Welcome to the 3 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,439 Speaker 2: NFL Fantasy Football Podcast, where we're ready to come off 4 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,760 Speaker 2: the pup list. It's made your man NAMG Marcus Brand 5 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 2: joined by Michael lef Florio in studio. We got Hythem, 6 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,240 Speaker 2: we got Susie, we got Josh. Give yourselves around of applause. Please, 7 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: thank you, thank you, thank you. Well, we are a 8 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 2: couple of weeks away from starting. You and I had 9 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 2: the pure joy of being part of the at and 10 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 2: Fantasy Extravaganza today. That was fun. 11 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a good time. We have that fantasy love. 12 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 3: We're spending a lot of time together today. 13 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, we absolutely are. So we did that. We 14 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 2: did Fantasy Live. We got all of that, so we 15 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 2: got plenty of stuff to talk about today too. We're 16 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 2: gonna go through the NFC North as we continue our 17 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 2: division previews. 18 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 1: But let's start with a couple of pretty big. 19 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: News items that ended up hitting on Monday after we 20 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 2: recorded the previous show. Two big name free agent running 21 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: backs are off the board. The Patriots sign Ezekiel Elliott 22 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: to a one year deal. That happened literally an hour 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 2: and a half after I drafted Rimandre Stevenson in the league, 24 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 2: so that was fun. 25 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: People were drafting Zeke. 26 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 2: They were drafting him sort of in the double digit rounds, 27 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 2: kind of late dart throw sort of thing. And now 28 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: obviously we know where he's going to be. Where are 29 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: you comfortable drafting Zeke. You may not be drafting z 30 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 2: but where would you at least consider it? 31 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 3: I think like the tenth or eleventh round, and all 32 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 3: summer long, I had been taking Zeke in like the fourteenth, 33 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 3: fifteenth round because my thinking was, whenever he signs, it 34 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 3: could be literally anywhere. He's going to get pulled up 35 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 3: the board a little bit because he's Ezekiel Elliott. I 36 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 3: think that he'll play the secondary role here. I think 37 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: he'll be the short yarded running back. He could get 38 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 3: sprinkled in in the passing game as well. I think 39 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 3: where he's going to make the biggest impact is near 40 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 3: the goal line. He's been very effective in that role 41 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 3: the last couple of years. Ramandre Stevenson, you know, I 42 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 3: think if you anyone who thought Romandre Stevenson was going 43 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 3: to get eighty ninety percent of the backfield work, I 44 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 3: think was fooling themselves. I could see a sixty to 45 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 3: forty split, maybe a little bit heavier in Stevenson's side. 46 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 3: But Zeke, I think is one of the top backup 47 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: running backs. 48 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: Now, yeah, he's definitely a top backup. 49 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 2: You know. I know a lot of people sort of 50 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: looked at Remandre and you know, part of the reason 51 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: he was going, say third round, was because people believed 52 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 2: that the Patriots were always going to sign another running back. 53 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 2: And so I know for a lot of people, they 54 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: don't really see this as you know, Zeke being a 55 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: major threat. I think you just naturally have to knock 56 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: Remandre down a round or two. Look, I think Zeke 57 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: is going to be that guy who gets a lot 58 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 2: of the goal line work. 59 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: He's a better. 60 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: Pass catcher than Damian Harris was, so maybe he contributes 61 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 2: there a little bit, But I don't think it's going 62 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: to be significant. I think it's still going to be 63 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 2: a lot of Remandre. But Zeke is going to be 64 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 2: a guy who gets his work. He's gonna have that 65 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 2: touchdown upside. But I think the one thing we know 66 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 2: is that he is not nearly as explosive or efficient 67 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: as he was earlier in his career. It's part of 68 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 2: the reason he hung out on the free agent market 69 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: for quite so long. So you're still in on Remandre 70 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 2: though I am. 71 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 3: I think that you know he was going what in 72 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 3: like the third round. Let's say if you could get 73 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 3: a discount on that, I would definitely be more in 74 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 3: on him. But in my running back rankings he went 75 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 3: from RB ten to RB eleven. I put Jimi or 76 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 3: Gibbs ahead of him. I'm debating him or Joe Mixon. 77 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 3: But after that, I'm still I want Stevenson over the 78 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 3: other running backs that remain on the board. 79 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I still think he has a big role in 80 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 2: this offense. And I don't love the Patriots offense as 81 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: a whole, but Remandre feels like a guy who I 82 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: think we can sort of count on weekend and a 83 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: week out. So Zeke signs with the Patriots. Dalvin Cook 84 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,119 Speaker 2: also going to the Northeast, and he signs a one 85 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: year deal with the New York Jets, a similar situation. 86 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 2: We knew Dalvin was going to land, so we're just 87 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: curious about where again, people were drafting him. He was 88 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 2: kind of going I think six, seventh, eighth round somewhere 89 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 2: around there. 90 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: Where are you feeling about drafting Dalvin Cook right now. 91 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 3: So I just pulled up some ADP from the last 92 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 3: two days, and right now, Brice Hall is going as 93 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 3: RB sixteen and James Cook is going at RB twenty 94 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 3: six and around like the seventh or eighth round. I 95 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 3: think he'll get pulled up a round or two. But 96 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: for me, excuse me, Dalvin Cook is a running back 97 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 3: that at that cost I am still in on because 98 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 3: I could see it being a week to week thing 99 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 3: when they're both healthy. But if either one of these 100 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: two misses time, they bring RB one upside. 101 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: Now I think they definitely have RB one upside. 