Speaker 1: Friends Forever. Do to to Do Din Do to to Do?
Speaker 1: Dinit do to do? Do? Didnit do? Yeah? This is
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Best Friends Forever here on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network alongside Frankie Standfall. I am Greg. So what's
Speaker 1: going on money? Greg? Week five? Getting ready? Obviously got
Speaker 1: some news that just came out in the past hours.
Speaker 1: Will go over that. Oh nothing crazy? Something you said
Speaker 1: that we talked about. I don't remember us talking about Okay, No,
Speaker 1: I was editing. Ah, you are right anyway, Well we'll
Speaker 1: talk a lot about trades today too, by low so Hi.
Speaker 1: If you have trades call in four four, four, three, six,
Speaker 1: seven nine. It's a very pivotal time in the fantasy season,
Speaker 1: because if you're one in three and oh and four,
Speaker 1: you might not have any choice but to try and
Speaker 1: make trades. But before we get into all that, I
Speaker 1: want to ask you a fantasy philosophy question, just a
Speaker 1: life philosophy question, but it kind of ties into fantasy.
Speaker 1: Do you think I'm a bad person? That's a little question.
Speaker 1: I think you're a bad person. On Wednesday at noon,
Speaker 1: you're even a bad person, Greg, No, the fact that
Speaker 1: you have to think that long, I wasn't. I was
Speaker 1: back by the question why why do you? Why were you?
Speaker 1: Do you think you could be a bad person? Well,
Speaker 1: then why do bad things keep happening to me in
Speaker 1: fantasy football? You want to flex those things tied together?
Speaker 1: You want to flex last year? You have the last year,
Speaker 1: So we're live in the past. I'm not. I'm not
Speaker 1: like those Yankee fans quarter seven, not like Tallas Cowboys fans.
Speaker 1: Just call that Corey now. No, I mean that's what
Speaker 1: a lot of Yankee fans and Tallas Cowboy fans saying.
Speaker 1: I'm not living in the past, Greg, I'm trying to
Speaker 1: win this year, right, I don't care about last year anymore?
Speaker 1: What did bad things keep happening to me? What's happening, Frank?
Speaker 1: I lost Kiki Kuta in my home league where my
Speaker 1: team is bad. We just went through it's bad like
Speaker 1: I'm one in three. My three best players are Kareem Hunt,
Speaker 1: Mike Evans, and Zach Ertz. I basically need to trade
Speaker 1: two of those guys this week to try and get
Speaker 1: death because as of now, I'm starting guys like Kenny Stills,
Speaker 1: Chris Hogan. How do you think he wanted for Mike Williams?
Speaker 1: Can you drinking my lineup? It's a it's a bad team.
Speaker 1: I needed Kiki Kote. Yesterday I said on the show,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be thirteen dollars in my home league on
Speaker 1: Kiki right. I started bumping it up pretty much every hour.
Speaker 1: Last night, I bumped it up a dollar, like, you
Speaker 1: know what, someone might have been listening to this show.
Speaker 1: They might put thirteen, I'll put fourteen. And I was like,
Speaker 1: you know what, someone who was listening might also have
Speaker 1: that logic and put fourteen. I'm gonna put fifteen, And
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't want a round number. You
Speaker 1: don't bet on a five, so I'm gonna put sixteen.
Speaker 1: That was the final bid was there midnight, ready to go.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm gonna get Kiki sixteen bucks. I didn't
Speaker 1: get Kiki. He went for seventeen bucks. You know who.
Speaker 1: He went to, Michael Floria, Michael F. Ben Florio, and
Speaker 1: I text him this morning. You know what he says, Sorry,
Speaker 1: my starting bid was twelve dollars. I bumped it up
Speaker 1: all throughout the days. I'm like, are you serious? Are
Speaker 1: you serious? I don't deserve this Greek. I'm sorry, Frankie.
Speaker 1: From the look of your face, it looks like something
Speaker 1: bad just happened your waivers. So my waivers just went.
Speaker 1: And you know, I have been kind of pounding the table,
Speaker 1: but that thirteen dollars bid for Kiki and this league.
Speaker 1: I got Brandon Marshall with eleven dollars in week one,
Speaker 1: and I realized, I'm sorry. I feel like I helped
Speaker 1: influence that you did, for sure. But but this league
Speaker 1: in general, it tends to be conservative with their fab
Speaker 1: Like I found like one league that I'm in is
Speaker 1: pretty loose with the fab and one league is pretty conservative.
Speaker 1: This one happens to be conservative. So for Kiki, I've
Speaker 1: been nine dollars rather than my normal thirteen, and we're
Speaker 1: talking downstairs, like, you know, what should I up that bid?
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna leave it at nine. Do you
Speaker 1: know what he went for? Thirteen, same exact number we said.
Speaker 1: He went to the first place team, So I would
Speaker 1: have been thirteen. I would have gotten There's one thing
Speaker 1: that I do with bids. Once I put my first
Speaker 1: bid in or have a bit idea, I'll never lower it.
Speaker 1: My first bid was thirteen, because if you do and
Speaker 1: this happens, you just can't do that. Greg, you can't
Speaker 1: lower the fab bids like I did. And I's got screwed.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry about that stink spam. Oh I want this
Speaker 1: player for sure. Well I'm putting waivers of tomorrow now.
Speaker 1: Lenny four Net already ruled out Week five. Done, Oh
Speaker 1: and even get that guy anyway. Leonard Fournett has been
Speaker 1: ruled out for week five already. We have people on
Speaker 1: Twitter saying, very knowledgeable people, sports medicine, sports doctor ish
Speaker 1: people saying that he could be out through the week nine.
Speaker 1: By Greg, Week five, week six, week seven, week eight.
Speaker 1: In week nine, you potentially will not have him back.
Speaker 1: So week ten Leonard Fournett because apparently him returning this week. Okay,
Speaker 1: he should have set out another week and then instead
Speaker 1: he actually injured himself. Now he re injured himself and
Speaker 1: it's more severe than it was before. So before when
Speaker 1: it was like a two to three week injury, it's
Speaker 1: now like a three to four week injury. And again,
Speaker 1: the Jaguars have Super Bowl aspirations, So why are you
Speaker 1: rush them back? That's reminds me email a doctor right
Speaker 1: right now, because we're giving the players to pick two
Speaker 1: players we want to talk about. Letter for Nett certainly
Speaker 1: will be on this list. It's as should DeVonta Freeman.
Speaker 1: Quinn expects to play this week coming to really, I
Speaker 1: mean I know that he leaves kind of set it, yeah, coming.
Speaker 1: I saw Inside Injuries tweeting today that they also expected
Speaker 1: DeVonta Freeman to be back this week. This is his
Speaker 1: optimal recovery time healthy to perform in week five. So this, uh,
Speaker 1: this seems like the week that that makes sense. And
Speaker 1: I was actually on I was on the Angle of
Speaker 1: Pursuit podcast last night. Gree with Kyle Robert was very
Speaker 1: nice and we were kind of talking about what do
Speaker 1: we expect the breakdown to be moving full in terms
Speaker 1: of touches for DeVonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman. He's a
Speaker 1: great question. I don't know that it's the sixty five
Speaker 1: split that were used to seeing. I still think that
Speaker 1: red zone job is locked up for DeVante Freeman. I
Speaker 1: just might be true, but I think overall we might
Speaker 1: be closer to people realize in GST we should trade
Speaker 1: Devon Freeman today. There's no trading in that league. Just tine,
Speaker 1: there's no trade in her car and there's no trading. Oh,
Speaker 1: that's right, they get rid of trading disaster. Wow. So
Speaker 1: so you're saying drafting DeVonta Freeman in the second round
Speaker 1: was not a good idea, Greg seems like a mistake
Speaker 1: at this point. But it's crazy because the guy I wired,
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen was the guy I wanted, and he hasn't
Speaker 1: been Grady And the other guy that I really wanted
Speaker 1: was Kareem Hunt, who you hate in the first round,
Speaker 1: don't hate him, you do in a full point PPR league.
