Speaker 1: Greg Saucepan Frank as Buddy Greggy. Happy hump day to you, buddy.
Speaker 1: Lots to talk about. We've got a bit of a
Speaker 1: fantasy football pot pourri. We're gonna jump all around today.
Speaker 1: How you doing, buddy? How you sleep? That's what happens
Speaker 1: in weeks twelve when there's only so much to talk about.
Speaker 1: Um I slept great to be honest with you. We
Speaker 1: had a lot going on here last night, as you know,
Speaker 1: I was up late watching Sports Grade on Pluto Channel
Speaker 1: five seventeen ding and it was great. It looks great,
Speaker 1: it sounded great, You look great. So I slept great.
Speaker 1: Thanks man. How's everything else going? All right? Man? It's
Speaker 1: going to right. Uh. The better question is for you
Speaker 1: everybody out there, is do you let's go all in?
Speaker 1: Then we are all in on bow Scarborough. Man, It's
Speaker 1: not like you know, I didn't just spend forty two
Speaker 1: dollars on Thy Johnson about a month ago, so you
Speaker 1: know what can go wrong outside of everything you know,
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson, J J. Mckissie didn't. It didn't matter, It
Speaker 1: didn't stop us. Everywhere I did on Bow, I got bo.
Speaker 1: I severely underestimate or overestimated the market for Bow Scarborough.
Speaker 1: So what was the next closest bit in your home
Speaker 1: legund So I've been thirty dollars. As you know, he
Speaker 1: went for ten dollars. Sorry, the next closes there was
Speaker 1: ten dollars. Well, we got him in third for thirty
Speaker 1: one dollars. In the Pit League, which features a few
Speaker 1: of the analysts here on the network, spit in speeds
Speaker 1: Fantasy TASJ to Day, the closer. We spent thirty one dollars,
Speaker 1: We spent thirty three dollars. Three dollars. We want them
Speaker 1: right the next closest bid, so pretty similar enough, thirty
Speaker 1: intent the same discrepences. You know what everyone else? Why
Speaker 1: was that? Is this going to be so sad when
Speaker 1: they miss out on? Because I've put in the mid
Speaker 1: I've been in both beds, the thirty and the thirty three.
Speaker 1: You were like, I don't know sixteen, Like I want
Speaker 1: to go to three that would have won them. We
Speaker 1: had a lot of money left, though, so why not
Speaker 1: spend We say, you can't take it with you right
Speaker 1: when it comes to fab you gotta spend your money.
Speaker 1: You gotta get players, especially us, right like we had
Speaker 1: Frank Gore third running back on this team. We need
Speaker 1: a running back help. So what are you saving your
Speaker 1: money for. You gotta go out and get Bow. You
Speaker 1: gotta go out and get your colts running backs whoever
Speaker 1: it is. Are your rankings done yet? I need chance,
Speaker 1: got a chance. I need to know where Bow ranks here.
Speaker 1: I need to But you know, it's it's a very
Speaker 1: busy time for for both you and me. So going on,
Speaker 1: it's it's busy right at the National days. Well to
Speaker 1: night we'll tell you where both Scarborough ranks in France
Speaker 1: running back rankings. Obviously, I have a lot of questions
Speaker 1: for me, like where is he compared to Jalen Samuel.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Hopefully Frank's gonna tell me. That's kind
Speaker 1: of my main question here. Hopefully I can tell you
Speaker 1: as well tomorrow. So over the next hour or so,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talking about other players that were picked up
Speaker 1: off the waiver wire and how much they went for,
Speaker 1: because it's interesting, Like, I know it's week twelve, I
Speaker 1: know we have a buy and I know you said
Speaker 1: you can't take your fab with you or you take
Speaker 1: that number one waiver claim with you. All Right, it
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like people were overly aggressive this week. Doesn't
Speaker 1: it feel like kind of save that Maybe they're saving
Speaker 1: it for the playoffs and NFC you can't, but like
Speaker 1: most hopefully you can you spend the same fabuty did.
Speaker 1: People were liver more cautious this week than I thought
Speaker 1: they would be. I think a lot of people have
Speaker 1: been burned by the Lions running backs and this cold
Speaker 1: situation is a tough one to figure out. We don't
Speaker 1: know who the main running back is going to be.
Speaker 1: It's a running back by committee. If Jordan Wilkins plays
Speaker 1: in that game, we're looking at three different running backs
Speaker 1: involved against a not so great matchup against the Houston Texans.
Speaker 1: So I think that there's not really a standout Waiver
Speaker 1: Wire edition this week. I mean, we really like Bo
Speaker 1: Scarborough is a standing nobody else like. But you know,
Speaker 1: if you're already set it running back, which I don't
Speaker 1: really know how you can be like based on the
Speaker 1: running back landscape, but there might be a few teams
Speaker 1: out there that have some have enough running backs that
Speaker 1: they don't need both Scarbro. So you know, maybe you
Speaker 1: save your money till week thirteen. You see, Look, all
Speaker 1: you need is one injury, Greg. That's all it takes, right,
Speaker 1: If someone gets hurt this week, then you know we
Speaker 1: could have another running back ad we could have. You know,
Speaker 1: if a wide receiver steps up, whatever it might be.
Speaker 1: You know, there's not a an awesome wide receiver pick
Speaker 1: up this week. We talked about Hunter Rent for Taylor
Speaker 1: gel More. I think about it, the more James Washington, Yeah,
Speaker 1: so the more I think I disagree because I think
Speaker 1: James Washington probably is that guy. If both starting wide
Speaker 1: receivers are out for the Steelers, it's all James Washington.
Speaker 1: That's what it comes down to. You don't gonna throw
Speaker 1: it at all. Mason Rudolph is very bad. Greg bad
Speaker 1: is like Dwayne Haskins level bad. Where's that bad? He's
Speaker 1: very bad. Some were interceptions last week. It takes the
Speaker 1: Bengal and you don't have James Conner, you don't have Juju,
Speaker 1: you don't have Deona day Johnson McDonald's week. They have
Speaker 1: to move down the field somehow, and I have to
Speaker 1: imagine that's Jalen Samuels. Is why I brought that up
Speaker 1: against postcar Bro because I have them both and James Washington, like,
Speaker 1: maybe we underestimated this. James Washington think a little bit.
Speaker 1: I think that the opportunity is going to be there,
Speaker 1: the volume is gonna be there. But again, I just
Speaker 1: don't really trust the play of Mason Rudolph. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think James Washington will be a fine, you know,
Speaker 1: low end wide receiver. Three. Again, I haven't done my
Speaker 1: rankings yet, but I imagine he'll be somewhere around there,
Speaker 1: you know, right around that forty wide receiver mark. But
Speaker 1: ultimately it's not like you know, we went through the
Speaker 1: game long for Juju yesterday. It's not like he's been
Speaker 1: good Deontay Johnson. He's popped off a few games here
Speaker 1: and there, but he hasn't been consistent. Now, maybe this
Speaker 1: is the week where obviously they can't throw to anybody else.
Speaker 1: You know, we do get some you know, some opportunity
Speaker 1: here for for James Washington. It's a good matchup against
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals, But ultimately it's how much do you
Speaker 1: want to trust these guys with Mason Rudolph thrown them
Speaker 1: the ball. Yeah, you're probably right, but especially with bye
Speaker 1: weeks to four big teams as you mentioned with the Cardinals,
Speaker 1: with the Vikings, with the Chargers and the Chiefs, like
Speaker 1: you're losing quality players there and you get desperate. It's
Speaker 1: even on teams that are I have, that are pretty
Speaker 1: good that I'm getting desperate here this week. You know,
Speaker 1: I look at the Giants were startling Shepherd's back. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about him um in a few moments. You look
Speaker 1: at the Falcons, who are gonna be without Austin Hooper.
