00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: Hey everyone, welcome back. It's Bobby Seleicster, host of the

2
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: Fantasy Prows Football podcast, and we've got another crazy week

3
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: to chat about and an important fantasy week to start

4
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: looking ahead too. By the way, I've had a lot

5
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: of people ask about the outdoor song and the intro

6
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: song to the podcast. It's the same song. The band

7
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: is Absol Facto and the song name is Dissolved. Check

8
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: it out if you guys want now. Our guest for

9
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: today's show is Jeff Ratcliffe of Pro Football Focus dot Com. Hey, Jeff,

10
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: how's your weekend? This weekend? For a lot of people,

11
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: I know it wasn't very good. For me, it was

12
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: pretty good. DFS wise was my best week of the

13
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: season season long. I don't know. I'm in the hunt

14
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: for the advancing to the next round in a home league.

15
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: That's pretty important to me. But I can't complain. It

16
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: was a crazy weekend of football, but I had essentially

17
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: one hundred percent exposure to Levion Bell so glad there

18
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: you go, me too. Yeah, DFS went well for me. Unfortunately,

19
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: I was looking at bye weeks this week, so I

20
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 1: didn't have to deal with this mass. But you know

21
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: what got to watch some good football, and I know

22
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: it was a nightmare for some of these owners. But

23
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: you know, I'm a huge baseball fan, so I've got

24
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Pros Baseball podcast that I host too, and

25
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: I love a well played baseball game that usually starts

26
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 1: with a pitcher painting the black, mixing up a commit,

27
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: mixing up a pitch as having command of mall. It's

28
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: just art. And that's exactly what I saw last night

29
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: in this Cowboys Giants game. No, the qps weren't really

30
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: on their games, but the defense is man. Olivier Vernon

31
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: put on a clinic against Tyron Smith, the best offensive

32
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: lineman in football, Genors Jenkins eight, Dez Bryan alive. And

33
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: then you've got Sean Lee for the Cowboys. I know

34
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: all the raves about Luke Keikley, but Sean Lee is

35
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: instant run defense. You stick him on the forty nine ers,

36
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: they might actually be a mediocre run defense. If you

37
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: want to watch good football or teacher kid how to

38
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: play football the right way, just have them watching number

39
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: fifty for the Cowboys. He's good and coverage too. Let's

40
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: not sell him short. He's been one of my favorite

41
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: players of the knock on Lee throughout the course of

42
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: his career, as he hasn't been able to stay healthy

43
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 1: for a full season, but we're actually seeing that out

44
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: of him this year and he's a big part of

45
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: the success. I mean, this is a defense coming into

46
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,119
Speaker 1: this year, we said, well, they don't have any pass rushers,

47
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: they have Shaun Lee, they have an okay secondary, but

48
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: even there you might be a little bit concerned. And

49
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: they've really done a tremendous job. And you're right. That

50
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: game last night it wasn't the game that maybe fantasy

51
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: owners want, especially Des Bryant fantasy owners, but you know

52
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: it was. It's just great football to watch and I

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: love those NFC's battles. You know, we were also a

54
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: fantasy owners. I won't speak for myself because I don't

55
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: have Drew Brees on my teams, fortunately, but they were

56
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: burned by Drew Brees. It was an ugly week all around.

57
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: So hopefully you got a bye week like me, didn't

58
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: have to deal with it. But if you're still listening,

59
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: I guess it means you're still alive in your playoffs,

60
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: so congrats. We're here to break down the top waiver

61
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 1: wire pickups of the week for you and Jeff, We've

62
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: got to start with Balal Powell for the Jets, right,

63
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: I mean, we're recording Monday afternoon, so the news might

64
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 1: come out that Forte between now and when you guys

65
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: are listening is healthy. But if you ask me, it

66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: looks like Pale is gonna take over. And this really

67
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: excites me. I've been raping about him all year, begging

68
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: our listeners to pick him up five point eight yards

69
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: per carry. Jeff, how do you like him against Miami

70
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: this week and the Patson Championship week? Well, the Pats

71
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,839
Speaker 1: might be a little concerning. I'm interested to see how

72
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: this defense progresses through December, because obviously getting rid of

73
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: your best linebacker in the middle of the season isn't

74
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: an ideal path to the Super Bowl. But we've seen

75
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: Belichick make things shine. You know. I'm concerned there. But

76
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: that's not necessarily a great matchup from a game script standpoint.

