1
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:13,600

Speaker 1: Draft Kings. Here's your host, Marcus Grant. What is up?

3
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the NFL Fantasy Football Show

4
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: presented by Draft Kings. It's me your man named G.

5
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: Marcus Grant. Still masking and socially distancing, win and where necessary.

6
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: And we have made it to week eleven. That means,

7
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: by Mike Camp, we get one three weeks left in

8
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: the fantasy regular season. So this is the time when

9
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: everything starts to become magnified. The trade deadline approaches this

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 1: week in NFL dot Com League, so Adam Rank and

11
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: I will talk about some potential trade strategies and answer

12
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 1: some questions that you guys have about some trades that

13
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: are sort of giving you some problems. Of course, we

14
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: will always have a t n F preview, really good

15
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: one this week between the Cardinals and the Seahawks, and

16
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: we'll have some wire taps those guys who might have

17
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: scored off the waiver wire and whether or not they

18
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 1: belong in your starting lineup this week. So got plenty

19
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 1: to talk about on this show today. But first, before

20
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: we do that, as we always do at this time,

21
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: we talked to our faithful producer, Senior Edward L. Murphy

22
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: Esquire and Murphy actually had to ask about the your

23
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: pal and mine, Ricky Hollywood. I know she's supposed to

24
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: be getting her star turn on on the Weakest Link

25
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: coming up soon? Has she been weeked in details of

26
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: what that appearance looks like? Um? Yeah, so I do

27
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 1: know the result. I'm not at liberally to say, because

28
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: you know there's a secrecy involved there. But the whole

29
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: protect was pretty funny because my girlfriend, her agent or

30
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: someone that she works with, said hey, do you want

31
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: to be on the Weakest Lang? And she was like,

32
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: there's just no way, Like I'm not doing a trivia show. Um.

33
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: So she's like, Eddie, you're pretty smart relatively. She's like,

34
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: want to you go on there? And I was like,

35
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not doing that, Like I would have

36
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: too much anxiety. I don't want to be in front

37
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: of cameras and Jane Lang and stuff. So we're like, oh,

38
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: who would also her a? And we're like okay, Erica.

39
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: Um So then we passed on to Erica. She went

40
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: through the trials and and she got through and she

41
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 1: made it, and then this is a while back. Actually

42
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: it shows you like the weirdness behind TV. Took him

43
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: like months for this to air. So now we're we're

44
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: all excited to see what happens with Ricky Hollywood, if

45
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: she wins or not. It is one thing to sit

46
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: on your couch and you know, answer trivia questions. It

47
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: really is a different thing when you were on that

48
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 1: stage and the lights are dimmed and the spotlight is

49
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: on you and think the clock is actually running. It is.

50
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: It's the difference between being a great practice player and

51
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: a great in game player. But look, I have faith

52
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: that that Ricky Hollywood can succeed and if not Ednie,

53
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: we know that if anything else, she's going to be

54
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: at least be entertaining here exactly, she's very entertaining, and um,

55
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: she she's probably for this kind of show. I did

56
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: hear some like stories about what went on during that,

57
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: and you're right, like some of these questions they asked,

58
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: You're like, oh, that's a that's a no brainer. I

59
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: should get to no problem. The men you have those

60
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: lights and you have like Jane Lynch staring you down

61
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: on uh you give some pretty crazy answers, but yeah,

62
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: fingers crossed for Ricky. I hope, I hope she wins. Absolutely,

63
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: I'd be a whole lot of fun to watch. And

64
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you guys don't follow the A T

65
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: and folks out there, I'm sure they will be tweeting

66
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: about it. There may even be like a Twitter watch

67
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: party for folks to to check it out with them.

68
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: So we're certainly looking looking forward to to check it out.

69
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: Ricky Hollywood on the weakest link. All right, let's start

70
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: into a guy who is not our weakest link, in fact,

71
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: might be the strongest link that we have. I'm saying

72
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: this to butter him up so that things go well

73
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: for the show today. It is, of course, our palate,

74
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: Adam Rank, who joins us every Wednesday. I would imagine

75
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: you would be pretty good on a trivia show as well.

76
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: I'd be great, I think I should. I wish they

77
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: would have given me that college. But but can I

78
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: say one thing about this is until you and Eddie

79
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: started talking about this, I thought it was one of

80
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: Ricky Hollywood's gags, Like I thought she had created a

81
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: video that she was on the weakest link. I did

82
00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: kind of. I paused her video because I noticed that

83
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: her name plate said Erica. So I'm like, oh, well,

84
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: maybe this is real. And then I think one of

85
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: my kids diverted my attention, so I didn't further investigate.

86
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: But legitimately, when I first saw that, she I thought

87
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: it was one of her one of her broadcast things,

88
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: and I thought I thought it was a gay So

89
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: I'm out even like super excited, like I'm very thrilled

90
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: for it, because I didn't want to. I didn't want

91
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: to fall, you know, like you don't want to be

92
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: the mark. You don't want to be the person who's like,

93
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm so stoked for you, and she's

94
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: gonna be like, you're a loser, rank got you. So

95
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: I didn't want to say anything about it. So I'm

96
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: still to be perfectly truthful with you. I'm nine sure

97
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: this is really happening and that this is not some

98
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: still big elaborate ruse. So until i actually see it

99
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 1: on the Peacock Network and I'm watching it with my

100
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: own eyes on the same platform that houses parks and recreation,

101
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna believe it. Honestly, that that's fair. Having

102
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 1: worked with with Ricky and seeing some of the stuff,

103
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: a lot of the great stuff she did for Fantasy

104
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: League one last year, and the stuff that she does

105
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: for the broadcast and just in general. I think all

106
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: of that is fair common. But I'm gonna go on

107
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: the assumption that this is real and it'll be fun.

108
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: We'll check it out and yeah, we'll see what certain.

109
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: Like every time, like every time I take a back swing,

110
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: I'm certain of where this is going, but there's there's

111
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 1: always that ten percent. All right, Well, I'm a hundred

112
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: percent sure that we're gonna head towards some fantasy headlines

113
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 1: and talk about some of the things that will impact

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: your fantasy rosters this week, the first one in Seattle,

115
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about Cardinals and Seahawks in depth a

116
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: little bit later. But Pete Carroll, talking about his running

117
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,919
Speaker 1: back says that Carlos Hide right now is a little

118
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: bit ahead of Chris Carson in terms of them both

119
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: getting back on the field this week. There is a

120
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: chance that Hide could play in Week eleven. We don't

121
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: know about Chris Carson just yet, So that in mind.

122
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 1: What does this mean for the Seahawks running backs and

123
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: your thoughts about starting any of them? It's per that's

124
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: what we want is more running backs on the field

125
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: to make the decision even more difficult to try to

126
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: decipher with this offense. And obviously, once Chris Carson returns,

127
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: I believe that he is going to be the guy

128
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: that we're going to start and we're gonna rely on.

129
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: And all those guys who've played well in Spurts, like

130
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: DJ Dallas and players like that, they just kind of

131
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: get thank you for your time, like I appreciate you.

132
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: You're like Rod Belding, like you were here for a

133
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: short time and now it's time to move on. I'm

134
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: glad that we didn't get duped into purchasing a whitewater

135
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: rafting trip. But we're all good. Am I the only

136
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: one that gets that reference. Nobody Mr Building right, he'd

137
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: he bought he ended buying a trip right, And it's

138
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: like it's like a bad time share situation for him

139
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: is now now his brother Rod was a substitute teacher

140
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: and I wish Zach Posner still worked for us because

141
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: Zach Posner was my he was took us out, so

142
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: he was I'm sorry. I know this is everybody's like

143
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 1: I want to know who to start, like us and

144
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: Chris Carson, You're fine. Posner and I. We used to

145
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: do a show called The Weekender, and one of our

146
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: recurring bits for backup players was calling them rod Building

147
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: because there was an episode Is Saved by the Bell

148
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: where Rod Belding is the substitute teacher. He's the cool guy.

149
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: He convinced the kids to go on a white water

150
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: rafting trip and then bails on them at the last second,

151
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: and of course Mr Belding has to come through and

152
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: uh and take care of that. So actually last week

153
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: on g MFB, I did a a a rafting gag

154
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: and that made made a Rod Belding. There's a Rod Belding.

155
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: Thanks Zach Posner. Oh, by the way, we also got

156
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: in trouble for it. Tom Brady, not the cornerback, but

157
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: our former boss told us to never like you guys

158
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: can't do Rod Belding anymore, which only made us want

159
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: to do it even more. Of course, well that's the

160
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: only response to go back and do it even more. Um,

161
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: look with this, with this backfield, I would say I

162
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: get the Since Carlos Hyde may try to play, I

163
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: still think it's gonna be a two man attack. I

164
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: still think Alex Collins maybe in the mix, because we

165
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: saw him have a good game last week. I think

166
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: d J Dallas is probably back pushed back to the

167
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: shadows now, so I think you can sort of let

168
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: that one go and like, I think a week or

169
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: two from now, we'll be looking at at the back

170
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: to the Carlo or Chris Carson, Carlos high two headed monsters.

171
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: Wherever happens is going to be short term, and then

172
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: I would suspect that probably by the time we get

173
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: to week twelve, things will be back to status quo

174
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: as it is. Hey, by the way, I know we're

175
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: super tangent. We're super tangent e here and at the

176
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 1: start of the show. But I just found out that

177
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,199
Speaker 1: our producer Ryan Bartlett, apparently once when the showcase showdown

178
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: stop it. I don't know, I need to We'll find

179
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: out during the break, like what exactly he won, Like

180
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,959
Speaker 1: I want to know what was in his showcase. Um,

181
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: we'll find out during the break and we will report

182
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: back to you. I want to know how cool I've

183
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 1: I've met Drew Carey and I've worked with him before

184
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: and I've always found it to be super cool. So

185
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: I hope that he was cool to Barlett. By the way,

186
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: I also want to wanna circle put a pin on this,

187
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: but I just realized, like this, I just realized this

188
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: right now that the two Belding boys, because it was

189
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,599
Speaker 1: rich Belding, Richard Belding and Rod Belding their kids. The

190
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: brothers are Rich Rod. I just, oh my god, I

191
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: was this many days old when I finally put that together.

192
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: A good Zach Posner on the line. I can't wait

193
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: to text him about that. Oh man, all right, Uh

194
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: more football stuff. Nick Foles suffered an injury at the

195
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,719
Speaker 1: end of the Monday night game against the Vikings. Now

196
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: reports are he did not sustain a hip fracture, but

197
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 1: it does look like he's going to miss some time.

198
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: The good news for the Bears they have a bye

199
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: this week, so that buys him a little bit more

200
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: time to sort of get ready and get healthy again.

201
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: But look, we saw, you know, it was not great

202
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: at the end of that game. There. We may see

203
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: Mitch Trobinsky once the Bears come back off to by

204
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: I mean, Tyler Bray still has not completed an NFL pass.

205
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: What is the best case scenario for the Bears offense

206
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:09,959
Speaker 1: at quarterback? After this? We call in Trevor Lawrence. You

207
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: bring back jakeb I don't listen. First of all, how

208
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 1: is that not a penalty? Like for some of the

209
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: stuff that I saw on Sunday, the fact that that

210
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: wasn't a fifteen yard penalty, would it have made a difference?

