You're a good point about. We 14 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: don't want playing against these guys who put in thousands 15 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 1: the last week. Last week we did this. We didn't 16 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: do the single entry. You gotta do the single entry 17 00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: because if you don't, you're gonna get in there against 18 00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: some but he who puts in twenty lineups, and actually 19 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: there'll be multiple people who put in twenty lineups and 20 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: excuse a lot of stuff. Yeah, so we're doing a 21 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: single entry here, we'll look at the defenses first, and 22 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: I already know Matt where you're gonna go on defense. 23 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: We'll start at the bottom defenses. So the Falcons are 24 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: one hundred, No, the Texans are, Yeah, the Bengals are. 25 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: Why are the Bengals only dollars? Again, there's another good 26 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: one here. The Jets are, the Browns are, and the 27 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 1: Browns aren't going to run away from any uh yet. 28 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: The Titans a hundred, the Jaguars at I'm interested to 29 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: think him to win, the Dolphins at maybe. Yeah. I 30 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: mean Cincinnati's insanely low to me. Yeah, uh this the 31 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: Saints at hundred. You get a really good defense at 32 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: a bargain, and they've gave given Brady fits. Yeah, but 33 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: it's still Brady. Get it? Yeah, I get it. The Cardinals. 34 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and look at the other end. On 35 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: the other end of the spectrum. The Rams are four thousand, 36 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: the forty nine or thirty nine hundreds, Yeah, the Broncos 37 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: are thirty eight hundred, The Browns are thirty seven. Jets 38 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: are yeah. Extreme against the Jets. The Ravens are thirty 39 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: six hundred, the Culture hundred, The Bucks are thirty three hundred, 40 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: The Giants are thirty two hundred. The Bills Monday Night 41 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: are thirty one. That's not bad. I mean, I think 42 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: that Titans offense is bad. The Raiders are thirty one hundred. 43 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: The Panthers against the Giants are three thousand. You know 44 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: my love affair about the Packers, I haven't heard that yet. 45 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: That's not bad too. I mean, if you think they're 46 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: going to blow them out, and you know, um, the 47 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: Patriots and Steelers are right and extra times. The Patriots 48 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: are twenty nine hundreds of Steelers are eight hundred. They're 49 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 1: both good. Yeah. The Commander are not bad. No, the 50 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: Lions are undred. Excuse me. The Vikings are Eagles the Seahawks. 51 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: Do you think Lands throws a couple to the other team? Maybe? Yeah, 52 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: I think the I think the I think the Bengals 53 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: are gonna be Chalky this week. I think a lot 54 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: of people are gonna play the Bengals if you won't 55 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 1: avoid him for that reason, that's fine to me. That 56 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: looks like a screw up by them. That that's way 57 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: too cheap. I don't even care if it was. I 58 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: don't know. Cardinals are a bad. Defense against Dallas is 59 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: a great matchup. For me, and I think since yet, 60 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: I think you just go with it and assume that everybody, 61 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be like ownership. So if you don't 62 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: have it and they go off, you're gonna be hurt. 63 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: If they do have them and they don't go off, 64 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: you're not really hurt that badly. And it's only say 65 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: it's unbelievably cheap. I'd be if we were doing multiple 66 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: line ups. I'd be interested in the Packers too, but 67 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: I think the bank goals are way too low. Yeah, 68 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: I agree. Okay, let's go ahead and look at tight ends. Now, 69 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: obviously we won't have no Kelsey this week, so so ye, 70 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: Mark Andrews at maybe uh George Kittle, he's question, but 71 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: he's probably not play Darren Waller at fifty high scoring 72 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: game and they last year they they didn't cover tight ends. 73 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: Last year they were thirty first, they were second worse 74 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: than last week covering uh, so fifty for him, it's 75 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: not a bad pay up there. It's not out of this. 76 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: I would think about it. Yeah, Kyle Pitts is hundred. 