People said you'd never make it twenty 0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:37.280 six years, and we did seven years. That's the voice 0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:39.680 of my co host, Matt Harrison from Shock Fantasy and 0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:42.800 Scott Fish as well. High Scott, what's going on?

The last year over the 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:04.120 that's the last year. I want to thank the seven 0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:06.560 thousand hundred dollars that came from people that tried the 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:09.120 super job at gas links dot com were including me 0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:11.840 including thank you, yeah, I well, thank you personally for that. 0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:13.759 Thank you very much for for being a part of it, 0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:16.039 which is great. There's plenty to get to over the 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:19.399 course of this edition of Fantasy Football Weekly. Will start 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.040 the show by telling you the one thing you need 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:25.080 to know about every team's off season. We will then 0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:28.399 give you the training camp battles that we are watching 0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:31.480 throughout training camp. We're into training camps now, but here 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:35.560 are the battles that are particular note to fantasy owners. 0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:39.200 Then we'll look at the Dynasty and Empire rookie drafts, 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:41.520 will go through the average draft position for the first 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:43.560 two rounds, and we'll tell you if people are taking 0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:47.520 these players too early, too late, or at just about 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:50.680 the right time. We'll also answer three tough questions. We'll 0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:52.360 get to all of our sleepers, and we'll give you 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:54.480 some ideas about what to do with that extra week 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:58.400 that's on your schedule now that the NFL has employed 0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:01.880 the seventeen week see reason. So plenty of good stuff 0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:05.960 to get to. Let's begin by going through the one 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:08.359 thing you need to know about every team's off season. Now. 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:11.200 The way I've asked my co host Scott and Matt 0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:14.360 to handle this is not the most obvious thing, not 0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:18.680 necessarily the biggest thing, Like Aaron Rodgers is now in camp. 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:22.200 That's not everybody knows that what we want to go with, 0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:24.800 the stuff you need, the one thing you need to 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:30.440 know about each team. We begin with Scott and the 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:32.840 Carolina Panthers. Yeah, I'm not going to keep it to 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:36.200 one because I'm terrible at this and I don't bother. Uh. 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:39.480 Donald is looking great, but Terrace Marshall is just ripping 0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:44.240 up camp. And there's a great, great connection with Dan 0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:47.040 Arnold in camp right now that the Beat writers keep 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:50.919 talking those two receivers, keep an eye for him lately, 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:53.639 late late in your draft. All right, Matt. The Las 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:57.080 Vegas Raiders offensive line went through a massive overhaul, and 0:02:57.120 --> 0:03:00.280 not necessarily for the better. The Raiders let three starters 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:05.080 go this offseason. They'll have an unproven center, likely Andre James, 0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:08.160 who had a Pro Football Focus grade of twenty four, 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:12.400 replacing Rodney Hudson who was a seventy three UH, and 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:16.000 then first round pick Alex Leatherwood, Richie Incognito who was 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:18.440 injured most of the last year, and Denzel Good who 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:21.840 should be named Denzel slightly below average after his rank 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:25.359 of fifty nine among eighty four guards last year. It's 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:29.040 gonna be a offensive line that's in flux all year 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:31.960 and it's going to be bad for the Raiders. And 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.399 usually when you're when you turn over the offensive line 0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:36.320 to that degree, it takes half a season before they 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:39.680 start to gell for the Packers. Often fantasy analysts will 0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:43.839 talk about vacated targets, and it's almost always within the 0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:47.000 purview of wide receivers and tight ends. But I want 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:50.240 to talk about Jamal Williams, who leaves behind forty targets 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:54.200 thirty receptions in two forty receiving yards last year, and 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:57.720 now with Jamal Williams gone from Green Bay, where those 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.680 targets going well, A J. Dillon does and catch have 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:03.880 three targets all of last year. Almost all of that 0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:07.120 work probably goes to Aaron Jones, who could vault his 0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:11.040 receiving numbers from the forty receptions into like the sixties 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:15.440 or seventies receptions, at which point he turns into Christian McCaffrey. 