Basically, if you had if 19 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: you had a good defense, it probably let you down 20 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: this week, it is right, what happened? Yeah, there's a 21 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: lot of things that just this just didn't make sense. 22 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: Speaking of London games, we actually have I guess a correspondence, 23 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: so to speak, is Kio Spikes, former NFL linebacker, was 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 1: over there and he will check in to talk fantasy 25 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: and talk about what he saw a little bit at 26 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: Wimbley Stadium between the Seahawks and the Raiders. But it's 27 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: always behind the glass. It was our man, our faithful producers. 28 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: Sir Edward L. Murphy esquire at Murph, what's top man? 29 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: You guys just talking about defenses. I'll tell you what 30 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: I love. Offense. Every week and every primetime game should 31 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: be one Chiefs game, one Rams game, and I'd be 32 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: acting man right right, Well, I know next week we 33 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: do get that, right, we get we get another Chiefs 34 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: game that got flexed to uh just what Sunday night.

So 36 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: that'll be a little points bonanza or at least it's 37 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: got the possibility to be fun to watch. Patrick Mahomes, 38 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: he acquitted himself quiet well, even though the Chiefs didn't 39 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: get the win against the Patriots. Uh my Homes bawled out. 40 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: Yeah he's a good manny, I mean, he made a 41 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: couple of mistakes, but boy, he's so much fun to watch. 42 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: And and the Patriots, Boy, how do you let Tyreek 43 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: do that to you?

Okay for twenty four hours, 64 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: that's what he's gotta do. Real talk, though, how do 65 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: you enforce a stadium band? There's no they always say that, right, 66 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: and there's like there's multiple entrances. It's not like every 67 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: ticket taker security guard is going to have like there's 68 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,839 Speaker 1: no there's no wanted post. What if the dude does 69 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: like a Bobby Valentine with a mustache and glass put 70 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: a hat on it. Just I don't know. It just 71 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,839 Speaker 1: feels like that feels like I watched like they said something, 72 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: they made a statement. Everybody's like, Okay, that's great, but 73 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: like there's no way to enforce this, like strongly worded letter, right, 74 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: good luck? Good luck with that. The jerk store called 75 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: out there you go. So we got played talking about 76 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: we'll have Tekillo spikes. We will talk about some the 77 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: trade deadlines coming in the NFL, and it's not I know, 78 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: the trade deadline in the NFL is not quiet like 79 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: what it is in baseball or basketball or anything like. 80 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: It's the one thing that's missing from the NFL is 81 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: the one thing where that other sports have head and 82 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: shoulders above the National Football League. But you know, there 83 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: are some names that are floating around, so we'll talk 84 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: about some of the interesting names and what they could mean, 85 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: where they could go to maybe boost their fantasy value 86 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: and that sort of thing. We also talking about some 87 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: guys who stunk it up this past week and whether 88 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: or not we're gonna go back to them. Of course, 89 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: we'll always close it out with some of your waiver 90 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: wire picks, but let's start off by doing some news. 91 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: We will start with the Rams, who pulled out a 92 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: really tough win against the Denver Broncos on Sunday. And 93 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: if you watched any of that game, you saw early 94 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: on Cooper up on a jet sweep get dragged down 95 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: from behind by a horse collar tackle. Uh and was 96 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: taken off on a cart And at the time it 97 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: looked really bad and and certainly, you know, everybody in 98 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: the Twitter verse and just I think most people watching 99 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: kind of suspected that maybe that was the end of 100 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup for the season. But then he comes back 101 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: in the second half. He was in the huddle for 102 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: the first play, he was on the field a little bit, 103 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: didn't play much. But he did come back and play, 104 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: which obviously goes against the idea that he was out 105 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: for the year. Now his status obviously sort of remains 106 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: in doubt. We'll see what happens, how much he practices, 107 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: if he practices at all. But I think a lot 108 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: of people FABS have to be breathing a sigh of 109 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: relief that he was able to come back at all. Yeah, man, 110 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: because I look bad, uh, And I'm glad it wasn't 111 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 1: as bad as it looked. Let's just put it that way. 112 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: But you know, Jared Goff, you know we're gonna talk 113 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: about this later on in the show. A couple of 114 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: down games, but I mean, Robert Woods had another fantastic game, 115 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: And you know, we talked about who's the best RAMS 116 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: wide receiver. They've got three really good ones, and anyone 117 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,239 Speaker 1: of the three can go off at any given moment. 118 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: But would have been the guy over the last couple 119 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: of weeks, especially with the Cup being hurt uh last 120 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: week and this week, and of course Brandon Cooks was 121 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: banged up last week as well. Uh. Sort of waiving 122 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: the flag of USC wide receivers who are now kicking 123 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: but all over the National Football league. But let's talk 124 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: about Todd Gurley a little bit too. I mean, this 125 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: guy is he's on basically better than he was last season, 126 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,239 Speaker 1: and he had nine touchdowns last season. He's unbelievable good. 127 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,679 Speaker 1: And Los Angeles is home to the two best running 128 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: backs in fantasy football. That's wild, huh. And that is 129 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 1: why Gordon is going off. Melvin Gordon square all of 130 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: the type to that. I said after the first couple 131 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: of weeks, I said that, you know, Melvin Gordon could 132 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: legitimately lead the NFL in touchdowns when it's all said 133 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: and done. He as we sit here right now, has nine. 134 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: Gurly has eleven. But I think like that's gonna go 135 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: back and forth all year long, because not only does 136 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: guilt Gordon get those goal line texas they throw it 137 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: to him. I mean, you know, he's like everybody who 138 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: has Keenan Allen is scratching their head wondering why Keenan 139 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: Allen can't score touchdowns. It's it's because Melvin Gordon's taking on. 140 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: And anybody who got Gordon, and I know in our 141 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: league money got him in the second round and I 142 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: wanted him so bad, but he got him before anybody 143 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: who got Gordon outside of the first round. Pat yourself 144 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: on the back, go get yourself your favorite. I p 145 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: A because you my friend got a STI well. And 146 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: and Melvin Gordon's going to be a top three pick 147 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: next year, dude, he's so good. I mean, if this 148 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: keeps up, he will be a top three fantasy pick. 149 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: It'll be you know, in some order, will be you know, girly, 150 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: it'll be Melvin Gordon. What maybe say kwan uh, you 151 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: know something like that. I mean, that's that's what it's 152 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: going to be next year, because I mean that's just 153 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: left bell that. You know. We'll get to that. Yeah, 154 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: we'll get yeah. Um. Other injury news, Ryan Tannehill right 155 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: now day to day with a shoulder injury. It's the 156 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: same shoulder injury that kept him out of action on 157 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: Sunday when brock Ozweilers the hell man, you know, if 158 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: I had know that did the hell? I didn't know 159 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: this thing that brock Osweilder was undefeated against the fair 160 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: like I had one. I mean, we just as soon 161 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: you know, the Bears Bears gonna eat him alive. It's 162 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: brock Osweiler. And then he came in and just bawled out. Um. 163 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: If I hadn't known that brock Oswilder was undefeated against 164 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: the Bears, I might have thought differently. So and that 165 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,119 Speaker 1: just goes to the unpredictability of the national football getting 166 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: that game in the game in Dallas. And I mean 167 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: when we heard yesterday that Tannehill was out in Oswilder's 168 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: in and you think Oswalleer, do you think picks turnovers? 169 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: And then you think Bears defense coming off a bye 170 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: and you're like, oh my god, you're frothing at the 171 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: mouth that you have. The Bears defense is thing and 172 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: this is gonna be fantastic. And brock Oswiling through for 173 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: three yards and three touchdowns. The Dolphins had five one 174 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: yards a total offense scored thirty one points. I get 175 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,599 Speaker 1: the Bears gets the Bears. I mean that is insane. 176 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: I it's crazy, but that's the NFL. You know. For 177 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: all that, I'd still start the Lions defense again. If 178 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: if if Osweiler is starting next week, still I would 179 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: still stream the Lions defense. Yeah. And what's insane is that, 180 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: like if Oswalder players again, people are gonna be thinking, well, 181 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 1: brock Osweiler off the waiver. If I'm in a two 182 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: QB league or a super flex league. I don't think that. 183 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: I don't think that I'm I'm I'm telling you right now, 184 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: people do not think that. You know, I just don't like. Okay, 185 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: don't this is not a fitz Magic situation. Don't push 186 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 1: your luck here. This is still it's still there's a 187 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 1: reason brock Osweiler has been bouncing around the league and 188 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: as a backup. So but I do think it's interesting 189 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 1: because nobody's really starting Ryan Tannehill. Obviously nobody's starting Brock Osweiler. 190 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: But I think it doesn't mean something for any opposing 191 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: defenses that you might face going forward. And I think 192 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: that makes I think the Lions if if it looks 193 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: like Oswader is playing again this week, I think the 194 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: Lions will be a very popular defensive pick. Yeah, And 195 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: just so you know, and we'll be talking about this 196 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: on the podcast later in the week and on NFL 197 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: Fantasy Life TV. There are a whole bunch of really 198 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: good quarterbacks with brutal matchup it's not a great brutal matchups, 199 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: and a lot of really good defenses that also have 200 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: bad matchups. Not to mention, you also have four teams 201 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: on A this week, so we're gonna yea including the Packers. 202 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: I believe Aaron Rodgers is one of those hat s 203 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: burgs off as well. Yes we are. We are going 204 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 1: to be helping you guys, and you're gonna need it 205 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: because between the matchups the quarterback position and you know 206 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 1: you're losing four tight ends. Um, it is gonna be 207 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: rough sledding, uh this week for the matchups when it 208 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: comes to qbs and tight ends. There you go. Speaking 209 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 1: of defenses, the Boxes are gonna have a new defensive coordinator, 210 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: Mike Smith has been let's go for multiple report to it. 211 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: I mean for our purposes, this sucks. For the Bucks, well, 212 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: their defense sucks and that's why they made this change. 213 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: They are the thirty first ranked defense, which the fact 214 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: that they're only thirty one and not thirty two, Uh, 215 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: it's pretty bad. Actually the Falcons right now, Yeah, and 216 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: they're all banged up and they have yeah, they have excuses. 217 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: They're in right, and their team is not that good either. 