00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: presented by Draft Kings. It's me your man, nam G.

5
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: Marcus Rants still masking and socially, distance to win and

6
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 1: where necessary and what we're almost at the end. We

7
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: have gotten through the final Sunday of the fantasy season,

8
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 1: at least for most of you. Is the humaniacs out

9
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: there still playing Week seventeen. Will address that a little

10
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: bit later. One more game on the docket that is

11
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 1: tonight between the Bills and the Patriots. Keep checks will

12
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: stop by. We will talk about that game also Again

13
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 1: for some of you out there still grinding on this,

14
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: we got a little bit of waiver wide. Don't expect

15
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: it to be very deep this week, but we're also

16
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: gonna start to spin forward and look ahead to what

17
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: potentially is coming. In one we will have a way

18
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 1: too early mock draft. We will pick ten players we

19
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: think will land in the first round next year and

20
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: kind of give you our thoughts as to why they

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: landed where they did. So we got that and more

22
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 1: to do on this Monday show, and as we always

23
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: are on a Monday, we are joined by the one

24
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: and only can be checks who uh cany Your team

25
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: has been making you sweat it out a lot lately.

26
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 1: In a game that everybody thought should be a walk

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 1: against the Falcons was definitely not that. But in the end,

28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: I guess doesn't really matter, right, A win is a win.

29
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: They don't ask how, they ask how many? And now

30
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: your team keeps winning there. Well, we are the number

31
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: one seed. We we secured that by we won, even

32
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: though if it was a little bit too close to comfort.

33
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 1: I thought that we would absolutely smash through Matt Ryan

34
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: and the Atlanta Falcons, but they put up a fight.

35
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: I think it was good to test both our defense

36
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: and our offense and get that win in a kind

37
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: of unfortunate game script situation. But we didn't, so I'm

38
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: happy and your team did it too. Fortys had a

39
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: huge upset over the Cardinals on Saturday, forty and Islands

40
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: putting up a fight, Like I gotta give them credit,

41
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: Kyle Shannigan as those guys ready to show up and play.

42
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: C J be third of all people getting it done,

43
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I jokingly tweeted over the weekend,

44
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: congrats to all the c J Bethord managers on winning

45
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: their fantasy championships, and wouldn't you know it, but I

46
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: did get several responses from people that said either they

47
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,239
Speaker 1: were in really deep leagues when they were scraping the

48
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: bottom of the barrel, or two quarterback leagues. But I

49
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: did get multiple responses back from people saying they did

50
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: start c J Bethord on Saturday. So it just goes

51
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: to show, uh, in this crazy fantasy game that pretty

52
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: much anything can happen at any time. All Right, that's

53
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: a good way to spend for what we usually do.

54
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: We usually call fantasy headlines. Right now, we're calling it

55
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: your championship m VPS four Week sixteen, and let's start.

56
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: Let's go all the way back to Christmas Day when

57
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara just put on a show six rushing touchdowns

58
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 1: for Camara. It's funny, I you know, because I was

59
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: Christmas Day, I had eaten too much. I didn't really

60
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: have much to do. After the whole presence thing was over,

61
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: I watched the start of that game. I kind of

62
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: drowsed on the couch for a little bit, and then

63
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: I woke up and saw the final numbers and was

64
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: absolutely blown away by what Camara did and then realized

65
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: that he could have had a seventh had Taysom Hill

66
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: uh not had a rushing touchdown of his own. So, Kimmy,

67
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: we we know how good Alvin Camara can be, but

68
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: we also saw late in the season that when Drew

69
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: Brees wasn't there, it was a little bit of a

70
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: different story and Camara was just sort of human for

71
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: the most parts. So with talk that Drew Brees could

72
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: very well retire after this season, is Alvin Camara going

73
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: to be a top five pick next year? If say

74
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: it's Taysom Hill or Jamis Winston or any other quarterback

75
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: not named Drew Brees, can we count on him to

76
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: be a top five fantasy pick? I don't know. I don't.

77
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: I don't want to tease the show too much, but

78
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: I know later on we look ahead and we do

79
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: a mock first round draft of of the guys we

80
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: think are going to go and where they're going to land.

81
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are going to be

82
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: very surprised and what that looks like for Alvin Kimara,

83
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: because like you said, it seems like Sean Payton, and

84
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: the Saints are are are sure that they want Taysom

85
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: Hill to be a part of that quarterback situation, even

86
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: if Drew Brees is no longer there. Like you said,

87
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: when Taysom Hill is the quarterback, Alvin Kamara is just human.

88
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: That's why he had to go out and the fantasy

89
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: playoffs and put up six touchdowns to try to make

90
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: up for all the touchdowns he lost while Taysom Hill

91
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: was the quarterback. But I think we have to look

92
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: at that quarterback situation and that scenario before we make

93
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: any assumptions on Alvin Kamari's production. We know he's good,

94
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: but we also know that if Taysom Hill is going

95
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: to be the starting quarterback, Taysom Hill is going to

96
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: run the ball himself. That is going to be maybe

97
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: one of the most impactful fantasy decisions of the off

98
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: season is what the Saints do at quarterback. And I

99
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: don't think they have completely put their cards on the

100
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 1: table one way or a another. Obviously, what happens with

101
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: Drew Brees does have something to do with it. If

102
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: Breese decides he wants to come back for one more round,

103
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: I would assume he's going to walk back into that

104
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: starting job. But if he's not there, you know, Sean

105
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: Payton has certainly intimated that the quarterback of the future,

106
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: or at least the success or, I should say to

107
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, is in the building. So maybe that's Taysom Hill,

108
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: maybe that's somebody else. But I do think we're going

109
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: to keep a very close eye on this quarterback situation

110
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: and what this potentially means for Alvin Kimara, because you're right,

111
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: if if for whatever reason, we see Taysom Hill as

112
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: the starter for sixteen weeks, that's gonna take a big

113
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: bite out of Kamara's fantasy value for one. And yes,

114
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: that's a little bit of a tease because we will

115
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: talk about that a little later on in the show. Uh,

116
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 1: fast forward to Saturday, from Friday to Saturday, and again,

117
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: you know, I it was a Saturday. I listened to

118
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: a little bit. I went out, you know, we had

119
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: some family time, got outside in the in the big

120
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: park and went walking. Uh and listen to a little

121
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: bit of the game on the radio. I got in

122
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: the car. It was just starting. It was close. We

123
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: get back in the car. It's seven on the seven up.

124
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,239
Speaker 1: Because Tom Brady and Mike Evans both went berserk. Brady

125
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: didn't even play the second half. That's how good Tom

126
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: Brady was. And at this moment as we sit here

127
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: and talk before the Monday night game is played, Tom

128
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: Brady is the QB nine. Overall of this season, Kimmy,

129
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: and especially the last few weeks has been really, really good.

130
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: Is it possible that we underestimated Tom Brady this year?

131
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: We we we gave too much credit to Father Time

132
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: this year and he's holding him off again. I think

133
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: we have and I will be the very first person

134
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: to raise my hand and say I have been petty

135
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: on Tom Brady. I have shaded Tom Brady. I have

136
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: said that he's not Fantasy relevant, and he's proved us wrong.

137
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: You know. I think the unfortunate situation with with Tom

138
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: Brady is that there's so much pressure on him because

139
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: of how he's performed, bringing in six Super Bowl rings

140
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,359
Speaker 1: for the Patriots, now leaving Bill Belichick, and there's this

141
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: whole converse station of is it Bill and he's a

142
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: great coach, or is it Tom Brady being a great quarterback?

143
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: Now seeing him in a new offense, there was a

144
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 1: lot of questions and a lot of skepticism, but you

145
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: have to look and see what he's done with this offense.

