1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: The most valuable commandity I know of his information.

2
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 2: I got five dollars. This is a rating of cowboy

3
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 2: tackle shiite.

4
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 1: You're saying that humans need fantasy to make life bearable.

5
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: Humans need fantasy to be human.

6
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, that's mis.

7
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: Prone, the best, relentless, refusing to give up.

8
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: All right, hit that horn, baby bless the.

9
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Fantasy Flex podcast from the Action Network

10
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: and Fantasy Labs. I'm your host, Chris Raybon. Today we're

11
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 1: going to discuss pre season fantasy football risers and fallers.

12
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: As always, I'm joined by one of the most accurate

13
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: rankers in the business, the odds maker, Sean Turner. Shawn,

14
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: what's up?

15
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 2: It's up? Yeah, I had another good weekend of preseason.

16
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 2: I think I went like seven and four over the

17
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 2: weekend on size and totals, and I pretty much watched

18
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 2: like every game at least when like relevant fantasy players

19
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 2: were in there. So you know a lot of players

20
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 2: saw their stock go up and down over the weekend,

21
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: and yeah, happy to dive in right now.

22
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. I made one bet and I didn't post it

23
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: in the app because you know the kind of bet,

24
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: you know, these bets. I was asked the Rams Chargers

25
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 1: for the season. The Rams are down six to three,

26
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: and I took the Live Ram money line because I

27
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: was like, the Chargers backups were just terrible. I mean

28
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: they their depth is hideous and it ended up working

29
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: out so but yeah, didn't didn't get to see a

30
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: Pooka and Akua, but did get to see some more

31
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: Jordan Whittington. He looked pretty good. So Kamani Vidal try

32
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:49,559
Speaker 1: to salvage.

33
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: His He looked pretty good, right, He looked solid this week.

34
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: None of the Chargers I made well. It was bad

35
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 1: all round. I mean, he looked he looked better in

36
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: week one, but he didn't look like a guy who

37
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: is jumping Russ or JK, you know, barring barring injury. Yeah,

38
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean we have a lot to talk

39
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: about here. This is one of my favorite episodes because

40
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: we're just kind of knee deep in our rank. As

41
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: you mentioned, you're watching every game. I'm doing the same thing,

42
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: and so we're kind of just updating as we go,

43
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: and there are some significant changes, especially you know in

44
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: that kind of fringe starter range, you know, wide receiver

45
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: four or five range, running back three four or five range,

46
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 1: and a lot of times those picks are really the

47
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: league winners. Those picks are the picks that are going

48
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: to decide your draft. So I encourage people to spend

49
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 1: more time in those picks and don't get hung up

50
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 1: on who you are gonna take in the first round.

51
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: In the second round, I mean, you know, there's not

52
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 1: too many ways to go wrong and or right. There's

53
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: just less of a range of outcomes in that range,

54
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: and it's more about how you kind of strategized beyond

55
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,959
Speaker 1: you know, those first few picks. So I always like

56
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: to mention that off the top. But before we dive

57
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: in into to day's episode, I just want to quickly

69
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: a lot of these young guys playing in the preseason.

70
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: We've seen who's resting, which can be valuable information at

71
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: times as well, and we've seen who's injured. So with

72
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: that being said, let's go position by position. We'll start

73
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: with quarterback. Who is rising on your draft board after

74
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 1: two weeks of the preseason.

75
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so last week, I think it goes without saying,

76
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 2: but Sam Darnold is climbing my QB rinks, you know,

77
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 2: after JJ McCarthy, you know, unfortunately suffered, you know, his

78
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: moniscous injury that will force him to miss his entire

79
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 2: rookie season. I took that gamble in our quarterback rookie

80
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: draft and it didn't pay off. But McCarthy looked really

81
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 2: good and his limited time, so looking forward to see

82
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 2: him next year. But that does mean that Sam Donald

83
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 2: will I already expected him to be the Vikings Week

84
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: one starter, but he should, you know, have enough job

85
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 2: security to really start for them as long as he's healthy.

86
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 2: I think, you know, if he struggles, he could get

87
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 2: replaced by Nick Mullins or Jarenhall. But I would imagine

88
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 2: he would have to struggle quite a bit for that

89
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: to happen. And you know, while Donald might not be

90
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 2: as good as Cousins, he's got that far off and

91
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 2: he does have solid weapons and you know, justin Jefferson,

92
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 2: Jordan Edison and TJ. Howkinson. Once he's back, you know,

93
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 2: closer to mid season, so you know, he could be

94
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,799
Speaker 2: you know, a guy you target in two QB super

95
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: Flex or bestball leagues right around that QB twenty five range.

96
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 2: I think he saw there just given this offense. Plus

97
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 2: he does have some sneaky rushing upside. Back in twenty

98
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 2: twenty two he had nineteen or more rushing yards and

99
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 2: four of his six start So he's a guy that

100
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 2: you know, I think people are probably overlooking going into

101
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 2: the season, But now if McCarthy injured, you know, I

102
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 2: think he's sneaky once you get outside the top twenty

103
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 2: five there that quarterback.

104
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you look at the Viking schedule, I

105
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: mean they're gonna have some games where they are going

106
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: to need to score points. So I don't think they

107
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: could just rely on, you know, a run heavy attack

108
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: just because Donald is now the quarterback. I think they're

109
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: still gonna have to throw the football injuries or not.

110
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, some sneaky upside, although I'm kind of low key.

111
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: I'm hoping for some nicky Mullens just because I feel

112
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: like he's just maximizes justin Jefferson's upside, because he just

113
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: throws throws it all around the yard and throw four

114
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: picks and four hundred yards.

115
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay jamis Winston style exactly.

116
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: So I kind of clamoring low key for for some Moens.

117
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: But uh yeah, and I'm probably gonna be on the

118
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: Vikings week one against the Giants. Uh the Giants, No, don't.

119
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: I don't want anything to do with it. But for me,

120
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: the first guy I'll talk about here, Bo Nicks. I

121
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: like what I'm seeing out of bow Knicks, and I

122
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: think that he is going to be able to, uh

123
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: you know, hold this first of all, start in week one,

124
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: and then hold the job all year. Even though Jared

125
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: Stidham's on the roster. Jack Wilson is on the roster

126
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: as well. I think Nicks is really playing well in

127
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: the preseason, and the Bronco offense looks a little bit

128
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: than I expected. You know, they're kind of giving us

129
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: some surprises. That wide receiver. It looks like they're going

130
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: with the really big, big wide receiving corps. Kind of

131
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: hearkens back to the Saints when they had uh, you know,

132
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: Marcus Colston and who's that other they had that other

133
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: tall who's that other big guy in the Saints that

134
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: they coleman or so I forget his name, but they

135
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: just had a bunch of big This is no this

136
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: is in the Colston era, so that's why I'm on it.

137
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, just they had a bunch of tall guys

138
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: and and that's kind of how the Broncos are doing

139
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: it this year. So I do think even though Nix

140
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: is a guy who for the most part is not

141
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: gonna throw it downfield as much, I do think all

142
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: these big wide receivers Sutton Patrick Reynolds are playing with

143
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: the ones for the most part. Uh, that's gonna give

144
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: him some decent passing touchdown upside because you're not gonna

145
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: have all these diminutive, small guys, uh you know that

146
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: aren't really gonna be great in the red zone or

147
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: things like that. So I'm I'm cautiously optimistic on bo Nix,

148
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: and this is a Sean Payton offense. We saw what

149
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: Sean Payton did with the corpse of Russell Wilson last season.

150
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: You know, Wilson actually had some decent numbers that you know,

151
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: did not represent his play at all because he watched him.

152
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: It wasn't good, but at times the numbers were okay.

153
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: So I do think Nix is trending upward this preseason.

154
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. He looks good out there, and he has

155
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 2: some rushing upset as well, so I think he's a

156
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 2: sneaky play down there, like run QB thirty or so.

157
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: What other quarterbacks are you looking at?

158
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, Cayleb Williams. You know, again, I already had

159
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: pretty high expectations for Caleb entering his rookie season, just

160
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: but just considering how good he's looked and the surrounding

161
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 2: talent he has in Chicago. Obviously, he's now moved inside

162
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 2: my top twelve already. So I think he opened up

163
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 2: like QB seventeen before preseason started. But just I've seen

164
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 2: enough to really, you know, bump him up quite a bit.

165
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: He looks excellent on the move, and you know, he's

166
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 2: very Patrick Mahomes Josh Allen esk in terms of making

167
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 2: big plays out of nothing. So I think that he's

168
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: gonna breakout his rookie season. He has the talent surrounding him.

169
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 2: You know, we saw some of that rushing upside again,

170
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 2: you know, this weekend, So it's all coming together for him.

