1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: Just a few days left to set your championship line

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 1: up for Week seventeen. If your team is still alive,

3
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: you won't want to miss Michael Fabiano's starts and sits

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 1: for the final week of the regular season. Plus who's

5
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: number one? We're previewing the first round of next year's

6
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: fantasy draft. I have a feeling c. J. Spiller's name

7
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: won't be mentioned. I'm just saying, and as these injured

8
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: stars worked their way back, what you're worth a high

9
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 1: draft pick in? And what's you are too risky to touch?

10
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: For fantasy owners. NFL Fantasy Live starts right and now

11
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: he's in the AZERI so what you want. It's in

12
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live, presented by Geico, the official Fantasy football show.

13
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: So it was a little bit the camera was low

14
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,639
Speaker 1: and I was getting ready to rhyme. Yeah, I get

15
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: a little motion sickness from this thing being so close.

16
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: Happy holidays, fans, we get ready to get you set four.

17
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: Week seventeen in the National Football League, and big news

18
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: from Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy announcing on Thursday,

19
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers will start Sunday against the Bears. Here's McCarthy

20
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: this morning on his franchise qb Okay, I'll start with

21
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: the announcement that we're preparing for the Chicago Bears with

22
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers as our starting quarterback. Every football player that

23
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: that plays in his game Sunday will have risk, and

24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: I think we all understand that. Um So, we've done

25
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: our due diligence, We've gone through all the evaluations, and

26
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: we feel it's time for Aaron. Ready. It's ready, It's

27
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: time for Aaron is ready to play. He looks very

28
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 1: excited to get Aaron Rodgers back in the line. He's

29
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: gone to the Bill Belichick school of press conferences. Clearly.

30
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: All right, So the big question, now, you made it

31
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 1: this far, are you able to get by with a

32
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: different quarterback outside of Aaron Rodgers? Can you take Aaron

33
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: Rodgers and put him in your lineup? If you're playing

34
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: for a championship this week? Why not? It's Aaron Rodgers

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: and they have everything to play for. In Green Bay,

36
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: that game basically is to ur die. Why not start

37
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: Rogers in risk? Another quarterback who may or may not

38
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: play a whole game. I'd say this the only quarterback

39
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: I'd start over Rogers who you can actually have Nick

40
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: on your team? Is Nick Foles? They only took seventeen weeks.

41
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: Let's see what this exactly. Most fantasy leagues wrapped up

42
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: their championships in Week sixteen. Lots of people out there

43
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: still playing for a championship. This Sunday always tricky with

44
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: coaches benching starters before the playoffs. Let's take a look

45
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: at Michael Fabiano starts and sits for weeks seventeam starting

46
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: with the quarterbacks. Yes on Nick Foles, Yes on Matthew Stafford,

47
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: Yes on Jay Cutler, Sleep alert Terrell Prior against the Broncos.

48
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 1: You've been up. You've loved TP all season. I do

49
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: love Nissa TP. The last time he played the Denver Broncos,

50
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: surprisingly he had almost nineteen Fantasy points. Well, I wasn't surprised.

51
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: A lot of people were, though. This is a very

52
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: good matchup in the Broncos. They're not playing for too much.

53
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: How about Nick Foles see seventy fantasy points on Sunday

54
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys. Wouldn't be surprised. Well, maybe not five

55
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: year sixty, but he can give you right around twenty

56
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: five to thirty against this Dallas Cowboys defense. Which is

57
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: all banged up right now and one of the best

58
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: defenses if we're talking about fantasy matchups. He's got Roddy

59
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: White back being healthy, but you have Matt Ryan as

60
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: a sit this week. Tough match up against the Panthers

61
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: given up the second fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this

62
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: season and only fifteen touchdown passes, and the Panthers still

63
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: have something on the line right there, playing for that

64
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: first round by real quick, You're playing Roddy White. Roddy

65
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: White to me, is it too? But this is a

66
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: bad matchup. This is a really bad match up. Let's

67
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: move on to the running backs now, and these are

68
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: Michael Fabiano's recommendations four week seventeen. You are playing for

69
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: a championship this week. Certain guys you like. Reggie Bush

70
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: is someone on the yes list, So is Lady on

71
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: Bell Eddie Lacy. You're sleeper Nile Davis. But this is

72
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: not just because you like Nile Davis. This is the

73
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: Chiefs may sit Jamal Charles. That is the problem. If

74
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles plays one series, two series, and six, Nile

75
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: Davis will come in and he featured back for Kansas City.

76
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: This is why you don't play Week seventeen Championships. Lots

77
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: of people are nervous about Reggie Bush. He's got one

78
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: touchdown on the road this season. Why is he a

79
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: start for you? Playing the Vikings, this is a fantastic matchup.

80
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: They've given up the eighth most fantasy points of running

81
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: backs this season, and way back in Week one, Reggie

82
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: Bush had a hundred nine one scrimmage yards, one touchdown

83
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: and twenty five fantasy points against them, and it looks

84
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: like he's gonna be healthy. I think the reason you

85
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: didn't play much last week was because of what that bumble.

86
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: Look for him to come in what is a meaningless

87
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: game now for the Lions. Stephen Jackson is a sick

88
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: no more frustrating guy in fantasy this year. Fabsy had

89
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: all the potential the world, but he got hurt early.

90
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: He never really bounced back. He didn't and Jackson was

91
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: decent down the stretch, but overall, you're completely right. He

92
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 1: was a disappointment and this is not a good matchup

93
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,600
Speaker 1: against Carolina. They've given up the second fewest fantasy points

94
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: to running backs this season. Back in Week nine against Carolina,

95
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,679
Speaker 1: Jackson only had seven point six fantasy points. Tough matchup

96
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: Carolina again, they're playing for something too. He was the

97
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: second round pick this year. Where does he falter next year.

98
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say third, fourth round, somewhere in that area.

99
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: He's still gonna be a borderline too in most fantasy leagues,

100
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: but he's gonna be thirty one. Also moving on to

101
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: the wide receivers. Now some likes and dislikes from Michael Fabriano.

102
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 1: He says, yes on Alshon Jeffrey, start to Sean Jackson

103
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: and Julian Edelman. You're sleeper car Darryl Patterson against the lines.

