Here's your host. Welcome to Fantasy 5 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: Football Weekly, another preseason edition. This is episode five, year 6 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: number twenty six for Fantasy Football Weekly. I am Paul 7 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: Giarchi and my coast today are Scott Fish and Matt Harrison. Hello, guys, Hey, hey, 8 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,959 Speaker 1: it's we're only we're less than two weeks away from 9 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: the start of the season, and they're so little news 10 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: without the preseason games and with limited access to practices 11 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: walk throughs. Uh. It's it's it's just a different world. 12 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: And I get the feeling we're gonna be so wrong 13 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: on so many things in week one. You know, I 14 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: think normally we've got a reasonably good read. On week 15 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna be Frisman Jackson everywhere. That's exactly right. And 16 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: it maybe it's okay to be wrong. Who's the Cowboys read? 17 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 1: I don't think that our listeners think it's okay for 18 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 1: us to be wrong. Wrong. I meant they're wrong, not us. Yeah, 19 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 1: we won't be wrong about anything ever. On this show, 20 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: we go through the news from around the league at 21 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: the outset of all these preseason shows, and this is 22 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 1: when we're trying to take little nuggets and gleaning little 23 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: things from on site reporters and try to figure things 24 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: out without the preseason games so we can normally use 25 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: to get a better read on things. It is more challenging, 26 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: but we're up to the task. Beginning with the Panthers, 27 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: Matt The Panthers held an inter squad scrimmage that's hard 28 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: to say inter squad scrimmage on Tuesday. The only touchdown 29 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: in the game was a Bridgewater fade route into the 30 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: end zone to slot receiver Christian McCaffrey. Yeah, alright, Christian 31 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: McCaffrey lined up in the slot on that play. They're 32 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: going to be lining him up everywhere on the field 33 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: this year. One point zero one in every draft, it's 34 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. It's uh, it's pretty universal right now. Smith, 35 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: John H. Smith. I respect that do Gardner Minshew things 36 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: taken off. There are people doing it skyrocket, But here's 37 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 1: the thing. If you're doing it in a free league, 38 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: don't bother tweeting me. It's gutless tweet me the picture, 39 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: the photo of you of your draft room with you 40 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: taking Gardner Minshew and your hundred dollar entry fee. There 41 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: we go. Now we're talking. I think they're only giving 42 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: away like two cases of beer for this too, So 43 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: it's a sweepsticks still right now, they are giving a 44 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: lifetime a year's supply away if you win your league 45 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: with it, if you how many how many people? A 46 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: lot of people are going to do that. You know 47 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: they can't. They're gonna be thousands of people that do that. 48 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: You could rig your free league to make sure you went. 49 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: It's probably just one they probably probably, I'm sure they Anyway, 50 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: let's go to the Las Vegas Raiders. Uh, Tyrrelle Williams 51 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: torn labor. He's gonna try to play through it. But 52 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: I've had one and it can't imagine trying to play 53 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: through that and catch footballs, especially reaching up to grab football's. 54 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: Um and Nelson l z Jones are supposedly in great 55 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: shape and in football somehow. That's the real news is 56 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: that they're still in football. Um, I think Tyroll Williams 57 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: is undraftable, and I think, oh yeah, he's slid down 58 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: to maybe the seventies or eighties in my rankings. Probably, Yeah, really, 59 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: I wasted your time because all three. We can talk 60 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: a little bit more about that Raiders wide receiver position later. 61 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: The Packers album was already is surging with big catches 62 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: and practice and is sewn away the number two receiving job. 63 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: He's being vastly underdrafted right now. His average draft position 64 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: is one seventy five. And you've got a for sure 65 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: number two. Yeah, for sure number two. Aaron Rodgers has 66 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: got some miles loft. Don him. It's it's it seems odd. 67 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Washington football team at Ben Standig 68 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: of the Athletics says that Bryce Love is not a 69 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: lock to make the roster and has been running with 70 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: the second and third team in practice. Man who is 71 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: on the first team, I think I read that is 72 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: he's not a lot to be active on game days 73 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: if they only start three. But either way, Adrian Peterson 74 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: is splitting reps with Antonio Gibson with the first team 75 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: right now. Second team leader j D. Mcksucker, j D mcsucking, 76 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: I will be stunned if he ends up being a 77 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: material part of this offense. He's ahead of Bryce Love 78 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: right now. Well, I've always there starter as the thirty 79 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: six year old, so you might you might be Adrian 80 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: Peterson's basically he's almost free in league. Nobody's taking him, 81 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be one of those guys where you 82 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: draft him and suddenly you've got a flex player that 83 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: you can start every week. He's gonna get seven touchdowns. 84 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Let's go to Buffalo Scott 85 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 1: Josh Allen hoping to run less often, which is something 86 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: fantasy owners loved. He he's mostly especially after you ran 87 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: for nine touchdowns last year nine times. There it is there, 88 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: it is the colt head coach Frank Right, there's more 89 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: singletary battling, a bunch of fumbling issues and uh, Zack, really, 90 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: you don't say Church is okay? With that interruption? That's 91 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: the lead story. Why would you not have Jack Moss 92 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: news first alight standing rule for this show going forward 93 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 1: if you have good Zack Moss News Smiths or John 94 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: Smith News right to the top of the show, right 95 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: to the open cold said coach. Frank Wright says that 96 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: tight end will be a really really important dynamics. I 97 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: wanted you to do your Frank Reich voice again. It 98 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: sounded so really important dynamic for the team's offense. Yes, 99 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: apparently he's marble mouse. Jack Doyle is you're likely starter. 100 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: Trey Burton could play the Eric Ebron. Remember Burton Reich 101 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: we're together in Philadelphia, so they have a little bit 102 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: of shared history there. Let's go to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 103 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: Chris Godwin returned from missing three straight practices earlier in 104 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: the week, and if you're drafting a kicker, watch out 105 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: for the Tampa situation. Right now. Elliott Fry and Matt 106 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: Gay are locked in a battle. The winner will be 107 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 1: part of a good offense and probably be a really 108 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: good kicker. But you might not want to draft them yet. 109 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: You might want to pick them up after it's decided. Yeah, 110 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay scored the fourth most points in the NFL 111 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: last year. You know whoever ends up kicking for them, 112 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's more about opportunity. It's a top 113 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: five kicker no matter who wins. But we don't know 114 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: who's gonna win. Let's go to the Cleveland Brown Scott 115 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb in concussion protocol, but it's a way un 116 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: till the season, so he should be fine. He'll be fine. 117 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: The Chiefs general manager Brett Veach says that Clyde Edwards 118 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: a laire is quote on pace to have a big 119 00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: year to be our primary ball carrier. Hell yeah, baby, 120 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: that's what I want to hear. Even at this time 121 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: of year when everybody's lying, I don't care because that 122 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: fits my personal theress and I want information bias. Absolutely, 123 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: let's go to the Detroit Lions. Man. The running back 124 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: situation is a little bit messy right now. DeAndre Swift 125 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: was held out of practice Tuesday and Thursday, and the 126 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: reasons were not disclosed. He did practice in a limited 127 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: fashion on Wednesday, but carry on, Johnson's wearing a knee 128 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: brace for confidence reasons, and even both Scarborough is limited 129 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: to practice right now. It's a little dicey in that 130 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: running back room. The New York Jets Scott, multiple Beat reporters, 131 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: and Adam Gates have all said that Frank Gore is 132 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: the best back in camp. But god, let's come to this, 133 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: but watch out, watch out case traded for his boy, 134 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: Kalin Blage. How about everybody's reporting the Dolphins are going 135 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: to just drop Palin Blage and Adam Gates coast whoa whoa, whoa, whoa. 136 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: I will give you draft picks my beer. What the 137 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: war the Rams. Last week we talked about Josh Reynolds 138 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: holding off Van Jefferson, but this is a fluid situation. 139 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: This week now Van Jefferson is getting so much praise 140 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: and getting run with the first team offense, and from 141 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: time to time this could be a developing situation. And 142 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: maybe for the time being, you can't draft either Van 143 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: Jefferson or Josh Reynolds. But I still think start of 144 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: the season Josh Reynolds. By the end of the season 145 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: Van Jefferson. Let's go to the Seattle Seahawks. Matt Little 146 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: running back news. Chris Carson returned to camp after resolving 147 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: some personal matters. But Pete Carroll, Oh, let me do 148 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: my Pete Carroll impression here. He said that, Hello, Gavna 149 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: Carloside will be a big factor. What I thought that 150 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: was dead on Scott The Denver Broncos Vick van Jo 151 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: after a couple of weeks ago saying that Melvin Gordon 152 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: would be the lead back of the committee. Now he says, 153 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 1: not so shure. I'd like I think we're in a 154 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: position where we don't have a starter. I think that's 155 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: closer to correct, to be honest. Uh, let's so, what's next, Oh, 156 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: it's me the Vikings. Ola b C. Johnson looks like 157 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: you're opening day starter, opposite Adam Feeling. When asked about 158 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson's development, Kirk Cousins migrated the conversation over to 159 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 1: Ola B. C. Johnson, who he described as having maybe 160 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 1: the best training camp of anyone on the team. And 161 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: now Justin Jefferson has been fine, but b. C. Johnson 162 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: has been in the system for a year. It's a 163 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: big advantage this season. I think your opening day, your 164 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: opening day starter is going to be Ola B. C. 165 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: Johnson at wide receiver for the Vikings.

I'm glad to hear that. 177 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 1: For the Steelers wide receiver, rookie wide receiver Chase Claypool 178 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: looks fantastic, drawing rave reviews, which could be trouble for 179 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: somebody when they've got all these other receivers that want 180 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: to get fed the ball. If Claypool ends up making 181 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: an impact and getting into some some first team wraps, 182 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: who knows, somebody's gonna be the odd man out. And 183 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: I've talked before I get I get a little bit 184 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: worried about Maybe we'll talk more about that later. Dallas 185 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: Cowboys Matt both starting tackles for the Cowboys are dealing 186 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: with injury. Tyron Smith was limited on Thursday with a 187 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. L Collins has been sitting out after a 188 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: hard crash beat Reporters expect both to be ready by 189 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: Week one. Scott Tennessee Titans. This one's short Ryan Tannehill. 190 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 1: The Derrick Henry has been working on his pass catching 191 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: and Tannehill sleazy looks really good and really confident catching it. Now, Yeah, 192 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: I mean if if Henry is gonna catch, if he adds, yeah, 193 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,599 Speaker 1: if he he catches fifty passes, he's she should be 194 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: the first player taking in the draft. Probably forty is 195 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: almost every wide receiver has heard Kendrick Borne is basically 196 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 1: the last man standing there. Um. The team has turned 197 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: to wash outs like Kevin White for depth, but the 198 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: hope is closer to the first game of the season, 199 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: they'll start getting some guys back. Kendrick Borne might be 200 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: a sneaky pick up for you could do a Deebo 201 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: Samuel super late because he's he's going got drafted at 202 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: this stage because of people worried about the Liz Frank right, 203 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: So you could do Deebo Samuel really late and then 204 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: last pick your draft Kendrick Borne, and you've got a 205 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: San Francisco starting wide receiver. They think Deebo is gonna 206 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: be ready for week one now they're they say, sprinting 207 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: hard and practice and there's lots of good signs on debot. 208 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: I hope. So, but you know, these Liz Frank injuries, 209 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: We've seen this thing go three surgeries deep. So it's 210 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: just my wife's had one for two years. Yeah, it's 211 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: it is. She doesn't play for the forty Niners right now. 212 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: She's on the wide receiver death chart somewhere, somebody is Matt. 213 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Giant. Rookie safety Xavier McKinney underwent 214 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: surgery on a broken left foot, hopeful to return in 215 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 1: late November, and see Kwon Barkley limped off the field 216 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: on Monday, didn't finish practice, but has been back practicing 217 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: later in the week. But he did get a little 218 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: dinged up in practice. We'll hope he fin I assume 219 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: he's fine. Cincinnati Bengal Scott Joe Mixon has been missing 220 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: practice due to what Zach Taylor says. He thinks his migraines. 221 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: That's interesting in a contract, how you not know? But yeah, 222 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 1: that's exactly the point. He was threatening contract told out 223 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: and he's missing practices. Uh a j Greenback and Joe 224 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: Burrow is looking lights out in two minute drills. Yeah, 225 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow is going to be legit. I'm confident think 226 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: he breaks seven. Baker may feel session record. I kind 227 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: of want to bet the over. I think I kind 228 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: of do too. I kind of do too, Ravens J K. 229 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: Dobbins turning heads in almost every practice. He's expecting to 230 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: have a significant early role. I don't think we're gonna 231 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: have to wait for him to get a lot of 232 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: a lot of run here. I think he presses mark 233 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: ingram for time, um really fairly early in the season. 234 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: Gus Edwards is going to be the odd man out 235 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: of this deal, almost certainly at lint of Falcons, Matt, Oh, 236 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: I want to try another impersonation of offensive coordinator Dirt Cutter. 237 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: You're ready, yes, hi hole, this is Dirk Cutter. I 238 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: want Todd Gurwey to get at least fifteen touches per 239 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: game this year. Is that good? That was a Kermit 240 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: the Frog. That was not No, that was totally Dirk Cutter. 241 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: That was a Kermit the Frog. I'm pretty sure Dirk 242 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: Cutter says hi ho every time he meets Yeah. Lakwan 243 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: Treadwell also has a bad case of the drops, according 244 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: to the Falcons website, So who does I'm sorry, Lakwan Treadwell. No, 245 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna make the roster. No, all 246 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: that's so bold? Oh, No, Scott the Chargers. Mike Williams 247 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 1: could miss the season open or with the shoulder spring 248 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: and Josh Kelly has been looking really good, my sleeper 249 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: from two weeks ago. Uh, they now think he has 250 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: the edge for the number two jobs. I think that's 251 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: going to be the case right now. Mike Williams is 252 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: hard to draft at all at this stage. Um, and 253 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: I realized he may he may even be ready for 254 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: the opener, but he was already a touchdown dependent guy 255 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: who's g gives you really hot. Average depth of targets 256 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: like almost twenty tyrods is like nine. Yeah, that's a 257 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: bad fit. Yeah, and we're nervous about that for sure. 258 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: Let's our last. We have two teams left, and they're 259 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: both Mats. The Cardinals. Kenyan Drake has been held out 260 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: of practice with a foot injury and was seen in 261 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: a walking boot earlier in the week. Oh, Chase Edmonds 262 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: getting all of the first team loving right now? I 263 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: think that's I think Chase is gonna get way more 264 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: work than people. And then how about David Montgomery for 265 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: the Bears who slipped while carrying the rock and practice. 266 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: They're calling it a strained groin and saying he's expected 267 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: to be out two to four weeks. That does give 268 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: him an outside shot of being ready for opening Day. Also, 269 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: Adam Hogue of NBC Sports that it looks like Nick 270 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: Foles is pulling away from Mitch Rubinsky. Yeah. You know 271 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: the thing with David Montgomery and this groin injury, if 272 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: you bring him back, you know, groin injuries and running 273 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: backs terrible combination and easily something that could end up 274 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: being a ren aggravation to the injury if you're bringing 275 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: back too soon. They have virtually no depth at the 276 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: position because three cones not gonna you know, He's not 277 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: gonna be Maybe it might be Cordell Patterson or Spencer Ware, 278 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: remember Naggie and Spencer Ware, but his together, I know, 279 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: you know what I'd rather where on my team. I 280 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: think at this day, well they could Jackson Jacks want picks. 281 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: Maybe that's maybe that's what they end up doing here. 282 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: When we come back this weekend, tons of drafts and auctions. 283 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: You will get advice from all of us for draft 284 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: and auction day.

