Speaker 1: kind of like the end of summer. You know, we

Speaker 1: a great holiday weekend firing up the grills for maybe
Speaker 1: the last time. But I got my man Kurts Bavona,
Speaker 1: the bounty Hunter with me on the ones and tunes.
Speaker 1: Sweat got a great show for you. Okay. The preseason
Speaker 1: ended yesterday, you know, so I'm gonna give you some
Speaker 1: of my biggest takeaways from the entire preseason. We have
Speaker 1: been talking about tight ends for the last couple of days,
Speaker 1: so I've got my tight end fo gazes. Okay, a
Speaker 1: couple of guys in the top five of tight ends
Speaker 1: that I think you need to avoid. I told you
Speaker 1: some diamonds in the rough at that position earlier in
Speaker 1: the week. Guys that I like like Austin Hooper, Guys
Speaker 1: that I like like Hunter Henry. Guys even deeper that
Speaker 1: I like like Austin Seferian Jenkins and George Kittle. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm giving you the inverse right now tonight. It is
Speaker 1: about who you need to avoid at the tight end position.
Speaker 1: I'm also gonna give you a couple of defenses, okay,
Speaker 1: because listen, I don't think you need to draft defense
Speaker 1: until your second to last or the last pick overall.
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna give you some defenses that are outside
Speaker 1: of the top ten as far as rankings go, that
Speaker 1: I think could be valuable streaming options and interesting defenses
Speaker 1: to hold for real. Chunks of the season, so I
Speaker 1: think that is very important. What I'm also going to
Speaker 1: do as we put the fun in functional sports Radio,
Speaker 1: I am gonna recap a couple of shows that have
Speaker 1: been going on. One on HBO is Hard Knocks as
Speaker 1: they profile the Tampa Bay Bucks. There's also been the
Speaker 1: debut of another show on Facebook and it is called
Speaker 1: Ball in the Family, following LaVar, Lonzo, Lamello and LiAngelo
Speaker 1: and now even the sixteen year old is getting paid
Speaker 1: branding a new shoe. We will get into that a
Speaker 1: little bit later on, and you know, of course, we

Speaker 1: eight seven nine. We also got a pull question up.
Speaker 1: Who do you think will be the tight end? Fo
Speaker 1: Gazey the tight end you think we need to forget about?
Speaker 1: My options are Greg Olsen, Jordan read the usually injured

Speaker 1: mouth team that has some new weapons around it. We'll
Speaker 1: get into these tight ends, We'll get into your calls,

Speaker 1: It's your boy, Speeds, the spitting statustician, holding you down,
Speaker 1: dropping stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle right here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We've been talking about
Speaker 1: tight ends over the last couple of days. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: give you my tight end gazzes. The guys you need
Speaker 1: to forget about. We're gonna give you some news and notes. Listen.
Speaker 1: It's around cut down day here in the NFL. There's
Speaker 1: some trades that have happened. There's some surprise cuts. We're
Speaker 1: gonna get into all of those and the fantasy impacts.
Speaker 1: But the phone lines are also open right now at
Speaker 1: eight four four eight four three eight seven nine. And
Speaker 1: it sounds like we got a couple of callers a Bovona.
Speaker 1: The first one is Joe in Long Island. He's got
Speaker 1: a question about Mr Murray. Let's bring him onto the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle. What's going on? Man? And what's going on?
Speaker 1: I got, I got offered. I got Keevin Coleman and
Speaker 1: Mike Thomas. But the Marco Murray and Eric Decker I
Speaker 1: had Murray and Decker. Listen. Michael Thomas is far superior
Speaker 1: to Eric Decker. Okay, so that is very interesting. And
Speaker 1: you said it was Tevin Coleman was the other back Keevin,
Speaker 1: I've been getting Tevin Coleman. I'd be given up to
Speaker 1: Marco Murray. Yeah, listen, I gotta tell you I think
Speaker 1: the gap of Michael Thomas down to Eric Decker is
Speaker 1: bigger then the gap of Debarco Murray to Tevin Coleman.
Speaker 1: So to me, it sounds like the Tevin Coleman and
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas side of that deal wins out. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you also heard there is news today that
Speaker 1: Ted Ginn Jr. Another wide excuse me that um Willie
Speaker 1: sneed another wide receiver on the Saints, is gonna be
Speaker 1: suspended for the first three games. That could even be
Speaker 1: more for Michael Thomas. I don't know, and thank you
Speaker 1: for the call, man. I don't know. You know if
Speaker 1: you trade away DeMarco Murray as what presumably was your
Speaker 1: RB one, where that leaves you in the running back
Speaker 1: I don't know the rest of your roster, and we
Speaker 1: don't have time to get into every single player, but
Speaker 1: I will tell you I believe the gap between DeMarco
Speaker 1: Murray and Tevin Coleman is not as big as the
Speaker 1: gap between Michael Thomas and Eric Decker. So I like
Speaker 1: the Michael Thomas and Tevin Coleman side of that deal.
Speaker 1: We got another caller. It looks like we got uh
Speaker 1: who is this cliff In Boston talking about the tight ends.
Speaker 1: We've been talking about the tight ends in terms of
Speaker 1: diamonds a couple of days earlier. This week, we're gonna
Speaker 1: get into food gay is a little bit as well.
Speaker 1: Let's get this tight end question from Cliff in Boston. Hey, Cliff,
Speaker 1: you're dropping stats over beats with the spitting statistician. You're
Speaker 1: on the fantasy freestyle. What's up? What's going on? Man? Hey,
Speaker 1: I got a big question for you. Originally I was
Speaker 1: gonna ask about, you know, the tight end position. But
Speaker 1: what I really wanted to ask you, I'm thinking six
Speaker 1: right now. In one of my drafts coming up on Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Who would you say is an ideal pick at that
Speaker 1: sixth spot? Okay? Sure, at the sixth spot. Okay, here's
Speaker 1: the thing in my mind. And and and to be honest, Uh, Clifford,
Speaker 1: the PPR or not of this league matters, Okay, because
Speaker 1: here's my thing. It's six. You're not gonna get one
Speaker 1: of the complete true elite studs at running back. You're
Speaker 1: not gonna get David Johnson. You're not gonna get Levan Bell.
