1
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: At least. He's The Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:12,039
Speaker 1: Williamson on Home of the Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

3
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Drive. I am Dale Lolly, he

4
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: is Matt Williamson, and well it's time for the Fantasy

5
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: Football Focus and on this Tuesday. So everybody's making their

6
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: waiver wire pickups this week and not nearly as sexy

7
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,919
Speaker 1: as it was last week. Man, No, there's not much

8
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,279
Speaker 1: to get real excited about. I mean, I guess we'll

9
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 1: go through it now, but I can't think of names.

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: I'm clamoring again. Yeah, most of these guys aren't available

11
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: in deeper leagues. I don't know. These must be some

12
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: really like eight team leagues or something. And some of

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: these guys are available. Darrell Henderson's owned and he's roster

14
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,959
Speaker 1: ESPN leagues though really that's nuts. I mean, I could

15
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: see Kiren Williams being in this list, I mean, because

16
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: I think he'll probably be the two, or even Malcolm Brown.

17
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 1: You know, those guys all get a bump and should be.

18
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: But anybody has been paying attentions. Yeah, same thing with

19
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson. He's rush fift of leagues. He's the number

20
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: one they're both starters. Yeah, and they're not come out

21
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 1: of nowhere guys. They're not what Tavis Murray. You know. Now,

22
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 1: this one is interesting. Dion Jackson's roster and ten percent

23
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: of leagues. Uh, you would think you would think that

24
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor's back this week, but he had a hundred

25
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: twenty one yards in a touchdown total yards last week

26
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 1: against Uh the Jaguars do concussion the year. Yeah, um,

27
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: but Deon Jackson showed that he you know, there's some

28
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: value there. I mean, I'm a big believer that if

29
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: there's a true handcuff, you know, if you know Jalen

30
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: warrens now that guy like if the number one goes down,

31
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: this guy clearly becomes the one, not a part time back,

32
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: then he should be in a really and I think

33
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: Jackson's at least that now, he's at least that I

34
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: picked him up being the guy I have Taylor in

35
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: our league, and when I saw Saturday that Taylor was

36
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: not going to play, they downgraded him out. I immediately

37
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: picked up Deon Jackson and started him this week twenty

38
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: nine points. You had more faith in him than I did.

39
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: I kind of looked at like he's I was just

40
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: Actually when I picked him up. Initially, I was just

41
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: a block my opponent who was who had that Damien

42
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: Harris and his other back was off last week, and

43
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,839
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna block him. He was out of back,

44
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: so I'm like, And he ended up picking up Philip

45
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 1: Lindsay and starting and I remember you saying you were

46
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: torn which one to pick up. I was torn which

47
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: one to pick up. I went with Deon Jackson and

48
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: having to start him right now, I'm gonna hold onto

49
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: him the rest of the year. The rest of the

50
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: year might be a strong statement, but I got Taylor. Yeah,

51
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 1: I guess. I mean, if he's the truth too, I

52
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: think he's at least in the conversation. If even if

53
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: hindes his back, he's gonna get ten touches. If if

54
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 1: Taylor's out, I mean, is he the same value that

55
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: was Madison? Probably not to that level were Pollard or

56
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: one of those true true handcuffs. But if you're a

57
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: tailor owner, you better own Deon Jackson. Yeah, I'm fine

58
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,399
Speaker 1: with that. So he should be in every league. Yeah, um,

59
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake is roster and two percent of leagues it's

60
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: the Drake. I mean Dobbins had again. Yeah, and Drake

61
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: had a good game. Drake head take carries alone. Let's

62
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: not get carried away with the Drake every week just

63
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 1: thinks Baltimore runs a ton I went there back, and

64
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 1: then everybody will hate to Drake again. Yeah. I don't

65
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: think I want any Baltimore guys right now. Yeah, I

66
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: have Dobbins to it. I can. You can't play him anymore, No,

67
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: I don't think you can. Uh, Tyle Tyler al Gierre,

68
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: we talked about him earlier in the week. He's owned

69
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: in twenty three percent of leagues. I kind of like

70
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: Huntley better. Yeah, he was probably owned in less leagues.

