00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: It's been a while, as I am back and kind

8
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: of back. You don't have you No, I'm not gonna lie.

9
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,520
Speaker 1: I'm I feel like my head is gonna explode from allergies.

10
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: It's yeah, we've had a bad allergy season here in Minnesota.

11
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: I don't know that global warming is that allergies? I

12
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: don't know. That's probably It's a lot of stuff. It's

13
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: just the fall of Western civilization. I don't I don't

14
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: want to be a Debbie downer, but any means. But

15
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: I'm not feeling great. But I'm here. I'm excited to

16
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: be back good and we're happy to have you back.

17
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: Some fantasy foot Yeah, let's do it. The next two

18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: those are dedicated to offseason winners and losers, because now

19
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: with the draft behind us, free agency behind us, we

20
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: can pretty fairly evaluate which guys just through all the

21
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: off season machin nations ended up in a better spot

22
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: than expected, and guys that ended up in worse well.

23
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: And to clarify, we're really talking about guys who are

24
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: on their existing team, Like we're not going to talk

25
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: about guys. Yeah, just sort of ended un All these

26
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: players are on the same team they played for last year,

27
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: and based on the off season moves and the draft,

28
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: are they a winner or a loser based on the outcomes.

29
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 1: Some of the times, and this is a perfect example,

30
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 1: is going to be the first two. Some of the

31
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 1: times it's guys who took a big swing, and other

32
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: times it's just a gentle adjustment. We're gonna do winners

33
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: this week because and losers next week because winners come

34
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: before losers. Yeah. Uh. As a side note, before we

35
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: get into our off season winners. Brian guilloteen leagues the

36
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: site expected to launch in about a little over a

37
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: week or so, I would guess, So we're getting very

38
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: close I out our final details and getting ready for

39
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: the Guillotine League season. We encourage you to stay tuned

40
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: for that. Maybe a very very special surprise, possibly yes,

41
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: it's gonna be some fun stuff in there. We'll break

42
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 1: it down on the next thing, probably an excruciating detail. Yes, yes,

43
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a edition of Chop Podcast without you.

44
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: By the way, on Monday, I'm having on JJ Zacharias

45
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: and to talk about um how he went to and

46
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: oh in his two guillotine leagues last year. He won

47
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: them both that ain't luck and one of them was.

48
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 1: One was an expert's league, so it was a very impressive.

49
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: It should be offended, but I won't get mad about

50
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: getting bumped for JJ's not great. Great, he's a great guest. Yeah,

51
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: and we're not I'm making you not have to come

52
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: over here. I appreciate it. All right, let's into my kitchen,

53
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: which is where we record these off season shows. What

54
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: are the cookies. By the way, my wife's gone surprise,

55
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: the house isn't on fire. Right. Uh. Quarterbacks are the

56
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: first order of business, and I mentioned the first two quarterbacks.

57
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: This first guy took a big swing to the positive

58
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: as his team does basically everything possible to make good

59
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: on the draft position of to a tongo viola. Yeah,

60
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: he is certainly a winner. Despite getting continually dragged on

61
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: social media, it seems like uh the latest episode uh

62
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: the underthrow video to a wide receiver will mention in

63
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: a minute, but uh, yeah to a definitely a big

64
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: offseason winner. Uh, mainly because of the trade for Tyreek Hill. Uh,

65
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: you don't have to bomb to Tyreek Hill. You could

66
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: give him a little two yard shovel past. Yeah, we'll

67
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: take it to the house. So yeah, that's it's a

68
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: big boon for two who. Of course he has Jalen

69
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: Waddle going to his second year. Uh. Dolphins also signed

70
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson from Dallas. They did lose Davante Parker. I'd

71
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: say Parker is still more talented than Wilson, but Wilson's

72
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: more reliable in terms of staying. How the Damante Parker

73
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: uh always seem to be getting injured. They maintained Mike

74
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: Siki tight end, who's really a more so a wide

75
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: receiver than a tight end. They signed Chase Edmonds, who's

76
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: a great pass catching running back presumably gonna be there

77
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: starting running back, so the offense way better in Miami.

78
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: They also signed left tackle Toronto Armstead, uh, coming over

79
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: from New Orleans. Pro Football Focus has him ranked as

80
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: the fifth best left tackle since the eighteen season. So

81
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 1: that's not to his blind side because he's a lefty.

82
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: It's it's a massive upgrade for the offensive line and

83
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 1: an upgraded head coach, at least from an offensive perspective,

84
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: with Mike Mike McDaniel the offensive coordinator coming over from

85
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 1: San Francisco under the tutelage of the Kyle Shanahan offensive mastermind.

86
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: According to most, so, yeah to a toungo viola QB

87
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: seventeen right now. But they've certainly uh top twelve upside

88
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: currently round ten and top ten. To be he's he'd

89
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: have to he'd have to take a serious jump to

90
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: get into top ten, I think, And I'll give out

91
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: the I'll give out the current ADP for all of

92
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: these guys, but when we talk about them, Brian, I

93
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: didn't this time, but I will. I think we're gonna

94
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: almost always say this guy's being under drafted because we

95
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: think these are all winners of the off season, and

96
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 1: in many cases more so than is being reflected in

97
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: the a DP. Okay, next, I menttioned a gentle winner.