102 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 2: The problem is they are going to be sharing opportunities 103 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 2: in the backfield together, and that is sort of what's 104 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: going to hurt a little bit. This was I think, 105 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: of all the free agent running backs out there, this 106 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 2: is worst case scenario for the whoever was the en 107 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: than any one team, right you know, if you were 108 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 2: like the there's talk about him maybe going to Miami, 109 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 2: there's talk about him going to the Jets. Whoever was 110 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 2: the RB one currently, the last guy you wanted to 111 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 2: see was Dalvin Cook because of all the guys out there, 112 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: he was the one who still has I think the 113 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: most left in the tank. So this you know he's 114 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: gonna come in this year. He's gonna get opportunities, at 115 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: least in the early part of the season. What does 116 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: this mean for Breece Hall. 117 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 3: Then it definitely lowers the ceiling for Breece Hall because 118 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 3: now they have the potential to ease him along, and 119 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: I'm worried about that being the case. One other thing 120 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 3: that I think the fantasy community is overlooking. The Jets 121 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: want to do everything in their power to make Aaron 122 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 3: Rodgers happy. He took a pay cut, and to me, 123 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 3: it looks like he took the pay cut to get 124 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 3: Dalvin Cook. Dalvin Cook is a running back that his 125 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 3: entire career has been going up against Aaron Rodgers twice 126 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 3: a year. Aaron Rodgers knows first hand how great Dalvin 127 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 3: Cook has been his entire career. I'm not sure if 128 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers ever watched Breese Hall play. Aaron Rodgers has 129 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: no idea what Brice Hall is. So if Aaron Rodgers 130 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 3: is getting what he wants, and we know that he's 131 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 3: in the ears of na Daniel Hackett and the other 132 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 3: coaches there, he's probably pushing He's I would say he's 133 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 3: probably the vocalist pusher there for Dalvin Cook, which hurts 134 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 3: Brice Hall. And that's why for me at cost where 135 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 3: you get a two or three round discount, I would 136 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 3: rather have Dalvin Cook. 137 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: I probably, you know. 138 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 2: I just wonder if I know there's a flat of 139 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: people who believe and it's the thing if you watch 140 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: it Frantis Fantasy Live on Wednesday. 141 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: Adam rank mench is it too. 142 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 2: The belief being that maybe they ease Brice Hall back 143 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 2: into it, and we see a lot of Dalvin Cook 144 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 2: early and then it's sort of a thing where back 145 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: half of the season we see Breese Hall maybe get 146 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: up to full speed and start to. 147 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: Come back and take over more of that role. 148 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 2: I guess it just seems like that transition may be 149 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: painful in the middle of the season. I just think 150 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 2: you take and two guys who, as we said, have 151 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: RB one upside and sort of relegating them the RB 152 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 2: two status. For the Jets, it's a great problem to have, 153 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 2: right you have two really good running backs. You can 154 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: rotate them and everything will be fine for us. It's 155 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: a little bit more frustrating, I think trying to figure 156 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: out if that transition really happens. We get to week eight, 157 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 2: week nine, and suddenly both of them are really really 158 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: hard to use because none of them, neither one of 159 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: them has a clear lead in that backfield. 160 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 3: I could see Breize Hall definitely getting a larger workload 161 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 3: as the year goes on. I think that makes total sense. 162 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 3: Dalvin Cook is never going to fully go away like 163 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 3: he is going to be a bigger threat to take 164 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 3: away carries than most of the running backs going that 165 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 3: early have to deal with. 166 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I think that's going to be the big 167 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 2: frustration with them. But both of them obviously draftable, both 168 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 2: of them startable on a weekly basis. Curious to see 169 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 2: what the division of labor is going to be like 170 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 2: in the first few weeks of the season. Something that's 171 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: not on the field related, but it's certainly a lot 172 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: of fun. Obviously, we know that fantasy football is big nationally. 173 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 2: We know that this big amongst Major League Baseball players, 174 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 2: and apparently broadcasters as well. Saw this story the other day. 175 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 2: San Francisco Giants broadcaster Dave Fleming finished last place in 176 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 2: his fantasy league, and his punishment was to be the 177 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 2: team's bat boy for three innings. The other night uniform 178 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 2: and everything. They put him in a uniform, they gave 179 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: him a number. Uh, you've seen the video right of 180 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: him running like baseball's out to the umpire and that 181 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 2: sort of thing. 182 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 3: I saw an interview he said he was gonna have 183 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 3: to ice up after. 184 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 2: So he did it against the Rays at Oracle Park, 185 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: full uniform for three innings. Here's the Giants seem to 186 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: have connections to fantasy football because they they have Jack Peterson. 187 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: And we all remember the Jack Peterson story, right, And 188 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 2: you were telling me that that actually, I guess sort 189 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: of impacted the Giants at the trade deadline. 190 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, apparently they didn't want to acquire a certain baseball 191 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 3: player because of that whole incident, which I guess makes sense. 192 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, they're gonna bring They're gonna get Tommy 193 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 2: fam who infamously slapped Jack Peterson over a disagreement regarding 194 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: fantasy football. And I guess the Giants from an office 195 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: looked at it and said, well, I guess we shouldn't 196 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 2: bring fam in there because. 197 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: Why start conflict. 198 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 3: Talk about players though, who play fantasy football and know 199 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 3: their stuff. Tommy fam is at the top of the list, 200 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 3: is he? Yeah, he apparently is like a big, big 201 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 3: time fantasy football player. 202 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, apparently he was willing to slap Jack 203 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: Peterson over Jeff Wilson, so apparently he kind of knows 204 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 2: what he's doing there. 205 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: Wilson a winner of the Dalvin Cook signing. 206 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: That's right, he is. 207 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 2: He lay winner of the Dalvin Cook signing because Dalvin 208 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 2: Cook did not go to Miami, so it absolutely works. 