Speaker 1: see that later in the show as well. All right,

16
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 1: let's dive into the action from last night. There were

17
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: quite a few storylines, to say the least, in Philadelphia

18
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: yesterday as the Eagles took on the suddenly legally challenged Steelers.

19
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: Nip Foles there. Yeah's a pretty nice night. Watch this

20
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: a past Prince Selik and then fights off one tackler.

21
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: Then I don't know, friend Selex sporting, but his helma

22
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: did blow up their dusted himself off and would play.

23
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: Here's Lashawn, I love this number one. That guy's good.

24
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: Shady's to say the least. Here's Darren Sprawls though, fighting

25
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: his way foward. Touched down for him, and a pretty

26
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: good evening for him as well, thirty three yards on

27
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: just six carries. But Ben roethlisbergers, my lord, bail a

28
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: little something something here fund of Heath Miller. Beautiful pitch

29
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: and catch to Heath Miller. All right. Later on there

30
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: are Eagles standing off to some fellow named Nathew Tucker.

31
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: Yards six yards and two touchdowns on the night for

32
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: Tucker as the Eagles hold off the Steelers in a

33
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: thirty one victory. All right, lost to look at here

34
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: obviously in that game. Uh some takeaways here? We saw

35
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: Macklin also get injured. Not pictured there. We're gonna see

36
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: it in just a moment. Uh, what were your takeaways

37
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: from that injury? I'm out, You're done. I can't I

38
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 1: don't have the Constitution to just stand. I can't. I

39
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: can't go through a full sixteen sixteen games like that

40
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: this year. I love his potential, I love his talent

41
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: and everything like that, but watching them, just seeing that happen,

42
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh no, and I feel I mean, I

43
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: feel bad for him. I watched, you know, some of

44
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: the other guys you know this offseason go through injuries

45
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: like that. You feel for these guys, but I mean,

46
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: looking to happen to boy, I've seen that before, it

47
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: looks like a little hyper extension, whatever it is. I'm

48
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: not a doctor, but I can't say a lot of

49
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: the fact that he was able to come back, and

50
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 1: that's that's that's that toughness that they want to see

51
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: for the Philadelphia Eagles, And if you're a fantasy owner,

52
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: you should be encouraged by his return. If you were

53
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: a player in that situation, you get kind of demmed

54
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: up in a preseason game. Good idea, bad idea to

55
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: come back. Well, this is one of the most important

56
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: games for a veteran, So it is important for you

57
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: to come back because you're about to take a little

58
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: off for the you know, Week four, you want to

59
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: get back into it. So you want to play Week three.

60
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: You're showing your teammates, the coaches, everybody that look, I'm

61
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: the man. Macklin wants to be that guy's good Levian

62
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: bell La Garrett Blunt obviously gote to a little bit

63
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: of legal trouble before this game a fantasy. From a

64
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective, a lot of folks looking at little dree Archer.

65
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: Is that a guy that we should be talking about.

66
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I've been high on him as a sleeper

67
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: because he he be moving up those ranks. I don't

68
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: know that I'm taking a chance on dree Archers any

69
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,839
Speaker 1: thing more than kind of a flex option, maybe even

70
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: just say a late round flyer sort of thing. They

71
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: like him, they want to use him as kind of

72
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: a gadget guy. I'm here and maybe ten touches a game,

73
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: zero carries and three receptions. He's not the guy who's

74
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: gonna suddenly jump in there. Beller Blunt is gone a

75
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 1: lot like Dexter mccluster for the Chiefs last year, where

76
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: he had a lot of exciting plays but not somebody

77
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: could count on. From a fantasy perspective, how about this kid,

78
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,119
Speaker 1: Matthew Tucker. Ten carries forty six yards two touchdowns. Uh,

79
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: people don't really talk about a Lashawn McCoy handcuff, but

80
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: if there is one, is this guy they appropriate ad No, No,

81
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: I think the talent is in in Pulk. I mean

82
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: they're their backup running back. I think he's a guy

83
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: Tucker that you're just gonna watch, but obviously no value.

84
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: If there's injuries, then there's somebody to to look at.

85
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: But that's what this preseason game is for. You want

86
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: to get a chance at their depth. What do they

87
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: have in depth? So you know what they bring. So

88
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: there's an Acota type performance like last year, you know, Okay,

89
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: I can plug this guy in for a game. Chris

90
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: Pope was the reason that Bryce Brown got moved. I

91
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 1: mean they like what he can offer them. All right,

92
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the Friday prese and schedule,

93
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: shall it? There? It is Jaguars at Lions. Let's talk

94
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: about some of the games tonight what fans should be

95
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: watching for, and we're gonna start with Carolina. Take it on,

96
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: New England. Marcus Grant, give me some points that are

97
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: looking for in this game. The one thing I'm looking

98
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: for is Kelvin Benjamin to see what he can offer. Obviously,

99
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: he's the guy who's expected to be the top target

100
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: for Cam Newton this year in that offense. We've all

101
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: talked about how questionable their wide receivers are gonna be.

102
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin made some big plays. We know he's a

103
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: big body guy. He's a guy they're gonna like down

104
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: near the goal line, can go up and get the football.

105
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: I mean he showed that in the National Championship Game,

106
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: catching the game winning touchdown there for Florida State. I

107
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: want to see if he can do this consistently. I

108
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: want to see if he can be able to survive

109
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: against the New England secondary, then maybe I'll start to

110
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: put a little stock in him. It's kind of a

111
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: middle light round, you know, it's funny. I think he's

112
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 1: gonna put up tight end one numbers. I don't know.

113
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy's a tight end man. I mean

114
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: eight hundred yards a touch sdowns. I think that's very

115
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: doable for Calvin Benjamin. A right, Jacksonville is in Detroit

116
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 1: and night and for the Jacks, we're gonna get an

117
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: extended look to see if Toby Gerhardt is for real.

118
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: But for Detroit They've got a new coach at Jim

119
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: called Will. And when I'm really interested in seeing Reggie Bush,

120
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: is he gonna be the real deal? Is Jim called

121
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: Will gonna kind of move away from Reggie Bush go

122
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,119
Speaker 1: with Joy Bell. Who's the better between the runs? Tackle

123
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: a bar? How how do you see that? Backfil I'm

124
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: gonna have to steal stick with Reggie Bush. Reggie Bush,

125
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: to me, is still that guy. I mean, Reggie Bush

126
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: has everything you need. Of course, he still has their hands.