98
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: I think that's Kirk Cousins because people in Minnesota will

99
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: know this is or if you follow me on Twitter.

100
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: This will not come as a shock that I'm a

101
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: Cousin supporter that I believe have been held down by

102
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: a Mike Zimmer offense and all of the necessities to

103
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: run all the time and everything else never used to

104
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: play action. This is gonna be a potentially far better

105
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: season for Cousins, even though there was no significant change

106
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: in personnel outside of an upgraded guard and the return

107
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 1: to health of tight end Or Smith. But and and

108
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: Adam feelings the last third of the season. Yeah, you know, if,

109
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: um if with Kevin O'Connell there, I think you're gonna

110
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: get an uptick in just opportunities for Cousin. Now you're

111
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: gonna throw a lot more period and also probably much

112
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: more effectively because they just haven't had strong offensive minds

113
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: and orient and passing orientations with this team really since

114
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski left. Over the past four years, has any

115
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: quarterback in fantasy football been is under drafted and has

116
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: overperformed as much as Kirk Cousins, who every year goes

117
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: off it finishes it like quarterback twelve and gets appears

118
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: on cheat sheets at quarterback twenty. Current ADP I should

119
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: mention QUB fifteen, So I think there is there is

120
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,679
Speaker 1: a little bit of love out there for Kirk Cousins

121
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: for sure. Next up, Jalen Hurts currently quarterback eleven, going

122
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: off the board in round six. Yeah, his ADP has

123
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: certainly started to rise since the trade for a J.

124
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 1: Brown and that that is that's the major improvement for

125
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: that Eagles offense. Uh, outside of Davante Smith who was

126
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: a rookie last year. These are the guys heard S

127
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: has been throwing too a wide receiver over the last

128
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: two seasons. Jalen Reagor, Greg Ward, Quez Watkins, Travis Folgum,

129
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 1: John Hyower, j j Arthega Whiteside, and Deonte Burnett Gross.

130
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: But now you've got a J. Brown DeVante Smith. See,

131
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: if you can't draft a good wide receiver, maybe you

132
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: should just go buy one they already know is good. Yeah,

133
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: and I think that was a great, great deal for Philly.

134
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: And I also love Dallas Goddard this year. We covered

135
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: we talked a couple of months ago, but to recap quickly,

136
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: he didn't see a ton of targets last year, but

137
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: zach Ertz was int got it was banged up a

138
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: little bit, but Gottard average two point two points per

139
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: target in PPR leagues, which is insane. Second in yards

140
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: per reception among tight ends at fifteen, first in yards

141
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: per route run let all tight ends, and completed area

142
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: yards per target at six point four. So I love

143
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: the weapons of the past game. Hurts obviously a threat

144
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: on the ground as well. The protection upfront is great.

145
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: The Eagles old line was ranked fourth overall by Pro

146
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: Football Focus last year in one. So I'm not saying

147
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen, but there is a chance Jalen Hurts

148
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: is your top scoring He's got it if all if

149
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: all the cards fall the right way for him, and

150
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: it's all about passing. I mean, his passing has not

151
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: been up to NFL levels to this point. But if

152
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: it comes together in your three and he can put

153
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: together passing yards and at thirty two touchdowns through the

154
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: air and had in his in his rushing, that's how

155
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 1: you get to quarterback one overall, which could happen. The

156
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: next quarterback is maybe the biggest offseason winner of all quarterbacks,

157
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: and it's Derek Carr currently going off the board at

158
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 1: quarterback sixteen with a round nine a average draft position.

159
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: Last year, Derek Carr put up four thousand, eight hundred

160
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: yards with Hunter renfro as his only reliable receiver. Unbelievable.

161
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: Ruggs went away for ever, Darren Waller missed almost the

162
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: whole season, you know, and obviously gaining Davante Adams giant,

163
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: you know, gigantic move from them. But let's not forget

164
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:12,319
Speaker 1: they also added competence for depth at wide receiver Brian,

165
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: DeMarcus Robinson, Keelan Cole, not guys that are gonna change,

166
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: you know, change games, but guys who are just competent,

167
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: which they didn't even have. They had no competent depth

168
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: at the receiver position. So if these guys need to

169
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: come on the field when they're four wide, or if

170
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: they need to fill in and a handful of spots starts,

171
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: at least the whole offense isn't at a massive downgrade

172
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 1: like we had seen in the past with the Raiders

173
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: depth chart. So if Carr can repeat last year's forty

174
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: eight hundred yards with far better wide receivers, let's just

175
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: say he repeats forty eight hundred yards Brian. And if

176
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: you think Waller is good for ten touchdowns, and if

177
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 1: you think Adams is good for fourteen touchdowns. That puts

178
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: them that puts them in more touchdowns, and he had

179
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: last year Derek Carr by by themselves. That puts them

180
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: in downs right there. And if he's tracking thirty, without

181
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: a doubt, he's gonna he'll sit right, He'll sit well

182
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: over thirty at that point. I love Derek Carr. I'm accumulating.