211
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: You never know. Tyler Bray may have Like what a

212
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 1: story it would have been if Tyler Bray would have

213
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: completed his first touchdown pass or first pass just being

214
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,839
Speaker 1: a touchdown strike Allen Robinson? What what am I saying?

215
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: They wouldn't have thrown it to Allen Robinson in the

216
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: end zone? I you know what, though, here's my thing.

217
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: The quarterback position in the offensive line is a huge struggle.

218
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: I don't know that we've seen any sort of indication

219
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: that it's ever gonna get better. The one thing that

220
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: I would hope is that if Mitch Trobinsky is healthy

221
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: and ready to go and he can go out there

222
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 1: and run around, just let him run. Just design an

223
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 1: offense for him to go out there and run, and

224
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: hope he has some sort of like Ryan Tannehill resurrection

225
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 1: where he uses his athleticism. Because, honestly, with the way

226
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: that the offensive line is playing right now, your best

227
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 1: bet and I can't believe. I'm gonna say this probably

228
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: is Mitch if he's willing to run. Now, it was

229
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago where he took a shot

230
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 1: from Harrison Smith and was never the same quarterback, was

231
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 1: never the same kind of galloping quarterback or anything like that.

232
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: If he comes back and he's got to know, like

233
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,079
Speaker 1: his careers on the line now, I mean, he's going

234
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 1: to be a backup somewhere next season. He's going to

235
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: be in the NFL. Like it's not like he's not

236
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: unless he you know, unless he does something that off

237
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 1: the field that gets him out of the league. But

238
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: he's gonna be having But if he really wants to

239
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: ingratiate himself, I say that when he gets back out

240
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: on the field, just Ron, dude, just I know you

241
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: hurt your shoulder again running, but you gotta run, and

242
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: if you want to win games, you just gotta run

243
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: because that offensive line is it's not good. It is

244
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: what you said though. It's when he played his best

245
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 1: football is when he was running before a couple of

246
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: years ago. I mean, those were the weeks that sort

247
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: of led us to believe he could be a startable

248
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: fantasy quarterback. I mean, I don't. I don't think he's

249
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: ever bought into him being a a QB one long term.

250
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: But you know, he had some musable games when he

251
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: was getting out of the pocket and he just stopped.

252
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 1: And now you know he's not built to be just

253
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: that pocket passer, especially with that offensive line. I just

254
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 1: want what's best for Allen Robinson. I mean, that's really

255
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: all I want. I'm just being selfish here, I'm you know,

256
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: and I joked with our pal Matt Harmon on Twitter

257
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: that we should create an Alan Robinson jersey similar to

258
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: that Brown's quarterback jersey with all the list of names,

259
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 1: and we just list all the different quarterbacks that he

260
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: has had to catch passes from in his career, because,

261
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: like all things considered, he's had a really good career

262
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: when you when you compare it to the guys that

263
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: have been throwing him the football. So I just I

264
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: just want something good for him, And you know, in

265
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: the short term, if that's Mitch Robinsky, so be it.

266
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: In a long term, if that's Trevor Lawrence, even better,

267
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,439
Speaker 1: although I would say that rank there's bark to me

268
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: get they won far too many games, you know, I

269
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: just it's a Bears fan. Number one. I just wanna

270
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: I just want to have a situation where I feel

271
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: like my team always has a chance because our quarterback

272
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: is so good, like like the Packers suck. Like there,

273
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 1: that's not a good team. Like let's be let's you

274
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: guys know, let's bring Aaron Nagler on here and we'll

275
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: discuss this. It's not a good team. But Rogers, you

276
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 1: always are under this illusion like, oh, they could go

277
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. They're not, but then they could go.

278
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: Because I want to have that. I want to know

279
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: what that's like, Like I've never experienced that before. Actually

280
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: I have experienced that before in my life when the

281
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 1: Angels were good in the two thousands, Like it was

282
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: always stunning to me when they didn't win in the playoffs,

283
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: were like, how is it? This team is so good?

284
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: But I think with Alan Robinson, because they haven't extended him,

285
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: I I I fear that he's going to be gone.

286
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: And I don't blame him, and I will still be

287
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: a fan and uh, well hopefully we'll still follow each

288
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: other on Twitter and uh as long as he doesn't

289
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: go to the Packard like that's too much, Like don't

290
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: be that guy, um, but go to the Chargers and

291
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: play with Justin Herbert or something like. Actually, you know

292
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: what I'd be I'd buy say, go to the Raiders

293
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: and play for that team. I'm already starting a fantasy

294
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: book where he's gonna play next year. But I agree

295
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: with you, and I forget where Robinson was drafted. But

296
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: it's also one of those things too that if Christian

297
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: Hackenburg wasn't his college quarterback like, he could have been

298
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: a top five pick in the in the draft. So

299
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: at this point, guy, I always go back to that

300
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: Rose Bowl game between USC and Penn State. Actually that

301
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: was Chris Godwin. Take that back. I forget what I

302
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: was gonna say, forget to forget, forget everything that I

303
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: was about to say in that one. But Alan Robinson

304
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: certainly deserves better at the quarterback spot. Alright, last quarterback

305
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: bit of news, uh Andy Dalton has been activated from

306
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: the reserve COVID nineteen list, So he's gonna be bad

307
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: as the starter for the Cowboys this week against the Vikings.

308
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: The matchup is good. I don't know that we trust

309
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: starting Dalton, but but do we have more confidence in

310
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 1: any of those pass catchers? Now? Well, I was already

311
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: pretty confident in both the Mari Cooper and Ceedee Lamb,

312
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: and I think we'll talk about Ceedee Lamb a little

313
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: bit later later on in the show. But I really

314
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: this is a good move. And I know a lot

315
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: of people are gonna be surprised this week when the

316
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: Cowboys beat the Minnesota Vikings, but it's gonna happen, and

317
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: you know, Anie Dalton gives them a little bit of

318
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: like any Dalton has been down this road before, Like

319
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: he it must have been weird to him when you know,

320
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: he walked into the Cowboys at the beginning of this

321
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: season and people expected them to win games. He's like,

322
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: he's never experienced that before. But a team under performing

323
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: in an offensive line, that's terrible. That's that's Andy Dalton's wheelhouse,

324
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: and he's performed well under those conditions previously. So again,

325
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: I'm I agree with you. There's some other there's better

326
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: streamable quarterbacks this week, but I think for your two

327
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: main wide receivers that you want to start, you gotta

328
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: feel pretty good about it, and not also feel pretty

329
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: good about Dalton Schultz as well. I feel like we've

330
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: just pretty much written off Michael Gallup I don't say that,

331
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: you know, I don't say that it's wrong. It just

332
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: you know, I have such a big Michael Gallup fan

333
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: coming into the year, and you know I just had

334
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: the poor little out for him. But uh yeah, Dalton

335
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: being back, I feel better with him than we did

336
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: with Ben d Nucci. Uh with with Garrett Gilbert. Quite

337
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: always want to call double for some reason. I just

338
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: want to call Gilbert grape for for some reason. Um.

339
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: But but Dalton is a better situation there. So you

340
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: can just kind of start all these guys. And for

341
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: everybody who's sort of worried about Ezekiel Elliott, I think

342
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: this makes his life a little bit better too, whatever

343
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: that's worth. So there you go. That that that gives

344
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: you some cowboy confidence, I guess going into week eleven

345
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: all right. Anyway, Today's show is sponsored by Draft Kings,

351
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: It's time for Fat Connections presented by Verizon. We did

352
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 1: get some important information in the break and it is

353
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: that our producer Ryan Bartlett, among the things that he

354
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: won in the showcase showdown where and iPhone, a bow Flex,

355
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:18,199
Speaker 1: a trip around the Tahitian Islands. I think there's one

356
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 1: more thing in there, right, but that was hybrid escape

357
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: hybrid a car, so uh, he wanted a car, but

358
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 1: most of it he ended up not accepting because you know,

359
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 1: they make you pay taxes on that stuff and uh

360
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: it's not cheap. So uh, but he is the second

361
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 1: person that I know personally who has won something off

362
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: the one a car off the prices right. Actually, I

363
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: had a former co worker who used to He won

364
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: a four Taurus on the prices right, and it was

365
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: his daily car to get to and from work. Um. Yeah,

366
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: so there you go. I'm sure that's what everybody tuning

367
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: into the show wanted to know right now, So you

368
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 1: guys are certainly welcome. What is probably more pertinent to

369
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: your interest is the fact that for NFL dot Com,

370
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 1: the trade deadline hits on Friday, so we think that

371
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: this is a good opportunity to sort of talks and trades.

372
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: One last time the first one for folks who were

373
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 1: maybe looking to sell a little bit. Who are some

374
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: guys that maybe they should look at getting rid of.

375
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 1: I'm glad I'm always brought in on the trade conversations.

376
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 1: It's like bringing in the vegan to talk about outback

377
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 1: steakhouse because I'm the biggest trade. I actually did make

378
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,919
Speaker 1: a trade this year, and I was pretty proud of myself.

379
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: I traded away Giovanni Bernard for Travis Fulgum, which probably

380
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 1: isn't I don't know, hopefully Jalen. I saw Jalen Reagor

381
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: on that team too, so I feel like I'm insulated.

382
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: But that was kind of my mindset is looking at

383
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 1: some of these players who that you know, have a

384
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: limited time left, is starting starters, you know, like Giovanni

385
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: Bernard at some point is going to be surpassed by

386
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: their other RB one at some point. Guys like Duke Johnson.

387
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: You know, somebody hit me up over the weekend in

388
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 1: my League of Record because I had Duke Johnson trying

389
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: to work out a deal. I was able to I

390
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 1: try to get rob groundcows Key from him, I thought,

391
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: which was a fair trade because he already had another

392
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 1: tight end. He didn't quite want to do that. So

393
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: anytime you have somebody with a limited time opportunity, it's

394
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: like when you have a gift card that's about to expire,

395
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,479
Speaker 1: Like if you have like airline points or something like that,

396
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: where you're like, oh, this, this might expire. Now. Mike

397
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: Davis apparently is going to have an extended run his

398
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: his top billing, although he's got injury concerns of his own,

399
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: So hold the phone on that. But guys like that,

400
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 1: you know, uh, Eric Young, the Impact World Champion, tried

401
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: to trade me Mike Davis a couple of weeks ago

402
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: when Christian McCaffrey was getting closer to returning. This Christian

403
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: McCaffrey thing. I have one of my best teams with

404
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. We're eighting too work because I include everybody.

405
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: We're eating two without McCaffrey doing much this season. I

406
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 1: know that he's got to buy in week thirteen. I'm

407
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: angling for a buy. Um. Yeah, if I can get

408
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: into the playoffs and then McCaffrey gets healthy fifteen and sixteen,

409
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 1: that's totally cool with me. So you do what you

410
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: gotta do. But I think those are the kind of

411
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 1: players that you should be look in to move right now.

