1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:12,559
Speaker 1: Wow, what is up? Welcome to another edition of the

2
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Football Show. It's me your man, MG Marcus Grant,

3
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 1: still fully vaccinated, still dodging variants like Neo in the matrix,

4
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: as always, joined by producer Justin and the specialist cast

5
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 1: of dozens that help us put on this show. And

6
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: joined on screen here as always by my pal Michael

7
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: f Florio And uh, I guess it was sort of

8
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:32,919
Speaker 1: a mixed week for you, Like a lot of your

9
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: calls went right, but your your football team went sideways.

10
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: So I don't know, how are you feeling on this

11
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 1: Monday for for fantasy purposes? I'm feeling really good. Uh.

12
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: It was a fun week, one of the more fun

13
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: weeks I've had this season. But yeah, man, the Bills

14
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 1: just can't seem to get out of their way. Uh.

15
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: I still believe in them, but man, I thought they

16
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: were going to be a powerhouse this year, and they've

17
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: been anything but well now here they wake up on

18
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: Monday morning and they're staring up at the Patriots. It's

19
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 1: like it's like groundhog Day again. Right. I hate this

20
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: so much. I would rather be the Jets, or or

21
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, or any team ahead of the Bill, it's

22
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 1: the Patriots. This this feels like the last two decades

23
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: of my life. I mean really, it just it never

24
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: seems to end. It's like the Patriots took a sabbatical

25
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: and now they're back again. Um, if it makes you

26
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: feel any better, I think most of the football watching

27
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: nations sort of feels like the Bills too, Like, really,

28
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: we're doing this again? Uh whatever? Uh, big show for you,

29
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: as we always have on this Monday. A few of

30
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: the things we will touch on is Justin Jefferson, a

31
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: first round pick in your twenty two drafts. We're taking

32
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: some of your trade the limits because the trade deadline

33
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: is coming this week, and a lot of NFL dot

34
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: Com leagues, And as always, we will have a Monday

35
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: Night preview for you tonight. It is the Giants heading

36
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: down to Tampa to take on the Buccaneers. But let's

37
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: get started, as we always do, with some fantasy headlines.

38
00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: It will start with the Chicago quarterbacking situation. Justin Fields

39
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: left Sunday's game against the Ravens with a rib injury.

40
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: Now right now they are saying it looks like bruised ribs.

41
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: I don't believe there's anything broken. At least those are

42
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: the early reports. But there are some questions as to

43
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 1: whether he is going to be good to go for

44
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,399
Speaker 1: the Bears game on Thursday against the Detroit Lions. That's

45
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,399
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving. So if it is indeed Andy Dalton going

46
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: against the Lions, I mean Floria, on paper, it is

47
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: a very good matchup. Would you dare start Andy Dalton

48
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: or at least at least put him in a DFS lineup.

49
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: I think he could be used in a DFS lineup,

50
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: especially if you're playing like a Showdown or something like

51
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: that on Thanksgiving. I think in seasonal leagues two quarterback formats,

52
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: for sure, you could get him in there. In one

53
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: quarterback leagues, I would only do it if you're desperate,

54
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: like maybe your waiver wire is really thin and you

55
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: need a Kyler or a Patrick Mahomes replacement. Maybe you've

56
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: been riding with justin fields. I don't know, if you're

57
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: going a little bit deeper, sure, but in a traditional

58
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: like ten or twelve team league, I I would stay

59
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: far away from him in a one quarterback format. All right,

60
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 1: So you mentioned the bye week, So with Kyler Murray

61
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: out and Patrick Mahomes out, this week. Uh, let's just

62
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: just hypothetical. Right. Let's say you've been rolling with Russell Wilson,

63
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: who has not been good the last couple of weeks.

64
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: I know he's a Monday night game. Would you pivot

65
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: to Andy Dalton over Russ? I can't, only because Russ

66
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: has a really good matchup in his own right too

67
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: against Washington. So I still think Russ. Uh. I'm hoping

68
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: maybe this, you know, extra week, extra day he gets

69
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: helps his finger a little bit. I don't know, Seattle

70
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: just looks off right now, But I would still play

71
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: Russ over field over Dalton. But man, that says a

72
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: lot about Russ that it's even a question, right. The

73
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: fact that we're even discussing this, uh, tells you kind

74
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: of where Russell Wilson is right now. Also, it's got

75
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: a side note on this. And I know Allen Robinson

76
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: didn't play on Sunday against Baltimore. We'll see what his

77
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: status is for Thursday. But and you've pointed this out,

78
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: A Rob's best games this year have come with Andy

79
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: Dalton at quarterback. Acts So if he is healthy and

80
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: ready to go, does that give you a little renewed faith?

81
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: Like I'm not expecting him to suddenly be the Allen

82
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: Robinson of past years, but would you maybe put him

83
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: in a flex spot if he can go this week?

84
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: I think so. Someone tweeted me this morning and said, like,

85
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: with it looking like it could be Dalton, is it

86
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: time to pick up Allen Robinson again? And I said yeah,

87
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: because also, if you remembered last week before he got injured,

88
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson looked his best with justin Fields. He had

89
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: that long, deep catch on the sideline on Monday Night

90
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 1: against That was two weeks ago. But he looks good

91
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: in that game, and it looked like we were starting

92
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: to think like the Bears and Fields were figuring it out.

93
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,119
Speaker 1: So while I did drop Allen Robinson in a couple

94
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: of leagues already this year, if he's out there on

95
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,159
Speaker 1: the waiver wire, I would be picking him up again

96
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: this week. Man. You know, what is old is new again.

97
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 1: So we'll see what we'll see if he comes back

98
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: into our fantasy lives. Uh, possibly leaving our fantasy lives

99
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: at least for the short term. But we know for

100
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: sure Maari Cooper is going to be out. He missed

101
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: yesterday's game against Kansas City after placed on the COVID

102
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 1: nineteen reserve list. He will not be available for the

103
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving Day game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Now added

104
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: concerns though for the Cowboys because Ceedee Lamb left Sunday's

105
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 1: game with a concussion, so we will monitor him, but

106
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: there's a good chance that he may not be able

107
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: to get through the protocol in time to play on Thursday.

108
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: So kind of a simple question, does this make Michael

109
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: Gallup a must start against Vegas? Yeah? I think so. Uh,

110
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, I I you know, he's one of my

111
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: favorite receivers in the league. Thanksgiving would have been more

112
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: fun with him, But four days is such a quick turnaround.

113
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: I'm not expecting to see him out there, and that

114
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: means Michael Gallup by default is the Cowboys wide receiver one.

115
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: And I know he didn't have a great game against

116
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. Five catches forty four yards pretty

117
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: safe floor of around nine fantasy points, but he did

118
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: have ten targets. We saw them take some downfield shots

119
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 1: with Gallup. We saw them take a end zone shot

120
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: with him. He drew a past interference in the end

121
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: zone two So while he didn't do a whole that

122
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: comes out on the box score and gives you fantasy points.

123
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 1: The usage was exactly what we want to see from

124
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: Michael Gallups. So I have him in a couple of

125
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 1: leagues markets and I already know I'm gonna start him

126
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 1: everywhere I have him. I probably am going to be

127
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: starting him in some spots too. I mean, yesterday, it

128
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: was just kind of a mess for the Cowboys offensively.