183
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: Remember I can now before everybody catches up to this,

184
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: he's quietly been a very good quarterback the last couple

185
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: of years, given what's been around him. And now he

186
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: gets all the benefits of a totally new uh totally

187
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: knew what should be improved coaching staff. Josh McDaniels offensive

188
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,719
Speaker 1: minded head coach. YEA so very very high. Derek Carr

189
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:33,359
Speaker 1: is one of my favorite offseason winners. We talk running backs.

190
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: What's your running backs? And then then we'll take our break.

191
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: Sounds good, we will just put it in right in

192
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: the middle. We'll find out. We'll begin with James Conner

193
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: Brian current ADP is running back twenty going off the

194
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: board in round four. He was and a rather unexpected

195
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: fantasy stalwart last year, pretty much a league winner. Eighteen

196
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: total touchdowns last season and that's with Chase Edmonds taking

197
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: nine touches out of that backfield. As we just talked

198
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: about earlier, Chase Edmonds has taken his talents to Miami,

199
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 1: kind of like Lebron James did. But Edmonds is not

200
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 1: the Lebron James of running backs by any means. But yeah,

201
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: Connor going way too late. Uh either it's RB twenty,

202
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,959
Speaker 1: I see him goes high, it's RB fifteen. He's a

203
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: borderline first round pick. There should be um here is

204
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: running back finishes and half point PPR during the weeks

205
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: that Edmunds missed last year RB one, RB sixteen, RB eight,

206
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: RB eleven, RB two and RB three finishes for James

207
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 1: Conner without Chase Edmonds, And there is no Chase Edmonds

208
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: yet again, how I mean they didn't replace him with

209
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: anybody that looks like a threat to Connor? No, not really.

210
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: Uh you know, Benjamin is still around. He flashed in

211
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: one or two games when mcconnor was hurt, and they

212
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: drafted Keyante Ingram in the sixth round. He's got a

213
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 1: nice skill set, but there's not enough draft equity there

214
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: to really concern you. So yeah, James Connor, I mean,

215
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: be the opposite guy. You know, if you've gone wide receiver,

216
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: tight end, wide receiver, and out, it's round four. James

217
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: conn He's gonna be creeping up. His ad P will

218
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: be creeping up as you get into the I think,

219
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 1: what what what very reasonably gives people pause on Connor.

220
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: He's not special, He's not a special talent. It's all

221
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: opportunity here because Kyler Murray does not run the ball

222
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: from inside the five yard line. It's all touchdown dependent.

223
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: I mean, there are there are some there are some

224
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: worries here compared to other elite running backs. You could

225
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: go wal you know, I can see the talent in

226
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: in in pick a guy Dalvin Cook mean, obviously uber

227
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: talented player. James Conner is a pedestrian NFL starting running back.

228
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: It's all opportunity and a better pass catcher than most realize.

229
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: He's a good pass catching back. And it's worth noting, uh,

230
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins is gonna miss the first six weeks of

231
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: the first six games of the season. They could trade

232
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: for Mark He's brown, of course, but there's probably be

233
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 1: a few more targets to go around out of that back.

234
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk gone as well. Yep, the second running back

235
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: that is an offseason winner. Say Kwan Barkley currently going

236
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: off the boarder running back fourteen. That's round three. It's

237
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: reasons for optimism is its second year off his a

238
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: c L which is great. Giants brought in no competition

239
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: unless you count Matt Brida. Matt Brita was with new

240
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: head coach Brian Dable last year and Dable barely used him.

241
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: Then Dable is gonna be pretty good. I think is

242
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: a head coach field. You know, the Bill's offense was

243
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: obviously super dynamic, and they Brian Dable wrenched every ounce

244
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: of fantasy output out of that offense he possibly could have,

245
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: which I love. And Dable target running backs nine times

246
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: last year with passes. Barkley is a better pass catcher

247
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: than anybody they had last year. Singletary has it got

248
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: average hands, Zack Moss below average hands. Now, Sacan Barkley

249
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: is a far better receiver, and he's the only guy

250
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: who can really catch in that backfield. So your figure,

251
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: if Dabele's gonna spread around passes to this backfield, Barkley

252
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: might have eight of those targets. Oh yeah, we've seen

253
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 1: him almost We saw him get targeted twenty times in

254
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 1: a game a few years ago with Eli Manning. But yeah, yeah,

255
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: he's he's it's gonna be a big bounce back here

256
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: for Barkley. I'm with you that. I think most people

257
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: feel that way. Um his also a note here improvements

258
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: to New York's offensive line the first round tackle of

259
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: and Neil. They brought in guard Mark Glowinski and then

260
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: guard center hybrid John Feliciano. So there's a lot of

261
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 1: improvements for that Giant's offensive line as well, and that's

262
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: why a lot of people, particularly in PPR, are very

263
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: very optimistic about s Kwon Barkley. Another winner for this offseason,

264
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: and a massive downgrade on defense, losing corner James Bradberry

265
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: due to the ineptitude of Dave Gentleman. So cap managing

266
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: lots of lots of coming from behind for the Giants

267
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: this year. Point chasing garbage time, glorinus, that's not a word.