412
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 1: I'm looking at moving some guys that certainly have some

413
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: name brand value, maybe have underperformed, but also have some

414
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: tough schedules. The first one that came to mind to

415
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: me was Clyde Edwards Hlaire. So it's not like you're,

416
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, offering up some guy who's just a curtain

417
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: jerk or anything like that. I mean, this is a

418
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: guy who's gonna get some opportunities, but the schedule down

419
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: the stretch isn't particularly great, and even though he is

420
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: still the lead running back, Levian Bell is still getting

421
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: some opportunities and some touches, so that sort of diminishes

422
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 1: his opportunity a little bit. But I think if you're

423
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,440
Speaker 1: offering him up there, you're not just basically saying, here,

424
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 1: have this, you know, guy who never gets off my bench, uh,

425
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: and give me something good back in return. So I

426
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: think he's one that that I would consider kind of

427
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: putting out there in an offer. The other one is

428
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay, who has sort of dealt with some injuries

429
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks, but we know that

430
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: when he is healthy, uh, he's gonna get plenty of

431
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: love in that passing game from from Matthew Stafford. We

432
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: know that he's gonna be probably the top target in

433
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: the Lion's offense. But again, the schedule down the stretch

434
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,199
Speaker 1: is not particularly good, and I do sort of wonder

435
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 1: about this hip injury long term and what this means

436
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: for his health coming back. So you're you're again sort

437
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: of offering up a guy, uh that that does have

438
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: some value, does have some intrigue, and you don't have

439
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: to tell the other person that you don't like his schedule.

440
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 1: You will have to mention that you're sort of worried

441
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: about the Lions kind of collapsing down the stretch. That

442
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: part is up to them. The research you just put

443
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: out there, that you're offering up a quality player and

444
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: seeing which you can get in advance, all right, and

445
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: in return, I should say, um, speaking of getting a return,

446
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,199
Speaker 1: who are some guys that people should probably try to

447
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: trade four over the next couple of the next few days. Well,

448
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 1: this is gonna be easier said than done. I'm actually

449
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: looking at this right now because my friend Scottie, uh,

450
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: he's been hitting me up today because I have justin

451
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: Herbert as my backup quarterback in the in the League

452
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,359
Speaker 1: of record, I have Aaron Rodgers, and then I knew

453
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 1: where Rogers was gonna have a bye week or he

454
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 1: was having something for whatever reason. I had that. Well,

455
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: because I'm good at this UM, I picked up Justin

456
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: Herbert and I've not let him go and I don't

457
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: want to trade him, and people are like, well, what

458
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: do you want, Like I'm looking at his roster right now, like,

459
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 1: if you want to give me Travis Kelsey for him,

460
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: then we can do that. So that I I think

461
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: that looking at somebody like it's going to be difficult.

462
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: I'm playing a little bit of defense and I'm not

463
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: giving him away because Scott's actually a really good fantasy

464
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: player and if he didn't win last year, he's one

465
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: of the last couple of years. Like I don't want

466
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 1: you to be better. Like there's also that whole thing too,

467
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: like it's cool to target Justin Herbert. I'm not necessarily

468
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: going to give him up even if I never use him.

469
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 1: I know that that's twenty five points that a potential

470
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: opponent of mine is not using. So I don't know.

471
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: I know that we're not running B role, so I'm

472
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,120
Speaker 1: probably not saying what I told our producers, So I'm

473
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: sorry if I if I threw a curveball to the

474
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: production team here. But it really is just one of

475
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,199
Speaker 1: those things like Herbert to me is somebody would look

476
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 1: at and be like, that's why I would want You

477
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,959
Speaker 1: might not necessarily get him, but I think that a

478
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 1: lot of people who have him have another quarterback that

479
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 1: they're they're grappling with, so if you need to upgrade

480
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 1: at that position. Although it's always difficult to trade for

481
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: quarterbacks because you can usually stream them, but I think

482
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: Herbert is the exception though. So I had a couple

483
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 1: of guys on my list, much like the guys i'm

484
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 1: trading away, I'm sort of keeping an eye on schedules

485
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: and uh, it's always harder to sort of acquire really talented,

486
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: productive guys down the stretch, but it is worth kind

487
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 1: of making an offer, and one was gronk Uh And

488
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,479
Speaker 1: I've sort of come around on Rob Gronkowski this year

489
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: because at the start of the year, I just honestly

490
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 1: didn't know what to expect, and I sort of stayed

491
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: away from him in draft because I just I was

492
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: just underwhelmed by what his potential could be. And here's

493
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: the thing, he's not putting up those classic gronk games

494
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: like we saw in New England all those years. But nowadays,

495
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: to be a top tin tight end, you really only

496
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: need like five catches for like, you know, forty yards

497
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: and then maybe a touchdown. And so he's doing that

498
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: and then some uh and has a very favorable schedule

499
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 1: down the stretch. It's gonna be hard to trade for him,

500
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: just because people who have a quality tied end are

501
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 1: going to understandably hoard that productive tied end, so that

502
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 1: it means that you have to up the offer a

503
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: little bit um. But I think it's worth getting him

504
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: if you can try to to slide him into your

505
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: roster for the end of the of the season. Uh.

506
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: The other one for me is Kareem Hunt. And I

507
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: say this as someone having pulled off recently a straight

508
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:31,919
Speaker 1: up Jonathan Taylor for Kareem Hunt trade. Uh yeah, I could.

509
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't hit accept on that offer fast enough. Uh.

510
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: You know, look, maybe there's somebody out there in your

511
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,199
Speaker 1: league who looks around and says, well, hey, car that

512
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 1: now that Nick Chubb is back, Karem Hunt is not

513
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: gonna get so much work, which I guess it's true,

514
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 1: but rank you pointed out and I also found this

515
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: out myself, that Kareem Hunt is actually more productive fantasy

516
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: wise when Nick Chubb is in the lineup. Maybe it's

517
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: because the Browns can play matchups a little bit more

518
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: and get him in some favorable situations. Whatever it is,

519
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 1: he actually is scoring more Fantasy points per game with

520
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb than without him. And so maybe somebody's a

521
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: little bit spooked, or maybe somebody is just sort of

522
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 1: out of the race and you can sort of make

523
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: some deals or whatever. But Kareem Hunt is kind of

524
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 1: a nice option. I think the rest of the way. Again,

525
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to acquire him because people who

526
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: are paying attention to know what he's doing. But it's

527
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 1: always worth the ask. And if you don't ask, answers

528
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: automatically now right. So I feel like you were shading

529
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: me a little bit, like where you're like, hey, you

530
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 1: actually figured this out. Whatever, I won't. I won't take

531
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: that as a slight, but I do think with guys

532
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: like Kareem Hunt, and I think Chase Edmonds could even

533
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: eventually fall into this category too. It's I always say,

534
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: it's like tag team wrestlers that sometimes these guys are

535
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: just better as in a tag team, like Badass Billy

536
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: Gunn was better as part of the New Age Outlaws

537
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: even when they tried to put him over as a

538
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: single are, mostly because the Rock obliterated him. But you know,

539
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: and I don't think that there's anything wrong with that,

540
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 1: And I think it's you know, if it works out better,

541
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: like what do I care? Like, fine, take less snaps

542
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: and score more points. I'm into it. And again like

543
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: somebody did that to me, Like actually this is I know.

544
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 1: I keep going back to my League of Record, but

545
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: people trying to get cream Hunt. When Nick Chub came back,

546
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,479
Speaker 1: the guy who has Nick Chubb's like, hey, I'm sure

547
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 1: you don't want him anymore. I'm like, bro, like I

548
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 1: do that, Like you're not gonna where do you think

549
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: you're getting this information? That you think you're gonna pull

550
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: a fast one on me? But yeah, I think that

551
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: that But I I for exactly the reason that you said,

552
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 1: like most people don't like people are just having fun.

553
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: They're like yeah, and they'll they'll be like, oh yeah,

554
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: Nick Chupp back, I'll trade him away. So I take

555
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: advantage of that where you can absolutely I feel like

556
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 1: we sort of got into what we're looking for when

557
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 1: we make a trade. I mean, that was gonna be

558
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: my next question, but I feel like we sort of

559
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: we sort of talked about that to give people an

560
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: idea of how to make some deals. So I'm I'm

561
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 1: gonna try to do that Duke Johnson for Rob Gronkowski

562
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: thing again. App right now, let me see if I

563
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 1: can pull this off during the break cool In the meantime,

564
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that was Fast Connections presented by Verizon,

565
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 1: so we can fly the graphic up there. I also

566
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 1: decided to put this out to the folks on Twitter

567
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: because we know that people have trade questions, so I

568
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: I asked for a few, uh, and so we'll kind

569
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: of answer a couple of them here. One is from

570
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: Yeah once from Art uh if we can throw that

571
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: one up on the screen, aren't asking did you get

572
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: rid of CMC? And if so, what's an acceptable trade

573
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: RB one? Wide Receiver one? Is that asking for too much?

574
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 1: Obviously throwing in the fact now that we know McCaffrey

575
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: is not going to play in week eleven, but this

576
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 1: is not the first time I've heard somebody ask if

577
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 1: they should try to trade Christian McCaffrey now, and I

578
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: completely understand where they're coming from. And I touched on

579
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: this moment ago where I was talking about a team

580
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: that I have that's eight and two with Christian McCaffrey

581
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 1: not doing any much of anything, and I I feel

582
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: really good about that roster, and I'm looking at him

583
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: as a luxury piece. But if you're a team, team,

584
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 1: let's say, if you're in a good spot and you

585
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: can afford to get rid of a couple of players

586
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 1: you're you're pretty much assured of the playoffs, and want

587
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: to deal for Christian McCaffrey. I like that. If arts

588
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: in a spot where he's scuffling to get into the

589
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: playoffs and you really need to start looking week to week,

590
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 1: then yeah, I can understand going and making the trade.

591
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: And the person you should be looking at is the

592
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: guy who's already guy or girl who's already in first place,

593
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,719
Speaker 1: and see if they would take Christian McCaffrey. And'll be like, hey,

594
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: you've got a great squad right now, why don't I

595
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: take Kareem Hunt off your hands or whatever whatever deal

596
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: you want to make, and I don't think that's a

597
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 1: bad idea at all. And my thing was, you know,

598
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: you're asking what's too much to ask for. My thought

599
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: is nothing, ask for what you want, right, Just ask

600
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: for what it is you want, and if the other

601
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 1: person is willing to negotiate, then you can come to

602
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: an agreement of something that I think both works for

603
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 1: both of you. But you know, go in there with

604
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: a wish list, and you know, if you need five dollars,

605
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: don't ask for three, ask for ten. You know, ask

606
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: for the moon, and then work down to something that

607
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: you find is acceptable. So that's probably the advice there.

608
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: Next question comes from Mike, who asks fair value to

609
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: move Nick Chubb one for one for a wide receiver. Yeah,

610
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: I would believe so. I mean, again, this goes back

611
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: to the point of you've played so long without Nick Chubb,

612
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: You've already picked up running backs who are probably doing

613
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: pretty well for you. I don't believe it's a it's

614
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: a bad option, But at the same time, it's so

615
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: much easier to replace a wide receiver than it is

616
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: to replace a running back. And now you look at

617
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: what Nick Chubb did in his first game, and I

618
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: understand he was doing. He was going against the Houston Texans,

619
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: which I believe, coming into that game had given up

620
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: the most Fantasy points per game, and they've given up

621
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: the most rushing yards. I knew they were very generous

622
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: to running back, so you don't want to you don't

623
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 1: want to expect that maybe every week. I really, though,

624
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: believe that Nick Chubb is a league winning type of

625
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: running back, even going out of bounds here, why are

626
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 1: you showing this? But thank you for running that off.

