Welcome back to the 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:47.960 Fantasy Freestyle here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Is 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:51.000 your boy Dane Martinez holding you down? On a Monday, Yo, 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:54.720 there was a monsoon earlier today here at Rock and 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:57.440 Riley's outside here on Studio thirty four. We got this 0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:00.560 nice little roof deck patio. It's been the summertime. People were, 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:03.040 you know, hanging out and enjoying themselves here on a 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:06.480 happy hour time. But not today. Today we got like 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:10.360 my phone went off because we had like a weather emergency, 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.960 you know this, like and now everybody in the rooms 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:15.920 phone goes off at the same time because there's like 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.520 a flood watch or something. But hopefully everybody out there 0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:21.239 is all right. But uh, news and notes from around 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:23.280 Major League Baseball real quick, because we gotta get into 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.799 our starting lineup here on a Monday, we got eleven 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.839 games on the slate. Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.120 was hitting the hit by a pitch in the seventh 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:33.800 inning last night. Okay, he actually was clear to travel 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:35.320 with the team. He did make the trip with the 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:38.240 Red Sox, however, he is listed as day to day. 0:04:38.279 --> 0:04:41.640 He got plunked in the rib cage. The Raise look 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.000 like they may be getting some help coming back soon 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:46.240 to Tampa Bay. They may by the end of the 0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:50.839 week activate former closer Brad Boxberger as well as cator 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:53.800 Wilson Ramos. Remember, Ramos was signed in the off season 0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:57.160 after he hit over three hundred for the Nationals last year. 0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:01.320 The Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Rieman, who as we know, 0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:04.240 is dealing with that wrist injury, he played catch for 0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:06.200 the first time in over a month. They still say 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:08.840 he is still another month away, but it is encouraging 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:13.520 sign that he's sort of beating some timetables of his rehab. Also, 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:16.200 m R I came back clean on the wrist of 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:20.240 Cubs you super utility man Ben Zobrist. He may be 0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.800 activated from the disabled list by the end of the week. 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:27.279 Also going on the disabled list for the Cleveland Indians. 0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:31.000 His outfielder Michael Brantley Brentley last week was put on 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.760 the paternity leave list, okay for the birth of a child, 0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:36.080 but now they're moving him from the paternity list to 0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:39.200 the ten day d L because of an ankle um. 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:42.320 Branley had a very nice start to the season has 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:45.520 since cooled off. Wonder what kind of roster manipulation is 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:48.600 happening right here with the Cleveland Indians. And a sad 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:53.000 news to pass along the Yankees. You know, stud prospect 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:57.440 gliber torres Um got injured sliding into home in a 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:00.560 in a Triple A game on son Day. He is 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:03.640 going to have Tommy John surgery. A lot of people 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.599 thought that the Yankees were gonna be calling up Torres 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:09.520 at some point in the summer. That is now not 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.200 going to happen this year. Labor Torres is going to 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:15.200 have Tommy ja Don surgery. All right, Keeping it moving 0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:17.840 here on the Fantasy Freestyle. You know how we do 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.280 by now if you listen all the time, because this show, 0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:23.000 we hold ourselves accountable, not like some of these other 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:25.240 people that just make predictions and then just go back 0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:28.560 on them. Whatever the case. Maybe uh, your boy speeds 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.359 owns up to what he did. And over the weekend 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:33.599 I told you about some people that you could have 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.839 used to win that cash. I had some hits, some misses, 0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:39.120 let's go through them. On Friday, I told you the 0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:41.000 way to go was to pay up for Max Scherzer, 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.440 that he does incredible against the Mets, that he was 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.400 worth the twelve thousand, four hundred, and he was. He'd 0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:49.039 do eight innings, giving up only one run, striking out 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.560 ten as the Gnats beat the Mets seven to two 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:53.760 on Friday. I also gave you a guy in the 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:55.560 eight thousand range, and I thought it was gonna be 0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:58.040 good because he had seven or more strikeouts and five 0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:01.120 of his last six starts. That was Alex Would. He 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:03.159 didn't get you the seven caides, but he did go 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:05.719 eight innings and only give up one run as the 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.000 Dodgers won three to one against the Reds on Friday. 