Speaker 1: this is like a regular Tuesday show a month at
Speaker 1: a half from now. I'm gonna be here on Tuesday
Speaker 1: inside Studio thirty four, giving it to you, talking about waivers, right,
Speaker 1: talking about what I like coming up for the next week.
Speaker 1: And we're gonna do that today as well. We got
Speaker 1: a big show for you, Like I said when I
Speaker 1: saw you last on Thursday, Guys and gals, a lot
Speaker 1: of roster movement over this weekend after the fourth preseason game.
Speaker 1: A lot of people say the fourth preseason game does
Speaker 1: not matter. I beg to differ. Something like eleven hundred
Speaker 1: players in the NFL got cut over the last weekend.
Speaker 1: It matters to them and their families, even if it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter your fantasy football roster. I'll tell you what
Speaker 1: may matter for fantasy. So we'll get you all caught
Speaker 1: up on you know, everything from who got cut, who
Speaker 1: got traded, who got signed, and who still has not
Speaker 1: walked into the facility. We'll talk about that. I'll also listen.
Speaker 1: I've been giving you my diamonds and my fool gasse
Speaker 1: the guys you need to forget about at every position, right,
Speaker 1: So we're gonna do that, but this time for defenses,
Speaker 1: all right, We're gonna do that. Then what we're gonna
Speaker 1: do is listen. There are some leagues you may have
Speaker 1: drafted in like late July. You may have drafted in
Speaker 1: early August. Okay, I'm in a couple of expert leagues,
Speaker 1: the Flex League for one, where I drafted it was
Speaker 1: like the first weekend in August. There's some players that
Speaker 1: are available in the player universe now that were not then.
Speaker 1: A lot of leagues are doing their initial waiver run
Speaker 1: today tomorrow. I'm gonna give you a position by position
Speaker 1: guys that you can target, and then, of course we
Speaker 1: put the fun in functional sports content here on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy freesty Out, We're gonna get down with the stats
Speaker 1: over beat Cipher. We're gonna check in with my man
Speaker 1: Danny Otto and his vacation, all that good stuff. Big
Speaker 1: shout out as always my people that are always right there.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Strong Style Ninja Yo. Fred Martinez, Yo.
Speaker 1: We need to do some twenty three and me pot
Speaker 1: to see if we're in the same tree. D Gold,
Speaker 1: what is up? Deep Blue? To l A, what is up?
Speaker 1: Renee figured Aw, what is up? Uh? Ernest Delva, That's
Speaker 1: what it is, all right. People are talking about Levan Bell.
Speaker 1: We are going to talk about Levan Bell. Remember I
Speaker 1: mentioned some people who have yet to walk into the facility.
Speaker 1: Lev Bell is definitely one of them. I'll talk about
Speaker 1: the way I would play lev Bell, But we have
Speaker 1: a poll question up as well, and it's around Bell.
Speaker 1: What is your level of concern right now? Okay, the
Speaker 1: last year he walked in on Labor Day, people said
Speaker 1: on social media he was gonna walk in on Labor Day.
Speaker 1: This year he was like nah, ag news, no collision,
Speaker 1: and he was like, no, I'm not. I expected him
Speaker 1: to walk into the facility today. Didn't happen. So if
Speaker 1: he comes tomorrow, and personally, I'm telling you right now,
Speaker 1: I believe that Levan Bell will report to the Pittsburgh
Speaker 1: Steelers in the next twenty four hours. That is my belief.
Speaker 1: I believe that when I am sitting here on Thursday
Speaker 1: with the stats over beat Cipher, we're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: Levian Bell as a full participant in Thursday's practice, will
Speaker 1: be talking about him as like is he up to
Speaker 1: speed yet or not? That's Thursday. But right now, he
Speaker 1: still has yet to walk into the facility. So my
Speaker 1: question for you is what is your level of concern
Speaker 1: for Levan Bell? Four week one now? Last year. Remember
Speaker 1: he came in and then weeks one and two it
Speaker 1: was it was I, but it wasn't Left Bell right.
Speaker 1: So what's your level of concern there? Is it that, hey,
Speaker 1: everything's gonna be fine. Is it I'm a little concerned
Speaker 1: but I'm still starting him, or is it, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I need James Connor right now? Thank you to the
Speaker 1: over a hundred people that have already voted in the
Speaker 1: last hour since I put it up. We'll check in
Speaker 1: with that right now. A lot of you guys got
Speaker 1: your hair on fire. You thinking like chicken, little like
Speaker 1: the sky is falling. Forties six percent of you say,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I need James Conner. I'll tell you
Speaker 1: what I think about that in a hot second. Let's
Speaker 1: get you all caught up. If you were living under
Speaker 1: a rock for the last weekend, I got you. First
Speaker 1: of all. Jerrick McKinnon torn a c L done for
Speaker 1: two thousand and eighteen. Okay, he did this in a
Speaker 1: non contact injury. I've been telling you guys for the
Speaker 1: better part of two months that I liked Jerick McKinnon overall.
Speaker 1: When I you know, when he got moved, But then
Speaker 1: I thought the HP train went way too far on
Speaker 1: Jerick McKinnon. I told you guys, I was out on
Speaker 1: Jerick McKinnon, and I made the comparison of other backs
Speaker 1: that flashed in a PPR rule role but then couldn't
Speaker 1: handle the load as the main guy. I said Jack
Speaker 1: McKinnon was in that conversation. If you listen to me,
Speaker 1: you avoided Jerick McKinnon. I'm gonna tell you right now
Speaker 1: what you need to do, though. You need to scoop
Speaker 1: up alf Morris. Okay, Alfred Morris is going to be
Speaker 1: the early down back for the San Francisco forty Niners
Speaker 1: this year. Matt breed Up has a role, but it
Speaker 1: is a pass catching PPR kind of role. Alfred Morris
Speaker 1: is the guy they went out and got. Why because
Speaker 1: because of his time in our nation's capital with Kyle Shanahan,
Speaker 1: he knows the system. He's not going to be exciting,
Speaker 1: but he is a starting running back in the NFL
Speaker 1: who you can get for very cheap. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: him in our waiver wire as well, so that Jack
Speaker 1: McKinnon injury is definitely number one. UH trade. Khalil Mack.