127
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: He's he's very, very active in this offense. So U

128
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: Joy Bell is gonna be a guy that's gonna help

129
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: compliment those guys are gonna be a one to punch.

130
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: But it's going to be a split backfield. But I

131
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: still believe that the majority of the carry's gonna go

132
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: to Reggie Bush. He's the veteran. He's the guy that

133
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 1: I think that gives them the best opportunity and fantasy

134
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 1: owners the opportunity. But what's interesting to note is that

135
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: the Lions did pay Bell during the offseason, which means

136
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: they're committed doing for at least three years. He's gonna

137
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: get on the field. I like, I like both of them,

138
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: but I like Bell a little bit more. I think

139
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: he's upside is there, especially considering the injury history surrounding

140
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: j Bush, although he's been the model of health over

141
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: the last three seasons. So all right, preseason Battle of

142
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: New York is going down as well. Giants taken on

143
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: the j E T S Jets, Jets Jets rank. The

144
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: Chris Ivory Chris Johnson backfield is something that we should

145
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: definitely be watching for as well. I'm absolutely gonna be

146
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: keeping my eye on this. One of the worst thing

147
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: that ever happened to Chris Johnson was him rushing for

148
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: two thousand yards because he got that idiotic nickname, and

149
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: now that's all everybody has as an expectation for the

150
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: dude got paid, yes, everything, everything over. You know, anything

151
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: less than two thousand yards is a disappointment. But realized

152
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: last year he was right there in fantasy points with

153
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. Nobody seems to remember that, and now he's

154
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: going into a backfield with Chris Ivory, who finished the

155
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: season very well last year. I like both of these guys.

156
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: I like the values that you get for both of

157
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: them that you see right there sixth round, fifteen round.

158
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: They're gonna use them a lot on the field together.

159
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: At the same time, they're gonna spread out Johnson wide

160
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: and let him do some things. I like both of

161
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: Oakland taken on Green Bay. Who better talk about this

162
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: matchup than the former radar himself up bar Bonsha Bian Miller.

163
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: The running backs, that suation a lot of question marks there.

164
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: Who do you like, Maurice Jones Drew or Darren McFadden.

165
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: It has to be m j D. M j D

166
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: to me is the is the lead favorite here because

167
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: I think he has more durability. I think he's going

168
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: to be for the long haul. When you're looking at

169
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: your fantasy ross, a guy that can carry the ball.

170
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: Now with Darren McFadden, he's got that explosive ability. We

171
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: know what he can do. I was there when he's

172
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: he got there in two thousand and eight. I've seen

173
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: the talent in Darren McFadden. I just don't know that

174
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: he can last an entire season. And if you can't

175
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: last an entire season, I don't want you on my roster.

176
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with m j D. But you're getting

177
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: him round. That's true. That then you know if he's there.

178
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 1: But somebody always gets a little anxious and they see

179
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: run DMC and they go up there and get him

180
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: earlier than that he should be. And then that's why

181
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: you get That's where you get into trouble. Everybody scared

182
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: of him. Now eody wants it. He's going that early.

183
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: I like it. Chicago taking on Seattle, the twin Towers

184
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: of Marshall, and al Sean taking on the legion of

185
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: Boom a Bar. What are you watching for here? I

186
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: am watching for al Shan Jeffrey. This is an important

187
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: game for him. He is going up against the most

188
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 1: expensive backfield we met that they paid Richard Sherman and

189
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,439
Speaker 1: anybody in that secondary. We know that this is an

190
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: elite defensive group. And al Shan Jeffrey, how are you

191
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: going to be for the remainder of this season? If

192
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: you can do well against them in this preseason game,

193
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: that lets me know that I am very comfortable taking

194
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: was one of my top wide receivers. Of course, he's

195
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: already that third round guy. I'm targeting him somewhere in

196
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: the third round. You hurt me, say, don't try to

197
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: take him before I know. I know you're still my analysis.

198
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: I like al Sean Jeffrey, and that's what I'm watching

199
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 1: for Alshan. Jeffrey is a young, up and coming dude.

200
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: I love his potential. I mean, we talked about a

201
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 1: guy who had not one, but to two hundred yard

202
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: receiving games. The guy is an absolute beast. Like the bromance,

203
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: the bromance is still the Laron Marshall's talk about Jeffrey's.

204
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: It's all about b Marsha. I like it all right.

205
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: When NFL Fantasy Live returns, it seems every summer it's

206
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: gonna bring a new batch of fantasy buzz name but

207
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: which ones can you trust? We're gonna tell you who's

208
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: the real thing, who's just another summer flame? Coming up

209
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: to next and it's the most informative segment in all

210
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: of fantasy football. It's about Fantasy two of Days, and

211
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: we're tackling two NFC East teams full of fantasy value

212
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: and plenty of question marks as well to chat out

213
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 1: cowboys and g men. Right after this, all right, welcome

214
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 1: back to NFL Fantasy Live. Our Fantasy two Days rolls

215
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: onto Dallas, and to talk about it, we bring in

216
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: our senior Fantasy analyst, Michael Fabriano, who's joining us from

217
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: New York City. Uh, Mike, let's start with the quarterback,

218
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: Tony Romo. He's had two back surgeries and two off

219
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: seasons as their cost force concern. We're watching him go

220
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: pretty late in drafts twelve quarterback taking off the board,

221
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: and that's why there isn't any cross for concern because

222
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: his ADP is so high. Romo looked good to me

223
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 1: in that first preseason game four or five, had a

224
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: touchdown pass the Dez Bryant. And because the Cowboys are

225
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: going to be so bad defensively, I expect that they're

226
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: going to throw the ball a lot trying to erase

227
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 1: deficits in the second half. Scott Lanahan likes to throw

228
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: the football. We know that from his time in Detroit

229
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: and St. Louis, And Uh, this is going to be

230
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: maybe the most fantasy friendly team in the National Football

231
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: League and they may not win five games. I'm drafting

232
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: Romo late tenth or eleventh round as potentially a QB one,

233
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: and if you get him as a QV two, well

234
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: you got great depth there. Would I'd be right in

235
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: saying that because you take quarterbacks late, this is a

236
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: prime time target. If you employed that strategy. Yeah, Tony Romo,

237
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, Colin Kaepernick, Russell Wilson on that same tier.