627
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: I really do believe that. I I would I just

628
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: want to hang onto him. I I just don't like

629
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: moving running backs. You know, we're just talking about Christian McCaffrey,

630
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: but McCaffrey is not playing Chubb's back and he's playing

631
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 1: for you, and I think having that kind of depth

632
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: works out to your benefit. Yeah, I would just say,

633
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: you know, if you're moving Chubb, that means you have

634
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 1: some really good depth at running back because this is

635
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: a guy that, Yeah, I think he has the potential.

636
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: I think he's easily gonna be a top ten running

637
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 1: back the rest of the year, maybe even a top

638
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: five running back. And that's really hard to find. But

639
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: there's certainly no doubt that if you wanted to move

640
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: him for a wide receiver, you could get a very

641
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: quality receiver back in in exchange, but I would much

642
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: rather have Nick Chubb on my roster. Yeah, you've gotta

643
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 1: be looking at a Tyreek Kill type of player, Like

644
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 1: you've got to be like, you've gotta be shooting for

645
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: the stars if you're doing that, I know. And we're

646
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: looking at the Rye. We're looking at the remaining games

647
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: too with the Ray and I don't know the Ravens

648
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: are they're looming, but gosh, these games against the Jags

649
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: and the Item's make it worth it to hang onto him.

650
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: Even in a tough game against the Ravens, you're probably

651
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: gonna roll the dice. I don't know. You'll probably either

652
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: have to wear a ten point game from him or else.

653
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 1: You know, benjam but I would probably even thinking that

654
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 1: far ahead, I think I'm still starting him against the Ravens.

655
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: I'm still putting them in the lineup. That's just that's

656
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 1: just me. Next one from Julian who is asking what

657
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: do I do with Locket and Connor. They've lost value,

658
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: They've lost the last few weeks because of low production. Um,

659
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: I feel like Locke it is maybe a better option

660
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: than James Conner. But that's just me. Yeah. The one

661
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: thing that concerns me about James Conner, and I believe

662
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 1: that you were talking about this on NFL Fantasy Live

663
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Somebody wise it might have been over reaction

664
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: theater about Connor being the RB two on his team.

665
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: Was that you was that? Did I read that? Yeah?

666
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: So I've read that to you, okay, by the way,

667
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: and it's I love that bit by the way, um,

668
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: because I always play it like I'm the one saying it,

669
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: even though it's really you. I don't know, it's it's

670
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: a nuance. I know, I'm going inside the actor's studio here.

671
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: But the one thing that really concerns me about James Conner, Um,

672
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: not that you can do much about it, but they

673
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: go to Chase Claypool so much like he is almost

674
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: their goal line running back. Like we've seen that a

675
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: lot with wide receivers and quarterbacks. Usually it's a quarterback

676
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: where it's like Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson, who's Cam

677
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: Newton who's taking away production from running backs. You don't

678
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 1: have to worry about that with Ben Roethlisberger, but Chase

679
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: Claypool is certainly there enough to make it a concern.

680
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: So unfortunately, I feel like you're going to have to

681
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: start him unless these are your two flex options, And

682
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: if that's the case, I would just go with Tyler Lockett.

683
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: I would tend to lean on Lockings. I feel like

684
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 1: he's gonna be more productive. I think if you're really

685
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: worried about it, though, Julian, maybe i'd suggest trying to

686
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: package them and bring in somebody who can fill your

687
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: flex spot more consistently. I mean, I think there's some

688
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: some guys out there that you know are worthy of

689
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: sort of adding to your roster. Uh, you know, check

690
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: their strength of schedules, seeing who's gonna have a good

691
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 1: playoff schedule. Always important to look who's on the schedule

692
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: weeks fourteen, fifteen, and sixteen. He's trying to make some

693
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: deals there, so you know, sometimes sometimes it's better just

694
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: to get rid of the concerned, get rid of the headache,

695
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: and not have to worry about it all. Right. Last

696
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: one this one from Logan, who says thinking about making

697
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: a trade offer from Michael Thomas when you give up

698
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 1: Cooper cup Or Kimny Golladay's thoughts on that now. I

699
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: I would love to do that. I would love to

700
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: do anything to get Michael Thomas on my roster. This

701
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: probably should have been a player we were talking about

702
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: in players to trade for. Actually, I knew that Logan

703
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: was gonna ask this question. That's why I didn't talk

704
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: about him before. But this is absolutely one of the

705
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 1: players that you can see fantasy managers being upset with him,

706
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: maybe looking at the the injury concerns at quarterback and saying,

707
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: I don't want anything to do with Michael Thomas down

708
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: the stretch. And then you're the one who can come

709
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 1: in and be the beneficiary and getting that production because

710
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: he's still one of the best receivers in the game,

711
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: you know. I mean Jamis Winston last year, let Chris.

712
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 1: Let's let Chris car I'll get it. I'll spit it out.

713
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,959
Speaker 1: Hold on, Chris Scotwin had a very good season last

714
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: year with Jamis Winston as his starting quarterback. So I

715
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: do not worry about that in the least. Teddy Bridgewater

716
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 1: came in last year, Michael Thomas still set the NFL

717
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: record for receptions in a season, so the quarterback situation

718
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't concern me. At all. I see if

719
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: that person is scared, and try to convince them that

720
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay is probably the way to go, like Kenny Golliday,

721
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 1: try to say that they're the basic same person, like, oh,

722
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: they're the same guy, Like let's make this switch. I mean,

723
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 1: I think Holidays I'm amazing, don't get me wrong. But

724
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: he's got his injury concerns too, So I think that's

725
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: a pretty good idea. I do think it's hard to

726
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: believe Michael Thomas is gonna struggle this much for the

727
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: entire season, and and you know you're waiting for that

728
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: big breakout game to happen. And I just said you

729
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 1: should probably trade away Kenny Holidays. So I guess, following

730
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 1: my own logic, then there it is. You should make

731
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 1: that deal. So there it is. It would be there

732
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: if you didn't say it now, it would it would

733
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: It would be a little bit hypocritical of me to

734
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 1: go back on a thing that I said literally like

735
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 1: five minutes before. So I'm gonna stick to my guns

736
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 1: on this one, all right, So hopefully that helps you

737
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 1: with the trade deadline. It's still a couple of days away,

738
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: so get out there and make some deals, do what

739
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: you can to strengthen your roster just in time to

740
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: make they play off run. I thinking look at Thursday

741
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: night football and interesting one in the NFC West, the

742
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: Cardinals fresh off their buzzer beater victory on the I

743
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 1: guess they're calling it the Hail Murray, uh, kind of

744
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: murray to DeAndre Hopkins against Hawks. It's just about for

745
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: first place. Should be fun um, So I guess the

746
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: first question is Chase Edmonds has been kind of playing well.

747
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,319
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake actually had a good game last week. So

748
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: if you're looking at Cardinals running backs this week, you

749
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 1: pick one, you go both, you go neither. Where do

750
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 1: you fall on this one? Both of these guys are

751
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: gonna be ritible options. It is really one of those

752
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 1: things where the Seahawks defense gives up production to the

753
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 1: running backs. Earlier in the season, they were doing a

754
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: very nice job of stopping running backs, but over the

755
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks they've even lost that part of it,

756
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 1: which has got to be disappointing. Like yeah, at least

757
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: you know, it's like like it's like if Duncan's coffee

758
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 1: all of a sudden became bad because the one thing

759
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 1: about that place is like all the doughnuts are but

760
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 1: at least the coffee is good, and so if the

761
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: coffee goes away, then you've got nothing. And that's kind

762
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: of like the Seahawks defense now, where it's like you've

763
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: got nothing because like they give up production all of

764
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: like receivers and running backs. So I like both of them.

765
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: They had a near fifty fifty split last week, and

766
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,359
Speaker 1: to me, again, Edmunds just still looks like the better

767
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: running back, like he just I don't know, he just

768
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 1: seems like the better player. But Kenyan Drake looked inspired.

769
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 1: So unless you have both of them, then I'm like,

770
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, like choose your choose the guy that

771
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 1: you want. But I think that if you have just

772
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: one of these guys, I think you should feel pretty

773
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 1: comfortab Bill starting them this week. We we felt comfortable

774
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,720
Speaker 1: with Chase Edmonds for the last few weeks, and now

775
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 1: after last week, Kenyan Drake I think good enough for

776
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 1: me to sort of buy back in if I don't

777
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,399
Speaker 1: know if I have him in any more any more

778
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: leagues anymore, but uh, you know, last week was enough

779
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,919
Speaker 1: to kind of get me back on board and hope

780
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: that he can kind of get something going, if if

781
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: not as a runner, at least as a pass catcher,

782
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 1: just because we know that they're going to try to

783
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 1: throw them the ball a little bit, and and that

784
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 1: is where the Seahawks are are mostly deficient. It just

785
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: would have been easier if Kenyan Drake continued to play

786
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 1: poorly and we could have just said, all right, let's

787
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 1: just look at the Chase Edmund Show. But of course

788
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: our lives can't be that easy, because it's just it's

789
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,799
Speaker 1: just not fair. I would have been polite, It would

790
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: have been so nice. Obviously, we've been kind of picking

791
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: on the Seahawks secondary all year long, so that means

792
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: we're obviously starting DeAndre Hopkins, you're starting Christian Kirk. But

793
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: how far down that depth chart would you go, Like,

794
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: would you look at Andy Isabella or Larry Fitzgerald or

795
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 1: anybody like that? Are we talking dfs because Andy Isabella

796
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 1: would be somebody that I would take ft I'm sure,

797
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 1: I'm sure the season long, he's probably not so much,

798
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 1: not so much, but yeah, last week, like Josh Reynolds

799
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: ended up being the most targeted receiver for the l

800
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: A Rams, and so they're going to be spreading the

801
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 1: ball around this Cardinals offense, and Andy Isabella has been

802
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,399
Speaker 1: pretty impressive when he gets an opportunity. This was This

803
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: did seem like a game last week where they were

804
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: they were trying everything they could to get DeAndre Hopkins

805
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 1: back into the mix because they'd been kind of overlooked

806
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks. But I do believe like

807
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,399
Speaker 1: looking at this game, and I we do this all

808
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: the time, and we always see a game like this,

809
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: We're like, oh my god, this is gonna be a

810
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 1: forty ninety eight game. This is gonna be like the

811
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,919
Speaker 1: Rams chiefe at the college sum a couple of years ago,

812
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: and then it ends up being like nineteen seventeen. We're like,

813
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,919
Speaker 1: what is going on? Why what are we not seeing?

