1
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: Everybody. It's Monday, October three two. Welcome to the NFL

2
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Show. ME and your man nam G Marcus

3
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: Grant alongside Michael left Florio and the specialist, that cast

4
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 1: of dozens something round of plots hoping they put put

5
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: on this show pretty much every day, and between this

6
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: Florio the Q and a show on Friday, the Startom

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: Sit HUM show on Thursday, the Sunday Game Day kickoff show,

8
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: we are pretty much with people like almost every single day. Now. Yeah,

9
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: if they don't have enough of us by now, I

10
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: don't want them to get anymore. I guess I don't know,

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: because I feel like at some point it's sort of

12
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: the law of diminishing returns if you keep listening us.

13
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: Although we appreciate you listening, subscribing, commenting, all that kind

14
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: of stuff. We appreciate you guys all following along. It

15
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: is a Monday show, which means we got a whole

16
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: lot to get to. We'll have our biggest fantasy takeaways

17
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: from the week. We'll have some waiver wire targets, will

18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: do some maddened movers. We will also do a new

19
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,759
Speaker 1: segment called Cap or No Cap, which side note if

20
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 1: you listen to this show and you also watch NFL

21
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live, you may see something similar on that show too.

22
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: I'm letting you know that this was not a coordinated effort.

23
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 1: This happens to be one of the biggest coincidences of

24
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: all time. Trust me. For when when I got the

25
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: text from our producer Alex Wilkes saying, Hey, you guys

26
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: need to bring a hat because we're doing a series

27
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: a segment called cap or No Cap, it was like

28
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: something suspicious here. We're also I was like, wait on

29
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: another show, because I'm already bringing one in for for

30
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: the podcast. It's just, you know, the biggest plot twist

31
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: of all plot twists, that we're doing it on both shows. Uh.

32
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: We got a lot to talk about. As I mentioned,

33
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: let's start with some fantasy headlines, and this one an

34
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: unfortunate one. It came down just before we started recording

35
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: this show. Javonte Williams left the game on Sunday against

36
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: the Raiders with a knee injury. He was immediately ruled

37
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: out for the game, and we have found out the

38
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,639
Speaker 1: reason why. Tom Pellicero tweeting just before as I mentioned,

39
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: before we started that Williams has a torn a c L.

40
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: His season is over. That is obviously unfortunate news for Williams,

41
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: unfortunate news for the Denver Broncos as well. Obviously, Melvin

42
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,399
Speaker 1: Gordon takes a big step forward. He's the guy who's

43
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: sort of next up there. But we did see a

44
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: lot of Mike Boone on Sunday after Williams went down.

45
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: I will do waiver wire pickups a little bit later,

46
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: but it seems like the obvious pivot right now is

47
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: for folks who have Javontay Williams. I guess you out

48
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: and get Mike Boon. Yeah. I think Mike Boone now

49
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: knowing that Javonty Williams is out for the year, becomes

50
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: the top waiver wire guy because he's not just like

51
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: a band aid like a lot of these other running

52
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 1: backs that we've been picking up in recent weeks where

53
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: because the starter was out a game or two or

54
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: something like that, This is the rest, This is now

55
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: the life for the Denver Broncos. Like, there's no more

56
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: Javonty Williams. So I anticipate will get a split between

57
00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 1: Boone and Melvin Gordon. Melvin Gordon signing looks super important now. Um,

58
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: but Melvin Gordon has been struggling himself, like he leads

59
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: the NFL and fumbles right now, one per game he's averaging.

60
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: He had a bad drop yesterday. Uh And Mike Boone actually,

61
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: while they had the same number of carries, Mike Boone

62
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 1: played more snaps and had more targets yesterday than Melvin Gordon.

63
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 1: I thought it was very telling that when Williams went out,

64
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: it was Boon that came in first and started getting

65
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: those opportunities. And so, you know, I don't know if

66
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 1: this has to do with the fumbling issues. You know,

67
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: all reports are that Gordon has really been working on

68
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: it and really is is taking it seriously and taking

69
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: it hard that he's holding that he's not holding onto

70
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: the football. But Mike Boon gets a big boost also,

71
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: you know, just as a side note, I mean, don't

72
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: say Broncos offense still really hasn't put it all together.

73
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: Williams was kind of the bright spot in that offense.

74
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: This is a big blow to everybody in that Denver

75
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: offense now, and and my thinking is like I'm gonna

76
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: guess they just lean in even more and start passing

77
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: the ball like you traded for Russell Wilson. You gave

78
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: up all of those assets. You've made him a very

79
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: very wealthy man, uh to play for you at this

80
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: point now with with Javonta down and you having Mike

81
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: Boone and Gordon like, it's time for russ And and

82
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton and Jerry Judy like they're gonna have to

83
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: step up even more. I think so if you have

84
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: those guys on your fantasy team, I think it could

85
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: just mean even more volume for them moving forward. That

86
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: very well maybe the case. And again, best wishes out

87
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: to Javon s Williams. Hopefully a speedy recovery uh and

88
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: we see him back for the start of next season.

89
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 1: Other big news in Indianapolis, Jonathan Taylor left that game

90
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter against the Tennessee Titans suffered a

91
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: high ankle sprain on Sunday. We're still waiting for updates

92
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: about Taylor Florida. The tough thing here is it's a

93
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: short week for the Colts. They play on Thursday night,

94
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: and certainly if it's a high ankle spring the likelihood

95
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: he's gonna be out for a couple of weeks. You know,

96
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: I know, Nihim Hines is still out there. But this

97
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 1: there's no easy way to replace Jonathan Taylor. No, he

98
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: was the one dot oh one for a reason. And

99
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: I know he's been off to a slow start for

100
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: for his standards, but he's been getting just so much

101
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: work each week you start him every single game. I

102
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: do agree. I know there's gonna be a lot of

103
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: people being like the hem Hans is already rostered, and

104
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: but he's still available in like something like close to

105
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: NFL dot com leagues. And if you are the J

106
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: T T manager and he Hans has already rostered, I

107
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: think Dion Jackson is a pivot this week as well. Yeah,

108
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: just again, if you go up there and like, hey,

109
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: you know, he minds is already rostered. Congratulates herself on

110
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 1: playing in a smart league with smart people, But for

111
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: everybody else, that's still an option out there. And as

112
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: a florial mentioned, Deon Jackson a name to keep an

113
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: eye on. Also. Will just obviously be monitoring this situation

114
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: as the week goes along to see what the prognosis is.

115
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: Some news coming out of Atlanta, the Falcons have plays

116
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 1: Cordarol Patterson on injured reserve. He's been dealing with a

117
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: knee injury. This means he's going to miss the next

118
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: four games at least for the Falcons. So does this

119
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: mean it's Tyler Algiers season. Algier, I think is the

120
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: top pick up here. We're gonna talk about him more

121
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: with the waiver wire guys, but he played the most

122
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: snaps of the backup running backs. Him and Caleb Huntley

123
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: split the carries. But Algier just looks like the more

124
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: explosive option, where Huntley looks like the goal line option.

125
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: And we're gonna talk plenty to about how they have

126
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: the best blocker in the world and Kyle Pitt's opening

127
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 1: up running aways for them here and I better about

128
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: that at all. Uh Yeah, We'll see what happens with

129
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: with Cordero Paterson the next few weeks. But Algier is

130
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: gonna be very popular. I know the Dynasty folks were

131
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: a big fan of him, and fancy as a big

132
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 1: fan two. When I saw them a couple of weeks

133
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: ago against the Rams, Algier was on the field a lot,

134
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: so they definitely like him. This is gonna be definitely

135
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: his chance to shine in the next month in Pittsburgh.

