Okay, Yeah, 0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:06.640 the football season is over, but the football season is 0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:09.280 twelve months a year, so we're gonna get into it. 0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:11.280 We're gonna talk about some of the big things that 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:15.960 have already happened, um Alex Smith to the Washington football team. 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:17.920 We're gonna get into that. We're also gonna give you 0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:20.040 some of my thoughts on what to look for in 0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:23.000 fantasy football. Let's say you're in some dynasty leagues. It 0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:26.800 keeps on going. We're gonna get into that also today yeah, 0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:28.760 it's Marty Gras. I don't have my beads yet, but 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:30.359 if someone wants to hit me up on Twitter with 0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:32.680 a little gift of some beads, I will take that 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:35.520 as well. I will even show you know what I'm 0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:38.400 talking about. But on Major League Baseball, we gotta get 0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:41.840 into this as well, because pictures and catchers are reporting 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:44.880 this week, and so I'm gonna get into you know, 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:48.079 We're gonna start doing division by division previews. I'm gonna 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.639 start to let you know who you need to rely on, 0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:52.720 who you need to throw a couple of shekels on 0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:54.520 if you want to win a little bit of cash 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.360 in the Major League Baseball season. And I'm also going 0:02:57.400 --> 0:03:03.200 to talk about the business of baseball and why there 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:07.000 are so many free agents still left unsigned. I have 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:09.560 a couple of theories on about that. We're gonna talk 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:13.320 about this Major League Baseball Players Association Spring training that 0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:15.960 is gonna happen. And then, as always towards the end 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:18.360 of the show with my boy Danny Otto, where you're 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.720 gonna put the fun in functional sports News, I got 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:23.639 a couple of things I want to get after you with. 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.399 And also we will hear from the Stats over beat 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:28.960 Cipher because it is the fantasy Freestyle. So you know, 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:32.000 you boy Speeds, we can talk about anything. We also 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.720 have a poll up on Twitter. If you want to 0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:38.000 holler at me, you can at spitting Speeds on Twitter. 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:42.360 The poll today is if you were an unsigned major 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:45.040 League baseball free agent and there's like ninety of you 0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:47.800 out there, I see you out there. You probably listening 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:49.840 to Spitting Speeds right now because you're not you know, 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:53.600 you're not at spring training yet. Would you risk injury? 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:56.000 And would you go out there to this Major League 0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:59.280 Baseball Players Association spring training that they're holding, you know, 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.840 to kind of stay in baseball shape, to have the 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.800 camaraderie of the crew, maybe to get noticed by one 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.400 of these teams that you're negotiating with. But here's the 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:11.480 only problem. What happens if you know, you tweak an elbow, 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:15.200 you bust an achilles. You don't have a contract. So 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:18.679 that's my question. Would you go to this spring training? 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.920 Would you risk injury? Would you get that exposure? Yes? 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:24.320 Or no? Let me know about that. Will check in 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.840 on that later on in the show. Here's what we're 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:28.800 gonna do. Here's what we're gonna do. We are going 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:32.279 to start with football, because, as you know, football is king, 0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:34.719 and I helped y'all win your leagues and win that 0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:37.920 cash all throughout the football season with the hashtag stats 0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:40.839 over beat Cipher. So let's get into some of this news. Okay, 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:45.240 let's start at the running back position. DeMarco Murray is 0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:48.600 gonna get cut by the Tennessee Titans. Okay, the Titans 0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:51.240 are likely to cut DeMarco Murray and you can add 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:54.599 then his name into the free agent kind of merry 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.080 go round. At the running back position, I'm talking about 0:04:57.080 --> 0:04:59.960 DeMarco Murray. What about Carlos Hide? I think Jerick May 0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:03.080 Kennan will be there as well. What about Dion Lewis, 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:07.280 Isaiah Crowell. These are all running backs where honestly, if 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:09.480 you're in a dynasty league, you need to check out 0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:13.280 where they land. They may be in much better opportunities 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:16.600 for themselves. Think about a guy like Dion Lewis, for example. 