Man, Alright, So here we go Thursday Night, 15 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: Green Baby versus Seattle. A lot of folks worried about 16 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers versus very stout Seattle defense. Absolutely, Aaron Rodgers 17 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: and Jordy Nelson owners are like, get in there, get 18 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: in there defense. Not on that Deepen steps out of 19 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: bounds at the two yard line ensuing play fantasy relevant 20 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 1: players have no Eddie Lacy girl, that's a thief right there. 21 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: John Ko's back dive seven to three Packers second quarter, 22 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: Seahawks Russell Wilson, Fine was gonna look at that, look 23 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: at that. This Neward had a day. Percy Harvin did 24 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: that one right there for thirty three yards under three minutes. 25 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: He's got big things in his future. Absolutely a little 26 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: read option read options. That's the one thing on offense. 27 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: I couldn't stand so hard to the heap in there. 28 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: That was lock it there with a thirty three yard touchdown, 29 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,559 Speaker 1: grabbing the Seahawks lead seventeen and tenant half him. Coach 30 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: Hashted got him. Third quarter, Packers are from their old 31 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: ten yard line. That was Michael Bennett turning the corner, 32 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: stripping the ball out. Derek the safety Blagga did get 33 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: injured in that game. The tennse Sea I love this one. 34 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: Fourth quarter? Who said I was over the top? Who 35 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: said I couldn't do it again? Jersey was being ripped 36 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: off a dozen matters in their dashing in three yard 37 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: touchdown twenty nine tense Seahawks. Then Hacker's next possession Rogers 38 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: with a little bit of fantasy redemption fives Randall cop 39 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: three yard touchdown Hackers failed going for two trail to 40 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: sixteen under three minutes to play on fourth and one. 41 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: Wilson another full back score. This is Derek Coleman. Ulla 42 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: is getting it done in this Sracuse guy right there, 43 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: Basketball that I'm still not putting them on my fantasy team. 44 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: Unless your team has an ineligible fullback position, maybe Derek 45 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: Coleman will be a good fit there. Seahawks win thirty 46 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: six or sixteen all r. Let's take a look at 47 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: the final numbers here in terms of fantasy. Russell Wilson, 48 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: you know, I feel bad for our producer Hyde them. 49 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: He asked me before the game. He said, hey, man, 50 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: should I play Russell Wilson over? Aaron Rodger said, no, 51 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: of course not. Why would you say that? Why would 52 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,399 Speaker 1: you do you play your stars? Week one? Aote from you? Man? 53 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: But you're still on the show. I mean, you can't 54 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 1: be that bad at you. If you ask Twitter, I 55 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: shouldn't be on the show, Twitter and listen. It was 56 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: a beautiful game plan laid out by Seattle. A tough 57 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: start for the Packers Aaron Rodgers, I mean really struggled 58 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: nine and a half fantasy points in standard scoring leagues. 59 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: From a fantasy perspective, is there a reason to worry 60 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: up bar No, There's no reason to worry about Aaron 61 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: Rodgers because when you look at Aaron Rodgers, the type 62 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: of production he's gonna put up, He's gonna put up 63 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: big numbers. But going up against the Seattle Seahawks just 64 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: wasn't fair. As on the roll Loud, I mean, look 65 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, Efen is going to continue to do this. 66 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: This secondary was able to mug and beat up that 67 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver crew for the Green Bay Packers. They were 68 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: able to acquly a lot of pressure. We saw Aaron 69 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: Rodgers going down getting sacked by Bennett. This is because 70 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 1: this defense they had on every level, They've got talent. 71 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: Not only that, the interception that he had he was 72 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: thrown to Jordian Nelson. Jordian Nelson actually got both hands 73 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: on the ball. That interception you can't put on airs. 74 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: This is the Seattle Seahawks in Seattle, I mean this 75 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: is on a different level defensively, We're talking eighty five 76 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: Bears level here. You just don't score fantasy points in 77 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: Seattle against this team. It does not we saw La Brees, 78 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: but do you have three or four inceptions in that game. 79 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: You just don't do it. You can't go into a 80 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: game even with a quarterback as good as Aaron Rodgers 81 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: and expecting to have a big time best defenses if 82 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: you can take an elite quarterback like Aaron Rodgers, who 83 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: is i mean arguably the best quarterback in the NFL 84 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: and shut him down like that. People depend many of 85 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. I mean that wasn't even in Seattle. 86 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: Yeah that's true. Uh, you know, a lot of folks 87 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: may have predicted that Aaron Rodgers in the passing attack, 88 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: was gonna have a down game, but a lot of 89 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: folks still believed in Eddie Lacey. A lot of folks 90 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: thought that Eddie Lacy was gonna play a very good game. Mike, 91 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: you came on this very program said I'm projecting that 92 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey is gonna have a pretty nice day even 93 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: against that Seattle front seven. It was tough sledding for him. Man. 94 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: I absolutely to projected him for like seven or eight points. 95 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: I don't think it was gonna be a huge game. 96 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: But what he did in this contest when he was 97 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: on the field, I actually liked when I saw he 98 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: ran hard, he looked good. John pensive line didn't do 99 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: many favors. And the thing that you're worried about now 100 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: is that he suffered the concussion, second concussion in a 101 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: year span. So now you have to go on the 102 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: waiver wire and pick up James Starks, get it next 103 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: week and ensure Lacey and Casey can't play in week two. 104 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: It's funny I say that James Starks had a great game. 105 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,239 Speaker 1: He he actually had more rushing yards than Eddie Lacy, 106 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: but he only had thirty seven yards on the ground 107 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: a week and then the week was good, I mean hard. 108 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and you know, I feel badly for the 109 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: the center, to the young sinner who had to go 110 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: up against Brandon me Bang. Of course, when you start 111 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: disrupting your disruptive interior, that messes up the running back game. 112 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: I mean, Rogie was already gone. Balaga got injured in 113 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: the middle of that game. Uh. Folks who think that 114 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: again that this is the offense that you're gonna see, 115 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: I mean, come on, they're they're gonna shore up that 116 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: offictive line a little bit as well. And I think 117 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: that defense, the Green Bay defense won't be as pliable 118 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: moving forward either. On the well, Jordy Nelson, here's a 119 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: guy a lot a lot of high expectations for Jordian Nelson. 