Speaker 1: After that, though, there are a couple of locked and
Speaker 1: loaded elite wide receivers that I think you can take
Speaker 1: right Antonio Brown on, Julio Jones, Odell Beckham or Mike Evans.
Speaker 1: Those are my top four kind of wide receivers. You've
Speaker 1: got Levy on Bell and David Johnson. When you're sitting
Speaker 1: at six. To me, whichever one of those six is
Speaker 1: still available, that's where I'm going. And let me tell you,
Speaker 1: I didn't know the format of your league. If it
Speaker 1: is a PPR league, I am that much more happy
Speaker 1: to get my wide receiver right away because I can
Speaker 1: find some pass catching backs later on, some third down backs,
Speaker 1: some pass catching backs that in a PPR format I'd
Speaker 1: be very happy about. Okay, if it's standard, it's a
Speaker 1: little bit different, but I think you're gonna wind up
Speaker 1: with one of these elite wide receivers. I think it's
Speaker 1: gonna be wind up being like Odell Beckham or Mike Evans.
Speaker 1: So thank you for the call. Again. That was Cliff
Speaker 1: in Boston. Hey, it sounds uh we got another call.
Speaker 1: It sounds like we got Blake in Dallas. He wants
Speaker 1: to know about the Saints backfield and specifically mark ingram
Speaker 1: Uh Blake in Dallas. Your dry up and stats over beach,
Speaker 1: which your boys speeds and spitting statistician on the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: What's going on, Blake? Okay, so um, I'm wondering who
Speaker 1: started flex week one, and I've got a Kiss Rogers
Speaker 1: marked Ingram, Joe Mixon, and Jonathan Stewart. Okay, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: If you have Jack Quiz Rogers on your roster, right,
Speaker 1: you have him pretty much for the first three weeks
Speaker 1: when you think Doug Martin is going to be suspended, right,
Speaker 1: so in the first three weeks, my man pop Quiz
Speaker 1: Jocquiz Rogers. He is going to be the lead dog
Speaker 1: for Tampa. If you went and got him, it's because
Speaker 1: you wanted to play him for the first three weeks
Speaker 1: of the season. I know they're playing Miami. They've got
Speaker 1: in Dominican Sioux in the middle of that line, but
Speaker 1: they like Jock Quiz Rogers. I think some of the
Speaker 1: other guys you mentioned, guys like Jonathan Stewart. I want
Speaker 1: to wait and see how the Panthers are gonna play this.
Speaker 1: Are they gonna give Christian McCaffrey a lot of looks
Speaker 1: or not? You mentioned Joe Mixon. You know that's a
Speaker 1: crowded backfield as well, with guys like you know, Jeremy
Speaker 1: Hill and Gio Bernard. Because Doug Martin is serving that suspension,
Speaker 1: I think Pop Quiz Jocquins Rodgers in that Battle of
Speaker 1: Florida against the Miami Dolphins could be an interesting start,
Speaker 1: especially in weeks one through three when Doug Martin is
Speaker 1: on the sidelines. All right, Chris, it looks like those
Speaker 1: are all the callers for now, So let me keep
Speaker 1: it moving here on the cipher in the fantasy freestyle
Speaker 1: and give him some news and notes. Because listen, this
Speaker 1: is cut down day. There's been some trades. Let's get
Speaker 1: into it. First of all, Bengals wide receiver John Ross,
Speaker 1: he of the four point two to forty time at
Speaker 1: the combine, He's gonna be out a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: with a knee injury. Okay, I think this means even
Speaker 1: more opportunity, even more focused for a J. Green in
Speaker 1: that offense. When we start talking DFS next week, I
Speaker 1: like a J. Green in my DFS line up even
Speaker 1: more share for him. With John Ross out, levy On
Speaker 1: Bell has reported to Pittsburgh Steelers camp. He's got a
Speaker 1: one year, twelve million dollar deal as predicted, he said
Speaker 1: he was gonna come in right when he did on
Speaker 1: September first. He is my number one overall pick in
Speaker 1: all of fantasy football this year. I think he is
Speaker 1: a true stud. I would even pick him over David Johnson. Okay,
Speaker 1: you may have heard earlier in the week that Matt
Speaker 1: Forte is on the trade block for the New York Jets.
Speaker 1: He's going ahead and saying that the rumors of his
Speaker 1: trade are quote unquote fake news. He says that he's
Speaker 1: spoken to the g M Mike mccagnet that they are
Speaker 1: not going to trade him. I'm gonna tell you the truth.
Speaker 1: It's probably because they can't find a trade partner for
Speaker 1: for him, because he's got a four million dollar contract.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if he winds up being a
Speaker 1: cut casualty at the very end, as rosslers go from
Speaker 1: nine d all the way down to fifty three. Is
Speaker 1: this weekend to clear a room and to continue the
Speaker 1: tanking process for the New York Jets, they have traded
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson to the Seattle Seahawks,
Speaker 1: making the Seattle defense even that much more scary. With
Speaker 1: the truth, stud Indians here yere. Now they're getting Mr
Speaker 1: Curse back. Remember the Jets need some hope help at
Speaker 1: wide out. They're also getting a second round pick to
Speaker 1: help with their tanking efforts. The forty Niners, in a
Speaker 1: surprise cut and cut down day, they cut quarterback Matt Barkley. Okay,
Speaker 1: they're gonna be going with the rookie C. J. Bethard
Speaker 1: instead as the backup to Brian Hoyer. Listen, I think
Speaker 1: Matt Barkley is viable. He might pick on latch On
Speaker 1: somewhere soon. Remember, in Indianapolis, we don't know how long
Speaker 1: they're gonna be going with Scott Tolzine. In Baltimore, they
Speaker 1: don't know about Joe Flacco's back. And in Jacksonville, remember
Speaker 1: there is still boordal Service, who is listed at the
Speaker 1: top of the depth chart. You may have heard me
Speaker 1: say it earlier in the show. Saints wide receiver Willie Snead,
Speaker 1: who is currently wide receiver thirty two a legitimate wide
Speaker 1: three on the Saints with Drew Brees. He's gonna be
Speaker 1: suspended for the first three games of the season because
Speaker 1: of a d u I that he got in the
Speaker 1: off season. I think this makes Ted Finn Jr. Really,
Speaker 1: Ted Ginje your viable. Maybe in DFS in Week one,
Speaker 1: remember a Monday Night they go up with Adrian Peterson
Speaker 1: to take on his former team, the Minnesota Vikings. That
Speaker 1: is the first game of a double header on Monday
Speaker 1: Night football. Martavis Bryant has been reinstated by the NFL. Listen,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be big Ben lev Bell, Martavis Bryant and
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. That combination has only been together for eleven
Speaker 1: times in their careers. I think if they all play
Speaker 1: sixteen games this year, watch out for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1: They might have the best offense in all of football.