77
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: I think the Dolphins will be a better matchup, but

78
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: we do have to put everything into context. This was

79
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: against the forty nine ers. This might be the worst

80
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 1: run defense I've ever seen. Like they are the antithesis,

81
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: the exact opposite of the eighty five Bears. You know

82
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: everything wrong with this defense and anybody can run on

83
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: which it's it's just a rough break. If you're a

84
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: Mat Forte owner, hoping he squeeze a little bit more

85
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: out of him at the end of the season, and

86
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: I have confidence he would have done pretty much the

87
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: same exact thing to this defense. So trying to put

88
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: that into context, trying to remember the Bryce Petties out

89
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: there at quarterback for this offense and really did not

90
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: look particularly good in this contest, and somehow they managed

91
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: to snake their way into a victory here. But I

92
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: think at this point though, with how bad running back

93
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 1: is and the volume that Powell would figure to see,

94
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: he's the obvious top guy if he's a noble. And

95
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: the nice thing about him though, is he won't he

96
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: won't come off the field at all. You know, Brandon

97
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 1: Wilds is there, Brandon Wilds isn't gonna play much. Pale

98
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: should see plenty of volume, and if Forte is out,

99
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: it does sound like that's gonna be the way this

100
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: plays out. Pal is a guy you can almost pencil

101
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: in for twenty touch is a game over the final

102
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: three games of the season here I'll say this too

103
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: about pal I mean, if you didn't own him already

104
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: in your league, he's only owned in forty one percent

105
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: of leagues through Yahoo and ESPN. If you didn't own him,

106
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know what you were thinking, because

107
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: you know he's he's a solid flex player right now.

108
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: And there was always that chance that Matt Forte, who

109
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: who's old, is going to go down, and it happens.

110
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: We thought that it might happen. So look, this is

111
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: why you carry a lot of running backs, because a

112
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: player like Matt Forte could go down and cost you

113
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. So you carry all these running backs

114
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 1: and you hope the have plenty of options. So I've

115
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 1: got my options. I hope you were listening, and I

116
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,679
Speaker 1: hope you have your options too if you don't. Though,

117
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: Kenneth Farrow for San Diego, and I didn't think I'd

118
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: ever be saying his name during the season, but Danny

119
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: Wood heads down, Melvin Gordon's down, and this one looks

120
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: like it's gonna be bad too. Farrow had sixteen carries,

121
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: he had six receptions in the backfield, and he's gonna

122
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 1: keep getting work in this schedule. The rest of the season.

123
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful thing. Oakland, Cleveland. That's two of the

124
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: worst five run defenses in the NFL, and he just

125
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: might help you win a fantasy championship right possibly. I

126
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: don't know how bad this injury actually is gonna be.

127
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: I mean, we heard some reports that you know, it's

128
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: a hip injury that isn't that bad. But maybe we

129
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: do see Gordon end up missing some time here. I

130
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: hate to say it though, but Ronnie Hillman's on this

131
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: roster and he was not active. Now people say, well,

132
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: he wasn't active, so it's definitely gonna be Kenneth Fara, Well,

133
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: not necessarily, and we've seen this with other folks. Cameron

134
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: Artis Paine is sort of the quintessential example. He's a

135
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: guy who does not play special teams. So if Jonathan

136
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: Stewart's active, he's not going to be active. So in

137
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: this case, I think that's what we're seeing with Ronie

138
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: Hilman wasn'tnna play special teams, so he wasn't active. This

139
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: could be pretty interesting. Now Pharaohs a guy coming into

140
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: the league too who was pretty he was under the

141
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: radar obviously, you know coming into the league. But a

142
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: pretty good college player, so there's some appeal there. We

143
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: know that they like to use the running backs very heavily,

144
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: so at least there's that. But I'd like to see

145
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: how this shakes out. The unfortunate thing is we're really

146
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: not going to get an opportunity to do so before

147
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: Waiver's process. Very likely, but keep in mind deeper leagues.

148
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: I think Ronnie Hillman actually is going to probably be

149
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: worth it. Dart as well Man, that's really interesting, Jeff,

150
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: I have to admit it, I did not think about that.

151
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: The thing with Roe is, I mean, he wasn't drafted,

152
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: but if you look at his pro day. Now, he

153
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: didn't go to the Combine, but if you look at

154
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: his pro day, he was one of the three or

155
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: four most athletic running backs that came out of college

156
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: in this draft class. I think the boy has a

157
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: chance to play some good football, and maybe maybe we'll

158
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: be able to find out this week. Yeah there's a chance,

159
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: there is a chance. I you know, again, this is

160
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: this is one of those scenarios where I don't really

161
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: want to have to be making this decision. Hopefully I

162
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: wasn't impacted by it, but yeah, if you're a Gordon

163
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: owner and you somehow snuck through, but despite getting a

164
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: goose egg basically from him, then you're gonna need some

165
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: options and he could be one of those options. All right,

166
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: let's talk about Robbie Anderson. Now, Robbie Anderson two weeks

167
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: ago had twelve targets. Bryce Petty just loves passing to him.

168
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: And then this week against the forty nine ers, he

169
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: had a career day. And I know it's the forty

170
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: nine ers, right, but Robbie Anderson looks pretty good to me.