Speaker 1: He hasn't been. He He was touchdown dependent coming into
Speaker 1: this week, and he had a great week this week.
Speaker 1: He absolutely did, no doubt about it. She is on
Speaker 1: a trade show. Why you should sell him. I disagree,
Speaker 1: it's why you should buy him. Would you really have
Speaker 1: the rest of the way Kareem Hunter? David Johnson still
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt because he plays and a much more explosive offense.
Speaker 1: Who would you rather have going forward? Freeman? David Johnson
Speaker 1: just because I don't think Chase Edmonds is going to
Speaker 1: do as much as Tevin Coleman does. We just saw
Speaker 1: David Johnson have his highest carry total of the year
Speaker 1: at twenty two UM, so he's actually had two very
Speaker 1: solid games in a row. He scored two games in
Speaker 1: a row, and I like the fact that his usage
Speaker 1: is increasing. So I'll take David Johnson. He doesn't really
Speaker 1: have a thorn in the side like devonsa Freeman does.
Speaker 1: Who would you rather have? Do? Do a bunch of these?
Speaker 1: I think these are popular trade jargets. You don't if
Speaker 1: you don't mind, No, I have David Johnson as a
Speaker 1: cell right now. If you look on the rundown, danaging
Speaker 1: three point three yards for carry this I looked at
Speaker 1: the run now, which is how I got to David Johnson,
Speaker 1: who appreciate it. Of course, Who would you rather have
Speaker 1: David Johnson or Jordan Howard? This might be schedule dependent.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull up Jordan Howard's upcoming schedules as a
Speaker 1: seat on the by this week. Remember, I know David
Speaker 1: Johnson I wrote in he has San Frand this week,
Speaker 1: which is probably okay, uh, and then Minnesota and Denver
Speaker 1: the two weeks after that. So those are not great matchups.
Speaker 1: So this could be especially the Minnesota game could be
Speaker 1: a game where you know, they just actually get destroyed
Speaker 1: and he doesn't get much work upcoming schedule four Jordan
Speaker 1: Howard coming out of the break, Miami Patriots, Jets, Bills,
Speaker 1: Allions later on season. That helps. It's fine, it's schedule. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a good question, man. I think I would take
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard's interesting. I was gonna say, David Johnson, maybe
Speaker 1: that's reactionary. That's close. Yeah, because again, like David Johnson
Speaker 1: is trending in the right direction, getting more carries, saying
Speaker 1: more usage, Jordan Howard in that department is actually training downwards.
Speaker 1: He had fifteen carries in fourteen twenty four and week
Speaker 1: three were like, all right, the big game is coming,
Speaker 1: which is what we all expected against Tampa Bay. Then
Speaker 1: eleven carries. You know he It's twenty five yards in
Speaker 1: a game where the Bear score for already eight points.
Speaker 1: So I understand the trepidation here, Greg, but you have
Speaker 1: to look at it like this is bye week is
Speaker 1: already now out of the way. He has a pretty
Speaker 1: good schedule coming out of the bye I expect to
Speaker 1: touch his too, bounce back, and he plays in a
Speaker 1: much better offense overall with the Chicago Bears UM and
Speaker 1: a better offensive line too, So it's very close. I
Speaker 1: think for those reasons though, the offensive line, the offense overall,
Speaker 1: the fact that his boy is gonna be behind him, UM,
Speaker 1: and just the upcoming schedule is not that scary. Elean
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard, that's a great question. Ultimately, maybe I'm being
Speaker 1: reactionary when it comes to this, but I'll tell you
Speaker 1: I want David Johnson, and it's just what you mentioned earlier.
Speaker 1: With Chase Evans not being a major factor the season
Speaker 1: twenty two carries your touches as week for David Johnson
Speaker 1: carries carries. He also had an additional like three or
Speaker 1: four receptions, So I think touches that's what you need
Speaker 1: and want from David Johnson. Terek Cohen was too good
Speaker 1: in my opinion in this past week to not be
Speaker 1: a factor. They saw the electricity that he brought to
Speaker 1: this offense. Jordan Howard in a thirty eight nothing game
Speaker 1: couldn't do anything and that was that gainela dependent. Well
Speaker 1: it's weird, but maybe is that opponent dependent potentially in
Speaker 1: that scenario, give me David Johnson over Jordan Howard do
Speaker 1: you worry about? Obviously, the offense overall is going to
Speaker 1: be better with Josh Rosen. I think we all saw that.
Speaker 1: Like Josh Rosen was pretty damn impressive. While I know
Speaker 1: he didn't put up huge numbers, just his ability to
Speaker 1: you know, fit balls into tight windows and push the
Speaker 1: ball down the field just obviously better than Sam Bradford. Uh,
Speaker 1: you have to feel a little bit better about the
Speaker 1: Cardinals offense. But I worry about the games where because
Speaker 1: I still feel like this is gonna happen where the
Speaker 1: Cardinals are just getting blown out and he just has
Speaker 1: to abandon the run, and those are you know what
Speaker 1: is David Johnson can give you in those matchups. I
Speaker 1: don't know that the Bears are ever going to be
Speaker 1: getting blown out in games because their defense is so good,
Speaker 1: so they're gonna be in a lot of games, a
Speaker 1: lot of you know, solid game script games for Jordan Howard.
Speaker 1: And I know, you know, we're saying that after a
Speaker 1: game where they were blowing them out and it was
Speaker 1: a good game to perform and he didn't do anything.
Speaker 1: But while you maybe two reactionary the other way for
Speaker 1: David Johnson, I'm reacting in Jordan Howard in that I'm not.
Speaker 1: I don't think this like I don't want to react
Speaker 1: too far the other way from Jordan Howard. Will you
Speaker 1: try to buy low this week on Jordan Howard? Sure,
Speaker 1: I think that makes sense. Um, if I own David Johnson,
Speaker 1: I think he might be people to get Jordan Howard
Speaker 1: in like another piece, like another complimentary peale, because I
Speaker 1: think Jordan Howard owners are like really on him now
Speaker 1: because you look at the yards per carry, it's at
Speaker 1: three points too. They were expecting that monster game. Like
Speaker 1: a lot of Fantasy owners are frustrated with Jordan Howard
Speaker 1: right now. It's the same way that they viewed David
Speaker 1: Johnson after week. To remember, you have to have a
Speaker 1: terrible game and everyone's like, oh my god, you know,
Speaker 1: trade David Johnson for whatever you can get. I have
Speaker 1: a feeling that Jordan Howard owners might be feeling that
Speaker 1: way about him right now. Okay, so there you go.
Speaker 1: That's the Jordan Howard and David Johnson, especially if you're
Speaker 1: like three and one or four and oh, and you
Speaker 1: can afford to get him on the bye week because
Speaker 1: you have that luxury because you're sitting pretty I think
Speaker 1: that makes sense. Obviously, we talked about LEVI four and
Speaker 1: now with David Johnson, that's probably tough. No. I just
Speaker 1: meant in general, if you're trying to acquire Jordan Howard,
Speaker 1: like not if you're not just being a David Johnson owner,
Speaker 1: like you can be a whatever owner and just try
Speaker 1: and acquire Jordan Howard because I think better days are ahead.
Speaker 1: Would you rather have DeVante Freeman or Joe Mixon? Wow?
Speaker 1: Um a'leen, And you know what, I'm not a DeVante
Speaker 1: Freeman guy, but I'm I'm worried about Joe Mixon too.