136
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: Not an injury situation, but a change at quarterback Mitch

137
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: Trobinsky was replaced by Kenny Pickett in the third quarter

138
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: of the Steelers loss to the Jets. Of course, pick

139
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: It also threw an interception on his very first throw.

140
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Kenny Pickett did not have a ball

141
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: touch the ground. He was ten of thirteam with three interceptions.

142
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: Every ball he threw was caught by somebody. Maybe not

143
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: on his team, but somebody caught his pass. That's an

144
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: impressive feat right there. But but I know the three

145
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,799
Speaker 1: inns sceptions is rough. But I'm excited for Kenny Pickett,

146
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 1: Like he came in and immediately gave a spark to

147
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: the Steelers offense that desperately needed one. I mean with

148
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: Mitch they were just below a below average offense and

149
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: it looked very pedestrian. At least Pickett is some unknown

150
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: he he brings in. He's mobile. He scored the two

151
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns. I think he's a guy that you pick

152
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: up this week. You don't start him. But I'm excited

153
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: for what he could mean for those receivers around him.

154
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: Very interested to see what it means. I'll say that

155
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: just sort of by a quirk in one league, I

156
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: set Deonte Johnson. In another league, I started George Pickens,

157
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: and both those moves turned out to be the right

158
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: move worked out. It very much worked out for me.

159
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: I will say this though, next week, I still think

160
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: you can start Deonte Johnson. Everybody else, I would be

161
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: willing to sort of sit and wait and see at

162
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: least the past catchers. Nog Harris is another guy you're

163
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: starting as well, but the pass catchers, because you're not

164
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: counting on Chase Claypool or George Pickens generally in a

165
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: really big way, I think you can afford to wait

166
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: and see what Kenney Pickett means for this offense before

167
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: you start any of those guys. I agree. I will

168
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: say that, like right now, George Pickens is someone I

169
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: would be trying to get on my roster. He had

170
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: a lot of targets yesterday. I think he's ascending to

171
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: be their number two target. But I do agree, like

172
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: I want him on my roster, but I want him

173
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: on my bench because I want to see him and

174
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: pick it do it more than just you know, in

175
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: a game in relief like yesterday. Also, if I had

176
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: nag Harris, I would have been super frustrated watching Kenny

177
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: picked the run for two touchdowns. I'm sure a lot

178
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: of people were salty about that. Speaking assaulting. Alvin Camaro

179
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: was a surprise inactive for the Saints in their game

180
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: and London against the Vikings. Now we knew leading up

181
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: to it he was questionable, he had the rib injury.

182
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,959
Speaker 1: We saw that they elevated Latavius Murray from the practice squad.

183
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: But I still think a lot of people went to

184
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: bed on Saturday night kind of hoping expecting that Alvin

185
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: Kamara was going to play. I know our own own

186
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: Adam Rank got caught with the Camara in his lineup.

187
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: I know you played the Twitter villains suggesting that maybe

188
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: everybody gets a pass for this one. I was the

189
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: bad guy because and at first I just made a

190
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: poll that was like if someone was asleep, because like

191
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: usually when someone is out on Sunday, we get worried

192
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: about it. On Saturday night or Saturday in the afternoon.

193
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: At some point there was no reporters, nothing, being like

194
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: Alvin Camara is truly up in the air. He might

195
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: not suit up or anything. So I was like, hey,

196
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: we live on the West Coast at sixty like, and

197
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: then I have a friend of mine who I was

198
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: playing in Fantasy, and he started Alvin Camaron. He was like,

199
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: do you mind if I switched him out for like

200
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: Rex Burkhead or George Generald Everett. I was like, no,

201
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: go ahead, and then that might be the difference in

202
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: the week he had. He ended up going with Generald Everet,

203
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: who scored had a pretty good game, and might that

204
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: probably is going to be the difference. But like, I

205
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: don't know. I I feel like certain things like this,

206
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: like I don't know, like we're we're not if you're

207
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: in a high stakes league or something like that, I

208
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: get it, you're just playing with friends and stuff Like

209
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like, look, if you're commissioner

210
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: and the people in your league are like it's cool,

211
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: then that's cool. I am definitely like, hey, look it's

212
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: those are the breaks. It sucks. I get it. So

213
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: I I understand both eyes of the argument, especially because

214
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: it was an early morning game and it's sort of happened.

215
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: By the way, if you were one of those people

216
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: and I saw this on Twitter, like I set three

217
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 1: alarms to make sure I got up to check and

218
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 1: everything was fine, and like, hey, if you did that, great,

219
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: don't be on your shaming people who didn't, who aren't

220
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: as obsessed about this game as you are. I'm glad

221
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: that you're obsessed. I'm glad that you're watching this show

222
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: and listening to this show. Um, but let's not shame

223
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: the people who decide that, you know what, I have

224
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: a life and I want to sleep in, especially if

225
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: you live in California and you weren't up at six

226
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: thirty to watch the Vikings and the Saints. My favorite

227
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: were like the other fantasy analysts who are like, we've

228
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: known about this game for months, and I'm like, yes,

229
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: our life revolves, I get it. And people were like,

230
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: maybe you didn't know about this. I'm like, do you

231
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 1: know what? What? I where? I worked like I knew

232
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: about the game. Don't worry, by the way, that this

233
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: is a chance for us to pop one of our

234
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: in house products, Fantasy Plus. If you have Fantasy Plus,

235
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: it's year gives you trade insights and also well automatically

236
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: plug guys into your lineup if you have somebody started

237
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: who was inactive. So in this case, as Alvin Camara

238
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: would have been pulled out of your lineup and replaced

239
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: with another suitable option. So it makes life easier. Besides,

240
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: you know what, you can do it for this week

241
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: because there's another London game that again starts early on

242
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 1: the West coast this week. So if you don't have

243
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: Fantasy Plus, you can just go get it. Like I said,

244
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: it's ten bucks for the whole year. Just go in

245
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy app and click the Fantasy Plus button

246
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: to upgrade today. Did you hear that? Bosses, we're plugging

247
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: the product pat us on the back. Send us to

248
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 1: Mexico City. That would be great. I'd love that too.

249
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: All Right, enough of our complaining. Let's get to some

250
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: of our biggest takeaways from Sunday, which actually we'll probably

251
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: involve some more complaining, but whatever, it's a different kind

252
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: of complaining. Uh. Florida and I put our heads together

253
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: came up with five things we learned from watching football

254
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: on Sunday. What was the first one for you? The

255
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: first one for me is that Breeze Hall has arrived

256
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 1: and and he is the Jets running back that you

257
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: want to start in fantasy moving forward. In the snaps

258
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 1: in Week four seventeen, carries six targets. He went off

259
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: for seventy eight yards and a to down and this

260
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 1: has been the trend. He's been playing more and more.