Speaker 1: And there are reports I told you this. I told
Speaker 1: you guys. There are reports that the Cleveland Browns have
Speaker 1: cut brock Osweiler. He once was the seventy two million
Speaker 1: dollar noos around the Houston Texans. They made that in
Speaker 1: like a salary dump kind of trade in the off season,
Speaker 1: and they have in fact cut brock Osweiler. Listen, there's
Speaker 1: still like between Matt Barkley now brock Osweiler. They're still
Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick out there. Teams like the Colts, like the Jaguars,
Speaker 1: like the Ravens. They may be in the market for
Speaker 1: another quarterback. You know. In the preseason, it was also
Speaker 1: interesting to see some of these rookie quarterbacks. You know,
Speaker 1: Deshaun Kaiser is gonna start for Cleveland. You know about
Speaker 1: Trebinsky and Watson who flashed early on. But keep an
Speaker 1: eye on these two. Patty Mahomes in Kansas City, I
Speaker 1: don't know if he's gonna be the backup all year.
Speaker 1: You know, Alex Smith, we know what he can do.
Speaker 1: Remember how he got, you know, surpassed by Colin Kaepernick
Speaker 1: back a few few years ago. I wouldn't be surprised
Speaker 1: if the Kansas City Chiefs do the same thing with
Speaker 1: Patty Mahomes. He is a great dynasty stach. Same could
Speaker 1: be said for Nate Peterman in Buffalo. Okay, they don't
Speaker 1: like Tyrod Taylor. Tyrod Taylor is still in the concussion protocol.
Speaker 1: Keep an eye on Peterman in Buffalo. But I gotta
Speaker 1: tell you one team that I thought one the preseason.
Speaker 1: I was high on them when I did my previews.
Speaker 1: The Philadelphia Eagles looked really good in preseason. Lane Johnson
Speaker 1: back on that offensive line, Carson Wentz three touchdowns, no interceptions,
Speaker 1: alson Jeffrey healthy, that defense, getting Ronald Darby, the first
Speaker 1: draft pick, Derek Barnett looking good. I like the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 1: They were my diamond in the rough call and nothing
Speaker 1: this preseason changes my mind. When we come back here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Freestyle, we go into tight end for Gaze.
Speaker 1: He's the tight end you need to forget about. Right
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Freestyle. Come on back speeds and
Speaker 1: spitting statistician Hunter, Henry Sterling, Shepherd, Michael Thomas. These three
Speaker 1: NFL softwores are not due to slump. They're due to
Speaker 1: break out. Just like the Fantasist Sports Radio Network e
Speaker 1: year two, the things are only getting better. Make sure
Speaker 1: listen live and dell o the app F and t
Speaker 1: s Y Radio. It's free and it's twenty four seven
Speaker 1: the best Fantasy sports on ten. He's on the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I'm mean boy.
Speaker 1: Dane Martinez Speeds the spitting statistician right here, holding you down,
Speaker 1: dropping stats over beats. That is Chrits Bovona taking good
Speaker 1: care of you on the ones and twos, keeping it
Speaker 1: so hot, that Ruth sweat Steve, we got a little
Speaker 1: big l coming back after break Listen. It is the
Speaker 1: holiday weekend, the end of summer. A lot of people
Speaker 1: are getting hot and bothered, and you can by calling
Speaker 1: eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine.
Speaker 1: We gotta pull question up right now on Twitter. We
Speaker 1: want to ask you who do you think is your
Speaker 1: tight end? The fool getting easy, the tight end that
Speaker 1: you need to forget about. We got hundreds of votes already.
Speaker 1: The options I put out there for you are Greg Olsen,
Speaker 1: who's going at tight end three, Jordan Reed who's going
Speaker 1: as tight end four, and we've also got Delaney Walker
Speaker 1: who's going at tight end nine. We also got a
Speaker 1: couple of people that have commented about some other examples
Speaker 1: of some other nominations. We also got a caller on
Speaker 1: the line right now. It says like we've got John
Speaker 1: he wants to talk about some Detroit Lions and Jim
Speaker 1: Bob Cooder. I think Stafford is you know, it's it's interesting.
Speaker 1: A lot of people used to ask like is they
Speaker 1: is he an elite quarterback or not? Right? And I
Speaker 1: think that's a false premise. No, he's not one of
Speaker 1: the top five quarterbacks in the NFL. But is he
Speaker 1: worth getting paid. I think he is. I think any
Speaker 1: of the top fifteen or top half quarterbacks in the
Speaker 1: NFL are worth it because what is the alternative. This
Speaker 1: guy is entering his age twenty nine season. They're putting
Speaker 1: weapons around him. And for the year and a half
Speaker 1: that hey, he has been healthy and with my man
Speaker 1: Jim Bob Cooder as his offensive coordinator, he has shown
Speaker 1: that he has been very strong. He was an m
Speaker 1: VP candidate for the first few weeks of the season
Speaker 1: last year before the thumb injuries. So I think that
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford is on the way up. As though his
Speaker 1: name was French Montana. I like Stafford, and I think
Speaker 1: he deserves the kind of contract, not because he's an
Speaker 1: elite quarterback, but it's all timing when your contract comes
Speaker 1: up in the NFL, if you are a quarterback who
Speaker 1: is not a problem on your team, I mean, clearly,
Speaker 1: he's got nothing better to do. Let's keep it moving though.