104
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: He's been terrific over the last few weeks. And fats

105
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: Alshon Jeffrey. I know people are nervous a little bit

106
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: playing Green Bay, but there's no reason to not play

107
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: Alshan Jeffrey. This is a week if you're in your championship,

108
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: where you stick with your studs and you play the

109
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: guys who are on teams that have something to play for.

110
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: Alshean Jeffrey is one of those players. The Packers have

111
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: given up the fourth most fantasy points the wide receivers

112
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 1: in the last four weeks. Hey, this is probably a

113
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: no brainer, but we're in week seventeen. Here you're going

114
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: with your superstars and the guys who are playing on

115
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: teams with something to play for. We thought Tory Smith

116
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: was going to be a superstar this year in fantasy.

117
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 1: He's been good, but not quite the breakout guy. Yeah,

118
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: you say, said him against Cincinnati thousand yards season, but

119
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: he's only scored four touchdowns. The Bengals have allowed the

120
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: ten fewest fantasy points of wide receivers this season, and

121
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: Tory has no touchdowns in two career road games in

122
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and fewer than sixty yards in four straight games

123
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: overall against the Queen City kiddies. Let's look at the

124
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: tight ends now, Michael Fabiano says, some players to start. Look,

125
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: this is when this is when he gets really tough.

126
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: Not only Week seventeen, a week seventeen tight ends. This

127
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: is pretty difficult. And yeah, the kickers that died in

128
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: the defenses, they're all tough. You've got to go Vernon

129
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: Davis's he gave you nothing last week. He gave you

130
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: a big, bad zero. If you were in your Week

131
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 1: sixteen championship, I'm saying, playing this week against Arizona, Charles Clay,

132
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: Delaney Walker my sleeper in rupports, although you have to

133
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: keep tabs on his status this week against the Bears. Right,

134
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: take a look at the defenses now, Michael Fabiano says,

135
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 1: start the Dolphins against the Jets. Start the Steelers again.

136
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: No John there right, no no shot. Sorry, anybody against

137
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: the jail time they play, and I believe they had

138
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: seventeen fantasy boards. Chiefs are sick. Buccaneers are to sit

139
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: Chiefs at San Diego. This is not one of those

140
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: must sits. Why do you have them as a definite set?

141
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: Because Andy Reid may not play his starters, and if

142
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: he's not playing the starters on the offensive side of

143
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: the ball, he's not playing the starters on the defensive

144
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: side of the ball. The game means nothing to the Chiefs.

145
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: The Chargers could have a lot writing on this game.

146
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: That's why I don't like the Chiefs defense. Right. There

147
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: you go, Michael Fabiano's big starts and sits four weeks seventeen. Tonight,

148
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: I'll get you caught up on all the latest headlines

149
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: for Thursday. How so, thank you kindly, Molly Carem here

00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: can do that, all right, guys. Another big announcement from

155
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy. He says he expects Eddie Lacy to start

156
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: Sunday as well. Really encouraging news for the Packers, regardless

157
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: of who's under center. Not encouraging for the Bears. Run

158
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: Defan has yeah, that the run defense hasn't been able

159
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: to stop anybody. Now you have Aaron Rodgers there. I

160
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: don't expect the Packers to even throw the ball much.

161
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: It's gonna be any Lacey a lot of him. So

162
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: if you're still playing in week seventeen, you got to

163
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: start this guy. Yeah, especially to you know that this

164
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: offense is going to want to pound the ball, like

165
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: Adam is talking about, just to aid to give him

166
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers an extra game here to to rest, so

167
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: to speak, without having to get into the mix. Of course,

168
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: it's going to be incumbent on Eddie Lacey being able

169
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: to the pass worte when they need to throw the ball.

170
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: But this is gonna be a great game for Lazy Yeah,

171
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: James Stark should probably have a decent game as well.

172
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett says Tony Romo status remains

173
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: unchanged today. Garrett says the team will continue to evaluate Romo,

174
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: so should fantasy owners move forward assuming Orton we'll get

175
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: the start in Dallas. Oar well, I say so. I

176
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: mean this is a little trick. I mean, Tony Roman

177
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: could come back and go out there and play, but

178
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: I mean, with that type of injury is so sensitive,

179
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: I would just try to avoid Tony Romo altogether, just

180
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: because you never know one hit away from being a disaster.

181
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: But in the beginning of the week, it seemed like

182
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: they were just kind of trying to fool the Eagles

183
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: into thinking that Tony Romo might play. But now as

184
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: we get closer, it's starting to seem like more of

185
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: a reality it might actually happen. Chief said coach Andy

186
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: Reid says he will mix and match starters just like

187
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: I do outfits and bench players. In the Chiefs Week

188
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: seventeen game against the Chargers, the Kansas City starts. Randy

189
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: Covis points out that regularly rested starters the last week

190
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: of the season, while in Philadelphia. So, guys, is Nile

191
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: Davis a good pick up this week? Certainly if you're

192
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: still playing in your fantasy leagues, go out and pick

193
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: up Nile Davis. And you know that the report directorate

194
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,839
Speaker 1: though the last couple of times that the Eagles have

195
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: been in this position to rest starters when Andy Reid

196
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: was the coach, obviously he's done it, even is is

197
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: uh in two thousand and ten was the last time

198
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: that that happened, and he rested everybody. So I expect

199
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: the Chiefs to do the same thing here. Well, I

200
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: do know that the charges are still you know, they're

201
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: they're fighting. So I know that defensive line, that that

202
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: front seven, they're very good upfront. So I say no

203
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,719
Speaker 1: Onnell Davis. Nel Davis did have a rush TD in

204
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: two of the last three, but off bar is not

205
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 1: approving there. Good stuff, gentlemen, Thank you. Still to come.

206
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: We're revealing the win are of two more end of

207
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: the year Fantasy awards. Who will win our Fantasy Sophomore

208

Speaker 1: of the Year in NFL Fantasy Lives prize for the

209
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: best single game performance post the year. But first playoffs. Yeah,

210
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: we're talking about playoffs and which players can net you

211
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: a trip to Super Bowl forty nine and our NFL

212
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: dot Com Playoff challengeing NFL Fantasy Live back in a minute,

213
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna off the goal. Thus William the four side.

214
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: Time Now for who's got the better line of presented

215
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: by head and shoulders. We've reached week seventeen. Many fantasy

216
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: leagues of crown their champion, But fantasy doesn't end. NFL

217
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: dot COM's Playoff Challenge game will satisfy your fantasy hitch

218
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: during the postseason. So FABS tell us how it works. Well,

219
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: you want to pick players that are playing in the postseason.

