10
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,959
Speaker 1: and we're stepping it up. Would be a little bit

11
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,639
Speaker 1: mad if you saw what we call the United Room

12
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: here at the NFL. We don't even have one picture

13
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: on the wall. We do have a drier race board

14
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 1: that doesn't even have any like XS and os. Well

15
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: you can you can diagram the forty six defense for

16
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: us and write it up there could because that has

17
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: so much fantasy application. But they Fantasy News. We talked

18
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: about it today guys on on NFL Fantasy Live and

19
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com, NFL Network. Michael Vick. He says he's

20
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: going to play Andy Reid is playing this whole. Well,

21
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: we'll kind of wait and see, we'll monitor him as

22
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: the week goes on. Michael Vick says, I'm out there, Fabs.

23
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: Can you trust him this week? If he is my quarterback?

24
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: Unless I was lucky enough to draft Matthew Stafford, I'm

25
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: playing him. It's Michael Vick. He was the top quarterback

26
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: and Fantasy football last year. You can't predict injuries, although

27
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: it seems to be a little easier when it comes

28
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: to Michael Vick. But if he is your quarterback and

29
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: you don't have a legitimate and I'm talking about legitimate

30
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: number two, like I'm Matt Stafford, I'm playing him. Well,

31
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cite Michael Fabiano against Michael Fabiano because one

32
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: of the things you mentioned heartily in our preview shows

33
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: and stuff in first week of Fantasy Live when people

34
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: were still like retro drafting and everything, was that Michael Vick,

35
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: you do have to it's buy or beware with with

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: the injuries and so it's no surprise. And Jason, how

37
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: many times have we seen it where a guy is

38
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: hurt at quarterback and he plays half the game. And

39
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: if if you if you're a fancy owner, and you're

40
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: sitting there, How mad are you're gonna be if Michael

41
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: Vick doesn't last and you had a viable option like

42
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: a Sanchez on your bench, a guy who's throwing for

43
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: three hundred yards now twice in three games. Yeah, that's

44
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: what I look at is that this is two weeks now.

45
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: Michael Vick has not been able to finish the game

46
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: all right, all of a sudden, His offensive line problems

47
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: aren't going to go away. They're helping him up more

48
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: than he's patting them on the back. I'm not convinced

49
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 1: that he's a hundred percent healthy. The Eagles, in a

50
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: football sense, have to put him out there because they're

51
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: one and two and everything has become about Michael Vick.

52
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: They can't get away from it, so they gotta put

53
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: him out there. I'm not confident that Vick is that guy.

54
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: So fantasy, there's you know we talked about on the

55
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: show today, there's like twelve guys that I would be

56
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: okay with putting out that I would be okay with

57
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 1: putting Sanchez out there this week. I think you make

58
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: a lot of plays on the Ravens defense. I'll be

59
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 1: okay with Chad Henny this week because he's throwing for

60
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: over three yards twice. Now, there's plenty of guys out

61
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: there that you can either pick up or your second

62
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: string guy. And I'm not saying played Devirus Jackson over

63
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: Michael Vick. But you have guys out there that you

64
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: could be more, uh, that you could be confident because

65
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 1: you know Michael Vick is gonna wind up being a

66
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,399
Speaker 1: close game time decision. Forget about playing Mike Kafka, forget

67
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: about Vince Young Fred. It's either Mike Vick or somebody else.

68
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: And I think your backup because at the depth of

69
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: quarterback is good enough that you can get by with that.

70
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: Can you know? I will say this that Vic has

71
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: one very strong thing in his corner, and that is

72
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: that Phil Costa is not his sinner. So we can

73
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: at least be guaranteed that that Vic is gonna at

74
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: least get the shotgun snap just fine. Again, I I

75
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: am of the ilk that I come to the dance

76
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: with who brough me? Okay, when I start Chad Henny

77
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: or Mark Sanchez over Michael Vick. Philosophically, guys, I can't

78
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: do it. I cannot get my hand on the mouse

79
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 1: to drag Rex Grossman, even though I like Rex Grossman

80
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: this week and replace Michael Vick. I just can't. Maybe

81
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: you guys are right. I'm the type of guy who

82
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: sticks with my studs, and I'm sticking with Michael Vick

83
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: this group. I think Michael Vick. What gets me going

84
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: forward is that, Do I think this is gonna be

85
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: this season where Michael Vick is gonna get past this

86
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: injury and he's gonna be healthy for the next twelve

87
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: or thirteen games. No, I don't think so. I think

88
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: if you have a guy who was knocked out of

89
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: the game twice the first three weeks, this is something

90
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: that he has a problem avoiding contact. He has a

91
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: problem avoiding his own team running into him. If he

92
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: played in the Cowboys, he'd get hurt when the snap

93
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 1: would h him in the head. So I don't see

94
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: this as being a season where, yeah, I'm confident in

95
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: Michael Vick going forward. In fact, if I have Vic

96
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: on my team right now, I try to trade him.

97
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: I try to sell as high as I can look

98
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: Vix coming back. If I'm a team that that I need,

99
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: I need a wide receiver and he number one running

100
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: back and he number, Why not I try to move

101
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: Mike Vick and say, Okay, I'll play one of these

102
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks and I'll move on. Hey, speaking of the Cowboys,

103
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: he just reminded me of another advantage that Vic has

104
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: on Sunday. They could they could ensure that he puts

105
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: up big fantasy points. He doesn't actually have to walk

106
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 1: over to Jason Navan and tell him where to line up. Yeah,

107
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: tell me about it. That's kind of nice. But as

108
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: speaking of wide receivers, obviously Jeremy Macklin has had a

109
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 1: hamstring issue. He participated in walkthroughs, but that sounds like

110
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: the classic game time decision to me. If he is active,

111
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: I'm playing him. The mat chip is very favorable. Deniers

112
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: have been terrible against the past this year. I think

113
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: Jeremy Mathin, if active, is the guy that you start.

114
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: If not as it too, then certainly as a three

115
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: or reflects another news item here talking about guys who

116
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,679
Speaker 1: are big names who are not having good seasons. Arian

117
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: Foster looks like he's back this week, but Gary Kubiak

118
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: is now saying that he is not going to see

119
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: the full workload in Week four against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Guys,

120
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: and to me, Foster, if he was a full go

121
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: and he was gonna see the full reps, he'd be

122
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: a guy that I'd start now against the Steelers. Are

123
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: we potentially talking about a split with Ben Tate? That

124
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: scares me. This is the worst news possible because you

125
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: want to either know as an owner, even if you

126
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: have Ben Tate, Okay, I'm not playing him this week,

127
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: and I gotta pick somebody else up. I gotta pick

128
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: up Kenel Hunter. I gotta go do something. But this

129
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: is this is the worst news. I think if you

130
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: have Foster the world, look, are you doing better at

131
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: a flex than play an Arian Foster? Probably not? So

132
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: you put Arian Foster back in. Ben Take, to me

133
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: is the big question. They wouldn't play Foster he wasn't healthy.