171
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 2: So I'm a little bit more confident just being super

172
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: high on him. And yeah, like I said, he's already

173
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 2: inside my top twelve as we speak.

174
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, quarterback is a position where we've talked

175
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: about this. If you don't draft Jalen Hurts or Lamar

176
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: Jackson or Josh Allen, you're gonna or Patrick Mahomes, you're

177
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: gonna have to play against him. So you know, shoot

178
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: for the fences, shoot for the stars if you're going

179
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: with a late round quarterback. So I have Jayden Daniels

180
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: on my top twelve. I have Caleb Williams in my

181
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: top twelve as well, and I feel pretty good about it.

182
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: Another guy, you know, Garda Minshew. Obviously he wins the

183
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: starting job for the Raiders, so that that gives him

184
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 1: a little bump. Now he should at least be the

185
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: favorite to start more games than Aidan O'Connell. I don't

186
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,199
Speaker 1: know if Minshew holds the job all. Yeah, though you

187
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: know with the coats he was serviceable and got them,

188
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: you know, to the brink, So how many things possible? Also,

189
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: Justin Fields, you know, there's a point in time where

190
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: they they were saying it was no way that Justin

191
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: Field's had a chance to win this job, and they

192
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: sounds like they've changed their tune. And Russell Wilson looked

193
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 1: like crap as he as he has been doing for

194
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: the last couple of years in the first preseason game.

195
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 1: So I think Fields is drawing a little closer to

196
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: Wilson in terms of you know, projected games started. And

197
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: one other guy I'll mention, and you know, he did

198
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 1: throw a long touchdown in the preseason. But really it's

199
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: just because after I finished watching all the preseason games,

200
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: I ended up just watching all of the packer of

201
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: receivers and tight ends just because there's so many of them,

202
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: and I just wanted to kind of refresh myself and

203
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: kind of decide exactly where I want to have all

204
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: these guys. And one one thing that really stood out

205
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: to me is Jordan Love is ridiculous. This guy, this

206
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: guy could win MVP this year. He could be the

207
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: guy where you know, we're looking for that guy that

208
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: quarterback in outside the top ten. You know, we talked

209
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: about Jayden dan As, we talked about Caleb Williams, both

210
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: of them who I think are very good picks. But

211
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: it might, it might very well just be Jordan Love.

212
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy, he has weapons, he has talent.

213
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,719
Speaker 1: He can run if he wants to, he's working on

214
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: the deep ball. He can make some ridiculous throws. He's

215
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,199
Speaker 1: not scared, he can anticipate. He's got accuracy, he's got

216
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: he's got the swag. He's the leader. I just really

217
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: love Jordan this year.

218
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 2: No pun intended, Yeah, yeah, no, He's definitely a top

219
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 2: ten quarterback. And going back to Justin Fields real quick,

220
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 2: we had talked about that that market, that week one

221
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,959
Speaker 2: starter market, and I think it, you know, feels is

222
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 2: like plus eight hundred. He got down to plus two fifty,

223
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 2: but right now it's at plus three fifty. But again,

224
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,959
Speaker 2: like he has so much upside, he has legit you know,

225
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 2: QB one upside, and you know he would also get

226
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 2: a boost if they do end up getting brand Ayuk.

227
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 2: So a lot of pass for Justin Fields to be

228
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: sort of a league winner outside of like the top

229
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 2: thirty right now.

230
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and also remember they're not paying Russell Wilson. They

231
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 1: could he's if he's this garbage, they could just be like,

232
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: fuck it, they get out of here, right, go home,

233
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: go home to Sea Erra bro all right, running back?

234
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: Who is rising up your draft board after the first

235
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: two weeks of this pre season?

236
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: For me, it's Tuba Hubbard. You know, I thought Jonathan

237
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 2: Brooks should start the season slow because he he did

238
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 2: suffer an ACL tear. I think it was in like

239
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 2: late November, so it was a lamber. Yes, yeah, it

240
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: was a late season ACL tear, So I didn't expect

241
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,839
Speaker 2: them to play right away, which was I was shocked.

242
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 2: His ADP was in the mid twenties. I think he's

243
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: the best rookie running back from this class, but it

244
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 2: might not happen this year for him. So Hubbard, you know,

245
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: he might start the first four to five games if

246
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 2: Brooks ends up, you know, landing on the pup list.

247
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 2: Even when he does return, he might not be one

248
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 2: hundred percent and the Panthers might just limit him as rookie.

249
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 2: So Hubbard, you know, is going to offer like early

250
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 2: season value, So if you're a zero RB drafter, you

251
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 2: might need somebody like him to give you, you know,

252
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 2: some RB three flex value early in the season. And

253
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 2: he he Hubbard himself had picked up an injury last week,

254
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 2: but he looks, you know, completely over it, So he

255
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: looks one hundred percent heading week one. So he's a

256
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 2: running back that's been rising up my ranks. Plus there's

257
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 2: been some rumors that Miles Sanders could be on the move,

258
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 2: you know who the note, who knows what the hell's

259
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 2: gonna happen there. But Hubbard could end up being you know,

260
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 2: a top thirty back this year, and you can still

261
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: get him right on RB forty. So he's a back

262
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 2: that's been steadily climbing out my ranks the past few weeks.

263
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had well over two hundred carries last season,

264
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: and now you have Dave canal Is coming over from

265
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, so that the offense should be better, Bryce

266
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: Young should be better, The interior of the one is better,

267
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,079
Speaker 1: and I could see you know, within Hubbard's range of

268
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,439
Speaker 1: outcomes or a Shad White like season, you know that

269
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 1: that kind of usage, because that's that you know, that's

270
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: what Canalis did with White last year, and Hubbard is

271
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,479
Speaker 1: kind of a guy that's I think profiles very similarly.

272
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, especially if Miles Sanders isn't a factor for one,

273
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: you know, either because he's just on the bench or

274
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: because he ends up getting traded, I think Hubbard is

275
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: it is definitely a guy to watch, and yet Brooks

276
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: Brooks is just behind the eight ball. A couple guys

277
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: for me, current Buffalo Bill running back and a former

278
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill running back or a top my list James Cook.

279
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: You know, he essentially has been playing every single snap

280
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: with the first team offense. He's rarely coming off the field,

281
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: and it looks like the number three back, whoever that

282
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: may be, Ty Johnson, maybe Darrynton Evans, looks like that

283
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: role won't be as involved in the offense this year

284
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: as it was down the stretch last year under Joe Brady.

285
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: So I think James Cook, you know, he's got the talent.

286
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: He can catch passes. Even though Josh Allen doesn't profiles

287
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 1: like a checkdown guy. This is an offense that lost

288
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: what over two thousand yards and over two hundred receptions

289
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: with the departures of Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis among

290
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: a couple others. So I just like everything about James

291
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: Cook this year. You know, they were run heavier under

292
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: Joe Brady as well. So even if he is not playing,

293
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: you know, like quite as many snaps as he has

294
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: in a preseason, he still can put up RB one

295
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: value just based on volume. But you always have to

296
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: kind of look out for There's always going to be

297
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: a few guys each year that kind of somewhat take

298
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: us by surprise in terms of just they're not coming

299
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: off the field. Last year it was Kiren Williams for

300
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: a good stretch and Rashad White as well, and look

301
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: where they ended up in the RB ranks. So this year,

302
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: James Cook is definitely on my radar based on the

303
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: preseason usage. And then Devin Singletary with the New York Giants.

304
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: You know, Tyrone Tracy Junior, a fifth rounder who they like, Yeah,

305
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: he's gonna be hurt to start the year. You never

306
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: like a rookie to kind of get behind the eight ball.

307
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: But Singletary another guy pretty much every snap with the

308
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: first team offense, and the first team offense played well

309
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: into the second quarter in that entire second first half.

310
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: I believe it was in the second preseason game because

311
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones was struggling, but Singletary found the end zone.

312
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: The offensive line for the Giants surprisingly looked a little

313
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: bit better. Now, who knows if that carries over into

314
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: the regular season. I still think it's kind of a

315
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: motley crew of parts, but it could be a little better.

316
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: But Devin Singletary played on twenty nine of thirty three

317
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: first team snaps. He ran a route on fifteen of

318
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: the nineteen dropbacks, he had ten of the eleven carries.

319
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: So this is a guy who I've been writing him

320
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: up as a sweeper all off season, and I was saying,

321
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: you know, he's no Saquon Barkley, but given the Giants

322
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: paid him like a give him top fifteen running back money,

323
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 1: they may very well use him like Saquon Barkley, especially

324
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: after Tracy gets hurt. I do think Eric Gray also

325
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: has looked good, So I think Gray is that is

326
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 1: the RB two over Tracy regardless. But you know, twenty

327
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: nine or thirty three snaps is nottting to sneeze at

328
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: for Devin Singletary, So that that's another one where just

329
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: like second half of the season with Houston when he

330
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: was essential in every snap player and he was very productive.