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.560 Let's go to the Washington football team. He just easily 0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:23.960 turns into McCaffrey. I'm Christian McCaffrey. Supposedly, Ryan Fitzpatrick and 0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:27.120 Taylor Heineker are in a true battle for that starter job. 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:29.800 They did pay fits a ton of money, so I 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:32.760 think he'll start out, but Fits he's he's gonna have 0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:36.160 someone possibly coming in form later, sooner than later. One 0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:38.919 the frequent frustrations with Fits is that he's not a 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.720 great practice quarterback. He's a game day quarterback. The other 0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:45.320 thing is when he's given the reins, that's when he falters. 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:49.480 It's when he comes in. Is when you're right, Buffalo Bills, 0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:51.080 what's the one thing people need to know about the 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:54.440 team's offseason? People are overlooking Zack Moss and he's ready 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:56.440 to be the bell cow there and only eight fully 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.200 healthy games last year where he wasn't on the injury report. 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:02.960 Four point six yards per touch and five touchdowns uh 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:06.080 and he was tied with Josh Allen in rushing attempts 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.680 from the infrared zone inside the ten with fifteen. He 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:14.080 was also Pro Football Focus his highest graded pass blocker 0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:17.160 amongst running backs last year, with an Elite eighty nine 0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:20.520 point nine grade compared to Devin Singletary at forty five. 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:23.400 Moss has a chance to be a three down back 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:25.560 this year. I love it. And he's going so late. 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:28.960 Next to Houston Texans. With the loss of Will Fuller 0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:32.200 and Randall Cobb, the Texans have one three vacated targets 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:34.839 to account for. Brandon Cooks got a hundred nineteen targets 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:36.400 last year, so you can maybe get a few more, 0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:38.799 but not a lot. I think it's really worth watching 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:44.839 the other position battles at wide receiver rookie Nico Collins, 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:47.120 as as is being described as having one of the 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:49.120 best camps of any rookie. He's going off the board 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:54.359 as wide receiver one hundred sixty eight Nico Collins. He 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:56.400 might be a week one starter for a team that's 0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:59.159 gonna be perpetually behind. He's a week one starter. Kick 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.120 Cute's going off the board at wide receiver two D two. 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:07.400 I don't even know there's no league that drafts two 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:10.799 wide receivers. So those are guys that you could watch 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:13.640 get late and we'll have the advantage of picking up 0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:16.320 some of those vacated targets. Let's go to the Tampa 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:20.159 Bay Buccaneers. Yeah, so, I think the big one here 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:23.560 is not only was Joe Bernard recruited by Tom Brady, 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:26.120 but apparently he's getting up to speed in camp and 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.880 they really like what they're seeing. Making an even bigger 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:32.320 mess out of that running back situation. And possibly one 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:35.520 to avoid or grab the cheapest. I'm a Ronald Jones guy. 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:39.000 Let's go to the Cleveland Browns. Matt Cleveland's tight ends 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:42.960 were targeted on thirty percent of Baker Mayfield's throws last season, 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:45.120 which was good for third highest share in the league. 0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:48.040 And Austin Hooper is currently going off the board is 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:50.520 tight end twenty three, which is the last round in 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:53.880 your draft. He was also targeted forty times in the 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:58.120 Brown's final five games with the two playoff games included, 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:01.200 and had three touchdown catches in the span. Also, the 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:04.600 Browns have Pro Football focus, is highest rated old line, 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:06.920 so Hooper is not expected to stay in and block 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:10.120 as much. I kind of like Hooper is a deep 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.200 sleeper this year. All right, we'll go to the Indianapolis Colts. 0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:14.920 You guys already know the big story. Carson Wentz and 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:18.760 Quentin Nelson are both have had foot surgery. Expected to 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:21.240 miss a fair amount of time. Quentin Nelson, I think 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:24.520 it's September. Carson Wentz probably October, just based on the mobility. 