1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 1: Wow, what's up everybody?

2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: Welcome to another edition of The Fantasy Chee Chet. I'm

3
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 2: Marcus Grant with Michael F. Florio Lakwan Jones. Is I

4
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 2: believe in an airport. He might be sitting at LAX

5
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 2: right now, if I'm not mistaken, He's on his way

6
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: to Tampa. We're gonna talk a lot of stuff here.

7
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 2: Let's let's let's kind of dive into to some of

8
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 2: these things here. First off, George Kittle, I don't know

9
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 2: if you saw this, says that he lost almost thirty

10
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: pounds after off season core surgery. He didn't have a

11
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 2: chance to lift, he couldn't really work out because he

12
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 2: was still sort of recovering.

13
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 3: He says he's working to try and gain that weight back.

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 2: I always like to jokingly text or a tweet about

15
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 2: your hashtag BSh B s Ohl best shape of his life.

16
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: Losing thirty pounds does not feel like best shape of

17
00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: his life, though, Like that seems sort of concerning, right,

18
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 2: He's in the.

19
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 4: Worst shape of his life. That's what it sounds like

20
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 4: to me. Oh, I mean, gaining weight is very especially

21
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 4: like muscle and stuff like. Look, he's a world class

22
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 4: athlete with world class trainers, so he'll be okay in

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 4: the long run, but like to put on thirty pounds

24
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 4: by September while doing training camp and all the cardio

25
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 4: that they're gonna be doing in the blazing heat. It's

26
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 4: remarkable to me that like football players can keep their

27
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 4: physique because like one thing that stood out for me

28
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: when I watched the last Dance was like they were like, yeah,

29
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 4: Michael Jordan does so much cardio, he can't put on muscle,

30
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 4: and it's like, because they must be eating and lifting

31
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 4: like absolute madmen. But I am concerned about this because George.

32
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 4: What makes George Kittles so great is his physicality, that

33
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 4: he's hard to tackle, that he's he the yak he

34
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 4: puts up in everything. So if he's not himself in

35
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 4: that regard that Plus, he's also coming off his best

36
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 4: year in the last four years, so I wouldn't be

37
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 4: surprised if he naturally regressed a little bit. I don't

38
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 4: know about you, Marcus, Like I know he goes in

39
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 4: that middle tight end tier with like Dalton Kincaid, Kyle Pitts.

40
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 4: I don't find myself really drafting George Kittle much at all.

41
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 2: I have drafted him a couple of times. I don't

42
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 2: know if this is going to back me off of

43
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 2: that a little bit. And I feel like he is

44
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: sort of he sort of straddles that borderline of the

45
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 2: back end of like the if you want to call

46
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 2: him elite or certainly the higher tier tight ends, right Like,

47
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 2: he's kind of at that cutoff in part mostly because

48
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: of what the forty nine ers ask him to do.

49
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 3: It's not about I think his skill set.

50
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: I think if you line up his skill set with

51
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: all the other top level tight ends, he is still

52
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 2: on par with those guys. But and I say, this

53
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: is somebody who watches the forty nine ers a lot

54
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 2: that sometimes they just will use it as the facto

55
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,040
Speaker 2: sixth linemen, right, Like, he's such a big part of

56
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 2: the run game that you know, sometimes they will just

57
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 2: keep him in to block a lot, so he may

58
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 2: not run as many routes as we want in Fantasy.

59
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 3: Right.

60
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 2: So it just, uh, it's it's a little bit for

61
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 2: not frustrating, but it's it's concerning. I think is the

62
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 2: best the best way to sort of sort of describe it. Yeah, no, Maggie,

63
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: he said, he's he's lost almost thirty pounds. I think

64
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: he's gonna try. I don't think he's gonna gain all

65
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 2: thirty back. I don't, I don't. I don't know if

66
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,920
Speaker 2: it's healthy to try to get thirty like that quickly,

67
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 2: you know, but he's definitely gonna try and put some

68
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 2: of that back on, you know, try to gain that

69
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 2: strength back. I think most importantly for him is just

70
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: trying to get the uh the strength back a little

71
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: bit for for him.