77 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: Do you think there's an adjustment there this week? I 78 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: think he's do. I mean, the tape was great Uh, 79 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz is hundred. You saw this success fire Muth 80 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: had against Okay, I'm just saying I get it, but 81 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: I know, Uh Hockinson is, Dallas Goddard is interesting, zach 82 00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:00,559 Speaker 1: Ert he's questionable though. Friar Muth is forty four hundred. 83 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't start him. He's only part of the offense anymore. 84 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: Tyler Higby is forty two. They trust him, he gets 85 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: a lot of balls, and they're playing Atlanta. I'm yeah, interesting. 86 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 1: I think Robinson steps up. Noah Fan four thousand. He 87 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: doesn't hardly even play. Philippe by Franks, who's listed now 88 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: is a tight end? Who does he play for Atlanta? 89 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: Remember he was a quarterback? He is four thousand. Cameraon 90 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,559 Speaker 1: Braid is thirty nine hundred. Dawson Knox at thirty hundred. 91 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: That seems low. Why Why is he below Atlanta's backup 92 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: tight end. Robert Tonyan is thirty eight hundred. I would 93 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: think his role grows. I would think, yeah, I think 94 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 1: now that he's back, and I don't mind that one. 95 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: I like both those. David and Joeku is thirty seven hundred, 96 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: that's okay. Albert O is thirty seven hundred. I don't 97 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: mind that either. Hunter Henry is thirty six hundred, Evan 98 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,239 Speaker 1: Ingram is thirty six hundred, Hayden Hurst thirty six hundred. 99 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: Colkomet I think the Bengals will is Hurst more than 100 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: they've used tight ends in the past. Iv Smith, Tyler, Conklin, 101 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: Logan Thomas is not bad. I think that I like 102 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: the offense. I kind of like Smith. In that neighborhood. 103 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: There was four right around Albert, Oh that I thought 104 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: were good values. They were all like right in a row. 105 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: Do we want to overthink this or do we want 106 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,600 Speaker 1: to just I mean, I think Waller is this. It's 107 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: pretty solid. If we need the money later, we can 108 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: come back. Yeah, let's remember we have some cash. I 109 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: think Waller is going to be a I think he's 110 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: a slam dunked this. Yeah. I wonder if he's Chalky 111 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 1: with Kelsey being off the board, maybe maybe whatever. I 112 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: don't care about the Chalky argument. The best team. Let's 113 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: go ahead and look at quarterbacks now. Josh Allen is 114 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is seventy. I'm interested. Lamar Jackson seventy. He 115 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: ran twice last week. You don't he didn't have to 116 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: but that's a that's a note for me, I know, 117 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: on them with Jalen Hurts. Russell Wilson is seventy two hundred. 118 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: I don't think so. Joe Burrow is sixty six hundred. 119 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: I'd be interested. They might shut that down early, though, 120 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: they might if they they're getting a bunch of Turners 121 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: Higgins practice today. Yeah, Aaron Rodgers is I don't like 122 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: the weapons. Kirk Cousins is six d, Tom Brady is hundred, 123 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, Derek Carr six. I know Stafford didn't look good, 124 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,679 Speaker 1: but they should win by a lot. Carson Wentz is fifty. 125 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: I just brushed over car cars million yards. And if 126 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: we're going to Waller, we could, we could get a 127 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: we could actually would probably be Afford Davante Adams there 128 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: as well, and really stack it if we wanted to. 129 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: I I said this in the first segment, not knowing 130 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: where he was. I was like, I think cars gonna 131 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: be our quarter. That's pretty cheap. It's pretty cheap. Yeah, 132 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: he's good. That's a terrible defense. We have the tight end. 133 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I think he outscores like Rogers. Yeah, I 134 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: think he's I mean he could throw for four d 135 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: he could or a five touchdown PA and the Cardinals 136 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: are going to score enough against them to force them. No, 137 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: they're not gonna sit on it. Yeah, I think cars 138 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: real nice pace. Let's do that, all right. We can 139 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: come back pretty cheap. It's pretty cheap for starting quarterback 140 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: and one of the better quarterbacks in the league. Let's 141 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: just take a look now what Davante Adams cost. He's 142 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: six hundred. Cooper Cup is Have you ever seen someone's 143 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: ten thousand um? Did that happen? No? Not that, I 144 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: not that. Justin Jefferson Adams eighty six hundred. So it's 145 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: actually kind of a bargain when you look at the 146 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: other I think he's last week. He shouldn't be how 147 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 1: much difference than the Cup he is. He shouldn't be 148 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: that much. I mean they should be about the same 149 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,599 Speaker 1: to me. But with Jefferson Chase, I think should be 150 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: in that neighborhood too. I mean, we have an average. 