171
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 1: What are you seeing on the film? Well, I'm seeing

172
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: a lot of what we saw in the preseason. Here's

173
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: why the preseason matters. You know the people out there

174
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: who say the preseason stupid, it doesn't matter, Yes, does.

175
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: And when we look back to the preseason, now, you

176
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: could play preseason DFS, I know, only lunatics like like

177
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: me and you know folks like that, yeah, fast, But

178
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: if you look back to preseason DFS preseason performances, the

179
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: number one fantasy quarterback for the preseason was Dak Prescott.

180
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: That turned out pretty well, but a lot of times

181
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 1: you look to like wide receivers things like that, you're

182
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: not gonna get a lot of insight. Robbie Anderson was

183
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: the number one preseason Fantasy wide receiver. He had two

184
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty four receiving yards, three touchdowns. I know

185
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: who was thrown and the ball most of the time

186
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: was Bryce Petty. So we look at Anderson, what does

187
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: he do well? I mean, he is rail thin, but

188
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 1: he is flat out fast and he was productive at

189
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: Temple University, which happens to be my album mater as well,

190
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: So you know, I like that he was productive there.

191
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: And it's not a program that's gonna really sling the

192
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: rock around the field, so, you know, a little bit

193
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: underrated in that regard, but he played. He played his

194
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: way ahead of Sharon Peak. And Sharon Peak I thought

195
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: coming in was a much better talent than Robbie Anderson.

196
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: But Anderson just he's got to go, and he's got

197
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: to go in with with Bryce Petty. Now, well, I

198
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: also have to say, though, I actually had somebody on

199
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: my Serious XM show talking about dropping Brandon Marshall for

200
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson. Now that is knee jerk, that is extreme.

201
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: You don't drop Brandon Marshall. You do pick up Robbie Anderson.

202
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: But you don't drop Brandon Marshall. Yeah. Man, I hate

203
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: to hear about stuff like that. It just brings up

204
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 1: all the stories that I have from Twitter and email

205
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: where it's like, guys, don't drop Tom Brady. What are

206
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: you thinking? I didn't actually get any that bad, But like,

207
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: that's what it's like sometimes. I mean, guys, chill out.

208
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: We're talking about some of the best players in football.

209
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: If they have one bad week or one bad matchup,

210
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 1: don't drop them. Okay, I got that off my chest.

211
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the other running backs. We're gonna get

212
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: some carries time. Montgomery got some work, and we know

213
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: what he can do when he's getting work, So if

214
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: he's gonna keep getting it, maybe pick him up. And

215
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: then Dwayne Washington, who you know, I love his athletic profile.

216
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: He finally got sixteen carries and it didn't look that

217
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: bad against Chicago and Chicago's run defense has actually been

218
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: pretty good this year. So these two guys, if you're

219
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: not able to get Powell or Frick or Pharaoh, which

220
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 1: of these two do you prefer to pick up? Jeff,

221
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: It's tough. I don't really want any piece of the

222
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,439
Speaker 1: Green Bay backfield. Mike McCarthy finally came out and said, hey,

223
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: by the way, he's been in running back meetings since,

224
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 1: you know, for the last two months or whatever it's been.

225
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: So I don't want any piece of it, though, because

226
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: when you go go through that whole backfield, Chris and

227
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: Michael and I just said his name, So out there

228
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: there are people foaming at the mouth because I say

229
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: the name Chris and Michael. But Chris and Michael had

230
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: ten carries. You saw Montgomery get banged up in this game,

231
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 1: but nine carries Jeff Janis is getting carries out of

232
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: the backfield. He had the one. Of course he scores

233
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: the touchdown, But regardless, I don't want a piece of this.

234
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: The appeal to Montgomery is if he gets receptions and

235
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: three targets in this game. So didn't really offer that

236
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: much in that department. So that's the problem. And I

237
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: think you look to Washington though, and like you said,

238
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: the athletic ability I thought was really appealing about him

239
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: entering this season, and beyond that, Matthew Stafford's dealing with

240
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: a finger injury, and let's take a look. I mean,

241
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: we've already had the precedent set here Oakland. Derek Carr,

242
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: dealing with a finger injury, has a really bad fantasy game,

243
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: and Latavius Murray has a really good fantasy game. Now.

244
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: Of course, part of that was because Derek Johnson left

245
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 1: the game, and that's a gaping hole in the Kansas

246
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: City defense now. But either way, they lean on the

247
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: running back and if Theo Riddick remains banged up, even

248
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 1: without him banged up, I think that Washington is a

249
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: much better runner between the tackles. So he does have

250
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: some appeal. This is a guy who maybe we were

251
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: probably I guess three months early on when we all

252
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 1: added him way back when in the beginning part of

253
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 1: the season, but he might be able to offer some

254
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: value here down the stretch for the last two weeks

255
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: of the fantasy season. Yeah, he's really interesting to me.