261
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: He's really the last couple of weeks taken over all

262
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: of the past catching usage there. Michael Carter still plays

263
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: a role. He's never gonna go away. But right now,

264
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: over the snaps, we're talking about him getting close to

265
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: twenty five opportunities like that is big time work for

266
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: running back that we know when he's getting this much volume,

267
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: he could do a lot of damage with it. And

268
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: sticking with the Jets real quick a bonus one. It's

269
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: time to worry about Elijah More. It really has time

270
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: to worry about Elijah More. I'll say this though. I

271
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,319
Speaker 1: mean Zach Wilson coming in didn't hurt Breeze Haul in

272
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,599
Speaker 1: any way, shape or form. So maybe that's when we

273
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: don't really have to worry about so much for me.

274
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: But you know, Miles Sanders read all your tweets. He

275
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: read them all. He probably printed them out, probably has

276
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 1: him on a wall in his house. He spent all

277
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 1: off seasons saying don't draft me. We're like, okay, I'm

278
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 1: not gonna draft you, and now dude is bowling. He

279
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: did it again on Sunday in the game against the Jaguars.

280
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: He's getting a ton of snaps, he's getting a ton

281
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: of touches, and again he's scoring touchsdowns, which is the

282
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: thing that apparently he wasn't allowed to do before this year.

283
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 1: Can gain Well, I know he scored a touchdown yesterday,

284
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: but Kenneth Gainwell really has not been as much of

285
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: a factor in this Eagles offense. And so you're talking

286
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: about the lead running back getting most of the work

287
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: in an offense that is easily racking up four hundred

288
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 1: yards each and every week. So if you went against

289
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders wishes and you drafted him, you're in a

290
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: pretty good place right now. Maybe for the rest of us,

291
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: you know, maybe we we should have not doubted him

292
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: at some point. Yeah, I'm willing to take the l

293
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: on Miles Sanders. I thought there was too many other

294
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: pieces there. Like I thought gain Well could take targets,

295
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: Hurts could take some goal line carries especially. That's the

296
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: biggest thing for me, Like they're using Melvic Gordon near

297
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: the goal line, and if that's if he's getting those

298
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: touches on top of all the volume he's getting, he's

299
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: an RB two with RB one upside. I was yeah,

300
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: absolutely so, Miles Sanders. We're we're sorry, and police, don't

301
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 1: don't just keep the receipts. You can toss the receipts away.

302
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: We're apologizing now for you. What else did you learn

303
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: this week? Stream? Everyone against the Detroit Lions? Like they're

304
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: currently in the top ten and fantasy points allowed to

305
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: every offensive position, and that includes giving up the most

306
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 1: fantasy points to quarterbacks and the second most to running

307
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 1: backs right now, like Gino Goff was what we thought

308
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: Alan Lamar was gonna be and and it was so

309
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: much fun, but this is becoming a The Lions are

310
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: the most scoring offensive team in football because their defense

311
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: gives up so many points, but their offense scores enough

312
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: that the team going against them has to keep scoring points.

313
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: It just leads to great fantasy fun. I think it

314
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: was Ian Hardett's who tweeted, and I don't even know

315
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: if this is true. I don't know if if this

316
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: actually happened, but he said, you know, the Lions might

317
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: go into Week five with the number one scoring offense

318
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: and the thirty second rank scoring defense. That's really where

319
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 1: they are right now, which as a fan makes them

320
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: fun to watch, like just gonna be a ton of points.

321
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: They scored forty five points on Sunday and lost because

322
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: you were gami to score, which, by the way, I

323
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: really would have thought that had happened at some point

324
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: in the history of the NFL, especially nowadays with the

325
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: rules slanted toward offense and passing games being so sophisticated,

326
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: I would have thought would have happened, but apparently not so.

327
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: Congrats to the Lions and Seahawks on score Gami, which,

328
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: by the way, if you don't follow the NFL score

329
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: Gami account on Twitter, you absolutely should, just because you know,

330
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: weird stuff like that happens every once in a while. Um.

331
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: Since I was apologizing to Miles Sanders, I should also

332
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: hand out an apology to Josh Jacobs. I was down

333
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: on Josh Jacobs this year. He was floating around that

334
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: RB dead zone and I would see his name pop

335
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: up when I was on the clock and be like, mm,

336
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: can't do it, not gonna do it. It just seemed

337
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: like the Raiders didn't really like him, and we spent

338
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: a lot of time talking about all the snaps he

339
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: played in the Hall of Fame game. Zamir White was

340
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: a name that was drawing some buzz, especially in dynasty circles.

341
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: They had Brandon Bold and they had a Mere Abdullah.

342
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 1: They traditionally have never really thrown the ball to Josh Jacobs,

343
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: but he is getting plenty of opportunities weekend and week out.

344
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: And while no one's ever going to confuse him with

345
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey or Austin Ekeler in the passing game, they

346
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: are throwing him the ball a little bit. And so

347
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: this is not just a one week thing. This has

348
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: been happening for several weeks in a row. So again,

349
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: sort of like Miles Sanders, I was kind of out

350
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: on Josh Jacobs this year, and I'm gonna say I

351
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: was wrong. Four weeks into the season. Josh Jacobs looks

352
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: like he is here to stay in the raidar offense.

353
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: I still think, look, he's probably still a low end

354
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: or a high end r B two, maybe at best

355
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: a low end RB one, but that was certainly better

356
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: than I had anticipated him being this year. Same and

357
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: the first two weeks I was feeling really good about

358
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: being low on him because I'm like, they're not throwing

359
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: him the ball at all, and that's the But the

360
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: last two weeks he's really taking that job and ran

361
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: with it. So and he gets a good matchup this week.

362
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: I believe they're playing the Chargers in the in week five,

363
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: so that's a good matchup for him. So we'll we'll

364
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: stay on Josh Jacobs. We were we we swung and

365
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: missed on that one as well. One last one? Where

366
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: are you going with your last? Your last? Notable? David

367
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: and Joku is a weekly startable tight end. I think

368
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: I know he had the really big game last week

369
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: where he finished as a top two scoring tight end,

370
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: and he was a big waiver wire pick up. Some

371
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: people that were a little bit, you know, cautious about

372
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: getting him in there starting lineup and meet myself included,

373
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: but I think you can now moving forward. Uh. I

374
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 1: know he had a big first half yesterday. The second

375
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: half wasn't quite what I was hoping it would be.

376
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: But he's still finished with seven targets, five catches seventy

377
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: three yards in a PPR league. That's double digit fantasy

378
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: points right there, and he was second on the team

379
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 1: and targets, So he's clearly someone that they're focusing on

380
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 1: getting the ball in the passing game. When we woke

381
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: up Sunday morning. I know you have the dilemma of

382
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: do you start David and Joku or George Kittle. We're

383
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: still waiting for Kittle to play. He's on Monday night

384
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: against the Rams. If let's let's say Joeku finishes with

385
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: more Fantasy points than Kittle this week, um, you know,

386
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: do you do you look at maybe making a change

387
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,679
Speaker 1: rankings wise going forward between those two. I think it

388
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 1: also depends for me on like what like if Kittle

389
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: has another night where he's getting like four or five targets,

390
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 1: then I'm gonna be really worried about him, and in

391
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 1: fact what I might do in that Yes, I will

392
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: change the rankings, but I'd also probably try to trade

393
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: George Kittle because he's still a big name in fantasy,

394
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,479
Speaker 1: and I think you could get a good amount for him.