Speaker 1: This week already an now, so we's talk about that
Speaker 1: coming up in a few moments. You've gotta you have
Speaker 1: a lot that you have to fill in, even if
Speaker 1: your team is pretty good. And I'm just wondering if
Speaker 1: James Washington, if Bo Scarborough and if these cults running
Speaker 1: backs just talk about a moment as well fit that mold. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, thank god this is the final week of
Speaker 1: bye weeks, Graig, because you know it's week twelve here.
Speaker 1: But the teams that are on by, It's not that
Speaker 1: we have a crazy amount of teams, but the teams
Speaker 1: that are on by have really good players on them, right,
Speaker 1: So we're missing out on Patrick Mahomes, Kelsey Tyreek Hill,
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook, all the Chargers players, they're running backs. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of very fantasy viable players that are
Speaker 1: on by this week. So yeah, it is making life
Speaker 1: very difficult for a lot of owners. Let's talk more
Speaker 1: about some of these injuries. Will get to this whole Potboury.
Speaker 1: We're bouncing around for the next hour, stick around, you'll
Speaker 1: be at VAFS rolled on and after this, I want

Speaker 1: Greg Susman hanging out here. I was just reading during
Speaker 1: the break, Frank, it's a lie. I wasn't. What were
Speaker 1: you reading? Greg? I was lying, I was. I was
Speaker 1: reading about a lotta falcons, and you know, this coach
Speaker 1: speak thing really bothers us I think it's very frustrated.
Speaker 1: So yesterday or they before Queen comes out and it's like, hey,
Speaker 1: feeling really good about Devanti Freeman and Austin Hooper feeling good.
Speaker 1: I'm optimistic. That's not always sounds, but that's how it
Speaker 1: sounds in my head. Devant Freeman need in practice today,
Speaker 1: and again it's Wednesday. Whatever, we don't care. Auston Hooper
Speaker 1: not only did he not practice today, he's been rolled
Speaker 1: out for this week or ready rolled out on a Wednesday.
Speaker 1: How do you feel like Austin Hooper's trending in the
Speaker 1: right direction if he was already ruled out on a Wednesday? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure, gret. I think that half the time
Speaker 1: these coaches are just trolling the media. It's like, what
Speaker 1: are they gonna say? Obviously they're not going to try
Speaker 1: and reveal anything from their game plan for the week,
Speaker 1: like they want the team that they're facing off against
Speaker 1: to think, all right, maybe there's a chance that Davanta
Speaker 1: Freeman does play, So let's you know, carve out a
Speaker 1: game plan if DeVante Freeman plays, but if not, you know,
Speaker 1: here's our game plan if Brian Hill plays. You know,
Speaker 1: so things change obviously, And I think that, you know,
Speaker 1: as why has wide open as you leave things, you know,
Speaker 1: that just leaves more game planning for the opposing team.
Speaker 1: And I think that half the time, you know, that's
Speaker 1: what these coaches are trying to do, right, Like they're
Speaker 1: trying to outsmart the other coach and have time to
Speaker 1: just end up outsmarting themselves. So this comes with the territory, man,
Speaker 1: just you know, we we try to wager on the games.
Speaker 1: We try to figure out what teams are gonna do
Speaker 1: from a fantasy football perspective, and you know this is
Speaker 1: part of the navigation process. It certain it certainly is.
Speaker 1: So a lot of what I wanted to talk about
Speaker 1: on today's show was typically we do that you sucking,
Speaker 1: we know it on a Wednesday. But to me, it's
Speaker 1: not you sucking. We know it, but it's your death
Speaker 1: spring and we know it. And that's where I get
Speaker 1: to the Austin Hooper thing, where if you are in
Speaker 1: a playoff position where you're making the playoffs, you go
Speaker 1: and you know that already. Do you go to a
Speaker 1: desperate owner that is trying to make the playoffs and say, hey,
Speaker 1: I want Austin Hooper Like is he somebody that you
Speaker 1: feel comfortable doing that with or do you do not
Speaker 1: want to get involved with this kind of injury? And
Speaker 1: we know it's a sprained mc L. We know that
Speaker 1: could cost we I believe of An Ingram had a
Speaker 1: similar uh injury that cost him about two weeks maybe
Speaker 1: three depending on this week. But is that where you
Speaker 1: take a shot or you want to go somewhere else
Speaker 1: toward the desperate owners, not the Austin Hooper away. I
Speaker 1: think I would be all right trying to acquire Austin Hooper. Obviously,
Speaker 1: it depends on the price tag. This is something you
Speaker 1: were asking me about downstairs, right, Like if you are
Speaker 1: a playoff team and you you know, you're planning for
Speaker 1: the future, everyone's trying to look at playoff schedules and
Speaker 1: you know players that have good schedules in those you know,
Speaker 1: weeks fourteen to sixteen um time period. I think, yeah, look,
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper this year, Greg he was the tight end
Speaker 1: one when he was healthy, when he was on the field.
Speaker 1: He is currently the tight end one in terms of
Speaker 1: fantasy points per game, like he's being targeted in the
Speaker 1: red zone. And this was a breakout year for Austin Hooper,
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it. So I think if you
Speaker 1: can get him on the cheap, you know, and an
Speaker 1: opposing owner who is desperate right now, they can't afford
Speaker 1: to wait for Austin Hooper. Had one of my buddies
Speaker 1: earlier today texting me asking, you know, look, I don't
Speaker 1: have Austin Hooper. I lost Tyreek Hill. It's you know,
Speaker 1: I need help, you know what should I do? And
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that are in this predicament.
Speaker 1: So they might just be willing to give up Austin
Speaker 1: Hooper for a wide receiver three that they can start
Speaker 1: because they have injuries, or a tight end that they
Speaker 1: can just get in their lineup. So I think that
Speaker 1: if you're looking pretty you're set for the playoffs. Sure, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, as long as the price is right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: why not go out and try and acquire in Austin Hooper? Normally,
Speaker 1: you know, we don't like to have too much injury optimism,
Speaker 1: but I think everything that we've read and seen so
Speaker 1: far is Austin Hooper is going to be back, not
Speaker 1: this week, maybe not even next week, but if we
Speaker 1: can get him for those playoff weeks, Greg weeks fourteen
Speaker 1: to sixteen, which seems like a realistic timetable. Yeah, why not.
Speaker 1: So I was just reading as you were as you're
Speaker 1: going on in a similar fashion about the Steelers, I
Speaker 1: mentioned Jovid jujuced, theth Schuster, the knee injuries not super
Speaker 1: uh super bad for Juju, but with a knee with
Speaker 1: a concussion, he's not gonna play this week and knee concussion,
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph, I mean it all adds up to black.
Speaker 1: So Deante Johnson, we don't know if he's gonna play
Speaker 1: this week. So I know that James Washington is the
Speaker 1: number one one receiver, you know, the number three wide receiver.
Speaker 1: Maybe that is that Johnny Holton. Maybe. But the way
Speaker 1: if I was looking for according to this, I didn't
Speaker 1: even realize he got cut previously from his other team. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Deon Kane, yes I did. I did not know that.