151 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: We have thirty six thousand dollars remaining, so we can 152 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: average six thousand per player the rest of the way. Now, 153 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 1: we haven't picked a running back, but I bet we 154 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: could find some running backs that we like in and 155 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: what what we're is, I'm fine throwing atoms in there 156 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: and building from there. I mean, we're really betting on 157 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: the Raiders here. Let's the only think it's gonna That's 158 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 1: the team I want to build on this year, this week. Um. 159 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: So if we do that, then we can skip over 160 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: all the upper price we're not going to go for. 161 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 1: Let's get down to the We'll get down to the 162 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: four thousands here, see if we can find some bargains. 163 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 1: I'll bet we do. I was thinking of somebody that 164 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: was should be super cheap this week, mm hmm, starting 165 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: at starting at for the four thousand, which is basically 166 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: a low lines starting Kedrick Borne is four thousand, US 167 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: him more, but yeah, Westbrooker kna is four thousand, Nico 168 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: Collins is equinamius. St. Brown is that's the wrong St. Brown. Yeah, 169 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: Johan Dotson is Yeah, that's not bad. He's good. Yeah. 170 00:09:55,240 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: Um what's Curtis Samuel za Jones? It's not bad. I 171 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: know I don't like him as a player, so I'm 172 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,959 Speaker 1: to precuice against him. But that doesn't matter, you know, 173 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: I know, it's all about the points man. Who who 174 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: do you want to know about Curtis Samuel when you 175 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: brought up thoughts on he's fort they hand him the 176 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: football and he's healthy, I mean he may let's put it. 177 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: We gotta put him in. Yeah, he's a good player. 178 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: I mean he may get hurt in the first quarter 179 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: be out for the year, but you know, so, let's 180 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: see if we got with one more wide receiver here, 181 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: let's look in that neighborhood again. Here, um Jarvis Landry's 182 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: five thousand him down the field last week to defense 183 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 1: a Davonte Smith. If you think that's gonna be a 184 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: he's not gonna cut zero again? Yeah? Right. You think 185 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna uh Chase Claypo You think clay I'm inside note. 186 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: You think Claypool gets carries every week? Or is that? 187 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean he's not get six, but I mean, yeah, 188 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: he's not getting I don't know if he gets six, 189 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: but he'll get some may get twenty more of the 190 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: rest of the year. About Corey Davis at not terrible. 191 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: If you think they're going to be behind again, their 192 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,839 Speaker 1: receiver usage was interesting. More is the one and I 193 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 1: didn't realize that he was that strongly of the one. 194 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: And Davis and Wilson are like they split the rest. 195 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,839 Speaker 1: But that's not bad. But seemingly every time Davis was 196 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: on the field he got targeted. I mean lost sixty times. 197 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: I mean the running backs a lot too, and Davis Donovan. 198 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: People's Jones is eleven targets last week. I don't think 199 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: the mar is very good. UM got Duverna at as 200 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: I mentioned z A Jones at um thoughts and at 201 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: we were. I don't know if I want to commanders. Um, 202 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: I don't mind People's Jones for that price. Um, Nico 203 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: Collins was really cheap. You mentioned before. George Pickens is thirty. 