1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: You were tuned about Drive on your home of the

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: Black and Goal Steelers Nation Radio. Welcome back. I'm Dale

3
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,439
Speaker 1: Lelly here with Matt Williamson. And since it is Friday, Matt,

4
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,479
Speaker 1: we'll do a little Friday Fantasy football focus as we

5
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: lead up to the uh NFL start of NFL training camps.

6
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: And today I thought we'd look at the fantasy football

7
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: sleepers bus and breakouts listed on NFL or I'm sorry,

8
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 1: on ESPNS list here. This is put together by their

9
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: fantasy writers and editors, Stefania Bell, Matthew Berry, Matt bow

10
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: and Mike Clay, Tristan Cockroft, Joe Daniel Dropped, Joe Kaiser,

11
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 1: Eric Carrabell, Keith Lipscomb, Eric Moody, Kyle Sop and Field Yates.

12
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: Used to be able to see one Matt Williamson's name

13
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 1: on that list, but no more. There's about six or

14
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: seven folks that I would be at the Fantasy summit

15
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: from that group back Keith Lipscom, Eric Carabelle, Daniel Pop

16
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 1: was my producer for my podcast back then, and Mike

17
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: Clay had just gotten hired. Um Bowen wasn't with the

18
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 1: guys yet, but Barry was and as was Stefani. I

19
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: mean a lot of those guys that consider friends. Phield

20
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: Gates was a part of the team back then too. Yeah,

21
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: so let's work the list of quarterbacks sleepers real quick.

22
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: The word sleeper made a lot of sense to me

23
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: when I was a kid and there wasn't the Internet

24
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: and I didn't know about the safety from you tap

25
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: and he's a sleeper, or Elsie Greenwood was a sleeper,

26
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: you know, like in today's world, I don't know if

27
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: there's a lot of sleepers on the planet anymore. Everybody

28
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: knows everybody. Yeah, well they list for Matthew Berry, it's

29
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, from Matt Bowen, It's Derek Carr, Mike Clayless.

30
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is a sleeper now. I kind of get

31
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: that because everybody's thinking he can take a big step

32
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: back this year because he didn't have any pass catchers. Well, coincidentally,

33
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: I did my quarterback and tight end lists, my preliminary ones,

34
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: and I have Rogers QB four T Wow. I mean right,

35
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: Therick Stafford and car that would make him a sleeper.

36
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: I guess he counts. I mean, he probably won't end

37
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: up on my team, doesn't mean, I hate him, you know,

38
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: but I don't know if they'll throw as much. Tristan Cocker,

39
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: Uffless Tree, Lance Lance ahead of Rogers. I'm just looking

40
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: for different The guys who are listed here, they have

41
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: different names. Joe Kaiser has justin Fields Eric Eric Moody

42
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: as Matt Ryan. I'm not buying that, so does the

43
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: Vania and I just he's as a pulling up my

44
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: list here. He is right behind Mac Jones Matt Ryan.

45
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: Remember three yards this year, and he's going to hand

46
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: the ball if a whole bunch of times. Yeah, yeah,

47
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's a nice pick up to

48
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: win football games. He will not be on my favorite.

49
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: Don't want him on a fantasy team. Now. Quarterback Busts Rogers.

50
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: A lot of people have Aaron Rodgers, Joe Kaiser as

51
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. Murray's my number two. I don't understand that.

52
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: In fact, those are the only guys listening until we

53
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: get down to Mike Clay, who lists Joe Burrow as

54
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 1: his quarterback. Bust Out, I don't see that. I guess

55
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: I agree with Rogers. I five Rogers Dean and he's

56
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: probably going nine or ten. I guess I think I

57
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: wouldn't buy him at that price. I vehemently disagree with

58
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. I mean, Josh Allen, to me, is the

59
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: only only quarterback that has the combination of passing yards

60
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: and running yards better than Murray. Clay has some interesting

61
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: arguments here about Joe Burrow being not being that guy.

62
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: He finished eighth in fantasy points last year, with forty

63
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: seven percent of those points coming in three games. Wow,

64
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: that's a little sustainable, right. He's gonna be drafted, and

65
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: he'll be drafted as a top five fantasy quarterback. Okay,

66
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: I guess I I mean I have him seven. I

67
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: have him behind like Jalen Hurts and Herbert Okay, I

68
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: get I get that. I mean they're gonna run a

69
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,799
Speaker 1: little bit, they're gonna run more. Yeah, I mean we don't.

