Speaker 1: because fantasy football drafts are upon us as we go
Speaker 1: into the holiday weekend. A lot of people are drafting,
Speaker 1: a lot of people have questions. We were going position
Speaker 1: by position. I was giving you tight end diamonds in
Speaker 1: the rough yesterday, and there were so many callers that
Speaker 1: I didn't get to all of the diamonds. I got
Speaker 1: a couple of deep sleepers going you can get at
Speaker 1: any point in time in your draft, and I think
Speaker 1: they might return top twelve, top fifteen tight end value
Speaker 1: for you. I'm gonna give you who those guys are
Speaker 1: later on in the show. Also, tonight is week four
Speaker 1: of the preseason. Remember how Week three was the dress rehearsal, Well,
Speaker 1: tonight week four. The starters very rarely play at all,
Speaker 1: so they're trying to conserve them, keep them in bubble
Speaker 1: wraps so they could be ready where the NFL season
Speaker 1: kicks off one week from today. What that means, will
Speaker 1: everybody stay healthy? We'll see. There's still a couple of
Speaker 1: things that I would look for here in week four.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that as well. You know, we're here
Speaker 1: live at Studio thirty four Rock and Riley's here in

Speaker 1: the a f C West, the NFC West, and he's
Speaker 1: gonna follow suit because he's on Fantasy Freestyle. He's gonna

Speaker 1: some of his full gazees. And then later on, as
Speaker 1: you know, we put the fun in Functional Sports ray video,
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about other championships that have been crowned.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about why there may be some karma

Speaker 1: and twos. You heard that I'm gonna have Nick on
Speaker 1: from l A. It looks like you trying to promote
Speaker 1: a little East Coast West Coast beef. I don't know.
Speaker 1: We are a little Biggie and tuploc action. Listen, if
Speaker 1: you want to holler at me all hours, you can
Speaker 1: at ate four four eight, four, three, six, eight seven nine.
Speaker 1: And it sounds like the phone lines are hot, like
Speaker 1: liquid hot magma right off the top. I couldn't get
Speaker 1: to all my tape diamonds in the rough. Yes, hopefully
Speaker 1: I got to them today, but you know I want
Speaker 1: to hear from you as well. Hey Christiness, it sounds
Speaker 1: like our first caller tonight is Gary in Rochester. He's
Speaker 1: got a question about hashtag beast mode on the Oakland Raiders.
Speaker 1: Hey Gary, what's going on? You're dropping stats over beats?
Speaker 1: It's the fantasy freestyle you're on with speeds. What's up? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I was wondering if like third Allen and Marshawn Lynch
Speaker 1: Week one, Keenan Allen or Marshawn Lynch in your flex spot. Well,
Speaker 1: let's first of all look at these matchups. Right, you
Speaker 1: got the Oakland Raiders. They are going to Tennessee right
Speaker 1: whereas the Chargers are going to Denver on Monday day night.
Speaker 1: You talk about Keenan Allen going up against the Chargers
Speaker 1: in Denver on Monday night, that crowd is gonna be hyped.
Speaker 1: And you know, the Denver secondary is truly elite. With
Speaker 1: Chris Harris Junior would have keep to leave as well.
Speaker 1: I would say that that does not help the matchup
Speaker 1: for Keenan Allen and because of that, I would go
Speaker 1: with beast mode. Given those two choices, UM receivers don't
Speaker 1: farewell against the Denver Broncos secondary, and unfortunately that is
Speaker 1: the matchup for Keenan Allen in Week one. Thank you
Speaker 1: for the call, Gary and Rochester. We got another call.
Speaker 1: It is right here in New York. Dan in New
Speaker 1: York got a general question about the different conferences as
Speaker 1: it relates to Fantasy. What's going on, Dan, You're on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle with Speeds? Well, yeah, I have a
Speaker 1: question and then I have something to add answer it.
Speaker 1: What's up? Um? Well, which team? Um? You know, which
Speaker 1: fancy could be better? Overall? That's kind of tough to say,
Speaker 1: you know, when you talk about it, like which conference
Speaker 1: will be better, because fantasy football is so much about
Speaker 1: individual playoffs and players and matchups, like consider it this way,
Speaker 1: Consider it this way. The Jacksonville Jaguars were horrible two
Speaker 1: years ago, you know, winning four, five or six games,
Speaker 1: Yet Blake Bortles and although garbage time points, was able
Speaker 1: to be an effective fantasy football player. Right, teams that
Speaker 1: are great team it's all about the game flow. There
Speaker 1: are some teams that are great. If they're winning by
Speaker 1: twenty one point in the second half, you know what
Speaker 1: they're gonna do. Run the ball and try and run
Speaker 1: out the clock. So if you have a wide receiver
Speaker 1: from some great team, you know, some team like let's say,
Speaker 1: let's say the New England Patriots, right, But the New
Speaker 1: England Patriots, when they're up in the second half of games,
Speaker 1: they're gonna run the ball. That's why guys like Garrett
Speaker 1: Blunt were so great with them in that context. So
Speaker 1: it's really hard to say. I would say that the
Speaker 1: most dynamic offenses in the NFL are still the Green
Speaker 1: Bay Packers, the New Orleans Saints, the Pittsburgh Steelers, the
Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons, and the New England Patriots. Those are three
Speaker 1: NFC teams to a f C teams. But it's so
Speaker 1: hard because player by player you really need to know
Speaker 1: the teams. You need to know the matchups, and the
Speaker 1: key is you need to know the game flow that
Speaker 1: you expect what will be happening, who will be up,
Speaker 1: who will be down. So it's a tough thing to say,
Speaker 1: but I think some of the more dynamic offenses are
Speaker 1: in the NFC. Right now, you said you gotta follow up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is more about the fish. Um, you do realize
Speaker 1: that you need to get plants and stuff for it
Speaker 1: because it's like pretty depressed right now. Fair enough, thank
Speaker 1: you for the call. Thank you for the call. We
Speaker 1: got our guy Jamis Finston over here. I'm trying to
Speaker 1: add to it. Okay, I gotta tell you the truth.