Speaker 1: Listen Khalil Mack and the Oakland Raiders were going to
Speaker 1: stare down. So it happened, right, Um, Khalil Mack gets
Speaker 1: traded to the Bears. It was Khalil Mack and the
Speaker 1: second round pick for two first round picks back from
Speaker 1: Chicago in two thousand nineteen and two thousand twenty. Right,
Speaker 1: But then the Bears turn around and pay that man
Speaker 1: six years, a hundred and forty one million dollars, ninety
Speaker 1: of which is guaranteed for Khalil Mack and his family. Okay,
Speaker 1: he becomes the rich just defensive player in NFL history.
Speaker 1: It is the biggest contract in NFL history for a
Speaker 1: defensive players, six years, one hundred and forty one million dollars. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're talking about twenty two plus per Alright, so we
Speaker 1: like that, Um, but I don't know what the Raiders
Speaker 1: are doing. They trade Khalil Mack, making their roster on
Speaker 1: defense very pedestrian. They traded away Martevis Bryant because there
Speaker 1: was the cloud no pun intended around Martevis blind about
Speaker 1: the suspension. He now has an indefinite suspension. This is
Speaker 1: his second indefinite suspension and what has been a four
Speaker 1: year career. So they traded a third round draft pick
Speaker 1: to get Martevis Bryant and now are casting him aside
Speaker 1: before he ever plays it down for the team. They
Speaker 1: are trading away their best player in Khalil Mack. They
Speaker 1: trade four Andy McCarron, I mean, excuse me, A J. McCarron,
Speaker 1: which should tell you all you need to know about
Speaker 1: the status of whatever backups they had, like Connor Cook
Speaker 1: or whatever it was. Right, So I teld you for
Speaker 1: a while that I am on the under for the
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders. I continue to be on the under for
Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders. I got it at nine because I
Speaker 1: was telling you guys about this months ago. Now I
Speaker 1: think it's down to eight. I still like the under
Speaker 1: on the Oakland Raiders. As I mentioned, Khalil Matt got
Speaker 1: the richest contract in NFL history for a defensive player.
Speaker 1: He's set the market that was set twenty four hours previously.
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald finally came to an agreement with the Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams. They agreed on a six year, one hundred
Speaker 1: and thirty five million dollar contract, eighties seven of which
Speaker 1: was guaranteed. Now, the Raiders, I don't know what they're
Speaker 1: doing right in Oakland, but the Rams, I know what
Speaker 1: they're doing. They are shoving all their chips to the
Speaker 1: middle of the table. They know that when Jared Goff
Speaker 1: toy have Goff on his rookie deal, right And We've
Speaker 1: said this before on the Fantasy Freestyle. I've said this
Speaker 1: before as the stable genius and vocal minority on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Network, I have said that your window of
Speaker 1: opera tunity when you have a good quarterback on their
Speaker 1: rookie contract is right then and there. They know they're
Speaker 1: gonna have to pay the piper eventually as it relates
Speaker 1: to golf. So they are going all in right now.
Speaker 1: They get Aaron Donald this year they had and Dominican sue.
Speaker 1: They got on a fourteen year, fourteen million dollar deal.
Speaker 1: They acquire a keep to leave. They acquire Marcus Peters,
Speaker 1: they acquire Sam Shields for that defense right. They acquire
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks and sign them to a five year eighty
Speaker 1: million dollar deal. They extend Todd Gurley to a four
Speaker 1: year sixty million dollar deal. They extend their offensive lineman,
Speaker 1: Rob Havnstein to a four year, thirty two million dollar deal.
Speaker 1: They are making it rain in the City of Angels,
Speaker 1: and they're only gonna be able to do so for
Speaker 1: a couple more years, because then they're gonna have to
Speaker 1: pay Jared Goff. This team's window is right now, and
Speaker 1: I believe they're gonna do something with it. When I
Speaker 1: give you my predictions for the NFC Championship Game, the
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams may be involved. Okay, so listen. Going
Speaker 1: into this, we knew about Khalil Mack. We knew about
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald. There are still two name guys that have
Speaker 1: not come into the building. The first is Earl Thomas
Speaker 1: in Seattle. They're playing a game of chicken that I
Speaker 1: don't think has an end in sight. I talked about
Speaker 1: this from a man Scott Angle, the King Scotty Angle,
Speaker 1: And by the way, happy birthday to my man the
Speaker 1: King elre de fanta f s w A Hall of Famers,
Speaker 1: Scott Angle. You need to go on right now. If
Speaker 1: you haven't yet, you need to go over the road
Speaker 1: of Experts dot com and get the Exclusive Edge Fantasy
Speaker 1: Football package. It gives you the great rankings, the great content,
Speaker 1: everything you need to win your league and win that cash.
Speaker 1: But shout out to my man Scott Angle birthday boy.
Speaker 1: I hope he's doing big things right now. Um. But
Speaker 1: I asked him about Arl Thomas and he's saying, you know,
Speaker 1: to stare down right now as well. Listen, he sold
Speaker 1: this house in Seattle. He don't want to be there,
Speaker 1: all right. He's been talking about wanting to go down
Speaker 1: to Texas and Dallas for a while now. But here's
Speaker 1: the thing. The Seahawks have him blinked either. So the
Speaker 1: question is does he want to start risking his game
Speaker 1: checks Arl Thomas? That is, you know, money can be
Speaker 1: a great motivator. What is he gonna do lose a
Speaker 1: quarter of a million dollars at his family I'm sure
Speaker 1: has had earmarked, or is he gonna show up with
Speaker 1: his hat in his hand? Or what happens if he
Speaker 1: does take this principaled approach after week one? Does that
Speaker 1: make the Seahawks then like, man, his dude might be serious?
Speaker 1: And do they budge? I think this standoff between Earl
Speaker 1: Thomas and the Seahawks goes beyond this weekend, and then
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get traded, So keep an eye
Speaker 1: out on that. The other name is Levan Bell, So
Speaker 1: let's talk about this as it relates to Levyan Bell.
Speaker 1: I think he's coming in tomorrow. The question is what
Speaker 1: does that mean for Week one? Listen, if you drafted
Speaker 1: him in your top three in season long leagues, I
Speaker 1: agree with Clayton Trey hand who's on the pole? You
Speaker 1: start Levan Bell? Okay, but DFS, I ain't starting him
Speaker 1: this week, all right? If I have other options, I'm
Speaker 1: looking at that. Look I talked about this on and
Speaker 1: this morning. It's completely viable that you have, oh, I
Speaker 1: don't know, Levian Bell as your number one running back.