238
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about DeMarco Murray. Uh, he's a

239
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 1: running back that's going very early in drafts, late first,

240
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: early second round. I'm worried about that price only because

241
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: if they're playing from behind, they may have to throw

242
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: the ball a lot. Should I be worried? No, you shouldn't,

243
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 1: because DeMarco can also catch the ball in the backfield.

244
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 1: Remember fifty three receptions last year. Very underrated as a

245
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: pass catcher. Now, the injury is is an issue with

246
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray. Remember last year was the first time he'd

247
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: really stay healthy in a while. But he's in a

248
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: contract year. He's the featured back. Regardless of what Jason

249
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: Garrett says about a committee, Lance Dunbar is not gonna

250
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: come home and steal carries from de Marco Murray, at

251
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: least not enough to hurt his fantasy value. I recently

252
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: did my one man, five round mock draft on NFL

253
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: dot Com, and I took de Marco with the last

254
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: pick in the first round. That's where he's gonna go,

255
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: late first, early second. I like his versatility. I like

256
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: the offense. I like de Marco Murray. All right, no

257
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: love for Lance Dunbar, but Jason Winton is gonna be

258
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 1: a guy that's commonly drafted as a fantasy tight end.

259
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: He's a big name brand, but he and he's going

260
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: in the middle rounds because fantasy managers perceived him to

261
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 1: be a reliable tight end option. But if you look

262
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: at his home versus away splits, he's got less receptions,

263
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: significantly less yards. And you look at the ninety plus

264
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: yard games he's had at home seven versus zero away,

265
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: then there's a touchdown difference as well. Uh, by season's end,

266
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: you look at eight d fifty yards and eight touchdowns.

267
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: Looks pretty good. But Dad's I gotta ask you, knowing

268
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: the home and away splits, is he a reliable tight

269
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: end option? Do you know what I see? James? I

270
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: see numbers from a tight end not named Jimmy Graham, Robertnkowski,

271
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: or Julius Thomas. That's what you're gonna get. That is

272
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 1: exactly what you're going to get at the tight end position.

273
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 1: Vernon Davis, same thing as Jason Witten, as Kyle Rudolph,

274
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: as zach Ertz, any of these guys, you are going

275
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: to see good weeks and bad weeks. Tight End is

276
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: not a consistent position from a fantasy perspective unless you

277
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: get one of the Big three. That's just the nature

278
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: of this position. Would you advocate taking Jason Witten in

279
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: those middle rounds? Absolutely if I needed to tight end,

280
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: but I'm not getting him probably until the seventh or

281
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: eighth round. I'm not targeting a tight end like Jason

282
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: Witten at that point. I want to try to get

283
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: some value there. The guys that I would go after earlier,

284
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: of course, are Graham Gronkowski, Julius Thomas, uh, maybe Jordan

285
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: Cameron or Vernon Davis. But Witten to me as a

286
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: guy that I'm drafting after round seven. Alright, Michael Fabiano

287
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 1: joining us from New York. We're gonna talk to you

288
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: in just a bit, but let's set it over Marcus

289
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 1: Grant and the guys for our look at Dallas's NFC

290
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: East rival, the New York Giants. Marcus Jamo our Fantasy

291
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: two and a train makes a stop in the Big Apples,

292
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: we talk about the New York Giants and guys. The

293
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: big offseason addition was Rashad Jennings in the backfield. So

294
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: we will start there with the Giants running backs sorting

295
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: out that backfield. Rashan Jennings is there, Andre Williams, is

296
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: there a bar start with you? Does? Does Andre Williams

297
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: making a little bit nervous about Jennings? No, No, not

298
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: at all. In fact, I like Rashad Jennings. I know

299
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: what Rashana Jennings brings to the table. I think he's

300
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: gonna really help out this team for the New York Giants.

301
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: And when I look at it, you you're talking about

302
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: where do you draft Rashad Jennings. That's the big question

303
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: for a lot of Fantasy owners, and it all depends

304
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: on what type of strategy you're going to employ. If

305
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna take a Jimmy Graham in the first round

306
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 1: or you're gonna go with a couple of wide receivers

307
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: in the first three rounds. This is a very good

308
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: running back number two that you could take in the

309
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: fourth or fifth round. That's why I like Rashana Jennings.

310
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you His speed, his ability, his power out

311
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: of the out of the gate, to me is incredible

312
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: for the New York Giants and they're gonna meet that

313
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: in Big mcado's offense, all right, I don't know. I

314
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: look at Andre Williams and I see a guy who's

315
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: gonna fil potentially that Brandon Jacobs role is kind of

316
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: a hammer there is he potentially a flex guy or

317
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: at least a fantasy vulture to watch out. He very

318
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: could well become a flex guy because of the way

319
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: that that offense is running for the Giants. You look

320
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: at the way Eli Manning is struggled. It says to me,

321
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to run the ball, probably a lot

322
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: more than they want to. And I was, as much

323
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: as I like rashand Jennings, they gotta bring in Andre

324
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: Williams to come in there and kind of spell him,

325
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: get his opportunities become the guy at the goal line too.

326
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: So I really like him. And plus he's talking smack

327
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: with Rex Ryan. That's already already. That's good. You can

328
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: keep up. It's a small intangibles that when you're in

329
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: the tenth the leventh round, you go like, you know what,

330
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: I like, this kid's on my squad. Now you mentioned

331
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: Eli Manning. That of course brings us to his wide receivers.

332
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz being chief among them. And we're looking at

333
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: the a DPS where you see where Victor Cruz is

334
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: going forty four. You're talking about Victor Cruz there in

335
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: the middle round, but look at the guys coming after him.

336
00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: And Keenan Allen was uting for Daryl Patterson's like he's

337
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: points to break down. Roddy White is the guy who

338
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: could produce. Let's talk about Victor Cruz in terms of

339
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: what is coming after him. And I know, Adam, you

340
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: are not big on the Salsa kingdish, and we have

341
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: some real talk here on I understand you look at

342
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: that everybody's dropped all five of those guys. I would

343
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: rather have any of those five guys than Victor Cruz.

344
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: The thing about Victor Cruiz is you're familiar with him.

345
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: He's cool, he's smiling, he's got he's got a lot

346
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: of commercials, commercials, he does a cool dance. So you

347
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: draft him, and then he just sticks on your roster

348
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: all year and does nothing. If you look over the

349
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: last couple of year, he didn't score a touchdown and

350
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: like his last twelve games, but he's on your roster

351
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: because he's Victor Cruz, and you can't bring yourself to

352
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 1: drop him. If there was any other curtain jerkor you

353
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: had on your roster, you would drop him if he

354
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: wasn't producing. But Victor Cruz, I love him. He's a

355
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: great guy. Adam. This is where I'm gonna have to

356
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: ask you to forgive him. Okay, that was last season.