220
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: You accumulate points based on what they do. But the

221
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: big strategy here is the multipliers. As long as a

222
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: player that you pick continue used to go through the playoffs,

223
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: as his team wins, you get double, triple and quadruple

224
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: points if they make it to the Super Bowl. So

225
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: you want to pick the teams you think are gonna

226
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 1: make it further because a six point touchdown in the

227
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: Super Bowl is worth twenty four points. So let's take

228
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: a look at the current a f C playoff seatings

229
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 1: as they stand right now. The Denver Broncos that z

230
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 1: next to them, Hey, they clinched that first round by

231
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: could be the New England Patriots. Bengals are playing for

232
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: it as well. Obviously people are gonna default to the Broncos.

233
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: But FABS, give me a surprise team here, maybe through

234
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: the a f C. A surprise team. How about the Colts.

235
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: The Colts have beaten a lot of good teams this year.

236
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: They're beating the Seahawks, They're beating the Broncos, So watch

237
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: out for Indianapolis. I take a look at how things

238
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: shake out right now in the NFC excess next to

239
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,719
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks and surprisingly the Carolina Pantheon sy some

240
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: teams in the hunt. Here, a bar, give me a

241
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: surprise team that could make a big run through the

242
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: NFC for you. Well, you know the Philadelphia Eagles. I

243
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: think they're Brian Kennet, the way they're scoring with Nick Foles,

244
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: Shady McCoy. I think this team could make you know,

245
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: a good push. All right, So let's take a look

246
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,719
Speaker 1: at FABS and ock bars potential challenge playoff challenge line

247
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: up as it stands right now. Again, you're picking the

248
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: players you think are gonna make it. The furthest in

249
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: the postseason, looking at FABS his lineup. It's obvious he

250
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: thinks the Seattle Seahawks are gonna go to the Super Bowl,

251
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: and Akbar is defaulting towards the Denver Broncos making it

252
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. But here's the thing, Fad. You

253
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: see some names here, teams that might not be playing

254
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: in the first round, but you still want to start him,

255
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: right That's part of the strategy. If you start players

256
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: who aren't playing in wild Card weekend, you'll get double

257
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: points in the second round of the post season. It's

258
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: all part of the strategy. You can play against us,

259
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: you can play against your friends. It's fun. It's easy

260
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: at NFL dot Com, and we're gonna explain why I

261
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: think certain players have advantages. Right now, FABS, you have

262
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: Frank Gore in your line of as one of your

263
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: running backs. It doesn't make sense to go with Marshawn

264
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: Lynch and Robert Turbin at running back. So I'm going

265
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 1: with the Niners in Frank Gore. He has been very

266
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: productive in the postseason in the past, and I think

267
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: the Niners are the one team outside of Carolina who

268
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: could surprise Seattle. Are you like Shane Vereen to maybe

269
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: make a nice little run here for you. Well, Mike, Mike,

270
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: you talked about it, the multiplier, that's the that's the

271
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,839
Speaker 1: factor right now when you're talking about trying to get

272
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: fantasy points. And for Shane Verreen, the way he's been producing, yeah,

273
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna be in that divisional round. And when you

274
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: talk about the way they're gonna utilize him with no

275
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski, they have to find somebody else to throw

276
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: some of those short routes to, it's gonna be Shane

277
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: Verreen right now leading the team in reception in the

278
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: last six weeks and also, excuse me, leading the team

279
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 1: as far as amongst running backs, and amongst running backs

280
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: he's also got the most amount of receptions as well.

281
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 1: So this team, this guy could really get you a

282
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: bunch of points. I'm gonna default towards Frank Gore here

283
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: simply because you talked about how good he's been in

284
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: the past. He's a number one running back there. Shane

285
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: Veren's kind of hit and miss. You could get great

286
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: production from him, but if it's a game where he's

287
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 1: one catch for three yards, those nine yards or twelve

288
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: yards are gonna do any good? Un Likely is that

289
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: without Rob Gun Council. We've seen that the last couple

290
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: of weeks. To go look at his numbers in a

291
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: week sixteen, you know taking team is going to want

292
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,839
Speaker 1: to make that Butcher get into that championship round. They're

293
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: gonna use Vareene. All right, let's move on to the

294
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: wide receiver position now, and Akbar, you have Dwayne Bow

295
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 1: as someone you're gonna try to play all the way

296
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 1: through well, you know, Dwyane Bow with Alex Smith, I

297
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 1: think that you know, when you look at the way

298
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: Alex Smith has been producing. You know, we saw a

299
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: couple of stretch here, two back to back games with

300
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: Dwayne Pole where he put up really decent fantasy point numbers,

301
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,079
Speaker 1: and I think they're gonna get past through the Indianapolis

302
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: Coast and then once they get past the Innnapolis Colts,

303
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden depict depending on how those

304
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: matchups are, you can see Dwayne Pole going out there

305
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: and scoring some big numbers. I think he's gonna go

306
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: over Bonte Davis. I think he's gonna make big numbers.

307
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: If he can get twenty points, you roll that over

308
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: into the next week. Maybe they don't win, but he

309
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: could get enough points where you go, he's a worthy

310
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: pick from the a f C. The facts, you're like

311
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: dun Ball when not because of the numbers he's gonna

312
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: put up. But if he moves on and suddenly those

313
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: quadruple nubbles will be pretty big. The definition of a

314
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: sleeper in the NFL playoff challenge a guy who didn't

315
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: put up big numbers. He did lead the Seattle Seahawks

316
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: wide receivers and fantasy points, but if he goes four rounds,

317
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna start him in the wild card round

318
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: even though Seattle is not playing, I can get potentially

319
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: quadruple fantasy points from Doug Baldwin and quadruple points from

320
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: a wide receiver. It's probably gonna beat up most of

321
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: the elite rest yevers in the postseason. Again, I'm going

322
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: all in on the Seahawks. I think the fact that

323
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: they lost to the Cardinals was sort of an eye

324
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: opening experience. They're not gonna let that happen again in

325
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: the postseason. Yeah, I'm gonna go with FABS again here,

326
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: just because I'm not convinced the Chiefs are gonna go

327
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: on the road and put together a string of a

328
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: couple of games needed to win. You look at some

329
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: stinkers they put up, like last week, and sometimes they

330
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 1: look dominant, sometimes they look like they're gonna lose this game.

