Speaker 1: died from St. Francis Practice standfall, Ladies and gentlemen, your BFFs.
Speaker 1: And with that we want to do inside up Studio
Speaker 1: thirty four. This easy. The BFFs Here is Frank stamfle
Speaker 1: I am Greg Sousman. Week twelve is upon us, Frggie.
Speaker 1: What's going on? Greggy? Happy Friday to you, t G.
Speaker 1: I f decently fun game last night between the Houston
Speaker 1: Texas and the Indianapolis Colts. Dave said it was horrible, horrible.
Speaker 1: I mean it was a horrible game because he didn't
Speaker 1: hit on any of his bets. That's the reason why
Speaker 1: I mean, but from a pure football perspective, lower scoring
Speaker 1: divisional matchup. We knew that the Houston Tech has needed
Speaker 1: that game, and of course the hook comes into play
Speaker 1: before we get to the game, Greg, how did you
Speaker 1: sleep last night? Buddy? I slept very well. I was
Speaker 1: wide awake early this morning. I was like, Wow, why
Speaker 1: am I wide awake right now? On a Friday? Huh day?
Speaker 1: I was excited. I got to work. How did it
Speaker 1: be here having a roll on the weekend? Man? Did
Speaker 1: you sleep? I slept all right, much needed rest. Did
Speaker 1: you sleep with a belly full of beer and wings? Greg?
Speaker 1: You one of those things? And I'll let you guess
Speaker 1: which the wings? No, not the word? Yeah, I had
Speaker 1: a great beer and wings, like you know your best
Speaker 1: friend by now I was kidding, Frank, that was sarcasm.
Speaker 1: I obviously knew it was clearly not the wings already. Yeah, wings,
Speaker 1: and be here last night watching Colston Texas. Um. Judy
Speaker 1: was so. Judy actually asked, which, just like who's this
Speaker 1: Jacobey Brissette guy? And like is he like good? I
Speaker 1: was kind of explain the background with the Patriots and
Speaker 1: how it's all full circle very interesting? Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissette. He is what he is. I think it's
Speaker 1: a great job done by Frank rich Maybe not last night,
Speaker 1: a little bit more conservative than they probably should have been,
Speaker 1: but for the most part, I mean to come in
Speaker 1: to the season a month before Andrew luck retires, who's
Speaker 1: your franchise quarterback, and to perform the way that he has,
Speaker 1: I think it's been a pretty damn good season. I
Speaker 1: agree last night it wasn't enough two yards shorts of
Speaker 1: that first down on on fourth down, obviously towards the
Speaker 1: end of the game, although there was no there was
Speaker 1: no urgency by Frank Reich on that last trial. The
Speaker 1: just the entire game, it was weird. It was a
Speaker 1: very conservative game plan. You probably figured coming in that
Speaker 1: they wanted to run the football, and of course we
Speaker 1: didn't know who the running back was gonna be. It
Speaker 1: was definitively Jonathan Williams. I think all week, Greg, we
Speaker 1: were mostly right about that. I remember when we ranked
Speaker 1: these running backs from a waiver wire perspective, I had
Speaker 1: it Jonathan Williams, Niheam Hines, and Jordan Wilkins, and that's
Speaker 1: the way that it played out last night. Jonathan Williams
Speaker 1: sixties seven percent of the snaps, seventeen routes on thirty
Speaker 1: one Brissette dropbacks, six carries, three targets. Just a massive,
Speaker 1: massive workload. Uh nightheam Hines played thirty three per cent
Speaker 1: of the snaps, nine carries, three targets. Solid game, I
Speaker 1: said yesterday, He's probably gonna get eight to ten touches
Speaker 1: finished with you know, uh, eleven touches, So solid game
Speaker 1: for night. He behinds Jordan Wilkins Greig one snap, one route, ran,
Speaker 1: zero carries, zero targets. We know who the guy is
Speaker 1: gonna be. Assuming Marlon Mack is out for the next
Speaker 1: however many weeks. You don't know anything is when Marlon
Speaker 1: mac comes back, right, Because Johnathan Williams kind of earned
Speaker 1: a role now, hasn't it. Yeah, he certainly has, you know.
Speaker 1: And what I said earlier on in the week, the
Speaker 1: reason why I like Jonathan Williams was that he proved
Speaker 1: to the Colts coaching staff that he can handle a workload,
Speaker 1: that he can perform well. Last week he ran for
Speaker 1: over a hundred yards on thirteen carries. So I think
Speaker 1: that he earned their trust and that's why they ended
Speaker 1: up giving him. You know, I don't think anybody saw
Speaker 1: this type of workload coming. Twenty nine touches in this
Speaker 1: game for Jonathan Williams, but you know, he made the
Speaker 1: most of it. Didn't run incredibly efficiently here only four
Speaker 1: yards for Arry, but he did enough and he scored
Speaker 1: a touchdown as well. He had a few receptions. It
Speaker 1: was you know, look, if you started Johnathan Williams, you
Speaker 1: are very very happy with what you ended up getting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was freakinglutely. He was unbelievable for the Colts. Last night.
Speaker 1: On the other side of the Houston Texans, DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 1: had a big time game that see why Hilton typ
Speaker 1: a game that we expected. Hopkins with those two touchdowns
Speaker 1: long touchdowns as well, which was awesome. And then will
Speaker 1: Fuller welcome back like he missed no time because he
Speaker 1: was the same exact role he always plays on this team.
Speaker 1: It was insane. Man just stepped right back in. And
Speaker 1: admittedly I said yesterday, don't know what to expect from
Speaker 1: will Fuller, but he stepped up in a big way
Speaker 1: against a a solid secondary. Right the Colts don't have
Speaker 1: any locked down cornerbacks. They play more zone coverage than
Speaker 1: you know most defenses. But Will fuller Man made the
Speaker 1: most of this opportunity of the snaps yesterday, ran thirty
Speaker 1: one routes on thirty three Watson dropbacks, finished with game
Speaker 1: highs across the board, eleven targets, thirty nine percent targets share,
Speaker 1: seven receptions a hundred and forty yards. What sucks, Greg
Speaker 1: is we still know that the floor is low at
Speaker 1: times a little fuller because he leaves with injury. He
Speaker 1: is a big he's a big play threat. But if
Speaker 1: he's not converting on those big plays, then you know
Speaker 1: we we could see a lower floor from him. This
Speaker 1: is gonna end up being one of his better boom plays,
Speaker 1: and he was. He wasn't in the lineup for anybody.
Speaker 1: I would imagine. I'll look that up to see what
Speaker 1: his start percentage. He was not in our lineup. DeAndre
Speaker 1: Hopkins was awesome last night, had that blow up game
Speaker 1: that we were hoping for for a while. T Y Hilton. Greg,
Speaker 1: you know, we knew what the risk was going into
Speaker 1: this game, and I had him ranked as my wide
Speaker 1: receiver fourteen. I was very aggressive. It was a good
Speaker 1: matchup going up against Houston. I wasn't just playing off
Speaker 1: the narrative that he owns them. They are a bad secondary.
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of wide receivers have done well
Speaker 1: against him, not just t Y Hilton, but ultimately in
Speaker 1: the spot, Greg, you could see that he was limited.
Speaker 1: He was jogging up and down the sideline a lot
Speaker 1: in this game. The Colts had sixty seven offensive plays
Speaker 1: in this rain game. He played on twenty five of them,
Speaker 1: So twenty five out of sixty seven snaps. No, that's
Speaker 1: that's not what we're used to seeing from t Y Hilton.
Speaker 1: He had a few drops yesterday. He looked rusty. If
Speaker 1: you started t Y Hilton, Greg, you don't feel good
Speaker 1: about it. Obviously, not only a few points yesterday, will
Speaker 1: Fuller did was holding onto his uh his was a
Speaker 1: quad at one point, um or maybe it's his hamstring
Speaker 1: after coming up after we cash did't miss any plays
Speaker 1: or any snaps or anything like that. But I thought
Speaker 1: it was was notable and he was holding onto it. Um.