Speaker 1: You know what is important? That are the tight end
Speaker 1: fool gazes that I'm about to give you, Because if
Speaker 1: you're a serious fantasy player, you need to worry about
Speaker 1: what is going on in fantasy at the tight end position.
Speaker 1: There are a couple of tight ends that are real
Speaker 1: high in the rankings right now. I'm talking tight ends
Speaker 1: three and four that I actually think are fool gazy.
Speaker 1: Let me give you the first one. Okay, Jordan Reed
Speaker 1: is going right now as tight end four. He's going
Speaker 1: as number fifty overall. That's basically like a fifth round
Speaker 1: draft pick. If I'm going to spend on a tight
Speaker 1: end in the fifth round, I am not gonna go
Speaker 1: with someone that is an injury risk. Jordan Read is
Speaker 1: pretty much the analogy. It's like, it's pretty much the
Speaker 1: the Andrew Luck of tight ends. Okay, Um, if I'm
Speaker 1: gonna spend for a tight end, I'm gonna get something
Speaker 1: that's more stable. I don't want to invest in a
Speaker 1: tight end at that level and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: have him be doubtful every week, have him have an
Speaker 1: ankle injury, a foot thing to worry about, being competing
Speaker 1: with Vernon Davis. I listen, this guy is played in
Speaker 1: twelve games, eleven games, nine games. He is definitely injury prone.
Speaker 1: I think, similar to quarterback, there's so many other kind
Speaker 1: of options. I'll wait and get myself, Hunter, Henry, I'll
Speaker 1: wait and get myself Eric Ebron, who liked the caller
Speaker 1: and Detroit mentioned he should know about Eric Ebron. Right,
Speaker 1: I'd rather Eric Ebron than a guy like Jordan Reid.
Speaker 1: So to me, Jordan Reed is not worth the price.
Speaker 1: So to me, he is a fantasy full gaze. Forget
Speaker 1: about him. All right, there's another tight end I want
Speaker 1: to give you even higher in the rankings. I'm talking
Speaker 1: Greg Olsen. Greg Olsen right now is going as tight
Speaker 1: and in three he's going as number forty eight overall.
Speaker 1: That's the back end of the fourth round in twelve
Speaker 1: team drafts. I think Greg Olsen this year is a
Speaker 1: fool gazy Okay, I love Greg Olsen. I think Greg
Speaker 1: Olsen has been solid production for a long time. Here's
Speaker 1: the thing. The Carolina Panthers are changing their offense this year. Okay.
Speaker 1: They are trying to get the ball out of Cam
Speaker 1: Newton's hands a little bit quicker, because, like I said,
Speaker 1: and like John and Detroit needs to know hashtag, all
Speaker 1: quarterbacks matter, even Cam Newton. So they are trying to
Speaker 1: protect him by getting the ball out a little bit quicker.
Speaker 1: That means no more five seven step drops to Greg
Speaker 1: Olsen chucking it. They're gonna try and hit you know,
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. They're gonna try and hit Curtis Samuel, They're
Speaker 1: gonna try and hit Benjamin on slant routes. Okay. I
Speaker 1: think that means that greg Old will not be like
Speaker 1: Cam's eyes focused on him. Also, greg Olsen is entering
Speaker 1: his age. I think thirty two season, this is not
Speaker 1: the place where people ascend. He was tight end to
Speaker 1: last year. Eighty catches over a thousand yards and he
Speaker 1: had a hundred and twenty nine targets, that second most
Speaker 1: in the NFL among tight ends. I think there's going
Speaker 1: to be regression there. That's why I think Greg Olsen
Speaker 1: at the back of the fourth round, beginning of the
Speaker 1: fifth round is not going to return that value. He
Speaker 1: is a tight end, all right. Here's the other one
Speaker 1: I want to talk about. I have him up in
Speaker 1: the poll and it is Delaney Walker. Delaney Walker is
Speaker 1: going as tight end nine right now. That is eighty overall.
Speaker 1: We're talking about in like the seventh round of your draft.
Speaker 1: And I don't think this is a good idea. Last year,
Speaker 1: Delaney Walker was Marcus Mariota's like security blanket, his comfort,
Speaker 1: his warm little blanket, as though he was lyingest, you know,
Speaker 1: and he had that little blue blanket with him all
Speaker 1: the time. But that is not the case anymore. Tennessee
Speaker 1: went out in the off season and signed Derek Decker.
Speaker 1: Tennessee went out in the off season and drafted Corey
Speaker 1: Davis with their number five overall pick. They are building
Speaker 1: other weapons for Delaney Walker. Delaney Walker had sixty five catches,
Speaker 1: eight hundred yards and seven touchdowns last season. I do
Speaker 1: not think he is a good bet to repeat that.
Speaker 1: Delaney Walker also getting a little long in the tooth
Speaker 1: going into his age eighty three season. Excuse me, not
Speaker 1: eighty three, his aged thirty three season, and I think
Speaker 1: with too many options right there, and remember they still
Speaker 1: like to be exotic smash mouth. I do not think
Speaker 1: Delaney Walker repeats his performance of the last year. He's
Speaker 1: going as tight end nine. I think there's other guys.
Speaker 1: Do not spend the draft capital in round seven on
Speaker 1: Delaney Walker. I got a couple of other tight ends
Speaker 1: that I want to give you that I think our
Speaker 1: fu gazzes this year, okay, but they kind of fit
Speaker 1: the same narrative. They fit the same narrative. So I
Speaker 1: want to tell you what it is that UM I
Speaker 1: think about when it comes to these okay tight end
Speaker 1: is a very hard position to learn as a rookie.
