51
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: our top headlines, the camera highlights in the world of

52
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: streaking breaking news, breaking whistle likely continue to follow breaking news. Alright,

53
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: We'll start in Baltimore, Broschard Perriman is never gonna play

54
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: football again. No, I, I kid, I kid look sharp.

55
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: Peman Um there was a report of a partially torn

56
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: a c L. Remember he hasn't played a single snap

57
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL yet. He reportedly was supposed to go

58
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 1: into the knife. But I don't have it in front

59
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: of me. But Marcus, Uh I think Ian Rappaport tweeted

60
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: out something um late breaking here. Uh yeah, that he

61
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: is not going to need or that he won't be

62
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: done for the year. Um, let's let me get the tweet.

63
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: Actually itself good news for the Ravens and wide receiper

64
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: Brishod Perriman. His knee was deemed stable enough, got a

65
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: stem cell injection, expected to be okay for so didn't

66
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: need surgery. I think there was like minors, there's this today,

67
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: just like it was a little arthroscopic scale. But that

68
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: was that's why he went with Dr James Andrews, because

69
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: it was determining whether or not he would just need

70
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: the stem cell shot or full reconstruction, which would have

71
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: taken him out for this year. So he went to

72
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: James Andrews. Everybody does, is there anybody with a better

73
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: job in the country right now than Dr James Andrews.

74
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: But you only go to James Andrews if you've heard

75
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: some bad stuff. You need it triple confirmed and he

76
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: usually confirms that it is bad. Um. So not looking

77
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: great for Brichard Pairman. I don't think anybody's drafting Bschard Pairman.

78
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: That's fine, um, but it's kind of in conjunction with

79
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: the second piece of news out of Baltimore that Steve

80
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: Smith Senior Triple s Uh says he doesn't know when

81
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: he's coming back. It was kind of an ominous interview

82
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: that I think ESPN had first um because I mean

83
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: it's it's true though too. He tore his achilles mid season.

84
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,559
Speaker 1: How old is seven thirty seven years old? He tours

85
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: achilles mid season. It's an injury that takes gosh. I

86
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: mean on the short end, it probably takes about nine

87
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: months on a short end um at given thirty seven

88
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: years old, I think he'd be fair to assume and

89
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: probably take a full year. Yeah, on the Achilles, he

90
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 1: was just being realistic, like he has you know, he

91
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: hasn't done anything yet. He was running. He's not sure

92
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,239
Speaker 1: he maybe he'll get out there in training camp maybe later.

93
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: But it's an injury too that isn't like it's not

94
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: like a c LS these days where it's just like

95
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: lickety split, Oh wow, it's it's healed. It It's an

96
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: injury that does sap you of a little bit of

97
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: explosiveness and stuff. So it's he will have to keep

98
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: an eye on when he comes back. But man, with

99
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: with this news, I think to spin it ahead. But

100
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: the most attractive pass catching option from the ravens Now

101
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: has become franchises. Boy, it's your boy, it's your boy.

102
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: Franchise miracle. What's up, man? What should we get excited

103
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 1: about for Kamarin? Uh ninety receptions and eight hundred yards

104
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: and eight touchdowns. That's your projection, that's my projection. If

105
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 1: he gets ninety catches, bro, he had seventy five last year. No,

106
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,679
Speaker 1: I'm saying, if he gets ninety catches, he's he's gonna

107
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: crush the yard your yardage projection? All right, Well, he will.

108
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean, if he getsptions I think yards, I mean

109
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: the pace he was on from week ten to seventeen

110
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: last year, if he if it. Obviously I don't like

111
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: doing this because it's not an exact science, but just

112
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: to look, if he gets that type of volume and

113
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: produces at a similar level he was on pace for

114
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: like a hundred catches, like a thousand ish yards and

115
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: like eight touchdowns. Yea, I think I I think I

116
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: think if again, if he gets to that ninety number

117
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: on on an entire year, I think I think he'd

118
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: be pushing eleven hundred he I mean, and did not

119
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 1: jump ahead. He was one guy before all these injuries.

120
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: And Steve Smith when he was coming back was a

121
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: guy had pegged as a deep sleeper because he played

122
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 1: pretty well down the stretch and the volume could be

123
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: there Mike Wallace, if especially if Smith and Pairman aren't percent,

124
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: I guess would be the number one and like the

125
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: deep Smith deep threat, like Tory Smith roll that used

126
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: to happen. But Camar a Can might command a lot

127
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: more talgets as the possession guy. Let's just get down

128
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 1: to brass toes. Alright, let's do it. Could camar Can

129
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: potentially be a candidate for the March to eleven. WHOA,

130
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not you know, I'm not asking you.

131
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: I'm not you to pick him. But I mean, like

132
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: I know, there's there's gotta be a short list for me.

133
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: I mean, be on the short list. That would be

134
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: the boldest. No, No, he's on. He's on the short list.

135
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: I actually like him, I actually like the talent level. Um,

136
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't mind him at all, Um, just

137
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: I think the offense scares me a little bit. Um.

138
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: I really like their their running game and they got

139
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: a couple of good tight ends. As Alex Gilhard knows

140
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: as well. I don't know, man, you know, I'm not

141
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: as excited about kamar As as I am about Marvin Jones,

142
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: which is probably well, I mean a I watched you know,

143
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: he's from Callen, been following his careers as colored, so

144
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: it's more fun to route for that guy. And also

145
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: they're gonna be throwing the ball. I think a hell

146
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: of a lot more in detail. So I gosh, man,

147
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: I almost want to say concrete m Jones is my

148
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: guy for the Marshal closing in. You know, we're closing

149
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 1: in quick on the Baltimore offense before we jump away too.

150
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: As you mentioned some concerns. Let's also not forget that

151
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: it was Flacco that tore his a c L two

152
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: in week eleven, so we gotta we have to watch

153
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: his comeback as well, and and how he looks and

154
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: how confident he is on that knee. I forget which

155
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: nee it was, but whether it's the backup quarterback there,

156
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: Ryan Mallett, I think maybe Matt Shops still. I don't know,

157
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: I don't know who's still there. Let me Jimmy Jimmy Clawson,

158
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: did Josh Josh Johnson? Ryan Mallett, Yeah, so it's Mallett still.

159
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: I told you Josh Johnson somewhere. Josh Johnson is somewhere.