72
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 3: Uh yeah.

73
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: I think mister Scamps makes a good point. I think

74
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: it's interesting when when NFL players retire. I think the

75
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 2: the offensive linemen tend to slim down and like the

76
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 2: guys who are smaller, like your skill position guys tend

77
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 2: to like kind of bulka. I'm not bolka, but like

78
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: you know, like they don't have to work out as much.

79
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 2: So it's like, yeah, man, you're just gonna put on

80
00:03:59,440 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: some pounds.

81
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: Say different.

82
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 4: If I had to be in the best shape of

83
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 4: my life for ten years and be super disciplined, the

84
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 4: moment I retired, I'd be like, I'm eating whatever I

85
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,119
Speaker 4: want and I do not care.

86
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, one hundred percent, Like I'm just gonna like

87
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 2: let it go. Or speaking of tight ends a little

88
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 2: bit here, This one from Jimbo. What's brock Bauer's ceiling?

89
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on brock Bauers this year.

90
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 4: I think his ceiling is something like a low end

91
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 4: tight end one. Like right now I'm looking at my rankings,

92
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 4: I have him at thirteen, just behind Hockinson, Dallas Goddard, Ferguson,

93
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 4: in Djoku, Evan Ingram. If he outscored some of it,

94
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 4: like if he outscored Dallas Goddard, I wouldn't be surprised

95
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 4: at all if but I don't foresee him coming in

96
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 4: and doing anything like what Sam Laporta did last year.

97
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 4: Or maybe he could have like a Dalton kin K

98
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 4: type rookie year where he has a stretch where it's

99
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 4: he's really useful for fantasy, but overall more of like

100
00:04:58,640 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 4: a low end tight end one.

101
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 3: I like his talent a lot.

102
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 4: I know you do as well, Marcus. I just I

103
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 4: don't love the quarterback play necessarily, and I think the

104
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 4: Raiders are going to try to be like a ground

105
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 4: and pound team like that. That's what they want their

106
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 4: identity to be if it's up to them. So plus,

107
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 4: Davante Adams is going to get a thirty percent target share,

108
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 4: Jacoby Myers is going to get twenty percent right there,

109
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 4: that's half the target's accounting for.

110
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

111
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 2: I mean, that's my big concern is that there's so

112
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: many places to go with the football, right, You've got

113
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: to feed Devonte Adams, You've got to get Jacoby Myers involved.

114
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 2: Can Gardner Minshew support this many pass catchers in the offense? Look,

115
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: I liked Michael Mayer coming out of Notre Dame. I

116
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 2: thought he was going to be a big part of

117
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: the Raider offense. I thought it was starting to happen

118
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 2: later on in the season. Now all of a sudden,

119
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 2: he's got to compete for snaps and targets with a

120
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 2: guy who is was a monster in terms of his

121
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 2: offensive potential, his offensive production at the University of Georgia.

122
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 3: I just think that puts a cap on his ceiling.

123
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 2: And I think to your point, though, I think I

124
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 2: think he could be a low into one. But I

125
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 2: think that's more about the fact that after a certain point,

126
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: being a low and tight end one is sort of

127
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 2: it's a roll of the dice, right, Like you just

128
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 2: there are any number of guys who can sort of

129
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: slot in there. I mean, I think we were all

130
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 2: sort of disappointed by the landing spot for Bowers because

131
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 2: we were hoping that he would go to a place

132
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 2: where he could, uh, you know, thrive. I mean, Sam

133
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 2: Laporta was the best of everything, right, a talented player

134
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 2: who also landed in a spot where there was no

135
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: real competition for opportunity.

136
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: That's not the case at all, uh for the Raiders.

137
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 4: For me, the earliest I think I would take him

138
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 4: is tight End eleven because I wanted to see if

139
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 4: you I think we all agree like Kincaid, Pitt's Kittle,

140
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 4: they're all firmly ahead of him. But would you take

141
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 4: him over any of Evan, Ingram, David and Joku Jake Ferguson.