71
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: Then they run the ball like crazy. Oh what, Patterson's

72
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: probably back. Actually, Huntley's owned in thirty six. Yeah he's

73
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: got He's got my higher ownership. Okay, but that you know,

74
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: I think those two guys are both getting ten to

75
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: fifteen carries a game that running game can support both. Yeah,

76
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: I mean probably is flexes and everybody has a ton

77
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,119
Speaker 1: of good guys off this upcoming. And I think even

78
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: when Patterson comes back, they're gonna not gonna stop running

79
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: the ball, right, They're gonna that's what they do. Uh

80
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: khalil Herbert, he's owned the Yeah, he's definitely guy that

81
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: he fits. Even with Montgomery, he gets a lot of time. Yeah,

82
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 1: he's not he's not a true handcuff because a Montgomery

83
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: is not good enough to have a handcuff and beer.

84
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: Herbert gets ten carries every week. But if if Montgomery

85
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: goes down again, Herbert goes to twenty carries. He's a

86
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: borderline one. Yeah. Right, he's like the top fifteen type

87
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: of fantasy back. Yeah, he's a good player too. And

88
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: what do you do with Kareem Hunt? He's had two

89
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: games this year where he's even been startable. The rest

90
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: of it's been garbage. Could he get traded at the deadline?

91
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: If I were the Browns, I'd be I'd be taking

92
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: on I'd take all halls. Yeah, I mean I want

93
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: every want every draft pick I can get back. I know. Yeah,

94
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: I mean if you give them away for fifth or

95
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: six or whatever, give him back to Kansas City or

96
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: or somebody that's in the hunt. Yeah, I don't know.

97
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta hold him. You can't trade him,

98
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,239
Speaker 1: you can't dump him. But boys, he's a roster clogger.

99
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: All he does is clogged things up for Chubb. They

100
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: had a fifty fifty split and touch in snaps this

101
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: past week for whatever reason. First, for no apparent reason,

102
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: Hunts out there and running around not doing anything. Yeah yeah,

103
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 1: I mean you just hope something happens there. But owning

104
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: Hunt in fantasy sucks right now because you can't do anything.

105
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: And when you draft him, he said, I got a

106
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: standalone guy here. I can play, but you can't have

107
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 1: that value. But you're surprising, uh wide receiver to the

108
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: guys who are rostered pretty much but should be more so.

109
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers at George Pickens at fifty six. Yeah, yeah,

110
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: when they're borderline starters. Alec Pierce is roster Yeah, he's

111
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: flashing time and time again. Did they throw him down

112
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: the field? Pittman's underneath guy in the possession? Dude, I

113
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: would rather have Campbell or Pierce Pierce, I think so. Yeah.

114
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: So you have to trust Matt Ryan there a little bit.

115
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 1: I mean he probably had his best game of his

116
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: final year in the league. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't count.

117
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: He's not gonna get any better than that, and he's

118
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 1: still going to throw the ball off from his back.

119
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: A couple of times a game. Yea, um, but Pierces

120
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: a valuable dude. Uh one. Del Robinson his rostered in

121
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: one percent of leagues. I believe that is you. I

122
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: would grab him immediately. I mean he played like half

123
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: the snaps, was targeted like crazy. When he was play

124
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: fourteen snaps and got four targets, that's what I mean.

125
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: Like he gets open and they need somebody to get open.

126
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: Can he stay healthy? I don't don't get about that.

127
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: Thump him, let him clog by roster again, but I

128
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: would pick him up. Josh Reynolds is roster and of

129
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: the leagues, Mon Ross Brown's coming back, DeAndre Swifts come

130
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,919
Speaker 1: back back. Yeah, it's gonna get he. I think he

131
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 1: had his time and his son like I had him

132
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: on my roster because I have him on Ross at Brown, Yeah,

133
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: I cut him. Yeah. These other guys are gonna come back.

134
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 1: They're gonna get Jamison Williams back soon, and Josh Reynolds

135
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: is gonna have no value. And that's I would dash Williams.

136
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: I try to trade him. I tried to trade Josh

137
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: Reynolds right now. If you have him still in your roster,

138
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: I wouldn't give you anything well you might not be

139
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: side him. Look at look at he look at these

140
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: last two weeks he was he was really good. Um,

141
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: Alan Robinson, he's gonna be in leagues. I mean, I

142
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: guess he's gotten cut. There's a text on my you

143
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: just can't quit him. Well this was the best usage

144
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: was this past week? Do you trust it? My son

145
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: just texted me, would you do a rob for golf?

146
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell him, yes, he is. He is Robins.