357
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: This year, the New York Giants, they have a new

358
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, Ben McAdoo. He's going to be employing the

359
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: West Coast offense with an up tempo look to it.

360
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: So what does that mean? That means E line manning

361
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz have to get on the same page because

362
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 1: everything is predicated on timing. So if they get the

363
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 1: timing and their routs together, defensive backs are gonna have

364
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: a hard time stopping Victor Cruz. I think he could

365
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: have a good year. That is going to be one

366
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: of the burning questions in the all Right, coming up

367
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: on NFL Fantasy Live, we're going back to backs. It's

368
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 1: a debate on running back any Lacy or Marshawn Lynch.

369
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: First round decision. You've been waiting for us to answer.

370
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: And Ball had summer playing, summer loving having a blast

371
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: ball our Fantasy crushes may have been a thing of

372
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: the past. To play a little game called real thing

373
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: or summer flaying. When we return, I think you can't

374
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,280

380
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: if you were on the beach anywhere. That's what all

381
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: far works the beach. Actually, my buddy got pulled over

382
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: by the cop and was drafting while he was writing

383
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: his ticket for speeding. How about that that that's a

384
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: that's a true believer. Alright. If you're like Adam Rank,

385
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: you know all too well about summer flings. So in

386
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: this segment, we're calling that's right. I said, we're calling

387
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 1: summer flaying a real thing. We take a look at

388
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 1: some players who had tons of buzz this summer and

389
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 1: asked the question, are they the real thing, as in

390
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: good long term fantasy production or are they a summer

391
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: fling a player who looked good on paper. But now

392
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 1: that we're heading out of summer looking not so great.

393
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna begin with Zach Stacy. He was

394
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: a fantasy m VP for a lot of managers. Last

395
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: year he was a stud. But can he repeat his

396
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 1: production from last year? Marcus, you know what, we had

397
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: a good thing going for a while, Zac, But I

398
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,199
Speaker 1: think it's time that we have say goodbye a summer flats.

399
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: I think it is. It's a summer fling with Za.

400
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: Looks Sam Bradford is healthy. He's back again. They're gonna

401
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: use a lot of the passing game. We talked about

402
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 1: the wide receivers. They have their plus Zack Stacy got

403
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: a lot of this reduction last year by circumstance. A

404
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: lot of guys were injured, a lot of guys fell

405
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: by the wayside, and Zack Stacey was originally about the

406
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: fourth or fifth guy on that depth chart. I don't

407
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 1: see him getting the same number of touches this year

408
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: as he did in twenty thirteen. Eric Decker te yards

409
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 1: eleven touchdowns last year, and Denver, he goes to New

410
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: York fling a real thing for the Jets. Uckbar. Oh no, no,

411
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: that's my summer frilling. That's it. I got what I

412
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 1: needed out of Eric Decker last year. Okay, but I

413
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 1: mean we already know it was well documented for the

414
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: New York just what they needed. They needed a wide

415
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 1: receiver because they were they were starving at the position.

416
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: They went out and got Eric Decker. But here's the thing.

417
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: For Eric Decker, he's being downgrade at the quarterback position.

418
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: None of those quarterbacks for the New York jett stand

419
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 1: so he's not going to get that same type of

420
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 1: reduction because there are no other wide receivers on that

421
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: roster but him. In Jacksonville, they added Adrian Peterson's long

422
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: time back up until the Gerhardt unproven lots of buzz,

423
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: Rank Flinger real thing, I'm gonna say, real thing. Even

424
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: though he and I grew up in the Inland Empire,

425
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 1: way outside of the beach. He's gonna be a real

426
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 1: thing there. And dude, I like this guy coming in

427
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,239
Speaker 1: and taking over the job. To me, it reminds me

428
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: but what Michael Turner did when he backed up Ladinian

429
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: Thomas and for so many years was able to go up,

430
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: get a job of his own and really flourish. You

431
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: see this guy, he's good inside, he's good outside. He

432
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 1: catches the ball, he runs it up the gut. He

433
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: runs it so strong there he is stuff like that,

434
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: if what we're gonna get out of him? And plus

435
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: who's backing him up down there? I don't. I don't

436
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: first see Jordan Todman coming in and taking any of

437
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't quickly. I know you're not as

438
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,719
Speaker 1: high as Adam Rink on Toby Gerhart, but I like

439
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: Toby Gearhart, but I just don't think he's going to

440
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 1: be that guy for for the Jaguars in Cleveland. Terence West,

441
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: the unknown rookiet of House and rank. You can't comment here, Marcus.

442
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 1: Should we buy the hype train? I really thought this

443
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: was gonna blossom into a fantastic fantasy romance. I am

444
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 1: not quite so big on it anymore. It looks like

445
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 1: Ben Tate has kind of earned that job as the

446
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: number one there in Cleveland. But I'll say this turns West,

447
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not gonna lose your phone number. Bishop Saki,

448
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 1: the rookie at Washington right after the draft. Everybody was

449
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 1: high on this guy in terms of fantasy production rank.

450
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: Are you still high on Bishop sank Not as much?

451
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 1: One of the first questions I had about Bishop Sanky

452
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 1: was his past bro because the one game I really

453
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: saw him in college, he was blown up by Oregon.

454
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: But then everybody told me Daniel Jeremiah every He's like,

455
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: no, no no, no, he's good. He's good, he can and

456
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 1: then this preseason he hasn't been as good as advertised.

457
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: And then I saw him getting blown up and passed pro.

458
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: And now I can't trust the guy. He's probably gonna

459
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: go a little bit too high in the in the

460
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: draft you see right there, seventh round. That's too rich

461
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: for me. I'll take it to you. I'd rather have

462
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: Terence West, to be honest with you, because at the end,

463
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: you know you would at the end of the series,

464
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: I told you I would get in. Ence will not

465
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: stop me. You can run all the Bishop Sanky video.

466
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: I'll be easy to talk about Terence West, all right.