Really, 288 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: we've got only two weeks left to get in your 289 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: draft and auction, so this is this is a biggie, 290 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: probably the most popular week. So let's spend a little 291 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: bit of time just giving draft day advice, whether it's 292 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: a draft or an auction, the kind of advice that 293 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: you want to do that people should hear as they're 294 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: heading in to their drafts and they're trying to maximize 295 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: it the most. You know, the two hours you're gonna 296 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: spend in this draft. You gotta live with these decisions 297 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: all year long. This is awfully important. Let's make sure 298 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: to get it right. Scott. Let's begin with you. I 299 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: know that you, like me, prefer the auction or the draft. 300 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: You're gonna focus largely on auction related advice. I've got 301 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: a smack, I got a little everything over. What do 302 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: you want to talk about? First? I was upset you 303 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: had that nineteen percent question last week on three tough questions. Yeah, 304 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: the question last week was is it a viable auction 305 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: strategy to not spend more than nine percent of your 306 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: budget on any one player this particular year? Did you 307 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: know My first ever article when I entered this industry 308 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: for full time was a full article on auction strategy, 309 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: and my main talking point was never spend over fifteen percent? 310 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 1: So have you lived by that? I? I have lived 311 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 1: by that, except for in bank roll leagues because they're 312 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 1: a little different, but you know, there are different types, 313 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: but in all other ones, I've absolutely lived by it. 314 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: Auctions are so fluid that I love the hard cap 315 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: of a in a two dollar auction, when a player 316 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 1: gets to thirty dollars, I'm just out. I'm out. And 317 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: this year I wanted to focus on it this year, 318 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: especially because it's so dang deep. But you don't have 319 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: to spend over thirty on anyone. Let everyone waste their 320 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: money and is my long hard standing rule. So that's 321 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: tip one on and you know what, to me, I 322 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 1: couldn't live with that every year, but this year in 323 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: the deepest draft I've ever seen, Yeah, having money and 324 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 1: at the one hour mark of your auction is a 325 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: really good spot to be in. It's pretty nice to 326 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: run the board late an auction, is it ever? It's empowering. 327 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: It's like the best feeling when everybody's just scrambling and going, oh, please, 328 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 1: don't take this guy for two exactly when you can 329 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: control the board, it's a It is a lot of 330 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: power you don't ever normally have. It's like if you 331 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 1: were in a draft and you had every pick in 332 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: the twelfth round of your draft. Yeah, well, to me, 333 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like the twelveth round. It feels like 334 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: the seventh round. One thing that that hard limit does 335 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: and if you can stick to it, which you should, 336 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: it keeps you from price price enforcing and gain stuck it. Uh. 337 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: It also keeps you avoids tilting. You're not gonna tilting. Yeah, 338 00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: so it's a good point. It calms you down in 339 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 1: an and I've seen I've seen people tilt where they 340 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 1: get in absolute and the next thing you know, you're 341 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: way over here there. They're probably doing it with you, 342 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 1: against you as they're looking at your cheat sheet and 343 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: the action people knowing your strategy will bid thirty one 344 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: just to fight price yard. I don't care this has 345 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: happened to me because my cheat sheet is available for 346 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 1: free com and so I'm in an auction. People are 347 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,239 Speaker 1: holding my sheet and looking at me and raising my 348 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: bids because they've got my maximum in front of them. 349 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: They know what they know exactly what I think. I 350 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: blame Brian Oak. I think you should he said you've 351 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: done it to me before. Uh Matt from Draft Advice, 352 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: So I I kind of went all in on the 353 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 1: drafts and I just wanted to kind of go over 354 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: my Gainesville strategy again. The three five two that's the 355 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 1: area code of Gainesville, Florida. That's where it gets the name. 356 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: Chart likes to call it undo the option. And someone 357 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: just tweeted us while we're talking about under the opposite, 358 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: So I think that's catching off undo the opposite if 359 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: there's ever a year to undo the opposite. This. So 360 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: the strategy dictates that you take running backs with your 361 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: first three picks, wide receivers with your next five, and 362 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: then two more running backs in rounds nine and ten. 363 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: That's the three five two um. So that means you 364 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: leave the first ten rounds with zero quarterbacks, zero tight ends, 365 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: five running backs, five wide receivers. And why would you 366 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: do this? The depth of the players at certain positions 367 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: is so weird this year. There's so many good deep quarterbacks, 368 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: there's so many good deep tight ends, and the wide 369 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: receivers and running backs in rounds four through eight. That's 370 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: what it's all about for me and this so get this. 371 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: Here are the running backs available in rounds four through eight. 372 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: Chris Carson, who I like, David Johnson, Levy on Bell, 373 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: Raheem mostart mark Ingram, James Conner, Devin Singletary, David Montgomery. 374 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: There's lots of question marks there. But if you look 375 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: at the wide receivers that go in rounds four through eight, 376 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: and only eleven wide receivers are going in the first 377 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: three rounds, It's A J. Brown, It's Cooper Cup, Allen Robinson, 378 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: Adam Feeling, d J. Moore, Calvin Ridley, the list goes 379 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: on and on. It's absolutely insane the value you can 380 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: get in those middle rounds with wide receivers right now 381 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: and come out with three stud wide receivers. And that's 382 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: why I want to keep doing the Gainesville the three 383 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: five tree to um. I think there's a lot of 384 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: too too with this this this particular year. It's the 385 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: way it works out, and we're really seeing running backs. 386 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: Running backs are going hard and early, and if they're 387 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: they're they're tapping out faster than wide receiver. Buy a lot. 388 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: This particularly well and one more thing quarterback and tight 389 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: end easy to you can get at tight end in 390 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: round eleven Hayden Hurst, t J Hockenson, MIKESICKI, John U 391 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: Smith Just stop at John. I got Gardner, Minshew and 392 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow in the fourth rounds of an IDP draft yesterday. Yeah, 393 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: well cut in half twelve team what quarterback like you 394 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: said Roethlisberger, Minshew, Cam Newton, Joe Burrow, Tannehill, Cousins like 395 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: you can get. There's good quarterbacks, um, and I guess 396 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: my first bullet point on this discussion about what to do. 397 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: Today's your draft day, your auction day. You're listening to 398 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: the show getting prepped up. This is the year to 399 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: just try something new. Maybe it's what Matt just described, 400 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: maybe it's something else. This is the deepest draft I've 401 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: ever been a part of. There are good players at 402 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: almost every stage of the draft. There are no bad 403 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 1: rounds in this one. You're going to find some of 404 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: you can help you every spot of the draft, or 405 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: almost at any price point that you want in the auction. 406 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: So everything can work. And I just encourage you to 407 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 1: be creative, try something new and different that you've always 408 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: wanted to try because this is the best year I've 409 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: ever seen to try something different. Chart is gonna try 410 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 1: getting running backs in the first period. It's weird. It 411 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:51,479 Speaker 1: is something you've never tried before. Never do that, Uh, Scott, 412 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: what have you got? Uh? Second auction tip here, Lalo 413 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: and I think this is a great job, great one 414 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: for this year. In it's the auction, don't even bid 415 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: for the a couple of days or in a live 416 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: auction first twenty or so players don't even bid. Or 417 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 1: if you do bid and you don't want to reveal 418 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: what you're doing, bid make bids that you know have 419 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: no chance of winning. Just lay completely low all the 420 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: excitement at the start of an auction. People are spending 421 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 1: tons of money. Save it, okay, but don't be the 422 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: guy that throws out stay Kwon Barkley one dollar. No, 423 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: Scott will throw him out for well, yes, what you 424 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: could do, because he's he's going to go for more 425 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: than you know. I but I hate I hate the 426 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: people to do that because it never go Now now, 427 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: Sae Kwon Barkley, that should take thirty seconds to auction 428 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: off is going to take a minute a half. You know, 429 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: one person in an auction can fix that. When somebody 430 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: does the Sa kwan for one, you just go yeah, 431 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,479 Speaker 1: but nobody does because everybody's like, I might get him 432 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: for three. Yeah, that never works. Let's be adults, uh correct. 433 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: Go get your guys. It's auction day, it's draft day. 434 00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: Decide on who who you walk out there a year, 435 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: there are three or four guys that you really really 436 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: want on your team. Just go get him, don't. I 437 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: don't care. I don't care what the ADP says. You know, 438 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: let's I'll take mad it is. That's actually one of 439 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: my other bullet points. Austin Neckler is one of the 440 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: guys you like, I think you should. He should be 441 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: taken in the first round, ADP says the end of 442 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: the second or the early third. Who cares, It's gonna 443 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: break your heart if you don't get Austin Neckler. Just 444 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,719 Speaker 1: go take him. Who cares about ADP? Identify your guys 445 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: and go get them. You know Scott's Hays don't spend 446 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: more than in an auction. I feel like, well, I 447 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: think that's a viable strategy and it's one you could 448 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: come away with a good team with. For me, if 449 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is a guy you want on your team, 450 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: Go get him or whoever it is, Go get your guys. 451 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: Can you imagine me the biggest thirty dollars on Kenny 452 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: Golladay And I'm just like dying, man. I just I 453 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: hate it when I leave auctions and I didn't get 454 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: my guys. Go get your guys, especially in auctions. Yeah, 455 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: that's the one time when you have a chance, you better, right, Scott, 456 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 1: you're focusing on draft day auction decisions. Yes, My My 457 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: next tip is attacked the middle. And it's not just 458 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: attacked the middle of the auction, which you absolutely should do. 459 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: Attack the middle of an auction, but also the middle 460 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: of tears. Yes, when the first player of a tear 461 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: hits the board, they start getting bit up, and generally 462 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: someone is trying to get their guy in that tier, 463 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: so they're paying more the last player of a tier. 464 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: Super people get scared, they get super expensive. Attack the 465 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: middle of the auction and attack the middle of tears. 466 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: I think there's some truth to that. I've gone to 467 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: do it. I've the worst auctions I've ever had have 468 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: employed this strategy. And here's my tip to you what 469 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: not to do. Don't go to an auction saying I'm 470 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: just gonna find value. I'm just gonna find guys I 471 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: think are under undervalued. The weird thing is value will 472 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: come to you if you do the auction right. I 473 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: think so do and you end up not getting your 474 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: guys again, back to this, You don't get your guys 475 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: when you're just waiting for value and fishing for value. 476 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: The next thing you know, you've just got a bunch 477 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 1: of players that nobody wanted. Zack Moss is up for 478 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: bid right now in an auction, and Jonna Smith is 479 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: coming up right after him. I don't I know JOHNA. 480 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: Smith's gonna get thrown out next because I'm gonna nominate 481 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: him right afterwards. Okay, are you really spending up on 482 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: those kind of guys that will you break the rule 483 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: to go get guys? You know I wouldn't, not Johnny Smith, 484 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: But yeah I paid uh in a recent twenty man auction. 485 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: I just paid fourteen for Zach for Zack Moss. You 486 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: know it's a twenty team auction, but sure, yeah, I 487 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: alluded to this earlier. Just have a fun team. I 488 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 1: think there's to me. I love I love having Patrick 489 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: Mahomes on my team and Lamar Jackson on my team, 490 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 1: entire Hill on my team. Guys that are athletic specimens 491 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: that when Patrick Mahomes goes back to pass and you 492 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: see him with that big wind up and the blood 493 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: starts pumping, anything could happen. You know, this thing, this 494 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: ball could go sixties seventy yards in the air and 495 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 1: cradle into the arms of Tyreek Hill. I love having 496 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: players where any time they touched the ball, something magical 497 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 1: could happen. Fun players make for a fun year, even 498 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: if you don't win the whole thing. Scott, You've got 499 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: more auction items. Sure, sure, this one's this one's a 500 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: little short. I called it this one. I am the law. 501 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: It's it's fun being Yeah, it's fun being judged dread. 