142
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 3: I don't know that I would.

143
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 2: Ingram's the one I might think about, just because I

144
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 2: think I think what we saw from Ingram last year

145
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 2: was sort of a product of circumstances. You had a

146
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 2: lot of guys who were hurt, but the A dot

147
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: was really really low for him, And so if people

148
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 2: stay healthy and he has that similar AID dot, like,

149
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 2: I think the production goes way down. I'm still sort

150
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 2: of in on in Djoku, and I'm still sort of

151
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: believing in Ferguson.

152
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't know. I just maybe I'm still

153
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 3: in my feelings a little bit.

154
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 4: No, because for me, I would take all of those

155
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 4: guys over Bowers. And that's why eleven would be the

156
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 4: early because like, yeah, Ferguson, I'm like, Okay, he's playing

157
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 4: with dak Is potentially his number two target. Like that's

158
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 4: a way better situation. Bowers is the better talent. I'm

159
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 4: not denying that, but quarterback play matters so much.

160
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, you're You're absolutely right. A rat say Minshew

161
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 2: kept Pittman fantasy relevant. I have a feeling he can

162
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: keep Myers and Adam Adams relevant too.

163
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 3: I think you can keep one, maybe two of those

164
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 3: guys relevant.

165
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 2: But asking him, but now, if you have to go

166
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 2: down the ladder to you know, a Bowers, a Myers

167
00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 2: or a Michael Meyer whoever may or who.

168
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 3: I don't, I don't. I don't really know about that

169
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 3: necessarily at all.

170
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: Uh.

171
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 2: Another one from ailiar Rod, Jermaine Burton or Roman Wilson.

172
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 2: I think I know who you like in this one,

173
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 2: but I'm gonna ask you anyway.

174
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 4: I do think Roman Wilson is a little bit of

175
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 4: a sleeper because I tend to trust Mike Tomlin and

176
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 4: the Steelers when they invest in a wide receiver, and

177
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 4: he could be the number two wide receiver probably number

178
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 4: three target. But yeah, give me Jermaine Burton because I

179
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 4: think the upside. I think he's the better prospect. I

180
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 4: think the upside is far higher. I think Joe Burrow

181
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 4: is a much better quarterback. And Tee Higgins miss five

182
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 4: games last year, Jamar chasemss five games the year before that.

183
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 4: If something like that was to happen, I think Burton

184
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 4: is gonna greatly exceed his ADP regardless. But if one

185
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 4: of those guys misses time, we're talking about him being

186
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 4: a wide receiver three with more upside.

187
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think I'm definitely more on the

188
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 2: Burton side of things, mostly because, uh the camp reports.

189
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 2: Not that not that anything bad has been said about Wilson,

190
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: but more like when I hear things like the Steelers

191
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 2: are still looking for a number two receiver, that the

192
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 2: Steelers are still looking for wide receiver, that that you know,

193
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 2: when Brandon Ayuk's name, you know, shows up in trade rumors,

194
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 2: like the Steelers are like the first ones in line

195
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 2: potentially to make a deal for him. That to me

196
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 2: sort of says that maybe they're not all in on

197
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 2: on Roman Wilson just yet.

198
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 3: That's that's my only real concern about Wilson. Uh. You

199
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 3: know right now, have you seen the Ravens new alternate helmet? Uh?

200
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 4: Only because you posted it in in this uh in

201
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 4: the cheat sheet doc. But I I don't know how

202
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 4: to feel about it. It It looks really cool to me,

203
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 4: but I'm like, it looks also like a Pokemon card.

204
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: My first thought was like, I mean, for me watching

205
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 2: like college football, like East Carolina, like, it just felt

206
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 2: like the East Carolina Pirates or something like.

207
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: I don't know.

208
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: I felt like when I saw it posted that the

209
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: reaction was sort of mixed.