218 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: Offensively they're ridiculous, especially at home. But I mean, you know, 219 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: the butt ranked last and past defense since Smith was 220 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: hired back in they have allowed three d plus passing 221 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: yards in all five games this year. And I don't 222 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: think that this is gonna stop us from telling you 223 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: to start baking as a sleeper. Sleeper. I mean, they're 224 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: going to have a new defensive coordinator, but they still 225 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: they still just don't have a ton of talent on 226 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: the back end of that defense. They're bad, like honestly, 227 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: and predicting football and fantasy football is hard enough, so 228 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: it's nice when occasionally we get some you know, funnies. Yeah, 229 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: and and and any slot receiver, any receiver for that matter, 230 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: that's going up against the Bucks is a layup. You're 231 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 1: gonna start him. That's why you gotta like Jarvis, even 232 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: though he kind of stunk yesterday. But I it's it's 233 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: crazy because you know, I just couldn't help but think 234 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: watching some of these games yesterday, like this is like 235 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,719 Speaker 1: the freaking Arena League, man, Like with the Patriots and 236 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 1: the Chiefs scoring all those points and Land the Buccaneers 237 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: scoring all these points. It's literally like just it's a 238 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: fantasy bananza. Every single week. You're getting big games from 239 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: your superstars, and then again you're getting some games from 240 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: some non superstars to who suddenly are going to be 241 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: valuable waiver wire pickups, not broadcasts wilder, But there are others. 242 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 1: We'll talk about this funny you can talk about, you know, 243 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: the arena football aspect of it, and you know some 244 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: of the obviously the rules changes happened to do with 245 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: and we see last night Tom Brady end up getting 246 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown where he's probably gonna be wrapped up. 247 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: But but you know, you got Britliance speaks afterwards admitting 248 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, I didn't want to get a roughie. 249 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: Feel so bad for the dude, and the ball was gone. 250 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: I didn't want to get called for roughie the passer. 251 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: I let him go. And next thing you know, Tom 252 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: Brady's running into the end zone for you know what 253 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: ends up, you know, being a big touchdown. Yeah. And 254 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: then and that saved this fantasy night too, because they 255 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: only had one passing touchdown, so he ended up I 256 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: believe with over twenty points based on that six points 257 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 1: for the rushing score. Ye. So anyway, sexually, the Bucks 258 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: have a new defense, We will have a new defensive coordinator. 259 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: We'll see how much of a difference this makes. In 260 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: the meantime, we're still gonna keep telling you to start 261 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: people against the Bucks as many times as possible. NATS 262 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: is pretty much sure everything you need to know. Joining 263 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: us on the phone right now. Fifteen year NFL veteran linebacker. 264 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 1: It stops in Cincinnati, Buffalo, Philly, San Francisco, and the 265 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: then San Diego Chargers also a couple of times All pro. 266 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: It is Tequillo Spikes, who is part of the Legends 267 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: Fantasy League.

We are doing quite well. 269 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: Excited to talk to you about this, so I mean, 270 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: let's kind of get it. You are right now as 271 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: we talking to you. You You are over in Europe. You 272 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 1: were at the London game on Sundays that correct, Yeah, Yeah, yeah, 273 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: I was. I was doing the TV broadcast with Sky 274 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: Sports over here, uh, doing the breakdowns and everything. So 275 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: I had the opportunity to cover that game yesterday and 276 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: it was pre brutal to watch. Yeah, especially if you 277 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: were a Raiders fan. To talk about Marshawn Land, She's 278 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: probably the most valuable fantasy player in Oakland right now. Boy, 279 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: he has not been able to get going over the 280 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. What did you see in that game? 281 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: I just think it's it's it's the lack of not 282 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: getting him involved earlier now. And also the problem is 283 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: even when they do want to get him involved, the 284 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: defense is so bad is that the office is forced 285 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: to try to play catch up. So it really they really, 286 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: they really lack the I wouldn't say the opportunity, but 287 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: it's hard for their all things so fond of with them. 288 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: So you're saying, so you're saying, so, you're saying that 289 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: the Raiders could have used the guy like Khalil Mack. 290 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: Question that goes that goes without saying, but um, they 291 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: really do need Khalil mac Um And I just think 292 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: he's that type of player that not only would he 293 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: upgrade your defense, but he will upgrade everybody else potential 294 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: to be able to make plays. And you don't find 295 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: a lot of players like that. Um, they come around 296 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: maybe once every ten to fifteen years. Well, let's talk 297 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: about your your fantasy lineup, because you you actually won. 298 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: I saw you. You. I know you're abroad, You're you're 299 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: busy doing stuff. You forgot to bench Davonte and Freeman, 300 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: but you figured out a way to win. Anyway, Um, 301 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: you I look at your wide receivers and between A. J. Green, 302 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd Emmanuel Sanders, Um, you know what was it 303 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: about what made you go to Tyler boy because he 304 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: was a guy that not a lot of people talked 305 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: about at the start of the year. What have you 306 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: seen in Tyler Boyd that got you excited about him? Well, 307 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: I mean he's I can't remember the records that he 308 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: set in the A C. C coming from pitt but 309 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: he's a ball And one of the things that I 310 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: do know is I covered college football too, is well, 311 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: so I get a chance to see guys in their 312 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: natural state and see how they can perform wants other 313 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: players or landon And for me just said, you know 314 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: what made me really pick him was understand me that 315 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton is consistently getting better. And I know that 316 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: teams tried to take away A. J. Green. But when 317 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: I saw the opportunity that he was there, and knowing 318 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: that they will continue to throw the ball as much 319 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: as they will as they do, I was like, this 320 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: is a no brainer because I know he can sneak 321 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: in and give me quality points when one of my 322 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: guys will be out. But he he ended up being 323 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: one of my starters. Yeah, he was great. Great matchup 324 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: two against the Steelers, who just can't stop slot receivers. 325 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: I noticed on your roster that you have two very 326 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: good quarterbacks. You have the goat, Tom Brady, and you 327 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: have Kim Newton, who's not the goat, but he's pretty good. 328 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: This week, both quarterbacks have really tough matchups. Cam is 329 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: on the road against the Eagles, while Brady is on 330 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: the road against the Bears, who just got Brock oswilerd 331 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: Which of those quarterbacks, when are you starting Week seven? 332 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: I don't know. I gotta go through my process and 333 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: really look at my homework, but I had the tendency 334 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: to look at the defenses that they're facing. You see 335 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: Cam is facing who He's on the road against the Eagles, 336 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: and they are very tough on quarterbacks at home. Yeah, 337 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 1: so um dead definitely point noted. You know the one 338 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: thing I can't say about Tom Brady, I don't care 339 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: what may happen, he will always give you. He's gonna 340 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: give you at least step te points. I don't care 341 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: how it comes, but he's just gonna find a way 342 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: to give it to you. You know, you I mean 343 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: you played in Buffalo for a number of years. That 344 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: means you ran across Tom Brady usually twice a year. 345 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: I mean, having played against him and watching him, now, 346 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 1: how much longer do you think he can play in 347 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 1: this league? I just think it's really maybe for Brady 348 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: from what he's a fish and knowing how he wants 349 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: his body of work to go. I truly just think 350 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: Brady would probably play maybe three more years from at 351 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: this point. That's why I think I think he has 352 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: that ability because you, I mean, don't look at can 353 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: Brady still play at this level what he's playing at 354 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: now or even in previous years. I look at the 355 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: talent level of quarterbacks that's playing now, and some shouldn't 356 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: even be playing, and you know, really great Brady probably 357 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: could play up to maybe five more years. You know, 358 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: he's he's just that good. Especially with this decision. Maybe wow, 359 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,239 Speaker 1: that that that would be amazing to watch consider how 360 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: well he's playing. Hey, Tekia, we appreciate the time. I 361 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: know you were off on the road on your way 362 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 1: to Switzerland, so I'll let you go appreciate it, enjoy 363 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: the trip, and the best of luck. The rest of 364 00:18:53,240 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: the fantasy alright, guys, all right Spikes for NFL lie 365 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: in back of fifteen season week and avid fantasy player 366 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: as well. I love it, man, I love hearing current 367 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 1: and former players who are into fantasy football because it 368 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: is and no matter what some people might think, fantasy 369 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: football has just done so much good for the NFL. 370 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: It's popularity and uh, not only is popularity here in 371 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: the United States, but abroad as well. Absolutely so. Things 372 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: again to te Kiyo Spikes for jumping in and chatting 373 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: with us for a little bit. Uh, the trade deadline 374 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: is coming, I believe it is. What just after week 375 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: eight I think is when when the trade deadline comes. 376 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: We still have a couple of weeks, but you're starting 377 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: to hear more names and more rumors and and no 378 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,719 Speaker 1: sort of things popping up a little bit. And uh, 379 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: our pal Chris Westling from Around the NFL wrote up 380 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 1: an article on nfl dot com. You go check it 381 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: out some listening the top ten trade candidates as we 382 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: hit the deadline. Now, obviously for them, not all of 383 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: them are offensive candidates. That are some defensive guys on there, 384 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: but for us, we're gonna look at the guys on 385 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: the offensive side of the ball obviously, and pull out 386 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: some names and kind of talk about where they could 387 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: go that could potentially help their fantasy values this year 388 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: and beyond, and even some guys that aren't necessarily on 389 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 1: West's list that that could make an impact. But the 390 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 1: first one obviously is Levian Bell. He's still you know, 391 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: as of the time we recorded this, has not shown 392 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: up to the team facility in Pittsburgh. I personally had 393 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: my own doubts as to whether or not, uh he 394 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: was actually coming back in week seven. I know that 395 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: was a report that was floating around that kind of 396 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: got the internet all in a tizzy for for a 397 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: few days. I will say that, you know, me, being 398 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: the skeptics that I am, was not quick to buy 399 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: into it. And you know, it remains to be seen. 400 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: We'll see when he shows up, If he shows up, 401 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: if he shows up before week ten, what have you. 402 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, he is still not playing football. 