The focus of the rest of this show, 86 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: Scott is the NFC West. Yes, we've been breaking down 87 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: all of the teams forward looking not We're not repeating 88 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: what you already know what happened last year. What do 89 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,119 Speaker 1: you think is going to happen for the four teams 90 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: in the NFC West this season? And at the end 91 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 1: of each team will identify the riskiest player at current 92 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: ADP and the play with the most upside based on 93 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: current a DP. Yep, it's exciting. I'm gonna let you 94 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: go first a team. I'm very excited about a team 95 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: that I think will challenge the Bucks to be the 96 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl for the NFC one of the 97 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: two favorites that is the Los Angeles Rams. I think 98 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: Vegas agrees with you on that one. It's they're right 99 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: up there at top five betting they should be the Rams. Okay, 100 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: So we'll start with the passing game. Matthew Stafford currently 101 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: going off the board is QB twelve, eighth or ninth round, 102 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: usually around the eighth round. Usually for me, quarterbacks going 103 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: in the single digits is a little too high for me. 104 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: But I love everything about Stafford this year. In fact, 105 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: I think that QB twelve is his floor. Yeah, it 106 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: feels that way, doesn't it, given the talent surrounding again, yeah, 107 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: consistently with the Lions, he's had four thousand plus yard years, 108 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: thirty touchdown years, and now he goes to an offense 109 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: where Sean they made Jared Goff a forty hundred yard 110 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: and thirty two touchdown quarterback, and you could argue the 111 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: weapons now are might even be a little bit better 112 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: than they were because maybe the same similar But they 113 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: have a great defense. They had a great defense during 114 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: that great golf year, so I'm not concerned about that 115 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: being slowing down. McVeigh. McVeigh has been proven to let 116 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: his offense, you know, go, even with the defense being good, 117 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: they don't slow down the game. I think though, that 118 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 1: forty shred yards touchdowns is pretty much a floor for 119 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: Stafford this year. It is, doesn't it feel? It feels 120 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: like he was a he was a top twelve quarterback 121 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: with the Lions and all the things that were wrong there, 122 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: And now Stafford gets by far the best coaching he's 123 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: ever had, and the best every best running game he's 124 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: ever had, uh and the best wide receivers receiving options 125 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: he's ever had. And we'll go there with Cooper Cup 126 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: and Robert Woods, and I'm gonna lump them together a 127 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: little bit here because they're both going in the fifth round. 128 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: You're probably not gonna get both on your team when 129 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: you're drafting. That's maybe a corner maybe if you reach 130 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: to a reach around on one of them. Maybe. But 131 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: one thing I found very interesting with Cooper Cup when 132 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: I was doing the research is that he's had ninety 133 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: catches in back to back years, even through injuries. And 134 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: that's not targets, that's catches. That's a lot of catches 135 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: that is, and that's you know, that's where those of 136 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: us that are drafting for safety, I like Cooper Cup 137 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: more than Woods. If you're drafting for upside, then I 138 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: think I like Woods more than Cup. Yeah, and I 139 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: think that's fair and early reports from the OTAs and whatnot, 140 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: and there's a strong connection with Stafford. Uh. Woods is 141 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: the guy who was super consistent, like just sixty seventy 142 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: yards every game for a couple of years in a row. 143 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: Last year when the offense came down, he was he 144 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: was He was no longer that consistent guy. But I 145 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: think it comes back with with Stafford and he becomes 146 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: a consistent option again. He's he's got great deep ball potential, 147 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: which is something that's been Stafford's strong suit for a 148 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: long time and something they never had with golf. Yeah, 149 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: so that field's gonna get stretched before it's It's interesting 150 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: golf golf did have a lot of twenty plus yard 151 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: passes UM, but he won't have the completion rate or 152 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: or the style of offense that the Stafford's gonna happen 153 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: with that UM. The other two receivers wide receivers at 154 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: least Jefferson and Van Jefferson into Shan Jackson. Van Jefferson 155 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: obviously a rookie last year, got in a very very 156 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: tiny amount. But if they've hyped him up a lot, 157 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: if they loves him, but they did bring into Sean Jackson, 158 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: I feel like as long as Deshan Jackson stays healthy, 159 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna hurt each other. For fantasy, they're just gonna 160 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: they may have three wide receivers sets a lot, but 161 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: they might cancelate each other out just enough to not 162 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: be relevant for us from a fantasy standpoint. We need 163 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: Van Jefferson or de Sean Jackson to get hurt, and 164 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: it'll probably be de Sean Jackson. Yeah, yeah, if history 165 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: tells the same thing exactly. Yeah, that is the concern 166 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: with Jackson's that deep threat that when they had Cooks 167 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: is the third receiver they loved having that deep threat. 168 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm staying away from both of them. What 169 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: do you think about drafting Jackson got the last pick 170 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: of your draft, and you could just we don't drop 171 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: him if he doesn't, drop him if it doesn't work out, 172 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: or just start him in the first like three games 173 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: when you know that he's healthy and you could start 174 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: him there maybe, But I don't know. I think wait 175 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: and see you and I are far more excited, yes, 176 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: by the tight end position are for Los Angeles. Yeah, 177 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: And it's it's really a lot about value. It's it's 178 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: Tyler Higbie. Gerald Everett is out of the out of 179 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: town now. Um, we have like pretty much a five 180 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: game sample size of Higbie with Everett, you know, mostly 181 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: out of the games and them running one tight end sets, 182 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: which is what we expect them to do this year. 183 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: And in that five game set at the end of 184 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen season, Higbee average nine catches for a hundred 185 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: and five yards on eleven targets. That's not it's per 186 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: game numbers. That's really a hundred Even if you have that, 187 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: it's it's like a four or five for fifty five 188 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,719 Speaker 1: tight end. That's the top twelve tight end nowadays. And 189 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: if you if you took last year's numbers, where both 190 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 1: Gerald Everett and Tyler Higbee were neither were very startable, reliable, 191 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: But if you put their numbers together last year, you 192 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 1: had tight end five. Yeah. So if you think that Everett, 193 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: if you think Higby is gonna