Speaker 1: Maybe he was like almost like expecting pain and there wasn't,
Speaker 1: which is a good thing. He does have, of course,
Speaker 1: ten days to recover now. Kiki QT inactive last night.
Speaker 1: I want to fall from grace for this guy. You know,
Speaker 1: if I was talking to some friends last night that
Speaker 1: the other thing I just totally got wrong was like
Speaker 1: liking KIKIQT this year, m v as DONALDO Allison, all
Speaker 1: these guys. He expected a lot from that. You thought
Speaker 1: you could get most of the late year drafts, So
Speaker 1: put up something no nuts most of the year for
Speaker 1: all three break. When we come back, we'll dive game
Speaker 1: by game. You know all of your rankings. We'll see
Speaker 1: what you think when we have some a lot of
Speaker 1: decisions that we have to make them gonna ask you
Speaker 1: about that. On the other side, I mean a lot,
Speaker 1: a lot to do, not a lot of time to
Speaker 1: do it. It's a fantasy BFFs. You're on Sports CD.

Speaker 1: back with you here on a Friday edge the BF apps,
Speaker 1: what's happening in with you? Thanks for watching us on
Speaker 1: Pluto TV channel number five seventeen. Stick with us, and
Speaker 1: uh we'll make you smarter and better fantasy players and
Speaker 1: hopefully winners, hopefully hopefully Indeed. All right, So I asked Frank,
Speaker 1: we have a lot of questions our own league, and
Speaker 1: I said, when can I do that? And he said
Speaker 1: at the end of the show, So let's get right
Speaker 1: to it. Frank, did Westbrook, Jacksonville, Sterling Sheppard, Giants? What
Speaker 1: did you do? I'm gonna go with Dede Westbrook. I
Speaker 1: know he let a lot of people down last week,
Speaker 1: but the way to attack the Tennessee Titans defense is
Speaker 1: through the air. They don't have a great secondary. I
Speaker 1: want to see Sterling Sheppard back for one game and
Speaker 1: Sterling Sheppard play us on the outside when we get
Speaker 1: to the Giants game a little bit later on, I'll
Speaker 1: tell you why I Golden Tate. But the outside cornerbacks
Speaker 1: for the Chicago Bears have played really well so far
Speaker 1: this season, Greg, So between those two, I don't really
Speaker 1: love either. But this is what we've been forced into
Speaker 1: because we didn't start Will Fuller last night. Let's go
Speaker 1: d D. Let's go d D. I don't know Man
Speaker 1: kind of like the Sterley Shepherd move. I know he's
Speaker 1: based in Chicago. D He kind of stinks and he's
Speaker 1: constantly injured. He leaves the game. Well, Greg, the Chicago
Speaker 1: Bears have one of, if not the best pass for
Speaker 1: us in the league, and Daniel Jones is probably going
Speaker 1: to fumble eight times. I'm pretty excited about that. Giants
Speaker 1: and Bears, let's seriously start there. Though. Officieve Lions gotten healthy.
Speaker 1: With the Giants coming off of a bye week's Sakoon
Speaker 1: Bar he has been able to get a little bit
Speaker 1: healthier as well. Daniel Jones obviously in a bad spot.
Speaker 1: A constant question that we're getting, Frank is what do
Speaker 1: we expect from Golden Tate with Sterley Shepherd back facing
Speaker 1: off against his tough Bears defense. Yeah, I would still
Speaker 1: expect Golden Tate to be the guy. There's no Evan
Speaker 1: Ingram in this game. Rhett Ellison has been ruled out.
Speaker 1: There's you know, the third and fourth drink tight end
Speaker 1: for the Giants are now playing for them, which means
Speaker 1: I think more targets for the wide receivers, more targets
Speaker 1: for Sae Kwon Barkley as well. When it comes to
Speaker 1: Golden Tate, Greg, since he has returned in week five,
Speaker 1: he leads the team with of their targets share. He
Speaker 1: has ninety four point three PPR points from weeks one.
Speaker 1: From weeks five through ten, I left out week eleven
Speaker 1: because they were on a bi last week. Over that span,
Speaker 1: Greg Golden Tate is a top ten wide receiver in
Speaker 1: PPR leagues. The way to attack Chicago is in the slot.
Speaker 1: They allow the eighteenth most slot PPR points per game
Speaker 1: so far this season. So I still think that Golden
Speaker 1: Tate is gonna see his eight ten targets. I think
Speaker 1: that he's gonna, you know, he's gonna be a reception
Speaker 1: beast again this week. I think that they're gonna have
Speaker 1: to get rid of the ball quickly out of Daniel
Speaker 1: Jones hand, because again that Chicago Bears pass for us
Speaker 1: is very good and the Giants have struggled allowing pressures
Speaker 1: on Daniel Jones. So I would expect another game at
Speaker 1: of Golden Tate. He's inside my top twenty four, Greg
Speaker 1: inside your top twenty four, Despice, Sterling Sevard coming back
Speaker 1: a Golden Tate owner. Feel good? So thanks man. If
Speaker 1: imagine Daniel Jones is throwing the ball thirty times in
Speaker 1: this game, right, that seems fair. Golden Tap gets ten targets,
Speaker 1: Sterling Shepherd gets six to eight, and then you have,
Speaker 1: you know, between twelve and fourteen targets for Barkley, Darius Slayton,
Speaker 1: you know, the fourth tight end, whatever it might be
Speaker 1: at Simons. And I think that that target breakdown really
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense. You know, people were asking
Speaker 1: about Darius Slayton earlier on in the week, and and
Speaker 1: I know he was a popular waiver wire pick up
Speaker 1: last week when he was on by he crushed the
Speaker 1: New York Jets. But that is a secondary that struggles
Speaker 1: against outside wide receivers. And no, at the time when
Speaker 1: we picked up Darius Slayton, we thought, you know, Sterling
Speaker 1: Shepherd might be out for the rest of the season.
Speaker 1: Now he has clear concussion protocol, he's gonna play. So
Speaker 1: things have changed for Darius Leaden, same with Brandon Couch
Speaker 1: clearingcussion protocol. They play on Monday night now, so we'll
Speaker 1: get to that obviously on Monday. The other side of that,
Speaker 1: we'll do it quickly because I mentioned it was Jacksonville, Tennessee.
Speaker 1: It's certainly not a sexy game by any means. But
Speaker 1: I know yesterday inside the pit, you and Vent you
Speaker 1: were talking of talk Bears before we got into that game.
Speaker 1: Because to the other side, the Bears I want to
Speaker 1: talk about. I'm glad, I'm glad you want to go
Speaker 1: back here. David Montgomery in a good spot, no doubt
Speaker 1: about that. But the guy I really wanted to mention
Speaker 1: with the Bears was Taylor Gabriel because I think he's
Speaker 1: in a fine spot this week as well. If you're
Speaker 1: one of these teams that are affected by the four
Speaker 1: good teams on a buy, I think Taylor Gabriel is
Speaker 1: like a fine dart throat. I'm with you. I liked
Speaker 1: him as a waiver wire pick up. Over the past
Speaker 1: four games for the Chicago Bears. He actually leads the
Speaker 1: team with twenty three percent target share, leads a team
Speaker 1: in receptions receiving yards as well. The Giants allow, you know,
Speaker 1: the fourth most Fantasy points to opposing wide receivers so
Speaker 1: far this season. Taylor Gabriel just had fourteen targets on
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football against the ramp So I'm with you.