Speaker 1: It's viable then that you got Joe Mixon as r
Speaker 1: R B two, let's say. And then in that scenario,
Speaker 1: it's also viable that you have, say, like maybe a
Speaker 1: Dion Lewis as a flex back. I'm telling you right
Speaker 1: now in PPR formats, if I'm faced with that conversation,
Speaker 1: I am starting Dion Lewis over Levian Bell this week.
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. I'm still drafting Levan Bell in
Speaker 1: the top three tonight because I think it's gonna be
Speaker 1: fine season long. Don't get me wrong, He's still the
Speaker 1: back to own. I love lev Bell, but if you
Speaker 1: have another starting running back option, I'd put him in
Speaker 1: for leve just for a week one and Here's why
Speaker 1: I think James Connor is gonna get some burn this
Speaker 1: Sunday against Cleveland. Regardless of if you love Bell walks
Speaker 1: in tomorrow or not, I think we're getting about sevent
Speaker 1: of Levian Bell. He's a finely tuned athlete. He knows
Speaker 1: the scheme in the system. He will be fine. What
Speaker 1: I'm worried about is like Mike Tomlin benching him for
Speaker 1: the first two series as a little slap on the wrist,
Speaker 1: I'm worried about maybe Connor getting in there in a
Speaker 1: bigger rotation. I could be completely wrong and let Bell
Speaker 1: could go for one three and two touchdowns and seven catches,
Speaker 1: just as like in FU mode. That's very viable, that's
Speaker 1: very possible. I think what's more likely to happen is
Speaker 1: that he will be weaned in that the Steelers backs
Speaker 1: will be more of a time share four week one
Speaker 1: than we've ever seen. That's not stopping me from drafting
Speaker 1: him number whatever you were going to anyway. If he's
Speaker 1: there for you at three, I'm taking him. He's there
Speaker 1: for you at two. In PPR settings, I'm taking them.
Speaker 1: Use my number one overall back. Going into the drafts anyway,
Speaker 1: still is especially in PPR format. But for week one,
Speaker 1: I can see a bigger time share than we may
Speaker 1: have thought. Other things that caught my eye over the
Speaker 1: weekend Evan Ingram back at practice. He's gonna be fine.
Speaker 1: Remember he was in the concussion protocol. He's gonna be fine.
Speaker 1: You can start him with confidence. Okay. Week one they
Speaker 1: play the Jaguars, right, so their wide receivers are gonna
Speaker 1: be back with the jackson five right. And cat scratch fever.
Speaker 1: If you're part of the stats overbeat Cipher, if you're
Speaker 1: part of the best Friends Forever, you remember the cat
Speaker 1: scratch fever from Jacksonville last year. So that might be O'Dell,
Speaker 1: that might be Sterling Shepherd, but it might be Ingram,
Speaker 1: you know, in the middle of the field, so that
Speaker 1: might be viable. Um. The other tight end news I
Speaker 1: wanted to mention is as it relates to the Chargers. Right. So,
Speaker 1: in an intriguing move over the weekend, Uh, they put
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry on pop not I R Okay, So that
Speaker 1: means that there's a chance that Hunter Henry returns what
Speaker 1: in December or in the playoffs or a playoff roster
Speaker 1: kind of thing. And then what do they do UH
Speaker 1: late over the weekend or maybe even on Labor Day,
Speaker 1: they go ahead and sign Antonio Gates to a one
Speaker 1: year deal. Okay, a lot of people said that this
Speaker 1: was going to happen. No, Antonio Gates does not need
Speaker 1: the preseason. He knows everything he needs to know about
Speaker 1: the scheme. He knows everything he needs to know about
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, and I think he's gonna be viable in
Speaker 1: the red zone. I think he's gonna be viable on
Speaker 1: third down when Philip Rivers wants his security blanket. I
Speaker 1: have been hyping up Mike Williams as a Charger's wide
Speaker 1: receiver for the better part of a month or two months.
Speaker 1: I still like Mike Williams to take a step forward
Speaker 1: this year as a second year wide receiver who's, you know,
Speaker 1: recovering from his injuries and looks healthy. I still like
Speaker 1: Mike Williams. But I do have a little bit of
Speaker 1: cause for pause as it turns into that touchdown production,
Speaker 1: that red zone. UH targets those things I do think
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates will eat into a little bit. But I'm
Speaker 1: still comfortable with Mike Wallace as a UM as a
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Four. All Right, so maybe wide receiver, you
Speaker 1: know in the late forties, later down in drafts, when
Speaker 1: you're down in round ten or something like that. I'm okay,
Speaker 1: still with Mike Williams before we go to break. Also, Glad,
Speaker 1: I let you know the Bills have decided to start
Speaker 1: Nate Peterman at Baltimore. I'm telling you Josh Allen is
Speaker 1: still the answer for this team long term. They still
Speaker 1: see Josh Allen as they are long term franchise quarterback.
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to protect Josh Allen here. That
Speaker 1: offensive line is blunt, guts, trash in Buffalo, and I
Speaker 1: think they're worried about Nate Peterman. Excuse me about Josh
Speaker 1: Allen getting beat up. Early in the season. They played
Speaker 1: the Ravens with their pass rush, the Chargers with Boson
Speaker 1: Ingram coming after them, and then the Vikings with Hunter
Speaker 1: and Griffin and like Sheldon Richardson putting pressure on them.
Speaker 1: I think they're letting Nate Peterman in in essence to
Speaker 1: be the sacrificial lamb, throwing him to the Wolves so
Speaker 1: that Josh Allen gets it. When the schedule opens up
Speaker 1: a little bit and hopefully they get time to coach
Speaker 1: up that offensive line. That's where I'm at on the Bills,
Speaker 1: and I'm still running to the window to take the
Speaker 1: under on the Buffalo Bill season win total. Because guess what,
Speaker 1: zero people have bet the over. I literally checked on
Speaker 1: my bookie to kind of like statistics and analytics. They
Speaker 1: have zero people that have bet the over on the
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. That's why their juices at minus one the
Speaker 1: under and plus one seventy for the over. Get it
Speaker 1: now before it goes down if you want. When we
Speaker 1: come back, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: defensive diamonds and fool gazes. We're gonna talk initial waiver run,

Speaker 1: uh So Rospitel telling everybody to get down on the
Speaker 1: Patreon Dilly dilly to him and hit me up on
Speaker 1: the Patreon. Okay, subscribe to me. That's the only way
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be able to answer your questions all fantasy
Speaker 1: football season, all right, y'all bombard me with questions. You know,
Speaker 1: I try to do what I can for the cipher,
Speaker 1: but that is the way to go. I see some
Speaker 1: people hit me up with questions here in the chat room.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get that my man Danny Otto, who is
Speaker 1: back in the fantasy pit of misery. Dilly Dilly to him,
Speaker 1: Dilly Dilley to Sergio Rodriguez out there as well. I
Speaker 1: see your question wide receivers, Cooper, Crowder, Stills or Cup.