Speaker 1: I'll go with the youth. I'll go with the youth
Speaker 1: and Joe Mixon. Obviously, both offenses look very very good
Speaker 1: right now. Both offenses are clicking. I think the Falcons
Speaker 1: are gonna be in a lot of shootouts that might
Speaker 1: lend them more so towards passing the ball. Uh, it's
Speaker 1: a very good question. Honestly, I wouldn't want to actively
Speaker 1: acquire either one right now, and you know that about me, Greg,
Speaker 1: I don't like trading for injured players. I don't have
Speaker 1: injury optimism, especially when it comes to running backs who
Speaker 1: are coming off injuries with involving their knees. And DeVante Freeman,
Speaker 1: you know, he's another guy who he had multiple concussions
Speaker 1: last year. So I would lean Joe Mixon, but I'll
Speaker 1: say this, I think Jioe Bernard what he's done in
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon's absence, I don't know that Joe Mixon comes
Speaker 1: back and is instantly getting ad plus percent of the
Speaker 1: snaps again and is seeing the majority of the work.
Speaker 1: I think Giovanni Bernard has earned himself a role in
Speaker 1: this offense again. So to answer your question, I would
Speaker 1: lean Joe Mixon over Devon Freeman. But honestly, I don't
Speaker 1: want to actively trade for either one. So neither one
Speaker 1: is a Bye low high whatever is a BY, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to buy either one. Do you agree that
Speaker 1: you think Giovanni Bernard is worked in more with Joe
Speaker 1: Mixon throw as the season goes on. UM, I think
Speaker 1: Giovanni More's interesting word. He wasn't being used at all
Speaker 1: the first two weeks of the season, like it is
Speaker 1: all Joe Mixon, like he was getting twenty plus touches
Speaker 1: per game. I don't think it's gonna happen anymore. I
Speaker 1: think for the reason of Jeo looking as good as
Speaker 1: he has and wanting to preserve Joe Mixon like he can't.
Speaker 1: He's not gonna come back and just instantly get that
Speaker 1: big workload again. At least that's how I feel. I think.
Speaker 1: I think I would think the shot on Joe Mixon.
Speaker 1: They they said in the preseason and early on they
Speaker 1: showed it they want him to be the man that
Speaker 1: they absolutely want it, and yes they need to keep
Speaker 1: him healthy, and yes, Giovanni Bernard has looked good. But
Speaker 1: I thought what we saw at times a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago was electric Joe Mixon, and I think that
Speaker 1: can come back. Ultimately, I would buy Joe Mixon right now,
Speaker 1: like this is a guy that's gonna have fresh legs
Speaker 1: a second half of the year. I don't know what
Speaker 1: it costs, obviously, UM, the owner of Joe Mixon, it's
Speaker 1: going to cost in his mind, he doesn't want to
Speaker 1: sell him low. He doesn't want to He's not gonna
Speaker 1: sell him for the discount that you probably want to pay.
Speaker 1: It's tough. Again. The only way that I could trade
Speaker 1: for Joe Mixon, if I were going to try too,
Speaker 1: I have to be three and one or four O,
Speaker 1: because you're two and two or less. You're trading for
Speaker 1: a guy that is absolutely going to help you this week.
Speaker 1: And there's still a chance that Joe Mixon plays this week.
Speaker 1: I just don't know how useful he's going to be
Speaker 1: for fantasy because again, even if he plays, remember the
Speaker 1: timetable that Dr A gave us was more like four
Speaker 1: to six weeks for Joe Mixon, which pushes him more
Speaker 1: so towards like week six weeks seven. And if he's
Speaker 1: back this week again, that would be a week early
Speaker 1: because the chance for ree injury. I don't think he
Speaker 1: gets the full workload right away out of the gate.
Speaker 1: So if I'm trading him, I have to be over
Speaker 1: five D and fantasy I agree that two or two
Speaker 1: or less because I don't think that he contributes all
Speaker 1: that much this week. I completely agree with you I'm
Speaker 1: not training for him for this week. I'm trading him
Speaker 1: for that second half of the year. We talked yesterday
Speaker 1: about a championship move, a lady on Belt everything. That's
Speaker 1: what I think Joe Mixon can be. I don't know
Speaker 1: what his playoff schedule is. Like that in my head
Speaker 1: is obviously I mean, maybe this isn't the obvious sense,
Speaker 1: Like I would rather trade for Levy on Belt if
Speaker 1: I were three and one to four. There's risking all
Speaker 1: with both. I would agree with that. Well, het you
Speaker 1: some of the running backs you're buying high, selling low
Speaker 1: on and vice versa. When we come back, I want
Speaker 1: to do the same with the wide receivers. That's cool
Speaker 1: with you, Frankie. We gotta stand of the day. I
Speaker 1: want to get to and we have a whole lot
Speaker 1: of wide receivers and we wanted to let you know
Speaker 1: what you should be doing with them. This is the

Speaker 1: So we're going over some of these players that we
Speaker 1: want you to sell, and certainly the players that we
Speaker 1: want you to buy. Let me get today's Saturday before
Speaker 1: we continue on. What is Today's State of the day,
Speaker 1: the Tyler Boyd stat. Yeah, that was yesterday's stat of
Speaker 1: the day. Give it me again because we're talking about
Speaker 1: Tyler would Tyler Boyd's last six gamest seven targets, thirty
Speaker 1: six receptions, seventy six point six catch rate four nine yards.
Speaker 1: It's thirteen point six yards per catch, three touchdowns, a
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty point five quarterback rating when being targeted
Speaker 1: over a full season, that would be ninety six catches
Speaker 1: and four yards and eight touchdowns. Greggy first two hundred
Speaker 1: yard games of his career back to back weeks for
Speaker 1: Cincinnati this I understand the matchup was great for Cincinnati
Speaker 1: over the past couple of weeks, so he wanted to
Speaker 1: use Andy Dalton. It's the same this week. It's a
Speaker 1: very good matchup for Cincinnati this week, I believe. Is
Speaker 1: that direct Frank. It's against the Miami It's a pretty
Speaker 1: good rushing matchup. I know they have some injuries in
Speaker 1: the secondary right now. Xavier Howard has been very, very
Speaker 1: good this year, but he's probably going to be shadowing
Speaker 1: a Green. So with Tyler Boyd in the slot, I
Speaker 1: think he should be just just fine. The the Tyler
Speaker 1: Boyd thing is is real in my opinion, and we've
Speaker 1: spoken about him and he's the one guy Frank I
Speaker 1: believe has been the waiver wire pick up that matter
Speaker 1: thus far. But how long will continue? Is this something
Speaker 1: we should sell high? Is this or is this something
Speaker 1: we should buy high? Is what Tyler Boyd's doing sustainable? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely in on Tyler Boyd. Um just the way
Speaker 1: he's being used, the targets. He's playing the slot basically
Speaker 1: all the time now for the Cincinnati Bengals, and I'm
Speaker 1: going to continue to talk about this. Slot receivers in
Speaker 1: the NFL are the ones that you want to target,
Speaker 1: especially for fantasy purposes. We're seeing this now, Adam feeling
Speaker 1: guys like Tyler Boyd. Even Sterling Shepherd has, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of turned a new page in the fantasy season
Speaker 1: for this season. So Tyler Boyd, I absolutely think that
Speaker 1: it's sustainable. And look, I'm buying high Parsley due to
Speaker 1: the schedule, Like if someone is not ranking him the
Speaker 1: way that I view him right now, because I view
Speaker 1: him as like a low end wide receiver two, which
Speaker 1: might be crazy. The guy that we just picked up
Speaker 1: he is a week ago, but he faces my Emmy
Speaker 1: this week and then he gets Pittsburgh Casey and Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: Are there better matchups that you can have your wide
Speaker 1: receiver then that threesome of Pittsburgh, Casey and Tampa Bay
Speaker 1: after this weekend, I'm not I'm not scared of Miami.