395
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: I don't think a whole lot of people will trade

396
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: for David and Joku. So if you're in a similar position,

397
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 1: I think you can go that route. Like if you

398
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 1: have David and Joku and Kyle Pitts right now just

399
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: starting in Joku all day, which pains me to say,

400
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 1: but I agree it's funny. I remember we got tweets

401
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: earlier in the season about Hey, I've got Kyle Pitts

402
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: and George Kittle, what do I do? And we were like,

403
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 1: trade Kittle, Pitts is gonna go off. Now You're sitting

404
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: at two with two guys and it's like, I don't

405
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 1: know about either of them right now. I didn't think

406
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 1: that was gonna be the case. Our top performers of

407
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 1: the week Jared Goff with over thirty three Fantasy points,

408
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: four touchdown passes in the loss. Austin Ekeler finally came

409
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: to life nearly thirty five fantasy points, had three touchdowns

410
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: to help out. Justin Jefferson bouncing back like we all

411
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: knew he would. Thirty one Fantasy points for him over

412
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: in London. T J. Hawkinson a huge day eight for

413
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: Bucks seven or nine and two touchdowns. Nearly forty points

414
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: for Hawkinson, Greg Joseph five mate field goals for the Vikings.

415
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 1: That's scene points. In the Giants defense, six sacks, three

416
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 1: fumble recoveries, sixteen points. They are the top scoring defense.

417
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: Let's get through some of the top performers, though that

418
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: may or may not have been on that board. Russell

419
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: Wilson and you liked him coming into the week, I

420
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: sort of, you know, was just kind of keeping my

421
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: fingers crossed hoping it would come together. The Broncos still

422
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: have issues, but at least Russell Wilson put together a

423
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: good game. Yeah, he did it. If you watched the

424
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 1: game that like like, you know that Russell played well.

425
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: The stats look good. He didn't look as good at

426
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 1: times as the numbers looked. The rushing touchdown really did

427
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: help him salvage his day, but it was his best

428
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: game of the years so far. I would say so

429
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: that that's certainly a good sign. He got Courtland Sutton

430
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 1: a touchdown, he got Jerry Judy a touchdown. That's what

431
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,959
Speaker 1: we really care about as well for fantasy purpose. When

432
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: you talked about, you know, Sutton and Judy sort of

433
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,959
Speaker 1: being the new version of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett

434
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 1: and mostly how those guys always seemed to finish back

435
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: to back in the standings every week, and it sort

436
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: of looks like the same thing maybe happening with Courtland

437
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: Sutton and Jerry Judy and I'm here for it. Mentioned

438
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,959
Speaker 1: Austin Ekeler with the big day, and we have been

439
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: talking about Eckler in the sense of he hadn't been

440
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: playing badly, he just hadn't had those breakout days, and

441
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 1: it just seemed like the Chargers on Sunday decided, you

442
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: know what, we're just gonna feed our running back to football.

443
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 1: And they had Chargery moments where it looked like maybe

444
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: they're gonna give the game away, But overall it ended

445
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: up being a good day for them, and we're happy now,

446
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: aren't we. Yeah, And I think a big part of

447
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: it was the schedule and and the matchup. You could

448
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: say like, oh, yeah, Ekeler did this again in a

449
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 1: good matchup, but like that's what he is supposed to do.

450
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: He's supposed to take advantage of these games. And moving forward,

451
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: I mean, they still have a favorable schedule, like they

452
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: get the Browns, the Broncos are a tough one, then

453
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,479
Speaker 1: the Seahawks and Charge and Falcons after that. So I

454
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: think it gets it's gonna continue to get better and

455
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: better for all Sin Necklar. I saw some people saying

456
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 1: like now is the time to sell high on him.

457
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 1: I don't fully agree with that. I think like you

458
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: just kind of ride out with alsin You're drafting Afar

459
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 1: probably in the top five, Like no, like, stop stop, stop,

460
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: stop it. There's a reason you drafted him, Like why

461
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't you want more of this in your lineup? I

462
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: don't understand it. I don't Jamal Williams. This was a

463
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: week that everybody in fantasy football was on Jamal Williams.

464
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: And I said before that usually when that happens, things

465
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: tend to go sideways. This time it didn't. He got

466
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: to almost twenty four fantasy points, over a hundred rushing yards,

467
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, and when DeAndre Swift is there, Jamal Williams

468
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: still has a role. But in this line's offense being

469
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: so high powered, Jamal Williams, whether or not Swift is,

470
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: there's a guy that probably should be in more lineups.

471
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: He's played four games and in three of them he's

472
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 1: finished with two touchdowns. Like that is a guy. I

473
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: know he's not gonna keep that pace up. But the

474
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: fact that even when Swift is out there, he's their

475
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,159
Speaker 1: goal on runner. And then even when Swift is out there,

476
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: like he said, he has a role where he's gonna

477
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: get probably double digit touches with the amount of plays

478
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: that this line's offense has to run every week, I

479
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: think Jamal Williams right now is obviously a must start

480
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: as long as DeAndre Swift is out, but after that

481
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 1: it becomes a flex options. Absolutely a flex option this year.

482
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: Love what he's doing. Uh and hopefully by now he's

483
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,360
Speaker 1: gonna be rostered in most leagues. Hopefully that that has

484
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: happened already. Clyde Edwards Hilaire, This makes my brain itch.

485
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: I can't figure it out because when you look at

486
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: his usage rates right it is it's split their c H.

487
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,199
Speaker 1: Jerick McKinnon is still there. We saw a lot of

488
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: Isaiah Pacheco on Sunday against the Buccaneers. Yet Clyde Edwards Hilaire,

489
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 1: he gave you twenty two fantasy points. He right now

490
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: is a top four running back. It doesn't feel sustainable,

491
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,919
Speaker 1: but yet somehow like I'm afraid if I have him,

492
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: I'd be afraid to take him out of my lineup. Yeah,

493
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 1: I agree. And yesterday was the best day so far

494
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: this year for him, I would say, because the trend

495
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: early on with him and been like he'd be the

496
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: running back that they would use early in games, but

497
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 1: as the game went on they would just get away

498
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: from him. That wasn't the case yesterday he led this

499
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: team in snaps. He had nineteen carries and I saw

500
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: people on Twitter being like, oh he already is Like

501
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: it's like he's up there for like most receiving goal

502
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: on receiving touchdowns by running back. But clearly the Chiefs

503
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 1: that is a part of their game plan because it's

504
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: not just Clyde Edwards Hilayer. They ran that cool trickery

505
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: play for Jerk McKinnon that he got stuff at the

506
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 1: one yesterday. Clearly, getting their running backs involved in the

507
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 1: passing game near the goal on is a part of

508
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: their plans. So Clyde Edwards Hilaiyer is someone that I

509
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 1: think you start as an RB two and understand that

510
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: he has an RB one ceiling every week. The very wise,

511
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 1: very you know, savvy Sigmund Bloom tweeted on Monday morning

512
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 1: about how we as a group have sort of figured out,

513
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 1: you know, participation and opportunity and how that correlates to

514
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 1: fantasy points. But he said, you know, maybe when you

515
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: look at c E. H we need to figure out

516
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,880
Speaker 1: quality of opportunity because he is still splitting those those

517
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,439
Speaker 1: snaps back there, but the opportunities he are he's getting

518
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: tend to be high leverage opportunities where he has a

519
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: chance to score touchdowns and we haven't quite figured out

520
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: necessarily how to quantify that, but uh, you know, for now,

521
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: I think you just keep riding this train because it

522
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: just seems like it's going to keep going j K. Dobbins.

523
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: We sort of said this past week and hey, maybe

524
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: this was not a week to start j K Dobbins.