Speaker 1: You need two in a PPR. That is tough. Um,
Speaker 1: here's the thing for me, I like all four of
Speaker 1: these wide receivers. Sergio, I'm gonna tell you right now,
Speaker 1: Cooper is a definite. I've evolved on Amari Cooper. If
Speaker 1: you're part of the stats over beat Cipher, you know
Speaker 1: I was down on him. I thought he was blunt,
Speaker 1: guts trash last year, that he defecated the mattress. This year,
Speaker 1: I'm in on Cooper. No Michael Crabtree, and in the
Speaker 1: John Gruden offense, the number one wide receiver always does well,
Speaker 1: so Cooper is in it. For me. It gets real
Speaker 1: interesting with the other guys. It was Crowder, Stills or Cup,
Speaker 1: Cup as part of that herd. I'll be talking about
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Herds all the time, and I think Cup
Speaker 1: is part of the hurt. There's gonna be some weeks
Speaker 1: where he pops off. It's great to have him on
Speaker 1: your roster, but I would take these other guys. If
Speaker 1: you ask me two weeks ago, I would have said
Speaker 1: Jameson Crowder and then Kenny Stills. But with Davantae Parker
Speaker 1: still being out with that broken hand, Kenny Stills is
Speaker 1: the number one receiver for these Miami Dolphins, and I
Speaker 1: believe the Miami Dolphins game flow will dictate that they
Speaker 1: are going to be down. I'm bumping Kenny Stills up.
Speaker 1: I might take Stills even over a shot of Jamo
Speaker 1: and a shot at Jamison Crowder. I want to say, uh, listen,
Speaker 1: there's somebody yo. Mario Alani's big shout out to you
Speaker 1: out there on the chat room saying freestyle greater than
Speaker 1: Signed Frenzy, greater than signed BFFs Now. Listen, guys, I
Speaker 1: love the support my man Corey Parson, the Fantasy executive.
Speaker 1: He helps you get that bag. Also, my people Greg Sussman,
Speaker 1: Frank Standfell. They do what it is and then afterwards
Speaker 1: drinks around Greg. Right, So I love everybody here on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Sports Radio Network for sure, but I appreciate
Speaker 1: the love. Mario's also asked me real quick, Marvin Jones
Speaker 1: or Jarvis Landry. I'm with Jarvis Landry. I don't think
Speaker 1: Josh Gordon is gonna be right week one, Antonio Callaway
Speaker 1: is actually gonna start. I'm all over Jarvis Landry week
Speaker 1: one against Pittsburgh. That is my answer. My man, danielto
Speaker 1: is gonna be loading up more questions, will answer them
Speaker 1: throughout the show, and don't forget it. Always hit me
Speaker 1: up on Twitter at Spitting Speeds at Patreon as well.
Speaker 1: All right, here's what I want to do. I wanted
Speaker 1: to give you some waivers because a lot of leagues
Speaker 1: have you draft. Let's say you drafted in early August. Right,
Speaker 1: you have a waiver run that's happening right now. All right,
Speaker 1: so let me tell you some running backs, some wideouts,
Speaker 1: maybe a tight end as well. At running back. Listen,
Speaker 1: the answers are fairly obvious. Right, Adrian Peterson was not
Speaker 1: in the player universe when you might have drafted he
Speaker 1: now is. He is now the starting running back for
Speaker 1: the Washington football team. He's a name to note. Alfred Morris,
Speaker 1: who I just said is the starting running back for
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners. He needs to be in
Speaker 1: your queue other guys that like, we talked about James
Speaker 1: Connor as well. But I'm telling you right now, do
Speaker 1: not blow your budget on James Connor. I see people
Speaker 1: in the chat room beyond like I drafted Levian Bell.
Speaker 1: That was a mistake. No, it wasn't. All you're gonna
Speaker 1: get is maybe less than you know, amazing leve Bell
Speaker 1: for week one and then he's gonna be just fine.
Speaker 1: Levian Bell is not losing you your league. Okay. If
Speaker 1: you're a Avian Bell owner, then you need James Connor, yes, okay,
Speaker 1: But otherwise it's all good. I don't think. I think
Speaker 1: Connor is a one week kind of thing, unless, of course,
Speaker 1: there's some kind of injury knock on. Would two other
Speaker 1: names that I liked though, I like Jordan Wilkins. I
Speaker 1: like Jordan Wilkins. The Marlin maccamstring injury is lingering. That's
Speaker 1: a problem. Turbin is out on suspension for four games.
Speaker 1: This kid, Jordan Wilkins, I think is gonna have a
Speaker 1: chance to not only start on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals,
Speaker 1: I think he's got a chance to grab the brass
Speaker 1: spring and be one of these rookies who came off
Speaker 1: the beaten path who this year are not you know,
Speaker 1: the names you know are not Royce Freeman, not sa
Speaker 1: Kwan Barkley, not you know, Rashad Penny. Wilkins is a
Speaker 1: guy who I think has a chance to come off
Speaker 1: the radar and be a rookie running back who actually
Speaker 1: helps your team this year. I like Jordan Wilkinson. Here's
Speaker 1: the last name I'll give you as a running back.
Speaker 1: He's available in something like of leagues, or excuse me,
Speaker 1: he's available in fifty percent of leagues, and it's James White.
Speaker 1: I like James White a lot in PPR formats, especially
Speaker 1: early in the season. Let me tell you why Rex
Speaker 1: Burkhead is dealing with a slight tear in his knee.