Speaker 1: I was like, we're doing it, We're doing it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, we were a Dion Kane fan last
Speaker 1: year when he came out of Clemson. Clemson just turns
Speaker 1: out these wide receivers that have performed pretty well at
Speaker 1: the NFL level, and he was an interesting mix of
Speaker 1: size and speed. But then he tore his I believe
Speaker 1: he tore his a c L. He had a season
Speaker 1: ending injury last year during training camp with the Colts,
Speaker 1: and he hasn't really been able to return to form
Speaker 1: the Colts obviously. You know, they like Zach Pascal, They've
Speaker 1: liked Chester Rogers for a few years now, and they
Speaker 1: just drafted Paris Campbell this past season in the UH
Speaker 1: in this past draft, in the NFL draft. So I
Speaker 1: think that Deon Kane was somewhat expendable for them. I
Speaker 1: did see that he landed with the Pittsburgh Steelers. But ultimately, look,
Speaker 1: if we're not excited, or at least I'll speak for myself,
Speaker 1: I don't speak for you Greg. If I'm not excited
Speaker 1: about James Washington, I don't know how excited I could
Speaker 1: be about Dion Kane, who probably doesn't know the playbook.
Speaker 1: And yeah, has Mason Rudolph throwing the ball to him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I understand why he would not even be really excited
Speaker 1: about that situation. Let's get into UM tomorrow. Nice matchup.
Speaker 1: I don't wanted to break it down. We'll do it tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Virginia will be back on the show tomorrow as well.
Speaker 1: But the ruy NX. How did those running backs go
Speaker 1: off the waiver wire for you in your home leagues? Yes,
Speaker 1: so when it comes to Jonathan Williams in the pit league,
Speaker 1: as I mentioned earlier, he went for fifteen dollars. That's
Speaker 1: out of a one hundred dollar budget. In my home league,
Speaker 1: he went for twelve dollars. John and Williams was the
Speaker 1: most expensive running back in terms of fab last night
Speaker 1: for me in the leagues that I play in. Next
Speaker 1: up with nineham Hines. I picked him up for four
Speaker 1: dollars in my home league. By remaining four dollars, I hope,
Speaker 1: you know, something comes out of it night heem Hines
Speaker 1: tomorrow night. Um. I think that he's going to have
Speaker 1: a few targets. Obviously, he's gonna have some opportunity to
Speaker 1: probably play like thirty percent of the snaps. He'll get
Speaker 1: maybe a handful of carries and you know, three or
Speaker 1: four targets. The Texans struggle big time against past catching
Speaker 1: running backs. They've allowed the most receptions to running backs
Speaker 1: so far this season. We just saw mark Ingram or
Speaker 1: Ingram of all running backs have two receiving touchdowns last week.
Speaker 1: It's like their linebackers and safeties just forget to cover
Speaker 1: running backs when they come out the flat, um, you know,
Speaker 1: out of the backfield in order to catch passes. And
Speaker 1: then you know, I saw Jordan Wilkins. He was picked
Speaker 1: up in the league's I play in. You know, he
Speaker 1: was not picked up for any money. He was just
Speaker 1: you know, zero dollar bids. I picked him up in
Speaker 1: a league where we still play with the traditional waiver system,
Speaker 1: and I have Marlon Mack on my team, but I'm
Speaker 1: in first place in this league, so I didn't get
Speaker 1: Jonathan Williams. Niheem Hines was already owned, and I ended
Speaker 1: up picking up Jordan Wilkins. So it seems like most
Speaker 1: people are thinking, Greg that Jonathan Williams is going to
Speaker 1: be the guy that Twall Dollar been in. My home
Speaker 1: league actually went to Michael Florio, so he knows a
Speaker 1: thing or two. Yeah, I still I saw him tweeting
Speaker 1: about it as well this morning, like, hey, you never know,
Speaker 1: you're just putting them in what happens? Alright, Floria, I
Speaker 1: got it. But would you label that as a bad
Speaker 1: Florio tweet? Yeah? Okay, so if he was still on
Speaker 1: the show, you would call him out, which I would, Alright,
Speaker 1: I don't just doing it right now? Yeah, so you
Speaker 1: don't just do it to me. You think it'd be
Speaker 1: different if he was sitting in this room that I
Speaker 1: wouldn't say anything. Um, I thought that this bad Gurley take.
Speaker 1: If you liked as well, Um, nice job he desert,
Speaker 1: Let's go. But you know, in all in all seriousness,
Speaker 1: you read the tweet yesterday, The Beat reporter said a
Speaker 1: lot of Jordan Wilkins, Um it's really hard to predict.
Speaker 1: I said yesterday when we were off in the air
Speaker 1: trying to make our own bids, that Jonathan Williams is
Speaker 1: probably the guy I would have for soon that was
Speaker 1: that was our backup bid for instance. Um, I think
Speaker 1: he sees a majority of the workload. I think the
Speaker 1: Colts are gonna do what they need to do. Eric
Speaker 1: Hebron also a question marking this game, as I saw
Speaker 1: just a few moments ago. Did you see on Sunday
Speaker 1: he was like throwing up on the side and see that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was just like coming to the sideline and like throw.
Speaker 1: Yeah he was sick or whatever. I don't know, partying
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis the night before, whatever it might be. So yeah,
Speaker 1: that was a home game against the Jaguars. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll pay attention to him. You know, look, I understand
Speaker 1: Jack Doile let everyone down last week, but if there's
Speaker 1: no Eric Ebron, if there's no t Y Hilton, he's
Speaker 1: like forward has been practice today. Eric Ebron was te
Speaker 1: why Hilton was kind of seems like they're rushing him
Speaker 1: back a little bit. Man, it's a big game. Even
Speaker 1: if he plays like he always crushes the Texans and
Speaker 1: he always crushes it when he plays injured. Yea, I guess. Look,
Speaker 1: if you own him, you're gonna have to put him
Speaker 1: in your line up. But of course you are. It's
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, and so I agree. I know that Virginia.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk to Virginia about this tomorrow as well.
Speaker 1: He's going to be at a big risk for reinjury.
Speaker 1: So I agree. But if they're cautious with him, you
Speaker 1: just limited snaps, limitated snaps in the right situation, taking
Speaker 1: your deep shots with him. You need it. He owns
Speaker 1: the Texans, he owns them. Whenever they play indoors, this
Speaker 1: game will be played in It's a must a crush,
Speaker 1: it's a must winner for Indianapolis, and they're all for
Speaker 1: ten days. If he plays, you have to play, Truss.
Speaker 1: Let's take a break. We'll come back. What do you
Speaker 1: want to do next? We've got the most drop players.
Speaker 1: See if there's anyone that you find interesting on here.
Speaker 1: Got some like cheaper league trade targets as well. And

Speaker 1: what's up? Channel five seventeen. Happen to have you aboard
Speaker 1: here on the Sports Grade Network Rank I mentioned before
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper and a You're you're frustrated and you're desperate
Speaker 1: and we know it. But you mentioned before all those
Speaker 1: teams that are on by I look at Minnesota and
Speaker 1: I look at Dalvin Cook, and I look at Stefon Diggs.