209 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 2: All right, Let's turn our attention now to the NFC 210 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: North as we continue our division previews, going alphabetically by 211 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 2: city name, so we. 212 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: Will start in the Windy City. 213 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: The Chicago Bears their top scorer last year justin Fields 214 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 2: at quarterback. He was the QB five three hundred and 215 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 2: seven points. David Montgomery one hundred and seventy seven points 216 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: made him RB twenty four. Darnel Mooney was the top 217 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 2: scoring wide receiver just over one hundred points, wide receiver 218 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 2: seventy two, and Cole Comet your tight end eight one 219 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 2: forty seven point three. Big losses in the offseason Trevor 220 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 2: Simeon and David Montgomery in free agency, they did add 221 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 2: PJ Walker, Deonte Foreman, Travis Homer, Dante Pettis, DJ Moore 222 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 2: maybe the big one. And Robert Tunyan, who, by the way, 223 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: I've heard the nickname Bobby Tons for Robert Tonyan, which 224 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 2: I don't like it. I'm not sure how I feel 225 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 2: about it. I'm on the fence about Bobby Tons. They 226 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 2: did draft Forshawn Johnson and Tyler Scott. First guy off 227 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 2: the board, DJ Moore some more mid to late fourth round, 228 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: all right, more or less twenty eight hundred passing yards 229 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: this year for Justin Fields, give. 230 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 3: Me more there. I think that four thousand is setting 231 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 3: the bar awfully high. It would be a huge jump 232 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: in what he did last year. But I could see 233 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 3: him throwing for like three thousand to thirty two yards 234 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 3: something in that range. Especially. I know people were having 235 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 3: their fun on Twitter saying like Justin Fields through for 236 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty yards where his air yards were 237 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 3: like three because it was all But he now has 238 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 3: receivers like DJ Moore who is capable of taking a 239 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 3: three yard pass and making it a sixty two yard touchdown, 240 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: so their receiving room is greatly improved. I think DJ 241 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 3: Moore could have an influence on Justin Fields similar to 242 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 3: how Stefan Diggs did on Josh Allen how aj Brown 243 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 3: did on Jalen Hurts the blue Tyreek kill with Tua. 244 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 3: The blueprint is there, like get your young quarterback a 245 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 3: stud receiver and watch the magic happen. 246 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny too. 247 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 2: You talk about the air yards and it sort of 248 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 2: reared its ugly head again this past weekend because Fields 249 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 2: was three for three, had to touchdown passes, and I 250 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 2: think I believe Warren Sharp, who was on our show recently, 251 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 2: who calculated that he threw three passes, had three completions, 252 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 2: had minus seven total air yards. Everything was behind the 253 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage. 254 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 3: And touchdown was probably the furthest twenty. 255 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: Three, yeah exactly. 256 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: The other ones are behind the line of scrimmage, and 257 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 2: his pass catchers did the rest of the work. I'm 258 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: gonna say less than twenty eight hundred, but not by 259 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 2: a lot. I think we see him take a step 260 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 2: forward as a passer this year. I think adding DJ 261 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: Moore is a big help to go along with Cole 262 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: Comett and hopefully a healthy Darnell Mooney. 263 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 1: But I'm also sort of looking at it. 264 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking at it from a Lamar Jackson perspective, 265 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 2: where Lamar Jackson only has two seasons with more than 266 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 2: twenty eight hundred passing yards, and I'm not sure that 267 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: justin Field is quite there yet. So I think I 268 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: think you see him. You know, he was at twenty 269 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 2: two hundred last year. I could see twenty six, twenty 270 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: seven hundred. I'm not quite sure he gets to twenty eight. 271 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 2: May not matter, though, if he continues to run the 272 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 2: way he has the last couple of years. Speaking of 273 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 2: DJ Moore, what is this fantasy ceiling? I don't think 274 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 2: he's ever finished higher than wide receiver fifteen. Could he 275 00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 2: get higher than that this year? 276 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 3: I think so the way that I have him ranked 277 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: as my wide receiver twenty, I've been going back and 278 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 3: forth on where exactly I want to place him, but 279 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 3: I kind of view him in a similar sense of 280 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 3: how he's always been, like DJ Moore has never had 281 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 3: a really great quarterback throwing him the ball. He's always 282 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 3: been on offenses that aren't the best in the league 283 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 3: or even largely below average offenses, and yet he has 284 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 3: still produced and been able to put up like a 285 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 3: thousand yards and be a really solid wide receiver two 286 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 3: for fantasy. And I think that is the median for him, 287 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 3: and that is where I'm comfortable drafting him. But if 288 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 3: justin fields, there is untapped potential there. If he could 289 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: take that next step as a passer, he could easily 290 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 3: be the best quarterback who's ever thrown the ball to 291 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 3: DJ Moore since DJ Moore has really broke out, which 292 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 3: I think gives DJ Moore a higher ceiling. 293 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 2: I think it does give him a higher ceiling. I 294 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 2: just again because I think that for justin fields, getting 295 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 2: the twenty eight hundred yards is going to be hard. 296 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: I think just DJ Moore. 297 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 2: Getting inside the top fifteen is going to be rather 298 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 2: difficult for Fantasy. Right now, he's being drafted right around 299 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 2: wide receiver twenty two, and that feels sort of right. 300 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I think he's a solid wide receiver too candidate, 301 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: and maybe he gives you some some wide receiver one weeks, 302 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 2: but I think, you know, fifteen might be the absolute 303 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 2: ceiling for I think DJ Moore in Fantasy this year. 304 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: Looking at the backfield, David Montgomery is gone. 305 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 2: So who would you rather have? Khalil Herbert in round eight, 306 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 2: Deonta Foreman in round twelve. 307 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 3: This one isn't even close for me. I'm all in 308 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 3: on Khalil Herbert at his cost. I don't think people 309 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 3: realize how good Khalil Herbert was last year as a runner. 310 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 3: He led the league in rushing yards after contact on 311 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 3: a per carry basis and on runs that went for 312 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 3: ten or more yards. So I mean that's the ahead 313 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 3: of like the elites at the position, and he was 314 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 3: doing so while rotating with David Montgomery. I wouldn't be 315 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 3: surprised if we still see a rotation this year with Foreman. 316 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 3: But it was Montgomery getting two out of every three drive. 317 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 3: I think this year it'll be Khalil Herbert getting that. 318 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 3: Plus his touchdown the other day was a receiving one. 319 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 3: That is the thing that we need to see more 320 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 3: out of him. And they're talking up that they want 321 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 3: to use him more in that role. But at round eight, 322 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 3: even if he is just the lead running back for 323 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 3: the Bears, he can exceed that value. 324 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 2: I think that is I'm with you one hundred percent 325 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: on that. When it was an easy Khalil Herbert for 326 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 2: me there and I was gonna mention that same thing 327 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 2: he caught a touchdown. I mean it was a little 328 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 2: dump off pass or screen pass and he turned it 329 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 2: into a long catch and run for a score. 