147
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: Oh he has a quarterback. Yeah, absolutely, get him off

148
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: your roster. I can't believe in what we do that

149
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: I want to get in that league a bunch of teenagers. Well,

150
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: if you lose, they lock you a dog gage and

151
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: do funny things. But I wouldn't lose. Pretty probably wouldn't

152
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: peanut butter in your hair and cat food on your

153
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: head in the dog cage. That's not so good. Chase

154
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: Claypool is a guy that's on this list of guys

155
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: to stash. I think he's a guy to trade. I

156
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: think I would try to get rid of. In fact,

157
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 1: I got offered him this week for Tony Pollard. I'm like, no, no,

158
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: I mean Claypool is not bad. I mean he should be.

159
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: He's gonna have games like that, but it's not going

160
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: to be consistent because there's too many other mouths. Defeat

161
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: right and friar Mouth being out I think really helped him. Yeah,

162
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 1: how about Tae Kwon Thornton. I have interest. I'd probably

163
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: like to see one more week. I'd have to study

164
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: his usage a little bit. I bet he wasn't on

165
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 1: the field as much. It wasn't on the field very much.

166
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,319
Speaker 1: It's still not mac Jones. I want to see what

167
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: it looks like when Max Jones is out there, because

168
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: he is. I mean, I know they're high on Thornton

169
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 1: and he has elements that they don't have on offense

170
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: and drafted him in the second round. But he's gonna

171
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: I mean, at best, he's gonna be the Shawan Jackson.

172
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: The other part of the problem is there's a very

173
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 1: small pie there. They're not going to throw the ball

174
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: fifty times a Gayers and Henry I think are gonna

175
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: get targets every week. Henry's kind of moving up my

176
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: list a little bit. Yeah, okay, we're on the tight ends.

177
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill roster and fifty eight point seven percent of leagues.

178
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: I think you got to keep him in your it's

179
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: starting hims a different story. It's tough to play him. Yeah,

180
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 1: he should be in the league. They use them. Robert

181
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: Tonyan sent roster now that Cobb is out right right right? Um,

182
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: I bet he's the top fifteen tight end. Yeah, he's

183
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 1: gonna get targeted because Aaron Rodgers doesn't trust anybody else

184
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: at last week he got a bunch of targets. He

185
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: had ten catches last week. Um, yeah, he's had He's

186
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: a track record too. It's not like he just came

187
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: out of We got twelve targets in that game, tenant tenants,

188
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: all for ninety yards. In today's fantasy world, that's gold.

189
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: Eight targets is great for you know, a non Kelsey

190
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 1: Andrews type end. This the week after, I picked him

191
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: up with Pits on out and played him and he

192
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: got four targets, and then he probably and then I

193
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 1: cut him and he goes out and he gets he

194
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:22,959
Speaker 1: gets twelve targets. That's my tight end position. I did

195
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: get ten points out of Pits. So this week he

196
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: cut three passes for nineteen year, he got three targets.

197
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: Three targets for nineteen yards. Happened to get the ends. Brutal, brutal, brutal.

198
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: Daniel Bellinger rostered him one percent of leagues. He had

199
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 1: five targets, cut all five of them for thirty eight

200
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: yards last week and a touchdown. He's a dynasty guy.

201
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: I mean he's impressive young tight end for a fifth

202
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: round pick. Yeah, you know what I mean? Like, okay,

203
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 1: and to me, that's back to my Wonder Robinson thing,

204
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: Like somebody's gonna catch in the pecking order. I think

205
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 1: you can. You can get there guys to stash here.

206
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: No offense. He had seven targets last week. He caught

207
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: six passes for yards. I think he plays the snaps. Yeah,

208
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't trust it. Uh Mike GISICKI yeah, absolutely,

209
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 1: and one have another game like that the rest of

210
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: the year. You had a good point a couple of

211
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 1: segments ago. I mean, he probably has some red zone

212
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: value to them because their receivers are so small. But

213
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: he's not really even their starters. He's barely on the field.

214
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 1: Smith plays more than him. He's gonna be out this

215
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: past week, barely on the field. Uh. Juwe Johnson, he

216
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: got he got six targets, actually he caught four of

217
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: them for forty one yards. The top three receivers were

218
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: out exactly exactly. But that's this, I mean, I get it.

219
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: That's a tight end position. That's a tight end position. Quarterbacks.

220
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 1: I mean, it's still contest that if we had a

221
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 1: draft right now, I might take Kelsey first. Overall, it's

222
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: just such a different advantage than everybody else. And and

223
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: andrews uh quarterbacks to pick, but Tah is the pickup

224
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: of available sixty roster people may have gotten tired of

225
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: waiting on him. Dak Prescott's own is sixty one percent

226
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: of the leagues. That's an obvious one. Yeah, I can't

227
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: believe to his own in more leagues and dacs that's weird.