Speaker 1: I think Taylor Gabriel is a fine dart throw. I
Speaker 1: like David Montgomery as a high end RB two going
Speaker 1: up against the Giants defense here. And I think terriko
Speaker 1: And is sneaky as well. You know, on the season,
Speaker 1: he has an eighteen percent target share. It seems like
Speaker 1: Trabiski has been you know, throwing him a few of
Speaker 1: those dump off targets a little bit more so far
Speaker 1: this season. The Giants have a out a touchdown or
Speaker 1: one hundred yards rushing who are running back in five
Speaker 1: of their last six games. So I like David Montgomery
Speaker 1: as a high n RB two. I like to reco
Speaker 1: and as a solid flex playing PPR leagues. Anything else
Speaker 1: with the Bears that you wanted to mention. If we
Speaker 1: like Toreco and if we like some of the past catchers,
Speaker 1: then if you're playing a super flex league, I think
Speaker 1: Tisky will be are decent. Here's the problem. Aren't you
Speaker 1: concerned he gets benched? What if he has a bad
Speaker 1: first half, the offense doesn't go anywhere. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: had a bad season and he hasn't been bench greg
Speaker 1: He was benched last game. Come on, that was a
Speaker 1: hit pointer, right, you're not concerned? You should. I don't
Speaker 1: love Trebinsky, obviously, but in a super flex league, he's
Speaker 1: inside my top twenty at the quarterback position. I'll leave
Speaker 1: it at that, all right. Can I go to the
Speaker 1: other game now a little quickly. It's the Jaguars and
Speaker 1: the Titans. It's not a sexy game. And as I
Speaker 1: mentioned you and then you were going, uh cloating and
Speaker 1: not gloating, but like plucking up Derrick Henry in this season?
Speaker 1: What do you think about him this weekend against Jacksonville? Yea, so,
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry has scored a touchdown in eight of ten games,
Speaker 1: which is just crazy. A lot of his fan to
Speaker 1: see production is just due to rushing yards and scoring
Speaker 1: touchdowns because we know that he doesn't catch passes. But
Speaker 1: you know he has seventy percent of his team's red
Speaker 1: zone carries on the season. That is the fourth most
Speaker 1: among running backs so far this year. Jacksonville is allowing
Speaker 1: a league high five point four one yards per carry.
Speaker 1: They just got destroyed by Marlon Mack and Jonathan Williams
Speaker 1: last week in Week eleven. So yes, once again, I
Speaker 1: like Derrick Henry Leonard four Net. You know, Doug Moron
Speaker 1: has come out and said they're gonna get back to
Speaker 1: running the football and giving him a big workload. It's
Speaker 1: probably going to be easier said than done here. I mean,
Speaker 1: they're gonna give him a big workload. Is it gonna
Speaker 1: be successful in it? That's a tough one because Tennessee
Speaker 1: has actually been better against the run so far this season. Greg.
Speaker 1: They are fourth in run defense d v o A.
Speaker 1: The last time Leonard four Nett faced this Titans defense,
Speaker 1: if you remember correctly, Greg, he had a sixty nine
Speaker 1: yard run. That was nice. E finished with sixties six
Speaker 1: total rushing yards in that game, not really nice. So
Speaker 1: he struggled in that game outside of that one long run.
Speaker 1: If you have Leonard Fournett, you're using him. But I
Speaker 1: think you have to, you know, have realistic projections based
Speaker 1: on the way he has played and based on the
Speaker 1: way that the Titans have played defense against the run
Speaker 1: so far this season. Greg, Yeah, absolutely. With the d
Speaker 1: D Westbrook he spoken about before, J Shark has been
Speaker 1: unbelievable you're using d J. Chalk. I mean I didn't
Speaker 1: touch on him just because he's a top ten wide receiver.
Speaker 1: The Titans have struggled against wide receivers, you know, D. D.
Speaker 1: Westbrook more of a lower end wide receiver. Three. I
Speaker 1: don't love it when it comes to the Titans tight ends.
Speaker 1: This is interesting because I want to like John hu Smith.
Speaker 1: He flashed a little bit before there by, but de
Speaker 1: Landy Walker has been practicing on limited basis. It looks
Speaker 1: like he's actually going to play in this game. So
Speaker 1: you know, between Delaney Walker and John Hu Smith, I
Speaker 1: would probably just stay away and see the way that
Speaker 1: this situation kind of plays itself, doesn't play for whatever reason,
Speaker 1: I'll start John. Yeah, Donah would be in the flyer
Speaker 1: discussion end and one potentially Yeah, probably definitely behind the Hollisters,
Speaker 1: the Ryan Griffins, the pickups that we like. He would
Speaker 1: be bed like someone like Dawson Knox to who I
Speaker 1: actually like a decent bitness. I don't hate Dawson Knox either.
Speaker 1: This week, Um, for the record, we have a minute
Speaker 1: and a half left, so I don't want to get
Speaker 1: a game that you're gonna go all over. We'll come
Speaker 1: back with that in a bit. But Cleveland and Miami.
Speaker 1: You're gonna start everybody from Cleveland this week, obviously O'Dell
Speaker 1: and Jarvis and Chubb. But the ones I need to
Speaker 1: ask you about, there's two of them. One Kareem Hunt
Speaker 1: against Miami and to the returning David to Joku against Miami.
Speaker 1: Do you feel comfortable, joke? They've already said it's not
Speaker 1: going to be activated for this game. Really, I thought
Speaker 1: I thought I read he was going to be activated. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that was the latest that I saw. We
Speaker 1: can look it up during the breaks. I mean I
Speaker 1: thought going to be activated. Yeah. I know that he's
Speaker 1: been practicing and he's eligible to return, But the last
Speaker 1: update that I saw was David and Joku will not
Speaker 1: be activated for this game. I do like Jarvis Landry
Speaker 1: quite a bit, Greg, I have him inside my top
Speaker 1: fifteen wide receiver says he's out this week. Yeah. The
Speaker 1: targets have been there for Jarvis Landry to revenge game
Speaker 1: against the Miami Dolphins as well Odell Beckham. This should
Speaker 1: be the get right spot for him. If I like
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, if I like Jarvis injury, I love Baker Mayfield. Man,
Speaker 1: I have missed my QB seven on the week. This
Speaker 1: could easily backfire on me, but I think that he
Speaker 1: shows up. The Miami Dolphins just allowed a QB one
Speaker 1: overall performance to Josh Allen. He threw for three touchdowns.
Speaker 1: He rushed for an additional touchdown. Greg, I like Kareem Hunt.
Speaker 1: I haven't been talking my top twenty four, which seems crazy,
Speaker 1: but the Browns are ten and a half point favorites
Speaker 1: in this game. I think that he's actually gonna get
Speaker 1: some carries later on in this game. He has seventeen
Speaker 1: targets over his first two games. Obviously you're using Nick Chubb. Greg.
Speaker 1: When we come back, we can talk a little bit
Speaker 1: more about DeVante Parker, Um, But outside of that, I
Speaker 1: don't really know what else you're gonna talk about in
Speaker 1: this game. Um. From a Dolphins perspective, we're not Patrick
Speaker 1: Lair Fattery games here. Next NFL season is now upon us,
Speaker 1: and you can be going the eighth person away one
Speaker 1: million dollars in a Fandueler Draft Kings tournament. My setting

Speaker 1: as we went to break, I told you the news
Speaker 1: Delaney Walker is of visually doubtful for this weekend. Might
Speaker 1: ray will hope they'll be able to play, but doubtful
Speaker 1: is the official injury designation. Yeah, so that puts John O.
Speaker 1: Smith into the discussion as a streaming tight end, a
Speaker 1: you know, top fifteen ish tight end. Here are his
Speaker 1: four target totals with in the games that Delaney Walker
Speaker 1: has been out. It's been three, seven, five, and six,
Speaker 1: So specifically those past three games. If you're giving me
Speaker 1: at least five targets out of the tight end position,
Speaker 1: then yeah, I'm gonna have some interest. He's an athletic guy.