120 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: Nine catches, eighty three yards. Again, Uh, there seemed to 121 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: be a pretty good chemistry between Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson. 122 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: Do you look for that to continue moving forward? On 123 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: park I do. I believe that Jordy Nelson is going 124 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: to continue to be productive throughout the rest of the season. 125 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: But as long as he's gonna go up against the 126 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks, he's gonna have his work cut out for him. 127 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: This is the most expensive secondary group in the NFL. 128 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: These guys have a lot of talent, and these guys 129 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: are big, they're physical. You take a guy like Cam Chancellor, 130 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: it looked like he had bad intent. Every time he 131 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: came up. He looked like he was trying to punish someone. 132 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: You don't think those wide receivers they smell that, they 133 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: hear that. Aaron Rodgers didn't even look towards Richard Sherman way, 134 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: I mean, totally ignored him throughout the entire game. So 135 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: when you can do that, when you can cut off 136 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: a half of the field because you have talent like 137 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: Richard Sherman, that makes it very hard. Jordy Nelson, he 138 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: wasn't able to do his thing because of the talent 139 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: there fabs. Randall cop had six catches for fifty eight 140 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown. But it's interesting when I watched 141 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: the actual game itself, it seemed like he was out 142 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: of sync with Aaron Rodgers. Is there a reason for concern? There? No, 143 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: not at all. And if ott of sync means I'm 144 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: getting in lovon fantasy points in a standard then I 145 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: am fine without. Okay, he got that late touchdown which 146 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: helped his fantasy appeal, and I like the fact that 147 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: he had six catches. He saw a lot of targets 148 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: in the contest, and I think that he could lead 149 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: this team in receptions. Yndal Cop is a guy I 150 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: think we all like. We all think he's gonna have 151 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: a big season in contract year Aaron Rodgers quarterback, There's 152 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: nothing to worry about. This is a good start Randall Cobb. 153 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: From a fantasy perspect I do want to say, though, 154 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: I did think he got lucky on that because there 155 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: was a miscommunication between the linebackers on coverage. There and 156 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: that's what calls it. And I know he's still got 157 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: the points there, but I'm saying from from the X 158 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: and OS perspective, and you look at this, I mean, 159 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb didn't have his best fantasy game. It's still 160 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: more to come from. But the good thing is he 161 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: doesn't have to worry about the Seahawks. There you go, 162 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, speaking of they looked fabulous. Man Russell Wilson, 163 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: Percy Harvin, Marshawn Lynch, these guys were stars, absolutely impressive performances. 164 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: And again, uh Man, Russell Wilson a guy. Uh he 165 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: just looked fabulous. I've written many words about Russell Wilson. 166 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be a top five fantasy quarterback 167 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: this season. It's a lofty projection, but from what I 168 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: saw yesterday, I don't think I'm too far off the mark. 169 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: Nine hundred and nine yards, two touchdowns, granted to two 170 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: non fantasy relevant players, but still a very overall great line. Akbard, 171 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: do you kind of see that upside as well? You know, 172 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: let me say this, he put an outstanding game when 173 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: you look at it from the football perspective. Great game. 174 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: He was assistant. But when you look at it from 175 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 1: a fantasy perspective, Russell Wilson, what you saw in this 176 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 1: game yesterday was really all that you're gonna get. He's 177 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: an eighteen to nineteen four point fantasy guy. He's not 178 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: gonna give you those big numbers. In his entire career 179 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: so far, He's only put up to three games, so 180 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: you know, you don't expect now. He's got the ability 181 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: to do some rushing, rushing and those kind of things. 182 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: The read option will help him that, but I don't 183 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: know that his his production is gonna go up that much. 184 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: I think we saw the best that we're gonna see. 185 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: Maybe a little bit more from Russell will What I 186 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: love about Russell Wilson from a fantasy perspective and Fabs 187 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: you can chime in here. Uh. I love the consistency. 188 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: Last year, Andrew Luck was the fourth high scoring quarterback, 189 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 1: and to me, I don't I don't remember him ever 190 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: having one of those game breaker type days, but always 191 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 1: consistently in that range. Russell Wilson seems like that kind 192 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 1: of quarterback to me as well. At home, for sure, 193 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: there are some games on the road last year we 194 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: had a few hiccups and you're thinking, oh, man, I 195 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 1: know at the end of last year he was not 196 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: good from a fantasy perspective, But if you're talking about 197 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: a QB one or a high QB two, a guy 198 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: you're playing the matchups with, especially when this said home, 199 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson can be a very valuable asset. Mars Shawn 200 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: Lynch twenty carries, a hundred and ten yards, two touchdowns. 201 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,959 Speaker 1: The dude absolutely a pretty good alright. He looked pretty good. 202 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: And I've got to give credit to my boy Michael Robinson, 203 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: who broke the hold out story of Marshawn Lynch. I 204 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: was in touch with Mike rob throughout training camp and 205 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: he told me that Marshawn is mad. He's looked like 206 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: he's motivated. The Seahawk Streets had a couple running backs 207 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: in the last couple of round the last couple of seasons, 208 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: but you know what, this is an old school running back. 209 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: Shawn Lynch is like Earl Campbell. He is a bruiser. 210 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: And the fact that he had three hundred carries on 211 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: average in the last three years, it didn't scare me 212 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: because listen, school running back, he likes to carry the 213 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: football and I don't see there being a problem with 214 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch. If you dropped him in the first round, 215 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: you will be smiling all the way to win this week. 216 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: Not one game does not make a season. It looked pretty. 