Speaker 1: You've heard me say this before if listen to the
Speaker 1: fantasy freestyle, and the reason is because they have to
Speaker 1: know all of the routes that a receiver and a
Speaker 1: pass catcher would run. They also have to know all
Speaker 1: the blocking schemes that an offensive lineman needs to know.
Speaker 1: So rookie tight ends do not do well. Generally speaking,
Speaker 1: Rookie tight ends don't really pop. I'm talking about Eric
Speaker 1: Ebron right now, it's your four, and I finally expect
Speaker 1: that jump rookie tight ends. I don't expect that to happen,
Speaker 1: especially on teams that this offseason went out and signed
Speaker 1: uh wide receivers that some could be called diva's. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about these wide receivers like Brandon Marshalls and John Jackson.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the tight ends. O J. Howard and
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram. Both of them were early round draft picks. O. J.
Speaker 1: Howard for the Tampa a Bucks, Evan Ingram out of
Speaker 1: Mississippi for the New York Giants. If you look at Ingram, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's a wide receiver, kind of a move tight end.
Speaker 1: He's gonna take a while to be on the field
Speaker 1: to remember that he has those blocking um responsibilities. And
Speaker 1: with Oldell Beckham, Brandon Marshall, Sterling Shepard, Shane Vereen in
Speaker 1: that passing game, I don't think Evan Ingram is really
Speaker 1: gonna return fantasy value this year. He may be decent
Speaker 1: to spread the opportunities or to spread coverage around in
Speaker 1: real football for the Giants, but not for fantasy. Same
Speaker 1: for O. J. Howard. In my opinion, you know you
Speaker 1: got Mike Evanson's, you got DeShawn Jackson, You've got another
Speaker 1: tight end in um Cameron break there, right, So I
Speaker 1: think there's too many mouths to feed there. And I
Speaker 1: don't think O. J. Howard is gonna know all the
Speaker 1: blocking schemes as well, are they gonna really support two
Speaker 1: tight ends there. So that's part of the reason why
Speaker 1: I think O. J. Howard and Evan Ingram are both
Speaker 1: full gazey. Forget about it, Hey, Bavona, it looks like
Speaker 1: we got one more caller out there, hoping someone that
Speaker 1: can understand that speeds of spitting statistician is Boiqua baby,
Speaker 1: Um it is Patrick and Dallas. He wants to talk
Speaker 1: about some running backs. Patrick and Dallas. If you're still there,
Speaker 1: you are on the Fantasy Freestyle dropping stats over beats
Speaker 1: with the Boigua speeds the spitting statistician. What's up? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to ask you who I should start
Speaker 1: at flex, Dalvin Cook or Frank Frank Gore. Okay, listen,
Speaker 1: here's the thing. I would go Dalvin Cook and here's why.
Speaker 1: Especially in week one, Dalvin Cook and the Vikings are
Speaker 1: up against the Saints. That is a bad defense. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I think Dalvin Cook is primed and ready to
Speaker 1: be a three down back for the Minnesota Vikings. I
Speaker 1: like them at home Monday Night against a bad defense
Speaker 1: in the New Orleans Saints. On the other side, you
Speaker 1: talk about Frank Gore. Frank Gore, especially week one they
Speaker 1: go out to Los Angeles to take on the Rams.
Speaker 1: I think the Rams are gonna be an improved defense
Speaker 1: with new defensive coordinator Wade Phillips, and also with the
Speaker 1: Colts in week one, there's no Andrew Look under center.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be Scott Tolzine. So these Rams are gonna
Speaker 1: be focused to uh stop Frank Gore and the running game.
Speaker 1: They're gonna try to force Scott Tolzine and the Indianapolis
Speaker 1: Colts to beat them through the passing game. I think
Speaker 1: the Rams are gonna load up to try to stop
Speaker 1: Frank Gore. And so for that reason, especially in Week one,
Speaker 1: I love me some Dalvin Cook as a flex option.
Speaker 1: I could see Dalvin Cook as an RB two option
Speaker 1: as well going up against that defense of the New
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints. Like I said right now, we gotta pull
Speaker 1: question up. Forty eight percent of you think Jordan Reed
Speaker 1: and his injury risk is a fantasy full gazey at
Speaker 1: the tight end position, say Greg Olsen, Say Delaney Walker.
Speaker 1: When we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you some other suggestions that you guys have, and
Speaker 1: we're gonna put the Fun and Functional Sports Radio a
Speaker 1: lot of stuff to talk about. Dan Martinez speeds a
Speaker 1: spitting statistician right here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the

Speaker 1: In Radio, and a pair are the buzzing on the
Speaker 1: YouTube live stream on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. A
Speaker 1: lot of people very excited about the holiday weekend, and
Speaker 1: a lot of people very excited to be part of
Speaker 1: my show. All right, let's keep it going that we
Speaker 1: got that pole question up right now. I told you
Speaker 1: some other people have options on tight end fool Gazes.
Speaker 1: One of them, Clayton trey Hand, who has been responding
Speaker 1: to a lot of these polls that we've been doing
Speaker 1: our diamonds and our ful gazes at Claymore's FFB on Twitter,
Speaker 1: says that Listen, Jack Doyle could be a fool gayzey okay.
Speaker 1: Lux injury does not help the matters there. I remember
Speaker 1: I've talked about how you need to fade t Y Hilton,
Speaker 1: you need to fade Dante Moncrief Jack Doyle just the same,
Speaker 1: also saying two years ago it was supposed to be
Speaker 1: Fleaner's year. Last year is supposed to be Allen's, this
Speaker 1: year is supposed to be Doyle's. Whoever goes into the
Speaker 1: year at Indianapolis thinking that they're gonna be, you know,
Speaker 1: Andrew Lux tight end, it doesn't always look right, So
Speaker 1: that way they could be a fool gaze at the
Speaker 1: tight end position. Fantasy Field Report on Twitter has also replied,
Speaker 1: and they're saying Cameron Bread Remember, listen, I actually think
Speaker 1: Cameron Brady is gonna hold off O. J. Howard at
Speaker 1: least in the beginning of the season as O J.