331
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: Rank passing offense in the in the league. Right now,

332
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: you're still gonna go. I'm still gonna go because I

333
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: believe in the Seahawks making it further than I do

334
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, and that they don't often throw

335
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: the football, but when the Seahawks do, they throw it

336
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: to Doug Ball. But let's look at the quarterbacks here,

337
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: this one very close, FABS. You have Russell Wilson as

338
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: your playoff quarterback, and Russell burned me in Week sixteen

339
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: and one of my finals, I lost by three points.

340
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: But I'm not bitter or anything like that at all.

341
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: He will come back with a vengeance and play extremely well.

342
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 1: Most of the time. He plays very well in the

343
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: Great Northwest. And again, the Seahawks, in my opinion, are

344
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: going to the Super Bowl, so why not take their quarterback.

345
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: I don't get any points from him in the first

346
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 1: week of the playoffs, but I'll get double in the

347
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: second tripping when they go to the NFC Championship and

348
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: quadruple when the Seahawks are playing in the snow in

349
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: New Jersey. Bar if you're like the Denver Broncos, and

350
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: makes sense that you have Peyton Manning is your playoff

351
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: challenge quarterback? Yes, and I trust Peyton Manning and I

352
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: know the same information in the same anecdote, and all

353
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: the stuff about the statistics about him has been regurgistated

354
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: over and over again. I say that Peyton Manning's going

355
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: to break all of that nonsen that people talk about

356
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: about him playing in the big game. When you look

357
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 1: at Peyton Manning, he has been on point. He's made

358
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: a historical run this year. I say that he's gonna

359
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: be able to take these guys all the way. And

360
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: you're you are going to look at the triple quadruple

361
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: points for Peyton Manning. He's gonna be the better quarterback

362
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: in this situation. I'm going this time. I'm going with you, Okay,

363
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 1: with Payton. Just because Peyton is a better quarterback. I

364
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: think he's gonna put up more fantasy points of Russell Wilson.

365
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: Don't have to win the Super Bowl, just gotta get there.

366
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: Pay It is a very good play. There's no question

367
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: about that. So I agree with Akbar as well, but

368
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: I went Russell Wilson because I just think the NFC

369
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: is gonna be a little easier road than the FC.

370
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: When Peyton's got to play Tom Brady, yeah, he's still

371
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 1: gonna win. That's gonna be a tough one. Let's take

372
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: a look at the board again. See who my picks

373
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: our favorite? It looks pretty close between here. Really, it's

374
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: about do you believe more that the Broncos are gonna

375
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: make it or the Seahawks are gonna make it. I

376
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: believe a little bit more than the Seahawks. But it's

377
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,719
Speaker 1: hards me to adore Peyton into Marius Thomas's tighter. I mean,

378
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: you just hate though. Matt Prayer Matt praytor seventy four

379
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: for seventy four so far this at this point in

380
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: the season, for extra point, he's getting ready to set

381
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: a record that's a single season or something like the unbelievable.

382
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 1: All right, So you're upset that I didn't pick your kicker? Now, yes, really,

383
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 1: you're just angry at me for some reason. I am

384
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,399

Speaker 1: sense of all the major storylines heading into teen. Let's

407
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: go Madison from Stratford, Connecticut. What's your question? Jason? Thanks

408
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: so much for taking your call. This is Madison, longtime listener,

409
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: first time caller. Wait, are you really from Connecticut? Yeah? Okay?

410
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: Who's the tight end for the Dallas Cowboys? Jason Witt?

411
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: Who's the quarterback of the Panthers? Cam new In? Okay,

412
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: you are from Connecticut? Gout. I've been thinking about the

413
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: first round of next year's draft. If I have the

414
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: number one pick, who should I take first overall in

415
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: the next fantasy season? Well, and lucky you asked this,

416
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: because we'll take a look right now at the top

417
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: ten players on championship teams for this year. Jamal Charles

418
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: was owned by the most number of people, over twenty

419
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: nine percent of people who won championships had Jamal Charles.

420
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning is very popular, so is Zach Stacy, Nick

421
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 1: Foles over of teams. But I'm gonna give you a

422
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: couple of running backs that I look at. Matt Forte

423
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: is someone who you've seen what he's done in this

424
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,880
Speaker 1: first year. Mark Tressman's offense, all the responsibility really coming

425
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 1: on another year of being more comfortable and being the

426
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: number one guy to go to on the ground and

427
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 1: in the air. Forte is a guy that you could

428
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: look at, taking number one overall, look two nine fantasy points,

429
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: third most among running backs. He's on the way up,

430
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 1: still in his prime years. Another guy kind of like

431
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 1: is Lashawn McCoy. Kind of the same boat. There is

432
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: Matt Forte in Philadelphia there, caller, Yeah, Jason, I really

433
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: like him to leading the NFL and rushing yards second

434
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: most fantasy points among running backs this season, also leading

435
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: the NFL with over two thousand scrimmage yards and plays

436
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: on the second highest scoring offense. So Madison really likes

437
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: McCoy too. All right, now, I like how you went

438
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 1: third person there. I really appreciate that, Madison. Thanks love

439
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: for the call. Uh, Trucker Bob from Orange County. You're

440
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: on the air with Jason. How are you, Trucker Bob?

441
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: I'm good, Hey, Jason, how are you doing good? What

442
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: are you hauling? Hey? Man? Look, I'm a big fan

443
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 1: of the show now, and that's by the way, I'm

444
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: hauling real big lard. There's big pounds and pounds of lard.

445
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: I love Laura lard. Good for your health. Hey look here,

446
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: I'm wait hunk your horn for me. Come on your trucker,

447
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 1: hunk your horn. Can't can't hear it? No not gonnahit

448
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: it okay, No worries. Hey, look, look, my question is

449
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: I felt like no matter who I took in the

450
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: first round, it wouldn't make a difference. But I took

451
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 1: ray Rice in the first round and he didn't do

452
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: much for me. Could a championship really be wonner laws

453
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: in the first round? Yes? And actually can. Let's take

454
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 1: a look right now, because you can lose your draft

455
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: in the first round depending on where you pick. Pick

456
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: number one. People who picked first one just over seven

457
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,120
Speaker 1: percent of the time. Pick number four is the worst.