268
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: I'm blaming that on the allergy mids. Let's go to

269
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders currently going off the board a running back

270
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: twenty seven, round six. Yeah, that's way too late. He

271
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: did have zero touch huns last year. That's what everyone's

272
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: really focusing on I think, but uh, that's just an

273
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: outlier to me. When healthy Sanders played more snaps inside

274
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: the five fifteen of them, uh than Boston Scott and

275
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: Kenneth Gainewell and Jordan Howard combined. So it was just

276
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: bizarre he didn't get in the end zone. Jalen hurts

277
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: of course, vultures and opportunities near the goal line as well.

278
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: But uh, I think Sanders bounces back this year. He's

279
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: in a contract year, which some he was a bad thing,

280
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: but I I like the fact he's in the contract

281
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 1: here because they might just run him into the ground

282
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: like de Marco Murray's last year and the classic example

283
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: of most famous example. And uh so yeah, I mean

284
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: they Philly didn't draft any big name running back, or

285
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 1: any running back for that matter, as far as I know,

286
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: I do like Kenneth Gainwell, but he still feels like

287
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: more of the change of pace back, UH might get

288
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: more opportunities if Sanders gets hurt. Boston Scott is back.

289
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: Uh scored seven touchdowns last year. How does a little

290
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: tiny Boston Scott score seven and Miles Sanders gets notne

291
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: So that's not happening this year. If anyone's scoring seven touchdowns,

292
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Miles Sanders, who, as you said, running

293
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: back twenty six right now, an insane value. And another

294
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: guy will probably see creep up his ADP creep up

295
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: as we get into the summer into drafts. Yeah, you

296
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: and I may have been looking at slightly different places

297
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: for our for for our ADPs. You may hear slight

298
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: variations in I had seven twenty six, but people get

299
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: the gist of it. Here's a here's a guy who

300
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: uh is not I don't know. This is a very

301
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: I think, very slight winner. J K. Dobbins, Baltimore running back,

302
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: currently running back eighteen, going off the board late fourth round.

303
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: The Ravens must feel pretty good about him returning because

304
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: between him and Gus Edwards, the team to not add

305
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: any material help at the position um at. At this

306
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: time last year, Dobbins was a second round a DP.

307
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: He's had the full year to come back from the

308
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: A C L and really, I mean he only has

309
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: to hold off Gus Edwards to some degree. We know

310
00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: it'll be a one to split, a one two punch.

311
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: Mike Davi is totally not a factor here, and both

312
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 1: guys to me at a heavy discount. Gus Edwards going

313
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,719
Speaker 1: off the board in the seventeenth round. Right now, huge

314
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: blunder with a career average of five almost five and

315
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: a half yards per carry. I think it's because he

316
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: sounds his name. He sounds like he's like thirty four

317
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: years old, but I think he's only years is an

318
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: old sounding name. Let's take a break. When we come back,

319
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: we'll talk about the wide receiver winners from the off season.

320
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: When we returned to Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back, segment

321
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,639
Speaker 1: number two Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul Charchi and Brian Johnson

322
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: with you. We're going through off season winners. Next week

323
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 1: we'll do the losers. That be a much more somber affair. Yeah,

324
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 1: and we we we already started making the list. There

325
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: are a lot of running back we could do. Also,

326
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: just on running back losing the whole season. Let's go

327
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 1: to the wide receivers. Let's start with generically broadly, all

328
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 1: the Broncos wide house. Yeah. I'm not gonna really get

329
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,199
Speaker 1: too into the weeds with this one. Maybe not so much.

330
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna challenge you at the end of this time,

331
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: the one the guy you would take first, because I've

332
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: been back based on a DP. I mean, I'll let

333
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: you do whatever whatever you want. All the Broncos wide

334
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: receivers who in order as of right now in ADP

335
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: is Jerry, Judy Cortland, Sutton, Tim Patrick, and kJ Hamlerer.

336
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: Judy and Sutton. The gap is narrowed, uh, mostly because

337
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 1: of the legal trouble that Judy's kind of been in.

338
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 1: But I kind of I'm more of a Sutton guy

339
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 1: than a Judy guy. But it's you're getting. You're going

340
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,479
Speaker 1: from Teddy Bridgewater and Drew Lock to Russell Wilson and

341
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: that's that's basically it. That is the biggest upgrade running

342
00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 1: receiving corps in the NFL. So that's pretty much it

343
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: right there. I mean, they're all winners as opposed to

344
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater who can't throw more than thirty yards down field.