129
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: They couldn't figure it out, scored just nine points in

130
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: the loss to Kansas City. Credited the Chiefs defense though,

131
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: because they've actually been playing better over the last few weeks.

132
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: And I know we're gonna get to waiver wire a

133
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: little bit later, and I have a sneaking feeling that

134
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 1: will be at least one other Cowboy receiver's name who

135
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: pops up on your list of waiver wire options heading

136
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: into week twelve. UM, I guess news in a positive way.

137
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: Here a couple of running backs just had monster games

138
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: on Sunday, and a couple of guys who are favorites

139
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: of Florio. Here one Jonathan Taylor. The huge day over

140
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: two hundred total scrimmag yards five touchdowns on five touchdowns

141
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: for Jonathan Taylor, he got you five d plus fantasy points,

142
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: thirteen player in NFL history with a five touchdown game,

143
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: but then, uh, not to be out done Austin Ekeler

144
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: in Sunday Night Football cheat the Chargers rather have to

145
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: rally and hang on to beat the Steelers. Austin Ekeler

146
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: with four touchdowns too rushing to receiving. The yardage just

147
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: over a hundred scrimmage yards for him in that one.

148
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really know what to say about

149
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: it other than if you have one of these guys,

150
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: you seem like you're on a pretty good path to

151
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: victory this week. Yeah. I I tweeted it out yesterday

152
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: like who had both of these players? And there was

153
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: people out there who had both. There was one person

154
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: I felt so bad for. They had both of these

155
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: players and we're still losing. I don't know how that

156
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: is possible. They combined for ninety five fantasy points, Marcus,

157
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: and I know Jonathan Taylor did it against my Bills,

158
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: but I was still very much so enjoying it. And

159
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: then last night when Alston Eckler was doing it, that

160
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: one was even a little sweeter for me because the

161
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: thing is, for two years now, people have been saying

162
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: Austin Ekeler cannot be a goal on runner, and I

163
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: kept saying, there's a difference between can't do it and

164
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: not being x to do it, And I think that

165
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: that that is what we're kind of seeing. Eckler proved

166
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: this year that like he can do it. They call

167
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: him pound for pound for a reason. So these two

168
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: guys top two RBS on the week and on the

169
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: year right now. I mean Austin Actor one of the

170
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: strongest players in the NFL, which is where that nickname

171
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: comes from. He's been great, uh, you know, especially with

172
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: it after he's gotten healthy again. Jonathan Taylor is just incredible.

173
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: We'll talk some more about him a little bit later.

174
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: But by the way, the Colts are doing their part

175
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 1: to try to get us to watch in season Hard Knocks.

176
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 1: I mean I haven't yet. You know, it's it's on

177
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: the list of things. Um, but you know, they they

178
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,079
Speaker 1: they uh you know, they won what three in a row?

179
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: Now they won what five of their last six? Uh?

180
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: Now you get Jonathan Taylor with the huge game. So

181
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, have you watched have you watched the

182
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: in season Hard Knocks yet? Not yet? I will watch

183
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 1: it tonight. Tuesday, Like Monday night is the night after

184
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: the game that I have some ability to watch some TVs.

185
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: So probably each week I'll watch Hard Knocks on Monday night,

186
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 1: be a little bit late, but I'm already guessing. I

187
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: haven't seen a single minute of it, but I'm gonna guess.

188
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 1: To take away from this in season Hard Knocks is

189
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: that Jonathan Taylor comes away as like a huge star,

190
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: and I think Michael Pittman Jr. Might as well. He

191
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: probably will too, And then you know, we'll have some

192
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz storylines in there somewhere too. The baby. He

193
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: said he just had a child, So did he have

194
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: his kid? Yes, I believe he's a girl dad um

195
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: and regrats to the Wentzon So congrats to to Carson

196
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: Wentz and his wife there. Best of luck, I guess

197
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: is the second child, so they kind of know they've

198
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 1: been down this road before. So welcome back, I guess,

199
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: welcome back to team mostly enjoy it all right. Time

200
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: for things we learned, or we talk about some of

201
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: the things we took away from what we saw during

202
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: the week. For you, what is top of mind right now?

203
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: I think Brandon Aiyuk is back, Marcus, And I know

204
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk is someone that you loved coming into the year,

205
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 1: and early on, I mean we were baffled. We were like,

206
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 1: this makes no sense. We saw this guy play as

207
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: a wide receiver one last year. Why are they getting

208
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,959
Speaker 1: away from him? Well, the last month, they really haven't

209
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 1: seven or more targets in three of the last four games.

210
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: Yesterday he led them in targets, catches, receiving yards. He

211
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: scored a receiving touchdown. He now has double digit Fantasy

212
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: points in three of the last four games and over

213
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: eighteen and two of his last three. So well, I

214
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: know it was a little rocky early on Brandon Ayouk.

215
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: And he is still out there in a cup in

216
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 1: A good amount of NFL dot com leagues. Grab him

217
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: if he is still out there, because I think he

218
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: could have a big second half of his season like

219
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: last year, especially since they're using Deebo Samuel more and

220
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: more as a running back, leading to more routes or

221
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: more plays where Ayuk is the default wide receiver one. Yeah,

222
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if it's that he finally

223
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:48,839
Speaker 1: worked his way out of the doghouse. I don't know

224
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: if it's at the Niners just needed to find other

225
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: options to throw the football too. Whatever it is, he's back,

226
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: and you talk about him being available. I think it's

227
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: because he was so bad for such so much of

228
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: the season that a lot of people gave up on him.

229
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: And as teams have fallen out of contention in fantasy, Uh,

230
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: the rush to add him off the waiver wire has lessoned.

231
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: But he's out there, and he was playing some really

232
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: good football. I'm gonna go the other way and I'm

233
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: gonna go back to Thursday night. But it's over for

234
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: Mike Davis. I mean, that's that's it. This was the

235
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: week that I wanted to see something. And I didn't

236
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 1: even need Mike Davis to have a huge game. I

237
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: just wanted him to show signs of life. Cordarrell Patterson

238
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: was out. Uh. It looked like he had the opportunity

239
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: to be the number one running back and that was

240
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: not the case. In fact, not only was he not

241
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: the number one running back, I'm not even sure he

242
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: was their number two running back in Atlanta. I mean

243
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: he had fewer carries than Quadri Allison, he had fewer

244
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: rushing yards than Keith Smith. He a few rushing yards

245
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 1: and Keith Smith. Keith Smith had eight rushing yards. Mike

246
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: Davis had three carries for one yard. Uh. He had

247
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 1: four targets. He had caught three of them for twenty yards.

248
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: But it's it's officially done now for him. There's no

249
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: reason to hold on to him on your rosters. If

250
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: if in what was a tailor made situation for him

251
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: to get a lot of work, he still was struggling

252
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: to get any opportunities. I don't think there's any justification.

253
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: I don't care how many teams your league is. Uh,

254
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: there's just no reason to have Mike Davis at this point.

