0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 1>are you doing? Buddy? I wish I was the leader

0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:53.040
<v Speaker 1>of the Goon Squad. I lost a big time in

0:01:53.080 --> 0:01:56.880
<v Speaker 1>the championship. Big timer who went undefeated currently took over

0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 1>the uh the title of the leader of the Goons squad.

0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Got a fun show plan for today. I want to

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.720
<v Speaker 1>look at a review of everything that happened this fantasy

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:10.440
<v Speaker 1>football season, the leaders at the quarterback, running back, and

0:02:10.560 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver positions. There's a lot going on today as well.

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>The playoffs are set in the NFL, or at least

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:18.680
<v Speaker 1>the wild card round for now, so we'll go through

0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:22.320
<v Speaker 1>some of that. There's coaching carousel, there's people being fired, ers,

0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:26.440
<v Speaker 1>rumors about, you know, people meeting with potential coaching candidates.

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:28.280
<v Speaker 1>So I do want to get into all that. I

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:32.480
<v Speaker 1>want to congratulate you and your boy Gucci Garoppolo. Yeah,

0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:34.200
<v Speaker 1>and it done last night. What a way to close

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:37.880
<v Speaker 1>out the NFL season final game there Jacob Hollister getting

0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:40.640
<v Speaker 1>tackled at the one inch line. Hey, look, you were

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the first person to back Gucci Garoppolo the way that

0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.799
<v Speaker 1>you did. You were all over the forty niners and

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:47.880
<v Speaker 1>they put it together this year. So congratulations to you

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:50.359
<v Speaker 1>and Gucci, thank you, thank you. I hopefully Gucci wins

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:52.480
<v Speaker 1>a super Bowl, maybe he wins a championship. I mean

0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.240
<v Speaker 1>he's a winner. Let's slow it down a little bit

0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:57.320
<v Speaker 1>here invention. I don't know if the forty Niners are

0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:00.359
<v Speaker 1>ready to win a super Bowl yet, But who's scary

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 1>in the NFCS Not not getting a top seed, not

0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:08.799
<v Speaker 1>getting a bye in the first round. Here, the wild

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 1>card round, I think obviously hurts the New Orleans Saints.

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.959
<v Speaker 1>They don't have um home field advantage throughout the course

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:17.119
<v Speaker 1>of the NFL playoffs. But they're still a really good team.

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Man Drew Brees, Michael Thomas breaking records out here. Defense

0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 1>is playing well also, so uh, there's scary. They're a

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.160
<v Speaker 1>scary team. We will see. Uh. I think the NFC, actually,

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I think the entire playoffs is pretty wide open right now.

0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:33.960
<v Speaker 1>But I mentioned that we were going to talk about

0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:35.840
<v Speaker 1>that wild Card weekend being set up. I do just

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of want to want to run through the schedule

0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>of these games. Venture this was the lack of the century.

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 1>We always know that the Houston Texans played that first

0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 1>game wild Card Weekend four thirty every single year, doesn't

0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 1>matter who they're facing, And of course it is against

0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:53.800
<v Speaker 1>another team that you were touting this season, the Buffalo

0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>bill So that will be your first game on Saturday,

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>the Buffalo Bills traveling to take on the Houston Texans.

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 1>The Tennessee Titans will be the night game, going up

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:05.760
<v Speaker 1>against the New England Patriots. And I'll say this, the

0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Tennessee Titans the way that they are playing right now,

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 1>and I mentioned this last week with Greg. I said

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:12.880
<v Speaker 1>if I were a playoff team, I wouldn't want to

0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 1>see the Tennessee Titans right now. They don't have the

0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:18.479
<v Speaker 1>best defense. They have a bend but don't break defense

0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:20.960
<v Speaker 1>is actually a lot like the New England Patriots have

0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.800
<v Speaker 1>been for years. Patriots defense was a lot better this year,

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:27.200
<v Speaker 1>but the Patriots normally don't have a an elite defense.

0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Ben but don't break defense good against the run, That's

0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:32.640
<v Speaker 1>that's what the Titans are. But with that offense right now,

0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:35.279
<v Speaker 1>Derrick Henry running the way that he is, a J Brown,

0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Tannehill, the Tennessee Titans are gonna be a tough

0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.039
<v Speaker 1>out here against the New England Patriots. And I see

0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:43.640
<v Speaker 1>some money already coming in on the Tennessee Titans because

0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:45.960
<v Speaker 1>that spread has dropped from five and a half to five.

0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 1>Anything interest you there these first two games. So I

0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 1>honestly think this Tennessee New England. Game might be the

0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:57.160
<v Speaker 1>toughest for me to call because they're one of the

0:04:57.200 --> 0:04:58.680
<v Speaker 1>hottest teams, if not the hottest team to come in

0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs Tennessee. Right, they've won one, two, three, four,

0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.600
<v Speaker 1>five out of their last seven. It lost two in

0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:08.039
<v Speaker 1>a row against Houston New Orleans, that big game against

0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:09.840
<v Speaker 1>Houston that could have won the division, but they're still hot.

0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:13.280
<v Speaker 1>Those are tough games, right, Those are tough games. So, uh,

0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:16.440
<v Speaker 1>that spreads tough. But I do like the Bills, and

0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:18.280
<v Speaker 1>like I said, I've been telling the Bills pretty much

0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:20.760
<v Speaker 1>all yeah. I love Josh Allen thought Josh it will

0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:23.000
<v Speaker 1>take a big step up this year, which he did. Uh,

0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>he's still not quite there yet. This team is a

0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:27.840
<v Speaker 1>little young, so it scares me. But at plus three,

0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:30.440
<v Speaker 1>maybe I buy the half of point, make it three

0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:33.880
<v Speaker 1>and a half. I kind of like that, uh to

0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 1>win the game outright, I might put a little money

0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:38.120
<v Speaker 1>on it, because I do think they could win this game.

0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:40.919
<v Speaker 1>You're right, Houston every year, I got this four o'clock

0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:44.000
<v Speaker 1>game on Saturday every single year, every single year, and

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:48.200
<v Speaker 1>they usually lose it. So I think, uh, I think

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:50.280
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo definitely has a shot to beat this team, and

0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.280
<v Speaker 1>I think I think they will. I think I think

0:05:52.320 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 1>it comes down to that that the Buffalo wins this

0:05:53.880 --> 0:06:00.960
<v Speaker 1>game outright, I don't know about closer Chris Venture. Even

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>more money coming in on Tennessee Titans. According to the

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Vandal Sports Book, I saw this open up at plus

0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:07.360
<v Speaker 1>five and a half of Tennessee. Now down to plus

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:09.920
<v Speaker 1>four and a half. So people are hammering the Tennessee

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Titans right now against the New England Patriots. That's what

0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.440
<v Speaker 1>scares me. Everyone's gonna be on the Titans. It kind

0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:18.560
<v Speaker 1>of scares me, right, It's you know, everyone remembers what

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 1>they see last, right, So the last image we have

0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:25.400
<v Speaker 1>is Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Miami Dolphins going into New

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:30.200
<v Speaker 1>England and knocking off the Patriots. The Patriots for a

0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:35.080
<v Speaker 1>seventeen point favorite. They lost the game the Dolphins one. Outright.

0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:39.720
<v Speaker 1>What was the money line on the Dolphins, man, I

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:41.400
<v Speaker 1>should have looked it up at fourhanded. It had to be.

0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:47.839
<v Speaker 1>I look as a seventeen point plus plus nine hundred thousand. Probably. Yeah,

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:53.359
<v Speaker 1>it's crazy though. Sunday, This Sunday, uh the NFC Divisional Round,

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:56.200
<v Speaker 1>the NFC wild Card Round, the Minnesota Vikings at the

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:58.240
<v Speaker 1>New Orleans Saints. That will be your one o'clock game.

0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:02.280
<v Speaker 1>The Seattle Seahawks at your Philadelphia Eagles. That game is

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:05.680
<v Speaker 1>at for forty the spread in those games as of now,

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:07.960
<v Speaker 1>the Saints are laying eight points at home. I like

0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:09.520
<v Speaker 1>the total in that game. I like that game going

0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 1>over forty eight on. The Seahawks are laying one and

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 1>a half points on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles. Again,

0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 1>the Eagles are dealing with a ton of injuries, so uh,

0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:20.360
<v Speaker 1>we'll see who's gonna be able to suit up in

0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:22.800
<v Speaker 1>that game for the Eagles. Seattle too, of course I

0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 1>had a I had a Cowboys playoff tickets, so yeah, great,

0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:30.320
<v Speaker 1>thanks thanks Cowboys. How is it's it's two o'clock right

0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:33.200
<v Speaker 1>now on the East coast? Jason Carrott still has a job.

0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:36.680
<v Speaker 1>What's going on? Well, Kurt said it before, what is

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:40.160
<v Speaker 1>going on? Jones loves his guys. Jones loves guys, gonna

0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:43.600
<v Speaker 1>try to do. I mean, something's gotta happen here. If

0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:46.080
<v Speaker 1>you haven't heard the news, where are you? You live

0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.800
<v Speaker 1>under a rock? Freddy Kitchens is out in Cleveland, Patch

0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Strmer is out for the New York Giants. I know

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:54.320
<v Speaker 1>that you are a Giants fan. We're hearing some rumors

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 1>about Matt Rule, Ron Rivera, Ron Rivera meeting with Washington

0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:01.160
<v Speaker 1>as well, Josh McDaniels. Is that what you want? Do

0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:05.960
<v Speaker 1>you want Josh McDaniels coaching your franchise? I mean, I

0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's better than a lot of what's out

0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:11.720
<v Speaker 1>there right now. This guy's flaky, man, I know, I mean,

0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:14.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I really don't like any of the any

0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:17.440
<v Speaker 1>of the options Rivera. I feel like Rivera could do

0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>a good job, but I don't think you could do

0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:23.920
<v Speaker 1>a good job with Gettleman. There history together in Carolina.

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:27.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I saw a report Dave Gettleman has

0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:30.240
<v Speaker 1>to improve his batting average. That's what That's what the

0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:33.719
<v Speaker 1>Marras are saying. Well, wrong, sport, Buddy good try. I

0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:38.199
<v Speaker 1>guess um the Panthers apparently looking at Mike McCarthy as well.