Speaker 1: We got these colorful marbles. I added these rubber duckies
Speaker 1: in here as well. We're working on it. Thank you
Speaker 1: for the inside Dan. We're gonna see what we could
Speaker 1: do what I do have on set though. We got
Speaker 1: a new sponsor, these UH kicks right and they'll do
Speaker 1: your favorite college. So we got Michigan and the Ohio
Speaker 1: State University. But thank you for the call. We're gonna
Speaker 1: try and work on the fish situation. We got another caller.
Speaker 1: It's Shannon in Georgia. Wants to talk to me about
Speaker 1: their first five picks and how I view them. Go ahead, Shannon,
Speaker 1: you know on the Fantasy Freestyle? Are you doing? Man?
Speaker 1: I'm a real big fan. I appreciate that. What's going on.
Speaker 1: I chose Jordy Nelson first, by the way, I was
Speaker 1: the sixth person to pick fair enough. I chose d
Speaker 1: Neson love it, then Doug Christian okay, and uh, lastly
Speaker 1: I got Allen Robinson okay, should be concerned? Should improve that? No. Listen,
Speaker 1: you said it's PPR format, Yes, okay. I think you're
Speaker 1: in great shape to be quite honest. Listen, the two
Speaker 1: top wide out you mentioned, Jordy Nelson and Doug Baldwin.
Speaker 1: I think Doug Baldwin is a viable back end wide
Speaker 1: out one for a team. So the fact that he's
Speaker 1: your wide out two, I think you're in great shape there.
Speaker 1: And then here's the thing, the key being it that
Speaker 1: it's PPR format right. Because of that, I like that
Speaker 1: you go wide out wide out at the top because
Speaker 1: you're gonna find running backs that in this PPR format
Speaker 1: are gonna be BPST and can still be running backs
Speaker 1: one and two for you in your case, Christian McCaffrey,
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a stud. I think he's
Speaker 1: gonna catch about fifty five ball. So I love it
Speaker 1: in that format. And Dalvin Cook it was one of
Speaker 1: my running back diamonds in the rough. So I absolutely
Speaker 1: love that your last pick was another wide receiver and
Speaker 1: you said it could be a wide out. Three. Who
Speaker 1: was that again, Alan Robinson? Sure, here's the thing, listen,
Speaker 1: that comes down to Blake Bortles, right. I do believe
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson has the skill to be an incredible wide
Speaker 1: receiver and could even return value for you there. I
Speaker 1: would watch this Blake Bortles situation though, because that could
Speaker 1: be the problem. But yes, Alan Robinson as a wide receiver. Three.
Speaker 1: I like what you did. What your five call in
Speaker 1: again anytime you want, Shannon throughout the season and we'll
Speaker 1: see how it goes. But thank you for the call. Hey, Chris,
Speaker 1: we gotta get to these tight end diamonds in the
Speaker 1: rough that I want to talk about. There's two more
Speaker 1: that I didn't get to yesterday that I would be
Speaker 1: remiss if I didn't tell you yesterday though, we had
Speaker 1: our poll up who was your tight end Diamonds in
Speaker 1: the Rough. The winner of that poll at tight end
Speaker 1: seventeen was Austin and Hooper. Thirty five percent of you
Speaker 1: said Hooper, thirty one percent of you said Hunter Henry,
Speaker 1: three percent said Eric Ebron. But we had five hundred
Speaker 1: votes on this poll, and a lot of people were
Speaker 1: saying other ones. Okay, a lot of nominations, guys like
Speaker 1: zach Ertz, guys like Cameron Brad, guys like Kobe Fleaner.
Speaker 1: One person though, big shout out to Binky at Binky
Speaker 1: the Doormat on Twitter. He says a s J we're
Speaker 1: talking about as Austin Safarian Jenkins on the New York Jets,
Speaker 1: and I think that is a very interesting option. He's
Speaker 1: going as tight end twenty eight right now, two hundred
Speaker 1: seventy fourth overall. That is pretty much undrafted. I like
Speaker 1: Austin Sefarian Jenkins. Why because there's no other options on
Speaker 1: the Jets. Okay, he might in fact be the leading
Speaker 1: receiver for this team. He's lost twenty pounds, he's got
Speaker 1: his mind right. He went to rehab in the offseason.
Speaker 1: He knows this is pretty much his last chance. And
Speaker 1: for the Jets, whether it is m account or God forbid,
Speaker 1: Christian Hackenburg under center, they're gonna be looking to check
Speaker 1: down and I think Austin Sefarian Jenkins, because you're not
Speaker 1: gonna be successful out there on the outside when you
Speaker 1: only got guys like Robbie Anderson and Sharon Peek. They're
Speaker 1: gonna go instead in a safe route. I could see
Speaker 1: Austin Seferian Jenkins and then Boom Boom Bilu pal Pal
Speaker 1: being real pieces of the passing game, and you can
Speaker 1: get him as late as you want. You could even
Speaker 1: probably pick him up after week one. Why because Safari
Speaker 1: and Jenkins has suspended for the first two weeks of
Speaker 1: the season. The one other guy I want to tell you,
Speaker 1: and this is a deep sleeper. Check out George Kittle
Speaker 1: on the San Francisco forty Niners. I think this guy
Speaker 1: is viable. The forty Niners say they loved him in camp,
Speaker 1: and you know what they did this week. They traded
Speaker 1: away there starting tight end Vance McDonald got traded to
Speaker 1: the Pittsburg Steelers, opening the door and opening the path
Speaker 1: for George Kittle. This guy is going undrafted. You may
Speaker 1: be saying, who remember the name George Kittle. I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a tight end that can come out
Speaker 1: of absolutely nowhere and then again in a conservative kind
Speaker 1: of offense with Brian Horror. I think they're gonna be
Speaker 1: able to use the tight end. They used the tight
Speaker 1: end a bunch. I think George Kittle could return some value.