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:11.400 Would is now seven and oh on the season. Check 0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:13.640 him out in season long as well. I'm sure he 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:16.480 is well owned. On Saturday, though, remember I like Marcus 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.760 Stroman because he was a righty going against those pits, 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.600 poor Chicago White Sox against right e's and they were 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.680 against Mike Pelfrey. I was wrong, though. Stroman got you 0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:26.840 a quality start, but he did give up three runs 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:29.960 in seven innings, only struck out five, and interestingly enough 0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:33.640 they lost to the White Sox and Matt Mike Pelfrey 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.560 in that game. I also like Zack Godley. He was 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:39.360 only okay, did get you the eight strikeouts, did not 0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:42.520 get a quality start though in his effort against Philly, 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:44.840 and then I told you you could always go Straussburg. 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:49.120 He only though, went five and a third. Only you know, 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:51.640 only struck out five. Did get you a win, but 0:07:51.680 --> 0:07:54.000 you probably could have done better. Hopefully you didn't pay 0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:58.560 up for Straussburg on Saturday and on Sunday. Listen, listen, 0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:01.120 I've been telling you about my man, Robbie Ray. I 0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:03.440 have been on the bandwagon. I have basically been the 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:06.360 conductor of the bandwagon for Robbie Ray. He had a 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:11.040 start last night yesterday against Philly in Philly, did not 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:14.440 have his best stuff. Did strike out seven, but only 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:16.440 when five and a third and gave up four runs. 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:19.720 Those seven strikeouts, you still like though, um moving along, though, 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:22.760 you gotta ask yourself tonight where are you gonna go? Listen, 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:24.280 I got some things to tell you tonight to try 0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:26.440 and win that cash here on a Monday. Remember, first 0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:29.400 of all, that Cleveland Baltimore game delayed at the start. 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.640 Hopefully you listen to the DFS lineup block show because 0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:35.400 Benny Riccardi and Tony Sencata were talking about that. They 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:38.640 also talked about how the Astros lineup was not yet out, 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.960 so that stack maybe low owned. We're gonna get back 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:43.600 to that when we talk about our pictures as well. 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.400 Tonight is a Clayton Kershaw tonight. He is at home 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.920 against the Mets. You know, of course he's worth it, 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.280 He's always worth it. But he's going for twelve thousand, 0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:55.840 five hundred tonight on fan duel. And you know you 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:59.320 don't make any money going against Clayton Kershaw and DFS. 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.680 But I will say this, you are never gonna get 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:05.160 guys like r ns. But as a hundred Michael CONFORDO 0:09:05.240 --> 0:09:08.760 at hundred, Jay Bruce at twenty three hundred, I don't 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:11.320 think you could. But if you really want a zig 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:14.840 where someone zags in a tournament play, I mean, have 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:17.720 at it, Hoss. If you want to stack against Clayton Kershaw, 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:20.640 you wouldn't get him any time cheaper than you would 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:24.000 get those Mets today. I like John Lester today against 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:27.560 the San Diego Padres. He's at home at dred The 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.839 Padres continue to have the worst offense in Major League 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.640 Baseball down there in San Diego. They have the worst 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:36.200 runs in the major leagues, only two hundred and fifty 0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:38.319 six so far this year. But here's my off the 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.120 radar pick for you tonight to win some cash. I'm 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:43.120 gonna be throwing a couple of shekels in a lineup 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:47.680 with Brad Peacock tonight going at only seventy two hundred 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:50.680 on FanDuel at Oakland. You know, I like this change 0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:53.679 in ballpark factor if you go to Oakland. I was 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:56.880 watching the game uh this weekend when the Yankees were 0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:59.400 there in town and was once again seeing how much 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.839 that foul territory really can help a picture. So that's 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:05.880 a great part factors shift for Brad Peacock today going 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:09.320 to Oakland. Also, listen, the A's do not score a 0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:11.680 ton of runs. And the thing with Peacock, the only 0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:14.480 issue people might think he's not gonna go long. Remember 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:16.800 has had some spots starts in the past, but I 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:19.400 think he might be getting built up and actually now 0:10:19.440 --> 0:10:23.000 earning a spot in that astro's rotation. He's also going 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:25.679 up against gossip. This guy is a gas can who 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:28.400 has a sixteen e r A. And look at the 0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:31.199 strikeouts for Peacock in his last couple of starts and 0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:33.199 the last start he only went four and two thirds innings, 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:37.560 but he struck out ten guys, nine k's and six innings, 0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:40.320 eight ks and four and two thirds, eight ks and 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:42.640 four and a third. This guy can miss bats and 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:44.640 I think he will do it. And if you listen 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.200 to the lineup block, remember they said that Astro's lineup 0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:49.440 it's not out yet, so it might go low owned. 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:52.840 I think Brad Peacock at seventy two is a great 0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:58.320 way to go.

