12
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: and welcome to NFL Fantasy Live, the official fantasy football

13
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: show of the NFL. James Kell here alongside the Hall

14
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: of Famer Michael Fabiano, Marcus Grant on the far side,

15
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 1: and very good looking, handsome gentlemen over in the middle,

16
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: Ellie Harrison. How you doing good? We got lots of

17
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: stuff going on today. I really want to just dive

18
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: into it. We're gonna see Molly Carram later on the

19
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: show as well, but I really just want to get

20
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 1: to the latest headlines, the big news for fantasy owners

21
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 1: and for Cleveland Brown fans. Josh Gordon has been suspended

22
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: for one year for violation of the league's substance abuse policy.

23
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: Gordon had appealed the decision earlier, but the suspension was upheld.

24
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: Gordon's eligibility for reinstatement will be determined after season. This

25
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: is a guy, guys that set the Brown single season

26
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: record for receptions or excuse me, receiving yards sixteen more

27
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: than six yards, nine touchdowns in fourteen games is a

28
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: big loss for that all. It is a big loss

29
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: and it's a big loss for fantasy owners as well,

30
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: because a lot of people took a late run fly

31
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: round Gordon. Now the decision comes down, I think Andrew

32
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: Hawkins becomes a deep sleeper. Miles Austin has a little

33
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: bit more value. But one thing you should do, if

34
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: you already drafted Gordon, if somebody doesn't know about this yet,

35
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: trade him now. Try to trade fair and love and

36
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: fantasy quickly life um Jordan Cameron does does this help

37
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: or hurt his value? Because again it seems like to me,

38
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 1: the safeties will be able to creep down in the box.

39
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: Am I right and saying that? But He's also going

40
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: to see a lot of targets, so this helps his value.

41
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: As far as I'm concerned, Elly, what do you think. Well,

42
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: I think it's a big loss for football period. You

43
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: hate to see this, But if you've already drafted and

44
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: you already took Josh Gordon, you're sitting there, look at

45
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 1: the waiver wire. Marcus and I off camera, we're looking

46
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: at some guys that are left out there. Brian Hartline's

47
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: name jumps off the page. Over a thousand yards, seventy

48
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: six catches. Granted only four touchdowns. But if you have

49
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: seventy six catches and over a thousand yards, you be

50
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: long on a fantasy roster. I don't care if you're

51
00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: on a tin team or a twelve team, you're at

52
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: least to w r for go pick him up right now.

53
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: He's not the only good name. Steve Smith was out

54
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 1: there as well. Kimball Tompkins was out there. I think

55
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: he may get some good play with the Patriots this year.

56
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: But Brian Hartline, I go grab him right now. Marcus Grant,

57
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: you brought up a great point. A lot of folks

58
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: are in keeper leagues. I know you're in the keeper league.

59
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: You're kind of you were kind of battling with this

60
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: whole Josh Gordon decision. What advice would you give keeper

61
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: league on its Well, first thing is to just check

62
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: the rules of your keeper league. If if it's a

63
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: one year deal where you can only keep a guy

64
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: for one season, then you gotta say goodbye to Josh Gorden.

65
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: If there's a possibility that maybe you can hold on

66
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: to him for a couple of years, then you really

67
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: have a decision to make, and it's going to be

68
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: worth watching what happens with any potential reinstatement after the season,

69
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: how quickly he can get back. I mean, will he

70
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: be there for O T s? Will he be there

71
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: for training camp? If he's gonna be there and he's

72
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: gonna participate for this club next year, then maybe you

73
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: want to hold onto him because he's still gonna be

74
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: the same explosive guy a year from now. I think

75
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: it depends on how many keepers you're allowed to have.

76
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: If it's only a couple, he's gone. I think either way,

77
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: you're right. If he misses that practice time, very very

78
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: pivotal time in a football player's season. Is that practice time?

79
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: If he misses that boy, I don't know if you

80
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: can't keep them talking about practice. We're talking about practice, alright.

81
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: Good news for Cam Newton fantasy owners. Panthers head coach

82
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: Ron Rivera says he has quote no doubt that Newton

83
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: will play in this season opener. Newton has been battling

84
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 1: a hellline fracture in his ribs that he suffered in

85
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: the preseason. I gotta ask, is anyone worried about his

86
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: durability this year. He's also coming off of ankle surgery,

87
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: and all of his wide receivers turned around from two

88
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: thousand and thirteen, and people in fantasy drafts are scared.

89
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: Because I have landed Cam Newton, who has been no

90
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 1: worse than fourth and fantasy points among quarterbacks in any

91
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: year of his career, in the tenth rounds in three

92
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: different leagues, and at that point minimize risk. I'm taking

93
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: him Elliott. I took Tony Romo for that very purpose

94
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: in case he can't play, because I think Tony Romo

95
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: is gonna put up monster fantasy points this year. So

96
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,919
Speaker 1: I have two potential starters at quarterback because of that.

97
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: My other big concern is how he adjusts to life

98
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: being a pocket quarterback. We've seen so many guys who

99
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 1: run and they get tied to the pocket. It changes

100
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: the way they play. And I worry that Cam is

101
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: gonna have to make that adjustment. In that first preseason

102
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: game coming off of that ankle surgery, he was extremely tentative.

103
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: I'll be curious to see if he's even more tentative

104
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: with those ribs. So yeah, and he can't be the

105
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: Panthers leading rusher or nowhere those days. We've got to

106
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 1: be gone over all, right, Uh, some old line talk here.

107
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: The Patriots traded Pro Bowl guard Logan Makings to the

108
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: Buccaneers or tight end Tim Right, a draft pick, a

109
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: bag of chips, and maybe a free oil change coupon

110
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: what kind of chips? Yeah, maybe Derrito's. I'm not sure.

111
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: On the surface, not a lot to take away from

112
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: a fantasy perspective, But I want to read between the

113
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: lines here, Joe, because the Path's trade for a tight end.

114
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: Is there something that the Patriots know about Gronks health

115
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: that we don't know? This doesn't mean a bag of

116
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: chips because Tim Wright is a slender tight end. He's

117
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: more of a move guy. He's not a big guy.

118
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: He's plays a completely different role than Robber and Cowski

119
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: does that. I would not read anything into it, neither

120
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 1: would it means nothing for Gronkowski. As far as I'm concerned,

121
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: good news for Tampa Bay's offensive line, because that thing

122
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: was it was a hot mess yep uh. You talk

123
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: about Tampa Bay's old line. They absolutely needed to make

124
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: this trade. The guy who's gonna benefit the most, it's

125
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: gotta be Doug Martin. I think if you're Don Martin

126
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: fantasy on it right now, you're doing the Dougie, You're

127
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: doing the cat Daddy. You're excited about this one dog

128
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: Doug against Hey, he ran hard against Buffalo the other day.

