Speaker 2: Swept The board went three and oh on Thanksgiving, which

19
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: is awesome. That'll be something to look back at it

Speaker 2: fondly on twenty twenty one Thanksgiving? That ain't myself silly

00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 2: for like four days and now ready to get back

22
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: in the grind.

00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: Great to be on the show with you.

24
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for coming in this super super

25
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 3: busy time. I also went three and zero on bets

26
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving and then did absolutely terrible on the Sunday

27
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 3: sleep so things happened. I went eleven and four against

28
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 3: the spread last week, so gotta be some balance of

29
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 3: the world, right, Definitely. Yeah, your g men picked up

30
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 3: a win, which is exciting. Any thoughts about that and

31
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 3: Jason Garrett getting ousted.

32
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a little worried about the Giants now.

33
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: I think Giants fans are celebrating because they won the

34
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: game yesterday against the Eagles, and always good to beat

35
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 2: the Eagles, even though Jalen Raker drops the pass at

36
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 2: the end and they win the game obviously on the

37
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: goal line there, I'm still worried though I know Dave Gentleman.

38
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: The report was for me in Rapaport of NFL Network

39
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: on Sunday, was that Gentleman's going to be gone at

40
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: season's end, whether the Giants kind of nudge him out

41
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,559
Speaker 2: or whether he retires. But they're either going to hire

42
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 2: an in house candidate or like Joe Judge, full reign

43
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: of the organization.

44
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: And to me, that's a.

45
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 2: Major step backwards, Like I really feel like they're like

46
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: closer to the beginning of this dark period than they

47
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: are the end of it, if that's what they're going

48
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 2: to do, because I don't think Joe Judge has what takes.

49
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: I kind of think he's a loser head coach with

50
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: how conservative he coaches, and I don't know what he's

51
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: done to a like earn getting full autonomy.

52
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: Over an organization.

53
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: So yeah, great, nice one yesterday, always good to beat.

54
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: The Eagles also have no faith in the direction of

55
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 2: the franchise moving forward.

56
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 3: Their enough. Well, I literally know you from your time

57
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 3: at CBS and your time on various podcasts there as

58
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 3: more of a sports betting personality. But of course I

59
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 3: have to ask you some fantasy questions. So let us

60
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 3: just hop right in what year did you start playing

61
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 3: fantasy and did you win your first league?

62
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: Well? Yeah, I started playing as Actually a great story

63
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: for you. I started playing.

64
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 2: Fantasy in like the mid nineties. My grandfather is a

65
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 2: big football fan, God Rest his soul, and he had

66
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 2: a book on his bookshelf in Great Neck, New York

67
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 2: and Long Islands, and the author is Cliff Sharp and Tear.

68
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: It's like car in Tier with.

69
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 2: An I, but with an age who I think is

70
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 2: one of like the original fantasy football writers, and it

71
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 2: was the nineteen eighty nine Literally you can actually like

72
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 2: google this and find this.

73
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: The nineteen eighty nine Fantasy Football Digest.

74
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: Greg Bell, running back for the Los Angeles Rams in

75
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: the late eighties, is on the cover. So if you

76
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 2: google like Cliff Sharp and Tier like nineteen eighty nine,

77
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 2: like this, this book will come up. And it was

78
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 2: basically like his Fantasy football Guide. It was like the

79
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: precursor at all, like fantasy football ranking magazines.

80
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: And in the.

81
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 2: Back of the book it detailed his season like that

82
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 2: year I think he stacked like Joe Montana and Jerry Rice.

83
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 2: And this is literally in like nineteen eighty nine, and

84
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 2: it was detailing like week by week what the results were,

85
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 2: who performed well led him to win, who didn't, his playoffs,

86
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 2: et cetera.

87
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: So I kind of read this and I was like, well,

88
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: like I love football. It's like a young kid.