502 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: But just be careful not to get exiled to the 503 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 1: cursed earth. You don't want to price and force someone. 504 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 1: And if people don't know what price enforcing and no 505 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: auctions is is you're bidding up a player you don't 506 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: really want. You're just bidding them up to waste money 507 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 1: to get money out of other people. Um My, My 508 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,199 Speaker 1: main point on that is, never make a bid that 509 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:47,360 Speaker 1: you are not okay winning that bid. It's hard. I mean, 510 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: it's really it's gutsy. It's gutsy. If it's gonna crush 511 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 1: you that you ended up with that bit just because 512 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 1: you're bidding somebody up. Don't don't make that bit. We've 513 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: all been in several auctions before. How many times have 514 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 1: we been in an auction, made a bit of eighteen 515 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: dollars a player and then just been absolutely relieved when 516 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: somebody said nineteen, just like, oh thank god. Absolutely. Uh. 517 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: If you're doing an online drafter auction and you're not 518 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: familiar with the online drafter auction room, you know it's 519 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: a new technology to you, it's a new website. Whatever, 520 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: go early, get situated. Understand how everything works, how you 521 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: make a selection, how you build a queue. Do a 522 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: mock on that site. Yes, go do a mock draft 523 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: on that site, so you learn the engine because you 524 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: don't want technology to be an impediment. Well, you're on 525 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: the clock and you're trying to figure out if I 526 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: should raise an auction bid or your your pick is 527 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: up in the draft and ESPN and Yahoo, which are 528 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: probably the two most popular things. ESPN recently changed their 529 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: auction room about a year ago. So if you haven't 530 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: played in a little while, it's gonna be a little 531 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: bit different. You can go do free mocks right on 532 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: their site at any time time. Yeah. And by the way, 533 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: the technology for those auction rooms, auctioning is hard. It's 534 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: really hard that Yes, Be and Yahoo have done an 535 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: amazing job with their auction rooms. They're really really good. 536 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: They're both good. They just move things sometimes you don't 537 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: know where they are. Got. Uh. Next tip for auctions, Uh, 538 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: take notes. And I'm not talking about like in college 539 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 1: taking tons of note. It's like that kind of thing 540 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. When you wit a player, take note. 541 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: If someone was bidding hard against you, put a note 542 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: by that player. This guy really wanted this player. Um. 543 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: Same with if you see someone who gets obviously stuck 544 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: with a player, you might be able to get him 545 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: on the cheap. Just a couple of brief notes to 546 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: take while you're while you're doing an auction, Can I 547 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: give you I don't want to steal? Well if you 548 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: if you I'm gonna, I've got an auction. Yeah, well 549 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: I have one more, but you're not gonna. It won't hit. 550 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: Every year I write down all of the auction values 551 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: for every player. So when s Kwon Barkley goes for 552 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: forty one. Write down forty one next his name. Then 553 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: the next year I go back and I look so 554 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: that I can see in this group of people. Here 555 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: is how this this group tends to lean. You know, 556 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 1: they run running backs heavy, and I know that the 557 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: high end running backs are going to go for forty 558 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: one because I've got years of I look back for years, 559 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: I go years of data. Here's what this, this is 560 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: what this up. It is good prep and so I 561 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: can you really can get a feel for and I'm 562 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: telling you it largely holds true year after year. People 563 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: just are who they are. Wow. So it actually ended 564 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: up kind of stealing my last note. And just if 565 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: you're in a new auction league, every auction is super different. 566 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: So looking at previous years and current auction values as 567 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,719 Speaker 1: a tool is okay, but be prepared for the auction 568 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: to drastically change. Unless you're in the auction with the 569 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: same group of people, which you know, then you might 570 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: be able to get a pretty good read of the room. 571 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: Last one, be mentally ready if you're in a draft 572 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: to trade down. You know this is to Matt's point earlier, 573 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: there's just so much depth and so much value. If 574 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: you could turn your first round pick into a second 575 00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: and a third, make that deal. If you tune your 576 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: second rounder to a third and fourth, make that deal. 577 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: You know you can really accumulate picks. We talked about 578 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: this in some detail a few shows ago. You really 579 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: can accumulate a lot of picks and do yourself a 580 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: favor in a deep draft by trading down. Most people 581 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: don't do it. We'll never do it. This is a 582 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: great opportunity for exactly that. Hey, if you want to 583 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: be ready for your draft auction, maybe it's today, maybe 584 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: it's this week.

Back in moments. Welcome back to Fantasy 587 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: Football Weekly. Fault Charchi and Scott Fish and Matt Harrison 588 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: with you. This is a segment we like to call 589 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: three tough questions. You can play along. I will pepper 590 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:04,479 Speaker 1: my co host, with three. So uncomfortable with this segment 591 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: right now? Based on what happened the last time the 592 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,239 Speaker 1: three of us were at this table, you should be 593 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: you went over three. If you recall and then you 594 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: carried over your bad mojo to last week. And I 595 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: just answered everything that Scott answered, And if you got 596 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: him all right and I got him all wrong, that 597 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: can happen. You can play along, see if you can 598 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: go three and oh we begin with tough question number one. 599 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: Does the plethora of injuries to wide receivers improve your 600 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: projections for tight and George Kittle a lot, a little, 601 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: or not at all? Scott, alright, so he was already 602 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: my tight end one pretty much with a bullet. So 603 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: I don't know how much more I can add to him. 604 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: If you're asking if he will break his own single 605 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: season receiving record of which is best of all time 606 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: for tight ends at six. Already thought he had a 607 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: shot at it. If you think he's gonna to break 608 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: his career high and touchdowns of five, he had three 609 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: called back last year, I think he was already going 610 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: to do that, so honestly, not at all, because I 611 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: already had him pegged for just a ridiculous year. Yeah, 612 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna answer whatever, Scott. No, Deebo was seen 613 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: sprinting hard, as I mentioned at Wednesday's practice. That's a 614 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: good thing. It's still possible he's ready for week one. 615 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: Hiuk is week to week with what's called a mild 616 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: left hamstring strain, so he could be back by week one. 617 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: The depth at the wide receiver position isn't flashy, but 618 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 1: it's not horrible. Kendrick Borne showed flashes in the red 619 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: zone last year. Dante Pettis looked like a professional wide 620 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: receiver in the past, enough so where Chart gave me 621 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: a first round pick for him. Uh Davon Austin, Kevin 622 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,719 Speaker 1: White I have a first round pedigree. I expect one 623 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: of those to get cut. But rookie Joan Jennings was 624 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: a guy that people generally liked going to the draft. 625 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: He felt the seventh he's on the roster. To the 626 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: point of it, all is is Htle is gonna eat. 627 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: We're not worried about that. Having better weapons on the 628 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: field will help allow him to avoid additional coverage. Though 629 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: what's good for the offense is good for the offense. 630 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: So my answer is not at all, not at all. Again, 631 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: the question is does the plethor of injuries the wide 632 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 1: receivers improve your projection for tight end George Kittle a lot, 633 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: a little, or not at all. Any correct answer is 634 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: not at all and you said, things that are good 635 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: for the offense. Uh, for good for a player in 636 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 1: the offense are good for the whole offense. Things that 637 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: are bad for a player in the offense are bad 638 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: for the whole offense. Kittle is not gonna get better 639 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: because of this. He's he is a matchup nightmare. He's 640 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 1: too big for dbs, he's too fast for linebackers. But 641 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: without competent receivers, they you can put both linebacker and 642 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: a dB get a double and triple. They can double him. 643 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: Except for Jalen heard, most of these injuries are short term. Um, 644 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: it's a long season. I just don't think at the 645 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: end of the day that those injuries are going to 646 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: change much of anything for George Kittle. Nicely done, you 647 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: two tough question Number two. Ben Roethlisberger is going off 648 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 1: the board as quarterback fifteen in round twelve. Is the 649 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 1: public drafting him too late, too early or just right? 650 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: Matt Oh, I got one right and I get to 651 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: go first now? Yeah, back baby, Uh, you have honors, 652 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 1: so to speak. In two thousand eighteen, the last season 653 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: Big Ben played in, he was the second best fantasy 654 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: quarterback in the league behind Patrick Mahomes. He had over 655 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: yards that season thirty four touchdowns. It was more yardage 656 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: than Mahomes. By the way, Now, he did have Antonio 657 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: Brown that season, but the depth of Juju, Dionte Washington 658 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: and Claypool plus Ebron Advance a tight end is pretty good. 659 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: Fantasy owners are replaying last year, though, and he didn't 660 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 1: really play last year if you might remember. Correct, they're 661 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: saying he has zip on the ball and looks like 662 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,280 Speaker 1: his old self and practice. Plus I don't fully trust 663 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: James Conner or the running backs to be monsters this year. 664 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 1: So I think Roethlisberger has top five quarterback upside, and 665 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,439 Speaker 1: if you can get him in the twelfth, that means 666 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: we're drafting him too late. Okay, Scott, Okay. So getting 667 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 1: a quarterback like him in the twelfth is fine because 668 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: I'm always against taking quarterbacks in the single digit usually, 669 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 1: always usually against taking quarterbacks in the single digit rounds. Anyway, 670 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: I think there's legit concern for his elbow and what 671 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,280 Speaker 1: a full sixteen games would look like on that elbow, 672 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: and maybe it looks great great in practice right now. 673 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: But obviously he has ten top ten upside, but he 674 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: doesn't run either, and there's that risk there. By the way, Matt, 675 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 1: you just said you think we're drafting him too late 676 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: at QBFT yet my shock Fantasy Com cheat sheet here 677 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: says Ben Roethlisberger QB. Well the order is correct. Okay, okay, 678 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: you need other people to draft other quarterbacks? Checks out, 679 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: God Scott always trying to bust my behind. None of 680 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 1: that in this room has. My answer is, it's just right. 681 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: It's just right. It's fine. Roethlisberger is going too late. 682 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: There's there's all this receiving talent around him. You've got 683 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: four capable wide receivers, you have two capable tight ends, 684 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: you have pass catching backs. He's got the excellent offensive line. 685 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,919 Speaker 1: Pro Football focuses number five ranked pass blocking offensive line 686 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: from last year. I believe you calling Judith Schuster capable 687 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: is your biggest compliment. It probably this year he's capable. 688 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 1: And Matt alluded to this, Uh we forget one. He's 689 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 1: one season removed from being Fantasy Football's third highest scoring quarterback. 690 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: He could regress a ton and still be way outperformed 691 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: different way I'll perform the twelfth round. So he is 692 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 1: going too late. Tough question number three, Terry McLaurin and 693 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: A J. Brown were both robbed of the Rookie of 694 00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: the Year award last season, which these second year receivers 695 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: will post the bigger fantasy point improvement in year number two. Scott, 696 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: Oh wow, what's going on here? He tricked me with 697 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: that one? Yeah, I thought I had honors? What the heck? Man? Whatever? 698 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what I am going with F one. 699 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,399 Speaker 1: McLaren Uh, it's mostly due to their staffis. By the way, 700 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,399 Speaker 1: that's a way better nickname than Scary Terry. Scary Terry 701 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: is a basketball player's nickname. Well, and he's also a 702 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: morty name too, Like F one is way way cooler. 