129
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: I like Doug Martin. I think he's gonna sneak into

130
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: the back end of the top ten this year. You know,

131
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm so torn on where he fits into that hierarchy there,

132
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: but I do like what what was gonna happen for

133
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: him now? With Logan Magan's there, especially those interior linemen.

134
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: You solidify those, it helps you that run. They lose

135
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: Charles Sims, they gained an offensive line lineman and they

136
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: needed it. And in the last game he had fourteen

137
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: touches in the first half he is the featured back.

138
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: Is he gonna return to his rookie status elite status? No,

139
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: but he's creeping into the second round now in a

140
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: lot of leagues, I'd like to see him. Um, you know,

141
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: you talk about the coaching staff of a lot of

142
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: different places. Levy Smith loves to run that ball. I've

143
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: written extensively about Jeff ted for he despite the fact

144
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: that he's a quarterback s guru, he loves to run

145
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: the ball as well. I really like Doug Martin this year.

146
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: I really think he can sneak in to that top ten.

147
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: All right. Doug Martin, though has averaged less than three

148
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: catches per per game over his short career. His value

149
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: not as great in PPR leagues, but whose value does

150
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: get a boost if you're in a PPR league. And

151
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: if you take a look at this list, I mean, look,

152
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: there's Jamal Charles, Matt Forte. We get that, Darren Sprowls

153
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: is in there. I gotta say a guy that I'm

154
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 1: very surprised to see on that list Dexter mccluster and

155
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: Chris Obania. Really he's all cluster was a wide receiver

156
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: last year. Remember that this is for targets. Only not receptions,

157
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: but purely targets only. All right, So outside of the

158
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: top guys again those Jamal Charles is in the map

159
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: fourts of the world. In leagues where you do get

160
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: some kind of point per catch, give him some backs

161
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: who you see have series boost and value in a

162
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: PPR league fas I'm gonna tell you right now, Shane

163
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: Verene is someone you need to target. This guy love it.

164
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: Two thousand and fourteen. They don't trust Stephen Ridley because

165
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: he's got butter hands, and James White, really James White

166
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: and Lagart Watts now doing his thing with Levan Bell.

167
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: Shane Verreen, who scored two touchdowns in the last preseason

168
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: game for the Patriots, he's getting that rapport going as

169
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: a pass catcher with Tom Brady. He's not going to

170
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: rush for a thousand yards, but he may very well

171
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: give you eight to nine hundred yards receiving. I could

172
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: see him catching sixty seventy balls in this offense. That

173
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: makes him a PPR R B two. Did you get that, Elliott?

174
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: I got it. I think since week eleven, here's a

175
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: stat for you. Forty receptions three seventy yards for Shane

176
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 1: en the most for running back. He's got good hands.

177
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: I'm glad you mentioned that. I'm gonna because nobody ever

178
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: mentions Pierre Thomas. Just just in. Pierre Thomas led all

179
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: running backs and catches last year. You saw him that

180
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: full screen. We showed the eight four targets. He caught

181
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 1: seventy seven of those seventy seven. Some quick math on

182
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 1: my t I eight one. That's about ninety t I

183
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 1: eight three year a little bit younger than me. That's

184
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: about catch rate. Man, mean, you want reliability, you want reliability.

185
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: Who has been a more reliable player for a team

186
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: than Pierre Thomas? Now, fab as, I know what you're

187
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 1: gonna say. It's hard to to decide what the Saints

188
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: running backs and are percent agree with you. He's a

189
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: great bargain. He has been such a good player for them.

190
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: And again I say this all the time, when do

191
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: they have to sub for Pierre Thomas, they don't. He

192
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: stays on the field, which is why he catches the ball.

193
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: And I don't think Mark Ingram is gonna do a

194
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 1: whole lot to cut into Pierre Thomas's vue, especially that

195
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: in PPR leagues this year, No doubt, it's interesting, though

196
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: because mark Ingram has looked fantastic in the preseason, so

197
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: that's certainly something to watch for. You know, it's crazy

198
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: about this New Orleans backfield. Not only did they have

199
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: one guy who catch that ball, that two guys that

200
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: were catching rocks all over the place. Uh, Lashawn McCoy

201
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: has a new backfield mate in Darren Sprowles. Marcus, I

202
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: know you're high on him in PPR and Darren Sprowles

203
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: is listed as a running back, but he may m

204
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: to be more of a receiver type this year for

205
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 1: the Eagles in that offense. Everybody I know was concerned

206
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: whether or not Darren Sprowles is going to cut into

207
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy's touches. I think, if anything, you see Spoils

208
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: picked up where the Sean Jackson left off and he

209
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: gets a lot of those targets that Jackson left behind

210
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: when he moved to Washington. Both of those running backs

211
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: can be on the field at the same time, and

212
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: we've seen Sprowls kind of take those goal line cherries

213
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 1: in the preseason. But more than anything, he's gonna be

214
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: a guy you see lineup in the slot catch passes

215
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: out of the backfield. He was a PPR machine in

216
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: Orleans will continue to be the same thing. Darren Sprowls

217
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: and a Chip Kelly offense. Let me quote Kramer. Give

218
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: me some of that, all right, Elliott, I know I

219
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: always kid you about looking a lot like Uh Jordan camera.

220
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: Talk to me about a guy hands this guy. Talk

221
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: to me about a guy the fantasy community. Uh jokes

222
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: around and says looks a lot like proto bag as

223
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,719
Speaker 1: we're talking about Danny Woodhead. That's why I better believe it.

224
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: Ny Woodhead doesn't come around here. Okay, you mentioned PPR machine.

225
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: He's been a T one thousand. Can we agree on that.

226
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Danny Woodhead was outstanding last year six receiving touchdowns.

227
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: Oh by the way for Danny Woodha. You talked about

228
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: Chip Kelly's offense, and I agree with you. They on

229
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: Darren Sprowls. But here's the thing about Danny Woodhead. I

230
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: trust his quarterback. I think Philip Rivers has looked out

231
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: standing the preseason. How about Little McCoy and Mike McCoy

232
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: as while I was getting there, Just give me a chance. Okay,

233
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 1: you get enough talking to being the host. But Philip

234
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: Rivers I trust a little bit more than Nick Foles

235
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: this year. In Debt's Danny woodhads distributor. And any time

236
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: we talk about guys making hay in the receiving game,

237
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 1: they've got to have the distributor in Danny woodhead has.