330 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: Here's the thing for our purposes. 331 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 2: We don't need running backs necessarily going out there and 332 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 2: running the route tree like it's great. You know, it's 333 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 2: great if you're Christian McCaffrey, you're Austin Eckler and you 334 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 2: are running legitimate routes and getting targets. If they just 335 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: want to give you a swing pass or a dump 336 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: off or a screen or something like that, it still 337 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 2: counts the same in terms of receptions. I will take it. 338 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: And if that's going to be the thing for Khalil 339 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: Herbert this year, I think that certainly helps him. I'm 340 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 2: with you. I think deoncey Foreman gets some opportunity and 341 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 2: maybe he sort of takes away that touchdown upside, But 342 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: I still think this is going to be Khalil Herbert's backfield, 343 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: and you know he's worth the shot, especially round eight 344 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 2: or later in a lot of drafts. Over to the 345 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: Detroit Lions. Jared Goff the top scoring quarterback for Detroit. 346 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 2: No surprise, they are QB ten last year, just over 347 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,479 Speaker 2: two hundred and ninety points. Jamal Williams with his ridiculous 348 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 2: touchdown season to twenty five point nine RB thirteen. I'm 349 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 2: on Ross saying Brown the sun God finished as wide 350 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 2: receiver seven. So TJ. Howkinson was the top scoring tight 351 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 2: end for the Lions last year, played seven games in Detroit, 352 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: and then they traded him to Minnesota seventy four and 353 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 2: a half points. Terrible. Yeah, So like that you that 354 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 2: tells you how the rest of the tight ends were 355 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 2: in Detroit this year. 356 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: Big losses in the offseason. 357 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 2: They lose their entire backfield with DeAndre Swift and Jamal 358 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: Williams leaving DJ Chark also on the move. They went 359 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 2: out and in free agency they go get David Montgomery, 360 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 2: They bring Marvin Jones after a few years away from Detroit. 361 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 2: They draft Jamiir Gibbs, Sam Laporta, and they take a quarterback, 362 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 2: Hindon Hooker. And right now, I'm on Ross, Saint Brown, 363 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 2: your most highly drafted Lion early in the first round. 364 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 2: We all love Bjeon Robinson, most of us love Jamiir Gibbs. 365 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say can he because I think he can. 366 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: Will Jamir Gibbs be a top ten fantasy running back. 367 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 3: I not only do I think he will be, I 368 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 3: have him ranked as my RB ten right now. So 369 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 3: I am very in on Jamier Gibbs. He was one 370 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 3: of my guys this season. The Lions had two proven 371 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 3: vet like they gave David Montgomery that free agency contract, 372 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 3: they had DeAndre Swift there, and they still use the 373 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: twelfth overall pick on Jamiir Gibbs and said they would 374 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 3: have taken him as high as six overall. Then they 375 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 3: trade Swift. To me, it indicates that they have very, 376 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 3: very big plans for him and Gibbs. Look, I love 377 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 3: Bjeon Robinson. Gibbs is more explosive. I think like he 378 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 3: has that kind of of speed and burst and he 379 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 3: could be used in the passing game. I think, especially 380 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 3: early on when there's no Jamison Williams out there, I 381 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 3: think there's gonna be a lot of volume up for 382 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 3: grabs in the passing game, and a lot of it 383 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 3: will go to Jamier games. 384 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's gonna get a lot of it 385 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,880 Speaker 2: there too. Look, I think he will be a top 386 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: ten running back. I think we're gonna have two rookies 387 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 2: in the top ten and most fantasy running backs. B 388 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 2: Jeon Robinson Jamier Gibbs both is gonna get there. I 389 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 2: will say the only thing that does worry me is 390 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 2: that David Montgomery. I mean, as much as you know 391 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: in fantasy we sort of kind of like yeah about him. 392 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 2: He's still productive and he gets a lot of opportunity, 393 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 2: and he can catch the football as well. That's the 394 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 2: thing we saw from those years in Chicago. He can 395 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 2: catch the ball there. So there is always that threat 396 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 2: of him sort of eating into some of Gibbs production. 397 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 2: But I think the talent and the explosiveness sort of 398 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: wins the day. And so I think you're talking about 399 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 2: top top ten, probably at ten. 400 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: Is where you're looking, but I do think it's gonna 401 00:18:59,480 --> 00:18:59,959 Speaker 1: happen this year. 402 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,439 Speaker 3: I agree with you on the Montgomery point, But like 403 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of people be like, Gibbs is 404 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 3: not going to get work near the goal line, and 405 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 3: I'm like, are we so sure about that? Because like, 406 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 3: what if the Lions go the Ausinecler route, the Camara route, 407 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 3: the Chiefs route where they take their big back off 408 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 3: of the field and then they put in their pass 409 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 3: catching back, because it makes it harder to predict what 410 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 3: they are going to do. If I'm not seeing enough 411 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 3: people talk about that, and if they use Gibbs near 412 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 3: the goal line. The upside is I would say even higher. 413 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, if he's certain to get goal line work, then 414 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: you'll forget about it. Absolutely tight end. We love Sam 415 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 2: Laporta in the late rounds, a lot of excitement for him. 416 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 2: The rest of that Lion's depth chart at the position 417 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 2: is barren. Will Sam Laporta be a top twelve fantasy 418 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 2: tight end? 419 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 3: This is another one. I'm gonna put my money where 420 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 3: my mouth is. I'm going to say, yes, I have 421 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 3: him ranked as my tight end twelve. What that means 422 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 3: is that I would take him as a top twelve 423 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 3: tight end. That's how I rank like where I would 424 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 3: draft these players, because I think the upside is so 425 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 3: high and it's something you were talking about on the 426 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 3: ATM podcast Go Go listen to that. The depth chart 427 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 3: behind him is insanely weak and they already have announced 428 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 3: that he is the starting tight end. Every day at 429 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 3: a training camp, it feels like he's getting more and 430 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 3: more hype. So yeah, I think that there's two rookie 431 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 3: tight ends this year that could break that whole, like 432 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 3: rookie tight end. So we say that two years after 433 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 3: Kyle Pitts went for a thousand. 