70
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: Don't overdraft Joe Burrow based on what he did in

71
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: the playoffs last year. Necessarily. I mentioned I like a

72
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: lot of these guys, and I think Clay does as

73
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: well as good at work as any of them. And

74
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: he's a little more analytically based in these guys and

75
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: does projections. I might wait his thoughts a little more

76
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: than I do some of these other people voting, and

77
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: it is a pretty good case, you know. Yeah, I

78
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: mean he's gonna be a top twelve quarterback. He's gonna

79
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: start for some fantasy team in your league, and those

80
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: in those three or four weeks where he has those

81
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: monster games, you're gonna love it. But I'd much rather

82
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: have the consistency. Yeah, be cool if I'm betting those

83
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: three weeks are Tamaar Chase continit yarder or that. I mean,

84
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: if you remember he had that game against the Ravens

85
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: where the Ravens were just completely just devastated and they

86
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: were still throwing the football late in the game because

87
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,919
Speaker 1: they were they were ticked off with the Ravens and

88
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: they had the worst past defense in the league. Yeah,

89
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the schedule is a little more

90
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: difficult this year, and just so just be careful with

91
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: that one. Yeah, that's a good thought. I mean, he'll

92
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: be fine, he's not gonna kill you, but I probably

93
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: won't pick him at a DP. You know. The running

94
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: back sleepers. Stefania has Elijah Mitchell, No, thanks for me, Yeah,

95
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: Matthew Berry is Ken Walker. Mm hmm. I'm fiddling with

96
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: the running back ranks and I have Walker over Penny,

97
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: but they're like neck and neck, neck and neck. Yeah.

98
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: Matt Bowen has Miles Sanders. That interests me just because

99
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 1: I think they're a line is tremendous and he's in

100
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: a contract year. Yeah. Trista Cockroft has Travis at N

101
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: I think him. I think that's a good I think

102
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: I was gonna guess seventeen games. I mean he could

103
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: he could play a lot. Yeah. Uh. Daniel Dopp has

104
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: a J. Green or a J. Dillon. I'm sorry, a J. Dillon. Okay, Um.

105
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: I think I mentioned before there's a lot of thought

106
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: that Dylan and Aaron Jones will be on the field

107
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: together a lot. Yeah, a lot, and so that's good

108
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: for both. I'll take either one of those guys, yeah yeah,

109
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 1: and if the other one happens get hurt, look out.

110
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: I'll take them both actually and play them both. Eric

111
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: Moody has Melvin Gordon. I don't know if I can

112
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: get on board with that. I'm too much of a

113
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: Javante fan to be on that. Javonte gets carries this year.

114
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: The busts Stefania, who's their injury expert, listens as James Conner.

115
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: He's going really high though, I mean, somebody else can

116
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: have him because I don't want him. I've seen two much.

117
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people the more fantasy homework you

118
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: guys do that are gonna be on the fore net

119
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: and James Conner camps and their logic is simple, there's

120
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: no competition. I'll take four net, you know, as my

121
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: RB two. I don't want James Conner. I agree, and

122
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: both of them are gonna be ranked lower than they're

123
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: going for me because I don't think he the one

124
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: is all that good. Yeah, Matthew Berry is Antonio Gibson,

125
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: which is a complete turnaround from where he was at

126
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: last year. Matthew is actually a big Washington fan too. Yeah,

127
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's down on Gibson. Mike Clay as Nick Chubb.

128
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I assume he's thinking twelve band boxes, twelve

129
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: man boxes, and maybe he thinks he's you know they

130
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: at this point, you're starting to get a little bit

131
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: of an injury um track record here, Yeah, a little bit.

132
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: He's three years he's what is he is? He is

133
00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: here for? Yeah? This is your He's missed him every

134
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: season and we we had insane Stat's last segment about

135
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: Henry with the Titans. Trubb doesn't get that workload, but

136
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: his carries aren't easy ones either. I agree. Tristan Cockroft

137
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: has Cordill Patterson. I completely agree with that, and he

138
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: will not be on my team. I don't think he's

139
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: a running back. I don't think he is either, but

140
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: he's he's listed as one and maybe he can. You know,

141
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: he might be useful for a few games for you.

142
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: Is that? But no? Thanks? Eric Moody has Josh Jacobs.

143
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: Shandon Jacobs is really cheap this year and my worry

144
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: with Jacobs is they might take a New England approach

145
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: to the backfield. They drafted some mere white. Drake is

146
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: still they're making money even though they could have cut him. Um,

147
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: they have some receiving back to that could be the

148
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 1: James White. But then you look at the flip side

149
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 1: and say Gruden never threw the ball to Jacobs. Maybe

150
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: this staff will actually throw the ball to Yeah, that's

151
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: not not exactly what New England has always done either.