204 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,839 Speaker 1: Do you think he's a squeaky wheel? Not that he's 205 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: been complaining, but I bet he gets more targets this 206 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: week than last. I bet he does. He usually gets 207 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: good things when they throw in the wall. Yes, he 208 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 1: would you say it was do it? I mean that 209 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 1: allows us to get some big times now we can 210 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: Now we can load up at running back again. Here 211 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: in flex we got an average, we got three spots 212 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: to picker. We get an average of sixty four hundred 213 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: dollars to spend per spot, and we got Davonte Adams 214 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: in the lineup and Waller and Waller so I'm feeling 215 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: pretty good about it. Again. We always have to do 216 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 1: is finish in the top fIF to here, okay, Jonathan Taylor, 217 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: I don't think they win, so no, um in flex here, 218 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: let me let me okay, Christian McCaffrey's eighty nine hundred, 219 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: it's pretty pricey. Yeah, there's a lot of backs. I'm 220 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: gonna like Derrick Henry's eighty three hundred, Dalvin Cook eighty 221 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: two hundred, maybe Dalvin tomar sev. The injuries looming, Yeah, 222 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: he didn't run a lot of routes last week. Se 223 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,719 Speaker 1: Kwam Barkley seventy. You have to like the usage. The 224 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: usage will remain the same, And I don't We picked 225 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: Carolina A to win, but I don't think it's learn 226 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 1: to get blown out. Yeah, no, hang around and Barko 227 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: get him. That would be slightly over budgets, So we 228 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: have to look and see if there's somebody under budget 229 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: that we'd really like to put in that spot. The 230 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: guy I want to know the price of when we 231 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: get to Joe Mixon is seventy, Nick Chubb is seventy one, 232 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: Swift is seven thousand, James Conner, Aaron Jones hundred. That's 233 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: pretty cheap for Jones uh four, Net is sixty seven, 234 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt sixty six hundred, Javanta is sixty Javonte, Jones 235 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: and Barkley are my favorite ones you've mentioned so far, Okay, Nausea. 236 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: Harris is sixty two hundred. S Gibs in it's not bad. 237 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: That's not bad at all. He caught the ball through 238 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: much more than more than any game of his career. 239 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon is sixty one hundred, Alexander Madison six thousand, 240 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: called Darryl Patterson's six thousand? Is he Patterson's not bad? Yeah? 241 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: What's his face? Williams has been rolled out behind him. 242 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: I don't think he's particularly good, you know what I mean? 243 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: But he's a number one back cheap. I like those 244 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: other three names better. Ezekie, Eliott, Jodge s Jacobs hundred, 245 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 1: A j Dillont hundred. Yeah right, he cut cut some passes, 246 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: Yeah right right. I think they're gonna win. Yeah, if 247 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: you think he's gonna get, you know, get that same 248 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: kind of split. I don't even consider Jones and Ilan. 249 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: Yeah that's the Bears. Tony Pollard is hundred. I don't 250 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: want David Montgomery's fifty seven. I think he might lose 251 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: his job to Herbert before he might Henderson Darrell Henderson's 252 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: he's the one playing the Falcons. Put him in the line. 253 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: People must not think that he's the one yet he 254 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: was Like, say, Miles Sanders is fifty hundred. That's pretty 255 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: good too, Yeah, Um, James Robinson is fifty six hundred. 256 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: Travis a t N is fifty hundred. I trust a 257 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: t N more than what happened in Week one. Cam 258 00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: Acres d Devin's singletary ist d. He's number one back 259 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: on maybe the best offense in the league against a 260 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: bad team. Uh, Damien Harris against the Steelers. I would 261 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: pay for Stevenson over Harris, um Rashad Penny, Jamal Williams 262 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: if he were. It looks like Swift's gonna play, But 263 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: will we play as much? Here's here's your bargain basement. Like, okay, 264 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson, that's a yes, isn't. I mean he's the 265 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: number one if you do that. If if we do that, 266 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: that leaves us hundred for a flex. Who does that 267 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: get us somebody? Is that Barkley or even better than Barkley? 