255
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: It's done. It's a rap. We heard two weeks ago

256
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: that they were using Wayne Gallman because it was a

257
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 1: blowout and they wanted to save Mike Davis for the

258
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: short week, only for them to call up Quadrealison off

259
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: the practice squad and use him. Uh. And it's time

260
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: to pour one out Mike Davis figuratively because I don't

261
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: want to actually wed all my life smart so so

262
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 1: yeah that you know, it's been frustrating for him, it's

263
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: been frustrating for us, And now I think it's time

264
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: for us to safely say goodbye. We're gonna saying goodbye.

265
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna do that, at least temporarily. Time for a break.

266
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: Coming up is the race to be the top overall

267
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: pick in twenty two. Already over discaus that next on

268
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy Football Show, taking a look at some

269
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 1: of the top performers for Week eleven. Obviously still one

270
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: more game to go, but Jalen Hurts your QUB three

271
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 1: with thirty point seven eight fantasy points. Cam Newton uh

272
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: made his return to Bank of America Stadium down in Charlotte,

273
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: put up twenties six points. That was good for QB four.

274
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor, we talked about his huge day fifty three

275
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: point four points. He was the RB one RB too.

276
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: Austin Ekeler with forty one and a half, Davante Freeman

277
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: a top ten running back with twenty points. Justin Jefferson,

278
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: you're top scoring wide receiver at thirty seven point to

279
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: Allied ja More your wide receiver three with just under

280
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: thirty points. Darnell Mooney your wide or seven four at

281
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 1: twenty three point one. Talk about Brandon i u k

282
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: got twenty one and a half points. That was good

283
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: for wide receiver eighth and zach Ertz. You're tied in one,

284
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: just nearly twenty nine fantasy points for him. But let's

285
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: talk about Jonathan Taylor a little bit more, because why

286
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: wouldn't we after what he did on Sunday? Uh. Right now,

287
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: he is your top scoring running back, you know, in

288
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 1: part because Derrick Henry unfortunately is out for the rest

289
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: of the year. But let's spend this ahead to two.

290
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: Has he locked up being the number one overall pick

291
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: for next season. I think he's done as much as

292
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: you can to lock it up without I I don't

293
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: know if anyone right now could lock it up because

294
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: people are always gonna have, you know, different opinions. But I,

295
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: for me, at least he has like he's young, He's

296
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: shown us that he is awesome, he's getting better as

297
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: a pass catcher, He's got a great old line around him,

298
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: other young playmakers in this offense. So I don't see

299
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: what the negative is for Jonathan Taylor right now where

300
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: I can see the negative for other pieces. But I

301
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: do think you'll hear a case for Derrick Henry. I

302
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: think you'll hear a case for Christian McCaffrey, who I

303
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: still might make the cases maybe not the RB one,

304
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 1: but the safest bet to get twenty five fantasy points

305
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: every week. Um. So I think they'll be cases to

306
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: be made for other running backs, but for me, he

307
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: has locked up the RB one spot heading into next season. Yeah,

308
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: I think the only other player that I can make

309
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: a legitimate case for right now is probably Derrick Henry. Um.

310
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 1: You know, I think as much as I think Christian

311
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: McCaffrey is such a solid option, the last two seasons,

312
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: with these lingering, nagging injuries has me a little bit

313
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: nervous saying could be said for sake, Kawon Barkley, Dalvin

314
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: Cook has been hurt at times this year has sort

315
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: of underperformed. So for me, it's it's right now a

316
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: race between Jonathan Taylor and Derrick Henry. Uh. The good

317
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: news is we're gonna we're gonna argue about this all

318
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: off season long. So uh, if you're sick of this

319
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 1: argument already, good luck to you, because it's not going

320
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: anywhere anytime soon. Uh. Plus, you know, look, we still

321
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: have a few more weeks too, right, Jonathan Taylor still

322
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: has some more time to kind of you put his

323
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: stamp on this thing. Uh, And we'll see how it

324
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: ends up when when the season is all said and done. Uh,

325
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson another big game for him continuing to have

326
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: what is a very great season. He right now is

327
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: your wide receiver five. But with what he is doing,

328
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: uh and and how great he has been consistently, are

329
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: we gonna be talking about him as a first round

330
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: pick next year? I don't think so. I think he'll

331
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: be an early second round pick because the first round

332
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: is just littered with so many running backs like that

333
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: it are we gonna see multiple receivers. And even if

334
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: we do, like I think Cooper Cup and I'll even

335
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: make the I think Tyreek Hill, like they deserve to

336
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: be the top two wide receivers. There's the top two

337
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: on the year. Uh. They've been pretty consistent in their careers,

338
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: so especially Tyreek Hill, so I think people will take

339
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: him over. And then the other two receivers ahead of

340
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: Jefferson or Deebo Samuel, who I'm not convinced people are

341
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: gonna take over Justin Jefferson next year, and Davante Adams,

342
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: who has a lot up in the air. He could

343
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: go to a different team who's going to be a

344
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: quarterbacks So that will determine that he could still go

345
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: over Jefferson, but then after you know, like those three receivers,

346
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: I think Jefferson and Jamaar Chase are in the discussion

347
00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: to be the next two off the board. But I

348
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: don't think we see like three or four receivers go

349
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: in the first round. So that's the only reason why

350
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 1: I think he's an early second round pick. I I

351
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 1: think you're right. I do see a situation where you

352
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: help people sort of at the turn right. You know,

353
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 1: if you if you're eleven or twelve, maybe you try

354
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: to shoehorn Jefferson in there, But I think consensus will

355
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,239
Speaker 1: probably put him in the second round. I think you're

356
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 1: right about Davontae Adams. We just don't know what his

357
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: situation is going to be. Where will Aaron Rodgers be,

358
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 1: Where will davontaev who you know, who's he catching passes from.

359
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,239
Speaker 1: That's going to impact where he gets drafted. And as

360
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: much as we've all enjoyed watching Deebo Samuel, this does

361
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 1: feel a little bit like an anomaly, Like, you know,

362
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 1: like he's been amazing this year, it seems like it's

363
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: gonna be hard to duplicate, and so I think that's

364
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: going to keep him out of the first round. Uh.

365
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: Side note, will we see any tight ends in the

366
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: first round? Like Travis Kelsey has been okay, but he

367
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: hasn't been spectacular. Uh do all the tight ends fall

368
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: out of the first round after this year? Potent? I

369
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: think the only one that has an argument to be

370
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: in the first round is Travis Kelsey because this is

371
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: even in a down year, this is gonna be his

372
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: sixth straight season as the tight end one. He's still

373
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: gonna have Patrick Mahomes there, but he's getting up there

374
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: in age a little bit. I also, I don't think

375
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: he gets in the first round, but I think Kyle

376
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: Pitts is going to go very very high next is

377
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: going to go very very high this year. It's it's

378
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: interesting too because and I know we didn't plan on

379
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,239
Speaker 1: having a tight end conversation, but here we are. Uh,

380
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts right now is your tight end eight. Um.

381
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: He's been good. Uh. I don't know what to make

382
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: of him, Like he's he's having a good season. He

383
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,360
Speaker 1: just has the one touchdown, but six hundred thirty five

384
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: receiving yards. I mean he's on pace to get over

385
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: a thousand yards of this year. Um, you know, I

386
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: think he's been good. I think he's about what I

387
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 1: anticipated for him. But I do think he gets drafted

388
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 1: very high next years. That's what to say about it.