134
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: And I could see this is a game where Foster

135
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: shows his health as the game goes on, he can

136
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: get an increased workload. They'll spell him in the beginning

137
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: with bent Take and they'll wait and see what goes on.

138
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: But I don't know that I could put Bent Tait

139
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: and I think Foster goes in. For me, it a

140
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: flex and Bent Tate. I think I have to sit

141
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: this week. Well, you were talking about Michael dancing with

142
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: who Brong? Yet? Well, how many fantasy owners out there

143
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: spent a top three pick on Arian Foster? You were

144
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: one of them, right, I mean, and there's a lot

145
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: of people out there that I did it. Yeah, well,

146
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: I actually never got the chance because you ensured that

147
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: I picked tenth in our But you would have. I

148
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 1: would have. I would have. But I think if I'm

149
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 1: a Fantasy owner and I have Arian Foster on my team,

150
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: I am disgruntled man, because I just want to know

151
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: one way or the other. We just one way or

152
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: the other. Either he's playing and he's gonna get twenty

153
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: carries or he's not. With the news that I have

154
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: right now, I'm thinking about sitting him maybe Now I

155
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: agree with you, Jason. You need to have a very

156
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: viable commodity at the flex to sit Arian Foster. But

157
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: if you do, you sit Arian Foster. Yeah, well, you

158
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: just want the phone call from the girl to say, look,

159
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,239
Speaker 1: let me know, im I wasted my time or should

160
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: I keep calling you in buying new flowers something like that.

161
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: That's Elliot Harris. The women actually buy Harrison the flowers,

162
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: not the other way around. It. Is NFL Fantasy Live,

163

Speaker 1: up later on in the show, Jason Luck and for

166
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: NFL Network Inside will join us for all the latest news.

167
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: But speaking of latest news, you know, first we thought

168
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: we had the Green Bay running back situation under control. Right,

169
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 1: it was gonna be a timeshare. Okay. Now James Starks

170
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: is winning it. Okay, So now James Starks, we sit

171
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: Ryan Grant. Ryan Grant runs for ninety two yards last week.

172
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: We think, okay, Ryan Grant is gonna be that guy.

173
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy said, I want to get Ryan Grant Moore

174
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: touches this week. He's gonna get the football. But Fabs,

175
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: you've got breaking news in the last twenty minutes that says,

176
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: right now you may be going back to James Starks, right.

177
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy has already said on Wednesday that he does

178
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: not expect Ryan Grant to play with that. Bruce Kidney

179
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: and guys, if you have James Starks on your team,

180
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: and I know you co own a league with Michael

181
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: Lombardi from NFL Network You're you're sitting pretty right now

182
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: with James because you traded me, James, explain Ryan Grant

183
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: because he's playing the Denver Broncos who have an awful

184
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: run defense. So right off the top, guys, James Starks

185
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: a huge sleeper in Week four, I'd certainly played this

186
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: guy as a flex, maybe even a low end two

187
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: if he's seeing all of the carries in that offense

188
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: with Ryan Grants sideline James Stark's sleeper written all over

189
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: in Boys, Well, I'd say the most I solved inverse

190
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: front seven so far this year was Week one, which

191
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: is kind of unfair because they played the modern day

192
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: Eric Dickerson and Darren McFadden. Starks is not gonna have

193
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,079
Speaker 1: that kind of game. But I agree with Michael, you

194
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: know this is this is a good play at the flex.

195
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: I think you roll roll with Starks. Yeah, I think

196
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: going forward, And you gotta remember Mike McCarthy said, look,

197
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: I gotta get Ryan Grant the football more. We've been

198
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: waiting for one guy to seize this job. That looked

199
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 1: like Starks had the bit of an advantage over Ryan Grant.

200
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: Grant coming back from injury, so okay, But Stark's never

201
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 1: really broke through and never never we broke that door down.

202
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 1: So now here's Ryan Grant with the first real great

203
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 1: game from a Packers running back this year. So now

204
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: you know, going forward as long as this Bruce Kidney

205
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: is a one week thing, and it seems like it

206
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: will be a one week thing right now. I think

207
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: he got up. You ride James Starks this week, and

208
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 1: then unfortunately you're back to that time share next week,

209
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: which hey say, James Starks has a big week this week,

210
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: then then you're up, and then it's you're back to

211
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: where you're at. Another running back situation that we have

212
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 1: to also watch out for is in San Francisco, right

213
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: with Frank Gore. You know he's got the ankle injury.

214
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: It looked like he was gonna be a full go

215
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: according to Jim Harbaugh. But now Gore didn't practice on Wednesday.

216
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: Harbor maybe backing off, Maybe we see some kennel hunter guys.

217
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: I think this could be someone you pick up now

218
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: who could produce for you down the road. If Gore

219
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: is active, I play him against the Eagles. They're terrible

220
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: against the run. But if this is a split situation,

221
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: or if there is an issue with Gore. Kendall Hunter.

222
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 1: You want to talk about sleepers, Jason, He's a good one. Yeah,

223
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: he's a guy we talked about on the show today.

224
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: He's he's a really big sleeper for me this week.

225
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: Alfonso Smith is another one. We'll get to him later

226
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 1: on in the show. But look at what Frank Gore

227
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: has done this year. Okay, coming off hip surgery. He's

228
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: twenty eight years old. So for some reason the Niners say, oh,

229
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: we'll give you twenty one million dollars. Yeah, go ahead,

230
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: that's fine. Here he is he can't get through the holes.

231
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: He looks. Oh. He he just doesn't look like he's

232
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: the same Guy's averaging two and a half yards of carry.

233
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: I think as long as carry this year is eight yards.

234
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: He just is not the same guy. And I'm always

235
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: really hinky and wary of a running back who says,

236
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: right after a game is over, I was hurt. You know,

237
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: you let the coaches say that, you let other people

238
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 1: say that. So from a from a football into fantasy

239
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: standpoint to hear Jim Harball then say no, no, I

240
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 1: expect Frank Gore to be good to go. Their stuff

241
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: going on there they it's not gonna be long before

242
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 1: they turned the page to Kennel Hunter, who came in

243
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: last week only ran for three eight yards but did

244
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: have the touchdown. He's a guy with young legs. I

245
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,599
Speaker 1: think he's gonna wind up being the guy, and I

246
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: think Frank Gore the next couple of weeks loses his job.

247
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 1: You're saying that the Niners just gave Frank Grew this

248
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 1: money and they're gonna bench him. How long can you

249
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: go with two and a half yards of carry? I

250
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: don't see it interesting unless you're trying to get Andrew Luck. Yeah,

251
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: well that could be. That could be the caveat here?