146
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: If you just look at that game on Saturday, that

147
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: the huge thrashing against the Lions, he spread the ball

148
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: to multiple receivers. He's throwing downfield more so than he

149
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: has in years. He's playing incredibly good football, and he

150
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: just secured the books a trip to a playoff birth

151
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: for the first time in years. So I think we

152
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 1: underestimated Tom Brady, We've shaded Tom Brady, and he's still

153
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: reminding us that he is the goat. So I'm sorry, Tom,

154
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: I'm sorry for any pettiness I've ever I've ever projected

155
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: onto you. You were good. I wasn't sure he'd be

156
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: a top ten quarterback. I had him as the QB

157
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: twelve and and right now he is a few spots

158
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: ahead of that. And I think I've been mostly impressed

159
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: by how consistently he's been productive all through the year.

160
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: I mean it's not like, you know, it's obviously not

161
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: the fifty touchdown year the he had earlier in his career,

162
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: but he's going out and he's playing with easily the

163
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: best group of wide receivers. He's ever had. That certainly helps.

164
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: But he is making plays and and especially taking advantage

165
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: of great matchups like he did on Saturday, and really

166
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: getting hot at the right time, getting hot at the

167
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: right time for the Buccaneers certainly, but definitely was getting

168
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: hot at the right time for fantasy managers as well,

169
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: who decided to start him over the last few weeks.

170
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: So we'll see how long he can kind of keep

171
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: this running. But you know, he's going to be back

172
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: in Tampa next year, presumably he's going to have at

173
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: least Mike Evans and Chris Godwin will see what the

174
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: future holds for Antonio Brown and Rob Bronkowski and the like.

175
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 1: But you know, I feel like this this was sort

176
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: of my uh, I guess my rebuke if you will,

177
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: about Tom Brady, and I will probably put him in

178
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: my top ten next year, which if I do that

179
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 1: guarantees that he's going to have a fall off. But whatever,

180
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: you know, this is this is how we live, This

181
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: is how we how we make our deations based on

182
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 1: what happened. But Brady and Mike Evans both fantastic, and look,

183
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: even Chris Godwin had a good game. Antonio Brown scored

184
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: a touchdown. It was pretty much a bonanza if you

185
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: had any piece of the Buccaneers passing game on Saturday. Uh,

186
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: the last, not the last, but the last one. We're

187
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 1: going to talk about Championship m v P Miles Gaskin,

188
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: who went out and had himself a pretty good day

189
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: against the Raiders. That was on Saturday night in Las Vegas.

190
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: A wild finish to that game between Miami and Vegas there,

191
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: but Gaston with a couple of touchdowns doing big things.

192
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: So let's put the over under at the third round

193
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: for Gascon. Are you taking him earlier later? Right there

194
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: in the third round? What are you? How are you

195
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: feeling about Gaskin right now? I'm like, I'm a late

196
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: second round, early third round type of situation I think

197
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: happening with Myles Gaskin. The good thing is that we

198
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: know that Toua is going to be their longtime quarterback.

199
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: Even though he got pulled and fits Magic went in

200
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 1: and secured that dub. We love him the amazing no

201
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: look pass. Who's now usurped Patrick Mahomes on that one.

202
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: But we know that Toua is going to be their

203
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: long time quarterback. This season was a very good experiment

204
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: for seeing how he's going to utilize his running back

205
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 1: with that offense. This is good for Miles Gascon because

206
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: he's had continued production week after week after week. He's

207
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: had double digit fantasy points in every single game played

208
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: except for one this season. I think he's going to

209
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: be a sneaky guy who's going to carry some people's

210
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: fantasy teams next season. I know what I loved about

211
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: the Dolphins this year is that they were pretty much

212
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: a one back team. I mean, they had guys, they

213
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 1: had multiple guys who could be productive. We saw that

214
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: when Gasking got hurt and Savan Akhmed stepped in and

215
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: played well for a few games. But generally speaking, they

216
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: picked a guy and they just gave him the work.

217
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: And we should all be grateful for that, right. I Mean,

218
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: we complained all year long about these multiheaded attacks, whether

219
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: it was your Faltimore or Indie or the Rams or

220
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: what have you. The fact that the Dolphins are like, Hey,

221
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: this is our guy, We're just gonna roll with him.

222
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: That's great. And so if we can really count on

223
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: that next year, if if it looks like they really

224
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: do believe in Miles Gascon, and I think they do

225
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 1: then I wouldn't have a problem. I would like to

226
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: wait till the third round. That might not be possible.

227
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: We'll see where the hype train goes for Miles Gaskon

228
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: this offseason. But they really just want to give one

229
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: guy to work, and they're building something really kind of

230
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: fun with toa with some good young wide receivers, whether

231
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: it's Preston Williams when he's healthy, Davante Parker, Mike Sicky.

232
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 1: This is a kind of an interesting offense. So I

233
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: do think that Miles Gaskin has a really interesting fantasy

234
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: future ahead of him, and I think he's gonna be

235
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: one of those guys that we're talking about easily in

236
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: the first three rounds in a lot of fantasy leaks.

237
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: All right, So enough of the good. Let's just let's

238
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: just get this. Let's get this out of the way.

239
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: The Fantasy Championship, the l VPS, the least valuable players.

240
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: Normally we just we call this. I'm salty, and maybe

241
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: this is just an extended, uh extra salty, seasoned salt

242
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: version if you will, of that. Um, we're gonna start

243
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,079
Speaker 1: with Josh Jacobs and I talked about Miles Gascon and

244
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: how great he was Josh Jacobs not really so great, Kimmy.

245
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: And then the worst part was late in that game,

246
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 1: the Raiders, thinking they were going to set it up

247
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: to kick a what would have been a game winning

248
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: field goal. Josh Jacobs, as you see on your screen there,

249
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: uh slides down short of the goal line on a

250
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: couple of opportunities, had a chance to score, did not

251
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: take it. I don't know if somebody reminded him of

252
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley earlier in the year, or what the deal was.

253
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: Of course, the Raiders kicked the field goal. Then Ryan

254
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick brings the Dolphins back hether way, they kick a

255
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: game winning field goal. So, Kimmy, I mean, just obviously

256
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: it sort of stinks that that Jacobs didn't have a

257
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: great day, But why didn't he score? That would have

258
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: changed the complexion of everything, both for the Raiders and

259
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: for Fantasy. If he scores, Why why didn't it happen?

260
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 1: Because we cannot have nice things, don't you know that?

261
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: I mean, look at look at our world, look at

262
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: where we're at. This is this is just a result

263
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: of that. No, in all seriousness, I think this was

264
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: so incredibly intentional. But because you have seen Josh Jacobs

265
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: be incredibly vocal on social media as of late, saying,

266
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: fantasy football managers, stop tweeting at me. I don't care

267
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 1: about fantasy. I'm sorry. If I won you a game,

268
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: I lost you a game. I do not care. And

269
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: I think that was a huge kind of middle finger

270
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: to us. And in a reminder, do not tweet at

271
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: NFL players if they do not get you fantasy points

272
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: for a certain week. There are people they are paid

273
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 1: to play a game, not to win US Fantasy Football championship.

274
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: So that was his middle finger to say, hey, look,

275
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: you can't have nice things. Stop tweeting at me, and

276
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: I'm going to ruin your day. Jeff Jacobs has not

277
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: made a lot of friends in the fantasy community the

278
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 1: last few weeks. He had that tweet a few weeks ago,

279
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: or was an Instagram post whatever it was that said

280
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm not playing, although I admittedly sort of took it

281
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: a different way as in like I'm not playing around y'all,

282
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: like you know, start me whatever. Anyway, I just know,

283
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: I just know that he has sort of needled a

284
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: lot of people in fantasy. I'm not saying that this

285
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: is you know, reason or excuse to go weet nasty,

286
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: mean things that him. Don't do that. Um, but it

287
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: has become a very antagonistic relationship between Josh Jacobs and

288
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 1: fantasy managers for the last few weeks. I'm just curious.