331
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 1: I think he could pick up right where he left

332
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: off there. Who running back, I'm.

333
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 2: Gonna go with Bucky Irving. You know, he's a rookie

334
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 2: I've been talking up quite a bit ever since. His

335
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 2: landing spot was excellent, I think with the Bucks, and

336
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 2: he's been playing really well so far in preseason, and

337
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 2: I think he should be able to carve out a

338
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 2: role even if you know Rashaud White is healthy this year,

339
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 2: and you know, White produced RB one numbers last year,

340
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 2: but a lot of that did have to do with

341
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 2: him staying healthy for all seventeen games. You know, he

342
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 2: didn't miss any time, but he also had very little

343
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 2: competition for touches on that depth chart. So you know,

344
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 2: the Bucks drafting Irving in the fourth round, I think

345
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 2: signals they do want somebody to push White a bit,

346
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: maybe have more of a running back by committee. So

347
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 2: Irving's a guy that I'm still, you know, high on

348
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: in like the RB fifty five range. I think he

349
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 2: does offer a path to RB three flexvy without needing injury,

350
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 2: and he could offer RB two value if White goes down,

351
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: but he also signals, you know, sort of red flag

352
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: for me. Why I'm not drafting Rashad White is heavily

353
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 2: around RB eleven is because I think he is going

354
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: to face more competition for touches, at least when it

355
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 2: comes to Bucky.

356
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, I think Bucky is absolutely going to challenge White,

357
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 1: and even down to stretch to last year, they tried

358
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: to reduce his work to get Chase Edmonds a little

359
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 1: bit more involved, and you know, White played on a

360
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: ton of passing down snaps last year, so you don't

361
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: really want him to lose those, but you also don't

362
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: want him to lose early down snaps. So because the

363
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: efficiency just may not be there for White, because if

364
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: you look at that offensive line and the tackles should

365
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 1: be all right, but you're starting a rookie at center

366
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: and the guards are are below average, so that could

367
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: be a really bad interior line once again, and that's

368
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: just not going to do any favors for White, who

369
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 1: not really a guy who was breaking many tackles or

370
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: creating much yardage beyond what was blocked. So yeah, I

371
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: like Bucky as well some other guys that are creeping

372
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: up my board based on what's been going on in

373
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: the preseason. Lake Corum. You always talk about this. When

374
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: Sean mtvay rest guys, that means they he views them

375
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: as as an important piece of the offense or the team.

376
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: And Lake Korum rested right along with Kyen Williams all

377
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:11,959
Speaker 1: preseason thus far. So that is that's notable for a rookie, right,

378
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: you know, a guy who a guy who at some

379
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: point is going to have to line up next to

380
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford in pass protect the fact that you know

381
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 1: he and but Stafford's not gonna get any snaps. So

382
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: I guess they're like, you know what through it like

383
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: you don't need to get you don't need to see Korum.

384
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 1: But I mean that's like if I would, if I'm

385
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: showing it, I just would want to see my rookies.

386
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 1: I was just like, you know, but guys, I'm like, yeah,

387
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: like I would just do it even if it was

388
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 1: against my best interest, just because I doesn't.

389
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 2: He doesn't. He loves preseason. He doesn't take it seriously.

390
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 2: He wasn't even coaching. He was up in the booth,

391
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 2: he was with you having beers in the stands there

392
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 2: like he doesn't take it seriously, but I do take

393
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 2: your point like he's treating Korum like a starter. He's

394
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 2: been talking him up, and like we've said, like he's

395
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 2: very fickle with how he handles his running backs here

396
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 2: in year out. I don't think he's as predictable those

397
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 2: people think. So I think Korum has a shot to

398
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 2: leap frog Hyron even if both are healthy.

399
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: Was here, Yeah, and no one no one really saw.

400
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: I mean you saw Kien coming like two years ago,

401
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: but no.

402
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 2: One saw that though. Yeah, it's like a like a

403
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 2: James White type of like pass catching special. It's not like,

404
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 2: you know, a top three running back exactly.

405
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: So UH never want to as you mentioned, rule out

406
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 1: uh you know, potential shake up in that back food

407
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: and that's a that's an offense that you know, good

408
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: offense all around, a lot of indoor games. Uh, so

409
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: should be a good good situation for running backs. They

410
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: had the fifth most running back carries last year, so

411
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: Krum could potentially provide standing one flex value from week one,

412
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 1: and then if if Williams gets hurt obviously, then he's

413
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: then he's really uh in the in the you know

414
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 1: Army two ar maybe even RB one discussion Ezekiel Elliott.

415
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 1: I like that Zeke was kept in bubble rap with

416
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: you know, some of the others as While Rico Dado

417
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,159
Speaker 1: did make an appearance in the preseason, he started, I

418
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: think it was the first game, only played a few snaps.

419
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: But it seems like Elliott, it seems like they're treating

420
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,199
Speaker 1: him as the RB one at least open the year,

421
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: and you know, I don't know where, like what's going

422
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: on with Cee Lamb like this, there could be touchdowns

423
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: to be had. This is the highest scoring offense in

424
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: the National Football You last year, so you know there

425
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: are some offensive line questions. Elliott is not as explosive

426
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: as he once was, but the number one. They haven't

427
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: traded for anybody yet, maybe Miles Sanders or something like that,

428
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: but then then they wouldn't be in camp for the

429
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: whole time. So I think either way, Elliott still opens

430
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: the year, is the number one running back and the

431
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: goal lineback. So at this point, you know, you could

432
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,959
Speaker 1: get him in the mid thirties with to late thirties

433
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,719
Speaker 1: at running back, there's I don't think there's much risk

434
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: there because you're looking at you know, twelve, ten to

435
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: twelve touchdown upside and potentially a player that leads his

436
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: backfield and snaps and touches. So I'm warming back up

437
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: on Elliott brayven Allen, the rookie for the Jets. I

438
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 1: thought he looked good in the preseason, and I think

439
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: he's holding off Isaiah Davis fell a rookie for that

440
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: and man of Canda for that number RB two role.

441
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 1: Ray Davis looks like the undisputed RB two in Buffalo.

442
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: So I like Cook, but I also like Davis Tank Bigsby.

443
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: He looks like the clear handcuff for ETN after last

444
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: year Deanne Johnson was mixing in a ton. I think

445
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: Bigsby has looked a lot better this preseason. Mentioned Derek

446
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: Gray already. I think he's the singletary handcuff Carson Steele

447
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: for the Chiefs. I think he's gonna make the Rosters

448
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: be a little half back fullback hybrid. And then just

449
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 1: because Derrick Henry is suited to see such a big workload,

450
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: you know, if anything, anybody is on the older side,

451
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 1: and Keaton Mitchell's hurt, so if something happens to Henry,

452
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: you know Justice Hill. I think who by the way,

453
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: he might be a sweeper in his own right because

454
00:23:58,280 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: he's going to be the number two back and they

455
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: used to him in a featured role, you know, head

456
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: scratchingly at times last year. So kind of like the

457
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 1: Chiefs with McKinnon a few years ago. So but owen

458
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: Wright is you know, playing over rookie Rashina Lee and

459
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 1: out playing him as well. So it just might be

460
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: something to monitor in case Henry goes down early in

461
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: the year. But because I don't think Mitchell is going

462
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: to be back in the first half of the year, yep.

463
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just did my running back upside ratings chart

464
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 2: and report and everything, and I think that, yeah, Tank

465
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 2: Bigsby and Brylan Allen of this group, obviously Blake krum

466
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 2: Are are the running backup running backs. I think, are

467
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 2: you know worth targeting at ADP right now.

468
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 1: Let's go to a wide receiver whose stock is rising

469
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: at that position after a couple of weeks of this

470
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: pre season.

471
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, for me, it's Khalil Shakir, you know, because I

472
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 2: had originally thought Shakira was a sneaky bet to actually

473
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 2: lead the Bills wide receivers and targets this year. Obviously

474
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 2: he's competing with Curse Samuel and rookie Keon Coleman. But

475
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 2: you know, he has the most chemistry and experience with

476
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 2: Josh Allen from their past couple of seasons together in Buffalo,

477
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 2: and he's been pretty good whenever he has seen playing time.