160
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: That dude is just everywhere. He's on every team, you

161
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I think he's the third string

162
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: quarterback for seven teams concurrently. Well, here's the thing. I mean, Look,

163
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: he's he's the first Jim Harball quarterback, right, I mean

164
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: he was. He was used University of San Diego guy

165
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: when hardball was there. You know, I don't know, maybe

166
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,719
Speaker 1: hardball coaching is keeping him in the league. There's a

167
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: great piece on him traveling around and trying to find

168
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,439
Speaker 1: a you know, car having out a career for himself.

169
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: But but it's great. It's a good read. You should

170
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: try to find it. Good stuff. But Joe Flack obviously

171
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: not Draftablehard Pairmount not draftable. Steve Smith Senior, I will

172
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 1: ask you this is he draftable? I maybe late. I'm

173
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 1: not going to be pulling the trigger on him. I

174
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 1: know some people are. I was just in an industry

175
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: actual draft already, um last week, and somebody took Steve

176
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: Smith in one of the later rounds with a PPR

177
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,119
Speaker 1: format for twelve guys in it. But twelve team PPR,

178
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: where's he go? Twelve did he go to round twelve later? Yeah?

179
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: I was like round twelve or later. I think, all right,

180
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: there you go. How about Crocker, Gilmore, Max Williams, Now,

181
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: it's ben it's Benjamin Watson there. Now. I think that's

182
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: that's a tough that's a tough position group to figure

183
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: out too, because Watson played really well last year. Gilmore

184
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 1: showed some flashes. Williams is in his second year now,

185
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: so it's not the rookie tight end thing. Just big

186
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: old shrug emoji and the ravens. I was saying before

187
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: we started recording. They got Aaron Waller who's a former

188
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: wide receiver. He's making the move to tight end this year, James,

189
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: I do north of the Waller? Absolutely? Um? Wow? Really

190
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: is he going he's moving the tight end? Yeah, that's

191
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: what I read yesterday doing some reason. He's an athletic

192
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: free guys, he's an athletic free huge too. Yeah, absolutely,

193
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: it's that's interesting. I gotta do a little bit more

194
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: research into that. I like Darren Waller. All right, there

195
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: you go. How about in Kansas City, Jamal Charles says

196
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: he could return this week. Um, what does it mean

197
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 1: for his draft stats? I think we're kind of seeing

198
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: him go late second, early third already. Um, does it

199
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: boost his draft stock at all? Franchise? I think so.

200
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: I personally, I like Charles is like an end of

201
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: the first round, like maybe in a twelve team league,

202
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: like a late first rounder. I know, so like anywhere

203
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 1: between twelve and fifteen. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean

204
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: he's he's like, he's one of the only guys in

205
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: that top tier of running backs where we know what

206
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: his role is. You know, he can produce at an

207
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: elite level. He's had four top ten finishes in Fantasy

208
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 1: since two thousand nine. He's got two a cl tiers

209
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: in five Yeah, and he's getting older, but we know

210
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: his role, we know what his ceiling is. You see,

211
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: I would I would disagree. Do we know what his rules?

212
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: Some of these guys. Some of these guys we do,

213
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: because like look at his first two years with Andy Reid,

214
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: he amassed rushing yards, twenty one rushing touchdowns, almost a

215
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 1: thousand receiving yards and tend rushing to and tend receiving touchdowns. Listen,

216
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: I love Jamal Charles, but going into this year, I

217
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: don't know if we go into this year looking at

218
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 1: previous years and saying well, hey, look, the workload is

219
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: gonna be there. It's kind of like the whole Levy

220
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 1: on Bell thing, right, Like, it'd be crazy to assume

221
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: that they're just gonna say, hey, lev just here, just

222
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: shoulder this load. We know you have had serious injuries

223
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: back to back years, but it's all good. Hey, We're

224
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: just gonna give you this crazy load again. But I

225
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: don't know if Jamal Charles gets that that that same

226
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: workload again. Well, his his career average rush at temper

227
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: game is thirteen point two. So with that, with that

228
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: average rush attempts for game, he's been able to get

229
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 1: it done at an elite level with with those and

230
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 1: like the four or five receptions game or whatever, he'll

231
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: end up stooping up like, yeah, off, twenty touches. This

232
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: dude's just elite, right, Yeah, that's what I'm saying that

233
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: to get it done. So I I like Charles maybe

234
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 1: more than you guys do. But I know what I

235
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: got him. I got the I got him the lowest

236
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: ranked of of the six animals who have put rankings

237
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: up on NFL dot Com. Probably, um, I've got him somewhere.

238
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: I think I've got him twenty. I think I've got

239
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: him twenty overall, which will push him into the third

240
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,959
Speaker 1: round in standard formats. But that's okay. When it comes

241
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 1: down to drafting him, it's whether or not you believe

242
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: he's going to achieve that that upside that we know

243
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: we've seen and get all his touches again like franchises saying,

244
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: or you wait a little bit and you know, cover

245
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: your back and in assuming that maybe because they signed

246
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 1: both Charchandrick West and Spencer where too small, very modest

247
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: contract extensions. But they mix those guys in to keep

248
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: Charles a little more fresh. That's what I would think.

249
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: How about in Detroit, the Lions O C says he

250
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: wants theoretic more evolved in the run game. Uh, if

251
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: this doesn't scream out running back by committe, I don't

252
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: know what does it. It's totally gonna be a committee. Yeah,

253
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,439
Speaker 1: I mean, but I think both of these guys can

254
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: be fairly productive. I like Riddick a lot, especially in

255
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: PPR situations. I mean, I think one of the things

256
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 1: that you look back on when the old JBC took

257
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: over as the offensive coordinator, Jim Bob Cooder, Um, they

258
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: threw the ball a lot, and they were very efficient.

259
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: They also threw a lot of shorter passes with Matt Stafford,

260
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: so I I would expect, um, you're gonna see a

261
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: lot more of that this year. I think you're gonna

262
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: see a lot of you know, a lot of intermediate

263
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: throws two guys like Golden Tate, Eric Ebron. But I

264
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: think you see a lot of underneath throws. And I

265
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,599
Speaker 1: think theoretic steps in there now him being involved in

266
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: the run game. I don't know that I'm drafting him

267
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: on my fantasy roster expecting a lot of rushing production. Okay,

268
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: if he gets something, that's great, but I think he's

269
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: still going to be more of a pass catching back

270
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: in that offense. He's not a he's not the greatest

271
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: just between the tackles runner. He worked best in space

272
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: where he could beat linebackers. But the trouble was what

273
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: they identified and in the article that I think Kevin

274
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: Patrick wrote for NFL at Around the NFL, is that

275
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: any I Theorettic came on the field, it just screamed

276
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: pass pass defense. Knew what was going on with this.