814
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 1: But I have so much confidence in both these offenses

815
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 1: that you don't have to worry about. Maybe we'll worry

816
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: about things like that, But I do think that that

817
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 1: is Bella is just a It's such a fun play

818
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,399
Speaker 1: if you're if you're doing a draft Kings lineup, that

819
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 1: that's definitely one of the guys, especially if we're doing

820
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 1: a Thursday night slate. I think it's automatic, but like, yeah,

821
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: that's one you got to get in there because I

822
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: think the value is just perfect. Isabella is a favorite

823
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: of Fantasy Twitter, right because he's a guy, he's incredibly speedy.

824
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: Anytime he gets the ball in his hands, there's a

825
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: chance he can go the distance with it. So I

826
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: definitely would would maybe give him a shot, especially if

827
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: you need like a value pick that's kind of slide in,

828
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 1: uh to to one of your lineups at some point.

829
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: I mean, as much as we love Larry Fitzgerald, his

830
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: time has has come. I mean I think we are

831
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:41,720
Speaker 1: seeing the last few games of his long, industrial, illustrious,

832
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame career. Right. He's he's a Hall of Famer,

833
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: isn't he? Yes? Yes, I want to say. I feel

834
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: like sometimes I say that I believe it, and then

835
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 1: you know, people give me sideways glances, you know, but

836
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 1: I you know, I just want to confirm and using

837
00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: Hall of favor, he's he's in the discussion, like when

838
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 1: we start talking about who the second best receiver of

839
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: all time is, with Jerry Rice just figuring to be

840
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 1: number one, like Larry Fitzgerald should be in that conversation.

841
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he's number two. I'm not saying

842
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 1: he's better than Moss or anybody like that. But he's

843
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 1: in that conversation top five. I think he's top five.

844
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 1: I know we've had this. People have come after me

845
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,839
Speaker 1: on Twitter because I I don't know, like I think

846
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 1: that he yeah, because he got so if it if

847
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: it went Rice Moss, you have tarall Owens in there.

848
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,320
Speaker 1: I know I'm forgetting what I've gotten this written down somewhere,

849
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: but people really become unglued when you say he's a

850
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 1: top five guy. I think most people would say top

851
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 1: ten comfortably, but I would go top five and you like,

852
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: who do you move out? Like? I don't know another

853
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: good receiver? Like, just deal with it. I'll never forget that.

854
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: A friend of mine who's a Raiders fans, said he

855
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 1: was fine when they passed up on Larry Fitzgerald because,

856
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: oh my god, was merely a possession receiver, that's all.

857
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: Had had a hell of a career for a possession receiver. Yes. Uh,

858
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 1: let's say the DFS train. If you're picking a quarterback

859
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 1: Tyler versus Russ, which one do you want? Well, I

860
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 1: don't want to blow up the rundown again because I

861
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 1: almost want to change my mind but I think Russell

862
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: is a is a really good play I you know,

863
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: that game against the Rams was unfortunate. We've seen him

864
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: make some some unfortunate throws over the last couple of weeks.

865
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 1: Or you just are baffled he's getting himself into trouble.

866
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,720
Speaker 1: That game against Buffalo, he was throwing interceptions. He missed

867
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,799
Speaker 1: a couple of connections against the Los Angeles Rams, and

868
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: then you just got a bigger you know, maybe maybe

869
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: the defenses were playing well and that Russell Wilson isn't

870
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: gonna throw five touchdown passes every week. Maybe they should

871
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: protect him a little bit more. That would be helpful.

872
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 1: But I really do believe that this is gonna be

873
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 1: an opportunity for him to step up, maybe do a

874
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: little bit more of this. We're seeing right there him

875
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: running the football, being a little bit more creative. You know.

876
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: I think that one of the things I noticed in

877
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:00,839
Speaker 1: that game against the Rams is that he was under

878
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 1: duress so much that he was starting to see guys

879
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: there who weren't there, Like he was giving up on

880
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 1: the pocket maybe a little bit too much. But the

881
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: one thing that you do is you see him do

882
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: this and you're like well, maybe you can give up

883
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,880
Speaker 1: on the pocket and kind of, but he really loves

884
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: that move, like he really loves it. He doesn't want

885
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: to take the extra second. And I know we're about

886
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: the same height, so I don't blame him. Like Adam,

887
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to get wrecked either. So actually I

888
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,240
Speaker 1: think I'm taller than he is, but in any event,

889
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 1: I know you are. But I think that I'm I'm good.

890
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: I'm good with Russell in this game, and I think

891
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: that this is gonna be you know, him being at home.

892
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 1: I think that gives him the advantage too, So I'm

893
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: gonna go with Russ. I feel like there's really no

894
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 1: wrong answer here, but I'm t gonna go Kyler. I'm

895
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,760
Speaker 1: gonna go Kyler on this one just because you mentioned

896
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 1: the thing about Russ and not running quite as much

897
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 1: that that hasn't been a concern for Kyler. I think

898
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: he think. I think at last check, he's on pace

899
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 1: for like nearly eleven dred rushing yards this year, and

900
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 1: he's he's had a rushing touchdown I think in every

901
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 1: game except maybe one, maybe two, but whatever, he's he's

902
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:06,240
Speaker 1: scoring rushing touchdowns, which look under our current four points

903
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 1: for passing touchdown. World, that actually works out better that

904
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,120
Speaker 1: he's scoring rushing touchdowns. I feel like, you know, this

905
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 1: is a situation where I am totally on board with

906
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:16,959
Speaker 1: with Kyler Murray and this one. I think both guys

907
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:18,680
Speaker 1: are gonna have a chance to go out and perform

908
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,759
Speaker 1: very well. But I'm gonna I'm gonna go Kyler here,

909
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,879
Speaker 1: all right. So we've been waiting for the week we're

910
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: both Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf both explode at the

911
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: same time. Is this the week that it finally happens

912
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 1: that they both go boom? Well? I really do believe

913
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 1: that the week where Lockett had fifty points against the Cardinals,

914
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: there was a chance for DK Metcalf to get into

915
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 1: the end zone something I I was. I was gonna

916
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: go back and rewatch it. But unfortunately start them said him.

917
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: You know, kind of takes up a lot of time.

918
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 1: So I wanted to go back because I felt like

919
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: d K had some opportunities in that first game, and

920
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 1: it's it's going to happen at some point. You really

921
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: do need to roll out both of these guys. Now, Obviously,

922
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 1: I don't expect a lot of fantasy managers to have

923
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: both of these guys in their lineups. But certainly you're

924
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 1: getting them out there. If you're the locket manager, of

925
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: course you're hoping, like you know, he's probably not gonna

926
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 1: have fifty points this time around. They'll probably try to

927
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 1: find a way to shut him down. You just hope

928
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 1: he can get into double digits. I think that's very

929
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 1: that's very fair. Like if Tyler Lockett scores twelve points,

930
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 1: I do not want to hear any of you guys complaining,

931
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 1: because that's that's fine. And I really do believe that

932
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: met cops gonna find a way to get get open

933
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be tough to contain him. I know

934
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 1: the Rams did a pretty good job of it last week.

935
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 1: I don't see that happening to consecutive weeks. This is

936
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 1: the thing, you're you're starting both of them. It's just

937
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 1: it just seems like if you're watching the Seahawks and

938
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 1: you see the guy who's not your guy going off

939
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:43,319
Speaker 1: and you just sort of, you know, hang your head

940
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 1: and realize it's just not gonna be the week for

941
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: your guy. But I think this is the week we

942
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,000
Speaker 1: can get a decent number out of both of them.

943
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't expect that they're both going to

944
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 1: give you, you know, thy points. But if you can

945
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: get say twenty five out of one and you know,

946
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: fourteen or fifteen out of the other, and I feel

947
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: like that's pretty good. We haven't had that this week.

948
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: Did that, I'd be okay with that. So I guess

949
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 1: that's a long way of saying, yes, yes, this is

950
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 1: the week. I think they both sort of go off

951
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: and our productive. So we rejoice, Seahawks fans and fantasy managers.

952
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 1: Both your right wide receivers are going to have good weeks, okay.

961

Speaker 1: Adam Ranks got his week eleven Starts and sits, So

962
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,400
Speaker 1: let's just dive into its quarterbacks. Who are people putting

963
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: in their lineups. Well, I'm gonna go with Cam Newton

964
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 1: this week. Who is the the Star Wars what is

965
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 1: it the three the Three sequels or whatever, like episode

966
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 1: seven through nine, Like he's the Force Awakens because like everybody,

967
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 1: no matter what he does, it's never good enough. Everybody

968
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: just wants to go to the internet and complain. And

969
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: they didn't like his game last week. Listen, he gave

970
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 1: up passing touchdown to Jacoby Meyer. Although with the amount

971
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 1: of rushing touchdowns he steals, I think we're fine and

972
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,320
Speaker 1: we're calling it a wash. But he's been pretty good.

973
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 1: Like he he was good. Like it didn't you didn't

974
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:28,320
Speaker 1: get you know, twenty fantasy points, but he was still good.

975
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: And I think this week against the Houston Texans, who

976
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 1: have allowed the most rushing yards per game this season,

977
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a pretty good opportunity for Cam Newton.

978
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:39,880
Speaker 1: Another quarterback that I like is Alex Smith. He's at

979
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: at least three five passing yards in back to back weeks.

980
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 1: He set a career high with three hundred ninety yards.

981
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:50,799
Speaker 1: The only thing that I didn't like although I do

982
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:54,160
Speaker 1: have Antonio Gibson and j D mckissicks, I wasn't he

983
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: didn't throw a touchdown like if you get mixed in

984
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 1: a touchdown, which he probably could this week. The Cincinnati

985
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: Bengals have a lot to top seven fantasy quarterback in

986
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: three of the last four games and have allowed two

987
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: touchdown passes in sixth straight. So if this is the

988
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 1: week that Alex Smith can go three, five and two,

989
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:12,319
Speaker 1: I think you gotta make that move. You have been

990
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 1: to your lineup. He's a good quarterback. He's a good quarterback,

991
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,720
Speaker 1: and he looks healthy and and you have given credit

992
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: for being fearless because I know after that kind of

993
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 1: injury a lot of folks would have just, you know,

994
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: hung it up and call it quits. But that and

995
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 1: he's playing well running back. I just for keeping the

996
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: Washington theme going. Huh Yeah, it's kind of weird of

997
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 1: how much trust we're putting into the Washington FT, but

998
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: we love the matchup. But I'm gonna go with Antonio

999
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 1: Gibson this week. He crushed it once again. He scored

1000
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,800
Speaker 1: twenty two and a half fantasy points against the Lions.

1001
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:44,400
Speaker 1: Was the RB seven. But he's super consistent. He's had

1002
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 1: at least twelve fantasy points in six of his last

1003
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,439
Speaker 1: eight games, four rushing touchdowns and three of his last

1004
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,399
Speaker 1: four combined. He's also starting to see some targets out

1005
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,120
Speaker 1: of the backfield. He's at at least four in four

1006
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,400
Speaker 1: out of his last six and again they're playing the Bengals.