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:27.800 They need to play their positions. Jacob Eson is the 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:31.760 expected starter. Let's go to the Detroit Lions. So Hockinson 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:33.760 has been the best playing camp. I don't know if 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:35.440 a lot of people have been hearing that, but the 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:38.160 big news, the big news has been Campbell and Lynn 0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:42.840 have consistently commented multiple times this offseason and during cramp 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:46.440 camp that Swift and Williams will be a one two 0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:50.160 punch and share and they've even made the dreaded hot hand. 0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:55.200 So be aware of that. That is something to be 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.840 aware of. Let's go to the New York Jets, completely 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:02.480 new offense, new offensive coordinator, Mike Lafleur, Matt's brother, Zack Wilson, 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.920 Michael Carter, Elijah More, Corey Davis, Elijah vera Tucker at guard. 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.239 But I wanted to mention Elijah Moore for a minute. 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:11.320 He was the thirty fourth overall pick. Jets beat writers 0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:15.040 are going bonkers over him. The athletics Connor Hughes says 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:20.080 he's the jets best player, not wide receiver player. On 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:24.000 one targets at Old Miss last year, he was charged 0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:26.880 with only two drops and he has a list on 0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:29.960 his bathroom mirror of all the wide receivers drafted ahead 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:35.160 of him and he looks at it every day. I 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:39.760 kind of like that Old Marie Jones jew thing right, 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:43.080 he did that too, something similar maybe I know, you 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:45.439 know Randy Moss, you know, like remembered every team that 0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:47.960 passed on him in the draft. I remember that in 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:50.760 Kansas City. Last time we saw the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes 0:08:50.760 --> 0:08:54.120 is getting bulldozed in the Super Bowl. So wisely they 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:57.360 overhauled their offensive line. They released long time tackles Eric 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:01.240 Fisher and Mitchell Schwartz. The Chiefs traded for Ravens starting 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:04.120 tackle Orlando Brown, and Brown has gotten better every year. 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:06.319 He's a very good pass blocker in particular. The other 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:09.400 big move was signing left guard Joe Thuney and free agency. 0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:12.360 He's developed into one of the NFL's best guards. And 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.240 then the right guard. They actually have a battle there 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:17.960 between doctor Laurent duvern A tard If, the guy who 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:22.320 opted out to work is a frontline healthcare worker last year, 0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:26.320 and the unretired Kyle Long. So you know that's real 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:31.080 significant improvement. Yeah, you know, it's it's it's it was 0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:33.200 a brilliant offseason. And I think, by the way, they 0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:35.360 also changed the upgrade of their centered Austin Blight from 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:37.880 the Ramps. So Chiefs are in a great spot this year. 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.520 Let's go to the Seattle Seahawks. Yeah, I'm gonna go 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:43.079 a little deeper here, something that's not talked about as much, 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:45.520 but the Seahawks want to run a whole lot more 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:48.760 they want this year for some reason. And d J. 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:51.480 Dallas has been getting all the third down passing role 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:53.680 work and they talked about him as being the change 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:55.800 of base, come in on third ground, third down for 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:58.840 Carson guy. If that's true late in drafts, he might 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:01.000 be a value for those guys people if you miss on, 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:02.839 you know, starting running backs. All right, let's go to 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:04.800 the Denver Broncos. The one thing people need to know 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:08.000 from the off season. We'll talk about the quarterback controversy later, 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:10.439 but George Payton is building the Broncos in a Mike 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:14.000 Zimmer fashion, beefing up the secondary and also drafting the 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:16.320 air apparent in the second round at running back in 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:21.120 Javonte Williams. With Drew Lock ranking first in NFL interceptions 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:25.000 and thirty fet and catchable pass rates, and Teddy Bridgewater 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:28.000 not seen as a downfield threat, this team sets up 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.880 to run at a top five clip with Williams and 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:35.079 Melvin Gordon. I've got the rams. You know the story 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:37.240 on cam Akers already out for the year. Let's talk 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:41.320 about Darryl Henderson, the third round pick from who lost 0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:44.760 his job to Acres last year. Head coach Sean McVeigh 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:47.280 says