Speaker 1: All right, got some news and notes that I want
Speaker 1: to get into. Also listen, the NFL is investigating Jarvis
Speaker 1: Landry for domestic violence and investigation. Okay, charges are not
Speaker 1: being filed. However, I already told you. I already told
Speaker 1: you that Jarvis Landry was gonna be a fool gaze.
Speaker 1: I told you that Dolphins did not want to extend
Speaker 1: this contract. I told you how much I like Davante Parker.
Speaker 1: This is now never another reason why Jarvis Landry is
Speaker 1: a fool gaze at the wide received her position. Also,
Speaker 1: Adam Schefter is now reporting that there's a real chance
Speaker 1: that that Zeke Elliott suspension does get reduced to maybe
Speaker 1: two or four games. I told you what needs to
Speaker 1: happen here is Zeke needs to take his medicine. If
Speaker 1: you listen to the Fantasy Freestyle yesterday. I told you
Speaker 1: you rather him just serve the suspension and then be back.
Speaker 1: You don't want that cloud hanging over your head later
Speaker 1: on in the season when you're in the fantasy playoffs. Also,
Speaker 1: there's some wide receivers that are now apparently on the
Speaker 1: trading block. Okay, I told you about Jarvis Landry before.
Speaker 1: The Chargers might be Stelp shopping dontrelle Inman. And if
Speaker 1: you're a big fan of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,
Speaker 1: you know I love dontrelle Inman. He's the inman, the
Speaker 1: fighter of the nights Man. That could mean because they
Speaker 1: have faith in guys like Travis Benjamin, Tyrrelle Williams. That
Speaker 1: could be why even Mike Williams health keep an eye
Speaker 1: out on that. The Seahawks are sharping uh Mr curse.
Speaker 1: That could mean they have faith and guys like Paul Richardson,
Speaker 1: guys like Tyler Lockett, even guys like Casson Williams keep
Speaker 1: an eye out on that. Also in Seattle, they're listening
Speaker 1: Thomas Rawls and Eddie Lacey as co starters. It seems
Speaker 1: like no one has grabbed the mantle of the starting
Speaker 1: running back and the Seahawks will be going with a
Speaker 1: true committee. Keep an eye out on that as we
Speaker 1: move all along into week one after the preseason. When
Speaker 1: we come back, we're gonna have my man Nick joined
Speaker 1: the show. I believe out there from l A. We're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about the a f C West. We're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about the NFC West. He's gonna give you some
Speaker 1: of his diamonds and fool gazes as well. We'll still
Speaker 1: take your callers as well as Dan Martinez, speeds and
Speaker 1: spitting statistician Right here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the
Speaker 1: award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we go out to
Speaker 1: the West Coast staff of this come all right, back,
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry Stirling and Shepherd Michael Thomas. These three NFL
Speaker 1: softwares are not due to slump, They're due to break out.
Speaker 1: Just like the Fantasy Sports Radio Network a year two,
Speaker 1: things are only getting better. Make sure listen live and
Speaker 1: dell o the app F and t s Y Radio
Speaker 1: each three and it's twenty four seven. The best Fantasy
Speaker 1: SPORTSNTEN is on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Welcome back
Speaker 1: to the Fantasy Freestyle, Dropping stats over beach, which your
Speaker 1: boy Dame Martinez speeds and spitting statistician right here on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle. I just finished saying that in week
Speaker 1: four of the preseason, the one thing you want to
Speaker 1: worry about is making sure that your starters do not
Speaker 1: get hurt. I turn and look, and the New York
Speaker 1: Jets starting quarterback Josh McCown is in a heap on
Speaker 1: the ground and Christian Hackenburg is warming up right now.
Speaker 1: Leave it to the New York Jets to play it
Speaker 1: in that way. They are trying everything possible to wind
Speaker 1: up with Am Donald as the number one overall pick
Speaker 1: in next year's draft. I'm telling you right now, in
Speaker 1: about nine months, you're going to hear the commissioners say
Speaker 1: and with the first pick, the New York Jets select
Speaker 1: quarterback out of USC Sam Donald. But enough about that,
Speaker 1: because I got my man Nick. I got my man
Speaker 1: Nick Lebrani with me. He's out there in l A.
Speaker 1: I gotta stop this East Coast bias, talking about only
Speaker 1: the Jets and only these East Coast teams who I
Speaker 1: want to bring in My boy Nick over there working
Speaker 1: with Pro Angle Media, do a little East Coast West
Speaker 1: Coast action. Nick, how you doing on a Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: How's it going out there? Man? What's up, Dane? That's
Speaker 1: going really well? You know, I'm I'm doing my usual
Speaker 1: sitting and sitting in l A traffic. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: just just on the four oh five. What are you on?
Speaker 1: You're on the floor O five, the one oh five,
Speaker 1: the five. What's up? I'm on the four oh five?
