1
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, It's Tuesday, September tenth, twenty twenty four. Welcome

2
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: to the NFL Fantasy Football Show, where we're probably talking

3
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 1: too much about action. Ron Sims, Me and your man

4
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: MG Marcus Grant joined by Michael F. Florio and Lakwan Jones,

5
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: and we are officially through week one. Hopefully it was

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 1: a positive and prosperous week one for a lot of

7
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: you out there. Not a lot of passing yards across

8
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,319
Speaker 1: the week to be seen, which means receivers tight end

9
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: had a rough go of it. It was a pretty

10
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 1: good week though for running backs across the board as well,

11
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: so that means we can go start to turn the

12
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 1: page on week one and get into week two. Fellas,

13
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: have we have we over I guess we're gonna overreact

14
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 1: a little bit?

15
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: Have we overreacted to enough things?

16
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: Lakwan A, We are we back on even keel now

17
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: after week one and ready to turn the page.

18
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm done to overreact, and I'm kind of more

19
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 3: so looking to the edited next week.

20
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 4: But I just want to get off my chest real quick.

21
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 2: JK.

22
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 3: Dobbins hype, can we just were down? Let me see

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 3: him play four more games before I start overreacting.

24
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 1: No, we're gonna overreact immediately.

25
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 2: Do it now.

26
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: I look, I I'm willing to say that I was

27
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: wrong on this one. Like the dal was a healthy scratch,

28
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: uh and JK Dobbins just completely eight becus Edwards was

29
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: there in mud was kind of.

30
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 4: Wet jeans, running with wet jeans on.

31
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: And here's the thing, like we were sort of told.

32
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah told us to watch out for JK. Dobbins,

33
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: And generally when DJ speaks, I listened. This time, I

34
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: decided to go on my own and I've learned my lesson.

35
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: I've learned my lesson. Daniel Jeremiah says, I'm going to

36
00:01:58,720 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: believe it.

37
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 5: Tweeted me that.

38
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 6: JK looked slow and it has to be because he

39
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 6: got chased down on that one long run he had.

40
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 6: But I'm like, this is his first NFL game since

41
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 6: tearing his achilles, Like, ye, I imagine he is going

42
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,239
Speaker 6: to get better conditioned and stuff as.

43
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:15,799
Speaker 2: He keeps playing.

44
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's gonna get walked down. It's probably gonna happen

45
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 1: again before he gets into full shape.

46
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 2: For sure.

47
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about some guys though, who disappointed and

48
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: whether or not we're panicked or we are going to

49
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: preach patients on. Some of these guys also give you

50
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: some deep dive waiver wire options. We had more of

51
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: a waiver wire show on Mondays, and go back and

52
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: check that out. And since we are adding people, we

53
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: have to save goodbye to people. So who is somebody

54
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 1: we can say goodbye to? But let's go start with

55
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: a little bit of Panic or Patience. I got four

56
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: guys here who were underwhelming, to say the least. Some

57
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: of these may or may not have come from my

58
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: own rosters. This might be completely self serving, but this

59
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: is what we're going to do. So let's start Floria

60
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: with Terry McLaurin, who went a good long while in

61
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: that game on Sunday before he even got his first.

62
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: By the time the day was over, he had two

63
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: catches for a grand total of seventeen yards.

64
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: Panic or Patients with Terry McLaurin.

65
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 6: I feel like I'm going to be very boring this segment,

66
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 6: but I'm practicing patients here. I don't love the four

67
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 6: targets like that. I wish was higher, but he did

68
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 6: lead them in routes the commanders were They did run

69
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 6: very fast paced offense, which I love. They actually ran

70
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 6: the fastest paced offense in Week one, but it was

71
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 6: a lot of short stuff and it seemed like they

72
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 6: didn't want to put too much on Jaden Daniel's plate

73
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 6: in his first game playing, so I kind.

74
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:36,839
Speaker 5: Of I get that.