345
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: And you know, we've seen Sutton have the big the

346
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: big season because he was able to do it a

347
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. We feel like Judy is the

348
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: most talented out of the group, but it hasn't materialized

349
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: on field and in box scores yet. Zero touch sounds

350
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: for Judy, I believe last year, and then Tim Patrick

351
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: is just a wild card that isn't on the field

352
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: is often, but has managed to be productive every time

353
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 1: he's had to sub in for one of those guys

354
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: when they're injured, which has been a lot. So there's

355
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: going to be opportunity for all of those and I

356
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 1: think the fact that they're all relevant has pushed down

357
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 1: their very They're all of their a dp s a

358
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: little bit. Sutton like se Kwon Barkley will be two

359
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: years removed from a series knee injury too, so I'm

360
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: expecting a big bounce back from Sutton. But yeah, whether

361
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 1: you're going a full full Broncos stack or if you're

362
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: just drafting Judy or a Sutton, I think Tim Patrick

363
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: is kind of that rare wide receiver hand you really

364
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: want to have in the event that one of them

365
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: is hurt or suspended in Jerry Judy's case, and uh

366
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: kJ Hamm are really more of a best ball spike

367
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: week flyer kind of guy, not a guy you want

368
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: to decide to put in your starting lineup weegin in

369
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: week out unless he's clearly gonna have a full time role,

370
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,159
Speaker 1: which he doesn't right now. While we're talking Broncos, we

371
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 1: had debated putting Albert Oh into this conversation of offseason winners,

372
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: but ultimately decided not to just because that rookie tight

373
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: end Greg Dulcinch, that dude's a beast, and he may

374
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: really materially eat into Albert Oh's production at some point.

375
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: It may not be this year because as we just

376
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: we've talked about a million times, rookie tight ends generally

377
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: don't fare well. And he's a third rounder, not a

378
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 1: first rounder like say a Kyle Pitts. But still, uh,

379
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: you know, Albert Oh gets a certain amount of viability

380
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 1: right now currently going off the board at tight end

381
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't seem like the volume is going to be

382
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: there for Albert I mean, we have to worry a

383
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: little bit. Obviously, a great running game to in Denver

384
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: with Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon. You know, one of

385
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: the thing I mentioned, there's a I think there's a

386
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: large there's a big notion out that Russell Wilson can't

387
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: feed tight ends, But in reality, over most of the

388
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: past four or five six years, he's just had rotating

389
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 1: tight ends that and he and he disperses the ball

390
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 1: among a lot of different tight ends with the way

391
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: they used him in Seattle, but if you rolled up

392
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: all of their tightens together, he has usage on tight

393
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: ends is actually pretty NFL average. Yeah. And also a

394
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 1: f C West, all of those divisional games are fireworks

395
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: everyone between the Raiders and the Chiefs and the Chargers,

396
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: they all feel like good games. So that's six. That's

397
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: like almost six guaranteed shootouts for each a f C

398
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,479
Speaker 1: West team right there. I like, you know, those are

399
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: the rare divisional games are gonna lave. Okay, So let's

400
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: move on from Lebroncos to another offseason wide receiver winner

401
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 1: see de Lamb. I think he's as big an off

402
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,120
Speaker 1: season winner as there is out of this whole list

403
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 1: currently wide receiver eight. I have him higher in my

404
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 1: cheat sheet. He's going off the board in round two.

405
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: The off season trade of Amari Cooper is, of course huge,

406
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,479
Speaker 1: but so is the late season a C L suffered

407
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 1: by Michael Gallup. His availability for the start of the

408
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: season is very much in question. And then Cedric Wilson,

409
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: who was good in relief last year, goes off to

410
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 1: Miami and all they did was bring in James Washington,

411
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 1: who has done nothing but underperform in his time in Pittsburgh.

412
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: They did draft Jalen Tilbert, who's some, but he's he's

413
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: a Brookie. He's he's a good project, the heal factor.

414
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, I'm with you. Ceedee Lamb not getting

415
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: drafted as latest Cooper Cup last year, but he feels

416
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: like the guy that could take that meteorc leap that

417
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: the Cup did last year. Lamb. The biggest threats for

418
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,239
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb for targets are is running back in tight end.

419
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's just it's such a key spot.

420
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: Frem and I'll mention this as well. Now with Amari

421
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,239
Speaker 1: Cooper out, Uh, he's gonna move outside. I really think

422
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna play him largely outside, where he was more

423
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: and more effective and consistent fan of S producer then

424
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: he has been when he's worked primarily from the slot.

425
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 1: Next offseason winner Darnell Mooney wide receiver twenty nine in

426
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: average draft position, round six. Yeah, he's going way too

427
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,199
Speaker 1: late for me. A guy I've been targeting Uh in

428
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 1: drafts since January. But last season, one of sixteen wide

429
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: receivers with more than eighty catches in one thousand yards,

430
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: he forced twenty seven miss tackles on He has forced

431
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 1: twenty seven miss tackles on reception since entering the league

432
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: in twenty that's tied for seventh among wide receivers in

433
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,719
Speaker 1: that span. In that span, and this year, he'll be

434
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 1: competing for wide receiver targets with Quinnemiss st. Brown Byron Pringle,

435
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: Uh Villis Jones Jr. Probably one of the worst draft picks.