389
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 1: He hasn't lived up to the X year one expectations,

390
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: but he has, in my opinion, at least shown us enough,

391
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: and especially in the highs. Like it's some of the

392
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: plays he makes, some of the big games he's had

393
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: that I know people are just gonna they're gonna get

394
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: sucked in again. I'm gonna be one of them, marshas

395
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: I guarantee. I mean, look, I I came in saying

396
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: he was going to be the tight end eight. That's

397
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: where he is right now. I didn't expect some of

398
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: the names currently ahead of him to be ahead of him,

399
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: Like I didn't think Hunter Henry or Mike the Sicky

400
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: would necessarily be or zach Ertz would necessarily be there.

401
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,719
Speaker 1: Um but you know, uh, the the end result right

402
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 1: now is about what I expected, even if the process

403
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,360
Speaker 1: to get there hasn't been what I thought it would be.

404
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: All right over now, I'm salty when we talk about

405
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: the guys who sort of broke our hearts in week

406
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 1: eleven and uh, there's a definite theme with I'm salty

407
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,719
Speaker 1: this week. We seem to be drawing our sending our

408
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: ire toward one particular team. So who are you displeased

409
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: with right now? The combination that is Ryan Tannehill and

410
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: A J. Brown. I had them as my favorite stack

411
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: of the week. I was building DFS lineups around these two,

412
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: and then Ryan's Anehill gave me single digit fantasy points

413
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: his worst game of the year against the Houston Texans,

414
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: and A J. Brown didn't do a whole lot either.

415
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: And the thing is this isn't just a one week

416
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: thing with these two. Like Ryan Tannehill coming into the

417
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 1: year average twenty one Fantasy points in his career as

418
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: a Titan starter would routinely give you around fantasy points.

419
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 1: That has not been the case. He's top twenty fantasy

420
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: points twice this year. And even when he like the

421
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks he gave his solid numbers, it

422
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 1: was because he had a rushing touchdown and then A J.

423
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: Brown single digits in three straight weeks. I mean he

424
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: and his Since week to markets, he has three games

425
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: in double digit fantasy points and six and single digits.

426
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: A J. Brown is someone that I thought had the

427
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: upside of being a top five or even the overall

428
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: wide receiver one, and he has been a big letdown.

429
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: He's an awesome dude. I root for him, but for

430
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: fantasy purposes he is This is becoming a trend now,

431
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: these two are becoming harder and harder to trust. He

432
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: was my dark horse to be the VU wide receiver

433
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: one at the end of the year. That was before

434
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: they got Julio Jones sort of downgraded him, but I

435
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: still thought, you know, top ten was certainly uh in

436
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: the cards for him, and it hasn't really been close. Um,

437
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna I'm gonna keep it in Tennessee. And

438
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: you know, like, I don't know how producer Justin feels

439
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: about this. I don't know if he is endorsing this,

440
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: if he uh is putting on it. He's putting on

441
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: his ear muffs while we do this segment. But Deonta Foreman, Um, look,

442
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: I kept saying this, nobody is going to replace Derrick Henry,

443
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 1: but it looked like Foreman was on track to kind

444
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: of take over the lead running back spot for the

445
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 1: time being. Adrian Peterson had been underwhelming on top of it.

446
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: It was a revenge game against the Houston Texans, and

447
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: somehow Foreman plays the fewest snaps of any Titans running

448
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: back fourteen snaps for Deonta Foreman. Adrian Peterson had fifteen.

449
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: Don Trelle Hilliard the answer to the question this week,

450
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 1: he had fifty snaps for the Tennessee Titans in the backfield.

451
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. I don't know why this happened.

452
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: Foreman ended up with seven carries for twenty five yards. Uh.

453
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 1: He did have one target. He caught that for fifteen yards.

454
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 1: He gave you forty yards of offense. I didn't see this.

455
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 1: None of us saw this coming. I feel like a

456
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: lot of people were on the Deonta Foreman train. Uh.

457
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: He gave him some love and the hype training on

458
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live and and it just was a complete head

459
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: scratcher in this one. Um, you know, I don't I

460
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 1: don't even really know what to say about it other

461
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 1: than this one baffled me. And I'm disappointed, and I'm salty,

462
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: that's all I got. Yeah, I mean, Foreman, Peterson, all

463
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: of these Titans running backs, It's like, how can you

464
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: trust any of them? And I know this is game

465
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: script dependent. They were trailing, that's why they had to

466
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: throw the ball so much, and that's why we saw

467
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: Hilliard used. But is he now that the running back

468
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: to tow roster? There is McNichols gonna play that role

469
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: when he comes back to me? This is this is

470
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: a fantasy mess right now. Yeah, it's it's starting to

471
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 1: become an offense. That's it's hard to figure out right now.

472
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 1: That's that's the last place we want to be especially.

473
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 1: Oh and you're starting to gear up for your fantasy

474
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: playoff run, so hopefully we get some more play. Do

475
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 1: you think Derrick Henry's m v P chances are increasing

476
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: with each game that he misses? Might be right, as

477
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 1: the Titans kind of struggle to figure out offense a

478
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: little bit and Derrick Henry sitting on the side, you know,

479
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: trying to get healthy. Um, you know he be and uh,

480
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 1: you know, for the Titan's sake, you know, obviously they

481
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 1: still have a shot at the playoffs and there's a

482
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: chance that Henry could come back, so for at least

483
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 1: their postseason hopes, you know, there's still something to to

484
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: kind of look forward to, fresh and fantasy though it's

485
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: it's kind of a wash at this point. Hey, it's

486
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:35,120
Speaker 1: part of the show where I tell you to follow

487
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: us on TikTok at NFL Fantasy and get all your

488
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 1: entertainment and information fantasy wise from us. There. It's a

489
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: good time. It's you know, it's a time suck. That's

490
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: what social media is. But if you're gonna do it,

491
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: come hanging out with us. You can also hang out

492
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:53,199
Speaker 1: with me at Marcus Grant on TikTok. I'm cooking up

493
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 1: some ideas. Maybe there'll be something new coming up. That's

494
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: a tease to get you to go and look at

495
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: my account and stuff. Go go for market, please please,

496
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: that'd be great. I would appreciate that. All right, that's

497
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 1: enough TikTok talk. TikTok talk anyway. Uh, the trade deadline

498
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 1: for NFL dot Com Standard leagues is coming up this Friday,

499
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 1: So this is your last chance to try and make

500
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 1: some swaps to see if you can bull bolster your

501
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: roster for a postseason run. So we got a couple

502
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: of guys that you might want to target to trade four,

503
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: a couple of guys you might want to think about

504
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: trading away. So uh, if you're looking for somebody to

505
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: pick up to add to your roster for the stretch run,

506
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: who would it be? It would be Jerry Judy. And

507
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: last week on Fantasy Live, I talked about five trade targets.

508
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert and A. J. Browner my top two, but

509
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 1: they this week changed things a little bit for them.