268 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: That gets us close? Actually, we can get. We can 269 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: get Barkley and still have left if we wanted to, 270 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: we could spend up somewhere else. Okay, so let's let's 271 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: say Barkley. That gives us eleven thousand undred. I should 272 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: say if we want to spend up on Hender's and Wilson, 273 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: we don't want to spend up. We can't spend up 274 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: on Davonte, and we could with Cooper Cup if we want. 275 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: I think that's too big a gap. But you can 276 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 1: spend up on Curtis Samuel's George pickens Um would get 277 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: us to like Javonte neighborhood or Aaron Jones neighborhood in 278 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: the running back world. Probably not. Let me look here, 279 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: I think it does. Actually, really, if we could trade 280 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: one of those backs, we could get Aaron Jones. If 281 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: we do that move, who would we who would we 282 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: be ditching? That would be cutting Henderson if we cut 283 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: Wilson's price here than Wilson right, if we If we 284 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: cut Wilson, we we can get Well, we can't get 285 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: Javonte if we do that, but we can have Javante. 286 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: I think Wilson and Henderson are real bargains. But I 287 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: really wouldn't mind having Aaron Jones or Javante we got okay, 288 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: if we if we switched that out and make Javonte 289 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: and then go with Henderson, What does that do for us? 290 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: You're saying, Ditch Wilson, can we get can we get Henderson? 291 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: We can't get Henderson that we have fifty. Then you 292 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: said we could turn Henderson into Jones. Though, we can 293 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: turn Henderson into Jones. Yes, I like that. Let me 294 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: find him here. I think green baby nuts. If they 295 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: don't feel feed Jones a lot more, and I bet 296 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: and I'll bet he catches more passes this week as well. 297 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: All right, And Jeff Wilson is I think we're turning 298 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: our back on a good deal with Henderson. But I think, yeah, 299 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: we got some good Barns defense. I think Pickens. Pickens 300 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 1: won't be at thirty again the rest of the year. 301 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: How many targets think he gets seven six or seven? Yeah, 302 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: those corners aren't. And I think Curtis Samuel's is getting 303 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: don't get the ball? Yeah, No, I like that. So 304 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: Jones we got okay. So what we we have we're 305 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: zero now. So what we have is Derek cart quarterback 306 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: at Raider madness, Aaron Jones at running back at sixty 307 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: eight under Jeff Wilson Jr. Running back at fifty one. 308 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: He won't be that cheap the rest of the way either. No, 309 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: I mean unless for some reason Shenana and again happens 310 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 1: or whatever. But it looks like the number one Davante Adams, 311 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: Curtis Samu went hundred, he won't be that cheap again. 312 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: George Pickens at thirty six hundred won't be that cheap again. 313 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 1: Darren Waller fifty six hundred. That might be as cheap 314 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: as you get him this year. I mean, with Kittle injury, 315 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: Pitts being up in the air, and Kelsey already played. 316 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: He's the number one, number one down, Uh say Kwam 317 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: Barkley at that might be as cheap as you get 318 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: him the rest of I don't care if they lose 319 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: by a million, He's gonna get the ball a lot. 320 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: And then the Bengals defense against a terrible Dallas up 321 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: locking it in. That's the That's the line up this week, folks, 322 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: play it and win it. Speaking of winning, it is 323 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 1: time for our pick for this week. Matt, you want 324 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: to go ahead and give us your your knowledge or 325 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: your wisdom. I got the Patriots sixteen, Steelers seventeen Bards. 326 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a real low paste slog. 327 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: Coaching decisions, special teams, not a lot of big plays, 328 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: play it close to the vest, and I think the 329 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: home team wins. I'm with you, Um, you know, I 330 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: got I know I got called at Homer last week 331 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: and some things, but I was right and I told 332 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: you exactly how it was going to happen a little 333 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: bit bit. Yeah, you know against that that Bengals offensive line. 334 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: I just think the Steelers at home and their opener. 