Speaker 1: Howard gets himself acclimated to the NFL game. The last
Speaker 1: one out here on Twitter, Brian five fifty at Gmail
Speaker 1: at Dane Golf nineteen sixty on Twitter says what about
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham. I gotta tell you, I think Jimmy Graham
Speaker 1: is actually primed to have a bounce back kind of
Speaker 1: rebreak out. Remember, he's now another year removed from that
Speaker 1: injury with the Patel attendant, another year in the system
Speaker 1: with Seattle with Russell Wilson. In a few weeks ago,
Speaker 1: we also got reports that even last year, Jimmy Graham
Speaker 1: was kind of um nursing that injury and that they
Speaker 1: are ready to kind of take the training wheels off
Speaker 1: for Jimmy Graham in that Seattle offense. So I'm actually
Speaker 1: high on Jimmy Graham. I think he once again goes
Speaker 1: back to being a top three tight end. All right there.
Speaker 1: One of the things I want to also give you
Speaker 1: today before we go into Labor Day weekend, right because
Speaker 1: first of all, I'm gonna be off on Monday, so
Speaker 1: everybody can enjoy their holiday at the end of the summer,
Speaker 1: can start grilling and chilling. Right, save me some corns,
Speaker 1: gave me some hamburgers. I'll be there. If you want
Speaker 1: to holler at me at eight four four eight four
Speaker 1: seven nine and tell me where your barbecue is going
Speaker 1: to be. I'll maybe stop going by. But when we
Speaker 1: come back on Tuesday, listen, it is week one, okay,
Speaker 1: So if you remember Fantasy Freestyle last year. I went
Speaker 1: game by game, I tell you what you need to spotlight,
Speaker 1: I tell you everything about injuries. Will also be giving
Speaker 1: you my DFS lineups. It is gonna be full on football.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of excited tonight kind of feels like Christmas
Speaker 1: Christmas Eve, right because we're anticipating the start of football.
Speaker 1: When I wake up that first Sunday, it is like
Speaker 1: football Christmasmas to me. I'm very excited to see what
Speaker 1: gifts I have when we get into Week one. Also,
Speaker 1: Week one is gonna be the start of survivor pools
Speaker 1: as well, and I'm gonna be giving you not only
Speaker 1: the bets that you need, but I'm gonna be giving
Speaker 1: you the survivor plays that you need. Okay, And what
Speaker 1: you could do with that is go right over to www.
Speaker 1: Dot Fantasy Factor dot com. They are holding contests right now.
Speaker 1: It is free to enter, free to enter a thousand
Speaker 1: dollar knockout survivor pool. Well you gotta do is pick
Speaker 1: the right teams. Can't believe one team each week to win,
Speaker 1: and obviously when you use them, you will not be
Speaker 1: able to use them again. So even if you think
Speaker 1: the paths to go in sixteen, and oh you can
Speaker 1: only use them once. Go over to Fantasy factor dot
Speaker 1: com right now and enter the free knockout pool paying
Speaker 1: somebody a thousand dollars. Why can't it be you? All Right?
Speaker 1: I told you about some defenses that I wanted to
Speaker 1: talk about. Okay, generally speaking, you're not gonna pick a
Speaker 1: defense early, right, You're gonna wait till your second to last,
Speaker 1: pick your last pick of your draft to pick a defense.
Speaker 1: So if you're in, you know, a twelve team league,
Speaker 1: let's say eleven other people can pick their defenses. They
Speaker 1: can pick the top eleven defenses on the board. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you four d defenses here that are outside
Speaker 1: of that that I think a legit that I think
Speaker 1: are gonna return top eight kind of value this season.
Speaker 1: The first one we talked about it a little bit
Speaker 1: before when the caller asked about front Gore. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about the Los Angeles Rams, the Los Angeles Rams or
Speaker 1: defense number twelve right now, and I like them. Listen. Uh.
Speaker 1: The new head coach out there, Sean McVeigh. One of
Speaker 1: the smart things he did was higher wage Phillips as
Speaker 1: his defensive coordinator. Okay, he has a history of making
Speaker 1: defenses jump up in the rankings in the first year,
Speaker 1: sometimes dramatically, and this Rams defense was okay to begin with.
Speaker 1: Remember you got Aaron Donald in the middle there, one
Speaker 1: of the best players on the defensive side of the
Speaker 1: ball in the entire league. And I think the new
Speaker 1: scheme they're running is gonna be great for Mr Ogletree
Speaker 1: puts some pressure on Remember they're also in Week one
Speaker 1: playing Andrew luck Less Indianapolis Colts with Scott Tolzen. And
Speaker 1: here's the other thing. Think about this division they're playing.
Speaker 1: I personally think that the Cardinals are prime for regression,
Speaker 1: so that's not that bad. The forty Niners aren't gonna
Speaker 1: scare anybody. And the Seattle Seahawks, that offensive line, you're
Speaker 1: gonna be able to get some sacks against them as well.
Speaker 1: That six of your games. I think the Los Angeles
Speaker 1: Rams are are interesting defense to target. They're going right
Speaker 1: now is defense number twelve? What about defense number thirteen?
Speaker 1: So Jacksonville Jaguars, Okay, listen. Obviously there's bordal service and
Speaker 1: the problem on offense, but this defense looks decent on paper.
Speaker 1: Remember last year they signed Malie Jackson. They drafted. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know Miles jack and Jalen Ramsey. They have Dante
Speaker 1: Fowler as a young kid maybe being healthy now. Now
Speaker 1: they went out and signed a J. Bouyer in the
Speaker 1: back end and Calais Campbell to pair with Malie Jackson
Speaker 1: on that front seven. I think that is pretty good.
Speaker 1: I think their defense is decent on paper. And also
Speaker 1: remember Jacksonville is moving now to a more They want
Speaker 1: to copy Tennessee in that division and be exotic smashed
Speaker 1: mouth also right, so if they're gonna be more run
Speaker 1: for focus, if they're gonna be more time of possession,
Speaker 1: that means less time their defense is on the field.