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:40.199
<v Speaker 1>The Matt Rule thing would hurt because I wanted the

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:42.440
<v Speaker 1>New York Jets to sign Matt Rule. He stayed at

0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Baylor this year, and of course he's done a phenomenal

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:47.280
<v Speaker 1>job at the collegiate level. He hasn't been a coach

0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:49.599
<v Speaker 1>head coach at the NFL level, but I think that

0:08:49.600 --> 0:08:52.360
<v Speaker 1>would be an interesting one of the Browns. This is

0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:54.960
<v Speaker 1>I like this because we could segue this into talking

0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:58.280
<v Speaker 1>about the quarterbacks next segment. The Browns have requested to

0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:01.840
<v Speaker 1>meet with O. C. Eg Roman of the Baltimore Ravens.

0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:04.760
<v Speaker 1>That is interesting for Lamar Jackson heading into next year,

0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:07.439
<v Speaker 1>and I will tell you why after the break. This

0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:58.920
<v Speaker 1>Chris Ventra, I am Frank Stanfeld. No Greg Susman I

0:09:59.000 --> 0:10:02.120
<v Speaker 1>mentioned he is out in Lauderdale, hanging with his mom,

0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:05.240
<v Speaker 1>playing some bingo. I do have a quick story for everybody.

0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:09.720
<v Speaker 1>Greg Sussman called me Sunday morning and tells me you'll

0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:11.839
<v Speaker 1>never believe what happened to me last night. He was

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:17.679
<v Speaker 1>out drinking with Judy, his new wife, Congratulations, and he

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:21.880
<v Speaker 1>says somebody comes up to him, a stranger and says,

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.839
<v Speaker 1>me and my buddies are talking about how old you are,

0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:27.920
<v Speaker 1>and we have an over under on how old we

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:30.640
<v Speaker 1>think that you are. He said this to Greg Sussman,

0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:32.240
<v Speaker 1>So I'm not making this up. He'll tell you the

0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:35.199
<v Speaker 1>story when he comes back. These were just people in

0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 1>a bar for Lauderdale. I don't think you knew them.

0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't paying enough attention. What else is new? He

0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.199
<v Speaker 1>tells me that they set the over I'll ask you first,

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 1>so what do you think? And this has been a

0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.840
<v Speaker 1>this has been a long running joke here on the BFS.

0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:50.719
<v Speaker 1>I say, Greg Sussman looks like an old man. He

0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.319
<v Speaker 1>acts like an old man. What do you think that

0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:55.599
<v Speaker 1>the over under they set for Greg Sussman's age was.

0:10:57.400 --> 0:11:04.400
<v Speaker 1>I would say there the thirty eight thirty seven very close.

0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:06.960
<v Speaker 1>They said thirty six and a half they come up

0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 1>to Greg Shutsman, they say, the over under for your

0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:13.240
<v Speaker 1>age is thirty six and a half, which is crazy

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:14.800
<v Speaker 1>because I mean normally, I say it because of the

0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>way that Greig acts, not personality. They said like, oh, yeah,

0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:21.719
<v Speaker 1>there's your hair looks old. I'm like, I never I

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:23.640
<v Speaker 1>never said that your hair looks old. What does that

0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:27.480
<v Speaker 1>mean his hair? I didn't think his hair looks bad.

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I just thought then the way that Greig carries himself,

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:35.520
<v Speaker 1>you know it's he's he's more mature than the average. Yeah. Yeah,

0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, the guy goes to mind early at night.

0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:40.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah he's not like the closer goes home and plays Fortnite,

0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.440
<v Speaker 1>and you know, Greg Susman hasn't played video games since

0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:45.439
<v Speaker 1>he was five years old. So yeah, he's like an adult.

0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 1>He's just you know, he's a he's a mature gentleman.

0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:49.840
<v Speaker 1>That's that's how that's what we'll call it. So he's

0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:53.000
<v Speaker 1>out playing Bengo, he's cleaning his monocle. He's not here

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:56.199
<v Speaker 1>until Thursday is the next time that Craig will be back,

0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:57.800
<v Speaker 1>and that is the day that I will be gone.

0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:00.880
<v Speaker 1>So we'll be reunited on Friday. Venture I mentioned I

0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:04.400
<v Speaker 1>want to recap this year's top finishers at each position.

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Let's go over the quarterbacks first and foremost. Here, four

0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:10.400
<v Speaker 1>point passing touchdowns half PPR. That's the way that you

0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:12.480
<v Speaker 1>should be playing fantasy football. If you play in a

0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:14.640
<v Speaker 1>six point passing touch on league or a full PPR league,

0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:16.920
<v Speaker 1>you should probably look into change again. I just you

0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:18.839
<v Speaker 1>you don't like full point PPR. I don't like full

0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:21.439
<v Speaker 1>point PPR because if you catch a screen pass for

0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:23.560
<v Speaker 1>zero yards, you should not be awarded a full point

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.760
<v Speaker 1>for that. That is my opinion that you didn't do anything.

0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:28.120
<v Speaker 1>You called the ball. I could catch the ball too,

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 1>you know you didn't. There was no skill involved catch

0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:32.240
<v Speaker 1>a ball for zero yards. You shouldn't get a full

0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:34.520
<v Speaker 1>point for that. So in me, in my opinion, I

0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:38.360
<v Speaker 1>think that over values wide receivers as well. Um so

0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:40.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm not really it's a full PPR like half PPR.

0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:42.880
<v Speaker 1>More in four point passing touchdowns. Here were your top

0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:45.280
<v Speaker 1>twelve quarterbacks. We have a little graphic downstairs. If the

0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:47.319
<v Speaker 1>gentleman downstairs and the pit can throw that up for me.

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Number one Lamar Jackson, of course, the most fantasy points

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:54.920
<v Speaker 1>per game of all time. Number two Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson,

0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:59.439
<v Speaker 1>DeShawn Watson, Jamis Winston. After yesterday, so fitting throws a

0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:03.120
<v Speaker 1>walk off pick six. First player in NFL history with

0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:06.319
<v Speaker 1>thirty touchdowns and thirty interceptions. Guess how much money he

0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:09.480
<v Speaker 1>wants to make this allseason? Thirty million dollars. The jokes

0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.800
<v Speaker 1>on you. Jamis Winston number six, Josh Allen number seven,

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Mahomes eight, Kyler Murray nine, Aaron Rodgers ten, Carson

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Wentz eleven, Matt Ryan number twelve, t F B tom

0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Efan Brady go. According to Fantasy pros ADP, I looked

0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:29.640
<v Speaker 1>us up before the show venture, five of these top

0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:33.240
<v Speaker 1>twelve quarterbacks were drafted out of the top top twelve

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:36.680
<v Speaker 1>a DP before the season. That would include Lamar Jackson,

0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:42.080
<v Speaker 1>jack Prescott, Jamis Winston, Josh Allen, and Kyler Murray. Makes sense.

0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:46.360
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned that Gregor Roman leaving the Baltimore Roavens potentially

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 1>leaving UH. The Cleveland Browns have requested to interview Gregor

0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:53.560
<v Speaker 1>Roman for their head coaching vacancy. Nobody knows if he's

0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:55.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna leave or not. I know. Mark Ingram set out

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:58.559
<v Speaker 1>a tweet saying fail, Well, it hasn't happened, yet mark

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:01.559
<v Speaker 1>Ingram would slow down a little bit. Uh. I have

0:14:01.679 --> 0:14:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Lamar Jackson as a serious regression candidate going into next year,

0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:07.640
<v Speaker 1>like for for obvious reasons, right, you know, you were

0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:09.280
<v Speaker 1>just about to bring up Patrick Mahomes, and I think

0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:11.840
<v Speaker 1>that's a great place to start. Mahomes last year eight

0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:15.920
<v Speaker 1>point six percent touchdown rate, this year five point four percent.

0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:20.200
<v Speaker 1>He regressed by nearly by over three percent. Touchdown rate

0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:22.760
<v Speaker 1>is the rate of how many of your past attempts

0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:26.040
<v Speaker 1>go for touchdowns. In the NFL SO league averages right

0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 1>around four and a half percent. If you're an elite quarterback,

0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:34.680
<v Speaker 1>you can consistently go for over six percent, maybe seven percent.

0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:40.600
<v Speaker 1>Lamar Jackson this year is at nine percent. That is astronomical.

0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.400
<v Speaker 1>The rushing production is likely going to be there, although

0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:45.600
<v Speaker 1>if he loses Greg Roman. Roman has been the o

0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 1>C of Tyrod Taylor Colin Kaepernick in their career, so

0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.600
<v Speaker 1>he knows how to get the most out of mobile quarterbacks.

0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:53.760
<v Speaker 1>There's no I don't want to take anything away from

0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:56.680
<v Speaker 1>Lamar Jackson. If people who are listening watching this thinking, oh,

0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 1>you're just a hater Lamar Jackson, that's not true. I

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.480
<v Speaker 1>drafted Lamar Jackson, you want me money this year, and

0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:03.760
<v Speaker 1>if it weren't for him going in the first or

0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:05.760
<v Speaker 1>second round next year, I would like to draft him again.

0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:07.720
<v Speaker 1>But because of that, I think that he is going

0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.600
<v Speaker 1>to be a prime regression candidate in I will not

0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:13.280
<v Speaker 1>draft him in the first two rounds. What say you,

0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:17.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm with you. I mean, I think it's just obvious.

0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's done so much that how could he

0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:22.240
<v Speaker 1>not regress. We saw happy with Pat Mahomes, who had

0:15:22.440 --> 0:15:24.800
<v Speaker 1>a ridiculous season. We didn't think we'd see a season

0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:27.840
<v Speaker 1>like that again from anybody. We thought, Wow, look at

0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 1>this guy, first first full season playing and he's breaking

0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:34.120
<v Speaker 1>records touchdowns. Now, here's the obvious thing. Here's the thing

0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:37.640
<v Speaker 1>that stands out. This is why you're right. Four hundred

0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>one pass attempts, okay, and he's not gonna pass the

0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:43.120
<v Speaker 1>ball a lot. It's gonna be around four hundred fifty tops.

0:15:43.400 --> 0:15:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Most quarterbacks that throw the ball a lot talking about

0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:48.880
<v Speaker 1>six hundred plus. So he had thirty six touchdowns, that

0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:51.360
<v Speaker 1>was most in the league. That's passing, that's not including rushing.

0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:54.080
<v Speaker 1>That's very hard to do. And you know, touchdowns are

0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:57.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of a fickle thing. So for sure, I just

0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:00.920
<v Speaker 1>see the passing touchdown regression to be heavy. Maybe he

0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:03.040
<v Speaker 1>rushes for a few more because he had seven, he

0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:05.160
<v Speaker 1>bounces out a little bit more. But there could even

0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:07.080
<v Speaker 1>be some regression on the rushing side. No, I mean

0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:10.440
<v Speaker 1>he ran for yardage, that's a lot of He was

0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:14.040
<v Speaker 1>six in the NFL and rushing. He had a freak athlete.