256
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 1: He's kind of the same as Christine Michael, Like I

257
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: just can't help myself with him because he's got the

258
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: rollability and you know, it's funny with Christine Michael. Now

259
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,839
Speaker 1: that all this drama has happened in the season, he's

260
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: probably gonna end up taken over in Green Bay and

261
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: just being dominant the last two weeks. That's just the

262
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: way the narrative is going to play out, he could

263
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: be the Super Bowl MVP. Oh Man football is just amazing.

264
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: It's just so great, all right. So Dontrell Inman is

265
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: he's been getting more looks. As far as I'm concerned

266
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: with what I'm seeing. I talked about this a little

267
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 1: bit last week. I think he's just about as good

268
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: as Tyrell Williams. And I know Williams has been scoring

269
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns lately, but you know what, don't

270
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: look now. Inman has three straight weeks with a touchdown.

271
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: He's getting a lot of targets. Do you like him

272
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: more than someone like Marquise Lee, who's been doing it

273
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,439
Speaker 1: pretty much all season, or which of these guys do

274
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: you prefer? You know, I like the Albino Tiger a

275
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 1: little bit more Marquise Lee. And it's pretty simple. I

276
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: think Lee has more upside than Inman does. Inman is

277
00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: a slot receiver and he was actually in this game

278
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: able to take advantage of one of the weak spots

279
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 1: in that Carolina defense. This is a team that actually

280
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 1: just cut their slot corner, so Robert McLean and they've

281
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: been relying on Leonard Johnson out there and Leonard Johnson

282
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: is just basically a turnstyle out there. In this game,

283
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: Imman took advantage of James Bradbury, a rookie corner Daryl Worley.

284
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: All of his receptions were on those two guys, So

285
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: you know, I look at him and he's still a

286
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: lower ceiling guy that, yeah, maybe has some touchdown appeal,

287
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: but you look to that that team, the upside guy

288
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: is Tyrrelle. So Markisley is intriguing. For as bad as

289
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles is, he somehow keeps managing to put up

290
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: reasonably good numbers. I mean, in a week that was

291
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: devastating at quarterback for so many folks. I've seen teams

292
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: out there who started Blake Bortles and they're sitting just

293
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: fine this week, which is just insane to think given

294
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: his level of play this season. But you look at

295
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: the target district, Ushan and Alan Robinson. This was a

296
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: tough game for Alan Robinson. But you go back to

297
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: the well the next two weeks. If you have Alan

298
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: Robinson against Houston, who he did he put work on

299
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks back about a month ago, and

300
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: then he gets Tennessee and Tennessee's and shambles in the secondary.

301
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: They cut a starter going into their bye week Parish

302
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: Cox two weeks ago, so I like that. But Marquise Lee, yeah,

303
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: really has come on nice. Eight targets in this game,

304
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: led the team in targets, went up over a hundred yards.

305
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: I think he's got that skill set. And this is

306
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: a kid too. If he came out one year earlier

307
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: from college, he was a first round draft pick, you know,

308
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: he kind of yeah, he's submarine, his his stock and

309
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: that talent is finally coming to the service. He's got

310
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: the talent. He just was banged up for so long

311
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: that we weren't able to see it. And he's in

312
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: talking to guys in the beat in Jacksonville. He is

313
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: their fastest receiver. It's not Hearns, it's not Robinson, it's

314
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: Marquise Lee. So he's got some serious upside, you know.

315
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: And the real bummer about Lee is he's not one

316
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: hundred percent of what he once was as an athlete.

317
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: You know, he has taken a step backwards because of

318
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: all those injuries, but he's still really good. This guy

319
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: could have been a great receiver in the NFL if

320
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: he stayed healthy. He still has a chance. He's still

321
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: a younger player too. I mean, there's shelf life at

322
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: the epic receiver position this you know, I know, dynasty

323
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: leagues aren't maybe as popular as they once where the

324
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: dynasty seemed to have this trajectory where it was getting

325
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: super popular, but then DFS hit and you know, dynasty

326
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: got kind of pushed into the background as well. But

327
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 1: I think everybody out there should play at least in

328
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: one dynasty league because you're able to keep your finger

329
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: on the pulse of football year round. It really requires

330
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: you to do so. And beyond that, you start to

331
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: learn more about about the performances that you can. It

332
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: can help you in redraft as well. Based on the

333
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: age of these guys, and you know, you look at

334
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: the receiver position these guys, there's shelf life is so

335
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: much longer. I mean, some of these guys are peaking

336
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: at thirty one, thirty two, thirty three, where we would

337
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: never you know, in a million years one of running

338
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: back that age. I mean, Frank Gore is basically defying

339
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: gravity at this point, and he's a super low upside guy.

340
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 1: And you look at Lee, I mean still pretty young.