Speaker 1: They can use them in the red zone. Uh, they
Speaker 1: spread the ball around a lot in Tennessee. But yeah,
Speaker 1: he's in that conversation now. Is a streaming tight end
Speaker 1: for sure, Greg fair enough. Johnny Smith very much in
Speaker 1: the conversation. So eventually putting in your line on the
Speaker 1: back end tight end one, I know you want to
Speaker 1: talk about two other tight ends that are certainly in
Speaker 1: the tight end one conversation. That's Darren Waller for the Raiders,
Speaker 1: and that's Ryan Griffin for the New York Jets. Be
Speaker 1: a fun one at MetLife stadium, a high scoring, a
Speaker 1: family thing. I know, we like a lot of the
Speaker 1: principles that are in this one. Yeah, forty six and
Speaker 1: a half total in this game. Not a lot of
Speaker 1: high totals. The only game over fifty is that Bucks
Speaker 1: and Falcons game in the Week twelve slate. But I
Speaker 1: do like both of the tight ends in this spot.
Speaker 1: You know, Darren Waller has been hurt by hunter Renfroze
Speaker 1: targets over the middle of the field. There's no doubt
Speaker 1: if you look over the past four or five games
Speaker 1: for Waller, the targets haven't been as high, the ceiling
Speaker 1: hasn't been as high. And of course Foster Moreau just
Speaker 1: won't go away, and he just scores a touchdown every
Speaker 1: now and then. He does just enough to be annoying
Speaker 1: to Darren Waller fantasy owners. But you have to continue
Speaker 1: to roll with Waller based on his target chair this
Speaker 1: season and just his overall upside the way that he
Speaker 1: has played so far this year. When it comes to
Speaker 1: Ryan Griffin, Greg just coming off a monster game over
Speaker 1: a hundred yards and a touchdown against Washington, Oakland allows
Speaker 1: the third most fantasy points to opposing tight ends, So
Speaker 1: I think that is an area of the field where
Speaker 1: the Jets will want to target. And I have Ryan
Speaker 1: Griffin ranks inside my top ten tight ends this week,
Speaker 1: so I do like him ad a bit. I don't
Speaker 1: know if people realize this. Greg. It doesn't scare me
Speaker 1: off Levian Bell, you know, maybe it might scare you
Speaker 1: from a DFS perspective. His snap percentages have been and
Speaker 1: fifty five percent over the past two weeks. He still
Speaker 1: is averaging one touches per game over that span, but
Speaker 1: it's worth mentioning that Levian bell snaps have gone down recently.
Speaker 1: They've been using Ballal Powell a little bit more. When
Speaker 1: it comes to Jets wide receivers. Loves Jamison Crowder had
Speaker 1: it inside my top twenty four last week. He showed
Speaker 1: up against Washington Um. The Oakland Raiders allow the ninth
Speaker 1: most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, so I do
Speaker 1: like Crowder. I think Robby Anderson again, like Taylor Gabriel.
Speaker 1: You know, if you need a dart throw, it's a
Speaker 1: good matchup going up against this Raiders defense. But the
Speaker 1: Jets offensive line does not allow to allow him enough
Speaker 1: time to allow Donald enough time to pass the ball
Speaker 1: down the field, Greg. When it comes to Donald and
Speaker 1: Derek Carr, I have both of these guys inside my
Speaker 1: top twelve quarterbacks and you know, you might find a
Speaker 1: little bit crazy, but I have Derek Carr ten, I
Speaker 1: have Donald at a leven. Just behind those guys Josh Allen,
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, Tom Brady. I'm stripping the name off the
Speaker 1: back of the jersey. I love the matchups here for
Speaker 1: both of them. Yeah, absolutely, so I'm with you. Uh,
Speaker 1: I have Car. I would have Car and Donald over
Speaker 1: those guys as well. It's really, like I said, a
Speaker 1: high scoring matchup we expect. I think both of these
Speaker 1: tight ends are in the top ten conversation as well. Um,
Speaker 1: I think Jameson Crowder has given life to this Jets
Speaker 1: offense with Sam Donald back at the quarterback stop on our.
Speaker 1: Renfro as well has been really really good over the
Speaker 1: last month or so. I believe I've been silver tweeting
Speaker 1: out how he's a top twenty wide receiver over that
Speaker 1: time in PPR leagues. So I think it was actually
Speaker 1: Bowl he was like eighteen and one like twenty and
Speaker 1: the other. So Hunter has been pretty solid in his
Speaker 1: second half of the rookie year. Yeah, if you need
Speaker 1: a PPR play, a bye week replacement, a low end
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Three. Again, really good matchup against the New
Speaker 1: York Jets. I expect some points back and forth here.
Speaker 1: I also think Tyro Williams gets back in the end
Speaker 1: zone this week. Greg, I have Tyro Williams as a
Speaker 1: low end wide receiver too. He's also inside my top
Speaker 1: twenty four alongside j Mson Crowders. So I do like
Speaker 1: both of those guys. A decent bit imagined Tom Brady.
Speaker 1: Arguably the game of the days, the New England Patriots
Speaker 1: taking on the Dallas Cowboys. You have, as I said
Speaker 1: on the FanDuel Harry, even banging the table, even stopping
Speaker 1: your feet, you will leave Dallas wins this one outright.
Speaker 1: You think Dallas is the better team that you like,
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is Ekiel Elliott and the rest of the
Speaker 1: guys this week. So I think it's interesting, right we
Speaker 1: always talk about the Patriots are gonna take away the
Speaker 1: number one weapon for an opposing team. What are they
Speaker 1: gonna take away from the Dallas Cowboys this week? Because
Speaker 1: Imri Cooper has been banged up, but you probably would
Speaker 1: argue that he has been the top weapon for the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys so far this season. I don't know for
Speaker 1: sure that they're the better team, Greg, but I think
Speaker 1: that the New England Patriots have a lot of deficiencies
Speaker 1: on offense right now. They can't run the ball effectively.
Speaker 1: Now they I believe they might be getting Isaiah winnback.
Speaker 1: That's going to help their offensive line, should help their
Speaker 1: ability to run, but their past catchers are banged up.
Speaker 1: Mohammed san News said he's gonna try to practice today
Speaker 1: here on a Friday, November twenty. Philip Dorset in concussion protocol,
Speaker 1: so you know they could be rolling out Edelman, Nikkil,
Speaker 1: Harry Ben Watson as their main pass catchers. I think
Speaker 1: that this game is at least close competitive. I like
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in the spot. I think there's a chance
Speaker 1: that they win it, and the way to attack the
Speaker 1: Patriots defense recently, Greg has been to run the football.
Speaker 1: I'm expecting a pretty good game out of Ezekiel Elliott.
Speaker 1: I know that the efficiency hasn't been there for him,
Speaker 1: the workload has. I expect a good game for him.
Speaker 1: I am a little bit worried about a Marie Cooper
Speaker 1: and Michael Gallup. I have them lower than I have
Speaker 1: had them the past couple of weeks. I have a
Speaker 1: Marie Cooper as my wide receiver six team. He's normally
Speaker 1: been a wide receiver one toss. Michael Gallup is more
Speaker 1: of a you know, middling high end wide receiver three,
Speaker 1: whereas last week he was a wide receiver to play
Speaker 1: for me, I think that I think it's hard to
Speaker 1: like the Cowboys and not really like the wide receivers,
Speaker 1: kind of like you are, um, unless you think have
Speaker 1: the big Zke get. I think Zeke is gonna have
Speaker 1: a big games. I think that Jason Witten can have
Speaker 1: a sneaky game here. So my thing is rank he is.