get most of Everett's work, 194 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: you've got tight end five and Higbee and he's going 195 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: off the boards. Tight end what's seventeen sev He's so 196 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: misdrafted right now. A lot analysts have him in their 197 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: top ten in rankings. It's it's just it's just a 198 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: it's a discrepancy, is what it is. It's it's just 199 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: too far off. You watch just changes between now and 200 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: week one. Yeah, you Higby is gonna start incrementally going 201 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: up draft forwards and once again, once again we think 202 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: this offense is going to be much better than that. 203 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: You mentioned Higgby plus Everett last year. Now, imagine with 204 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: a much better offense, better quarterback, right Yeah, yeah, so 205 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: so way undervalued right now. For for Higbie, it's yeah, 206 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: onto the running game. Acres is currently going RB ten. 207 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: I I've mentioned I feel this is this is pretty fair. 208 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: I feel like he ended this season with that twenty 209 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: two twenty six touches per game, and people are hoping 210 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: for that again. I think it's gonna be a little 211 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: below that, but I still think he's going to be 212 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,599 Speaker 1: a bell cow anytime you get a running back with 213 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 1: that much that many touches um going on. I do 214 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: think this is a year with seventeen games and reliance 215 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: on second running backs all over the NFL that Henderson 216 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: as RB fifty four round, I expect four touches for 217 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,599 Speaker 1: running backs in this offense. I expect Henderson to be 218 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: on the field twenty five percent at the time. Percent 219 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: of time. I think he's going to be a back 220 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: that will see nearing ten touches a game. And if 221 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: Acres for some reason goes down he went down last year, 222 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: he could be huge. I'm trying to steal him in 223 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: those middle double digit rounds, but I feel like Acres 224 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: as a first round pick makes sense. Yeah, late first round, 225 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,599 Speaker 1: early second right. I love Acres. He's in my I 226 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: think he's my running back five right now. And um, 227 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,599 Speaker 1: the reason I love him is the usage. At the 228 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,599 Speaker 1: end of the year, he was, as you mentioned, he 229 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: was getting whatever twenty I think it was twenty five 230 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: total touches per game because his targets could come up. Honestly, 231 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: they could, they really need to. Going into the playoffs, 232 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 1: it was I think twenty five per game over the 233 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: last like four or five games of the year. And 234 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: then I go back to I know Sean McVeigh has 235 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: run a committee the last couple of years. Before that, 236 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: Todd Gurley was a freaking beast who he ran into 237 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: the ground and want to be part of that. An 238 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: absolute workhorse. So Todd mcveigh's got him, got it in 239 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: him to have a workhorse back. I just think he 240 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: hasn't had a good enough back. You know, Malcolm Brown 241 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 1: was never good enough to be a work horse back. 242 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe he's gonna maybe he saw that 243 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: he ran Gurley down and he's gonna be like all 244 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: running Gurley down was get me to a super Bowl? 245 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: Want why? Right? So? I think, um, I think Acres 246 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: has got eighteen to twenty two is touches a game 247 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: built into him and that that is going to be 248 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: enough to make him a rock solid RB one And 249 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: I like Acres. Yes, all right, have we missed anybody? 250 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: I think we've covered No, We've covered all the key 251 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: points here. We've covered him. Uh. You mentioned at the 252 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: top that you wanted me to give one who's super undervalued, 253 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: give me the riskiest player at ADP and the play 254 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: with the most upside based on ADP. Alright, So I 255 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: think the player with the most upside based on ADP 256 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: is pretty clearly Higbie correct. I think at tight end seventeen, like, 257 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: I think it's this well, I said Stafford being drafted 258 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: at his floor. I think Higby's being drafted well belowest 259 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: floor for some for some reason. Uh so Higby's the 260 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: that one. All right? How about the risk is riskies? 261 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: This is really tough. I don't think any of them 262 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: are that risky where they're going. I actually like the 263 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: value on all of these players. But if I had 264 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: to pick one, it's just got to be Acres because 265 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: he's a first rounder. But yeah, where's he going? Where 266 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: he's going? Yeah, and you know running backs, we saw 267 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: McCaffrey and Barkley last year, like and Acres got hurt 268 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: last year. That's where where Acres. Where Acres is going from, 269 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: I'm putting out might do the opposite hat right now. 270 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: Where he is going is where all so many of 271 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: the running back failures come is the end of the 272 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: first round beginning in the second round, when you're paying 273 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: this heavy price on a guy who isn't Derrick Henry 274 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. Right. You know, these these proven workhorse backs, 275 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: These are guys you're projecting to be great, but a 276 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: lot of the time it doesn't work out. Yeah, that 277 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: it's it's it's the range where they've shown the potential 278 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: and they've done it in Spans, but you don't know 279 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: that they can do it for a full season. Correct. Uh, 280 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: let's move well, actually, let's do this. Let's take a 281 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: quick break, come back. I want to talk about the 282 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine, another team that could be a 283 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: fringe super Bowl team if things break the right way 284 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: in an offense that's gonna get a lot better. Let's 285 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: talk nine ers when we come back in just a moment. 286 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul charch 287 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: In and Scott Fish with you. We already broke down 288 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: the Rams. Let's pivot from one brilliant offensive mind, Sean 289 00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: McVeigh to the best offensive end of the game, and 290 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: that is Kyle Shanahan. For some reason, the way you 291 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: said that like brilliant, like brilliant offensive mind, like I 292 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: was thinking, like George Carlin. Yes, I don't know. Uh, 293 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 1: you know what the funny thing is if you go 294 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: back now and listen to his stuff by today's standard, 295 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: so it's it's lukewarm. It's like, you know, it's like, 296 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, you could like a kid show. It's 297 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: nothing by today's standards. Carlin was great in his day. Um, 298 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff does not hold up all 299 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: that well, like the trippy hippie Weatherman stuff. It's just 300 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: it just isn't. It just doesn't. It just doesn't work today. 301 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: But a lot of comedy is that way unfortunately. UM. 302 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: Kyle Shannon has the best offensive mind of the game, 303 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: and the Niners are primed for an offensive breakout after 304 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: last year ranking fourteenth in yards and twenty one points 305 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: using mostly Nick Mullins and c. J. Beth at quarterback. 