289
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 1: I have no answer to this. I'm wondering whether or

290
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: not people are gonna have hurt feelings and remember this

291
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: next year come draft time and maybe not draft Josh Jacobs. Um.

292
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna lose any sleep over that,

293
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: whether it happens or not. I just know that we

294
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: can be a petty lot and maybe maybe this is

295
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: what happens next year. Who knows. Um. So I was

296
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: about the forty Niners and their big win over the

297
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. Part of how they did that was really

298
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: putting a leash on Tyler Murray. And Tyler had a

299
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: big game against the Niners early in the season, not

300
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: so much in Week sixteen when fantasy managers and the

301
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: Cardinals frankly needed him to go and have a big day. Uh.

302
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: Rush yards are nice, but no touchdowns. Had an interception

303
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: that was really costly in that game. I mean came,

304
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: this was maybe the worst possible time for Kyler to

305
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: go out and have one of his worst games. And

306
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: it's so tough because we understand that he's been dealing

307
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: with a shoulder injury and he's had some regression kind

308
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: of the latter half of the season. Since Week et eleven,

309
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: he's only put up twenty plus fantasy points just twice,

310
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: whereas the first what six seven, eight weeks of the season,

311
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: he was consistently putting up fantasy points. I don't know

312
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: if it's the injury. I don't know if if the

313
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: forty nine is just completely you know, looked at their

314
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: season opener against the Cardinals and figured out, you know,

315
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: what his run routes were and tried to lock them

316
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: down as best they could. But you're right, you don't

317
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: want fifteen fantasy points from your starting quarterback during the

318
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: Fantasy Championship. So I think this will be kind of interesting.

319
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: Again the point you kind of raised about Josh Jacobs, like,

320
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: will fantasy football managers look at the latter half of

321
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: the season from Kyler Murray and start to second guess

322
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: where he comes off the board during the quarterbackgrounds of drafts.

323
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: I think it will be interesting because we understand he's

324
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: still mobile and he's still great, but a lot of

325
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: fantasy managers we we are, we are salty people. We

326
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: remember the hurt and the pain. So I wonder if

327
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: this is going to hurt him down the line. He

328
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: will be a very intriguing case study in the off

329
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: season because right now he is the QB one overall, uh,

330
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: just about about half a point ahead of Patrick Mahomes. Um.

331
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: I suspect that Kyler is going to take the number

332
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: one spot, just because I would be surprised if if

333
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: Mahomes plays a full game next week, UM, with the

334
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: Chiefs having locked everything up already, not really having much

335
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: to play for, I think Mahomes plays, maybe he plays

336
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: a half. Kyler has to play the full game because

337
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: the Cardinals need to win in order to try to

338
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: get into the playoffs. So I think he's gonna be

339
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 1: the number one quarterback. But I do think it's gonna

340
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: be sort of a tale of two halves and which

341
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: half do people remember the most, Which half do people

342
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: think is closer to the real Kyler? And that will

343
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: impact where he comes off the board and drafts. I

344
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: still think next year you're talking about him as second

345
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: or third quarterback taken overall. Um, But I do wonder

346
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: whether or not maybe he gets bumped down around or

347
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 1: two just because of him sort of fading down the

348
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: stretch for the Cardinals and for fantasy managers as well.

349
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 1: Um So full disclosure here. When I was putting together

350
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: this this rundown with the help of our faithful producer

351
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: Hythem Kalani, we were trying to figure out who's a

352
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: third l v P to talk about. And even though

353
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: Hytham and I were sort of talking about this over slack,

354
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: I could imagine sort of an evil grinch like smile

355
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: pulling up over our faces, knowing that we were gonna

356
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: have to, you know, make Kimmy talk about a Chief

357
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: as an l v P because we talked about the

358
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: Chiefs having a struggle against against the Falcons. On Sunday,

359
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes ended up with a decent day, wasn't you know,

360
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: a bananas day like we thought it was going to

361
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 1: be in Tyreek Hill just barely tim Fantasy points. And

362
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: you want to talk about a guy that we were

363
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: writing and we're counting on to kind of disappear in

364
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: a in a big spot, it was just he looked human, Kimmy.

365
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: I mean, we hadn't seen it all year, but but

366
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill was just a mere mortal on Sunday. It's weird.

367
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: I know what is happening. Like this is a week

368
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 1: where I had I was like, oh, Patrick Mahomes and

369
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, this is gonna be the number one stack

370
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: of Week sixteen. These guys are gonna put up like

371
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 1: eighty fantasy points. The reality was that wasn't the case.

372
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 1: This game between the Chiefs and the Falcons was way

373
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: closer than we had thought. The Chiefs only led a

374
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: few different times during the game. It was really close,

375
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 1: with Matt Ryan firing to Calvin Ridley and having some

376
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: really good opportunities and passes and Calvin really getting into

377
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: the end zone. Now, this Tyreek Hill issue, I think

378
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: the reality is is that maybe he was a little

379
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 1: bit hurt because he did pop up on the injury

380
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 1: list last week dealing with the hamstring issue. Even though

381
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: he did play. I just don't think the offense was

382
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: firing as powerfully as they normally do. We did see that,

383
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 1: you know, Patrick Mahomes Travis Kelsey connection, but Tyreek was

384
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 1: quiet and maybe he was just dealing with the hamstring.

385
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: You know, they want to try and keep him and

386
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 1: the rest of their offensive weapons as healthy as possible

387
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 1: as we go into this playoff push and make sure

388
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: that we go head to the super Bowl two times

389
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,239
Speaker 1: in a row. So it's okay to be salty, but

390
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about Tyreek Hill and the long haul,

391
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: even though more than ten fantasy points would have been

392
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: really nice. The Chiefs right now, especially the last seven

393
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 1: or eight weeks, I think they are they're sort of

394
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 1: like the person in the long drive contests, like on

395
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 1: a golf course, right like they know what they need

396
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: to beat the other team and they pulled just enough

397
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: club out of the bag to get the win. I

398
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 1: think there, you know, I can see maybe in the

399
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 1: playoffs maybe they turn it up a notch uh and

400
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: and they unleash hell on some other defenses. But in

401
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: the last couple of months, it's like, you know, they're

402
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 1: They're like an NBA team that knows they're good enough

403
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 1: to win a title, and it's like, we're not gonna

404
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 1: go all out and kill ourselves in the regular season.

405
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: We're getting ready for the playoffs. And I think that's

406
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,479
Speaker 1: sort of where the Chiefs are right now. They know

407
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: what it takes to win a super Bowl. They have

408
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 1: all the pieces it takes. Let's let's just do just

409
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: enough right now, because we know we can win most

410
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: weeks um and maybe that's what it is. That's great

411
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: for the Chiefs, not so great for us because we want,

412
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: we really do want them to unleash hell each and

413
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: every week because we're greedy and we just want as

414
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: many fantasy points as we possibly could. So I'm sure

415
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: there's gonna be somebody out there who wins despite getting

416
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 1: ten and a half points from Tyreek Hill. There might

417
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: be some other folks who end up coming up short

418
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: because they needed more from Tyreek Hill. Uh. Sorry, I

419
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: don't really have any other analysis for you. I don't

420
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,199
Speaker 1: have any other analysis for you beyond that. I mean,

421
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: at this point, it is what it is. You put

422
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: your best line up out there, and sometimes it's good enough,

423
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: and uh and sometimes it is not all right. Today's

430
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: because I mean, why wouldn't evervie. It's weeks sixteen, as

431
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 1: we are wrapping up for a lot of people fantasy

432
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: championship weeks. So I know that for some people out there,

433
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: this game does determine who wins their league title, and

434
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: there are some interesting pieces going in this one. The

435
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: Bills and the Patriots. Buffalo wrapped up its first division

436
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: title since last week. But for me, this this seems

437
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,640
Speaker 1: like an opportunity to really go out and make a statement.