217 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna agree with you because 218 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: what I saw from I usually look for certain keys 219 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: during the game. What I saw from Marshall, there's no 220 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: slowing down. His body is not taxed, He's not tapped 221 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: out yet. He is gonna be able to do this 222 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: throughout the entire season. How about Percy Harvin? I mean 223 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: what a line? Seven reception, seven receptions for fifty nine yards, 224 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: four carries for forty one yards, a hundred scrimmage yards 225 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: hashtag jet sweep. I mean, how many times they run 226 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: this play? He looked absolutely fabulous. To me, he was 227 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: the most impressive fantasy player on the field yesterday because 228 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 1: of his a DP and he he he again, we're 229 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: talking in relation to his a DP because Marshawn Lynch 230 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: still being drafted as a top seven guy, Percy Harvin 231 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 1: much lower. He looked like the guy from Minnesota that 232 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: we all fell in love with from a fantasy respective, 233 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: and he has got the kind of upside where he 234 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: can be a number two wide receiver. I don't know 235 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: if he's gonna be a one. The one thing that 236 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: still worries me, and it's the thing that worried me 237 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: throughout the preseason, is that if they use him this much, 238 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: I just hope he stays healthy. But you have to 239 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 1: use him this much because he's an offensive weapon. You 240 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: can see they use him in the passing game, They'll 241 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: they'll use them in the run game, They'll utilize him 242 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: anywhere they can because he's that versatile. He's that good, 243 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: and I say, for fantasy owners with Percy Harvin, you 244 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: have to ride them until that wave just eventually crashes 245 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 1: out and he gets whatever. I don't want to put 246 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: that jinks on him, but I think Percy Harvin, yes, 247 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna continue to see this type of dynamic play. 248 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: There's no answer, Keith. There's not a guy out there 249 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: on defense who can keep up with his talent. I mean, 250 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 1: for heaven sakes, we saw him slip so much because 251 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: he's so fast, you can't understand them beat himself. That's 252 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: how you were. That's pretty good stuff, all right. For more. 253 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 1: Analystored over to Marcus Grant and Adam Rank, who have 254 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: the way his headlines. Guys, thank you James. I am 255 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: Marcus Grant. This man here to my left is Adam Rank, 256 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: and we are getting you caught up with all of 257 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: the latest headlines. We're gonna start down in Carolina. We're 258 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: on Thursday. Panthers coach Ron Rivera's hold reporters at quarterback. 259 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: Cam Newton is on pace to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, 260 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: but it will be a game time decision. Worst words 261 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 1: and the ny Lexicon. Rivero was quoted as saying, Kim 262 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: wants to play, but we have to be smart. This 263 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: is a marathon, not a sprint. The good news, Cam 264 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: was a full participant in Friday's practice. He's officially listed 265 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: as questionable for Sunday. The bad news he plays one 266 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 1: of those late games. Rank if you have him on 267 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: your roster, how you handle him well that he isn't 268 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: one of those dreaded late games. But the good news 269 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: is that Carson Palmer plays late on Monday night. He's 270 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 1: available in a ton of fantasy leagues, So if you're 271 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: looking for an option to kind of back yourself up 272 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: to have Cam Newton if he's not ready to go 273 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: to which to me would be a surprise. But Carson 274 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: Palmer just have them waiting in the wings. I like 275 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: his matchup. He's a pretty good option there, so not 276 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: too much of a concern. Just you know, usually you 277 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: roll with one quarterback, but in this insince, just pick 278 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: up Carson Palula. You're good place. It's always the key. 279 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: NFL Media inside aer Ian Rappaport reports that Patriots tied in. 280 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski is expected to play on Sunday. However, his 281 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: snaps will likely be limited as Gronk returns to full strength. 282 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: Bronk says he's ready to play. His coach Bill Belichick 283 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: kind of disagree. Rank If you are a fantasy owner 284 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: and you've got drunk, what do you do considering his 285 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: snaps could be limited this week? Come on, Balochick, let 286 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: him play. Why you have a little fun, loosen up? 287 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: You know. Gronkowski says he's ready to go. That's good 288 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: enough for me. I let him play. But if I 289 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: drafted Rob Gronkowski, that means I'm stepping into the danger zone. Anyways, 290 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: John playing him, I don't care. Look, you know, Rob 291 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: Gronkowski at is better than a lot of the curtain 292 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: jerkers at the end of the card at a percent. 293 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: So I'm rolling in with. All he needs to do 294 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: is get down to the red zone one time. You 295 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: know Tom Brady's looking for him. When he gets down there, 296 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: you'll get one touchdown. You're good. I don't rank living dangerously. 297 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: Gotta love it. Moving to the desert. Ian Rappaport also 298 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: reporting the Cardinals running back Andre Ellington underwent an m 299 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: r I on his foot Thursday. Ellington is not expected 300 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: to require surgery, but his status for Monday night's game 301 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: against the Chargers is unclear after he missed practice on Friday. 302 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: Ellington was a pre season darling here on NFL Fantasy Live. 303 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: If you drafted the second year back, what sort of 304 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: precautions should you take heading into that game Monday night. 305 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: What I want you to do right now is go 306 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: pick up Jonathan Dwyer. Hit pause, We'll wait for you. 307 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show. I'm glad you're able to 308 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: get Jonathan Dwyer. He is available in a lot of 309 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: leagues right now. He's the guy you just gotta have 310 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: there just because you can wait till Monday night to 311 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: see what's gonna happen and realize the real big practice 312 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: day is gonna be on Saturday. If he doesn't practice Saturday, 313 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: then it's full on panic mode. Then you can find 314 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: your other options. Hopefully you have some guys on your roster, 315 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: but go ahead and pick up Jonathan Dwyer right now, 316 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: just in case. If it is extended. The Jonathan Dwyer 317 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: looks to be the guy who will be taking over 318 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: that role in Arizona. But what it could really mean 319 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: is a lot of passing, and that means Larry Fitzgerald 320 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: who's gone, Michael Floyd, who you probably draft a little 321 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: bit higher. John Brown, that's a good guy. Go pick 322 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: him up from John Brown. More running back news sex 323 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: in his head. Coach Bill O'Brien's old reporters earlier this 324 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: week that he plans to ride running back Arian Foster 325 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: versus Washington on Sunday. All right, Frank Foster is coming 326 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: off back surgery. Always concerning how much do you believe 327 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: he gets a full workload this week? What do you 328 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: mean back surgery is concerning? I thought it was the 329 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: new spring nank whatever, you know. But it's a tough 330 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: situation because if you drafted Arian Foster. He probably fell 331 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: to you in the second round, maybe even the third. 