306 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: I think this team gets way way better on offense, 307 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: and part of my optimism is around the offensive line. 308 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: The Niners get two huge boosts in the off season 309 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: the resigning of left tackle Trent Williams. Williams was Pro 310 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: Football Focus is number one ranked left tackle last year. 311 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: Why Washington ever got to a point where they let 312 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: him go? It was crazy. And then they also signed 313 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: center Alex math Mac, a longtime veteran. Sixteenth ranks center 314 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: doesn't sound like great, but when last year center ranked 315 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: like thirty, it's way it's a sizable improvement for them. 316 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: And they still have Mike McGlinchey, a former first rounder, 317 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: on the right side, and he's very good, especially in 318 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 1: the run. So I like the offensive line, and that 319 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: really brings us to what's going to be one of 320 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: the best developments to watch in the preseason, Scott, and 321 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: that is Trey Lance. How ready is Trey Lance to 322 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: make an impact and how soon? And watching him in 323 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 1: the preseason will be fascinating. He could be every bit 324 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: as raw as an eleven start college player can be. 325 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: But if he looks good Man, the runway on Jimmy 326 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: Garoppolo could be very short. Yeah, I feel like it 327 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: would be. I have a couple of different thoughts on 328 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: this that A Shanahan should probably see the tactical advantage 329 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: of having a guy with that kind of mobility in 330 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: an offense he already likes to run. Uh. The other 331 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: one is this is, you know, Jimmy Garoppolo. We have 332 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: a quarterback that was benched not for injury, but legitimately 333 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: benched for poor play by four C. J. Beathard and 334 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: Nick Mullin's over the last two years. So I think 335 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: guided them to a Super Bowl two years ago. So 336 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: I mean there is that. I mean Garoppolo has there 337 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: has been functional Yes, Yeah, it's it. He knows the offense, 338 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 1: he knows all the nuances. You know, there's I think 339 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: he's got real competition behind him now, so yeah, and 340 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: maybe he'll be better for it. Maybe um Lands is 341 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: the player fantasy owners want in the game. It's just 342 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: a matter of when. And it makes it a tricky 343 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: to draft Trey Lance knowing you may get literally no 344 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: starts from him. Look look at Patrick Mahomes. They didn't 345 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: start him his entire rookie year, well weeks, you know, 346 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: in a meaningless week seventeen game. That's it. So um 347 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: the snazzy, the snazzy draft angle, Scott is this. You 348 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: draft both Garoppolo and Tray Lance at their ADP. For 349 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: Garoppolo it's picked two hundred sixty two, it's free, and 350 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: then Tray Tray Lance is going after board his quarterback. 351 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: So you take Lance in like that was that's roughly 352 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: round twelve, round thirteen. So you take Lance there at 353 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: twelve and thirteen. That's cheap considering how good Tray Lance 354 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: can be. You back them up with Jimmy Garoppolo as 355 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: the last pick of your draft, and you've got Kyle 356 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: Shanahan starting quarterback, And why do you want Kyle Shanahan's 357 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 1: starting quarterback? Even if it's Jimmy Garoppolo. The last three 358 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: years Shanahan's quarterbacks as a team, San Francisco has finished 359 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: and nineteen in touchdown passes, most of them thrown by 360 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: Nick Mullins and c. J. Beathard. Yeah, that's that's pretty good. 361 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. And you've only invested a thirteen rounder 362 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: and a twentieth rounder to get that quarterback hook up. Yeah, 363 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: if I remember correctly, Matt Ryan had some good stats 364 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: with Shanahan too. Matt Ryan did, Okay, Okay, let's talk 365 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: to wide receivers. Brandon iok is fascinating to me. I 366 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: think he just had one of the better rookie seasons 367 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:42,719 Speaker 1: that nobody's talking about last year in his final six games, 368 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: by the way, in the middle of which he had COVID. 369 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: In his final six full games, despite catching one hoppers 370 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 1: from Bethard to Mullins, his average line was twelve targets, 371 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: eight receptions, eighty three yards and almost a touchdown per game. 372 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: That's almost Higby without everyting exactly exactly. Now, in fairness, 373 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: Kittle was gone for half of those games. Samuel has 374 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: gone for half of those games. But it also demonstrates 375 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: that I you can carry a passing offense. That's that's 376 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: the way I see it is that I showed that 377 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: he's a true Alpha, even even with nobody else to 378 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: throw too. He's got I think he has wide receiver. 379 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: I think he has like wide receiver ten twelve upside 380 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk absolutely completely. Then there's Deebo Samuel who lost 381 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 1: much of last year. First he had the preseason foot 382 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: injury that cost him three or four games at the 383 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: start of the season. Then he got COVID, Then he 384 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: had a hamstring injury. But Deebo Samuel still played in 385 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 1: seven games and he led the NFL in yards after 386 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: catch at twelve yards. Just unreal, which is unreal. Yeah, 387 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: he basically had a negat I'm pretty sure he did 388 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: have a negative a dot average stuff that I think 389 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: it was negative point two yards was a dot. So 390 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: they're throwing bubble screens to him, and he was turning 391 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: a typical bubble screen into a game of twelve yards, 392 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: which is pretty impressive. It makes sense they used this 393 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: as an extension of the run game, and run games 394 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: are amazing. They are amazing. Um, if if they can 395 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: stretch him a little bit more downfield and tray Lance 396 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: would be the way to do that. Deebo Samuel gets 397 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: even more interesting, but he is a remarkably powerful so 398 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: he bullies people, he doesn't he I think he's the 399 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: closest thing to Percy Harvin when Percy Harvan went Rookie 400 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 1: of the Year and he was so good in those 401 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: first couple of years. I think I think Deebo Samuel's 402 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: right on that trajectory, which I love. Um perfect for 403 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: Trey Lance too, who reads the field low to high. Yeah, 404 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: so he'll be looking at Samuel first and then working 405 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: his way downfield. And tray Lance has a great de 406 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: ball deep ball to us. But but yeah, that's yeah. 407 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 1: Matt Waldman has talked about how that's how he reads 408 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: the field, and with Deebo downshort, that's perfect. Richie James 409 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: is your other probable starter. Jalen Hurt's coming off his 410 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 1: a CLF from last year, and I think Mohamedson, who 411 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: honestly could get cut. I'm not drafting him. Let's go 412 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: to the type quarterback it could be, could be. Uh, 413 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: let's go to the tight end. You already know everything 414 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: about George Kittle and you know he's awesome. I guess 415 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: the thing. I want to want you to know two things. 