Speaker 1: And you know, he just played Atlanta last week, so
Speaker 1: that's partially why he was so good. But the way
Speaker 1: that the targets are trending, I mean double digit targets, uh,
Speaker 1: the two hundred yard games back to back, Like even
Speaker 1: if the guy is not scoring touchdowns, he is clearly
Speaker 1: being used. And oh, by the way, Tyler Eiffort nearly
Speaker 1: lost his legs, so that that could just lead to
Speaker 1: even more targets for Tyler Boyd. Yeah, they'll probably work
Speaker 1: Tyler Croft and c j Uzoma, whoever it might be.
Speaker 1: But is that person gonna get as many targets as
Speaker 1: Tyler Iffort was getting. Probably not. We might even see
Speaker 1: more from Tyler Boyd, which is absolutely crazy. So yeah,
Speaker 1: and Tyler Croft, they're kind of whatevers. If there's more
Speaker 1: targets to go around, they probably go to Tyler Boyde.
Speaker 1: You know what's a crazy trade out with out there.
Speaker 1: I would trade a Marity Cooper for Tyler Boyd right now,
Speaker 1: No way, yes, wow, Why wouldn't you? With their complete
Speaker 1: opposites totally. Tyler board is consistent weekend and week out.
Speaker 1: Ma Cooper, you don't know what you're gonna get out
Speaker 1: of the guy. We can more, dude, if they're Mark
Speaker 1: Cooper Tyler Boyd, you can get more. So you're saying
Speaker 1: a Mark Cooper for Tyler Boyd in another piece, Yes,
Speaker 1: I think the perception is that you can get more.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't you. That's crazy. I love it. I hate him,
Speaker 1: you know, you know I hate a Mark Cooper. That's awesome.
Speaker 1: And in one leekue right now, I'm trying to get
Speaker 1: both of them. It seems like a mistaken Well, you know,
Speaker 1: I get the consistency of Tyler Boyd to balance out
Speaker 1: the inconsistency of Marity Cooper. So the third consecutive week,
Speaker 1: you're telling me he's telling the fans to go out
Speaker 1: and buy Odell Beckham Jr. As As you know, we've
Speaker 1: talked a lot of the giants in the Jets downstairs.
Speaker 1: But when it comes to the giants, they don't throw
Speaker 1: the ball down Field's very tough for O'Dell Beckham Jr.
Speaker 1: To do anything when they don't target, and he's been
Speaker 1: I believe on Sunday there are six pass attempts inside
Speaker 1: the red zone and Odell Becka wasn't even looked at
Speaker 1: for five of them. And I don't'm not exaggerating with that.
Speaker 1: He's been basically use this decoy. Pat Shermer said after
Speaker 1: the game, Well, if he's double covered like somebody else
Speaker 1: is open, we're not forcing it. Burero Dowuckham Jr. You
Speaker 1: want the ball forced to you. If you're a fantasy owner,
Speaker 1: you want the ball forced him. Clearly, the Giants have
Speaker 1: not made any efforts to go down the field and
Speaker 1: and nor forced their ball the ball to their best player.
Speaker 1: Yet you're still buying high at Odell. At what point
Speaker 1: do you believe that you're just gonna be like, hey,
Speaker 1: giants are not doing what they need to do here.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the targets chair, I'm looking at the
Speaker 1: fact that he hasn't scored any touchdounds yet this season,
Speaker 1: and I'm looking at the fact that he has four
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty one air yards on the season, greg
Speaker 1: which is eleventh most among wide receivers, so I think
Speaker 1: at some point those long touchdowns are going to come.
Speaker 1: I know that we've spoken a lot about opposing defenses
Speaker 1: playing um kind of a zone defense and not letting
Speaker 1: anyone beat them. But Odell Beckham is good enough where
Speaker 1: and we've seen this many times where you know he
Speaker 1: could just take a quick slant and go to the
Speaker 1: house like it's certainly possible, or you know he can
Speaker 1: get behind the defense to like even if they're playing
Speaker 1: his own Like, I think better days are coming and
Speaker 1: the Odell Beckham, oh, especially if they're under five hundred
Speaker 1: or if they're struggling this year, they're probably looking at
Speaker 1: it like I haven't gotten what I expected out of
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham. So if there if there's an owner in
Speaker 1: your league that has him and is struggling is two
Speaker 1: and two or worse, they're saying, look, I probably need
Speaker 1: to turn Odell Beckham into like two high end wide
Speaker 1: receiver twos or two wide receiver twos overall. They might
Speaker 1: need depth. And that's the kind of owner that I'm
Speaker 1: trying to pray on right now, because I do think
Speaker 1: that there are better days ahead for Odell Beckham and
Speaker 1: you tying to sound like you're on the opposite end,
Speaker 1: like you so obviously, like you're closer to it. You see,
Speaker 1: like how posing defenses are playing to them like you
Speaker 1: you have the patch Shermer quotes like they're not gonna
Speaker 1: for It's kind of like the Julio Jones effect, right,
Speaker 1: Like they're not going to force feed him in the
Speaker 1: red zone if someone else is open and he's being
Speaker 1: double team correct. But I think more touchdowns are going
Speaker 1: to come from outside the red zone. He's not gonna
Speaker 1: finish the year with zero touchdowns. And in the game
Speaker 1: where he gets a hundred yards and gets a touchdown,
Speaker 1: now on top of him, those are the games where
Speaker 1: he's the top five, top three wide receiver for the week.
Speaker 1: We know the tallenges there, we know that he's healthy,
Speaker 1: so I completely understand wanting to buy him again as
Speaker 1: the Giants fan, as the Odell Beck Coum owner. It's
Speaker 1: frustrating and has been quite frustrating thus far during the season.
Speaker 1: Who it hasn't been frustrating for is the Rams wide receivers.
Speaker 1: We opened last Friday up talking about how good these
Speaker 1: guys are all at least wide receiver uose, but it's
Speaker 1: a trade show, So I have to ask when it
Speaker 1: comes to Brandon Cooks, Robert Woods and Cooper Cup are
Speaker 1: you buying them, selling them, or holding them? I'm holding them. Uh.
Speaker 1: It never hurts to try and shop your players just
Speaker 1: to see what you can get, because obviously all three
Speaker 1: of these guys are performing right now, as you know
Speaker 1: in a lead, I own two of them, so I
Speaker 1: you know, this is actually the personal question because I
Speaker 1: don't really know what to do with them. Do I do,
Speaker 1: I look to improve? Do I hold? And that's why
Speaker 1: I bring it up. And I know you know, Corey
Speaker 1: obviously went on a rant about this on Friday, and
Speaker 1: I understand it might be frustrating again if you own
Speaker 1: two of these guys to try and get both of
Speaker 1: them in your lineup on a weekly basis. But with
Speaker 1: the Rams offenses playing right now, especially last week against
Speaker 1: the Vikings defense, which okay, maybe we overrated coming into
Speaker 1: the year, but really I think they were at a
Speaker 1: quickly rated because they have a lot of talent on
Speaker 1: the defensive side of the football the Minnesota Vikings do,
Speaker 1: and the Rams still wiped the floor with them. What
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh is able to do in terms of scheming
Speaker 1: like Cooper Cup. Physically, he's not like a top ten
Speaker 1: physical talent in the league right now. But the way
Speaker 1: that Sean McVeigh is able to scheme these guys and
Speaker 1: get them open, uh. And the way that he you know,
Speaker 1: is they're basically wide open down the field with nobody
Speaker 1: around them scoring touchdowns. Um, and he's using all three
Speaker 1: of them kind of in a similar fashion. All three
Speaker 1: can scream passes, all three can run all the routes
Speaker 1: that you want. I'm holding, I mean, unless you're getting
Speaker 1: blown away. Let And that's why I say, like, it
Speaker 1: never hurts to shop guys just to seek because you
Speaker 1: know someone in your league might value Cooper Cup, or
Speaker 1: especially after what he did last week, they might value
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup in the top twelve wide receiver. I don't
Speaker 1: know that so much, Like people react hard one way,
Speaker 1: and and people, you know, view these guys as higher
Speaker 1: than what they actually are, because I think all three
Speaker 1: are kind of like wide RECEIPR two's right now. If
Speaker 1: anyone ranks them higher than that, and yeah, you obviously
Speaker 1: try and shop. Let me use some of the names
Speaker 1: that we've thrown out there already, A Maori Cooper and
Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd. How would you rate those guys in comparison
Speaker 1: to the Rams. I wouldn't want a Maori Cooper over
Speaker 1: any of the Rams wide receivers, not even Robert Woods,
Speaker 1: just because I know Robert Woods might not get the
Speaker 1: target share that Amari Cooper can get on a given week.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be much more consistent than Tea yeah overall.