that Henderson's in every down back, but also notes 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:51.240 that durability is a concern. Last year, in his nine 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:55.720 games with at least twenty five snaps, Henderson averaged fifty 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:58.160 four rushing yards fourteen receiving yards in four and half 0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:00.640 yards per carry, which is kind of like right in 0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:04.040 the right in the middle. Worrisome to me, though, Henderson 0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:07.719 was notably worse than lee average and positive run rate, 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:11.120 worse in yards after contact, worse in catch rate. He's 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:16.079 now going roughly the fourth round for Darryl Henderson. There's 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:18.079 if he's he needs to be a materially better back 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:19.880 than the guy that we saw last year. Let's go 0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:25.319 to the Philadelphia Eagles. Scott Yes, So Philadelphia Eagles. Jalen 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:28.760 Reagors just getting healthiest. Devanta Smith injures his m c 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:30.800 L and will miss a few weeks, but he should 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:33.640 be ready for this season. But I think the bigger 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:36.000 news is the offense. They're They're catering the offense to 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.560 Earth's that's the plan. That's what they're installing. An offense 0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:42.560 that with Kata cat to hurts skills. Um, so I'm 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:44.079 starting to like him a lot more if they're not 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.600 gonna try to shoehorn and an old offense in there. 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:48.800 Let's go to the Miami Dolphins. What's the one thing 0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:52.840 people need to know from their off season? The Miami Dolphins. 0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:57.800 Chan Gailey is gone and co offensive coordinators Eric Stoodsville 0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:01.520 and George Godzi spent the entire off season developing an 0:12:01.559 --> 0:12:04.520 offense around Tua and at Bama, Ta had the top 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:08.480 pass rating in the country in nineteen on throws between 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:12.880 one and nineteen yards, relying heavily on yak that's yards 0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:14.960 after catch. They brought in Will Fuller and his five 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:19.920 point five YAK and drafted noted yakker Jalen Waddle leads 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:21.559 me to believe it's going to be a short, pass 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:24.760 heavy offense for the Dolphins this year. In Minnesota, they 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:26.960 spent first and third round picks on their offensive line 0:12:26.960 --> 0:12:29.920 in an effort to improve one of the league's worst lines. 0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:34.400 But Christian Derris Saw and why Davis Bose both missed 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:37.240 the entire off season program, and they've been in and 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:40.680 out of the lineups in training camp as well. Fantasy 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:42.959 owners need to be prepared for the prospect of a 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:46.800 Vikings offensive line that could even be worse than last year's, 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:50.720 particularly early on in the season. Let's go to the 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.800 Dallas Cowboys. What's the one thing Scott that people need 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:57.320 to know? So, uh, we've all seen to the wide 0:12:57.320 --> 0:12:59.880 receivers are doing a ton in practice. That's that's great now, 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:03.040 but the plan is to be more conservative with Dac. 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:06.120 Apparently he's he's got a slight injury right now, possibly 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:09.000 running less, so maybe those six touchdowns rushing are are 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:11.839 going to be gone this season. And they've they're also 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:14.480 talking about lightning Zeke's roll throughout the season with the 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:17.000 playoffs in mind, and I think that's a very important 0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:20.280 thing to know. Let's go to the New England Patriots, Matt. 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:22.520 They're the most run heavy team in the league last 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:25.240 nger Cam Newton and Bill Belichick does not want you 0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:27.080 to believe that was going to happen again this year. 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:30.160 They added John U, JOHNU Hunter, Henry Nelson Aglar, and 0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:32.680 Kendrick Born in free agency and did You know that 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:36.920 Kendrick Borne, as the nondescript fourth wide receiver in San Francisco, 0:13:37.000 --> 0:13:39.640 would have tied for the team lead in red zone 0:13:39.679 --> 0:13:44.120 targets with ten, and John Wu had seventeen and Hunter 0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:46.960 Henry had fourteen and Cam only through thirty six passes 0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:49.839 inside the twenty last year. They're going to throw more 0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:52.319 inside the red zone. Whether or not it's Cam is 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:54.319 yet to be seen. Though. I'm warming up to John 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:56.120 U Johnu again, and you guys are gonna get sick 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:58.560 of about me here hearing about me talk about him 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:01.760 this preseason as well. There's very long track history of 