478
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 2: Last year, he actually led all qualified pass catchers in

479
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 2: EPA per target last year. He just has a really

480
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: good ability to get separation and also create yards after

481
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 2: the catch, which is bodes well for him to you know,

482
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 2: be productive with all these leftover targets with Diggs and

483
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 2: Gay Davis you know, out of the picture. And now

484
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 2: you know, Curtis Samuel was just diagnosed with turf toe.

485
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: He's week to week, so we're close enough to the

486
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 2: season now that certainly could and probably will impact his

487
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 2: Week one availability. So it probably gives Shaker, you know,

488
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 2: an early head start to be the top receiver again.

489
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 2: You know, he's gonna be communing with Coleman there, but

490
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 2: you know, he's a guy I've been kind of targeting

491
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 2: later and now I'm even more willing with the Samuel injury.

492
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 2: Sure enough, his ADP will probably climb a bit, but

493
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 2: I've been you know, a bit highering you know, more

494
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 2: times than not throughout this offseason, So he's a guy

495
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 2: that I'm targeting even more now.

496
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Shakir and and Keon Coleman are the

497
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: big winners here because Marcus Valdez scant Wing already looks

498
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 1: like a bust, looks like Mac Collins is going to

499
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: be the third wide receiver at least for the time being.

500
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 1: And you know, Shakir is, like you said, familiar with

501
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 1: Josh Allen. He can kind of move inside outside, so

502
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: he should be a little bit more consistent than a

503
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: guy like Coleman. But I like Coleman as well. He's

504
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 1: he's rising too, And there was a there was a

505
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 1: while where I feel like his ADP kind of got

506
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: away from me because I liked them all offseason. But

507
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 1: then next thing I know, he's being taken like the RB,

508
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: I mean the wide receiver forty five, and I'm like, okay,

509
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: let's pump the brakes a little bit. But with the

510
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: Samuel injury, with you know, MVS out kind of pretty

511
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: much taking himself out of the picture. Coleman in the

512
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 1: two preseason games played every single snap with the first team,

513
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 1: so at votes very well. He's getting targeted in the

514
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: end zone. And remember when Josh Allen is the quarterback,

515
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 1: Josh Allen is going to throw could tested tight window

516
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: throws that he probably shouldn't be throwing. So Shakir is

517
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 1: your guy that's probably gonna be more consistent on a

518
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: weekly basis. But Coleman is the upside play. Coleman, I

519
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: think is the ten touchdown upside guy. You know he

520
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: can because Josh Allen's going to force the ball to him,

521
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 1: and they're certainly getting him ready to be you know,

522
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: in every and every down player it seems like and

523
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: potentially you know, be either you know, probably not the

524
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 1: digs more of the Gave Davis. But remember Gave Davis

525
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: is always finishing as a wiree receiver, you know, in

526
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: somewhere in that wide receiver three range. So you know,

527
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: even as Coleman's ADP starts to creep up a little bit,

528
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: you can still get him as a wide receiver four,

529
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: wide receiver five. I think he has a great shot

530
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,199
Speaker 1: to finish as a wide receiver threat. Mean, Josh Allen's

531
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: just Josh Allen's not gonna throw like fifty touchdowns all year,

532
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 1: so he's gonna throw touchdowns and like Amuel is not

533
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 1: a great bet to haul in a ton of them.

534
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: Shakier a little bit better, but you know, he's not

535
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 1: not that big either, And Kincaid has hasn't been a

536
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: touchdown guy yet, So where the the touchdo has of

537
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 1: got to go to somebody. And I think Coleman's in

538
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: in really good position. And I love the fact that

539
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 1: he you know, kind of getting seat wet playing. It

540
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: wasn't didn't do it, didn't flash too much, but just

541
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: the fact that he's been on the field and he

542
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: looks it looks pretty solid, you know, on tape. So

543
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: like Coleman as well in that in that in the

544
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 1: low forties, high fifties, a wide receiver and another guy,

545
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: Josh Palmer, you know, he was the him and McConkie

546
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 1: rested the first preseason game and the second one. Palmer

547
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: played all in all the different formations where McConkie did

548
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: come out in uh when they went to one to

549
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: two person out, and Palmer was also the first wide

550
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: receiver to leave the game, but Kanki played a little deeper.

551
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: So it seems like Palmer's a clear, you know, wide

552
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: receiver that's gonna get the most snaps to start the year,

553
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 1: McConkie's going to be number two, and then you know

554
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: the battle was on behind behind those guys. So I

555
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: like I like Palmer. I like Tim Patrick as well.

556
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: I think he's the guy who kind of came out

557
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: of nowhere, but he's running with the ones for Denver,

558
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 1: so not more of a best ball flyer. But we've

559
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: seen Tim Patrick be productive when he's on the field,

560
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 1: and he could very well be the number two target

561
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: on that team after Courtland Sutton. So I think he's

562
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: really you know, starting, he's rising rapidly in my board.

563
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: Who else you're looking at at wide receiver?

564
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 2: I think another guy we're talking about is Brandon Cooks.

565
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 2: You know, he's been operating as the wide receiver one

566
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 2: during Ceedee Lambs holdout, and all reports suggests he's been

567
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 2: looking great. You know, the possibility of a bounce back season,

568
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 2: you know, age thirty one seemed lower, but just based

569
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 2: on his performance at camp, it does seem possible. So

570
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 2: I'm I'm cautiously optimistic he could return to you know,

571
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 2: wide receiver three flex option this year, especially in this offense.

572
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 2: But you know, I don't know what's up with ceedee Lamb.

573
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 2: This could be all resolved today, who knows, But if

574
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 2: this spills in the season, you know, Cooks will be

575
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 2: you know, the top receiver in this offense. So he

576
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 2: could have some really elevated early season value if Lamb

577
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 2: does hold out through the season. So he's a guy

578
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 2: that I've been eyeing, you know later on he's around

579
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 2: wide receiver fifty seven. I think right now he's worth

580
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 2: a flyer. They're just based on how well he's been

581
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 2: doing camp and the small possibility I would say that

582
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 2: Lamb's holdout actually you know, spills into the season.

583
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's definitely being slept on. Given the

584
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: potential for Lamb to miss it. Even if Lamb does it,

585
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 1: I mean you have more questions than ever at that

586
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: number three wide receiver spot. You know, you might just

587
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 1: have a tougher go out of the Cowboys win total

588
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 1: is down to nine and a half's to the over.

589
00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:00,080
Speaker 1: But remember this is a team that's one twelve what

590
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: was twelve games in each of the last three seasons,

591
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 1: so they've commonly been in positive game script, which isn't

592
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 1: always the greatest thing for wide receiver, especially when you

593
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: have a target hot like Lamb. So I know Cooks

594
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: did kind of pat his stats with that one huge

595
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: game I think it was against the Giants, but he

596
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: could be a little bit more consistent this year just

597
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: out of necessity. You know, the run game is probably

598
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: not gonna be as good either. So yeah, I think

599
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: Cooks is I mean, we've seen it. We've seen him

600
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: produce wide receiver one value. I don't think you know,

601
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: he's a little older now, but he has a track

602
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: record and he's in the right situation. You know, you

603
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: have the quarterback, you have the situation. You play a

604
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: lot of games indoors. So yeah, I think Cooks is

605
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: a great, great call. There some other deeper guys that

606
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 1: are rising on my board. Jalen Naylor for the Vikings.

607
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: It's like he's got that number three wide receiver role

608
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: sewn up and that could be relevant because the Vikers

609
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: have been extremely pass heavy under Kevin O'Connell. And that's

610
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: even without Kirk Cousins. In games that Cousins has missed,

611
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: they've still been uh, you know, well over you know,

612
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: their expected pass rate on average with guys like Jaron

613
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: Hall and Nick Mowens and who was a Joshua Dobbs

614
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: last season as well, So it also comes into focus

615
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: because not only is Narrow a pretty talented guy just

616
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 1: hasn't been able to stay healthy, but Jordan Madison's dealing

617
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 1: with an injury Tojay Hockinson's likely not going to be

618
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: back until you know sometime, he's probably gonna be missed,

619
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 1: you know, the first months of the season, if not

620
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: the first half of the season. So you you could

621
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: have that number two, you know, maybe number three roll

622
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: open on the Vikings and you mentioned, you know, Darnold

623
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: is kind of sneaky. H Jalen Nay are kind of

624
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: sneaky as well, because he's a guy that if he

625
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: if he's getting that number two three wide receiver role

626
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 1: or just getting a top three roll, I should say, uh,

627
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: there's a chance that he's out there for almost every snap.