434 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 2: Right where Kyle Pitts went for a thousand yards, but 435 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 2: people like are down on him because he had what 436 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 2: one touchdown? 437 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,919 Speaker 4: Then he scored it in London, scored in London. Everyone 438 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 4: was asleep, but it's like he had a thousand yards. 439 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 4: Man as a rookie, you forget about it. I do 440 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 4: love Samlporta. He's one of my most drafted tight ends 441 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 4: in best ball leagues. Just it's a high powered offense 442 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 4: that they're going to throw the ball a lot. There's 443 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 4: not a lot of people behind him who can take 444 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 4: his opportunities away. And again, as as a wise man, 445 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 4: Andy Barns of Yahoo said, to be a top twelve, 446 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 4: even a top eight tight end, you're talking about, you know, 447 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 4: fifty catches, five hundred yards, four to six touchdowns, Like 448 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 4: the bar is not high to be a top twelve 449 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 4: tight end, and I think Laporta has more than enough 450 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 4: to clear that bar at all. This year last one 451 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 4: here for the Lions more or less twenty five and 452 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 4: a half passing touchdowns for Jared Goff. 453 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 3: Give me more. He threw twenty nine last year and 454 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 3: that was with the Lions running backs having a league 455 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 3: high in touchdowns. I think they're going to throw the 456 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 3: ball more to the running back. Now, that's why I 457 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 3: think they got rid of Jamal Williams, bring in Jamier Gibbs, 458 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 3: talk about I mean a moan Ross Saint Brown is 459 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 3: a borderline first round pick for a reason. We're both 460 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 3: saying the tight end could be top twelve at the position. 461 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 3: And then we haven't even spoke about Jamison Williams, who's 462 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 3: going to come back from Week seven to on and 463 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 3: is far more explosive than any option that they had 464 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 3: in the offense last year. So now we have potentially 465 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 3: deep touchdowns there, potentially short little dumpuffs that Gibbs could 466 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 3: take to the house, a Monrod doing his thing. I 467 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,239 Speaker 3: think the Lions are going to win this division, and 468 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 3: I think that they are going to have a real offense. 469 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 2: They're gonna have a really good offense. I think he's 470 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 2: over twenty five and a half touchdowns. I mean last year, 471 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 2: as you mentioned, he had twenty nine. As he's getting 472 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 2: more comfortable in the offense, they're adding more weapons. What's 473 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 2: wild is that he's only had one season with thirty touchdowns. 474 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 2: That was in twenty eighteen with the Rams when he 475 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 2: threw thirty two. I think he gets over thirty touchdowns 476 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 2: again this year, just because the offense is really set 477 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 2: up for that. And it's funny because I think the 478 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 2: Lions originally thought Jared Goff was just sort of a 479 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 2: bridge quarterback. And I'm not gonna sit here and tell 480 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 2: you he's a franchise guy, but I think he's turned 481 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 2: out to be more for them than they would have 482 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 2: imagined when they first got him from from the Rams 483 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. 484 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: Hey, NFL Fantasy is back. 485 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: Download the NFL Fantasy apps, sign up and draft to 486 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 2: be entered to win two tickets to Super Bowl fifty 487 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 2: eight in Las Vegas, Nevada.

It was q and you 500 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 2: were roasted on Good Morning Football, and they owe you 501 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 2: an apology. If anybody out there on Good Morning Football 502 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 2: is listening, this man, he deserves an apology. Rogers QB 503 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 2: thirteen just over two hundred and fifty points, Aaron Jones 504 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: the RB nine at two hundred and forty eight point 505 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 2: six fantasy points. Alan Lazard is the top scoring wide 506 00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 2: receiver in Green Bay. Last year wide receiver thirty five, 507 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: and Robert Tunyan Bobby tuns was a tight end twenty 508 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve fantasy points. In the off season. 509 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if you've heard this, but Aaron Rodgers 510 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: left Green Bay. He's not a Packer anymore. I know, 511 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 2: I know this is probably news to a lot of you. 512 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb, Allan Lazard, Robert Tunyan all vacating 513 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 2: Green Bay. In fact, the Packers lose three of their 514 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 2: four top positional scorers in the off season in the draft, 515 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 2: though they added Luke Musgrave Jaden Reed, Tuckercraft, and Dontavian Wicks. 516 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 2: As the Packers tend to do not much moving in 517 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 2: free agency. Aaron Jones the Jones the first Packer off 518 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 2: the board early in the fourth round, which leads me 519 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 2: to the first question, how are you feeling about Aaron 520 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: Jones this year? 521 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 3: I'm undecided. He is not someone that I've been drafting 522 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 3: a whole lot of because where he goes, I'd rather 523 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 3: take a wide receiver in like the fourth round. But 524 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 3: you look at the last two seasons, He's only scored 525 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 3: six rushing touchdowns the large chunk his entire career. Pretty much. 526 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 3: The reason he's been so great in fantasy is what 527 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 3: he's given us as a pass catcher. I have big 528 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 3: concerns of that small sample size. But in the bit 529 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 3: that we have seen Jordan Love, he has not thrown 530 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 3: to the running backs nearly as much as Aaron Rodgers has, 531 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 3: and that is my concern. Whenever there's a change at quarterback, 532 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 3: I think people think that, yes, there is a skill 533 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 3: for running backs to be able to catch the ball, 534 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 3: and there's only a handful of CMCs and Ecklers, and 535 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 3: those guys are great for a reason. But for the 536 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 3: most part, in my opinion, at least a lot of 537 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 3: running back receiving production is a quarterback stack like It's 538 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 3: the reason why Naji Harris lost forty targets from one 539 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 3: year to the next is because he's his quarterback went 540 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 3: from a statue to one who could actually move around 541 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 3: and keep his eyes down field and stuff. So I 542 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 3: have a lot of concerns. Jordan Love is more mobile 543 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 3: at this point in his career than Aaron Rodgers, who 544 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 3: was kind of a statue last year behind that offensive 545 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 3: line in Green Bay. So I think there's more concern 546 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 3: now than ever with Aaron Jones. And you're not really 547 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 3: getting a discount on it. Maybe a little bit, but 548 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 3: as a round three, round four pick, I tend to 549 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 3: just go elsewhere. 