Speaker 1: And think about their division Indianapolis Colts without Andrew Luck,
Speaker 1: they Houston Texans. They're not an offensive team. They're another
Speaker 1: defensive based team, whether it's Tom Savage or the rookie
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson that gets under center. I like this Jacksonville
Speaker 1: Jaguars the defense as one to check the matchups week
Speaker 1: by week. You can go with Jacksonville defense number fourteen
Speaker 1: in the rankings right now on Fantasy pros. The Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 1: I am so high on the Philadelphia Eagles. I am
Speaker 1: higher than them that I am on this purple. Okay,
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles at defense fourteen, I love them. They
Speaker 1: traded for Ronald Darby right up um help out their
Speaker 1: cornerback situation. They drafted Derek Barnett to add to that
Speaker 1: pass rush alongside guys like Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham.
Speaker 1: They signed Timmy Joern again as well. That front line
Speaker 1: is going to be stout. And here's the other thing.
Speaker 1: Think about the rest of the division. I expect regression
Speaker 1: from every quarterback in the NFC East outside of Philadelphia.
Speaker 1: Eli Manning falling off a cliff leading the league in interceptions,
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott no way, he repeats that four interception performance,
Speaker 1: and who knows when Zeke Elliott will or will not
Speaker 1: be playing. And then you have the Washington football team.
Speaker 1: Well Kirk Cousins really repeat that or is there some
Speaker 1: regression in store for him as well? Without Pierre Garson
Speaker 1: and of course DeShawn Jackson, I think that division is
Speaker 1: prime for Philadelphia. I think their defense, who was one
Speaker 1: of the top five defenses in d v o A
Speaker 1: last year. I think they're primed. They're ready to go
Speaker 1: to make a big run this year. So I like
Speaker 1: the defense of the Philadelphia Eagles. And here's the last
Speaker 1: one that I'm gonna give you their defense seventeen right now,
Speaker 1: and we're talking about not the San Diego but the
Speaker 1: Loss and Angels Chargers. I like this defense. Listen, Joey
Speaker 1: Bosa is a stud I think Joey Bosa can get
Speaker 1: around fourteen sacks this year, if not more, creating pressure
Speaker 1: on that front. I like that the Chargers now have
Speaker 1: back their number one in the back, Jason Verrette on
Speaker 1: the side. He is a true number one lockdown corner.
Speaker 1: Reason to be happy there. They have a fourth place schedule,
Speaker 1: do the Chargers because they lost a lot of tight
Speaker 1: gamings last year, finished in last in that division, So
Speaker 1: a favorable schedule. And think about this. Also, the Denver
Speaker 1: Broncos with their experiment with Trevor Simeon, I don't know
Speaker 1: that doesn't scare me. Alex Smith, we know that that's
Speaker 1: a game manager kind of team. The other offenses outside
Speaker 1: of Oakland in this division, they don't share scare me
Speaker 1: at either. So I like the Los Angeles Chargers. And
Speaker 1: remember we had ni Con yesterday out there in l
Speaker 1: A with Pro Angle media. He was saying that they
Speaker 1: got a chance to have an interesting little home field
Speaker 1: advantage in that new stadium they're playing with, the l
Speaker 1: A Galaxy Stadium that they're paying and intimate setting only
Speaker 1: thirty thousand. Those are some defenses to check out and remember.
Speaker 1: If you need some more ideas about defense, what you
Speaker 1: can do is go right now and go check out
Speaker 1: on Amazon. Go check out The Definitive Guy to Fantasy
Speaker 1: Football by my man Benny Riccardi. I wrote a chapter
Speaker 1: in this book, and it was about streaming defenses and
Speaker 1: how you can do it. Some of the things you
Speaker 1: need to think about, like the regression candidates in the division,
Speaker 1: the division matchups, the time of possession. Like I said,
Speaker 1: with the Jaguars, they're looking now to move the ball
Speaker 1: on the ground with time of possession less time on
Speaker 1: the field for the defense. Another reason I like them.
Speaker 1: The other thing you need to do right now is
Speaker 1: some of these divisions. I told you I like the
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles. I like them on the over there over
Speaker 1: under is only eight and a half for the season.
Speaker 1: So what I did, I went over to my bookie
Speaker 1: dot Ag, and I threw a couple of shekels on
Speaker 1: the season win total for the Philadelphia Eagles. I like
Speaker 1: the Eagles over eight and a half. I like the
Speaker 1: Eagles maybe to in fact win the NFC East. So
Speaker 1: I went over to my bookie dot a g okay,
Speaker 1: and I, uh, you know, I put a little bit
Speaker 1: of a cash on it right because I want to
Speaker 1: grow that money. And you could take all the money
Speaker 1: that you have because you're not paying for the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Network because you're getting it free on I Heart Radio,
Speaker 1: on tune In Radio on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network app,
Speaker 1: and go on over to my bookie dot ag especially
Speaker 1: for the start of football season. They pay out quick.
Speaker 1: The reputation is rock solid and they got a great
Speaker 1: match offer right now for your first hundred dollars if
Speaker 1: you go ahead of first match bonus for your initial
Speaker 1: deposit if you enter the promo code freestyle. Okay, that
Speaker 1: should boy. Dane Martinez speeds the spitting statistician holding you
Speaker 1: down all right. When we come back here on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, one of
Speaker 1: the things I'm gonna do is talk about how we
Speaker 1: slide into the holiday weekend. I think the karma is
Speaker 1: gonna come back to bite the New England Patriots they've
Speaker 1: been real arrogant lately. They've been in kind of like
Speaker 1: Gronk you mode with a couple of things they've done
Speaker 1: this offseason. I'm gonna tell you why it's building bad karma,
Speaker 1: why Julian Edelman may have been the beneficiary. It's all
Speaker 1: about karma. Joe and Detroit needs to know about that.
Speaker 1: The Patriots need to know about that. We're dropping stats
Speaker 1: over beach right here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the
Speaker 1: award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I'm gonna talk about
Speaker 1: white karma might come back to like the Pats. And
Speaker 1: then you're gonna get Gabe Morancy on Red Heat and
Speaker 1: Rage right here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network.