238
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: And the thing about wood Hit is that he's not

239
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: a sexy pick, so people don't draft him early in

240
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: the PPR league. That I had a draft, it was

241
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: two nights ago. I can't keep up. I got so

242
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: many drafts. I got him as my fourth running back

243
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: in the PPR league. You start because you could start

244
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,719
Speaker 1: big things. Man, don't knock him all right, I'm not

245
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: knocking him. I like it. Coming up? Which Bills running

246
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: back should you grant draft? Grabbing your draft? Let me

247
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 1: get this out of here. C J. Spiller or Fred

248
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: Jackson and his rookie wide receiver Sammy Watkins set for

249
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,079
Speaker 1: a monster's season. Find out during our fantasy pre you

250
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: for the Bills and how about a running back blue

251
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: light special? I'm telling you, which are beings have great

252
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: value compared to their average draft position? I opening stats

253
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 1: when NFL Fantasy Live returns. Yeh, the Buffalo Bills select

254
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins. That's the answer. At the Buffalo off. Let's

255
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: just if you guys grasp these Bills have a stable

256
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: of good running backs. They're having a lot of fun

257
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: understands today. Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. Molly Carem

258
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: here with all these fine gentlemen, and we are going

259
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 1: to break down the Buffalo Bills from top to bottom

260
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: for our fantasy two days. So let's start with quarterback

261
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 1: EJ Manuel Fives. He missed six games last year with

262
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: that knee injury. Does he have any deep sleeper value

263
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: this year? Maybe a little bit. He's coming off of

264
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: drafts in the fifth round fift round on NFL dot

265
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: Com at this point, but I don't see him making

266
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: a huge impact. There's so many good quarterbacks in the

267
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: National Football League right now that it's kind of hard

268
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 1: to put all your chips in the EJ manual. So

269
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: I say late on flyer, and you know, he did

270
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: go to Florida State. They don't exactly have the best

271
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: reputation for NFL quarterbacks and I see Marcus giving me

272
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 1: a state. Look, yeah, alright, so not so much value there.

273
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: The big question, though, fantasy owners want to know, is

274
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: what do they do at the running back position? Did

275
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: they go with C. J. Spiller or Fred Jackson. Let's

276
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: compare them by the numbers and guys, as you take

277
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: a look here, both players almost playing all sixteen games,

278
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,839
Speaker 1: and as you can see, the big difference is Jackson's

279
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: touchdowns and fantasy points. He finished last year as the

280
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: tenth best fantasy back, while Spiller finished so fabs even

281
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: though the numbers leaned towards Fred Jackson. I understand you're

282
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 1: liking Spiller. Please do explain my friends well, because I

283
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 1: want to talk about youth and up side. And Fred

284
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,959
Speaker 1: Jackson was great last year, tenth among running points. I mean,

285
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: that's unreal. But Spiller had the ankle, so I'm giving

286
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: him the benefit of the doubt. I want to go

287
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: with upside. I had, let's see three drafts going on

288
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 1: at the same time last night, which yeah, I actually

289
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,439
Speaker 1: did do that, and in one of the league's I

290
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: dropped Spiller in the fifth round, but he was my

291
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: flex starter and I'm comfortable with Spiller as my flex

292
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: as my R V two. Nah, I'm not doing that

293
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: three drafts at one time. I always did have confidence

294
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: in your number draft. I love I love me some Fabiano,

295
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna have to disagree with you, Bud big time.

296
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: I'll go with Fred Jackson. If I was John Madden,

297
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: IU had taken the old marker and circled that ten

298
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: touchdowns on the full screen. We just showed the reason

299
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: why Fred Jackson gets touchdowns is because the Bills feel

300
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: confident leaving him on the field. He could block, he

301
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: can catch, he can run, he could do everything back

302
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: So I felt more confident in our draft last night,

303
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 1: Michael taking Fred Jackson, which I did. I think I

304
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: got him in the seventh or eighth round, which is

305
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: better than his ADP. But I want to a proven commodity,

306
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: and I took him as an r B RB four,

307
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: okay at RB four, And I think I think the

308
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: word there's proven commodity too, because if we keep drafting C. J.

309
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: Spiller expecting him to go back to what he was

310
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: a couple of seasons a going, and maybe he does,

311
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: but I think because we keep waiting on that projection

312
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: and it hasn't happened yet, whereas Fred Jackson keeps doing it.

313
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: And the other thing I like about Jackson is that

314
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: we talk about Reggie Bush and joyke Bell in Detroit

315
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: and how they get split there's a lot of that

316
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: going on in Buffalo as well. And Fred Jackson may

317
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: not have ten touchdowns this year, but he's the guy

318
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: who's going to get in the zone a lot and

319
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: maybe hopefully Frank Summers doesn't come in snap some of

320
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: those three. And that's it real quick before we move on.

321
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: So we're not buying Spiller's adp of the fifth round. Now,

322
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: how about Jackson with the eleventh round? Is that's right value?

323
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: That's that's a better value. But there's more upside with

324
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: Spiller and um a guy who likes upside, all right,

325
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: me too. Let's move on to the wide receiver position though,

326
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: and the Bills obviously traded up to the number four

327
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: spot to get that electric playmaker in Sammy Watkins. What

328
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: are your expectations from him? Ellie? Is it gonna light

329
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: it up? Let me response? We already know that wide

330
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: receiver is a difficult position to adjust to. But when

331
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 1: you have a quarterback who's the mediocre express right now,

332
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: and it builds offense that is I mean, look, let's

333
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: be honest. The offensees not look good in the preseason.

334
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: You can't do it by yourself. When your wide receiver,

335
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: when you're a rookie back, Marcus, you can do it

336
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: by yourself. Sometimes. That's why I don't like Sammy Watkins,

337
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: and I als will think a lot of people are

338
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: going to be keeping their eye on Sammy Watkins. Defensively speaking.

339
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: Everybody knows what he can do. We all saw the

340
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: vine videos and the Instagram videos of his one handed catches,

341
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: and we know what he brings to the table. He's

342
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 1: gonna draw a lot of attention from opposing secondaries. But

343
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: there's another wide receiver Marcus. There is, and he went

344
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: to the fine institution at the University of Southern Cana. Yeah,

345
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: he's a trojan help. That's not That's not the reason

346
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: that I like Robert Woods this year. I do think

347
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: that just his ability. I mean, the guy is a

348
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: great route runner, He's got fantastic hands, and I think

349
00:16:58,360 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: they went a little bit of a fire under him

350
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: this preseason. He came out and he worked with the

351
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: twos for the first couple of preseason games, and maybe

352
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: we all wondered, does this mean he's getting demoded? Is

353
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: Mike William's going to take over that job? He moved

354
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: back up. He's playing with the ones. And while everybody's

355
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: looking at Sammy Watkins across the way. Robert Woods is

356
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: going to find himself open quite a few ways where

357
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 1: you see right, he's a wide receiver. I'm ignoring you, right,

358
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 1: Where are you taking your boyfriend? Because the sixteenth round

359
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 1: I'm probably taking it, probably in the fourteenth round or

360
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: something like, I'm taking him lay. But you weren't committed

361
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 1: a little bit more to USC, did not? I get

362
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: so mixed up with all the spare receivers that did

363
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: start lumping under the USC category. Sorry, good thing, because

364
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: I'd be terrible myself and haters. It's reality. No, don't

365
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: worry about r J. Sower was great. Yeah, alright, good stuff, gentlemen.