628
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: He could be this year's with DeMarcus Robinson down like

629
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: the way Robinson was down the stretch with five top

630
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: twenty five finishes over a six week span once he

631
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: took over that number three role. Because O'Connor is a

632
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: Bay disciple, should be you know, not quite as much

633
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: one one personnel, but yeah, I think Naylor. Naylor is

634
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: a little sneaky Ray Ray mclod's probably gonna see a

635
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 1: ton of snaps because the Falcons are playing like ninety

636
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: eight percent to one to one personnel now with you know,

637
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: with the new regime there uh and Rondel Moore got hurt,

638
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: so Ray Ray mcclod has been rested with the rest

639
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 1: of the start is treated as a starter. So I

640
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: mean in the PPR League, maybe maybe he you know,

641
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: is a guy that catches, you know, four or five

642
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: balls in a few games and just kind of a

643
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 1: late round flyer. She through some bye weeks or something

644
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: like that. Cedric Wilson for the Saints, he's playing every snap.

645
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's going to change it when

646
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: Shahei comes back, but I expected it to be more

647
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 1: like an at Perry or somebody like that, like a

648
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 1: bigger guy. But you know, he at Perry looks like

649
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: he's way down the depth chart and Bob Means is

650
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: playing over him. So Wilson may you know, new new

651
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: coordinator there Kubiak taken over for Carmichael, So Wilson junior

652
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: and who knows what's going on with Shahid now because

653
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 1: I like him as a sweeper, but anytime you have

654
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: a new offense and in cars, running the new offense

655
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,320
Speaker 1: too and and you're missing time doesn't bode well. So

656
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 1: you know, Wilson keeping an eye on him. And I

657
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: think Trayland Burks is interesting just because everyone's kind of

658
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: written him off, but he does have the pedigree. I

659
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: think Tyer bo Boy just kind of washed. You know,

660
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 1: his snap rate went way down last year even with Callahan,

661
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: So especially with this Hopkins injury, I think Burks is

662
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: gonna get a chance to kind of be a starter,

663
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 1: but I think he could end up being that third

664
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: wide receiver over Boyd. And remember this Talian team is

665
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: going to look totally different, kind of like the Falcons.

666
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: They're going to be super pass heavy, probably with Callahan,

667
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 1: who is always very past heavy in in Cincinnati. Granted,

668
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 1: you know Taylor was calling the plays, but you have

669
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: you have you know Grid, we you have Hopkins, you

670
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 1: have a quarterback that you did show some things last

671
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 1: year in Levis, so you can conceive that we go

672
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 1: past past heavy. So I think Burke's is somebody that

673
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he ends up finishing as a top

674
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 1: forty wide receiver or anything, but I do think he

675
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 1: is going to be a factor for the Titans this year,

676
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 1: and because he has that draft pedigree, I'm always going

677
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on him. All right, tight end

678
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 1: who are looking at there?

679
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 2: Isaiah likely you know, he's one of, if not the

680
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 2: best backup tight end in the league in my opinion,

681
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,800
Speaker 2: and it's it's you can tell it's getting harder for

682
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 2: Baltimore to keep him off the field, and they're they're

683
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 2: probably looking to use more two tight end sets this

684
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,879
Speaker 2: year to have on the field with Mark Andrews, and well,

685
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 2: you know, it's probably unlikely he's going to offer any

686
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 2: fantasy value in traditional fantasy leagues. As long as you

687
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 2: know Andrews is healthy, he could offer some more spiked

688
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 2: weeks in best Ball even when Andrews is healthy. You know,

689
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 2: he's a solid red zone threat, so he could you know,

690
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 2: score a vulture touchdown here or there. But he's a

691
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,279
Speaker 2: rare tight end where he actually has tight end one

692
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 2: value or upside if and when Andrews were to miss time.

693
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 2: So it's a situation where his his ceiling's always going

694
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 2: to be there with you know, the potential of Andrews

695
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 2: missing time, but his floor might actually be ending up

696
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 2: in the tight end two range now as well, So

697
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 2: I think that significantly raises his draft stock in my opinion.

698
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 2: And he's a guy that I'm always kind of intrigued

699
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 2: in in bestball leagues or even like deeper season long

700
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 2: leagues because you could stash him as a potential tight

701
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 2: end one. But I'm encouraged to hear that they might

702
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 2: be using him more and two tight end sets and

703
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 2: hopefully that would raise his week before even when Andrews

704
00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 2: is healthy.

705
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean last year Beckham was playing about fifty

706
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 1: percent of snap Uh. I think Likely is just kind

707
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 1: of gonna be in that role almost not not the

708
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: same role as Becka, but similar snap rate because it

709
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 1: didn't really replace him. They still have Bateman and Aglar,

710
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think Likely is going to be like

711
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 1: kind of treated like a big slot receiver and uh,

712
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,399
Speaker 1: and they're gonna go with more two tight end sets.

713
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,359
Speaker 1: So I like Likely as well.

714
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 2: For me.

715
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill, you know, there's kind of some questions, given

716
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: Kubiak taken over, would Hill still be a big part

717
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,840
Speaker 1: of the offense. But you know, through two preseason games,

718
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: he's played about two thirds of the snaps with the

719
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: with the first team offense. He has a forty seven

720
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: percent route participation rate. He's handled about a third of

721
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,879
Speaker 1: the carries as well, So it still looks like he's

722
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: gonna be very involved in uh you know, Juwan Johnson

723
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: working his way back from an injury, mentioned Shaheed struggling

724
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: with an injury. So once again, I think Ken Dre

725
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: Miller as well. So once again I think Taysom Hill

726
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,319
Speaker 1: will serve in a variety of roles. Looks like he's

727
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 1: gonna be in the backfield even more this year, play

728
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 1: some full back. But the fact that he has that

729
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: dual threadability as a runner and you can still he's

730
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: still going to be running some routes and you can

731
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 1: always you could always throw a pass or two here there,

732
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 1: But I think that's gonna be less of a part

733
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 1: of his game this year. But I do like I

734
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 1: was encouraged by the usage for Hill with the with

735
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: the new regime. All right, Before we move on, I

736

00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: stock down guys who are falling in your rankings. First

746
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,880
Speaker 1: up quarterback who yet.

747
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 2: Well it goes without saying, but A O'Connell is plummeting

748
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 2: in my rankings because, as we saw, the Raiders preseason

749
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 2: game this Saturday, was an audition for the Week one

750
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: starting job. And I actually bet on the Cowboys in

751
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 2: game because I thought An O'Connell was done for the day.

752
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 2: He already had a drive in the third quarter. I

753
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 2: thought he had the Week one job locked up. He

754
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 2: came out for one more drive and he threw a

755
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 2: pick six, and I think that's what did it. I

756
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 2: think that really did it for him. So, you know,

757
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 2: after the game, Antonio Pierce announced that Gardner Minshew would

758
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: be the Week one starter. So I was projecting O'Connell

759
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 2: for around nine starts and minshew round eight. You know,

760
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 2: a very close battle, and it still might be. I mean,

761
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 2: this is something that's going to happen throughout the season,

762
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 2: but I flipped it now it's closer to Menshe run

763
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 2: ten to eleven starts on the season and O'Connor around

764
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 2: six to seven, so you know, he's outside of you know,

765
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 2: the top thirty for me now. And this is a

766
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 2: move that might upset DeVante Adams. I know he had

767
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 2: voiced that he prefers O'Connell, So we'll see if this,

768
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 2: you know, leads to Adams being trade. But that would

769
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 2: be a downgrade for both Raiders quarterbacks. So it was

770
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 2: just not a good weekend for Aden O'Connell. He's still

771
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 2: a guy I think has some upside. He still might

772
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 2: end up taking over this job in season from Gardner Minshew.

773
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 2: So I've pumped the brakes a bit when it comes

774
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,880
Speaker 2: to O'Connell because again, he lost the job, so I

775
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 2: moved him down quite a bit in terms of projection starts.

776
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Bee Riders actually think is not the pick

777
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 1: six because they said Minshew actually has thrown more picks

778
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: in camp than O'Connell. They're saying it's more so they

779
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,920
Speaker 1: feel like Minshew gives him more ability to just kind

780
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:55,799
Speaker 1: of move around in the pocket, do some things off

781
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: the rollout and things like that. So I guess they

782
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,359
Speaker 1: want a little bit more mobility they offer the line

783
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 1: doesn't isn't looking as great as you would expect. So yeah,

784
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: it's a food situation. But for me, Rock Purdy, and

785
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 1: that's just because there's a lot of uncertainty that we

786
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,319
Speaker 1: didn't know we were gonna still be dealing with at

787
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 1: this point. What's gonna happen with Brandon A you is?