1007
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,840
Speaker 1: They've allowed a lot of rushing yards, not necessarily ushing touchdowns,

1008
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,359
Speaker 1: which is fine, uh, you know, but we started it's

1009
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 1: starting to figure out like we can trust not only

1010
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,440
Speaker 1: Antonio Gibson, but I really do believe that Jadie mckissic

1011
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 1: is a nice option as well. Like listen, Shannahniggans is

1012
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,520
Speaker 1: might it might have been fully been eradicated in Washington

1013
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 1: to get both of those guys into your lineups. I

1014
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 1: love him Hines. This week, it's never gonna be easy

1015
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,320
Speaker 1: to figure out which Colts running back is going to

1016
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,439
Speaker 1: get the call. And even if you look on last

1017
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,839
Speaker 1: week's snaps where Hines had kind of double he had

1018
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:33,760
Speaker 1: of his snaps. But this week he's going up against

1019
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 1: the Packers, who have allowed two receiving touchdowns to running

1020
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:40,320
Speaker 1: backs in two of the last four weeks. UH running

1021
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: backs have twenty receptions against them over the last month.

1022
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,840
Speaker 1: They've also given up the fourth most receiving yards to

1023
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 1: running backs during that stretch. I'm expecting this game to

1024
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 1: be a little bit more high scoring, given even with

1025
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,880
Speaker 1: the Colts defense, but figure that Hines is gonna be

1026
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: targeted a lot in this game. I just like that

1027
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: of the three running backs, Hines seems to have them

1028
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 1: consistent role. You know. I I still haven't figured out

1029
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 1: how they're using Wilkins versus Taylor, but hinds his his

1030
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: production and his opportunity seems to stay steady week to week.

1031
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 1: So I appreciate that wide receiver. Who are you looking at?

1032
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 1: I think Marcuse Hollywood Brown is the is the personification

1033
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 1: of the do something name, like come on, like we

1034
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:24,080
Speaker 1: just keep we keep waiting, like do something. But I

1035
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,680
Speaker 1: think this is putting an opportunity for him. He's had

1036
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 1: some games this season where he's been pretty good, and

1037
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 1: I think that this week against the Titans have allowed

1038
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 1: the second most fantasy points to wide receivers this season.

1039
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,279
Speaker 1: This is it. They've allowed the second most receptions per

1040
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,319
Speaker 1: game to wide receivers and ay they've allowed a top

1041
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 1: twenty fantais receiver and seven other last eight games. And

1042
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 1: I know that Willie Sneed was out there. I know

1043
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,400
Speaker 1: he was a desperation play for you last week. But

1044
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,400
Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be Hollywood Brown's week. So

1045
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get him into my lineup. And I'm also

1046
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 1: gonna be starting Ceedee Lamb. We talked about earlier in

1047
00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 1: the show that Andy Dalton is expected or turned to

1048
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 1: be the starting quarterback for the Cowboys this season. He

1049
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 1: was the most targeted receiver when Andy Dalton was the quarterback.

1050
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: And now you're looking at this Vikings team who have

1051
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: allowed the fifth most fantasy points per games to wide receiver.

1052
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:17,680
Speaker 1: They've allowed close to two touchdown receptions per game to

1053
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 1: wide receivers. It should have been more. You know, I

1054
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,360
Speaker 1: blamed that on Nick Foles in the offense, and I

1055
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,640
Speaker 1: don't believe that. I don't believe that Andy Dalton's is

1056
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:30,279
Speaker 1: gonna miss the throws that Nick Foles was missing last week.

1057
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 1: So I think I'm really confident in Ceedee Lamb this week.

1058
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 1: So I listen, we like them, so start them. It's

1059
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 1: nice to have Ceedee Lamb back in our lives. And

1060
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:43,319
Speaker 1: I'm I'm on my last I'm on my last, my

1061
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 1: last nerves with with Marquis Brown, like it has to

1062
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 1: happen this week otherwise I'm I'm just I'm backing away.

1063
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:52,360
Speaker 1: I'm done, We're gone, it will happen. I'm just frustrated.

1064
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,920
Speaker 1: All right, tight ends, who we're tightens? We're starting? Well,

1065
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Hayden Hurst, although this one's a

1066
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 1: little bit trick because even though he's been very consistent

1067
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,720
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks, there is the looming

1068
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 1: specter of Calvin Ridley coming back and that might be

1069
00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 1: something that impacts him. Will certainly keep an eye on that,

1070
00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 1: will update you on the all new NFL Fantasy app

1071
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 1: look for the players stories. I'll be talking about him

1072
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 1: over the weekend when we have a better idea. But

1073
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 1: you know what, Hurst has scored double digit points in

1074
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 1: four consecutive games. He led the falcons and targets against

1075
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:30,280
Speaker 1: the Broncos two weeks ago, and I really do believe

1076
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:34,360
Speaker 1: that he's got a decent enough share of this offense

1077
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 1: that you can start him even if Calvin Ridley returns.

1078
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 1: And you know what, the Saints have allowed six touchdown

1079
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:43,799
Speaker 1: receptions to tight ends this season, so I feel like

1080
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:47,799
Speaker 1: if it's not a heavy reception volume game, that he

1081
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:49,719
Speaker 1: can go out there and and get into the end

1082
00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 1: zone this week as somebody scoring a touchdown, not just

1083
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 1: you know, walking through it on his way to the

1084
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 1: end zone. And then Eric Ebron is also another tight

1085
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 1: end that I'm looking at. This is it's so tough.

1086
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,880
Speaker 1: I mean, we got Travis Kelsey and then that's it,

1087
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,040
Speaker 1: like that we have nobody else that we can trust.

1088
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,799
Speaker 1: When I'm in a situation like this, I look for

1089
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,759
Speaker 1: somebody in an offense that you expect to throw the

1090
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,400
Speaker 1: ball a little bit. It's tough because the trio of

1091
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: Steelers receivers have been so good, but the volume I

1092
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,880
Speaker 1: expect to be key in this one. So Eric Ebron

1093
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: is a flex option for me. I'm not starting him over.

1094
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:26,839
Speaker 1: I'm not. Don't don't tweet me and be like, bro

1095
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: I shout Kilsey this week because you said Ebron, Like,

1096
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:34,839
Speaker 1: that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying streamable guy. Yeah,

1097
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 1: I've been on the stream Eric Ebron train because I

1098
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 1: feel like at this point for streaming a tight and

1099
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:40,680
Speaker 1: you just wanted to catch a touchdown and then you

1100
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 1: feel okay. So I'm sort of banking on that that opportunity. Uh.

1101
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,760
Speaker 1: Speaking of streaming defenses that folks might want to stream

1102
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 1: this week, I'm gonna go with the l A Chargers. Now.

1103
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:55,240
Speaker 1: I understand that Joe Flacco is coming off the best

1104
00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: game of his season, and I know that's weird to say.

1105
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: You didn't expect to say that. In one It's like, hey,

1106
00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 1: Nicholas Cage is a shoeing for the Oscars. You might think, like, hey, Rank,

1107
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 1: that's not fair because Nick has won an Oscar, but

1108
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,320
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco has won a Super Bowl MVP Awards. So

1109
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:15,000
Speaker 1: are they basically the same person? With apologies of Patrick

1110
00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:18,239
Speaker 1: Claiban for stealing his gag, but he's not here. So

1111
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,440
Speaker 1: I like them this week. I also like the Minnesota Vikings.

1112
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: I hate to admit this as a Bears fan, but

1113
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 1: I was recommending the Vikings to people last week heading

1114
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:28,600
Speaker 1: into the Monday night game. And it's not something that

1115
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 1: I would have done because you know, listen, I'm a

1116
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 1: I'm a I'm a fan, but my head told me

1117
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,880
Speaker 1: it was the right thing to do. And if you

1118
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: did do that last week, you might as well hold

1119
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 1: onto them against the Cowboys. I mean, obviously they're the

1120
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 1: Cowboys are better with Andy Dalton and they're not going

1121
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,279
Speaker 1: to be the pushover that they've been with Double G

1122
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: or the News. But I still think that they are

1123
00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 1: pretty good option this week, even though Ceedee Lamb is

1124
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:54,279
Speaker 1: gonna score two touchdowns against him. I do have some

1125
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: breaking news here. Oh no, Justin Herbert has cut his hair.

1126
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:05,480
Speaker 1: He's got he's got some sort of weird buzz cut. Now. Uh,

1127
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:08,319
Speaker 1: it looks like it looks like, you know, someone's mom

1128
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 1: put a bowl on his head and sort of cut around.

1129
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:12,960
Speaker 1: It's just it's not a good look. It's it's short.

1130
00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 1: I feel like now you might have to go back.

1131
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 1: I don't know where you had him and start him

1132
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:18,839
Speaker 1: sit him this week, but I feel like I'm trying

1133
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,120
Speaker 1: to go would take a look you might want to

1134
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 1: revise now. Basically, like Samson, the strength is in his hair.

1135
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:27,800
Speaker 1: It is It is not good, and I feel like,

1136
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 1: if I'm Anthony Lynne, I'm very concerned about what what

1137
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 1: my team's fortunes are going to be this week with

1138
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:35,839
Speaker 1: with Justin Herbert having cut his hair. Who knows. By

1139
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 1: the way, is it weird that I know? I'm sorry

1140
00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:41,239
Speaker 1: You've got a sponsor him I'll do that, then we

1141
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 1: can come back. That was Secure Starts presented by Visa.

1142
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:49,359
Speaker 1: All right, go ahead. I'm so sorry. But that whole

1143
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 1: thing about Samson, I don't know. It's not a Bible

1144
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:54,320
Speaker 1: thing or whatever. I only I know it. I know

1145
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:56,080
Speaker 1: it from Boys in the Hood. I don't know it

1146
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 1: from I don't know it's original source. But I just

1147
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,759
Speaker 1: know that that the one of the one of the

1148
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 1: villains and Boys in the Hood says that. And that's

1149
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 1: how I know that quote. Is that weird Sampson in

1150
00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: the Fox Hills mall things that Boys in the Hood

1151
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:16,840
Speaker 1: has talked to you about. Yeah, all right, let's do

1152
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:20,120
Speaker 1: some sits real quick. As we we talked start since here,

1153
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:22,920
Speaker 1: who are quarterbacks that you are avoiding this week? Well,

1154
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Tom Brady And we took a chance

1155
00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 1: on Tom last week, which I know is weird to

1156
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,920
Speaker 1: say because he's the goat, and but he's a streamable quarterback,

1157
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,000
Speaker 1: like he's a he's a week the week guy. You

1158
00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,360
Speaker 1: don't put him, you don't put him into the lineup

1159
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,399
Speaker 1: every week. Like it's like, you know, like we see

1160
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,920
Speaker 1: this in Hollywood all the time. Like I understand you

1161
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:43,640
Speaker 1: were a star years ago, but you're no longer on

1162
00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:46,560
Speaker 1: the A list, you know what I'm saying, Like Ben Savage,

1163
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: like you might have been great in Boy Meets World,

1164
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 1: but you're no longer on the A list. I mean

1165
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,840
Speaker 1: Danielle fishel Is, you know, she's awesome. He used to

1166
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,520
Speaker 1: see her. It's like p w G shows like she's

1167
00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 1: a huge wrestling fan. I think her husband's a huge

1168
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 1: wrestling fan. In any event, I'm not starting Brady this

1169
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,480
Speaker 1: week because that Rams defense is ridiculous. They've allowed the

1170
00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 1: second fewest fantasy points the quarterbacks this season. They're fresh

1171
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:13,239
Speaker 1: off a game where they haranged Russell Wilson almost cost

1172
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,400
Speaker 1: me the doubt in my second saying you know what,

1173
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:18,800
Speaker 1: actually they did it. I ended up beating Steve, so

1174
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,360
Speaker 1: good for me anyways. In the also, the other quarterback

1175
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 1: in that game, Jared Goff, He's gonna be the one

1176
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:28,600
Speaker 1: guy who doesn't take advantage of the Seahawks. I mean,

1177
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,080
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Like, how are you? How are

1178
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,719
Speaker 1: you not at least getting one touchdown? Like you've got

1179
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,359
Speaker 1: to be I don't know. It's like, um, like there

1180
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,239
Speaker 1: used to be this uh miss pac Man game in

1181
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 1: the Arcade by our house and it always had free credits,

1182
00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,840
Speaker 1: and then I was the guy who was playing it

1183
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:48,640
Speaker 1: when the owner discovered that the game had free credits,

1184
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:50,440
Speaker 1: and I got in trouble for it. So I know

1185
00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 1: what Josh Jared Goff is going through. Like it's off,

1186
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:55,800
Speaker 1: Like I'm the one who doesn't get free credits on

1187
00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 1: on Miss pac Man. Uh. And by the way, I

1188
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,600
Speaker 1: have a problem because is in our NFL Fantasy Live league.