438
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,959
Speaker 1: Not only have you won the division, but you can

439
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: go into the Patriots house, the team that has just

440
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 1: dominated the the a f C East for so many years, uh,

441
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: and really make a statement to kind of just put

442
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: a final nail in their coffin the Patriots, you're not

443
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 1: not going to the playoffs for the first time in

444
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: a while two eight, I believe. But for the Bills,

445
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: I think this is a this is a chance to

446
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: kind of flex and really make a statement. But we're

447
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: here to talk some fantasy football about it. So Kimmy

448
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs has been great all year long. Uh, you know,

449
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: he is one of the top wide receivers. In fact,

450
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 1: he is the wide receiver four as we sit here

451
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 1: and talk right now. Your projection point wise for him

452
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: tonight against the Patriots tonight, I got him just around

453
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: twenty one fantasy points. I feel like he's going to

454
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: do that with ease now. It was interesting. I wanted

455
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 1: to look up his points for the season and look

456
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: at his touchdowns. He's only scored five touchdowns this season,

457
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: but he's had double digit fantasy points in every single game,

458
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: play back in Week fifteen. So last week him and

459
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: Josh Allen were the number one stack in fantasy football.

460
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,360
Speaker 1: I think they put up over sixty three fantasy points combined,

461
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: and they did it without even connecting for a touchdown.

462
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 1: It's the receiving yards and the yards after the catch

463
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: that Stefon Diggs is so good at, and that's I

464
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: don't know. I just found that really interesting. I thought

465
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: that was like a fun little fantasy nugget because I

466
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: think a lot of times we just associate with people

467
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: being really good fantasy players if they get into the

468
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: end zone. But with Stefon Diggs that doesn't even need

469
00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: to be the case. Yeah, that's that's what's been amazing

470
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: about him, the number of targets, the number of catches,

471
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 1: the yards he's putting up. I think for a lot

472
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: of people who watched him in Minnesota all those years,

473
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: they just wanted him to get more targets and more opportunities.

474
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: Becomes the Buffalo and that happens. I have him going

475
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: kind of big tonight. I've got him with twenty six points.

476
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: I like I said, I think, I think I do.

477
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 1: I think this is a flex moment for the Bills,

478
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: and I think Stefon Diggs and Josh Allen really gonna

479
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: go and show out tonight against New England, especially in Foxborough.

480
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 1: I just think there's no there's no better way to

481
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: kind of punctuate what has been a great season for

482
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 1: this team. I mean, I think I've had him. I

483
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 1: think I sort of projected him about tim catches somewhere

484
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: around uh close to a hundred yards and a touchdown,

485
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: which you know he would get get his six touchdown

486
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: of the year. It just seems like a perfect way

487
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: to go out, and especially for anybody who might need

488
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 1: a big game from Stefon Diggs to maybe squeak by

489
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: in their their fantasy championship game. Phil confident I think you.

490
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: I think you might be feeling okay about it this week. Um.

491
00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: The Bills running backs have been a different story. They've

492
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: got up with guys who I think of talented in

493
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary and Zack Moss. But as long as Josh

494
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: Allen is upright and breathing, they're not going to get

495
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: a whole lot of opportunity to put up big fantasy days.

496
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 1: I don't think a lot of people are starting them

497
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: in season long leagues. Maybe you are, in which case

498
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: god speed. But if we're talking to DFS and you're

499
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: putting together a DFS slate forward tonight, would you consider

500
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: either anybody in that backfield for one of those lineups?

501
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: You know, I did. I put up a Draft King's

502
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: lineup today because I was just curious. I wanted to see,

503
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 1: you know, how how much people were going for and

504
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 1: what this game kind of would look like. And I

505
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 1: actually did put Zach Moss into my lineup. The Patriots

506
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: defense they've improved the last few weeks, but they're still

507
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: struggling against the run. We understand that Zack Moss has

508
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: such a better upside because of those goal line looks

509
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: and his touches I think, you know, he has a

510
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: lot more relevance than Devon Singletary. He's proved that as

511
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,400
Speaker 1: of late. So in my DFS lineup, I was rocking

512
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: with Zach Moss, and I feel like a lot of

513
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,199
Speaker 1: people could look for that option as kind of a

514
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: guy who is a little bit cheaper but could have

515
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,919
Speaker 1: some decent production tonight. I mean, I guess if I

516
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: would pick one, that would be the one. But at

517
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 1: this point, I think I'm just I'm just staying away

518
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: from all of them because they have been just so

519
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: inconsistent and chances are when they get close, it's gonna

520
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: be Josh Allen getting the ball down there. That being said,

521
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: I don't know that the Patriots offer a lot of

522
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: better options. We've seen Sony Michelle the last couple of

523
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,119
Speaker 1: weeks get more touches, especially with Damien Harris not healthy.

524
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: Maybe you you give James White some run something because

525
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 1: you know he's gonna get those targets. It's not a

526
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,440
Speaker 1: great running back game on either side, I guess, is

527
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to say. But but yeah, I I'm

528
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: sort of with you. I could probably talk myself into

529
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: a Zach Moss because he seems to be the guy

530
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: maybe with the most touchdown upside. It's weird because, um,

531
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: you've got two quarterbacks in this game who are essentially

532
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 1: their team's de facto goal line backs. I mean, Cam

533
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: Newton has made a whole career off of scoring rushing

534
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: touchdowns from Carolinas and now uh and Josh Alan doing

535
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: the same in his relatively short career up there in Buffalo.

536
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: So that really takes the shine off of any of

537
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: the running backs in this game, knowing that when they

538
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 1: get down close, chances are you're gonna have your big,

539
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: strong quarterback just reached the ball over the goal line

540
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: and scored the touchdown for you. So that that is

541
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,959
Speaker 1: a frustration point, I think for me for anybody in

542
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: this game. Um, speaking of the Patriots, are there any

543
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: Patriots you would consider starting in this one? No? Sorry, Bob. No.

544
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 1: Isn't that weird that it's Week sixteen, It's the New

545
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: England Patriots and here we are saying no, I wouldn't

546
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 1: start any of them. Obviously, it's a new and a

547
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,439
Speaker 1: different offense with Tom Brady being gone and Cam Newton

548
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 1: taking over. I think maybe early on in the season,

549
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: if I had to pick a player. I would have

550
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 1: picked Cam, but we've seen him kind of struggle, kind

551
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: of a struggling as of late. That was hard to

552
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: get out. Uh, it's it's it's a note for me, dog,

553
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm with you. The passing game for New England has

554
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 1: just been miserable. Um, Cam with single digit passing touchdowns.

555
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: I think he's got like twice as many machine touchdowns

556
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: or something close to it this year. Uh, it has

557
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: not been great. Talked about the fact that I don't

558
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 1: love the running backs necessarily. The wide receivers haven't done

559
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: much to to grab your attention. So it is a

560
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 1: hard argument to make to start any Patriots in this

561
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 1: game here and again if you were forced to start

562
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 1: them in your championship week. Um, first off, I'm amazed.

563
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: I'm amazed you made it this far. Good on you, congratulations.