403 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 1: So I went through and I looked at some places 404 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: that could possibly make a deal for leve Bell. They're 405 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: the obvious complications because their salary concerns, and you know 406 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: whether or not they can resign him afterwards for however 407 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: much money he would want to stick around wherever. But 408 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: I came out with four teams, the Texans, the Titans, 409 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: the forty Niners and the Colts. Uh. They all have 410 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: they all have like good salary cap space. They all 411 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: have running back situations that you know could stand to 412 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: be upgraded a little bit. Um. And I think that 413 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 1: you know, if you are the the Steelers, for instance, 414 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: you're also they're also not in your division, so you 415 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about running into Levi on Bell 416 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: uh twice a year. So I don't know, I mean, 417 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: any one of those four teams really floats your boat 418 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: for leve to go and maybe prosper something. I mean, 419 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 1: Andy would you don't mention Philadelphia, but Philadelphia would as well. 420 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 1: I think those are the only two teams. Um. You 421 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 1: know Houston, Uh, they're they're a bit of a mess 422 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,959 Speaker 1: right now. Um Tennessee. I don't want level going to Tennessee. 423 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: That that's a dumpster fire in San Francisco's got well 424 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: for this season. At least you got c. J. Bethard. 425 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 1: So Uh. I like the matchup between him and Kyle 426 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: Shanahan in that offense because he's a pass catching running back. 427 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: But um, not for this season now. Just to go 428 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 1: back to the situation with Bell and whether or not 429 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: he's going to report, nobody knows report. And so I 430 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: was talking earlier to add Kicking Wala, who uh is 431 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: one of our great NFL Network reporters and she focuses 432 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 1: a lot on the Steelers, and what she told me 433 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 1: was that no one knows if he's going to come 434 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: in this week or not. And as of right now 435 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: at eleven thirty Pacific time on Monday, it's Monday, right, 436 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: I don't even know anymore. Uh, he's not there. And 437 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: A d D talked to one of his teammates, and 438 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: the teammates said that he thinks that maybe Levian won't 439 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 1: show up until Friday because it's so uncomfortable the whole 440 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: situation right now, that he might just wait until the 441 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: end of the week. This way he doesn't have to 442 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: deal with the locker room situation for four days. Uh, 443 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: he'll go in on Friday. But that's just a guess. 444 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 1: And that's just assuming that he is coming back this week, 445 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: because as A d D told me, quote, literally no 446 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: one has communicated with Levan Bell. He's communicated with no 447 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: one on the team, No one and apparently left Bell's 448 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: Asian only talks to Adam Schefter, and so until we 449 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,199 Speaker 1: hear something, and it might be from Adam, it might 450 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,239 Speaker 1: be from me and rapport, we don't know. No one 451 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: really knows. And at this point, and I think Ben 452 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger who made a joke that, oh well, Levi's coming back. 453 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: So James Connors is done now, and this was there. 454 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 1: There were two things I was worried about, and I 455 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: made a trade with Dave Damishek and our experts. We're 456 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 1: gonna talk about that in a second, and Marcus can say, hey, 457 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: he got over on me or whatever. But um, the 458 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: situation here and I didn't think this would be what 459 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: we were going to be encountering, but it looks like 460 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: it's going to happen. James Connor scored more Fantasy points 461 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: in his first six games this year than Left Bell 462 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: did in his first six games last year. And I 463 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: get it. Bell came back and didn't do much in 464 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks because he didn't have a 465 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: training camp in the preseason. But still, the numbers is 466 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: the numbers, okay, And James Connor is a favorite in 467 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: that lock room. They love him. They love this kid, 468 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: and so for Bill to come back, assuming he does 469 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: come back this week or next week, and remember Pittsburgh 470 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: as a bye so he wouldn't come back until week 471 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: eight against Cleveland. Do you really think that they're gonna 472 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: just give the entire workload back to Levian Bell. That 473 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: could be a situation where you're you're kind of screwing 474 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: things up in your locker room because they love James 475 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: Conner and he's balling out. They love James Connacas. James 476 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: Conner is there and right, I mean, let's let's le's 477 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: let's let's let's come back with everything that he's gone 478 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: through and the way that he is has embraced this 479 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: role and he's balling out. I mean, this guy has 480 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 1: looked great the last couple of weeks. I don't know 481 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: that Levian Bell now comes in and becomes the featured 482 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 1: back once again. I mean, that could be an issue 483 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: with the locker room. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe you're right. 484 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: Maybe lev ros for a hundred yards and boom, you know, 485 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 1: everything is forgiven. I don't know, but here's my situation 486 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: and why I decided to trade Levian Bell. I get 487 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: so many tweets from pe what do I do with Bell? 488 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: I'm tired of him sitting on my on my roster. 489 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: I can't use him. I can't put him in an 490 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: injured reserve spot. He's just eating a waste space on 491 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: my roster and I need it. There's a lot of 492 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: good free agents out there. So here's the deal that 493 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: I made with Damn Check and a lot of people 494 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: on Twitter thought I was crazy, which is fine, because 495 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: well maybe I am crazy, we'll see. But I got 496 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: tired of the whole Bell situation. I have James Conner 497 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: around that team. So I decided to trade Levin Bell 498 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: and Kenny Galladay to get back Leonard Fournett and Dalvin Cook. 499 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: And I'm glad Dalvin Cook didn't play this week because 500 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 1: I want him to be a hundred percent when he 501 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 1: comes back, because when he comes back and he's at 502 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 1: full strength, he's gonna ball and I'd be trying Bell 503 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: and Gollady Galladay and I got back for Net and 504 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. It was a risky trade for both of us. 505 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,239 Speaker 1: So here's my thought process here. Okay, with Dalvin, get 506 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: him back to I try to bylow on him right 507 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: now everywhere I could because the Vikings need him, all right. 508 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: I mean they ran the ball against the Cardinals, but 509 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: everyone runs the ball against the Cardinals. Dalvin Cook is 510 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: a difference maker in that offense, and when he's he's 511 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: gonna put up some numbers. Leonard Fournett don't know when 512 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: he's coming back. Could be this week, could be next, 513 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: We're not sure. It could be week ten, We're not sure. 514 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: But when for Nette comes back, I assume he's gonna 515 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: be pent and at that point I've got a backfield 516 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: of for Nett and Dalvin Cook for the stretch run. 517 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: Here's my issue with Levian Bell. Okay, number one, we 518 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: don't know when he's coming back. Maybe he comes back 519 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: this week, maybe he doesn't. He comes in assiming he's 520 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: back for week eight. He's playing against the Browns. Okay, 521 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: last time he came back after a holdout, and this 522 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: was a shorthold out. Last year he came back, played 523 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: the Browns and they held him in the next nothing. 524 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: Then he's got to go to Baltimore the following week, 525 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: and Baltimore's defense is nails. Right now, it's good. Then 526 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: he comes back going to play Carolina and Carolina's defense 527 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: ain't bad. I mean, you know it's not the Bucks. 528 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: Then he's got to go to Jacksonville and Jacksonville's defense, 529 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: I get it. You know, they didn't play well yesterday 530 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: against the Cowboys and Zeke ran all over him. But 531 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: that was on the road. You know, home and road guys, 532 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: there's a big friends sometimes. So Left doesn't even get 533 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 1: his good first matchup until week twelve. Okay, not that 534 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: you're sitting him, but he doesn't get his first good 535 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: matchup in week twelve. And that assumes Marcus that he's 536 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: not sharing the workload with James Conner. I just wanted 537 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: to get rid of rid of the headache. I really did, 538 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 1: and I took a risk. I have Latavius Murray in 539 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: this league too, so I'm fine at at the running 540 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: back position as it pertains to Dalvin Cook. But I'm 541 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: tired of the situation. And a couple of things that 542 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: people who I talked to about this trade said to me, 543 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: who's to say that Levan Bell doesn't come back? I'm hurt, 544 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: you know what. I'm back. I'm hurt though, I mean, 545 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: and you know what, he could get hurt because didn't 546 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: play football in a long time and suddenly leve Bell's 547 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: out of action. He's gonna crue his time, He's gonna 548 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: be a free agent next season. Boom. This was always 549 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: sort of in the range of possibilities when when you 550 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: drafted leve Bell, because I mean, obviously we we we 551 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 1: knew before the season that the holdout was was the 552 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: thing that was going to happen. Now you know it's 553 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: gonna be this the thing. We knew it was gonna 554 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: be Week ten. But you know, we always knew that 555 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: there was a possibility. And then I think once we 556 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 1: got a couple of weeks into the season and this 557 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: story about week ten came out, then suddenly I think 558 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: he really had to buckle up. And you know, I 559 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 1: go back to what you said at the beginning. No one, 560 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: no one knows, and and any report you see out there, 561 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: or any any speculation I should say that you see 562 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,479 Speaker 1: out there that says, you know, I know that love 563 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: Bell is gonna do this, and that that person is 564 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: lying to you, like unless it is Levian Bell or 565 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: his agent, that person is lying to you or or 566 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,439 Speaker 1: just trying to throw darts at the wall to figure 567 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: things out. So you are kind of in a situation 568 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: where you're sort of stuck here, and I mean, looking 569 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: at this deal one, it sort of makes me laugh 570 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: because there's a whole heap and helping of uncertainty here. Yeah, 571 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: it's a total risk on both sides. On both sides, right, 572 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: I mean, like it's funny because of the four players, 573 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: the only guy who's actually on the field I know this. Yeah, 574 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,479 Speaker 1: for me, this was a I'm expecting at least by 575 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: week ten, assuming I'm still in the race for the playoffs, 576 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: to have a backfield of Dalvin Cook and Leonard Fournett, 577 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: and I'll have James Conner also potentially as a flex starter, 578 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: depending on what happens with live Bell. I mean, if 579 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: you've got Levian Bell, I understand if you want to 580 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: try to trade him, just no, Like if you're trying 581 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: to trade him to me, I'm not going to give 582 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: you a whole lot of I'm looking at like the 583 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: fact that you got damaged to give you four Nett 584 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: and Dalvin Cook either he doesn't think much of Leonard 585 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: four nette um or or you fleeced him. I'm not 586 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: quite sure which at this point, um, because it's just 587 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: but see most of the people on Twitter, we're we're 588 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: you know, crapping on me saying that I'm stupid for 589 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: making this trade. If there's one thing I've learned about 590 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: putting out trades on Twitter, you know, half the people 591 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: will tell you that you got you you wanted to. 592 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: Half the people tell you that you got killed in it. 593 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: So you know, Twitter is no help. I know you guys, 594 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: I know you're listening to Twitter. You're no help A right, um, 595 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: So you know right now, I mean, I'm still I'm 596 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: still can get the situation. And I say, this is 597 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: somebody who doesn't have Levion Bell on any of my teams. 