341
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 1: Beau was born in nineteen ninety one, So that's a

342
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: little scary to me, somebody born in the seventies. But regardless,

343
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: I think there's there's good football ahead. It's just it

344
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,439
Speaker 1: depends on what this team ultimately does. It's it's not

345
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: working there unfortunately too. That Jacksonville Jaguars defense. It is working.

346
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: It's been really good over the last you know, month

347
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: and a half or so, but it's you know, too little,

348
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: too late, unfortunately for the Gus Bradley regime. You know,

349
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 1: you were talking about dynasty leagues, and I completely agree.

350
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: I think everyone needs to be in one. It's the

351
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:51,959
Speaker 1: best thing in all of fantasy sports as far as

352
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 1: I'm concerned. I want to ask you a question about

353
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: these dynasty leagues. Though you mentioned Alan Robinson, we've also

354
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: got new Copkins Deandrew. How for Houston, who have just

355
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: been terrible disappointments, what do you see them doing next year?

356
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: Are they going to bounce back? Well, their performances have

357
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,400
Speaker 1: obviously been very much linked up to their quarterback situation.

358
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,239
Speaker 1: Houston is really tricky because brock Osweidler has been just

359
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: obviously a massive disappointment and maybe we should have expected that.

360
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:28,159
Speaker 1: But in terms of a bounce back. I don't know

361
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 1: if we can say bounce back for DeAndre Hopkins, because

362
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 1: if you actually look to how he's performed on the field,

363
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 1: he's been good. You know, It's just the stacks don't

364
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: necessarily match the production. But I still think he's a

365
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 1: top ten Dynasty receiver because of how young he is,

366
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: because of the upside that he has. I'm not really

367
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 1: overly concerned with that. Alan Robinson is intriguing, though we

368
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: knew he was going to regress from last year. I mean,

369
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: you don't go out you put up fourteen hundred yards

370
00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: and fourteen touchdowns and expect to see a guy do

371
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: that year in year out. It's just not possible. But

372
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: that's the ceiling that this kid has. And if Blake Bortles,

373
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: I don't I wish I knew what Blake Bortle's ultimate

374
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: destiny was in the NFL. But even if he just

375
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 1: continues doing what he's doing right now, it's hard for

376
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: me to keep Alan Robinson outside of my top ten

377
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: Dynasty receivers given the ceiling that he has, given the

378
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: ability that he has the prototype wide receiver. One body,

379
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 1: you know, if I was drafting today, that's the beauty

380
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 1: to these Their value is depressed a little bit. But

381
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: he was a twenty three year old receiver who's already

382
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: been a wide receiver one in his career. I think

383
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: you almost have to view him still at long term

384
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: as as a strong wide receiver one. That's a good

385
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: way to put it, Jeff. Now I'm looking at Tyler

386
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: Lockett and it's just a I don't know what to do.

387
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do with him. I mean,

388
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: if you're a fantasy team and you've got Tyler Lockett

389
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: sitting there, flex him. His stat line last week did

390
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: not look very good. He had four catches for forty

391
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: one yards. If you watch the game, you saw him

392
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: drop one that led to an interception, but you know

393
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: it was in the snow. And he keeps getting targets

394
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 1: the past two weeks. He looks healthy to me. He's

395
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: got a better matchup this week against the Rams, which

396
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 1: I think you could say might be the best matchup

397
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: in football at this point in time. So what do

398
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 1: you think about Tyler Lockett? Would you risk starting him

399
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: or would you prefer to go with someone maybe safer

400
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: like Pierre Garsone or in Kumbolden. Yeah, when you get

401
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: into that range, it gets tricky. I mean Lockett. I

402
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 1: was critiqued by a lot of people because I was

403
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: down on Locket entering the season, and you know I was.

404
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: Nobody's right or wrong with Lockett at this point, just

405
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: because the injury issues early on, So we don't have

406
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 1: a full sense of what he really is. We know

407
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: he's dynamic, But my concern about Lockett is a pretty

408
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: simple concern. It's the target volume, and even in this game,

409
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: so this week, Doug Baldwin almost thirty percent of the targets,

410
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: which is pretty normal. Eleven targets in the game for

411
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin, that's a little abnormal to see him get

412
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: up over double digits, but six targets that's sixteen percent.

413
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: For Tyler Lockett, it's sixteen percent. Targets. Share just isn't

414
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: enough to sustain consistent fantasy value, especially when it's in

415
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 1: an offense like Seattle that doesn't pass the ball a ton.