All right though, Um, 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:38.680 we're gonna when we come back after the break in 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:40.559 a couple of minutes, We're gonna swift shift gears and 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:44.000 I'm gonna give you my first of many football team 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.800 by team season previews. We're gonna start off with the 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:49.840 Los Angeles Rams. But before we do that again, like 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:51.719 I said on the Friday Show, big shout out to 0:11:51.760 --> 0:11:53.920 all the fathers out there. Happy Father's Day. I hope 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:56.480 everybody had a good one. Big shout out to momy Man, 0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:58.360 the O, G. Cob, some that I had to visit 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:01.240 in the Bronx. We you know, some baseball spent some 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:03.599 Father's Day together. It was nice. One thing that I 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:05.720 want to mention real quick. You see how they do 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:08.440 like the light blue bats and the light blue uniforms 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:10.920 on Father's Day like they do the pink on Mother's Day. 0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:12.880 I thought it was very weird. They also made the 0:12:12.960 --> 0:12:16.520 stitching of the baseball light blue, and I would be 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:19.880 interested to hear what pitchers and hitters thought about that, 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.320 because you know, coming up playing in college baseball, the 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:26.360 way you recognize like the curveball or the slider is 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:28.800 because you pick up the spin on the stitching of 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:31.160 the baseball. That's the kind of eyesight you need to 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.600 have to be an elite hitter in Major League baseball. 0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:37.040 And I wonder if that threw people off at all, 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:40.200 seeing just the light blue color. It's usually red so 0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:42.640 you could pick it up. I really wonder if that 0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:46.520 had any kind of impact on hitters yesterday. You know 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:48.600 how they have the batter's eye in the back of 0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:51.079 any ballpark, It is because you need to be able 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:53.319 to pick out the baseball, say you know, not from 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.280 say like white T shirts in the background, so they 0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:57.960 have a solid color. Your eye is also trained to 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:00.840 recognize the stitching, like in an speed pitch you see 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:03.000 a dot as opposed to say the circle of the 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:06.280 seams on a fastball. And I'm really interested to see 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:10.320 if any hitters you know, couldn't pick that up. If 0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:12.040 you if you are a hitter, in Major League Baseball. 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:14.360 And that's and you had to struggle yesterday. Call him 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:17.560 in now at seven nine and let me know. But 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:19.839 when we come back, your boy speeds and spitting statistician 0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:23.480 first speed spotlight for the NFL season coming up Los 0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:26.839 Angeles Rams. It should, boy Dame Martinez Speeds, the spitting statistician, 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:29.480 come all right back on the Fantasy Freestyle here on 0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:50.960 the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We are back 0:13:51.040 --> 0:13:54.400 on the Fantasy Freestyle here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:57.640 You should, boy Dame Martinez Speeds, the spitting statistician holding 0:13:57.640 --> 0:14:00.840 you down with Donnie Burns keeping it so hot that 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:04.360 we sweat steam. Joining the sight here. Like I said, man, 0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:07.320 we have thirty two teams to cover. I don't know 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:10.560 if you guys are realizing this or not, but we're 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:14.559 only like six or seven weeks out from preseason football 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:17.600 and fantasy football really starting to heat up. So let 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:20.000 me give you right now some news and notes that 0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:22.880 we had from the end of mini camps. Uh. Kelvin 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.720 Benjamin wide receiver for the Panthers. Uh. This is kind 0:14:25.720 --> 0:14:29.040 of like a you know, backwards compliment. They're saying that 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:32.040 he is looking less fat than he did at the 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:36.320 beginning after the you know, offseason training program. Maybe he 0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:38.840 could be a draft value if he does slip. I 0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:41.400 will say this though, I think the Carolina offense is 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:43.520 gonna look a lot different than it did last year 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:46.280 with the additions of Curtis Samuel and of course Christian 0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:48.800 McCaffrey in the first round. We'll get into that a 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:52.080 little bit later. On second year wide receiver Kwan Treadwell 0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:54.440 for the Minnesota Vikings. He has been listed and has 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:58.080 been running as the number three wide receiver in Minnesota. 0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:01.480 Remember they have Stephen Karen you who digs it, and 0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:04.400 Adam feeling At locked in as the top two, but 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:07.280 they are working Lakwan Treadville as the three ahead of 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:10.120 Michael Floyd. Remember Michael Floyd got that uh you know, 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:12.680 he says it's about bucha that had alcohol in it, 0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:15.840 But I don't know. It looks like Treadwell is ahead 0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:19.680 of him on the depth chart and in big time 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:24.160 wide receiver news. Also, the Tennessee Titans signed former New 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:28.160 York Jet, former Denver bronco Eric Decker to a one 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:31.520 year deal. Listen, they now have Eric Decker on one side. 0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:34.520 Remember they drafted in the first round Corey Davis. They 0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:38.720 already have Delaney Walker at tight end. They have been exotic, 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:42.720 smash mouthing all over the place with Murray and Henry 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:46.080 Mariota and up and coming quarterback. I have been on 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:48.240 this team and we preview the Titans, You're going to 0:15:48.280 --> 0:15:50.520 see a team that I think could contend not only 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:53.680 for the playoffs, but for that division title. Also, as 0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:56.280 usually got some greatest shape of his life stories. Big 0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:59.560 Ben in Pittsburgh is saying that Martavis Bryant quote unquote 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:02.840 looks like a stud former Chargers running back. Now with 0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:05.880 the Ravens. Danny Woodhead, they say, quote unquote they have 0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:08.240 lost track of how many balls he caught, and that 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:10.440 he is going to be a big part of that 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:13.400 passing game and even in the red zone. That is 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:15.920 not good news for Terence West, but I tell you 0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:18.920 it happened in San Diego. Also, they have no fear 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:21.600 of using a guy like Danny Woodhead in the red 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.800 zone and even on the goal line. Danny Woodhead will 0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:30.040 be a monster PPR back as usual. Also, um they 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:32.440 are now saying that Jared Goff out there in Los 0:16:32.480 --> 0:16:36.200 Angeles quote unquote learned much quicker than this year, and 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:40.760 that they've actually been able to actually install of that 0:16:40.880 --> 0:16:44.360 new offense. Remember first year head coach uh Top McVeigh 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:47.840 going over there. But so that's just some news and notes. 0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:50.600 But the real truth is we hook you up here 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:53.080 at Rhodo Experts because some guys are focusing on their 0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:56.320 upcoming draft later this summer.