598 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: But I'm looking at the situation as buckle up and 599 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: get ready for week ten. I mean, and so like 600 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: if you have, if you've ridden it out this long, 601 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: you know, keep keep keep riding it out, keep waiting, 602 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: because I just don't I don't see him coming back 603 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: until a weekend. I don't know why he comes back 604 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: this week. I don't know why he comes back in 605 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: week eight all of a sudden. I mean, you know, 606 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 1: if he really is dug in on this and he's 607 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: doing it for the principal, you know he's already missed 608 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: how for many game checks? You know, I know people 609 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: on Twitter keep running this this weekly tally of how 610 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: much he's missed. By the way, it ain't your money. 611 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,719 Speaker 1: Stop worry about it, don't worry about him. He's doing 612 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: what he's gonna do. Don't try to figure it out. 613 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: But he's missed this many game checks. What's a couple 614 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: more until week ten? So you're you're sort of stuck. 615 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: I don't I wish I had a better I wish 616 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,719 Speaker 1: I had some better advice for you. Sorry about your luck. Uh, 617 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: you roll the dice and you came up snake guys 618 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: this year. So hopefully the idea is that he gets 619 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: traded to somewhere or he's gonna get a boatload of touches, 620 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: because they do think that when he comes back, James 621 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: Connor is not going away, and then you know, maybe 622 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: maybe lev is kind of the lead back there. But 623 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: I don't see that he's going to go in and 624 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: just yea because right now with with Connor um he's 625 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: getting with the snaps or something and thinking it's like that. 626 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: I don't I don't see that happening for Levian Bell. 627 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: But you know, which basically means if you've got two 628 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: running backs there, I don't know. We'll see if there's 629 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: enough enough volume for both those guys to be successful. 630 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: But I think you're gonna end up having sort of 631 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: half a running back in in in both cases, and 632 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: it's going to be frustrating. I don't know. Uh, Lashawn 633 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: McCoy speaking of frustrating. Uh, he actually, you know what 634 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: he's he's starting at the ball the last two weeks, 635 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: I know, but he's his ceiling is twelve points been so. 636 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: But I'm wondering, so is this Are they giving him 637 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: the ball because they've realized, Hey, this guy is actually good, 638 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: so let's do something. Or are they giving him the 639 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: ball to showcase him because you know, there was talk, 640 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: especially for a few days, they maybe maybe he comes 641 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: back to Philly. Dude, let him go to I known't 642 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: I know what is Corey Clement That basically was like, yeah, 643 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: we don't need anybody else here, you know, and you know, 644 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 1: credits to Clement because he went out and it had 645 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: a pretty good game against the Giants on Thursday night, 646 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: but he was basically, yeah, we don't need anybody. But 647 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know that that. I don't know 648 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: that the Eagles front office cares about that they may 649 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: try and add Lashawn McCoy because he would be a 650 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: big help to that offense. Yeah, he would, and that 651 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: would be a great landing spot for his fantasy potential 652 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: as well. Um, you know again this it would be 653 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: so much fun if we could pull off these trades 654 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: and and have these things come through for us. Um. 655 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: I remember was was the was the Clinton Porters for 656 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: Champ Bailey trade? Was that that was preseason? Right? Was 657 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: that preseason or was that in season? I don't remember. 658 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: But these fun in season trade talks that and rumors 659 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: that we have is the one thing that we that 660 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: we don't have in the NFL typically. It would be 661 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 1: a lot of fun if we saw the Shawan McCoy, 662 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: you know, go back to Philadelphia. From a fantasy perspective, 663 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: it would be tremendous. And then we'd be talking about 664 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: Chris Ivory how about that? Right? But um, the one 665 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: the one that that jumped out of me that I 666 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: saw on social media this weekend and Jay Glazer, who's dude, 667 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: he's one of the best, was the Marty Cooper one. Well, 668 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: now that I could see, Hell, if John Gruden will 669 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: trade Khalil Mack the Raiders are in tank mode. I mean, yeah, dude, 670 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: they're in tank mode. And and there's certainly some talk, 671 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: especially with the Raiders having a bye this week, that 672 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: everybody's on the block. I mean, Marity Cooper, there's talk 673 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: there a car could be on the trading block this week. 674 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think anybody there is safe. I 675 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: mean except maybe what you know, Marshawn Lynch, Marshawn Lynch, 676 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: maybe Jordia. Like if you don't hear the thing, Raider 677 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: fans are still sort of trying to rally around this 678 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: team and trying to you know, trying, especially folks in 679 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: the Bay Area, trying to like support this team as 680 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: they get ready to leave Oakland. If they deal Marshawn Lynch, 681 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: if they deal Oakland's favorite son, I think it's over. 682 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: I think the love affair is over. I just do. 683 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: I just think, you know, I hear it is like 684 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: this is the this is like the one thing that 685 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: Raider fan can kind of hold onto a kind of 686 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,479 Speaker 1: rally round. And I think even for Marshawn, I think 687 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: if he gets traded, he might just retire. I mean, 688 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: the only reason I think he came back was for 689 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: a chance to play for his hometown team, and I 690 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,919 Speaker 1: think if they ship him out somewhere, we may see 691 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: no more Marshawn Lynch. I think what little love that 692 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: the fan base still has for John Gruden right now, 693 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: because it's I know, it's rough. Um, I think that 694 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 1: goes aways. I think he's one of the guys who's safe. 695 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: But a Mari Cooper, I'm trying to I mean, there's 696 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: gotta be somewhere that Marty Cooper can go. Dallas, And 697 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: when you talk about a wide receiver getting traded someplace, 698 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: the first thing I think of it. I mean, I'm 699 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 1: a Cowboys fan, but like they are are, Alan Herns, 700 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: I love you, but our wide receiver is just not 701 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: getting the job done, I mean not doing it. I 702 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 1: can't think of anywhere else that he could go because 703 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: I think, you know, I mean, obviously they're their targets 704 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,879 Speaker 1: to be had. There's opportunity to be had in Dallas. Um. 705 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: I mean I mean could he fit in Arizona. I 706 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 1: don't know that he fits in Arizona with that offense 707 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: right now. Um. And I'm just trying to think of 708 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 1: other places that that he could go and be a fit. 709 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess there's there's talent there, right, there 710 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 1: was coming out of Alabama. He just has never shown it. 711 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: He has not had a consistent breakout season even this year. 712 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: John Cruden said that Mary Cooper was supposed to be 713 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: a big part of the offense, and now, you know, 714 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: as of last week, before last week's game, Uh, it 715 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: seemed like the blame had shifted in and John Gruden saying, well, 716 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: Mary is not getting open. You know. So I don't know, 717 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: I don't know who to believe. I don't know what 718 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: to think. I don't you know, I don't I don't 719 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: know who's that fault here. But the fact of the 720 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 1: matter is that Marity Cooper, fantasy wise, is unusable right now, 721 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: is all he says. In this offense. He's just unusable. 722 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: And obviously, you know, we hope that he's okay after 723 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 1: yesterday suffering suffering the injury, but he just can't trust him. 724 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 1: You can't trust him. There's not a rate here to trust. 725 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: You can't even trust Marshawn anymore. He had a good 726 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: start to the season, his last two games have been 727 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,839 Speaker 1: absolute stink bombs. Uh. They're going into the bye week. 728 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. But at this point there are 729 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: no Raiders that you can trust. And by the way, 730 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 1: Jared Cook, thanks for nothing. Thanks for ending up being 731 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 1: the guy that we all thought you were. The last 732 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. I'm pounding the table over here. He's 733 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 1: had two good games all year, and I get it, 734 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 1: he's seen a lot of targets and everything else. It's 735 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: still Jared freaking Cook. This is what he does to us. 736 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: Every single time he starts to get hot. We start 737 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: to think, Marcus, it's Jared Kirk. He's starting to play good. 738 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 1: I could play him on my fantasy team every week. Yeah, 739 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 1: but he came back to Earth. But after the bye, 740 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: his next two games are Indian San Francisco. Don't buy it. 741 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: Don't do it. I mean, don't do it. I know 742 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: the matchups are good, but the matchups haven't been bad. 743 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: And I don't know. The Seahawks game was tough the 744 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: week before a good matchup. Couldn't get anything done. You know, 745 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: he's still he's still the tight end for I know, 746 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: but it's two games and in the world, well, we've 747 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: had six weeks or it is, it's been on two games. 748 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, but if you look at it like 749 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski's giving you maybe two games. I mean, like, 750 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 1: you know you can get those guys. Gronk has given 751 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 1: you two games. Austin Hooper has given you one game yet, 752 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: I mean Jimmy Graham has barely done anything. Still, rather 753 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: have Jimmy, So like, I know you're knocking it. It's 754 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,439 Speaker 1: only two games, but you know fine, we are also 755 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: talking how about how many non Kelsey urts Ibron. We 756 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 1: are also talking giving you two games. We're talking about 757 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: the worst and the thinnest position in fantasy history. Right. 