Speaker 1: You know the infamous. Are you driving a Bronco? Are
Speaker 1: you driving a white Bronco? No? No, no, no, alright,
Speaker 1: I'll never be a Bronco. Well, listen, listen that. I
Speaker 1: wanted to get into this with you a little bit
Speaker 1: because I have a couple of questions. You know, football
Speaker 1: is back in Los Angeles. We're gonna get into the
Speaker 1: a f C West and the NFC West some of
Speaker 1: your diamonds and full gazes as well. But the first
Speaker 1: thing I want to ask you is like, do people
Speaker 1: in l A care about the Chargers at all? I
Speaker 1: know they're gonna be in this like new stadium where
Speaker 1: the l A Galaxy is only five thousand something like that.
Speaker 1: I saw Dan Fouts recently say it's an embarrassment that
Speaker 1: the charges were there. Do you think that people are
Speaker 1: gonna come out second year for the Rams, first year
Speaker 1: for the Chargers, two teams that might be doing better
Speaker 1: than last year. What do you think is there buzz
Speaker 1: out there about the Rams and the Chargers? You know,
Speaker 1: there definitely is some buzz with both of these teams.
Speaker 1: I think, Um, I think that there's some excitement. More so,
Speaker 1: I think with the Chargers because that stadium is so
Speaker 1: unique in so many ways. It only holds a max
Speaker 1: thirty thousand. They just add a few, uh five thousand
Speaker 1: seats of bleachers, but that is a that's a stadium
Speaker 1: where you're gonna go find an experience unlike any other
Speaker 1: NFL venue you go to because the smallest size of
Speaker 1: it so um and plus the Chargers, you know they're
Speaker 1: gonna be exciting team to watch, you know, as well
Speaker 1: as the Rams. But if you're going to choose the
Speaker 1: place to go see a game this year, I'd much
Speaker 1: rather go see a Chargers game that Ram game. The
Speaker 1: Coliseum is just an absolute, you know, nightmare right now.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure both those teams really can't wait to
Speaker 1: get that new stadium going. Fair Enough, let me ask you.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, Nick, because I'm a little
Speaker 1: bit high on the Charger, So I want to hear
Speaker 1: what you think as well. I actually think the Charges
Speaker 1: are gonna finish in second place in that division and
Speaker 1: compete for a wild card. Listen, I think Joey Bosa
Speaker 1: is turning into an animal coming off the edge. There's
Speaker 1: the return of Jason Varette, who is a legitimate number
Speaker 1: one cornerback for the Charges. Just and I sort of
Speaker 1: think this could be Philip Rivers last Hurrah. And in
Speaker 1: the a f C West, I expect regression from the
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos given the Trevor Simeon Packs Than Lynch kind
Speaker 1: of experiment. And I also think that the Chiefs got
Speaker 1: a little bit lucky last year with things like returning
Speaker 1: two point conversions for touchdowns against Atlanta. Could you see
Speaker 1: the Chargers making a step? Do you think the Raiders
Speaker 1: deserve to be prohibitive favorites? How do you see the
Speaker 1: a f C West shaking out? You know, you know,
Speaker 1: I actually see it, you know, very very similar, if
Speaker 1: not the same. I actually was going through the Charger
Speaker 1: schedule and I I could see ten wins there from that, Uh,
Speaker 1: the schedule gets a little bit light. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: they have a couple of East coast travels, which is
Speaker 1: never easy from a West Coast team going to the
Speaker 1: East coast. However, I do think that they could get
Speaker 1: ten winst year. The only thing that I could see
Speaker 1: slowing them down is that offensive offensive it was it
Speaker 1: was a problem last year. Yeah, I mean and and
Speaker 1: the and also the other part is, you know, the
Speaker 1: Charges last year blew about four or fourth quarter leads.
Speaker 1: They could have easily had nine wins last year, absolutely
Speaker 1: losing five straight to end the season. There were plenty
Speaker 1: of games where they were up with five minutes left
Speaker 1: to go and like the wind, probability was high, they
Speaker 1: found ways to lose, they could not finish. And you
Speaker 1: know the gift of that now, the gift of that
Speaker 1: now is they got a fourth place schedule with a
Speaker 1: team that is probably better than their records showed last year.
Speaker 1: So you could see the Charges maybe making a run
Speaker 1: in a wild card. Absolutely no, there's no, There's no
Speaker 1: question they have the potential be a wild card favorite,
Speaker 1: which makes which which you know, l a feeds off hype.
Speaker 1: So you know, say the Charges got off to a
Speaker 1: fast start. You know they're three and oh three and
Speaker 1: one going into you know, into the quarter mark, of
Speaker 1: the season. All the hype is high on them. And
Speaker 1: then you've got Philip Rivers who's approaching a milestone. He's
Speaker 1: approaching with fifty thousand um passing yard Gates as well,
Speaker 1: so that that also adds Fan Gates, you know, I
Speaker 1: mean him and Gates are you know, they're just breaking
Speaker 1: records every single year with their with their connection. So
Speaker 1: you know, I definitely see that the Chargers can be
Speaker 1: a team a fun team to watch this year, especially
Speaker 1: with the Rivers and uh Keenan Allen connection. I think
Speaker 1: those are two guys. If you could somehow form a
Speaker 1: stack in your lineup this year, getting Rivers late in
Speaker 1: drafts and getting Keenan Outen at the right value, you
Speaker 1: could have a nice little fantasy team too with two
Speaker 1: Charges on your team. Hey, let me ask you this, Nick,
Speaker 1: because you mentioned something I've been telling people on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle for weeks now. You talked about waiting at
Speaker 1: the quarterback position, right, And that's exactly what I'm telling
Speaker 1: people to do in their drafts this year. Why use
Speaker 1: the draft capital you need in the third or second,
Speaker 1: third or fourth round to get Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and the like when you could wait. You
Speaker 1: can wait until much later rounds, rounds nine or ten
Speaker 1: and wind up with the Philip Rivers, wind up with
Speaker 1: a guy like say Matthew Stafford, even the new one
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million dollar man. Do you have any
Speaker 1: kind of other quarterback diamonds in the rough that you
Speaker 1: think could be de viable plays that will return just
Speaker 1: as much value I've been talking about and targeting guys
Speaker 1: like Philip Rivers, like Matthew Stafford, like Kirk Cousins, like
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, like Marcus Mariota. Well, do you have any
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks that you think it could be diamonds in
Speaker 1: the rough heading into early part of the football season.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm very high on on one of the
Speaker 1: guys you mentioned. The other guy you didn't mention, Matthew
Speaker 1: Stafford is probably one of those guys. He's He's a
Speaker 1: diamond for sure. He's a guy just got paid so
Speaker 1: which means that you know, they have a lot of
Speaker 1: faith in him. They want him, they want to see him.