703 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: How not just mclaude. I knew, I love, I love 704 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: both these guys. But but really the truth is F 705 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: one had a hundred less yards and and a touchdown 706 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,399 Speaker 1: less last year. He had nine nineteen yards and seven 707 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: touchdowns and fifty eight receptions. I think I think he 708 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 1: improves that by you know, a hundred two hundred yards 709 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: a couple of extra touchdowns. A J. Brown already had 710 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: over a thousand yards and eight touchdowns. I don't know 711 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: how much how much more he's gonna jump up from 712 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:01,240 Speaker 1: that so the bigger improvement I'm going to with f one. Okay, 713 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean A J. Brown did all that but on 714 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: only eight four targets and fifty two catches. So it's 715 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 1: gotta be a J. Brown who can who can go 716 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 1: through the roof. But much like they should have been 717 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: co Rookies of the Year last year, it's possible that 718 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 1: they could be the co most improved players this year. 719 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: I like them both a lot um. They don't know. 720 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 1: There's nothing we're not saying anything bad. You don't call 721 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 1: him soft questions chart. So my answer is a J. Brown, 722 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,839 Speaker 1: And the reason is the offense. The quarterback is better 723 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: in Tennessee. The running backs are better in Tennessee, the 724 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: offensive line, the tight ends, probably the better second wide receiver. 725 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: Everything about Tennessee's offense is significantly better than Washington's. So 726 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 1: that's why a J. Brown's got a better shot of 727 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 1: massive improvement. Yeah, you you took most of my talking points. 728 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 1: It is a J. Brown, even though he starts from 729 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: a higher position. As a baseline, McLaurin was roughly wide 730 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: receiver twenty five depending on scoring system last year and J. 731 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: Brown was roughly wide receiver eighteen. But you hit on 732 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: so many of the key things. A J. Brown's got 733 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,720 Speaker 1: the advantage of stability of quarterback, stability of overall offense, 734 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 1: the better running game to keep heat off, the better 735 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,720 Speaker 1: offensive line, and the better ownership situation, which, by the way, 736 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: is a tangible intangible I mean, there really is a 737 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 1: lot of chaos that has to be happening right now 738 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,799 Speaker 1: inside the Washington front office, and that stuff if it 739 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 1: affects everybody, it really does. By the way, I was 740 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: going to take A J. Brown, but mad and I 741 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: didn't want to be the same la pedaling. No, it's uh. 742 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: We saw we saw inconsistency last year from mclauren just 743 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 1: because of not that not that his I think any 744 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,439 Speaker 1: part of it's his fault. It's just all these things 745 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: that surround and that offense. It's going to be because 746 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: he had a nine yard game, McLaren had an eleven 747 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: yard game. Tia to thirty nine yard games. These are 748 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: all scoreless games. Those are bad games that give you 749 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 1: l's and in a guillotine league, those are bad games 750 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: that get get your head chopped. Have to be really 751 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: careful with with McClaren that way. And yes, A J. 752 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 1: Brown starts from a higher point, so it's harder for 753 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 1: him to make improvement. But he's got wide receiver one 754 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: in him. He does a J Brown does, and he can't. 755 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins can't power to be all the time. I 756 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: don't think it might matter. The offensive lines bad. I 757 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: don't know. I just think that offense just is not 758 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,360 Speaker 1: gonna be able to produce enough to make Terry McLaurin 759 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: anywhere near wide receiver number one. You underestimate Alex Smith. 760 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 1: We have a couple of bonus minutes. I'm gonna give 761 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: you a bonus question. Christian McCaffrey is going off the 762 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 1: board number one. Leagues, let's talk about whether or not 763 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: it should be this overwhelming, because I don't think that's 764 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,240 Speaker 1: the case. There are a lot of things working against 765 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 1: Christie McCaffrey this particular year. We have a whole new 766 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: offense that he's got to that has to be acclimated to. 767 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: We have an offensive line in Carolina. Well, we think 768 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna be good, but we don't know. We we 769 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: have a whole new we have a whole We have 770 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: an offensive line that is straight up garbage, that is 771 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: a bad offensive line. We have a quarterback that is 772 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: not going to threaten downfield at all. Now you can 773 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: look at you know, Will Allen last year and go, 774 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: you know what, what good was he either? But Teddy's 775 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: not built that way. Um and just regression, I mean, 776 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 1: just what he did last year was so off, so 777 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 1: far outside of the ordinary, that it seems unlikely to 778 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: happen again. And there are a lot more. There are 779 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 1: a lot of weapons there. Ian Thomas is legit good. 780 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson is there now, Yes, not to mention sel 781 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 1: t J. Moore, right, So you know, there are a 782 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,720 Speaker 1: lot of other options there. We don't know for sure 783 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 1: that this new coaching staff is going to treat Christian 784 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: McCaffrey the same way the last one did, which really 785 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,359 Speaker 1: deferred to him on like everything. Fantasy football players did 786 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 1: catch a touchdown from the practice, yes, and so I 787 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 1: got some stuff on this. So Matt Rule. His offenses 788 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 1: at Baylor ran the ball of the time. Joe Brady 789 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: was one of the most past happy coordinators uh in 790 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 1: the in the in college. Last year at l s 791 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: u UM, the team average thirty eight passing attempts per 792 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: gards lay a little bit, but the Panthers passed on 793 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: six of plays last season that was the fourth highest 794 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: in the league. And you have a quarterback who can't 795 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: throw very far. So it's a team that passed a 796 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 1: lot last year, an offensive coordinator who passed a ton 797 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 1: the year before, and a head coach who has a 798 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:36,839 Speaker 1: running philosophy with a quarterback who can't throw the ball downfield. 799 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 1: This all just leads to Christian McCaffrey. Dump offs to 800 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. Handoffs to Christian McCaffrey. Maybe he's gonna break 801 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,400 Speaker 1: his own records. If you're if you're not going to 802 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 1: take Christian McCaffrey at the first pick, who would you 803 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 1: take Barley? It's getting closer to Derrick Henry For me, 804 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire, I want start running back from the 805 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 1: best offensive football. I'm fine with any of those three. Yes, 806 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:03,799 Speaker 1: I think you know there's you know you can be 807 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 1: brave out there and go some other way besides Christian McCaffrey, 808 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 1: if you feel like you're up to it.

We're going 819 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: to talk about teammates at the same position and who 820 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 1: you would rather have based on their draft position. So 821 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,800 Speaker 1: it's not just which guys better, which is usually pretty obvious. 822 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: The trickier question is based on where they would go 823 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: in a draft, which also kind of equates to an auction, 824 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: how much you'd have to pay Who would you rather 825 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: have in that scenario. We begin in the a f 826 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: C with m Devin Singletary in round five or Zack 827 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 1: mosson round ten. Yeah. So I've done two drafts in 828 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,800 Speaker 1: the last two days, and Zack Moss went ahead of Devins. 829 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 1: Look at what we have done, So look at what 830 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: this show is done to Zack Moss is stock. This 831 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: is a weird question for me to. I think they're 832 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 1: both like seventh round or round right in that range. Well, 833 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 1: so when I looked, they were fifth and tenth. But 834 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:53,880 Speaker 1: I get that ADP says that I'm just saying the 835 00:45:53,920 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 1: last two drafts. So, UM, it's clearly moster right. If 836 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is running less, so he's gonna get less 837 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,880 Speaker 1: of those nine yard touchdowns and there's more Gary's uh, 838 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: and he's get in the passing game. It's Moss. We've 839 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:11,279 Speaker 1: gone over Moss a billion times. I don't need to 840 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 1: keep now. You probably don't we you know we love 841 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: him on this show. Well, at least I do. You 842 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 1: guys might be just going along for the ride. I 843 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 1: don't know Matt in Pittsburgh. The wide receivers Juju Smith 844 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:23,440 Speaker 1: Schuster in round three, Deonta Johnson round nine, or James 845 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: Washington in round twenty, Well, Jujus price point is too 846 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 1: early for me, especially since I'm not fully trusting him 847 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: this season. You shouldn't pend. And if I'm doing the 848 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: three five two, I'm not taking a wide receiver in 849 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,799 Speaker 1: round three. So it's between Deonta and James Washington from 850 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:48,720 Speaker 1: weeks nine through sixteen. Um, Johnson averaged or sorry, James 851 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: Washington average six point to five targets, just over four 852 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: catches and seventy two yards per game with three touchdowns. 853 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:59,760 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. Over those exact same eight games, Deonta 854 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:03,720 Speaker 1: Jhnson averaged only five point eight targets, three point seven 855 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 1: five receptions, and only forty one yards per game with 856 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,760 Speaker 1: only two touchdowns over that span. But we're drafting Deonte 857 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:14,320 Speaker 1: Johnson eleven rounds ahead of James Washington, yes, earlier. It's ridiculous. 858 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 1: I'm taking James Washington super late. Yeah, I think you 859 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 1: might be right about that. Man. Most drafts aren't even 860 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 1: twenty rounds long, Scott. Let's go to New England wide 861 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 1: receiver Julian Edelman around seven or Nick Kiel Harry in 862 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: round fifteen. So I put to kill Harry despite reports 863 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 1: he's been fatigued and Edelman's in his face and stuff, 864 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,840 Speaker 1: because the end of this last week he started showing 865 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: up and making play. So I think I think maybe 866 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna get there. He's the clear number two in 867 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:44,400 Speaker 1: that offense. He's a big body target for uh for 868 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,879 Speaker 1: Cam Newton, and UH, I don't know that Cam's gonna 869 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 1: use Edelman the same way. Edelman is getting older. But 870 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 1: the biggest thing for me is in that seventh round. 871 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 1: And of course I was looking at recent drafts for me, 872 00:47:55,800 --> 00:48:01,360 Speaker 1: uh zass, Zack Moss, Deonte Johnson, Will Fuller, Michael Gallup, 873 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: j K Dobbins, all within like six seven picks on 874 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 1: either side. I'm like, I want all those guys more 875 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 1: than I want Element. So it's Niki Hill Harry almost 876 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 1: by a process of elimination. Let's go to Baltimore matt 877 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:18,360 Speaker 1: running backs, mark Ingram and round six or JK Dobbins 878 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: in round eight. So Baltimore averaged thirty seven rushing attempts 879 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 1: per game last season and only twenty eight passing attempts. 880 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 1: They were the most run heavy team in the league. 881 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 1: It's worth noting that they only averaged twenty five rushing 882 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 1: rushing attempts for running back last year part of that, 883 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 1: and that was only good for the seventh most. Gus 884 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 1: Edwards averaged eight carries per game. Yeah, he's out. Justice 885 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 1: Hill averaged three and a half carries per game. He's 886 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:47,240 Speaker 1: really out. I feel like I just found eleven touches 887 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,719 Speaker 1: for JK Dobbins plus Ingram, Gus and Hill were not 888 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 1: involved in the passing game at all. The three of 889 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: them combined for two and a half catches per game. 890 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 1: The Ravens had the third fewest running back receptions in 891 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 1: the league last year, and that's because they didn't have JK. Dobbins, 892 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 1: who can catch out of the backfield. And we saw 893 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 1: the we saw the beautiful catch in the back of 894 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 1: the end zone on Twitter earlier this week. So I 895 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:11,839 Speaker 1: think it's probably an even split on touches, with both 896 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 1: guys getting around fourteen fifteen per game. That means I'm 897 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 1: taking Dobbins two rounds later. Agree with all of them, Scott. 898 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:19,840 Speaker 1: Let's go to Cleveland where Odell Beckham is going in 899 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: the third round, Jarvis Landry in the sixth. This is 900 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: another process of elimination because I just like too many 901 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:29,320 Speaker 1: other players in the third round and people all people 902 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: hate Jarvis Landry for no good reason. Well, you don't 903 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: score touchdowns. That's a good reason. Well, you know, at 904 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 1: the end of the day, more than anything else in 905 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 1: fantasy football, I want touchdowns. Yeah, Well, he has touchdown 906 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,279 Speaker 1: ten touchdowns the last two years, and that's exactly how 907 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:44,439 Speaker 1: many Odell Beckham Junior has in the last two years 908 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: as well. So there's that. So there's that. But we 909 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 1: but we have we have a history that shows Odell 910 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,239 Speaker 1: Beckham can get double digit touched Jarvis Landry's five six 911 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,719 Speaker 1: touchdowns a year. Yeah, that is true. Back when David 912 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:59,399 Speaker 1: Johnson was really good, Odell Beckham Junior was really good too. 913 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,880 Speaker 1: I get that. But but but what I'm saying, Wow, but 914 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:06,840 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is very passive aggressive right there. Jarvis 915 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:09,919 Speaker 1: Lantry has eight plus catches every year, and he's got 916 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: the most catches in the first six years of a 917 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:16,400 Speaker 1: career of all time. Is that true? That's true? You know, 918 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,399 Speaker 1: in fairness, who's ever, Who's ever? It's the most boring 919 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 1: Who's ever? Said? Jarvis Landry sunk my draft? Nobody but 920 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 1: O'Dell sunk a couple of you know, many people's draft. 