152
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: They've had their primary ball carrier and then they've had

153
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 1: their receiving backs. Got back Kyle sap As, Javonte Williams.

154
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: I'll gladly have Javonte Williams on my team. Yeah, I

155
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: mean maybe he's looking at that and saying, you know that,

156
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: I'm sure if Melvin they hadn't resigned Melvin Gordon, Um,

157
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 1: the world will be different, right because you know they

158
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: have Gordon big money. They didn't stand out there for

159
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: a long time. But he's good. He's still gonna get

160
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: tank carries a game, which are gonna be ten annoying

161
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: carries for the hope they don't last year. Last year

162
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 1: was a kind of a fifty fifty split that each

163
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: got like fifteen carries a game. They actually ended with

164
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: the exact same number of characters. So let's let's say

165
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: this year it's it's eighteen to ten somewhere in that

166
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: same range. Is that still enough to get you Javonte

167
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: Williams or Javonte Williams are gonna go see but he's

168
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: going in the second round. I understand that. I mean

169
00:09:55,440 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 1: Gordon's going in like ten. Yeah, I but what if

170
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: the offense runs a hundred more plays because the Wilson

171
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: instead of crappy quarterback? What if what if the reason

172
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 1: that the Seahawks ran uh or didn't run many plays

173
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: last years because Wilson likes likes to step up to

174
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage and process everything but the clock. Pickicktick. Yeah,

175
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: I'm betting on talent with Williams, but yeah, I mean

176
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 1: it's kind of baked into his a DP right now. Yeah,

177
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: a little bit. He'd be a first round pick. I

178
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: love the player, don't get me wrong the player, but

179
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: you you understand that there are gonna be times when

180
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: you're you're sitting there and you're watching the game and

181
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Melvin Gordon, you know, Javante Williams

182
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: runs them down the football field and they get inside

183
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: the twenty. Here comes Melvin Gordon. That's going to happen.

184
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: It'll happen. Yeah, that's gonna happen. Uh. Wide receiver sleepers,

185
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: Now this was There's a lot of names on this list.

186
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: Stefania has Crystal Lovey. I think that's fine. I like

187
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: that offense. And I do not trust Thomas at all

188
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: right now. Matthew Berry as Robert Woods, I don't trust

189
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 1: his health. He would not be my pick here. I

190
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: want to see if he's ready for the preseason, how

191
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: long he's gonna be out. Matthew Bowen as Russell gauge. Well,

192
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: there's no Godwin or Gronk. Yeah. And they threw the

193
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: ball a ton last year a ton. Yeah, and they

194
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: gave him money immediately. I mean, and even when Godwin

195
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: comes back, he should be a factor. Mike Clay has

196
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: Drake London. Yeah, I know you don't like the player necessarily.

197
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: I think I like him more than you do. Yeah,

198
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: there's nobody in his path. I mentioned my concerns with

199
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 1: Kelsey the last segments, and it's because Pits is my

200
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: number one tight end and in a way the logic

201
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: can be made for London too. That with it was

202
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: my logic for having Pits so high. They're gonna be

203
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 1: the only two guys got to catch the balls, and

204
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: they're gonna be behind all the time, all right, And

205
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 1: it was you know, I mean, I think I think

206
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: Drake London can catch seveny passes this year? Could I

207
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 1: may change my tune When I watched him in an

208
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: NFL uniform, I have questions about him as a prospect.

209
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: Tristan Cockroft has roundel Moore. I mean, I think is

210
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: rondel Moore startable from weeks one to six while Hopkins

211
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: is out? I think there's potential for that. Yeah, if

212
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: you can start him in week one because you think

213
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,599
Speaker 1: him and Marquise Brown will probably be the two main targets,

214
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: then I'm on board. That's two tiniest number one targets

215
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: and like just tiny with a five three quarterback into Yeah,

216
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 1: Daniel Dopp has Jerry Judy Okay, I think it might

217
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: be Sutting more than Judy as willsonite guys going higher. Yeah,

218
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: Carabelle has Adam feeling boring, but boy, he's going late.

219
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: He could be a kind of this year's I get it.

220
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: He's he's older, but he's kind of like um alan

221
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,839
Speaker 1: in with the Chargers, like they just do it every

222
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 1: just do it every year. I mean you could you'll

223
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: get him as your number three wide receiver this year

224
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: based on where he's going. Oh yeah, easily, and he'll

225
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: outproduce that the other The two things about it that

226
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: are interesting are the new coaching staff will throw the

227
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: ball higher percentage than Zimmers did. I mean, that's money

228
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: in the bank no matter how the season goes. And

229
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: all the stats nerves will tell you touchdowns aren't sticky

230
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: year to year, Well they are with him. Cousins throws

231
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: on the ball in the end zone all the time.