467
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: I like it. Listen, Golden Tate goes from one of

468
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,239
Speaker 1: the most run heavy offenses in the league to one

469
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 1: of the most past crazy in Detroit at least last year. Look,

470
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: they got a new head coach and Jim called, well off,

471
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: bar Is take a fantasy fling or real thing. Well,

472
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 1: you just said he's the real thing because he's in

473
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 1: the past happy offense. And then he's got Calvin Johnson,

474
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 1: who's gonna demand a lot of attention. Whenever you have

475
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: a dominant number one like Calvin Johnson on any roster,

476
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 1: it's going to allow that number two guys to get

477
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: with it and Golden take He knows how to be

478
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: productive when his opportunity in his time is called. But

479
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: let me ask you this Jim called well when we

480
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: saw him in Indy, Uh, they ran a very balanced attack.

481
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 1: You know, Schwartz has gone in Detroit. Any concerned they're

482
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 1: not just for golden tape? What how about for Calvin

483
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: Johnson as well? Well, No, you're going to go towards

484
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: your your threat. I mean Calvin Johnson is the producer.

485
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: He's going to be the guy bringing the milk for

486
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 1: the offense. So by that you're going to have Golden

487
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: Tate who's going to be able to be the benefactor

488
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: of a lot of the stuff that's not going towards

489
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson. Adam Mink, let's go around the horn very quickly.

490
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: The biggest real thing for you? Who are the biggest

491
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 1: real thing? Uh? Carols West for me, I believe what

492
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: I said. I believe he's gonna take over that job

493
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: and be very good this year. And Marcus Grant, well,

494
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: he's I was I'm big on Big. I'll go with

495
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: Vonte Freeman as well. I think he's really picking up

496
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: steam down. Yes on that guy as well. Yeah, I'll

497
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: tell you my big real thing is gonna be Cordeiro Patterson.

498
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: I he's going to come on somewhere. And for me,

499
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: I love the a DP of Michael Floyd. I think

500
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: he's gonna go crazy this year. I really do. I

501
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: like him. I'm gonna talk about him in a little bit.

502
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: I won't let you know which way I'm going, but

503
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: I like Alright, coming up after the break, we're looking

504
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 1: beyond Friday. The Saturday's preseason matchups are experts share their

505
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: favorite games along basically what to watch for as well.

506
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: NFL Fancy Live is in the house. Those kids are

507
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 1: stealing our cows. All right, welcome back, everybody. Sadly, we're

508
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: out of our swimwear pretty quick too. Like all right,

509
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: we already took a look at some of Friday's games,

510
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: but since we don't have NFL Fancy Live this weekend,

511
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,199
Speaker 1: let's take a look at some of Saturday's preseason schedule

512
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: for a Week three there you see Buccaneers at Bill's Titans, Falcon.

513
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: Some really interesting teams out here, and of course tons

514
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,199
Speaker 1: and tons and tons of fantasy assets as well. All Right,

515
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: the Saints versus the Colts, Marcus truly an embarrassment of

516
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: riches when we're talking about fantasy assets. But you're gonna

517
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: go super deef on me here, Uh, talk to me

518
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 1: about what you're looking for in this matchup. I'm looking

519
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: for how Keem Nicks. I know the Colts have a

520
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: lot of receivers, They've got t Y Hilton and Reggie Wayne,

521
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 1: But how Keem Nick showed me something last week? He

522
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 1: obviously had an awful season last year with the Giants,

523
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: didn't score a touchdown, but he looked really good against

524
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: the Giants last week. And I'm watching to see if

525
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: it was an anomaly, if he was just fired up

526
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 1: to play his old team, or if he really has

527
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,679
Speaker 1: something going with Andrew Luck. There are a lot of

528
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 1: targets to go around there, and if Nicks can pick

529
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: up a few, that's gonna help his value. Very interesting.

530
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 1: We know the talent was at least there early on

531
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: for New York. We'll see if that can translate. Uh.

532
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,400
Speaker 1: For the Colts apart, talk to me about Tennessee versus Atlanta,

533
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: Jacquiz Rodgers, DeVante free Men. Who should people be targeting

534
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 1: as a handcuff to Steven Jackson, Well, it has to

535
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: be to me, DeVonta Freeman. He's the clear cut winner

536
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: in this situation because when I look at Steven Jackson,

537
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: I'm really nervous because he hasn't had an opportunity to

538
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,199
Speaker 1: get out on the field. But when you look at

539
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: Devonte Freeman, you see a guy five eight two d

540
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: plus pounds, has built tough like a Ford, and he's

541
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: got that mentality and the way he's been running that stretch.

542
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: He has the patients that the running back needs, the

543
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 1: vision to stretch, stretch and bull make that cut. He's

544
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: a one cut type of guy. And then he can

545
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: show his ability as he's doing right there, showing his

546
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 1: ability to run run routes and catch the ball. That

547
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: was a nice little will route there. DeVonta Freeman is

548
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: my guy. Let me follow up with you here, Devontae.

549
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: When I ask you DeVonta Freeman versus Jock Quiz Rogers,

550
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 1: I think the fan at home is gonna look at

551
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: both those guys that are built similarly. They kind of

552
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 1: run similarly as well. But you really are strong. I'm friendly.

553
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 1: He's more durable than Jock Quiz Rodgers. Jock Quiz Rogers

554
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: a change up type of running back. He is your

555
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: every down back. You're gonna get that out of Freeman,

556
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: all right, Marcus. The Vikings are taking on the Chiefs again.

557
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 1: Lots of interesting players here, but I want you to

558
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: throw a little coal into that. Travis Kelsey, get your

559
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: shovels running. Look, Travis Kelsey has shown me something in

560
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks. First off, the guy has

561
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 1: some wiggle to him. I mean, you watch him catch

562
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: the football. He makes guys miss after the catch. He

563
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: obviously has the two big long catch and runs for touchdowns.

564
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: I mean watch him here, the way the way he

565
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: breaks tackles. The Chiefs don't have a lot of consistent

566
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: pass catchers. I mean, they've got Dwayne Bow but he's

567
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: been so up and down. They are needing another guy

568
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: to give Alex Smith an outlet target there. Travis Kelsey

569
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 1: could be the guy. I talked to Gil Brandt, by

570
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 1: the way, and he's coming up on NFL dot Com

571
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 1: very soon. But he described Kelsey as being like a

572
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 1: seven ft three center playing against five ft ten inch kids.