Speaker 1: I said to see last week that Dak Fresh has
Speaker 1: been awesome over the last couple of weeks. I want
Speaker 1: to see him do it against a real defense. Patriots
Speaker 1: obviously are as real as they get, so I'm not
Speaker 1: necessarily with you or Gabe on the Cowboys. Probably not
Speaker 1: gonna plays a wager on this one, but I want
Speaker 1: to see it against the real Devens before we start
Speaker 1: crowning Dak. When it comes to QB rankings, it's worth
Speaker 1: mentioning I have Dak Prescott as myke QB nine, So
Speaker 1: I still have him ahead of Sam Donald and I
Speaker 1: wrestled with Car because I like Car and I like Donald.
Speaker 1: I like the matchup. But when it comes to Doc,
Speaker 1: he's just played so well. Greg, at least eighteen fantasy
Speaker 1: points in every game this season. A lot of those
Speaker 1: have been really good matchups. He has three touchdown passes
Speaker 1: exactly in three straight games. I'm not playing he's gonna
Speaker 1: do that against the Patriots. Um, I don't have it
Speaker 1: up off the off the top of my head here, Greg.
Speaker 1: But again, the matchups they've they've been good for deck.
Speaker 1: Let's see here, it's been the Lions, the Vikings, and
Speaker 1: the Giants. Those are those are good matchups you could
Speaker 1: throw on those teams. But I think Uh to be
Speaker 1: a top ten quarterback this week. If Dak finishes with
Speaker 1: two seventy five and two or two seventy five and
Speaker 1: one with some rushing yardage, I still think that he
Speaker 1: could finish as a top ten quarterback this week. I'm
Speaker 1: a little bit more worried about Tom Brady. He's throwing
Speaker 1: the ball a lot, but not doing not doing it
Speaker 1: with a lot of success. So I do like the
Speaker 1: Cowboys a decent bit in the spot alright, Cowboys against
Speaker 1: Patriots Juliettiman obviously a really good spot for New England.
Speaker 1: We haven't got a reward on Snewer door, say right,
Speaker 1: the designation is gonna Nothing has come out definitively on
Speaker 1: those guys. Yet. I realized I didn't get a chance
Speaker 1: to talk about the Patriots running backs. It's, you know,
Speaker 1: trying to figure this out. You know what it's like,
Speaker 1: right if you own one of these guys. It's frustrating
Speaker 1: every single week, Sony Michelle, he has touchdown dependent. He
Speaker 1: is not running the ball efficiently the past three games.
Speaker 1: James White leads his team with of the snaps and
Speaker 1: I think in more competitive games you are going to
Speaker 1: see more James White. So look in PPR leagues. James White.
Speaker 1: He's a high inflex he is what he is every
Speaker 1: single week. If he gets in the end zone, he'll
Speaker 1: end up being an RB two. But based on his
Speaker 1: target share, um, you know, James White is obviously in
Speaker 1: play here. Dallas has allowed the third most receptions to
Speaker 1: running back so far this season. Sony Michelle more of
Speaker 1: a middling RB three flex play and I don't feel
Speaker 1: good about Sony Michelle, you can't. You're not gonna feel
Speaker 1: good about him until he has that next three touchdown performance,
Speaker 1: which is gonna come when he's on everyone's bench. Greg,
Speaker 1: I know you know obviously it's it's inevitable. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I know you like Ben Watson as a streamer. He's
Speaker 1: worth mentioning. Dallas has struggled big time against tight ends,
Speaker 1: and again the Patriots pass catchers are banged up. Man.
Speaker 1: I'll bring it up again. I brought it up during
Speaker 1: the break. I'll say it on the air. We came
Speaker 1: back with Johnny Smith, john Smith or Ben Watson. I'll
Speaker 1: take Ben Watson just because it's been a better matchup.
Speaker 1: You know. Tight ends again have done very well against
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. The Jaguars have been a little bit
Speaker 1: tougher on tight ends. All right, let's move on frights.
Speaker 1: Another game. It's Pittsburgh and Cincinnati Steelers are without Juicemith Schuster.
Speaker 1: There wereout James Conner this week, but Johnson does look
Speaker 1: like he's going to play on Sunday. Uh coming back
Speaker 1: in this concussion pretty quickly after they played Thursday Night
Speaker 1: Football a week or so ago. The Bengals they don't
Speaker 1: really have anybody A. J Green has been ruled out
Speaker 1: on and Tate may not play. He's questionable in this one,
Speaker 1: I doubt I agree. We saw a lot of Joe
Speaker 1: mix in last week, but as Gabe was telling me
Speaker 1: earlier that Ryan Finley starting for like three point three
Speaker 1: yards per attempt. At this point, it's been brutal for him. Now.
Speaker 1: He's very bad. Joe Mixon like it was awesome last week,
Speaker 1: he's been awesome in the past two weeks. Be awesome
Speaker 1: against the Steelers defense, probably not awesome. I think he's
Speaker 1: still in the RB two discussion. Who would have thought, Greg,
Speaker 1: that Ryan Finley starting for the Cincinnati Bengals is what
Speaker 1: was needed to unlock the potential of Joe Mixon. This
Speaker 1: is just it doesn't make any sense because you would
Speaker 1: think that with Ryan Finley on the field, teams creep
Speaker 1: up their safeties, they play more men in the box.
Speaker 1: It's tougher for Joe Mixon to find holes. But that
Speaker 1: hasn't been the case with Finley starting. Joe Mixon has
Speaker 1: seen sixty eight percent of this nest. That has gone
Speaker 1: up from when Andy Dalton was starting forty five carries
Speaker 1: over the past two weeks, seventy of the Bengals carries
Speaker 1: ten percent targets, share six red zone carries. Uh, it's
Speaker 1: not a great matchup. Pittsburgh has been good against the run,
Speaker 1: but I think based on the way Joe Mixon has
Speaker 1: played the past two weeks, they're leaning more on the
Speaker 1: run with Ryan Finley as the quarterback. He's a vlume
Speaker 1: play that might score a touchdown because they're now using
Speaker 1: him inside the red zone. So to me, Joe Mixon
Speaker 1: is an RB two. I think Tyler Boyd squeaky wheel
Speaker 1: game here. The Steelers have struggled a little bit against
Speaker 1: slot wide receivers. They have allowed a slot receiver to
Speaker 1: score a touchdown in three of their last four games.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that Tyler Boyd is a must start,
Speaker 1: but I think he is a solid to high end
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Three. You know, a lot of people see
Speaker 1: what he did last week and they're automatically gonna say
Speaker 1: there's no way I can use Tyler Boyd. You know,
Speaker 1: once these guys start chirping a little bit, that's when
Speaker 1: they start to get some targets. Based on everyone being
Speaker 1: banged up for Cincinnati, I think that Tyler Boyd does
Speaker 1: see probably eight ten targets in this game. In Week twelve,
Speaker 1: Greg on the other side, Juju has been ruled out,
Speaker 1: James Conner has been ruled out. We've been talking about
Speaker 1: the Steelers running backs all week. I still think Jalen
Speaker 1: Samuel's is the main guy. And then after that, your
Speaker 1: guest is as good as mine. I would probably lean
Speaker 1: towards Trey Edmunds just because he has been the running
Speaker 1: back active over the past couple of weeks. And yes,
Speaker 1: Deonte Johnson replaces James washing Cinema in my rankings as
Speaker 1: a low wind wide receiver three a lot more games.