252
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: You guys, who is his coach last year? Oh, Jim Harbaugh.

253
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: You know it's interesting to me is I was on

254
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: Dave Damage Football podcast Cheez had to Be a month ago,

255
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: and he's talked about Chris Johnson and Frank Gore being

256
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 1: the same situation for him. Uh, And I'm like, these

257
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 1: guys are not the same situation at all. Chris Johnson

258
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: came into the league in two thousand and eight and

259
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 1: he's taken a lot of glancing blows. But how often

260
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: have you seen c J really get blown up like

261
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: where he bucks it in in the tackles and takes

262
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 1: a lot of contact, whereas Frank Gore has taken a

263
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 1: beating since coming in to the league in two thousand five.

264
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: Those are a lot older legs, a lot more mileage

265
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: on them. And I don't want to say we're seeing

266
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: the end of the road with Frank Gore, but it's

267
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: not implausible. No. I think some guys are a young

268
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: twenty eight, some guys are an old twenty eight, and

269
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: Frank Gore easily is that because if I saw any

270
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: spark from the Niners this year, for any spark from

271
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: Frank Or, I would be okay. I say, okay, I'm

272
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: not even interesting in Frank Gore right now as a

273
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 1: by low candidate. If someone's looking, hey, I need a

274
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: wide receiver, I don't know that I even go out

275
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: and trade for Frank Or because what what's he given

276
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: you forty yards in the game? What if I offered

277
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: Thie Streets st if you threw in JJ Stokes, I

278
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: would do that deal in the second week and A

279
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: really talked about the street guys. Come on, but you know,

280
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,719
Speaker 1: actually we're referencing the forty Niners back they played the

281
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: Bengals last Sunday, and we should talk, said Benson. Uh,

282
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you wrote an article about Bernard Scott

283
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: being a you know, a good waiver pick up. But

284
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 1: looks like said Benson is gonna play and he's got

285
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: a very good matchup this week, a very good matchup.

286
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: So I really think the fact that Benson won't be

287
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: suspended this week great news for fantasy owners. I still

288
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: contend that Bernard Scott should be added in most leagues

289
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 1: because at some point Benson will be suspended. Maybe it's

290
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: one game, maybe it's two, maybe it's three. He's gonna

291
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: miss something. He's gonna miss some time. So you still

292
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: pick up Scott. But this week Benson against the Bills, Uh,

293
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: you You've got to play him as a tour reflex,

294
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 1: which makes Harrison very happy because he has him on

295
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: his family. Is my flex starter, and I love said

296
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: at the flex for plant our smashy Itis. You you

297
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: look at this Bengals team and now suddenly a team

298
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: we thought had zero weapons coming to the season. We

299
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:57,959
Speaker 1: didn't think Cedric Benson was going to be a guy

300
00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: because they're starting over with Andy Dalton. But slowly, now

301
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: what We've talked about the first three years of the

302
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals. You know a J. Green is worth picking up.

303
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,719
Speaker 1: He's worth a flex guy. Four Teen targets week two.

304
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: Okay had a toe injury slowed him down a little

305
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: bit last week. Now, we talked about Jermaine Gresham on

306
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: the show today, Fabs and You're High, and Jermaine Gresham

307
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 1: a guy that's getting a lot of targets. Suddenly, now

308
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals offense is the Cincinnati Bengals offense. Andy

309
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 1: Dalton's finding a way to get it done. He's got

310
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: more fantasy points than than half the quarterbacks in the

311
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: league right now. So suddenly this Bengals offense isn't just well,

312
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, but this will This will benefit Cedric

313
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: Benson because the more they can move the football, the

314
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: easier it's going to be for him to run. Because

315
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 1: they can't do it when they're just relying on Cedric Benson.

316
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: They need everything to fire from that. The problem with

317
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: the Bengals and teams like the Bengals is consistency. We

318
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: saw a J. Green have ten catches over a hundred

319
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown and he was the second coming

320
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: of Chris Collinsworth, and then the following week, which was

321
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: last week, he had a great matchup and he's stunk

322
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: too high, you know what. So that's the issue. They're

323
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: going to be some matchups where you're gonna want to

324
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 1: play these guys. But consistency on the Bengals team is

325
00:13:58,559 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: going to be an issue. And say you had a

326
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 1: us to hit a home run there. I thought you

327
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: were gonna say after the Collinsworth, I thought you're gonna say,

328
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: he has now the chance to be the second coming

329
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: of Peter Work. I was waiting for it. I was

330
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: waiting for it. Collinsworth over work all day long here

331
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: in the But the inconsistency. You go from Collinsworth one

332
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 1: week to Work the next. Peter Wark wasn't inconsistent. He

333
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: was bad. He drafted him and then they let him go.

334
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: And Lavernius Coles, who got kicked off the team for shoplifting,

335
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: had a better career than Peter Warrick did. NFL Fantasy Live,

Speaker 1: Kitaine and Rudy Sarzo and Ainsley dna Bar Yes, we

340
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: can go through the entire White Snake lineup line up.

341
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: But speaking of going through lineups, we're taking a look

342
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: at a lineup right now in fantasy football that has

343
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: Michael Vick as their starting quarterback but also has the

344
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: running back can Underham of Ryan Matthews and Mike Tilbert.

345
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: I'm speaking, of course, of Jason Lockin or NFL Network

346
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: insider who joins us now for all the latest fantasy news. Jason,

347
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: we heard earlier today Michael Vick your quarterback. He says

348
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: he wants to play on Sunday. We throwout alternatives from

349
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: Michael Vick. How concerned are you about vic for Sunday?

350
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: First of all, wait, was Rudy Sarzo and White Snake

351
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: after Quiet Ryot and I don't remember Rudy Sarzo being

352
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: a White Snake? Yes, Rudy, so he was in both videos.

353
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: He was in the is This Love video and was

354
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: in Here I Go Again, that's when Rudy stars doings

355
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 1: in the background. Yes he was. He was the guy

356
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: always point he would point his base towards the camera

357
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: in the video time and time again. That was his

358
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: only move I missed. I missed the head shot to him.

359
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: Then I guess that was too caught up with PHO. Yeah, yeah,

360
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: I think we'll go um yeah he I mean less,

361
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: like I said on Alia the Night, unless somebody runs

362
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: over his hand with their car or slams it in

363
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: a door or something crazy happens, that the swelling should

364
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: subside to a point where by Sunday he's playing. Can

365
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: he get through four quarters of football Sunday? Uh? That

366
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: that I cannot guarantee. What if he's dancing on the

367
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: hood during a white Snake video? I hope who the

368
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: benz is going really really swell? It was a Jaguar

369
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: was a jack all right? Jason so I, first off,

370
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna mention your bust in Red Sox. Let's

371
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: talk football continuously here, Ryan, I got I love Jason

372
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: lacafora he is one of my boys. But I'm a

373
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: Yankees fan. He's a Red Sox fan. So we have

374
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: this thing going on. I have to have to arrange

375
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: with him. Ryan Matthews. And this is a guy who

376
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: I loved last year. I guess I was a season

377
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: too soon on him. But now he's healthy, it looks

378
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: like he has become the featured back in San Diego.