921 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:27,640 Speaker 1: That's why in the third round there are tons of 922 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: guys I love. In the sixth round. Sure, I'll take 923 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 1: that safe wide receiver to wide receiver three for me. 924 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 1: By the way, Michael Thomas is gonna obliterate that Jarvis 925 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 1: Landry record. This is year six for Michael Thomas. So 926 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 1: we're talking about teammates at the same position and which 927 00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 1: one we'd prefer to have based on where you have 928 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: to draft them. We go to Indianapolis, matt where Jonathan 929 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,520 Speaker 1: Taylor is going in the fourth round, in Marlon Mack 930 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 1: and the ninth. I just want to kind of answer 931 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: this one with a look like, come on, come on, 932 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 1: one of these guys has the potential to be the 933 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: number one running back in football. You can get him 934 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 1: in round four. Of that upside, we've seen enough of Mac. 935 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 1: It's Jonathan Taylor. Yeah, this is the first time we 936 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:09,360 Speaker 1: haven't chosen the lowest available player when we've done this exercise. 937 00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: But it's because it's a round four guy that might 938 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 1: end up being a top five running back. Jonathan Taylor 939 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,360 Speaker 1: is a special back. Marlon Mack isn't. And based on 940 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: that alone is what I hear you say. Yeah, but 941 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 1: I do believe Marlon Max is gonna be a thorn 942 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: in the side, and he's gonna get more playing time 943 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,879 Speaker 1: than any of us want to want to a bunch too, 944 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 1: and it's gonna we're gonna hate all of it, but 945 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:33,280 Speaker 1: Marlon max playing time is just a thorn in our side. 946 00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna want to start Marlon Mack on any rosters 947 00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 1: this year at all. Probably true. All right, Matt, let's 948 00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 1: go to Houston. Will Fuller is going around seven Brandon 949 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,840 Speaker 1: Cooks and round eight. I'll take this woman stuff. Sorry, 950 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 1: by the way, I do like O b J. That 951 00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 1: was a joke with David Johnson. I have him is 952 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 1: like apologize. You can hammer O b J. He's a 953 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 1: big boy, you can take. Uh, this one is quite 954 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: easily Will Follward for me, and it's it's actually not 955 00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 1: even close. I I can't touch cook Cook in the eighth. 956 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: I don't think I can touch him in the tenth even. Honestly, 957 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,600 Speaker 1: there's just other players, uh for for me, Will Fuller 958 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: with a full offseason, give me the guy with tons 959 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: of chemistry with Watson without a fall offseason. I mean Cooks, 960 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: Cooks doesn't have that. Um, this guy's uh the Cooks 961 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: is you know, you're removed from four straight thousand yard 962 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,759 Speaker 1: gate seasons. But Fullers, the guy with all the chemistry, 963 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,640 Speaker 1: all the touchdowns, double digit fantasy points in two thirds 964 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 1: of his games with Deshaun Watson, and Deshaun Watson is 965 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: already singing his praises just really loud. So all right, Matt, 966 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,920 Speaker 1: let's go to Miami. Teammates Jordan Howard going in the 967 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,239 Speaker 1: eighth round or Matt Brita in the ninth. So I'm 968 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:41,879 Speaker 1: cheating and I have exactly two answers to this one. 969 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:45,279 Speaker 1: If it's a PPR league, you take Matt Brida. If 970 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: it is less than a full PPR league, you take 971 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 1: Jordan Howard. Reason Howard has only averaged one point two 972 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 1: receptions per game over the last three years. Brita didn't 973 00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:57,800 Speaker 1: average a ton more. But he's one of the fastest 974 00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 1: backs in the league and was sure handed when given 975 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: the tunity in San Francisco. But I do think Howard 976 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:04,879 Speaker 1: will be the goal line back and we'll get most 977 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 1: of the work near the stripes. So a non PPR 978 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 1: I lead Howard. In PPR, I'm taking Breed. By the way, 979 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:11,839 Speaker 1: we were mentioned this two weeks ago when I did 980 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: vacated targets vacated running. Matt Brida is got sneaky upside. 981 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 1: He sure does zekey upside. The game is among teammates 982 00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,359 Speaker 1: at the same position, same team, which one is better 983 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 1: to draft based on a DP. We're doing the a 984 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 1: f C right now. Denver Melvin Gordon in round four, 985 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay and round eight. Okay, so this this is 986 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 1: a pure cheapest option. If it's a split backfield and 987 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,759 Speaker 1: it sounds like it's gonna be fifty, you take the 988 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 1: cheapest option. I know that Melvin Gordon is the better 989 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:47,839 Speaker 1: pass catching back, but he is Melvin Gordon has had 990 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 1: three years over eight point five yards per catch, and 991 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 1: I think, uh, Philip Lindsay's best is five point six. 992 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 1: Even Royce Freeman out caught Philip Lindsay last year is 993 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,799 Speaker 1: just on film. It's it's a different game. Honestly, um 994 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,839 Speaker 1: two or thirty eight point pound. Royce Freeman was better 995 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,319 Speaker 1: in the air. Through the air, get his name right, 996 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:13,360 Speaker 1: it's Royce dropped the piano. Freeman. Royce dropped the piano. 997 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,200 Speaker 1: Freeman was better than Phil Lindsay in the past game 998 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:19,800 Speaker 1: last year. But honestly, with a split backfield, I want 999 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: and I do think it's gonna be like forty some 1000 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 1: catches to thirty some catches, so it's it's negligible, But 1001 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 1: I want the cheaper option in round eight, which is 1002 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:30,120 Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay. I've taken the cheaper option in all but 1003 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 1: two of these scenarios so far. Our final teammates at 1004 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: the same position Oakland wide receivers first round rookie Henry 1005 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 1: Ruggs round ten or third round rookie Brian Edwards round 1006 00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 1: twenty two. I love those twenty two round drafts. By 1007 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,800 Speaker 1: the way, By all accounts, Edwards is ahead of Rugs 1008 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 1: on the depth chart in Vegas right now, So why 1009 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:57,719 Speaker 1: I take the guy twelve rounds later who's ahead on 1010 00:54:57,719 --> 00:54:59,880 Speaker 1: the depth chart? And Edwards is not the burner that 1011 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 1: the Davis family seems to love. That's what Rugs is, 1012 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 1: But he's the most complete wide receiver they have on roster, 1013 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,840 Speaker 1: and the guy out of all their wide receivers, including 1014 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 1: Hunter Renfroe and Tyrelle Williams. Brian Edwards is the guide 1015 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:15,840 Speaker 1: woman roster. When we come back, which teammates at the 1016 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,400 Speaker 1: same position are the better one to draft in the NFC, 1017 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:25,520 Speaker 1: including the very thorny Dallas wide receiver situation. Will break 1018 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,799 Speaker 1: that down and a dozen other teammates at the same 1019 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:57,280 Speaker 1: position when we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Fantasy 1020 00:55:57,320 --> 00:56:00,680 Speaker 1: Football Weekly is backball Church in Guilty Leagues dot Com, 1021 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: Scott Fish and Matt Harrison Shock Fantasy, You've got Empire 1022 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 1: in Dynasty cheat Sheets, rankings, all kinds of good stuff. Oh, 1023 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,399 Speaker 1: I got a promo code for the listeners to please 1024 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,719 Speaker 1: give that out. Peacock peacock like it all right, gets 1025 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 1: you twenty five dollars for the whole year of Shock 1026 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 1: Fantasy all right. Promo code is known as where we 1027 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 1: go there. It is promo code peak. Yeah, I don't 1028 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:31,320 Speaker 1: have to take that. You gotta spell that, spell that sound. 1029 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 1: I think it's got an S, a lot of cues, 1030 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:38,520 Speaker 1: some W in there. There's an H for sure. It's 1031 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:43,200 Speaker 1: a silent age. Which teammates at the same position is 1032 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:45,480 Speaker 1: the better one to draft? We just did the a 1033 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,480 Speaker 1: f C. We broke down a f C teammates and 1034 00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:50,160 Speaker 1: it's got to be based on ADP. We're not just 1035 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 1: saying which guy's better, We're just saying, based on where 1036 00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:54,760 Speaker 1: you have to take them in a drafter in auction, 1037 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 1: who would you rather have? You know what I was 1038 00:56:56,760 --> 00:57:00,800 Speaker 1: thinking during the break. This just screams you are trade 1039 00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:03,359 Speaker 1: down as much as possible. It really does. You know. 1040 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: In the a f C we said trade down in six, seven, eight, 1041 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:11,960 Speaker 1: eight of the ten scenarios had to trade down. This 1042 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 1: also screams, don't spend more than fifteen in an auction. Yes, 1043 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 1: it really does. Its validates almost everything we've been saying. 1044 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,800 Speaker 1: Trade down in draft, you don't spend too much in auctions. 1045 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, let's another one of those right there, which 1046 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 1: to adalysis. Later in the segment proves our dalysis from earlier, 1047 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,280 Speaker 1: which deemates at the same position are the is the 1048 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:37,760 Speaker 1: better one to draft. We go to Dallas wide receivers 1049 00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 1: a Marii Cooper going in the third round, Michael Gallup 1050 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 1: in the seventh, or Ceedee Lamb in the matt I 1051 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 1: like all of these guys a lot and a lot, 1052 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 1: but unless Cooper falls to the fourth I won't take 1053 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 1: him while doing the Gainesville. So it's down to Gallop 1054 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:58,120 Speaker 1: and Lamb. And with every report out of camp that 1055 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb is the most impressive thing that they've ever seen, 1056 00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna swing for the fences and take 1057 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb because this lines up to me kind of 1058 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:11,000 Speaker 1: like Randy Moss's rookie year he was passed on. He 1059 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 1: goes into a situation with two established really good wide receivers, 1060 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 1: get Chris Carter. Yeah, this looks like it could be 1061 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:21,280 Speaker 1: just like Seedee Lamb just explodes this year. Do we 1062 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 1: see a three one hundred game where Zeke gets a 1063 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 1: hundred all three of those receivers and Jack gets three hundred. 1064 00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 1: You know when that last happened. Vikings Lions, Scott Mitchell, 1065 00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:45,840 Speaker 1: Parriman Morton, and Man Cooper, Gallop Lamb. I think to 1066 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:47,880 Speaker 1: meet Cooper is the least appealing out of those three. 1067 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:50,560 Speaker 1: I would rather have Gallop in round seven, who scored 1068 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:54,560 Speaker 1: about as many Fantasy points as Amari Cooper did last year, 1069 00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:58,000 Speaker 1: and more consistently, and much more consistently. You don't get 1070 00:58:58,000 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: the highs and the lows you get out of a 1071 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 1: Marie Cooper. He's the plays a player I never end 1072 00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:04,320 Speaker 1: up having. Let's go to the opposite. I take him everywhere. 1073 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,280 Speaker 1: I reached the heck up for him in our guillotine. 1074 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:10,360 Speaker 1: I reached for him for for Mary Cooper, No for 1075 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: Gallup with Gallup, Okay, yeah, he's perfect for guillotine format, 1076 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:17,520 Speaker 1: no doubt, because of the consistency. Let's go to the 1077 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:22,160 Speaker 1: giant Scott Sterling Shepherd Round ten, Darius Slayton, Round ten, 1078 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: Golden Tate. At the end of round ten, I'll call 1079 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 1: it round eleven. Which one do you want? So it's Slayton, 1080 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 1: and it's because like I don't. I know, he's not 1081 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,000 Speaker 1: the most consistent of them. He's just got the most upside. 1082 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 1: He's he's the one that's that's splash year. He can 1083 00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:40,280 Speaker 1: have the bigger games. He scored more touchdowns in both 1084 00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,680 Speaker 1: of them last year. If I'm in round ten, it's 1085 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 1: my wider super four or five. I've already got my starters. 1086 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:48,200 Speaker 1: I want the splashy upside guy. Yeah, I think that. 1087 00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:50,000 Speaker 1: And by the way, that's an over that's an overriding 1088 00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,680 Speaker 1: draft strategy that we should probably should have mentioned earlier 1089 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:56,480 Speaker 1: in the draft strategy w C Baby. If side wins championship, 1090 00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:59,479 Speaker 1: upside wins, and later in your draft that it should 1091 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:01,480 Speaker 1: be also should be swinging for the fences. Once you've 1092 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 1: got your established starters, you those you can three, but 1093 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,360 Speaker 1: right throw the darts, uh and make him good. Matt. 1094 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:10,959 Speaker 1: Let's go to Chicago running back David Montgomery and round 1095 01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:14,680 Speaker 1: five probably lower uh in more recent drafts, or Tree 1096 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:17,960 Speaker 1: Cohen in round eight. The correct answer is avoid this 1097 01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:21,200 Speaker 1: backfield at all costs, or take Cordarrel Patterson in the 1098 01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 1: last round, dear draft, Or if I have to choose 1099 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:26,920 Speaker 1: between the two, how about Spencer Ware off the board. 1100 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 1: Free agent maybe, Uh, if I have to choose between 1101 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 1: the two, though, I'm still going to probably take David Montgomery. 