416 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: One is fully recovered from the injuries last year. You 417 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: may have forgotten he actually played in week sixteen weeks 418 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: seventeen last year. So fully healthy right now for George 419 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: Kittle and Scott you're getting him at a full round 420 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: later in a DPS third round this year. He was 421 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: second round last year for George Kittle. And his quarterbacking 422 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: is going to be better this year. One way or another. 423 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: The quarterbacking will be better. Yep. He he does have, 424 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: He does have more to compete with now. I mean, 425 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: I can Samuel are going to take take some targets 426 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: that he would have had the last couple of years. 427 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: But once again, more potent offense rise and tide raises 428 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 1: all boats. So that's the passing game, and we love 429 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: the passing game. The running games all frustration for fan 430 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: for fan at the owners. So you know, you know 431 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: what Cal Shanahan works. You're gonna get a lot of running, 432 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: but it's gonna be spread out over guys and in 433 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: different situations in ways that are gonna frustrate fantasy owners 434 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: a lot. I want to start with rookie Troy Sermon 435 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: because there's so much interested in him. They took Tray 436 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: Sermon in the third round, and I think that's a reach, 437 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: and I don't think he's a special player. Pro Football 438 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: Focus had Sermon graded in the sixth round. Obviously, the 439 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: Niners saw things they liked. But and there are things 440 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: that I like. He's he's got good balance, good start stoppability, 441 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: He's got decent vision. But there's a lot of things 442 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: I don't like about Tray Sermon. He's not that fast. 443 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: He's a bit tall for the position, which gives defenders 444 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: a big target to hit. He ran behind these big 445 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: offensive lines when he was at Oklahoma and Ohio State. 446 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: That opened up massive holes for him. Um, he's I 447 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: think he's just an average athlete and they rarely use 448 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: him in the passing game. I just I don't think 449 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 1: he's a special guy. But I think you're a little 450 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: I think you're a little warmer on a sermon that 451 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: I am, yeah, a little bit. Um. I I just 452 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: think that they're going to run a ton and it's 453 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: all about your opportunity in what's going to be a 454 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: good offense. I think he's gonna get touches. I I 455 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: think that they both might, and I think that the 456 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: rest of the running backs tend to have some injury history, 457 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: especially Mostart, so I love most when he plays, and 458 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson's going to miss the first month of the 459 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: season or so. I just think there's opportunity there. And 460 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: on the passing game thing, I do find it interesting 461 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 1: how Shanahan has taken like traditional like DeVonta Freeman in 462 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: Atlanta did not catch passes in college like he caught 463 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: maybe fIF and he was catching in the pros. So 464 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: I mean there's a chance development shoulders. People can't see 465 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: your shoulders, but that's why I said it. Um, So 466 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: let's talk about Mostart for a minute. When healthy is 467 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: a good back till last year, I think he appeared 468 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,040 Speaker 1: in seven games up the top of my head. But 469 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: what I can tell you for certain is five and 470 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 1: a half yards per carry for Mostard in a bad year, 471 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: and he's always had high yards percaring, high yards per reception. 472 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: That's been a Moster thing. And he can catch. Um. 473 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: He averaged points seven yards over expectation, which was tenth 474 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: best in the league last year. Most are too good back. 475 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: His average draft position makes it tricky to go to 476 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 1: war with him, he's running back twenty six and round five, 477 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: so you're you're kind of in that area. It's like 478 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: Mike Davis or he Mostart. Yeah, that's that's where you 479 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: get out of the clear cut starters and into the 480 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: backfields that you hope, you hope one of them can 481 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: take it over. Mike Davis is he's got all the 482 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 1: chances in the world to know. It's all the opportunity, 483 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: but so to Todd rule and he was brutal, so 484 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: opportunity doesn't always end up. And honestly, Mike Davis last 485 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: year when he did other like, he started out hot, 486 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 1: but he really tailed off quick. So yeah, right right, 487 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 1: he didn't look like he was a season long, full 488 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: time starter, which he had never been before last year. 489 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: Wayne Gallman is also now in San Francisco, and he 490 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: muddies the water. Is even further, who's actually pretty capable 491 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: last year with the Giants um and he likely him 492 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: Wilson later when he comes back. Are just gonna They're 493 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: gonna frustrate fantasy owners to some degree. Mostly, I'm just 494 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: staying away from this whole situation. Do you wonder so 495 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: most is it's the last year of his contract. Does 496 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: that change anything for you? Do they run him into 497 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: the ground a little more knowing they're not gonna keep 498 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: him potentially, Like, does that way at all? You know? 499 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: I just think Shannon is who he is, I think, 500 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: and you know, I don't. I don't think it does. 501 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: We'll just he'll just he'll just play his games with 502 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: that running back by committee and sometimes sometimes we play, 503 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: sometimes we play that factor. I just didn't know that. 504 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: I don't think it does here. But that's just me 505 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: a different coach. I would give you a different answer exactly. Yeah, 506 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: different coach, just different answer. The risk is player to 507 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: adp to me as Tray Sermon running back forty and 508 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 1: round nine. I realized that you're not paying a lot 509 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: at that point. But I feel like he's not the 510 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: I I can't tell you when he'll start a game, 511 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: and maybe not this year, even if most are goes out, 512 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: it might be Wayne Golman starting or Jeff Wilson starting. 