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle, the rookie who they drafted, who I do
Speaker 1: believe is gonna be that dude for the Patriots eventually,
Speaker 1: more than like the whack a mole that the Patriots
Speaker 1: have had in years past. In fact, that's later in
Speaker 1: the season. Julian Edelman still out on suspension for the
Speaker 1: first four games. I think James White can catch seven
Speaker 1: balls on Sunday against the Texans, Okay. I think James
Speaker 1: White could be the comfortable person that Brady knows quickly
Speaker 1: out of the backfield, along with Hogan and of course Gronk. Right,
Speaker 1: So I like James White. He's like the only healthy
Speaker 1: running back for New England. He's familiar. There are games
Speaker 1: where he catches six, seven, eight balls. I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: surprised if Sunday is one of them. Okay. So for me,
Speaker 1: I like James White, I like Alfred Morris better than
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson, and I like Jordan Wilkins. I would let
Speaker 1: someone else go get Adrian Peterson unless you're a left
Speaker 1: bell owner. I would let someone else get James Connor
Speaker 1: at wide receiver. Some things that have happened since maybe
Speaker 1: you drafted in early August and you haven't had a
Speaker 1: chance on the waiver run right. The first thing the
Speaker 1: name I'm gonna give you Geronimo. I'm talking about Geronimo
Speaker 1: Allison on the Green Bay Packers. I like this a lot.
Speaker 1: Randall Cobb is the number two ride receiver supposedly. I
Speaker 1: believe Geronimo Allison is gonna be the number two why
Speaker 1: receiver for Aaron Rodgers and that Green Bay Packers offense.
Speaker 1: If you can get Geronimo Allison and he's on your
Speaker 1: waiver wire, you need to do that right now. Okay, Listen,
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of buzz over the last week
Speaker 1: or two that ramble Cop is on the trading block.
Speaker 1: Why do you think the Packers might be comfortable moving
Speaker 1: ramble Cop. It's because they believe Geronimo Allison and what
Speaker 1: I believe is his third year make it take a
Speaker 1: step forward, Okay. And I believe those rookie wide receivers
Speaker 1: they think can fill the third wide receiver role. And
Speaker 1: I think Allison, Geronimo Allison, is someone primed to take
Speaker 1: a step forward. And with this ramble Cop buzz, that
Speaker 1: might have been someone who's you know, on the waiver
Speaker 1: wire for you in your league. Remember, also, Marquis Lee
Speaker 1: has gone down with the a c L injury since
Speaker 1: maybe early in August or even the middle of August.
Speaker 1: Those drafts, right, and so if you drafted and say
Speaker 1: the first or second weekend of August, and then you
Speaker 1: had a waiver run and the waivers have been locked.
Speaker 1: Now markis Lee is eviscerated this one. I'm a little
Speaker 1: cautious with. Okay. I personally think that the guy who
Speaker 1: stands to benefit the most personally is Dante Moncrief. I
Speaker 1: think it's Yaman Yaman grief Um. I think he stands
Speaker 1: to benefit more than d D. Westbrook, more than Keelan
Speaker 1: Cole okay Um. But here's the thing. The question is
Speaker 1: how much do you want to invest in the Jaguars
Speaker 1: passing game anyway? And for me, it's not that much. Right.
Speaker 1: They want Blake Bortles to manage the game. Jacksonville wants
Speaker 1: to win games with Blake Bortles thrown on the ball
Speaker 1: like ten times. They want to win via Leonard four
Speaker 1: Nette and their defense. So I don't know how much
Speaker 1: of the Jags passing game I would take. You know
Speaker 1: what I would do is and he's still probably available.
Speaker 1: I do think it bumps up Austin Safarian, Jenkins, Laura Stafari,
Speaker 1: Kingli Selassie, I, you know, because maybe these wide receivers
Speaker 1: are down the field at all, but Blake goes to
Speaker 1: a safety blanket. I think Austin saffair. Ian Jenkins is
Speaker 1: very intriguing. And here's the other thing. Week one, those
Speaker 1: Jaguars have the New York Giants, you know, the team
Speaker 1: that is the worst in the NFL over the last
Speaker 1: couple of years at defending the tight end, the New
Speaker 1: York Giants. So I think he makes for an interesting
Speaker 1: DFS play, an interesting weekly play in your season longs
Speaker 1: as well. Give me Austin Sefarian Jenkins. So I give
Speaker 1: you Geronimo Allison if you want to take a stab
Speaker 1: on the Jacksonville wide receivers, I say that's okay. And
Speaker 1: then the other name I'll give you is John Ross
Speaker 1: on Cincinnati. He's proven to be healthy, He's proven to
Speaker 1: be that over the top guy for Cincinnati. You saw
Speaker 1: the fifty some odd yard touchdown in that preseason game.
Speaker 1: I like the Cincinnati Bengals a little bit more than
Speaker 1: I did a month ago. Their offensive line looks defense decent.
Speaker 1: They have a healthy Ross and a healthy Tyler Eifert.
Speaker 1: When are you gonna hear me say that? You know
Speaker 1: about a j Green And if Andy Dalton gets some time,
Speaker 1: he's looked decent al right. So I'm when we talk Thursday,
Speaker 1: and I give you a DFS lineup, I may, in
Speaker 1: fact do a cheap Bengals stack against the Indianapolis Colts
Speaker 1: past defense, one that we know has been eviscerated over
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. Right, so you give me
Speaker 1: verse the Indianapolis Colts in week one, you give me
Speaker 1: a better offensive line, maybe I'll take a low value
Speaker 1: stack right there, or a low price stack. We'll talk
Speaker 1: about that a little bit more. But John Ross is
Speaker 1: another wide receiver name to note of waivers that may
Speaker 1: have run and at tight end. Listen, I'm not on
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates. Um, I'm on more like like I said
Speaker 1: Austin Sfarian Jenkins, and then listen, people stay away from
Speaker 1: Tyle life because they don't think he's healthy. He's healthy
Speaker 1: right now. So you know, when he was healthy last
Speaker 1: for a full season, he had fourteen touchdowns and a
Speaker 1: Pro Bowler. He's a top five tight end when healthy.
Speaker 1: As of now, he's healthy. So those are guys that
Speaker 1: I kind of like what I want to get into. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, hit me up if you agree, if you disagree,
Speaker 1: we're gonna answer your questions that are coming up. My man,
Speaker 1: Danny Auto is hitting me up. We're gonna answer some
Speaker 1: of the sins that I'm getting from the stats overbeat
Speaker 1: cipher a little bit in uh, you know, in our
Speaker 1: last segments, So please please keep on hitting them out there.
Speaker 1: I see what you're doing. I'm gonna get after them
Speaker 1: in a minute. But the last thing I want to
Speaker 1: tell you is some defensive diamonds and gazes for the season.