0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:20.400 I've been saying for months that trying to predict the 0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:24.560 New England Patriots running back situation is a fool's errand right, 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:27.080 because you got Burkehead, there, you got James White, there, 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.800 you have Mike Gilliesley there who continues to vulture touchdowns. 0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:34.279 Maybe Dion Lewis goes somewhere else where he could be 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:37.080 paired with one kind of between the tackles back and 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:40.680 really pop off. For example, what if he wound up 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:44.960 in Oakland? That would be interesting, right, So you gotta 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:47.479 keep your eyes out for that. Those are some names 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.960 at the running back position. Let's get into the wide 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:54.680 receiver position. My man, Larry fits magic. Larry Fitzgerald continues 0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:58.320 to say he needs more time to decide. We're supposed 0:05:58.360 --> 0:06:00.360 to get an answer for him this week. But I'm 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.360 gonna tell you the truth. If I was Larry Fitzgerald, 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.840 I'd walk away. Okay, you got a new coach you 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.479 gotta deal with. You're gonna have a new quarterback to 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:10.839 deal with. Do you really want to be part of 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:13.919 a rebuild with the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West? 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:17.400 I don't think so. The Rams are ascending, the forty 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:21.839 Niners ascending, Seattle still there. If you're Larry Fitzgerald, why 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.680 would you continue to toil and risk you know, your 0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:28.040 CTE and all that good brain injuries stuff when you're 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.400 gonna be at the bottom of the division anyway, that's 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:32.799 why your boys speed. That spitting statistician thinks that Larry 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.880 Fitzgerald is about to walk away, and you will hear 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:40.320 about that this week in my humble opinion. But there's 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:43.480 other wide receivers out there besides Fitzy. Okay, what about 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:47.280 a R fifteen Alan Robinson. He could be a huge 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:52.159 edition for someone on the outside. What about Rrell Prior, 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:58.360 Mike Wallace, Mark kis Lee, Dante Moncrief, m yum on Crief. 0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:00.960 You know he could be out there as well. There's 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:03.440 gonna be a lot of movement and we will keep 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:06.919 our eyes on it. Free agency will start next month 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:09.920 in the NFL. That believe the league New Year starts 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:12.760 around March, like eighth or ninth something in that area, 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.320 and you're gonna start to see free agents get signed 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:18.080 left and right, and that will lay the groundwork for 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.840 what teams need in the NFL Draft in late April. 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:23.720 We talk about the running backs that are out there, 0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:25.920 we talk about the wide receivers that are out there. 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:28.559 Let's talk tight ends for a hot second as well. 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:30.880 And the news in the tight end world is a 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:32.680 little bit different. It's not like all these guys are 0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:36.240 getting cut. Check this out. There's a couple of tight 0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:40.960 ends that are considering retirement, and I think this is 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.600 very very interesting. Okay, in Houston with the Texans, c 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:48.840 J fedoro Wits admits that he is considering retirement. In 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:53.120 Philadelphia with the world champion Philly Philly Eagles, and anybody 0:07:53.120 --> 0:07:56.080 who listens to the stats Overbeat Cipher which boys speeds 0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:58.800 on the Fantasy Freestyle, knows that I was on the 0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:01.520 Eagles from jump. You can go and check. If you're 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:04.800 you know, subscribe to the podcast. Go check the August 0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:08.520 nine edition of the Fantasy Freestyle where your man Speeds. 