513 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: So to me, there's more risk there the player at 514 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: the most upside compared to a DP. And there's a 515 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: bunch of niners that fall into this category. But Brandon, 516 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: a wide receiver twenty seven in the fifth round is 517 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: my guy showing some special traits that can make him 518 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: one of the league's better receivers. I think both Ayu 519 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: and Samuel fall for I think they're both ways I 520 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: would take. I would too, yeah, but not by a lot. 521 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: I think I might cheat you. They're separated by the 522 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: should be. Really they should be like the cup and 523 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 1: woods of it is similar to that. Um there's a 524 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: bit of a one to punch in Seattle, but not 525 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: really in the same way. Seattle's got Dk Metcalfoy. I 526 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: think in the the in fantasy owners minds, DK metcalf 527 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: is the focal point of that offense just because of 528 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: the you know, the highlights in the body and everything else, 529 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: the special trades that he's got. Let's let's break down 530 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks for this season. Sure, sure, I was 531 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: wondering if we're gonna take a break there or not 532 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: break coming up after the Seahawks. Alright, let's let's do that. 533 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: All right, Uh Seattle Seahawks. Let's start with the passing game, 534 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: which we seems to have each time. Uh, Russell Wilson 535 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 1: not a requirement. You want to start with Chris Carson. 536 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: It's fine by me because I love Chris car All right, 537 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: let's start with Chris Carson, because alright, I think we're 538 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:33,959 Speaker 1: two of the guys in the industry that love Chris 539 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: Carson a little more with nobody else. Everybody else was like, 540 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: I gotta take Chris Carson. I'm the guy like, yeah, 541 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: Chris Carson. I got him in the third, late third, 542 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: early fourth. Whatever is my RB two. I love this 543 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: because he can put up RB one numbers, which we 544 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: both believe he's going RB nineteen late third, early fourth, uh, 545 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: well below where we think. He's had nine touchdowns in 546 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: three straight years. He's had plus total yards each of 547 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: the you know, twenty nineteen, twenty nineteen. Last year he 548 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: missed like five games or so, so he did not 549 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: hit that total. But this year, uh, Pete Carroll has 550 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: already talked about running the ball more, being more committed 551 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: to the run um. I think the offense is gonna 552 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,239 Speaker 1: be a little better, a little more efficient, and uh 553 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: it's always efficient, really, that offense is always efficient. But 554 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: if he stays healthy, I think he's got another thirteen 555 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 1: hundred plus yard nine touchdowns in him and going where 556 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: he's going RB nineteen as well. But he's not going 557 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: is he's going as the last of the Bell cowbacks 558 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: and I think that's I think that's a flaw. Yeah, agreed, Agreed, 559 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: it is. You know, Carson is a good back. He's 560 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: good and there's just nobody to take carries away from him. 561 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: And I don't think any kind of threat. It's getting worse. 562 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: Penny just went in this month for a re like 563 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 1: another surgery on his knee, clean up on his on 564 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: his knee from last year, and he Penny's going our 565 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: B fifty three twelve round. I actually liked that and 566 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: tell this recent news because I want all the backup 567 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: running backs this year. I feel like with this seventeen 568 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: game season, those backup running backs, as I mentioned with 569 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: Henderson earlier, those backup running backs are going to get 570 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: on the field of the time whatever it is. But 571 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: with this one, Alex Collins has gaining all the work 572 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: right now with Carson and Penny not at O T 573 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: A S and uh Penny with the injury. Man, I 574 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: I just think it's going to be a lot of 575 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: Carson this year. So Carson could get two hundred eight 576 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: two three hundred total touches. Could be one of those 577 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: years and it's another one of those that we're gonna 578 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: talk about this now. Everybody's gonna draft him in the 579 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: fourth is RB nineteen, and at the end of the year, 580 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna be like, why didn't we see this? Guess 581 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: what if you listen to Fancy Football Weekly, you were 582 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: seen this coming. We're pretty confident about Chris carson Um. 583 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: All right, well, let's go to the passing game. Russell 584 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: Wilson was great in the first half last year and 585 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: then the second half disaster. All these people that have 586 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: been writing Russell Wilson in that passing game really got 587 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: stuck in the second half when the whole Seattle offense 588 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: really struggled. Russell Wilson is currently going as QB six. 589 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: He's going in the late fifth and that's my problem. 590 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: That's my problem with Wilson. You mentioned how he tailed 591 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: off at the end of the year. There's been a 592 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: lot of years in his career where he started slower 593 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: and then he was just super hot at the end 594 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: of the year, which is maybe he's a half season 595 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: quarterback and is finally end as season numbers always look good. 596 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, that's my problem with Wilson. I know he's 597 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: he's probably fair in his end of the season numbers 598 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: are going to be in that QB four or five, six, 599 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: seven eight range, Like he's gonna be a top twelve quarterback. 600 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: My problem is he goes in the fifth round. That's 601 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: that's even even in the sixth or seven, even the sixth, 602 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: it's too bad, Like I just can't do it. His 603 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: receiving game, though, there isn't a lot to talk about 604 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: about DK Metcalf. He is he yards eight to ten, 605 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: twelve touchdown guy. He's going as wide receiver for he's 606 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: going at that value. I don't see I don't see 607 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: a path to outside of injury. I don't see a 608 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: path for him not to be that thousand plus eight 609 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 1: to twelve years, eight to twelve touchdown receiver. It feels 610 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: like it feels like a lock for him. Yeah, you know, yeah, 611 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: you know, like Russell Wilson, he did have some games 612 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: where he just disappeared last year, but just just but 613 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: he's built for He's built to be in the end 614 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: zone and found in the end zone. And it's his 615 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: third year and there have been lots of lots of 616 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: players that have mentioned this that and fantasy players have 617 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: known for year third or year wide out is is 618 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: a big deal. But uh yeah, like Chado Chosen has 619 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: talked about this, where the third year, it's less about 620 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: less about you know, the stats going up, it's about 621 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: the receiver finally understanding the game and understanding how to 622 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: do certain things. And also, oh yeah, but that goes 623 00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: in line with it, you know, Like so Metcalf's on that, Like, 624 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 1: I just don't Every receiver has down games. Most receivers 625 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: have down games from time to time. It's gonna happen, 626 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 1: but he's going at the right place. What I don't 627 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,919 Speaker 1: like is Tyler Lockett a wide receiver twenty two. It's 628 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: just way too high for me. The end of the 629 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: fifth round. Um, I feel they're going to run more, 630 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 1: as Carol has stated, But even if they don't, Tyler 631 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 1: Lockett has been so inconsistent over the last two years. 