210
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 3: Some people are like, this is fire. I love it.

211
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 2: Some people are like, hmm, pass, And I think I'm

212
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 2: closer to pass than fire.

213
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 4: It gives me like X Like if if one of

214
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 4: the teams in like like the XFL was wearing this,

215
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 4: I'd be like, yeah, that makes sense.

216
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 2: Right right, That's yeah, I'm not I don't know if

217
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 2: I'm totally in on this this new Raven's helmet.

218
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 3: If you guys haven't seen it, it's all purple like they.

219
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 3: I don't know.

220
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 2: There's a kind of an alternate logo and alternate Ravens

221
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 2: logo on it.

222
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 3: It just I don't know. I'm not really feeling it

223
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: right now. I'm I don't know. Go look it up.

224
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 2: You know, you guys can put in the chat if

225
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 2: you've seen it, let me know what you guys think.

226
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 2: I'm not really I'm not really big on it. This

227
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 2: one from I am him. Have you ever played in

228
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 2: a sixteen man league and what advice would you give

229
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 2: in drafting a team PPR redraft. Ah, My first thing

230
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 2: is one, make sure you get a I think I

231
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 2: think you got to get a running back early, just

232
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 2: because I feel like that. No, never freeze that. I

233
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 2: think you get a wide receiver early. I think they're

234
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 2: gonna go quick in a sixteen person league. Make sure

235
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 2: you get yourself an elite wide receiver in the first

236
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 2: two rounds because people go wide receiver heavy and I

237
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: think I think they're gonna go away.

238
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 3: Really really quickly. I don't know if you have any

239
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 3: any other advice there for you.

240
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I have played in sixteen person league. I will

241
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 4: say they're not that much fun.

242
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 3: People.

243
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 4: People are always like it takes more skill in a

244
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 4: really deep league, and I counter that with the team

245
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 4: that has the least amount of injuries almost always wins

246
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 4: because you can't replace guys when they get hurt because

247
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 4: the waiver wires still thin. But because of that, my

248
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 4: advice is to take less chances. Like I know, I'm

249
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 4: the guy that's always like grab an upside guy and

250
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 4: that is how I played twelve team leagues. But in

251
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 4: sixteen team leagues sometimes guys who are just more consistent

252
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 4: and played to the back of their card are a

253
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 4: better option than taking a gamble early because again, the

254
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 4: waiver wire is going to be in It's not like

255
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 4: you can replace people easily.

256
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I think that. I think that's fair. Do

257
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 2: we like Naje or Warren Moore say, which you one

258
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 2: about Arthur Smith? Arthur Smith, which he was sort of

259
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 2: evil last year Arthur's but he made running a highlight

260
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 2: in Atlanta? Are you are you team Nase or team

261
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 2: Jalen Warren.

262
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 4: I'm team Jalen Warren because I know I just said, oh,

263
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 4: don't take as much risk, but yeah, I'm gonna go

264
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 4: with the upside there and Jalen Warren I believe is

265
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 4: the better pass catcher. He's more explosive. He definitely has

266
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 4: more bursts and make more big playability. Naji Harris is

267
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 4: more of the steady floor guy, like he's gonna get

268
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 4: a consistent workload every week. He'll probably get the goal

269
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 4: on work most weeks, but those those big weeks that

270
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 4: could kind of change things that Jalen Warren is that guy.

271
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 4: Although I wouldn't be surprised at all of Marcus and

272
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 4: you could tell me if you think I'm wrong, but

273
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 4: if this backfield operates pretty similarly to.

274
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 3: How it did last season, I think it kind of will.

275
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 2: I am definitely more Jalen Warren than naj Harris because

276
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 2: I think he's more I'm also not one of those

277
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 2: people who's like, hey man, he was really great. He

278
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 2: should get more touches. Like I think he really works

279
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 2: in the role that he had last year. Now, if

280
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 2: something happens to Najee Harris, then he gets more opportunity,

281
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 2: and I think that's a good thing. But I think

282
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 2: his value is staying in that same role but remaining

283
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 2: as explosive and productive as he did last year. I

284
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 2: don't I don't want this to be a Tony Pollard

285
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 2: situation right where he was like, yeah, he was really great,

286
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 2: and then he gets a whole lot more touches and

287
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: then it's just not cool.