332 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: I've seen some crazy things happened drafts, but you gotta 333 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: play him. He's got a great matchup against the Redskins, 334 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: so I would roll him out there. I kind of 335 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: believe Bill O'Brien. He's got a quarterback he doesn't trust 336 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: because he traded for Ryan Mallett, which shows me he 337 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: doesn't want to throw the ball a lot, So he's 338 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: probably gonna run. He's gonna run him as much as 339 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: possibly can during this, you know, the first couple of 340 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: weeks while he's still healthy, it's why not take advantage 341 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: of it. It's like one of those things like, hey, 342 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: we got a free room, we might as well stay there, 343 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: you know, and like the kind of weird thing you 344 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: wake up in palm springing, What were you doing? It's 345 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: like being on vacation for his wife. Receiver Michael Crabtree 346 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: was limited in practice Thursday due to a calf injury, 347 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: but he told reporters he feels good to go for 348 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: Sunday showdown with the Cowboys. Grabs is now more than 349 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: a year and moved from that nasty killing injury he had. 350 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: How do you feel about him in a game that 351 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: could turn into attract me. Yeah, I really like this 352 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: because Colin Kaepernick is a better quarterback when Michael Crabtree 353 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: is on the field. So I really like this into 354 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: it and I like the matchup to The Cowboys are 355 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: not good on defense, which means the forty Niners are 356 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: gonna be able to move the ball almost at will. 357 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: And the forty Niners defense is a little bit more 358 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: dinged up as they've been in years. You know, it's 359 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: been a long time since you can remember back to 360 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: when the forty Niners weren't quite so formidable on defense, 361 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: which means shootout, which means there's gonna be a lot 362 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 1: of points. But there's actually one receiver. There's one receiver 363 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: I really love from this game. But you know what 364 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 1: you gotta stick around for, like dislike to get that 365 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: one that's called a tease. So is this coming up? 366 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 1: What happens when the forefathers of fantasy football get together 367 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 1: to do a draft? Nowadays? What keeps on coming back 368 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: for more and where fantasy football is headed? This is 369 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: the year you draft, play and win from anywhere.

Fantasy football has changed a lot 373 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: since it was invented over a half century ago, but 374 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: not at the Greater Oakland Pigskin Procrastinators League, the original league, 375 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 1: where pencil and paper is still preferred over a computer 376 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: and meeting up for the annual draft is absolutely mandatory. 377 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: Fifty two years after the first ever fantasy football season, 378 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 1: the Greater Oakland Pigskin Prognosticators League lives on Bobby read 379 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: to see you. Welcome to the second draft. Fifty two 380 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: years the original league still feels the presence of the 381 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: larger than life figure who passed away twenty three years ago, 382 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: founder Bill Winkenbach. This group of people, it's like an 383 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: extended family. The either New Wink originally or a friend 384 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 1: of somebody at New Wink. Some of the sons are 385 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: in these things. In fact, my son will be Enna 386 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: this year. My dad came. The sport is to come here. 387 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: Dis draft was always a special time of the year 388 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: with my father. To have that with him is something 389 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: that ties us together. John will take Doug Martin temperment. 390 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 1: I find it very special and what makes the game 391 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 1: so fun today is the same as it was in 392 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 1: the early years. Since I joined in seventy four, there 393 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: have been very few changes. The Goppel rules now are 394 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: pretty much the same as they were back then. Only 395 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 1: scoring is what counts. Yardage doesn't matter. I've been in 396 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: this scalpel Wig for over forty years and it has 397 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: changed a little bit him. I think maybe eventually it 398 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: will get to the quite where the younger generation, if 399 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: you had a computerized sort to more simple. But I 400 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: think we're getting together will ever change. It's just a 401 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: personal pride of playing the game. It's like almost every 402 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 1: owner I've ever seen here, they just keep coming back, 403 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: keep going back until they just can't come back anymore. 404 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: From eight original teams in a northern California basement to 405 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: a billion dollar worldwide industry, the story of fantasy football 406 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: cannot be told without the Greater Oakland Pigskin brognosticators lead. 407 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: It's like a mom and pop operation that has stayed 408 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: true to itself the whole time, special because of the 409 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 1: tradition and the longevity up and I've always enjoyed being 410 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: able to say that I'm in the oldest football league 411 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: that there is in fantasy football, multi generational fantasy. How 412 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: cool is That's awesome? And it's so cool to see that. 413 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: You know, the older guys there who still have the 414 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: pen in the paper, and then the younger generation on 415 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: the computers checking out their rankings and their whole list 416 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: of players. Just crave. I love that whole specialist touchdowns 417 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: touchdowns only that that makes it pretty different and a 418 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: lot of good stuff there. The one thing I really 419 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,959 Speaker 1: like too is they do it in person, and everybody 420 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: should be in at least one draft, at least one 421 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: draft where you're there in person. We do that. I 422 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: do that with my buddies, no doubt about it, no doubt. 423 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: I love the fact that touch down was only a 424 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: change your strategy. Quarterbacks are huge, hugely. Peyton Manning is 425 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: just he was legendary. John draft him, by the way. 426 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: That was Matt money Smith narrating that piece there for us, 427 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: his sweet dull set tones.