1102 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 1: He's definitely going to be a little bit lower in 1103 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:40,280 Speaker 1: a DP right now because if he's probably six or 1104 01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 1: seventh round, Tree Cohen might have moved up around, so 1105 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 1: he's probably six or seven, and I think when all 1106 01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 1: are healthy, David Montgomery is the guy who's going to 1107 01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 1: get the goal line work. He had eight teen carries 1108 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,720 Speaker 1: inside the five last year, and he's probably gonna be 1109 01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:55,920 Speaker 1: the guy who gets closer to twenty touches per game, 1110 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,280 Speaker 1: and that's a guy can get maybe in the sixth 1111 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,920 Speaker 1: or seventh right now, So that's okay. This is a 1112 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,200 Speaker 1: great time to draft him if you were planning on 1113 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:04,880 Speaker 1: if you even liked him a little, this is the 1114 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 1: time to draft. His value so low and it's possible 1115 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 1: that David Montgomery doesn't miss a game. It's also possibly 1116 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 1: as a setback on the groining. And we're talking about 1117 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,120 Speaker 1: this in October, so you know, there's there's plenty of risk. 1118 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 1: And he certainly did not look like a special back 1119 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 1: last year, and there's nothing about what we heard in 1120 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 1: training camp suggested it looked any better. This year. I'm 1121 01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 1: not saying he's special, no, I know neither. I'm saying 1122 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 1: the opportunity is there. The opportunity is the big thing, hey, 1123 01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:34,480 Speaker 1: and opportunities a single most important part of fantasy football 1124 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 1: at every position. Scott's go to Detroit, will stay in 1125 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,040 Speaker 1: the NFC North running back DeAndre Swift in the fifth round, 1126 01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:42,720 Speaker 1: or carry on Johnson in the ninth. So DeAndre Swift 1127 01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: is dinged up a little, but I'm gonna let carry on. 1128 01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 1: Johnson asked to this answer this question when he was 1129 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,600 Speaker 1: asked about how they're working together and what they're learning 1130 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,680 Speaker 1: from each other. Carry on, Johnson said, I can't learn 1131 01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:57,080 Speaker 1: anything from Swift because the way Swift's knees bend and 1132 01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:01,160 Speaker 1: hips work, I can't do any of them. So ready 1133 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:03,560 Speaker 1: he comes up. It does a little shaky dick through 1134 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 1: whatever thing. I can't do that. Just shaky dick, shaky 1135 01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:11,080 Speaker 1: dick whatever thing. I can't do that. So I just said, 1136 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:13,920 Speaker 1: why aren't you doing this? And carry on? Johnson's voice, 1137 01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:17,680 Speaker 1: by the way, that's outstanding. I love that quote. I 1138 01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 1: and I totally missed that, all right. I agree, Matts 1139 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 1: go to Green Bay Aaron Jones in the second round 1140 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,880 Speaker 1: a j Dillon in the fourteenth round or Jamal Williams 1141 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,360 Speaker 1: in the nineteen round. So I have a feeling this 1142 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:34,800 Speaker 1: backfield is going to be pretty messy all season. And 1143 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,560 Speaker 1: by messy, I think they just get They all get 1144 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:40,040 Speaker 1: a lot of work. Um. So I'm going to take 1145 01:02:40,680 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 1: Packers backs only in best ball leagues. I'm not taking 1146 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:45,720 Speaker 1: them in leagues where I have to start one of them. 1147 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm only taking them in best ball leagues. And the 1148 01:02:48,080 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 1: guy had been taking in the last round of just 1149 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:52,680 Speaker 1: about every bit best ball league recently is Jamal Williams. 1150 01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 1: He had five receiving touchdowns last year and was easily 1151 01:02:57,640 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 1: the second best receiving option on the field outside of 1152 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 1: Davante Adams last season. And let's recount all of the 1153 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 1: guys the Packers brought into bolster that passing game. I 1154 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:12,120 Speaker 1: don't have crickets on here. Here, here, take this. It's 1155 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:15,040 Speaker 1: it's of cricket. Sounds just like one of those Green 1156 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 1: Bay crickets. Big there um and chart outline last week 1157 01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:22,240 Speaker 1: that Packers wide receivers don't get targets near the goal line. 1158 01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:25,439 Speaker 1: They had one inside the five last wild and it's 1159 01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:29,560 Speaker 1: because Jones got a lot of carries inside the five, 1160 01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 1: Dylan's gonna take a lot of those this year, and 1161 01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,440 Speaker 1: Jamal Williams was getting a whole bunch of targets inside 1162 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:37,760 Speaker 1: the five. So I think it's Jamal Williams really late. 1163 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,240 Speaker 1: I don't want any part of Jamal Williams. Really. I 1164 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:41,840 Speaker 1: don't want a part of any of these guys much. 1165 01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:43,040 Speaker 1: But I think if I had to pick, when I 1166 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 1: take a j Dillon and just hope that's only doing 1167 01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 1: this in best Ball, Uh, Scott, let's go to Atlanta 1168 01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 1: Julio Jones round two or Calvin Ridley and round four. 1169 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,160 Speaker 1: I think there's one of the toughest ones to decipher 1170 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,560 Speaker 1: my first line. I hate this question because I absolutely 1171 01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:00,560 Speaker 1: love both of them for this year. I I think 1172 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 1: if we see both of them average ten targets game, 1173 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 1: I would not be shocked out of the year. I think. 1174 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 1: I think there's tons of opportunities. So I'm giving it 1175 01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 1: to Calvin Ridley for the two round discount, just so 1176 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 1: I can grab myself a running back or a stud 1177 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:16,000 Speaker 1: tight end in that second round. I'll take Ridley in 1178 01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:18,760 Speaker 1: the fourth. I'm really surprised Lakwan Treadwell wasn't in that 1179 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 1: in round seven, Dwell Russell gage before him. Alright, Matt, 1180 01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:28,520 Speaker 1: let's let's go to another one that might be THORNI 1181 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:32,360 Speaker 1: or than it sounds at first, Michael Thomas in round 1182 01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:36,800 Speaker 1: one or Emmanuel Sanders in round ten. I don't think 1183 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:40,200 Speaker 1: this is Thorny at all. It's Michael Thomas because he's 1184 01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:44,120 Speaker 1: Michael Thomas. Manuel Sanders is nice, but he won't receive 1185 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:46,920 Speaker 1: half of the Thomas target load. He's not a red 1186 01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:50,280 Speaker 1: zone guy like Thomas's. He's going to have a very 1187 01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: fine fourth or fifth wide receiver slot on your roster 1188 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:57,240 Speaker 1: kind of year. Sanders hasn't topped five touchdowns in a 1189 01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:00,280 Speaker 1: season since Peyton Manning was his quarterback. He has top 1190 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:03,240 Speaker 1: to nine hundred yards in three years. He's missed eight 1191 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:06,360 Speaker 1: games due to injury over the last three years. And 1192 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 1: as Scott said, round ten eleven, those those mid round 1193 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,720 Speaker 1: guys you want the upside. I don't think Emmanuel Sanders 1194 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,919 Speaker 1: carries the huge upside that Michael Thomas does. Obviously, wait 1195 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 1: ten more rounds. Take trick one Smith mind brawl done 1196 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 1: with so trying to roll the dice on after said, yeah, 1197 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: whore's predicting breakout season. I don't care. And I think 1198 01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:31,920 Speaker 1: two months ago Michael Thomas was from in my drafts anyway, 1199 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:34,720 Speaker 1: or it was going like pick three, pick four, pick 1200 01:05:34,800 --> 01:05:40,600 Speaker 1: five now later. Now, yeah, it's all running backs in 1201 01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:43,120 Speaker 1: those seven picks. I saw a quote from an analyst 1202 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:44,960 Speaker 1: the other day, and I wish I could remember who 1203 01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 1: so I could credit him, But he said, I don't 1204 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,400 Speaker 1: care if Michael Thomas is there with pick twenty four 1205 01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 1: of the twelve of the second round. So the job 1206 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:55,080 Speaker 1: take two running backs to start your There's a lot 1207 01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:56,760 Speaker 1: of people feel that way this year. It's go to 1208 01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, Chris Godwin will cost you a second rounder, 1209 01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 1: or Mike Evans with a third rounder. Scott uh this one, 1210 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,800 Speaker 1: for me, it's Chris Godwin. I there's a love fest 1211 01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 1: for me and Chris Godwin, but for me, Godwin is 1212 01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:13,040 Speaker 1: just a far better fit with Brady. Godwin plays all over, 1213 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 1: he plays the slow which Brady loves to throw too. 1214 01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 1: He's better on the short yard and stuff. Uh and 1215 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:21,120 Speaker 1: and reports recently are Brady and Evans are getting a 1216 01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 1: little more chemistry, but they're they're just getting it now. 1217 01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:26,200 Speaker 1: It seems like I want the guy that we're in 1218 01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:28,320 Speaker 1: the area where he's used to throwing too. You know, 1219 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:30,120 Speaker 1: we think of Mike Evans and he is a bit 1220 01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:33,520 Speaker 1: of a downfield receiver Jamis Winston for his many faults. 1221 01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:36,200 Speaker 1: You know, he had a cannon. The guy could throw downfield, 1222 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:38,640 Speaker 1: and Brady just doesn't have that in the arm anymore. 1223 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:43,800 Speaker 1: Like Evans was their lead pass receiver inside the infrared zone. 1224 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,880 Speaker 1: So watch that there is that Matt's go to Arizona. 1225 01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:50,000 Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake will cost you a second rounder Chase Edmonds 1226 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:55,280 Speaker 1: a rounder. This might kind of surprise you. I'm gonna 1227 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 1: take Kenyan Drake in round two. That does, because I've 1228 01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:01,080 Speaker 1: seen him going round one and a lot of drafts. 1229 01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,840 Speaker 1: But I'm also going to take Edmonds and reach around 1230 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 1: and take him in round thirteen because it's Kenyan walking 1231 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:11,320 Speaker 1: boot Drake. Uh. He has all the attributes of a 1232 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 1: true fantasy stud. I'm still a tiny bit worried that 1233 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 1: it was fool's gold because he had thirty three percent 1234 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:19,640 Speaker 1: of his Fantasy points in two games last year. So 1235 01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:21,880 Speaker 1: while I will invest in him in round two for 1236 01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:24,840 Speaker 1: the huge upside, I will also require that I get 1237 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:27,720 Speaker 1: his very talented handcuff in Edmonds later in the draft. 1238 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 1: That's a cheating answer. Right there. Yeah, it is, let's 1239 01:07:32,640 --> 01:07:35,160 Speaker 1: pick one or the other. I did. I picked I'm 1240 01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,880 Speaker 1: gonna take Drake. Then I'm gonna have to reach her. 1241 01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:43,000 Speaker 1: Then the game is teammates at the same position, who's 1242 01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:45,920 Speaker 1: the better one to draft based on their average draft position. 1243 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,600 Speaker 1: We go to San Francisco, where he mostarts, going in 1244 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,440 Speaker 1: the sixth round, Tevin Coleman in the ninth Tevin Coleman 1245 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:57,720 Speaker 1: could be going. Still, not taking him just not good 1246 01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:00,680 Speaker 1: doesn't mean he won't be fantasy viable in in that 1247 01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:03,880 Speaker 1: kind of run offense where they spread it around. Absolutely, 1248 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:05,959 Speaker 1: but he's a guy that if he gets four yards 1249 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:08,560 Speaker 1: and carry, you're like, heck, yes, this is amazing. This 1250 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 1: is the best Tevin covid. We're gonna get four yards 1251 01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:14,960 Speaker 1: for Gary uh No, it's moster. He's just too efficient. 1252 01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 1: Five point six yards per uh for per attempt last year, 1253 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:22,559 Speaker 1: twelve point nine yards per reception last year, which is 1254 01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:25,280 Speaker 1: just ridiculous. And that's no fluke. He was used seven 1255 01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:28,000 Speaker 1: eight nine yards per reception the year before that too. 1256 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:31,280 Speaker 1: Um and the Beat reporters have been talking about how 1257 01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:33,320 Speaker 1: most of it is the clear back he's I think 1258 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,080 Speaker 1: he was too, but they're they're going to use a rotation. 1259 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:40,280 Speaker 1: They absolutely, but you made me choose. I did, so 1260 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: that's how and some people can make a choice on 1261 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,120 Speaker 1: this show where he most by the way, when he 1262 01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:51,240 Speaker 1: most asked for the trade, who blinked the team? Teams 1263 01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:54,000 Speaker 1: don't generally blink in those situations at the state. When 1264 01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 1: you get to that point, the team rarely blinks. He goes, Okay, 1265 01:08:57,280 --> 01:09:00,160 Speaker 1: we'll pay you. They paid him. That says plenty about 1266 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:04,080 Speaker 1: the leverage that where he Mostard had final two teammates 1267 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:05,720 Speaker 1: at the same position, Which is the better one to 1268 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:09,240 Speaker 1: draft Dk Metcalf in the fifth round or Tyler Lockett 1269 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:14,320 Speaker 1: in the fifth round at well. Dk averaged five and 1270 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:16,200 Speaker 1: a half targets through the first eight games of the 1271 01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:19,080 Speaker 1: season last year, then seven targets over the final ten 1272 01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:23,040 Speaker 1: games including playoffs. Uh so he increased it by a 1273 01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:27,320 Speaker 1: target and a half. Locket averaged six point eight targets 1274 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 1: over the first date and seven point four over the 1275 01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:31,599 Speaker 1: final ten. He didn't really increase it that much at all. 1276 01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:34,760 Speaker 1: Those don't seem like a big difference, but increasing your 1277 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:38,240 Speaker 1: workload by almost two targets per game as the quarterback 1278 01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:41,120 Speaker 1: and staff started trusting Dk Metcalf more and more leads 1279 01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 1: me to believe that there's untapped upside for him. And 1280 01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:46,120 Speaker 1: I think we've seen Locketts upside and he's a really 1281 01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 1: good solid wide receiver two on fantasy rosters. But Metcalf 1282 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 1: has the chance to vault into wide receiver one territory. 1283 01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:57,599 Speaker 1: Bettcalf has elite elite in him, right. I mean we've 1284 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,639 Speaker 1: seen what Tyler Lockett can do, and it's good, it's 1285 01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:05,720 Speaker 1: not elite. DK Metcalf has the possibility of being a 1286 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:09,000 Speaker 1: top five wide receiver and that body and I think 1287 01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,240 Speaker 1: that's why I would rather take the upside in Dk Metcalf. 1288 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that one. Interestingly, we've gone almost 1289 01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:17,439 Speaker 1: all of the higher a DP guys in this segment. 1290 01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:21,600 Speaker 1: Our final one is in Los Angeles among ram wide receivers, 1291 01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup in the early fourth or Robert Woods in 1292 01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:28,479 Speaker 1: the late fourth round. Let's stick with the higher a 1293 01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 1: DP guys. I'm going Cooper Cup. Uh he he like 1294 01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:35,519 Speaker 1: Woods can break plays Woods maybe the safe, consistent guy 1295 01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:38,599 Speaker 1: that doesn't get hurt. But and cups. Cups has missed 1296 01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 1: time injuries, concussions. But if you told me that, and 1297 01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:43,920 Speaker 1: he's a red zone machine, Cooper Cup is just a 1298 01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 1: machine with targets. And if you told me a round 1299 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:49,960 Speaker 1: four wide receiver ended this season as the number one 1300 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:52,680 Speaker 1: wide receiver in league and and made me bet on it, 1301 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:55,160 Speaker 1: I bet Cooper Cup he has that in him. We 1302 01:10:55,200 --> 01:10:57,120 Speaker 1: talked about it last week. If there was one wide 1303 01:10:57,120 --> 01:10:59,400 Speaker 1: receiver outside of the top ten, who you think could 1304 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:04,080 Speaker 1: finish number one overall? Cooper Cup was the guy I forgot. 1305 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:12,639 Speaker 1: But but yes, I agree with whoever said that. But again, nice, 1306 01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:17,479 Speaker 1: I'm never gonna get to talk. If you want to 1307 01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 1: try the freshest new format in fantasy football, it's called 1308 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:24,760 Speaker 1: the Guillotine League. Seventeen teams start the season.