89
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: So I remember I went out on my godfather's boat

90
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: with my dad and my grandfather and I basically made

91
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 2: them do like a fantasy football draft. It was like

92
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 2: four of us, and like I remember, I took my

93
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: Dan Marino in the first round, so pretty stupid taking

94
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 2: a quarterback in the first round. I was like eleven,

95
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: and I don't think I ended up like keeping status

96
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: that entire season. But that was like when I first

97
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 2: started getting into what was in the mid nineties. And

98
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 2: then yeah, I think, you know, basically started playing baseball

99
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 2: right after that, and yeah, I've been I've been playing

100
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: fantasy for like probably twenty five years at this point now,

101
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 2: so yeah, I've been maybe even a little more than that.

102
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: So since the nineties, I would say I've been super

103
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 2: into it.

104
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 3: That is incredible. I don't know how old you are,

105
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 3: but of course that sounds like a large percentage of

106
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 3: your life.

107
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: So I'm thirty eight, soh yeah, well over half my life.

108
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 3: Uh no, that's that's a super cool and very wholesome story.

109
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 3: And hey, there are grown people to this day in

110
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,359
Speaker 3: the ear of our Lord twenty twenty one taking quarterbacks

111
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 3: in the first round. So definitely do not gleam, little

112
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 3: Nick Costas. What are the best and worst parts about

113
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 3: playing fantasy football for you?

114
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: Well, I think I'm actually I'm old enough now where

115
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: like the worst parts don't bother me anymore.

116
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: I mean I used to just to I mean and

117
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: I might say used to.

118
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 2: I mean like even like two years ago, just like

119
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: really and who knows if I gets like the playoffs

120
00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: this year, and so least I ever really care about it,

121
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 2: and I like lose devastating fashion, I'm going to be

122
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: really upset. Yeah, I think like tilting tilting losses is

123
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 2: probably the worst. And it's also like the acceptance. It's

124
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: like kind of like very like it's like an allegory

125
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 2: for life. It's like being able to let go of

126
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 2: the things you don't have control over and just like

127
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: whatever is is, which sucks, right because like you want

128
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: to win because it's fun, but like all you can

129
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 2: do is like set the best lineup and then like

130
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: whatever happens happens, like.

131
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: You can't control, you know.

132
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 2: I had Arian Foster in I don't know this was

133
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 2: it had to have been like twenty eleven, twenty twelve,

134
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 2: or twenty thirteen because of where I lived at the time,

135
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,559
Speaker 2: and he literally got hurt in Week sixteen, like early

136
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 2: on in like the first quarter of the Texans game

137
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 2: that we could use like my first round pick, and

138
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 2: he was like the best player in Fantasy that year.

139
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,919
Speaker 2: It's like you're done, like you lose, like you lose

140
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 2: when that happens, like you cannot win. So when things

141
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 2: like that happen, fantasy could just be completely maddening. And

142
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 2: like the acceptance that it's just like kind of a

143
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 2: luck based deal, you know, Like I think getting to

144
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: the playoffs takes skill, and winning a championship you need

145
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 2: a lot of luck. That's the most frustrating part of fantasy.

146
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: The best part of fantasy. I kind of enjoyed, like

147
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 2: the grind, the roster, churning at the bottom, trying to

148
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: find like hidden gems like Deontay Forman like.

149
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: Dona before they pop.

150
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 2: I don't know, I really I really love it. And

151
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 2: besides for like the tilting, I kind of like I

152
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: love everything about it, like the process that goes into it,

153
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 2: the research that goes into it, kind of projecting what

154
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 2: players are going to do, like your own subjectivity that

155
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 2: goes into it. Uh. Yeah, it's like it's a god's

156
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 2: perfect game. Honestly, it's it's pretty fantastic.

157
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 3: I love that.