0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:03.840 you know, top five tight ends being the number one 0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:06.360 or number two options on their team. John is almost 0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:08.199 guaranteed to be that on his team. I think he 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.160 I think he is. Let's go to the Saints there 0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:12.600 in the middle of a quarterback battle between Taysom Hill 0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:15.520 and Jamis Winston. Sean Payton had previously said that both 0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:17.719 quarterbacks will get time with the first team. Um, and 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:20.040 they are doing that, but there's no early indication who's 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:22.440 gonna win this job. But fantasy owners should be rooting 0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:26.080 for Jameis Winston here. He's had keep in mind we 0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:29.280 are one year removed from him being QB one in 0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:33.040 many scoring systems, when in his mythical thirty thirty year, 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:35.360 when if you really get out some track for interceptions, 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:39.280 Jameis Winston was probably the top scoring quarterback in twenty nineteen. 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:42.480 Where we're less than a year removed from taste Hill 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:46.240 having a bunch of QB one games in relief last 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.200 its true look's the one thing people need to know 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:52.400 from the Giants. So I'm most people I'm sure know 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.720 about Si Kwon Barkley. They're taking it easy. There's been 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:56.680 reports that he might not they might ease him back 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:58.840 so slow we might not see him till we three. 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:00.560 That's not what I want to mention here. What I 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.760 want to mention here, Okay, let's see how I go 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:07.080 to It's like the eight plus is Sterling Shepherd has 0:15:07.120 --> 0:15:08.640 been the stand up at camp and a lot of 0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:11.520 people wonder who's that receiver that you should have after Golliday, 0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:14.040 it seems like it's it's Shepherd. It's not. It's not 0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:15.600 any of the other options. I don't have his a 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.360 DP in front of me, but man, it's he's going 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:22.200 like round Sterling Shepherd. You'll be able to get him 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:24.400 very late and Kenny Golladay may not even start the season. 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:29.360 What's the one thing people need to know from the Texans? Titans? Titans? 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:31.960 Thank you? There we go. According to Warren Sharp, the 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.600 Titans ran the ball only four percent of the time 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:40.200 last year when trailing, four percent compared to the average 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:43.760 of thirty five. Okay. And their defense is bad and 0:15:43.800 --> 0:15:47.360 it's still bad ranking and defensive efficiency by Pro Football 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:50.960 Focus and expected points allowed per play. And they cut 0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:53.920 both starting corners, but dupri was their big ad in 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:56.560 free agency. This tells me this defense is going to 0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.720 be bad, and this offense is going to throw all 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:03.280 year to Julio and a j. Brown. That could end 0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:05.480 up happening every A lot of people really like Tannehill 0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:08.680 this year in Pittsburgh. The offensive line is ranked twenty 0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:11.360 nine by Pro Football Focus and the team barely addressed 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:13.920 it in the off season. It's got four new starters 0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:17.640 and one returning starter who's playing out a position. Last year, 0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:21.320 Ben Roethlisberger had the shortest time to throw of all 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:24.680 quarterbacks in the league, two point three seconds. That's it. 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:28.560 And I don't know how your te how your offense 0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:31.240 can get that much better when your lines this bad. 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:34.480 A lot of concern over the offensive line that did 0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:37.440 not get addressed adequately by the Steelers in the off season. 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:40.520 Let's go to the Atlanta Falcon Scott. Yeah, so I'm 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:42.520 gonna go to the running back position here where Mike 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:44.720 Davis is the starter. But do we know that he 0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:47.720 can be the full role? So who's who's the second back? There? 0:16:48.720 --> 0:16:53.360 They have court Darryl Patterson listed as running back and 0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:58.000 he's getting the reps in front of Quadria Allison whose 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:01.440 career longest run is six yards, and a very small 0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:04.480 rookie and Javian Hawkins. We might see a world where 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:08.560 Cordarrell Patterson is it running back in fantasy this year? 0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:11.480 I can fall forward for six yards? Well yeah, I 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:14.159 mean two of you could. Let's go to the Cincinnati Bengals. 