416
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 1: I mean, Russell Wilson, you know you kind of put

417
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: that over under at four thousand yards for a season

418
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: for him, and typically try and take the under. I

419
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 1: think you'd be just slightly under that, and you know

420
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: average seasons year in year out, the way that they

421
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: run their offense. So that's the problem. You know, you're

422
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: relying on a big play and that doesn't happen all

423
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 1: the time, even for a players dynamic as him. That

424
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: that's the same same critique that I have for Tyreek

425
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: Hill right now, is you're relying on big plays and

426
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: eventually the big plays you regress to the mean. You

427
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 1: can't have big plays every single game. I mean, Hill

428
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: is certainly doing that a lot, but these guys lock

429
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: it Hill. You're shooting for tons of upside and I

430
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: would rather look for more volume. So when you look

431
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: at it from that standpoint, maybe Garson, although Garson for

432
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: me isn't a very appealing player. I don't know. Maybe

433
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 1: it's me that I have the bad taste in my mouth.

434
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 1: So I might look to an Kuombolden because of what

435
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 1: he's been doing. But then again, target volume hasn't been

436
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: that great for him recently, only at four targets this

437
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: week did get to the end zone. But Golden Tate

438
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: is really the guy in that offense. You know, I'll

439
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: say this, if you're in this situation needing to start

440
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: one of these three players. I don't know why you're

441
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: listening to the to this podcast right now because you're

442
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: probably not in the playoffs. Your team just is not

443
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: very good, or you're about to get whooped in the playoffs.

444
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean, I feel bad if

445
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: you are in this situation, maybe had some injuries or something,

446
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: but it is not a good situation to be starting

447
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: one of these three unless you're in like a deep

448
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: league or something. Yeah, potentially you could be in that

449
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: kind of situation. That's the thing here. Or you know,

450
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 1: if you're in a situation where you have to start

451
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 1: one of those three, you're probably stacked at running back

452
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: and you know, maybe you have somebody like Odell Beckham

453
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 1: junior Jordy Nelson at wide receiver, so I guess they're

454
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 1: you know, and you also have to think too. At

455
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: this point of the year, it's not just your team.

456
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,679
Speaker 1: I mean, week in week out, through the regular season

457
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 1: and fantasy, you're thinking really largely about your team. How

458
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: can you win this week and how can you win

459
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: going forward through the rest of the season. But at

460
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: this point it's I have to win this week, so

461
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 1: I have to think about my team and I have

462
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 1: to think about my opponent's team, and if my opponent

463
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,439
Speaker 1: is week at wide receiver, then I probably should go

464
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 1: out and pick up wide receivers or whatever it is,

465
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: try and block them from making their team better, because

466
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 1: I'd rather a wide receiver be on my bench than

467
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 1: on my opponents in my opponent's starting line up. Jeff,

468
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: I'm really glad you brought that up. That's a great point,

469
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: santastic that I use every year. You have to you

470
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 1: absolutely have to do whatever it takes to win, and

471
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: that is right up there as one of the top

472
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: options to help you out. Now, Jeff, I'd like to

473
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: talk about streaming defenses, and look, I said this three

474
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: weeks ago. I said, pick up at Lanta's defense. They

475
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: have a crazy schedule coming up. We saw what happened yesterday. Okay,

476
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: they just absolutely crush the Rams. They're gonna get the

477
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: forty nine ers this week. I even like them in

478
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,679
Speaker 1: Week sixteen. I think they have a good matchup in

479
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 1: Week sixteen. But outside of the Falcons, assuming they're probably

480
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: owned in most leagues, Jeff, is there a streaming defense

481
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: that has your eye? Yeah, I guess there could be some.

482
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: I mean it depends on ownership like usual. And by

483
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 1: the way, the Falcons, they're a team I pointed out

484
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: on CBS Sports Network yesterday on Sunday as a team

485
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 1: to pick up and play. I mean, pretty obvious play

486
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: right there. But you look at some of these teams

487
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: this upcoming week. Possibly if the Dolphins are available going

488
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: up against Price Petty, obviously that dea'd be a play

489
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: of the Some of the good matchups are sort of

490
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: out of play, like obviously Seahawks going up against the Rams,

491
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: they're out of play. They're going to be owned. But

492
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 1: maybe Buffalo is out there going facing Cleveland. We saw

493
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: RG three was generally ineffective. Now weather certainly played a

494
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 1: part in that, but you gotta like RG three to

495
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 1: throw a pick or two. I think if there's no

496
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: weather issues in that game, and we can't guarantee that

497
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 1: because it's in Buffalo, but if there are no there's

498
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: no weather issues, I do think they let that offense loose.

499
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: I mean they have two Ferraris essentially on the outside,

500
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 1: and Corey Coleman and Terrelle Pryor and RG three say

501
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 1: what you will about him, he's got a good arm

502
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: and a pretty good deep ball, so I would expect

503
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: to see him air it out a little and that

504
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: means good things if you have Buffalo's defense, So I

505
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 1: would be looking at them from there. I mean again,

506
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 1: some of these matchups that you might want to take

507
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: advantage of are probably going to be owned. So that's

508
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 1: the unfortunate thing. You know, Falcons are very likely going

509
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: to be owned, or they're going to be one of

510
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: the hottest pickups if they weren't already owned. We could

511
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: follow the flow chart and go up against Jacksonville with Houston,

512
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: but they could be owned from there. You know, not

513
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: a not a ton that also stick out beyond that.