0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 1>The things that Lamar Jackson could do, it is uncanny.

0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:20.400
<v Speaker 1>But you've got to realize that heading into next season,

0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:23.360
<v Speaker 1>people are gonna scheme for him differently. They're gonna play

0:16:23.400 --> 0:16:24.960
<v Speaker 1>more dbs on the field. They're gonna try and get

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:26.960
<v Speaker 1>more speed on the field in order to track him

0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:30.160
<v Speaker 1>down and not let him break off these huge chunk

0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:32.960
<v Speaker 1>rushing plays. They're gonna scheme for Lamar Jackson a little

0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:35.200
<v Speaker 1>bit differently. So everyone looks at what he did this year.

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:37.960
<v Speaker 1>He just had the most Fantasy points by a quarterback

0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:41.400
<v Speaker 1>in NFL history. Venture realized this. He played fifteen games.

0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:44.520
<v Speaker 1>What he did was historical. It was amazing. He just

0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:47.240
<v Speaker 1>averaged the most fantasy points per game in NFL history.

0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Seven point anyone for any anyone. This is in standard leagues.

0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:54.400
<v Speaker 1>In PPR, that would be Marshall Folk in two thousand

0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:57.360
<v Speaker 1>average thirty two point eight five in standard leagues. Lamar

0:16:57.480 --> 0:16:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Jackson just average nearly twenty fantasy points. That was the

0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:02.720
<v Speaker 1>most in NFL history. But he is a prime regression candidate.

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:04.720
<v Speaker 1>You can't just look at what he did this year

0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and say, oh, well, I'm gonna expect that production again

0:17:07.080 --> 0:17:08.840
<v Speaker 1>next year. He's worth of being a top five pick.

0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Greg Susman, I hope that you are out in Florida

0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:13.520
<v Speaker 1>listening right now, because Lamar Jackson is not going to

0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:17.640
<v Speaker 1>repeat what he did this year for many reasons touchdown regression.

0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:19.760
<v Speaker 1>Greg Roman might not be there uh the league. I

0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:21.960
<v Speaker 1>think he's gonna scheme for him differently. I want to

0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:24.600
<v Speaker 1>go to the other side of this, a positive touchdown

0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:27.960
<v Speaker 1>regression candidate and somebody who everyone's gonna be excited about.

0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I can already see the hype getting out of control.

0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:35.359
<v Speaker 1>It's what is it. It's the it's December nine time

0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:41.200
<v Speaker 1>we are drafting August one. The hype on Kyler Murray

0:17:41.320 --> 0:17:43.280
<v Speaker 1>is going to be out of control. Ventra, I'm telling

0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:46.720
<v Speaker 1>you that right now because he just finishes QB eight

0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:49.440
<v Speaker 1>as a rookie. As a rookie, this guy ran for

0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:53.560
<v Speaker 1>over five hundred yards second one quarterbacks with five four

0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:58.000
<v Speaker 1>rushing yards behind Lamar Jackson. And he had a touchdown

0:17:58.119 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 1>rate of three point seven percent in so if we're

0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:05.439
<v Speaker 1>just talking about statistical regression, he's up he league averages

0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:07.600
<v Speaker 1>four and a half. If he had a league average

0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:10.359
<v Speaker 1>touchdown rate, he would have had four more touchdown passes

0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:12.160
<v Speaker 1>this year, and he would have finished a the QB

0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:15.920
<v Speaker 1>six as a rookie. This guy is going to get

0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.399
<v Speaker 1>better now. You can I just play Devil's advocate and

0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:20.760
<v Speaker 1>say teams are gonna start to scheme for Kyler Murray

0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:22.840
<v Speaker 1>and and that's fair. You know he's gonna lose some

0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:25.720
<v Speaker 1>rushing yardage, but I think that the passing yardage and

0:18:25.760 --> 0:18:28.680
<v Speaker 1>the passing touchdowns are going to go up. Second year

0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:32.080
<v Speaker 1>with Cliff Kingsbury. They run high octane offense, and I frankly,

0:18:32.080 --> 0:18:33.840
<v Speaker 1>I think that they're gonna surround him with better weapons.

0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:36.840
<v Speaker 1>I think Isabella is gonna get more involved. Dan Arnold

0:18:37.400 --> 0:18:39.720
<v Speaker 1>has come on late this season here for the Cardinals,

0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Christian Kirk, I think they probably draft another wide receiver,

0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:46.720
<v Speaker 1>signed somebody, or you know, Kim Butler will be back

0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:49.680
<v Speaker 1>for this thing. Will be the running back. Maybe maybe

0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:52.840
<v Speaker 1>if they resign him. I think the sky is gonna

0:18:52.840 --> 0:18:55.160
<v Speaker 1>be the limit for Kyler Murray. The problem ventures everyone

0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:57.680
<v Speaker 1>else is gonna think so he's gonna I think he's

0:18:57.680 --> 0:19:00.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna be againting drafted too high. Way want to draft

0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:02.240
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback. This is the fact of the matter is

0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.720
<v Speaker 1>at quarterback that I know you want these guys, but

0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:07.440
<v Speaker 1>there's just too many good ones. My plan before we

0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:08.480
<v Speaker 1>head to the break, I'll tell you this is what

0:19:08.520 --> 0:19:10.680
<v Speaker 1>you should do next. This is what I did this.

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.280
<v Speaker 1>You draft the cheapest quarterback that runs the ball a lot,

0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:16.520
<v Speaker 1>because they'll give you a nice floor. That was Josh

0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:18.160
<v Speaker 1>and you were all over Josh Owen and what else

0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:20.200
<v Speaker 1>see you? Yeah, So you do something like that, I

0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:21.720
<v Speaker 1>think it'll pay off. I don't think you want to

0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:23.880
<v Speaker 1>pay up to too much. You're right to Kyl Miley

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:28.240
<v Speaker 1>in for a big yaoute. I agree. Everyone's gonna be

0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:30.080
<v Speaker 1>all over Kyler Murray. We'll put a bow on the

0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:32.560

0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to the Fantasy BFFs. I am Frank Stamfle,

0:21:06.080 --> 0:21:10.399
<v Speaker 1>joined by the Closer Chris Ventra No Greg Susman today

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:14.159
<v Speaker 1>or tomorrow. He's out gallop vanting in Florida right now,

0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:16.199
<v Speaker 1>he's in Fort Lauderdale. I mentioned I wanted to put

0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:18.560
<v Speaker 1>a little bow on the quarterback position when we came back,

0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:23.280
<v Speaker 1>and I remember telling everybody my advice on the quarterback

0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:27.200
<v Speaker 1>position coming into draft season was I was targeting, and

0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:28.520
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of people don't like to draft

0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:31.119
<v Speaker 1>two quarterbacks, but I would take one safe quarterback and

0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.600
<v Speaker 1>I would take one upside quarterback. I did this in

0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:36.600
<v Speaker 1>my NFFC league that I shared with my buddy Constantine,

0:21:36.640 --> 0:21:38.840
<v Speaker 1>who was in the chat. Shout out, Shout out to Constantine,

0:21:39.119 --> 0:21:40.639
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to the shout out to the whole chat,

0:21:40.720 --> 0:21:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to the goon squad while we're at it

0:21:42.200 --> 0:21:46.679
<v Speaker 1>as well, and we drafted Tom Brady and Lamar Jackson.

0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:49.639
<v Speaker 1>It worked out perfectly well. Now, of course you have

0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:53.080
<v Speaker 1>to hit on that upside quarterback, but the upside quarterbacks

0:21:53.119 --> 0:21:56.680
<v Speaker 1>coming into this year venture were Dak Prescott, Jameis Winston,

0:21:56.880 --> 0:22:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Lamar Jackson, Kyler Murray. Like the fantasy in the tree

0:22:00.359 --> 0:22:02.800
<v Speaker 1>is very sharp nowadays, and a lot of people kind

0:22:02.840 --> 0:22:07.159
<v Speaker 1>of realized who these upside quarterbacks were the only difference

0:22:07.200 --> 0:22:09.200
<v Speaker 1>that I will make heading into next year. And I've

0:22:09.240 --> 0:22:11.280
<v Speaker 1>said this, I'm gonna do it at the tight end position,

0:22:11.320 --> 0:22:13.639
<v Speaker 1>at the quarterback position. I don't care about wasting my

0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:15.720
<v Speaker 1>bench spots. Everyone says I want to load up on

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:18.159
<v Speaker 1>running backs and wide receivers on my bench. False. What

0:22:18.240 --> 0:22:21.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna do. I'm gonna draft two upside quarterbacks and

0:22:21.560 --> 0:22:24.679
<v Speaker 1>two upside tight ends late in every one of my drafts,

0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:28.040
<v Speaker 1>and I think, based on our knowledge, we'll be able

0:22:28.119 --> 0:22:30.639
<v Speaker 1>to hit on one of each of those between a

0:22:30.680 --> 0:22:32.840
<v Speaker 1>quarterback and a tight end. If you did that this year,

0:22:33.119 --> 0:22:35.119
<v Speaker 1>you would have wound up with a Mark Andrews, with

0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:37.760
<v Speaker 1>a Darren Waller, and the same thing at the quarterback position.

0:22:37.880 --> 0:22:40.640
<v Speaker 1>So that's what I'm gonna be doing heading into next year.

0:22:40.960 --> 0:22:44.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, whether the hype guys are Daniel Jones or

0:22:44.280 --> 0:22:46.719
<v Speaker 1>Joe Burrow or Sam Donald in his third year if

0:22:46.720 --> 0:22:49.640
<v Speaker 1>he could take that next step, or finding another quarterback

0:22:49.720 --> 0:22:52.479
<v Speaker 1>that can make plays with his legs. Whoever it might be, um,

0:22:52.720 --> 0:22:54.760
<v Speaker 1>but that is gonna be the strategy for me heading

0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:59.600
<v Speaker 1>into quarterback position and just say two upside quarterbacks late

0:22:59.640 --> 0:23:01.760
<v Speaker 1>so bigly one that could make plays with his legs.

0:23:01.760 --> 0:23:03.399
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you there, Yeah, just so you have

0:23:03.520 --> 0:23:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that nice floor. I think at this point in time

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:08.840
<v Speaker 1>and fantasy used to maybe in a standard twelve team league.