Speaker 1: You know that offense, the offensive coordinator they're gonna throw
Speaker 1: the ball a ton. They don't even have a running
Speaker 1: back that's gonna be in between the tackles. Whether it's
Speaker 1: Amer Abdullah or Theoretic, you know they're gonna throw in Detroit.
Speaker 1: I'm fading all Detroit Lions running backs with the exception
Speaker 1: of Theoretic because he's not He's not your prototypical running back.
Speaker 1: He's a wide receiver with the running back tag on him.
Speaker 1: He lines up more on the shotgun with Stafford where
Speaker 1: he feels most most comfortable. Uh. And he's gonna catch
Speaker 1: so many balls. You know, it's twenty fifteen season. He
Speaker 1: called eighty passes on ninety nine targets. Now you've got
Speaker 1: jim Boncouter in his second season with a veteran quarterback,
Speaker 1: you know, get having more reps underneath them there. They're
Speaker 1: just gonna keep feeding him and feeding him. So Stafford
Speaker 1: has one. The other guy I wanted to mention was
Speaker 1: Derek Carr. The guy's getting no love um and dry
Speaker 1: in his current a DP. I mean, you can get
Speaker 1: him late in rounds two, you get him eight nine,
Speaker 1: tenth round. And this is a guy who's probably gonna
Speaker 1: throw for yards. Him and markret Cooper just another year together,
Speaker 1: you know. And I another guy to Amari Cooper that
Speaker 1: connection be I think exciting to watch all year. He's
Speaker 1: a gun slinger. Um. You know Marshawn Lynch, I know you.
Speaker 1: I remember you talked about him yesterday. I I don't
Speaker 1: see him getting eight hundred yards receiving rushing this year.
Speaker 1: I can. I just see him coming in for at
Speaker 1: the goal line. He'll his value is gonna be at
Speaker 1: the goal line. I don't like what a Mike Tilber
Speaker 1: was for the Chargers were maybe like four years ago,
Speaker 1: five years ago when he was there. So you know,
Speaker 1: the Derek Carr and Matt Stafford are definitely two of
Speaker 1: my diamonds. I like that. I like that Derek Carr
Speaker 1: and Matt Stafford were both m VP candidates before injuries
Speaker 1: last year. Um, let's talk about the NFC West real quick, Nick,
Speaker 1: because you know everybody thinks that maybe the Seahawks, but
Speaker 1: their offensive line could be an issue when you think
Speaker 1: about Arizona, when you think about San Francisco or your team,
Speaker 1: the Rams out there in l A, which team, if
Speaker 1: any is gonna maybe try to poke their head up
Speaker 1: to challenge the Seahawks in that division? I think you
Speaker 1: know the Rams now have the new coach out there,
Speaker 1: working with Jared Goff they've added some weapons. Our team
Speaker 1: is still gonna put fifty three minute in the box
Speaker 1: to try to stop Todd Gurley and the other thing
Speaker 1: in Arizona. I personally think that Carson Palmer is about
Speaker 1: to fall off a cliff in terms of his performance
Speaker 1: at the age he's at. Who do you think steps
Speaker 1: up to compete with Seattle in that division? You know,
Speaker 1: I actually I think it's Arizona that that division this year.
Speaker 1: I think that this is the Cardinals last, their last
Speaker 1: real go at it with with an age, like you said,
Speaker 1: an aging Carson Palmer and aging Larry Fitzgerald. But they
Speaker 1: if you were to take a look at their strength
Speaker 1: to schedule this year, it's wide open and it's very
Speaker 1: past happy for Carson Palmer. So he's another guy if
Speaker 1: you really wanted to stash and wait on a quarterback,
Speaker 1: I would actually give him shot as a as a
Speaker 1: last ditch, you know, effort, you know, to kind of
Speaker 1: get some value at quarterback and ride him out as
Speaker 1: long as he can. Once he stays healthy, I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna be you know, he could finish in the
Speaker 1: top ten and quarterbacks even maybe even a little bit
Speaker 1: uh higher up than that and The beautiful part about
Speaker 1: is waiting at quarterback, right, is it doesn't matter. Let's
Speaker 1: see who falls to you. Grab two of them, grab
Speaker 1: Palmer and Stafford right and just see which one pops off,
Speaker 1: See which matchup or you felt better it could. It
Speaker 1: doesn't mean. There's so many options out there. Kirk Cousins,
Speaker 1: you might get that falls to you, Derek Carr, Cam Newton,
Speaker 1: so many options, but the key here is to wait
Speaker 1: on quarterback. Um. Listen, Nick, I had a lot of fun. Man,
Speaker 1: we gotta go to commercial break. Would you be able
Speaker 1: maybe to keep joining the Fantasy Freestyle every week? You
Speaker 1: talk about the stacks? Right, maybe what we can do
Speaker 1: is give Nick's Stack of the Week from the West
Speaker 1: Coast every week. How did you feel about that, coming
Speaker 1: back from Fantasy Freestyle and giving you and giving us
Speaker 1: our quarterback wide receivers stack of the Week. Absolutely, I
Speaker 1: would more than love to do. I'm a huge DraftKings guy.