525
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: To wait and see and if goes off on your bench,

526
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: then you can at least feel good about the fact

527
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: that he's sort of back. And you know, he probably

528
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 1: went off on a lot of people's benches this week

529
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 1: in that game against the Bills. So if anything, we

530
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: should feel okay now that j K. Dobbins is back

531
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: and ready for a pretty good sized workload. Right Yeah,

532
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: I think j K Dobbins is once again a player

533
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: that you can start in fantasy football. He's still not

534
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: getting like all like. I still think there's room for

535
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: improvement with his workload of the snaps thirteen carries, four

536
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: targets yesterday. The touchdowns obviously really helped him, but even

537
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,959
Speaker 1: if you take those away, like double digit fantasy points

538
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 1: looks like a pretty safe floor for him right now.

539
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: So I think he's back in play as an RB two.

540
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,199
Speaker 1: But the scary thing is Marcus I still think he

541
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: has like untapped upside in this offense. I think he

542
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: does too, And the fact that he's got fifty of

543
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: the snaps is sort of amazing considering for years it

544
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 1: was kind of a three way split when you talked

545
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 1: about J K. Dobbins, Gus Edwards, you know, mark Ingram

546
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: was hanging around there for a couple of years there.

547
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 1: So if he's getting the snaps, I'm actually okay with that. Uh,

548
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: DK metcalf two weeks in a row A good fantasy

549
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 1: week for d k. Uh. You know we're we're gonna

550
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: talk about the Seahawks receivers a little bit later on

551
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: in this show, but uh, the thing what I wanna

552
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: talk about mostly about d K. Well one, I guess

553
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: we should talk about the fact that he looks like

554
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 1: he's he is a relevant target again two weeks in

555
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 1: a row. Is this sustainable in this new look Seahawks

556
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: passing game with Genal Smith playing as well as Genal

557
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: Smith is playing, and even more so than that, with

558
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: this passing attack being as funneled as it is, Like,

559
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 1: that's the thing I love most is when Gino is

560
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: throwing it's almost too Tyler Lockett or DK Metcalf. Yeah,

561
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: other people will get targets, but those guys have such

562
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 1: a large target share right now that I think DK

563
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 1: is is back and play. That's that's really great to hear.

564
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,479
Speaker 1: One thing that happened though with DK Metcalf. There were

565
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: tweets about him getting carted off the field during the

566
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 1: game and everybody had a collective freak out. Turns out

567
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 1: it really was that's serious. Uh. The tweet here, DK

568
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: Metcalf got carted off the field to use the bathroom

569
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: King energy and he quote tweeted himself saying that Clinch

570
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: walk wouldn't have made it with the laughing emoji with

571
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 1: the tears in his eyes. So we can all arrest easy.

572
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 1: D K did get Carter off the field. It was

573
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: not an injury situation. He just had bubble guts, that's all.

574
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,640
Speaker 1: It's like Lamar Jackson from a couple of years ago. Yeah,

575
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 1: we just need Lamar to actually admit to it, like

576
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: he won't admit to it. But we all know what's

577
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 1: going on. We've we've all seen that walk or that

578
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: run at some point So shout out to DK Metcalf

579
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: for just owning it, uh and being like, you know,

580
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:37,959
Speaker 1: up front about it. We got all have a good

581
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: laugh at it and we go on because you know,

582
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: they're running around, they get the metabolism going. It happens,

583
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: It happens. It happens to all of us pro athletes.

584
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: They're just like us. Last one. Mo Aley Cox and

585
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,479
Speaker 1: the Colts passing game has really been hard to figure

586
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: after Michael Pittman. Honestly, this feels more like and Adam

587
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: Rank that helps no one than anybody but mo Aley Cox.

588
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 1: He had a couple of touchdowns. I don't know what

589
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,479
Speaker 1: to make of this. A week ago it was Woods

590
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: that had tight end getting a couple of touchdowns for them.

591
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: It's an annoying weekly occurrence if you have Michael Pittman,

592
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: because you would like to see him get you know,

593
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 1: a touchdown or two. But I still think Moali Cox

594
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 1: could be fantasy relevant. He's a guy who like has

595
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: toyed with that in the past. Um, but until we

596
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: see either of these tight ends consistently do it, you

597
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: can't trust them. It's just no one I trust in

598
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 1: that past the game besides Michael Pittman. It's just it's

599
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 1: too volatile. There's too many guys that are getting the

600
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: ball spread around to them. So those are the guys

601
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: who did good. Let's talk about the guys who did

602
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: un good. And you know what, we could just make

603
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: this one big, long complaint session because you and I

604
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: are pretty much going the same direction. I mean, I

605
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 1: will let you start and I will fill in, but

606
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: please take the floor. Uh. For me, it is all

607
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: about Kyle Pitts, who you know, I was all about

608
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 1: this draft season and I built like my strategy around

609
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 1: getting Kyle Pitts in the third round. And the most

610
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 1: frustrating part is, like, it's not even Kyle Pitts struggling.

611
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: It's a fact that, like the Atlanta Falcons have decided,

612
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: our best course of action is to take away one

613
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: of our two playmakers were throwing the ball to and

614
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 1: just make this guy a blocker. I mean, in week

615
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: four he ran thirteen routes like Kyle Pitts ran third.

616
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 1: Your backup tight end is playing more snaps and running

617
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: the same number of routes as Kyle Pitts. And then

618
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 1: this is a game where I know they won, but

619
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: they completed seven passes like that is not sustainable. You're

620
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 1: not gonna be able to win games that way. And unfortunately,

621
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: because of Arthur Smith and Marcus Mariota, I think for

622
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: right now you really have to downgrade Kyle Pitts. He

623
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,719
Speaker 1: goes from the top five guy to like a borderline

624
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: tighten one. So I came into this week and you're

625
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: quoting Adam Ranks stat that Drake London had scored double

626
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: digit Fantasy points in every game of his NFL career.

627
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: Really felt like that was going to continue this week

628
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: against the Browns. Nope, he had two catches for seventeen yards,

629
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: seven targets. You talk about Mariota completing seven passes and

630
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 1: they went for at one point, they went a stretch

631
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: where I think they ran the ball like four, ten

632
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: or fifteen straight times in that game. It was just

633
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: awful in this passing game. And yes, I knew that

634
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 1: they weren't gonna be great all year long. I mean,

635
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: there's a reason Mariota has become a journeyman at this

636
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: point in his career, But I didn't think it was

637
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: going to be that bad, to the point that you

638
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: had people now calling for Desmond Ritter to get on

639
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: the field and become the starter. I don't know what

640
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: what the Falcons are doing offensively. You've got two really

641
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: good pass catchers and Kyle Pitts and Drake London, and

642
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 1: you're really not I don't think you're maximizing either one

643
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: of them. But this, this is a huge, huge disappointment.

644
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: I agree with you there, they are not maximizing either

645
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: of them. I feel better about London moving like, at

646
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 1: least London had seven targets yesterday and they're letting him

647
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: run routes like Kyle Pitts has become just a glorified,

648
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,479
Speaker 1: glorified blocker. It like so of the two when I'm like,

649
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,959
Speaker 1: I would be trying to acquire Drake London if I

650
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: I think Kyle Pitts. But what do you do because

651
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: you can't trade him. Nobody gonna take him off your hands,

652
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: right and I wouldn't want to trade I wouldn't feel

653
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 1: good about trading for him myself right now. Yeah, I

654
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: think you just I keep saying, like, I'm not dropping him.