0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:12.399
<v Speaker 1>Not standard, but I mean like typical twelve team league. Uh,

0:23:12.640 --> 0:23:14.800
<v Speaker 1>you're not drafting a backup quarterback always, like if you

0:23:14.880 --> 0:23:17.920
<v Speaker 1>drift down Rogers. Now I drifting a backup normally, but yeah,

0:23:17.960 --> 0:23:19.320
<v Speaker 1>you would have had to this year if you had

0:23:19.400 --> 0:23:21.399
<v Speaker 1>Rogers because he didn't really get it done as a

0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:23.920
<v Speaker 1>QB one for the most part consistently this year. So

0:23:24.400 --> 0:23:26.760
<v Speaker 1>I think having two quarterbacks is fine, and I think

0:23:26.800 --> 0:23:28.639
<v Speaker 1>you should do that because you could have your upside

0:23:28.680 --> 0:23:31.520
<v Speaker 1>guy with legs, you know, so like a Josh Allen.

0:23:32.200 --> 0:23:34.280
<v Speaker 1>You might be worried. I was worried about drifting Josh

0:23:34.320 --> 0:23:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Allen this year had scared me. You don't want him

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:37.960
<v Speaker 1>as a QB one. So I took Golf. Now that

0:23:38.080 --> 0:23:40.480
<v Speaker 1>didn't work. Josh Allen saved me. So that's why you

0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:43.240
<v Speaker 1>got the two took similar to me, you know, I

0:23:43.320 --> 0:23:45.879
<v Speaker 1>took Brady in and Lamar Jackson. You took Josh Allen

0:23:45.960 --> 0:23:48.160
<v Speaker 1>and and golf and it worked out, right, It worked out.

0:23:48.240 --> 0:23:50.280
<v Speaker 1>So that's why I think instead of just wasting that

0:23:50.400 --> 0:23:52.760
<v Speaker 1>roster spot on the veteran next year for the safe

0:23:52.800 --> 0:23:54.720
<v Speaker 1>guy like a Jared Goff. You thought he was safe,

0:23:55.280 --> 0:23:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Brady ended up being fine. I never used him because

0:23:57.440 --> 0:24:00.240
<v Speaker 1>I had Lamar Jackson. Just take two upside guys. You

0:24:00.280 --> 0:24:02.040
<v Speaker 1>could do that, yeah, and just hope one of them

0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:03.880
<v Speaker 1>hits it. I mean, you give yourself a higher percentage

0:24:03.880 --> 0:24:07.359
<v Speaker 1>of hitting the more upside quarterbacks that you draft. So

0:24:07.760 --> 0:24:09.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm with you. I think Daniel Jones is gonna be

0:24:09.480 --> 0:24:11.359
<v Speaker 1>one that people are gonna be really all over because

0:24:11.400 --> 0:24:13.199
<v Speaker 1>he can make some plays with his legs. He has

0:24:13.240 --> 0:24:16.040
<v Speaker 1>a solid supporting cast. They should improve the offensive line

0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:17.760
<v Speaker 1>in the off season. I we'll see what happens. You

0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:20.080
<v Speaker 1>donna have a bite. Twenty six touchdowns, twelve picks total.

0:24:20.560 --> 0:24:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, yeah, did you really throw? He threw ran

0:24:24.560 --> 0:24:26.760
<v Speaker 1>for two Wow. I mean that is pretty impressive. He

0:24:26.760 --> 0:24:28.440
<v Speaker 1>didn't even play what the first two games of the year.

0:24:28.800 --> 0:24:31.960
<v Speaker 1>What do you do coming in the third, fourth game? Yeah,

0:24:32.080 --> 0:24:33.800
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that is pretty impressive. Man. I think Daniel

0:24:33.840 --> 0:24:35.880
<v Speaker 1>Jones is gonna be one of those players heading into

0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:39.840
<v Speaker 1>next year. There's so many you could wait, there's not

0:24:40.040 --> 0:24:42.680
<v Speaker 1>as many. It's actually kind of scarce, but you get

0:24:42.680 --> 0:24:45.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot of good ones late. Right, you can find

0:24:45.119 --> 0:24:47.879
<v Speaker 1>those guys this year was kled. You're gonna find the

0:24:48.600 --> 0:24:51.520
<v Speaker 1>no offense next year. T J. Hockenson. Those are gonna

0:24:51.560 --> 0:24:53.879
<v Speaker 1>be players that we know. They have pedigree, they have talent,

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:57.359
<v Speaker 1>they got the experience. You're hoping that their role is expanded.

0:24:58.000 --> 0:25:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Excuse me, So between No and and and Hockinson, I

0:25:01.520 --> 0:25:03.280
<v Speaker 1>brought up you know, John hu Smith I think is

0:25:03.320 --> 0:25:05.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna be an interesting name next year. And Thomas. I

0:25:05.560 --> 0:25:07.960
<v Speaker 1>think Tyler Higbie would have been in that mix. But

0:25:08.080 --> 0:25:10.000
<v Speaker 1>he's just been so good. I think he's kind of

0:25:10.720 --> 0:25:13.360
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna be a tough past past that, he's gonna

0:25:13.359 --> 0:25:16.280
<v Speaker 1>be a top ten tight end draft. I mean the

0:25:16.359 --> 0:25:18.919
<v Speaker 1>end of the season a half point, people like you said, crazy,

0:25:20.000 --> 0:25:23.440
<v Speaker 1>five straight games with at least und yards or a touchdown. Yesterday,

0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, he didn't get to a hundred yards,

0:25:25.320 --> 0:25:28.040
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter. He had eight yards and a touchdown. The

0:25:28.160 --> 0:25:30.520
<v Speaker 1>monster insane. So I think Tyler would have been in

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:33.560
<v Speaker 1>that group, but he's he's done a lot for himself,

0:25:33.640 --> 0:25:36.560
<v Speaker 1>and because of that, he's gonna be drafted as a

0:25:36.640 --> 0:25:40.240
<v Speaker 1>top ten, maybe even a top eight tight end. I

0:25:40.280 --> 0:25:43.320
<v Speaker 1>think the strategy with tight end is a little similar

0:25:43.359 --> 0:25:44.919
<v Speaker 1>to wide receiver. But the thing is you have much

0:25:45.000 --> 0:25:47.480
<v Speaker 1>less guys to choose from, so you want to go

0:25:47.640 --> 0:25:49.080
<v Speaker 1>for a tight end that I think gets a lot

0:25:49.200 --> 0:25:51.320
<v Speaker 1>of targets in the system that they're in, like Waller.

0:25:51.760 --> 0:25:54.040
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people predicted rightly that Waller would be

0:25:54.040 --> 0:25:56.600
<v Speaker 1>a big hit because tight end. Yeah, the year before

0:25:56.640 --> 0:26:00.520
<v Speaker 1>it was Jared Cook Exactly, targets are king. I think

0:26:00.560 --> 0:26:02.639
<v Speaker 1>with tight end, you know you get with any position,

0:26:02.760 --> 0:26:04.840
<v Speaker 1>with any pass catching position or any targets are king.

0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:07.119
<v Speaker 1>But it's harder to what wide receivers. Sometimes it's hard

0:26:07.119 --> 0:26:08.760
<v Speaker 1>to find who's gonna get a lot of targets who's

0:26:08.800 --> 0:26:11.080
<v Speaker 1>not at tight end. If you know he's a big

0:26:11.119 --> 0:26:13.080
<v Speaker 1>party system or if you know the receivers aren't great

0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:15.000
<v Speaker 1>around him, you know he's gonna get a lot of targets,

0:26:15.000 --> 0:26:17.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot of receptions and a half point PPR PPRF format.

0:26:17.400 --> 0:26:19.439
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna get consistent points. I give you a hot

0:26:19.520 --> 0:26:21.879
<v Speaker 1>take right now at the tight end position, I know

0:26:22.119 --> 0:26:24.520
<v Speaker 1>the system you should be avoiding at all costs. You

0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:29.440
<v Speaker 1>ready for this Bruce Arian system? He killed me all yeah,

0:26:31.119 --> 0:26:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Howard Man, I mean everybody else was on it except me.

0:26:34.880 --> 0:26:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Well you're doing Frank god I. Arians doesn't use the

0:26:38.600 --> 0:26:40.240
<v Speaker 1>tight end, and I still took O. J. Howard to

0:26:40.880 --> 0:26:43.720
<v Speaker 1>So talents. Don't draft O J. Howard, don't draft Camera Breake,

0:26:43.800 --> 0:26:45.680
<v Speaker 1>do not draft a tight end of Bruce Arian system.

0:26:46.960 --> 0:26:49.880
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting about how you know. I still think Howard

0:26:50.359 --> 0:26:52.240
<v Speaker 1>is really good. I still think he's one of the

0:26:52.320 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 1>most talented guys. Everything went wrong for him though, because

0:26:55.800 --> 0:26:58.680
<v Speaker 1>he struggled earlier on in the season, and then he

0:26:58.840 --> 0:27:02.040
<v Speaker 1>was in Bruce arians dog house. He wasn't playing. Cameron

0:27:02.080 --> 0:27:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Braid started eating into his playing time. They started using O. J.

0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Howard Moore as a blocker. Again, the targets weren't there.

0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:12.200
<v Speaker 1>Chris Godwin broke out, Mike Evans was amazing at the

0:27:12.280 --> 0:27:14.080
<v Speaker 1>end of the season, Brashad Perriman broke out, and on

0:27:14.200 --> 0:27:16.080
<v Speaker 1>top of all of that, Bruce Arians doesn't like to

0:27:16.160 --> 0:27:18.920
<v Speaker 1>use tight ends, so it was just a recipe for designs.

0:27:19.840 --> 0:27:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Thing went wrong for O. J. How and Howard move.

0:27:22.440 --> 0:27:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I heard I'm here to pu up his contract situation,

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:26.719
<v Speaker 1>but I believe he's still under contract. I'm here rumblings

0:27:26.760 --> 0:27:29.000
<v Speaker 1>that he might get traded to New England. Well, that's

0:27:29.040 --> 0:27:31.080
<v Speaker 1>what people were talking about at the deadline, and would

0:27:31.080 --> 0:27:33.080
<v Speaker 1>be Tampa Bay shot everything down. They're like, no, we're

0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>not We're not doing moving o J. Howard, which I understand.

0:27:37.200 --> 0:27:39.480
<v Speaker 1>They used a top I believe, top ten pick, top

0:27:39.520 --> 0:27:42.000
<v Speaker 1>fifteen pick onward. It was a first round pick on J. Howard.