Speaker 1: I'm a I'm a weekly player on Draft Kings and
Speaker 1: I think you know, any time I can provide any
Speaker 1: sort of value for you guys, I'm more than happy
Speaker 1: to do it. All right, sounds good, Nick, Thank you
Speaker 1: so much, And by the way, let's go dranks out there.
Speaker 1: I know you got a playoff game. Make sure you
Speaker 1: guys get it done. Tune with night. We got opening day,

Speaker 1: we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle. Okay, we're gonna
Speaker 1: take some of your calls. Like I said, we're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about some of the things that you need to
Speaker 1: look for. In week four and J. J. Watt has
Speaker 1: surpassed another fundraising milestone. We'll get into all that when
Speaker 1: we come back. Dropping stats over beat at the Fantasy

Speaker 1: to the fantasy freestyle dropping stats over beach right. You're
Speaker 1: in a fantasy sports radio network. I'm your boy, Dane Martinez,
Speaker 1: speeds and spitting statistician holding you down. On a Thursday.
Speaker 1: We got my boy Chris ba Bone on the ones
Speaker 1: and tools. He's given it so hot that we sweat
Speaker 1: stem such things. To my boy Nick Lavieri out there
Speaker 1: on the east the West coast, we were talking a
Speaker 1: little bit. He likes the Chargers a little bit to
Speaker 1: make some noise in the a f C West, and
Speaker 1: he likes the Arizona Cardinals to have one last ride
Speaker 1: with Carson Palmer aging quarterbacks the theme for Nick, Carson
Speaker 1: Palmer and Philip Rivers. I told you also that, uh,
Speaker 1: there are some things to look for, even though it
Speaker 1: is week four of the preseason. Even though that the
Speaker 1: primary thing to do is not get hurt at the
Speaker 1: quarterback position. The main starters, they're gonna pull them right away.
Speaker 1: They're gonna play one series. If that However, to win
Speaker 1: your fantasy football league, you need to know the right
Speaker 1: running back handcuffs. You need to know the right guys
Speaker 1: that are about to pop, that are still going to play.
Speaker 1: In Week four of the preseason, here are a couple
Speaker 1: of situations. There's a couple of running back issues that
Speaker 1: I really think could codify and solidify a little bit,
Speaker 1: even though it is Week four of the preseason. Let
Speaker 1: me give you some right now. The first one is
Speaker 1: in San Francisco. I've been high on Joe Williams. I've
Speaker 1: been high on Joe Williams. Remember how Shanahan and Lynch
Speaker 1: proverbally pounded the table to go up and draft Joe Williams.
Speaker 1: But I gotta tell you this kid, Matt Brida might
Speaker 1: surpass him and leap frog him for number two on
Speaker 1: the depth chart. And I still believe, no matter who
Speaker 1: it is that's in the number two spot in San Francisco,
Speaker 1: I believe Carlos Hide is not long for this offense.
Speaker 1: I do not think he is a scheme fit. I
Speaker 1: do not think that the coach and the GM like him,
Speaker 1: and he is an injury risk. So keep an eye
Speaker 1: when San Francisco plays this week. Even though it's Week four.
Speaker 1: Does Joe Williams get burned? Does Matt Brida look good?
Speaker 1: That's something to look for because someone is gonna surpass
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide on the depth chart this year in San Francisco.
Speaker 1: Out there in Green Bay, I've been talking about Jamal Williams. Well,
Speaker 1: now Time Montgomery is healthy, right, so maybe they keep
Speaker 1: Time Montgomery and bubble wrap. Jamal Williams has an opportunity
Speaker 1: to impress when the Green Bay Packers play their fourth
Speaker 1: preseason game. I'm also gonna be looking for Jamal Williams
Speaker 1: if he can pick up blitz is. Past protection is
Speaker 1: going to be key, because whoever the back is there
Speaker 1: in Green Bay, one of the primary concerns will be
Speaker 1: can they do it in past protection? Who protect Aaron Rodgers?
Speaker 1: Whoever is better in pass pro may have a leg
Speaker 1: up in that competition in Green Bay. I also look
Speaker 1: at the Philadelphia Eagles. There was a caller yesterday that
Speaker 1: talked about um Legarrett Blunt and if he needs some
Speaker 1: other options, and we're getting reports today Legarrett Blunt, you know,
Speaker 1: his roster spot could be in jeopardy, that the team
Speaker 1: is very down on him, that the Eagles are looking
Speaker 1: maybe even outside of the organization for help at running back.
Speaker 1: You know what that means. Though there's a lot of
Speaker 1: backs in Philadelphia. I'm talking Wendel Smallwood, I'm talking Danielle Pumphrey.
Speaker 1: There's some opportunity there. So let's see if any of
Speaker 1: these guys that play in Week four for the Eagles
Speaker 1: look good and look to really compete with Legarrett Blunt
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. Same to be said in New Orleans. I
Speaker 1: want to see more of Alvin Kamara. You got Ingram there.
Speaker 1: You've got so many um running backs in New Orleans
Speaker 1: and they can't rest them all. Somebody is gonna shine
Speaker 1: for the Saints in Week four of the preseason. I
Speaker 1: got an idea that I think it's gonna be Alvin Kamara.