277
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: Could this could be a good thing for the backfield?

278
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: If it disguises it more and helps put both theoretic

279
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 1: and a Merabdulah into more favorable matchups. Whether or not

280
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,839
Speaker 1: that holds true and the already can actually put it

281
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: together as between the tackles runner or however they use him,

282
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: remains to be seen. This is what I think. I

283
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: think a mere Abdullah and his labor surgery is taking

284
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: a little bit longer um than probably either party expected,

285
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: having gone through a labor myself, I'll tell you, Look,

286
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: I know I'm not getting into the training training room

287
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: five days a week. I know that, right, But I'm

288
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: just saying the timetable for it, uh is anywhere between

289
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:46,239
Speaker 1: six or twelve months. It's a tricky, tricky uh surgery.

290
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: I think maybe that maybe the labor is taking a

291
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: lot longer and maybe having more of an impact on

292
00:14:53,800 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: a guy that had ball security issues last year. Anyways, um,

293
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: mixing and theoretic into actual runs does make a heck

294
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: of a lot of sense. He's but as you mentioned, man,

295
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: he's he's really good in short space pass routes. Man,

296
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: he is really good. We saw some uh, we saw

297
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: some advanced tape on him last year. I mean just

298
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: torturing line. You wanted to see somebody put linebackers on

299
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: skates just torturing him out there. It looked like, you know,

300
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: that's scene in a like a cartoon or a children's

301
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: movie where somebody like rolls a bunch of marbles out

302
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: and the bad guys like slipping slide on. That was

303
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: theoretic when he would be match up to one on

304
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: one with a linebacker. I like him a lot this year.

305
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: How many receptions did he have? Like he targets But

306
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: that's craziness, Yeah it was. But his career rushing yards

307
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: per carry is two point nine. That's that's that's that's

308
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: that's where he needs to improve. And we can't forget

309
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: about Zack Zentner, who's just kind of lurking around there.

310
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: He is, what's he coming back from? He had cracked

311
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: ribs and a partially punctured lung lass to hear that

312
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: that's no boy, no, no boy now. But you know

313
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: it's not a lower body injury now, So that's good.

314
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: And he's a he's a physical beast and he could

315
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: be their new short yardage and goal. I'm back. I'm

316
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: gonna be really interested to watch this backfield a little

317
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: bit during the preseason and stuff, and see kind of

318
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: how they divvy up touches. Looks come back from the

319
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: shoulder injury. You're saying theoretic is going to be on

320
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: the passing down work. You're saying, Zack center is gonna

321
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: be a good goal one looks good. Um, why am

322
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: I drafting ab to look in because he's good? Oh Man,

323
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: that that does not look like a great situation for

324
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: a mirab Douala from a fantasy from a fantasy perspective,

325
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 1: From a fantasy perspective, All right, let's go to Oakland.

326
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 1: Amark Cooper David Carr. Derek Carr rather says a Mark

327
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: Cooper could be more open this year. He's already getting

328
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: more open this year, is what he's saying, practice and stuff.

329
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: What does that mean with nobody defend yes, what does

330
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: that mean? I don't I don't know. How could you

331
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 1: be more open in shorts? It's a good trope when

332
00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: guys are when guys are on him. I think it's

333
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: just that he's he knows more. Now. What the article

334
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: was saying with the quotes from car and Michael Crabtree

335
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: is that he understands like the space on the field

336
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: better and how to use it because he was a

337
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 1: very natural route runner coming out of college. Um, probably

338
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: the most polished last year, and we saw that a

339
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: lot of times. Yeah, they both just are making the

340
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: comment that now that he has a full year in

341
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 1: and he's you know, played through six NFL games, he

342
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: he just understands everything better and how to use his

343
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 1: his routes in the space on the field and the

344
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 1: defense to get more open. Can I play Devil's advocate

345
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: for a second, because I think just about everyone in

346
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: America believes Amari Cooper is going to have a breakout

347
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: season this year. Um, are we a little because of

348
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: that sentiment? Are we too bullish on him in rankings

349
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 1: and in drafts? Because where is he going right now?

350
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: Where do we got him? Who's got I think he's

351
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 1: floating around in the like wide receiver anywhere from wide

352
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: receiver twelve to twenty in our rankings. Okay, so locked

353
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,479
Speaker 1: and loaded high end wide receiver too with and I

354
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: think just about again, I can't find a person who

355
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: is saying that Amari Cooper is being overdrafted. So I

356
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 1: think the perception is that he's got serious, serious wide

357
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: receiver one upside and he's right now locked and loaded

358
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: as a safe floor as a wide receiver to he's

359
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: again just playing Devil's advocate. Is he being slightly overdrafted? No, no, don't.

360
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 1: I mean I think I think he might be. Like

361
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: his adp on Fantasy Football calculator right now, is he's

362
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: the eleventh wide receiver off of the board. But what

363
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: round pick of the second round in twelve team drafts,

364
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: so late second third, let's just say third ish round

365
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 1: like Keenan, Alan, Brandon Marshall, Damarius Thomas, Kelvin Benjamin are

366
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 1: all behind him. Oh see, that's interesting. That's interesting. We

367
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: have some established dudes in there, right, But exactly exactly

368
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: you are you are drafting, certainly on upside and the

369
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: fact that the guy had a thousand yards in his

370
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: rookie season, you know, I mean, even forgetting what Odell

371
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 1: Beckham and that class did in their rookie season. That's

372
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: what I mean. Cooper had a really good rookie year.