655
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: I think he's too good in a two week of

656
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: a position to drop you likely have to start him

657
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: if you have invested him this bunch in him but like,

658
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's rough. Yeah, it's rough. And we

659
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 1: we are we we both you're unanimous in starting David

660
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 1: and Joku over him. But it's bad right now. Mistakes

661
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 1: were made, people will be blamed. Let's get a few

662
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 1: senses by your fans at NFL Fantasy. Let's start with

663
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: this one from Suarez x I X, which is what

664
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 1: nineteen I believe in Roman numerals. Uh, not starting Derrick Henry?

665
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: Like what why that? That's on you? That's on you man.

666
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: He's been playing well, he's got a good matchup. Yeah,

667
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: why why would you not start Derrick Henry? He was

668
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: and even on NFL like he was ranked as the

669
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: top three running back this week. Yeah, I'm just trying

670
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 1: to I need to figure out your logic here, dude,

671
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,040
Speaker 1: Like it's Derrick Henry. Why wouldn't you start him? I

672
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: just wanted to, like, who else do you? Who did

673
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: you start over Derrick Henry? I'm confused. Yeah, I'm trying

674
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: to think like they're like he had said, I guess

675
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: someone off the waiver wire or something. And it's not

676
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: even like it's not like Henry has been out or

677
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: you had a buy and like forgot to put him

678
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: back in. I don't. Yeah, that's on you, dude. Uh.

679
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 1: This next one from Lion Beard forty starting Marvin Jones

680
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: over Josh Reynolds. I can understand this one, you know,

681
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: I I can. I can at least make a case

682
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: for why this happened. You know, Christian Kirk did get

683
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: shut down pretty much against the Eagles, and Jamal Agnew

684
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 1: was the like we all thought it would. At least

685
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: I thought it would be Marvin Jones would day Jones out,

686
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: but it was Agnew was like, nope, remember me. Yeah,

687
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: So I I can understand this one. It definitely didn't

688
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: work out in your favor, but the logic at least

689
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: makes no sense to me. Uh. This one from Logan

690
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 1: Simpkins playing Dawson Knox instead of t J. Hawkinson. Yeah,

691
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: I can understand this. I mean it looks bad and

692
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: retrospect because Hackinson had forty points. But but again, we

693
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: kept saying all week long the Bills and and Ravens

694
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: was gonna be really really high scoring t J. Hockinson had,

695
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: you know, last week was really good for him, but

696
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: before that he hadn't really been very good. So I can,

697
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 1: I can explain this one away too. Yeah, like I

698
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 1: would have played Hockinson, but I wouldn't if someone was like, no,

699
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go dalson Knocks, I wouldn't have been like

700
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 1: you're crazy or anything like that. No, so this this

701
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 1: made sense. Again, this is just one of the unfortunate

702
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: lineup decisions for you. Uh, and it may cost you,

703
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. Let's see the last one we got here,

704
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: This one from Nick saying, benched Penny, you weren't listening

705
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: to the show this week. I feel like we said

706
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 1: to start with shot Penny. I liked the shot Penny

707
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: this week. It's been Yeah, I was with you. I

708
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: actually co manage a team with two friends and we

709
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: had to decide with shot Penny or Jeff Wilson. And

710
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: I was saying Penny and they were saying Wilson. And

711
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 1: then yesterday, after his second touchdown, I just got a

712
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: text that said, my bad. Well, I mean, at least

713
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: here's the least Jeff Wilson plays tonight, and so you

714
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: can hope that maybe he puts up a decent number.

715
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: But you know, I was all on Rashad Penny this week.

716
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: Marcus hammered this one Plus not to mention the fact

717
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: that you know, started this show, you heard Florio say

718
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 1: stream everybody against the Lions. So hopefully if you have

719
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: anybody playing against the Lions this week, you won't bench them.

720
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 1: So there you go. All right, I was wking mistakes

721
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: presented by Snickers. We will take another break when we

722
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: come back. We're gonna play a little cap or no cap.

723
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: We have hats here and we're gonna either put them

724
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: on or not put them on. We're gonna try to

725
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: be hip like the kids out there, So stay tuned

726
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 1: to watch us make ourselves look silly. That's next on

727
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy Football Show. NFL Plus is the league's

735
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: anything here called cap or no cap, which is what

736
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 1: the kids are saying nowadays on the Twitter machine. Basically,

737
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 1: I'm going to read a statement and we're going to

738
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 1: decide whether that's cap like it's a lie, it's not

739
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 1: gonna be true, or no cap like it's a thing

740
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 1: that really is going to happen and we should all

741
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 1: get on board with it. So I got five different

742
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,399
Speaker 1: statements here. We will go through these pretty quickly. Here.

743
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: First one, Jared Goff is now a QB one for

744
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: the rest of the season, cap or no cap, No cap.

745
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: I'm not putting the hat on. I think he's like

746
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: I have him ranked as the top twelve quarterback for

747
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: this week, even in what looks like a tough matchup

748
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 1: on paper. There it's what we said earlier. It's just

749
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 1: the perfect recipe for fantasy success. And then he could

750
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: even get Jamison Williams back, which would only take him

751
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 1: to the next level. It's weird. I'm gonna say no

752
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 1: cap myself, not putting the cap on. Uh never would

753
00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: have thought this coming into the year, but you know,

754
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,439
Speaker 1: and he did this on Sunday with no Alman Ross

755
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: st Brown, no DeAndre Swift. They still went out and

756
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 1: put up forty five points. Golf still slinging it. There

757
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 1: was a QB one heading into Monday night. So, uh,

758
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: this seems like it is for real. So while I'm

759
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 1: on board with that, over to Pittsburgh, Nagy Harris, who

760
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:20,439
Speaker 1: has been disappointing so far, is now an RB two. Yeah,

761
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,759
Speaker 1: I'm for those listening, I'm now putting the cap on

762
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: his cap because he is clearly I still think in

763
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: RB one. I'm not ready to downgrade him. I know

764
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 1: yesterday he lost the two rushing touchdowns to Kenny Pickett.

765
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 1: If those goal on carries go to Naji Harris, where

766
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: we're talking about him very very differently right now, I

767
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,880
Speaker 1: I am with you. I'm going to say cap. I'm

768
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: gonna put the cap here on the front of my skull. Yeah.

769
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: The usage rates this looks weird. Okay, there we go. Um,

770
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 1: the usage rates are just too high for Naji Harris

771
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: and there's nobody else in that backfield. It's not like

772
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: it's not a Kansas City thing right where you've got

773
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: other guys coming in to take snaps. This is a

774
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: Nagy Harris backfield. Eventually the touchdowns will come. I think

775
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 1: the targets will be there as well, So I think

776
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,239
Speaker 1: he still has RB one upside. Okay, let's stay though

777
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh we talked about the quarterback change there it

778
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: was not looking great with Mitch Dubinsky. Now it's Kenny Pickett,

779
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 1: but Deonte Johnson not in the top twenty five AM

780
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: one wide receivers. So Deonte Johnson is now a wide

781
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,879
Speaker 1: receiver three cap or no cap breaking out the cap

782
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: again for the Pittsburgh Steelers, they are Deonta Johnson is

783
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: not a wide receiver. Three. I can't really get this

784
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 1: to stay like you could, but but I know yesterday

785
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: four targets to catches eleven yards. Bad game, like his

786
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: worst game of the year. But before that he had

787
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: double digit targets in every single game this year. I

788
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: still think he's gonna be the focal point of their

789
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 1: passing game. And even more so, I think Canny pick it.