1189
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,400
Speaker 1: I have two quarterbacks that I've been rotating. It's Golf

1190
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 1: and Brady. I should have thought i'd head to this

1191
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:10,120
Speaker 1: and now I'm going to have to start Ben Roethlisberger

1192
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:14,240
Speaker 1: if he's available. You know, I think I might. He's available,

1193
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 1: It might be gone. We might we might be able

1194
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 1: to work out a deal because I have Joe Burrow

1195
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 1: on my bench, so maybe we can can negotiate something here. Uh.

1196
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,960
Speaker 1: To help to help you out running backs? Though, which

1197
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 1: ones are you sitting this week? Todd Gurley, I believe

1198
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 1: is the first one. I have my new monitor hooked up,

1199
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,640
Speaker 1: so my notes have now run out. But I liked

1200
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: I I don't like Todd Gurley this week. I don't

1201
00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 1: believe that That's what I'm saying that that's Todd Gurley.

1202
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 1: The Saints have allowed the second fewest fantasy points to

1203
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 1: running backs over the past month. The team who has

1204
00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:48,760
Speaker 1: allowed the fewest it's the Atlanta Falcons. So we're not

1205
00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:52,920
Speaker 1: starting Alvin Camaro either. Now I'm kidding, joking, joking, but

1206
00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:56,360
Speaker 1: I don't really feel great about Todd Gurley. He's been

1207
00:57:56,440 --> 00:58:00,240
Speaker 1: touchdown dependent and and the Saints haven't allowed out a

1208
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:02,120
Speaker 1: running back to get into the end zone over the

1209
00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: last month. They've allowed just three rushing touchdowns on the season.

1210
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 1: So Todd Gurley, I love him. I think he's been

1211
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 1: playing great, but this is a week that I would

1212
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:14,480
Speaker 1: try to avoid him and Ronald Jones. I can't start

1213
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 1: him this week. Again, this is a tough matchup against

1214
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 1: the Rams. They've allowed the fourth viewest points to running

1215
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 1: backs this season. If you have other other options on

1216
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,360
Speaker 1: your roster, I think you're gonna have to look at him.

1217
00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:26,720
Speaker 1: I this is gonna be a low scoring game. I

1218
00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:28,840
Speaker 1: think this is gonna be ugly, kind of like the

1219
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:30,960
Speaker 1: Super Bowl that Tom Brady played against the Rams a

1220
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:32,680
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. I do believe the Rams will

1221
00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:35,560
Speaker 1: be Victorias. By the way, I still get confused I

1222
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:37,720
Speaker 1: don't know why I still think of the number twenty

1223
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:41,360
Speaker 1: seven being associated with Leonard Fournette, and I feel like

1224
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,920
Speaker 1: Rojoe should be wearing five like he did in college.

1225
00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 1: But that's just no one has gotten Some people think

1226
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: it's it's Leonard Fournette. I've heard a lot of people

1227
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:55,440
Speaker 1: make look blunt references this change. This number change has

1228
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:57,600
Speaker 1: not worked out for Rojo at all. He might have

1229
00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:00,800
Speaker 1: to renew that in the offseason. Why receivers, you got

1230
00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:03,440
Speaker 1: another book on the list for this one. Yeah, I

1231
00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 1: took it really easy on myself this week and I

1232
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 1: went with Antonio Brown and this week I'm anticipating him

1233
00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:12,400
Speaker 1: being blanketed by Jalen Ramsey. This was one of the

1234
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 1: best wide receiver cornerback rivalries a couple of years ago

1235
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 1: when they were playing for the Steelers in Jacksonville Jaguars, respectively.

1236
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:24,160
Speaker 1: And I really do believe that Ramsey needs to start

1237
00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 1: to get into the conversation about being the defensive player

1238
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:29,960
Speaker 1: of the year of his biggest competition might even be

1239
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 1: on his own team. But do you look at the

1240
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:34,560
Speaker 1: receivers that he's been shutting down this season, most recently

1241
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 1: dk metcalf On Sunday. I I really don't want to.

1242
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 1: I don't want any part of this. I think that

1243
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:44,600
Speaker 1: this is an opportunity to leave Antonio Brown on the bench,

1244
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,760
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna take it the easy way out again.

1245
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna say that A J. Green is a

1246
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:51,600
Speaker 1: sit for me because like I'm a coward. It's so

1247
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 1: hard to put together sit him wide receivers. But I

1248
00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:57,720
Speaker 1: really do believe with A J. Green, even with the

1249
00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:00,920
Speaker 1: Bengals throwing at a prolific pace, he he's been He's

1250
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 1: been usurped by Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins especially, and

1251
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 1: Green he's not a mentor, Like he's not the mentor

1252
01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 1: of this team, but he's also like the elder statesman,

1253
01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:16,720
Speaker 1: like when Rick Flair was running the things for Evolution.

1254
01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:18,560
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like you knew it was

1255
01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:20,880
Speaker 1: gonna be Batista and Radio Orton who are going to

1256
01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:23,760
Speaker 1: be doing all the good stuff. But I can't really

1257
01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:26,240
Speaker 1: trust A J. Green anymore. Maybe this is a game

1258
01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 1: where they blanket those two guys and Adre Green steps

1259
01:00:28,840 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 1: up because of the matchup, but I can't trust that.

1260
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,120
Speaker 1: And I think that he's almost drop herble at this

1261
01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 1: point because he's he's just moved that far down the

1262
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:41,800
Speaker 1: pecking order of Bengals receivers. Yeah, Joe Burrow has been

1263
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 1: able to support a pair of top twenty five wide receivers,

1264
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 1: but A J. Green is definitely not one of them.

1265
01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:50,680
Speaker 1: Uh tight ends to avoid who you got? John H.

1266
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:53,640
Speaker 1: Smith continues to concern me. Um, he did get a

1267
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:56,920
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown last week, but if it wasn't for that touchdown,

1268
01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 1: that would have been a horrific game from him. And

1269
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 1: I got so he can say that about every player, Like, hey,

1270
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:05,240
Speaker 1: if uh, you know, if Dalvin Cook didn't score four touchdowns,

1271
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,200
Speaker 1: that would have been a terrible game. Like, I understand

1272
01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:10,040
Speaker 1: what you're saying, but they really bailed him out points

1273
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:14,200
Speaker 1: wise with that, with that scamper, they're just not targeting

1274
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,520
Speaker 1: him enough. And I think it goes back to Ryan Tannehill.

1275
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 1: He's just not throwing the ball like he once was

1276
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 1: and it's kind of hurting a lot of guys. Corey

1277
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:23,600
Speaker 1: Davis is somebody that I probably wouldn't be starting this week.

1278
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:25,840
Speaker 1: Jon Us Smith is another one. This is why I'm

1279
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 1: desperate to try to get rid of them in my

1280
01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:29,960
Speaker 1: league of record. Try to find somebody who could come

1281
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,280
Speaker 1: in and take that production. So John Who, if you

1282
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 1: if there's other guys, I would rather have Eric Ebron

1283
01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:36,880
Speaker 1: off the waiver wire than John Who at the moment,

1284
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 1: and another player is is Robert Tonyon. And you know

1285
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 1: it's it's unfortunate because high, high volume passing offense hasn't

1286
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:48,160
Speaker 1: really meant a lot for him outside of a couple

1287
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 1: of weeks when Davante Adams was out. But as long

1288
01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:53,440
Speaker 1: as Davante Adams is playing football, and as long as

1289
01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:55,919
Speaker 1: MVS is there, now starting to get into the mix

1290
01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:59,040
Speaker 1: as well, Aaron Jones, I figure starting to get more

1291
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:03,560
Speaker 1: or more starting to get healthier, I guess I should say,

1292
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:05,880
Speaker 1: and starting to also like Aaron Rodgers loves throwing to

1293
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 1: Aaron rod or Aaron Jones when he gets to the

1294
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,520
Speaker 1: end zone. So Tanyan is gonna have to be somebody

1295
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,720
Speaker 1: that I'm leaving on the bench. That one. Robert Tanyan

1296
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:19,280
Speaker 1: week was fun today. We didn't know that any defenses

1297
01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 1: that folks should avoid this week. You know what, when

1298
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 1: we started this week off, I thought the Broncos would

1299
01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:26,480
Speaker 1: be a team to sit, But I actually like them

1300
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,600
Speaker 1: now because the Dolphins will be going from the warm

1301
01:02:30,160 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 1: of Miami to the cold of Colorado. So the only

1302
01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 1: defense I would I would say you that you sit

1303
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:38,160
Speaker 1: this week is the New England Patriots. And I only

1304
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 1: say that because people might still be holding onto them,

1305
01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 1: because anytime somebody has that connection with the with the

1306
01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:46,800
Speaker 1: team that helped them out the previous season, it's hard

1307
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:48,600
Speaker 1: to let that go. And the Patriots have been so

1308
01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:51,120
Speaker 1: good defensively over the last couple of years that you

1309
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:53,520
Speaker 1: want to continue to start them. But even this week,

1310
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:56,120
Speaker 1: I just don't think that there's enough of an opportunity. Now,

1311
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 1: obviously the Texans offensive line has been an issue, but

1312
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,600
Speaker 1: this but the page Rich have reached double digit sacks

1313
01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:04,600
Speaker 1: just twice this season, so I really don't think they're

1314
01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:07,680
Speaker 1: getting to the quarterback enough. They need to force more turnovers,

1315
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,120
Speaker 1: which they're not doing. So I'm gonna have to leave

1316
01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 1: them on the bench that muscle memory. Everybody's like, hey,

1317
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:15,600
Speaker 1: the Patriots defense, they're good, but they're they're not so

1318
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: good this year. It's it is a completely different defense

1319
01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 1: than what we saw last year. All right, So there

1320

Speaker 1: bit of love to te Higgins because you know there

1335
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 1: were I'm gonna get love to Tee Higgins. I'm gonna

1336
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,240
Speaker 1: give some love to Chase Claypool. There was a list

1337
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:08,240
Speaker 1: put out by a rival who was who was talking

1338
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:10,680
Speaker 1: about the top rookies this year, and they have Jefferson

1339
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 1: ahead of Tee Haggans, and like Tee Higgins has been

1340
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 1: more consistent. So I want to dive into that a

1341
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,840
Speaker 1: little bit more. I'm still trying to to to get

1342
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 1: a rant out there again, we might I I can't

1343
01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:22,720
Speaker 1: say that it's gonna happen on but I do know

1344
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:25,160
Speaker 1: for sure we'll be talking about Tee Higgins and Justin

1345
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:29,040
Speaker 1: Herbert's haircut. Oh yeah, the haircut is gonna be big.