458
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: You're winning just over seven percent of the time as well.

459
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: You want to pick seven, eight, nine, ten. You know

460
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: why these are great players to go is because this

461
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: is where you're gonna still get a stud, but you're

462
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: gonna come back a little bit earlier in the second

463
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 1: round because you're draft snakes and you're gonna get a

464
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: better player. They're picking at thirteen, four, fifteen than the

465
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,959
Speaker 1: guy picking number one coming all the way back at

466
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: twenty one. So make sure you get a stud in

467
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: that first round. But where you pick as a pretty

468
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: big deal. And don't take ray Rice. Let's go to

469
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: our next caller is uh Vinny from statn Island. Vinny,

470
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: how you doing hey? First time? Long time? What's going on? Jason? Good? Good?

471
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 1: How's things going over there in New York? Hey? Man,

472
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: I'm doing good. I'm getting ready for my Yankees. They're

473
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: gonna have a World Series this season. Anyways, man, I

474
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: gotta talk to you about Peyton man now. He's in

475
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 1: my keeper league. He's been great for me this year.

476
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: But I got Nick Foles now, and and I don't

477
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: know what I should do. Should Should I keep Peyton Manning? Oh? Yo?

478
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: Should I should? Maybe keep Nick Foles this year? All right?

479
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: But let me let me tell you this, Peyton Manny,

480
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: if you're talking about a keeper for next season, Nick

481
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 1: Foles is young, He's got a lot of football left.

482
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: He's in a great offense. I love Peyton Manning, but

483
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,479
Speaker 1: Peyton man has get closing on forty years old. How

484
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,360
Speaker 1: many more years does he have left? And bottom line

485
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: is Nick Foles has been every bit as good as

486
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: Peyton manning over the last eight nine weeks. He's young,

487
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: He's got another year as the full time starter for

488
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 1: this team. Absolutely, Nick Foles is the guy, Vinn. He

489
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: appreciate the call, and good luck with you Yankees. Next

490
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: you tell me fool over Peyton. Now, if Foles doesn't

491
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: have a good year, you're gonna be wearing cements shoes. Brother. Really, Oh,

492
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: thanks a lot. You have threatened the guy in the

493
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 1: radio like that's never happened before. All Right, we gotta

494
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: knowther caller here, MC franklin. You're on the air with

495
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: mc franklin. You're on the air. What's your question? Issue

496
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: number one? Trent Richards and c J. Spiller were the

497
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 1: wrong picks in the first round this year? Should they

498
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: be continued to be trusted as first round picks going forward? Well,

499
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you about both of these guys. Think

500
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: c J. Spiller is not to be trusted. You cannot

501
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: put anybody from the Buffalo Mill's back build into your

502
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: fantasy roster. This guy is nothing more than a flex spot.

503
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: This and then you want to talk about Trent richardson

504
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 1: curtain jerk or special guys who have ruined vanity seasons

505
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: year after year. If you're looking Downald Brown, he was

506
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: a much better draft pick this season. Trent Richardson not

507
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: so good. So I will say you good bye. Okay,

508
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: he called me prus, he called me right, okay, yeah, alright,

509
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 1: very good. Alright, so we asked an answer. Here we go.

510
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 1: Here's your draft breakdown first round, speaking of how things

511
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: should go and who's gonna fall out. Yes, Ray Rice

512
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,959
Speaker 1: will fall out next year, Doug Martin will fall out

513
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: next year, and see j Spiller will fall out, and

514
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 1: so will Trent Richardson. I'm gonna see some other names

515
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 1: jumping in here in the first round. Potentially potentially Doug

516
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: Martin moots like to fall far into the second round,

517
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: but you'll see some names replacing at least those four.

518
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 1: We have time for one more caller, and it is

519
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: really really bamby. Alright, you're on NFL Fantasy Live Radio.

520
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 1: What's your question? Hi, Hi Jason, Thanks so much, long

521
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: time listener, first time caller. I was wondering who will

522
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: be the biggest disappointment. All right, Wait, first of all, baby,

523
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 1: I didn't my wallet at the club, did I? Oh? No? Okay,

524
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: all right, okay, good, you want to get an intern

525
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: to go get that just yeah, it's just down the street, right, Okay,

526
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,239
Speaker 1: go ahead. Uh. You know my big disappointment for this year,

527
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 1: Bamby is gonna be Reggie Bush. He's someone that's gonna

528
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: jump up into the first round. People look at his

529
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: production this year, but I'm very nervous about him for

530
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: next season. He stayed healthy for the most part, but

531
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 1: he was still dinged up. But the bigger issue is

532
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 1: he put the football on the ground a lot. He

533
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 1: was sat down and when joy Bell came in, he

534
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: was terrific the lion. See they have a different, uh

535
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: alternative now running back. It's not just Reggie Bush. Joy

536
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: Bell is gonna cut right in there. I'm nervous about

537
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: Reggie Bush. People are gonna take him high. I'm not

538
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: saying don't draft him. I'm just saying take him later on.

539
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: Don't take him that early. He will wind up disappointing you.

540
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: All Right, That's about wraps up NFL Fantasy Live Radio

563
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 1: official fantasy football show of the National Football League, and

564
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: one of the big storylines for fantasy owners this year

565
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: guys is a major stars loss for the year due

566
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: to injury. Let's take a look at just a few

567
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,120
Speaker 1: of those names right now, and as you can see,

568
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: all these guys sideline listed with the injury and then

569
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 1: also their average draft position. So we're gonna get into

570
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 1: that in just a moment. Arian Foster, one of the

571
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 1: top five picks in most fantasy leagues, was shut down

572
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: earlier this season due to a back injury. For more

573
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: on that and what it means for Foster's future, we

574
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: checked in with our resident medical expert, Dr Neil Budadre

575
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: So fantasy viewers, Arian Foster. I know this is a

576
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: big question about longevity. He's had multiple injuries now in

577
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: multiple different parts of his body. What does this mean?

578
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: So here we're looking at the lower spine for Arian Foster.