632 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: I know, he has twenty eight touchdowns in the last 633 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: three years, which is amazing. That's awesome. That sounds season 634 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: is a solid number. It's like ten, ten and eight 635 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: or whatever. But like three years ago, he was getting 636 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: a touchdown like every other game like he was and 637 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: he was super super consistent. The last two years though, however, 638 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: he had fifty. Nearly of his fantasy points came in 639 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: four games. That that is killer. That means the rest 640 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: of the games are really bad. Yeah. Yeah. And last 641 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: year he had four games over seventy yards. Eight of 642 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: his ten touchdowns came in three games. Like that kills 643 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: you the rest of the time in Guilloteen leagues, He's 644 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: a total disaster. This is the exact opposite of what 645 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:14,839 Speaker 1: you want. Um. Yet Locket is being drafted. I think 646 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: people are drafting and based on remembering the highlights and 647 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: remembering the big games, and he wasn't on your team 648 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: the yard game, right, three touchdown games. I think he 649 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,919 Speaker 1: had two of those last year, two three touchdown games. Yeah, 650 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: that's what they're remembering, and they don't see that you're 651 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: gonna lose a lot of weeks because you want him 652 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: in there for those those weeks that he doesn't uh. 653 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: The problem with his draft position is I'm gonna list 654 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: players going within ten picks on either side of him, 655 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, Kenny Golladay, Jamaar Chase, Ceedee Lamb, Robert Woods, 656 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: d J Moore, Brendan Ayouk, Tee Haggins. I'd rather have 657 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: all of those them, you know, he's not. He's not 658 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,479 Speaker 1: on my draft board where where based on where people 659 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: are taking him right now? Now you on me, he's 660 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 1: an eighth or nine thrown pick him like, no, man, 661 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: he's my wide receiver three or flex. Yeah, but at 662 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: this point, the only way he's your wide receiver three 663 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:14,399 Speaker 1: is if you're really weak at other positions. Yeah, where 664 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 1: you're drafting him now? Um, And that's why I title 665 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: lock him not beyond any of my fantasy because I'm 666 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:23,240 Speaker 1: not doing that now. Eskridge is a rookie. They drafted 667 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: a muscular, strong, not not super tall, but like a 668 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: muscular strong, you know, bully out there on the field. 669 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 1: Good receiver that we'll see how much play he gets 670 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 1: the third receiver, and there has been relevant from time 671 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 1: to time. You could pick David Moore spots every now 672 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: and again, and I think we take calmed him, take 673 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: a chance to we we take calm to him a 674 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,720 Speaker 1: couple of times during the year. He's Chris Conley West, 675 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 1: so it's Conley in Houston. I think he's in Houston. 676 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: I think I think he is too. Yeah, yeah, he 677 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: was when we kept when we kept take comming him. 678 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 1: So that's why I went with the West. Yeah, you 679 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 1: you know you hit it. You your mother would call 680 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: you up the day before. He's gonna have a game 681 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 1: this week, call me up or just turn her head. 682 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,720 Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh boy. Uh No, but I like Ascar. 683 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 1: It's just when are you gonna get him? And when 684 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: are you going to know when to start him? He 685 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 1: should be on the field a decent amount though if 686 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: he if he wins that role, he should be on 687 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: on the outside there. He should be in the field 688 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: a decent amount. Um, let's go to the tight ends though, 689 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: it's really just Everett is the only draftable one. Disley 690 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: and Parkinson are being drafted. I know there's hype about 691 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 1: Parkinson being, you know, the six foot seven, big potential 692 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: red zone target and Pete Carroll's talked about him, but 693 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 1: I need to see him be a factor before I'm 694 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: doing anything with him in fantasy. Gerald Everett is the 695 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 1: interesting one. I have long called him tight end Cordel 696 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 1: Patterson because he doesn't look a lot like Carol Patterson. No, 697 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 1: but he's super He's this big dude, He's super athletic, 698 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 1: He's great in space with the ball. Sometimes he can 699 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: take runs and like John who style, but he's scored 700 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: touchdowns running the ball. Uh. But mostly it's because he 701 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: has these big flash games or flash plays and then 702 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: he's gone, like he'll be gone for weeks or gone 703 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 1: for like he'll have a forty yard play and then 704 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 1: he's gone for the rest of the game. And he 705 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: looks great on the play exactly. You under see that 706 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,399 Speaker 1: playing go Oh my god, he's you know, he's such 707 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: a talent. They'll have to find ways to get him 708 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: the ball and then the rams wouldn't exactly. But the 709 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 1: hope here is dis Lee has been great when in 710 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: the game, and then he gets injured and they've had 711 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: tight ends have good games there. I think that's the 712 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: hope is that Everett is healthy all year and he's there, 713 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 1: you know, one man tight end show, which could end 714 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 1: up being he's going tight end twenty. He's going behind Higbee, 715 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 1: which I think is actually fair because I think he's 716 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: a lot safer. But Everett has some really high upside. 717 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: If Smith's going before them, and Smith shouldn't go before them, 718 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: Conklin is going to be a problem. Conklin is going 719 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: to be People don't realize here's they're most coaches. When 720 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: the most coaches talk you should assume they're lying. Mike 721 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 1: Zimmer is generally honest to a fault, and when Mike 722 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: Zimmer tells you that if Smith's not going to break out, 723 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: you should listen to him. Coaches never saying our guy 724 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,799 Speaker 1: is not gonna break it off, but so he does. 725 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: I would pay attention to the Vikings played two tight 726 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: end sets, like second most in the league or something. 727 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 1: They play three tight end sets the most in the league, 728 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: which is unreal. Tells you how bad their offensive Yeah, 729 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: that tells the yea offensive line and wide receiver three, 730 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 1: which they don't have right exactly. Um, okay, so give 731 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: me the riskiest player at current ADP for the Seahawks. 