436
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: Uh proved me wrong, Vilis, but everyone's down on Villas.

437
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 1: Dante Pettis, your old boy, Dante Pettis used have a

438
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: shot for Don and J sharp, so I will be well,

439
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 1: I didn't, I did not know Don. Hey Pettis, I'm sorry.

440
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: I couldn't help myself. I couldn't help me. He was

441
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 1: you know what you didn't. What you don't always know

442
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: is that a guy ain't that sharp. It's hard to

443
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: know from the outside, and I think that's what's derailed

444
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: Dante Pettis's career as much as anything else. But I

445
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: will be shocked if Mooney doesn't command at least fifty

446
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: targets this season. And like Ceedee Lamb, his primary competition

447
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 1: is probably gonna be his tight end cole Commit and

448
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 1: probably running backs to its, notably to other wide receivers

449
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,640
Speaker 1: poor justin fields they've given. We'll talk about justin fields

450
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 1: next year. Him we're talking about losers because he is

451
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 1: steadfastly in that group of off season losers. Next winner

452
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: Risshad Bateman Baltimore Ravens wide receiver, currently wide receiver forty

453
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: in a DP going off the board in round nine. Now,

454
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 1: it was a disappointing rookie season for a shot Bateman.

455
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 1: I think, no matter how you look at that season,

456
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 1: he had he lost the first third of the season

457
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 1: to injury. Then he came in and just didn't do

458
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: any very much with the opportunity. But the team loses.

459
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,199
Speaker 1: Marquis Brown traded Marquis Brown away. I think they had

460
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 1: decided already Brown didn't want to be there. We know

461
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: that he wanted to go elsewhere and maybe teamed up

462
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: with his college quarterback Kyler Murray's. They trade him away

463
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: and maybe they decided already they weren't going to pay

464
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: him when Markus Brown was gonna want to get paid.

465
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 1: But the next biggest target threat among wide receivers for

466
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:30,439
Speaker 1: a Shot Bateman is Devin DuVernay, who they even scored

467
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: just once last year. UM, and even when his his

468
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,679
Speaker 1: snap counts started to go up in December, and it

469
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 1: never liked went massively up. But when it went up

470
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 1: and he was getting like fifty five sixty snaps a game,

471
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: the productivity still wasn't there. And you know, Brian, I

472
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: went back. I looked at a handful of plays from

473
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 1: last year, trying to get more more looks at him.

474
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 1: And then I went to all the metrics like cushion

475
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 1: yards and yards after catch and targeted air yards. I'm

476
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: trying to find anything to counter at my eye test

477
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: and Rashad Bateman, that just he looked so pedestrian and

478
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: unlike how he looked as a Minnesota Golden Gopher when

479
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:13,679
Speaker 1: he was dominating defenses. UM. But your best reason for

480
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: optimism here. In four games in which he had eight

481
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:21,360
Speaker 1: or more targets last year, Rashad Bateman averaged seventy three yards. Yeah,

482
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: he'll be he'll be more of a force in PPR

483
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 1: full PPR. That's exactly where I think he's going to

484
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: help out. And I think the one land mine that

485
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 1: Bateman and Darnell Mooney need to avoid, it's the last

486
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 1: big name receiver that is still a free agent, and

487
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: it's not Julio Jones and it's not Odell Beckham because

488
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 1: they're both pretty much decomposing corpses at this time. But

489
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: uh is will Fuller, and I think he's a great

490
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: fit for the Bears or the Ravens one or the other.

491
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 1: So we'll see what happens with him. But as of

492
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: right now, Will Fuller is not a Bear nor a Raven.

493
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: So that dude stole ten million last year. Let's go

494
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: to Michael Pittman. He's currently wide receiver twenty one. His

495
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: average draft is Asian is in the in the fourth round,

496
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts receiver. Why do you feel like he

497
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 1: was an offseason winner? Uh? Just six touchdowns last year,

498
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: but he was top fifteen in catches and yards among

499
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Um. But it's basically he had an upgraded

500
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: quarterback with Matt Ryan, who I'm not a huge fan of,

501
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: but it's still a massive improvement over over Carson Wentz

502
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: in my mind. And they did draft Alec Pierce in

503
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: the second round out of Cincinnati. The Colts did, who

504
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: I like, but I think Pierce's presence will only help

505
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: Pittman will help Pittman. Pittman help Pittman more than hurt him, um,

506
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: because defense is really focused on him in terms of

507
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 1: the passing game. If the Jonathan Taylor, of course the

508
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: Colts offense ran through him. But uh, Pittman's just a

509
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: beast uh six four like to forty just speaking of beasts,

510
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,959
Speaker 1: not with mo Alei Cox and Gelanni Wood like they

511
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 1: got some they and Alec Pierce is a pretty big

512
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,959
Speaker 1: guy too. I think six two six three some serious

513
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: size and that in that Colts offense. But yeah, Michael

514
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: Pittman right now, going you said wide receiver twenty, I've