373
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: And I think everybody looks at that Raider offense, the

374
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: writer team as a whole, but especially the offense and

375
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: sees a group that's getting better. I mean everybody saw

376
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: I think flashes from Derek Carr and you saw a

377
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: little bit from a Marie Cooper, and you know Michael

378
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 1: Crabtree is going to be consistent, and even you know,

379
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: I know Latavius Murray isn't necessarily a fantasy darling, but

380
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: I think people believe that he's good enough to give

381
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: enough balance to that offense. But I just think the

382
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: way that offense is shaping up again. I think I

383
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: do think a Mary Cooper has wide receiver one upside,

384
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: and I think he's going to be one of those

385
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: guys you get fairly early. I mean you pay well, yeah,

386
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: that's what I was gonna ask you. Would you pay

387
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: a late second round price? Second? Absolutely, absolutely absolutely started

388
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: hesititting there. Absolutely, I started hesitating late second Giller, And uh, well,

389
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 1: I was just looking too at my Fantasy League dot

390
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,120
Speaker 1: COM's adp um, which is a bunch of a bunch

391
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: of sharps and degenerates right now or do because you

392
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: can do them all year. I mean I say that,

393
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: and well, I think I have like five or six

394
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: of us. And I was just staying to Harmon last night.

395
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 1: I need to get into another one. But he's going

396
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: with pick. These are twelve team leagues and he's going

397
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: with pick twenty one, so back end of that back

398
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: end of that second round, he's going right after the

399
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: likes of Mike Evans, Keenan Allen, Jordy Nelson, Aljean Jeffrey

400
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: among wide receivers, right before Brandon Cooks, Brandon Marshall, Damarius Thomas,

401
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: and t Y Hilton. See, I I'm okay with that.

402
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: I think I think that's a fine that's a fine

403
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: spot because the upside is there. And I think we

404
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: saw what probably his his NFL floor might be last year,

405
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: which is like the thousand yards and seven touchdown. I

406
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: agree with that. I actually think he's got higher upside.

407
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: I think Keenan Allen this year, I do well. Yeah,

408
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I just think I think I think

409
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 1: we're talking about a way more touchdown potential. Uh. And

410
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: I think the yardish could be similar to I really do.

411
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: He Also, he had a foot injury late last year

412
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: that kind of held him back for a few games.

413
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 1: If he didn't have that, where would he have gone? Yeah,

414
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: could have put up more. And you guys talked about

415
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 1: in the last episode, uh, talking about Derek Carr being

416
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: possibly a top ten maybe fantasy I think he's a

417
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: fringe top ten guy this year. Yeah, and if he's

418
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: going to improve Cooper's gotta it kind of goes hand

419
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 1: in hand with Cooper, right. And I think what people

420
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: like to write about about about cooper situation is that

421
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: you look at the offense and there's it's a very

422
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 1: clear cut tree, right, It's like Cooper and crab Tree

423
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: and not a whole lot else in terms of the

424
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: passing down work. Right. So like I think in terms

425
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 1: of clarity, I think people feel pretty good about the floor.

426
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: All right. Um, c J. Spiller New Orleans says he

427
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 1: quote knows he can flourish in the Saints offense. Bro. Look, look,

428
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 1: I will say this, he has the skill set really

429
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: to flourish in the Saints offense. Now, whether or not

430
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: that I know how you feel, I know how you

431
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: feel about c. J. Spiller, I know how you feel.

432
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 1: But he does have the skill set really to flourish

433
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 1: in that offense. I mean, he's got the skills. And

434
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: I'm going back and looking at you know, we should

435
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: just rewack what the exact same things I said, and

436
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: we could just reack that, right, I mean I'm going

437
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 1: back like he has the potential. I won't say to

438
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: put up because the twenty twelve season was his breakout.

439
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 1: He had you know what, scrimmage yards. He doesn't count

440
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: as a breakout if you've never had a good year following.

441
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 1: But he know, the next year he put up eleven

442
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: hundred scrimmage yards he had we only had two touchdowns.

443
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 1: But I think he has the ability to be another

444
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: you know, thousand yard from scrimmage guy and maybe put

445
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: up four or five touchdowns. And now, I don't know

446
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: if you consider that flourishing, but it's certainly better than

447
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: what he would have given you last year. Way better

448
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: years he is. Let's not forget that. In the football

449
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: community and a football Cognisanti, when C. J. Spiller signed

450
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: in New Orleans, everybody was like clapping like perfect I was.

451
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 1: I was not, And then he got injured and that

452
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 1: completely fell. And in the article too, he talks about

453
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: how his knee injury was what was slowing him down

454
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,120
Speaker 1: all last year and why they eventually shut him down.

455
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 1: So I'm just, I just I don't know what his

456
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: role would be if he is fully healthy, because like

457
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: mark Ingram took another step as a pass catcher last year,

458
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: but he would insane last year from the passing. Maybe

459
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: maybe they maybe they don't you know, use mark ingram

460
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: like that as much to keep him, to keep him healthy,

461
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: and they try to get spiller, and like, I'm spiller,

462
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: why do you do this? Look what was his overall

463
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: stats last year? Because somebody looked this up? Because here

464
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: here's the thing man. And also take away remember that

465
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: that overcome, So take that out. Okay, that was against

466
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I believe I think it was against the Cowboys.

467
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: His his overall numbers uh hundred and twelve rushing yards

468
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: on thirty six carries, on uh thirty four catches, two

469
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty nine receiving yards. You could probably take

470
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: like seventy of them away and a grand total of

471
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:23,719
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. Right, Okay, alright, look, okay, I would be

472
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 1: willing to take a very late. He would not I

473
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 1: would no, he would not know. He would not like,

474
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 1: what what are you saying? Like fifteen round? No you're

475
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: not you're not taking it out right before I take

476
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 1: my kicker and or defense like I would. I'm not

477
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 1: saying I would guarantee you that I would do, but

478
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: I would look at it. I would look at it

479
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: and say, there's the potential anyone is anyone more bullish?

480
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,199
Speaker 1: You're gonna drop it. You're gonna waste a fourteen fifteenth

481
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 1: round pick on when you could get a kicker. Then

482
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: I would I would rather have a second defense. Wow,

483
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: that's a second Spiller. Maybe I I'm wanna. I want

484
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: to actually see him do something like in training camp

485
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 1: and you know, see some sort of vine come out

486
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: where they're like, well, wow, look, I'm like, okay, he's bad.

487
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,959
Speaker 1: Oh the other side of it, as Ingram ever had

488
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: a fully healthy season. No, but but he's not the

489
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: but he's not the between the down, between the tackles guy,

490
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like, even if that's what

491
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 1: I'm saying, like the upside for me is just not

492
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: even there because I'm saying, look, uh, if Ingram goes down,

493
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,479
Speaker 1: I don't even think C. J. Spiller becomes the starter.