732 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: It's Tyler Lockett. I think I think I was pretty 733 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,240 Speaker 1: clear on that one player at the most upside compared 734 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 1: to ADP. Do we both think it's Chris Carson. It's 735 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 1: it's Chris Carson. I mean, you could make a case 736 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: forever just because tight end twenty is really low for 737 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: a guy that could be a start tight end every 738 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 1: a lot of weeks. But yeah, it's Chris Carson, who 739 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 1: could be an RB one and he's going to RB nine. 740 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 1: Are you know a top twelve running back, but he's 741 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:13,320 Speaker 1: going to RB nineteen when we come back the Arizona Cardinals. 742 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray coming off a huge season, will tell you 743 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: if we like that to repeat, can he get better 744 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: in year three? There are some key changes to this 745 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 1: team we're going to talk about and we will help 746 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: identify the riskiest and upside players from the Arizona Cardinals 747 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 1: when we come back. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul 748 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 1: Charchi and Scott Fish with you. Arizona brings back the 749 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 1: highest scoring quarterback in many fantasy leagues, Kyler Murray last 750 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: year and Scott the way he turned into it was 751 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: the huge vault in the running output that he had 752 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: from his rookie year to his sophomore year, roughly double 753 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: the yards and he went all the way to eleven 754 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns last year. I will say a little bit 755 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 1: was expected. I mean, when he injured his shoulder in 756 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: his rookie season, he stopped running the ball, so he 757 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 1: knew the right numbers would be come up, would come up, 758 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 1: but not that much, not that I don't think anyone 759 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,240 Speaker 1: expected that now A little bit troubling. The passing numbers 760 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 1: remained pretty modest passing yards is not a lot of 761 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: today's NFL. Yeah, a lot. Like I'm pretty sure Steve 762 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: Young and ninety two lead the NFL with three touchdown 763 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: passes and like under three thousand, you're probably right. Um, 764 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 1: his twenty six touchdowns are you know, sessions were okay, 765 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: but really thirty yards twenty six touchdowns means he was 766 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 1: passing as well as Philip Rivers, Baker Mayfield. I mean, 767 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 1: you know, those are not high output passers from a 768 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 1: fantasy standpoint, and that's where Kyler Murray was. So the 769 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,839 Speaker 1: hope here is the passing in his third year gets 770 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 1: a little bit better for Kyler Murray. So even if 771 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: he doesn't get the eleven rushing touchdowns and running even 772 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,799 Speaker 1: the most mobile quarterbacks almost never back to back, even 773 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 1: the kind of like Lamar Jackson, who obviously rushing numbers 774 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: fell off a cliff after last two years ago. Um, 775 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: you know you don't even if that, Even if that 776 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: falls off, the hope is that the improvements in his 777 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: passing will offset it a little bit. Um. Where it's 778 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 1: really interesting is what if the running numbers do hold 779 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 1: up and he's a better passer. That's that's in the 780 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 1: range of outcomes. It's possibly, it is possible. Let's talk 781 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: about his his his offensive line and his past protection. 782 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: It is a medium to good past protection line. And 783 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: they added center Rodney Houston Hudson excuse me, who was 784 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: awesome as a pass blocker for most of his career. 785 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 1: He's in his twelfth year, but he still has got 786 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 1: tread on the tire. And the Raiders just you know, 787 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 1: blew up their whole offensive line and started over. And 788 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 1: the Cardinals bring him in here, he will help um 789 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: and then he's uh, they added in or they add 790 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 1: They've got left tackle d J. Humphries, who was very 791 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: good last year. Pro Football Focus tracked Humphries with the 792 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: highest percentage of positive run blocks in the league. So 793 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,439 Speaker 1: there's some talent on the offensive line guards and yeah, 794 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 1: just okay, but won't be running for his life and 795 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 1: maybe he won't be and that's you know, that could 796 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: be that could be our i too. So let's go 797 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: to Let's go to the focal point of of the 798 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: receiving group, and that's obviously DeAndre Hopkins. A mild disappointment 799 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 1: last year, finishing ninth and fantasy points, but mostly because 800 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,720 Speaker 1: he only had six touchdowns. His lowest in five years. 801 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: But DeAndre Hopkins is as consistent as they come, and 802 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:36,320 Speaker 1: you figure the touchdowns will regress positively back to the 803 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: nine or so that he typically gets. And I think 804 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 1: he's right now. It's going off the board at wide 805 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: receiver four in the early second round. I think that 806 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 1: sounds just just right for him. No issue with that 807 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 1: at all. After Hopkins, the whole rest of anybody else 808 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 1: who can catch a pass is all up in the 809 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: air here, and everything's very muddy. A J. Green, Christian Kirk, 810 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: Dull Moore, all battling for playing time. UM. They do 811 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: use a lot of four receiver sets, so all four 812 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 1: will be on the on the field sometimes. UM. And 813 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:09,799 Speaker 1: where it's kind of fascinating is if you think Kyler 814 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 1: Murray's gonna throw the same twenty six touchdowns he had 815 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: last year, and if we think like ten are gonna 816 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 1: go to DeAndre Hopkins, that leaves sixteen touchdowns. So there's 817 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 1: room for somebody to do well. So let's start with 818 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 1: A J. Green, who was straight garbage last year. Him. 819 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 1: He people forget he played all sixteen games last year, 820 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 1: all sixteen. It was either two or three touchdowns on 821 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: the season. That's it. He was wide receiver seventy four 822 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,879 Speaker 1: in Fantasy double digit target Day where he caught one ball. 823 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: I think he did. I think that did happen, which 824 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 1: is embarrassing. Um. This contract is a one year deal 825 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: for six million guaranteed, which is kind of a lot 826 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: six million dollar guarantee for a guy coming up that season. 827 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:55,800 Speaker 1: So I think he has some kind of role on 828 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 1: this team, and maybe the new environment ends up helping him. 829 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 1: But can you say at this stage that A. J. 830 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: Green is better than Christian Kirk. Nope, I can't either, 831 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,359 Speaker 1: So I don't know that Green is how much he's 832 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: gonna be on the field. I think Kirk's on the 833 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,880 Speaker 1: field more than Green is, and I think i'd prefer 834 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,359 Speaker 1: to have Christian Kirk if I had to pick one 835 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: of the two. He's in his fourth season, but Christie 836 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,399 Speaker 1: Kirk is only twenty four years old. He's still very young. 837 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 1: He's still got room to improve, which we would take. 838 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: And last year, a little more than a bye week 839 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: filling his non touchdown games were a total disaster for Kirk, 840 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 1: where he averaged three receptions for thirty yards. Yeah, and 841 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,160 Speaker 1: he ended up finishing his wide receiver fifty eight last year. Yeah, 842 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm touching either of those guys. No, 843 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: I don't think I want either one. Maybe more interesting 844 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 1: is second round rookie Ron Delmore. Do you like Rond Delmore? 