Guys, 443 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: let's put some of the fantasy's top guns heading to 444 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: head find out who's gonna have the better season this year. 445 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: And we'll start with a young gun versus the old 446 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: wiley vet, Andrew Luck versus Tom Brady. If you look 447 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: at their season numbers from last year, as you can see, 448 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: Tom Brady had more passing yards, but the total touchdowns 449 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck's favor, and quite frankly, the fantasy points. That's 450 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: all that matters. More fantasy points for Andrew Luck over 451 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, but we know Tom Brady used to be 452 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: an absolute statistical monster FABS. According to eight A p 453 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: the people are picking Luck to have a bigger season 454 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: than Brady. Is that a good call? The people are 455 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: very smart. People are very smart. He finished fourth and 456 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: Fantasy points last year among quarterbacks, and he's got upside, 457 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: and I love guys with upside. He has not hit 458 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: his statistical ceiling yet. Brady hit that way back in 459 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven weeks huge year. He hasn't in 460 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,360 Speaker 1: his ceiling yet. There's no question this guy can throw 461 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: for five thousand yards in this league. There's no question 462 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: about it. He's never thrown for thirty touchdowns. He can 463 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: hit that too. I like Brady this year, don't get 464 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: me wrong, but he is too tied to Rob Gronkowski's health. 465 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: If Rod goes down, if there's any issues with gron 466 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 1: tom Brady's value drops exponentially. Andrew Luck is the guy 467 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: to draft more upside. He can run it with the football. 468 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 1: He's my guy. I I disagree with that. I like 469 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, and I think you saw some of that. 470 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: He saw the turnovers last year for Tom Brady. I 471 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: think a lot of that. I had to do with 472 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: the young wide receivers that he had a lot of 473 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 1: the drop balls, miscommunication that's going to happen. But when 474 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: you look at what he's surrounded what with He's not 475 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 1: just surrounded by Rob Gronkowski. He's got a better running 476 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: back then the Indianapolis could check. He's got a better 477 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: tight end. That's a double check. You look at this 478 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 1: wide receiver, Julian Elm better than t Y Hilton. That's 479 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: a chase towards Tom Brady. He's going to do his things. 480 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: T Y Hilton had two great games last year and 481 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: now everybody wants it just laud him like he's the 482 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: second coming. But here's the thing too, This is the 483 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: big thing for me, is that they saw what Peyton 484 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: Manning did last year, and tom Brady and Belichick have 485 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: a lot of pride. They're gonna come out huge this year. 486 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 1: Trust me. Tom Brady has a monster revenge factor Brady. 487 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: But I just think Luck has more upside. I like it. 488 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: Let's talk running back. Jamal Charles versus Matt Forte, k 489 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: C versus shot Down Hello. I mean two very similar 490 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: players in terms of their versatility running and catching the ball. 491 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: But last year and then Charles just ruled supreme the 492 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: highest scoring running back in the game. And we could 493 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: talk about the numbers that we want, but the bottom 494 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 1: line is this fantasy points per game. Jamal Charles twenty 495 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 1: pots per game last year and he was awesome down 496 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: this stretch man. So who do you like better? Off Bar? 497 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: You know, I think this one was a close one, 498 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go with Jamal Charles. Jamal Charles to me, 499 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: is everything for the Kansas City Chiefs. You think about 500 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: the type of quarterback that he's with with Alex Smith. 501 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 1: Alex Smith loves to do the dump off. He's a 502 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: check down Charlie. He's going to find Jamal Charles. He 503 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: was their top receiver, he was their top running back, 504 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: so he means more to their offense than quote I 505 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,119 Speaker 1: like poteting that offense, but I'm not to go with 506 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: j C. Well. The one thing that concerns me about 507 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: Charles is all the movement on the offensive line. That's 508 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: gotta concern me. So that's why I shift over to 509 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: Matt Forte, a guy who really started to port on 510 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: at the end of the last season. He had at 511 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: least a hundred scrimmage yards in twelve of his last 512 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 1: fifteen games as this Bears offense really started to click. 513 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: And I understand Jamal Charles is the number one guy 514 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: there in Kansas City, but that's who defensive coordinators are 515 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: focusing on. Your A DC going up against the Bears, 516 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 1: who are gonna stop Randon Marshall, Alshon, Jeffrey Martellis Bennet, 517 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: all these guys, all these pieces. You gotta put players 518 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: all over the field that allows map Forte to get loose. 519 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 1: And I just feel like this is gonna be season. 520 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 1: Had that opportunity last year with Jamal Charles and they 521 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: didn't succeed. Differencies, the differences that all right, let's move 522 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: on a wide receiver. Let's compare it to Marius versus Daz. Uh. 523 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: You pretty much can't go wrong with either guy. Listen. 524 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: Then they have thirty touchdowns between the two of them 525 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 1: this year. But here's last year's numbers. As you can see, 526 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 1: very similar in terms of receptions. Uh, obviously an edge 527 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: in yardage for to Marius, he's got a Peyton Manning 528 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: throw in the rock. But man again, very very similar, 529 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 1: especially terms of fantasy output. Um, which guy do you 530 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: like better? For teams? Fabs. I've going with des Briant, 531 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: but this is a close, This is very close. Dez 532 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,880 Speaker 1: is someone who I absolutely think could actually have more 533 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: Fantasy points than Calvin Johnson. Okay, uh, you know I 534 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: like that, but you know I'm gonna have to go 535 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: with Demaris Thomas because I think Demarius Thomas is the 536 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 1: better wide receiver. And think about this, the fact that 537 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 1: they lose the Wells Welker for four weeks, that's big 538 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: for for Paid Manning. That's big for Damarius Thomas because 539 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna get a lot more looks and when he 540 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 1: comes down to it, he's a more reliable wide receiver. 