550 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 2: I know that the dreaded RB dead zone has sort 551 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 2: of moved and its kind of floated around, but I 552 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 2: feel like if there's anyone in it, he's sort of 553 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 2: the start, you know. I look at the guys that 554 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 2: are going around here a little bit after him, Aaron Jones, 555 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker, who has to deal with Zach Sharbone, Miles 556 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 2: Sanders in you know, what is an unknown quantity in 557 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: the Carolina offense. 558 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 1: JK. 559 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 2: Dobbins, Alexander Madison, these are guys that I sort of 560 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 2: look at it and I'm kind of like, yeah, I 561 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 2: think i'd rather have, you know, a wide receiver or 562 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 2: maybe a tied end depending on who's left on the board, 563 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 2: sort of in that range. What has helped Aaron Jones 564 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 2: is that he's been much more efficient than AJ Dillon 565 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 2: the last couple of years. You mentioned the pass catching 566 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 2: ability that sort of kept him afloat, and I'm wondering 567 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 2: whether or not it's going to be enough this year. 568 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: You know, I know Dylan himself is trying to make 569 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 2: sure he gets more opportunity to get more touches that 570 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: sort of thing. I just I'm with you. I'm not 571 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 2: really excited. I'm not out on Aaron Jones. I'm just 572 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 2: also not excited about Aaron Jones. 573 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 3: I'm out on Dylan as well. Like I am out 574 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 3: on Dylan, I don't want any because this offense could 575 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 3: be bad, and you don't want a running back whose 576 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 3: whole thing is like I need ground production on a 577 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:22,679 Speaker 3: bad offense. 578 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I'm not in at all on AJ Dillon. So 579 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 2: we know everybody's in on Christian Watson. I don't think 580 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 2: that's much up for debate, But behind him, who'd you 581 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 2: rather have Romeo Dobbs or Jaden Reid? 582 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 3: The rookie fantasy Twitter loves Romeo Dobbs for some reason. 583 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 3: I am on team Jayden Reid, and look, I know 584 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 3: Dobbs caught the touchdown the other day and everyone was like, look, 585 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 3: this guy is really good. My thing is they had 586 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 3: him last year. They know what they have in Romeo Dobbs, 587 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 3: at least more than Jayden Reid. And then in the 588 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 3: draft they went out and they took Jayden Reid in 589 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 3: the second round, which happened to be eighty picks higher 590 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 3: than the pick they used on Romeo Dobbs. 591 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: I get it. 592 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 3: He was a darling last year. We all thought he 593 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,640 Speaker 3: could be the new wide receiver one there he flopped. 594 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 3: I took a lot of shots on him. It was 595 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 3: not fun having Romeo Dobbs, especially early on when we thought, oh, 596 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,199 Speaker 3: Christian Watson's hurt. It was not. At no point was 597 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 3: it fun having Romeo Dobbs. At least Jayden Reid is 598 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 3: a good route runner. He can create separation. I'm expecting 599 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 3: him to open up as the third wide receiver in 600 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 3: the slot. But as the year goes on, I think 601 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 3: he is the better talent, so I would not be 602 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 3: surprised if he steals that wide receiver two job away. 603 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: I'm all I'm all about Jader. 604 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 2: I will say all about Jayden Reid, but between the 605 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 2: two of them, I'm definitely more about Reed than I am. 606 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 2: Romeo Dobbs and I'm with you. Last year, I started 607 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 2: buying into the Romeo Dobbs hype. In the first couple 608 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 2: of weeks it seemed good and like this is gonna 609 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 2: be a thing, and then it sort of fell apart. 610 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 2: You know, the chatter out of Green Bay is that 611 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 2: Red is going to work himself into an opportunity, and 612 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 2: so again, where you're taking him, there's pretty much no 613 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 2: risk involved. And the thing I've been saying is that 614 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 2: Jordan Love doesn't have to be great, he just has 615 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: to be not awful. And I think we can achieve 616 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 2: not awful from Jordan Love this year. And you know, again, 617 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 2: for a late round opportunity, why not take the shot 618 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 2: And if it turns out to be something good, then 619 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: you're gonna feel like a genius. Speaking of Jordan Love, 620 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 2: we're not really drafting him, maybe in two QB leagues. 621 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 2: Maybe where do you think he finishes among fantasy quarterbacks as. 622 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 3: A QB two, like a low end QB two borderline even. 623 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: I have him ranked right now as the QB twenty five, 624 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 3: and people might be like, oh, that's low and then 625 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 3: it's like, okay, well, would you rather have him or 626 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 3: Rock Purty? For me, it's easily party Russell Wilson I'd 627 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 3: rather have. I'd rather take an upside shot on Kyler Murray, 628 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 3: Matt Stafford, who has shown us that he can be 629 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 3: when healthy, a QB one Derek Carr the two I 630 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 3: have ahead of him that I could see people like 631 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 3: scratching their heads a bit. Or Bryce Young and Desmond Ritter. 632 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 3: I think both of them are going to run more, 633 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 3: which is huge for fantasy purposes, And like, at least 634 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 3: with Ritter, I'm like, hey, the pass catchers around him, 635 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 3: I know are like great run game, great tight end, 636 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 3: really good wide receiver. One Jordan Love has Christian Watson 637 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 3: and Aaron Jones, and that's kind of it. But even 638 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 3: with Christian Watson, like in the preseason game the other day, 639 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 3: they could have had like a sixty seventy yard touchdown, 640 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 3: and the hype was, oh, what great safety play, And 641 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 3: I'm like, sure, it's really good safety play. But if 642 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 3: the throw is on the outside and not on the 643 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 3: inside and pulling Christian Watson where he has to slow 644 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 3: down and reach his hands out, we're talking about that 645 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 3: being easily a touchdown. So I maybe Jordan Love is 646 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 3: gonna get better. There's always unknown upside in the unknown. 647 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 3: But for me, I don't know. I kind of feel 648 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 3: like if this guy was good, they probably would have 649 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 3: been in more of a rush to get him out there. 650 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 3: I'm just not very high on the Packers offense. 651 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I get it. 652 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 2: I can't. I'm not drafting him anywhere. I think he's 653 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 2: you have him at twenty five. I mean, i'd say 654 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,719 Speaker 2: he's a QB three with with QB two upside potentially, 655 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 2: you know. I think I'm just more interested in kind 656 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 2: of watching from afar just to see what he turns into. 657 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 2: But you're right if they thought he was that guy. 658 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 2: Considering the headaches Aaron Rodgers was giving folks in Green 659 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,479 Speaker 2: Bay the last couple of years, I think if they 660 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 2: knew Jordan Reed could be the guy, they would have 661 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 2: figured out how to move on from Rogers instead of 662 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 2: sort of cow towing to him. 663 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: Over the last couple of years. 