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:16.840 What's the one thing people need to know? Red alert 0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:20.879 the athletics since Beat writers Jay Morrison and Paul Dana 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:25.440 reported earlier this week that the offense is an absolute disaster. 0:17:25.840 --> 0:17:28.359 The pass rush continue to break through the offensive line. 0:17:28.520 --> 0:17:32.159 Nearly every pass that wasn't wildly off the mark was 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:36.840 heavily contested, broken up, or intercepted. Multiple turnovers are happening 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:39.760 during every practice. Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins are losing 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:43.640 battles with Eli Apple, Jamaar Chase is dropping wide open passes, 0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:46.879 and the Bengals have a bad defense. So this isn't 0:17:46.920 --> 0:17:50.560 like a great defense they're going against. It's bad. And 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:53.440 since right now, let's hope it changes because Burrow is 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:55.840 going to be running if that offensive line can't protect him. 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:59.080 So all the Jamar Chase one handed highlights, they're they're 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:02.080 they're glossy over the bad stuff that's going on in 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:04.760 San Francisco. I'm tempted to talk about the quarterback situation, 0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:06.720 but everybody's tracking it really closely, and I think you 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:09.359 know that and we might talk about it. Next segment 0:18:09.400 --> 0:18:11.920 was drafted right. You know it's gonna come up again soon, 0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.480 but let me mention it's The Niners offensive line got 0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:17.000 two key boosts in the off season. They re signed 0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:20.320 left tackle Trent Williams and then they acquired veterans center 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:23.320 Alex Mack. Trent Williams was the number one ranked tackle 0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:27.480 last year. Alex mac is a steady veteran line gets 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:30.280 even better in the off season. Scott, what's the one 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:32.399 thing people need to know about the Cardinals. A j 0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:36.040 Green has been lights out in camp, leading many to 0:18:36.119 --> 0:18:39.760 speculate the last year's issues were lack of effort and 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:43.080 not wanting to be there anymore rather than being washed. 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.399 Uh insert Kaiser so say straightening his leg out me 0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:52.040 as he walks to Arizona. Uh, let's go to Jacksonville, Matt. 0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:54.480 The Jags ranked thirty second in the league and rushing 0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:57.399 attempts last year. And you insert Urban Meyer and Darryl 0:18:57.440 --> 0:19:02.639 Bevil and Travis En. That's how he pronounced it. Okay, alright, 0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:05.560 yeah he would know. Yeah. According to Pro Football Focus 0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:08.800 in and twenty while with the Lions, Bevel ranked eleventh 0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:12.479 in the NFL among offensive coordinators in neutral game script 0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:15.879 run play rate. The Lions also ran the ball at 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:18.080 the eleventh highest clip from inside the five, and Urban 0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:20.960 Meyers a long track record of using quarterbacks to run 0:19:21.000 --> 0:19:23.520 the ball from inside the five yard line. In Baltimore, 0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:25.439 there's a lot of flux at the wide receiver position. 0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:28.240 The team drafted Rishadde Bateman, who has looked very good 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:31.240 so our in training camp. Baltimore brought in Sammy Watkins, 0:19:31.320 --> 0:19:36.879 a perpetual career long underperformer, Watkins and Bateman likely battle 0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:39.160 for a starting spot. Marcus Brown has got a significant 0:19:39.160 --> 0:19:41.320 hamstring injury. You need to watch. He may not be 0:19:41.359 --> 0:19:43.719 available for the start of the season and or and 0:19:43.880 --> 0:19:46.439 or may miss a bunch of time. And Miles Boykin 0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:49.960 might be cut allgether, which is a bumber. He was 0:19:50.000 --> 0:19:51.840 one of my one of my deep sleepers at this 0:19:51.880 --> 0:19:55.199 time last year. Hoops, all right, two teams, What is 0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:57.280 the one thing people need to know about the Chicago Bears. 0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:00.880 Damian Williams is impressing as a rece ever, while tree 0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:04.680 Cone is still out, He's got that number two running 0:20:04.680 --> 0:20:07.080 back role between the tackles locked up. Now it looks 0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:09.200 like he might get some passing work. I just drafted 0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:13.680 him in mattch Empire League. And finally the Chargers, Oh, 0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:17.840 it's passing time because new offensive coordinator Joel Lombardi loves 0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:20.520 the pass. The Chargers already led the NFL in plays 0:20:20.560 --> 0:20:23.520 per game last season, and in Lombardi's short tenure as 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:26.080 the Lions o C, he had them passed the ball 0:20:26.080 --> 0:20:29.920 in sixty percent of plays. At that clip. Justin air, 0:20:30.000 --> 0:20:35.480 Bear would be throwing forty six passes per game and 0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:38.520 would be on pace for five thousand, seven twenty yards 0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:41.640 and forty one touchdowns in a seventeen game year. It's 0:20:41.720 --> 0:20:47.320 air Bear time, Bear time. You can you can draft 0:20:47.400 --> 0:20:49.320 him in a Guillotine League if you like.