379
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: Is this a situation that you see continuing going forward,

380
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: Matthews being the bell cow or at some point do

381
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: you see Mike Tilbert continuing to get those passing uh

382
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: those passing down snaps snaps during the near the goal line.

383
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: Is Matthew is going to be the guy I think

384
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: he is? I mean, in week one, I sat Matthews

385
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: because I know how how high they were. I'm sorry

386
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: I sat even though I knew high they were on

387
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: Tiber because I figured week one they're gonna try to

388
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: give Matthews show to establish him himself, and instead it

389
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: was all Talbert who was sitting on my bench. Um.

390
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: But remember Talbert got a little nicked up that week.

391
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: He didn't practice UM very much. He dressed, but then

392
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: didn't do as much week too, and and and the

393
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, Matthews has sees the opportunity. Now

394
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 1: Pulbert's closer to but they seem to be preferring Matthews

395
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 1: in the screen game and handing off to him. He's

396
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: gotten a little better in past protection and he hasn't

397
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: been hasn't had the fumble LIUs yet. Now he goes

398
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:27,479
Speaker 1: into a game and fumbles a couple of times. They

399
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: have no problems reversing the roles feeding Talbert and Matthews

400
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: would have to get in where he fits in. Um.

401
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 1: You know, they're an interesting team right now because without

402
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: Gates in the equation, that that that uh, And they're

403
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: not running the balls tremendously well. I mean it's a lot.

404
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: They're screening people to death and they're trying to stretch

405
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,439
Speaker 1: the field with Vincent Jackson. But their offense isn't quite

406
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: just right yet. Um. And it seems like they remind

407
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 1: me the Steelers a little bit. They're still kind of

408
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 1: fishing for their identity. They're turning the ball over a lot.

409
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: The offensive line play hasn't been was most expected it

410
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: to be. Um. I tend to say with Philip Rivers

411
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: and company, they write it over time and playing in

412
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: that division and get to beat up on a couple

413
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 1: of crappy teams. Um. But right now I'm I'm writing

414
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: Matthews and debating whether to use Tolbert as a flex guy.

415
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: You know, from week to week, Jason, let's get to

416
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 1: the Texans, where the good news is Arian Foster is

417
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: going to play this week. Okay, it's good, We're put

418
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 1: them in our lineup, but then hold lot of second.

419
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 1: Gary Kubiak said earlier today, not sure of the workload

420
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: for Arian Foster. Likely a mix between Arian Foster and

421
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: Bent Tate. How is is that? How you see this

422
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: playing out on Sunday? I mean if I and I

423
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: think the mix will be shifted in bent Tate's favor.

424
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: I mean, Arie Foster probably will quote unquote start the

425
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: game as an I e. When they line up in

426
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 1: the you know, the first offense of formation, he'll probably

427
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 1: be on the field. But I think take will get

428
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 1: more than half the load. I mean that they've had

429
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 1: multiple setbacks here at Arian Foster, and they're gonna take

430
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: it very very carefully and judicially and gingerly. And Bent

431
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: Tate stough. I mean, if I had one of those, dude,

432
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 1: I was asked which one of those two I would

433
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: play this week? I would play Bent until I see

434
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: empirical evidence that Arian fosters ready to carry the ball

435
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: fifteen twenty times a game. So if he's not ready

436
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: and and it's gonna be a while. If you're bringing

437
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: him back as a token to get him back in

438
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 1: the lineup, I'm not saying that, but I'm saying it'll

439
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: be by committee. I mean, he's not a guy who

440
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,719
Speaker 1: they could feed the ball to at this point seven

441
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: times on a particular drive. I mean, that's just he's

442
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: not there yet. I mean he's missed a lot of time.

443
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: He has not had that many full practices under him,

444
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 1: So I mean even just from a take the injury

445
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: out of it, I mean, look at Chris Johnson. No,

446
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 1: he hasn't missed that much time. But it's a running back.

447
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: You need to have taken some hits. You need to

448
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: get your legs under you. You need to be in

449
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 1: game shape, you need to be game conditioned. You're not

450
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 1: going to convince me that Arian fosters any of those

451
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: things right now. Well, Jason, you know, I'm I'm the

452
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 1: only guy in the room here that wasn't part of

453
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:54,719
Speaker 1: a very shady deal that went down. And you know,

454
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: as an NFL insider, I just kind of wanted to

455
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 1: get your take on the ogus trade that went on

456
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: in our league between one Michael Fabriano and Jason Smith

457
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 1: from a Yankee slash Laker slash uh cowboy slash what

458
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: Duke basketball? Who am I missing in the equation? From

459
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: anyone that dubious? Nothing was surprising. He rooted for the

460
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: Cobra cum Here. Here's the trade. Here, here's the trade.

461
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: Michael Fabriano traded me Steve Smith, Ryan Grant, James Starks

462
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: when I traded him Maurice Jones, Drew and Dwayne Bow.

463
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: This was the deal. Now, I don't like either of

464
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: those guys. You know so obviously you know on a

465
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: team that that I'm helping to co own. Now, I

466
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: don't like m j D. I don't like Dwayne Bow

467
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: because they plan on horrible teams that aren't gonna score. Now,

468
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Elliott that m j D had a hundred

469
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 1: yards against you this past weekend. But I don't like

470
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: these guys going forward. I think there's a better chance

471
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: of Steve Smith because Caroline is gonna throw the football.

472
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: They played in a monsoon last week that nobody knew

473
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 1: except for our guys at aky weather dot Com. And

474
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: now you look at the time I'm sharing Green Bay.

475
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: Things are becoming a little bit more settled now, Grand

476
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,239
Speaker 1: Grant would have been the guy, but now he's not

477
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: because he's injured this week, likely not gonna play. James

478
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: talks the guy, I got two guys on offenses that

479
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,400
Speaker 1: are gonna throw the football and put up thirty points

480
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: of games, and I like my guys going for let

481
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 1: me let me ask you, Jason Lackin for oh, my friend.

482
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: If in Week two of the two thousand and ten

483
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 1: fantasy season there is a trade where Andre Johnson and

484
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: Chris Johnson were dealt for Aryan Foster and Brandon Lloyd,

485
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: everyone in that league would have had their hair on

486
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 1: fire saying that it was not fair. At the end

487
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: of the season, the guy who got Brandon Lloyd and

488
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 1: Aryan Foster made out in that trade. Unless you can

489
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: predict the future, you cannot overturn a trade that's not

490
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: Michael Vick for Anthony Gonzalez, you cannot do it. So

491
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: as commissioner, and this is how I run all of

492
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 1: my leagues, most trades, unless they are ridiculous or there's

493
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: some sort of collusion involved, I let them go through.