75
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 6: Also, Terry had one downfield where Jaden just he was

76
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 6: open and Jayden just put a little too much air

77
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 6: under it. If they connect on that, we're talking about

78
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 6: that being a long touchdown. I know those if some

79
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 6: butts only count in horseshoes and not in fantasy football,

80
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 6: but opportunity is what matters, and he had the chance

81
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 6: to make a big play there. I do think Terry.

82
00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 5: Will get more utilized.

83
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 6: The only thing I hate, and this is something that

84
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 6: Marcus you did a good job of highlighting in the preseason,

85
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 6: he was tethered to the left side. Cliff Kingsbury continues

86
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 6: to have no imagination when it comes to wide receiver

87
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 6: one usage.

88
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: I was really keeping an eye on that right because

89
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: that was the thing that some of the Beat reporters

90
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: mentioned that it looked like they were gonna.

91
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 2: Move him around from side to side.

92
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 1: But when it came down to it, I think he

93
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: played all but like four snaps on the left side

94
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: of the formation. So Cliff Kingsbury apparently whatever he thought

95
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: up in practice, decided that that wasn't going to work.

96
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 2: So we'll see if that changes.

97
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: But that was definitely a frustrating development for Terry McLaurin.

98
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 4: Yep, his routes were on the left side. Not great,

99
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 4: Bob going one on the right.

100
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 2: That was really disappointing.

101
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 1: Since we're speaking of past catchers who were frustrating and disappointing.

102
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman maybe not as bad as McLaurin. He had

103
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: four catches for thirty one yards, but it was kind

104
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: of the Alec Pierce Ashton Doolan Show with Anthony Richardson

105
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: on Sunday, So Patients or Panic or Patients LaQuan with

106
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman.

107
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 4: I'mna be patient, man.

108
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 3: This is week one, and Anthony Richardson was going out there,

109
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: Aaron the ball out having fun using his feet. It's

110
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 3: one of those things where you just have to understand

111
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 3: maybe this is how the game just crumbled out, you know,

112
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 3: And I feel like, you know, Michael Pittman is still

113
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 3: that number one wide receiver that he could rely on.

114
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 3: He's one of those guys that you can hit downfield,

115
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 3: intermediate or even close to the line of scrimmage as well.

116
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 3: I mean, I feel as though Michael Pittman's are all

117
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 3: around wide receiver. And it's week one, people, Let's not panic,

118
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 3: let's buckle up. We're here for week two, and I

119
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 3: think they get it together in week two.

120
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 5: Yeah.

121
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sort of hoping though, because you mentioned

122
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: Pittman is gonna be a guy who sort of runs

123
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: a lot of his routes in the intermediate part of

124
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: the field. I don't want Anthony Richardson to get Will

125
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 1: levis Idis, which for Will levis the intermediate part of

126
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: the field is lava like. He just doesn't It's either

127
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: deep or it's short, that's all there is to it.

128
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: And I'm hoping we don't sort of get this with

129
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson where he's either you know, bombs away to

130
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce or he's like taking off to run or

131
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: maybe dumping it off underneath.

132
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 2: I hope that he remembers that Michael Pittman is there.

133
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: They seem to have a good connection last year, so

134
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna chalk this up to just this being a

135
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: sort of one week thing.

136
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 6: He is the most worried about on this list really

137
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 6: because I Anthony Richardson is going to have a lot

138
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 6: of games like this, I think, where he's not completing

139
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 6: a lot of passes and it comes down like last

140
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 6: year his completion percentage was one of the worst in football.

141
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 5: This this first game it was less than fifty percent.

142
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 6: I think they'll be he's gonna air it out deep

143
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 6: and he's gonna run, and that works for him and

144
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 6: for this offense. I'm not convinced it works necessarily. For

145
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 6: I love Pittman in real life, I avoided him in

146
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 6: fantasy because I had concerns over like is he gonna

147
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 6: get enough volume?