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:12.200 The spitting statistician says that the Philadelphia Eagles will win 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.640 the NFC East will be in the NFC Championship Game. 0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.760 I was early with it, like nobody else in the industry, 0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:21.480 but that's what I do. I call my shots. Brent 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:26.440 Selik on the Philadelphia Eagles is also considering retirement. And then, 0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:29.480 unless you have been living under a rock, you know 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:34.880 that New England Patriots all world tight end Rob Gronkowski 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:38.920 is also considering retirement. Let me tell you something. I 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:42.120 think this is real. Okay, he had that concussion he 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.520 got jacked up in the a f C Championship game 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:47.440 by the cat scratch fever, and I think that affected him. 0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.480 But here's the thing. Unlike most of these other players 0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:55.280 who get knocked around, my man Gronk, he can go 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:58.120 be ah, he can go be a sponsor, he can 0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:00.600 go be an actor, he can will do a lot 0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:03.559 of other things to get him that same cheddar that 0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:06.520 he's doing right now getting his clock cleaned on a 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.400 week end, week out Basis, this is a man who 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:12.880 has had not one, not two, but three back surgeries. 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:16.680 This man is only eight years old. He still wants to, 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:18.760 you know, do a little dancing with the stars. He 0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:21.160 still wants to have his singles cruise. I call it 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:24.000 the ss X the se But that's besides the point. 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:26.920 So a lot of tight ends are considering, you know, 0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:30.880 moving away from this game, and I don't blame them. 0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:32.880 The tight end position you're doing a lot of the 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:36.760 blocking the car crashes that happen on literally every single play, 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.280 and which you're also doing is you're going over the middle. 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.959 A guy like Gronk has a target on his back. 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:46.000 Everybody is trying to be the guy that knocks out Gronkowski. Okay, 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:48.200 so that's what's happened in the tight end world. Okay, 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:51.600 in the coaching world. Let's catch you up right here 0:09:51.600 --> 0:09:53.320 on the fantasy Freestyle because a lot of my people 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:55.839 on stats over beat Cipher have not heard from the 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:58.840 spitting statistician in a while. The biggest thing I think 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:03.800 this is absolutely crazy. Josh McDaniels, the offensive coordinator of 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:06.240 the New England Patriots. It was like a fatal complete. 0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:08.960 I was telling you guys during the during the playoffs 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:11.320 that Matt Patricia will wind up being the coach in 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:13.920 Detroit and that Josh McDaniels will wind up being the 0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:17.240 coach in Indianapolis. Well, Patricia is over there with my 0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:22.040 man Jim Bob Couterer in Detroit now. But Josh McDaniels 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:24.440 decided to have a little bit of a change of heart. 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:27.640 Do you guys remember maybe that, Uh, there was an 0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:30.000 old game show where like a date, a couple that 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.440 was having issues, they would go out on dates with 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:34.680 other people and your choice was like stay together or 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:37.480 have a change of heart. Well, Josh McDaniels had a 0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:41.160 change of heart. I don't know why rumors are there. 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:44.120 Bob Kraft pretty much a sweetened the deal through a 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:47.960 little a couple of extra zeros on that paycheck. There's 0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:51.560 also the question if he is now, in essence, the 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:56.000 the head coach in waiting, the the the successor to 0:10:56.160 --> 0:11:00.000 Bill Belichick. Whether that is the case or not, Josh McDaniels, 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.800 I'm gonna tell you why I don't like his move. 0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:07.000 Not only did he piss off the Colts, but he 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.840 piste off thirty other teams in the NFL. What team 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:13.800 is gonna, you know, sign this guy now, even down 0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:16.760 the road after he showed that he had cold feet 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:21.280 with a different organization. Okay, I think Josh McDaniels defecated 0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:25.440 the mattress on this one and completely rendered himself useless 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:29.280 for any team that is not the New England Patriots. 