514
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: So I think, you know, if you're looking at trying

515
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 1: to prioritize buffaloes out there, you would you probably have

516
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: to go after them this week. One that's really intriguing

517
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: to me is the New York Jets. They're twenty five

518
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 1: percent owned in Yahoo. They get Miami at home. Right now,

519
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: there's forecast for snow. Now we know that's you know,

520
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: bound to change eventually. Maybe it'll be a huge snowstorm,

521
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 1: maybe it won't snow at all, but either way, just

522
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,239
Speaker 1: the chance at getting Matt more in the snow. I mean,

523
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 1: I guess we don't know if Ryan Tannehill is technically

524
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: going to be out. He's got a sprain in his

525
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: in his acl it wasn't as bad as everyone thought.

526
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,920
Speaker 1: But it's probably gonna be Matt More and it might

527
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,160
Speaker 1: be Matt Moore. In the snow there's a guy who's

528
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: throwing twenty eight interceptions twenty three fumbles in twenty five games.

529
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 1: Is just a turnover machine. And in the snow man,

530
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: this could be beautiful. This could send you into the

531
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,239
Speaker 1: championship game if you pick up the Jets and you know,

532
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 1: if it doesn't Snow, just drop him, pick up someone

533
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: else if you want. Yeah, it could be or it

534
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 1: could be Jgi. He goes for his third two hundred

535
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 1: yard game of the season. I mean, this is a

536
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 1: defense that they essentially they they almost gave up two

537
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: hundred yards on about seven carries to Carlo's hide. They've

538
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 1: pretty much quit at this point. This this team just

539
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 1: they're they're they're never not playing. And we saw it.

540
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: Remember earlier in the season that people were talking about

541
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: the Jets is one of the best run defenses in

542
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 1: the NFL. Well that was September and here we are

543
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: in December and they're just getting torched. So I think

544
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: it's it's risky, it's risky. I mean, they're certainly upside there.

545
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: That's what obviously you want to look for is can

546
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 1: I can I get turnovers? And who who's going to

547
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,639
Speaker 1: score a touchdown for me? So there's certainly that upside

548
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: we got to see with Tannehill, though you're right, the

549
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: news right now on him, we don't know. We just

550
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,160
Speaker 1: know that does not sound like this is a tear

551
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 1: in the ACL or the MCL. But typically those sources

552
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: are the the MCL, especially if that's a sprain. We

553
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: know that that the president for that is typically a

554
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: multi week absence, so you would expect to see him

555
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 1: at least out for the next week or two, which

556
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: Matt Moore definitely now we could also see them. Keep

557
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 1: in mind, Paxton Lynch was under center for the Broncos

558
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: last week and what did the Broncos do. They say, hey, kid,

559
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over, and he didn't. Really, you know,

560
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: it was a super conservative game. So maybe Adam Gasee

561
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 1: is smart enough to do that with Matt Moore. Now, Jeff,

562
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 1: before I let you go, I want to talk about

563
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: streaming tight ends. And this isn't usually a topic that

564
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 1: I bring up, but with tight ends being as bad

565
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 1: as they are, people are really disappointed with their tight ends.

566
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: They're looking for the best matchup, and I think there's

567
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 1: gonna be quite a few people streaming tight ends to

568
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: try to save their lives this weekend. Now I'm looking

569
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: at the guys who are normal suspects. Eric Hebron has

570
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 1: owned in almost every single league now, Zach Ertz is

571
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: picked up in every league. Cameron brids picked up in

572
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: every league. So we're talking about guys Charles Clay, Lance Kendricks,

573
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: Jermaine Gresham, Dennis Pitta. Are any of these guys better

574
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 1: than a Gary Barnader. It's McDonald who a lot of

575
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: people are kind of skeptical on right now. Yeah, they

576
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: probably are. I don't want to. I really don't want

577
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: any piece of Gary barnage. I think you should have

578
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: dropped him long ago, and vans McDonald was. He's so

579
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: heavily reliant on big plays. I just think you have

580
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: to be really careful about what you do here, you know,

581
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: and we can gain a little bit insight from previous performances,

582
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: but obviously not much. I mean to ask anybody out

583
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: there who got all on the Duyne Allen bandwagon for

584
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: this week and got a big fat zero for him,

585
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: you know they're You're right though, about playing matchups. I

586
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 1: talked about Daniel Brown in one of my columns as

587
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: a desperation dart and you know he's went six catches

588
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: forty two yards. Now, that's not a great week. But

589
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: in PPR, I'll take ten points out of this guy.

590
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: And you know, it was a matchup play. It was

591
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 1: just okay, he's going up against Detroit. Follow the flow

592
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: chart and there you go. So there are some possibilities.