515
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: seen late teens. He's another guy who I think we

516
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 1: could see creep into that top twelve uh range among

517
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: wide receivers. So I just think, yeah, they didn't. They

518
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: didn't draft a big, big name. Alex Pierce is gonna

519
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: be a good player, but I don't think he steals

520
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: an up shine from Pittman this year. So I think

521
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: Pittman is gonna be in for a big, big season

522
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: next up. Alan Lazard, green Bay Packers wide receiver offseason

523
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 1: winner wide receiver fifty going off the board in round eleven,

524
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: green Bay could have reasonably used both of their first

525
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: round picks on wide receivers. As it turns out, they

526
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: didn't use any of them on wide receiver, and I

527
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: think ultimately that helps. They did add, obviously, Christian Watson

528
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: in the second round, and I think ultimately that's a

529
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: win for Lozard, although I like Watson too. Um because

530
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 1: Lazard opens the year as the air apparent to a

531
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: lot of Davante Adams absurd one hundred sixty nine targets

532
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 1: last year. I mean, though one sixty nine are gonna

533
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: have to go someplace, it's not all gonna go to

534
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: rookie receiver Christian Wattson. Lizard is gonna get a lot

535
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: of it. Lazard is not a special talent. He's I

536
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: think he is a fairly ordinary receiver talent. But he

537
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: comes in as the outstarting the number one incumbent veteran

538
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: receiver for Aaron Rodgers. That's worth a lot Randall Cobbs

539
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 1: the only other receiver with any kind of history with

540
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, and just I didn't buy virtue of being

541
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: a veteran receiver catching passes from Aaron Rodgers. Lazard is

542
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: being drafted too late wide receiver fifty. To me, he

543
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: feels like a guy you could just put into your

544
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: wide receiver three spot every week and just forget about it,

545
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 1: and he'll pay off, you know, half of the time,

546
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 1: two thirds of the time, solid games. Forty catches, five

547
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: dred yards, eight touchdowns on sixty targets. That's it. Double

548
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: the targets, right, You're talking a thousand yards and double

549
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: digit touched, digit touchdowns and close to right wide receiver fifty.

550
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 1: You know, way too late. Yeah, agreed. Let's go over

551
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: to the tight end position, Brian, and let's talk about

552
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: the offseason winners. There. We begin in Dallas with Dalton Schultz.

553
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,239
Speaker 1: We already talked about Ceedee Lamb. We talked about all

554
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: the receiving options that are now gone at Dalton Schaltz

555
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 1: stands to benefit as well. Yeah, we pretty much alluded

556
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 1: to this already. You said he could, uh, Dalton Schultz,

557
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: that is, could easily be the top option in the

558
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,479
Speaker 1: passing game after Ceedee Lamb. And I'm with you, And

559
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: Schultz wasn't the second option last year. He was. I

560
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 1: would still call him third behind Ceedee Lamb and Mary Cooper,

561
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: but uh, he was one of three tight ends with

562
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: at least eight hundred yards and eight touchdowns. The other

563
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: two were Travis Kelsey and Mark Andrews. A. Yeah, he

564
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: was also one of six tight ends the top one

565
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: hundred targets and finished third and catches at the position

566
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: as the third, maybe even fourth option in the past game,

567
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: probably at least of the third, and like you've said

568
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 1: a couple of times already might be the second uh

569
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott's second option in the past game. So big

570
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: time winning for Dalton Schultz and Blake Jarwin. I don't

571
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's even in the league anymore.

572
00:30:55,600 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: He's gone, he's on. He had I remember we talked

573
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 1: about this when we're doing like divisional reviews. He had

574
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: a hip injury where no football player had suffered it

575
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: or returned from it, return from it only like hockey

576
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 1: is like an athlete come back from this kind of

577
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: hip injury. So that sucks for Jarwin and in Dallas.

578
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: The way hockey players use their hips all the time,

579
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: use it to skate, you get hip checked, you get

580
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, there's all kinds of things that's good, that's

581
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: weird that hopefully hopefully Jarwin can skate. That's that's the case. Um,

582
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 1: you put this on my list, and I'm a little

583
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: bit hesitant to even go here, but Travis Kelsey is

584
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 1: an offseason winner. I don't necessarily agree as much as

585
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: you do on this, but I will I will. I'll

586
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 1: give it a slim pickens a tight end. So he's

587
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: thirty two years old, which doesn't make him dead. But

588
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: Kansas City did not acquire via draft or free agency

589
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: or anything else, any other tight end or any air

590
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: apparent to Travis Kelsey, so presumably he'll have the same

591
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 1: fairly massive role that he had before. Of course, you know,

592
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill leaves, but for me, this is a push

593
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: on Tyree Kill leaving. Sure, he's not gonna be siphoning

594
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: off all the time touches that Tyreek Hill had, and

595
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 1: sky Moore is not going to get all of those touches,

596
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: but he also doesn't have Hill to open up the

597
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: middle of the field like he used to mean. Tyreek

598
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 1: Hill running out of the slot and dashing through the

599
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: middle of the field was pulling linebackers and safeties away

600
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: from Travis Kelsey, and you'll lose that a little bit.