541 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: I think, just flat out talent wise, size wise, he 542 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 1: has Dez Bryant FABS. You've been so big on Tony 543 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: Romo because again, the defense bad. They gotta check that 544 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,640 Speaker 1: ball around. Uh. Obviously that's gonna mean some pretty big 545 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 1: numbers for Dez Bryant as well, no question about it. 546 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: And look at the offensive coordinator who's coming in Scott 547 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: Lanny Tory, Holt, Randy Moss, Calvin Johnson last year and 548 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,360 Speaker 1: now Dez Bryant. That is an absolute great, great Fantasy 549 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: wide receiving group. And This is gonna be a team 550 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: that has to throw the ball to come from behind. 551 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: Tony is going to be awful. Tony Roll might have 552 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: a game where he throws seventy balls. I'd love to 553 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: see every game seventy times. That would be fantastic for 554 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: fantasy owners. But this is my guy. But listen, guys, 555 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you know to various Thomas days, Forte Charles, 556 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: throw him up in the air where you get it comes. 557 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: He's got Peyton Manning. All right, there you go? And 558 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: who was Josh? That was? Comparisons presented by S A. P. 559 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: And still to come, which sleeping giants will awake this 560 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: weekend to leave you to fancy glory. You don't want 561 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: to miss our list of top sleepers for week one. 562 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: This is NFL Fancy lie all right, Welcome back to 563 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Life, presented by bos James Kell here with 564 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: Marcus grant akbar Baja Biamila and sitting right next to me, 565 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: he's the Hall of Famer Michael Fabiano. Right. You can 566 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: always send any of us you're fantasy related tweets. Find 567 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: us on Twitter at NFL Fantasy. But let's get your 568 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: reset here. Packers and Seahawks kicked off the season last night, 569 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: and a lot of folks worried about this man Aaron 570 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: Rodgers versus that stout Seattle defense, and for a good 571 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: reason apparently. First quarter fantasy studs all over the field. 572 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: But it's big old John come just like right from 573 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 1: Lacey Verry Packers early second quarter. What is this a 574 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: little read option? Yes, sir, just freeze everybody there. Nobody 575 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: moves Uburn Ricardo Lockett for a thirty three yard touchdown. 576 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: Seahawks at seventeen to ten. At halftime, locking with a 577 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: nice little touchdown dance as well. Fourth quarter, Seahawks pulling away. 578 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: You gonna jerse yourself. Some skiles march on, ripping jerseys, 579 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: but still getting into the end zone his second score 580 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: of the game. He finished with twenty four point four 581 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: fantasy points and the Seahawks go on to win six. 582 00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: Just He's like, man, that Lynch is pretty good, pretty 583 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: good player. Russell Wilson alscourt Aaron Rodgers eighteen points to 584 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: nine points. That's a little bit rough, especially considering their 585 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 1: ADPs where you're draft Aaron Rodgers, etcetera, etcetera. Alright, we 586 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: we've talked about this game at NASEA. Folks, if we can, 587 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: let's talk about some players with underrated Week one matchups. 588 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna start with you fams. We like people see 589 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners defense and they get scared, 590 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 1: they get scarred. Right is defense without Navarro Bowman, without 591 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: Alden Smith. Start Tony Romo. This is a great matchup. 592 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: I know they have this history of being this fantastic defense, 593 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: especially in the last couple of years. This is not 594 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: the same defense. It's a patchwork unit right now. And 595 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, well, their defense is even worse by a mile, 596 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: which makes Tony Romo is gonna throw the ball a lot. 597 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: This is a good matchup for Romo and for Dez 598 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: Bryant Jason Witten as well. Let's row into Marco Murray, 599 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: start them all. Marcus Grant talked to me about the 600 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: running back Pierre Thomas in PT brewser at a Pay 601 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: that he's gonna be on the road this week, and 602 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: I know that overall, you looked at his numbers against 603 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: the Falcons, they're not particularly eye popping, but his last 604 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: couple of games in Atlanta eighty five or more scrimmage 605 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: yards in those and he's the change of pace back 606 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: right now, mark Ingram is the guy who's gonna get 607 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: the start. He's the guy that I think a lot 608 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: of defenses are checking for Thomas to kind of come 609 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: in and there's a third down back catch some passes 610 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: out of the backfield. I think his value this year 611 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: more as a receiver and as a run almost a 612 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: must start in a PPR league. Yes, got it all right? 613 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: A park can talk to me about Are you really 614 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: gonna talk to me me about Brian Heartline? Man, Yeah, this 615 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: is a sneaky one here. When you think about Brian 616 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: hart the last couple of years, thousand yards seasons, I mean, 617 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: he can do it. He has that production. But he's 618 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: going up against the Newingland Patriots. I know you have 619 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: reasonable concern that this matchup doesn't look good for Brian Hardline, 620 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: But when I look at how they're going to play 621 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: Drell Reevers, more than likely he'll be matched up with, 622 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: of course Mike Wallace. They'll move him around something. But 623 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: I think Brian hard Line and Bill Laser's offense, they're 624 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: gonna start off real easy. They're gonna start off with 625 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: the intermediate stuff, and that's where Brian hart On when 626 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: he's matched up against it, Denard, I think that's where 627 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: he will succeed and he'll get some of those sneaky 628 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: fantasy points. Don't trip on on Brian Hardlong all right, 629 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: I like it. How about fabs Tennessee kendall Right? You 630 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: know a lot of folks don't know about kendall right? 