573
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what it means, but I love it

574
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: sounds right. He saw the last clip right there too,

575
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 1: where he's out running the secondary. He's not out running

576
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 1: a linebacker and a mismatch. He's out running the secondary

577
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: and that's important. All right, rank Let's stay with you

578
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: Houston versus Denver. You know I love me some second

579
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: year whilee receivers. Can you build the hype train for

580
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins? For DeAndre Hopkins was fantastic last season, but

581
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 1: the thing that derailed him with the quarterback play. But

582
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: I look for him to have another strong year to

583
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: build on that. Even if Ryan Fitzpatrick is there, he's

584
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: still gonna be able to have the ability to go

585
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: out and put together a strong season because look at

586
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: what Josh Gordon did last year with the cavalcade of

587
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 1: terrible quarterbacks that he played with. I mean, they were

588
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: running out all these sorts of curtain jerkers and mid

589
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: card jobbers, and Josh Gordons still went out there, had

590
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: one of the best game or had one of the

591
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: best seasons of a second year receiver in recent memory,

592
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: and now DeAndre Hopkins is gonna do it. I'm I

593
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 1: don't want to tip my hand on Andre Johnsons, and

594
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about that next. But I if I

595
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: had to have one of those two, Houston, I don't

596
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: want to spoil it. But DeAndre Hopkins he's he's, he's

597
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 1: solid wrestling references as well, all right. Next on NFL

610
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: and it's time now for Like dislike, presented by Corona.

611
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: Every week I published my likes and dislikes and sports

612
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: TV movies so much more. Think about this. The Angels

613
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: swept the Red Sox, Sina got squads. You better believe

614
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: I have an opinion on all of that. But let's

615
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: deal with the fantasy football right now, and hone in

616
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: on the receiver position, and we start with Antonio Brown. Now,

617
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: if you've looked at our ad piece, the Steelers receivers

618
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 1: going off the board in the third round in most drafts,

619
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 1: and I have one question for you people, what is

620
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: your damage? The only receiver better than him in the

621
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: second half of the year was Josh Gordon. Now, Brown

622
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: finished seventh overall among receivers last year, and he was

623
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: targeted a ton. But with a bunch of new faces

624
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: at receiver for Roethlisberger, Brown could be targeted even more.

625
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 1: So make sure you take Brown in the second round.

626
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: Next up is Roddy White. Let me tell you, Roddy's

627
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: one of us. He battled injuries last year, but he

628
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: let us fantasy enthusiasts know by saying, Hey, look, if

629
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: I don't practice, don't play me. And we followed his

630
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: advice and when he did return, he was amazing. Right,

631
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 1: was one of the most targeted receivers in December last year.

632
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: And with Tony Gonzalez gone, who do you think picks

633
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 1: up that production? Well, yeah, it's Roddy. Seriously, why what

634
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,239
Speaker 1: do you think about a that up? And let's go

635
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: on one more like I'm gonna go with my guy

636
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: Michael Ford. There is a changing of the guard in Arizona.

637
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald is now the gutty moved the chain guy.

638
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,959
Speaker 1: But the big play guy will be Floyd. We saw

639
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: it last year. There was a three game stretch when

640
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 1: he went up against the Jackson Colts of the Eagles.

641
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 1: He had and fifteen points. That's just a sampling of

642
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: what's to come. The dude's amazing and he's coming up

643
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: the board in the night round. And actually, if you

644
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 1: get a team with Brown, White and Floyd, you're gonna

645
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: be winning a lot of games. Now, time to get

646
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: down a little bit. There's one receiver I don't like

647
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: this year, and it's Drey Johnson. I was a little

648
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 1: puzzled the good folks at Madden gave him such a

649
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: high player rating this year. I don't see it. I mean, look,

650
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: he gets targeted a ton, he does catch a lot

651
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: of action, but he just doesn't get into the end zone.

652
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: And he's got a similar ADP to a guy like

653
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: Roddy and I have. And I had to choose between them,

654
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: I'd go with the guy with a better quarterback. I

655
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: go with Roddy. So there you go. For more of that,

656
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 1: check out NFL dot com slash Like Dislike And this

657
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: was presented by on It with that, James, I throw

658
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: it over to you, all right, Adam Rank James co

659
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: here with Bara Bia Miller and Marcus Grant. Time for

660
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 1: some player comparison is presented by SAP. We're gonna start

661
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: with some well known fantasy running back, some well known

662
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: and well respected commodities. Eddie Lacey versus Marshawn Lynch. Who

663
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 1: do you got? I got Eddie Lacey, And I think

664
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: Marshall Lynch will have a decent season, but I worry

665
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: about the workload he's had over the last few years,

666
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: more than carries in the past three season. Usually that

667
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: precedes a fall. And I think Eddie Lacey is a

668
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: guy who's up and coming. He's a younger guy, he

669
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: gets a lot more work in the Packer back field.

670
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you the concern from me with Marshawn Lynches.

671
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: We know that for a while now he's been flirting

672
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,959
Speaker 1: with the idea of retirement, and we know that he

673
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: has some issues. But you know, you look at him,

674
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: you know that he's gonna run hard. But there's that thing,

675
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: is he going to hit that wall? And you want

676
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: to get off? And I saw Bill Polian do this.

677
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: Of course, even with Marshall fault, there's a certain time

678
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: where you want to come off of a running back

679
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: and say, all right, this guy is getting ready to

680
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: hit the wall. He has a lot of yards and

681
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: him we know that even as a defensive player, when

682
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: a guy just starts dragging, Marshawn Lynch looked like he's

683
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 1: one of those guys. I like Eddie Lacey. What do

684
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: you like specifically about Eddie Lacey. We know that since

685
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: Week seven of last year he had ten rushing touchdowns. Man,

686
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: there's a lot to like about this young play. What

687
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: I like about Eddie Lacy in comparison to Marshall Lynches.

688
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: And he's younger, so you know that he's got a

689
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: lot of miles to give to the Green Bay Packers.

690
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 1: But on top of that, he's got a better set

691
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: of unit around him. He's got Jordy Nelson Randall cop

692
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: So you know they're not going to be able to

693
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: stack eight in the box against Eddie Lacey because Aaron

694
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: Rodgers got a live arm. He can throw on strawberry

695
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: through a battleship too. He can. He can do that

696
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: find his wide receivers. So that's going to give Eddie

697
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: Lacy the lanes and the holes that he needs to

698
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: hit in. Heale have a bigger year than more so

699
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: than he did last year. He's gonna go double digit

700
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: touchdowns like a waste of good strawberry. All right, let's

701
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: let's stay with some aging running backs here. Look, the

702
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 1: writing has been on the wall since the Reagan administration.