366
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 1: With our bills two days, but still to come our

367
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: fantasy two days. We're just getting started. We have a

368
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 1: complete breakdown of the new England Patriots. Is drafting Gronk

369
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: worth the risk? And what's the deal with the past backfield?

370
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 1: Will let you know. But up next is time for

371
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 1: fantasy game changers. We'll tell you which running backs have

372
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: great value in the middle rounds of the draft and

373
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: could be the key to your championship run. Fight on

374
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: the most watched fantasy football show on television returns to

375
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,919

Speaker 1: your tweet right here on NFL Fantasy Live. Today, we're

383
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 1: trying to find you a diamond and the rough when

384
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: it comes running backs. Fabs Marcus, Who are some backs

385
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: that you guys are targeting because they're going way too

386
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: late in drafts? Bentait is the first guy that comes

387
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 1: to mine because it looks like he has sort of

388
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: secured that featured role in Cleveland, and if not a

389
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: featured role, at least the top spot on the depth chart.

390
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: He's looked good in preseason work. The big knock on

391
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,959
Speaker 1: him has always been injuries. He can't stay healthy. But

392
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 1: there's motivation here. His contract is set up where the

393
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: more he plays, the more money he's going to make

394
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: and let's face it, guys, a lot of the success

395
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: in the National Football League has to do money, money, money,

396
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: money with the dead president. So his current andp on

397
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com is round eight. That's ridiculous. If you

398
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: can get him as your third or fourth running back

399
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: despite the presence of Terence West, that's a great value.

400
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: I was just about to ask you about Terence West.

401
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 1: If you draft a guy like bent Tate, you pretty

402
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: much have to handcuff him to Terence West. And my

403
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: right and saying that, well, it depends on how many

404
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: teams are in your league, because typically you're not handcuffing

405
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 1: your third or fourth running back. But if you're in

406
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: a twelve team league, four team team league, then absolutely

407
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: all right. Toby Gearhart changing venues. He's going from Minnesota

408
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: to Jacksonville. I know you like him coming into this year.

409
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: I do. I wish I could have seen a little

410
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: more of him in the preseason. But what I love

411
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: about him is is the opportunity just playing and simple.

412
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 1: He is going to be the guy in the Jaguars offense,

413
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: and he's going to be the guy who could approach

414
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: three hundred carries. You just don't see that anymore. And

415
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: so while his work in the preseason has been less

416
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: than a spectacular, you just love the fact that while

417
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 1: the Jaguars are sorting out their passing game, they're gonna

418
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: have to lean on this running back. And right now

419
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 1: he's going in the seventh round. You don't see single back,

420
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: you know, the primary backs going that late. If you

421
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: can get them that late and use them as an

422
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: RV two, you're sitting pretty I think a lot of

423
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: fantasy managers might be worried about the Jags overall offense.

424
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 1: How worried are you? I mean, we're talking about a

425
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 1: unit that may or may not score one touchdown a game.

426
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: How concerned are you about that? It's a little bit concerning.

427
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 1: But you know, right now, if you're looking at Gerhart

428
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 1: as a guy who gets twenty to thirty touches a game,

429
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 1: even if the yards per carrier yards per touch average

430
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: isn't that great, the volume should make up for it.

431
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: He's the lone guy in the Jags backfield joyke Bell

432
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: sharing backfield work with Reggie Bush. Yet he's a guy

433
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: that I think you and I both agree could be

434
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 1: a game changer this year. And he's a very good

435
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: value right now because he's got a later round a

436
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 1: DP and I just like saying Joike all right, I

437
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: just like his name. Last year finished seventeenth and fantasy

438
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: points among running backs. He's very personal. He can catch

439
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: the ball to the backfield, and what I like about

440
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: him is that he's going to see a lot of

441
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 1: that goal line work right there. So Reggie Bush maybe

442
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: sees more work between the twenties, and then once they

443
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: get into the red zone, it's all joy all the time.

444
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,120
Speaker 1: He is currently on NFL dot Com drafted in round nine.

445
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 1: That's an RB four. Yeah, that's an r V four terry,

446
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: at least for me because I wait on a quarterback

447
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: and at that point, that is absolutely like stealing good

448
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: value in standard and PPR leaves. And the thing I

449
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 1: love too is the upside you think about if Reggie

450
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 1: Bush does get hurt. Now we're talking about a guy

451
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: who's not just RB three, r B two, maybe pushing

452
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 1: himself into RB one territory because of that explosive offense. Well,

453
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: let's not hope on Reggie Bush's and he's already drafted

454
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: him in a couple of years, I adn't stay healthy,

455
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: all right, very good talk to me about Ray Rice.

456
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 1: He's another guy that's tremendous value right now due to

457
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 1: his a DP. Yeah, he's falling right now down around

458
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: the eighth rounder. So and a lot of that I

459
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: understand is because of the suspension. He's gonna miss the

460
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 1: first two games of the season. But once he comes back,

461
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: he's gonna jump back to being a big part of

462
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 1: that Ravens offense. I know people are worried that maybe

463
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: Bernard Pierce takes a lot of those snaps and maybe

464
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,360
Speaker 1: he pushes his way into that starting role. But Ray

465
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: Rice has looked really good in this preseason. He looks

466
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: like he's got that burst back. The Ravens have done

467
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: some things to try to show up that offensive line

468
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,880
Speaker 1: and with Darry Kubiak now calling the offense. There you go.