Speaker 1: Yet you know, not a lot of time to do
Speaker 1: it well well quickly for the next twenty minutes. BFS

Speaker 1: much time to do it? Let's go, Let's just jump
Speaker 1: right in here on. Let's go to the NFC South
Speaker 1: where we have two big NFC South matchups, two matchups
Speaker 1: that have a tone of fantasy implications. Will begin with
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons because they're facing off in the best
Speaker 1: magic you possibly have, Damn May Buccaneers, which means a
Speaker 1: lot is in play for Matt Ryan and friends. Start. Everybody, Greg,
Speaker 1: well maybe not everybody fifty one and a half total
Speaker 1: in this game, But I do like Matt Ryan, and
Speaker 1: I know we called Jamis Winston a an interception machine
Speaker 1: earlier on in the week, but if you look at
Speaker 1: his game log, it's actually quite incredible what he's been
Speaker 1: able to do from a fantasy perspective. He turns the
Speaker 1: ball over two to three times every single week. You
Speaker 1: know that that's gonna be a lock, But if you
Speaker 1: look at his game log, he's still giving you eighteen
Speaker 1: to twenty five fantasy points every single week. There's just
Speaker 1: so much volume. When it comes to Jamis Winston, you
Speaker 1: gotta continue to start Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. I
Speaker 1: know that it's been a tougher go recently for Chris Godwin,
Speaker 1: and you know it's very boom or bust with Mike Evans.
Speaker 1: But that boom when he booms is quite amazing. And
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not ready to just completely crown this
Speaker 1: Falcons defense. I do like them as a stream because
Speaker 1: you know Jamis is gonna turn the ball over. But
Speaker 1: let me let me see it three weeks in a row.
Speaker 1: Because I still think that d J. Moore had a
Speaker 1: good game last week against this Falcons defense. Curtis Samuel
Speaker 1: could have had a better game. I know that there
Speaker 1: was a few drops involved there. So I'm still trusting
Speaker 1: the Falcons wide receivers Greg when it comes to the
Speaker 1: when the Bucks wide receivers, excuse me. When it comes
Speaker 1: to the running backs, I do not like Ronald Jones
Speaker 1: in the spot. I have him as a lower end
Speaker 1: RB three, a lower and flex. Over the past three weeks,
Speaker 1: he's playing of the Snaps, Darry Gooma, Wally Peyton, Barber
Speaker 1: nineteen percent. They all have at least three red zone
Speaker 1: touches during that span. It's still a very frustrating situation.
Speaker 1: If you can get away from Rojo Vntra, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: please do so this week. On the other side, Greg Uh,
Speaker 1: you love Matt Ryan, you love Julio Jones, you love
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley in the spot, I have both Julio and
Speaker 1: Ridley inside my top twelve this week. This Buck secondary
Speaker 1: is legitimately that bad, and I think that their run
Speaker 1: defense is starting to show some cracks recently as well.
Speaker 1: Carson had a hundred rushing yards against him. Kenyan Drake
Speaker 1: had six receptions. Kamara had ten receptions last week. Those
Speaker 1: are each of the past three games. Brian Hill played
Speaker 1: sixty percent of the snatch last week. Greg, he has
Speaker 1: thirty five carries over his last two games. To me,
Speaker 1: I am going back to the well with Brian Hill
Speaker 1: as a high end flex option this week. I know
Speaker 1: that on paper you think it's a tough match against
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. It's shown a few more cracks recently. I
Speaker 1: think the volume is gonna be there for him. I
Speaker 1: don't love the Brian Hill start this week. He's not
Speaker 1: in tide my top twenty four. He's not like a
Speaker 1: must start play. He's he's a flex play. I go
Speaker 1: back to all the other guys I mentioned yesterday, Darius Guys,
Speaker 1: Jalen Samuel's post. I would use all three of those
Speaker 1: over Brian Hill. Okay, yep, it's like there's me an
Speaker 1: idea of where you have them. Then okay, um, anything
Speaker 1: else in this game before we move on. Now, just
Speaker 1: start all the wide receivers. Would you start Cameron Brad No,
Speaker 1: I don't want to know. Okay, I can't, dude, I like,
Speaker 1: you never know if O. J. Howard's gonna bounce back
Speaker 1: this game. I understand the targets were there for Cameron Braid.
Speaker 1: The Falcons are you know, middle of the pack against
Speaker 1: tight ends. I trust the wide receivers on Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: That's about as far as I can go, all right.
Speaker 1: And the other NFC South game between Carolina and New Orleans.
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen was brutal last week. Over the past month,
Speaker 1: he's been terrible. New Orleans Saints obviously got back to
Speaker 1: their winning ways last week. It's a great great spot
Speaker 1: for Alvin Camara. I believe he's the top running back
Speaker 1: on your rankings this week. He is a top three
Speaker 1: running back. Fine so he's top three running back. You
Speaker 1: said that any week UM with Kamara, I believe in
Speaker 1: store right awesome, awesome match. I think Michael Thomas as
Speaker 1: well for Carolina UM d J. Moore and he wants
Speaker 1: to talk about him. He's been fantastic recently, some touchdown
Speaker 1: positive touchdown aggression better becoming his way. Probably not Greig.
Speaker 1: This is Julio two point oh. When it comes to
Speaker 1: d J Moore, He's getting a ton of targets, a
Speaker 1: ton of receptions and yards, not scoring any touchdowns. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure it's gonna happen this week. Marshawn Lattimore looks
Speaker 1: like he's not gonna play again. He hasn't practiced all week.
Speaker 1: Haven't seen the practice report yet for today, but normally
Speaker 1: you don't practice Wednesday, you don't practice Thursday. I'm not
Speaker 1: feeling good about Marshawn Lattimore. D J Moore double digit
Speaker 1: targets in four of his last five games. You're going
Speaker 1: to continue to fire him up. Curtis Samuel for me,
Speaker 1: high end wide receiver three. The upside is kind of
Speaker 1: limited for these two, just because Kyle Allen has not
Speaker 1: played well over the past month. Just three touchdowns eight
Speaker 1: interceptions for Kyle Allen during that span. Obviously you're using
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. You don't need me to tell you that.
Speaker 1: From a DFS perspective, you better find some value plays
Speaker 1: if you want to use McCaffrey, because it is getting
Speaker 1: really really tough out there to use Christian McCaffrey. Greg
Speaker 1: brew Brees since returning has three touchdown passes in two
Speaker 1: of three games. Carolina has allowed over three passing yards
Speaker 1: and four of their last six. We know that they
Speaker 1: struggle against the run, they're actually starting to struggle against
Speaker 1: the past now as well. So I'm firing up Drew
Speaker 1: Brees obviously using Michael Thomas. I don't want to fool
Speaker 1: around with Ted Gain and Trey Kwan Smith. You never
Speaker 1: know on a weekly basis who it's going to be
Speaker 1: between those two. I think Jared Cook is a fine
Speaker 1: low end tight end one. He scored the touchdown last week,
Speaker 1: only had two targets. Kamara really love him for DFS.
Speaker 1: Greg Caroline allowing four point eight yards per carried of
Speaker 1: running backs the third most Fantasy points. I think Latavias
Speaker 1: Murray is actually in play as a flax option as well,
Speaker 1: even if you get you know, ten to twelve touches,
Speaker 1: those touches can be really efficient against this Panthers. He
Speaker 1: had ten touches last or ten carries last week, including
Speaker 1: the first carry the game. As twelve you are run
Speaker 1: up the middle. So I think we'll Tavia's Murray certainly
Speaker 1: in play against the bad Carolina Panthers rush defense. I
Speaker 1: think he's desperation flex What do you can tas Murray
Speaker 1: and Brian Hill. I have Brian Hill a few spots times.
Speaker 1: I understand that the the matchup is better for Latavious Murray,
Speaker 1: but for me, I am expecting Brian Hill to get fifteen,
Speaker 1: eighteen touches in this game, hopefully hopefully obviously um that happens.