Pandemonium ensues, 1311 01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:37,120 Speaker 1: with the waiver wire bidding the last team standing wins 1312 01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:39,840 Speaker 1: at all.

We will track that as well. 1317 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 1: When we come back, we will agree to disagree on 1318 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,479 Speaker 1: some of the hottest topics around fantasy football, and release 1319 01:11:55,640 --> 01:12:09,839 Speaker 1: this week's Sleepers, the final segment of Fantasy Football Weekly 1320 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:14,120 Speaker 1: bulcharching from duntin leagues dot Com. Scott Fish and Matt 1321 01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:17,040 Speaker 1: Harrison with you as well. This is our final segment. 1322 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:20,439 Speaker 1: A game that we play most preseasons is called agree 1323 01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:24,240 Speaker 1: to Disagree. This is where each of us battles each 1324 01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:26,320 Speaker 1: other on a particular topic, and you know, a lot 1325 01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:28,280 Speaker 1: of times we end up in lockstep. We convince each 1326 01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:30,679 Speaker 1: other of some of our best takes. Matt has convinced 1327 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:33,559 Speaker 1: me on the upside of Austin Neckler, as one example, 1328 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:35,559 Speaker 1: over the course of this preseason, and I've nudged him 1329 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:37,479 Speaker 1: up over the course of the preseason up my cheat 1330 01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:40,720 Speaker 1: sheet correspondingly. But there are other times that you're just 1331 01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,479 Speaker 1: wrong and I'm not coming to your side of the 1332 01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:48,160 Speaker 1: table on a particular take. So when that's the case, um, 1333 01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:51,880 Speaker 1: we agree to disagree. So we will have a battleground 1334 01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 1: on different topics between each of us. We will begin 1335 01:12:55,400 --> 01:13:01,800 Speaker 1: with Scott versus Matt. The top it gives what is 1336 01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:05,479 Speaker 1: the topic, Jalen reagor alright, who is on the pro 1337 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:08,839 Speaker 1: Reagor side. Oh you know, I am alright, Scott, Scott's 1338 01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:14,040 Speaker 1: pro every wide receiver. I'm Mr Positivity, alright, alright, Mr Sunshine, 1339 01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:22,000 Speaker 1: you go first raining FSG Humanitard alright, lived as it 1340 01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:27,600 Speaker 1: may be, Jalen Reagor, I haven't around wide receiver forty 1341 01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 1: and you haven't met wide receiver fifty three, which is 1342 01:13:30,680 --> 01:13:36,160 Speaker 1: that's too high? Dear Lord? What there are a hundred 1343 01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,599 Speaker 1: and twenty eight vacated targets from that team? Alshan Jeffrey 1344 01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:42,640 Speaker 1: is people expect at this point him to land on 1345 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:44,719 Speaker 1: the pup for the first six weeks of the season. 1346 01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:48,040 Speaker 1: I don't have faith into Sean Jackson anymore. I don't 1347 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:50,720 Speaker 1: have faith in a A. F. S. Greg Ward is 1348 01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:52,559 Speaker 1: as good as you looked at the end of the season. 1349 01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:55,639 Speaker 1: Camp reports have been glowing on Reagor, who is lining 1350 01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:59,280 Speaker 1: up all over the place with the ones. I'm not 1351 01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:01,759 Speaker 1: saying he's gonna be a wide receiver one. I'm saying 1352 01:14:02,160 --> 01:14:05,120 Speaker 1: have him around wide receiver forty. He's a top end 1353 01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:07,800 Speaker 1: wide receiver four on your team. That's that's where I 1354 01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:11,400 Speaker 1: have him. Sure Arts and Goddard are are their top 1355 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:14,880 Speaker 1: two options, but went through for four thousand yards last 1356 01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,679 Speaker 1: year with all the rest of their guys out, what 1357 01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:20,519 Speaker 1: what is Goddard and uh and it's gonna get a 1358 01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:24,400 Speaker 1: thousand each and Miles Standers six hundred and then there's 1359 01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 1: nothing for anybody else. I think he's a wide receiver four. 1360 01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 1: I have him at at around wide receiver forty. Alright, 1361 01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:35,840 Speaker 1: Matt agreed to disagree Jalen Reagor go. I will agree 1362 01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:38,599 Speaker 1: with Scott on one thing. I think Jalen Reagor will 1363 01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:42,679 Speaker 1: probably lead all Eagles wide receivers and catches, but he's 1364 01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:44,920 Speaker 1: going to end up fifth on the team in that 1365 01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:50,920 Speaker 1: category after Zach Ertz, Dallas Goddard, Miles Sanders, and Boston Scott. 1366 01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:57,280 Speaker 1: Wrong on Boston, Yes, you at Boston market is Boston Scott. 1367 01:14:57,640 --> 01:15:00,479 Speaker 1: Over the last seven weeks of the season and when 1368 01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 1: the Eagles wide receivers were absolutely decimated by injury last year, 1369 01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz increased his passing attempts by a ton and 1370 01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:12,280 Speaker 1: Wentz his first nine games he threw forty attempts in 1371 01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:15,160 Speaker 1: a game only twice. In his final seven games, he 1372 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 1: topped forty passing attempts in every game. That's with no 1373 01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 1: wide receivers around, so who did he throw? Wouldn't that 1374 01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:25,400 Speaker 1: mean he's gonna throw that many more balls to Jalen Reagor, 1375 01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:28,360 Speaker 1: who did he throw to? Zach ERT's average ten targets 1376 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:32,320 Speaker 1: per game a necessity, Dallas Goddard averaged eight. Miles Sanders 1377 01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:37,559 Speaker 1: and Boston Scott each averaged five targets per game. Receivers 1378 01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:42,519 Speaker 1: were like Ward way better. What do tight end and 1379 01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:46,080 Speaker 1: running back pass routes have in common? High percentage, low 1380 01:15:46,160 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 1: depth of target, high efficiency. The wide receiver group during 1381 01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:51,600 Speaker 1: that time sounds like the kind of thing you do 1382 01:15:51,640 --> 01:15:53,600 Speaker 1: when you don't trust your wide receivers. Sounds like the 1383 01:15:53,680 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 1: kind of thing you do when you want your offense 1384 01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:57,439 Speaker 1: to function and you want to win games down the 1385 01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:00,360 Speaker 1: stretch to win the NFC East, which, by the way, 1386 01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:03,960 Speaker 1: they did. The wide receiver group only averaged fifteen targets 1387 01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:06,519 Speaker 1: per game. Eight receptions and a hundred and two is 1388 01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:10,519 Speaker 1: a group. If you spread that around, maybe Jalen Reagor's 1389 01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:14,240 Speaker 1: getting six targets a game, four catches sixty yards? Whoop 1390 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:17,600 Speaker 1: de do Jalen now listeners at home? You get to 1391 01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:20,320 Speaker 1: decide who won. That's called agreed to disigree. You better 1392 01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:24,680 Speaker 1: put up a post gets to decide who the winner was. 1393 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,439 Speaker 1: You just heard the Jalen Reagor battle. Here comes a 1394 01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:32,160 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson battle. Me and Matt I say, Lamar Jackson 1395 01:16:32,200 --> 01:16:35,679 Speaker 1: is worth a first round pick. I should not even 1396 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:40,360 Speaker 1: have to defend taking the highest scoring player in fantasy 1397 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:43,360 Speaker 1: football last year in the first round. The next year, 1398 01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:47,040 Speaker 1: not only was the the highest scoring by ESPN scoring, 1399 01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:50,639 Speaker 1: he was a hundred points better than Christian McCaffrey. There's 1400 01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:52,559 Speaker 1: no doubt that he should go in the first round. Now. 1401 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:56,720 Speaker 1: Needless to say, Lamar Jackson is a massive differentiator at 1402 01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:59,479 Speaker 1: his position, and that is the surest way to win 1403 01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 1: the lead. Get positional differentiation. How much better was Jackson 1404 01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:06,799 Speaker 1: than Patrick Mahomes last year? He was a passing touchdown 1405 01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:10,400 Speaker 1: and a half per game better. How much better was 1406 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:14,320 Speaker 1: he than the average starting quarterback quarterback six Russell Wilson. 1407 01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:18,519 Speaker 1: Jackson was a touchdown and a half and fifty passing 1408 01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:20,799 Speaker 1: yards better. And if you were to slopt the quarterback 1409 01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:23,800 Speaker 1: position all the way to quarterback twelve, how much better 1410 01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:26,759 Speaker 1: was he than Tom Brady last year? That same touchdown 1411 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:29,400 Speaker 1: and a half, that same fifty passing yards per game 1412 01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:33,479 Speaker 1: and throwing twenty rushing yards better than Tom Brady. You're 1413 01:17:33,479 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 1: getting Tom Brady plus a touchdown and a half fifty 1414 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:39,080 Speaker 1: yards and touch rushing yards. We said it over and 1415 01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:41,799 Speaker 1: over again last year. Lamar Jackson's like having a starting 1416 01:17:41,960 --> 01:17:45,599 Speaker 1: running back and the starting quarterback. There's no plausible reason 1417 01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 1: for him to regress. He should go in the first round. 1418 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:52,200 Speaker 1: There's a plausible reason for him to regress. It's because 1419 01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:56,760 Speaker 1: it always happens. Do you know the last time we 1420 01:17:56,840 --> 01:18:00,000 Speaker 1: had a quarterback finish number one in back to back 1421 01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:06,599 Speaker 1: seasons Manning, No, I don't know. Dante Culpepper two thousand three, 1422 01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:09,640 Speaker 1: two thousand four. That was the last time we had 1423 01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:12,759 Speaker 1: a number one and Culpepper, while he was a running threat, 1424 01:18:13,680 --> 01:18:16,840 Speaker 1: it wasn't his running that propelled him that those years. 1425 01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:19,400 Speaker 1: He had forty seven hundred yards in one of those seasons, 1426 01:18:19,439 --> 01:18:22,840 Speaker 1: so his passing ability, especially with Randy Moss, really helped 1427 01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:26,240 Speaker 1: propel him throughout those seasons. Throughout this offseason, John Harbaugh 1428 01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:29,759 Speaker 1: has said that he wants to make their offense more balanced, 1429 01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:32,360 Speaker 1: and by balanced, I think that means taking hits off 1430 01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:35,920 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Out of the one thousand thirty six plays 1431 01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:39,360 Speaker 1: the Ravens ran last season, six hundred six team were 1432 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:44,479 Speaker 1: pass attempts. Lamar Jackson runs or sacks hundred and seventy 1433 01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:47,320 Speaker 1: six rushing attempts. For Jackson, he had more rushing attempts 1434 01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:50,200 Speaker 1: than Dak Prescott and Josh Allen combined. That's why I 1435 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:56,639 Speaker 1: like it. That's not every rushing quarterback goes through this process. 1436 01:18:56,880 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 1: They had the year that is otherworldly. Then the coach 1437 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:01,760 Speaker 1: says they need to be more balanced, and one of 1438 01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:04,120 Speaker 1: two things happened. They try to force him into being 1439 01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:06,800 Speaker 1: more of a pocket passer or he gets hurt. So 1440 01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:09,280 Speaker 1: there's a huge risk in taking Jackson earlier. I'll take 1441 01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:12,639 Speaker 1: Josh Allen in round six, who also had a hundred 1442 01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:16,040 Speaker 1: rushing attempts last year and, by the way, more touchdowns 1443 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:18,080 Speaker 1: on the ground than Lamar Jackson. All Right, our final 1444 01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:20,920 Speaker 1: agree to disagree? You know what, I gotta stop us here, Yes, 1445 01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:22,920 Speaker 1: I gotta stop us here. I know we're doing a 1446 01:19:22,960 --> 01:19:26,879 Speaker 1: fun segment on agree to Disagree, but fun the listeners 1447 01:19:26,880 --> 01:19:29,439 Speaker 1: don't know about this.

