Speaker 1: and they could be had through the air. A lot
Speaker 1: of injuries to the secondary of the Philadelphia Eagles, and
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins coming off his best game of the season.
Speaker 1: So I think Cousins and Minshew are your clear streamers
Speaker 1: this week. If you have a quarterback on a buy,
Speaker 1: let's go down to the tight end position. Frankie Evan
Speaker 1: Ingram may not play on Thursday night for the New
Speaker 1: York Giants. And it's funny because they got a question
Speaker 1: earlier saying, Hey, these three tight ends are out there
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire for me, what do I do?
Speaker 1: Gerald Everett, Chris Herndon, and Hunter Henry. Well, those are
Speaker 1: the three tight ends that are out there, mostly if
Speaker 1: people are interested in picking up Herndon, Henry and Gerald Everett.
Speaker 1: So I have to ask, how would you order these
Speaker 1: guys and how much would you spend on them? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not often that we see tight end is the
Speaker 1: best position on a week for the waiver wire. We're
Speaker 1: constantly trying to find tight ends to stream or pick
Speaker 1: up that have value moving forward, you know, long term value.
Speaker 1: But I think all three of these guys do. If
Speaker 1: I'm ranking them, it's weird because I would rank them
Speaker 1: differently for this week as I would for long term
Speaker 1: him for the season. So I have long term I
Speaker 1: would still rank un Sir Henry the highest of the group,
Speaker 1: then Chris Herndon, and then Gerald Everett. But for this week,
Speaker 1: I'm actually going to rank them in the complete opposite order.
Speaker 1: For this week. You know, Brandon Cooks still in concussion protocol.
Speaker 1: Gerald Everett over the past couple of weeks really involved
Speaker 1: in the game plan. He's been the tight end five
Speaker 1: and tight end one respectively. Over the past two weeks.
Speaker 1: Targets have gone up as well, even with Tyler Higbee back.
Speaker 1: There's more snaps being played for Gerald Everett, um more
Speaker 1: routes being run for Gerald Everett as well. And remember
Speaker 1: we were excited about this guy when Sean McVeigh took over.
Speaker 1: He drafted him. We thought that this was gonna be
Speaker 1: his Jordan read because if you remember Sean McVeigh came
Speaker 1: over from Washington's offense where they used Jordan Read a lot.
Speaker 1: It seems like that is finally coming to fruition. So
Speaker 1: I like the usage for Generald Everett right now this
Speaker 1: week and the fact that Brandon Cooks is in concussion protocol.
Speaker 1: Chris Herndon, you know, maybe he doesn't see his full
Speaker 1: compliment of snaps his first game back, but ultimately a
Speaker 1: pretty good matchup going up against the Dallas Cowboys. You know,
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham didn't do much, but we've and other tight
Speaker 1: ends have big games against the Cowboys so far this season,
Speaker 1: and Evan ram in Week one comes to mind. Chris
Speaker 1: Herndon could get right back into the mix, so I
Speaker 1: like him second most for this week. And then Hunter Henry.
Speaker 1: We don't know if he's gonna play yet. That's what
Speaker 1: it comes down to, so you gotta pay attention to that.
Speaker 1: They said there's still a chance he can play, but
Speaker 1: I don't know that they're going to rushing back. I
Speaker 1: think they need him for the long term this season
Speaker 1: as well, so I would rank it Everett, Herndon, Hunter
Speaker 1: Henry for this week, but for the rest of the season,
Speaker 1: I would rank it the complete opposite way. Henry Herndon
Speaker 1: still second and then Everett third of the group. And look,
Speaker 1: if you really need a tight end, I'm willing to
Speaker 1: go as high as, you know, eight percent of my
Speaker 1: fab budget on any of these guys. You know, maybe
Speaker 1: if you really need one long term, you could go
Speaker 1: twelve percent, maybe even more than that on a Hunter Henry.