Speaker 1: I look at Adam Feeling that could be healthy. How
Speaker 1: do I get those players? What do I do to
Speaker 1: go out and get those players from a team that
Speaker 1: needs to win this week? They cannot, they lose their out,
Speaker 1: they need to win. What do I do? How far
Speaker 1: do I go? You take advantage, Greig, That's obviously what
Speaker 1: you do when it comes to Dalvin Cook. He's obviously
Speaker 1: the one that I would want more than anybody else
Speaker 1: on this Minnesota Vikings team. I mean that schedule from
Speaker 1: you know, week thirteen on at Seattle, Verse Detroit at
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Chargers and Verse Green Bay. I mean
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. You know, he's getting a lot of people
Speaker 1: to the playoffs, but he's going to win a lot
Speaker 1: of people fantasy championships as well based on that schedule.
Speaker 1: And I think, look, if there's a team that is
Speaker 1: fighting for their playoff lives right now, if they're on
Speaker 1: the cosp if they're you know that that's six seed,
Speaker 1: that four seed. However, many teams in your league make
Speaker 1: the playoffs and they don't have Dalvin Cook this week,
Speaker 1: They're gonna be desperate, man. So I think if you
Speaker 1: can offer some depth, if you can, you know, send
Speaker 1: a classic Twoper one Frank trade over to somebody and
Speaker 1: try and acquire Dalvin Cook right now. I mean, this
Speaker 1: is what you should be doing when it comes to
Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs and Adam Feeling. I think it's a tough,
Speaker 1: tougher situation, Greg, because Stefon Diggs, while he has had
Speaker 1: some very big boom weeks we talked about this on Monday,
Speaker 1: his targets share has still you know, it hasn't been massive.
Speaker 1: It's it's actually quite underwhelming, and he has made the
Speaker 1: most of his targets. But they spread the ball around. B. C.
Speaker 1: Johnson has been involved the tight ends they're they're throwing
Speaker 1: to both IRV Smith and Kylie Rudolph. I not justly
Speaker 1: would not be trying to acquire neither Adam Feeling nor
Speaker 1: Stefan Digs right now. But if you can get Dalvin Cook, obviously,
Speaker 1: it's a no brainer. I think that if a team
Speaker 1: is desperate, you can probably get him for less than
Speaker 1: what his value actually is. Greg Yeah, I I totally
Speaker 1: totally agree with you that if you find the desperate
Speaker 1: owner that is active and trying to make the playoffs,
Speaker 1: you are able to potentially make a really get a
Speaker 1: huge advantage there. And I think the same can be
Speaker 1: said when you look at some other situations, specifically in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles where there's not one but two running backs
Speaker 1: you could try to get, and something like Austin Ekeler like,
Speaker 1: they probably want to train them away knowing that he's
Speaker 1: one A or one B to a one A. In
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon, knowing that you don't have him this week,
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem so hard. And I've tried to trade
Speaker 1: for him and trade him away harder than I thought.
Speaker 1: The idea makes sense, and Ela has been consistent even
Speaker 1: with Melvin Gordon. Right, he's not getting as many carries
Speaker 1: as you want, but he's still a huge part of
Speaker 1: the past game. Philip Rivers cannot throw the ball down
Speaker 1: the field right now. That's why you see Hunter Henry
Speaker 1: getting as many targets as he is. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: twenty two percent target chair since he's returned from injury.
Speaker 1: I would look into trying to acquire Hunter Henry if
Speaker 1: you can as well. But Philip Rivers cannot throw the
Speaker 1: ball down the field, Greg, So he's targeting all these
Speaker 1: short intermediate routes Keenan Allen. The targets have been there,
Speaker 1: the touchdowns haven't been until this past week. But Keenan Allen, Hunter, Henry,
Speaker 1: Austin Ekeler, you know, Austin Nickler and half point PPR leave.
Speaker 1: Gregg has not had lower than nine Fantasy points in
Speaker 1: each of the past five weeks. No, that's not nothing.
Speaker 1: I mean he's a legitimate flex play every single week,
Speaker 1: and that that actually you know that has value. I mean,
Speaker 1: people are you know I'm starting that he heinz in
Speaker 1: a flex this week? People are in a bind. So
Speaker 1: I think that if you can trade away your wide
Speaker 1: receiver three or trade away a lower end flex to
Speaker 1: uh someone to acquire Austin Ekeler, especially in a PPR league,
Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. Right now, Greg totally
Speaker 1: totally get it. And we go to Kansas City. Now,
Speaker 1: I know no one by one here, but with Kansas City,
Speaker 1: Tyree Hills in a similar situation, Austin Hoover. Isn't a
Speaker 1: hamstring strain. We heard it was called mild. Here's a
Speaker 1: chance he's back for Week thirteen misses No time you
Speaker 1: take a shot on Tyreek Hill. This one's a little
Speaker 1: bit more interesting because again this comes down to injury optimism.
Speaker 1: He does have the bye week off to get himself right,
Speaker 1: and he faces Oakland coming out of the buy in
Speaker 1: Week thirteen. So honestly, obviously you want Tyreek Hill to
Speaker 1: be healthy for that matchup. Oakland secondary has just been
Speaker 1: you know, decimated by wide receivers all season long. But
Speaker 1: then after that he gets the Patriots, the Denver Broncos,
Speaker 1: in the Chicago Bears. So this is a bit of
Speaker 1: a mixed bag. I think that at this point we
Speaker 1: know Tyreek Hill is he's matchup proof, but those are
Speaker 1: tougher matchups here, and plus we have the injury optimism
Speaker 1: on top of that. You know, I would have to
Speaker 1: get Tyreek Hill at I think a pretty significant discount
Speaker 1: to try and take on all that risk right now,
Speaker 1: right they know what is that discount though, because you
Speaker 1: like I would do, I know there's the risk of
Speaker 1: the re injury, but you get him back in three
Speaker 1: weeks like that. It's a mild strain. He's a game breaker. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm in a wide receiver too. Would you give up?
Speaker 1: This is gonna sound crazy on where I am in
Speaker 1: the standings. Well, the person you're trying to acquire Tyreek
Speaker 1: Hill from is fighting. Yeah, it's a team that's struck,
Speaker 1: and I'm comfortable feeling like I would you trade away
Speaker 1: John Brown to get tire you killed? And no? Instantly
Speaker 1: your mind's gonna say, yeah, of course it's John Brown,
Speaker 1: but the second but really really conceising the second most
Speaker 1: consistent receiver in all of football. But I would ask
Speaker 1: because their schedule is very tough coming up. It is
Speaker 1: a tough schedule coming up for John Brown. Is that
Speaker 1: something you would do? I would say, yes, I would
Speaker 1: trade away John Brown for Tyreek Hill. Yes, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just and it's tougher. Uh and and then yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: looking at the schedule Week fourteen, fifteen, it's Baltimore Pittsburgh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's tough for John Brown. Man, I think that if
Speaker 1: you have a playoff spot locked up, Um, Tyreek Hill
Speaker 1: has more offside than John Brown. Yes, there is more
Speaker 1: risk involved as well, though, that's that's a toughie. I
Speaker 1: think I would do it too. I would take after
Speaker 1: all that. But yeah, Don Brown has been really consistent.
Speaker 1: How about a d J Chark. You did it, not me.