790
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: While there's some unknown there, I think he raises the

791
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: ceiling because Mitch Drubisky just ate it. I will say

792
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,759
Speaker 1: it is also cap put the cap back on. Uh.

793
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 1: He's he's going to get the targets, as you mentioned.

794
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: And I think with Kenny Pickett, I think the upside

795
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 1: is maybe there's downfield targets as well. Um you know,

796
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 1: it may be ugly. It may be frustrating at times,

797
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,439
Speaker 1: but I said at the start of the show, he's

798
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,760
Speaker 1: the one stealer that I think you can feel okay

799
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: starting next week while everybody else you're sort of taking

800
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 1: a weight and sea attitude on. Because Deonte Johnson is

801
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 1: by far the number one wide out there. I think

802
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: he's a wide receiver too. I don't think it's a

803
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 1: receiver three. Uh. We sort of talked about DK Metcalf

804
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 1: and his gastro intestinal issues, but in terms of him

805
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,360
Speaker 1: on the field and Tyler Lockett as well, it's safe

806
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,959
Speaker 1: to start both Seahawks wide receivers every single week, cap

807
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: or no cap for the time being. I think that's

808
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: no cap, like and it's just the fact of how

809
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: funneled the volume is for these guys. Like again, even

810
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: when one Seattle is throwing more than I anticipated they would,

811
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: they've been throwing well above league average rate. And then

812
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,720
Speaker 1: when they do throw like like, he's looking for Lockett

813
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 1: and for d K and that's what we want. That

814
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 1: is what we want. I am not so sold. I'm

815
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: gonna say it's cap. I'm gonna put the cap on

816
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: here real quick. I think I think both both of

817
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: these guys are in play. But I think every week,

818
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be hard. I think there's gonna

819
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: be d k weeks, there will be Tyler Lockett weeks.

820
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: So I don't know that I feel confident every single week.

821
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,439
Speaker 1: But because it could be one or the other any

822
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 1: given week, I think you're in a situation where you're

823
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: starting probably either of them. Like if you have Locket,

824
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,720
Speaker 1: you're starting Locket. If you have metcalf, you're starting metcalf Um.

825
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: But just know that there could be weeks where it's

826
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 1: just one or the other, not necessarily both. So I'm

827
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: gonna call CAP on that one, Okay, Tyler Conklin. Of

828
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 1: all these surprise tight ends in the NFL and Fantasy football,

829
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 1: Tyler Conklin might be surpris ei ist. Uh. He's a

830
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: top five tight end right now heading into Monday Night Football.

831
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 1: So Tyler Conklin will be a tight end one for

832
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 1: the rest of the season. Cap or no cap, I'm

833
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 1: gonna say cap, But this one, I think it's very close.

834
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: Like this is because of the position, because he plays

835
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: tight end, and because anyone who has a pulse could

836
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,359
Speaker 1: become a tight end one there. But the reason I'm

837
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 1: saying cap to that is because as Corey Davis is

838
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: still being heavily involved there, then there's a lot more

839
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: and Garrett Wilson, plus they already loved throwing the ball

840
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 1: to briefe Breese Hall at some point that there's only

841
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: so many targets to go around. I'm gonna say no, Cap.

842
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: But I'm sort of like, I feel like we're sort

843
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: of kind of in the same place, right We're we're

844
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 1: we're in the same we're in the same section, just

845
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: gotta sit in a couple of seats from one another.

846
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say no CAP on this one because of

847
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 1: what you mentioned. Being a tightened one doesn't really take

848
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: a lot. And even if he doesn't have big games

849
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: every week, if he's consistently giving you say, four or

850
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: five catches for like fifty or sixty yards, you sprinkle

851
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 1: in the occasional touchdown over the course of the season,

852
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: that could be enough to finish as a tight end one.

853
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: So I don't know that this is necessarily a huge

854
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: praise a huge defense of Tyler Conklin as much as

855
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,839
Speaker 1: it is an accusation about the tight end position as

856
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 1: a whole. But I think he squeaks in there. It's

857
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: a tight end one. Plus, the Jets have not had

858
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 1: a relevant fantasy tight end like in my lifetime. I

859
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 1: can't think of one ever. And and the funny thing is,

860
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 1: like c. J Usama was brought in to be that guy.

861
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 1: Here we are Tyler Conkland, which Tyler Conklind was that

862
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,720
Speaker 1: guy sort of in Minnesota last year when Irv Smith

863
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: got hurt and he stepped in and played really well.

864
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 1: So there you go, all right, So that was Caper

865
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: no cap again. You may see something similar on Fantasy Live.

866
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 1: Just know that we didn't talk about this beforehand. It

867
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,839
Speaker 1: just was a weird coincidence that they both happened. Let's

868
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,840
Speaker 1: look at some of the top of waiver wire targets

869
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 1: four the week, Floria. I'll take us through your list.

870
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: Gino Smith, who bawled out there. Jared Goff is the

871
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 1: top quarterback ad this week. I would say Ryan Tannehill

872
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: is very much so in play in a good match

873
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 1: up against Washington. Would add Teddy Bridge order because we

874
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,359
Speaker 1: learned that two of will not play in Week five,

875
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 1: and then Kenny Pickett as more of a long term

876
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 1: flyer at the running back position. Guys with injury and

877
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,760
Speaker 1: the heam Hanes, Mike Boone, Tyler l Gre Caleb Huntley

878
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: all going to get more work with the starter hurt

879
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: Eno Benjamin looks like he's in play there. Rashad White

880
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: another name I would add to that running back group

881
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 1: as well. Uh, and then looking at some receivers and

882
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 1: tight ends, Corey Davis who continues to get volume. DeVante

883
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: Parker looks like a playmaker there. Josh Reynolds just if

884
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: the other guys stay banged up. And speaking of banged up,

885
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 1: the Bills lost both of their slot receivers yesterday, so

886
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: Khalil Shakure is in play there. Donovan People's Jones had

887
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: nine targets. Jamal Agnew stepped up with all the other

888
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: Jags receivers being banged up, and then tight end is

889
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: pretty gross. But Tayson Hill and Moiley Coxa, they both

890
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: did a little something this week. Yeah. By the way,

891
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 1: if you want more waiver Wire analysis, check out Matt

892
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 1: Okatta's column. He writes that every week you can find

893
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,759
Speaker 1: that at NFL dot com slash waiver Wire. But let's

894
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: talk about some names on this Let's we talked a

895
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 1: little bit about Mike Boone's we don't have to get

896
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:42,400
Speaker 1: deep into it. But again, I think a big opportunity

897
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 1: is coming from Mike Boone. Yes, I don't think he

898
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: completely replaces Javontay Williams, but if you lost Javonta, Melvin

899
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: Gordon is not going to be on your waiver wire.