564
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: I'm best of luck tonight because it just doesn't seem

565
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: to be great, especially because honestly, the Bill's defense has

566
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 1: really turned it up a notch uh in the last

567
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 1: few weeks as well, so that that just makes the

568
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: matchup what was already not a great matchup, makes it

569
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 1: even tougher. So best of luck. If you were starting

570
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 1: any Patriots in this one. All right, friends, don't let

571
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: friends play Week seventeen. But for those of you out

572
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: there who seemed to be, uh, you know, playing four

573
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 1: D chess, here's look at some wave of wire targets

574
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: potentially four weeks seventeen. If you're looking at quarterbacks Philip

575
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 1: Rivers Daniel Jones. Jones has a matchup but finish now

576
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: the season with the Dallas Cowboys, although the Cowboys have

577
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,640
Speaker 1: proven to maybe be a little bit tougher the last

578
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: few weeks than we had anticipated. Running Back Tony Pollard, Now,

579
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 1: I know he didn't do much yesterday, but the matchup

580
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: seems to be okay, and you think the touches potentially

581
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: will be there. Who knows, but if you need depth, uh,

582
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 1: you're playing Week seventeen. Get all the help you cans.

583
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard, Jeff Wilson, who looked great against the Cardinals

584
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 1: on Saturday, wide receiver Nelson Aghaloor who has had a

585
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: very good year and had a big, big touchdown catch

586
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: for the Raiders late in that game, and the Kiki Qt.

587
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 1: I know the Texans passing game is kind of a

588
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: mess right now, but Cutie is gonna get some targets.

589
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: They're probably other guys out there if you're really willing

590
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: to dig deep, uh, if you really want to sort

591
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: of try to play the odds too and maybe get

592
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: some backup quarterbacks or back up whatever is, and they're

593
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: good for you. All right. That takes this two performance

594
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: Ready presented by Castrol Edge. We always do checks Marks

595
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: the Spot around this time on Monday's in the show,

596
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: and since we're talking Waiver Wire, it felt like it'd

597
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 1: be good to talk about some of the big weaver

598
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: Wire pickups of It was always a handful of guys.

599
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: Usually we identify them early in the season. They weren't drafted,

600
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 1: but they make a splash immediately ended up being productive

601
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: all season long. So I got three right here. We

602
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: can talk him around and then you guys can all

603
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: vote on which one you think is the waiver pickup

604
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: of the year. Let's start with James Robinson because why not,

605
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 1: um did not play on Sunday, but that still doesn't

606
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 1: diminish what he has done all year long. H to me,

607
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 1: this is a guy that nobody really knew his name

608
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 1: unless you really went deep uh into rosters if you

609
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: were a Jaguars fan maybe, but ended up being a

610
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: household fantasy name by the time this season was over.

611
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: I mean, he was really great this year, from undrafted

612
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: free agent to the fantasy running back number four on

613
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: the season as of right now, ten total touchdowns, double

614
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: digit fantasy points in every single game. Plate Now, I

615
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: know that he didn't suit up yesterday and we all

616
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: had a hard time figuring out who the other running

617
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 1: back for Jacksonville was because James Robinson has been the

618
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 1: guy doing it all season long. He was involved not

619
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: only in the run game, but over there in the

620
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 1: passing game as well. I think now it's going to

621
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: be very interesting to see what this offense could look

622
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: like and what they're going to be able to do

623
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: with James Robinson. If they go out and secure Trevor

624
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: Lawrence now that Jacksonville has officially secured themselves the number

625
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: one draft pick in this offense is going to get

626
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 1: a really big boost potentially, you know, if Trevor Lawrence

627
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: turns out to be the guy that everybody really believes

628
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: he can be. But Robinson was great, I'm also curious

629
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 1: what happens with the other running backs on this team

630
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: because Robinson ended up having no competition in part because

631
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: the Requil Armstead was on the COVID list all year long,

632
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: and we certainly hope that he's able to recover and

633
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 1: you know, at least get healthy. Whether he plays football

634
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,719
Speaker 1: will discuss that later, but you know, the Vinyl Zigbo

635
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 1: was was injured for most of the year, there really

636
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: was no competition. And whether or not the Jaguars will

637
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 1: do that again in one remains to be seen. But

638
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: but this year absolutely a magical season for James Robinson. Nonetheless,

639
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: next one on the list Justin Herbert, And when we

640
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: talked about quarterbacks at the start of the year, rookie quarterbacks,

641
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: he seemed to be running in third place. I mean,

642
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: there was Joe Burrow, there was two a tonk of ivioloa,

643
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: and then there was Justin Herbert. And then when you

644
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: figure Burrow unfortunately gets hurt midway through the season too,

645
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: it doesn't start until late in the year. Herbert gets

646
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: the starting job through weird and unfortunate circumstances with Tyrod

647
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: Taylor having a serious medical issue, but he took the

648
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 1: job and just ran with it. Kimmy and I don't

649
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: know that anybody anticipated Justin Herbert being the rookie quarterback

650
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 1: we talked about for the course of pretty much sixteen weeks.

651
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 1: But but he was another guy who was just amazing

652
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: this year. He's amazing and now he's in the conversation

653
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: for Offensive Rookie of the Year, which is impressive. Now

654
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: I want to talk about Justin Herbert without looking at

655
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: the Chargers uh their record, because I don't think that

656
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: currently reflects how good he's been all season. Twenty seven

657
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: passing touchouts, oh, twenty eight passing touchdowns this season, most

658
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: by rooking quarterback in NFL history, had four rushing touchdowns

659
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: that he got in for himself. Seven games played with

660
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 1: three hundred pat three hundred plus passing yards. He only

661
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 1: had one game this season with less than two hundred.

662
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: I think that Joe Burrow could be and will be

663
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: potentially a top five fantasy quarterback in look Herbert. We

664
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: I talked about this with with Michael left Florio a

665
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago about where we'd be willing to

666
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: take Justin Herbert next year, and we both sort of

667
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 1: settled on him being the QB eight off the board. Um,

668
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 1: and that seems about right. That feels about right, And

669
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: what was great was not only was Herbert successful, but

670
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 1: he breathed life into Chena Allen and made keenan Allen,

671
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 1: you know, a a legit top ten wide receiver after

672
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: we doubted whether or not he could be that this year. Um,

673
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: you know, when they got Austin Ekeler back, the connection

674
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: between her and Eckler was just as good as it

675
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 1: had been with Philip Rivers in the past. So this

676
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: is the guy who stepped up and played really good

677
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: football this year, and on top of it, gave you

678
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 1: some kind of sneaky rushing numbers. Again, you're not going

679
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: to confuse him with Kyler Murray or Lamar Jackson or

680
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 1: or even Russell Wilson, but he did just enough with

681
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: his legs to kind of give you a fairly safe floor.

682
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: Has four rushing touchdowns this year, really kind of gave

683
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: you a little bit of everything. And again this is

684
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 1: a guy that no one was anticipating seeing on the field,

685
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: at least not seeing much of this year, but jumped

686
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: in was was thrown into the deep end by the

687
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 1: charges because he had to be uh and I thought

688
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: swam incredibly well this year in that offense. Um, the

689
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: third option we had here, Antonio Gibson who was really

690
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 1: a late summer hype bunny. Uh and then you know,

691
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: the the the c's parted and the pathway was cleared

692
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: for Antonio Gibson to be the RB one in Washington

693
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: and really took advantage of it. It took maybe you know,

694
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks for him to kind of get

695
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: his feet underneath him, but what he did was really great.

696
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: Has battled some injuries sort of late in the season,

697
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: but has been a do it all guy there. You

698
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,800
Speaker 1: see the eleven touchdowns that he's got this year. Um, Jimmy,

699
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 1: I mean, we we thought much of him, but he delivered.