631 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: Can you educate the people? Over ninety catches over a 632 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: thousand yards? Tilly scored a couple of touchdowns last year. 633 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: And everyone's talking about Justin Hunter, including me, and I 634 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: love his upside, but kinda writes the best fantasy receiver 635 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: in Tennessee. He's playing on the road in Kansas City, 636 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: and that defense has question marks in the defensive backfield. 637 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: Remember Brandon Flowers, he's gone their starting corps. Marcus Cooper, 638 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: Ron Parker. I really think Kenda Wright is gonna be 639 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: able to exploit that and put up some pretty good 640 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: fantasy totals. Marcus Grant, You're not scarred over Ladarius Green? 641 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: You like Antonio Gates this week? I do, And I 642 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: know Faves talked about the Niner defense and the fear 643 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 1: that they bring, and I feel the same way about 644 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: the Cardinals defense. People look at them, and they look 645 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: at Patrick Peterson and Tyron Matthew and they get a 646 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: little nervous. But when you look at what they were 647 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 1: against tight ends last year, they were awful. They gave 648 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: up the most receiving touchdowns in most points per game 649 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: fantasy wise, in most yards per game fantasy wise to side. 650 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: And and this year they're coming in with no Carlos Stansby, 651 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: no General Washington. The middle of that field is wide open. 652 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: Antaniel Gates might not be as good as he once 653 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 1: wasn't president, He'll be as good as he's ever been. 654 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: He's an oldie, but a goody. I think he'll do 655 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: good well in this game. Marcus Grant, did you just 656 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: drop a Toby Keith reference in the middle of alright? 657 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: Coming up on NFL Fantasy Live.

Coming up. It is 666 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: time for Like Dislike, presented by Corona. What's Up? Fantasy 667 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: enthusiast Adam Rank. Here Every week I present my likes 668 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: and dislikes in the world of sports, TV, movie, professional wrestling, 669 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: pretty much anything that strikes my fancy. Sometimes I even 670 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: like to talk fantasy football looking for you. One of 671 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: those times is right now, So let's start with my 672 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: first like of the week. Matt Ryan. I'm gonna go 673 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: ahead and put that this out here on Front Street. 674 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: The Falcons defense is awesome, Yes, awesome for us because 675 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: it gives up a ton of points, which means Ryan 676 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: throws the ball a lot as this game goes from 677 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: divisional rivalry to full on donny Brook. And just look 678 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 1: at Ryan's offensive weapons who are back, healthy and raring 679 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: to go. Julio he's healthy, Roddy he's healthy, Steven Jackson, 680 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: Heath all right, two out of three ain't bed. But 681 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: get Ryan into your lineup this week. A QB I 682 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: dislike as a starter is Cam Newton. I did like 683 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: his comparison to an old faithful Carla. Did you hear it. 684 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: He was all like, you fix the A C. Now 685 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: the carburetors out Dixon carburetor. You got a flat tired, 686 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 1: you fix it tired. Now you're ruins. Shield wiper doesn't work. 687 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: It's hilarious, except Cam you're twenty five. You sound like 688 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: an old man did a Panthers getting extended warranty on you. 689 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: The worst part Newton has a receiving corps that has 690 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,399 Speaker 1: about as much NFL experience as a salesman at your 691 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: local car dealership. Oh wait, I mean not the one 692 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 1: that Josh Gordon works out. But anyways, moving on to 693 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 1: a receiver I like, and it's and Kwan Bolden. You're 694 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,399 Speaker 1: one of those folks who likes to overreact to week 695 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 1: one to declare your whole season there's one and loss 696 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: after the first game. Well, Bolden is your guy. He 697 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: scored a touchdown in three consecutive Week one games and 698 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: seven and his eleven all time Week one game. So 699 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: this guy certainly knows how to make an entrance. So 700 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: if you want to feel good in Week one, go Bolden. 701 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 1: A receiver. I don't like this weakest have on Austin. 702 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,720 Speaker 1: I get it, he's one of the most explosive players 703 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: in the NFL right now. But I'm gonna take a 704 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: weight and see approach. I mean, you gotta like the 705 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: brain trust of Brian Schottenheimer and Sean Hill, duh. But 706 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna use a little bit more discretion here to 707 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: see if they can actually get the ball into Austin's hands. 708 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: And finally, I like forty Niners quarterback Colin Kaepernick. Listen, 709 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: I'm not too proud or too ashamed to admit this, 710 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: but sometimes I will play a full season and mad 711 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: don rookie mode just to see what kind of records 712 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 1: I can sit. Like, hey, look, let's see Brandon Lloyd 713 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: can be a pro bowler. Well, that's what playing the 714 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys d is gonna be like in real life. This season, 715 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: Kaepernick might just come out and be like, you know what, 716 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to Bowl Needy eight times just to 717 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: see what happens. So start every quarterback against the Cowboys 718 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 1: this season, and hey, look, here's some more of my 719 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: likes and dislikes for the week. Chris Johnson, love him, 720 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: Keith Miller, good, Tony Romo. On the other side of 721 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: that forty Niners game will be good. Terrence Williams if 722 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 1: he's ready to go. Start them on the dislike side, 723 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: Robert Griffin. The third that's Steven Jackson, Andre Johnson and seriously, 724 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: having two tight ends on your rocks, do not tweet 725 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: me one more time and ask if you should pick 726 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: up another roster. Just go with one and for more 727 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 1: by likes and dislikes, go to NFL dot com slash 728 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: like dislike for more.