510
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy was number three. He was on buy. I

511
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 1: think people might, you know, they might forget not about

512
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy, but the fact that since he's returned, he

513
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 1: hasn't had a monstrous game yet, a big game. People

514
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 1: might just be thinking that Jerry Judy is okay, he's

515
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: a solid flex option or something like that. I think

516
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: his upside is a lot higher. I think the fact

517
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 1: that he's getting all the volume is what we want

518
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: to see. I think the fantasy production will come, especially

519
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,159
Speaker 1: now a week after the bye, just more time for

520
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: him to get reacclimated in this offense. So I really

521
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: like Jerry Judy as a trade target. He is clearly

522
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: their number one target when he is healthy, so I'm

523
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: looking to go out and get him, and he is

524
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: a very favorable schedule the rest of the way. I mean,

525
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: he has been the reason You've said repeatedly the Courtland

526
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 1: Sutton looks sort of droppable just because when Judy is there, Uh,

527
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: there's really not enough volume for anybody else in that offense.

528
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay though in Denver and say, Melvin Gordon

529
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 1: is a guy that that you want to target, and

530
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 1: we've talked about him in the last few weeks on

531
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: this show in terms of what it means for Javonte Williams.

532
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 1: The fact that even though Williams is playing well, Gordon

533
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: is doing enough to hang onto the job and get

534
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 1: those opportunities, especially down near the goal line. So if

535
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: that's the case, it sounds like a guy you might

536
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: want on your roster. He's going to get those touches.

537
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: He's continuing to run hard, he's continuing to be product if,

538
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 1: and he's scoring touchdowns see Tennemore touches in all ten

539
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: games this season. He's getting those looks and look just

540
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: as easily. You could probably make the same case for

541
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams, even though he doesn't seem to have the

542
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: touchdown upside, but there are some really nice games left

543
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 1: on the schedule. You know he's going to get the

544
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: volume and on top of it. It may not cost

545
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: you a king's ransom in terms of what you have

546
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: to give up to get a guy like Melvin Gordon.

547
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: Right now, running backs are at a premium. So if

548
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 1: there's a team with Melvin Gordon in your league that

549
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 1: isn't really going anywhere, now's the time to to put

550
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: something together and see if maybe you can just get

551
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 1: that second running back to kind of help you through

552
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 1: the postseason. It would be a good job. On the

553
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: other side, guys that you might want to get rid of,

554
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,360
Speaker 1: who's on that list for you. I know this sounds

555
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 1: kind of crazy because he leads, or at least he

556
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: led the NFL coming into this week in touchdowns, But

557
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: it's James Conner. I know he's got thirteen touchdowns on

558
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: the year, but he has been very touchdown dependent until lately.

559
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 1: When I know he's still in a crazy scoring streak

560
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 1: right now, but he's been getting more usage as a

561
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 1: pass catcher. Uh, he has thirteen catches in the last

562
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: three games. He had five though up until that point,

563
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: and after the Cardinals by next week, Chase Edmonds is

564
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: eligible to return. I believe they're gonna have Kyler Murray

565
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 1: and DeAndre Hopkins back. So my fear is that James

566
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,439
Speaker 1: Conner is gonna go back into a role like he

567
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: was in early on in the year. Maybe he gets

568
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: more usage on the ground, But I don't think the

569
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: Cardinals are going to get shy away from using Chase

570
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: Edmonds as their pass catcher. I think at full health,

571
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 1: they like having him in that role and Connor in

572
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 1: the role that he was playing. So I think right now,

573
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,239
Speaker 1: while the perception is that James Connors and RB one

574
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: who's gonna score double digit to multiple touchdowns each week,

575
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 1: then then you I think you could trade him potentially

576
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,679
Speaker 1: for like a wide receiver one or something like that.

577
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 1: So I would definitely be entertaining the option of selling

578
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: James Conner. Cliff Kingsbury has been very consistent about kind

579
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 1: of instituting a sixty split with his running backs, and

580
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: when Chase Edmonds was healthy, he was more on the

581
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: sixties side of that, which does make Connor a little

582
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: bit more touchdown dependent. It's been great so far. It's

583
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 1: a hard way to live, um, I would say this. So,

584
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 1: and in the interest of full disclosure, originally my name

585
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: here was Joe Mixon and then he went out and

586
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 1: you know, had a huge game against the Raiders. Uh,

587
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: And you know, I was like, I still think there's

588
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,159
Speaker 1: a scenario where you can sort of trade Joe Mixing away.

589
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 1: But I think the guy that might be a better

590
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 1: option to sort of move on from is Miles Sanders,

591
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 1: because on paper, at least, he is going to be

592
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 1: the number one running back in Philadelphia. But you know,

593
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard is still there, Boston Scott is still getting opportunities.

594
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: The schedule is not particularly great. Even though the Eagles

595
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: have become a lot more run heavy, Sanders being back

596
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: in the mix does make this a little bit more

597
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: of a muddled situation. Uh It. I think he's the

598
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: sort of he's got enough name, cash, enough opportunity that

599
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: you can sort of put him out there in a

600
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,719
Speaker 1: trade and look to get something decent back in return.

601
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: But I think if you're trying to roll with Miles

602
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: Sanders and start him on a week to week basis,

603
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be really, really hard. And I come

604
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: back to what I said all off season that we

605
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: love Miles Sanders, but I don't think the Eagles love

606
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders in the same sort of way, And they

607
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 1: just keep showing it, by the guys they bring in,

608
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: by how they use their other running backs. He's just

609
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: never going to be the workhorse in Philadelphia, then I

610
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: think we want him to be. So this seems like

611
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 1: a good opportunity to try and flip Miles Sanders for

612
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: something else, uh and see if you can maybe strengthen

613
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: some other parts of your roster to help you get

614
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: into the postseason. Um so, uh so those are our

615
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: our targets to trade for and trade away. We know

616
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: that you out there have trade questions, so we decided

617
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: to pull a few of them from Twitter dot com

618
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: and uh see if we can answer them as best

619
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: as possible. So we'll start with this one from Brandon

620
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,479
Speaker 1: Brandon Swayzee. I don't know if he's any relation to

621
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: Patrick uh. He asks Javonte Williams for Alex Collins and

622
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: Rashad Bateman feel weird flexing Mike Williams lately? Full disclosure, Uh.

623
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: He sent this before the Sunday night game where Mike

624
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: Williams ended up, you know, having it pretty nice night.

625
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: So I don't know if he still feels weird about

626
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: flexing Mike Williams, but the question remains. Javontay Williams for

627
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: Alex Collins and Rashad Bateman thumbs up or thumbs down

628
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: from you, Floria, I would give this the thumbs down.

629
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: You know, I like Rashad Bateman, but to me, I

630
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 1: feel like if you have to decide each week between

631
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: him and Mike Williams, that's gonna be a headache. And

632
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: I feel like Alex Collins is a big downgrade to

633
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 1: Javontay Williams. I just really don't like Alex Collins as

634
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: a fantasy piece. Whereas as much as I agree with you, Marcus,

635
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: I like Melvin Gordon a lot. I think there's still

636
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: a little bit of upside there with Javontay, that maybe

637
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: they get him a little bit more usage after the

638
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 1: buy or something like that, and he's played well, like

639
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: God forbid, Melvin Gordon got hurt. His ceiling then is

640
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: a lot higher than Alex Collins, who is playing at

641
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: his ceiling now. So I would hold on to Williams.

642
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: I would agree with you, just because you know, the

643
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 1: the giving up Javontay Williams and getting Alex Collins back

644
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: in in exchange feels like a big loss there um.