700
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: I mean it's one of those situations and we don't

701
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 1: see it a lot though, where a guy sort of

702
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 1: lives up to the hype and I thought that. I

703
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: thought that Antonio Gipson did that very well this year.

704
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: He did, and he was able to sustain even with

705
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: all of those changes at quarterback throughout the season, which

706
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: is one of the most impressive parts. I think some

707
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: guys you can see them fade and feasible because they

708
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: don't still have that relationship in that connection. But when

709
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 1: the Washington football team needs him to deliver, he steps

710
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: up and does just that right now. He is the

711
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: running back number thirteen in fantasy football, a really good

712
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: stat and a finish for a guy who, like you said,

713
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 1: kind of popped off the second half of the season.

714
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: So yes, he's the league MVP for a lot of people,

715
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: who was a kind of a surprising one. Absolutely, it's

716
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: sort of stunk to see him get hurt when he

717
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: did late in the season. I mean, you know, he

718
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 1: had been playing really, really well, and I'm sure Washington

719
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: would have loved to have him because you know, they're

720
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 1: still battling for a division title in a playoffs spot.

721
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 1: But we really thought he was gonna be good. And

722
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,919
Speaker 1: what was amazing to me is that he really took

723
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,800
Speaker 1: the role of running back. When he was in college,

724
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 1: he was kind of a hybrid, but I think he

725
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 1: spent more time sort of line up wide as a

726
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: pass catcher. But this year he really took to the

727
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: role of running back and excelled with it. So it

728
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: would be great to see him continue to flourish in

729
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 1: that role next year, uh and see what he could do.

730
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: But they're going to be a ton of running backs

731
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 1: we see come off the board within the first three

732
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,959
Speaker 1: rounds Antonio Gibson I think is easily one of those.

733
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 1: We're probably talking about him as a late second round

734
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: pick in a lot of fantasy leagues this year. So uh,

735
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 1: those are our three options there between James Robinson, Justin Herbert,

736
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: and Antonio Gibson for our waiver wire pick of the year.

737
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 1: You can go and vote on who you think deserves

738
00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: that title. You can go to Kimmy's page on Twitter

739
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,479
Speaker 1: at Kimmy Chicks and vote for you who you think

740
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: is the waiver wire pickup of Okay, we are looking

741
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:12,360
Speaker 1: ahead to one and we are putting together our first

742
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: mock draft of the off season. It's not even the

743
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,839
Speaker 1: off season yet, there's still more football to be played,

744
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: but we're gonna do our first mock draft of the

745
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 1: year one through tin just one round between me and Kimmy.

746
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: I will allow you to have the first pick. So

747
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,879
Speaker 1: where are you going with the one dot O one.

748
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: I'm giving you a Curtsey for allowing me have the

749
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: first Are you ready for this drum role because I'm

750
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: bringing the hot fire with this very first pick. I'm

751
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 1: going with Dalvin Cook as my r B one one

752
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 1: point one of my one way too early mock draft

753
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook has been good. He is a fantasy running

754
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 1: back number two only behind Alvin Camara. He scored at

755
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: least a touchdown and every game played but three this

756
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,560
Speaker 1: season seventeen total tds in I like this guy. We

757
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 1: know that they already have their other offensive weapons. We

758
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: know that Kirk Cousins already has this relationship with Dalvin Cook.

759
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: We don't need to worry about new receivers coming in

760
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:10,479
Speaker 1: and taking away the production. I like Dalvin Cook. It's

761
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: I think that's not a terrible pick. And last year

762
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 1: in the off season, I suggested Dalvin Cook be concluded

763
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,479
Speaker 1: in the conversation, mostly because I wanted a talking point.

764
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: But the way the season has gone, it is born

765
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: out that he is at least worthy of being in

766
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 1: the discussion. So at the number two spots, since he

767
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: fell from his perch atop the rankings, I'm gonna take

768
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. And obviously this year has been a lost

769
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 1: season as he has dealt with injuries, but when he

770
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 1: was healthy and on the field, he was still incredibly

771
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 1: productive for the Panthers. And what I still believe in

772
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 1: with him is that he is going to get the

773
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 1: majority of the snaps. When he's healthy, he's going to

774
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: be on the field pretty much all the time. He

775
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 1: is going to get a ton of touches and continue

776
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,479
Speaker 1: to be productive with them. And I think we saw

777
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: how great his season was a couple of years ago

778
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 1: based on the way Mike Davis sort of faded over

779
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: the stretch. So I still think despite the injuries, despite

780
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 1: not being on the field much this year, Christian McCaffrey

781
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 1: is still going to be a guy that goes very

782
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: high in a lot of drafts. I think he'll still

783
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,479
Speaker 1: be the number one overall picking a lot of drafts.

784
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't be surprised if you see him fall

785
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: down a spot ward two. All right, onto the number

786
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,720
Speaker 1: three pick, Kimmy, where are you going with that one? Alright?

787
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: Number three pick. It was a guy that we were

788
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: just talking about, and no one roast me on Twitter.

789
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 1: I love how we do these mock drops and everyone's like,

790
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,919
Speaker 1: it's so good, that's amst rate. It is a way

791
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: too early mock drafts. Let me preface it with that,

792
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: But you have to look at the guy we were

793
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 1: just talking about. James Robins said, I'm going to get

794
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: him at number three currently, RB number four, even though

795
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,360
Speaker 1: he did not play in Week sixteen. Like I said,

796
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a new and revitalized offense, especially

797
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,879
Speaker 1: if they go out and get Trevor Lawrence. Jacksonville has

798
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: to reward this guy for playing as well as he

799
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 1: did this season. We know his involvement and not only

800
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 1: the run game, but the passing game as well. Dual

801
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,840
Speaker 1: threat ability. Him and Trevor Lawrence are going to be incredible.

802
00:38:56,120 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 1: I love an undrafted rookie, so James Robinson do not

803
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 1: disappoint me next season. I love the spice with that

804
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 1: James Robinson at number three overall pick, and that allows

805
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: me to take another guy who falls a little bit

806
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: in the draft, another guy who was hurt for most

807
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 1: of the year, and that was sa Kwan Barkley. And

808
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 1: I sort of feel about sa Kwan the way I

809
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: feel about Christian McCaffrey, that when he's healthy and he's available,

810
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: he's going to be on the field for you know,

811
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: nine of the snaps. He's going to be the guy

812
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,240
Speaker 1: that dominates the touches in the backfield. Wayne Gallman stepped

813
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: in and I thought did a very admirable job this year,

814
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 1: but he still knows Sa Kuan and and all the

815
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: things the Giants can do with se Kwan in that

816
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: offense make him worth still being a top five pick.

817
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see how people are going to view

818
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 1: him in general, whether or not he maybe he stays

819
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: in the top three or if he falls a little

820
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: bit based on this past year. But if I ended

821
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: up with se Kwan in the top four, I'm still

822
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 1: gonna feel pretty confident about what I can get from

823
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,920
Speaker 1: him production one. So he's he's the number four pick

824
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: for me overall, number five. Who are you looking at?

825
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 1: Number five? Not a's spicy. It's a guy who's been

826
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: consistent the last few years. Mr. December my friends. Actually

827
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 1: I don't know him at all, but I wish we

828
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 1: were friends. Derrick Henry l Tractor Cito. We understand how

829
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 1: good he is fantasy running back number three on the season,

830
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: fifteen touchdowns this year, we understand. I mean, there's not

831
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 1: really much to say about Derrick Henry. We I think,

832
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: if anything, people were scared he was going to have

833
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,479
Speaker 1: some regression this season, but that was not the case.

834
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 1: I see him being a huge factor again in Fantasy football. One.