Speaker 1: I like Ted gain over trackline Smith called a gut
Speaker 1: called ever you want the rhyme reason to it, you know,
Speaker 1: But if we're talking about dart throws, you like the
Speaker 1: Taylor Gabriels Robert Robber matchups. I mean not that's just
Speaker 1: better matters, but like I feel like the Panthers have
Speaker 1: struggled against the past recently. I just like that they're
Speaker 1: more of a guarantee Theoryically, I don't know, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: they are on the they are on the field more,
Speaker 1: and you don't have to worry about someone like Michael
Speaker 1: Thomas getting as many targies. I mentioned Darius Guys in
Speaker 1: most Garborough a few times now. These two teams play
Speaker 1: each other, that the Lions and the Jeff Driskell against
Speaker 1: Swayne Hasket. Oh my god, what a game we got here.
Speaker 1: I have both both Scarborough and Darius Guys ranked inside
Speaker 1: my top twenty four this week. Greg, call me crazy.
Speaker 1: We've been talking about both scarbro all week long. The
Speaker 1: Washington Redskins allowed the seventh most fantasy points to opposing
Speaker 1: running backs when it comes to Darius Guys, Yes, they
Speaker 1: used three running backs last week. They were trailing for
Speaker 1: a lot of that game. That is why Wendell Smallwood
Speaker 1: played of the snaps. But Darius Guys, you saw it.
Speaker 1: In the second half. They started to go away from
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson started to get Darius Guys a little bit
Speaker 1: more involved. Greg. Someone in the chat asked how many
Speaker 1: touches do you expect Darius Guys to get this week?
Speaker 1: I said, I think twelve to fifteen. I was gonna
Speaker 1: I think that he's gonna be in that mix. And
Speaker 1: you know the Detroit Lions are not a good defense.
Speaker 1: They've allowed seventeen total touchdowns of running backs this year,
Speaker 1: the second most fantasy points to the position. I'm in
Speaker 1: on both Darius Guys and Bo Scarbro. I really hope
Speaker 1: this one does not blow up in my Come on man,
Speaker 1: one time, one time. We've the lines running back in
Speaker 1: the last month. May this one be right. You should
Speaker 1: be able to use Terry McLaurin in this spot too,
Speaker 1: but he was in a good spot against the Jets
Speaker 1: last How you feel good about it? It's you know,
Speaker 1: the Lions defense has has struggled overall. They are one
Speaker 1: of three teams that allow an average of four total
Speaker 1: yards of offense every single week, and they allow the
Speaker 1: fourth fourth most fantasy points to quarterbacks. But you just
Speaker 1: can't trust Dwayne Haskins right now. I think if you're
Speaker 1: playing a deeper league, pay attention to Kelvin Harmon. He
Speaker 1: actually led this team in targets last week, Greg and
Speaker 1: he has another rookie wide receiver for them, so I
Speaker 1: think him and Haskins were playing together on the scout team.
Speaker 1: Just saying in deeper leagues, how deep is a league?
Speaker 1: At Kelvin Harmon NFFC high stakes leagues. I mean we're
Speaker 1: talking about ten bench spots. Kevin Harmon owned that league,
Speaker 1: I don't think, so let me go pick him up.
Speaker 1: Oh man, there you go with that up next Denver
Speaker 1: and Buffalo. Good one here. Theoretically, no game. Obviously, Bill
Speaker 1: is gonna destroy them. We've talked a lot about nobody
Speaker 1: circles the wagons. Greg, we feel like a lot about
Speaker 1: Noah Fan This week, I was a really tough spot
Speaker 1: for him. Where did he fall ultimately in your Tighten rankings?
Speaker 1: So I have no A Fan as my tight end twelve. Okay,
Speaker 1: based on volume? Where's the John Smith fall? I hadn't
Speaker 1: updated them yet based on Delaney Walker being out, but
Speaker 1: I can kind of ballpark this right now at the
Speaker 1: top of my head, John nu Smith, I'll put him
Speaker 1: up to tight end seventeen. So I'll have him just
Speaker 1: behind Ross Dwelly, our guy, Jason Witten, and Dawson Knox.
Speaker 1: Then John new Smith's gonna slod in right behind those guys.
Speaker 1: But based on the target share the volume that Noah
Speaker 1: Fan has been receiving, Brandon Allen does not throw to
Speaker 1: the running backs as much as Joe Flacco did. It's
Speaker 1: basically no A Fan, Tim Patrick and Courtland Sutton in
Speaker 1: the past game. So, uh, it's a really tough matchup
Speaker 1: for Noah Fan. I realized that, But I mean, you're
Speaker 1: talking about a tight end that's now receiving double digit
Speaker 1: targets in a game. You gotta like that type of volume. Greg, Absolutely,
Speaker 1: you have no choice, but like the volume no A Fan,
Speaker 1: even though the matchup was brutal. He's a number two
Speaker 1: options on the team outside of a Courtland Sunton. And
Speaker 1: you know that Genarius White's gonna be on Courtland Sutton,
Speaker 1: which means maybe no offense, maybe Tim Patrick, Tim Patrick game,
Speaker 1: probably not. I'm still trusting Courtland Sutton if I own him.
Speaker 1: He's not the Sis. One week, I have him inside
Speaker 1: my top twenty. I have him at wide receiver eighteen.
Speaker 1: So the reason the reason I asked a little bit,
Speaker 1: he's had him before after Marie Cooper. This week you
Speaker 1: have after I have him after. Yes. So I actually
Speaker 1: put out a poll before the show, Gregg asking about
Speaker 1: wide receivers with tough matchups, and I have them ranks
Speaker 1: all in order. It's a Marie Cooper wide receiver sixteen.
Speaker 1: John Brown Courtland Sutton and then Cooper cup I have
Speaker 1: them in that order from wide receiver sixteen through nineteen.
Speaker 1: I saw this pole that you put up. It is
Speaker 1: like the hardest pole that you have had in a
Speaker 1: very long time. It's good. That means it's a good point.
Speaker 1: Literally sat here being like, I don't I don't know
Speaker 1: what to say. John Brown is if you trust John Brown,
Speaker 1: if you look at the percentages, two percent, that's the
Speaker 1: closest poll we've ever had. It's a good pull. It's
Speaker 1: an excellent pol Frank, well done, well done. So I
Speaker 1: still do trust John Brown in the spot. I understand
Speaker 1: he's likely gonna see Chris Harris. We saw Chris Harris
Speaker 1: get beat for a deep touchdown against Stephon Diggs last week.
Speaker 1: We know if there's one thing that John Brown is
Speaker 1: gonna be able to do, it is beat somebody deep
Speaker 1: behind the defense catch that deep ball. But the targets
Speaker 1: have been incredibly consistent for John Brown as well, Greg
Speaker 1: He is fourth in the NFL among wide receivers with
Speaker 1: a twenty six percent target share. So do not get
Speaker 1: scared off of John Brown, in my opinion. Devin Singletary
Speaker 1: has played six of the snaps nice over over the
Speaker 1: past four weeks for the Buffalo Bill since week eight,
Speaker 1: fourteen percent targets share, so you know he's seeing more snaps.
Speaker 1: He's seeing more targets than frank Or, but frank Or
Speaker 1: will not go away. Ten red zone opportunities for Devin
Speaker 1: Singletary during that span. Frank Gore has eight, so single
Speaker 1: Terry more of a low n RB two. I'm not
Speaker 1: a hire on him this week, as I have been
Speaker 1: the past couple of weeks. Denver allows just three point
Speaker 1: seven yards per carried running backs. Dalvin Cook struggled against
Speaker 1: this Denver Broncos defense last week. Greg, So, I think
Speaker 1: it's a tougher match up here for Devin Singletary. Uh
Speaker 1: and then Josh Allen. People are gonna have a lot
Speaker 1: of questions, Greg. He is my QB twelve. I would
Speaker 1: use both Donald and Derek Carr ahead of him, but
Speaker 1: I'm not completely off of him. That rushing, that rushing
Speaker 1: production gives him a pretty safe floor team my league.