Speaker 1: And you know, look, that's not toooper with the Raiders
Speaker 1: offense because they've been putting up yards definitely, they just
Speaker 1: haven't scored touchdowns. And this week is the week where
Speaker 1: we really saw that positive touchdown regression come for the
Speaker 1: Raiders because they were moving the football, they just weren't
Speaker 1: able to score a touchdown. So we saw that happen
Speaker 1: this week. So I'm not going to completely bury the
Speaker 1: Raiders offense because I think it's better than we realized.
Speaker 1: But it's just the Rams offense is just on a
Speaker 1: completely So I wouldn't trade any of the Rams wide
Speaker 1: receivers to get um to get a Marii Cooper. If
Speaker 1: you can turn Robert Woods into Tyler Boyd right now,
Speaker 1: I might do that. I think you can, just because
Speaker 1: I think Tyler Tyler Boyd might even be more consistent
Speaker 1: then Robert Woods, just because he's going to see more targets.
Speaker 1: And I trust the Bengals offense a lot right now.
Speaker 1: That's something that I ever thought that I would say.
Speaker 1: But the other two Cooks and Cooper Cup, I feel
Speaker 1: I feel stronger about those two than I do Tyler Boyd.
Speaker 1: But if you could turn Woods into Boyd, that's something
Speaker 1: I would consider doing again. Wide receiver. For wide receiver trades,
Speaker 1: it feels like they don't happen all that often. Well, again,
Speaker 1: a lot of it does depend on desperation, Like it's
Speaker 1: only a Robert Woods, was Tyler Bold probably not happening,
Speaker 1: but it could depend on by weeks for certain players
Speaker 1: like Mike Evans is a player that if you're still
Speaker 1: own four, you're probably gonna trade away this week because
Speaker 1: I'm trying to because so here's the situation that I'm in,
Speaker 1: and I know we've talked about this off the air.
Speaker 1: I don't remember if we've talked about it on the
Speaker 1: air this week, but I'm one of three I have
Speaker 1: Mike Evans right now. He's on a by my starting
Speaker 1: three wide receivers this week and my flex and he
Speaker 1: stills Chris Hogan, Mike Williams, and Sammy Watkins, wh I
Speaker 1: don't even know he's gonna play. So I'm trying to
Speaker 1: move Mike Evans in my league this week, and that's
Speaker 1: the league where I might have to trade him to
Speaker 1: get Amari Cooper and Tyler Boyd. Again, you don't want to,
Speaker 1: but if you're one in three and you need to
Speaker 1: win this week, like because if you go one in four,
Speaker 1: it's not impossible, but it's pretty damn hard to come
Speaker 1: back from that deficit, at least if I have Cooper
Speaker 1: guys that can help more so than like Kenny Stills
Speaker 1: and are hoping to get to one in four. If
Speaker 1: you had to guess, let's play a game. I love games.
Speaker 1: Where does Cooper Cup rank among wide receivers this season? Nine?
Speaker 1: And I'll turn on the half PPR ranking. You said nine, Yes,
Speaker 1: he's wide receiver four. Okay, what do you think Brandon
Speaker 1: Cooks ranks this season? He's wide receiver eleven? Where do
Speaker 1: you think Robert Woods ranks is here? He's number seventeen,
Speaker 1: will go seventeen, fourteen. All three are top top fifteen
Speaker 1: wide receivers right now. So again, somebody might look at
Speaker 1: that and say, if you know, if you can get
Speaker 1: back wide receiver one value for like any of these guys.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying like in the set and the more
Speaker 1: savvy leagues that that's going to happen, but like all
Speaker 1: three of these wide receivers have more Fantasy points than
Speaker 1: Judu Smith, Suster, Vante Adams, Tyler boyd Antonio Brown, John Brown,
Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay, t Y Hilton, Jarvis Landry. Like, would you
Speaker 1: trade Robert Woods for Jarvis Landry? I would do that
Speaker 1: because I trust the targets more for Jarvis Landry. But
Speaker 1: somebody who's reactionary and sees what the Rams are doing
Speaker 1: right now might say, all right, look they're gonna score
Speaker 1: this many points weekend in week out, So if you
Speaker 1: can turn Robert Wood into Jarvis Landry, somebody I would
Speaker 1: look into. I just asked Beckham right now, why did
Speaker 1: receiver he has point one more fantasy point than Jordy Nelson.
Speaker 1: To put that in perspective for you, great Marty Cooper,
Speaker 1: why did Steve thirty three? Do you want to keep
Speaker 1: that guy on your team? I hate him. I didn't
Speaker 1: draft him anyway. Well, that's why I said I would
Speaker 1: trade him for Tyler Boyd. I get it, man, I
Speaker 1: get where you are. Am I am I buying Tyler
Speaker 1: Boyd too high? Might be it's just scary. It just
Speaker 1: is a couple of weeks ago, I said after that
Speaker 1: first big game for will Fuller, I said, I'm buying high.
Speaker 1: What is will Fuller done? Since then? He scored a
Speaker 1: touchdown in the next two games. Now he's banged up.
Speaker 1: I couldn't predict injuries or re injuries rather, but you know,
Speaker 1: if I have a feeling on one of these guys
Speaker 1: and I think that they're gonna keep it up, and
Speaker 1: other people are not as much buying into them, Tyler Boyd, man,
Speaker 1: I'm just I buy it. You've spoken a lot about
Speaker 1: buying Tyler Boyd, loving Tyler Boyd, Calvin Ridley, So Calvin Ridley.
Speaker 1: I have him as a hold right now, just because
Speaker 1: I feel like the consensus the obvious thing to do
Speaker 1: is sell him based on his target chair because he's
Speaker 1: converting not a massive amount of targets, because Julio Jones
Speaker 1: is always going to control the targets, and he's going
Speaker 1: to demand the most targets on this team, Like he's
Speaker 1: a double digit target monster, there's no doubt about that.
Speaker 1: And what Calvin Ridley is doing right now. Let's see
Speaker 1: where Calvin Ridley ranks. Calvin Ridley is wide receiver six
Speaker 1: right now and he's done that on twenty one targets,
Speaker 1: So that has a lot of that feels a lot
Speaker 1: like Will Fuller from last year when we were like,
Speaker 1: all right, regression is coming. He's not going to score
Speaker 1: touchdowns at this rate in terms of, you know, every
Speaker 1: three or four receptions he's scoring a touchdown, Like that's
Speaker 1: not going to continue to happen. So the obvious reaction
Speaker 1: might be to sell high on Calvin Ridley. And I
Speaker 1: just think based on how bad the Falcons defense is
Speaker 1: now and how injured they are, they're gonna be in
Speaker 1: so many shootouts, um where I'm just gonna continue riding
Speaker 1: out with Calvin Ridley. So unless you're getting wide receiver
Speaker 1: to value for him right now, because I value him
Speaker 1: more so it's like a high end wide receiver three,
Speaker 1: which might be a little bit boom or bust ee
Speaker 1: later on in the season, but I'm buying this offense
Speaker 1: right now. I'm buying how bad their defense is, They're
Speaker 1: gonna be in a lot of shootouts. Uh, And I
Speaker 1: think Calvin Ridley, as a season goes on, gonna play more.