703
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: When it comes to Frank Moore, it seems like every

704
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: year we're talking about this guy's gonna see a decline,

705
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: and every year he's healthy, he plays, he produces. Is

706
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: this finally the year last year when Frank board turned thirty,

707
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: everybody got nervous and I said, no, Frank Gore has

708
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:09,959
Speaker 1: got one more good year and him stick with him.

709
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: This is the year that Frank Gore has the climb begins.

710
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: The walls are starting to close in on him. He's

711
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,479
Speaker 1: been so good for so long, but the Niners are

712
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: gonna start to throw it up a little bit more

713
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: this year, now that they have the extra weapons there

714
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: and Colin Kaepernick is once again back and developing a

715
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: little bit more. Plus you got Carlos Hide knocking on

716
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 1: the door. There's the Niners realized they need to start

717
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: transitioning to a new running back. I think this is

718
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: the year you start to see Frank Moore maybe take

719
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of a step back. He'll still be

720
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: produce a prective running back, maybe a low nd RB

721
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: tour reflex guy. He just won't give you the same

722
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 1: kind of numbers he has in the past. It's been

723
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: a long time since I worked out with Frank Gore,

724
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: but I remember spending time with him. Nobody hits the

725
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: off season harder than Frank Gore. I believe that he's

726
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 1: going to be still productive this year. Marcus Krantz, would

727
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: you rather have Frank Gore or this man? C? C J.

728
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: T K. Even though we're not right right exactly calling

729
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,239
Speaker 1: point nine kings right, I actually probably would go with

730
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 1: with Chris Johnson shoe I think because the Jets obviously

731
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 1: they like to do the ground and pound thing. But

732
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: on top of that, Chris Johnson, I get the feeling,

733
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 1: will line up on the field with Chris Ivory at

734
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: the same time this year. He can run it. Obviously,

735
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: we know that we know what he can do there.

736
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: But they're gonna split them out. They're gonna throw the

737
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: ball to him. He may line up in the slot occasionally.

738
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: They're gonna be a lot of varied opportunities for Chris.

739
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 1: Let me let me at this. Here's what the dispensive

740
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:21,799
Speaker 1: coordinator is gonna do. When they look at the New

741
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: York Giants, They're gonna look at them and said, Okay,

742
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: they've got Eric Decker, Okay, solid wide receiver. Who else

743
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: do they have there to to help them in the

744
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: passing game? They don't have another wide receiver. So it's

745
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 1: gonna be very easy to stack up against Chris Johnson.

746
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,400
Speaker 1: He's gonna get frustrated. We're gonna see some of the

747
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: same old habits that we saw. We know that they

748
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: try to get that offensive line together, but I don't

749
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 1: think that there is gonna be as easy for Chris Johnson.

750
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 1: I just don't see it. You like Frank or over

751
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: Chris Johnson. Come on, all right, let's talk about PPR machines.

752
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: We got Shane Vereen, my boy out of cal versus

753
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead. I haven't got to throw it in there

754
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: a little bit. Plus our college team is down this year?

755
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 1: Can I can I sell the shaverin or Danny Woodhead?

756
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: Marcus will start with you, do you like I'm going

757
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: Shane Vereen here? And I do that because I think

758
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: he's in a better situation. He's in a situation where

759
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: the Patriots I don't know how much they trust their

760
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: other running bats. We know that Stephen Ridley is always

761
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 1: one fumble away from ending of back on the bench.

762
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 1: We talked about James White about a week or so ago,

763
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,359
Speaker 1: but watching him on film, he looks sluggish, He looks indecisive.

764
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna take a while to develop. Verene

765
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: Obviously we know what he does as a pass catcher.

766
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 1: He may end up running the football as well. When

767
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: it's all said and done. How can you pick Shane Veren?

768
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: You you have a hashtag it's called bellatrix. I don't

769
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,439
Speaker 1: get it. This sense, he seems a muns of Bela tricks.

770
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: When you look at what we did last year after

771
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: missing a good portion of the season, and we still average,

772
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: you know, seven yards per touch, miss eight games, but

773
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 1: still was one of the best money backs. I think

774
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 1: we're missing it because Danny Woodhead, to me, is the

775
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 1: key here. Because Danny Woodhead is so versatile, versatile that

776
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 1: you can use him in multiple looks, and that's what

777
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: makes him so dangerous. You can line them up as

778
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: a tough boy and put him in the backfield and

779
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: let him run. He'll hit it because he hides well

780
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: behind the offensive offensive linement to pensive line. They have

781
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,879
Speaker 1: a hard time finding him. And then when he gets

782
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 1: out there in open space, Oh, he makes it happen.

783
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,879
Speaker 1: He makes it happen. I like Danny Woodhead over Jane Buring.

784
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to call him a mini Darren Sproles,

785
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: but because they're about the same size, about about five five.

786
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: But when I look at Danny Woodhead, he does a

787
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: lot of what Darren Sprowls is called wiggle wig wig wiggle.

788
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,520

Speaker 1: Fabiano here from NFL Fantasy Live. We're in front of

806
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 1: Bush Stadium in St. Louis in anticipation of Adam Wayne

Speaker 1: all over the country has shown up to play with us.

811
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,919
Speaker 1: We're gonna be helping charities across the board with many

812
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: people who need help. It's just very rewarding today. By

813
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: the way, by your participation alone here in St. Louis,

814
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,879
Speaker 1: nearly has been raised. It's really been a fun way

815
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 1: for me to engage h sometimes with the fans, and

816
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: then obviously now to be able to uh to do

817
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: it and be a part of it for charity and

818
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 1: to raise money for a good cause. I mean, okay,

819
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 1: I bought him. I'll be a life for him. I

820
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 1: kind of mixed fantasy football and real football. I get

821
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: I like, I like, you know, the subs, the bottom players.

822
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 1: That's how I do it. We're gonna auction off before

823
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: we start drafting to the highest bidder can have Michael

824
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: Fabiano as their consultant during the draft today, skry, what's

825
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: the bidding start out? I'm assulted. I need all the

826
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,880
Speaker 1: help I can get. I was reigned in at the

827
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 1: very last minute to do this, so the person I'm

828
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: filling in for I'll be passing on the bill to him.