Speaker 1: If you're still drafting, or maybe if you even if
Speaker 1: you're streaming, I'm gonna tell you right now, defenses have
Speaker 1: big time variants, okay, And that's the first thing I
Speaker 1: want to note. For example, Baltimore was the second ranked
Speaker 1: defense last year in Fantasy You know what, they had
Speaker 1: five defensive touchdowns to return touchdowns seven touchdowns. If that
Speaker 1: goes down this year, they fall to outside the top
Speaker 1: ten defense variants is in the touchdowns. The Detroit defense
Speaker 1: was the top five scoring defense last year. They had
Speaker 1: five defensive touchdowns to return touchdowns. That's seven. If they
Speaker 1: don't get that, they fall into bottom half defense. Alright,
Speaker 1: So watch the touchdowns, okay, because that can really inflate
Speaker 1: a defense. And that's flighty. You think you can rely
Speaker 1: on pick sixes from teams or fumble recoveries for touchdowns
Speaker 1: or return touchdowns. You're not gonna catch me doing that, Okay.
Speaker 1: So when you see teams like that that had a
Speaker 1: lot of defensive touchdowns last year, I say those are
Speaker 1: foss Detroit. I love the Baltimore defense. We all know
Speaker 1: that they are like prided on defense, but I don't
Speaker 1: know if they can replicate seven touchdowns and a block
Speaker 1: kick that they had last year. You know about Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: Right here are the teams that I like. I'll give
Speaker 1: you three and a half. Um, you gotta rely here
Speaker 1: on the pass rush and the secondary. I think teams
Speaker 1: that are weak at the linebacker level are okay, But
Speaker 1: the way you score fantasy defenses is getting sacks on
Speaker 1: the quarterback, pressure on the quarterback and turnovers. Okay, interceptions
Speaker 1: good secondaries. When I look at sacks, okay, yeah that
Speaker 1: was Jacksonville. Pittsburgh led the league in sacks. Okay, that's
Speaker 1: interesting to me. And they get a score a lot
Speaker 1: of points and they you know, they get up on
Speaker 1: teams and then they can release the hounds. Right. They
Speaker 1: also played the uh they play a couple of teams
Speaker 1: that are kind of the dregs of the a f C.
Speaker 1: So I like them a little bit um the Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams. They were fourth in the league in sacks
Speaker 1: last year, and they just added in Dominican Sue. They're
Speaker 1: gonna get pressure up the middle, straight up the middle,
Speaker 1: and they got ball hawking secondary guys a key to
Speaker 1: leave Marcus Peters. These are guys who gamble, right, so
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna get sacks. I think they're gonna
Speaker 1: get picks. I love the Rams defense, but you probably
Speaker 1: knew that one already. I love the Chargers defense, Ingram
Speaker 1: Emboza coming off the edges, Hayward as one cornerback, Berwin James,
Speaker 1: who was an Swiss Army knife who's gonna make some
Speaker 1: headlines this year as well. I like the Chargers. I
Speaker 1: like the Minnesota Vikings defense as well, a little bit
Speaker 1: lower in sacks. They only had thirty seven sacks, right,
Speaker 1: but I believe Griffin and Daniel Hunter a gonna bring
Speaker 1: it and they have a great secondary. So those are
Speaker 1: some guys some teams that I like there. And then
Speaker 1: when you think about kind of the turnovers. A team
Speaker 1: that's interesting for me as New Orleans. Last year they finished,
Speaker 1: as you know, kind of a top what eight defense
Speaker 1: and a lot of people are wondering if the variance
Speaker 1: is going to get them, and it might. Week one though,
Speaker 1: at home against Tampa and Ryan Fitzpatrick, I like that.
Speaker 1: Week two home against the Cleveland Browns, I like that
Speaker 1: as well. So those are some defenses that I like,
Speaker 1: whether it's in the draft or streaming. And I'm telling
Speaker 1: you I'm staying away from those defenses that uh, you know,
Speaker 1: scored a lot of touchdowns last year, because that is shady,
Speaker 1: that is flighty. There's a lot of variance on that
Speaker 1: from week to week. Again, thanks to everybody who's answering
Speaker 1: the poll question right now. Right now, most of you
Speaker 1: guys are thinking the sky is falling. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I need James Conner has of the vote. Of you
Speaker 1: are saying you are concerned, but he's still starting for me,
Speaker 1: and of you say absolutely everything will be fine. Big
Speaker 1: shout out to my man Benny Riccardi, the put up
Speaker 1: a gift of like fires all around him but saying
Speaker 1: he'll be fine. Mike blew Itt, my co host at
Speaker 1: eight am Monday to Friday on Fantasy Sports Today, is saying,
Speaker 1: as a Steeler fan, he is that exact gift. And
Speaker 1: Clayton Treyhan, big shout out to Clayton, friend of a pod,
Speaker 1: friend of the show, stats overbeat Cipher says, you play
Speaker 1: him in season long. I agree, But any bell owners
Speaker 1: need to grab Connor if they can. I agree if
Speaker 1: you're a bell owner yet, James Conner, if you can.
Speaker 1: If not, don't worry about it. Um and in dfs,
Speaker 1: don't touch them, you know, don't don't touch them. So
Speaker 1: I agree on that big shout out, of course to
Speaker 1: the stats overbeat Cipher. Here's what we're gonna do. All right,
Speaker 1: here's what we're gonna do a couple of things. I
Speaker 1: see Perry in real quick saying, Dilly Dilley, who should
Speaker 1: I drop to grab Wilkins? You got Tree Cohen, no,
Speaker 1: Geronimo Allison, no, Matt Breeder No. I agree with Peter
Speaker 1: Rand who says none of them, None of them. It's
Speaker 1: not to recon in a in a wait point per rush,
Speaker 1: in a point per rush league. That's a different setting
Speaker 1: to red. Cohen is probably a little bit down in that.
Speaker 1: It's still you know, those guys are good. I would
Speaker 1: ask you, Perry, do you have a second tight end
Speaker 1: that you can spare? Do you have a backup quarterback
Speaker 1: at replacement value. Okay, to go and maybe get a
Speaker 1: Jordan Wilkins, because these guys that you mentioned to read Cohen,
Speaker 1: Geronimo Allison, Matt Breeder, they need to stay on your roster.