148
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 5: I know the volume was there, but like you said,

149
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 5: the short intermediate passes, isn't the strength of the Colts. Yeah,

150
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 5: I don't know.

151
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: I started boding just because I feel like he's the

152
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: number one wide receiver there and at some point they're

153
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: just going to try to force the ball to him.

154
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 2: So that was sort of the thing.

155
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 1: But like I said on Monday, maybe I was a

156
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: year too soon on Alec Pearce.

157
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 2: So we will find out about that, all right.

158
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: Florio backsee for Dalton Kincaid. I talked about him yesterday.

159
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: I said on yesterday's show that I was not panicked

160
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: about him, just the was it the one catch for

161
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: eleven yards on a pair of targets?

162
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 2: That was it for Kinkaid.

163
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I know how you're going to rule

164
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: on this one, But panic or patients for the number

165
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: one tight end in Buffalo.

166
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 6: Patients patients for everyone, because it's one game and if

167
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 6: the player has a done in week eight, we're not

168
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 6: viewing it under a microscope like we are in week one.

169
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 5: But especially for Kincaid, he played eighty eight percent of

170
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 5: the snaps. He ran the second most routes on the Bills.

171
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 5: Half of his or forty one percent, just under half

172
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 5: of his routes came from the slot, which is exactly

173
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 5: what we wanted for Dalton Kincaid and what I like

174
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 5: even more. The first two drives, the Bills kind of

175
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 5: came out and they played their Shenanigans like they did

176
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 5: early last year, where Kincaid wasn't consistently on the field

177
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 5: than Dawson Knox was. And then the Bills went down

178
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 5: two scores and they were like, let's get dal Kin

179
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 5: Kaid and not take him off the field at all,

180
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 5: and the Bills offense were clicking ever since. So I

181
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 5: think much better days are ahead for dalon Kin kid.

182
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 5: I'm not worried at all.

183
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 6: In fact, if the person who hasn't is worried, I'd

184
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 6: be trying to trade for him.

185
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I would. I would take the temperature

186
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: see if maybe you can get him out. I'm not

187
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: at all worried about him. I just was frustrated because

188
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: I had him, and I thought more things were gonna

189
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: happen and they just didn't. But I think it's gonna

190
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: be all right there this one though, Lakwan, we might

191
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: we might need to have a conversation. We might have

192
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: just start a dialogue.

193
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 2: Amari Cooper, Yeah, it was bad.

194
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: The Browns were just bad all around offensively against the Cowboys.

195
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 2: Amari Cooper with two catches for sixteen yards.

196
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 3: Panic or patience, I'm panicking, man. I mean Deshaun Watson

197
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 3: did not look good. And I understand that O line

198
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 3: is missing their two starting tackles, which again, everybody has

199
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 3: injuries on.

200
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 5: An O line.

201
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 3: Hello Rams fan here, but uh, he just did not

202
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 3: look good out there, and Amari Cooper just his body

203
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 3: language just looks like he's over it.

204
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 6: Man.

205
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 3: It's like it's one of those situations, you know, where

206
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 3: we took him in the drafts where we're thinking he

207
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 3: will be that strong wide receiver three for us to

208
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 3: make our room better. But like, if the quarterback position

209
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 3: does not look good this early and the dude only

210
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 3: has played what this is his thirteenth game, now, it's like,

211
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 3: I'm not too sure if I'm here for a slow

212
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 3: walk for Watson to get up to speed, for Amari

213
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 3: Cooper to really be putting enough fantasy points every Sunday

214
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 3: for me.

215
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I'm freaked out about a Mark Baver legitimately

216
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: because the Browns look that bad because Deshaun Watson hasn't

217
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: given us.

218
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 2: He hasn't given us any hope.

219
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 1: Right, if there were games in the past where you're like,

220
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: all right, I see this thing coming together, Like you know,

221
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: there are moments like we haven't gotten any flashes of

222
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: anything out of Deshaun Watson and so like that, you know,

223
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: we'll see how the offensive line comes together with the injuries.