469
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 1: Those are the key words right there. I love Ray

470
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: Rice to bounce back. If you can weather those first

471
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: two games with your running back corps there on your

472
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: fantasy team, you should be really nice with Rice back

473
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 1: in the line of the absolutely best handcuff I like

474
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 1: this here has to be Carlos Hide. I know you

475
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 1: like him as well. Carlos Side is an extremely talented

476
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: young running back. The problem is frank Or is still

477
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 1: ahead of him on the depth charget. We've been burying

478
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: Frank Gore for at the last three years, and all

479
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: he does is put up numbers. Maybe you don't happen

480
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: this year. I don't know. All of a sudden, I

481
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: have to have some faith in frank Or. But how

482
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: does it guy? I think he has more value in

483
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 1: Dynasty League, clearly because he's young. Maybe even starting next

484
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: year he is the number one guy in San Francisco,

485
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: but well worth a late run pick and Redrofts fifteenth

486
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: round on NFL dot Com. I honestly think he's worth

487
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: a little bit more. Maybe twelve round. Yeah, I think

488
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: maybe he even sneaks in the late round. If you're

489
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: in a deep league, maybe he sneaks in as a

490
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: late late season flex guy, depending on how the ninth

491
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: the Niner is gonna want to save Frank Gore for

492
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: a playoff run. May see high late in the year.

493
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: All right, one thing to keep in mind, he's going

494
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 1: right now after Eric Ebron. Yeah, that doesn't make any sense.

495
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: That's no good. All right, that was game changers presented

496
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,560

00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: Twitter verse to answer all your pressing fantasy questions. This

508
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,719
Speaker 1: is NFL Fantasy Live. Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live,

509
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: the official fantasy football show of the National Football League.

510
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: Molly Caram here with Marcus Grant, Michael Fabiano, and Elliott Harrison.

511
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: Time now, gentlemen, for a breakdown of the New England Patriots.

512
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 1: So we start with one, Tom Brady. Elliott Is he

513
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: a top five quarterback this year? Yeah? To me, he is?

514
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: And now he's on the outskirts of that. I think no,

515
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: I think that he is going to be fifth and

516
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,640
Speaker 1: fantasy points this year. I think Andrew luck is fourth

517
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: in knee of your typical three. But Tom Brady, to me,

518
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: is going to have to do a lot of it

519
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 1: on his own. And I think the trade to Logan

520
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,639
Speaker 1: Mankins is going to affect the running game more than

521
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: it is the pass a game. When you talk about

522
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 1: pass protection, guys, you're talking about ackles more than you

523
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: are guards. Either way, Tom Brady gets the ball out early.

524
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: And here's the cool thing. Last year we lamented that

525
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: all these young receivers played. Well, what's cool about that

526
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: is the growing pains are somewhat over with. You're not

527
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: gonna see Tom Brady yelling at Kenberrell Tompkins on the

528
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: sideline anymore, Aaron Dobson. Now, these guys know what they're doing, presumably,

529
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 1: and I think Tom Brady I have Tom Brady's all

530
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,919
Speaker 1: Pro quarterback too. If there is any risk with Brady,

531
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: it's that we don't know how many games Rober Gronkowski

532
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: will play. Because if you look at the numbers last year,

533
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: Brady with Gronk awesome, fancy stud Brady without Gronk, that's

534
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 1: so much he was Matt Castle basically if you're looking

535
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: at numbers in consistency. So if I know Gronkowski is

536
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: playing fourteen games, Brady top five, no doubt, but we

537
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: don't know that. That's why he's falling onto the outscarts

538
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: right now. Is a DPS right around the sixth round.

539
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: That is a bar I wait on quarterbacks, so I

540
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 1: wouldn't take Brady unless he fell to me maybe eight,

541
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 1: and I've seen Brady hanging around drafts that long. It's

542
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: possible to get him that late. I think he falls

543
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 1: us outside of the top five this year, and I

544
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 1: think because you look at the guys who were in

545
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: that top five, of the guys I have slotted in there,

546
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: I think they have more consistent, more dangerous weapons to

547
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: throw too. But I do like what Brady has to offer.

548
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: I think FABS is right. Gronks presence on the field

549
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 1: is going to dictate how much Brady is going to

550
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: be productive this year, and I think he ends up

551
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: slotting somewhere around six or seven. So I can still

552
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: feel good about taking Andrew Luck last night. Over Let's

553
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: move on to Stephen Ridley though, if I can get

554
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 1: that one out there. Not as exciting last year at

555
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 1: a case of what I like to call fumble litis.

556
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,439
Speaker 1: What do we expect from him this year? Marcus? Hopefully

557
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 1: less fumbalitis. I know that the Patriots are hoping for that.

558
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: I think you will see numbers similar to what you

559
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: saw last year from him. You're looking at, you know,

560
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 1: maybe around two hundred carries, maybe around eight hundred rushing yards.

561
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: But I think you're going to have Shane Verene really

562
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: eat into his production. Vern's numbers were down last year

563
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,239
Speaker 1: because you missed so much time with injury. He just

564
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: always worried that the next time Ridley puts the ball

565
00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 1: on the ground, he's going to be back on the

566
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: bench for a next stinted period of time. And that's

567
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: the reason he's coming off the board in the twelfth round.

568
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,239
Speaker 1: I think right there is about the level of risk

569
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: I'm willing to take with him. Is maybe my fourth

570
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: running back, no question about it. And he has already

571
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: fumbled in the preseason and they used James White as

572
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 1: the starter. Although that last bellatris as you'd like to say, so,

573
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: Shane Breen is the guy to draft out of this backfield. Really,

574
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: I agree. He's an RB four, RB five type. He

575
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 1: just can't trust him. Yeah, and we know Belatris doesn't

576
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: playing real fast alright, Fabs. The question that everybody wants

577
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 1: to know about is when should you take Rob Gronkowski

578
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 1: If you're in a ten team league. I'm not drafting

579
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: him until probably the end of round four, the beginning

580
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: of round five because I'm afraid. Okay, this guy has

581
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: had twelve thirteen surgeries in the last two years. Listen.

582
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 1: But he was so good. I I know that. But

583
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,880
Speaker 1: he came back and played well and then got hurt

584
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: again the forearm, the back, the knee. He's coming off

585
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: on a c L. I know the a c L

586
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: is a new uh spring and ankle according to Akbarbasii Amla,

587
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: but it's still an a c L. And this guy

588
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: has had so many surgeries. So end of the fourth round,

589
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: beginning to the fifth round, that's where I minimize risk

590
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,120
Speaker 1: with Gronk, and that's what I take. I see, I

591
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 1: understand your point. But basically what you're saying is you're

592
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: not gonna be able to draft him because round well,

593
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 1: then then I'll take another Somebody in your draft is

594
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 1: gonna take him earlier in that either the back end

595
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 1: of the second to the top of the third. Back

596
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: into the second is too early to me. But back

597
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: into the third, I would take him. I would not

598
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: wait till the fourth. All right, Let's move on to

599
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: another one of Tom Brady's targets, Julian Edelman, and he

600
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: turned out to be one of his favorites last year.

601
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: A hundred catches, Elliott, what are you expecting from him?