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:33.479 So he better be the air apparent to Bill Belichick 0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:35.839 up there in New England. Let me tell you two 0:11:35.920 --> 0:11:38.960 other things that are kind of ripple effects from this decision, 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:43.520 this cold feat by Josh McDaniels. One homeboy had his 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:47.720 defensive coordinator, offensive coordinator, and other position coaches in place. 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:52.040 They were in the building in Indianapolis, working prepping, prepping 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:56.000 for free agency and the draft, getting ready. They left 0:11:56.080 --> 0:12:00.520 other jobs to go work for McDaniels in Indianapolis, and 0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:03.000 now he left them at the altar. What are these 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:06.400 guys gonna do when the new head coach comes in 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.240 and he has come in and it is former Philadelphia 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:12.320 Eagles offensive coordinator Frank Reich. You may know him. I 0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:15.400 know my boy, Gabe Moransey knows him from his days 0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:18.240 up there with the Bills Mafia as a backup quarterback, 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:20.800 the quarterback who led one of the greatest comebacks of 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:23.280 all time in the playoffs against the Houston Oilers. I 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:26.199 believe that was in three coming back from a huge 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:29.760 deficit in a big time win in the playoffs. This 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:31.520 is a guy that is now going to be the 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:36.000 head coach of Indianapolis. But he's he's inheriting now McDaniels coaches. 0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:38.760 Does he want that? I don't know. But if you're 0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:42.880 a coach who left another job to become, you know, 0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:47.200 the linebackers coach for the Colts, now all of a sudden, 0:12:47.200 --> 0:12:49.120 you left holding the bag and you're gonna have a 0:12:49.160 --> 0:12:51.720 different you know, a different supervisor, a different head coach. 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:54.080 That is one thing that I think he did. He 0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:58.360 did his assistant coaches dirty here's the other thing. Check 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:01.800 this out. His eight his agent is a guy named 0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:05.320 Bob LaMonte. He dropped him. He's not representing him anymore 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:08.280 because check this out. If you're the agent, you can't 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:11.480 rap this guy. You can't rap this guy anymore because 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:13.400 you know he's a poison pill to most of the 0:13:13.480 --> 0:13:16.920 NFL teams. You have to get distance from that. And 0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:20.760 so he dropped him. He also represents the general manager 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:24.600 of the Indianapolis could so he apparently made his choice. 0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:26.480 But when we talk about head coaching news, that is 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.640 the biggest one. And obviously more coordinators are gonna get 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:31.559 filled when I'm back next time, and they're gonna be 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:34.040 so many ways you can hear spitting speeds. Okay, I'm 0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:35.840 gonna talk about all those a little bit later on 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:37.880 in the show. But that is the biggest news out 0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:40.520 of the head coaching. And then let's go to the quarterbacks. 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:42.760 There are two things we gotta get into as as 0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:45.400 it comes to a quarterback news here in the NFL. 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:48.920 The first is, oh, my goodness, my man, the analyst 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:52.440 Chris Ventra is gonna be so happy because his boy 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:58.719 Jimmy g Q, Jimmy hay Sous Jimmy Garoppolo is a 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:02.719 rich man. Is a rich man, My man. Jimmy Garoppolo 0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:07.800 signed a five year, one hundred and thirty seven million 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:11.000 dollar contract. Yeah, it's funloaded. He's gonna make forty three 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:13.360 million dollars in his first year. But check this out. 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:15.000 I thought this was interesting and it's up on my 0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:18.000 Twitter if you want to check that out at spitting speeds. Um, 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:20.720 Jimmy g in this contract a hundred thirty seven million. 