224
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 2: But here is they had all off season.

225
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: To prepare for, you know, having they had all I

226
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: had a lot of time to have the backup offensive lineman,

227
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: and this is the product they put out. I am

228
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: freaked the f Outmark Cooper right now, and I'm like,

229
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: I'm going back and I'm like, I drafted him in

230
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 1: more places than I remember.

231
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 2: I don't love this. I do that I have a

232
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 2: ton of Cooper.

233
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 6: Maybe I'm trying to convince myself. Uh, he had a

234
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 6: lot of opportunities in Week one. Love to see that,

235
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 6: but even more they get the Jags, the Giants, the Raiders,

236
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 6: the Commanders the next.

237
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 5: Moment, like a right, it's not going to be the

238
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 5: Cowboys defense every week.

239
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 2: All right, that's the same line.

240
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 5: That's all I can give you.

241
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: Silver linings and the nine targets. I mean he actually

242
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: led the team in targets, so I mean that part

243
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: is encouraging. But I don't need this to be a

244
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, Atlanta Falcons, like a whole bunch of uncatchable

245
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: target situation.

246
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 2: He did.

247
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 5: He did have one long one go right through the

248
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 5: bread basket. It was a little bit too out in front.

249
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 4: But it's just in chemistry, man, you can't you can't

250
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 4: throw a good ball and then the next four plays.

251
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 1: I just I'm I'm hoping I'm hoping that the schedule

252
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: lightning up will help, but.

253
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 2: I'm really, really really worried. For sure.

254
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: You're gonna take a break and then come back and

255
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: talk about some deep dive waiver wire options plus folks

256
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: that you can probably put back into the free agent pool.

257
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: That's next on the NFL Fantasy Football Show. So on

258
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: Monday we talked about the waiver Wire. You can go

259
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: back and check out that show, or you can go

260
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 1: to NFL dot com slash waiver wire and get a

261
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: rundown on a lot of guys that you can probably

262
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: take some shots at in free agency. This week, we're

263
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: going deep dive though the folks that you know if

264
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: you're playing in deeper leagues, you know those leagues where you're.

265
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 2: Like that guys are already going and murdery.

266
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 1: Well, then we're gonna give you some options for guys

267
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: who probably aren't gone in your league. Laquand who should

268
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: folks be diving a little bit deeper for this week?

269
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 4: So it's a Green Bay Packer running back Emmanuel wilson Man.

270
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 4: He's the back of the Jacob Josh Jacobs right now.

271
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 4: He looked really good. Half of his runs went for

272
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 4: ten plus yards, so he had shown some jews, some

273
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 4: explosiveness and I know Marshan Lloyd is there said to

274
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 4: be the backup, but right now and looking like Emmanuel

275
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 4: Wilson has carved out some type of role for him

276
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 4: to be on the field at times, you know where

277
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 4: Josh Jacobs needs a little breath. I mean Jacobs to me,

278
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,599
Speaker 4: he kind of looked like he was slow running in

279
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 4: mud at times, even though he did have over eighty

280
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 4: yards and he had a healthy five point zero plus

281
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 4: yarch per carry. I just feel as though Emmanuel Wilson

282
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 4: he will be that bang, that thunder that they need

283
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 4: to punch where he might bust one of those runs

284
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 4: off and take it to the house.

285
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think in the first half everybody

286
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: was kind of getting there. Josh Jacobs jokes off because

287
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: he did look slow in the first half. Second half

288
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: things started to kind of come together and he was

289
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 1: much better after halftime.

290
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 2: So we'll see.

291
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 1: But Emmanuel Wilson did look like he had some juice

292
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: and looks like he could carve out a role. But

293
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: also keep in mind Marshaun Lloyd was not available because

294
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,559
Speaker 1: of an injury too, so how that works when Lloyd

295
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: is healthy.

296
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: We don't quite know yet, all right.