602
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 1: He's a little bout PPR machine there he is. Can

603
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: we and we're gonna do PPR later? But can we

604
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: really qualify him as a favorite or I just have

605
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: nobody to play without anybody? Anybody? What are you default?

606
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: Right right? I look at Julian Edelman to have a

607
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: hundred catches this year for about a thousand eleven yards

608
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: and seven touch that's what he did last year. Well,

609
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: you like him again? I do? I do like him again.

610
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: I just don't want people to expect thirteen or fourteen

611
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: hundred yards season. He's not gonna get you the chunk

612
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: plays down the field. However, a hundred catches is a

613
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 1: hundred catches, and a thousand yards is a thousand yards.

614
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: I think he's being a little undervalued right now. He's

615
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: somebody that you have to look out for in your

616
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 1: draft because he is the number one target in New

617
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: England and he just referenced Gronkowski's injury. That just ups

618
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: this guy's value. Ninth round. That's what is Absolutely take

619
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: him in the ninth round, have a good value. Okay,

620
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: here's where we have some more question marks. Three receivers

621
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: Danny A. Mendola, KEMBERL. Tompkins, and Aaron Dobson. What do

622
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: we do with this situation? They're all a fifteen round

623
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: a DP and Tompkins is sixteenth round. But who are

624
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: you leaning towards? And I'm going a Mendola, But in

625
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 1: terms of upside, Dobson is the guy. So what does

626
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: that mean? That means that I'm drafting Amadola first out

627
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: of those three, but I would take Dobson as a

628
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver five because of his upside. I'm going Tompkins

629
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: in this one just because A Mendola we know he's

630
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: always hurt. Aaron Dobson has been hurt mostly throughout the preseason.

631
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: Tompkins the guy who's actually on the field working with

632
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, and he's younger than Amundola. He's speaking of

633
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: upside of me. That's the upside. I see right there.

634
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: You know, I'm just gonna talk a little real football here.

635
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: I think that Kimberl Tompkins is gonna be on the

636
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: outside more, which makes his position different than Danny A. Mendola.

637
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: I think amun Dola and Edelman are a little bit

638
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: more interchangeable, and I think Edelman is going to be

639
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: that guy that gets more of the the the Amundola

640
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,959
Speaker 1: style looks. I'm talking about the five yard ends, the

641
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: three yard outs. Therefore, I'd play Kimbrell Tompkins because of

642
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: the opportunity. All right, gentlemen, good stuff. That's our Patriots

643
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: two days. Thank you kindly. When NFL Fantasy Live returns,

644
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: it's time for some burning questions. Should you expect rebound

645
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 1: years from Aaron Foster and Julio Jones and is Russell

646
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: Wilson a top ten fantasy quarterback? Find that out next

647
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: yard star Bush and Andrew steps up, looks, strolls in

648
00:30:54,720 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 1: the middle, touchdown Reggie Gods. Take your draft to the

649

655
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 1: in flag Oh my friends, Molly Caram here with Marcus

656
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: Grant and Elliot Harrison. I love how you're just looking

657
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: at me like that. Been submitting all their tough fantasy

658
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: dilemmas on Twitter at NFL Fantasy, we always want to

659
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: hear from you, So how about we answer some all

660
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: we need to give the people what they want, all right?

661
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: Should we draft Julio Jones, who's finally healthy, or Antonio Brown,

662
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: who's pretty much the guy in the Steel City? Elliott,

663
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: I like Julio Jones. I think the Falcons are gonna

664
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: be in some track meets this year. I don't trust

665
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 1: their defense, and I don't really trust their running game,

666
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 1: and right now is DeVonta framing the guy? I trust

667
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: their passing game however. And Marcus, I think Antonio Brown

668
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: was great last year. I think it was great, but

669
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: I think Pittsburgh's gonna want to run the football more

670
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: than atlant And Julio Jones looks explosive. You've been watching

671
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: Knox go ahead and tell me why Julio Jones is

672
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: the right answer. But I'm gonna say that Antonio Brown

673
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: is the right answers. That's the problem here. I like

674
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: Brown because he is the main target right now for

675
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger in Pittsburgh. And I know they want to

676
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: work Marcus Wheaton into the offense a little bit more,

677
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 1: but until then, it's gonna be Brown getting a lot

678
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: of those targets and getting a lot of those catches.

679
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: I think Julio Jones is great. I do worry about

680
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: all the relapse of the injury. Plus you still have

681
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: Roddy White and Harry Douglas to deal with getting some

682
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: of those targets. There. Brown is the man in Pittsburgh.

683
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: You guys are so cute when you fight. Split decision there,

684
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: All right, complete this sentence for me. We'll begin with you. Marcus.

685
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 1: The earliest I would take Jimmy Graham is the absolute earliest,

686
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: would be the sixth pick. I probably more wait until

687
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: the seventh or eighth pick. I know it's only one sentence.

688
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: I know, I know it's only one more big difference,

689
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: but I would say absolute early. This would be six

690
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: way to make a definitive statement and then go middle

691
00:32:53,560 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: ground from Molly, I wouldn't earlier nights. I'm not going

692
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: earlier nine for a tight end. Okay, it's Jimmy Graham.

693
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's Jimmy Graham. I don't care

694
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: if I'm not going earlier than nine for a tight end.

695
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: It's not about production for me. It's about what our needs. Okay,

696
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 1: what can I get later in the draft. I can't

697
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: get running backs in round ten? Okay, I can get

698
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: Zach Hurts and round ten. Oh, by the way, I

699
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: did that in our draft last night. Yeah, how about

700
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 1: that cookies and cream. We'll see how that turns out.

701
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: All right? Would you go top ten for Arian Foster

702
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: new offense with Bill O'Brien topton running back? No, will

703
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: he be a top ten I think he's. I think

704
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: he's he's at the very bottom of that time. Let's

705
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: name order Lashaw McCoy, right, Jamal Charles, Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte,

706
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,479
Speaker 1: Eddie Lacy, Marshawn Lynch. Okay, now where you going? Now?

707
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,719
Speaker 1: You're getting a little bit dicey here. Maybe Doug Martin, Kay,

708
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris, Median Avermore. Okay, to Marco Murray, Marco Murray

709
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 1: starves nine. All right, So now it's between Geo Bernard,

710
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: Levy on Bell, Arian Foster for that ten home. I

711
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: put Foster in just at that timp spot. He just

712
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: edges out Levian Bell and and Giobert. I'm gonna have

713
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: to disagree with that. I think he's eleven. And who

714
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 1: do you think right now? I like Levian Bell a

715
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: little bit better and I like Gio Bernard a little

716
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: bit better. But it's parsonally because I can't trust his health.