All right, here's where we're gonna go. 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:48.760 We're gonna go into the Los Angeles Rams right now. 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:50.959 Remember a new head coach over there. I'm gonna tell 0:17:50.960 --> 0:17:52.280 you the way we're gonna do this is we're gonna 0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:55.199 go position by position, give you you know what what 0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:57.840 I expect. Then we're gonna talk about the team in 0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:00.280 terms of where they are in their division, their old run, 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:02.800 there's things like that. Remember, we gotta pull question up 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:04.920 about the Rams. Will check out there, We'll check out 0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:07.240 their poll results, and then we'll get Donnie Burns to 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:09.640 give his take or two as well on the Los 0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:12.680 Angeles Ram. So I'm gonna start off. Listen the quarterback 0:18:12.720 --> 0:18:15.400 we know, Jared Goff. The Rams are still searching. They're 0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:18.560 they're expecting maybe he takes a step forward. I you know, 0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:20.200 for the guy who still doesn't know where the sun 0:18:20.320 --> 0:18:22.560 rises and sets. I am waiting on it. He will 0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:24.359 not be on any of my teams. This is the 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:27.359 important thing though, at running back. Have you been listening 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:29.440 to me? For now over a year. I have been 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:32.520 saying that defenses will put fifty three men in the 0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:35.680 box against Todd Gurley. There is now no reason. I 0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:38.200 don't care that they signed Robert Woods in the off season. 0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:41.199 I don't care about Jared Goff. They think taking a 0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:44.119 step forward. If you're a defense, you still are gonna 0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:47.200 stack the box against Todd Gurley. I kind of feel 0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:49.720 bad for him, but this guy is a big time 0:18:49.760 --> 0:18:52.320 for Gazey for me this year. I he will not 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:54.919 be on any of my teams because he is just 0:18:55.000 --> 0:18:57.720 not gonna get loose. I have a diamond that you 0:18:57.800 --> 0:18:59.920 may not think coming out of that running back room 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:02.159 a little bit later on white outs, these guys are 0:19:02.160 --> 0:19:04.600 not gonna be on my team either. I'm talking Robert Woods, 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:07.800 Tavon Austin. These guys are wide out threes best. They 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:11.359 are not dynamic whiteouts. They have a bad quarterback getting 0:19:11.400 --> 0:19:14.760 it to them. This is not a high octane, productive offense. 0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:16.960 I want no part of these guys. I would take 0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:20.479 the number two or three receiver on a higher powered team. 0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:22.840 You know what I'm saying, Give me the number three 0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:26.160 receiver in Pittsburgh. Give me the number three receiver, Give 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:29.600 me Willie Snead in New Orleans over a guy like 0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:31.639 Austin or Woods who are gonna be vuying to be 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.639 the number one guy in Los Angeles. I'm telling you 0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:37.240 if you project like I'm looking at Mike Clay's even 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:39.320 projections for a guy like Robert Woods, who he thinks 0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:41.560 is gonna be the number one wide out in Los 0:19:41.640 --> 0:19:44.720 Angeles with the Rams, and he's projecting six and eight 0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:47.960 ten for Robert Woods. He's projecting fifty six and seven 0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:50.679 oh seven for Tavon Austin. Again, those are the Mike 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:54.560 Clay projections, And like, I'd rather have Wullie Sneed than that. 0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:58.159 I like, I'm staying away from this offense at tight end. 0:19:58.160 --> 0:19:59.720 If you are in a very deep league and you 0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:02.920 want to deep sleeper, my man Tyler Higgbee could be 0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:05.800