Speaker 1: I did it for you rank what I do? Did
Speaker 1: you know that I was gonna do it? You always
Speaker 1: do it. I didn't do it. Just now. I would
Speaker 1: trade away d J Chark for Tyreek Hill. It's just
Speaker 1: on Tary Hill. Do you view Tyreek Hill just says
Speaker 1: like matchup proof. You're not worried about that Patriots matchup,
Speaker 1: Denver matchup, whatever it is, Okay, so you don't worry
Speaker 1: about the injury either. I just see that he could
Speaker 1: win you a championship. What I mean, I would keep
Speaker 1: d J Chark personally. Tyry Hills got that can weed
Speaker 1: a championship. So can DJ Chart based on the way
Speaker 1: he's played. Absolutely absolutely all right, Um d J Chark
Speaker 1: for what it's worth. Greig schedule coming up Tennessee this week,
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay in Week thirteen, Week fourteen, the Chargers a
Speaker 1: little bit tough against Casey Hayward. Weeks fifteen and sixteen,
Speaker 1: Oakland and a t L. Do not do not trade
Speaker 1: away d J Chark. Do not listen to Greg do
Speaker 1: not trade away, d J Chark do dude? You don is?
Speaker 1: I knew it was coming Arizona. What do you pay
Speaker 1: for Christian Kirk, Christian Kirk, Kenny Drake? Yeah? I think
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake is an interesting one. Is vote right? Like?
Speaker 1: His workload was massive compared to David Johnson, and I
Speaker 1: don't think that's going to change much. Would you rather
Speaker 1: have Bo Scarborough or Kenyan Drake? I would rather have
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake just plays in a better offense. You don't
Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen with Matthew Stafford. Honestly don't know
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen with this Lion's running back situation. Of course,
Speaker 1: we're all hoping that Bo Scarborough uh sees those you know,
Speaker 1: sees ten to fifteen touches per week, maybe even a
Speaker 1: little bit more than that. But Kenyan Drake is actually
Speaker 1: doing it right now, and he's being targeted, and he
Speaker 1: plays for a good offense in the Arizona Cardinal. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I would rather have Kenyan Drake. When it comes to
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk, look, if you could give up a solid
Speaker 1: to lower and wide receiver three, if you give up
Speaker 1: a Hollywood Brown, Right, That's something that I would do
Speaker 1: if you can give up a I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: know if anyone's taking on a Tyler Boyd, but a
Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd uh Robert Woods. I think something like that
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense for Christian Kirk. I'd rather
Speaker 1: have Christian Kirk than both of those guys that you
Speaker 1: just mentioned, Tyler Boyd and Robert Woods. I think, I
Speaker 1: do you want to remember like Kenyan Drake though, is
Speaker 1: Chase Evans very well could be back after the bye say.
Speaker 1: I think, and this is just my speculation, the Cardinals
Speaker 1: know that Kenyan Drake is going to be a free agent,
Speaker 1: and they're not going to resign him because they have
Speaker 1: David Johnson under contract, and I believe that Chase Edmonds
Speaker 1: is still under his rookie deal as well. So I
Speaker 1: think that they are kind of running Kenyan Drake into
Speaker 1: the ground because they know next year and beyond it's
Speaker 1: likely going to be the David Johnson Show and the
Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds Show. I think that they're going to continue
Speaker 1: to give Kenyan Drake a lot of work here. Greg.
Speaker 1: I wonder if there's a chance of a trade for
Speaker 1: Arizona with both Chase Emans and David Johnson there, we'll
Speaker 1: see trade one of them away and then resigned Kenyan
Speaker 1: Drake something like that. No, I mean, one of those
Speaker 1: guys will be your star and like whatever can he
Speaker 1: goes away. But like, I think that they're not gonna
Speaker 1: be able to trade away that David Johnson contract. Didn't
Speaker 1: they pay him most of the money already? Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess you'd have to look into the stakes of
Speaker 1: the of the contracts, right, like how much guaranteed money
Speaker 1: is still left on a deal because normally, you know,
Speaker 1: two or three years into a deal, you can basically
Speaker 1: cut whoever you want and you know it's there's no
Speaker 1: more guaranteed money involved, So you'd have to look into that.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about Kenyan Drake as a keeper
Speaker 1: trade target? Craig So, I thought this was interesting because
Speaker 1: he's entering free agency based on the way that he
Speaker 1: is playing, and I don't know what else we need
Speaker 1: to see from Kenyan Drake. He is a starting caliber
Speaker 1: running back at the NFL level. It is very obvious
Speaker 1: he is a good pass catcher as well. If he
Speaker 1: lands with a team next year, Greg where he is
Speaker 1: the starting running back. He's going to have pretty damn
Speaker 1: good value. So do you like him as a you know,
Speaker 1: keeper trade target? You know it's funny because I I
Speaker 1: think of this. We said the same thing last year
Speaker 1: about Sevin Coleman. I was gonna say, yes, we did,
Speaker 1: but this isn't a great example. Were also the same
Speaker 1: thing on the other side, as Mike Florio celebrated about
Speaker 1: Damian Williams and having him as a keeper for nothing,
Speaker 1: I was like, dude, a contract extension, right, like all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Kenyan Drake's it was like like a
Speaker 1: two year, six million dollar contract extensions, the same thing
Speaker 1: as Damian Williams. I'll be like, I're not paying him
Speaker 1: anything three million dollars. Who carries? And Damian Williams was
Speaker 1: an awesome keeper theoretically because he came in as the starter,
Speaker 1: unquestioned starter. He then got back to it, got hurt,
Speaker 1: came back as the starter again, and I was wrong.
Speaker 1: I was dead wrong. So I wanted my first instinct
Speaker 1: is to tell you I think Kenyan Duran's a terrible keeper,
Speaker 1: that like he'll go somewhere and not be the starter.
Speaker 1: He'll be the one be wrong. There's no guarantees. It's
Speaker 1: just what do you think is gonna happen? There are
Speaker 1: anything can happen. There are a bunch of teams that
Speaker 1: do need running just mentioned Kansas City. I mean, Greg,
Speaker 1: imagine Kenyan Drake in Kansas City, right, you could? You
Speaker 1: could imagine him in Buffalo, right, Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: I think Atlanta potentially. Davante Freeman looks old, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: and I know that he has a big contract, but
Speaker 1: they might have gut that maybe Freeman sign a Kenyan jury.
Speaker 1: So I think there's a lot of places where they
Speaker 1: need a running back. And I don't know if Keny
Speaker 1: Drake's the guy trademark, but you can never role so
Speaker 1: I don't love him as a keeper keeper Dynasty leagues
Speaker 1: to me, I find it Laffer. Yeah, dynasy is very different.
Speaker 1: We'll tell you about who was dropped than who matters

Speaker 1: also preview Thursday night football between the Colts and the Texans.
Speaker 1: I'm hoping to go out for wings afterwards, Frank to
Speaker 1: to enjoy the game. Am I was that an invitation?
Speaker 1: Come not probably not anything, Sorry, man, I'm excited for
Speaker 1: it as Sandro, Come do it, Greggy, some Texans, some cults,
Speaker 1: visional matchup. If I don't give her wings. I left
Speaker 1: that we're beginning of meatball. So whatever you want to do, man,
Speaker 1: all right, ever you want to do. We mentioned who
Speaker 1: were desperate to trade four and who we want to
Speaker 1: take advantage of. Let me get to the players that
Speaker 1: we're dropped this week and if we have any issues
Speaker 1: with them, and I mentioned a lot David Johnson introduced
Speaker 1: miss Schuster, like, I'm I'm okay with it. Let me
Speaker 1: talk about to some of the other ones. Well, are
Speaker 1: you looking at me for David Johnson? Wanted is just
Speaker 1: so I get it. It's just it's just so, it's
Speaker 1: hard for me to like, I understand. Somebody asked me,
Speaker 1: can I drop David Johnson for both Scarbrough? Like really?