288
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 3: It's not great at all for him. Let's see that's what.

289
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 2: Oh the chief super Bowl ring they had a typo

290
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 2: on it, so here it is. It's first off, it's

291
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 2: their third ring in five years, so nobody's really feeling

292
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 2: bad about the Kansas City Chiefs. But it lists all

293
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 2: the teams they beat in the playoffs, and it has

294
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 2: the Dolphins listed as a seventh seed when they were

295
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 2: really a.

296
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 3: Sixth seed in the playoffs.

297
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey says the ring error makes it more exclusive,

298
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 2: which at first done. At first, I was kind of like, yeah,

299
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 2: he's sort of right, and then I'm like, wait a minute,

300
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 2: it's already an exclusive Super Bowl ring.

301
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 3: They're not just like handing these out on the street.

302
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 3: What are you doing?

303
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 4: My thing is like, okay, you got their seed wrong,

304
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 4: but it was round one, so you guys know what

305
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: seeds you are? Like you knew, I know. They're they're

306
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 4: so used to being a top two seed every year

307
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 4: and getting the number one seed every year. Blah blah blah.

308
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,119
Speaker 4: You guys were with a three seed.

309
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 2: Like, come on, that's not like some Bill's frustration right there,

310
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: like just a little but it didn't like when I

311
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: read the thing about it makes it more exclusive. Are

312
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 2: you old enough to remember the infamous Billy Ripkin baseball

313
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 2: card that became a collector's item?

314
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 3: No so so.

315
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 2: Bill Ripkin the brother of Cal Ripkin and an okay

316
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 2: major league career, definitely not as good as his brother's,

317
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 2: but he had a baseball card where it's him holding

318
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 2: a bat and on the bottom of the bat was written, uh,

319
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: an explosive F face you know, F dot dot dot

320
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 2: face was written on the handle of the path.

321
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 4: I'm looking at it right now.

322
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 2: And like a few of those like slipped through and

323
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: made it out into circulation. It got caught they you know,

324
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 2: I think they made a new one where they just

325
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 2: blurted out and you couldn't see it. But if you

326
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 2: have one of the original ones, it's worth a little

327
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 2: bit extra because it's somehow slipped through all the through

328
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 2: all the editors a little bit and made it made

329
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 2: it out into the world. That's kind of what I thought,

330
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 2: Like that is a collector's item, Like that is something

331
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 2: that's exclusive because like you know, it was a major

332
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: mistake that somehow got through.

333
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 4: I love like when the little the car companies will

334
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 4: like print like a name wrong or something like that.

335
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 4: You would think and everyone would be like, why would

336
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 4: I want this? It's wrong, But in actuality it just

337
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 4: everyone wants it, and its value goes through the roof.

338
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, it definitely.

339
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 2: It blows up the value of it because it is

340
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 2: you realize that it's a mistake and like you know, hey, man,

341
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 2: like this is this is poticially some that could be

342
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 2: be worthwhile here. That will do it for another edition

343
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 2: of the Fantasy cheat Sheet of thanks a Susie has

344
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 2: always for putting this together. And uh LaQuan be safe man,

345
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: I hopefully hope Florida. Did you give him some spots

346
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 2: to eat in Tampa? I know that's where he's going

347
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 2: to be for the next couple.

348
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 4: I realized that he's probably too far from the places

349
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 4: that I know because my parents live like a little

350
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 4: bit outside of Tampa. So if you're in the city,

351
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 4: you probably don't want to drive thirty minutes for food.

352
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 2: So that's fair. Yeah, that's absolutely fair. That'll do it

353
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 2: for this edition of the fantasy cheat Sheet. Appreciate you