758 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 1: So like the fact that you're because I only give 759 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: you two games, like give me c um, I'm not 760 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 1: using giving you one game. You're a good game this 761 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 1: past we had, he's given you a game like because 762 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: he's only played two games where he's been the feature 763 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 1: tight end. I mean, so you're pulling the shoot on it, dude, 764 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: because he only gave you two games like that. There's 765 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: not a lot of guys up. Hey man. Sometimes you 766 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: gotta know when to get out of things, man, And 767 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: I'm getting out of the Jared Cook business. If I 768 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 1: could trade him, I trade him, all right. That Raiders 769 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,800 Speaker 1: Offenses is starting to turn into the dumpster fire. We 770 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: thought it was always gonna be they're gonna throw the 771 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 1: ball a lot. They're gonna throw the ball so much 772 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 1: because their defense is so bad, I know. But they 773 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: had to throw the ball a lot against the Seahawks 774 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: and they did least. Let me just they just means 775 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: start Derek Carr, but you don't mean you can't start 776 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: to cook um some other name. The Marius Thomas is 777 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: an interesting name on this list because he's been so 778 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 1: hard to figure out in Denver Um. You know, like 779 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: last week he got you got you some garbage times 780 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: two pretty good games in a row, and it was 781 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: based on garbage, top right. I mean, he had h 782 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: he ended up catching a touchdown thing late um on 783 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: Sunday against the Rams, only had fifty seven yards. I mean. 784 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 1: The thing about Damarius Thomas is that he had Okay, 785 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 1: he had the one hundred yard game two weeks ago 786 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 1: against the Jets and I as I mentioned, like forty 787 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: though he had a forty two yard touchdown late in 788 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: that game which got him there. Other than that, it's 789 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: a struggle for Damarius Thomas to get above seventy yards 790 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: receiving and if he doesn't score you a touchdown, then 791 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 1: there's just there's nothing there. He's another one the Dallas. 792 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 1: The Dallas Cowboys are an option, but the Tennessee Titans 793 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 1: maybe an option. I mean, it's not it's not a 794 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: vertical passing game that they're in there in Tennessee, right. 795 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: I mean, part of what made the mary Is so 796 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: successful for all those years in Denver, even when he 797 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,799 Speaker 1: was playing with Peyton Manning, was that Damarius Thomas would 798 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 1: take a bubble screen and get up field with it. Now, 799 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if maybe you know, is it that 800 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: he's lost the step is that the offense is different, 801 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: is that they can't get it to him in the 802 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: right situation. But the Titans seemed like that team that's 803 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: going to thrive with some of those underneath intermediate throws, 804 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,320 Speaker 1: let him get out in space and let him make plays. 805 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: And they don't really have a number one. You know, 806 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,439 Speaker 1: Corey Davis is nice, but he's obviously showing that he's 807 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 1: not ready to he's not ready to carry this offense, 808 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: to carry this passing game on his back. He's not 809 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: that guy just yet. Um, you know, I mean Taiwan Taylor, 810 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: Taj Sharp, I mean there's nobody there to really assert 811 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: themselves in the passing game. Damarius Thomas could be a 812 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: sneaky option in Tennessee. And think about this, if he 813 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: goes the whole corlt and Sutton, Oh, I mean, you know, 814 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: he's not putting up great numbers, but he's shown enough 815 00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 1: for me to consider him a potential breakout and it 816 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. I can promise you that right now, 817 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 1: even with case Keenum throwing in the football, so that 818 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: would be a win win. Courtland Sutton, definitely, I think 819 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: has has a lot of long term upside there um, 820 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: you know. And that was the reason partially that you 821 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 1: know Emmanuel Sanders has moved more to the slot this 822 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 1: year is because they like Courtland Sutton working as an 823 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: outside receiver there. So I put DeVante Parker on this list. 824 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: I don't do we really have to talk. I don't 825 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: want to talk about alright, cool uh seven Coleman because 826 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 1: I thought it was an interesting one that that West 827 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 1: wrote up in his in his article, Because isn't he's 828 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: a free agent in twenty nineteen, and Eto Smith is 829 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 1: kind of Smith is dead like Stepan, I've been playing well, 830 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 1: but because Tevin Coleman I mean, this was the guy 831 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: that when he was drafted a few years ago. Remember 832 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,240 Speaker 1: we talked about that he was going to make DeVonta 833 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: Freeman obsolete, right because DeVante Freeman wasn't drafted by the 834 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 1: previous regime. You know that that he was gonna be 835 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan's guy in the offense, and he was really 836 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,760 Speaker 1: gonna take over. And look, to his credit, Tevin Coleman 837 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: has played well when he's had his opportunity. It's just 838 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,800 Speaker 1: that Devonte Freeman has been a little bit better and 839 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 1: he's been the number one running back there. But I 840 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:03,919 Speaker 1: looked at Tevin Coleman and I thought the first place 841 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: I thought was Tevin Coleman and Tampa could be a 842 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 1: lot of fun. I mean, you know, Peyton Barber is 843 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 1: Peyton Barber, Ronald Jones. Maybe he has a future. I 844 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: don't know, but right now it's just not working because 845 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: he's still got a lot of things to learn about 846 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: that offense. In the meantime, Tevin Coleman can come in. 847 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: He can kind of be the best of both worlds. 848 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: We know he can catch the ball and be a 849 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 1: nice pass catcher out of the backfield. We know that 850 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,839 Speaker 1: he can kind of run between the tackles. He's done 851 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 1: that when Devonte Freeman hasn't been there. He can be 852 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: that straight ahead actual running back the Bucks. I mean, 853 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know what. I don't know 854 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: what Jamis Winston is. I think he's just an average 855 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: quarterback right now. But we know they've got good receivers, 856 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 1: they've got two decent tight ends. They get that running 857 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,399 Speaker 1: back in there, and suddenly this offense maybe goes next 858 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: level could be and it's it's great for fantasy purposes too, 859 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: because the offense is gonna throw the ball a ton 860 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: because the defense can't stop anybody. So the Buccaneers have 861 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: become very fantasy friendly on both sides. Their defenses. They're 862 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: giving up a lot of points. That is happening offensively, 863 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 1: they're having to throw the football. They're scoring a lot 864 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: of points because the defense can't stop anybody. Yeah, so 865 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: I had to have I also had Houston on the 866 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: list because you know, and you know, when I wrote this, 867 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 1: I sort of forgot, you know, it's been so long 868 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 1: since we see Dante Foreman. I kind of forge. Yeah, well, 869 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 1: he was one of the guys I was going to 870 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: mention on the waiver wire. Uh spot here too, and 871 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 1: maybe we could talk about him right now. Not sure 872 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,959 Speaker 1: when he's coming back, could be in the next couple 873 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: of weeks. I mean, Lamar Miller after a decent start 874 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: is not begetting the job done. You're not Alfred Blue. 875 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: You're not right, You're I mean, let's let's be honest here. 876 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,240 Speaker 1: I mean, Alfred Blue is not gonna be your feature 877 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: back so foreman who's coming off a very tough injury 878 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: to return from that achilles. I mean, if he's back 879 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 1: to he showed some flashes as a rookie. He did. Um, 880 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 1: it's been so long. I literally kind of forgot about 881 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 1: him that that he was a thing there because I 882 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, Tevin Coleman in Houston could be interesting, 883 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: but you know who knows. I mean, uh, we'll see what. 884 00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 1: And then a mirab dula. I really struggled with where 885 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: a mirror dula can go because there's no where he 886 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:04,720 Speaker 1: can get there. He's not going to be a feature 887 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 1: back anywhere, right His best case scenario is to be 888 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: a satellite back, you know, a guy who who catches 889 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 1: the ball out of the backfield. But it did make 890 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: me think Minnesota could be an interesting spot for him. Um, 891 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: you know, valvet Cook. Eventually, I think we'll get healthy 892 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 1: and and go back to being the prime back there. 893 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: But a mirror dula could be an interesting change of 894 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 1: pace in that offense. Just one more kind of outlet 895 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 1: for Kirk Cousins to get the ball to, and a 896 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 1: guy that you know, you can kind of move around 897 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: as a Swiss army knife, move around the formation and 898 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 1: have him do some interesting things. Again, I don't know 899 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: that that it's enough to you know, like I said, 900 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: he won't be a feature back, but in an offense 901 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 1: that moves the ball and scores points. I don't know. 902 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: Maybe he is Tevin Coleman light sort of in Minnesota. 903 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: You know, I'm listening to you. I'm trying to talk 904 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: myself into and you're trying to talk yourself into it, 905 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:57,359 Speaker 1: and I'm not buying what you're selling trying. Yeah, I'm 906 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 1: trying to talk myself into it. Because I looked at that, 907 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: I'm like a mirror do Like, I just don't know 908 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 1: where where he would go that that he could be 909 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 1: necessarily great. The last one I had on this list 910 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: was Jordan Howard and this is another one that I 911 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,280 Speaker 1: looked around. I'm trying to figure out where Jordan Howard 912 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: could go that would enhance his value more than it 913 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 1: is now. And I came to the conclusion that, like 914 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: he's the guy who just stay put. Yeah, you know, 915 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 1: like I don't know that there's a better situation for 916 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Howard than what he will have in Chicago. And 917 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: you know, like he after that first week, he hasn't 918 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 1: been the pass catcher. You know, he caught a lot 919 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 1: of passes the first week, and I thought, oh man, 920 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:32,919 Speaker 1: this is a new Jordan Howard. It's gonna be great. 921 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 1: And really, since then, it hasn't really happened. And there 922 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 1: aren't there just aren't. There aren't a lot of teams 923 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 1: that are in the market right now for you know, 924 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 1: a two down, straight pure runner, like just offenses just 925 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 1: don't work like that anymore. So I think I think 926 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 1: staying in Chicago is probably the best thing for him. Yeah, 927 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: and hopefully, you know, we talked about this on the 928 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 1: TV side and Maurice Jones Drew said that, you know, 929 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: Joho is going to be the guy that they're gonna 930 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 1: get the football too when he gets called. I hope so, 931 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,320 Speaker 1: because right now, his Fantasy points have gone cold, and 932 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: Tariko and has been a far better PPR producer uh 933 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 1: than an even standard leade producer, uh than Jordan Howard 934 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 1: and Jordan Howard. And I know this because I put 935 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: him in start him and sid him, because he's had 936 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,360 Speaker 1: some really good matchups the last couple of weeks and 937 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 1: he has not exploited either one of them, either one 938 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 1: of them that's been frustrated. Just quick note here, Um, 939 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 1: we're hearing on social media that Randall Cobb and Geronimo 940 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,359 Speaker 1: Allison are likely to be inactive for the Niners game. 941 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 1: So if you're listening to us before the game, you're 942 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 1: going with Marquees scantlings. I mean we get SP two. 943 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,399 Speaker 1: I just like, yeah, I feel like, you know, it's 944 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 1: like it's very sp I'm I'm I want to will it. 945 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 1: I want to will it.