Speaker 1: And you're like, do we have any else? Probably that
Speaker 1: was my exact response. The sting so predictable. You know, sorry, right,
Speaker 1: we worked We worked together a long time now hopefully forever. Um.
Speaker 1: This is a really interesting one. Towar the bottom. Tyler Boyd.
Speaker 1: Tyler boy dropable. There are a few other names on
Speaker 1: this list that I think are more droppable, like the
Speaker 1: two wide receivers just ahead of Tyler Boyd. I think
Speaker 1: I would rather drop, which are Sammy Watkins and Mike Williams.
Speaker 1: I you know, I told you about Sammy Watkins on Monday, yesterday,
Speaker 1: whatever it was. I am done with Sammy Watkins. And
Speaker 1: you will feel so liberated when you release Sammy Watkins
Speaker 1: from your team. All the talent in the world. Maybe
Speaker 1: the injuries have caught up to him, The fact that
Speaker 1: the Chiefs spread the ball around. I am okay dropping
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins. I'd rather drop him than I would Tyler
Speaker 1: Boyd Greg. The reason being there's a lot of injuries
Speaker 1: to the Cincinnati Bengals right now. I understand Ryan Finley
Speaker 1: is a terrible quarterback. I saw a Bengals beat reporter
Speaker 1: described the way that Ryan Finley throws the ball as
Speaker 1: somebody throwing a paper airplane. Probably don't want your quarterback
Speaker 1: being described that way. But Tyler Boyd Greg, I think
Speaker 1: we get the squeaky wheel game this week. He complained
Speaker 1: after the game that I'm not being targeted enough. He
Speaker 1: only had one catch for zero yards last week. I'm
Speaker 1: really sure how that happens. But Audentate is banged up.
Speaker 1: They don't really have any other past catchers on this team,
Speaker 1: like Tyler Eifford. It's Alex Ericson. I think we're getting
Speaker 1: the squeaky wheel game this week. When it comes to
Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd, I'm not saying he's a great play, but
Speaker 1: I think the targets turn around this week. I'd be
Speaker 1: more likely to drop Sammy Watkins, who's on a buy
Speaker 1: Mike Williams, who's on a buy Audentate, Tyler Boyd's teammate
Speaker 1: than I would Tyler Boyd. He took a lot about
Speaker 1: dripping Um Audentate in recent weeks, and I agree. I
Speaker 1: know issues with dropping any of those guys Um that
Speaker 1: you managed. What about your boy Mohammed Sanu, You were
Speaker 1: really high on him last week. A lot of the
Speaker 1: industry folks, sorry industry folks, talked about how many targets
Speaker 1: he to receive and again it was a tough game
Speaker 1: of Patriots overall and a good matchup. Well, nothing's really
Speaker 1: change right like, so you're still seeing the similar amount
Speaker 1: of targets that we were excited about. He was dropping
Speaker 1: the places if he was, are you picking up? I
Speaker 1: would be picking him up. I don't think that you
Speaker 1: should be dropping Mohamed Sanew right now. He did not
Speaker 1: practice today. He's dealing with an ankle issue, so pay
Speaker 1: attention to that obviously, and he had a terrible game. Look,
Speaker 1: two catches for four yards. If we're being honest, the
Speaker 1: entire Patriots offense did not have a good day on Sunday,
Speaker 1: outside of Julian Edemen throwing a touchdown to Philip door
Speaker 1: Set should have been Mohammed Sanknew. That would have you know,
Speaker 1: that would have made the day at least no doubt.
Speaker 1: Look two games ago, fourteen targets, ten receptions. The schedule
Speaker 1: coming up Dallas at Houston, Kansas City, Cincinnati, Buffalo in
Speaker 1: week sixteen. You don't love that, but we have some
Speaker 1: matchups here that we could take advantage of. Greg. And again,
Speaker 1: as I said last week, part of my reasoning for
Speaker 1: liking Mohammed Sannew was they gave up a second round
Speaker 1: pick for this guy. He is going to be involved,
Speaker 1: and I still believe that to be true. I'm not
Speaker 1: just gonna flip flop based on one game. So if
Speaker 1: he was dropping your league, I would be looking to
Speaker 1: pick him up. So I I agree that I want
Speaker 1: to pick him up. There you go, we just did
Speaker 1: our leftover segment for tomorrow. Greg. Yeah, we'll find another
Speaker 1: player as something else for tomorrow. Um, but here's I
Speaker 1: agree with some news out there. I'm picking him up. Also,
Speaker 1: he's involved this Patriot's offense. You do want pieces there. Um.
Speaker 1: And when it when you're looking to fill out your bench,
Speaker 1: you're looking for a guy like Mohammed Sanew. Probably maybe
Speaker 1: not I got that could pop off and not a handcuff,
Speaker 1: but a guy that you could put into flex, like
Speaker 1: feel reasonably comfortable about him approaching ten are points right,
Speaker 1: Like that's the thought behind the Mohammed Sanna. Something else
Speaker 1: you mentioned to me yesterday. It's not somebody that's been dropped,
Speaker 1: but Brandon Cooks is coming back for the Rams. It
Speaker 1: looks like this weekend in the clear Concuster protocol. We
Speaker 1: don't know the deal with Robert Woods quite yet, but
Speaker 1: somebody in my league. He's offering everybody Cooper Cup, like
Speaker 1: he's trying to just sell Cooper Cup. It's been too
Speaker 1: bad games and he needs to improve in other areas.
Speaker 1: And I I threw out an offered to him involving
Speaker 1: like Kevin Coleman or Austin Ekeler, and you said to me,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't really want to get involved with
Speaker 1: his Rams offense right now. And this Rams offense was
Speaker 1: the explosive offense last year. It was a year of McVeigh.
Speaker 1: All you wanted was any piece you could find on
Speaker 1: the Rams offense. And that held true even earlier this season.
Speaker 1: But now as we approach week twelve, yeah, sure names
Speaker 1: are again or off the back of the jersey maybe
Speaker 1: it's even off the front of the jersey in some aspects.
Speaker 1: But you know me not necessarily get involved. Don't try
Speaker 1: my best or hardness to go out and get a
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup or anybody on this Rams offense. Well, there
Speaker 1: are a lot of mouths to feed. Brandon Cooks is
Speaker 1: getting set to return to this offense as well. The
Speaker 1: tight ends have been somewhat involved. Gerald Everett I don't
Speaker 1: think was and this team leaned on the run again
Speaker 1: last week. It was, you know, the Todd Gurley show.
Speaker 1: Over twenty carries, a season high twenty five carries. He
Speaker 1: had a few targets as well. I think that this
Speaker 1: team is starting to get back to, you know, relying
Speaker 1: on Gurley as their go to option and letting that
Speaker 1: really set up the play action. A lot of their
Speaker 1: lack of success this year has been due to their
Speaker 1: offensive line. They've had a lot of injuries, they lost
Speaker 1: some players in free agency. Um. But if they can
Speaker 1: establish that run again, it will set things up for
Speaker 1: the past through the play action. I mean, that's how
Speaker 1: this off and runs. I mean, when when Todd Gerley
Speaker 1: is going, everything else in this Rams offense is going.