645
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: And as much as I like Rashad Bateman. I you know,

646
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: I'm I'm sort of with you on trying to figure

647
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: him out week to weeks. So I would much rather

648
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: have Javontay Williams in that situation. And maybe he's the

649
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: guy you flex if you're worried about, uh, Mike Williams

650
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 1: that you flex, will you flex Javonte Williams over Mike

651
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 1: Williams uh, And maybe that helps you out a little

652
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: bit better. I'd also be curious to know who the

653
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: who your other running backs are, uh, that you're willing

654
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: to sort of make this deal there, but that that

655
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 1: seems like to two knows on that one Brandon, next

656
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: one from Dustin Dustin Payne, who asks Antonio Gibson from

657
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 1: Mike Evans half point PPR. Don't know if I should

658
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: let Gibson go have C MC and J Rob wide

659
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: receivers are justin Jefferson and A J. Brown with Cooks

660
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: on the bench. I mean my immediate responses, I would

661
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: hold on to Gibson just because you already seem pretty

662
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: kind of loaded a wide receiver. Yeah, that is my

663
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: like on its head, I was like, yeah, I think

664
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: Mike Evans gives it from my Givans is a good trade.

665
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: But then I realized, like, GOO have three good receivers.

666
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: And then if you give up Gibson, what is your

667
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: RB depth looking like? And I like having at least

668
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: a solid RB that I know, like, hey, especially with

669
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey and James Robinson as my starters. Those two

670
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: have been banked up as of late, so is Gibson,

671
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: So I feel like you need the RB depth there. Yeah,

672
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 1: I would completely agree, So I would hold on hold

673
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: on this. So far, that's two knows on these trade options, alright.

674
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: Third question comes from Jack. Should I offer James Conner

675
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 1: for d J. Moore or Terry McLaurin or hold James Conner? Well,

676
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: you you sort of answered that right. You just said

677
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 1: James Connor seems like a trade away option, So I

678
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 1: guess the only other question is do you want d J.

679
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: Moore or Terry McLaurin. I want Terry McLaurin. He is

680
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 1: my guy. He showed us yesterday the upside that he has.

681
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: I would even say before accepting this trade, I might

682
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,239
Speaker 1: even shop Connor a little bit longer to see if

683
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,479
Speaker 1: I can get maybe an even better receiver. But if

684
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 1: I have to choose between these two, it's Terry mclauren

685
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: for me, that's yeah, that's an easy call for me too.

686
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: I would definitely go McLaurin. Um, you know, and a

687
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: lot of the reasons that we talked about with James Connor,

688
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: Jase Edmonds coming back with new Hopkins and Kyler Murray

689
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,719
Speaker 1: coming back that seems to lessen his opportunity. So this

690
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: feels like a cell high sort of opportunity with Connor.

691
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 1: And if mclauren is one of the names on the table,

692
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: that's the one I'm taking there, all right. Last one here,

693
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: this one from who you fooling? Uh? Yes? A J.

694
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: Dillon for Terry McLaurin or a J. Dillon for J. D.

695
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: Mckissic and Elijah More. This is interesting, This is a

696
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: good question. As much as I like Elijah More, here,

697
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it for Terry McLaurin and A J.

698
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: Dillon is a really good running back. But I am

699
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: anticipating that we get Aaron Jones back after this week

700
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 1: when the Packers, uh, they play this week, then they

701
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: have a bye, so I think we're gonna see after

702
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: that by We're gonna see a lot of Aaron Jones

703
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: again in our lives. So because of that, I would

704
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 1: take the the potential wide receiver one and Terry mclaurens.

705
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: I think that's that's probably the move there. Um. I

706
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: know Elijah More has been hot the last couple of weeks, uh,

707
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: and there's probably a lot more opportunity for him there.

708
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: But Uh, if you're asking me to choose between the

709
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: Washington offense and the Jets offense, I'm gonna take Washington. Um.

710
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 1: You know, And as much as I liked J D mckissic,

711
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: you know, it seems like Antonio Gibson is starting to

712
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 1: get some more touches and some more opportunities there, so

713
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,839
Speaker 1: maybe maybe his value is starting to shrink as well.

714
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: Whereas we know Terry McLaurin is going to continue to

715
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 1: eat because they still need a second pass catcher. Um,

716
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 1: they just don't have one. It's become a lost season

717
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 1: for Curtis Samuel. So they need to body to throw

718
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: the football too. And that's that's what I dream of

719
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: the day, Marcus, where Terry McLaurin gets consistent quarterback play,

720
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: that's all I want for him. You know, I saw,

721
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 1: you know, Mina Kimes tweeted about Terry McLaurin and how

722
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 1: she wished he could get a legitimate quarterback, and the

723
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: only thought that ran through my head is will he

724
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 1: be Allen Robinson two point? Oh? Like I hope? Not

725
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: like I hope. Man, Let's let's let's get Russell Wilson

726
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 1: and Terry McLaurin on like the same team together or

727
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,359
Speaker 1: something like that. That would be amazing. I am down

728
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,400
Speaker 1: for that. That would be a lot of fun, absolutely

729
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 1: all right. So, so best of luck to all of

730
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: you who are looking to make some trades or who

731
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 1: has some trade offers sitting on the table. Again. The

732
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 1: NFL dot com trade deadline is on Friday, so one

733
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: last chance to sort of put some offers together and

734
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 1: see what you can get together for your stretch run.

735
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: Sorry for a break, but after that, we're diving into

736
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: the Week twelve waiver Wire, including a couple of throwback

737
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: fantasy names who have some renewed relevance. Find out who

738
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: they are like NFL Fantasy Football Show returns, Let's take

739
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 1: a look at Michael f. Florio's welcome Week twelve waiver

740
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 1: wire targets. Uh, take us through your list for the week, Yeah, Cam,

741
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,879
Speaker 1: Newton is still available and over half of NFL dot

742
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: com leagues that needs to change. He was a top

743
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 1: scoring quarterback this week and gets a great matchup next week.

744
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: Two Entyrod Taylor or two other options I think could

745
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: be picked up at streaming options, especially Taylor for this

746
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: week again the Jets, DeVonta Freeman was still the Ravens

747
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 1: lead back even with Latavius Murray back. Then you see

748
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson and Tevin Coleman there. That's because Michael Carter

749
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,319
Speaker 1: exited with an ankle injury. It's potentially a week where

750
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: those two could be the lead back for the Jets.

751
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 1: Hill you're there just because of all the volume he saw.

752
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: And then David Johnson and Rex Burke had each had

753
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,479
Speaker 1: double digit touches this week, and they get the best

754
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: matchup for running backs against the Jets. And Jeff Wilson Jr.