This 981 00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 1: is this is the this is your brain child here 982 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: fast right there. Man, I always come up with the 983 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,919 Speaker 1: stinker and and there were a bunch of them this week, 984 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:42,320 Speaker 1: but I've whittled it down to six stinkers. And Marcus 985 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 1: is going to tell you whether or not you should 986 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 1: play them next week despite their well order, right, or 987 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 1: if it's time to trade or cut them. And I'm 988 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 1: gonna start off with Jared Goff. This guy stinks. Obviously 989 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 1: you're not trading them. Obviously you're not cutting them. The 990 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,400 Speaker 1: guy has been pretty good, but his last week games 991 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,240 Speaker 1: kind of stuck a little bit. Seven point four Fantasy 992 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 1: points against the Broncos. He's going up against the Niners 993 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,319 Speaker 1: coming up. I think I know where you're going here, market, Yeah, 994 00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 1: you're starting Jared Goff again. I mean, ye, last week 995 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 1: was not great. It was a kind of a hiccup, 996 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 1: like you know what it's in basketball. They called a 997 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: heat check, right like everything was going well. Um, you 998 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 1: know when when any basically any non Steph Curry type 999 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: shooter is getting hot and then you launched one from 1000 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: like most of the way to half court just to 1001 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 1: see how hot you really are, and you know, maybe 1002 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 1: it goes in and things are great. Generally it done. 1003 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: So I thought last week, I think for fantasy managers 1004 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: was kind of a Jared Goff heat check. He had 1005 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 1: been so good and I thought, even on the road 1006 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 1: against the Broncos, it'll be cold and maybe snowy, whatever, 1007 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,920 Speaker 1: I'll start Jared Goff. Yeah it didn't quite work, actually, 1008 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:47,400 Speaker 1: you know what. So I meant to put him in 1009 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 1: my lineup, and at the last minute I got a 1010 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: change of heart and I went with Kirk Cousins instead. 1011 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: And Cousins wasn't great, but he had the rushing touchdown. 1012 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 1: He wasn't great, but he was better than Golf, So 1013 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,359 Speaker 1: that's sort of that sort of worked out. But next 1014 00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 1: weekends the Niners I started. Yeah, uh, let's stick with 1015 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,919 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. And that odor that you saw coming 1016 00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 1: from Houston's offense was Deshaun Watson. He stinks five point 1017 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:14,800 Speaker 1: three fantasy points, a guy that most people were starting 1018 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 1: against the Bills, whose defense is actually underrated. Yep, but 1019 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: Watson's got the Jaguars coming up on the road. Marcus Grant, 1020 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:26,959 Speaker 1: is Watson in your lineup in week seven? I can't 1021 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: do it? Next week? I can't, you know. And so 1022 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:33,920 Speaker 1: what's what's been kind of amazing about Deshaun Watson is 1023 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,880 Speaker 1: that fantasy wise, he's been putting up really good numbers 1024 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,320 Speaker 1: despite the fact that Houston's offense as a whole hasn't 1025 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 1: really done much of anything, I mean offensively. I mean, 1026 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 1: I tweeted this that if you're a defense, your strategy 1027 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: against the Texans is just to let them get inside 1028 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,279 Speaker 1: the five yard line and then watch them throw up 1029 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:52,480 Speaker 1: on their shoes. That's kind of how it has been working, 1030 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 1: I mean. And the other part of it is Watson 1031 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 1: is throwing way more picks. And we knew this, I mean, 1032 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:00,400 Speaker 1: this was the this was the figure coming into the season, 1033 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 1: but he was gonna throw a lot more interceptions. He 1034 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:05,920 Speaker 1: has had at least one in every game. He had 1035 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: two on Sunday. Uh. And then on top of it, 1036 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,479 Speaker 1: what really hurt was a hundred seventy seven passing yards. 1037 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:14,239 Speaker 1: I think he fumbled once. Uh, he was sacked a 1038 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 1: bunch of times, which the offensive line is really struggling 1039 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 1: to uh shuring strangers move the ball consistently. So, yeah, 1040 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 1: this is a week, especially with the Jaguars getting embarrassed 1041 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 1: last week against the Cowboys National TV Games promo game. Yeah, 1042 00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 1: they get to come back home. I I cannot. I 1043 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 1: just I can't do it this week with Deshaun Watson 1044 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 1: and you know who knows that may be proven wrong. 1045 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, coming back next Monday with egg 1046 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: on my face. But right now, I think I'm looking 1047 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:45,839 Speaker 1: for another option alright, running back position. We've talked about 1048 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 1: him already a couple of times. Jordan Howard four point 1049 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 1: nine PPR points, had that bad fumble. Tore Cohen is 1050 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 1: lapping him in fantasy points the last two games. He's 1051 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: got the Patriots at home. What do you do one? 1052 00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:04,360 Speaker 1: I think I'm starting Jordan Howard, but I'm not liking it. Like, 1053 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,080 Speaker 1: I'm not excited about it, um, nor should you be. Yeah, 1054 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 1: I mean just the matchups not great. Howard has not 1055 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: played great, um, But he is still in theory the 1056 00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 1: primary back. He is the lead back there in Chicago, 1057 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 1: and he's gonna get most of the snaps and he's 1058 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,760 Speaker 1: gonna get at least a good portion of the running 1059 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:23,839 Speaker 1: back touches. And you know, I still think there's there's 1060 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 1: always sort of that that decent size game coming. And 1061 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 1: here's the like last week, Yeah against the Dolphins. Yeah, 1062 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 1: the numbers weren't great. He had a fumble, which wasn't good. 1063 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 1: If he scores a touchdown, it sort of changes the 1064 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: complexion of his day. At least he get you to 1065 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 1: double digits a little bit. So I'm not excited about it, 1066 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 1: But I do think I played Jordan Howard next player. 1067 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 1: And this one hurts Royce. This guy stinks who I 1068 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 1: absolutely loved coming into the season, and he's been as 1069 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,640 Speaker 1: stinker almost every single week. His last two games, he 1070 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,719 Speaker 1: has failed to score a come ten PPR points two 1071 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 1: point two against the Rams. Philip Lindsay is now the 1072 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: guy in Denver, but Thursday Night Football Marcus Grant against 1073 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals. Four teams on a buy, Are you 1074 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,920 Speaker 1: starting Royce Freeman? Are you gonna let him stick in 1075 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,240 Speaker 1: the trash? And I'm not starting. I'm not starting because 1076 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 1: they're just there just aren't enough touches for him in 1077 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: this offense right now. And maybe, I mean, look, the 1078 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,319 Speaker 1: Cardinals run defense is not good, right, It's terrible. They 1079 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 1: were they were gashed by Latavius Murray on Sunday um 1080 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: and so I mean that that should be encouraging, But 1081 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I would need a pledge 1082 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 1: from Vance Joseph that that Royce Freeman is going to 1083 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 1: get more than you know, eight or nine touches in 1084 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:49,359 Speaker 1: the game. Like I can't. I can't live with him 1085 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:51,680 Speaker 1: just getting nine carries and hoping that he does something 1086 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 1: big with that when I could find somebody else either 1087 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 1: on my bench or on the waiver wire that is 1088 00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 1: probably going to get more opportunity on any given week, 1089 00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:02,279 Speaker 1: even with four teams on a bye. I mean, this 1090 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,239 Speaker 1: has been obviously Philip Lindsay's backfield for the most part, 1091 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: but seeing a lot of Devontae Booker too, I mean, 1092 00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:09,920 Speaker 1: he's getting so much work that I can't do it. 1093 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 1: This week hot free agent. This week he's cutting Freeman. Ah, yeah, 1094 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,319 Speaker 1: probably I cut him in our league. Yeah, I mean, 1095 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,360 Speaker 1: it hurt to hit submit, but I had to do it. 1096 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 1: And I would guess he's gonna sit there for a while. 1097 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 1: Somebody already picked him up and started him. Look at 1098 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,239 Speaker 1: that and didn't work out too well. He's look at that. 1099 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald, he stinks. Who I mean. We haven't talked 1100 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 1: about him much, but he's been one of the biggest 1101 00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 1: buston fantasy football this season. And I hate to say 1102 00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,919 Speaker 1: it because I love Larry fitz I love watching him play. 1103 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,759 Speaker 1: He's not getting the opportunities. He has been an absolute 1104 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:45,640 Speaker 1: stink bomb so far. Thursday Night Football against the Broncos. 