297
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: Elsewhere Florida, the Bucks had a good start to their season.

298
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield looked great. You like one of their deeper

299
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,559
Speaker 1: pass catching options.

300
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 5: There, Yeah, Jalen McMillan.

301
00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 6: And I know people might be like, yeah, he caught

302
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 6: a touchdown, but he only had three targets. But what

303
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 6: I care is he did not leave the fields like

304
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 6: the Bucks went heavy three wide receiver set and it

305
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 6: was Evans, Godwin and McMillan consistently as the three that

306
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 6: were out there, and he played two thirds of his

307
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 6: snaps out wide and a third in the slot. And

308
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 6: that was my concern with him coming into the year

309
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 6: was if they want to put Godwin in the slot more,

310
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 6: will there be enough for McMillan.

311
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 5: Will they clearly trust.

312
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 6: Him out wide on a Bucks team that I is

313
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 6: going to throw the ball a good amount this season,

314
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 6: Like next week they play the Lions in Detroit. That

315
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 6: could easily become a high scoring affair as.

316
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 5: The Bucks trying to match points with the Lions offense.

317
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 5: So McMillan not someone that I'm confident enough to.

318
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 6: Start just yet, But I like the talent and I

319
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 6: like the opportunity, and if I'm in a deeper league,

320
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 6: that's kind of what I want to take notice of it.

321
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 1: I mean, Liam Cohen, another Sean mcvaigh disciple, looks like

322
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: he wants to be very aggressive. They said they want

323
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 1: to be explosive through one week. That certainly seemed to

324
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: be the case. So McMillan could have some long term

325
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: value on a lot of fantasy rosters. I keep saying,

326
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: maybe I was a year two early on Alec Pierce,

327
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: so I'm trying to right the wrong here and go

328
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: and adding Pierce. Here's the thing, I think I've plan

329
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,959
Speaker 1: of played Colts receiver roulette because I've drafted some of

330
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: Josh Downs, I've drafted some ad and I Mitchell. Now

331
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get Alec Pierce. One of these has got

332
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: a hit, right, one of these has got hit. But

333
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: what we saw, at least on Sunday, is that when

334
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: the Colts want to take some shots downfield, it appears

335
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: that Pierce is going to be the option of choice.

336
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: I think they did take a couple of shots to Mitchell.

337
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: We'll see what Downs's role is when he's healthy and

338
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: ready to go. But Anthony Richardson is, he's got the

339
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: launch codes and he's not afraid to use him. Alec

340
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: Pierce could have some some really good value. Definitely more

341
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: of a better and best ball guy. But I think

342
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: if you're in a deeper league and looking for ceiling plays,

343
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce is a nice option for a lot of

344
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: fantasy managers there. So if we're adding players, I mean,

345
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: we've got to be dropping players. Lakwan, who should we

346
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: be saying goodbye to this week?

347
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 2: Now?

348
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna rip the band aid off. I'm gonna

349
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 3: be drafting DeAndre Hopkins. I've drafted him late in drafts

350
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 3: and he is dealing with an MCL knee injury right now,

351
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 3: where he's already said he's going to be playing through that,

352
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 3: and he was limited snaps this week last week, so

353
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 3: it's like more so ran seven routes. We might be

354
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 3: looking at a limited DeAndre Hopkins all season long. So

355
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna rip the band aid off now and

356
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 3: grab one of these hot you know, wide receiver waiver

357
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 3: wires to just kind of take the place where I

358
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 3: don't have to deal with the headache, you know, week

359
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 3: to week. I honestly hate doing it. It looks disgusting

360
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 3: to have him on the waiver wire, but kind of

361
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 3: is what it is.

362
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 2: Oh, porn went out from Nuke. Didn't think you'd be

363
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 2: here this soon. I thought maybe it happened this year.

364
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: Didn't think it happened this soon. But here we are, Florida.

365
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: This one also sort of hurts a little bit. I

366
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: mean it's early, so it's not gonna hurt as bad.