494
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 1: What happens if Jones Drew blows out a knee next week.

495
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,880
Speaker 1: What happens if games Starks who's gonna start this week

496
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: because Ryan Grant's hurt all of a sudden becomes the

497
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:08,479
Speaker 1: guy there. You listen, you can't base a trade on

498
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,159
Speaker 1: previous value because you don't think it's a good trade,

499
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,919
Speaker 1: or maybe it's just locking for a sour grave because

500
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 1: his Red Sox are struggling, and I'm a Yankees fan

501
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: that he doesn't like to see me gettee in the league.

502
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,679
Speaker 1: Who thinks it's totally bogus? Who know how desperate you

503
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: were for a running back? How you? How I should

504
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,679
Speaker 1: I could pull the text out on TV about Michael Turner.

505
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,719
Speaker 1: You would have done anything. You would have thrown your

506
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: mom under a bus to get yourself with maybe not

507
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: my running back, And so you rig the trading. You

508
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,719
Speaker 1: finally got it. I mean, let's see that there's no

509
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: rigging about the Wait a minute, what you know? Look,

510
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: this is not two thousand and eight, This is not

511
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,159
Speaker 1: the time before Twitter was invented. This is not Maurice

512
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: Jones drew of two thousand ten, two thousand, This is

513
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: not Dwayne bow of last year with fifteen touchdowns. Both

514
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: those teams, the Chiefs and the Jaguars, stink out loud.

515
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 1: They can't score points. It's gonna take the Chiefs until

516
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: Canadian Thanksgiving to score fifty points this year. You're acting

517
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 1: like Carolina is going to be a juggernaut every week.

518
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: I mean, Caroline is gonna throw the football. I think

519
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 1: Carolina is gonna, well, they're gonna throw the football every week.

520
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: They're gonna lose, but they're gonna throw the football. That's

521
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: their identity now. So I I have more confidence in

522
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: Steve right now. They also gave the angel I mean

523
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 1: Angels off the slow start, but they don't give people

524
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 1: twenty million dollars guarantee. That's actually a completely just to

525
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: walk away from. And if you watch Stewart, he's gotten

526
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: better and better each week. And especially if they get

527
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: otall healthy. They got some people who can road grade

528
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: a little bit, so I would not all of a sudden,

529
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: uh you know, let me put them out there team

530
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 1: that wants to throw the ball seven times a game.

531
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 1: And that's a good question. Jason. Let's get off the

532
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: trade topic, because nobody wants to hear about anybody else's

533
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 1: fantasy trades. But the situation in Carolina right now, where

534
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,639
Speaker 1: Cam Newton's throwing the ball a ton a lot of

535
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: people are wondering, do I drop the Angela Williams now

536
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: this week and week four? I have Jonathan Stewart ranked

537
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: ahead of d'An angel Williams in the running back position.

538
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: I don't even have d'An angel in my top forty

539
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: because he's done nothing. And if you look at the

540
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: numbers one rushing touchdown since the member eight of two

541
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: thousand and nine, do you expect di'angelo to start turning

542
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: things around here? Are the Panthers gonna run the ball more,

543
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: especially this week against the Jaguars where they're probably not

544
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: gonna fall behind, or are we seeing sort of the

545
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: transition of the Carolina Panthers from a run based team

546
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 1: to a team that wants to throw the football with

547
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, Well, I mean, they certainly want to be

548
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: much more vertical than they've been in a while, and

549
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: they've rejuvenated Steve Smith and Lostell's making some nice plays

550
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 1: in the back of the end zone and doing some

551
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: things in the red zone. Um and Savinski, yes, he

552
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: has has certain offensive aspirations, but this is still I mean,

553
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 1: and I'm a big can Newton guys are gonna find

554
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: but we're still talking about Ana fight here. I mean,

555
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: this is a kid who played one year a big

556
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: time college football, and yes he's ahead of the curve.

557
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: But you know, things, people start grinding down as the

558
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: season goes on, Defensive coordinators figure out more about him.

559
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 1: They're they're not gonna want him slinging and around times

560
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 1: a game. That's not who they want to be right now.

561
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: Now they're comfortable with him throwing at thirty times and

562
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: running at twenty thirty five. Yeah, but I'm gonna I'm

563
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: looking for those carries to increase, particularly as they play

564
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: in more inclement conditions, as we get into more weather

565
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: games that they'll certainly have down the road. Yeah. Again,

566
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 1: they went out of their way to keep It would

567
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: have been real easy to let the Angelo Williams walk,

568
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: I mean really easy, and they fought pretty hard to

569
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 1: keep them and gave them a big time contract. So

570
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: that shows that they're long and and they want to

571
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: have multiple backs. People have tried to trade for goods

572
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: in for a while, and they won't get rid of

573
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: him either. Mrty Ernie has a lot of faith in

574
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: his running backs and still feels like even though Fox

575
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: isn't there anymore, that running back by committee, grinding people out,

576
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: being a physical fourth quarter team, that that's still who

577
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: they want to be. You know, Jason, I brought up

578
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: the trade, so I feel like I should put a

579
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,640
Speaker 1: button on it. You know, when I saw the deal

580
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 1: go down in our fantasy league, I thought of Sports

581
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 1: Illustrated cover with Kurt Gibson on it, with collusion in

582
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: the headline. You know, That's what That's all that could

583
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: come to my mind. I'm with you, you know, I'm

584
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: with your rich eyes is with America, is with you.

585
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: But America is not the commissioner of this league. Fabiano is.

586
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: And and that's fine. It's a it's a it's a

587
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 1: vulgar display of power by the commissioner. But I believe

588
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,399
Speaker 1: in karma. One last quickie, speaking of Detroit, Kirk Gibson,

589
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: the Lions play the Cowboys. What kind of fancy value

590
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 1: you see does Bryant having with Tony Romo having to

591
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: tell everybody else where to line up in Miles Austin. Now, Yeah,

592
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: I left him on my bench this week, and I'm

593
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 1: thinking I probably will leave him on the mean last week.

594
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: I'll probably leave him on the bench this week as well.