Speaker 1: In my opinion, Michael Jackson is asking Detroit's defense or
Speaker 1: the Texans defense, why would I take the defense facing
Speaker 1: Tom Brady? That will not be the answer. Instead, I'll
Speaker 1: face the defense even though it's my man. I'll take
Speaker 1: the defense facing Sam Donald in his first start of
Speaker 1: his career on the road on Monday Night football. I'd
Speaker 1: rather ride with that as my opponent than Tom Brady
Speaker 1: in f you mode. All Right, so here we go,
Speaker 1: um right here, we're coming back after the break. Here's
Speaker 1: what we're gonna do. All Right, We're gonna load up
Speaker 1: these questions. I'm gonna talk to the stats over beat
Speaker 1: CIPH from a man Danny, Danny Otto, dilly dilly to him.
Speaker 1: We're gonna answer your questions. We're gonna find out how
Speaker 1: Danny's vacation went. Alright, his birthday weekend down there in
Speaker 1: a state that UH is legalizing things. So we'll talk
Speaker 1: about that, right and then what we're gonna do is
Speaker 1: UH I got an interesting story about DFS that I
Speaker 1: want to get to. All right, so what's your boy day?
Speaker 1: Martinez Speeds, the spitting statistician, the stable genius, the vocal minority.
Speaker 1: We're gonna come back up, Stats, over beat, Cipher, answer

Speaker 1: I love the Cipher. I told you to hit that
Speaker 1: like button. Literally, we've got like what triple the amount

Speaker 1: So big shout out to the stats over Beat Cipher.

Speaker 1: loves their viewers. Like the spitting statistician with the Stats
Speaker 1: Overbeat Cipher. Anybody who's in the chat room right now,
Speaker 1: we'll tell you that speeds is not lying on that.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much to the stats over beat cipher.
Speaker 1: So here's what we gotta do. I gotta help you
Speaker 1: all out, all right, So let's start right now. I
Speaker 1: got a couple of questions, and my man Danny Otto
Speaker 1: is telling me about so Fred Martinez. I like, how
Speaker 1: we're gonna lead with the Martinez. Okay, we're gonna lead
Speaker 1: with the Martinez. Umay okay, um? He traded mixing for
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen. Was that good? I mean maybe? Right. Here's
Speaker 1: the thing, especially when I see trades like this, Um,
Speaker 1: that's like a wide receiver for a running back or
Speaker 1: vice versa, It's hard for me to tell you unless
Speaker 1: I know the rest of the roster. Right. Do I
Speaker 1: think Keenan Allen overall is better than Joe Mixon this year? Yes, overall,
Speaker 1: I would have Keenan Allen ranked higher than Joe Mixon.
Speaker 1: But I don't know the rest of your wide outs,
Speaker 1: and I don't know the rest of your running backs.
Speaker 1: The way you gotta think about it is, this is
Speaker 1: the jump between your last starting wide receiver up to
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen. Let I don't know who your last starting
Speaker 1: wide receiver is and That's why I can't tell you.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's Robby Anderson, maybe it's Cooper Cup, maybe I
Speaker 1: don't know who it is. But is the jump from
Speaker 1: that person to Keenan Allen bigger then the drop from
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon to whoever you're putting in his place. That's
Speaker 1: what you gotta think about. And if that delta is
Speaker 1: greater than then yes, in that situation, it's a good trade.
Speaker 1: But that's what I always say to people. People hit
Speaker 1: me up on Twitter, people hit me up on Patreon,
Speaker 1: which is where the real status of beat Cipher gets
Speaker 1: their answers um, And I'm like, it depends on if
Speaker 1: you can handle the hit at running back, all right, Fred,
Speaker 1: So that's my issue with you trading mixing for Keenan Allen.
Speaker 1: It might be great, but if all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: now you've got no one to play at running back
Speaker 1: except mark Ingram, who you gotta wait four weeks for,
Speaker 1: then it's a problem. Okay, you gotta think about it comprehensively.
Speaker 1: Even if it's a one for one like that, you
Speaker 1: gotta think about it almost as a two for two,
Speaker 1: including who your bench person is and if that change
Speaker 1: is important. Uh, Perry ing is in here right now.
Speaker 1: Who's more valuable, Wilkins or Brida? That is an interesting question.
Speaker 1: I like Wilkins. I'm telling you guys, I like Wilkins.
Speaker 1: Brida is going to be in a time share in
Speaker 1: San Francisco and he's not gonna be the early down guy.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be the past catching guy, the PPR kind
Speaker 1: of guy. So if you're in a PPR league, sure,
Speaker 1: but I think Jordan Wilkins has the potential to be
Speaker 1: like the guy for Indianapolis. The safer bet is Matt Breeda.
Speaker 1: The swing risk kind of you know, uh kind of
Speaker 1: all risk, all reward is Jordan Wilkins. And I'm here
Speaker 1: telling you I like Jordan Wilkins as a guy that
Speaker 1: is down that you can get on waivers right now.
Speaker 1: Who has the potential to be a dude that in
Speaker 1: week seven, week eight, everyone's like, oh my god, Jordan Wilkins, Right.
Speaker 1: I think there's less potential for Matt Brida to ever
Speaker 1: get to that level, but he's the safer one. So
Speaker 1: it depends on the rest of your roster. Okay. So
Speaker 1: there's where it is, Perry. That's where I talked about
Speaker 1: the value and the value is rellative to the rest
Speaker 1: of your roster. Okay, Matt Breda, I think is you know,
Speaker 1: safer floor, especially in PPR formats. But Wilkins I think
Speaker 1: is the home run swing. I I think Wilkins is
Speaker 1: a home run swing here. Sergio Rodriguez said he needed
Speaker 1: to Cup. Is it Cooper, Crowder, Stills in Cup? I'm
Speaker 1: going out of these Amari Cooper and Kenny Stills, especially
Speaker 1: for week one. I want to see what Jamison Crowder
Speaker 1: has with Alex Smith. First. I know Stills is the
Speaker 1: number one there in Miami and there's hardly any other options. Uh.
Speaker 1: And Cup is in that fantasy herd, right, so Simon
Speaker 1: is out there. Chris Carson a p or Fuller and
Speaker 1: a half point PPR UM. Give me Chris Carson this week.
Speaker 1: Okay for week one, right now, give me Chris Carson.
Speaker 1: He is that lead dog until Penny takes the role.
Speaker 1: I don't believe in Adrian Peterson. I also think that
Speaker 1: Cardinals run defense will be Stout who he faces in
Speaker 1: week one. Um and Fuller, I don't know, I'm not
Speaker 1: I'm just down on Fuller. I'm not the guy. I'm
Speaker 1: lower on Fuller than most people in the industry are.