788
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: Are they gonna trade are you for somebody that can

789
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: actually replace him? Or are they gonna have to rely

790
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: on you know, guys like Ricky Pearsall who's got gotten

791
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 1: behind the eight ball and camp and is a rookie

792
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,359
Speaker 1: guys like you know, journeyman, uh, Chris conn we might

793
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: have to play if you know, in that scenario. And

794
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: then where's Trent Williams. Trent Williams is like he is

795
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 1: a massive, massive part of this offense. And if he

796
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 1: is not in the lineup, any game that he's not

797
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,800
Speaker 1: in the lineup, I mean we saw that last year, Purty,

798
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 1: anytime he was missing, you know, his key guys Williams debo,

799
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:57,279
Speaker 1: like the numbers weren't as good and and and there

800
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,720
Speaker 1: were some struggles, so uh, Purty is he was always

801
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 1: kind of going to be more of a floor quarterback. Uh,

802
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: but now with this uncertainty, I would rather just take

803
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 1: a fire on a guy like Caleb Williams, on a

804
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 1: guy like Jay Jaydon Daniels because uh, you know, pery,

805
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 1: he'll he'll have streaming value and maybe he ends up

806
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: being a you know, a top top ten quarterback startable again.

807
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,799
Speaker 1: But right now with with with Williams and Auk, those

808
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 1: are those are massive pieces to that offense. Uh, that

809
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: are kind of in limbo. So don't love uh Rock

810
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: purty stock right now. Herbert as well, You know, I

811
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: just don't don't like when when a guys dealing with

812
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: an injury heading into the year. We saw Burrow really

813
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: struggle for the first month last year, never kind of

814
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: got it together too much. So uh, he's especially with

815
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: this new offense run heavy. Uh Burrow excuse me, Herbert

816
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,760
Speaker 1: not not feeling great about him, already mentioned Russell Wilson

817
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 1: did not look good. Uh running back? Who is falling

818
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: down your board there?

819
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I have a couple of backup rookie running

820
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 2: backs are falling down my board right now. And the

821
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 2: versus Marshaun Lloyd of the Packers. You know, Lloyd's in

822
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 2: a battle right now with AJ Dillon for the backup role,

823
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 2: but he's been missing time with this hamscree injury, you know,

824
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 2: preventing him from cementing his case to be the backup.

825
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 2: And even when he was healthy, the Packers were still

826
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 2: treating him like the number three. This is you know,

827
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 2: like every running back situation that's fluid. So I think

828
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,959
Speaker 2: eventually he probably would leap frog Dylan, but he can't

829
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 2: right now because he's hurt. So there's a real shot

830
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 2: that he opens the season as a number three back.

831
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 2: So you know, his his ADP is probably too high

832
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 2: for me right now. And you know, maybe the Packers

833
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,319
Speaker 2: do something crazy like move on from AJ Dillen before

834
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 2: this season that would, you know, change my outlook with Lloyd.

835
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 2: But either way, just not a great start for Lloyd,

836
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,839
Speaker 2: who I thought was a sneaky pick by the Packers there,

837
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 2: but you know, I'm moving him down the ranks as

838
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 2: we speak. And Tyrone tracy Is of the Giants is

839
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 2: another one I've been slightly moving down because you know,

840
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 2: he was looking like it's a clear favorite to open

841
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 2: the season of the Giant's number two back, but he's

842
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 2: been missing time with an ankle injury. I think he

843
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 2: just returned to practice today. But Eric Gray has been

844
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 2: excellent in preseason and he was a rookie last season.

845
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 2: Both backs were drafted in the fifth round. I think, so,

846
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 2: you know, it might be more of a fifty to

847
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 2: fifty split right now. Just we'll have see how this

848
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 2: next week or two go. But Tracy's stock specifically has

849
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:26,799
Speaker 2: been going down a bit for me. But that's kind

850
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 2: of how all these backups, you know, situations are. For me,

851
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 2: it's a fluid situation. Anything can change. But as of now,

852
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 2: Tracy has been moving down my board.

853
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I always feel like we're just yelling into the

854
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 1: void because it's like, I don't think any I think

855
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: it's because we play so much best ball, we start

856
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 1: drafted so early that there's this anchoring bias where we

857
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 1: were excited about Marshall Lloyd, we're excited about Tracy and

858
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,800
Speaker 1: they're they're eighty p's are like, especially Voyd, it's just ridiculous.

859
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 1: I mean, you talked about like he may start the

860
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 1: year as the third run. He's absolutely starting the year

861
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 1: as the third He's he'll be lucky if if he

862
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 1: plays over Emmanuel Wilson to start the year. Who's there

863
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: last year, you know what I mean? And we've seen

864
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 1: this before with Lafleur, where you know they essentially red

865
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: shirted Dylan's first year. So and you got Josh Jacobs.

866
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:20,439
Speaker 1: You don't need like like as good as what Lloyd

867
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 1: has talented, but you got you have Jayden Reed, you

868
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 1: have so many weapons. You have two tight ends that

869
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 1: you want to get the ball to. So there's just

870
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,879
Speaker 1: no incentive to really rush him or kind of work

871
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 1: him in any more than than than they then they

872
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 1: need to and they can so as a top fifty back,

873
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,719
Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many other guys or even you know,

874
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,840
Speaker 1: even outside the top fifty, so many other guys and

875
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've gone over in your running back upside

876
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:48,319
Speaker 1: rankings who are just their clear number two running back

877
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: on their team. Like, we don't know what's going on

878
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 1: with Lloyd. He may be the number three all year.

879
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 1: He may you know, he may start the year as

880
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: like a healthy scratch if he because if you don't

881
00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 1: like the thing about Dylan is he's big, and so

882
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: he could pass protect if you don't trust Lloyd and

883
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,839
Speaker 1: pass protection. And he's missed so much camp and he's

884
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 1: not gonna have a game day role. I mean, what

885
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 1: are you what are you really doing with him? So yeah,

886
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: I think he's he's way way, way way overdrafted. There's

887
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:13,879
Speaker 1: a lot better ways for you for you to use

888
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,880
Speaker 1: that pick. But I think that's this is more of

889
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 1: like a best bawl expert kind of thing than like,

890
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone who's just kind of tuning back

891
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 1: in now is like, oh yeah, I was just rearing

892
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: to spend my hard forty nine pick on right in

893
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: Marshall Lloyd.

894
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 2: You know, so right, just yeah, these backups are on

895
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:32,800
Speaker 2: my mind from doing my chart. And I think he

896
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 2: made a great point of just people not really adjusting

897
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 2: based on the news that's happening. Like we spent all

898
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 2: off season, you know, the summer coming out of their rankings, projections,

899
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 2: and then we have a ton of new information now

900
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,279
Speaker 2: we need to be using that. You know. It goes

901
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 2: with like Kimani of ideal of the Chargers, like everybody

902
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:54,239
Speaker 2: was high on him but so far, Yeah, like you know,

903
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 2: he hasn't been treated like the number three back, and

904
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 2: you know, Dobbins is looking healthier than we anticipated. We

905
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 2: just have to be making these adjustments now that we're

906
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 2: getting you know, actual data and in photogoph of.

907
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, Videll is a guy that's falling

908
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 1: down my board. I mean I watched him. Him, Jared Patterson,

909
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,800
Speaker 1: Isaiah Spiller, and Elijah Dutson all just rotated in and

910
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:17,799
Speaker 1: out all games. So I think Vitell ultimately gets that role.

911
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 1: But you know, he he's had, he's had to earn it,

912
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,840
Speaker 1: and he's clearly behind the top two. So you're essentially

913
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 1: banking on you know, two injuries, which not not great.

914
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: Jonathan Brooks another guy who just you know, kind of

915
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 1: our fears confirmed. He's probably going to start the year,

916
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 1: you know, on one of the injury lists, and and

917
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 1: and the Pantss have no incentive to bring him along

918
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 1: fast either. I mean they're not where they they're not

919
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 1: competing for anything. You know, they they have they have

920
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,920
Speaker 1: right now, they have like they have three two well,

921
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,880
Speaker 1: they have two backs on the roster. One of them

922
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 1: is Hubbard, who played really well. The second is Sanders

923
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 1: who they're paying a lot of money, so if they

924
00:47:56,760 --> 00:48:00,400
Speaker 1: don't trade him, Uh, there there's really no incentive to

925
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 1: rush Brooks back in what's probably going to be kind

926
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 1: of a you know, feeling out to you know, get

927
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 1: your feet wet, get get get young, some confidence. Like

928
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,799
Speaker 1: there's there's no rush with Jonathan Brooks. So you can't

929
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 1: you can't necessarily just okay, let's say he comes back

930
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,359
Speaker 1: in week five even, but you can't just pencil him

931
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 1: in for like fourteen carries a game, start a role,

932
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 1: you know, just because he's you know, just when he

933
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,880
Speaker 1: comes back. He might not achieve that role all season because,

934
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: like you said, Hubbard, Hubbard has been playing pretty well

935
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 1: and we don't know what's gonna happen with Sanders. So yeah,

936
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 1: he's been falling and then Jamn Lauren, you know, starting

937
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 1: not to feel is great about him. Number One, we

938
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,360
Speaker 1: saw we Sawnagie Harris kind of outplay him down the

939
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 1: stretch last year and take some of that role back

940
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 1: that that he gave up giving up to Warren. But uh,

941
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 1: now you're also dealing with an injury for Warren, and

942
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 1: we saw that Cordell Patterson still exists, and this is

943
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 1: Arthur Smith. So Arthur Smith never really makes sense and

944
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaker 1: you never know what he's gonna do. But like, I'd

945
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 1: rather take the guy in Najie Harris, who like he's

946
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 1: gonna get his his snaps and his touches.