494
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 1: It's Tim high Tower. It's Tim Higtower all the way.

495
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, they got like seventeen running

496
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: backs on the right. I mean, somebody's gonna have This

497
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: speaks to how much James co is down on C. J.

498
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 1: Spiller because knowing how much he dislikes mark Ingram. That's right,

499
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: that's rights, and he still won't give that's right. That

500
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: says a lot. That's right. Uh. Look, I think he's

501
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,959
Speaker 1: going to be involved in the passing passing game. You know,

502
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: it'd be crazy not to at least utilize him. I

503
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: think I really on a sleep believe Daniel Lasco, being

504
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: the athletic freaky is and having the skill set that

505
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: he does, will also be utilized on passing down work,

506
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: which would kill C. J. Spiller's value. But having both

507
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 1: of those guys together I think also semi limits uh

508
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: mark Ingram. And that's the point that I kind of

509
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: sort of made um in my fantasy disappointments list talking

510
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: about mark Ingram, who I think Mike Fabion has thirteen overall,

511
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: and I'm like, there's no chance in hell I would

512
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 1: pay uh a early second round price to go get

513
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: mark Ingram, a guy who's I has he ever played

514
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: in a complete season? No. I believe we've established this

515
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: in the podcast numerous times when you yell at mark Ingram.

516
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: By the way, just a quick piece of breaking news here,

00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: let's talk about deep sleepers. Uh, topic that is near

Speaker 1: and dear to my heart, near and dear to your heart.

535
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 1: Who on this list do you want me to talk

536
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: about this? Well? Can I sip on some yarns on? Yeah?

537
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: Can I see this? We need to graduate camar Aken now,

538
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: so he's no learn deep sleep. He's still there. Yeah,

539
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: he's just a sleeper. Now he's got to graduate to

540
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: sleeper status. No, no, not, Kamar, I think so, um,

541
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: I do want to I do want to say this.

542
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: I feel like we've given uh DeAndre Washington a lot

543
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: of burn on this show. But Alex Gillhard give it

544
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: to me again. DeAndre Washington, Texas Tech running back, little

545
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: guy five eight, I don't know, like two hundred pounds,

546
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 1: two hundred five pounds, uh drafted by Oakland in the

547
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 1: later rounds. Tell me why you believe he is a

548
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: nice deep sleep. Well, they need help in the passing

549
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: game out of the backfield. They threw a ton of

550
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: targets at Latavius Murray and their fullbacks last year and

551
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,200
Speaker 1: none of them were effective at all with those targets.

552
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: Gander Washington is a shifty guy. He's smaller, he's got

553
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: some speed, and they like what he offers between the

554
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: tackles too. So I think he'll at least he'll at

555
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 1: least mix in as that pass catching compliment and maybe

556
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: he turns into a theoretic type where in PPR leagues

557
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: he has some value or you know, if the running

558
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: backs start falling apart like they did last year, and

559
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,239
Speaker 1: you need a you need a flex guy. You can

560
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: grab him in a game that might be might have

561
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 1: a path heavy game script or be a shootout for

562
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: the Ravens um and he's also he's also a good

563
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: handcuff like Latavia's. Latavia's Murray got a ton of work

564
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 1: last year, like all their carries and targets a ridiculous amount.

565
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: And despite all that, like he he finished the r time,

566
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: but you look at his numbers across the board and

567
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: you're like, man, he got all that work and that's

568
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: all he produced on. So there's there's a chance that

569
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 1: somebody like Washington comes in and and gets a number

570
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: of opportunities in this offense and could do something with them.

571
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: When you guys watched Oakland game, didn't you always just

572
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: get the feeling that that Latavius Murray was pacing himself. Yeah,

573
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: kind of. And when I would watch them and looking

574
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: back on him, always like I'm like, how did he

575
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: get to a thousand yards? Uh? Yeah, It's it's interesting,

576
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: especially for a big athletic freak like Latavius Murray. He

577
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 1: just never broke one off, like we saw him do

578
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: in the previous season. I just watched him and I

579
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: just kind of felt like he was a yeah, just

580
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 1: kind of sort of pacing himself. I don't know. Maybe

581
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: it was a coaching staff saying, hey man, slow your

582
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: game down a little bit, um, or maybe it was

583
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: just he himself saying, hey, look, I got a shoulder

584
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 1: thirty carries a game, or whatever it might be. I'm

585
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: gonna have thirty touches this game. I gotta save myself.

586
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: You had three seven touches last year. I mean that's

587
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: an insane workload for a young guy like that. Um yeah, DeAndre,

588
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,239
Speaker 1: you know it's He's an interesting play at least as

589
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: a good handcuff PPR play. Deep sleep I love it.

590
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:27,959
Speaker 1: I love him as a deep sleeper. I love him

591
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: as deep beautiful um Zach zenter Zack Center. We mentioned

592
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: him a little bit, the second time he's been mentioned

593
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: on I just love it. Like to double to double

594
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: down on what we were talking about before is and

595
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: these are deep sleepers like I didn't want to go with.

596
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: Just like guys that everybody knows or that that have

597
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: been getting a lot of hypes. So I was trying

598
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: to uncover some guys who you could scoop up at

599
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: the very very end of your draft that come out

600
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: some potential. And like we said, with a Mere Abdullah

601
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: coming back from offseasons solder surgery, we don't know yet

602
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: how he's gonna return, but we've seen in the past

603
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: some running backs are a little more hesitant or kind

604
00:30:58,120 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: of struggle. They don't trust it right away because that

605
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: should you know what, they absorbable a lot of contact

606
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: on and after it just got fixed, they might not

607
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: be in for it. Zenter is a bigger guy. He

608
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: racked up a ton of yards in college with South

609
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: Dakota State, over two thousand yards in three straight years

610
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: on the ground he piled up, so he's he's an

611
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: athletic guy. Draft Twitter and metrics Twitter loved him when

612
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 1: he came out last year as a U d f A,

613
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: so he could be that guy. Like they ran the committee,

614
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: you know, pretty kind of effectively last year. But Zenner

615
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: would be an upgrade over what joy Bell did last year.

616
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,719
Speaker 1: He'd be a faster, strike, more athletic version. And like

617
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: I said, this kind of hinges on a mirror's injury.