Speaker 1: He's Jacoby Brissette last night over Josh, I wouldn't have
Speaker 1: done that. Eagles and Seahawks up next from Philadelphia. Good
Speaker 1: spot for DK metcalf rank yeah, especially because Tyler Lockett
Speaker 1: is still banged up. We don't know if Tyler Lockett
Speaker 1: is going to play in this game. But again, you
Speaker 1: can't have success on the outside against this Philadelphia Eagles defense.
Speaker 1: Tell that to my Mohammed sanow Love from last week.
Speaker 1: But DK Metcalf, the targets have been there for him recently.
Speaker 1: Completely wrong about him coming into the year. I thought
Speaker 1: he was a one trick pony. But maybe that's all
Speaker 1: right in the Seattle Seahawks offense because Russell Wilson arguably
Speaker 1: the best deep ball thrower in the game. So I
Speaker 1: do like to a meccalf as a high end wide receiver. Three.
Speaker 1: We don't know what's going on with this Eagle's running
Speaker 1: back situation. Miles Sanders played of the snaps last week
Speaker 1: but didn't wasn't able to make the most of that opportunity.
Speaker 1: I do like Hollister, He's inside my top ten. I
Speaker 1: do like both zach Ertz and Dallas Goddard as well.
Speaker 1: Greg And you're using Russell Wilson. If Tyler Lockett plays,
Speaker 1: you're obviously using him as well. But maybe just you know,
Speaker 1: tick down your expectations a little bit because he is
Speaker 1: still banged up. Um, I don't really like Carson Wentz
Speaker 1: in this spot. I know that the Seattle Seahawks defense
Speaker 1: is not good, but this Eagles offense has not and
Speaker 1: they haven't been clicking over the past you know, a
Speaker 1: month or so either. So I have Carson Wentz, you know,
Speaker 1: outside my top fifteen quarterbacks. Graig, I don't really like
Speaker 1: him very much. Alright, one last year to get to
Speaker 1: it's Sunday Night football, the Niners and the Green Bay Packers.
Speaker 1: The Niners, you kind of know what you're getting, so
Speaker 1: it's very easy we can skip over that. But for
Speaker 1: the forty Niners, we don't know the status of Deebo Samuel.
Speaker 1: We don't know the status of Emanuel Sanders. We don't
Speaker 1: know the status of George Kittle. Who do you wait
Speaker 1: for and who do you just say goodbye to? I
Speaker 1: don't think that George Kittle is going to play in
Speaker 1: this game. But you know, if someone in your league
Speaker 1: dropped Ross Dwelly, and you're a George Kittle owner picked
Speaker 1: him up, and you know, if he doesn't go, then
Speaker 1: you used Ross Willy. If he does, then then obviously
Speaker 1: you get George Kittle in your lineup. Um. Pay attention
Speaker 1: to the practice report today, see what happens here, because
Speaker 1: I think that we're gonna get some points back and
Speaker 1: forth year Greg, which means Deebo Samuel. The targets have
Speaker 1: been there. I want to like him, but he's banged up.
Speaker 1: So it is a very it's a very tough situation here,
Speaker 1: but definitely something to pay attention to. You love those
Speaker 1: Niners running backs going up against this Green Bay Packers defense.
Speaker 1: Wag your talk is out next fall by out the
Speaker 1: window for Frank Stanfell. I'm Gregg Sousman. Have a great weekend.
Speaker 1: We'll see him Monday. We hope NFL season is now
Speaker 1: upon us and you can be going the eighth person
Speaker 1: away in one million dollars in a Fandueler Draft Kings tournament.
Speaker 1: My setting lineup using the Daily Order dot Com DFS
Speaker 1: a lot of optimizer. If you're playing Dailey Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: and not using Daily Order dot Com, you're doing it wrong.
Speaker 1: Sign it now for the NFL Access with a faster, optimized,
Speaker 1: smarter DFS projections and better results into promo code action
Speaker 1: for a ten percent discount. And that's promo code action
Speaker 1: for a ten percent discount. Taylor Order dot Com where
Speaker 1: millionaires are made. What did happen? Here's what you missed
Speaker 1: on the BFFs. Jordan Wilkins, Greig one snap, one route,
Speaker 1: ran zero carries, zero targets. We know who the guy
Speaker 1: is gonna be, assuming Marlon Mack is out for the
Speaker 1: next however many weeks you don't know anything is when
Speaker 1: Marlon mac comes back, right, Because Jonathan Williams kind of
Speaker 1: earned a role now, hasn't it. Yeah, he certainly has,
Speaker 1: you know, And what I said earlier on in the week,
Speaker 1: the reason why I like Jonathan Williams was that he
Speaker 1: proved to the Colts coaching staff that he can handle
Speaker 1: the workload, that he can perform well. Last week he
Speaker 1: ran for over a hundred yards on thirteen carries, So
Speaker 1: I think that he earned their trust and that's why
Speaker 1: they ended up giving him. You know, I don't think
Speaker 1: anybody saw this type of workload coming twenty nine touches
Speaker 1: in this game for Jonathan Williams, But you know, he
Speaker 1: made the most of it. Didn't run incredibly efficiently here,
Speaker 1: only four yards per carry, but he did enough and
Speaker 1: he scored a touchdown as well. He had a few receptions.
Speaker 1: It was. You know, look, if you started John and Williams,
Speaker 1: you are very very happy with what you ended up getting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: freaking litely, he was unbelievable for the Colts. Last night.
Speaker 1: On the other side of the Houston Texans, DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 1: had a big time game that see why Hilton typ
Speaker 1: a game that we expected. Hopkins with those two touchdowns
Speaker 1: long touchdowns as well, which was awesome. And then Will
Speaker 1: Fowler welcome back like he missed no time because he
Speaker 1: was the same exact role he always plays on this team.
Speaker 1: It was insane. Man just stepped right back in And
Speaker 1: admittedly I said yesterday, don't know what to expect from
Speaker 1: will Fuller, but he stepped up in a big way
Speaker 1: against a a solid secondary. Right the Colts don't have
Speaker 1: any lockdown cornerbacks. They play more zone coverage than you know,
Speaker 1: most defenses. But will Fuller man made the most of
Speaker 1: this opportunity of the snaps yesterday. Ran thirty one routes
Speaker 1: on thirty three Watson dropbacks. Finished with game highs across
Speaker 1: the board eleven targets, thirty nine percent target share, seven
Speaker 1: receptions a hundred and forty yards. What sucks, Greg is
Speaker 1: we still know that the floor is low at times
Speaker 1: for a little fuller because he leaves with injury. He
Speaker 1: is a big he's a big play threat. But if
Speaker 1: he's not converting on those big plays, then you know
Speaker 1: we we could see a lower floor from him. This
Speaker 1: is gonna end up being one of his better boom plays.
Speaker 1: And he was. He wasn't in the lineup for anybody.
Speaker 1: I would imagine I'll look that up to see what
Speaker 1: his start percentage. He was not in our lineup. DeAndre
Speaker 1: Hopkins was awesome last night. Had that blow up game
Speaker 1: that we were hoping for for a while. T Y Hilton, Greg,
Speaker 1: you know, we knew what the risk was going into
Speaker 1: this game, and I had him ranked as my wide
Speaker 1: receiver fourteen. I was very aggressive. It was a good
Speaker 1: matchup going up against Houston. I wasn't just playing off
Speaker 1: the narrative that he owns them. They are a bad secondary.
Speaker 1: I mean, lot of wide receivers have done well against him,
Speaker 1: not just t Y Hilton, but ultimately in the spot great.
Speaker 1: You could see that he was limited. He was jogging
Speaker 1: up and down the sideline a lot in this game.
Speaker 1: The Colts had sixties seven offensive plays in this game.
Speaker 1: Game he played on twenty five of them,