595
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: At this point, I want to see him play four

596
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 1: quarters of a football game and do it at some

597
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 1: sort of a consistent level before I'm ready to crown him. Um,

598
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: we'll see how the ribs hold up. He's gonna be

599
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: facing a different kind of pass rush in this game. UM,

600
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, you've got a bunch of

601
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 1: receivers who don't know what they're doing. I mean, obviously

602
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 1: he's gonna feed Witten, and he has a huge comfort

603
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: level with Witten, but I'm not sure that it's there

604
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 1: yet with does just yet? Um? And hey, the lines

605
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 1: are a team now where you need to start thinking

606
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: about their offense when you game plan and saying, we

607
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: the a team opposing the lines better be a little

608
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: more ball control than might we might normally do because

609
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 1: they can score points over there real quickly and they

610
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: don't necessarily need to run the ball at all to

611
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: do it. Um. So you know, I I I still

612
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: have some some reservations about Dez. I think he'll be

613
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 1: better actually when Miles, when they have there the full

614
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: diversity of their offense in place. I think des will

615
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,120
Speaker 1: be more of a big play guy and he'll get

616
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: his points and he'll explode into the end zone at

617
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 1: times from forty yards out right now as someone who

618
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: has to be that number one guy. I think, given

619
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: where he is health wise and given where he is

620
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: development wise, if the team wants to double him and

621
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,119
Speaker 1: take him out, they can. He's NFL Network inside of

622
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: Jason locking forward. Jason, Thanks a bunch. We'll talk to

627
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:04,520

Speaker 1: eight eight eight XM Fantasy Jason Smith, Michael Fabiano, Elliot

631
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 1: Harrison from NFL Network NFL dot Com. Coming up next,

634
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: also give you a couple of big waiver wire guys

635
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: to pick up. Did you get set for this week?

636
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 1: And it's NFL Fantasy Live on Sirius x M. Jacoby

637
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: Ford it was a sleeper, uh super sleeper on NFL

638
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: dot Com in the preseason, then got banged up, but

639
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson certainly wants to utilize him in the offense.

640
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: What I'm gonna be very interested to see is when

641
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: all the Raiders wide receivers are healthy. Uh, Darius Ay

642
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 1: would be, I would assume healthier. Not you know, he's

643
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: not really involved very much anyways, But Denarius Moore has

644
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: really come out and played extremely well over the last

645
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Big game two weeks ago. Last week,

646
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: didn't have huge yardage game, but the the issue was

647
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: with Jets, you're not gonna throw the ball, so they

648
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: ran a reverse and he scored a touchdown on that.

649
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: How did the Raiders utilize Ford and more this week?

650
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: I'd probably start more if I had to choose between

651
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: the two guys. But Jacoby for it is extremely interesting,

652
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: especially in leagues where you get return yards and touchdowns,

653
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: which is sort of how I like to set up

654
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: my scoring systems. Well, I think one thing about Jacoby

655
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 1: Ford is in the return game. I mean, if you

656
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 1: get points for that, you know, obviously he had three

657
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: kick returns for touchdowns last year. And the thing about

658
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: Ford is. He is so explosive, and I don't know

659
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: that anybody on their team has his explosion, So it

660
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: will be interesting to see how he gets back in

661
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: the mix Hugh Jackson's offense. But just from what I've

662
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: seen from the Raiders so far, I think they'll come

663
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: up with any way they can to get him involved,

664
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: whether it's bubble screens, little little tiny trick plays, They're

665
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: just gonna try and get the ball on Jacoby Ford's hands.

666
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: In his NFL Fantasy Live Serious XM Fantasy Sports Radio,

667
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 1: Jason Smith, Michael Fabiano, Elliot Harrison will have more waiver

668
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: wire for you guys in a second. But Steven Jacksonson,

669
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: when we didn't get too off the top, we talked

670
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: about injuries and guys coming back in and here come

671
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: to St. Louis Rams and they've had a rough start.

672
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: They played three really good teams. Now here comes Steven

673
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: Jackson back. But this is not the same Rams team

674
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 1: that he'll be coming back to. It's more of a

675
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: past driven team now with Sam Bradford. Steven Jackson's fantasy

676
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: value going forward, I think he's a guy if you're interested.

677
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: He's definitely a by low guy, right now on Steven Jackson,

678
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 1: the problem is, you know, with the injuries, Steven Jackson

679
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 1: has been no stranger to being banged up in his career,

680
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: but the schedule is really favorable for him down the stretch.

681
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: He doesn't even play anybody in his own division until

682
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: mid season. So I think, Steven Jackson, you wait and

683
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: see what happens this week. Does he come back healthy.

684
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: He's got a tough matchup against the Redskins. But at

685
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 1: some point Steven Jackson is going to be somebody that

686
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna possibly want to consider as a by low candidates,

687
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: a featured back uh in a in an offense that

688
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: we thought would score some points. They haven't, especially since

689
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: he's been gone. But Jackson's a talented guy and again

690
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: a guy who's a featured back, and that has some

691
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: value in fantasy football. You know, the thing about running

692
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 1: backs now is with the can continued to value aation,

693
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: I guess that's where I can make it up. I'm

694
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: an English major. I went to Syracuse in the continued

695
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: devaluation of running backs. Now there's more time shares, there's

696
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: more guys hurt. I don't know how high you can

697
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,239
Speaker 1: sell a guy like this. You know you're gonna you're

698
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: gonna get offers for if I have Steven Jackson, I'm

699
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: gonna get offers where it's like, boy, really, this is it.

700
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: I mean, you're not gonna get well, you're gonna give

701
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: me a great number one wide receivers. I'm giving you,

702
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 1: you know, stud running back Stephen Jackson. I think plenty

703
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: of fantasy owners are running scared of the running back

704
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 1: position because of the platoons and because of the the

705
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: injuries that that have hit. I don't know how many

706
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: teams are gonna go crazy, Yeah, let me load up

707
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: to give me one of these running backs. But how

708
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: many teams out there are winning with really lousy or

709
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 1: subpar running backs in their starting lineup? A lot of

710
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: teams are. You have to have a very good quarterback.

711
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: I mean a guy like Rogers, Brady Stafford, Pries, somebody

712
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: like that who's putting up enormous numbers, uh, in order

713
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: to sort of nullify what you have at the running

714
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 1: back position or what you don't have at the running

715
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: back position. Again, maybe I'm old school. I like to

716
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: have those solid running backs and the and the wide receivers.

717
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: And there's so many good quarterbacks out there that, uh

718
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: you know. Ryan Fitzpatrick is a perfect example. Nobody drafted

719
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: him right now, He's in the top eight and Fantasy

720
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: points of this position. Al right, eight XM Fantasy eight

721
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: eight nine three to six eight two. Roger and Florida.

722
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: You're on NFL Fantasy Live, guys, I want to see

723
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: if you can uh tell me what you think about

724
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: a trade that was offered to me today. All right's

725
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: a ten team, no, no, no ptr. I would get

726
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: Michael Vick, Percy Harvin, and Marshawn Lynch. All right, I'd

727
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: be giving up Matthew Stafford, Joseph Dye, and Dion Branch. Wow.