755
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: Just because of the volume he saw, I think he's

756
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: worth the rostering with the bench spot there. And then

757
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 1: looking at some receivers, Elijah More, I mean, this guy

758
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 1: just keeps going off right now. Darnel Mooney had six

759
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: teens targets. I know Allen Robinson was out, but volume

760
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: like that cannot be ignored. If those two are still

761
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: available in your league, which they are in over half

762
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 1: of NFL dot com leagues, I think you need to

763
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: get him A small text here for Marquez Velde Scantling

764
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: and Nick Westbrook Akini. They both just keep getting volume,

765
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: or at least they saw a big volume this week,

766
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: so take a shot on them. Cedric Wilson could be

767
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: the Cowboys wide receiver to this week, and then some

768
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,320
Speaker 1: tight ends. Adam Troutman, I know it was against the Eagles,

769
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 1: but he continues to seek consistent volume. Austin Hooper has

770
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: seen volume since O'Dell has left. And then Evan Ingram

771
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 1: I know he hasn't even played yet, it doesn't matter.

772
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: He gets the Eagles next week. You stream tight ends

773
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: against Billy uh So. A couple of things about your list. One, uh,

774
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 1: you're talking about Michael Carter exiting with an ankle injury.

775
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: I completed a trade with our pal Matt Okada where

776
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 1: I got Michael Carter and then he immediately gets hurt,

777
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: so that that sort of stinks. Also, the all three

778
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 1: of the tight ends you have on your waiver wire list,

779
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: just a sneak peek there if they are going to

780
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 1: make it into the sleeper's column. And the one that

781
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: I'm worried the most about is Evan Ingram, because I

782
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 1: think at least twice, maybe three times this year, I

783
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: have put him in the sleeper's column and he has

784
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: done absolutely nothing. So I'm ready to get my my

785
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 1: clown grease paint out again and paint my face like

786
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 1: a clown when I again put Evan Ingram in the

787
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 1: sleeper's column and he inevitably gives me nothing. If if

788
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: he does that again against the Eagles, I will never

789
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 1: start him again. There's this is this is this is

790
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 1: the hard line. We're taking him, an Ingram, if you

791
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,879
Speaker 1: can't get it done against the Eagles, it is a rap.

792
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: That's it, alright. UM. A couple of names though, worth

793
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 1: talking here. DeVante Freeman and you talked about the fact

794
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: that he's still got a lot of work even with

795
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: Latavius Murray back and healthy. That's good news for DeVante Freeman.

796
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 1: For those of us who maybe are stashing Latavius Murray

797
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 1: or try to use him as a flex Does this

798
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,399
Speaker 1: mean we should be a little bit worried about him now?

799
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 1: I think so. Like Freeman played well in his absence,

800
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 1: and my thinking was, all right, it will still be

801
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: a split, but Mury will take back like the heavy

802
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: share of that. That wasn't the case. And what worries

803
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: me even more is DeVonta Freeman saw all of the

804
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 1: target I mean six targets yesterday in the passising game

805
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,720
Speaker 1: for Freeman. So I think Freeman is the lead back

806
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 1: in Baltimore. I think Murray saw the volume where you

807
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: could continue to hold onto him, but I would not

808
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: be starting him anytime student until we see him take

809
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,720
Speaker 1: over that lead role again. Yeah, the targets are definitely

810
00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 1: the big thing there too. For DeVante Freeman. I mean

811
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: I would have said coming into the year that if

812
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: I were going to pick a back, I think it'd

813
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: be DeVante Freeman. Just seems like he still has a

814
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,800
Speaker 1: little more left, uh than Latavius Murray. And at least

815
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 1: if yesterday is any indication, uh, maybe the Ravens start

816
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: to think so too. Uh. Tyrod Taylor a big surprise

817
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 1: in terms of his fantasy production yesterday against the Tennessee Titans.

818
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 1: And you know, look, there's not a lot in the

819
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: Texans offense to get excited about. But this week Tyrod

820
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,959
Speaker 1: has the Jets and you talked about it in terms

821
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 1: of Houston's running backs with David Johnson and Rex birkehead,

822
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 1: But what about the quarterback? Is he worth a start?

823
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 1: Maybe a DFS start against the Jets this week? I

824
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: think so, especially in DFS, Like I'm not gonna start

825
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 1: him in his seasonal over like some one of my

826
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: studs or something like that. But if you're streaming, I

827
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:51,320
Speaker 1: think he's a strong streaming option because the Jets struggle mightily,

828
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 1: like by far the worst team at stopping the run. Well, Luckily,

829
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,359
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor can run, so maybe they used him more

830
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: this week as an extension of the running game. He

831
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 1: had the two rushing touchdowns this past week, which we

832
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,319
Speaker 1: know his rushing ability just gives him a pretty safe

833
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: floor and a higher ceiling and fantasy so I like

834
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: him as a streaming option this week. Alright, Tyrod or

835
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:15,040
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton, I would go with Taylor there. Yeah, yeah, same,

836
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: because again, the rushing upside is probably what makes the

837
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,879
Speaker 1: difference for me, uh in that one, even though both

838
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 1: of them have pretty good matchups. Alright, So if we're

839
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: looking at Week twelve waivers, and you have the top

840
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 1: waiver priority or you still have a bunch of fab

841
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 1: burning a hole in your fake pockets. Where are you

842
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 1: going with it? For me? The top ad is Elijah More.

843
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: This guy has got six targets or more in five

844
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,399
Speaker 1: straight games, double digit Fantasy points in each, and it's

845
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: twice now top twenty seven. And he's done it with

846
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 1: the revolving door of quarterbacks for the Jets, four different quarterbacks,

847
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: and he's caught passes four in this stretch. But Alijah More,

848
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna talk about him as well, Marcus.

849
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: If a Lajah Moore has already rostered or you have,

850
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: you know, maybe you don't have the top waiver wired priority.

851
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 1: I think Darneld Mooney needs to be prioritized this week

852
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 1: as well. Sixteen targets. He's consistently getting volume as of late.

853
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 1: Him and Justin Fields have already shown a connection. So

854
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 1: those two guys are my top targets this week. I

855
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 1: do like Mooney, especially because you know we're going back

856
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,720
Speaker 1: to preseason. He was every fantasy analysts favorite sleeper wide

857
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,359
Speaker 1: receiver and uh, it hasn't worked out, But I don't

858
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: think it's because of Darnell Mooney. But I am still

859
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 1: sort of leaning toward Elijah More just because the volume

860
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: has been so great, and even though the Jets keep

861
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,399
Speaker 1: saying we're not going to do anything special to try

862
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: to get him more opportunity, that those those opportunities seem

863
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: to have found their way to him anyway. Plus, the

864
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 1: way the Jets defense is negative game scripts seemed to

865
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 1: be a thing regularly for them, So that means more

866
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: chances to throw the football. And regardless of who it is,

867
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: if it's you know, Zack Wilson or Mike Wide or

868
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,439
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco or Ken O'Brien or Chad Pennington, I don't

869
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,320
Speaker 1: really care who the Jets quarterback is. They're throwing the

870
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 1: ball to Elijah More and that is really all I

871
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: care about. So, um, there you go. So either way,

872
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: you got a couple of game with Joe Flacco. He

873
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 1: did have a good game with Joe Flacco. Um, you know,

874
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:05,240
Speaker 1: look quarterback proof. Say say what you want about Joe Flacker,

875
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 1: he at least is a veteran who has kind of

876
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 1: been through a whole lot of things. So, uh, you know,

877
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: playing behind a bad offensive line, I'm sure he knows

878
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 1: how to figure it out. Whereas Zach Wilson and Mike

879
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 1: White still need a little more seasoning in that area.