664 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 2: I think, I mean, I really think that would have 665 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: been the case. Last one here the Minnesota Vikings Kirk 666 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 2: Cousins their top QB. No shock there, QB seven overall. 667 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 2: Dalvin Cook, who is now of the Jets, was the 668 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 2: RB eleven. Was a little bit injured last year, so 669 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 2: that kept his numbers down a little bit. Justin Jefferson, 670 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 2: the wide receiver, won three hundred and sixty eight point 671 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 2: six points and he did that. Actually, remember the last 672 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 2: couple of weeks of the season, he sort of disappeared. 673 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: Anybody who was counting on Justin Jefferson those last couple 674 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 2: of weeks in the fantasy playoffs, they might have been 675 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 2: struggling because he got locked down. And the top tight 676 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 2: in Minnesota, well, it's the same guy who was the 677 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 2: top tight end in Detroit. TJ. Hawkinson had one hundred 678 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 2: and forty point nine points. Once he joined the Vikings 679 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 2: for the season, he was the tight end to overall. 680 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 2: Big losses for the Vikes in the offseason Dalvin Cook, 681 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: Adam Felen, and IRV Smith Junior. They go out and 682 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 2: add in free agency Brandon Powell and Josh Oliver. They 683 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 2: draft Jordan Addison and running back Dwayne McBride first off 684 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 2: the board for Minnesota's first off the board across NFL 685 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 2: fantasy or not NFL but just fantasy football. I guess 686 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson, who on average is going at the one 687 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 2: dot one, so more or less sixteen hundred receiving yards 688 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 2: for Justin Jefferson. 689 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 3: More he's done it in two straight years. It's an 690 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 3: average year for him at this point. I would say 691 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 3: they're going to throw the ball a lot here. Justin 692 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 3: Jefferson is. He's Justin Jefferson. He's the one dot one 693 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 3: for a reason. Yeah, there's not a whole lot of 694 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 3: analysis here other than Justin Jefferson is insanely good and 695 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 3: going to get a lot of volume. 696 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go I'm gonna be wild here. 697 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say less just because one, I think they 698 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 2: try to spread the ball around. I think whatever happened 699 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 2: to him at the end of last season, I'm pretty 700 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 2: sure teams are gonna be watching that and trying to 701 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: figure out how to sort of replicate that. This isn't 702 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 2: to say that he's going to be bad. He's not 703 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 2: gonna fall off a cliff. But you know, if you're 704 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 2: talking about him with like fifteen hundred and thirty yards, 705 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 2: right like, that's a really good season, it's not sixteen hundred, 706 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: just because I think it's really hard to do. I 707 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 2: think I saw something that fourteen hundred yard seasons. There's 708 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 2: only been like forty some odd of those in the 709 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 2: history of the NFL. I would suspect a lot of 710 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 2: them have probably come in the last decade when passing 711 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 2: games have exploded. So you know, I think he can 712 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 2: have an amazing season still not get to sixteen hundred yards. 713 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 2: You know, I certainly not wishing for injury, but that's 714 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 2: always you know, that always will derail something like that 715 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 2: as well. So I'm gonna say less for Justin Jefferson 716 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 2: this year at quarterback. Are you in or out on 717 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins this year? 718 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 3: I'm kind of just like there with Kirk Cousins, I'm 719 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 3: not in or out. I have him ranked at QB seventeen, 720 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,919 Speaker 3: which feels really low, But then to me, I keep 721 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 3: thinking about it, like there's a whole big tier with 722 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 3: Daniel Jones, Dak Prescott, Gino Smith, Jared Goff, Aaron Rodgers, 723 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins, Brock Purty. For me, you could put them 724 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 3: in any order and I would be okay with it. 725 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 3: The reason I have like Goff, Rogers Cousins lower is 726 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 3: they don't run, whereas like Daniel Jones will run, Dak 727 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 3: Prescott will run. The other concern I have with Kirk 728 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 3: Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings is last year felt like 729 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 3: a magical season for them, and like, Okay, that Colts 730 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 3: game he threw for four hundred and sixty yards and 731 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 3: four touchdowns, the huge comeback they had against the Bills 732 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 3: three hundred and fifty seven yards. There, there was a 733 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 3: game against the Lions where they were trailing big and 734 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 3: he threw for over four hundred yards. You take away 735 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 3: those games where like they need to just pull something 736 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 3: out of the air and like you're down six scores 737 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 3: early on and throwing the ball a whole bunch, and 738 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins season is much more like a normal Kirk 739 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 3: Cousins season. So even with the new OC there, I 740 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 3: know a lot of people are really high on this offense. 741 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 3: I'm not saying like this offense is going to be 742 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 3: bad or anything I am. I just have my doubts 743 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 3: if they are going to be able to live up 744 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 3: to what they were last season. 745 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins the last few years has sort of been 746 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:31,760 Speaker 2: that quitt essential fringe QB one. He's the guy who's 747 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 2: hanging around on the draft boards, and like the ninth 748 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,439 Speaker 2: round you draft them, you get some of those big 749 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 2: spike weeks that you talked about, and then in the 750 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 2: end he is hanging around QB ten, eleven, twelve, somewhere 751 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,879 Speaker 2: like that. And you know, last year the QB seven 752 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 2: thing seemed a little bit above his head. I think 753 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 2: this year he goes back to that and that it 754 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 2: doesn't really get me all that excited again. I guess 755 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 2: if I'm drafting Kirk Cousins, it's also because I'm drafting 756 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 2: somebody that I like with upside. I'm drafting an Anthony Richardson. 