367
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 2: Wow, I just saw this. I was not anticipating we'd

368
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 2: be here this soon, but here we are.

369
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, like I said, I think I said on yesterday's show,

370
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 6: I'm waving the white flag when it comes to the

371
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 6: Chargers running back. So I was big on Gus Edwards

372
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 6: and Kamani Videl two swings, two misses because you look

373
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 6: at not just what JK. Dobbins did, but the whole situation.

374
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 5: As a whole. Kamani Videl was a healthy scratch. Then JK.

375
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 6: Dobbins plays sixty percent of the snaps and not even

376
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 6: close production wise, runs away with it over Gus Edwards,

377
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 6: who just looked like the bus looked like it was

378
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 6: stuck in mud man and it couldn't get going. And

379
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 6: this was Dobbin's first game back That's the crazy part

380
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 6: is like, as he gets more acclimated and back further

381
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 6: further from this injury, I think it's very possible that

382
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 6: he could get more and more of a workload. So

383
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 6: to me, this hurts to say, but it's why I

384
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 6: take shots on guys like this, because if they don't

385
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 6: work out early, you know it, and you know you

386
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 6: could throw them back on. And to me, maybe I'm

387
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 6: early in this, but I think the only way Videll

388
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 6: gets active and gets active actually used is if Dobbins

389
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 6: or Edwards gets hurt.

390
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 5: And I I'm not rooting for that. I know it's

391
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 5: very possible with these.

392
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 6: Two, but I'm not gonna hold someone on my bench

393
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,119
Speaker 6: in hopes that down the road they might get hurt.

394
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 6: If they get hurt, I will jump I will jump

395
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 6: back on Bedell. But until we see it, I think

396
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 6: it's time to say this is Dobbin's backfields.

397
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, the healthy scratch part is the part that's disturbing.

398
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: It wasn't like, hey, we're gonna like keep you and

399
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: lets you run special teams or something like that. Like

400
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 1: they were just like, hey man, we just you can

401
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: sit this one out. That's a little bit concerning if

402
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:33,479
Speaker 1: you had a deeper league, maybe hang on to him.

403
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: But I think if you're in a shallower league, then

404
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: he should.

405
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: Be back on the waiver wire for sure.

406
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: For me, it's Cuba Hubbard. I was intrigued by the possibility.

407
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: I like the idea of the Panthers offense in twenty

408
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: twenty four. I do not like the reality of the

409
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: Panthers offense in twenty twenty four. They were awful in

410
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 1: about every way imaginable. Cuba Hubbard was actually the lead

411
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: back in terms of opportunities this past week against the

412
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints, it meant nothing. They could not move

413
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: the ball. He had six carries for fourteen yards. He

414
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: did not have a single target in the game. Bryce

415
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: Young could not do anything in the passing game. The

416
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: Panthers were awful, and it just doesn't look like they've

417
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 1: improved at all. And it looks like it's going to

418
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 1: be the same this year as last year. They're not

419
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 1: going to run the ball well, And to be honest

420
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 1: with you, it makes me a little bit nervous about

421
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: all my shares of Jonathan Brooks. But we will cross

422
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 1: that bridge when we get to it in about a month.

423
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,239
Speaker 1: Or so he hopefully is the life saver, but for

424
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 1: now it's Cuba Hubbard. Thank you for your service. It's

425
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 1: been real. I am moving on, and I suggest that

426
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: a lot of other people move on as well. Oh

427
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: not great at all anyway. So there you go.

428
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 2: That's our Tuesday look at things around the league.

429
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 1: Were back with you on Wednesday as we start to

430
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: really turn the page and look ahead as to what

431
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 1: is upcoming in week two. But in the meantime, that'll

432
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,199
Speaker 1: do it for this edition of the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast,

433
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 1: The Happy, Safe and Healthy, Do good and Live well.

434
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 2: We'll talk to you again tomorrow.

435
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 5: M