335 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: I know last week was an emotional win. You don't 336 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: have t J. Watt this week. I get it. Um, 337 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, they didn't win last year in games at 338 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: t J. Watt either didn't start or didn't finish well. 339 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: They took care of that last week. True, he didn't 340 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: finish that game, and they still find the way to 341 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: win it. They hadn't, but they're not missing to it. 342 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 1: They didn't beat the Bengals last year either, and they 343 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: did that too, so I just think this is a 344 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 1: new year, so you can't look at those stats. Well, 345 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: they don't win without t J. We know he's good. 346 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 1: Absolutely money. But I think that they can find a 347 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 1: way to win against this team at home this week. 348 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: I think that I think the Patriots are in a 349 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: bad place right. Um, I don't know that they know 350 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: what they want to be or what they are offensively, 351 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: and I think that matters. I get the Steelers winning 352 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: this one. Seen, so we both think the Bengal or 353 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: the Patriots score a little bit. But yeah, right, not 354 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: it's not the Steelers aren't gonna shut them down. No, 355 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: I don't think so, but they might. I mean, I 356 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: think that's possible. I mean, both teams might shot you. 357 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: But other than the one thing they're they're relatively healthy. Um, 358 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 1: you know Cam still Cam, He's gonna be a handful 359 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: for them. Um. I think the Steelers will do some 360 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: things to to kind of mask not having what I 361 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: think both a great Robisky will play better in this 362 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: one than the first one. Yeah, I don't know if 363 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: they'll run the ball better, but I expect the offense 364 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: to be a little better, a little more consistent. Um. 365 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: To be honest, my bet in this for the score 366 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: is more of a bet against the Patriots than for 367 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: the Steelers. I think Steelers are better on special teams 368 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: as well. And I'm I'm specifically looking at Chris Boswell 369 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: versus Nick Folk, and I think Harvin's a weapon. Yeah, 370 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think we have a good punter now too, 371 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: and in a tight game, I think. And it's not 372 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: that I think that the Bengal or the Patriots are 373 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: bad on special teams. They never are. But I just 374 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: look at it Boswell versus Folk, and I said, that's 375 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: it's definitely a check in the Steelers call. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. 376 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 1: But we'll find out if we're writing or not on Monday. Well, 377 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: we'll find out. We'll find out Sunday actually, but I 378 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: guess we'll talk about it on Monday some more. But 379 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 1: that's going to do it for our show today. We'll 380 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: be back again money next week. We'll be talking game 381 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 1: already on Monday too. Oh it's quick, it's a quick turnaround. 382 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: The Steelers will then face the Brown's Thursday night. Uh. 383 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: That game is gonna be on double p W p 384 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: x I locally, so you won't have to necessarily watch 385 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: it on Amazon prom. I know some people were asking 386 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: me about that some issues with mine, but I thought 387 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: that broadcast was a little well, I deposit because I 388 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: went to go get my son, and so I like 389 00:21:58,400 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: you texted me. I didn't write you back because I 390 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: want to re text until and the fast forward device 391 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: was a problem and I've said bad. My sound didn't 392 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: match up my sound up. The play was talking. He 393 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: was talking about the play would have and then it 394 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: would happen like a half a second later. I'm like, 395 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 1: when I finally caught up, I left Amazon, Brian came 396 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 1: back and then it was fine and the whole positive 397 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: rewinding things. They get some things they need to iron 398 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,479 Speaker 1: out there for sure. Did you miss any of our 399 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: show today?