I had the 737 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: fourth pick, and I went with running back and receiver 738 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: depending on the league. Can I ask him who he 739 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 1: went with the fourth pick? Fourth pick? I took Adrian 740 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: and then I took Calvin Johnson.

You know, 748 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: I got it obviously, I stuck behind Adrian, one of 749 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: the best to ever play the game, and uh, it 750 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: was tough. Coming from college where I had a ton 751 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: of carries. To get a carrier here and there was 752 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: what was hard. But I'm grateful for the opportunity that 753 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 1: I have now sitting behind Adrian Peterson, as you mentioned, 754 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: one of the greatest in the game.

You hear all those running backs who 826 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: got shut down by Frank Gore. This was my favorite 827 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: player growing up, Danny White, Dallas Cowboys' School. You know, 828 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:46,840 Speaker 1: I had to come with a guy that I respect 829 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 1: so much, Peyton Mannings Archie Manning son if in case 830 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: you didn't Archie Manning. So I'm gonna go with the 831 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: number one running back in fantasy football this season. That's right, 832 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: it's Matt for Tey my birthday buddy. So we're hanging out. Yes, 833 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 1: I'm a little older though about Freddy Morris for me, 834 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 1: like he gets enough respect. He's like him, He's such 835 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: a solid. All right, let's talk about sleepers. It's time 836 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 1: to look at Michael Fabiano's top sleepers for weeks. That theist. 837 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 1: Actually that would be Geno Smith. All right, mark Ingram there, 838 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller, Bernard Pierce, Steelers Defense, rounding out your top 839 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: ten sleepers for the week. FAM's talking about Shane Vereen. 840 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: I love me some Shane Vereen. He is going to 841 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 1: be such an integral part of this backfield in New England, 842 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 1: especially as a pass catcher. If you grabbed it in 843 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: a PPR league, you could potentially have a high end 844 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: r V two on his hand. Baby, he was great 845 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: at the end of last season when he was healthy. 846 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:46,439 Speaker 1: I don't think the patrons have a lot of faith 847 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,800 Speaker 1: in Stephen Ridley. This is your man in New England, 848 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 1: Shane Verne. He's gotta stay healthy, alright. Uh Marcus, talk 849 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 1: to me about Bernard Pierce. You ain't scarred about that matchup? No, 850 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 1: not at no, man, I got you never scared. There's 851 00:41:58,200 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: a reason you dropped the Bernard Pierce. It was the 852 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 1: first two weeks of the season. Ray Rice was not 853 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: going to be there. Pierces a guy who looks good 854 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: in at his own running scheme. He's at zown blacking scheme. Rather, 855 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: he can catch the ball out of the backfield. Sure, 856 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 1: Dennis Pitta and Tory Smith will see a lot of targets, 857 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 1: but Bernard Pierce could have some sneaky numbers this season 858 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,399 Speaker 1: versus the Bengals though. Hey, speaking of on the other 859 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: side of bar, talk to me about Jeremy Hill. He's 860 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: the backup, but yet you like him this week He's 861 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: gonna be deep, deep, deep deep on Michael Fabiano's list there. 862 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: But I believe he's a good sleeper because I believe 863 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson, their offensive coordinator for the Bengals, He's gonna 864 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,720 Speaker 1: know how to utilize. And you watch tape on him 865 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 1: at l s U and you'll see the type of talented. 866 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,800 Speaker 1: He's a big bruiser. You're not gonna give Giovanni Bernard 867 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 1: the majority of the low It's going to go to 868 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill. You'll be praised me after week while fabs. 869 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this about this matchup. If jo 870 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 1: Bernard and Jeremy Hill get the carries that that off 871 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 1: bar is talking about, doesn't that decrease Andy Dalton and A. J. 872 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,359 Speaker 1: Green's valet? Well, No, AJ Green's gonna see targets no 873 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:58,359 Speaker 1: matter what happens. Dalton, I'm not on that bandwagon. All right, 874 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,240 Speaker 1: mark Ingram for Adam Rank, what do you like about 875 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 1: this New Orleans back? All right, let's have some real 876 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 1: talk here, Maran talk. Mark Ingram has been a little 877 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: bit of a disappointment during his NFL career, but this 878 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: guy has really come on. If you watch any of 879 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: him in the preseason, you couldn't come away but anything 880 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 1: but impressed the guys. Running hard, he's running smart, he's 881 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: hitting the whole contomet here. He's still listen whatever, whatever's 882 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 1: motivating him, I don't care. As long as he's on 883 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: the field for me. Start him as a flex guy 884 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: this week, mark Ingram's coming through. The number one wide 885 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 1: receiver in a Chip Kelly offense, that would be Jeremy 886 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 1: mac And you mentioned contract year, which Macklyn is also in. 887 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 1: As long as he stays healthy, I think he's gonna 888 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 1: be very good. Remember Macklyn before he got hurt, he 889 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: liked to find that end zone. He was a pretty 890 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: good touchdown producer. The Jaguars don't have a great secondary, 891 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:48,839 Speaker 1: I'll do that. I do think that defensive line could 892 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,919 Speaker 1: be pretty underrated. I like Macklen as a number three 893 00:43:51,920 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 1: receiver that worried about Jordan Matthews. All right for the guys, 894 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 1: Adam Rank, Bar Mila, Michael Fabriano, Marcus Grant, I'm James co. 895 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 1: That's gonna do it for us. We'll see you Sunday 896 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: morning at Eastern on NFL dot Com, NFL Now, and 897 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 1: the NFL Red Zone Channel with all the latest fantasy 898 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,839 Speaker 1: news leading up to kick off.