232
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: Yust him down there? Yeah yeah, yeah. Uh. Keith Lipscomb

233
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: has Darnell Mooney. He scares me because he's going pretty

234
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: high and everybody knows who he is now. And there's

235
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 1: some of that Drake London logic too. I mean, you'll

236
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: catch garbage time. I just don't think Mooney even resembles

237
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: a number one NFL receiver. I'd rather have feeling the Mooney,

238
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: me too. And I bet you can get feeling later.

239
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: I don't know that as a fact. Probably later, yeah, right,

240
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 1: can Ill saw up as Christian Kirk, Yeah, I mean

241
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: he's a legit NFL receiver on what I think will

242
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: be an improved team. And then field eight says Gabriel Davis.

243
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: And the logic with Davis is he is truly the

244
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: number two in Buffalo. Now he will He used to

245
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: be a six snap guy, now he's a nine percent

246
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 1: snap guy. Well, that in itself has a lot of value.

247
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: The wide receiver bus real quick, though, Davis is going

248
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: very high, much higher than two high. Yeah, too high

249
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: for me. Yeah, the wide receiver bus. Stefania Bell has

250
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: a Marii Cooper, Matthew Berry has Jleen Waddle, Matthew Bowen,

251
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: has Deante Johnson. I don't se I don't know how

252
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: Deontay could bust this year. I don't either, Like he's

253
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: gonna see Claypool while producing him. Possibly, but I think

254
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: you can bet on that you can see it. You

255
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: could pencil Deonte Johnson in for ninety catches this year. Yeah,

256
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: I mean, and that's a lot of the fall off,

257
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: you know, but it is a lot of the national

258
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: narrative is he was Ben's woo bee. The new guys

259
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: are gonna throw to him that much. But he's still Look,

260
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: I mean, the people who know the team, he's the

261
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: best guy on the team of getting open. Yes, he's

262
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: the guy who gets open consistently, mm hmm consistently. So

263
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna get the targets. He may not get the

264
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: targets that he did with Ben, but he's not gonna

265
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: be probably he's not gonna be a buss. He's not

266
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: gonna have sixty catches this year. No, And he's not

267
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: a super high fantasy pick right now either. Right, that's

268
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: the other that's the beauty of it. Yeah, Like when

269
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: I'm talking bus, I'm talking about a first or second

270
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 1: round guy that I drafted that you know hurt my team. Well,

271
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: these these next couple of guys fit that that wrote

272
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: that move. Uh, Mike Clay as Allen Robinson, Okay, Daniel

273
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: Dupp as Michael Thomas. I don't think Thomas will be

274
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: on my team. Joe Kaiser has Tyreek Hill. Interesting both

275
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: Dolphins Waddles on here. Yeah, both Dolphins wide receivers show

276
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: up on this list. So okay, Yeah, there's Waddle on

277
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: here three times and Tyreach on there once. I think

278
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: it was last segment where we were saying I might

279
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: I would rather Waddle for the price than Tyreek for

280
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: the price, who's more expensive, but CANTA support both. They

281
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: both get the catches and it's right right. And the

282
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: problem with Waddle two is this doesn't hurt that bad

283
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: and fantasy, but his average depth of targets like half

284
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: a yard behind the line of scrimmage half the time,

285
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: like everything just rb O get it to him to

286
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: get tackled. You know the last guy listed on here

287
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: who wasn't listened by anybody else, phield Dight says Mike Williams.

288
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 1: Mike Williams could be on my team. He's probably going

289
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: like the fifth round or so of fantasy draft tight

290
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 1: end sleepers. Stefaniez Irv Smith, Matthew very high. Yeah, Matthew

291
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: Berry is Logan Thomas, Mike Lay has pet Friar Muth.

292
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: Daniel really concerned with Friar Muth. And do you think

293
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: you said this Wednesday? I think Friar Muse will catch

294
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns this year and in his career.

295
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: I just wonder about all the Steelers pass catchers, how

296
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 1: big the pie is going to be, because there's four

297
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: or five guys that are all deserving of catches. Yeah, now,

298
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 1: I hear you. Daniel Dopp has co commit. That's one

299
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 1: of my favorites. He won't be my starting tight end,

300
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: but he might be my fallback plan. Joe Kaiser is

301
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram. Can you go down to the Evan Ingram

302
00:17:55,840 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: road again? Super late? Yeah? Uh. Eric Carrabell has Albert Oh.