0:27:42.119 --> 0:27:44.760
<v Speaker 1>The Tampa Bay Bucks invested a lot of draft capital

0:27:44.800 --> 0:27:46.959
<v Speaker 1>in O. J. How so they shouldn't give up on him.

0:27:47.080 --> 0:27:50.199
<v Speaker 1>But at the same time, you gotta use the guy, right,

0:27:50.280 --> 0:27:52.320
<v Speaker 1>so trade him for some stock, get some stock back

0:27:52.400 --> 0:27:54.119
<v Speaker 1>for him. And what are they gonna get from though

0:27:54.359 --> 0:27:57.040
<v Speaker 1>you gotta second round pick. What would they really though?

0:27:57.640 --> 0:28:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Maybe failed tight end prospects so far not failed. Yeah,

0:28:00.680 --> 0:28:02.840
<v Speaker 1>he's still young, and yeah he was. He was really

0:28:02.880 --> 0:28:05.119
<v Speaker 1>good last year. That's why you know, everyone thought he

0:28:05.160 --> 0:28:08.080
<v Speaker 1>was gonna break Bruce. He is under contract through through,

0:28:10.720 --> 0:28:14.879
<v Speaker 1>so it was under free. Please somebody comes SA If

0:28:14.920 --> 0:28:18.000
<v Speaker 1>New England gets him, I say, he goes into top

0:28:18.240 --> 0:28:22.800
<v Speaker 1>eight tight end territory. Even more than that, yeah, maybe

0:28:22.800 --> 0:28:24.960
<v Speaker 1>even higher. I mean, look with New England. They're gonna

0:28:24.960 --> 0:28:27.200
<v Speaker 1>have decisions to make too. I mean, we say this

0:28:27.359 --> 0:28:31.000
<v Speaker 1>every year, but it is becoming a question as to

0:28:31.040 --> 0:28:32.560
<v Speaker 1>whether or not Tom Brady is gonna be back with

0:28:32.640 --> 0:28:35.240
<v Speaker 1>this team. It really is. I don't know that he's

0:28:35.280 --> 0:28:38.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna be back, so interesting, we'll see what happens. Let's

0:28:38.320 --> 0:28:39.920
<v Speaker 1>throve over to the runn back position. We'll kind of

0:28:39.960 --> 0:28:41.800
<v Speaker 1>preview this before we hit the break here and just

0:28:41.920 --> 0:28:44.720
<v Speaker 1>let you know the top twelve finishers in half PPR

0:28:45.040 --> 0:28:48.520
<v Speaker 1>in the fantasy football season. Of course, Christian McCaffrey was

0:28:48.640 --> 0:28:51.959
<v Speaker 1>number one, Completely ridiculous. How about this venture. He had

0:28:52.000 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>a hundred and twenty two point nine more fantasy points

0:28:55.680 --> 0:28:57.840
<v Speaker 1>than the second running back that was closest to him,

0:28:57.840 --> 0:29:02.000
<v Speaker 1>which Jones. Aaron Jones finished is the RB two. CMC

0:29:02.280 --> 0:29:04.880
<v Speaker 1>had a hundred and twenty two point nine more points

0:29:04.920 --> 0:29:08.560
<v Speaker 1>than him, and half PPR think about this. Duke Johnson

0:29:09.280 --> 0:29:11.600
<v Speaker 1>finished with a hundred and thirty two fantasy points himself.

0:29:12.120 --> 0:29:16.000
<v Speaker 1>Christian McCaffrey was an RB one and a flex running

0:29:16.040 --> 0:29:20.240
<v Speaker 1>back combined in terms of his fantasy output. It's just

0:29:20.400 --> 0:29:23.760
<v Speaker 1>completely ridiculous. I understand that from year to year it's

0:29:23.800 --> 0:29:26.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of hard to repeat being the number one overall

0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:28.719
<v Speaker 1>player in fantasy football or at the running back position.

0:29:28.800 --> 0:29:31.240
<v Speaker 1>But he's done it two years in rows. I can't

0:29:31.280 --> 0:29:33.959
<v Speaker 1>see how you can go anybody go with anybody outside

0:29:33.960 --> 0:29:37.440
<v Speaker 1>of Christian McCaffrey barring some kind of like crazy offseason

0:29:37.800 --> 0:29:40.800
<v Speaker 1>surgery or injury. When it comes to McCaffrey, Your RB

0:29:40.920 --> 0:29:44.840
<v Speaker 1>two I referenced him, Aaron Jones, then Derrick Henry Ezekiel.

0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Elliott hasn't finished below RB five in any season he

0:29:48.600 --> 0:29:52.040
<v Speaker 1>has been in the league seventeen. I'll use fantasy points

0:29:52.080 --> 0:29:54.440
<v Speaker 1>per game because he only played ten games due to suspension.

0:29:54.640 --> 0:29:57.959
<v Speaker 1>He finishes RB three in Fantasy points per game. Uh

0:29:58.040 --> 0:30:02.000
<v Speaker 1>in tween here, he's so safe. Your number five running

0:30:02.040 --> 0:30:06.000
<v Speaker 1>back Dalvin Cook, then Austin Ekeler, Nick Chub, mark Ingram

0:30:06.240 --> 0:30:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Leonard four Nette. I was wrong about four net for sure,

0:30:08.960 --> 0:30:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Sae Kwon Barkley, Chris Carson, and Alvin Kamara. How about this.

0:30:12.720 --> 0:30:16.600
<v Speaker 1>Alvin Kamara has exactly eighty one receptions in each season

0:30:16.640 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 1>he's been in the NFL, exactly eighty one wild that's safe.

0:30:23.240 --> 0:30:27.200
<v Speaker 1>That's safe. That that's consistency. Right there, You're gonna be

0:30:27.240 --> 0:30:29.520
<v Speaker 1>able to get Kamara at a discount next year, late

0:30:29.600 --> 0:30:32.720
<v Speaker 1>first round pick, mid to late first round picks. And

0:30:33.120 --> 0:30:35.600
<v Speaker 1>if you look at his yardage, the only thing that

0:30:35.720 --> 0:30:38.680
<v Speaker 1>came back was his touchdowns, and that's a fickle thing.

0:30:38.880 --> 0:30:41.240
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to predict us. His first two seasons, he

0:30:41.320 --> 0:30:43.920
<v Speaker 1>had at least thirteen total touchdowns. We knew at some

0:30:43.960 --> 0:30:46.200
<v Speaker 1>point that that was gonna come down. But this year,

0:30:46.280 --> 0:30:49.360
<v Speaker 1>for example, I'll pull this up for you, it was

0:30:49.960 --> 0:30:53.040
<v Speaker 1>he had what do he had like six seven touchdowns total?

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Had six. He finished with five rushing and one receiving.

0:30:56.880 --> 0:31:00.520
<v Speaker 1>So he had six touchdowns, which still isn't horrible, but

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:02.760
<v Speaker 1>he had a three in one game in this offense,

0:31:03.400 --> 0:31:05.360
<v Speaker 1>he should have had more, but he had three in

0:31:05.400 --> 0:31:06.880
<v Speaker 1>one game also. And if you remember, there was a

0:31:06.960 --> 0:31:09.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of weeks where he had touchdowns called back. I

0:31:09.280 --> 0:31:11.840
<v Speaker 1>remember the Tampa Bay came comes to mind. Over this

0:31:11.920 --> 0:31:13.920
<v Speaker 1>final month he had he had two or three touchdowns

0:31:13.960 --> 0:31:16.280
<v Speaker 1>called back due to penalty. So if he finished the

0:31:16.320 --> 0:31:20.120
<v Speaker 1>season with nine total touchdowns, we're talking about this completely different.

0:31:20.240 --> 0:31:23.040
<v Speaker 1>He's a top six seven running back once again. So

0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:25.800
<v Speaker 1>the touchdowns, yes, they're hard to predict. I mean, that's

0:31:25.800 --> 0:31:28.040
<v Speaker 1>why we say it every single year. Davantae Adams. Each

0:31:28.080 --> 0:31:30.360
<v Speaker 1>of the past two three seasons was up over double

0:31:30.440 --> 0:31:33.360
<v Speaker 1>digit touchdowns. This year he didn't score week eleven or

0:31:33.360 --> 0:31:36.520
<v Speaker 1>week twelve, so you know, touchdowns are really hard to predict.

0:31:36.560 --> 0:31:38.800
<v Speaker 1>And Camar just to say how efficient he still is?

0:31:38.880 --> 0:31:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Four point seven yards per carry on the ground on

0:31:41.200 --> 0:31:43.440
<v Speaker 1>a hundred seventy one touches. He should get more touches,

0:31:43.480 --> 0:31:45.360
<v Speaker 1>I think too, but the eighty one catches and five

0:31:45.880 --> 0:31:48.000
<v Speaker 1>three yards, so he's doing everything else great. I will

0:31:48.040 --> 0:31:49.800
<v Speaker 1>say this, does it worry you that his yard per

0:31:49.880 --> 0:31:51.640
<v Speaker 1>touch has gone down every season he's been in the

0:31:51.760 --> 0:31:54.640
<v Speaker 1>NFL seven point seven as a rookie, five point eight

0:31:54.880 --> 0:31:57.640
<v Speaker 1>in year two, five point three in year three. I'm

0:31:57.640 --> 0:32:00.240
<v Speaker 1>not worried. You're not worried about it. He was badly

0:32:00.240 --> 0:32:02.720
<v Speaker 1>injury as well. Let's talk more about the running back position.

0:32:03.120 --> 0:32:05.680
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we'll get to the wide receivers as well. You're

0:32:05.720 --> 0:32:08.520
<v Speaker 1>watching the Fantasy BFS live on the Sportscred TV network.

0:32:08.720 --> 0:32:11.120
<v Speaker 1>That's Chris. I am Frank will be back right after this.

0:32:14.200 --> 0:32:16.920
<v Speaker 1>I want to be the next Daily Fantasy Millionaire. Dunk

<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to the Fantasy best Friends Forever, that is

0:32:51.760 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 1>the Closer. Chris Ventra, host of The Fantasy Football Frenzy.

0:32:55.160 --> 0:32:58.080
<v Speaker 1>I am Frank Stanfeld. You're watching the Fantasy bfs right

0:32:58.120 --> 0:33:01.200
<v Speaker 1>here on the Sports Cred TV network. Get on the grid.