880
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,799
Speaker 1: So there's one last game in week eleventh, Monday night

881
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: football down in Tampa between the Giants and the Buccaneers.

882
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 1: So simple question, say Kwon Barkley expected to be back

883
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:34,879
Speaker 1: on the field tonight for the g Men over under

884
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,359
Speaker 1: fifteen points for him? Which way you're going, I'm gonna

885
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: be optimistic here. I'm gonna take the over. I do

886
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 1: not feel great about it, but I think he'll get

887
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: over it in a very ugly fashion. Like I don't

888
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,839
Speaker 1: think he's gonna have, you know, like a great game

889
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 1: by any stretch. But I think like when we look

890
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 1: at the box score, I could see something like six

891
00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 1: catches for like I don't know, like eighty yards to

892
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 1: or like a total of like nineties total yards with

893
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 1: like six catches mixed in something like that. So I

894
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 1: think he does most of his damage though through the air,

895
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: not on the ground today. I would concur with that.

896
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: And I think he gets over And I think it's

897
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: because because the PPR help that he gets catching the

898
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,839
Speaker 1: football out of the backfield. I mean that's a thing

899
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 1: that you have pointed out that the Bucks struggle with

900
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 1: defending or past catching, running backs, and if the Giants

901
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 1: are playing from behind, which would not be a surprise, Uh,

902
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,400
Speaker 1: then I think you see sake wont catch the football.

903
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: But I don't think the yardage numbers are going to

904
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: be particularly great. I don't think it's gonna by the way,

905
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to be ron Dale Moore egregious. Uh.

906
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: He had eleven catches for fifty one yards, which is

907
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: just stupid. Um, he's the new Julian Edelman, he really is.

908
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 1: He had sixteen points because he had eleven catches. That's

909
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 1: that's just gross. Like he didn't even average five yards

910
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 1: per catch. What are we doing here? Stop it? But

911
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:51,240
Speaker 1: I do think sake Wand gets over fifteen tonight. Alright, alright,

912
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 1: so finish the sentence. If I was starting a Giant

913
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: wide receiver tonight, it would be blank. I've gone back

914
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,839
Speaker 1: and forth on this, but it would be Ca Darius Tony. Uh,

915
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 1: neither one of them. You know, Tony Gala Day. Any

916
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: of the Giants receivers really brings a safe four. So

917
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about ceiling here. And I think Tony still

918
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 1: has the highest upside of the Giants receivers. Uh, We've

919
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 1: seen him have a game where he's gone off for

920
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 1: over a hundred and eighty yards this year. He could

921
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: throw too. This is something that they should be mixing

922
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: more into their offense. I mean, we saw a video

923
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 1: of him throwing like sixty yards from his knees. But

924
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: I just think that he has the highest ceiling. So

925
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: in a game where I don't feel great about any

926
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 1: of them, I'll just take the upside play. So, I mean,

927
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,919
Speaker 1: all of that makes absolute since, but I'm still gonna

928
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,400
Speaker 1: go with Kenny Golladay just because it just feels like

929
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:42,320
Speaker 1: time and I know that that's not really great process.

930
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: I know that's not great analysis. But he has one

931
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 1: game with more than sixty four receiving yards. He had

932
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 1: a hundred and sixteen against the Saints back in Week four.

933
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 1: He still doesn't have a touchdown yet this year. It

934
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,320
Speaker 1: has been just kind of a miserable, frustrating, borderline lost

935
00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 1: season for Kenny Golladay. So, UH don't know, this just

936
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,440
Speaker 1: feels like a situation where he finds a way to

937
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: break out, where maybe Daniel Jones hits him downfield, he

938
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 1: somehow gets behind the secondary. I don't know what it is.

939
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,240
Speaker 1: There's there's nothing about this Giant's passing game that seems

940
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: very predictable or very stable or very consistent. Um And

941
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 1: so while all the signs point to k Darius Tony

942
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 1: getting a lot of short targets in space, let him

943
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,799
Speaker 1: do his thing. Uh, maybe this just happens to be

944
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: the Kenny Golladay night. All the last time we saw

945
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:31,879
Speaker 1: the Giants play, their running backs end tight ends had

946
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 1: more targets than their receivers. So take that for what

947
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 1: you will. It is it is that, And that was

948
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,399
Speaker 1: sort of why I asked the questions, because I don't

949
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,759
Speaker 1: really know what to do with their wide receivers there.

950
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 1: It has been a mess pretty much all year long.

951
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 1: All right, last one, Rob Gronkowski expected back forward tonight.

952
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: He's been dealing with some back issues for a while.

953
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,879
Speaker 1: So let's put the over under at eight points for Gronk. Uh,

954
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: you going higher or lower? I'm going higher here. And

955
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 1: this one was a lot easier for me than they

956
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 1: say at Kwon Barkley one. And look, it's it's Brady,

957
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,360
Speaker 1: It's Gronk. It's Monday Night on National TV. Gronk is back.

958
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:06,879
Speaker 1: You know, Tom Brady is gonna be looking for him

959
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,479
Speaker 1: in the end zone. I think Gronk scores a touchdown today,

960
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 1: and if he gets the six from the touchdown, I

961
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:14,319
Speaker 1: think he easily tops eight fantasy points. I think that's fair,

962
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,080
Speaker 1: and I think I'll go over for that same reason,

963
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 1: just because even if he doesn't get a lot of

964
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 1: targets or a lot of catches, I think he gets

965
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 1: one in the end zone and then once that's done,

966
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:24,720
Speaker 1: we'll take a whole lot to get to eight points.

967
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,359
Speaker 1: So I will put him over the eight. Uh. Yeah, Look,

968
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 1: if he's healthy, I wouldn't be surprised if he's a

969
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 1: top ten Fantasy tied end for the rest of the year,

970
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,840
Speaker 1: partially because of how they use him, partially because of

971
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 1: the position, but that's what it is. So so we're

972
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: talking during the break this this this has the feeling

973
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 1: of being kind of a closer game than we anticipated.

974
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 1: But if that's the case, it probably won't be fun

975
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 1: to watch, right, No, And I think we're gonna get

976
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:52,240
Speaker 1: a lot of like Brady versus the Giant narratives. Even though, um,

977
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,839
Speaker 1: everyone who was on that Super Bowl team that beat

978
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: Tom Brady both times is long retired and and all

979
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,879
Speaker 1: the coaches are gone and everything, we're still gonna get

980
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:02,960
Speaker 1: that narrative that Tom Brady the Giants have beat him

981
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 1: twice in the Super Bowl and all that. You'll be

982
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 1: great for the Manning cast if they pulled out like

983
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 1: David Tyree and Plexico Burus and like all these guys

984
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 1: and just like it, just sitting reminisce about when they

985
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,799
Speaker 1: beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl. I actually might

986
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: watch the Manning Cast if something like that we're gonna happen.

987
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 1: That would make it fun. Right, I've totally watched that absolutely. Ah.

988
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 1: So you mean in the meantime for us, that is it.

989
00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 1: We are done. We appreciate you hanging out with the

990
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:30,839
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Football show. You know the drill. Tell two

991
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: friends to tell to friends rate review and remember if

992
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,280
Speaker 1: Marble's aren't made of marble, why are they called marbles?

993
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,920