Speaker 1: But um, yeah, this is a really good week for
Speaker 1: tight end pickups in in fantasy football, and we don't
Speaker 1: normally see that. Gerald Everett, Chris Herndon, Hunter Henry were
Speaker 1: all viable. And I agree, Frank, Hunter Henry is the
Speaker 1: one I want to own long term, But if desperate
Speaker 1: this week, I think the one you have to go
Speaker 1: with is Gerald Everett. He's been the one we've we've
Speaker 1: seen on the field at least obviously, Hunter Henry has
Speaker 1: played in a while. Chris Herndon no guarantees at Gordon
Speaker 1: Adam Gas. He's gonna be activated this week. Wh I
Speaker 1: thought it was kind of weird, But Gerald e the
Speaker 1: Patriots have done the same thing. Like them, they caught him, yeah,
Speaker 1: so you know he was eligible to return. Obviously, the
Speaker 1: Jets are not gonna cut Chris Herndon, But we do
Speaker 1: see this at times where guys are eligible to return
Speaker 1: and they're not brought back right away. So it's an
Speaker 1: interesting situation want to pay attention to. But yeah, still
Speaker 1: really do like Herndon, really really. Athletics showed that rapport
Speaker 1: down the stretch last year for Sam Donald when he
Speaker 1: started to um yeah better as well throughout the course
Speaker 1: last season. So I am interested in Chris Herndon for sure,
Speaker 1: but pay attention to make sure that he is actually
Speaker 1: going to be active this week. So you move on
Speaker 1: from those three tight ends you wrote down on our
Speaker 1: show sheet here Darren Fells his desperation. Yeah, he had
Speaker 1: two targets last week, he had two receptions, both of
Speaker 1: them went for touchdowns. And they're going up against the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs in Week six. Could be the game
Speaker 1: of the year, honestly, could be a really really fun
Speaker 1: game between Patrick Mahomes and DeShawn Watson. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: it's Darren Fells and Jordan Aikins who are basically splitting
Speaker 1: time right now. So it's a messy situation. But the
Speaker 1: Chiefs have actually performed better against wide receivers this year
Speaker 1: than we were expecting and to have struggled against tight ends.
Speaker 1: So if you are in desperation mode after all three
Speaker 1: of these tight ends, Darren Fells. You know, if you
Speaker 1: were a Darren Waller owner and all three of these
Speaker 1: guys are already owned, then the next man up that
Speaker 1: I would look at is Darren Fells. Basically because of
Speaker 1: the matchup against the Chiefs. Moving on to a streaming defense,
Speaker 1: I'll ask you from our own perspective, Frankie, we owned Carolina,
Speaker 1: we picked them up as a stream against Jacksonville last week.
Speaker 1: Can we start them this week against Taba in London?
Speaker 1: I don't think that I would want to. I like
Speaker 1: what the Carolina Panthers have done so far. This here,
Speaker 1: Brian Burns has looked really, really good, you know, coming
Speaker 1: off the edge. They're getting a ton of sacks. I know,
Speaker 1: heading into last week they were leading the league in sacks.
Speaker 1: They just had defensive touchdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars as well.
Speaker 1: They had a few forced fumbles. They've recovered those. Really
Speaker 1: good defense. But this Tampa Bay offense is a scary
Speaker 1: one to go up against. Right now. Jamis Winston throwing
Speaker 1: for a ton of yards, been over three hundred yards
Speaker 1: believe three weeks in a row now, Chris Godwin obviously
Speaker 1: getting things done. He's top five wide receiver for fantasy football.
Speaker 1: Mike Evans has been inconsistent, but we know the talent
Speaker 1: is there as well. Um So it's a tough situation. Man.
Speaker 1: I don't think I want to get in front of
Speaker 1: Tampa Barry Now. I know that Jameis Winston could be
Speaker 1: turnover prone at times. But if I own Carolina, I
Speaker 1: think I would be trying to add the Cowboys defense
Speaker 1: if they were available, just because they're going up against
Speaker 1: the Jets, and even with Donald back, this offensive line
Speaker 1: for the Jets is just dreadful. Collectiosemily is hurt. It
Speaker 1: started a rookie third round pick last week and too
Speaker 1: much adoga. They gave up ten sacks two defensive touchdowns
Speaker 1: to the Eagles last week. If the Cowboys are available,
Speaker 1: I would rather stream them than the Carolina Panthers. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I tend to agree with the Cowboys are out there,
Speaker 1: That's exactly the direction I would go in. Um same,
Speaker 1: Donald b Max certainly helps things from the New York Jets,
Speaker 1: but the offensive line, much like Cleveland's last night, not
Speaker 1: something that worries me at all. Would you rather have
Speaker 1: Miami defense or Washington's defense this week? I would rather have. Man,
Speaker 1: It's it's tough because looking for streaming defenses this week,
Speaker 1: there's really not a lot, So I would I think
Speaker 1: I would go with Washington and your Both defenses are
Speaker 1: not good, but I would expect the Miami Dolphins to
Speaker 1: be more mistake prone. I mean, as bad as Washington is,
Speaker 1: the Dolphins are worse. I do truly believe that. I
Speaker 1: mean that's what the line says so far as well.