947
00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 2: You know.

948
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,320
Speaker 1: Warren's the guy that we're kind of betting on talent

949
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,880
Speaker 1: and okay, he can kind of you know, we were

950
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,360
Speaker 1: drafting him as a top thirty guy because he was

951
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 1: kind of eating into Harris's role and you keep playing

952
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,520
Speaker 1: pass downs. But this new offense, Smith is always kind

953
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,279
Speaker 1: of favored. I feel like the these bigger backs, like

954
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:27,200
Speaker 1: he gave a lot of work to Tyler Algier more

955
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:31,320
Speaker 1: than expected Derrick Henry that one year when Dion Lewis

956
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:32,800
Speaker 1: and Henry were expected to have like a fifty to

957
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,799
Speaker 1: fifty switt and Henry ends up getting all, like all

958
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 1: the carries. I think that could happen with the Nase

959
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: because you always say, na, She's the closest thing we

960
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,759
Speaker 1: have to Derrick Henry. So I think I think this

961
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,839
Speaker 1: is like, uh, you know, Warren is a late round

962
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 1: pick too, so new new regime, the red flags are

963
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 1: out for me with Warren as well.

964
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:57,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was at the end of the season, I

965
00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 2: was saying, nause he's like literally morphing into Derrick Henry. Uh,

966
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 2: because he had that three game stretch where he didn't

967
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 2: catch a single pass too.

968
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:09,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean the Stairs might

969
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:13,279
Speaker 1: not throw. They don't require given how Wilson looked Van

970
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 1: Jefferson there, like they're they're number two receivers, right.

971
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 2: Uh.

972
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:21,479
Speaker 1: Speaking of wide receiver, who is falling down your draft

973
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,560
Speaker 1: board after two weeks of the preseason at that position?

974
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate to say it, but it's Jordan Addison

975
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 2: for me, and he's the guy. I love him as

976
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:30,400
Speaker 2: a talent, He's still a guy. You know, I'd be

977
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 2: willing to bet on talent. But he suffered that ankle injury. Luckily,

978
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 2: it's not expected to really prevent him from suiting up

979
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 2: week one, but something we need to monitor. But I

980
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,320
Speaker 2: guess there's still a chance he does end up facing

981
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:47,800
Speaker 2: some sort of suspension later in the season based on

982
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:51,120
Speaker 2: you know, some of his off season issues, so that

983
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,240
Speaker 2: needs to be considered. Plus, you know, I think losing

984
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:57,920
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy for the season doesn't really impact my projections

985
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 2: for him per se, But you know, the chances of

986
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,960
Speaker 2: McCarthy breaking out his rookie and really elevating the offense.

987
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 2: Was there to a certain extent. So now that the

988
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 2: ceiling is Sam Darnold, it kind of just caps that

989
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 2: sort of upside.

990
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 1: Again about Yeah, that's true, but Nick Nolan's is the ceilings.

991
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 2: It's just another another quarterback in the mix that could

992
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,760
Speaker 2: have been one to elevate the offense. So just Jajon

993
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,960
Speaker 2: McCarthy getting ruled out for the season doesn't help us

994
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:29,439
Speaker 2: in But he just has all these underlying issues where

995
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,800
Speaker 2: it's just tough to draft him in that range. And

996
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 2: I feel like we've been talking about a lot of

997
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 2: receivers that go shortly after him too, like you know,

998
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:45,360
Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy, Brian Thomas, Romeo, Dobbs, ke Coleman, and Phil Secure,

999
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,799
Speaker 2: Josh Palmer, those guys like he. When Addison's going off

1000
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 2: the board, I'm more than willing to wait for some

1001
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 2: of these, uh, you know, guys around wide receiver fifty.

1002
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,919
Speaker 2: So there's enough red flags for me now to pump

1003
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,840
Speaker 2: the brakes on him once once you see like the

1004
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 2: top forty if he's saw on the board. So he's

1005
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,080
Speaker 2: a guy that's been moving down my draft board the

1006
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:07,879
Speaker 2: past couple weeks.

1007
00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, and the actling, I mean, the Acto

1008
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,720
Speaker 1: injury is maybe it's not going to destroy a season,

1009
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:15,399
Speaker 1: but it's still not ideal. You know how I feel

1010
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,799
Speaker 1: about these injured guys heading into week one. I think

1011
00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:22,960
Speaker 1: people kind of overlook, uh the potential impact. So I'm yeah,

1012
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 1: I'm Addison's been falling, Marquis Brown has been falling. Joshua

1013
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 1: Downs has been falling, just because not only is he

1014
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: going to start the year hurt, but he struggled. He

1015
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,200
Speaker 1: kind of played through an injury last year, so now

1016
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: you're just kind of worried about you know, is always

1017
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,759
Speaker 1: gonna have nagging injuries. Number two, he's probably not gonna

1018
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 1: play too much in you know one uh one two personnel,

1019
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 1: and the Coats have like eighteen tight ends, so they're

1020
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:51,880
Speaker 1: going to play some a lot of one two personnel.

1021
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:53,480
Speaker 1: And now you add a rookie and eighty Mitchell to

1022
00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: the mix, who is playing in the slot, which is

1023
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:58,360
Speaker 1: Down's role. So uh, there's just a lot of like

1024
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,800
Speaker 1: if Mitchell breaks out, you know that that really limits

1025
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:06,720
Speaker 1: the lowers the floor and cats the ceiling of Downs.

1026
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:08,719
Speaker 1: And I don't like the fact that he's kind of

1027
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 1: behind the eight ball here, So you know, talented guy

1028
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,319
Speaker 1: usually liked to bet on one guy. You know, uh

1029
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 1: second year breakouts, but Down's kind of broke out already

1030
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 1: and he's probably due for regression if anything. Quentin Johnson Johnston,

1031
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:26,120
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, sure he got drafted with what is

1032
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:27,840
Speaker 1: the top twenty pick or whatever.

1033
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 2: This dude is terrible.

1034
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:33,680
Speaker 1: I watched him up close in personal, just like just

1035
00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,120
Speaker 1: battle fifth string corners, and I mean he made like

1036
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,840
Speaker 1: one good catch on the sideline, but the fact that

1037
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 1: he was out there like deeper into the game than

1038
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:46,879
Speaker 1: guys TJ. Chark and and who is Cornelius Johnson Brendan Rice,

1039
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 1: Like it's it. This is a new regime and they

1040
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 1: clearly have no respect for Quenton Johnson's draft credigree and

1041
00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:55,920
Speaker 1: there's no reason to. He's given them no reason to.

1042
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 1: The Broncos already talked about them. But you know, Marvin

1043
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 1: seems more like like he only played it like one

1044
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 1: snap with the first team again for the second straight

1045
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 1: preseason week. So it looks like he's gonna be more

1046
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,759
Speaker 1: of a return specialist and mix it here and there

1047
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: on offense, but not not a top three receiver, as

1048
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 1: I think you know we had probably envisioned at one

1049
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 1: point in the offseason. And then Troy Franklin, the rookie,

1050
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:22,280
Speaker 1: I don't know where he is either, because Tim Patrick's

1051
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:25,200
Speaker 1: you know, balling out. Sutton's obviously the number one, and

1052
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 1: Josh Reynolds was the most highly used number three guy,

1053
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,120
Speaker 1: and Franklin just seems way down the depth chart, kind

1054
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:35,840
Speaker 1: of battling guys like Will Jordan Humphrey and and the

1055
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: other rookie, Veley, who's I think out played him. So Franklin,

1056
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna cut bait or anything, but

1057
00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:45,080
Speaker 1: he's like a healthy scratch candidate because they're gonna have

1058
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 1: to stash him on the roster because they can't put

1059
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 1: him the waivers. So yeah, that's disappointing because he had

1060
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:54,080
Speaker 1: that that you know, that experience with with Nicks and

1061
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: in school. Roman Wilson, another guy that I think started

1062
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,319
Speaker 1: the year preseason a lot higher on, just hasn't been

1063
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:01,839
Speaker 1: able to get on the yield. Uh So it's gonna

1064
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:04,799
Speaker 1: be Pickings, it's gonna be Jefferson, it's gonna and Calvin.