0:33:01.960 --> 0:33:04.280
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to uh kind of talk about some more

0:33:04.320 --> 0:33:07.280
<v Speaker 1>of these running backs here the top twelve finishers. We

0:33:07.360 --> 0:33:11.520
<v Speaker 1>went over it before the break and I mentioned how

0:33:11.600 --> 0:33:15.120
<v Speaker 1>great Christian McCaffrey was this year, mentioned Ezekiel Elliott how

0:33:15.120 --> 0:33:17.960
<v Speaker 1>consistent he has been in his NFL career so far.

0:33:18.360 --> 0:33:20.560
<v Speaker 1>Alvin Kamara has been extremely consistent as well. I think

0:33:20.600 --> 0:33:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you'll get him at a bit of a discount. I

0:33:22.440 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't want to mention this and get your thoughts on

0:33:24.080 --> 0:33:27.320
<v Speaker 1>it as well. Venture four running backs inside the top

0:33:27.400 --> 0:33:31.560
<v Speaker 1>twelve this year had under forty receptions and half half

0:33:31.640 --> 0:33:37.000
<v Speaker 1>PPR Derrick Henry, Mark Ingram, Nick Chubb, and Chris Carson.

0:33:37.560 --> 0:33:39.920
<v Speaker 1>This is the most since two thousand and sixteen, the

0:33:40.000 --> 0:33:42.800
<v Speaker 1>most running backs UH to finish inside the top twelve

0:33:43.120 --> 0:33:46.960
<v Speaker 1>with under forty receptions. Now, these are guys that dominate

0:33:47.040 --> 0:33:50.320
<v Speaker 1>carries for their team. They come from great rushing offenses. UH,

0:33:50.480 --> 0:33:52.560
<v Speaker 1>they dominate red zone work as well, so they score

0:33:52.600 --> 0:33:54.959
<v Speaker 1>a lot of touchdowns. So they were safe in that regard.

0:33:55.440 --> 0:33:58.680
<v Speaker 1>And obviously that's how you identify the running backs that

0:33:58.760 --> 0:34:00.880
<v Speaker 1>you can draft who don't catch passes. It's, you know,

0:34:01.040 --> 0:34:02.920
<v Speaker 1>it's guys that have to get it done in touch

0:34:02.960 --> 0:34:05.960
<v Speaker 1>in a touchdown department and and with the big chunk plays.

0:34:06.160 --> 0:34:08.800
<v Speaker 1>And that's exactly what Derrick, Henry, Ingram, Chub, and Carson

0:34:09.040 --> 0:34:12.320
<v Speaker 1>were all able to do. What is your biggest takeaway

0:34:12.400 --> 0:34:16.320
<v Speaker 1>from that heading into the season, Because I feel like

0:34:16.520 --> 0:34:20.040
<v Speaker 1>more often than not, fantasy analysts and it's the entire

0:34:20.120 --> 0:34:23.920
<v Speaker 1>industry people kind of shy away from players like this

0:34:24.280 --> 0:34:27.200
<v Speaker 1>because they don't catch passes. Everyone plays in either half

0:34:27.280 --> 0:34:30.560
<v Speaker 1>PPR or full PPR nowadays. There's a lesson to be

0:34:30.640 --> 0:34:32.759
<v Speaker 1>learned from this. E Y spoke a lot about this

0:34:32.880 --> 0:34:35.359
<v Speaker 1>throughout the course of the season. He said, fantasy points

0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:37.239
<v Speaker 1>are fantasy points. I don't care how you give them

0:34:37.280 --> 0:34:40.440
<v Speaker 1>to me. Yeah, touchdowns might be a little flukey, But

0:34:41.239 --> 0:34:43.520
<v Speaker 1>when when you're the only running back on your team

0:34:43.600 --> 0:34:47.160
<v Speaker 1>that's getting that red zone work, is it really that flukey?

0:34:48.040 --> 0:34:51.320
<v Speaker 1>I would say with running backs like this, it wasn't flukey.

0:34:52.000 --> 0:34:54.400
<v Speaker 1>So what's your biggest takeaway from this? So? Yeah, I

0:34:54.520 --> 0:34:58.359
<v Speaker 1>think the thing is you have to understand is as

0:34:58.400 --> 0:35:00.200
<v Speaker 1>we think as analysts, with thinking in a half point

0:35:00.239 --> 0:35:02.719
<v Speaker 1>in a full point PPR, you're looking at the running backs.

0:35:02.760 --> 0:35:05.280
<v Speaker 1>If they could do both run and catch the passes,

0:35:05.440 --> 0:35:08.040
<v Speaker 1>they give you a safer floor for consistency throughout the season.

0:35:08.120 --> 0:35:10.440
<v Speaker 1>That's the idea. The problem is you could have a

0:35:10.480 --> 0:35:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Derrick Henry who's consistent without doing that. Consistency can come

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:16.279
<v Speaker 1>from a running back who doesn't catch passes. And that

0:35:16.400 --> 0:35:18.880
<v Speaker 1>was my big mistake this year. I was touting all

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:21.680
<v Speaker 1>guys that catch passes and not guys that don't because

0:35:21.680 --> 0:35:23.200
<v Speaker 1>the first year I hopped off Henry because I do

0:35:23.280 --> 0:35:26.200
<v Speaker 1>like Henry because he's a freak, but word means he

0:35:26.239 --> 0:35:29.279
<v Speaker 1>doesn't catch passing. Michelle Michelle worried because he doesn't catch passes. Now,

0:35:29.480 --> 0:35:31.640
<v Speaker 1>they do have these low flaws at times, but if

0:35:31.680 --> 0:35:34.279
<v Speaker 1>they're in a system, the right system, you know, they

0:35:34.400 --> 0:35:36.239
<v Speaker 1>run the ball a lot. You're the RB one like

0:35:36.320 --> 0:35:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Derrick Henry is. You know, I get in touches stolen

0:35:38.920 --> 0:35:41.960
<v Speaker 1>from you. All that counts. So a lot of it

0:35:42.040 --> 0:35:45.440
<v Speaker 1>is opportunity and where you are. But it taught me

0:35:45.520 --> 0:35:49.120
<v Speaker 1>the lesson that I can't just stay away from guys

0:35:49.160 --> 0:35:51.600
<v Speaker 1>that don't catch passes when they're the main running back

0:35:51.640 --> 0:35:54.000
<v Speaker 1>on their team and they're a good quality running back,

0:35:54.200 --> 0:35:56.719
<v Speaker 1>a true old school running runner, you know what I mean,

0:35:56.800 --> 0:35:59.520
<v Speaker 1>without catching passes. I was buying into that too much

0:35:59.600 --> 0:36:01.359
<v Speaker 1>this year, and I think for the past few years

0:36:01.440 --> 0:36:03.880
<v Speaker 1>I was. So I learned something this year, and I

0:36:03.960 --> 0:36:06.080
<v Speaker 1>will buy back into Derrick Henry next yet and guys

0:36:06.080 --> 0:36:08.399
<v Speaker 1>like Nick Chubb. As long as there's not people taking

0:36:08.400 --> 0:36:10.600
<v Speaker 1>away too many touches from them, I think those guys

0:36:10.640 --> 0:36:12.399
<v Speaker 1>will still be at the top of the game. Yeah,

0:36:12.440 --> 0:36:14.759
<v Speaker 1>that's the biggest takeaway. And I agree with you right

0:36:14.840 --> 0:36:17.520
<v Speaker 1>like you could identify We easily could have identified this

0:36:17.640 --> 0:36:20.439
<v Speaker 1>before the season. We didn't. We knew that Dean Lewis

0:36:20.480 --> 0:36:22.160
<v Speaker 1>was not gonna have a big role in this Titans offense.

0:36:22.280 --> 0:36:24.880
<v Speaker 1>While they were talking about all preseason was how this

0:36:24.960 --> 0:36:26.879
<v Speaker 1>team was going to run through. The offense was gonna

0:36:26.920 --> 0:36:29.320
<v Speaker 1>run through Derrick Henry. He was gonna be the workhorse

0:36:29.640 --> 0:36:31.360
<v Speaker 1>you know people were talking about. But you're having this

0:36:31.520 --> 0:36:33.560
<v Speaker 1>monster season. I'll tell you the only reason why I

0:36:33.640 --> 0:36:35.720
<v Speaker 1>got off Derrick Henry was because he had an injury

0:36:35.840 --> 0:36:38.680
<v Speaker 1>during the during training game during preseason. I believe you

0:36:38.719 --> 0:36:42.279
<v Speaker 1>had a hamstring injury. Normally, when you see something like that,

0:36:42.360 --> 0:36:44.359
<v Speaker 1>when you see it was either hamstring or calf, right,

0:36:44.440 --> 0:36:47.440
<v Speaker 1>But either way, whenever you see a soft tissue injury

0:36:47.480 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 1>like that before the season even starts for a running back,

0:36:50.719 --> 0:36:53.160
<v Speaker 1>nine times out of ten, that is something that lingers

0:36:53.280 --> 0:36:56.200
<v Speaker 1>all season long. So that's why I was off Derrick Henry.

0:36:56.280 --> 0:36:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I knew that he was gonna be the

0:36:58.040 --> 0:37:00.200
<v Speaker 1>guy for his team. I just I got off of

0:37:00.280 --> 0:37:03.279
<v Speaker 1>him for a different reason, ultimately the injury being there.