845 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 1: I do? I do. I have been quoted as saying 846 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 1: that when I watched film on him, he reminded me 847 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 1: of a squirrel in traffic, how quickly he changed direction. 848 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,359 Speaker 1: He is a water bug and a squirrels, a little 849 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: bit of both, and he's five ft seven. He's tiny, 850 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: but he is fast, and his whole deal has change 851 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 1: the direction right. He will, he will. He will make 852 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: opposing players look ridiculous, look silly. And um, he'll get 853 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 1: slot work. He will be the star. I think he 854 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: weak one. He's your starting slot receiver on this team. 855 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: To um, he'll get bubble screens, gadget plays. Uh. They'll 856 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,400 Speaker 1: even run him periodically if they use him at all, 857 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 1: like he got used in college. And he needs to 858 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 1: stay healthy. That it was a problem in college. Now 859 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 1: he's gonna have even bigger and faster guys hitting his 860 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 1: five ft seven frame. And I think that's the worry 861 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 1: on Ron Delmore. Squirrels get hit sometimes. Squirrels get hit. 862 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: What do you think about a if if he's gonna 863 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 1: get hit in traffic, do we call him road kill 864 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 1: More instead of Ron Delmore? Can this be our first 865 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 1: official nickname of the season. It is a little mean. 866 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,239 Speaker 1: He's not hurt yet. Do you have to wait for 867 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 1: to get her? I think for him to take some hits, 868 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: all right, when he gets hurt. So it's gonna be 869 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 1: like week four, and I'm gonna have forgotten about this 870 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: when it's week four and it's early October. Remind me 871 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 1: road kill More for four months? All right? Thank you 872 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,960 Speaker 1: very much? On Twitter? Will hut me out there? Uh? 873 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 1: Of this group? No, we'll come back and talk a 874 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,759 Speaker 1: little more about him later. Tight Ends nothing to even 875 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 1: talk about here. There is no tight end worth and 876 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 1: that's all that matters. Let's go to the running backs 877 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:29,760 Speaker 1: and where I am also really hesitant with the running 878 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 1: backs here. Some people are high on Chase Edmonds. I'm not. 879 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 1: I can't muster any enthusiasm for him. He's not a 880 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 1: goal line back. He's only been allowed to run one 881 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 1: time from inside the five yard line. At least he 882 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: scored on that, right, No, he did not minus one 883 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 1: yards on his one ride. From inside the five yard line. 884 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: I thought you were tricking me for a second there. 885 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:57,399 Speaker 1: So you know, the whole the hope is Kenyan Drake 886 00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 1: has gone and that you know, Chase Edmonds is gonna 887 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,399 Speaker 1: pick up a lot of that role. But I don't 888 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 1: think you. I don't think you will, and I think 889 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 1: he is nothing more than a fifty fifty player with 890 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 1: James Conner, who we're going to talk about in a minute. 891 00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: I think Connor is gonna get the goal line work. 892 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 1: And even when Kenyan Drake would miss some time, Edmonds 893 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: didn't always make an impact. Look at Week nine last year, 894 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 1: he got twenty five touches with Kenyan Drake out turned 895 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: into eight scoreless yard that's it. That's not good. No, 896 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 1: that's not good. Three yards barely three yards of touch. 897 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 1: His best attributes for Chase Edmonds or his hands, he's 898 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:35,839 Speaker 1: gonna catch probably fifty sixty balls PPR safety net um 899 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: flex guy. If you just want to get your four receptions, 900 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 1: your forty yards and you're you know, like forty rushing yards. 901 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,560 Speaker 1: So basically he should be being drafted maybe around ahead 902 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 1: of the j C. Jake mckissic's, uh, maybe a couple 903 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 1: rounds ahead of the Cohens and Hines and stuff. But 904 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:55,840 Speaker 1: that's not where he's going. No. In fact, well we 905 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 1: can talk about exactly that in just a second. For 906 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: James Conner, I thought he looked totally spent last year. 907 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 1: I think the career is all but over. But Jay 908 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: Semans isn't a full time back, and so I think 909 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: Connor is gonna get some run here, probably in the 910 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 1: neighborhood of a hundred twenty touches something like that. It'll 911 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,400 Speaker 1: be eight touches a game, and Connor probably gets the 912 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 1: goal line work. And I just I don't want any 913 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 1: part of either one of these guys. I don't think 914 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 1: they're very good. And I could mention that James Conner 915 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 1: has through his career has been like a top five 916 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:32,480 Speaker 1: guy in goal line work work, uh you know, first 917 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 1: down plunges, stuff like that. But um yeah, he'll he'll 918 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:39,200 Speaker 1: probably continue that role, but he may not be that 919 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 1: guy anymore. He he he just he looks so bad 920 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 1: last year. And I know the Steelers offensive line was horrendous, 921 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,760 Speaker 1: but at some point, like Dalvin Cook has been running 922 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 1: behind a horrendous offensive line, Christian McCaffrey has been running 923 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:56,400 Speaker 1: behind a horrendous offensive line, and they still are productive. 924 00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,439 Speaker 1: James Connor couldn't do that. Um and and you also 925 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:03,320 Speaker 1: add in the further frustration that's gonna come from Kyler Murray, 926 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 1: who does run from inside the five. They've given him 927 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 1: eleven carries inside the five in his two years, and 928 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,280 Speaker 1: that's going to add to the frustration for Chase Edmonds 929 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: and James Connor owners. I don't think that's stopping. He 930 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:19,920 Speaker 1: might be Josh Allen with for that. He even in 931 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 1: his size, he's even in his size, he's more of 932 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 1: their goal and back. He might be the riskiest player 933 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 1: at their ADP is Chase Edmunds going off the board 934 00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:28,399 Speaker 1: and round six running back twenty nine. I think it's 935 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: totally unwarranted for reasons. We just mentioned the player with 936 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:34,720 Speaker 1: the most upside compared to ADP, rondel Moore wide receivers 937 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:39,640 Speaker 1: seventy four, round six. We'll take that. That's that's solid. 938 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: That's solid value right there, big playability. I don't know 939 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 1: how long he'll be upright, but I like it. Yes, 940 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,120 Speaker 1: I agree, well before he goes to road kill. Yes, 941 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 1: all right, we've had fun. We did me A Stranger 942 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: is a long podcast. I feel that's partly because we 943 00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 1: haven't talked in such a wide at it's been. It 944 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 1: has been a long time, and we had all the 945 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 1: Scott fish Bowl stuff to talk about it.