1065
00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:07,279
Speaker 1: It's gonna be Calvin Austin. And then you're also looking

1066
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,640
Speaker 1: at a potential at you trade. So I don't really

1067
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 1: see a path anymore, especially with this crappy quarterback situation

1068
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 1: for Wilson and then uh even Pearsall. I think Pearsall

1069
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 1: is still a guy who I'm a little worried about

1070
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:22,759
Speaker 1: even if they trade at you. I just they're talking

1071
00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: about Conley and Jennings and like, like, I just don't

1072
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:28,440
Speaker 1: know if Pearsall hits the ground running. He did miss

1073
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 1: some time in camp and just really it's been quiet.

1074
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 1: Uh So again, a lot of these guys who probably

1075
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,279
Speaker 1: you're if you're just kind of tuning back in for

1076
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 1: for redraft strategy, I apologize, but these are some guys

1077
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:43,879
Speaker 1: that would be pretty highly drafted in Best Ball. Yeah,

1078
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:47,399
Speaker 1: and so I just thought i'd kind of lay out

1079
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,920
Speaker 1: that they should not be drafted that high.

1080
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, Pearsall has been a guy moving down my rankings

1081
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,759
Speaker 2: because it seems more likely than not that's gonna stay

1082
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 2: in San Francisco. Plus their their fourth round.

1083
00:55:59,480 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 1: Uh.

1084
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,720
Speaker 2: Other rookie receiver Jacob Cowing has been looking pretty solid

1085
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,959
Speaker 2: in preseason. I always loved him at Arizona, and again

1086
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 2: they took him in the fourth round, so he he

1087
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 2: has been playing well he's been out there playing and

1088
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:14,080
Speaker 2: Piersall has not, so that's you know, he's been moving

1089
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 2: up at least, you know, on my projections. But still,

1090
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:21,080
Speaker 2: you know, Piersall is still a highly covetive draft pick.

1091
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,800
Speaker 2: But again, like it might not matter because if he stays,

1092
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:25,360
Speaker 2: it's going to be hard for them to see the

1093
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:25,960
Speaker 2: field anyway.

1094
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 1: Uh, tight end who we down?

1095
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 2: Cole Comet's dropping a bit in my rankings, and you know,

1096
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:35,560
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams trending up. It's very much a situation where

1097
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:37,799
Speaker 2: you know, rising tide lifts all boats. So I've been

1098
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 2: raising a lot of Bears pass catcher projections in my model,

1099
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 2: and well, Comet will be the clear starting tight end

1100
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,239
Speaker 2: in this offense. It's becoming clear that Gerald Everett is

1101
00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:52,879
Speaker 2: going to have a role in this offense as well. Yeah,

1102
00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,880
Speaker 2: he's reuniting with Shane Waldron from their Seahawks days, So

1103
00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,800
Speaker 2: that's going to be annoying if you know, he sees

1104
00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,280
Speaker 2: any dip in playing time that that's going to impact

1105
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:03,800
Speaker 2: him because he was, you know, consider on that fringe

1106
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 2: of you know, like a high end tight end two,

1107
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,239
Speaker 2: maybe a tight end one. But he's a little bit

1108
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 2: further down in more the mid range tight end two

1109
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:13,800
Speaker 2: range for me, which is if you're in traditional season

1110
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 2: one had hell leagues, you know he's gonna be on

1111
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:17,640
Speaker 2: the waiver wire. So he's he's a guy that's been

1112
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 2: moving down because I think we do have to take

1113
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 2: this seriously with Jerill Effett potentially eating into his staff rate.

1114
00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just want to have like blank cells in

1115
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 1: my spreadsheet after Galton Schultz at tight end?

1116
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 2: Can I just.

1117
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:34,640
Speaker 1: Like that guy I want to draft? Yeah, thirteen because

1118
00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:37,120
Speaker 1: I was supposed to be the tight end fourteen right,

1119
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 1: And it's like I don't want him, but I like

1120
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 1: Friar moot Is also I don't know what's going on

1121
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 1: with him.

1122
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,040
Speaker 2: There for me too, and he's missing half the season.

1123
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and he's probably yeah, he's probably not going

1124
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,919
Speaker 1: to hit that value. And it's and then like musk

1125
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 1: Grave is in the committee, so it's like, are we

1126
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:54,919
Speaker 1: gonna have to do Taysom Hill thing again?

1127
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 2: Yep?

1128
00:57:55,960 --> 00:58:00,120
Speaker 1: Like hen Henry's banged up? Uh, Like is this is

1129
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:00,760
Speaker 1: getting out of.

1130
00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:06,480
Speaker 2: He's for me the Robert I'm gonna get the wrong guy.

1131
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:10,360
Speaker 1: It'll be month month month is gonna be t J.

1132
00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:14,480
Speaker 1: Hockinson forget forget nailor forget Addison, it's gonna be It's

1133
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,920
Speaker 1: gonna be Johnny money month maybe look out for him,

1134
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:20,200
Speaker 1: but uh yeah, seriously, tight end is tough, so uh

1135
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: spend spend a previous pick on one, because yes, it

1136
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,440
Speaker 1: gets really tough. Uh, guys falling down my board at

1137
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 1: tight end. John new Smith looks like he's gonna be

1138
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 1: in more of a committee with uh Durham Smice and

1139
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 1: with even maybe Julian Hill. Ben Soono, a guy who

1140
00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 1: I've another guy who everyone was excited about. Rookie had

1141
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 1: that nice catch and rumbled in week week one, but

1142
00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 1: uh yeah he played, but he played behind John Bates

1143
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:49,640
Speaker 1: and you know, and and Jack Writs has been kept

1144
00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 1: in bubble wrap, and uh from everything I hear on

1145
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:56,160
Speaker 1: the beat, h Ertz has been one of Daniel's favorite

1146
00:58:56,160 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 1: targets in camp. And remember Ertz Cliff Kingsbury two. McBride

1147
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 1: is a rookie, Urts is old. Ertz plays eighty five

1148
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:09,840
Speaker 1: percent snap. McBride is the afterthought, playing fifteen percent of snaps.

1149
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,320
Speaker 1: Uh for the whole entire first half of the year.

1150
00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 1: It would have been the whole year probably, but then

1151
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 1: Art's got hurt. So that that could happen again. But

1152
00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:20,080
Speaker 1: Baits is the top blocking tight end, and so it

1153
00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:22,520
Speaker 1: looks like Snow's third on the depth chart, and yet

1154
00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:25,600
Speaker 1: he's being drafted as like a boarder line low end

1155
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 1: tight end.

1156
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 2: Two. No, don't, I warned everybody. Ertz is the tight

1157
00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,000
Speaker 2: end blocker. He did it to like you said, Trey

1158
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:37,360
Speaker 2: McBride and Dallas Godder. So that's just his role. Vin

1159
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:39,400
Speaker 2: Sennett will probably break out in year two or three.

1160
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, And Johanni Woods he's just when he's fighting for

1161
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:45,800
Speaker 1: a roster spot. So like you know, there's a time

1162
00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:47,480
Speaker 1: when I had him as the number one tight end

1163
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:49,920
Speaker 1: for the Coast that he's the tight end five for

1164
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 1: the Coast because like, yet you drafted Will Mallory last year,

1165
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 1: so you're not gonna not gonna move on from him.

1166
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:58,160
Speaker 1: Olga Tree has been has been solid, you know, it

1167
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:00,000
Speaker 1: doesn't It looks less and less likely they're gonna move

1168
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:02,760
Speaker 1: from Cox because he's the top blocker and Grantson is

1169
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:06,720
Speaker 1: still running with the ones. So Woods has been the

1170
01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:09,280
Speaker 1: fifth tight end in the rotation and you know, the

1171
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:12,840
Speaker 1: injuries probably just sapped him. And this isn't this is

1172
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:15,560
Speaker 1: like you know, Bauer did draft him, but psych I

1173
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 1: don't think was there when that happened. So just yeah,

1174
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 1: he's kind of falling out of favor. Maybe he gets

1175
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,280
Speaker 1: maybe he gets a new landa spot and and he

1176
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 1: can help us somewhere else at tight end because it's

1177
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 1: Barren the s talent. But the fact that he's he's

1178
01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:30,480
Speaker 1: the tight end five on anyone's death chart not a

1179
01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:33,360
Speaker 1: good look. So yeah, don't don't not not the flyer