0:37:03.320 --> 0:37:04.920
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, look at the running backs that we

0:37:04.960 --> 0:37:06.560
<v Speaker 1>did like this year because we thought that they were

0:37:06.560 --> 0:37:10.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna catch passes, David Johnson, James conn Or Levi on

0:37:11.040 --> 0:37:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Bell right, we also, oh, these guys are gonna catch

0:37:13.280 --> 0:37:15.720
<v Speaker 1>a ton of passes this year for their respective teams,

0:37:16.560 --> 0:37:20.160
<v Speaker 1>and they didn't show up, and they didn't show up Ultimately, Soler,

0:37:20.280 --> 0:37:22.120
<v Speaker 1>did I think that you will be able to identify

0:37:22.200 --> 0:37:25.800
<v Speaker 1>those players, like, for example, Josh Jacobs next year, I

0:37:25.840 --> 0:37:28.560
<v Speaker 1>think he's capable of catching passes. John Gruden and the

0:37:28.600 --> 0:37:31.840
<v Speaker 1>Oakland Raiders offense hasn't used him that way yet. But

0:37:32.000 --> 0:37:35.640
<v Speaker 1>even if he catches thirty to forty passes next year,

0:37:36.000 --> 0:37:38.319
<v Speaker 1>he is someone that is going to consistently see close

0:37:38.360 --> 0:37:41.920
<v Speaker 1>to twenty touches and he's gonna dominate red zone usage

0:37:42.280 --> 0:37:44.560
<v Speaker 1>for the Oakland Raiders. Like There's no other running back

0:37:44.600 --> 0:37:46.520
<v Speaker 1>on that team that I'm scared of. I believe DeAndre

0:37:46.600 --> 0:37:49.359
<v Speaker 1>Washington's a free agent too, and they shouldn't cut into

0:37:49.440 --> 0:37:51.680
<v Speaker 1>his time anyway, because he had a fantastic season. I

0:37:51.719 --> 0:37:54.200
<v Speaker 1>mean full point eight yards per carry. Uh. He had

0:37:54.960 --> 0:37:58.080
<v Speaker 1>fifty total yadds on the ground, beautiful. Uh. The only

0:37:58.200 --> 0:38:01.319
<v Speaker 1>thing he lacked in was yet even touchdowns. You want

0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:03.520
<v Speaker 1>to see a little more. But like we say, next year,

0:38:03.520 --> 0:38:06.120
<v Speaker 1>you could have twelve. Would you be surprised? No, you're not,

0:38:06.880 --> 0:38:08.920
<v Speaker 1>because it just so happened. He had seven this year,

0:38:09.200 --> 0:38:11.640
<v Speaker 1>but twenty seven targets that's where you want to see

0:38:11.680 --> 0:38:13.840
<v Speaker 1>the improvement. You want to see closer to fifty to

0:38:13.920 --> 0:38:16.799
<v Speaker 1>sixty targets. I'm hoping forty catches. The guy can catch

0:38:16.880 --> 0:38:19.320
<v Speaker 1>the ball. He showed it. You already talking. You're already

0:38:19.320 --> 0:38:21.759
<v Speaker 1>doing the reception thing again. Venture Look, you're already doing

0:38:21.800 --> 0:38:23.799
<v Speaker 1>it again. See you falling into the same trap. You're

0:38:23.800 --> 0:38:26.840
<v Speaker 1>falling into the same trap once again. He's the RB one. So,

0:38:26.960 --> 0:38:29.120
<v Speaker 1>like you said, even if he ends up with thirty catches,

0:38:29.160 --> 0:38:31.800
<v Speaker 1>thirty five catches, I'm happy with Josh Jacobs to me

0:38:32.120 --> 0:38:34.640
<v Speaker 1>as a solid RB two that I'll draft. If he

0:38:34.719 --> 0:38:39.759
<v Speaker 1>does that, he's gonna he's gonna go high. I don't know.

0:38:39.960 --> 0:38:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Because the talent is there, we've seen it. And the

0:38:41.719 --> 0:38:44.000
<v Speaker 1>guy who's playing with a fractured shoulder too. So he's

0:38:44.040 --> 0:38:46.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna be an RB one. We talked. I think he's

0:38:46.120 --> 0:38:48.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a low nd RB one drafted. He's gonna

0:38:48.520 --> 0:38:51.040
<v Speaker 1>be a solid second round pick. Believe that. Would you

0:38:51.200 --> 0:38:53.399
<v Speaker 1>buy into him as your r B one, your first

0:38:53.480 --> 0:38:57.400
<v Speaker 1>drafted running back, Well, it'll always depend on who you

0:38:57.520 --> 0:38:59.440
<v Speaker 1>take in the first round. But yeah, if I got

0:38:59.520 --> 0:39:02.680
<v Speaker 1>like a Dre Hopkins in round one, if you start

0:39:02.760 --> 0:39:06.719
<v Speaker 1>de Hop Josh Jacobs, that's pretty good, or even like, look,

0:39:06.800 --> 0:39:08.560
<v Speaker 1>it's early ADP. We don't know where these guys are

0:39:08.560 --> 0:39:10.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna go. But if Josh Jacobs slips to the end

0:39:10.480 --> 0:39:12.200
<v Speaker 1>of the second round, if you could start your draft,

0:39:12.239 --> 0:39:15.839
<v Speaker 1>Michael Thomas, Josh Jacobs, that's amazing. That is beautiful. Yeah,

0:39:15.840 --> 0:39:18.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean that is great. But why do I feel

0:39:18.120 --> 0:39:20.799
<v Speaker 1>like kind of uncomfortable as Josh Jacob says my RB one.

0:39:21.080 --> 0:39:23.359
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's just me and I shouldn't feel it. Might

0:39:23.360 --> 0:39:25.520
<v Speaker 1>be the recessions thing again, man, maybe telling you like

0:39:25.680 --> 0:39:28.000
<v Speaker 1>it might just go something. It's so ingrained. It's your brain,

0:39:28.239 --> 0:39:29.960
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of people think that way because you're right.

0:39:30.440 --> 0:39:32.520
<v Speaker 1>When you catch passes as a running back, it does

0:39:32.640 --> 0:39:35.560
<v Speaker 1>raise your floor, right because you know, even if you

0:39:35.680 --> 0:39:38.239
<v Speaker 1>don't do a lot with those passes, if you say

0:39:38.280 --> 0:39:40.960
<v Speaker 1>you run it inefficiently one day, or you know you

0:39:41.000 --> 0:39:42.560
<v Speaker 1>don't have high yards per carry, you don't get a

0:39:42.560 --> 0:39:44.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of yardage on the ground, or you don't score

0:39:44.160 --> 0:39:46.759
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown. At least if you catch four or five

0:39:46.800 --> 0:39:50.520
<v Speaker 1>passes for thirty forty y helps your floor. I mean,

0:39:50.560 --> 0:39:52.360
<v Speaker 1>come on here, what you're saying, Mar is a great example.

0:39:52.400 --> 0:39:56.359
<v Speaker 1>This year, regress severely and touchdowns right, uh, and didn't

0:39:56.400 --> 0:39:59.120
<v Speaker 1>carry the ball ton like he normally doesn't. Still finish

0:39:59.200 --> 0:40:02.840
<v Speaker 1>RB twelve because he So that's what it brings to

0:40:02.880 --> 0:40:04.359
<v Speaker 1>the table. If you could get a guy that could

0:40:04.360 --> 0:40:06.200
<v Speaker 1>do both. The problem is you gotta be careful to

0:40:06.239 --> 0:40:08.759
<v Speaker 1>guys like Duke Johnson who's not getting any carries on

0:40:08.800 --> 0:40:11.319
<v Speaker 1>the ground, only getting stuff through the air. And it's

0:40:11.360 --> 0:40:15.640
<v Speaker 1>not always consistent, you know, it's hard to find. Yeah,

0:40:16.200 --> 0:40:20.320
<v Speaker 1>but is kind of a satellite back himself. But but

0:40:20.480 --> 0:40:22.279
<v Speaker 1>he's just a freak dude. He's just really but the

0:40:22.320 --> 0:40:24.960
<v Speaker 1>way that he does it is just it's insane. And

0:40:25.120 --> 0:40:28.040
<v Speaker 1>that'll be in a situation to pay attention to in

0:40:28.040 --> 0:40:29.959
<v Speaker 1>the all season because Melvin Gordon is the free agent.

0:40:30.360 --> 0:40:32.719
<v Speaker 1>So if Austin Ekeler has his back field to himself, man,

0:40:33.280 --> 0:40:35.239
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about him as you know, a first round

0:40:35.280 --> 0:40:39.240
<v Speaker 1>pick as well. Yeah, at least maybe the worst early

0:40:39.320 --> 0:40:42.279
<v Speaker 1>second round. Yeah, he would probably be at that turn,

0:40:42.800 --> 0:40:45.319
<v Speaker 1>right at that turn. Yeah, and I would touch it. Yeah.

0:40:45.480 --> 0:40:47.400
<v Speaker 1>And again look just to put a bow on the

0:40:47.480 --> 0:40:50.400
<v Speaker 1>running backs that don't catch passes. Again, it's hard to

0:40:52.320 --> 0:40:56.560
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to trust it completely. But I think for

0:40:56.640 --> 0:40:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the most part, you know, when those guys are gonna

0:40:59.280 --> 0:41:01.920
<v Speaker 1>be the main backs in their backfield. We knew that

0:41:01.920 --> 0:41:04.279
<v Speaker 1>about Chubb, We knew that about Henry for the most part,

0:41:04.360 --> 0:41:06.920
<v Speaker 1>we knew that about Josh Jacobs. When you have that

0:41:07.520 --> 0:41:10.759
<v Speaker 1>combination of talent and Jacobs has a great offensive line,

0:41:10.960 --> 0:41:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Derrick Henry has a great offensive line. The Browns didn't,

0:41:13.680 --> 0:41:16.200
<v Speaker 1>but opportunity Chub is that great of a talent where

0:41:16.280 --> 0:41:18.880
<v Speaker 1>you know he was able to exceed that. UM. I

0:41:18.920 --> 0:41:21.279
<v Speaker 1>think it'll be easier to kind of point out those

0:41:21.400 --> 0:41:24.680
<v Speaker 1>running backs heading into the two, like third, third, fourth

0:41:24.800 --> 0:41:26.839
<v Speaker 1>round picks this year. Think about it. They all went

0:41:26.880 --> 0:41:29.800
<v Speaker 1>in kind of that area except for Chubb. Yeah, but

0:41:29.960 --> 0:41:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Carson Henry all third round picks because of their you know,

0:41:35.200 --> 0:41:37.120
<v Speaker 1>they're not able to catch those passes and now look

0:41:37.160 --> 0:41:39.160
<v Speaker 1>what they are. The thing is, will you go back

0:41:39.239 --> 0:41:41.759
<v Speaker 1>into the well and draft these like, why would you

0:41:41.840 --> 0:41:43.920
<v Speaker 1>drift Derrick Henry? Now you're paying up for him, that's

0:41:43.960 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>the problem. Now you gotta pay for him coming off

0:41:45.680 --> 0:41:48.239
<v Speaker 1>a season where he's gonna regress from or at least

0:41:48.239 --> 0:41:51.719
<v Speaker 1>we think, because he's not gonna have however, you know,

0:41:53.239 --> 0:41:57.840
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns again rushing, which he could do, but he carries.

0:41:58.040 --> 0:42:01.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know. It's he could regress pretty easily.

0:42:02.120 --> 0:42:06.560
<v Speaker 1>Look here, he had sixteen rushing and two receiving. The

0:42:06.640 --> 0:42:09.000
<v Speaker 1>guy had eight team receptions and two of those went

0:42:09.080 --> 0:42:12.320
<v Speaker 1>for touchdowns. He had eighteen total touchdowns. So you have

0:42:12.400 --> 0:42:14.440
<v Speaker 1>to imagine that's gonna that number is gonna come back

0:42:14.480 --> 0:42:15.960
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. But you're right, you'd you'd end up

0:42:15.960 --> 0:42:19.440
<v Speaker 1>paying for what might be a career year for Derrick Henrys.