829
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: She actually used someone else's money to bid on me

830
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 1: to help her. Tell me your draft strategy, mostly running

831
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 1: backs first, the going to the receiver's good man's l

832
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 1: as earlier as possible. I got eleven other people sitting

833
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 1: over here looking for that scattering report right now, so

834
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm not giving it. Find help from somebody who knows

835
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,839
Speaker 1: what they're doing. Your first two picks were running backs,

836
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 1: and you were a running back. This is what I'm saying.

837
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: Kurt keeps texting me during the draft asking me who

838
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: he should draft. I'm just kind of letting them know

839
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: who I got, and you know I need that. I

840
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: need that pad on the bat because I really have

841
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: no idea what I'm doing. He will ticks me during

842
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,959
Speaker 1: the regular season and tell me that I was wrong.

843
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: He didn't give me any credit when I actually make

844
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,799
Speaker 1: one right. But if I'm wrong, forget about it. You

845
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: had the first that he took to Marco Murray. Well,

846
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,359
Speaker 1: I'm trying to win this league, so I thought he'd

847
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 1: give me my best chance. This is this is gonna

848
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: provide bragging rights and topic of conversation for the rest

849
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 1: of the year. So glad to glad to go ahead

850
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 1: and get this done For Pete after me. I'm Kurt

851
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 1: Warner and I love fantasy football. I'm Kurt Warner and

852
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:35,359
Speaker 1: I played fantasy football. Come on, this has been a

853
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: fantastic cause and it really shows the growth of fantasy

854
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: football not only is just a hobby, but it's something

855
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 1: that brings people together for a very worthy cause. Oh man,

856
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: that was good stuff. Michael Fabriana joins us Live now

857
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: from New York. FABS. That had to have been pretty fun, man,

858
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: Talk to me about what was your favorite part about

859
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 1: that whole situation. Well, I just love the fact that

860
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 1: something I'm so passionate about fantasy football can turn into

861
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: such a great event that is such uh such a

862
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 1: worthy cause, Big League Impact dot orgs, these baseball players,

863
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: these big name guys playing fantasy football with the fans

864
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 1: for charity. It's just another reason why fantasy football is

865
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 1: the greatest thing ever. James, it's the best for your services.

866
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: That seems like an awfully Steve price pal. I couldn't

867
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 1: believe that. I know. Well, here's what happened. Someone had

868
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 1: been five hundred, and then it got the six hundred,

869
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: and then it kind of slowed, and then Kurt been

870
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: a thousand and then someone else eleven hundred, So Kurt

871
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 1: helped get the bidding a little higher than it may

872
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: have gone. Thank you, Kurt, alright, very good, Thank you

873
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: so much, Michael Fabiano, And of course you can visit

874
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: the website big League impact dot org. All right, so

875
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: we just saw FABS, Kurt Warner, and Marshall Falk partake

876
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 1: in this fantasy draft for Adam Wayne. Right, you know,

877
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 1: FABS will take a quarterback late in his respective drafts.

878
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,720
Speaker 1: But for you guys, what are some strategies or tips

879
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 1: you have for drafting Adam. We're gonna start with you.

880
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: You've got something called we're not talking about. Like some

881
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: night you're sitting at home, you're watching the Purge and

882
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 1: then boom, Varsity Blues is on, and you gotta be

883
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: ready to adapt. You gotta go because Ali Larger is

884
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 1: now in that scene that she doesn't want to talk

885
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,760
Speaker 1: about it. So you gotta be ready to adapt and overcome.

886
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: So here's what you do when you're drafting. You go

887
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: through there's four running backs who are going on the

888
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 1: tough one. We can pretty much agree on that. You're

889
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 1: sitting at five eight. You gotta have six guys ready

890
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 1: to go. And be ready to do anything like, do

891
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 1: I gotta go quarterback right here? Boom, I'll do that?

892
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: Am I going Jimmy grahmm at seven and coming back

893
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 1: with da Marius Thomas? I have to do that? Or

894
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 1: if you know what, you could end up being in

895
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: a position where let's say Eddie Lacy falls to you

896
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,359
Speaker 1: and then you take a running back again. You could

897
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 1: go back old school. So be ready for any situation

898
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,319
Speaker 1: that's thrown out at you. This is what happens when

899
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 1: you try to delve into the mind of Marcus. You

900
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: have you out. A great article for NFL dot com

901
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 1: is the era of the running back? Running back situation

902
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,760
Speaker 1: dead for fantasy owners. But now let me say FABI

903
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 1: is gone. Right. You want to say you're good. You

904
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,520
Speaker 1: don't have to take a running back in the first round.

905
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 1: If you're in the top four spots, sure you get

906
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 1: one of those top four guys and you go with it.

907
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: But if you're sitting there at seven or eight, don't

908
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: see you forced to take a running back when Jimmy

909
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,240
Speaker 1: Graham or Calvin Johnson or Peyton Manny might be sitting

910
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:27,359
Speaker 1: out there. All right. So for myself, I think if

911
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 1: you're passing on sleepers late round uh in favor of

912
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 1: an established older name. I think that's a mistake. An

913
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: Kwan Bolden would be a perfect example. Don't take an

914
00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,320
Speaker 1: Kwan Bolden in the fifteenth round, take a sleeper, and

915
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,719
Speaker 1: I think prices are the profits will pay. Bar How

916
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 1: about yourself? A draft strategy for me? Well, I'll tell

917
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: you one thing. I'm not taking to Marco Murray with

918
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: the first take that, but it's really understanding. Like Marshall

919
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,919
Speaker 1: Falk said, that's that San Diego State Education. You guys,

920
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 1: that San Diego State Education says, look at the bottom half,

921
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: because that's going to be the meat of your roster.

922
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: Things are going to happen in the NFL. So if

923
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,280
Speaker 1: you know thyself, you shall never fear a thousand battle.

924
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: So if you know the bottom half of the draft,

925
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:11,840
Speaker 1: of your of the draft, then all of a sudden,

926
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:13,600
Speaker 1: now they give you a chance to win your league

927
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 1: like I'm going to do when I beat Adam and

928
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,400
Speaker 1: take the championship. How many years are we gonna go?

929
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:25,359
Speaker 1: I'm just the warrior poets. Thank you, all right, let's

930
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 1: gonna do it for us. Today we're back with even

931
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 1: more fantasy on Monday, we're gonna dive into the Sunday

932
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 1: night matchups and take our fantasy two a day adventures