Speaker 1: Even with this game in Miami, Washington are three and
Speaker 1: a half point favorites, So, uh, the Dolphins could fall
Speaker 1: behind in this game. They're gonna have to throw. Offensive
Speaker 1: line is not good. We could see some sacks, some
Speaker 1: turnovers as well. I would go with Washington. Don't really
Speaker 1: love them. I'll throw it back your way, Greg. So
Speaker 1: we own the Carolina Panthers. I picked them up everywhere
Speaker 1: last week. Are you scared enough of the Tampa Bay
Speaker 1: offense that you are willing to drop the Carolina Panthers
Speaker 1: for a defense that's in that Washington in Miami game
Speaker 1: or the Ravens who are going up against the Cincinnati Bank.
Speaker 1: I much prefer to dropping for the Ravens next week.
Speaker 1: They see I wouldn't drop it for Washington m Aavy
Speaker 1: because they both stink like I like you're We always
Speaker 1: say they don't want necessarily play against a team that
Speaker 1: is doesn't score because they could wind up scoring. They
Speaker 1: don't get enough turnovers, that kind of that. That whole thing.
Speaker 1: Neither the teams really turned the ball over. Um, the
Speaker 1: defense has turned the ball over all that much. With Carolina,
Speaker 1: no matter what, you're gonna have to change defenses next
Speaker 1: week because Carolina is gonna buy. So I don't mind
Speaker 1: dropping Carolina. So one of these we on Carolina and
Speaker 1: Frankie I have I have the available defenses when run down,
Speaker 1: run them down, and you let me know who you
Speaker 1: do a dig. That's okay with you, all right? San
Speaker 1: Francisco look great last night they're facing the Rams. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to do it. Hitsburgh against the Chargers, Nope,
Speaker 1: you just look good. Green Bay against Detroit defense has
Speaker 1: played better, but the Detroit offense has done well. Kenny
Speaker 1: Gallady and carry on Johnson, Nope, in our lead. By
Speaker 1: the way, they had nine points four to five weeks.
Speaker 1: Pretty defense pretty good solid Tampa against Carolina. I don't
Speaker 1: want to have his defense New Orleans Jacksonville sounds like
Speaker 1: a winner, does it? Though Minshew has played well, they're
Speaker 1: going to run it with Leonard Forday, yeah, last week,
Speaker 1: min you play as well. Carolina's defense was good, that's true.
Speaker 1: But the Carolina Panthers defense is just better than the Saints.
Speaker 1: Next three weeks, New Orleans defense, Jacksonville, Chicago, Arizona. M Okay,
Speaker 1: so Minshew Minshew whiskey, Yeah, that could be nice. It's
Speaker 1: not New Orleans Detroit against green Bay probably not. I
Speaker 1: mean I need it. No, I don't want to do it. Man,
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones is running well. They still have Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1: We won't star Kansas City, we won't, do you think?
Speaker 1: I mean, would you use any of those teams over Carolina?
Speaker 1: I would use New Orleans over Carolina? Yeah, I sually, no,
Speaker 1: that's fine. Yeah. I mean, look, if you're looking for
Speaker 1: it more long term, but the game is in Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: We know the New Orleans Saints the past couple of
Speaker 1: weeks have been home and they play much better inside
Speaker 1: of a dome. Obviously against Tennessee, that one's interesting. I
Speaker 1: was looking at that as well. Returnovers finally, Yeah, but
Speaker 1: they lost Bradley Chub Washington, Arizona, Arizona, Cincinnati, Miami. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean the Saints might be in the mixed. Green
Speaker 1: Bay's interesting just because they've played really well. I don't
Speaker 1: think getting a lot of sacks that passed for USh
Speaker 1: is revamped. Pittsburgh's crazy is good. There's their defense has
Speaker 1: played better. One more week from Melvin Gordon to get
Speaker 1: more involved. Austin Ekeler is going to do his thing.
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry might be back. I will Pittsburgh has all
Speaker 1: by next week as well. Yeah, I think the Saints
Speaker 1: and the Packers are the ones that I would consider
Speaker 1: dropping the Carolina Panthers for. But hey, the Carolina Panthers
Speaker 1: are stilly, really really talented defense. Green Bay this week,
Speaker 1: pleas is Detroit bases Oakland next week. Always after that
Speaker 1: the base case. Yeah, I don't think you want the
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers going up against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 1: Definitely dropped the Panthers for the Cowboys and the Ravens.