Speaker 1: they got something to say, but nothing comes out when
Speaker 1: they moved their lips. It's just a bunch of gibberish,
Speaker 1: and everyone acts like they know like speeds. Everybody got
Speaker 1: a little bit of gibberish when people open their lips
Speaker 1: tonight on the Fantasy Freestyle. But that is okay. I
Speaker 1: am still here to help you win your leagues and
Speaker 1: win that cash. It's Dane Martinez, a spitting statistician on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle and Bovona. It looks like we got
Speaker 1: we got. You know, we got another call Frankie Queens.
Speaker 1: We're gonna let him on because we've been talking about
Speaker 1: tight ends, diamonds and full gaze. He's he's got a
Speaker 1: tight end. Question. What's going on? Frank my New York
Speaker 1: City head right here, you're on the Fantasy Freestyle. What's up, dude?
Speaker 1: So my league twelve team halfpoint tpr. I'm picking from
Speaker 1: the sixth so I picked up shady first pick. I
Speaker 1: get a guy second round eighteen overall, so that's nice value.
Speaker 1: In the third round, I ran into kind of a
Speaker 1: tricky scenario. Um, I had Zeke was still on the board.
Speaker 1: And this was earlier in the week before the news
Speaker 1: came out that it mentioned maybe the U uh maybe dropped,
Speaker 1: So I didn't know that. So I had Kelsey at
Speaker 1: the thirtieth pick overall, and I picked him headed Zeke.
Speaker 1: Now you figure out didn't get a wide receiver right there.
Speaker 1: So later in the draft I picked up Digs, I
Speaker 1: picked up Devon Day, I picked up Mark Tavis, I
Speaker 1: got t J. Anderson later, Um, so what do you
Speaker 1: think about that? I mean, I know, I know I
Speaker 1: heard you earlier that you were against picking Zeke two
Speaker 1: as well. I was worried about living him during the playoffs.
Speaker 1: And I also think, yeah, yeah, yeah, go ahead, go ahead, Symon,
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. And and and also I like Kelsey's upside
Speaker 1: this year, especially with touchdowns. I mean, you've got a
Speaker 1: lot of balls. Last year only had all four tds,
Speaker 1: and that offense doesn't have a lot of weapons, and
Speaker 1: he's very consistent, hasn't missed games. So I mean, I
Speaker 1: mean a lot of people tell me they didn't like
Speaker 1: that pick, but I still feel pretty confident with it,
Speaker 1: especially with the guys that I got after Yeah, Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm not mad at that either, Frank. Okay, Listen, Travis
Speaker 1: Kelsey is my tight end number one this year because
Speaker 1: you can't trust the injury history of Jordan Reed or
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski. Remember the Chiefs also gave away Jeremy Macklin
Speaker 1: in the offseason. They're expecting Tyreek Hill to be their
Speaker 1: number one pass catcher, but it's really gonna be Baby
Speaker 1: Gronk Travis Kelsey. You talked about some other wide outs
Speaker 1: that you had, like Davante Parker and Stefon Digs. I
Speaker 1: liked those guys as values that you got later on.
Speaker 1: And then obviously the top two running backs you have
Speaker 1: are okay, You're gonna have a week to week advantage
Speaker 1: at tight end. Listen, if Zeke slipped that far, at
Speaker 1: some point, you do gotta pull the trigger on Zeke.
Speaker 1: But I'm with you, Frank. I agree that the idea
Speaker 1: of that suspense and hanging over his head later on
Speaker 1: in the season and it could come down we twelve
Speaker 1: fourteen something like that, that would really hurt you in
Speaker 1: the fantasy playoffs. You're gonna have a week to week
Speaker 1: advantage with Travis Kelsey at tight end, we got time
Speaker 1: for only one more caller, I believe. Do we still
Speaker 1: have Frank in Oklahoma? Chris? All right? Frank in Oklahoma,
Speaker 1: You're gonna be the last call of the summer, apparently
Speaker 1: because when we're back after La Jabor Day, I can't
Speaker 1: wear white anymore. With shifting of football. What is your question,
Speaker 1: Frank in Oklahoma a standard league, I'm gonna running back
Speaker 1: for King in the standard league. I'm picking it to
Speaker 1: turn um. I got you Roody Nielson and Michael Thomas
Speaker 1: staring me at the face. My question is, you know,
Speaker 1: should I sho get those two and then focus on
Speaker 1: running backs? Laters? Too much of a risk past umple
Speaker 1: bell cat running back? Yeah, so you mentioned and thank
Speaker 1: you for the call man, our last call of the summer.
Speaker 1: Here on the Fantasy Freestyle, you talked about the idea
Speaker 1: of the bell cow running back. If you're at the
Speaker 1: turn man, if you're picking like twelve and thirteen of
Speaker 1: ten or leven, depainting on the size of your league,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get the bell cow running back there anyway. Okay,
Speaker 1: The bell cows are David Johnson Levy on on bell
Speaker 1: you know, Lashawn McCoy, maybe maybe Melvin Gordon. They're not
Speaker 1: gonna be there anyway. It sounded like you talked about
Speaker 1: guys like Jordy Nelson, Michael Thomas, deaz Bryant, you know,
Speaker 1: other true studs that will be there at that point.
Speaker 1: You know, maybe you even get an A J. Green
Speaker 1: at that point. I would, in fact, I like your
Speaker 1: wide out wide eye idea. Then your next time, make
Speaker 1: sure you get heavy running backs in the NFL is
Speaker 1: all committee. These days, you're gonna still be able to
Speaker 1: find some running backs. Thanks for almost all the calls,
Speaker 1: Thanks for all the Twitter votes. I'm der boy, Dame Martinez,
Speaker 1: speed spitting statistician. No show for the holiday on Monday,
Speaker 1: but when we come back on Tuesday, it is Are
Speaker 1: you ready for some football? I certainly am, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna help you win your leagues and win that cash speeds.
Speaker 1: I'm out fantasy freestyle. Let's go