303
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: He's my thirteen ran tight end. But it's pretty high,

304
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: so I think I'm on board with that too. Kyle

305
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: Sap has Robert Tonyan. Yeah, I mean I mean somebody

306
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 1: you know, no athlete and no Rogers likes him. That's

307
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: just stay. He has Rogers trust, and he has no

308
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: other tight ends in his way. He'll probably be the

309
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 1: tight end ten when the season's over. Yeah, tight end

310
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 1: busts for Stefania bell Is, Darren Waller. I assume that

311
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 1: just means less targets. Yeah. Yeah, Matthew's name a lot

312
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: on here. Matthew Berry is Mike YASICKI that have him

313
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: low too, So basically on the bust list. They have

314
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: all the AF of Dolphins pass catchers, and I think

315
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: the logic is too I can't keep three of them,

316
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: you know. Adp Worthy, Yeah, Matthew Bowen as Dawson Knox,

317
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: so does my Clay got to my favorite of these analysts,

318
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: and Daniel Dopp and yeah he shows up under three times. Yeah,

319
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 1: he's going pretty high. I mean there's like six or

320
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 1: seven tight ends in this draft. Kelsey Andrew's kid or Waller, Pitts,

321
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: Hawkins and Goadter Schultz those that's eight names, and then

322
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: Knox is usually like next. But I'm not sure that

323
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: he's in like the others, you know what I mean.

324
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: And I'm not a Schultz guy either, but I think

325
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: there's seven good tight ends this year. Tristan Cockroft has

326
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry Well. I don't know if that counts as

327
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: a bus because I don't think he's gonna go top twelve.

328
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: He didn't even make my top eight teen. Eric Moody

329
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 1: has Dallas Goddard. That's a new name. I love Goddard,

330
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: but I think it's just can they get I mean,

331
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: Smith and Brown and daughter? Can they all be fed?

332
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 1: I hurt kind of in a Miami to Us sort

333
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: of way. That'll be tough. And then field Yate says

334
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 1: no a fan, Okay, I mean they must have some

335
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: plan for him. They liked them enough to trade for him. Yeah,

336
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: but the quarterback plays on good. They got one more

337
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 1: list on here. They have two breakout players. Stefania Bell

338
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: has Trede Lance Matthew Berry has Rashad Bateman. I breakout

339
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: might be a strong word there for Bateman. I mean

340
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: I think he breaks out in NFL terms as a

341
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 1: really good player, But I don't know the terms of fantasy.

342
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 1: Who would fantasy would be lucky to be a wide

343
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 1: receiver three in that office? Based on volume? R Yeah,

344
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,199
Speaker 1: I mean he's getta get you know, sixty catch at

345
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 1: fifty to sixty catches? Is that enough to sustain probably not.

346
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: Mike Clay has bries Breece Hall. That's a good one. Yeah.

347
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: Tristan Cockroft has JK. Dobbins. I could certainly see it,

348
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: especially we get a little bit better injury news soon.

349
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: Daniel Dopp has Derek Carr Joe Kaiser. Car's a sneaky

350
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: guy to lead a league in passing yards, but he's

351
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 1: never gonna run, you know that. Ever, I guess I

352
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: have a brady like season to be a starter. Um

353
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 1: Kaiser has Darnell Mooney. Carrabelle has Jerry Judy keep Keith

354
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 1: Lipscomb has Garrett Wilson with the Jets. I don't see it.

355
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: I don't see that either. Eric Moody has I'd rather

356
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 1: have Elijah more than Garrett will Yeah, I would too.

357
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: Eric Moody as Sky more. Possibly not a lot of

358
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:35,120
Speaker 1: competition in front of him, right. Kyle Sop has Josh Palmer.

359
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,479
Speaker 1: I mean like he's a valuable guy in Dynasty. I

360
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: just don't know that he'll ever be Can I check

361
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 1: the box on Sunday morning for the Chargers third receiver

362
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 1: in my starting line unless unless one of the other

363
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: two guys ahead him or hurt No, Right, I mean

364
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 1: stashing Palmer is for the day that Alan's gone, or

365
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: he's on the field every snap. I mean he's the

366
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: third receiver. Yeah, I agree, But those are the guys

367
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: on their breakout players list. Um I could see some

368
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 1: of those guys breaking out, like I could see brief

369
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: Hall being a yep, very valuable player of Dobbins or

370
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: the sky More. Um a Tens the name we've both

371
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,399