0:42:19.440 --> 0:42:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Are gonna be all talking points throughout the course of

0:42:21.520 --> 0:42:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the off season, um heading into the Fantasy football Draft.

0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:28.040
<v Speaker 1>I didn't want to get your thoughts on this because

0:42:28.040 --> 0:42:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I know that you're a big Dalvin Cook guy. And

0:42:29.760 --> 0:42:31.799
<v Speaker 1>I said this last week and I started to look

0:42:31.800 --> 0:42:34.040
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more into it. But I think Kareem

0:42:34.080 --> 0:42:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Hunt is gonna leave the Cleveland Browns. I don't think

0:42:37.040 --> 0:42:38.880
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna be back with this team. He's a restricted

0:42:38.920 --> 0:42:41.239
<v Speaker 1>free agent. I think some team is going to sign

0:42:41.320 --> 0:42:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt to starter money and I don't think that

0:42:44.080 --> 0:42:47.640
<v Speaker 1>the Cleveland Browns are going to match whatever contract offer

0:42:47.680 --> 0:42:49.440
<v Speaker 1>he gets. Don't need to do makes sense. They have

0:42:49.560 --> 0:42:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Nick Chubb. You know they can find uh you know,

0:42:52.080 --> 0:42:55.520
<v Speaker 1>uh supplementary running back in the draft, or you know,

0:42:55.560 --> 0:42:58.920
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's Doncharle Hilliard, whatever it might be. I think

0:42:59.000 --> 0:43:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt will be gone. And last week I said,

0:43:01.080 --> 0:43:03.520
<v Speaker 1>if he has gone, I would take Nick Chubb over

0:43:03.680 --> 0:43:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Dalvin Cook next year as a top five pick. And

0:43:07.760 --> 0:43:11.040
<v Speaker 1>I know that you are a You're a Dalvin Cook guy.

0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:13.120
<v Speaker 1>And I thinks, like, I think it's close, Like you're

0:43:13.160 --> 0:43:16.040
<v Speaker 1>literally nitpicking between Cook and Chubb here because they're both

0:43:16.120 --> 0:43:19.560
<v Speaker 1>super talented. But for me, I look at what Nick

0:43:19.640 --> 0:43:21.719
<v Speaker 1>Chubb did this year and the fact that all we

0:43:21.800 --> 0:43:23.879
<v Speaker 1>kept talking about was that his offensive line wasn't great.

0:43:24.480 --> 0:43:28.200
<v Speaker 1>The Browns offense was dysfunctional, it wasn't great either wasn't

0:43:28.200 --> 0:43:30.080
<v Speaker 1>good at all. And he for half the season he

0:43:30.160 --> 0:43:33.360
<v Speaker 1>had Kareem Hunt and he still finishes the RB seven.

0:43:34.040 --> 0:43:35.759
<v Speaker 1>He nearly led the league in rushing if it wasn't

0:43:35.760 --> 0:43:38.520
<v Speaker 1>for Derrick Henry going off again yesterday. He did all

0:43:38.640 --> 0:43:42.200
<v Speaker 1>that under the circumstances that he was in. Right, I

0:43:42.280 --> 0:43:44.560
<v Speaker 1>think that he has higher upside than than Dalvin Cook.

0:43:44.920 --> 0:43:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I think it's so close. I think the differences and

0:43:48.920 --> 0:43:51.000
<v Speaker 1>this is what washes each other out, is that Dalvin

0:43:51.000 --> 0:43:53.239
<v Speaker 1>Cooks has this injury history now because now it's been

0:43:53.280 --> 0:43:54.520
<v Speaker 1>three years in a row. We got injured at the

0:43:54.640 --> 0:43:56.520
<v Speaker 1>end of the season this year. But he showed what

0:43:56.600 --> 0:43:58.800
<v Speaker 1>he could bring to the table and how good he is. Chubb,

0:43:59.520 --> 0:44:01.680
<v Speaker 1>his only flow is that he doesn't catch a ton

0:44:01.719 --> 0:44:05.280
<v Speaker 1>of passes. Cream Hunt became that specialist. I'm happy himself.

0:44:05.719 --> 0:44:08.279
<v Speaker 1>He might right, and he's a great runner, and he's

0:44:08.320 --> 0:44:10.200
<v Speaker 1>just super talented. Both these guys super talent. I think

0:44:10.239 --> 0:44:13.279
<v Speaker 1>you can't go wrong either way. The thing is the

0:44:13.360 --> 0:44:16.000
<v Speaker 1>injury history lingers in your mind with Dalvin Cook. But

0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I have a bit of taste from Chubb. In Week sixteen,

0:44:18.680 --> 0:44:20.120
<v Speaker 1>douted it from me and that kind of left a

0:44:20.120 --> 0:44:22.480
<v Speaker 1>bit of taste in my mouth. Uh yeah, the clothes.

0:44:22.520 --> 0:44:25.239
<v Speaker 1>That doesn't forget five fantasy points for me. So but listen,

0:44:25.280 --> 0:44:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I just like Dalvin Cook. So I think it's a

0:44:27.239 --> 0:44:30.160
<v Speaker 1>preference thing. I think it's really that close. They're both

0:44:30.239 --> 0:44:32.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna be there, guys, They're both gonna get a ton

0:44:32.480 --> 0:44:35.560
<v Speaker 1>of touches. I just think I think the upside is

0:44:35.560 --> 0:44:38.080
<v Speaker 1>almost exactly the same, and I also think the floor

0:44:38.200 --> 0:44:40.680
<v Speaker 1>is similar. I think maybe Cook's floor is a little higher,

0:44:40.840 --> 0:44:42.759
<v Speaker 1>just because they'll catch more passes. Once again, I'm going

0:44:42.800 --> 0:44:46.320
<v Speaker 1>back to this, but I had to break out of it.

0:44:46.680 --> 0:44:48.800
<v Speaker 1>It's a little higher for that reason. You know, I

0:44:48.840 --> 0:44:51.279
<v Speaker 1>don't know how many passes Chubb is gonna catch. You know,

0:44:51.360 --> 0:44:54.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm happy you brought up the targets and receptions because

0:44:54.800 --> 0:44:57.640
<v Speaker 1>for these two Dalvin Cook on the season had fifteen

0:44:57.719 --> 0:45:00.239
<v Speaker 1>percent of the target chair for the Minnesota Vikings. In

0:45:00.400 --> 0:45:03.160
<v Speaker 1>games that Nick Chubb played without Kareem Hunt, he had

0:45:03.200 --> 0:45:06.839
<v Speaker 1>a twelve percent target share, So he wasn't far off.

0:45:06.960 --> 0:45:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we're talking about over the course of a

0:45:08.560 --> 0:45:11.520
<v Speaker 1>full season, Nick Chubb. If Kareem Hunt wasn't there. Remember

0:45:11.600 --> 0:45:13.680
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt came in and soaked up all the running

0:45:13.680 --> 0:45:16.800
<v Speaker 1>back targets and receptions. If he's not there, Nick Chubb

0:45:16.960 --> 0:45:19.719
<v Speaker 1>probably finishes the season with close to fifty receptions, maybe

0:45:19.719 --> 0:45:21.879
<v Speaker 1>even more than fifty receptions. He could be a true

0:45:21.880 --> 0:45:24.920
<v Speaker 1>elite work he can. And you know, I looked at

0:45:25.000 --> 0:45:28.400
<v Speaker 1>these advanced numbers that we like to use the analytics

0:45:28.440 --> 0:45:31.960
<v Speaker 1>for running backs, and Chubb was first in breakaway runs

0:45:32.000 --> 0:45:34.719
<v Speaker 1>those are runs of more than fifteen yards. First in

0:45:34.840 --> 0:45:38.200
<v Speaker 1>yards created This comes according to Player Profiler. Second in

0:45:38.320 --> 0:45:41.040
<v Speaker 1>yards after contact per attempt. That's from Pro Football Focus

0:45:41.400 --> 0:45:44.640
<v Speaker 1>second in avoided tackles. So Nick Chubb has the ability

0:45:44.680 --> 0:45:48.279
<v Speaker 1>to break out long runs make opposing defenders miss, and

0:45:48.400 --> 0:45:51.520
<v Speaker 1>Dalvin Cook can do that as well, but the numbers

0:45:51.560 --> 0:45:53.800
<v Speaker 1>at lie he doesn't do it as good. Six and

0:45:53.880 --> 0:45:58.040
<v Speaker 1>breakaway runs fourth in yards created, sixteenth in yards after

0:45:58.160 --> 0:46:02.479
<v Speaker 1>contact per attempt, tied for eighth in avoided tackles. So look,

0:46:02.920 --> 0:46:04.200
<v Speaker 1>this is what we're gonna have to do next year.

0:46:04.200 --> 0:46:06.000
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna have to split hairs. You don't you don't

0:46:06.000 --> 0:46:07.920
<v Speaker 1>want to get your first round pick wrong because we

0:46:08.040 --> 0:46:10.800
<v Speaker 1>were doing this this year for you know, David Johnson

0:46:11.080 --> 0:46:14.520
<v Speaker 1>versus Ezekie Elliott, and if you chose the wrong one,

0:46:14.719 --> 0:46:16.359
<v Speaker 1>you were screwed. Then you were screwed. I don't think

0:46:16.560 --> 0:46:18.799
<v Speaker 1>in this case, if they're both healthy, I don't think

0:46:18.840 --> 0:46:21.200
<v Speaker 1>you could go wrong. Maybe because of the healthy Chub

0:46:21.360 --> 0:46:23.719
<v Speaker 1>you take over call. Yeah, I owe either way you're

0:46:23.719 --> 0:46:25.959
<v Speaker 1>you're going. I'm getting the closer in on the Chub.

0:46:26.320 --> 0:46:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting the closer give him ub. I know you

0:46:29.360 --> 0:46:32.600
<v Speaker 1>heard the promo a million times from spitting speeds, give

0:46:32.960 --> 0:46:34.680
<v Speaker 1>the closer all of the Chubb. I want to take

0:46:34.760 --> 0:46:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Chubb as well. Man top five pick for me in

0:46:37.960 --> 0:46:39.480
<v Speaker 1>We'll be back. We'll wrap up the show. It's the