Speaker 1: But next week, this week, rather Week twelve, the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 1: You don't really want to get involved with that because
Speaker 1: that Ravens secondary is amazing. The schedule lets up a
Speaker 1: little bit after that. Do you realize it is a
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters revenge game. It is a market and he's
Speaker 1: been unbelievable. He talked about it earlier this week, basically
Speaker 1: off the team. They just traded him away a month ago. Yeah,
Speaker 1: even if Brandon Cooks plays, it's not going to be
Speaker 1: a good matchup for him or Robert Woods. I mean,
Speaker 1: whoever Marcus Peters is matched up with. I think the
Speaker 1: way to attack this RAMS defense is probably over the
Speaker 1: middle with Cooper Cup. Look, if you can get him
Speaker 1: for dirt cheap, sure, I mean it's something that you
Speaker 1: should be able to do. It's just I don't like
Speaker 1: trading away of running back depth this time of year. Greg.
Speaker 1: If if you could trade away a wide receiver three
Speaker 1: on your team, or you know, a wide receiver on
Speaker 1: your bench that you know you're not using to acquire
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup. Sure, like, if you can buy him super low,
Speaker 1: that's gonna be able to do that. I wouldn't think,
Speaker 1: but look, this guy is trying to trade him away
Speaker 1: for anything. I wouldn't say anything. So he proposed. He proposed.
Speaker 1: He told me earlier today he tried to get um
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup and he tried to trade away Cooper Cup
Speaker 1: and a tight end. He has two crafty tight ends.
Speaker 1: I don't know why he thinks he has tight end
Speaker 1: death he doesn't. He has no tight ends. Um. It
Speaker 1: sounds like my kind of guy. He would love him.
Speaker 1: He talked about the wedding Um Cooper Cup and either
Speaker 1: Greg Olsen or Jared Cook for Chris Godwin is what
Speaker 1: he was trying to attempt to do earlier. Wow. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: not that. Chris Godwin has been great recently. But I'll
Speaker 1: still take Chris Godwin. I'll take my chances. I agree
Speaker 1: with that very much. You want to Chris Godwin owner. No,
Speaker 1: I'm not trading. Nothing to do with me, but I
Speaker 1: I didn't hear about it. Man. I'm look. I appreciate
Speaker 1: the effort try and sell Cooper Cup based on his
Speaker 1: name value. He had yard game. I like Cooper Cup
Speaker 1: more than you did. That's how you try and trade
Speaker 1: away Cooper Cup right now like its owner, So try
Speaker 1: and get him. He didn't want to take Austin Nikeler
Speaker 1: or Tevin Coleman. He wouldn't do that, you said, but
Speaker 1: he wants tight with it. Yeah, I try to Golden
Speaker 1: Tate and said, I asked you. Yeah, I mean, look,
Speaker 1: if you could just do it for Tad, obviously, that'd
Speaker 1: be awesome. Do you start one of Tevin Coleman or
Speaker 1: Austin Ekeler only a week? Yeah, So that's why I look,
Speaker 1: it's just it's tough to give up running back death
Speaker 1: because you trade away Ekeler next thing you know, Tevin
Speaker 1: Coleman gets hurt and then you're screwed. So I just
Speaker 1: this time of year, I don't like trading away running
Speaker 1: back deap. Okay, fair enough, and we but I have
Speaker 1: more running back death. Now you realize that, right I've
Speaker 1: gotta do is foo leave. Let's go. Let's go, man.
Speaker 1: Not only not only did I um, okay, We're gonna
Speaker 1: take some some serious heat when this blows up in
Speaker 1: her face, aren't we, Greg, Not only I'll show you
Speaker 1: this carries for twenty yards incoming. Not only they take
Speaker 1: a bow Scarborough this week. Look at the team name,
Speaker 1: look at the logo. It' isn't that right over to you?
Speaker 1: This guy is you gotta bow. Leave, he's got the bow.
Speaker 1: Dallas Avatar. I'm all in, man. Greg is not playing
Speaker 1: around here a little bit. We're just flinging around your
Speaker 1: laptop like it's nothing. It's it's it's laptop. Take taking
Speaker 1: care of that thing. I tried my best. Don't just
Speaker 1: fling it around here, No, of course not. Um anyway,
Speaker 1: Oh listen, doesn't blow up in our phases. We had
Speaker 1: like five minutes left, frank, Um, I know you've been
Speaker 1: wanting to talk about keeper the trade targets because your
Speaker 1: keeper deadline is coming up here. Um, you've been really
Speaker 1: tossing around as DJ chark for a six round pick
Speaker 1: at me and like ark as a six round pick
Speaker 1: excuse me? Six next six round raft pick next here?
Speaker 1: And I'm like, really do the value in that? But
Speaker 1: you're I know there's some other trade targets you're looking
Speaker 1: for in your league, and we wanted to get to
Speaker 1: that before people's keeper trade deadlines went away. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: did want to just express how I play in my
Speaker 1: keeper league. I think you could do the same, Greg
Speaker 1: and just kind of let people know in case, you know,
Speaker 1: they're trying to make their home league into a keeper
Speaker 1: league or trying to figure out what kind of rules,
Speaker 1: uh they should set up. So in our league is
Speaker 1: if you pick up a waiver wire, pick up a
Speaker 1: player off the waiver wire and he wasn't drafted, then
Speaker 1: that player could be kept for a sixth round pick
Speaker 1: the next year. That's why dj Chark has a sixth
Speaker 1: round price tag heading into next season. And any other
Speaker 1: player is wherever they were drafted, their keeper value just
Speaker 1: moves up one one round. So for example, Devin Singletary
Speaker 1: was drafted in the seventh round. Next year he is
Speaker 1: a sixth round pick. And in our league, you can
Speaker 1: only keep a player for up to three years, because
Speaker 1: you know, you don't want to be able to just
Speaker 1: keep a player forever and ever. I mean, that's you
Speaker 1: know you want to do that, just play in a
Speaker 1: dynasty league. But in the keeper league, we have a
Speaker 1: three year max of how long you can keep a player.
Speaker 1: So and we only keep two players in my home league.
Speaker 1: So if you two players that I'm looking at here, Greg,
Speaker 1: You're you're gonna find a constant theme. They're all young
Speaker 1: players that I think can take a step forward next year.
Speaker 1: And Baker Mayfield Man Baker Mayfield has had a really,
Speaker 1: really tough schedule. It's about to get a lot easier.
Speaker 1: I really like Baker this week. I haven't done my
Speaker 1: rankings yet, but I think he's gonna I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: really aggressive with Baker. I'm gonna have him inside of
Speaker 1: my top ten. You just saw what Josh Allen did
Speaker 1: against that Dolphins defense. I like him a lot, and
Speaker 1: I still do think he's a talented player. Now, the
Speaker 1: best quarterbacks in the NFL, they can overcome tough matchups.
Speaker 1: Is Baker Mayfield one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL? No?
Speaker 1: Probably not. Is he a really good quarterback with good
Speaker 1: weapons that can exceed in in neutral or really good matchups. Yes,
Speaker 1: I do think that that's the case. So Baker Mayfield
Speaker 1: that the quarterback position. Some running backs here, Greg and
Speaker 1: I'll throw this back your way. You let me know
Speaker 1: which one of these players you might like most out
Speaker 1: of this group. Darius Guys Adrian Peterson might be off
Speaker 1: Washington next year, which means it'll be all Darius Guys Sackfield,
Speaker 1: or at least that's what we hope. That's what we
Speaker 1: hope coming into the year. Miles Sanders Rice love a
Speaker 1: player that I do have slight interested in Dynasty. I do,
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary and then Kenyan Drake, the aforementioned Kenyan Drake.