Speaker 1: Watch Alvin Kamara and see if he pressed is Adrian
Speaker 1: Peterson at all. The other thing is, listen, we know
Speaker 1: it's now everyone's darling. You hear it on the Fantasy
Speaker 1: sports radio and work all the time. You hear that
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt, Kareem Hunt, Kareem Hunt. You heard about Kareem
Speaker 1: Hunt before Spencer ware even had his knee injury, right,
Speaker 1: But now Kareem Hunt is gonna be a bell cow back.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be a workhorse. You know what that does?
Speaker 1: That opens up opportunities for the second back in Kansas City.
Speaker 1: Is that gonna be c J. Spiller? Is that gonna
Speaker 1: be my man? The Shark Nado Sharkandrick West? Will really
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt be a true bell cow or will you
Speaker 1: need to know who the second running back is in
Speaker 1: Kansas City? I think you might, and I think it
Speaker 1: could be c. J. Spiller. Keep an eye on c J.
Speaker 1: Spiller versus Sharkandrick West. The other place I think you
Speaker 1: really got to look at is Seattle. We talked about
Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey hashtag feast mode looking to replace beast Mode
Speaker 1: up there in Seattle, and I think, listen, he has
Speaker 1: not grabbed that job. I mentioned to you that Thomas
Speaker 1: Rawls and Eddie Lacey are both listed as co starters
Speaker 1: for the Seahawks. Listen, Rawls has been banged up. He
Speaker 1: might play in this fourth preseason him for the Seahawks.
Speaker 1: Keep an eye on him, Keep an eye on a
Speaker 1: guy like C. J. Prosise as well. Those are some
Speaker 1: things to look at right here, all right. We also
Speaker 1: we got callers still here as well, Chris, who do
Speaker 1: we got right here here on the fantasy freestyle that
Speaker 1: wants to uh, that wants to holler at your boy?
Speaker 1: It looks like we got Alex in l a do
Speaker 1: we have Alex? No? All right, we got al Let's
Speaker 1: bring him on the fantasy field style. What's up? What's
Speaker 1: going on? Alexide feeling? What's up? What's good? Man? I'm good?
Speaker 1: How are you? I'm doing? All right? What you got?
Speaker 1: What you got? You want to tell of your team? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I picked four in a in a ten team standard.
Speaker 1: Um I got. I got Wilson is like qbrol and
Speaker 1: Gurley in the back. I like that. I got Julio
Speaker 1: receivers tight end. I pick up crap Tree and Coleman. Sure,
Speaker 1: I picked the Coleman in the eleventh Brown. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: here's for me. Here's the deal, And thanks for the call.
Speaker 1: Because I like your team a lot. Okay, I like
Speaker 1: your team a lot. I like how you doing Isaiah
Speaker 1: crow Well. I think this offensive line for Cleveland is
Speaker 1: one of the top five offensive line in the game.
Speaker 1: I think Isaiah crow Well is a diamond in the
Speaker 1: rough for you. I really like that pick. I like
Speaker 1: also Coral because of the fact that the Shawn Kaiser
Speaker 1: is going to be the quarterback there. I think that
Speaker 1: releads to more heavy run game for the Browns. I
Speaker 1: like that. The one thing that I gotta tell you
Speaker 1: my one concern. And you know, he was one of
Speaker 1: the top tight ends out there. Okay, listen, I'm a
Speaker 1: little bit. I'm a little bit down on Greg Olsen
Speaker 1: this year. Okay, greg Olsen is going as tight end three.
Speaker 1: He's going forty eight overall. I don't think he's worth
Speaker 1: it necessarily. And here's why the Carolina Panthers are changing
Speaker 1: their offense. Remember, they're trying to get the ball out
Speaker 1: of Cam Newton's hands a little bit quicker this year.
Speaker 1: They want to try to protect Cam Newton. They're moving
Speaker 1: their scheme a little bit. Last year, and in years
Speaker 1: hass Cam Newton and his deep drops. He would then
Speaker 1: you know, when he was in trouble, he would chuck
Speaker 1: it to Greg Olsen. Okay, and that's how greg Olsen
Speaker 1: got a lot of production. I don't know. I think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a little bit more Christian McCaffrey, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a little bit more of Curtis Samuel. They're
Speaker 1: gonna try and do a little bit of quick slants mismatches.
Speaker 1: I think that Greg Olsen, they're going away from greg
Speaker 1: Olsen in that offense, I believe, with them looking to
Speaker 1: get the ball out of Cam Newton's hands quick er. Listen.
Speaker 1: I think that greg Olsen is going to be just fine.
Speaker 1: But if I were you, I would while you still can.
Speaker 1: I don't think greg Olsen is gonna be a top
Speaker 1: five tight end this year. Okay. I think he's on
Speaker 1: the downside a little bit. He's also entering I believe
Speaker 1: his age thirty three season. He's no spring chicken. That
Speaker 1: is the only concern I have on your team, Alex.
Speaker 1: But otherwise I think you're looking real good. And thanks
Speaker 1: for the call as always. Hey, Chris, it sounds like
Speaker 1: we got another caller. It sounds like we got um
Speaker 1: Nick in New Jersey who wants to talk a little
Speaker 1: bit about one of my wide receiver frough Gayze is
Speaker 1: Unfortunately Nick in New Jersey. You're dropping stats overbeats with
Speaker 1: its bit and statistician. You're on the Fantasy Freestyle. What's up? Okay?