757 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 2: I'm drafting a two, a tongue of Iolois, somebody like that. 758 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 2: And then I just want sort of that fallback. Kirk 759 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 2: Cousins is the fallback. But even then there are other 760 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 2: guys I like more. I like Gino Smith Moore as 761 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 2: a fallback. I'd like Daniel Jones more as a fallback 762 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 2: than Kirk Cousins, just because you know, I think the 763 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 2: decline is probably coming, and you know, trying to figure 764 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 2: out which weeks are Kirk Cousins weeks when overall he's 765 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 2: just going to be a fringe QB one seems a 766 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 2: little more frustrating than what I want. What are your 767 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 2: expectations for Alexander Madison this year? 768 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 3: I'm lower on Madison than most I under And the 769 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 3: argument I keep seeing people seeing people on Twitter say 770 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 3: is like everyone wanted Alexander Madison when he was a backup, 771 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 3: and now people are and it's like, yeah, if you 772 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 3: can give me Alexander Madison potentially taking over if Dalvin 773 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 3: Cook gets hurt in the eighth, ninth, tenth round, that's 774 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 3: a lot different than paying a fourth round draft price, 775 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 3: just like it's a lot different to handle twenty carries 776 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 3: a week when you do it once or twice a 777 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 3: season instead of seventeen. And already Alexander Madison's metrics the 778 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 3: last two years were already dipping. And then here's the 779 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 3: other thing that I'm lower on a lot. The Vikings 780 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 3: threw the ball, ran the ball the third fewest amount 781 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 3: in football last year. But then Dalvin Cook is able 782 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 3: to be so good even on reduced touches because he 783 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 3: is so explosive. Like I get people saying, take away 784 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 3: the eighty yard run or the eighty yard catch it, 785 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 3: and I'm like, well, that is why we love Dalvin Cook. 786 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 3: Alexander Madison does not have that capability. Last season, his 787 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 3: longest run went for fifteen yards. He has two career 788 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 3: runs of over thirty yards, so those long Dalvin Cook 789 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 3: touchdowns now become a ten to fifteen yard run, and 790 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 3: when you're already not getting a whole bunch of volume. 791 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 3: I think he'll be in RB two. He'll have some 792 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,279 Speaker 3: weeks where he finishes as an RB one. I think 793 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 3: the absolute ceiling for him is kind of what like 794 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 3: Josh Jacobs did a couple years ago where he finished 795 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 3: as a lowend RB one, but it was like it 796 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 3: didn't feel like it. It was because other people got hurt 797 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 3: and stuff. But I'm much more lower on him. I 798 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 3: like him outside the top twenty running backs, and that 799 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 3: means I'm probably never gonna get him. 800 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: Probably not. 801 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 2: I'm I just I can't tell what to make of him, 802 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 2: because when we have seen him, it generally has been 803 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 2: sort of in relief of Dalvin Cook or you know, 804 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 2: when Cook is hurt sort of thing. It just you know, 805 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 2: he seems like he's good in bursts, and I think 806 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 2: I'm sort of feeling about him kind of the way 807 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 2: I felt about Tony Pollard going into last year, where 808 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 2: we were like, okay, but what happens if Pollard gets 809 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 2: more work. Now, for Pollard, it worked out. It was great. 810 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 2: We saw what happened. He was amazing. He's a guy 811 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 2: that we want. I don't necessarily know if it's gonna 812 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 2: be the same thing for Madison. I mean, he's again 813 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 2: and what was relatively limited work wasn't a big target 814 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,280 Speaker 2: earner in that offense. They've got three good pass catchers 815 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 2: in Jefferson Hawkinson and Jordan Madison. So how many opportunities 816 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 2: is he going to get to try to catch the 817 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 2: football unless, as you mentioned, he does some how have 818 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 2: that Dalvin Cook type explosion and we just haven't seen 819 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 2: it yet. You know, I don't know if there are 820 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 2: a lot of big plays there, and so if I'm 821 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 2: gonna be drafting him as a high end RB two, 822 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 2: like I want some of those big plays. I want 823 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,760 Speaker 2: to know that they're gonna be there, and I don't. 824 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 2: I think I may be a little bit higher on 825 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 2: him than you are, but I'm not. I'm not just 826 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,720 Speaker 2: rushing out to go get me some Alexander Madison. 827 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 3: Two other real quick things is one I keep seeing 828 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 3: people say like, well they got rid of Dalvin Cook 829 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 3: for him, that how confident they are in him. Well, no, 830 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,879 Speaker 3: it was all because of money, Like, yeah, they gave 831 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 3: Alexander Madison backup running back money. And then they're talking 832 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,919 Speaker 3: about bringing in Kareem Hunt potentially ty Chandler look good. 833 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,239 Speaker 3: And then I know you can only play who is 834 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 3: on the schedule. But Alexander Madison when he has been 835 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 3: in relief, it has been mostly against the Lions and 836 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 3: Seahawks for years were the two worst run defenses in football. Again, 837 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 3: kudos to you for taking advantage of the bad matchups. 838 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 3: But he's gonna get much tougher defenses all year long 839 00:39:58,920 --> 00:39:59,439 Speaker 3: than those two. 840 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't. 841 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 2: I don't know that they've moved Alexander or they let 842 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 2: Alexander Madison, or Doalvin Cook go for Alexander Madison. They 843 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 2: let Dalvin Cook go and Alexander Madison was there as 844 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 2: the X man up sort of thing. 845 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 1: I think. 846 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 2: I think those are two different things that you know, 847 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 2: you really need to sort of sort of keep in 848 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 2: mind there. How many are you in any slow drafts 849 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 2: going on? 850 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 3: Like right now, I'm only in like two right now, 851 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 3: but I'll probably jump in a couple more. 852 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm kind of in one. As I say here, 853 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 2: I should like, let me check in make sure I'm 854 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 2: not on the clock for this one. It's have we 855 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 2: have you taken a full accounting of how many leagues 856 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 2: you're gonna be in yet? 857 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 3: No, because I've realized that this week my redrafts have 858 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 3: only like I've done so many drafts, but they've all 859 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 3: been best ball. Mm hm that now I'm like, oh, 860 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 3: these are the leagues I need to play out, so right, 861 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,959 Speaker 3: I already know it's gonna be more than I want 862 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 3: it to be. I'm hoping to keep it in the 863 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,399 Speaker 3: single digits. But we talk about it all the time. 864 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 3: Every year, we're like we're cutting back and then someone 865 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 3: multiple people usually are like, you want to play in 866 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 3: my fantasy league? 867 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 2: Right? Yeah, it's the same thing for me. I'm uh, 868 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 2: I'm sitting here on my pre draft picks as I 869 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 2: talk here, I'm trying to. Last year was fourteen.