1105 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,440 Speaker 1: Are you starting him? And should you consider cutting him? 1106 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 1: I'm not starting him. And maybe, I mean, maybe it's 1107 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 1: sentimentality that says I shouldn't cut him, Like maybe maybe 1108 00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 1: just all the all good times we've had together, all 1109 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:03,399 Speaker 1: the all the love, all the fun. That's it really 1110 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,400 Speaker 1: is the nostalgia because I think, and I said this, 1111 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 1: I think a couple of weeks ago. Um, if you 1112 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,240 Speaker 1: took the name off the back of the jersey. He's 1113 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 1: he's dropped. Yeah, oh dude, there's no doubt about it. 1114 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 1: If you took the name off the back of the jersey, 1115 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,800 Speaker 1: if it was just you know whatever. Uh, you know, 1116 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:22,759 Speaker 1: wide receiver Jones. Um, you're cutting him. He put you 1117 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 1: put him on the waiver wire. I mean you look 1118 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:28,840 Speaker 1: at the last his last five games combined has a 1119 00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty nine receiving yards combine. He had a 1120 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,680 Speaker 1: game with two catches for nine yards against the Bears. Like, 1121 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:37,960 Speaker 1: there's no way, there's no way I can start him 1122 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,920 Speaker 1: against the Denver Broncos. And you know you've got You've 1123 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: got Josh Rosen and who I think. I think Josh 1124 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,439 Speaker 1: Rosen has a nice future ahead of him. But teams 1125 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:48,720 Speaker 1: are just bringing the house. They're bringing so much pressure 1126 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: on Rosen and forcing him to make quick decisions and 1127 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:53,319 Speaker 1: get the ball out. And more often than not, Josh 1128 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,719 Speaker 1: Rosen is that guy who's just like it, I'm going deep. 1129 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,400 Speaker 1: So like when things getting crazy, he's not looking for 1130 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,879 Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald, He's looking down the few for Christian Kirk, 1131 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 1: for Ricky Seals Jones. So I'm definitely not playing him. 1132 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:06,759 Speaker 1: And now I've pretty much just talked myself into putting 1133 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:10,480 Speaker 1: him on waivers. All right, last last one and I'm 1134 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,880 Speaker 1: gonna switch it up here. Um, this wide receiver started 1135 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: the season thirteen points, nineteen points, thirteen points, twenty points, 1136 00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 1: nine points, and this past weekend four point eight points. 1137 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 1: That's a stinker. I'm talking about John Brown, who Michael Crabtree. Uh, basically, well, 1138 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,920 Speaker 1: people who started Brown and bench crab Tree, we're not 1139 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,879 Speaker 1: really happy because Crabtree finally did what we all thought 1140 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,840 Speaker 1: he was going to do more often in Baltimore. And 1141 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,880 Speaker 1: that's give us a boatload of fantasy points. Right. Brown's 1142 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 1: got the Saints in Baltimore this week, good matchup. Do 1143 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,319 Speaker 1: you trust John Brown? Yeah? I do. I still believe 1144 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 1: in Smokey. I mean, he's he's been really good. Yeah. 1145 00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 1: And you know, obviously Sunday Sunday was the Michael Crabtree day, 1146 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:56,800 Speaker 1: and you know sometimes that happens and you know whatever, 1147 00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,840 Speaker 1: But um, I still believe in Brown. And forget what 1148 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,800 Speaker 1: we saw from Washington against the Saints, you know on 1149 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 1: Monday Night a couple of weeks ago or last week. 1150 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 1: I guess, um, you can you can still beat this defense. 1151 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,399 Speaker 1: You can still beat this defense deep that's what that's 1152 00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,680 Speaker 1: what Brown likes to do. We know that Flacco likes 1153 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 1: to get the ball downfield, so I'm fine with it. 1154 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,920 Speaker 1: I think he bounces back. Um, Sunday was just one 1155 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,440 Speaker 1: of those things that happens. It's it's frustrating, but it's 1156 00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 1: just one of those things that happens. I'm cool with him. 1157 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:26,200 Speaker 1: There you go, there you go. Alright, So those are 1158 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:29,799 Speaker 1: our stinkers for week six heading into week seven. Wow. 1159 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:33,200 Speaker 1: Week seven, that's kind of wild. It's just just just 1160 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:37,400 Speaker 1: as wild. Before we finish up, we'll go to our 1161 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 1: our waiver wire picks for the week because again, as 1162 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:43,600 Speaker 1: we mentioned, four teams on a bye this week, and 1163 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 1: so you've got some really big names that aren't playing 1164 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: this week. Who's who are who workings on Ay? We've 1165 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:54,239 Speaker 1: got the Packers, so that means Steelers Stealers are on 1166 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 1: a BIB, Raiders the Raiders are on So what means 1167 00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:01,320 Speaker 1: you mean you got three really big name quarterback I 1168 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:04,239 Speaker 1: guess four kind of big name quarterbacks. Uh, you've got 1169 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,719 Speaker 1: some running backs with you know, no James Conner. Uh, 1170 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know if do we consider Aaron 1171 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:13,640 Speaker 1: Jones a big name running back? Right? Now Marshawn Lynch, 1172 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,600 Speaker 1: Chris Carson. Uh, so we've got we've got some one. 1173 00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 1: I'm saying, we've got some quality guys. You know. No 1174 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown or Juju Smith Schuster, no Davante Adams, nothing 1175 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: like that. So the waiver wire is gonna be important 1176 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 1: this week. Um. The first two names talking about running backs, 1177 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 1: Corey Clement, Windell Smallwood. Both those guys are productive, and 1178 00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: I don't know that there's a clear lead back there necessary. 1179 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 1: I mean, small Wood started, Clement kind of had the 1180 00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 1: slightly better day. But both these guys seem like they're 1181 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,400 Speaker 1: kind of viable, right Yeah. I like Clement better. Um, 1182 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:46,360 Speaker 1: and he was a guy that we had had talked 1183 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 1: about picking up last week. UM. And Clement came in 1184 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 1: and had a good game, uh on Thursday night football. 1185 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 1: So he's the target there. But I will say this, 1186 00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 1: when we look at the quarterbacks, there are and and 1187 00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:05,160 Speaker 1: I mentioned this already. You've got Brady in Chicago, Okay, 1188 00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: bad matchup. You've got Breeze in Baltimore. That's a bad matchup. 1189 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 1: You got Cam Newton in Philadelphia. Look at the numbers. 1190 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 1: Quarterbacks stink in Philadelphia. Look at the numbers. You've got 1191 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 1: the Shawn Watson, we talked about him in Jacksonville. That's 1192 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,560 Speaker 1: a bad matchup. Uh. In London, we've got the Chargers 1193 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:23,680 Speaker 1: in the Titans, the Titans defense and that bad against 1194 00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. Bad matchup. So you may be looking at 1195 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 1: the waiver wire and a couple of guys and listen, 1196 00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 1: do with it what you will. Okay, I'm not telling 1197 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:34,520 Speaker 1: you to play any of these guys over Tom Brady. 1198 00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:37,480 Speaker 1: He's Tom Brady, okay, but the matchups are bad. Um. 1199 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 1: But Andy Dalton is still not owned in enough leagues 1200 00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:42,920 Speaker 1: and he's playing the Chiefs, and we talked about that 1201 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,480 Speaker 1: game got moved. So you'll be able to watch the 1202 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 1: red Rifle maybe a cruim fantasy points for your team 1203 00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:52,440 Speaker 1: on national television. Mr Robiskie two games, nine touchdown passes 1204 00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:56,800 Speaker 1: against the Patriots in Chicago. Guy hasn't looked too bad 1205 00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 1: so far. Uh, in the last couple of weeks. I 1206 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 1: want to go and I'm not at I want to 1207 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:02,640 Speaker 1: go back and watch tis like I mean, I'm still 1208 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,960 Speaker 1: like not a total believer in but I mean, okay, 1209 00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 1: now this one here, Marcus again, if you tweet me 1210 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:12,240 Speaker 1: and say you started this guy over Tom Brady or 1211 00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,720 Speaker 1: any of the other big name quarterbacks I mentioned. I'm 1212 00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 1: gonna block you because I'm not telling you to do that. 1213 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,480 Speaker 1: All I'm telling you is that Eli Manning has a 1214 00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 1: good matchup this week. Okay, look at all the carterbacks Atlanta. 1215 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,320 Speaker 1: Look at all the quarterbacks that I've gone to. Atlanta 1216 00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:29,360 Speaker 1: put up monster numbers, the monster numbers, and I get it. 1217 00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 1: Eli Manning. Oh my god, that kids start. Eli Manning's terrible. 1218 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:37,200 Speaker 1: I'm starting to do my rankings for starting to garback rankings, 1219 00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:39,320 Speaker 1: and I looked at that, I'm like, where do you 1220 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 1: put them? Where do you put them? I think I think, preliminarily, 1221 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 1: I think I've got him somewhere around like fifteen. Here's 1222 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 1: the thing. Here's the thing. Okay, so he's had two 1223 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 1: games with nineteen or more points and then the rest 1224 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: of him all kind of sucked. But I mean, Atlanta 1225 00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,080 Speaker 1: is terrible, and you know, the Giants are gonn be 1226 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:03,120 Speaker 1: behind this game, and all he's gotta do and he 1227 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:05,400 Speaker 1: should do it. Throw the damn Paul to Odell Beckham Jr. 1228 01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:07,920 Speaker 1: And let him make plays. Okay, enough of that, and 1229 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:09,919 Speaker 1: I love say Kwan Barkley, and I love the dump offs, 1230 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 1: trust me, I have them in a couple of leagues. 1231 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: I'm digging the fantasy points. I mean, the Giant's got 1232 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:15,520 Speaker 1: to open this offense up a little bit, and this 1233 01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:18,080 Speaker 1: is a perfect opportunity to do it against a defense 1234 01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 1: that's ravaged by injuries, that is getting whipped every single 1235 01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 1: time they get out there, every single time, especially at home. 1236 01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:27,560 Speaker 1: You know, especially at home. We keep saying that they 1237 01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 1: should and I agree that they should, but they don't. 1238 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 1: What if they can't, I don't know. I mean, like 1239 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,800 Speaker 1: I know Eddy doesn't want to talk about this one, 1240 01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:38,400 Speaker 1: but what if Eli just can't throw the ball down. 1241 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 1: All I'm saying is that he's got a good matchup. 