Speaker 1: So I actually had two questions. One is yeah, so
Speaker 1: one is Um, do you think that like, how do
Speaker 1: you feel about um t Y Hilton and Keenan Allen
Speaker 1: this year? Given that t Y I don't know how
Speaker 1: long he doesn't have Andrew Luck for and then Keenan
Speaker 1: just injury prone. And my second question is, do you
Speaker 1: um think that Jordan Howard's gonna have his sophomore slump
Speaker 1: this year? Alright? Alright, so let's take him one at
Speaker 1: a time. Okay, UM, if you listen to a fantasy freestyle,
Speaker 1: you know that I'm I'm down on t Y Hilton. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm down on t Y Hilton. Unfortunately, I UM, I think, yes,
Speaker 1: you mentioned the Andrew Luck factor, and the news continues
Speaker 1: to get worse on Andrew Luck. It sounds that they
Speaker 1: just keep on pushing it back. I'm like, oh, will
Speaker 1: it be ready for week one? Oh? We don't know.
Speaker 1: And so that's definitely one thing. But as I said
Speaker 1: to a caller yesterday, I think there's natural regression for
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton anyway. And here's why he led the
Speaker 1: NFL receiving yards last year for four hundred and forty
Speaker 1: eight yards. I don't think even with Andrew Luck he
Speaker 1: would have repeated that. So there's some natural regression there.
Speaker 1: The other reason is Dante Moncrief their second best wide receiver.
Speaker 1: He was out for half the season last year. He
Speaker 1: had collarbone injury, shoulder injuries. He's back and healthy, so
Speaker 1: I think that also takes some of the attention away
Speaker 1: from t Y Hilton. Takes some of the targets away
Speaker 1: from t Y Hilton and later on in the season
Speaker 1: when Andrew Luck and Dante Moncrief are both there. Dante
Speaker 1: Moncrief was a favorite of Andrew Luck, especially in the
Speaker 1: red zone. So yes, I'm down on t Y Hilton.
Speaker 1: Um Keenan Allen, However, Keenan Allen, however, is someone who listen,
Speaker 1: You're right the health concerns, but you talk about someone
Speaker 1: being injury prone. One of the injuries that Keenan Allen
Speaker 1: had was like a lacerated spleen or a liver something
Speaker 1: like that. It was an intestinal thing. It was a
Speaker 1: freak accident. Okay, So I don't know. I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: the a c L was bad, But listen, I think
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen has a chance to return to form as
Speaker 1: a high and wide receiver too. So I'm okay with
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen. I am, however, down on t Y Hilton.
Speaker 1: The only other thing you mentioned was Jordan Howard. Will
Speaker 1: he have a sophomore slump? I don't know if i'd
Speaker 1: call it a sophomore slump per se, But I don't
Speaker 1: think he's a bet to be second in the NFL
Speaker 1: and rushing again at hundred yards. I don't think that's
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I think there will be a little bit
Speaker 1: of a downtick at that point in the draft. I
Speaker 1: like some other guys. I like a guy like Isaiah
Speaker 1: Quo well ahead of a guy like Jordan Howard. But
Speaker 1: thanks for the call. I gotta get one more in.
Speaker 1: We got Brendan and Washington. You're in, but we're up
Speaker 1: against the break. Brendan, what's your question? You're on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle in our nation's capital. So I Kareem Hunt,
Speaker 1: and I think he's a little overvalued, so I'm going
Speaker 1: to trade him. But I was wondering if I could
Speaker 1: get a guy like talk early for him, or if
Speaker 1: I could get a guy like him. So, okay, that's
Speaker 1: an interesting idea. Right stock is real high and Kareem
Speaker 1: Hunt right now and you lucked out. I don't know
Speaker 1: when your draft was, if it was before or after
Speaker 1: dispencilware injury. But regardless, you got him, and you're right,
Speaker 1: the price is high right now. People love Kareem Hunt,
Speaker 1: so it's not a bad idea to think if you
Speaker 1: could flip him for something even better that you think
Speaker 1: might be stable. Here's the thing You're not gonna get
Speaker 1: DeVonta Freeman. Okay, if I'm the DeVante Freeman owner, I
Speaker 1: don't think like if you're the Devanta Freeman owner, you
Speaker 1: probably spent your first round draft pick for Devantae Freeman,
Speaker 1: So I don't think you're trading him for some up
Speaker 1: and coming back even though there is a lot of
Speaker 1: buzz around Kareem Hunt. You know, Todd Gurley, that would
Speaker 1: be an interesting idea too. I like your your concept
Speaker 1: that you may want to try and sell high. I
Speaker 1: don't mind that, but I think it may be tough
Speaker 1: to get an owner that's gonna bite, and the only
Speaker 1: thing you can do to go up from Kareem Hunt
Speaker 1: is to get a true RB, one that someone probably
Speaker 1: spent their first or second round draft pick. I think
Speaker 1: it's a decent idea, but I think it's gonna be
Speaker 1: hard pressed for you to find a trade partner in
Speaker 1: that situation, Brendan in our nation's capital. Thanks for all
Speaker 1: the calls right now. When we come back, though, we're
Speaker 1: up against the break. When we come back on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle, we got to check in on J. J. Watt.
Speaker 1: He has surpassed his one thought of ridiculous fundraising goal.
Speaker 1: We got a couple of other things I want to
Speaker 1: get at real quick as well, before we slide into
Speaker 1: a holiday weekend. It's day Martinez speeds the spitting statistician

Speaker 1: encourage everybody to as well. There is no limit to
Speaker 1: the money that can be raised to support our fellow
Speaker 1: Americans in need. Um last thing I want to do,
Speaker 1: you know, last weekend even I want to give a
Speaker 1: last time shout out to some of the people that
Speaker 1: won championships. I talked about the Little League World Series.
Speaker 1: Japan won the Little League World Series. They dominated Texas
Speaker 1: with a mercy rule twelve to two. They didn't score,
Speaker 1: they didn't have an error in the entire tournament. They
Speaker 1: outscored their opponents nine two of nine. So I want
Speaker 1: to give a big shout out to the team from
Speaker 1: Japan that has won five of the last eight Little