717
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: I hate speculating on somebody getting hurt, seriously, but you

718
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: have to in with this guy. But I think this

719
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,439
Speaker 1: speaks a lot to what happens when you get past

720
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 1: those first five or six guys. It is just such

721
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 1: a muddle of running backs. After remember a couple of

722
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: years ago and Arian Foster was going for seventy bucks

723
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: in auction leagues. Seventy bucks. That was good though. I

724
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 1: really enjoyed list time. Thank you for breaking that down.

725
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: I was taking notes. Appreciate it. All right. We're getting

726
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 1: tons of questions about Russell Wilson. He won the Super Bowl.

727
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,760
Speaker 1: He finished eighth among quarterbacks and fantasy points. Tom Brady

728
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 1: finished fourteenth they just didn't point that up. Yeah, that's cool.

729
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,439
Speaker 1: Fans still aren't sure where to draft him. So let's

730
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 1: do a little rapid session and clear things up with

731
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson because we really don't talk about the guy.

732
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, we don't, all right, So would you

733
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:57,439
Speaker 1: draft Russell Wilson or Tony Romo? First? I'll go Tony Romo.

734
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: That defense is so bad, Marcus, he's going to have

735
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 1: to it up points for the Cowboys even compete. Yeah,

736
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: Tony Romos again. You know Scottland Hannon Dallas is gonna

737
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: look a lot like that Lions. Yeah, they're gonna be

738
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 1: playing from behind, all right. Would you draft Russell Wilson

739
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,439
Speaker 1: or Nick Foles? This is tough. This is a tough one.

740
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: I would probably go Wilson. I'm just afraid falls he's

741
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: gonna take a step back. That seven and two was

742
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: such a mirrage last year. They're gonna be a lot

743
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: more interceptions on that ledger this year. After I saw

744
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: him throw twenty nine balls in the first half of

745
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,479
Speaker 1: the preseason game the inter night, I'm taking Nick Foles.

746
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be airing it out, splitting hairs.

747
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 1: Really with that one. Would you draft Russell Wilson or

748
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: r G three? Elliott? This is about it. This is

749
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: a slam dun for me. I'm going Russell Wilson all

750
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: the way after seeing the way RG three has been planning. Yeah,

751
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:39,959
Speaker 1: what he said, I'm going Wilson. This mone what he said.

752
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,240
Speaker 1: What he said. We might even see some Kirk cousins.

753
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: Would you draft Russell Wilson or Matthew Stafford? Stafford, You're

754
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 1: gonna throw the ball like sis. Absolutely Stafford. They love

755
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 1: to air it out. Megatron, Golden Tate, a bunch of

756
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 1: tight ends. All right, for more on the wide receiver's

757
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: good stuff, guys, let's throw it over to James and

758
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 1: Fab's gentlemen. All right, it's time for Aness on the

759
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: Road presented by Courtyard by Marriott, James Co Michael Fabriano.

760
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the teams with the easiest

761
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: road schedules for wide receivers based on Fantasy points allowed.

762
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 1: Guess what you know? It's crazy about this in the

763
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: top five list. The entire NFC North that's on that

764
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 1: list bears Packers, Lins, Vikings, and then the Giants sneak

765
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: in there as well. The reason they're on that list.

766
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 1: We're talking about the NFC North is because they play

767
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 1: each other and they're all terrible against the past. Plus

768
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: they're playing the a f C or excuse me, the

769
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: NFC South New Orleans, Tampa Bay, Atlanta also terrible against

770
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 1: the past. For me, when you look at these schedules,

771
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: I really like these receivers in the NFC North schedule

772
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 1: has a little bit to do with value. It's not

773
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: the be all end all, but it is nice to

774
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: see a stat like that, especially when you're talking about

775
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 1: some of those wide receivers. Randall Cobb a guy that

776
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: should be a beneficiary here. I love Randall Cobb this year.

777
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 1: He's in a contract year. I say he has a

778
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 1: breakout campaign as the number two options in an offense

779
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers. He's playing a tough game against the Seahawks.

780
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: Maybe you want to sit them that week if you can.

781
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: But Lions, Bears, Saints, Vikings, Buccaneers, there's a lot of

782
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,800
Speaker 1: good matchups for Cobb. How about the Viking You mentioned

783
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: the Vikers? Corderoll Patterson an up and comer, a sleeper

784
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: if you will. Yeah, I don't know if you've heard,

785
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: but I got a little man crush Corderyl Patterson. I

786
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,760
Speaker 1: love this guy. The highest scoring wide receiver in fantasy

787
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: football over the last four weeks of his rookie season.

788
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: He's got the Rams, this Saints, the Packers, the Bucks,

789
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: the Bears, the Lions. I love those matchups. And you

790
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 1: know what I love Cordarrell Patters at Lions week fifteen

791
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: in that fantasy you know, playoffs right before you get

792
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. All right, how about you know

793
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz. This guy has been villified. But I'll tell

794
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: you what. You look at the schedule, I'm starting to

795
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: feel a little bit better about the Saltza King, no

796
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: doubt about that. You've got the Lions on there, the

797
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 1: Cowboys who are gonna just stink, as Elliott had said, defensively,

798
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: tough game against the Seahawks, with the Jags the Titans.

799
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:00,879
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz is someone I think could be a nice

800
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,280
Speaker 1: draft of value. He's gonna play the slot for the Giants.

801
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 1: Ben McNew's offenses, you'd like to utilize the slot receiver

802
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: like Randall Cobbin green Bay, So cruise someone who's coming

803
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: off the board in the fifth or sixth round. He

804
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: could be your wide receiver to maybe even a wide

805
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: receiver three if you focus on white outs early Lions, Redskins, Eagles,

806
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: Cowboys in the first seven weeks. Yes, and he gets

807
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 1: to play the Cowboys again too, which is always a

808
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: huge advantage in tasty road schedule for Victor Cruz. That

809
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 1: was Greatness on the Road presented by Courtyard by Marriott.

Speaker 1: com Slash Fantasy App. Let's like a look at your

819
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: wide receiver targets leader, not receptions, but targets. You see

820
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 1: Pierre Garson Andre Johnson in there. Uh, Even though Andre

821
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 1: Johnson has been a little bit reviled in the fantasy community. Listen,

822
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,320
Speaker 1: he catches a lot of footballs that name highlighted in

823
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: red Josh Boy and that's the big news today. Out

824
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 1: for the entire year, he had a hundred and fifty

825
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,239
Speaker 1: nine targets. I mean, the man was an absolutely six

826
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: hundred plus yards nine total touchdowns, did all his damage

827
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 1: in fourteen games. A little bit surprised see Calvin Johnson

828
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 1: near the bottom of that list considering how many UH

829
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 1: passes were thrown in that crazy offense. All right, welcome

830
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 1: back to NFL Fantasy Life presented by direct TV. James

831
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 1: go here alongside all the guys, let's talk about some

832
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: wide receivers that do get a ton of targets but

833
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 1: are currently undervalued based off of their A DPS. Andre Johnson.