0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:25.480 Get this. Tom Brady in his first fourteen seasons in 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:29.160 the NFL made a hundred thirty five million. Jimmy Garoppolo 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:31.560 is gonna make more in these next five years than 0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:34.600 all the avocados, all the ugs, and all the money 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:38.040 Gizell had for that family. So that's one thing. And 0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:40.720 Jimmy Garoppolo, listen, he went five and oh had that 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:43.400 passer rating really hurt people with their forty nine is 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:45.280 over under season win total bets if you want to 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:48.360 know the truth. But they're looking like they're looking like 0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:51.800 a team on the rise. They also have a ton 0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:54.280 of money to spend. So when you talk about a 0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:58.040 guy like oh, Alan Robinson perhaps could be a nice 0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:00.240 little target for him if any of these guys wind 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:03.440 up in San Francisco with Jimmy Garoppolo. I like that 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:05.800 as an improvement. Think about it. What if you know, 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:09.360 Mike Wallace becomes his deep threat. What if Dante Moncrief 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.400 gets out of Indianapolis to become the second or third 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:15.680 wide receiver there. Remember you got Pierre Garson. Remember Marquis 0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:20.200 Goodwin had great chemistry with Jimmy Garopps at the end 0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.120 of the season. And don't forget about my man. If 0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:24.480 my man, Mike Florio's down there in the pit of misery, 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:26.440 he knows who I'm talking about. I'm talking about tight 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:29.200 end George Kittle, who's gonna be a second year player. 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:31.960 That might be an interesting little dynasty status. You may 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:33.800 have had him on your bench at the end of 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:35.840 the year, right, You may have had him on your bench. 0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:38.080 You may have had a guy like Trey Burton on 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:40.480 your bench after the zach ERT's injury at the end 0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:42.480 of the year. He is going to be a free 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:45.840 agent as well. Generally speaking, in dynasty leagues, what you 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:47.840 need to do is see who are gonna be these 0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:52.000 free agents, because their situation may change. Trey Burton is 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:56.200 a great example of that. Allen Robinson a great example 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:59.400 of that. Jerick McKinnon a great example of that. If 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:02.440 he stays in Minnesota, he's gonna have Dalvin Cook coming back. 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.360 He's still gonna have Litterarious Murray ahead of him. If 0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.240 he winds up going somewhere else where, he could be 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.000 the past catching guy, the third down guy. His value 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:13.440 tremendously improves. All Right, we talked about Jimmy Garops. The 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:16.880 other quarterback situation we have to talk about because obviously 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:21.320 this big trade that went down. So it's interesting because 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:22.800 you know, last time I was here live on the 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:25.480 Fantasy Sports Radio Network, I talked about how Alex Smith 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:28.560 said he wants to stay in Kansas City. He wants 0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:30.520 to then be with a playoff contender and then lo 0:16:30.680 --> 0:16:32.840 and behol. The next day he gets moved to the 0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:36.920 Washington football team for Kendall Fuller and a third round pick. 0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:40.120 I don't understand this deal. Y'all need to help me. 0:16:40.480 --> 0:16:43.000 Danny down in the stats overbeat Cipher down there on 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:47.120 the live YouTube chat find out if people get this trade, 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:50.360 because I think that the Washington football team, I don't 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:53.120 know what they are really doing. They traded a guy 0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:55.200 Kirk Cousins, who they were kicking the can down the 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:59.720 road franchising him, giving him twenty four million dollars a year. 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:04.199 And check this out. Kirk Cousins is it n year 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:08.359 old with a career quarterback rating of ninety three point seven. 0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:13.919 Alex Smith is a thirty three year old with a 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:18.680 career passer rating of eight seven point four. Yet they 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:21.200 decided that it was all good to sign Alex Smith 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:25.720 to a four year, ninety four million dollar extension. Why 0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:29.320 is Smith worth the money and kirk Cousins not. I 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:34.120 think the situation just got to rancorous, got to politicize there, 0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:37.000 and they just had to move on. And so for that, 0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:39.720 I think it's all good. You know. I think Alex 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:43.240 Smith will be serviceable there. But as Alex Smith said 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:46.520 he wanted a playoff contender, I'm not so sure that 0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:49.800 the Washington