Speaker 1: I don't believe you can all of a sudden extrapolate
Speaker 1: out what he did with Deshaun Watson last year. Okay,
Speaker 1: if you did, then he's gonna get what nineteen touchdowns.
Speaker 1: That's not happening. Okay, So I'm a little bit lower
Speaker 1: on Fuller of these guys. Give me Chris Carson because
Speaker 1: I think he's the lead dog in Seattle. There, Freddie
Speaker 1: Martinez again, Crowder Watkins or carry on Johnson PPR and
Speaker 1: the flex. This is interesting because it's PPR. I would
Speaker 1: I would have Crowder and then maybe carry on Johnson
Speaker 1: Mcrowder is the answer for me. Crowder is a safe
Speaker 1: PPR kind of guy. He's a PPR kind of wide receiver.
Speaker 1: I think in PPR I like Crowder a little bit better. Um,
Speaker 1: but with Sergio, you know, I'm still taking Cooper or
Speaker 1: Stills over that. But I do like Crowder a lot.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm up for a shot at Jamo anytime.
Speaker 1: Give me some Jamison Crowder, that is, I do like him,
Speaker 1: especially in PPR formats. I think Crowder is a fine
Speaker 1: PPR flex option as long as he is healthy. Okay,
Speaker 1: check the updates on Jamison Crowder as a relate to
Speaker 1: the injuries. But if he's good to go and it's
Speaker 1: trending that way later on in the week, Crowder is
Speaker 1: the answer for that one. Adam Connolly is asking Breeder,
Speaker 1: Breeda or Lynch and a half point PPR. That is interesting.
Speaker 1: Give me beast mode though, I think beast mode is
Speaker 1: a legitimate back end r B two. I think Brieda
Speaker 1: is going to have to, you know, show something, get
Speaker 1: in the end zone, get a day where he has
Speaker 1: six catches, something like that. I think the stable play
Speaker 1: there is beast mode. Marshal On Lynch will take one
Speaker 1: more question right now, and it comes from Don Preston.
Speaker 1: Don Preston is asking me O J. Howard or Austin
Speaker 1: Safarian Jenkins. I'm taking the Rastafari King, Ali Selassie, I,
Speaker 1: Austin Safari and Jenkins rastafariy. I mentioned it before. The
Speaker 1: giants are um. You know they're they're dog ish against
Speaker 1: the tight end. They have been for years. And with
Speaker 1: Marquis Legan, I think he might be the guy who
Speaker 1: takes a bump. And O J. Howard, listen a couple
Speaker 1: of things. One Ryan Fitzpatrick not Jamis two and I
Speaker 1: know he had some good games with Fitzpatrick last year.
Speaker 1: Two he's splitting with Cameron Brad you know, and so
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? You started J Howard and
Speaker 1: then Cameron Breake catches a touchdown, Cameron Brake catches six balls.
Speaker 1: O J. Howard catches too. At least Austin Safari and
Speaker 1: Jenkins as the Rostafari is the only guy there at
Speaker 1: the tight end position. So that's why I like that,
Speaker 1: Danny Otto, if we got a couple more questions, we
Speaker 1: can get them ready for the show. Dilly dilly to
Speaker 1: my man, Lance Davis Um Peter ron is asking John
Speaker 1: Ross or Anthony Miller. That is a very interesting question.
Speaker 1: In my opinion, I'm intrigued by Anthony Miller. I really
Speaker 1: really am. I like his skill set. But what do
Speaker 1: I always say here? I say it's skill set and opportunity,
Speaker 1: And you know what I say about the rookie Wade receivers.
Speaker 1: And in Chicago. Yeah, there's Anthony Miller, but there's also
Speaker 1: Alan Robinson. There's also Trey Burton. There's also Terriq Cohen.
Speaker 1: I think all three of them get more targets on
Speaker 1: an average Sunday than Anthony Miller, whereas John Ross I
Speaker 1: think is higher up in the pecking order for Cincinnati
Speaker 1: and is something of a boom or bust uh play.
Speaker 1: You're playing Howard and bright On flex is good, says
Speaker 1: Pete Martinez. Um, I don't know about playing both O. J.
Speaker 1: Howard and Cameron brad that's a little crazy to me.
Speaker 1: Hogan or Henry and the Flex. I like Chris Hogan
Speaker 1: this week. Listen. I like Chris Hogan a lot, especially
Speaker 1: when there's no Julian Edelman. He's gonna be a target
Speaker 1: monster Chris. So I'm getting Chris Hogan in my lineups
Speaker 1: as much as I possibly can. That is the Chris
Speaker 1: out there, dilly dilly to everybody. Strong Style thinks Alfred
Speaker 1: Morris is a fool gazzy. I don't know about that.
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. I think Alfred Morris is
Speaker 1: actually gonna listen. He's not exciting, right, He's not gonna
Speaker 1: break at night the yard run. But I think he's
Speaker 1: gonna be stable for you and offer a stable floor,
Speaker 1: and that maybe what you need. Okay, um, So that's
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, yo, Listen. Here's the other question I
Speaker 1: got for you. Here's the other thing I want to say.
Speaker 1: Over on Rhodo Experts in the morning, the King Scott
Speaker 1: Angle and you know yours truly has been statistician. We've
Speaker 1: been doing a team name contest where everybody submits their
Speaker 1: best team name. And I am proud to announce he
Speaker 1: may know this already, but the winner of our contest,
Speaker 1: we put it up on Twitter and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Someone in the chat room with the status of beat
Speaker 1: stepher and it's my guy, the Strong Style Ninja. So
Speaker 1: here's what we gotta do. Strong Style. We're gonna get
Speaker 1: you a free exclusive Edge fantasy football package as your winnings.
Speaker 1: And also the King Scott Angle is going to call

Speaker 1: million dollars. Matt Nagy coming over from Kansas City implementing
Speaker 1: that system. Travis Kelsey did fine in that system and
Speaker 1: with every Ingram. Here's my beef with Ingram. He popped
Speaker 1: off last year when there was no Old Bell Beckham,
Speaker 1: when Sterling Shepard was out for some of those weeks.
Speaker 1: This year, Oh Oldell Beckham is there, Oh se Kawan
Speaker 1: Barkley is there. I think his slice of the pie
Speaker 1: gets a little bit slower, were smaller. Alright, Michael Perez,
Speaker 1: So I like Trey Burton a little bit over, you
Speaker 1: know over Evan Ingram um earn his delva. That's what's up,
Speaker 1: Lance Davis, That's what's up. Thanks everybody for smashing that.