835
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is going to be a beast um. And

836
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: if the Titans ever start throwing him the football the

837
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: way they keep threatening to, I mean, seriously, if if

838
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 1: if we start to believe next offseason that he's going

839
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,399
Speaker 1: to be more involved in the passing game and catch

840
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: more passes, I think we really are talking about Derrick.

841
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 1: Henry is the number one overall pick considering how effective

842
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: he is running the football. So I take this to

843
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 1: number six. It's gonna be a first non running back.

844
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 1: I want to go with Davante Adams here because the

845
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: dude has just been phenomenal. I mean, we we saw

846
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 1: it in Week sixteen, the game in the snow against

847
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans. Adams went out and bawled out a

848
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: hundred and forty two yards and three touchdowns in that one.

849
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: And he is right now the wide receiver one. We'll

850
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 1: see if Stefan de Stefan Di is not gonna catch.

851
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: I mean, he's still seventy some odd points behind. We'll

852
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: see what happens with Tyreek Hill as the season goes on,

853
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 1: but Davonda Adams is your wide receiver one. Have he

854
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,279
Speaker 1: missed two and a half games because of an injury,

855
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: how far ahead would he be had he played every

856
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: game this year. The mind boggles at the thought. Um,

857
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: but he's just such a beast. It has been for

858
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: the past few years. And we know that when Aaron

859
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: Rodgers gets in trouble, he's looking get number seventeen. Um

860
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,799
Speaker 1: after kind of you know, everybody sort of swinging and

861
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,320
Speaker 1: missing on Michael Thomas last year. I think Davante Adams

862
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 1: graduates to being the first wide receiver off the board,

863
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 1: may even go higher than six, but putting him at

864
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: six right now, so I gets us to seven. Who

865
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: should be the seventh pick in leagues? Next? Lucky number seven?

866
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,280
Speaker 1: I have to bring some spice back. I'm a spicy

867
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: I'm a spicy little girl. Okay, I'm gonna go with

868
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor. I understand we were very frustrated with him

869
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: at times this season, but now he has solidified that

870
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: he is the lead back for that offense. And he's

871
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 1: been on a touchdown binge ever since Week fourteen. I

872
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 1: think he's had at least a touchdown in every single

873
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: game played since Week fourteen. He found his footing, he

874
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 1: understands who he is, he understands how this offense runs. Currently,

875
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 1: running back number seven double digit fantasy points in nine

876
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 1: games played this season. I think that his second season

877
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 1: is going to be an incredible one. And he is

878
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 1: my running back number What is this where this is

879
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 1: my pick number seven? But let's see, he's one to three,

880
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: four by fifth, sixth running back off the board. So

881
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: impressive for the rookie. I know, I know a lot

882
00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 1: of folks love Jonathan Taylor, and I as the season

883
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 1: went on, I started to put more stock into the

884
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 1: idea that not having a training campus sort of what

885
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: slowed some of these rookies down. We saw it with Taylor,

886
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 1: we saw it with Cam Akers, we saw it with j. K. Dobbins.

887
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: But by the time we got to the back half

888
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: of the season, I think all three of those guys

889
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: really had taken more of a lead role in their

890
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: respective back hills and Jonathan Taylor, Uh DeAndre Swift too,

891
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,720
Speaker 1: I should throw him in that mix. To Jonathan Taylor

892
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,319
Speaker 1: looks like he could be the leader among second year

893
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 1: running backs in terms of where he gets drafted next year.

894
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,360
Speaker 1: He and James Robinson gonna battle it out for that honor.

895
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 1: UH Number eight picked for me will with Tyreek hill

896
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 1: Um and we keep waiting for regression to hit this

897
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,280
Speaker 1: guy touchdown wise, and so far it hasn't seemed to happen.

898
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 1: The Chief's offense looks like it's set to be a

899
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 1: juggernaut for a number of years in a row, and

900
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill is going to be the lead wide receiver

901
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: in that offense again, regardless of what happened for with

902
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 1: him in weeks sixteen. The dude has just been amazing

903
00:43:55,880 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: seventeen total touchdowns this year, most among all wide sievers

904
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: in absolute beast weekend and week out, and would not

905
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 1: be surprised to see him around the late part of

906
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: the first round in a lot of fantasy drives. He's

907
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,360
Speaker 1: just been He's been really, really great for a number

908
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: of years now. It's just hard to deny. So Tyreek

909
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,240
Speaker 1: Hill goes at eight, who do you take at number nine?

910
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: The spice continues, Let's talk about his teammate, Travis Kelsey,

911
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 1: tight end number one in fantasy football. Travis Kelsey is

912
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: used not only as a tight end, but just as

913
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 1: a wide receiver as well. He's so big he understands

914
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 1: how to block. You have to look at what he

915
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: does after he catches the ball yards after the catch,

916
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 1: eleven touchdowns, this seat is in leading all type ends.

917
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 1: Like you said, the same argument that you make for

918
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill is the same one that could be made

919
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 1: for Travis Kelsey. This trio of Travis Kelsey, Tyreek Hill,

920
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes is the best trio in the NFL

921
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 1: right now. I know it's crazy to take a tight

922
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: end this high, but as we've seen in fantasy football,

923
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,560
Speaker 1: unless you have a guy like Travis Kelsey or George

924
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 1: Kittle when he's healthy, or Darren Waller, you have to

925
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 1: just scratch the surface and you have to crawl and

926
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,239
Speaker 1: itch and bleed your way to find a tight end

927
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 1: that can deliver on a week to week basis. So

928
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: I know this is wild, but Travis Kelsey can be

929
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,759
Speaker 1: counted on in the first round. Here's the thing. I

930
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 1: don't think it's that wild. I think what we saw

931
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: this year, I think we're gonna see a lot more

932
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,439
Speaker 1: people taking shots to Travis Kelsey in the first round.

933
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 1: And I know this has been an Adam Rank staple

934
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 1: for the last couple of years, but I do think

935
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,239
Speaker 1: more people are gonna get on board because Kelsey gives

936
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,879
Speaker 1: you that consistency um. You know, Kittle, I think you'll

937
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: see in the second round. You know, if he's healthy

938
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: again next year, Darren Waller will come off the board

939
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,399
Speaker 1: in the third round, because I think people just want

940
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 1: tight ends potentially where you can sort of set it

941
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 1: and forget it, And right now those seem to be

942
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,360
Speaker 1: the only three that really fit that category. All right,

943
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 1: So we'll round out the first round. Talked about him

944
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: at the top of the show. I couldn't let him

945
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,280
Speaker 1: get out of the first round. It's Alvin kamara um

946
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: and I think part of the reason he fell for

947
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:59,480
Speaker 1: me is not knowing what the quarterback situation is going

948
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 1: to be in New Orleans, sort of assuming that Drew

949
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,720
Speaker 1: Brees maybe playing his last games in the NFL, and

950
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:11,439
Speaker 1: the fear that if Breeze is gone that they turned

951
00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:15,319
Speaker 1: this offense over to Taysom Hill. Sean Payton obviously liked

952
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,359
Speaker 1: what he saw to Taysom Hill. They were three and

953
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,160
Speaker 1: one with him as a starter this season. He moved

954
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 1: the ball effectively, but he just didn't do much for

955
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,759
Speaker 1: the rest of the pieces in that offense. I mean,

956
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,399
Speaker 1: obviously Camara was the guy that maybe took the biggest hit,

957
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,320
Speaker 1: but if you were trying to start, you know, Michael

958
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: Thomas when he was healthy. If you were trying to

959
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 1: start Emmanuel Sanders, you just weren't getting much there because

960
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:38,400
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill still has to develop as a passer, and