579
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: Aryan Foster has something called her needed disc and you

580
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,159
Speaker 1: underwent a surgery called aposectomy, which is a removal of

581
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: the disc. Simulate what Aaron Foster has in terms of

582
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: the disk rupture. I will show you here a balloon

583
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 1: that's that be filled with the fiscus gel like fluid

584
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: and what he had is practically a rupture in the

585
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: balloon leading to gel squeezing out. And the problem with

586
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: this is when this squeezes out, it actually squeezes onto

587
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 1: the nerve. So the surgery that's actually done for Aryan

588
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: is they'll go in and actually remove the gel. But

589
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: when you remove the gel, you still have the slit

590
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: here and you hope that it kind of scars in.

591
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: The problem is one bad injury for Aryan, one bad injury,

592
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: and it's gonna happen again. You've got a hole there already,

593
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 1: so the problem becomes it's an easy way for the

594
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 1: jail to keep coming out. Now, in terms of Arian

595
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: Foster's durability as a doctor, I really have to be

596
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: concerned that he still has a hole in his disk

597
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: and whether it fills in or not with scar tissue,

598
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: it's still a weak spot in his disk. So next

599
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: time he actually gets an injury, it can really come

600
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 1: out and cause problem. So as a doctor I do

601
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: think that he should share to he's with another running back.

602
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: But don't be surprised owners if you see this happen

603
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 1: again next year. Oh Dr Neil, thank you so much.

604
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 1: That was quite the visual gentleman. And of course Arion

605
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,199
Speaker 1: had that surgery. Um no. And the thing that we

606
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: want to know here, his average draft position this year

607
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: was third overall. So given what we just heard from

608
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: Dr Neil Goodadro watch his value next season, where would

609
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: you draft him? Adam. When we were coming into this segment,

610
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 1: I was thinking somewhere around the second round, i'd feel

611
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,360
Speaker 1: a little bit safer. But after watching that now I'm

612
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 1: starting to think maybe he'll drop He'll drop down a

613
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: little bit, maybe he'll drop into the third or fourth round,

614
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: because he's gonna have to be a timeshare type running back,

615
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: not somebody that can go ahead and trust. When I

616
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: look at the way i'm gonna construct my draft board,

617
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be a first I'm not gonna give

618
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: him a first round grade. I'm gonna look at another

619
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 1: running back and then maybe if he fell towards the

620
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: end of the second round, because I would look for

621
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 1: a high end wide receiver at the beginning of the

622
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: second round. But maybe if you're at the end of

623
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: the second where you can flip around and get him,

624
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: get him in that spot, that's where I would feel safe.

625
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: But it's second round, but only at the very end

626
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: rush here, it's an of the three seasons prior, of course,

627
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: to this injury. Let's keep this conversation going some other

628
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,239
Speaker 1: injured stars in their draft value, and let's look at

629
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: r G three a little bit of a different situation.

630
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: He was shut down December eleven. More about maybe the

631
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: circumstances and that surgically repaired me. What do we do here?

632
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 1: I think he could end up being a very good

633
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: draft bargain next season, and he will be a quarterback

634
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: that I'll target because he's not gonna come off the

635
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: board until somewhere around the seventh or eighth round. Hey, listen,

636
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: he had some stinkers this year. He definitely did, but

637
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: he also had some pretty good fantasy games, even if

638
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 1: it wasn't real, real good in terms of reality, he

639
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: had some good fantasy production in certain games over twenty

640
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: fantasy points four or five different times on the season.

641
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 1: So if I'm the type of person to wait for

642
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 1: a quarterback, and I happen to be the type of

643
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: person who waits for a quarterback, Robert Griffin, the third

644
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: will be somebody that I am targeting. They'll have a

645
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: whole another off season and heal from the A C

646
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: l procedure. He should be back to I don't know

647
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: his coach is gonna be, but he should be healthy.

648
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: Seventeen most fantasy points of quarterbacks this season, Adam. Let's

649
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: get into Doug Martin. The books have showed a law

650
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: of the second half of the year, and it was

651
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: a shoulder injury, so not not as serious as promising,

652
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: not as serious, But I still look at Doug Martin

653
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: to be about a third round pick. Perhaps I liked

654
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: what the offense, the way it's evolving down there in

655
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. I like mcglennan, yes, that's more in Stapp's

656
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: nickname for him. I like what the young quarterback did.

657
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: Vincent Jackson's there. They've got a nice young tight end.

658
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 1: But not only was Doug Martin lost for the season,

659
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: but some other guys were able to emerge, guys like

660
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: Mike James and Bobby Rainey, which leads me to believe

661
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a running back by committee there. That's

662
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: how about Reggie Wayne, obviously a little older, thirty five

663
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: year old receiver coming off a torn a c L.

664
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: Is this a wait and see approach? I feel bad

665
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: about calling him old since some forty He's gonna be

666
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 1: thirty six football term in November next year, so I

667
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: don't know how quickly he's going to be able to

668
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 1: recover from an h c L. We talked about r

669
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: G three, we talk about Adrian Peterson younger players. Peterson

670
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: still in his twenties, r G three and his younger twenties.

671
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: I would see him as more of his sixth round

672
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: pick somewhere in that area, as a borderline number two

673
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: or three fantasy wide receiver. And remember the Colts, they

674
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 1: have some young white ups they're coming up, but that staff,

675
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: they're so impressive a career, a thousand plus yard receiving seasons. Okay,

676
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: moving on here, Julio Jones, Adam, what do you do

677
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: with this situation? I would put a fifth round grade

678
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: on Julio Jones. The way I'm gonna go about my

679
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 1: team is I'm gonna get running back, receiver, running back,

680
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: you know, and start filling out my roster. And Julio

681
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: Jones looks to be like a guy who could be

682
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: a good wide receiver to for you, somebody'd be willing

683
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: to take a chance on somebody like Jordy Nelson that

684
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: I came into this season, not expecting him to carry

685
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: my team, but does have the ability to do it

686
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: if he's given the chance. My biggest fear is that

687
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: his injury is going to be severe, as Dr Neil

688
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: said earlier this week, So I go fifth round. He

689
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: was placed on the I R October tenth with a

690
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: foot Moving on to Gronk. Here, Rob Gronkowski, Patriots tight

691
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: end fabs torn A c L and M c L

692
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: and week fourteen. One of the best tight ends, but

693
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: always hurt. I'm gonna say fifth round for Gronkowski. You're right,

694
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: one of the best tight ends in Fantasy foot ball,

695
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 1: second behind Jimmy Graham or no worse than third behind

696
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 1: Graham and who and Julius Thomas. But those injuries and

697
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: the surgeries apt has anybody in the country had more

698
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 1: surgeries you could Gronkowski in the NFL over the last

699
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 1: year and a half. So it's risk reward, no doubt

700
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: about it. But once you get into that fifth round area,

701
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like that scratch man, you just have

702
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 1: to itch it. No. It was incredible. We were trying

703
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: to put together aboard. They wouldn't fit all on one screen,

704
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 1: all the surgeries, all the injury, so we shall see

705
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: their good stuff. Guys. Still, the comb Fantasy bouncer Adam

00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,880

Speaker 1: your quarterback is. I do know what happened? His name happen?