football team is a playoff contender. Here's what 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:52.879 I'll say, though, because y'all gotta look at it in 0:17:53.000 --> 0:17:57.560 terms of improvements or drop offs for the people around them, 0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:01.199 right and in Washington. This is very interesting. As you know, 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.400 Alex Smith is a guy with like a very low 0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:06.159 depth of target yards per attempt. He is the dink 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:10.200 and dunk king right to check down man. So think 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:13.120 about Chris Thompson though, Think about Chris Thompson who had 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.359 a sick year until tearing some ligaments right in about 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:19.200 week ten or eleven whenever that was. I think Chris 0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:22.240 Thompson is in line, especially in PPR, leaves to do 0:18:22.359 --> 0:18:25.080 even better because Alex Smith don't throw the ball down 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:27.680 the field. But here's the other guy that I think 0:18:27.680 --> 0:18:29.760 it really really helps. I think it really really helps 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:33.439 Jamison Crowder. Jamison Crowder as a slot guy. He's your 0:18:33.480 --> 0:18:35.840 like two way go kind of guy. He's gonna be 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:38.240 doing those crossing routes. He is a guy who I 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:42.320 think will quickly become the favorite target of Alex Smith. 0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.280 I think a guy like Josh Dotson who's supposed to 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:46.920 be the X wide receiver down the you know, down 0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:50.320 the field, not gonna do so well for him. On 0:18:50.400 --> 0:18:54.320 the other side left in Kansas City, Yeah, my man, 0:18:54.400 --> 0:18:57.800 Patty Mahomes, I think Patty Mahomes is going to be 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:02.320 a breakout study. I'm telling you this, like seven months 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:05.639 before football season starts, you are going to hear a 0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:11.120 lot about this. Remember the name Patrick Mahomes, This kid 0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:15.240 is the prototypical gun slinger. They compare him to guys 0:19:15.280 --> 0:19:17.919 like Brett farvev. This is a guy who's going to 0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:21.440 push it down the field. He has some mobility as well. 0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:24.160 So you know who that looks good for. That looks 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:27.679 good for my man, Tyreek Hill. No one can stretch 0:19:27.760 --> 0:19:30.000 the defense like Tyreek Hill. This is a guy. This 0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:32.320 is like a younger version of the Shawn Jackson. Right. 0:19:33.160 --> 0:19:35.520 And now that you have Mahomes who's gonna throw the 0:19:35.560 --> 0:19:38.439 ball down the field? I think this really opens that 0:19:38.600 --> 0:19:41.719 up for a guy like Tyreek Hill. So Tyree Hill benefits, 0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:46.480 Jamison Crowder benefits, I think Chris Thompson benefits as well. 0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:48.439 All right, So that's the thing. But then the question 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:50.840 is what about Kirk Cousins. Where does he wind up. 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:53.760 I'm gonna give you a couple of opportunities, okay. One 0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.040 is if Cleveland just wants to break the bank. If 0:19:57.040 --> 0:20:00.680 the Browns, who have like the most cap money of anybody, says, 0:20:00.840 --> 0:20:04.000 you know what, yeah, Kirk, we'll give you thirty million 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:07.960 a year, come on down. I defy him to say no, 0:20:08.600 --> 0:20:11.160 even though you know he'll be with a team that's 0:20:11.160 --> 0:20:13.280 one in thirty one in their last two seasons, right, 0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:16.960 But that's an option. That's an option. And I think 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:19.920 if they make Kirk Cousins, you know, uh an offer, 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:23.040 he can't refuse. I think they still draft the quarterback 0:20:23.080 --> 0:20:26.080 with one of their top four picks. What about the Jets? 0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:28.800 What about the Jets? What about the New York Jets? 0:20:28.800 --> 0:20:31.600 And here's the interesting connection there. Jeremy Bates the offensive 0:20:31.600 --> 0:20:35.520 coordinator there, he's one of these Kyle Shanahan uh Sean 0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:41.119 McVeigh disciples. Right, so maybe he Cousins feels like, oh 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:44.320 the system fits. I've got a decent defense. I have 0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:47.160 some weapons to work with. I would keep an eye 0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:49.359 out for the New York Jets. Although if you watch, 0:20:49.520 --> 0:20:51.359 you know, if you listen or watch the Fantasy freestyle, 0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:53.280 you're part of stats over beat Cipher with speeds, the 0:20:53.280 --> 0:20:57.560 spitting statistician, the stable genius and vocal minority. You know 0:20:58.280 --> 0:20:59.719 that I want no part of that from my New 0:20:59.800 --> 0:21:02.280 York Jets. I don't think they're a quarterback away. I 0:21:02.280 --> 0:21:05.160 think they need to continue to build from within, build 0:21:05.200 --> 0:21:07.520 on the lines, and build out. But that's another topic 0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:10.560 for another day. There's a lot of other places. What 0:21:10.600 --> 0:21:12.920 about there are some teams that are really only a 0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:18.800 quarterback away. Denver comes to mind, Jacksonville comes to mind. 0:21:19.440 --> 0:21:22.679