228
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan is roster in eleven percent of leagues. Shouldn't

229
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 1: even be that high. Like I'm starting golf over Ryan. Yeah,

230
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: almost everyone over Ryan Ryan. Yeah, he's just not good.

231
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo roster seven percent of leagues. I think I

232
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 1: take him over Ryan, but that's not saying much. You

233
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 1: don't throw much, he doesn't run much. Davis Mills roster

234
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: in point four percent of leagues, and that's h Yeah,

235
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: that's too high. It's better than Cooper Rush and Heineke.

236
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: But that's what we're shooting for for the Fantasy championship.

237
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: Stash him away, Marcus, Marcus Mariota. I don't think Mariota

238
00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: over right. Yeah, he doesn't throw of trust him to

239
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: stay healthy. But yeah, so far and you know, if

240
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 1: anything invested, didn't know if he gets hard caught him. Yeah,

241
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 1: Now he's the best one we've talked about in the

242
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 1: last three or four. You trust Jamis Winston if he

243
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: comes back in plays this week a little. He's just

244
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: better for fantasy. I want to know what's going on

245
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: with the receivers, right, and I'd like to see a

246
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: game from him. But he slings it. He does sling

247
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: it sometimes the other team, right, But I mean that's

248
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: also some some leagues have interception penalties, some don't. Let's

249
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: take a look at the streaming options this week for defenses.

250
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: For defenses, Yes, so the Thursday night game and we've

251
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: knows how those have played out so well the last

252
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. You got the Saints at the Cardinals.

253
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: That's gonna be another low scoring affairs. Who's gonna play

254
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: for the Saints? I mean, Hopkins is back for the

255
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: Cardinal does that put the Cardinals defense and play for you?

256
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm thinking. I mean, how about both

257
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: defenses Saints have the better. This could be another twelve

258
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: seven game, I guess. I mean, I mean, the Cardinals

259
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: just went to Seattle and it's a nineteen to ten game.

260
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 1: You would think they'd be high scoring games, but they're not.

261
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: From Yeah, I guess they're both in play, but I'm

262
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: not thrilled with it. I mean a lot of good

263
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,119
Speaker 1: defenses are off this week though the Ravens host the Browns.

264
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: I'd probably play the Ravens d not playing the Brown's defense.

265
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: I don't care who they plays. I wouldn't play Brown's defense. Yeah, yeah,

266
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: I mean they're not. It's the Buccaneers who just came here.

267
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: They play the Panthers. That's glorious. The Buccaneers defense is

268
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: probably in your league, but they could be number one

269
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: number one this week, right. I'm sure they're in their league.

270
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: But that's maybe someone's upset with them. Falcons Bengals. I

271
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: think Bengals are close to an every week starter. Here's

272
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: the thing, though, in that game, are they gonna get

273
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: many sacks? And so therefore they're not gonna get many interceptions.

274
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: I just think the points will be down. I mean,

275
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: that's the chance of a pick six is low. The

276
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: Bengals did just give up over two yard rushing to

277
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: The Saints might be out to yeah, Logan Wilson might

278
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: be out for them. The Falcons might play keep away

279
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: from them. Oh, I'm sure that's the only way they

280
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: can play. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure the Falcons will

281
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: win time possession. I just don't know the Lano Pap points.

282
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: It's in SENSEI. I just don't know that I trust

283
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: either defenses to score anything for me, because it's just

284
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: I think they'll be like Sin better than the Thursday Nighters. Uh,

285
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 1: I kind of like the Saints defense. I think they're

286
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: in the same neighborhood the Lions and Cowboys play in

287
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: this Dallas might be the number of off on the

288
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: road is is not as good you always start Dallas'll

289
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: get sacked in How about this one? The Giants are

290
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: at the Jaguars. You're interested in either one of those defenses.

291
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: They just got lit up by Matt Ryan. Yuh. And

292
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: Giants tea hasn't been terrible. They've been not bad. I

293
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: think I play. The Jags in that same neighborhood is

294
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: like the Saints Bengals. They're probably like best defenses. The

295
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: culture at the Titans both. Oh man, I don't like you.

296
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: I don't want to have to start either one of them.