Speaker 1: I think the target share might start to swing his
Speaker 1: way in terms of he's number two on the team,
Speaker 1: not Mohammed Sanu. So I'm just gonna hold unless I'm
Speaker 1: kind of getting fair value for Calvin Realle in return.
Speaker 1: I honestly agree with that. Um, it's very, very tough
Speaker 1: to buy him right now because you're buying the peak
Speaker 1: right Like you're buying him thinking he's obviously not scoring
Speaker 1: two touchdowns or three touchdowns every single game, So what
Speaker 1: are you gonna offer? Like, what can you receive for that?
Speaker 1: And I get it, but selling him, as Frank mentioned,
Speaker 1: the Falcon Stevens is bad, Like they're going to being
Speaker 1: shootout after shootout after shootout. And yes, you could point
Speaker 1: to snap percentage and you could point a touchdown percentage
Speaker 1: and I get it, right, I I totally totally get it.
Speaker 1: He's going to regress, Like is the offer that you
Speaker 1: get going and be good enough? I don't know, And
Speaker 1: that's something we we can't probably figure out. But there's
Speaker 1: something to be said for riding the way. There's something
Speaker 1: to be said for that trust factor. There's clearly a
Speaker 1: trust factor between Matt Ryan and Calvin Realley that has
Speaker 1: grown over the past couple of weeks. They look for
Speaker 1: him in the red zone and it's the Odell that
Speaker 1: coind of thing we just talked about, and you compared
Speaker 1: to Hulia Jones, and you're right. When Hulia Jones is
Speaker 1: double and triple covered in the red zone, Steve Sarkisian
Speaker 1: is not making he's not getting the ball there, he's
Speaker 1: not designing places to get the ball there. And they've
Speaker 1: been extremely efficient in the red zone this year too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the crazy part. They haven't been any time they
Speaker 1: get into the red zone. They're scoring touchdowns. So while
Speaker 1: us this fantasy owners, we're freaking out, why isn't Julio
Speaker 1: Jones scoring touchdowns every single year? It's the same thing.
Speaker 1: They're not scoring He's not scoring touchdowns. You have to
Speaker 1: think about this from an NFL perspective. They don't care
Speaker 1: about fantasy football. They're scoring points. They might not be
Speaker 1: winning games of falcons, but that's not the offense is fault.
Speaker 1: Because the offense is putting up points. It's their defense,
Speaker 1: which is terrible now because they have so many injuries
Speaker 1: and that's not their fault either. In football a battle
Speaker 1: of attrition. But the Falcons are scoring points and that's
Speaker 1: coming with Calvin Ridley scoring touchdowns, so he's going to
Speaker 1: continue to get those looks. I completely agree. I completely
Speaker 1: He's the fifth was traded player on Yahoo right now?
Speaker 1: Would you like to hear the four ahead of him?
Speaker 1: Is just? Would you? Would you have some trades like
Speaker 1: Howard Lee's been in? I can, I can pull that
Speaker 1: up for you. Okay, what the top five most traded
Speaker 1: players right now? And Yahoo? Levian Bell again, like get it?
Speaker 1: I understand just when people ask us to levon belt
Speaker 1: trade questions, they're hard to answer. Leonard four net number two,
Speaker 1: which based on this news, I hope you traded him
Speaker 1: away while you could have Dalvin Cook number three, Lordon
Speaker 1: Howard number four, a guy that we spoke about, baffle Man.
Speaker 1: Baffle Man. It makes sense. Undard Fournett though, It's like
Speaker 1: either way, how how can you trade him away? What
Speaker 1: are you getting for him in return? And why are
Speaker 1: you buying him? Regardless even if you're four and oh
Speaker 1: are you buying Letter Fournett? I'm not I get it.

Speaker 1: or opening up the phone lines right now for you
Speaker 1: to get your trade questions and maybe got some interesting
Speaker 1: ones in our YouTube chat, Frank, Yeah, So we had
Speaker 1: a question where someone asked do I treat Calvin Realley
Speaker 1: to get Odell Beckham? And that's what I'm talking about,
Speaker 1: like people being reactionary, and that's obviously an easy no
Speaker 1: for me. Like if I were if I were the
Speaker 1: Calvin really owner, if I can get Odell Beckham, like
Speaker 1: absolutely I would try to do that, but I would
Speaker 1: not trade Calvin Realley away to get Odell Beckham. Another
Speaker 1: question we got was Cooper Cup for Keenan Allen. God
Speaker 1: bless you drinks us. And that's another one where like,
Speaker 1: just like I said before, if you can turn one
Speaker 1: of these rams wide receivers into a wide receiver one.
Speaker 1: And I know like people might have trepidation on Keenan
Speaker 1: Allen right now because he has not played like a
Speaker 1: wide receiver one. But if you remember last year, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it was around the week five or weeks
Speaker 1: six point we were worried about Keenan Allen last year too,
Speaker 1: and then he just turned it on keen And now
Speaker 1: let's see where he ranks right now. He's wide receiver
Speaker 1: thirty seven's two eight two yards and one touchdown. Are
Speaker 1: you worried about Keenan Allen? Maybe I don't own him anywhere.
Speaker 1: I'm not. I have to look into it. More like
Speaker 1: he's still on the field a ton. The offense is
Speaker 1: still very good. Why why is Keenan Allen doing this?
Speaker 1: I think it's because the running backs honestly are dominating
Speaker 1: targets right Like, Keenan Allen is not getting as many
Speaker 1: targets this year as he's used to. He's got seven
Speaker 1: targets in all four games. He had ten targets in
Speaker 1: San Francisco seven over sixty three. It's not a bad game.
Speaker 1: Six or sixty seven, eight for one of eight and
Speaker 1: a Touchdine, I'm not worried about Keenan Allen. Dude. Ian
Speaker 1: Allen had a hundred and fifty nine targets last year,
Speaker 1: so so right around ten targets per game on average.
Speaker 1: And you're saying he's getting about seven targets over the
Speaker 1: past what three weeks? Is that? What it is? He
Speaker 1: hasn't had double digit Oh yeah, yeah, yeah this past week. Okay,
Speaker 1: and they're scoring points, right like this team scoring points.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be a better days had at least seven
Speaker 1: targets in every game. He's had double digit targets in
Speaker 1: two of four games. I'm with you. Yeah, if you
Speaker 1: get Keenan Allen on the cheap right now, Keenan Allen
Speaker 1: and Odell Beckham those were two Allen, What do you
Speaker 1: think of that? Yeah, if you can. Again, like someone
Speaker 1: in the YouTube chat asked, should they trade Cooper cup
Speaker 1: away for Keenan Allen or vice versa? And I would
Speaker 1: rather would you rather have Cooper cover keen Dowen? Though
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen. You'd still rather have Keena down. I'm with you,
Speaker 1: oh my with you any of them WI. So he's
Speaker 1: really part of the problem, right, Like I'm looking at
Speaker 1: the Keenan Allen owner in one of my leagues. Keenan
Speaker 1: now was his wide receiver one obviously right, he drafted
Speaker 1: them in the second round. His other wide receivers is
Speaker 1: or Michael Crabtree, Jamison Crowder. Those are bad. He needs
Speaker 1: he needs, he needs me. But is he the trade
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen four? He needs me. He's not gonna trade
Speaker 1: Keenan out of a Cooper Cup straight up. He's not
Speaker 1: gonna do that. So who are your other wide receivers?