1346
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:31,360
Speaker 1: This is this is gonna be the haircut herd round

1347
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 1: at the NFL. All right, let's listen wire tap for

1348
01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 1: quick to close out the show. The first one Jamis Winston,

1349
01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,520
Speaker 1: whose name has come up a lot. Uh. The latest

1350
01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,360
Speaker 1: update on Drew Brees is that he could be out

1351
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,480
Speaker 1: at least two weeks as he deals with rand and

1352
01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:46,640
Speaker 1: shoulder injuries. The Falcons are on the schedule. If you've

1353
01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 1: picked up Jamis Winston, would you stream him against Atlanta? Absolutely?

1354
01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:54,440
Speaker 1: I don't believe that the Falcons are the layup that

1355
01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:57,680
Speaker 1: they've been over the course of the season, you know,

1356
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:00,000
Speaker 1: earlier in the year, kind of like when you're watching

1357
01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:02,200
Speaker 1: the Challenge and you're like, oh, I want to go

1358
01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:07,360
Speaker 1: into the eliminator against Swaggy C because that guy terrible,

1359
01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:10,440
Speaker 1: but you know, like it's still it's still a defense

1360
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:12,760
Speaker 1: you can take advantage of. So I would do it.

1361
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:15,280
Speaker 1: By the way, they're like, do we forget like Jamis

1362
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 1: Winston was a good fantasy quarterback last year. The fantasy

1363
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 1: footballers one are are almost one the fantasy league one

1364
01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:26,560
Speaker 1: thing because of Jamis Winston, and it's there's the stupid

1365
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:31,840
Speaker 1: scoring for quarterbacks. So yeah, I definitely trust this. I

1366
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:34,600
Speaker 1: think that's the thing that Jamis Winston has somehow exploited

1367
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:37,240
Speaker 1: the loophole in quarterback scoring. And so while he might

1368
01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 1: throw three picks, will probably throw over you know, you

1369
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:43,360
Speaker 1: could throw three or four touchdowns as well, so I

1370
01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:46,120
Speaker 1: would I would definitely give him a streaming start corollary

1371
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 1: to that, because it's a question that I have been asked.

1372
01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: I know that you NFL dot com you cannot use

1373
01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill as its height end and it's not happening,

1374
01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:57,600
Speaker 1: so don't ask. But I know that you can another format.

1375
01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:00,120
Speaker 1: So people want to know, is it worth me be

1376
01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:02,720
Speaker 1: putting in Taysom at the tight end spot this week?

1377
01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:06,360
Speaker 1: You know what, honestly like, if you can play Taysom

1378
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:08,360
Speaker 1: Hill as a title, this is garbage. By the way,

1379
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 1: in those leagues can you play Can I play Jarvis

1380
01:06:11,120 --> 01:06:15,120
Speaker 1: Landry at quarterback because he's thrown a pass? How is

1381
01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:18,600
Speaker 1: that is? It? Is? Cordarrell Patterson run thing you don't

1382
01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:22,040
Speaker 1: want to get into, you know what for a tight

1383
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,560
Speaker 1: end though, Like this is to me, this is kind

1384
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:26,760
Speaker 1: of cheating. Like if you want to play Taysom Hill,

1385
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 1: play him at his position. He's a quarterback, that's what

1386
01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:32,080
Speaker 1: he's listed as. But if you get the opportunity to

1387
01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,400
Speaker 1: play him at a tight end, man, if you're not

1388
01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 1: starting Travis Kelsey and then even like the guy like

1389
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:42,760
Speaker 1: Darren Wallers good uh t J Hawkinson, Hayden Hurst Hunter handed,

1390
01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:45,880
Speaker 1: Like if you're streaming Ferks or or something like that, like,

1391
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,840
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you take a chance on Tasom Hill because

1392
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:51,360
Speaker 1: he might run in one, he might throw one. Yeah,

1393
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:52,919
Speaker 1: I would kind of, I guess I kind of would

1394
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:56,439
Speaker 1: do that. I I generally tell people facetiously to start

1395
01:06:56,560 --> 01:06:58,880
Speaker 1: him because you know, I mean, he's scoring like four

1396
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:01,360
Speaker 1: points a game, but is actually a week that if

1397
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,280
Speaker 1: you can flex him it might be worthwhile because I

1398
01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 1: do think they're gonna get the ball in his hands

1399
01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:08,120
Speaker 1: a lot more. With no Drew Brees Savant Akhmed who

1400
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:10,640
Speaker 1: played very well and got a ton of opportunity last

1401
01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:14,200
Speaker 1: week for the Dolphins. You mentioned Miami going from you know,

1402
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,640
Speaker 1: the warmth of South Beach to you know, the cold

1403
01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 1: of of Colorado. But you know, would you give Savon

1404
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:23,160
Speaker 1: Akhmeds some run against Denver this week? Well, let's also

1405
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:26,400
Speaker 1: point out that Achmed played his college football at Washington,

1406
01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:29,280
Speaker 1: so the weather is not gonna bother him. He's fine. Um,

1407
01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:32,720
Speaker 1: I love this pick up. Like I I couldn't believe

1408
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:36,240
Speaker 1: how many people I was arguing with on Twitter about

1409
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:38,240
Speaker 1: this because I know that field Yates had put something

1410
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,280
Speaker 1: out and I'm like, I agree, man, Like I love him.

1411
01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:43,480
Speaker 1: I thought that the Dolphins have shown that they will

1412
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 1: focus on one running back as long as he's productive.

1413
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:49,720
Speaker 1: Miles Gaskin was getting a lot of a lot of

1414
01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,480
Speaker 1: run when he was before he got injured, so why

1415
01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:55,680
Speaker 1: wouldn't you expect that to happen with Akhmed who played

1416
01:07:55,800 --> 01:07:58,560
Speaker 1: very well against the Chargers. And then people are like, oh,

1417
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 1: this is good kind of a one week red tool

1418
01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 1: or whatever. I'm like, yeah, he hence the discount. This

1419
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,600
Speaker 1: is why he's available on the waiver wire. I'm sorry,

1420
01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:09,400
Speaker 1: are you picking up Kareem Hunt off the waiver wire?

1421
01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:12,280
Speaker 1: Because if you are you can do that, pick up

1422
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,760
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt. But if you're a normal person in a league,

1423
01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:19,519
Speaker 1: where j D mckissic's gone Klin Balas was picked up

1424
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:23,680
Speaker 1: last week, then Okmed should be not only added right now,

1425
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:25,920
Speaker 1: he should be placed in your line. And as a

1426
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 1: matter of fact, I put him in my start list

1427
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:30,120
Speaker 1: this week. Like I'm fired up for this, Like people

1428
01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:34,040
Speaker 1: are they're killing me, Like you're getting handed a running

1429
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 1: back who's gonna play of the snaps, and you guys

1430
01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 1: like not good enough, not good It's like the people

1431
01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 1: that go and there's a there's an open bar at

1432
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:46,479
Speaker 1: a wedding or whatever, and let's just let's say your

1433
01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 1: your your your your choices that they they got a

1434
01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:52,280
Speaker 1: stone on tap and a domestic logger, and you don't

1435
01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:54,920
Speaker 1: think that's good enough. I don't like you people like

1436
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:58,120
Speaker 1: be happy that you're giving a free running back who's

1437
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:02,519
Speaker 1: gonna cost you weight. I'm I'm fired up, Marcus. I

1438
01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:05,680
Speaker 1: don't I don't understand. I don't understand. Maybe that's so

1439
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:07,960
Speaker 1: by the way hype them. Can this be the rant?

1440
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:09,760
Speaker 1: I know I used it here, so now I'll think

1441
01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 1: of a different one. But anyway, I'm fired up about this.

1442
01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:16,719
Speaker 1: But yes, it starts of a made basically I concur

1443
01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:18,760
Speaker 1: with that because the Dolphins are pretty much going one

1444
01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:20,479
Speaker 1: running back only, which is what we want. It's all

1445
01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:22,560
Speaker 1: we asked for and we're getting it. So like, you know,

1446
01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:25,120
Speaker 1: don't look this gift horse in the mouth. Last one,

1447
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:27,840
Speaker 1: Marcus Valdes scantling against the Colts who have a pretty

1448
01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:30,840
Speaker 1: good defense. But would you start MVS Man, I would

1449
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:32,600
Speaker 1: probably leave him on the bench. I think there's some

1450
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:35,439
Speaker 1: other opportunities and there's some other guys I gotta I

1451
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:38,160
Speaker 1: really need to figure out a different word for opportunity.

1452
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:40,920
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that I want to go with him

1453
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:42,680
Speaker 1: in this one. I do believe that they're going to

1454
01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:45,599
Speaker 1: throw the ball a little bit, but it's Davante Adams.

1455
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:49,479
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones is gonna get a lot more chances. This

1456
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,880
Speaker 1: seems too risky to me. Even with Aaron Rodgers, I

1457
01:09:53,040 --> 01:09:56,439
Speaker 1: expect this to be a little bit more lower scoring

1458
01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:59,400
Speaker 1: than his normal pace. I feel comfortable starting Rogers, make

1459
01:09:59,439 --> 01:10:01,439
Speaker 1: no mistake about it. But I really do believe that

1460
01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna be targeting Davante Adams heavily in this one.

1461
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,920
Speaker 1: I'm I'm off of MVS maybe because I I really

1462
01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:11,200
Speaker 1: kind of, you know, stand for him earlier in the

1463
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 1: year and then he ghosted us for a while and

1464
01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:15,599
Speaker 1: now he's back. This just feels like we're set up

1465
01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:19,040
Speaker 1: for heartbreak. So as much as he's been productive the

1466
01:10:19,120 --> 01:10:22,439
Speaker 1: last two weeks, I am staying away from Marquez Valdes Scantling.

1467
01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:25,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe the Wizard King ends up having

1468
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,000
Speaker 1: a good week, but I'm sort of off any non

1469
01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:32,760
Speaker 1: Davante Adams Packers wide receivers this week. So there you go.

1470
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:35,640
Speaker 1: So good luck hunting on the waiver wire. Hopefully you

1471
01:10:35,960 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 1: got something that you are looking for that will help

1472
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:39,920
Speaker 1: you out, and the best of luck, especially with the

1473
01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:42,760
Speaker 1: trade deadline coming up. Should be an interesting final few

1474
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:46,160
Speaker 1: weeks of the regular season. In the meantime, that is it.

1475
01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:48,360