728
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: You know what that's really Honestly, I think this comes

729
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 1: down to who do you believe in more? The rest

730
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: of the way Vicker Stafford, I agree. I agree with

731
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: that because getting Marshawn Lynch is like getting nothing, because

732
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 1: I mean, he's like getting Jane Lynch. He plays for

733
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. As much as I like Percy Harvin coming

734
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: into the season, he hasn't been that good yet. You know,

735
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 1: maybe that'll change down the road, but he's struggled and

736
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago he only saw about percent

737
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: of the offensive snaps. Last week he went up to

738
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: seventy two. But he's still and put up great numbers.

739
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: And Joseph and Die has sneakily is that a word, sneakily?

740
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: We're making up boards on the show. Very good this year.

741
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: He's in the top twenty in fantasy points among running backs,

742
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 1: and he scored fourteen plus fantasy points against the Steelers,

743
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: and the Colts are gonna have to continue to lean

744
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: on him. And I'm actually impressed that you didn't say

745
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: anything about George Lynch, a U great eighties guitarists. They

746
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 1: say George Lynch, the former power forward for Carolina basketball.

747
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: There's a couple of George Lynches, you know. Yeah, I

748
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: think it comes down to Stafford, and honestly, going forward,

749
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: I know it's tough Stafford the China Doll, but I

750
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: believe in staff It's crazy to say I believe in

751
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: Stafford's health this year going forward more than I do

752
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 1: Michael Vick's. Isn't that unbelievable? And this is again the

753
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: cychnical nature of a fantasy football in the National Football League,

754
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: where things can change. Everyone in the preseason was all

755
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 1: about Michael Vicky was Superman. He was a second coming.

756
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: How do you feel about Michael Vick? Right now? Guys

00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: in our league. Then you're upset about the trade. FABS

765
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: and I made you want to give up Wes Welker,

766
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: who has had a thousand targets so far from Tom Brady.

767
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: Here's the deal. Here's the deal. Okay, mccluster is it's

768
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: really if you look at it, it's it's sort of

769
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: a two for one. You're get mc cluster is not

770
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 1: going to give you any great fantasy consistency throughout the season.

771
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,880
Speaker 1: So but here's my question. If you can play a

772
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: tight end in a flex spot, I think the deal

773
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 1: actually makes some sense because you can play Gates at

774
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: tight end or Witten at a flex you have Vincent

775
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: Jackson in there, who's solid. But if you can't, then

776
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,359
Speaker 1: you're gonna end up with either Gates or winning on

777
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: your bench once Gates is healthy. So in that respect,

778
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: I don't know that the trade may much sense. It

779
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: depends on what you can do with your starting lineup.

780
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 1: And just to take the mc cluster side of this,

781
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: I just don't see how much value he's gonna give, uh,

782
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,720
Speaker 1: you know you, or how much value you're giving away

783
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: by giving away Dexter mccluster. I mean, he's look, he's

784
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,400
Speaker 1: playing for the Chiefs. And how many times have you

785
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 1: mentioned how awful the Chiefs are? I mean every five

786
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 1: minutes every don't even know me, I say it, but

787
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 1: Dwayne Bow, you don't. If you don't like Dwyane Bow,

788
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: then you really don't like Dexter mccluster. Who Oh, by

789
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: the way, on the Chiefs roster is listed as a

790
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 1: what Mike wide receiver? Wide receiver. I look at this

791
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 1: and I say, if I'm gonna trade the number one

792
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 1: wide out in fantasy and a guy I think is

793
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: gonna be the number one guy all season long time,

794
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: Brady's gonna throw forty five passes a week. I gotta

795
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: get more back than Vincent Jackson and Jason Winn, especially

796
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: because you know, like I said, something we've been talking

797
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 1: about on NFL Fantasy Live all week. The tight end

798
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 1: position is really deep this year, and I'd rather just

799
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: pick up somebody else and then try inta to try

800
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: to make a trade and try to fill a spot

801
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 1: for a couple of minutes. So once we start getting

802
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: these calls, and I want to ask people's opinion on

803
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: the trade that you and I made. Oh, can have

804
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: people's opinion about that. So let's take another call. All right,

805
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,800
Speaker 1: let's get to Gregg in Atlanta, Gregor a NFL Fantasy

806
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: Live on Serious. Let me ask you a question, my

807
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 1: friend Ryan Grant, James Starks and Steve Smith for Martin

808
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,359
Speaker 1: for Morrige Jones, Drew and Dwayne Bow Is that a

809
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: trade that is overturnable in your opinion? Something smells fishy?

810
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 1: All I can say this is overturnable. It depends on

811
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: your league and your commissioner. That's all the way I

812
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: can think of. You know, it's it's you know what.

813
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop you right there. Greg. It depends on

814
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: your commissioner. What happens when You're commissioner is the one

815
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 1: who's benefiting from the trade chance of yard It's not

816
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 1: gonna get overturned, is it exactly? You know? And and

817
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 1: hold on, Jason and are the teams in our league.

818
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: We're pretty vocal that we did not think it was

819
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 1: a fair deal. You guys are stuck. Okay here, I

820
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 1: got vision and the rest of the world is wearing

821
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: by my bye law and says fantasy analysts. You have

822
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 1: to trust that I know what I'm doing, that I'm

823
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 1: trying to win a championship, and I'm not gonna win

824
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: it with guys that playing horrible offense. Greg, go ahead,

825
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: what's your question for us? I've lost Kenny Britt and

826
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 1: I need to replace with either Mike in a flex PPR,

827
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:22,240
Speaker 1: Mike Tilbert or Deverie Henderson. Wow. Yeah, I think every Henderson.

828
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: I think right now Mike Tilbert doesn't have any value

829
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,279
Speaker 1: in San Diego. One only caveat to that, though, is

830
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 1: that Deverie Henderson is not a high catch guy. He's

831
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: your deep threat. He's your chunk yardage guy. Now, if

832
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: it's Lance More than I say, hey, Lance More in

833
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,879
Speaker 1: a heartbeat, but Deverie Henderson, I don't know. I think

834
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 1: there's a lot closer than you think. Deverie Henderson seems

835
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: to be an all or nothing guy, and if I'm

836
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 1: a mistaken, last week he was a nothing guy. Wait

837
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,879
Speaker 1: before in Chicago, he was because Lance Moore was back,

838
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: and to me, I go Tilbert. But what were the

839
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,360
Speaker 1: touches last week? Matthews had twenty one and Tilbert had four.

840
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 1: I mean nothing or nothing for Mike Tilbert right now,

841
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 1: you're all or nothing for Devery Henderson. But you don't

842
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 1: know how many touches Tilbert's gonna get this week. You

843
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: don't know what Devere Henderson is gonna get this week.