900
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 1: I can guarantee you that. So this this seems like

901
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: the easy move here. The other running backs that we

902
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,959
Speaker 1: like are short term ends, like while you could play

903
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: these guys for the next couple of weeks while the

904
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,359
Speaker 1: stars out. Mike Boone, though, is a long term ad

905
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 1: because Javonty has done for the years. So he you're

906
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,320
Speaker 1: picking him up, You're gonna be have to be very aggressive,

907
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: I think to get him this. I think if you

908
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 1: play in a league with FAB, you're probably going to

909
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 1: have to spend most, if not all, of your FAB

910
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,760
Speaker 1: to make sure you lock in Mike Boone. Tyler Algier

911
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: saw a lot of snaps, had a pretty good day

912
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: for the Falcons. I mentioned earlier in the show Cordarold

913
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 1: Patterson on injured reserve, which means he's gonna be out

914
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 1: for four weeks. I know Algier was sort of a

915
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 1: Dynasty favorite, you know, keeper league favorite, and at least

916
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 1: in the short term, it looks like we're gonna get

917
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 1: the opportunity to see what he can do. Albeit, you know,

918
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 1: we just sat here and kind of dumped on the

919
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 1: Falcons offense. So I don't know, I don't know how

920
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: excide do we feel about it, about the opportunity is

921
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 1: definitely there. Yeah, he played forty percent of the snaps.

922
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: He's their most explosive option there and he was He's

923
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: the one that I would add first. But Caleb Huntly

924
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 1: did also have ten carriers and he's the one that

925
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: got used near the goal line. So I think we're

926
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: gonna see a committee or a split between those two.

927
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: But Algier would be the side that I would prefer.

928
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,800
Speaker 1: Josh Reynolds was on the list there at wide receivers

929
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 1: because I've been saying for years that you always want

930
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: to get a piece of that Lions offense because that's

931
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: just how it works. But look, as long as I'm

932
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: on Ross st. Brown is banged up, as long as

933
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,160
Speaker 1: d J. Chark is banged up, this isn't just a hey,

934
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 1: somebody's got to catch the ball. He actually was a

935
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,919
Speaker 1: big part of what the Lions did on Sunday. Yeah,

936
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 1: he was eight targets. You see there, he scored a

937
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,919
Speaker 1: touchdown and the Patriots defense they get the Patriots next week.

938
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: They are not nearly as scary as they've been in

939
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: years past. In fact, they're in the top ten and

940
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: fantasy points allowed through the airs. So uh, it's someone's

941
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:32,439
Speaker 1: got to catch the ball there if a Monron DJ

942
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 1: charker out again, so I would expect Josh Reynolds to

943
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: step up if given the opportunity. We weren't sure about

944
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: the Packers wide receivers, but you know, Romeo Dobbs had

945
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 1: a good game, Christian Watson scored a rushing touchdown, a

946
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 1: want Lazard was involved, so maybe that is a play

947
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 1: if you you need some wide receivers to start. And

948
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill is back in our lives. He scored a

949
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,879
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown on Sunday and you mentioned tight end being

950
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 1: kind of gross, So I guess we've reached the Taysom

951
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,200
Speaker 1: Hill part of the program now. Yeah, I think the

952
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 1: hope if you have Taysom Hill is, uh, he'sn't played

953
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 1: for me. If Alvin Cambara misses more time, and if

954
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston misses more time, because then we're just gonna

955
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,959
Speaker 1: get more and more Taysome Hill packages like they didn't

956
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 1: throw him the ball at all. If he doesn't score

957
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 1: that rushing touchdown, you're you're left wanting a whole lot more.

958
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,720
Speaker 1: But when we're talking about tight ends again, a touchdown

959
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 1: is enough to to be to make you have a

960
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 1: very good day at that It gets you in the

961
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 1: at least in spitting distance of tighten one if you

962
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: can score a touchdown. So, Taysom Hill, welcome back. I

963
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 1: want to wrap up the show with some Madden movers,

964
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: the chance for us to kind of give some love

965
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 1: to guys we didn't get otherwise in the show and

966
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:38,760
Speaker 1: tell the folks over e A maybe these folks deserve

967
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 1: a bit of a boost when it comes to their

968
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: their rankings on the Madden Game. So for you, who

969
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: is a guy from Sunday that you think deserves a

970
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: Madden ratings boost? Damian Pierce, Like, I know rookies get

971
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: rated low at the start of their careers, but this

972
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,399
Speaker 1: guy's a seventies seven overall. I'm gonna need to see

973
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: his ratings start with at least in eight next week

974
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 1: because sixty percent of the snaps fourteen carries. No one

975
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 1: else on Houston had a carry, six targets that was

976
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 1: more than Rex Burkehead had a hundred and thirty eight

977
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 1: yards a touchdown. He's now scored over eighteen Fantasy points

978
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: in two straight games. I'm very excited about him moving forward,

979
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 1: very excited about Damian Pierce. I'm also excited about Gerald

980
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: every And this is a guy that I did not

981
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: really think was gonna have a good game coming into

982
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: it against the Houston Texans with no Keenan Allen, but

983
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,799
Speaker 1: again went and balled out. He's having a great start

984
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 1: to his season. He's at a seventy eight overall, and

985
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:29,879
Speaker 1: maybe he creeps a little bit closer, maybe he doesn't

986
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: get the eighty. Let's bump up to a seventy nine,

987
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 1: shall we. You see that the five catches, sixty one

988
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown very much a part of what

989
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 1: the charges are doing throwing the football. And we always

990
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: thought he had this potential, but you know, for years

991
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: he was playing alongside Tyler Higbee and they were sort

992
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 1: of cannibalizing each other. Now he's sort of on his

993
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 1: own and he's he's playing well, and I think deserves

994
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 1: a little bit of a bump. Uh, you got another

995
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 1: rookie on your list here. Yeah, I'm taking the easy

996
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: way out, but Romeo Dobbs here definitely needs to be

997
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 1: hired than a seventy two overall. I understand why he's

998
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 1: rated as that was a fourth round pick in YadA, YadA, YadA.

999
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 1: Eight targets, they're tied for the team high five catches,

1000
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,320
Speaker 1: forty seven yards and a touchdown. And if that doesn't

1001
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 1: impress you enough, he almost had a monster day. There

1002
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 1: was a long ball touchdown that would have been the

1003
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 1: game winning catch from Aaron Rodgers that he had in

1004
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 1: his hands, fell when he dropped out when he hit

1005
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 1: the ground getting tackled. But if he holds onto that,

1006
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 1: forget about it, and I did before our eyes, he's

1007
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: clearly winning over and Rodgers absolutely turning into the wide

1008
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,399
Speaker 1: receiver one there in green band. Yeah, that catch would

1009
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:31,240
Speaker 1: have been amazing. Even Dez Bryant caught a tweeted about

1010
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 1: he caught it. Whatever, I'll finish up with a rookie

1011
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,480
Speaker 1: of my own. It's gonna be George Pickens who finally

1012
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,719
Speaker 1: came to life, and it was the thing Florio called

1013
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,680
Speaker 1: during the week six catches a hundred and two yards

1014
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: in the loss to the Jets. He's seventy five overall.

1015
00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,879
Speaker 1: His catch for rating is eighty five. Maybe we can

1016
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: bump that up a little bit too, because he already

1017
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 1: has maybe the greatest catch of the year, that one

1018
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 1: hander he had a couple of weeks ago, so let's

1019
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,319
Speaker 1: give him a bump. This is a guy that we're

1020
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 1: not for st ball field issues. Probably would have been

1021
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,439
Speaker 1: the first wide receiver or one of the first wide

1022
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 1: receivers taken in the NFL draft and really showing off

1023
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 1: in the last couple of weeks for the Steelers. So

1024
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 1: you go. Those are our Madden Movers for the week.

1025