593
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: I mean, you look to Detroit this week. Hey, if

594
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: will Tie is out there, maybe we might look at

595
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: will Tie as a possible option. Carolina obviously has been

596
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: a great matchup, so that it's gonna be the Redskins.

597
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 1: So obviously Jordan Reed will see what he can do.

598
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: But then Vernon Davis he is available in some leagues,

599
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: so he could potentially be in play as well. It's

600
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: just it's a tough position. And by the way, too,

601
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: I know some people might be a little bit concerned

602
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: about Ladarius Green after he was hyped up so much.

603
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: I'm not worried at all. It was a weather game,

604
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: it was a it was a Levion Bell Bowls. So

605
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: I US six targets Still for Ladarius Green, I think

606
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: he's gonna be just fine. And in fact, you know,

607
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: looking forward to this week against the Bengals, I think

608
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 1: he's going to be a really strong play. So if

609
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 1: you have him and you're kind of second guesting yourself,

610
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it. I would just you know, stay

611
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: the course with Green. I still think he's going to

612
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: be a monster down the stretch here. You know, I'm

613
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: gonna say Charles Clay's name one more time. He had six,

614
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: six targets last weekendst Pittsburgh. This week he gets Cleveland.

615
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: He's been getting consistent targets. They just don't have anything

616
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: in their passing beside Sammy Watkins, who he's not gonna

617
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: play the entire game. So yeah, Clay's probably gonna get

618
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: another five, six, seven targets once again. And I know

619
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: that's not ideal for a tight end, but I think

620
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: there's a pretty good floor there. He hasn't really been

621
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: getting big time yards. He doesn't have a touchdown all

622
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: season until this last week. But Charles Clay I think

623
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: he's going to get the ball thrown his way against

624
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: Cleveland this week, So if you're in a desperate situation,

625
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: I might be pointing to that direction. Yeah, that could work.

626
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: You know, we saw what Tyler Eiffert did. Keep in

627
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: mind they do use Jamie Collins in coverage on tight ends,

628
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: not all the time. He's not a full time coverage guy,

629
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: but he and he wasn't on for either one of

630
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: those touchdowns. He's on or for the other three receptions though.

631
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's a great matchup. They've been a great

632
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: matchup all season long. And you know, Clay's one of

633
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: those guys. You know, he's tight end two occasionally can

634
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: get you tight end one numbers, but somewhat a decent floor.

635
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: It's just the position's just absolutely brutal this year. It's unfortunate.

636
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: But that that's a good thing because I think next

637
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: year people might wise up a little bit more to

638
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: the fact that you really do not need to invest

639
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: in tight ends early in drafts. Don't invest in tight ends, obviously.

640
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: We always say don't invest in quarterbacks that early because

641
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: when you're rostering one or maybe two at the position

642
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: and you whiff on one of those guys, it's the

643
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 1: value cost is much more significant than if you whipped

644
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: on a wide receiver in the second round or something

645
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: to that effect. So you know that's that's the These

646
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: are the breaks. But and you know, guys like there's

647
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 1: been disappointments too, guys like Greg Olson. People were second

648
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: guessing whether or not they should start him this week,

649
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: and we saw it was just fine. He's getting heavy

650
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: volume targets and that's better than you can say for

651
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: most tight ends this year. So you keep going. If

652
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: you have a guy like him, you're just going to

653
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: keep starting, keep starting, rinse and repeat. Jeff, I almost

654
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: entirely forgot about one of my favorite pickups this week,

655
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: JJ Nelson. He's owned in less than ten percent of leagues.

656
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 1: Michael Floyd was just arrested for a duy. He gets

657
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 1: New Orleans who I understand the defense has been a

658
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,479
Speaker 1: lot better, But he had a great week. He's come

659
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 1: off a big week with two touchdowns. Do you like

660
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: him as a pickup maybe even above Robbie Anderson this week?

661
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: I mean, we've been down this road. One was a

662
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown and the other was his only other target

663
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: of the game. I'm not that overly excited the way

664
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: that Carson Palmer, the way the offense is trending, like

665
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: they're not able to protect him. The offensive line has

666
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: been banged up all season, and I don't think Palmer

667
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: is He's definitely not spinning it like he was last year. Now,

668
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: last year was super efficient, though too so it was

669
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: he was certainly well above the mean. This year he's

670
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: well below the mean. I don't want that headache because

671
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: you know, you certainly you could get twenty or so

672
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 1: PPR points that he got out of him this week,

673
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: or you could get two. I mean, if he doesn't

674
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: have that Carrie and that the reception was just a

675
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: regular reception. It was a one, you know, one catch

676
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: for eight yards. That really doesn't do much for me.

677
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I really wouldn't prioritize him too

678
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 1: highly this week. All right, Jeff, Well, that's all the

679