158
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

159
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 3: The roller coaster obviously super super maddening at its may

160
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 3: DearS when you like me, you know, should have started

161
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 3: Kendrick Bourne over Christian McCaffrey in one league, Like obviously

162
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 3: that was obviously just like frustrating things like that when

163
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 3: people pop off on your bench and you feel like

164
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 3: you made bad roster decisions. But it obviously makes the

165
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 3: highs even better. And especially as a person that started

166
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 3: watching football kind of like in an unorthodox way, I

167
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,679
Speaker 3: don't really have as much of a team leave students

168
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 3: because my family isn't They're not really sports fans. So

169
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 3: it's definitely made me more engaged two games just because like,

170
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 3: why would I care about some crappy Texans Dolphins game

171
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 3: or something like that. Oh, I've got three players in

172
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 3: this game, so it makes almost every game super watchful,

173
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 3: very similar to the way that legalized betting does. All right,

174
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 3: jumping into the actual football stuff, We're going to kick

175
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: it off with a quick segment called the burn book,

176
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 3: which is of course a mean girl's reference. So as

177
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 3: fantasy managers, it's so easy to have recency bias, especially

178
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 3: if a player has burned us, either due to injuries

179
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 3: or a bad week. So I'm going to run through

180
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 3: five players, and I'd like you to briefly tell us

181
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: how confident you are in that player moving forward, or

182
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 3: if they are in your burn book. So our first

183
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 3: player is Cam Newton, big Oof. You finished as QB

184
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 3: five last week for fantasy is first NFL start this week.

185
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 3: Completed five of twenty one attempts for ninety two yards,

186
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 3: zero touchdowns and two interceptions, a QBR of five. He

187
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 3: did find the end zone on the ground, but eight

188
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 3: fantasy points just isn't going to cut it. He was

189
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 3: definitely being spoken about as a streamer, kind of fringe

190
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 3: TB one just due to the rushing. But are we

191
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 3: kind of burning him out of that tier and putting

192
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 3: him in the QB two tier?

193
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I kind of I love Cam because

194
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 2: I have Lamar and like my my big league last

195
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 2: week and when Lamar, when I was out with his

196
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 2: illness against the Bears, that picked up Cam and he

197
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: absolutely crushed for me.

198
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: So I do start Cam in one league?

199
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 2: Like I'm in a super deep, like very deep, like

200
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: fourteen team league, and I picked up Cam like literally

201
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: like a minute.

202
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: After he signed with the Panthers.

203
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 2: I had this like ran and like and picked him

204
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: up then because I had Darnold in that league, I've

205
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: been sitting on Trey Lance and like he obviously hasn't played,

206
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: so that was been a huge disappointment. I picked up

207
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: Taysom Hill, who hasn't played, which is weird. I hope

208
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: that I've got Taysom in a couple of like really

209
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 2: deep leagues. I would like for him to start anyway,

210
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 2: the questions about Cam, I feel like, as long as

211
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 2: they're going to start him, the Panthers are heading into

212
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 2: their by so and then they come back and then

213
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: play the Falcons, So I think we'll see, like is darting.

214
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: I turned to PJ Waller, Sam Darnold's gonna be healthy.

215
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: I think Cam's probably gonna play, and I feel like

216
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 2: if Cam's gonna play, he's gonna play it against Atlanta.

217
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 2: I feel like he's probably gonna have a pretty good game, So,

218
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: like we'll see. I'm not starting him over like really

219
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 2: good options. He'd be like a by filling an injury

220
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 2: filling like he was for me when Lamar had the illness.

221
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 2: But yeah, I feel like if he's going to start

222
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 2: against Atlanta, I think he deserves to be. He deserves

223
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 2: to be rostered and played in twelve team leagues for sure.

224
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 2: So not burning Cam Newton just yet because of the

225
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 2: matchup like he's he's always a threat to run for

226
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 2: a couple of touchdowns. And also like the Dolphins defense

227
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 2: is kind of like rediscover something here with Brian Flores

228
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: and like the secondary healthy. So I think maybe we

229
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 2: can talk it up to that. We'll see how the

230
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 2: Giants do against the Dolphins this week.