618
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: But Zenner could be getting into the mix more and

619
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: more as as the bigger power back there. Okay, um,

620
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 1: and of course you know I'm gonna ask you about

621
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: your boy double j Jannie Jeff Channis. I'm surprised we

622
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: didn't start there. Yeah, I threw him in again, wasn't

623
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: what the hell? Like, what the hell? I mean? Everybody

624
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,959
Speaker 1: saw what what he could be capable of in that

625
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: NFC divisional round. Like, he's got size, he's got speed.

626
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 1: He ma to Patrick Peterson in the end zone on

627
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: a game tying hail Mary. Yeah, he's still raw. He

628
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: still needs to get better at running routes. And Aaron

629
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,959
Speaker 1: Rodgers hasn't like added any fuel to the hype train

630
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: this offseason. Is all the Beat reporters love asking about

631
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: Jeff Janis and Rogers like, yeah, he's got a lot

632
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: of work to do, but if you know the time,

633
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 1: Montgomery is still coming off an injury, Davante Adams was

634
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: bad last year. If Jeff Jenny starts getting mixed in,

635
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 1: he could be a great target in bestball leagues like

636
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: MFL MFL tens, where you you don't need him to

637
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: produce week after week after week, but when he does

638
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: potentially have a hundred and forty yard two touchdown explosion

639
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 1: game boom, you got him there you go? Uh Markus

640
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: Grant and want of this list you like? Um, you know,

641
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: I'm kind of keeping an eye on Jeric McKinnon because

642
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 1: I liked what I saw from him last year. And

643
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: one of the things I noticed last year with the

644
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: Vikings is that they used him as a third down back.

645
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: And we all know who's ahead of him in line

646
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: there in the Vikings backfield, and um, you know, speaking

647
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: of the franchise at the beginning, saying he was in

648
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: the best shape of his life. I've seen that story

649
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: about Peterson now too. Um. But I just does ap

650
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: ever get out of shape? I don't think so. I

651
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 1: don't think. I'm pretty sure he came out of the

652
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,239
Speaker 1: womb just Jack. I mean, you know, maybe he has

653
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 1: a week in the off season where he doesn't work

654
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: out and eats a hamburger or something like I don't know,

655
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: like a big family barbecue or like I just go

656
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: in hand this weekend. See. The thing is, with a

657
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: p I could see that dude eating like crap just

658
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: all day every day. But he just as a freak,

659
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: you know what. I want to throw it about McKinnon

660
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: here is. I think he's one of a few handcuff backs.

661
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: And I was talking about this on Twitter a little

662
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: bit with Sigmund Bloom and a couple of the people

663
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: that have like league winning upside as handcuffs if things

664
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: go poorly to the guy ahead of him, like Jerick McKinnon,

665
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 1: Carlos Williams, and I might even throw James James Starks

666
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: into that mix if like Eddie Lacey were to go

667
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: down or struggle again, guys in good offenses that would

668
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: be able to get up a size of a workload

669
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 1: and our talented people, you know, players and in their

670
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: own right like that's that's a good situation. So McKinnon

671
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 1: is a guy that I'll probably be skipping up a lot.

672
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 1: And as I as I noted in the piece, which

673
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: again you can read an NFL dot Com slash draft kit, uh,

674
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: Peterson kind of wore down over the year because he

675
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 1: got such a heavy workload and that offense relied on

676
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 1: him so much. In the first nine games he averaged

677
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 1: just shy of five yards to carry, but over the

678
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: last eight, including the playoffs, he averaged just three point

679
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: six seven yards per carry. So if they sprinkle sprinkling

680
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: McKinnon a little bit more. Peterson's gonna be thirty one.

681
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 1: Like you know, even if they just give McKinnon a

682
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 1: series here or there or do more passing down work,

683
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: he could be like a Giovanni Bernard type role, you

684
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: know when he was a rookie and get a decent

685
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: amount of total yards and a few touchdowns. You Know

686
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 1: what I really like about it, too, is the fact

687
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: that this is what now, his third year in the NFL.

688
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 1: He's a converted quarterback out of Southern I believe, um,

689
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:51,320
Speaker 1: his measurables are through the roof. He is a spark god.

690
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 1: Which is that athletic metric that Nike uses. He was

691
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 1: at an insane score on it. He is an athletic monster. Um.

692
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: I really truly, honestly believe going into his third season. Now,

693
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: maybe it's his fourth season, but I think, um, he's

694
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: learning the game, he's learning the position, and he's learning

695
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,720
Speaker 1: behind one of the best running backs of all time,

696
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Gil Hard. This guy could be an

697
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:22,720
Speaker 1: absolute game changer. Uh, should Ap sit out a game

698
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: or two or whatever it might be. Um, I know,

699
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 1: I know the folks out there who played casually are

700
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: gonna say, well, what about that matt Asiotta guy. Now no,

701
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 1: um and again I get it. I get it. Look,

702
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: when Ap didn't play matt Asie Hatta stepped in and

703
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: he had himself a couple of splash games. I get it.

704
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: McKinnon was the much better player those in that that

705
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: span though, But uha just had the stupid couple ofdown games. Touchdown,

706
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 1: he had two different three touchdown games. Like McKinnon would

707
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: look great, move them all the way down there and

708
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: be like, all right, kid, get out asiatical all in

709
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 1: the end zone. I also found on vikings dot Com

710
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,840
Speaker 1: Peterson was talking about working on his route route running

711
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: abilities this offseason. He wants to get better at that

712
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 1: because I think he struggled with that last year. Um,

713
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: it's right, And he was talking up McKinnon and said,

714
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: we have we have this young guy. He's a pro

715
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: athlete and he does a great job when it comes

716
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: to to providing that scat back for us. So, um,

717
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: you know, Peterson's working on He might be the biggest

718
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 1: strongest scaton back in the history of the world. He

719
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 1: is huge. Peterson's working on his receiving game, but I

720
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: think he recognizes the skill that McKinnon has it kind

721
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: of leads into an Atrian Peterson discussion, right, because where's

722
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: ap going right now? Somewhere in the top five. Yeah,

723
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: A lot of folks feel very confident about a p UM.