Yes, 1459 01:20:14,240 --> 01:20:17,600 Speaker 1: I I like Matthew Stafford. And he was great to 1460 01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 1: the first half of last year before the injury, right, 1461 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:24,680 Speaker 1: he was on paces and forty touchdowns and he's been 1462 01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:27,000 Speaker 1: a four thousand yard touchdown or four thousand yard guy 1463 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:29,720 Speaker 1: like every year of his career. And you gotta make 1464 01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:32,519 Speaker 1: QB sixteen. It's just a lot of good qbs. That's 1465 01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:34,400 Speaker 1: all a lot of great weapon. You know what I'm 1466 01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:37,160 Speaker 1: I am I'm nervous about. I'm worry not just last 1467 01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 1: year's injury, just where he is in the ark of 1468 01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:42,320 Speaker 1: his career, with the injuries, the rumors of him retiring. 1469 01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:45,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just It's just there's a lot 1470 01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:46,760 Speaker 1: of good guy. I like him. I like a lot 1471 01:20:46,800 --> 01:20:50,719 Speaker 1: of other quarterbacks. Coaching staff that's probably leading the odds 1472 01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:54,799 Speaker 1: for first coach fired. Maybe maybe you know it's it's 1473 01:20:54,840 --> 01:20:57,720 Speaker 1: he's still the Lions quarterback that worries me a little bit. 1474 01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:00,000 Speaker 1: And and actually, you know, I like staff Is Stafford 1475 01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:02,080 Speaker 1: been a drafted by a different team, he'd have Super 1476 01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:05,760 Speaker 1: Bowl rings. It's just that I can't trust the Lions yet. 1477 01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:08,759 Speaker 1: By the way, Kenny, if they Stufford and Kenny Golladay 1478 01:21:08,760 --> 01:21:14,960 Speaker 1: were exactly, Kenny Golladay would have fourches receiver. Dang. Yeah, 1479 01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:17,840 Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay is really good. And Marvin Jones is good too. 1480 01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:20,280 Speaker 1: He's got to stay healthy though. That's part of the deal, 1481 01:21:20,439 --> 01:21:23,080 Speaker 1: is we gotta get Marvin Jones to stay stay healthy, 1482 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:24,800 Speaker 1: which is a big part of it. We wrap up 1483 01:21:24,800 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 1: every show with sleepers. We released three each show, we 1484 01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:32,360 Speaker 1: each release one. I've already given you just stone cold 1485 01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:35,160 Speaker 1: winners so far over the course of the Are you 1486 01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:39,439 Speaker 1: precocking over there? I am? As a matter of John 1487 01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:43,440 Speaker 1: ou Smith and Zack Moss and Paris Campbell and Baker Mayfield, 1488 01:21:43,560 --> 01:21:48,120 Speaker 1: all guys are all guys excellent excellent sleepers for your team. 1489 01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:52,240 Speaker 1: Let's begin with Matt You're sleeper this week. I've got 1490 01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:57,880 Speaker 1: Dare talked nicely, thank you. We talked about some inside 1491 01:21:57,920 --> 01:21:59,680 Speaker 1: the five numbers on the last week's show, and one 1492 01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:01,719 Speaker 1: of the things that piqued my interest was the Tampa 1493 01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:05,240 Speaker 1: situation last year inside the five, Tampa's rushing attempt totals 1494 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:08,639 Speaker 1: went to Peyton Barber with ten gone, then a gon 1495 01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:12,320 Speaker 1: Bo with seven, then then Ronald Jones with four and 1496 01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:14,880 Speaker 1: a gun was the only running back to receive a 1497 01:22:14,960 --> 01:22:18,599 Speaker 1: target inside the five. He had to Peyton Barber is gone, 1498 01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:23,080 Speaker 1: Bruce Arians seemed to trust Dare more than Rojoe last year. Plus, 1499 01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 1: let's talk about Ronald jones terrible pass blocking ratings from 1500 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:29,120 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus last year and the fact that he's 1501 01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:31,439 Speaker 1: looked if he at best catching the ball in camp. 1502 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 1: If Tom Brady's blown up once by a missed assignment 1503 01:22:35,080 --> 01:22:37,960 Speaker 1: by Rojoe, he may never see the field again. And 1504 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:41,679 Speaker 1: Dario Gunbala could be the Tampa version of James White, 1505 01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:44,680 Speaker 1: which is a pretty decent you know, flex play and 1506 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:48,759 Speaker 1: every everyone turns into that. Ye alright, Scott, You're sleeper 1507 01:22:48,840 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 1: this week. Lavisca Chenult jr. Uh coaches, team writers, beat writers. 1508 01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:56,080 Speaker 1: They're all super impressed with him in camp. Gardnerman shoes 1509 01:22:56,120 --> 01:22:58,800 Speaker 1: calling him freak. Uh. If you've watched him, you know 1510 01:22:58,920 --> 01:23:01,440 Speaker 1: he's an absolute play maker, kind of kind of reminiscent 1511 01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:04,679 Speaker 1: of of Cordeo Patterson with the ball in his hands, 1512 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:07,479 Speaker 1: just ridiculous with the ball in his hands. Um, he's 1513 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,280 Speaker 1: already running as the number two in that offense. D D. 1514 01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:13,439 Speaker 1: Westbrook is hurt, keeling cole Is Rubert to be released. 1515 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:17,960 Speaker 1: Who's the other guy? Chris Conley? Hey, he was, he 1516 01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:20,760 Speaker 1: was for three games, for three games. We we have 1517 01:23:20,840 --> 01:23:23,919 Speaker 1: a beat on Chris Connelly on this show. Yeah, but Leavisca, 1518 01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:27,960 Speaker 1: he go get yourself some of visa. He's going so late. 1519 01:23:28,080 --> 01:23:30,400 Speaker 1: He's the number two there. I'm with you if you 1520 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 1: like Gardner Minshew at all. You know, and the game 1521 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 1: scripts are just gonna be passing countily. Jacksonville could have 1522 01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:37,679 Speaker 1: the worst defense in the league, four nets, not getting 1523 01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:41,320 Speaker 1: seventy catches again or whatever. No, I think I'm with 1524 01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:43,599 Speaker 1: you on that. And it's weird to see these these 1525 01:23:43,680 --> 01:23:48,000 Speaker 1: rookie receivers are going so late this year. And we 1526 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:50,639 Speaker 1: know that, you know, the last five six years, rookie 1527 01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:53,840 Speaker 1: receivers called some pop and just like nobody thinks that 1528 01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:57,919 Speaker 1: even we're gonna pop this year, which is bizarre. My sleeper, 1529 01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:01,120 Speaker 1: I want to play a game. See how many clues 1530 01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:03,280 Speaker 1: you need to figure this out? Now, you guys already know, 1531 01:24:03,280 --> 01:24:07,960 Speaker 1: because already told you it is. I forgot my sleepers. 1532 01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:12,280 Speaker 1: Average draft position, and I'm not kidding, is three hundred 1533 01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 1: sixty six. That sounds that is round of these thirty 1534 01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:21,120 Speaker 1: one round leagues. It is. It is round thirty one 1535 01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:25,400 Speaker 1: for this guy. So we're talking deep sleeper. He's going 1536 01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:30,639 Speaker 1: off the board as wide receiver one hundred five. Now 1537 01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:35,080 Speaker 1: this sleeper is a starting wide receiver on one of 1538 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:39,200 Speaker 1: the highest scoring offenses in the NFL. Oh, I got it. 1539 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:43,680 Speaker 1: He was. He was a third round pick and so 1540 01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:46,320 Speaker 1: at wide receivers, so there was real equity put into him, 1541 01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:50,280 Speaker 1: and people obviously liked him out of college. Now do 1542 01:24:50,280 --> 01:24:54,240 Speaker 1: you have it yet, listeners, don't say it? Did you? Excellent? 1543 01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:58,080 Speaker 1: He's in his second year and in many times, second 1544 01:24:58,160 --> 01:25:00,720 Speaker 1: year is when it clicks for receivers. Years ago, it 1545 01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:03,400 Speaker 1: used to be three years, then over the past decade, 1546 01:25:03,439 --> 01:25:05,920 Speaker 1: really it's the second year for wide receivers is when 1547 01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:08,559 Speaker 1: it clicks. This is this player's second year. Do you 1548 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:12,479 Speaker 1: know who I'm talking about? Lat Yet last year this 1549 01:25:12,560 --> 01:25:17,960 Speaker 1: mystery player lad his team in yards per reception, downfield 1550 01:25:18,080 --> 01:25:21,479 Speaker 1: threatn for this mystery player, you know who it is. 1551 01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:29,799 Speaker 1: His quarterback is one of the universally drafted top two 1552 01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:40,920 Speaker 1: in fantasy football, and yet nobody's drafting Miles boykine I 1553 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:45,639 Speaker 1: love it. Miles Boykin, second year wide receiver, getting strong 1554 01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 1: praise from offensive coordinator Greg Roman this week, saying that 1555 01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:53,760 Speaker 1: he sees a giant step coming for Boykin this year. 1556 01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:58,599 Speaker 1: The Ravens were the highest scoring offense in football last year, 1557 01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:02,439 Speaker 1: and he's a starting wide receiver with all this room 1558 01:26:02,479 --> 01:26:07,799 Speaker 1: to grow into the job. Miles Boykin one of my 1559 01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:11,839 Speaker 1: favorite deep deep sleepers. John O. Smith's made deep sleeper 1560 01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:15,120 Speaker 1: Zack Moss was, He's not anymore. This is super super 1561 01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 1: off the radar, last pick of year draft Miles Boykin. 1562 01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:27,800 Speaker 1: By the way, uh uh twenty four four two? I know, 1563 01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:33,559 Speaker 1: no kidding, super fast, he's he was a six ft yes, 1564 01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:39,920 Speaker 1: four four two, that's freakish, freakish Scott. Before the show 1565 01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:41,640 Speaker 1: we were talking a little bit. We've got about a 1566 01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 1: minute and a half. Is there a player that you're 1567 01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,760 Speaker 1: already worried that we're all wrong about the player that 1568 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:49,800 Speaker 1: you think, you know what, this guy could be good, 1569 01:26:49,840 --> 01:26:52,880 Speaker 1: but you can't get yourself just quite change your rankings yet. Yeah, 1570 01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:54,720 Speaker 1: I was, I was thinking about this earlier. I have 1571 01:26:55,160 --> 01:27:00,599 Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater ranked in the low twenties. Likes me maybe, Yeah, 1572 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:03,479 Speaker 1: I feel like that's right. But the more I think 1573 01:27:03,479 --> 01:27:06,040 Speaker 1: about it, He's got all these weapons. Ian Thomas is 1574 01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:09,280 Speaker 1: reportedly looking great. He's got, you know, replacing Greg Olsen. 1575 01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:14,200 Speaker 1: Thereel D J. Moore, J. Moore, Curtis Samuel, Yeah, yeah, 1576 01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel, d J. Moore, Robby Anderson's now there on 1577 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:18,960 Speaker 1: the outside, Christian McCaffrey, a lot of good dump off 1578 01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:22,000 Speaker 1: options for him. And that Carolina defense is not good. 1579 01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:25,760 Speaker 1: They're gonna be behind a lot. Uh. Teddy Bridgewater didn't 1580 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:27,920 Speaker 1: have great yardage totals with New Orleans last year, but 1581 01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:30,160 Speaker 1: they were before that. Yeah, and they were aheading a 1582 01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:31,680 Speaker 1: lot of those games, and that those were like ten 1583 01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:37,720 Speaker 1: win Vikings teams too, um with good defenses. By the way, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1584 01:27:37,800 --> 01:27:40,679 Speaker 1: yeah exactly. I think you know, I wouldn't be surprised. 1585 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,439 Speaker 1: I can't move them up my rankings, but I wouldn't 1586 01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:44,120 Speaker 1: be surprised if at the end of the year, I'm like, 1587 01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:46,719 Speaker 1: how did I not see this coming? All the weapons, 1588 01:27:46,840 --> 01:27:49,680 Speaker 1: bad defense? What's the real upside for Teddy Bridgewater? What 1589 01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:53,000 Speaker 1: you couldn't see what coming? I could see him. I 1590 01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:55,679 Speaker 1: could see him moving up into that QB twelve thirteen 1591 01:27:55,760 --> 01:28:01,080 Speaker 1: fourteen range with with two yards a game, a couple 1592 01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:03,920 Speaker 1: of touchdowns a game kind of guy that and and 1593 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:08,040 Speaker 1: we started more weeks than we think we could. I 1594 01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:16,599 Speaker 1: think his upside to me feels like quarterback because manager 1595 01:28:16,800 --> 01:28:19,040 Speaker 1: absolutely he may not complete a pass of more than 1596 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:22,599 Speaker 1: nine yards here. That's what I'm saying. I'm not moving 1597 01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:24,560 Speaker 1: my rankings at all. But if at the end of 1598 01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:27,439 Speaker 1: the season that's what it is, you know we're gonna 1599 01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:29,720 Speaker 1: we'll play this segment back and go well done. We 1600 01:28:29,800 --> 01:28:32,120 Speaker 1: knew enough to know we were wrong in in August, 1601 01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:34,559 Speaker 1: we didn't do anything about it. You might be right 1602 01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 1: about that. They're gonna be behind a lot. He's gonna 1603 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:38,680 Speaker 1: pass a lot. He just needs all his receivers to 1604 01:28:38,720 --> 01:28:42,000 Speaker 1: be special after the catch because he can't deliver downfield. 1605 01:28:42,040 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 1: They're kind of all good at that. That helps there's 1606 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:47,360 Speaker 1: a little something there.