1242 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 1: And and Baker Mayfield, who probably isn't available, but you know, 1243 01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 1: maybe he is. He's got a good matchup this week 1244 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:51,320 Speaker 1: against Tampa Bay. So there there's some lesser quarterbacks with 1245 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 1: pretty decent matchups. Flacco against Saints, I mean pretty decent matchup. 1246 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 1: So these are some of the guys that you could 1247 01:00:57,320 --> 01:00:58,880 Speaker 1: be picking them off the waiver wire. Moving back to 1248 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 1: the running back position, I I get it. The Colts 1249 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 1: backfield there is a disaster and it's a headache, but 1250 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 1: Marlon mack led them in touches and Jim r say, 1251 01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 1: you know whatever he said about him being fifteen hundred 1252 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 1: yard guy, but he's not a feature back, but he's 1253 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: getting touches. And after Nahem Haines dropped that touchdown pass 1254 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 1: right in his bread basket against the Jets, he didn't 1255 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,000 Speaker 1: really do much of anything after that. We talked about 1256 01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,040 Speaker 1: Eto Smith as a waiver wire pick up at the 1257 01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 1: running back position. Frank Gore's gonna live forever. He will 1258 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:29,440 Speaker 1: not go away. In fact, he's been better than Kenyan 1259 01:01:29,520 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 1: Drake in some weeks and this week was one of them. 1260 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,040 Speaker 1: Thirty five year old dude runs for a hundred yards. 1261 01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 1: First running back to do that against the Bears this season. 1262 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,480 Speaker 1: Go figure, that's the NFL. But Frank Gore deserves to 1263 01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:41,479 Speaker 1: be on a roster. If you're hurting at the running 1264 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 1: back position, he's getting the duches. I mean him and 1265 01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:47,400 Speaker 1: Drake basically splitting touches right down the middle. Dodger Freeman. 1266 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 1: This is sort of a Ada and Stash kind of guy. 1267 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,040 Speaker 1: See what happens. You know, if Miller can't do it, 1268 01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 1: we don't think Alfred Blue is gonna do it. Maybe 1269 01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 1: Foreman ends up being the guy there, uh for for 1270 01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:01,720 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans at WIDERUS fiver. Right, Albert Wilson is 1271 01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:03,800 Speaker 1: an easy one. Just had a huge game, right, easy one. 1272 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know that he's doing that again, not, 1273 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 1: but he's had a couple of big games. Mark, he 1274 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 1: has had a couple of big games. And you know, 1275 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,520 Speaker 1: I love I love sounding the bird alert, right, I 1276 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 1: love doing that way whatever whenever he makes a big play, 1277 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 1: love hitting it on Twitter. I love the fact that 1278 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:18,400 Speaker 1: it's kind of taken off and become a thing of 1279 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:20,040 Speaker 1: his own, that the bird alert is a thing. But 1280 01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:23,480 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he's had some big games. He's had 1281 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 1: two huge games. He had too, and he had he 1282 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 1: had two long touchdowns, both of which were like three 1283 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 1: yard pass him and he turned him. And it's like, 1284 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 1: that's such a hard way to live. It is like, 1285 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,080 Speaker 1: and I really do, in my heart of hearts want 1286 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 1: Albert Wilson to be a thing. It's just such a 1287 01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:40,960 Speaker 1: hard way to live, especially because the Dolphins secondary has 1288 01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:43,880 Speaker 1: been pretty good. Shocking they're they're they're not good against 1289 01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:46,160 Speaker 1: the run, but they're they're pretty good against the past. 1290 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 1: So sticking with the wide receiver theme Taylor Gabriel. He's 1291 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 1: miss his guy man two games and ago he's been 1292 01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 1: his guys so like you know, and Alan rom has 1293 01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,440 Speaker 1: had a good game, But I mean, Gabriel, is this 1294 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:01,000 Speaker 1: guy there? Christian Kirk, he talked about him. There's there. 1295 01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: There should be no league where Christian Kirk is not 1296 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 1: owned and Larry Fitzgerald is. They should either both be 1297 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:06,960 Speaker 1: owned or if it should be on the waiver wire. 1298 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,320 Speaker 1: Look at the numbers. Um, here, here's a couple of 1299 01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:13,040 Speaker 1: tight ends which we all need. Some people may have 1300 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,280 Speaker 1: dropped O. J. Howard. Remember the initial report on him 1301 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:16,960 Speaker 1: was that he was gonna miss several weeks, and some 1302 01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:19,440 Speaker 1: people may have sort of raid dropped him. He could 1303 01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,200 Speaker 1: be out there potentially. We've talked about Austin Hooper for weeks. 1304 01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:24,720 Speaker 1: He shouldn't be out there. Maybe he is. C. J 1305 01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 1: Usuma uh Usama. See I got it right and then 1306 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,560 Speaker 1: I still screwed it up. Usama. He could still be 1307 01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:33,040 Speaker 1: out there as well, playing the Chiefs this week. Um 1308 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,440 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram, people dropped him. He's actually I'm in ten 1309 01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:39,320 Speaker 1: leagues he's available, and maybe two or three of them 1310 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 1: he's getting close to coming back. That's getting close to Yeah, 1311 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:45,640 Speaker 1: he's been out for a while. Um and and don't 1312 01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 1: laugh at me, Marcus, Okay, don't laugh at me, Eddie, 1313 01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:52,800 Speaker 1: don't laugh. But look on your waiver wider to see 1314 01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 1: if Greig Zerline and Will Let's are out there. Okay, 1315 01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:58,320 Speaker 1: I don't care. I get kickers, you know, people want 1316 01:03:58,360 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 1: to crap on him or whatever. They're part of the 1317 01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 1: game game, They're part of what makes you a good 1318 01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:06,840 Speaker 1: fantasy team, especially if you have Greg's airline, because Greg's 1319 01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,520 Speaker 1: airline could give you a fifteen points like almost every 1320 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 1: other week. A guy is that good behind that offense. 1321 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 1: Why do you think everyone's been rushing to pick up 1322 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:17,439 Speaker 1: Cairo Santos Why it's not because he's anything good. It's 1323 01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:19,480 Speaker 1: because he's playing for the Rams and a lot of 1324 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 1: people drop his air line because he's been out for 1325 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:24,600 Speaker 1: several weeks. He's getting close, getting close, and the second 1326 01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:26,520 Speaker 1: he is out there, he needs to be owned across 1327 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:28,520 Speaker 1: the board and Will LUTs because there's a lot of 1328 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:30,959 Speaker 1: people out there, and I get it, they don't want 1329 01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:33,200 Speaker 1: to have two kickers on their team. I get it. 1330 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,440 Speaker 1: So they dropped a guy who's on a buy but 1331 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:38,640 Speaker 1: Will lots has been like one of the two or 1332 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,040 Speaker 1: three best kickers in fantasy football the first four or 1333 01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:43,240 Speaker 1: five weeks of the season. He's and he's playing behind 1334 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 1: an offense that's gonna give him opportunities. So crap on 1335 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,280 Speaker 1: me all you want. I'm not gonna talk about kickers 1336 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 1: very much, but I am telling you when you've got 1337 01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:53,320 Speaker 1: a lead options and there are a lead kickers, Gregg's 1338 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 1: are a line and will lots if they're out there, 1339 01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 1: I pick them up very sneakily. By the way, if 1340 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 1: you're looking at kickers, um Kimi Fairbar Yeah, and Jason 1341 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 1: Meyers too. Both of those guys were in my starting 1342 01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:08,760 Speaker 1: section section this week. The Texans don't score touch downs 1343 01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:12,200 Speaker 1: and you've got to look at that too. Okay, all right, 1344 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:13,959 Speaker 1: maybe we're gonna talk a little bit more about kickers 1345 01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:17,840 Speaker 1: than I thought. Jesson Meyers at twenty four points and 1346 01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:21,160 Speaker 1: Guess kows Kid twenty one and Brett Mayra twenty and 1347 01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:25,000 Speaker 1: Butt Kicker had sixteen. I mean, some of the best 1348 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:27,840 Speaker 1: players in fantasy football didn't do that this week, So 1349 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 1: don't tell me. Kicker and Jake Seeley, I know if 1350 01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 1: you're listening, I love you, bro, But kickers can matter sometimes, 1351 01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,160 Speaker 1: and this is why you need to pay attention to 1352 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,440 Speaker 1: what's going on at this position, because we get it. 1353 01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:39,920 Speaker 1: You know, Tucker and Guskowski, you know in Zerily, all 1354 01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:42,560 Speaker 1: these guys are great. Jason Meyers is the highest scoring 1355 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:44,800 Speaker 1: kicker in fantasy football right now. Brett is it Brett 1356 01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:47,720 Speaker 1: mayor or my I don't know the Cowboys kicker like 1357 01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 1: John Mayer. Okay, he's second Fantasy points right now. I 1358 01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 1: can't pronounce fair Bands whatever whatever that guy Amy Fairband. 1359 01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:59,520 Speaker 1: I mean he's top four right now, he's top four, 1360 01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 1: so you know, listen, it's poor points is points right, 1361 01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,120 Speaker 1: market points is fring points don't matter if it's cover 1362 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 1: from a kicker, quarterback points points. So I'm done with 1363 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 1: my kicker diet tribe. All right there it is. That 1364 01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 1: pretty much wraps up the waiver wire.