Speaker 1: Because that guy needs depth. So if you give him
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup and like another solid wide receiver three, that
Speaker 1: probably helps his team. Well that's the problem. Like you
Speaker 1: don't have good depth. I I have a really good story, lad,
Speaker 1: like my wide receivers or Cooper Cup, Damante Adams, Robert
Speaker 1: Woods and Calvar Ridley. Like that's good. I don't want
Speaker 1: to I don't want to add in Ridley. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: give me that deal to any two of those to
Speaker 1: get kids, right, So I would give him, have any
Speaker 1: other wide receivers on your bench at all, you know,
Speaker 1: thinking even John Him Allison. That's good. That's it doesn't
Speaker 1: hurt to try. That's not a bad one. Offer Cup
Speaker 1: and Allison four or Keen Allen, and then your weekly
Speaker 1: wide receivers are Vante Adams, Keen, Robert Woods, and Calvim Ridley.
Speaker 1: That's great. I like that. All right, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: out there and do it just texting them eight four, eight, three,
Speaker 1: six seven nine if you have trade questions, three questions,
Speaker 1: not start sick questions, because admittedly I've done like quarters.
Speaker 1: Here's my layout of schedule what I normally do. Right
Speaker 1: Monday nights, I'm doing a lot of recap, definitely, like
Speaker 1: very very early prep for the week. Tuesday's I'm doing
Speaker 1: a lot of like waivers, putting waivers in motal recap
Speaker 1: and kind of like starting to do my quarterback and
Speaker 1: tight end rankings and the week. And then Wednesday is
Speaker 1: where I really dive into like wide wide receivers and
Speaker 1: running backs. Got it, And like from the time I
Speaker 1: get home until I go to sleep, I'm just like
Speaker 1: wide receivers and running back So it's easier for me
Speaker 1: to answer to start two questions on Thursdays and Fridays
Speaker 1: rather than Wednesdays. I want to let you know this
Speaker 1: is a true story that Frank once told me. We
Speaker 1: were having a conversation in the hallway downstairs. He said,
Speaker 1: Greg like, do you know what I do when I
Speaker 1: get home? And I don't know, watch baking shows like
Speaker 1: I do? And he was no, Seriously, I'm like what
Speaker 1: he's like, I just pour over stats from the time
Speaker 1: I get home. That's how I get on the train,
Speaker 1: the time I get home, the time I go to sleep.
Speaker 1: I'm just pouring over stats and listen to podcast on
Speaker 1: the trains. And I'm like, what, what does king you
Speaker 1: think of this? And she's like, whatever, She's gonna leave me.
Speaker 1: That's that's again we're getting a little deep here, probably
Speaker 1: Like I'm like, we're getting loaded here. You're gonna leave me.
Speaker 1: You're gonna leave me one day, because I can tell
Speaker 1: that she's like kind of craze attention, Like obviously, why
Speaker 1: wouldn't she, no doubt? You know, I'm the man um Well, yes,
Speaker 1: something bad's probably gonna happen. Eventually. It's not great, we'll
Speaker 1: give it a new career, you know, like you gotta
Speaker 1: watch the Kardashians every once in a while. They just
Speaker 1: not care as much. I don't know. You know you
Speaker 1: should care. No, not care about fantasies. No, you should.
Speaker 1: It means your job, you love it, do you know?
Speaker 1: At some point? But for me, like I gotta just
Speaker 1: turn off and watch what's making? Yeah, where the marvelous
Speaker 1: Mrs Maisiel I watched. I was watching the baseball game
Speaker 1: last night. I tried to stay up as long as
Speaker 1: I could. I it was up until like twelve thirty.
Speaker 1: I think it was the eleven after the after the
Speaker 1: hour after the same thing. A few things. You don't
Speaker 1: mess with the life. You don't miss my sleep. Right,
Speaker 1: I gotta go to sleep. So I did what I
Speaker 1: did was smart last night? So I had dinner. Do
Speaker 1: you ever watched TV in your bedroom? Yesterday? I was
Speaker 1: because you was watching the Kardashians outside, So I was watching.
Speaker 1: You never go into the bedroom while she's sleeping and
Speaker 1: like watch TV. I have on silent though, because the
Speaker 1: sound on then, but for last night it was it
Speaker 1: was great. So I we went inside. Right, I was
Speaker 1: watching TV um in my room and she was wating
Speaker 1: TV outside. And then we had dinner. After dinner, I
Speaker 1: wound out what we watched two episodes of the Mrs Masil.
Speaker 1: We finished the finished the season is Mrs It's a
Speaker 1: bunch of Emmys, don't I have his own Prime? You
Speaker 1: hit it, but it's a very me show. How do
Speaker 1: you spell it? The marvelous Mrs Masiel? And Ai s
Speaker 1: e l But it's about a about the fifties and
Speaker 1: it's a common Mrs Greg's miss it's marvelous, Mrs Maisl
Speaker 1: it is well, Google auto corrected me anyway. So so
Speaker 1: I did that, watched two episodes while Junie and I
Speaker 1: both put in our waivers because we're both at least
Speaker 1: we're going over our waivers together. And then after that
Speaker 1: she's like, I'm tired. I'm going to bed. Perfect, I
Speaker 1: got two hours of the baseball game in working out great?
Speaker 1: That did work out very well for you, Perfect, She's
Speaker 1: I'm tired. You care if I go to bed? I
Speaker 1: absolutely not. I watched the baseball game? And do you
Speaker 1: care if I go to bed? Which she wants to
Speaker 1: make sure. I don't want her to hang out like tonight,
Speaker 1: like if she hasked me to go to bed during
Speaker 1: the Yankee game. And be like, no, you gotta stay.
Speaker 1: So what would you say, Like, what's the fair thing
Speaker 1: that I should do? I should probably give us some
Speaker 1: TV time. You give her some time just hang out
Speaker 1: and watch whatever she wants to watch. Not the whole night,
Speaker 1: but some time. I quoted ash catch him last night
Speaker 1: when I was talking to her, so I could tell
Speaker 1: that she was like annoyed. She was visibly like, we should,
Speaker 1: you know, spend some time together. I'm like, I want
Speaker 1: to be the very best. So here's the thing I
Speaker 1: think when you when you know one ever, was when
Speaker 1: you get home from work? To catch them? Is my
Speaker 1: real question? Right when you get home from work, like
Speaker 1: maybe not go right back into the staff. We're spending
Speaker 1: time tonight together because we're watching the Yankees together, which
Speaker 1: is probably not her idea of let's go, let's let's
Speaker 1: go to Marvelous in Chicago, marvelous. What's out now? We're
Speaker 1: taking your calls right now? Four four seven nine, what's up?
Speaker 1: A good afternoon? I had to trade questions. I was
Speaker 1: wondering if I could bank amount. If not, that's fine, yeah,
Speaker 1: let's do it. Okay. So the first one is I
Speaker 1: have Leonard Fournette, who I lost last week, and I
Speaker 1: dropped the yelding like an idiot getting greedy. I picked
Speaker 1: up Lindsay. So I was wondering, I have a trade
Speaker 1: offer right now for uh for Lynch for carry On Johnson.
Speaker 1: She should I Should I hit that trade? Or should
Speaker 1: I try to get like a yelled In or James White. Wait,
Speaker 1: so you're getting Lynch for carry On or you're getting
Speaker 1: one of those players for Leonard Fournette. No, I'm getting Carrie.
Speaker 1: I'm getting Lynch for carry On Johnson. I would yes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm hearting that, Like I think, I think it's kind
Speaker 1: of a wash. I trust Marshall Lynch more because of
Speaker 1: the workload that he's getting. Right now, what's your record?
Speaker 1: My record in this league is embarrassing, dude. I'm like
Speaker 1: going for and then it happens the best of us.