844
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 1: There's more options in that wide receiving game. And we've

845
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 1: actually seen reports that Marcus Colson has returned to a

846
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,839
Speaker 1: limited practice, so that's another thing that works. I think

847
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: I would want Tilbert and Deverie Henderson. That game, by

848
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 1: the way, wasn't in Chicago, Chicago and New Orleans. I

849
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: said in Chicago that was a deep ball where he

850
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: got almost all that yardage and he got a touchdown.

851
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: I think he had a hundred yards on like two

852
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 1: or three catches. Uh, Lance Moore and Colston, we're not

853
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 1: playing in that game. So I think going forward, Henderson's

854
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 1: value is down, whereas Tilbert, especially if he gets those

855
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: goal line touches, I think you have to go with him,

856
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,080

865
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 1: for Mike Tilbot right now. You're all or nothing for

866
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 1: Defree Henderson. But you don't know how many touches Tilbert's

867
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: gonna get this week. You don't know what deVie Henderson

868
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 1: is going to get this week. There's more options in

870

871
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: another thing that works. I think I would want Tilbert

872
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,720
Speaker 1: and Defie Henderson That game, by the way, wasn't in Chicago, Chicago,

873
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: and New Orleans. I said in Chicago that was a

Speaker 1: deep ball where he got almost all that yardage and

875
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,320
Speaker 1: he got a touchdown. I think he had a hundred

876
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,560
Speaker 1: yards on like two or three catches. Uh, Lance Moore

877
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 1: and Colston we're not playing in that game. So I

878
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: think going forward, Henderson's value is down, whereas Tilbert, especially

879
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: if he gets those goal line touches, I think you

880
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,800

896
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: lot of buy low guys for the last hour of

897
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 1: the show. Steven jacksons a guy we said lope can

898
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,359
Speaker 1: possibly buy low on him. Let me throw out Frank Gore.

899
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 1: He's not a guy I want to buy anything on.

900
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: If someone calls with Frank Gore, I hang up the phone.

901
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 1: But how low can you go to really buy on

902
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: Frank Gore, who was banged up and barely holding on

903
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 1: to his starting job right now? Well, I think it

904
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: was interesting. By the way, that was Megadeth. I was

905
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 1: just waiting for you to say something you did. Megadeth

906
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 1: is pure greatness. But that aside, I thought you're gonna

907
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,359
Speaker 1: mentioned Dave Mustain and say something crazy. So not at all,

908
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 1: not at all. But I'm not sure that you could

909
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: get Dave Mustain in a trade for Frank Gore. Right now.

910
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 1: We we've best line you've ever had in the week

911
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 1: I've known you. We we We talked on NFL Fantasy

912
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 1: Live today about Daniel Thomas for Frank Gore, and I

913
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: love you guys thoughts on this, because this one, to

914
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: me is I really don't know what I would do.

915
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 1: I need to see more of of a Daniel Thomas.

916
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: And by the way, Dave mustanism must start in all

917
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: guitar gods fantasy football leagues. Daniel Thomas has looked very

918
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 1: good for a couple of weeks. Would I trade Frank

919
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: Gore to get Daniel Thomas? I need to see more

920
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,319
Speaker 1: of a sample size on Daniel Thomas, to be quite

921
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: honest with you, And I'm not giving up on Gore

922
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,760
Speaker 1: altogether yet. If Gore plays this week against the Eagles

923
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:44,720
Speaker 1: and is just god awful, okay, then I'm really starting

924
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 1: to get worried to the point where I'm gonna bench him.

925
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 1: The Eagles have an awful run defense. If he can

926
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: come out and play well this week, you know what

927
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: next week we're talking about how Frank Gore suddenly has

928
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 1: more value in starting lineups. But just as an entry

929
00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: point into this conversation, using Daniel Thomas as trade value,

930
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: using someone very specific, would you trust a guy like

931
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 1: him over Gore even though he's a rookie right now?

932
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 1: Because let's all things being equal, that Frank Wore is playing,

933
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:11,920
Speaker 1: Daniel Thomas is playing. I'm playing go over Thomas this

934
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:13,839
Speaker 1: week because he's playing against the four, because he's playing

935
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 1: against the Eagles and the run defense is just dreadful.

936
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: What about you, Jago Daniel Thomas because I've seen, Yes,

937
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 1: you need more of a sample, but I've seen the

938
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,359
Speaker 1: sample of Frank Gore and I know that the guy

939
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 1: has done. They drafted Daniel Thomas to be this guy

940
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 1: in Miami's a team that's gonna score points, going for it.

941
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:28,839
Speaker 1: I have more confidence in Daniel Thomas, wh at least

942
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 1: as one hundred yard game than Frank or does in

943
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,839
Speaker 1: three to six two eight nine six, three to six

944

Speaker 1: A two Mike and New Jersey on NFL Fantasy Live.

945
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:43,240
Speaker 1: What you got, Um, thank you? A couple of lineup

946
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: questions Scoria and a potential trade um the shop or

947
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:55,360
Speaker 1: um at quarterback. I'm worried Schitzpatrick might have a bounce

948
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 1: back after such a big division win. Yeah, I'm going

949
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick here. I actually like Shop. If you look at

950
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 1: the numbers, Uh, The Steelers past defense is much better

951
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,280
Speaker 1: on paper than it is in actual football terms, because

952
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,960
Speaker 1: they played Tavirus Jackson, and they've played Carry Collins and

953
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,000
Speaker 1: Lance Painter. That past defense is not that great. But

954
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 1: I'm going Fitzpatrick. Man, while a guy is hot, you

955
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,879
Speaker 1: write him, and Fitzpatrick is on fire right now. I'd

956
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,839
Speaker 1: say the Bengals defense hasn't been as bad as people

957
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 1: would lead you to believe. I this is just me.

958
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm a little biased towards the guy. I have

959
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,319
Speaker 1: a hard time sitting Matt shop. I think he's been

960
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: so productive. He played great against the Saints. I I

961
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,200
Speaker 1: just can't bench him. See again, I go forward. Matt

962
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,479
Speaker 1: shab has had a couple of pretty good Fantasy years,

963
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 1: not great. I think he's a little overinflated, but he's

964
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 1: had some pretty good Fantasy has been a pretty good starter.

965
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: But this year he's just not as good as some

966
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 1: of these other guys. It's all about going far. You

967
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 1: gotta go forward another. Who have the Bengals played this year.

968
00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 1: They've played Cult McCoy, uh good quarterback. They've played Kyle

969
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 1: Orgin is not that great, especially in fantasy this season,

970
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:04,359
Speaker 1: and they've played Alex Smith and Alex p. Keaton can

971
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 1: probably throw for more yards than Alex. The only thing

972
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: The only thing I was it was that a family time.

973
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 1: The only thing I would say to that is you

974
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 1: can only play who's on your schedule. And I'm not

975
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 1: gonna be little the defense because we think their competition

976
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 1: hasn't been very good. Uh And and I think Matt

977
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: Shaw actually is a little underrated these days. But that's me.