297
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: It's just an indictment of the offenses. Yeah, well that's

298
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: exactly what it is. I mean, they played a couple

299
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: of weeks ago and it was yeah's some bad matchups.

300
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: As we had to say, it's not a good week

301
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: of NFL football. The Packers are at the Commander's and

302
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: Taylor Heineke. I mean, we both have some Packer stock

303
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: and it's not as high as it should be in

304
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: my opinion. But I'm rolling with it. I get yeah,

305
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: you gotta start him this week, have to. Jets are

306
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: at the Broncos. I can't start watching his defense now,

307
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: I just don't. My point was, I'm not afraid of

308
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 1: starting people against the Packers anymore in Washington, Washington. Yeah,

309
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 1: this one's interesting. Jets at Broncos both. Yeah, I think

310
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 1: both are in play. Jets might be really high on

311
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 1: my list. They might be, especially if if Wilson doesn't play.

312
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 1: I don't even care. Well, there's that their offense is broken,

313
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: But man, how bad is it gonna look if it's

314
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 1: not Russell Wilson in there. I think Denver might have

315
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: a top five defense, but they're just always on the

316
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: field and in a terrible situation. They'll bet is gonna

317
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: be very usable. That could that could be as they

318
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: I would bet the Jets will be reasonably cheap. I

319
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: would think, probably opening a lot of leagues. How about

320
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: this one. The Texans are at the Raiders. Are the Raiders?

321
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: Is the Raiders defense playable this week? Max Crosby will

322
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: get to the quarter but I bet they have four sacks? Yeah,

323
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 1: they'll get to the quarterback. I mean between Jones and Crosby.

324
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: I guess st neighborhood. You know. Yeah. The Chargers host

325
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. I don't want either one of defenses. Seahawks

326
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: are unplayable period and Sea offense pretty decent. The Chiefs

327
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: are at the forty Niners. That might be the best

328
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: game of the weekend. Niners are in every league. Yeah,

329
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: it's the Chiefs defense starter startable this week? Tennish Again,

330
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: they're in that borderline gray area. All they do is

331
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: get sacks. What do you do with the Niners, do

332
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: you though, I want to know how healthy the defensive

333
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: line is. First of all, they might get sacks and

334
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,959
Speaker 1: allow with law points in the I mean yeah, I mean,

335
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: I don't love start. I don't I don't love it. No,

336
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: I don't love it at all. Again, Steelers at Dolphins both, yeah, both.

337
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 1: And then the final game of the weekend Bears at

338
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 1: Patriots Patriots. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean anyone against the Bears,

339
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: and the Patriots are pretty solid. I wonder if it's

340
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: uh if this is when if Billy z Appy starts

341
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:06,239
Speaker 1: again this week, which could happen, could happen the Monday nighter. Yeah,

342
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: these stand alone Bears games and Bronco games, they're just

343
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: force feeding US Bears and Broncos on standalone games because

344
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: the Bears are The Bears are gonna run the football. Yeah,

345
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 1: they're gonna eat up clock. I don't know if the

346
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: Patriots are gonna light them up Fields takes a million

347
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: sacks though, he does, you know, I mean, I'm starting

348
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: the Patriots. I'm I'm talking about it's the Bears defense startable.

349
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 1: Maybe it's not bad. I mean, they've got some guys,

350
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: they got some guys and you know, the offense doesn't

351
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: help them at all. But the Bears D is not

352
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: their problem. No, no, I mean I guess it's usable.

353
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 1: Like would you rather start the Bears or Steelers same neighborhood? Yeah,

354
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 1: probably Steelers. Miami offensive lines trash? I bet to see

355
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 1: what gets sacks. Yeah, that deadline is trash. Side note.

356
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: I mean Miami is so bad on special teams. Maybe

357
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 1: they get a block punt for or something, you know,

358
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: maybe there would you say thirty second d special Keep

359
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: an eye on that, folks. Yeah, the Dolphins special teams

360
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: have not been good this year, so that's something to

361
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 1: keep an eye on as well. Man, Just not not

362
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: much that I want to see there this weekend this

368
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,719

Speaker 1: Oh there it is Vikings and the Yeah, I mean

390
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: that this might be the worst Fantasy bye week of

391
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: the season. A lot of wins on those teams. When

392

393
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,159

394
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,760

397
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: bad slate to say, the very watchable teams. Yeah, so

398
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 1: well we'll find some DFS defenses to play out of

399

Speaker 1: that group, I'm sure, but yeah, there weren't bad. No,