00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,320

732
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: not see what. I have a hundred seven two targets

733
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: this year. I appreciate it. We'll see in the re draft.

734
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: All Right, see you next year. Alright, good Senor how

735
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: about you? What's up? What's up? Brandon Marshall? Okay, I've

736
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 1: never looked this good. No, it looks pretty, look pretty slick. Listen.

737
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: I know Alshan Jeffrey's emerging. I can't it, but I'm

738
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: one of the few receivers capable of dominating a game.

739
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: I'm still the focal point of this offense. Listen to this. Okay,

740
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,280
Speaker 1: last three seasons, I'm the only player in the NFL

741
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: with eight plus receptions twelve hundred plus receiving yards in

742
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,479
Speaker 1: six plus t d s. Yeah, you're looking you're looking

743
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 1: pretty good. I know when Jay Cutler is in there too.

744
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit worried about that because it could

745
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: be Cutler. They could go another direction. But who my

746
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 1: quarterback is? All right, Well, listen here, Brandon Marshall, you're

747
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 1: a keeper. We're gonna keep you around. You know what.

748
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, your buddy Alshan Jeffrey, both

749
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 1: of you keepers, welcome to the club. Appreciate thank you

750
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: for the keepers club. Let's take a look at some

751
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 1: keepers and people to not keep for two thousand fourteen

752
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,720
Speaker 1: from the wide receiver position. As I said, Brandon Marshall,

753
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: Alshan Jeffrey both safe to keep. Jordy Nelson came on

754
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: at the end of the year. His production fell just

755
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 1: a little bit, but that has more to do with

756
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers being out and some guys not to keep.

757
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: Eric Decker put him back into the draftful Victor Cruz.

758
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: Julio Jones has some injury concerns, so go ahead, now

759
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: let's go. Dude, Tom Brady, Hi, what's going on? I'm

760
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: Tom Brady because I know who you are. What are

Speaker 1: my table in the back when the whole guy from

763
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 1: San Diego State, Oh my gosh, that guys fired. Listen, bro,

772
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: Matthews here? Oh hey, how's about the middle of a

773
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: breakout season? And San Diego Chargers. That Michael Fabiana from

774
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: NFL fantast like put a lot of pressure on me

775
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 1: over the last three years. I couldn't meet up with

776
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: the pressure. This year, you didn't talk about me at all.

777
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: No pressure, man. I went under the radar. I'm scoring

778
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 1: fantasy points like they're going out of style. I'm like

779
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: La Damian Tomlinson Junior. I don't know if I'd go

780
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: that far, but are you planning on moving? I'm gonna

781
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 1: stand in San Diego? I like one boy. I like

782
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: where I am. Yeah, okay, listen, give me your hand.

783
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: I'm in. You're in. You're a good You're a good

784
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: one to h to keep an eye on. There's not

785
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 1: a lot of number one running backs out there that

786
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: you can count on. I think you're I think it

787
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: would be pretty good. I'm gonna go hang out with it.

788
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: Go hang on. Yeah, please do a What are you

789
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,919
Speaker 1: doing here? I've been here since week four? Man? Have

790
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,800
Speaker 1: you that's an old stand. No. No No, that's why I

791
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 1: get out of here. Thank you. Can we get somebody?

792
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 1: Get him out of here, Get him out of here.

793
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: Let's look at some running backs to keep and to

794
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: put back into the draft pool. It's gonna be tough

795
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: with running backs because there are so few guys who

796
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: are number one running backs who are not in the committee.

797
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,359
Speaker 1: But Ryan Matthews feel pretty good about Ray Ry. Might

798
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 1: be a surprise to you, but I feel he's been

799
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: battling injuries and now Dennis pitt will be back into

800
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 1: the offense, He'll be pretty good. Levyan Bell will be

801
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: the number one back there in Pittsburgh. Some guys, I'm

802
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,320
Speaker 1: not so hyper on Arian Foster, C. J. Spiller, Galalpal

803
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: get out of here and Trent Richards and I will

00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: Fantasy performance has voted on by our staff here at

820
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: NFL Network and NFL dot Com. The nominees on Peyton

821
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 1: Manning week one against Baltimore, Nick Foles Week nine against

822
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 1: the Raiders, Jamal Charles Week fifteen against the Raiders. It's

823
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 1: not as simple as who had the most points. You

824
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 1: had to take a lot of things into account. Peyton

825
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: Manning did a week one when everybody was playing him,

826
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 1: Nick Foles came out of nowhere to really give you

827
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: a win, and of course Jamal Charles doing it in

828
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: the postseason. So you guys have a we want to

829
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: guess is going to be the winner here? Like the

830
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles one's near and dear to my heart. Well,

831
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,879
Speaker 1: you know what, the fact that Jamal Charles he has

832
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: the most amount of points in that one, but that

833
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 1: Nick Foles performance was pretty impressive. I wouldn't be surprised

834
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 1: if this pick ends up being nick Foles going out

835
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: all right again, it's sealed very well and the winner

836
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 1: is oh, Jamal Charles was sixty five percent of the vote.

837
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: We're going next level. Now they're actually being typed and

838
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: not they flipped back and forth between typing it out

839
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: and writing it with a marker. Is Jamal Charles number

840
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: and pick in Fantasy next year? fIF no doubt about that.

841
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: And this is just been a phenomenal season. He's already

842
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: scored over three hundred Fantasy points. And when a running

843
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: back reaches that level, and that's a milestone. That's like

844
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,760
Speaker 1: hitting rushing yards fifteen touchdowns. Jamal has been a beast

845
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 1: this season, you know. And I'll add to that. When

846
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 1: we talked about Jamal Charles being a number one pig,

847
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: I would like to have him as a one beat.