Speaker 1: He's Frank Snaville, I'm Greg Salzman having awesome night. Wager
Speaker 1: talks up next then out the window will see tomorrow.

Speaker 1: from the game's best DFS players joined Daily Roado dot com.
Speaker 1: So what did happen? What did happens? Here's what you
Speaker 1: missed on the BFx. Off to the next series, then Eric, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's going because of that. I really didn't watch anyone
Speaker 1: the night football, and I got a text at Matt
Speaker 1: Brida on Matt Rida's eighty three yard run. So and
Speaker 1: then I turned to it on his first front of
Speaker 1: the game, Yes massive, and I saw Baker maybe'll get
Speaker 1: sacked a couple of times and were back in the
Speaker 1: Yankees and the boarders of a million points. It's like,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm watching this. Yeah. The Browns are complete
Speaker 1: disaster right now, outside of Nick Chub who still managed
Speaker 1: to run for over five yards per carry against a
Speaker 1: very good San Francisco forty Niners defense. Baker Mayfield under
Speaker 1: pressure all night long, was sacked four times. Joey Bosa
Speaker 1: all up in his face. Biker loved the trash talk
Speaker 1: from Joey Bosa as well. But ultimately, this Brown's offense
Speaker 1: is broken right now. Offensive line is not good, can't
Speaker 1: get the ball in the hands of his playmakers. Odell
Speaker 1: Beckham another dud. Two receptions twenty seven yards. Jarvis Landry
Speaker 1: really the only person who showed up in the past
Speaker 1: game four catches for seventy five yards. But this Brown's
Speaker 1: team is in disarray right now. Freddie Kitchens, man, you
Speaker 1: gotta swallow your pride. You gotta handover play calling duties
Speaker 1: to Todd Monkin. Monkey did a great job last year
Speaker 1: with the Tampa Bay Bucks. Uh, you know, with a
Speaker 1: team that it was really not all that talented either.
Speaker 1: You know, he got the most out of Jamis Winston.
Speaker 1: That offensive line for Tampa Bay was not a great
Speaker 1: one last year either, but they can pass the freaking
Speaker 1: ball last year, and you know, I think the only
Speaker 1: chance that this Brown's offense has to kind of meet
Speaker 1: their potential is in the play calling duties over to
Speaker 1: Todd Monkett. But Frankly, I just don't think that. I
Speaker 1: don't think that Freddy Kitchens is gonna be able to
Speaker 1: swallow his pride and make that happen on the other
Speaker 1: side of the ball. I was talking about this downstairs
Speaker 1: with a couple of guys. The San Francisco forty Niners
Speaker 1: actually have a recipe for success right now. If you
Speaker 1: look at this team, their offensive line has played amazing
Speaker 1: so far this year. Entering this game, they were number
Speaker 1: one in Football Outsiders run blocking analytical Tools, which means,
Speaker 1: you know, obviously they showed that off last night. Matt
Speaker 1: Brina Levin carries a hundred fourteen yards, a touchdown. Tevin Coleman,
Speaker 1: first game back throw this guy right back in the
Speaker 1: mix sixteen carries nineties seven yards and another touchdown there
Speaker 1: as well. Matt Brina added a receiving touchdown. This team
Speaker 1: can run the football. They have a really strong defensive line,
Speaker 1: they're strong against the run. Their secondary I think it's solid.
Speaker 1: They have that veteran anchor in Richard Sherman as well.
Speaker 1: This San Francisco forty Niners team is a really, really
Speaker 1: dangerous team. And you have a quarterback that I believe
Speaker 1: can make plays when assiduced. So in Jimmy Garoppolo, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe he's not, you know, one of the best in
Speaker 1: the league. Sorry adventure, I know you're downstairs, Gucci Garoppolo,
Speaker 1: but I think that he can make enough plays where,
Speaker 1: you know, when they need him to actually make a play.
Speaker 1: It's not just one of these smash mouth football teams
Speaker 1: like the Jets for example, from ten years ago, where
Speaker 1: you know they needed Santis to make plays and ultimately
Speaker 1: he couldn't do it. There's a team that can run
Speaker 1: the football, they can play good defense, and Jimmy Garoppolo
Speaker 1: is an adequate, adequate quarterback, so very dangerous San Francisco
Speaker 1: forty niner team Cleveland Brown has gotta try and figure
Speaker 1: this out.