724
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 1: You know, you kind of look at the age and

725
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 1: the workload. I think there are a lot of folks

726
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 1: who are a little bit hesitant about a p UM,

727
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 1: and yet they're then there are those people who are like,

728
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 1: you don't want forget it, man, the guy is an

729
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: absolute terminator. He's a cyborg. I'm investing, I don't care. Yeah, yeah, look,

730
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 1: I I mean I get that logic. Obviously. The dude

731
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:15,720
Speaker 1: blew out his knee, came back, yeah, and then records

732
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 1: set records basically. Um, so I totally understand that. But

733
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 1: there is something that's just nagging with me when I

734
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 1: look at him and just saying, like, you know, I mean,

735
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,879
Speaker 1: I quote outcasts all the time. Even the sun goes down,

736
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,760
Speaker 1: heroes eventually die. I mean, at some point, at some point,

737
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 1: even you know, even Arnold Schwarzenegger and T two got

738
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: dipped in a vata lava and this was kind of

739
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: a rap. So I you know, look, I I would

740
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: certainly still spend a first round pig on age, of course,

741
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: but of course I would make sure that I come

742
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: around and get McKinnon as a handcuff. The other thing,

743
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: I think people were worried about his Minnesota's production on offense,

744
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 1: like they're I think they'll be better this year. No,

745
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: I mean they might be, but last year they were

746
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: not great. They're they're passing offense, didn't have a ton

747
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 1: of volume, Yeah, which you know. But Teddy Bridgewater now

748
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:02,719
Speaker 1: is going to be in his third year, he finally

749
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: has a number one wide receiver in the quand treadwell.

750
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: It could it could swing up all right? Um, can

751
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 1: I give a little shout out to Tyrod before we

752
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: move on? Here? Thy god? Taylor a favorite of the stronghold.

753
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 1: Um we we all loved him last year and he

754
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: was a great pick up playing DFS a lot because

755
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: he had he came at such a value. However, I

756
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,879
Speaker 1: think people are discounting how well he actually played last year,

757
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 1: especially from a fantasy standpoint. So from weeks one through

758
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: four he was the fourth highest scoring quarterback in the

759
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 1: entire league in fantasy. Uh. And then he got injured.

760
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: And then when he came back in week nine. From

761
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: Week nine to seventeen, he was the ninth highest scoring

762
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: quarterback in all of Fantasy. So you look at that

763
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 1: with that small gap removed, even if he played mediocrely,

764
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 1: he would have finished as probably around a QB one

765
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,280
Speaker 1: based on those scores. His legs and his rushing combility

766
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 1: gives him a safe week to week floor because I

767
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,280
Speaker 1: think he had nine games with over forty rushing yards

768
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 1: and with Sammy Watkins. I mean, hopefully he comes back

769
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,239
Speaker 1: healthy taking another step when those those two were on

770
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: fire down the stretch last year. Tyrod could be a

771
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: guy that you could honestly draft in one of your

772
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 1: last rounds and probably get quarterback one production out of him.

773
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: I agree, I absolutely agree. I think Tyrod Taylor and

774
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 1: Eli Manning are those two guys, um that I'm really

775
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: looking at in those double digit rounds and saying, Okay,

776
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:20,879
Speaker 1: give me one of those guys, or give me both

777
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 1: of those guys. As a matter of fact, I'll take

778
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: both of them. Um. All right, let's talk about red

779
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: zone analysis. What does it mean? What did you find out?

780
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: Alex gillhun Well, what I wanted to do was just

781
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 1: take a look at what people have done in the

782
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: red zone recently, if there was any sort of correlation

783
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 1: to teams being more efficient in the red zone converting

784
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,800
Speaker 1: more of their plays into touchdowns and having a higher scoring,

785
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: which I mean there was. It wasn't like a complete,

786
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 1: you know, perfect linear correlation, but teams that were more

787
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: efficient in the red zone did score. But it was interesting,

788
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 1: was just kind of looking at the divvying up of

789
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: the touches and which teams were more effective. So one

790
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: one trend that was not surprising to anybody also was

791
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 1: that a good quarterback helps his team be a lot

792
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: more efficient in the red zone. Like the Cardinals. What

793
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 1: was crazy was you looked at him, Carson Palmer was out.

794
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 1: They only converted fourteen percent of their red zone plays

795
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 1: into touchdowns. That number jumped to over last year. Larry

796
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,800
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald led the way. He had a lot of targets,

797
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: but John Brown was the second most targeted guy in

798
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: the red zone, which was kind of un surprising. Yeah,

799
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 1: over Michael Floyd. Michael Floyd was more it was more

800
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 1: of the deep threat for them last year than John Brown. Um,

801
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: but I like, I like both of those guys this year.

802
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: Over Larry Fitzgerald, I think a lot of his his

803
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 1: early season production was predicated on some of those red

804
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,399
Speaker 1: zone looks, and I think the other two could start

805
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: could start stealing some of those. Um, it's some some

806
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: teams were super easy to figure out. This article right

807
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: now is on NFL the com slash Fantasy. You guys

808
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: can check it out and I just did NFC yesterday.

809
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 1: A f C will be out today Tuesday, and then

810
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 1: you guys can take a look. But so you know,

811
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: like Atlanta surprising no one. Basically all of their red

812
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: zone touches went to Julio Jones and DeVonta Freeman. So

813
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: that was a pretty easy situation to figure out. What

814
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 1: was surprise using for you that Detroit actually had the

815
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: highest touchdown percentage in the red zone among all NFL

816
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,359
Speaker 1: teams last year. Is that right? And that once Jim

817
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: Bob Cooter took over from Week eight to seventeen, they

818
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: converted a ridiculous of the red zone plays into touchdowns. WHOA,

819
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: that's insane. Yes, So they that was quite surprising. Um,

820
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 1: And now the question is can they can? I mean,

821
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 1: remaining that efficient is probably never going to happen. The

822
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 1: league average over the last four years was about twenty

823
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: point five percent or so, but they're gonna they don't

824
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: have Megatron anymore. So, like who's going to take up

825
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 1: though that role? Is Eric Ebron gonna take a step?

826
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 1: Is Marvin Jones gonna be able to be that guy?