834
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 1: I cannot harp on this enough. We're talking about a

835
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: guy even though they had an absolute mass at quarterback,

836
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: still did well in PPR, right exactly, And that's always

837
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: the argument. Well, Andre Johnson's quarterback stink. Well, guess what,

838
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: he still had eight with targets to lead. It's international

839
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 1: football leg at least to be tied. And people are

840
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 1: worried about him because he's getting up there in age.

841
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:20,280
Speaker 1: But honestly, I have no concerns about Andre Johnson because

842
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:23,479
Speaker 1: in standard leagues he's a wide receiver two in PPR leagues,

843
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 1: I could get him as a wide receiver too, and

844
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: he could put on top ten, top twelve numbers because

845
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: he is so targeted and the best option in that office. Elliott,

846
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 1: do you buy that argument that this guy can be

847
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 1: a wide receiver one? I buy it very, very lacking

848
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 1: confidence PPR leer. We're talking. I'm okay with it. I'd

849
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: be at the bottom end of that discussion. I you know,

850
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: I wonder when the career wall happens for this guy

851
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,359
Speaker 1: number one. It's year twelve. Number two. You have Ryan

852
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick as your distributor there, but or case keenom you know,

853
00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying, can also take at some

854
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: point for the team to win. DeAndre Hopkins has to develop,

855
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:03,800
Speaker 1: which would take away from Andrea And that was my

856
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: number three there on your list. Did DeAndre Hopkins I

857
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: think is ready to step up. Johnson still the number

858
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,760
Speaker 1: one guy, but Hopkins is gonna cut into that number. Marcus.

859
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,399
Speaker 1: We're gonna stay with you. Kendall right might be the

860
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: absolute most undervalued PPR wide receiver. The dude had ninety

861
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 1: four catches last year. People don't know about him. Right,

862
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:22,399
Speaker 1: We were talking. You know during the break that they're

863
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 1: probably a lot of fans out there who don't even

864
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 1: know he plays for the Titans. First of all, probably

865
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: some who don't even know who he is. Yet this

866
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 1: guy is a PPR. He's just a machine that doesn't

867
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 1: look it does not look like the guy that anyone

868
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: had apologize. The Titans quarterback situation has been unsettled. Jake

869
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 1: Locker has had trouble staying healthy. But no matter who

870
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: is slinging the rock, they keep looking for kindall right,

871
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,319
Speaker 1: and this might be the year people start to learn

872
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: this guy's name, because even in another year where the

873
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: quarterback situation is still kind of shaky, Kendall Rights still

874
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 1: constantly who started on the ball there? Elliott I saw that.

875
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,879
Speaker 1: I saw true be told Marcus stole Kindle right from

876
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 1: me in the meeting because I really like, I really

877
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: like what kN was and Hunt's gonna do for the

878
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 1: Titans offense. I totally agree with you on that one, alright.

879
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 1: Moving on Julian Edelman, the Patriots left or excuse me,

880
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,760
Speaker 1: let Wes Welker walked launches because they had Julian Edelman.

881
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,479
Speaker 1: He was the tenth most targeted receiver in the league

882
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: last year, just behind Calvin Johnson. For goodness sake, Elliot,

883
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: there's a lot to like about Julianette. There is, but

884
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily agree with your lead there. I think

885
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 1: a drop in the Super Bowl had a lot to

886
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 1: do with them saying see you later. But but maybe

887
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: not Julian Edelman. We mentioned him earlier in the show

888
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 1: for this guy's ADP two B in the ninth round

889
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 1: and you're getting a hundred catches and you had the

890
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,719
Speaker 1: possibility that Gronk isn't ready for week one. I just

891
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:46,280
Speaker 1: think that his value is upon fabs. You had three drafts.

892
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,399
Speaker 1: Last night. I was playing Dungeons and Dragons, but when

893
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,800
Speaker 1: I took a break, I thought about how undervalue Julian

894
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 1: Edelman is. What you giant prove there is that we

895
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 1: are huge dorks. True, true, But ninth round ADP on

896
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: a guy that catches a hundred balls, it's about it.

897
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: I think the problem with Edelman is that people are

898
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 1: worried that Gronk is back. At least were expecting me back.

899
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: Dobson's had a year under his belt, so it's Kenroll, Tomkins,

900
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 1: Danny Amidol is healthy at least right now. I understanderstand

901
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 1: its last year time Bready had no one to trust

902
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,879
Speaker 1: except for Edelman. Hopefully, for the Patriot's sake, he has

903
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,440
Speaker 1: more options. Can he repeat his performance from last year

904
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: under Catches? I think little, little too much? Much, a

905
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 1: little too much? Absolutely, Katie Catches ninety was split the difference.

906
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: That's still a PPR machine. That's true, It's very good.

907
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 1: It's a very good year. A guy that I'm huge on,

908
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 1: and Marcus, I know you feel the same way. Michael Floyd. Listen,

909
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 1: the guy only had sixty five catches last year, barely

910
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: broke a thousand yards. But tell me why people should

911
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:47,359
Speaker 1: get excited about Floyd. Well, when I talked to jol

912
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:50,760
Speaker 1: Brandon last week, yeah, he mentioned listen to you dropping

913
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 1: up quick. Um. One of these he said was that

914
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 1: he thinks Carson Palmer is gonna throw for five thousand

915
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: yards this year. I don't know if that's going to happen,

916
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 1: but I think the one thing is the Cardinals are

917
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 1: going to throw it a lot more this year, and

918
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: Michael Floyd, by the end of the year was closing

919
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: that gap on Larry Fitzgerald for that number one target

920
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 1: for Carson Palmer. I think this is the year Floyd

921
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: has a huge breakout season while people still worry about Fitzgerald.

922
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 1: While John Brown maybe sneaks in and occupy some some

923
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: attention for the defense. I think Michael Floyd is poised

924
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,919
Speaker 1: for a huge season. When speaks, you listen, you listen.

925
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,280
Speaker 1: There's so much to like. The size, the speed, the hands,

926
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 1: the power, the youth as well. I really really like

927
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald here. All right, that's gonna do it for us today.

928
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live is back tomorrow with an in depth

929
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 1: look where to find value at the tight end position.

930