848
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 1: I think you could have Agent Peterson is a one

849
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: a in Jamal Charles as a one being. What I

850
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 1: mean by that is you don't have to be married

851
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: just to one guy as the number one guy. You

852
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 1: could alternate, so either one you could pick up the

853
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 1: number one spot. All right, So the last couple of years,

854
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: we saw Doug Martin put up fifty one points against

855
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Last year, Jamal Charles put up fifty one

856
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: points against the Raiders. This year, Nick Foles through for

857
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns. I know you want to say, whoever's playing

858
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: the Raiders could be the next guy to get fifty point,

859
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: But give me a guy who do you think right

860
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,879
Speaker 1: as the most capability of being a fifty point guy

861
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 1: With Shawn McCoy. If you look at some of the

862
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: games this season, he had a couple of opportunities that

863
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: seemed like where he could have gone out and scored

864
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,800
Speaker 1: close to fifty points. But with the way the Eagles

865
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 1: offense is constructed, you know, it didn't work out quite

866
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 1: that way. But one of the most consistent running backs

867
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 1: and fantasy football, and of course Chip Kelly found a

868
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 1: way to use him, whereas Andy Reid did not. It's

869
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: funny because Andy Reid did not yank Jamal Charles the

870
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 1: way that he volleyball Lashawn McCoy back when he was

871
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: coaching the Eagles. Yeah, so it's nice for both guys.

872
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,479
Speaker 1: I think it's worth that's Peyton Manning, you know why

873
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: he plays the rators twice Petty man I'm going with

874
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: a quarterback, and it's funny because we haven't seen the

875
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: quarterbacks putting up the big numbers and spend the running

876
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 1: backs who've gone over fifty Martin and now Jamal Charles.

877
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: But I'm going Peyton. You know, I'm gonna go to

878
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,359
Speaker 1: the other position. I'm gonna go wide receiver and I'm

879
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: gonna go, say Calvin Johnson. Calvin Johnson could likely be

880
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: that with Matthew Stafford in that offense, they could put

881
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: up some big numbers and he could catch a defensive

882
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: back slip slip in one game, and go for fifty

883
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: just like that. Well he had what three plus in

884
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 1: one game or something. You can do it as gotta

885
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: stop getting tackled inside the five, which is what happens

886
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: to Calvin Johnson. Now the Fantasy Sophomore of the Year.

887
00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: This is a fan vote. You guys voted for who

888
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 1: was going to be the best second year player, and

889
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 1: the nominees were Andrew Luck, Josh Gordon, and Russell Wilson.

890
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,399
Speaker 1: Guys have all played very well this year. Fabs. Who's

891
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: your inside pick here? You think it's gonna win, It's

892
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 1: gotta be Josh Gordon. The guy missed the first two

893
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 1: games due to a suspension, and now he's tied with

894
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson for the most Fantasy points among wide receivers.

895
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: That's value right there. Wow, leave the local. Let's say

896
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 1: you're looking open it up here. I don't have a

897
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 1: sneaky suspicion for this one, you know, is Josh Gordon

898
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: with seventy four percent of the vote. It's kind of

899
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:33,759
Speaker 1: tough to go against Josh Gordon, right because I think

900
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,839
Speaker 1: think of what he's done with no matter who's playing quarterback. Yeah,

901
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: and a lot of people either picked him up off

902
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,240
Speaker 1: the waiver wire, drafted him really late in their fantasy drafts,

903
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 1: So as far as the value pick goes, hard to

904
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: argue there was anybody more value from later in the

905
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: draft or on the waiver wire than Josh Gordon. The

906
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 1: number two overall wide receiver gonna come off the board

907
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,240
Speaker 1: next year, most likely in the second round behind Calvin Johnson.

908
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 1: Book spend some time with with the other nominees here.

909
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,080
Speaker 1: You saw the two quarterbacks also nominated, Andrew Luck and

910
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Which quarterback would you rather have next season?

911
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: Fabs Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson, Andrew Luck, Reggie Wayne will

912
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: be back. Hopefully they're going to improve that offensive line

913
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,919
Speaker 1: in the off season through the draft. I'm going Luck.

914
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,879
Speaker 1: You know what I'm gonna go. Well, you know when

915
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: you talked about Andrew Luck, I think Andrew Luck is

916
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 1: so talented. I mean, we knew that when he was

917
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 1: coming out, and the fact that he can still He's

918
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: starting to make things happen even without his main go

919
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: to guys. You know, and he played with a new

920
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,840
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. You know, you're talking about guys like Alex

921
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 1: Smith who seemingly had this shift offensive coordinators each and

922
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 1: every season, Andrew Luck went through the same thing. Of

923
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,719
Speaker 1: course he had familiarity with with him, but you know,

924
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 1: still he's making a change. So now he's gonna have

925
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 1: a second year in the same offense. He's gonna have

926
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: a haven. He still had a good season. There was

927
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 1: time that we were sweating him and being like, oh,

928
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:46,839
Speaker 1: we don't know how to play this guy. He's still

929
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 1: finished fourth among quarterbacks for total points scored, So I

930
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: still probably have to highly consider them in that situation.

931
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 1: I do like Andrew Luck, but I think for me,

932
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: it's got to be Russell Wilson. When you think about

933
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and just his ability to make plays happen

934
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: with what I like to call tradition wide receivers. And

935
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 1: I know that some of the guys on the team

936
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 1: have called me out and say, oh, really, we're pedestrian

937
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: wide receivers. But really, these guys are not elite wide receivers.

938
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 1: And yet and still Russell Wilson still finds a way

939
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: to get these guys the ball. They make it. They

940
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: get them the ball so they can go out there

941
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: and make plays. He gets them in strides what we

942
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: like to call it. But he also is making plays

943
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: with the speech, getting out on the outside edge of

944
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 1: the corner. And if you can get a quarterback that

945
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,520
Speaker 1: can rush, that's a lot of fantasy point day. And

946
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: then we know he can call his number in the

947
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 1: in the red zone of Coniza, Sitney right called you

948
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,800
Speaker 1: and said that none of these guys call series. Okay,

949
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: I've got guys on the team. I've got guys on

950
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 1: the team who've told me some of the locker room

951
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 1: conversation that's like, look, I'm just being honest. Hell, I'm

952
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 1: going to tune in tomorrow for a special edition, a

953

Speaker 1: total access and see if any of them are going