827
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: I mean, Golden Tate is good, is good in the

828
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 1: red zone because of a short airy quickness. But that'll

829
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 1: be that'll be an interesting one to see a well. Uh,

830
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 1: the Rams were a surprisingly effective team, but I think

831
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 1: that was just largely because Todd Gurley was there and

832
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: he got into the end zone. He got it in

833
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 1: the end zone on over a third of his red

834
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: zone carries, so that helped them even it out. And

835
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: one interesting team to We kind of mentioned this a

836
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: little bit earlier when we're talking about the Vikings. Is

837
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,479
Speaker 1: the presence of the Kwan treadwell there now because Kyle

838
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,879
Speaker 1: Kyle Rudolph was their lead red zone threat last year

839
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 1: and he only that's not good. He had ted targets

840
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 1: there and he only turned three of them into Marcus

841
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: has an awesome nickname for him. Yeah, I think that

842
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: nickname is going out the window. Though the red zone Reindeer,

843
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 1: the red red zone range just I don't think it

844
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 1: applies quite as much. Any might be the greatest nickname

845
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:36,919
Speaker 1: in the history of sports. Rudolph the Red might be.

846
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: That's that's high praise. It might be. Um, But yeah, no,

847
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I'm not a big North Turner guy. Um.

848
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:46,760
Speaker 1: You know, never if you've made that clear on this podcast,

849
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 1: it makes no sense We're still talking about the Dallas

850
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 1: Cowboys from the nineties. Makes no sense. The game has changed.

851
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: Let's let's move on. North Turner's not a good oski. Um.

852
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,800
Speaker 1: But again, you know you think about just the development

853
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:03,439
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater, Laquantradwell digs a p is there. We talked

854
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 1: about Jerick McKinnon. I don't know. To me, doesn't it

855
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: seem like they got the pieces on offense to move

856
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: that ball? Yes, I think they do. They're not gonna

857
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 1: be a prolific offense, but I think there will be

858
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 1: some fantasy points to be had and their offense could

859
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 1: take a little bit of a step from from last year. Um,

860
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: from a fantasy perspective, UM, give me a player that

861
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: in your red zone analysis that you said, you know what, Man, Now,

862
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I'm thinking about who, uh Well,

863
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,399
Speaker 1: I like Mike. It made me feel even a little

864
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 1: better about somebody like Mike Evans. To uh, last year,

865
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: he had fourteen targets. He only turned two of them

866
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 1: into touchdowns, which is not great, but that year feels

867
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 1: like an anomaly for him. He converted about half his

868
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 1: red zone looks into touchdowns the year before. I think

869
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,280
Speaker 1: that sounds about right, and he and he and Winston

870
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:49,239
Speaker 1: spent time this offseason working on the report. You know,

871
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback Evans kind of was injured to start the

872
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 1: year heads strings, so he's a guy that's going to

873
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: command a lot of looks like Vince and Jackson. I

874
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: think had thirteen in the red zone last year as well,

875
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: and also only converted like two three of them into touchdowns,

876
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 1: so more of those could go Mike Evans way as

877
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 1: he and Winston build up their young quarterback wide receiver report.

878
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 1: I don't mind it, man, I I think I feel

879
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 1: like Mike Evans is kind of lift the forgotten good

880
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Yes, oh, and Jordan Reid probably surprising nobody

881
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,839
Speaker 1: just got absolutely pummeled by Kirk Cousins in the red

882
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: zone and they were super effective together. Kirk Cousins through

883
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:23,919
Speaker 1: passes to Jordan read in the red zone. He turned

884
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 1: ton of them into touchdowns. Over under Jordan read, uh

885
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 1: ten and a half games over over, over over over,

886
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:36,320
Speaker 1: so confident because they're so cough. But it was interesting

887
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 1: to note to like and this showed up with the

888
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 1: Redskins when they got more stable play from Kirk Cousins

889
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars, which we'll see in today's piece with

890
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles, is that their touchdown percentage jumped a bunch,

891
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 1: which helped um help their overall scoring output two. So

892
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 1: it's just worth noting when you're looking And like I

893
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: said in the in the lead to this article, this

894
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 1: is just a small piece of the puzzle. Obviously it

895
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 1: shouldn't be the end all beyond. Oh well, Jordan read

896
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 1: got twenty one targets in the red zone, like thereby

897
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,919
Speaker 1: tight end number one. But it's just when you're looking

898
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 1: at guys, you're trying to figure out, like, hey, what

899
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 1: what might they're scoring potential? Be sure there's a snapshot.

900
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: I took the number of plays passing and rushing over

901
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 1: the last four years. And but it's like you said,

902
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 1: I mean, who would have thought Detroit Detroit exactly? That's

903
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: the first day what I said to the fishing in

904
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 1: the red zone. Yeah, so that's great. All right, let's

905
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:27,759
Speaker 1: do daily depths get at here, let's do it definitely depth.

906
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: Does that bear up? Depths depths daily Depp time, Marcus Grant,

907
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,439
Speaker 1: what you got, I'm gonna do that. Well. First off,

908
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,720
Speaker 1: I feel like I should almost anti dap you, James

909
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:46,239
Speaker 1: cou you know, on this show and you basically let's

910
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: hand it an NBA title to the Golden State warys

911
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 1: and I tried to pump the breaks. I tried to

912
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,399
Speaker 1: be rational about it. Let's Warriors and seven. Calm down,

913
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: It's fine. I originally predicted them in six, so I'm

914
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 1: not you know, I'm not in panic mode here. I

915
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 1: think I think they're gonna drop that game in game six,

916
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,359
Speaker 1: just so they could sail Burton front of their Homepap. Yeah,

917
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't really want that. I don't need

918
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 1: that kind of stress. But you know, like, I feel

919
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:11,839
Speaker 1: like you have something to do with why we are

920
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: as right now. So you're well, I wasn't the guy

921
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 1: that that the that went full Draymond Lebron, but it

922
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,319
Speaker 1: was your it was your vibe. I think that made

923
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,879
Speaker 1: this happen. So there's an anti DAP but my real,

1014
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: I just started my account, and it's mostly because, first

1015
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 1: of all, I'm the worst follow on Instagram. You can

1016

Speaker 1: follow me if you want, James Deco, but I only

1017
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,040
Speaker 1: post pictures of my kid. I don't think it helps

1018
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,520

1021
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 1: my kids. I didn't realize they had all these goofy

1022
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 1: filters on there, and my kid freaking loves it. It's

1023
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: only like a week or two ago that I learned

1024
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:37,440
Speaker 1: how to use some of those filters, I don't even know.

1025
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 1: I still don't know how to use snapchats, so I'm

1026
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:41,680

1032
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:02,400
Speaker 1: that that was that's integrat increct. I mean, you know,