961
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,719
Speaker 1: it's more likely to take off and run and sort

962
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: of create production with his legs, which just doesn't help

963
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: the guys catching the football. So I still think Kimara

964
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 1: has incredible value. I think he's still supremely talented, but

965
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 1: just sort of looking ahead and thinking that if Drew

966
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 1: Brees isn't the quarterback and then Alvin Kamara might take

967
00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 1: a big hit in his fantasy production. Not enough for

968
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 1: me to let him get out of the first round,

969
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: but enough that I would feel comfortable taking a handful

970
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 1: of other players ahead of him this year. And this

971
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,439
Speaker 1: is coming from a guy who I said last year,

972
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 1: I'm I'm smashing Camara at the third but at the

973
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,920
Speaker 1: third spot as many and as many drafts as he

974
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: can as I can, um. But next year, next year

975
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: is kind of a different story. So did you did

976
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,319
Speaker 1: you see Marcus on Twitter? This morning? It came out

977
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 1: that Drew Brees is oldest son Valen. He won his

978
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,399
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football championship because of those six touchdowns that came

979
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,480
Speaker 1: from Alvin Kamara, so I was like, oh, that's so cute.

980
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 1: And I'm like, if I'm Drew Brees, this kid, do

981
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 1: I draft Drew Brees? Do I dropped all these Saints players?

982
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 1: What happens? But regardless, Alvin Camara coming through for little Breeze.

983
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,799
Speaker 1: We love that absolutely. Although I feel like that's some

984
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 1: insider trading there right that he's sort of like, you know,

985
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 1: maniplate these things and make things happen. But hey, yeah, congratulations, that,

986
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 1: Uh that is pretty awesome. By the way, it is

987
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 1: Championship week. You know, there's only one game left, but

988
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: it's not too late to go out and get yourself

989
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 1: a fantasy trophy. You can see it over kidney shoulder.

990
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:00,680
Speaker 1: You can kind of see the base of buying there

991
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,040
Speaker 1: behind me as well. But it's a gorgeous trophy. I

992
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: has some heft to it as well. You can go

993
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 1: online and get at NFL dot com slash Fantasy Trophy.

994
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 1: It is the official fantasy football trophy of the National

995
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 1: Football League. More than anything else. You can just take it, uh,

996
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,719
Speaker 1: you know, carried around your house, take pictures with it.

997
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:18,400
Speaker 1: When we go back outside. You can just take it

998
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 1: to wherever you want and take pictures and send it

999
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: to the rest of your league mates to gloat about

1000
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: the fact that you are a Fantasy champion. Under wrap

1001
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: up the show with a little bit of what we learned.

1002
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 1: It's normally a thing I do, uh every week if

1003
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 1: you follow me on Instagram, I do a quick little

1004
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 1: videos about things I learned during the week. But I

1005
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 1: didn't really learn much this week because it was championship

1006
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,839
Speaker 1: with congrats to you if you want to title, best

1007
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:41,440
Speaker 1: of luck to you if you were still playing for

1008
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,880
Speaker 1: one tonight if you came up short condolences and go

1009
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,600
Speaker 1: get them next year. But for us, looking at what

1010
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 1: happened over the course of the season and some of

1011
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: our big takeaways and how we spin it forward to

1012
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,440
Speaker 1: next year. So for you, Kimmy, what was the big

1013
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 1: thing that you got out of and Fantasy? I think

1014
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:01,440
Speaker 1: this is like me talking to myself when I see this.

1015
00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 1: I need to replay this before draft starts. Do not

1016
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 1: go out and rush to draft a quarterback. You have

1017
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,880
Speaker 1: to look at what some streaming options and waiver wire

1018
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,240
Speaker 1: quarterbacks did for us this season. Guys like Justin Herbert,

1019
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill, now Jalen Hurts, Ryan Tannehill. All of those

1020
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,359
Speaker 1: guys were guys that you didn't need to go out

1021
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 1: and pick in the first few rounds, and they actually

1022
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: helped carry a lot of people into the Fantasy Championships.

1023
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 1: Look at the injuries that were sustained to Dak Prescott

1024
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 1: and Joe Burrow. Look at the regression from Kyler Murray

1025
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,120
Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson and even Lamar Jackson at the first

1026
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 1: part of the season. We give quarterbacks so much hype

1027
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 1: and we don't need to rush to go draft them.

1028
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,720
Speaker 1: So I'm telling myself that and reminding myself that every

1029
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: single year out from here on forward, I will sort

1030
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:51,280
Speaker 1: of piggyback on your quarterback thought and tell you that

1031
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 1: if you're drafting a quarterback, or when you're drafting a quarterback,

1032
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 1: a quarterback who can run is mandatory. It used to

1033
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: be a chea code. That was you know, the legend

1034
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: Rich Rebar who has done so much great fantasy. We're

1035
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:05,879
Speaker 1: kind of coined to that term with the quarterbacks who

1036
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,760
Speaker 1: can run are a cheap code. I think it's evolved

1037
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,040
Speaker 1: beyond that. I think it's mandatory now, like it is

1038
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 1: hard to survive without a quarterback who doesn't give you

1039
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 1: that rushing floor. You look at the top five fantasy

1040
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,279
Speaker 1: quarterbacks as we sit here right now, four of them

1041
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,520
Speaker 1: have a minimum of three hundred rushing yards. Patrick Mahomes

1042
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:24,320
Speaker 1: is sort of the low band in that group with

1043
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 1: three oh eight. Aaron Rodgers at one forty five, but

1044
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: he also has thrown forty four touchdown. So if you

1045
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,279
Speaker 1: don't get a quarterback who can run, he has to

1046
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: be exceptional in other areas. And it's so like you

1047
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 1: talk about guys like Kyler, like Josh Allen, Deshaun Watson,

1048
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,520
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Lamar Jackson, all these guys are gonna go

1049
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,960
Speaker 1: earlier in drafts because they give you that safe floor

1050
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,239
Speaker 1: week to week. Even Ryan Tannehill, who got out of

1051
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:51,040
Speaker 1: the pocket and had a long rushing touchdown on Sunday

1052
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:52,840
Speaker 1: Night football, is a guy you can keep an eye on.

1053
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,960
Speaker 1: So this has become not just a luxury, I think

1054
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 1: it's become almost a necessity in terms of having a

1055
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: quarterback that is going to help keep you afloat on

1056
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 1: a week to week basis. That means guys like Tom Brady,

1057
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 1: for instance, are gonna go a little bit later in draft.

1058
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,439
Speaker 1: You know that the Matthew Staffords of the world. Those

1059
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: sort of guys are gonna start to follow and draft

1060
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 1: something because they don't give you that safe rushing floor. Um, Jimmy,

1061
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,600
Speaker 1: this is our last Monday streaming show. Will still have

1062
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,640
Speaker 1: the audio podcast coming. It has been great having you here.

1063
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Uh. We talked about some of the

1064
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,759
Speaker 1: great rookies we've had this year. You have been I

1065
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 1: think an incredible rookie on our show this year, So

1066
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 1: I appreciate you being a part of the show this year.

1067
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 1: Thank you, Marcus, thank you, to you to Christie behind

1068
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 1: the scenes hype them. Thank you so much for all

1069
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 1: the people who helped steer the ship. This is a

1070
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 1: crazy season. I'm so tired of saying twenty twenty is unprecedented,

1071
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 1: but it was unprecedented, so incredibly impressive that we had

1072
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,280
Speaker 1: a full season of fantasy football. Now we are crowning

1073
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 1: fantasy champions and we're being crazy and doing we two

1074
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,479
Speaker 1: early mark draft, So all all the debauchery we are back.

1075
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:58,319