Speaker 1: You need to make trades. I'm all right doing this
Speaker 1: because carry On Johnson is more of like I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, if you're three and one are better carry
Speaker 1: on john I would keep carry On because it's more
Speaker 1: of like a forward looking move where I think over
Speaker 1: maybe like the second half of the season, we start
Speaker 1: to like see carry On Johnson get unleased, even though
Speaker 1: that idiot Matt Patricia said that carry on Johnson. He's
Speaker 1: fine with his workload right now, getting nine carries a
Speaker 1: game or whatever it is. You're an idiot, Mat Patricia.
Speaker 1: But if you need help now Marshaw Lynch, based on
Speaker 1: his workload and frankly what he's done behind that Raiders
Speaker 1: offensive line, yeah, I'm all right doing that. I'll take
Speaker 1: Marshall Lynch. What was your other trade question? My other
Speaker 1: one is, um, I heard you guys talking about Freeman yesterday.
Speaker 1: I was thinking about trading Freeman for Howard, but then
Speaker 1: I thought that's kind of a wash. But then you
Speaker 1: mentioned Mixing and seeing that I have Giovanni Bernard, I
Speaker 1: think that's that might be a good pick up for me.
Speaker 1: So what were you? So you have Howard a Freeman,
Speaker 1: is it DeVonta Freeman and Royce I have? I have
Speaker 1: DeVante Freeman, and uh I have Giovanni Bernard and I
Speaker 1: was looking maybe move Freeman for Mixing and lock up that.
Speaker 1: So that's so that's something I would do if I
Speaker 1: were you. I mean, I think you're own four, just tough,
Speaker 1: but you need to win now like so, and we
Speaker 1: just we gotta league this league here, I'm two and two, okay,
Speaker 1: if that lead I would do for you. I would
Speaker 1: do Freeman for Mixing. I would do that if I
Speaker 1: was Yeah, because you have Giovanni Bernard exactly, exactly exactly,
Speaker 1: and Melvin Gordon is my RB one. So that that,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's really that's a really good tend on them.
Speaker 1: A four four eight four three seven nts to our
Speaker 1: buddy Constantina New York. What's so Constantine? Hey? Everybody got
Speaker 1: stage for it? Yeah? Cos, hey, you know what's Hey? Guys,
Speaker 1: how are you guys doing? Great? Man? What's going on? Nothing?
Speaker 1: I gotta trade. I really want to get in, and
Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to accept it or not.
Speaker 1: I was twelve in the wave the order and I
Speaker 1: got Peki uh, and I've got an offer for Mike
Speaker 1: Williams for TK. I don't know if I want to
Speaker 1: do it though. All right, Mike Williams for Kiki key
Speaker 1: crude at that? Why is that a thing? That's why
Speaker 1: you're saying his name like that? Mike Williams for Kiki
Speaker 1: um Man. Yeah. I still think Mike Williams has more
Speaker 1: upside for the season, but it's close. I mean the
Speaker 1: fact that I had to think about it. Yeah, like PPR,
Speaker 1: Keki might have more upside, you know, so much dependent
Speaker 1: on will Fler, like if Willfuler is healthier, not like
Speaker 1: if he misses a significant time. Then yeah, Keiki has
Speaker 1: more upset than Mike Williams. But I think for the
Speaker 1: entirety of the season, I would still rather have Mike Williams.
Speaker 1: But it is a closer discussion than it should be.
Speaker 1: Mike Williams, Well, the usage is there, Yeah, like it
Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily there last week because it's targets have been
Speaker 1: trending in the right direction and then he just didn't
Speaker 1: last week, Like it just didn't happen. Um, but I
Speaker 1: expect just because I expect, this doesn't mean the Chargers
Speaker 1: are going to do it, but um, I would expect
Speaker 1: his targets to consistently go up as the season goes on.
Speaker 1: Like I in my opinion, what it should be is
Speaker 1: it should be a lot of Keenan Allen, Melvin Gordon, yep,
Speaker 1: Austin Neck was still gonna get some targets, but Mike
Speaker 1: Williams should be getting like five to seven targets per game,
Speaker 1: like we we want Tyrone Williams and like Travis Benjamin
Speaker 1: and those guys kind of just like to get phased
Speaker 1: out because we wanted to happen. Doesn't mean it's going to.
Speaker 1: But I think that Mike Williams has flash enough talent
Speaker 1: this year where like at some point the Chargers realized,
Speaker 1: and maybe it takes them, like losing a couple of
Speaker 1: games to realize, like, all right, we have to stop
Speaker 1: fan around. We have to get Mike Williams more involved.
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be the case. Eight four four
Speaker 1: eight four three six seven nine. You're on the line.
Speaker 1: When you get to your call in the next five minutes,
Speaker 1: we are gonna sign off YouTube now. Of course we

Speaker 1: in San Diego. What's up Francisco? You know what's going
Speaker 1: on for others? What's up man Chill? And I just
Speaker 1: have a quick question because uh, last week you guys
Speaker 1: were on the show with Dr A and uh, I've
Speaker 1: seen in Allen, so I'm like worried, you know, but
Speaker 1: I'm sitting decently and this is the Work League, so it's,
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of pride on the line. I'm
Speaker 1: three and one, Um, I have a decent death. But
Speaker 1: I was wondering if I should pair up keen and
Speaker 1: Allen with mark Ingram and try to shoot for like
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey or like you know, shoot for the sky
Speaker 1: and get like try to get taught Gurley. Like if
Speaker 1: if mark Ingram does good this week, yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I don't know that's how girly
Speaker 1: owners going to do that. But like, the only way
Speaker 1: I can make a trade like this is if you
Speaker 1: have really good depth, like you meet death all around,
Speaker 1: Like if you have a ton of running backs and
Speaker 1: you have you have strong wide receivers, especially if you're
Speaker 1: trading away Keenan Allen to get a running back in return,
Speaker 1: Like your wide receivers outside of Keenan Allen better be
Speaker 1: pretty damn good if you're gonna trade him away to
Speaker 1: try to improve your running backs. They're Steff Digs. I
Speaker 1: have step Digs, Cooper cub Um, Tyler, Boyd, Kenny goll
Speaker 1: Day and Geronimo Allison because I listened to why you
Speaker 1: Know all day because I worked all side, So I
Speaker 1: just pop in my headphone appreciate and you guys like
Speaker 1: through the draft season, Man, I'm chilling it because of
Speaker 1: you guys like, let's just dried. Yeah, I get it, man,
Speaker 1: And I know what. I honestly really like your wide
Speaker 1: receivers outside of Keenan Allen. So yeah, if you can
Speaker 1: make that happen, if you can understand Keenan Allen and
Speaker 1: mark ingram into like a top five workhorse running back,
Speaker 1: if you need help there, I don't have a problem
Speaker 1: with it. Totally agree with him. Let's hit up Wesley
Speaker 1: in Northern California. Let's going to Wesley. What's happening, Fellas?

Speaker 1: to you, guys. I have a trade offer that I made,
Speaker 1: and I know that I can get it if I
Speaker 1: wanted Geronimo Allison and I give away Michael Crabtree. No no, no,
Speaker 1: no no no no no no no no no no
Speaker 1: give away Michael Crabtree to get Geronimo Allison. No no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no no. Why wouldn't you though, Because Geronimo Allison's
Speaker 1: can cust and Michael Crabtree is better. Michael Crabtree hasn't
Speaker 1: been that good touchdown. But he's no, he doesn't doesn't.
Speaker 1: He's been a borderline he's a borderline drop double player
Speaker 1: at this point. Really, yes, he hasn't been good like
Speaker 1: as you own Michael Crabtree. You don't realize how good
Speaker 1: he's been because Geronimo Allison is can cust I probably
Speaker 1: wouldn't make the trade. Here's the thing. You're still getting
Speaker 1: targets to ten ten targets and two or four games.
Speaker 1: Eight targets last week targets the scored touchdowns this week
Speaker 1: one target touch touched. There keep keep microcraft could cost