Speaker 1: So of those four running backs, which one would interest
Speaker 1: you most in terms of trying to trade for them
Speaker 1: in the keeper League? I think the guy most likely
Speaker 1: is Darius Guys. I'm really excited about him. I think
Speaker 1: that whatever coach comes into Washington next year, his sole
Speaker 1: job is going to make Dwayne Haskins better and implemented
Speaker 1: offense around Darius Guys. Like I think we're going to
Speaker 1: see it over the next six weeks or so. Um
Speaker 1: what kind of feet with the future holds for Darius
Speaker 1: Guys if he can stay healthy, if you could prove himself.
Speaker 1: And I think Darius Guys is one of those guys.
Speaker 1: If he pops off in the fantasy playoffs, I don't
Speaker 1: know Washington schedule offhand, but if he pops off, it's
Speaker 1: going to be like Nick Chub this year, We're all
Speaker 1: of a sudden speaks in the first round. Like that's
Speaker 1: what I think Darius Guys. Wow, Yeah, that's aggressive. I
Speaker 1: do like Darius Guys myself. I do I have interest
Speaker 1: in Devin Singletary because Frank Gore is a pending free
Speaker 1: agent now they might bring him back just as a
Speaker 1: veteran to have around Devin Singletary. Singletary is smaller running back,
Speaker 1: so I don't know that he's ever going to be
Speaker 1: that running back that gets you twenty plus touches consistently.
Speaker 1: But he's flash some of the explosiveness. They've been using
Speaker 1: him more inside the red zone. He can catch passes
Speaker 1: as well. I do have a lot of interest in
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary. You mentioned DJ chart Creig. I like him
Speaker 1: a lot. I don't know where he's gonna go next
Speaker 1: year in draft. I think a lot depends on, you know,
Speaker 1: what he does with Nick Foles here to close out
Speaker 1: the season. Um, I assume Nick Foles will be back
Speaker 1: next year as their starting quarterback. But I think, you know,
Speaker 1: sixth round, he probably goes in that round five, anywhere
Speaker 1: from like four to six. I think that that's gonna
Speaker 1: be his range for next year. But d J HRK,
Speaker 1: Courtland Sun and Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Gregg. Out
Speaker 1: of those four wide receivers, which one interests you the most?
Speaker 1: I think for me, the first thing that comes to
Speaker 1: mind was was Deebo. I think Deebo Samuel has a
Speaker 1: connection with Jimmy g and we've seen it over the
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. He's only getting better as we
Speaker 1: approached the end of his rookie year. Remember he used
Speaker 1: to be the second year wide receiver jump he was.
Speaker 1: Samuel could be a monster. Yeah, and I want to
Speaker 1: love Courtland Sutton. The talent is there, But who's gonna
Speaker 1: be the quarterback? Drew Lock heading into next year? It's
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting. He is Frank staff of My name
Speaker 1: is Drex Sus. Thank you so much for watching and
Speaker 1: listening to the bff WAD. Your talk is up next
Speaker 1: fall by at the window all gonnamorrow. We hope I

Speaker 1: Here's what you missed on the BFFs. I have in
Speaker 1: both things, the thirty and the thirty three. You were like,
Speaker 1: I don't know sixteen like I want to go to
Speaker 1: that would have won them. We had a lot of
Speaker 1: money left though, so why not we say you can't
Speaker 1: take it with you right when it comes to fab
Speaker 1: you gotta spend your money. You gotta get players, especially
Speaker 1: us right like we had Frank Gore third running back
Speaker 1: on this team. We need a running back help. So
Speaker 1: what are you saving your money for? You gotta go
Speaker 1: out and get Bow. You gotta go out and get
Speaker 1: your colts running backs whoever it is. Are your rankings
Speaker 1: done yet? A chance? I need to know where Bow
Speaker 1: ranks here. I need to, but you know, it's it's
Speaker 1: a very busy time for for both you and me.
Speaker 1: So going on, it's it's busy right now. The next
Speaker 1: one days, well to night, we'll tell you where both
Speaker 1: Scarborough ranks in Frank's running back rankings. Obviously, I have
Speaker 1: a lot of questions for me, like where is he
Speaker 1: compared to Jalen Samuel? I don't know. Hopefully Frank's gonna
Speaker 1: help me. That's kind of my main question here. Hopefully
Speaker 1: I can tell you as well tomorrow. So over the
Speaker 1: next hour or so, we're gonna talking about other players
Speaker 1: that were picked up off the waiver wire and how
Speaker 1: much they went for, because it's interesting. Like, I know
Speaker 1: it's week twelve, I know we have a buye and
Speaker 1: I know he said you can't take your fab with
Speaker 1: you or you take that number one waiver claim with you.
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like people were overly aggressive this week.
Speaker 1: Doesn't it feel like kind of save that maybe they're
Speaker 1: saving for the playoffs and NFC you can't, but like
Speaker 1: most hopefully you can, you spend the same fabut did
Speaker 1: people were liver more cautious this week than I thought
Speaker 1: they would be. I think a lot of people have
Speaker 1: been burned by the Lions running backs and this cold
Speaker 1: situation is a tough one to figure out. We don't
Speaker 1: know who the main running back is going to be.
Speaker 1: It's a running back by committee. If Jordan Wilkins plays
Speaker 1: in that game, we're looking at three different running backs
Speaker 1: involved against a not so great matchup against the Houston Texans.
Speaker 1: So I think that there's not really a standout Waiver
Speaker 1: Wire edition this week. I mean, we really like both
Speaker 1: Scarborough nobody else now. But you know, if you've already
Speaker 1: set it running back, which I don't really know how
Speaker 1: you can be like based on the running back landscape,
Speaker 1: but there might be a few teams out there that
Speaker 1: have some have enough running backs that they don't need
Speaker 1: both Scarbro So you know, maybe you save your money
Speaker 1: till week thirteen. You see, Look, all you need is
Speaker 1: one injury, Greg. That's all it takes. Right, If someone
Speaker 1: gets hurt this week, then you know we could have
Speaker 1: another running back ad we could have. You know, if
Speaker 1: a wide receiver steps up, whatever it might be, you
Speaker 1: know there's not a an awesome wide receiver pick up.
Speaker 1: This week. We talked about Hunter Rent for Taylor Gel.
Speaker 1: I think about it. The more James Washington. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: the more I think, I disagree because I think James
Speaker 1: Washington probably is that guy. If both starting wide receivers
Speaker 1: are out for the Steelers, it's all James Washington. That's
Speaker 1: what it comes down to. You don't throw it at all?
Speaker 1: Is very bad. Greg is like Dwayne Haskins level bad.
Speaker 1: Where's that bad? He's very bad? Somewhere. Interceptions last week
Speaker 1: they takes the Bengals, and you don't have James Conner,
Speaker 1: you don't have Juju, you don't have Jana Da Johnson
Speaker 1: Donald week. They have to move down a field somehow,
Speaker 1: and I have to imagine that's Jalen Samuel's. Is why
Speaker 1: I brought that up against Postcarborough because I have them
Speaker 1: both and James Washington like, maybe we underestimated this. James
Speaker 1: Washington think a little bit. I think that the opportunity
Speaker 1: is going to be there, the volume is going to
Speaker 1: be there, But again, I just don't really trust the
Speaker 1: play of Mason Rudolph