601
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,959
Speaker 1: So I really, in my heart, I believe there's more,

602
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: just like a push off season for Travis Kelsey, but

603
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: I think some could see it as an upsider. I

604
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 1: just think Mahomes will lean on him a little more

605
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,719
Speaker 1: than usual. He certainly has leaned on him a lot already. Now,

606
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: Kelsey's ADPs tight in one right now, one round, almost

607
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: exactly one round ahead of Andrews. We've talked about, we

608
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: talked earlier about how the Ravens have very few other

609
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: places to go here. I think you can make a

610
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: case that Andrews is more of an off season winner

611
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: than Kelsey is. With the dearth of receiving options there,

612
00:32:54,560 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 1: who would you take first, Kelsey or Andrews? Really? I

613
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: know this isn't the answer you want, but it's neither.

614
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: I'd wait a little longer until I didn't take my book,

615
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: but if I had to, I mean, I would still

616
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: take Kelsey first. I'm on Andrews just be you know.

617
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 1: And I love Kelsey and I've got him in a

618
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: bajillion leagues last year, you know, the last several years,

619
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: I've lobbied for people to take him in the first round. Um.

620
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: The thing with Andrews his like he had a great season,

621
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 1: but he had like his monster games. We all with

622
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley. I think not Lamar Jackson. Yeah, he did

623
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: have a get a third amount of based on Kelsey

624
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: had like a six week long last year. That rattled

625
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 1: me just a little bit, and it just started to

626
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: plan at the seed, like do I want to get

627
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: out a year early on Andrews or sorry on Kelsey?

628
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: I want to you know, do I want to be

629
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 1: the guy? Do I don't do? I you know, I'd

630
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 1: rather get out of year early. This could certainly be

631
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: the year that the torch is passed from Kelsey to Andrews.

632
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: But no, Kyle Pitts is gonna snatch that torch and

633
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 1: away with it. I could, but I listened to the

634
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: show last week and I heard you and Matt I

635
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: have to take a jab at me and Kyle Pitts

636
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: and it wasn't appreciated. But I still like you guys.

637
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: I guess thank you. Cole Commet currently tight ends seventeen.

638
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 1: You believe he is an offseason winner. Yeah. It kind

639
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 1: of just goes back to the Darnell Mooney discussion. We

640
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,720
Speaker 1: just had um commit probably going to be the second

641
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 1: option in the passing games. Zero touchdowns last year not

642
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: a good thing. But Jimmy Graham had three touchdowns. He's

643
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 1: he's gone, I would hope. So I'm not confirmed that.

644
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: I'm just assuming he has gone. But Commit one of

645
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: nine tight ends with at least sixty catches six hundred

646
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: yards and no no, no threat came in at the

647
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 1: wide receiver position, and it's it's gonna be Commit in

648
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: the in the red zone. I would think he's gonna

649
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 1: be the top option for justin fields, not saying that

650
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 1: being the red zone a lot in Chicago, but at

651
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: tight end fifteen right now, I think there is top

652
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 1: ten upside with Commett if you if you can see

653
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: the volume, and I think he will. David and Joeku

654
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 1: from the Browns currently tied in number twenty two, an

655
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 1: average draft position. He got the offseason franchise tag, which

656
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: I did not see coming at the beginning of the

657
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: off season, and it suggests that Ninjoku's spike in usage

658
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: last year probably not a fluke. They let Austin Hooper

659
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: go in the in the off season, and Harrison Bryant

660
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: just didn't develop in year two last season. Still plenty

661
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: of turmoil among Cleveland's quarterback positions, which makes me a

662
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: little bit worried about in Joko and then in Joeku

663
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 1: has just been incredibly untrustworthy and unpredictable as a fantasy

664
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 1: factor throughout his entire career. You're really banking on him

665
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 1: becoming a lock number one, beating out Harrison Bryant, not

666
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 1: being part of a rotation, and becoming a predictable fantasy producer,

667
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 1: none of which has ever been the case that throughout

668
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 1: his career. Cleveland's got to give him that chance. This

669
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: year they took him in the first round back. Yeah,

670
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 1: and he's he's only he's gonna turn twenty six this summer.

671
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: He's still going. Yes, I mean, they should have done

672
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: this a couple of years ago. They never shouldn't even

673
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: signed Austin Hooper in my opinion, So yeah, this is

674
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: the time to give in joekup hundred targets at least,

675
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: and she's a hundred I take it. How about That's

676
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 1: that even that would be a massive uptick for him,

677
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: But we'd take that too. Um. I think that's it's

678
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: I think it's a little stretch, but I would. I'd

679
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 1: like to see him do it. They paid there, they

680
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: franchised him, so obviously they plan to use him. You

681
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: don't franchise a guy that's not an integral part of

682
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: your offensive scheme, at least in theory. Next week losers,

683
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 1: the big goal losers, Well we'll talk that through next week.

684