231
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was someone that I was telling people to

232
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,439
Speaker 3: start because just on paper, the Dolphins had been pretty

233
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 3: bad against fantasy quarterbacks. But I do think recently they

234
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 3: have been better. And Cam Newton is just going to

235
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 3: have those games, like I think you had to have

236
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 3: have that expectation going into that good thing. He's going

237
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 3: to have games where there are of a little bit

238
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 3: of explosions. So hopefully he has not burned for the

239
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 3: rest of the season.

240
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: All Right.

241
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 3: The next guy we want to talk about is Courtland Sutton.

242
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 3: He has seriously struggled since returning from injured reserve. Sorry sorry,

243
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 3: since Jerry Judy returned from injured reserve. Through the first

244
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 3: seven games of the season, Sutton was wide receiver seventeen

245
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 3: and a half PPR. Since Week eight, he's wide receiver

246
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 3: ninety five. Ouch. He caught two or three targets this

247
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 3: week for seventeen yards against the Chargers. Are we burning

248
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 3: Sutton for fantasy?

249
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 1: I don't think we are just yet.

250
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 2: For me at least, I think we look back like

251
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 2: like the two games where Judy's really been healthy, or

252
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 2: like the game before the bye against the Eagles, and

253
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: then of course yesterday's game against the Chargers where no

254
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 2: one really had production in the passing game because Denver

255
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 2: was really able to just dominate defensively and keep the

256
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 2: game on the ground with Javonte Williams and Mike and

257
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 2: Belvin Gordon. So I kind of like Judy had a

258
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 2: bad game yesterday too. I love Judy in the game yesterday.

259
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: It is what it is.

260
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 2: Three for twenty five for Judy Sutton, two for seventeen.

261
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,079
Speaker 2: But against the Eagles, you know they're quarterbacks are good

262
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 2: with Darius laying company, And I think the way you

263
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 2: kind of beat the Eagles is, you know, you beat

264
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: them over the middle of the field, whether it's you know,

265
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,959
Speaker 2: slot receivers, inside receivers or tight ends. With the d

266
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 2: emphasis they put on off ball linebackers in safety, So

267
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: I think the Eagles matchup is one where we can

268
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 2: look at it and say, okay, like it's not like

269
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 2: his quarterback is great also, and like Teddy's okay, but

270
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 2: I mean he's not a great, great quarterback in the NFL.

271
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 2: So I think we can kind of look at that

272
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,319
Speaker 2: and say, Okay, maybe just a bad matchup for Sutton

273
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:25,959
Speaker 2: there against a team that doesn't allow a ton of

274
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 2: production on the perimeter, and then yesterday no one on

275
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 2: Denver had like good production. So yeah, it's concerning. It's

276
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: annoying for sure if you're starting Sutton. But I mean

277
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 2: they're in Kansas City at Arrowhead on Sunday night, and

278
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:36,599
Speaker 2: I think the Chiefs are going to put up a

279
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 2: big number on them, and Denver's going to have to score.

280
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 2: So I wouldn't shy away from starting Portland Sutton on

281
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 2: Sunday night just because he had the bad game yesterday.

282
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Jerry Judy also had the bad game. And

283
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 3: I know you told me before this that you're a

284
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,439
Speaker 3: big fan of his. What is your outlook on him?

285
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 3: As just a bonus question.

286
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, like I think like he should be awesome,

287
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 2: like he is awesome, Like are they going to be

288
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 2: able to get him the ball? You know, he had

289
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 2: nine targets against the Eagles, and I like to think

290
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 2: that's going to be more in line with what Denver's

291
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 2: gonna have to do, and like in games where where

292
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 2: Denver is going to be trailing or like a negative

293
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 2: game script. I think it's like the Jerry Judy Show.

294
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 2: I think he's going to be absolutely awesome. So you know,

295
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 2: they're ten point dogs coming up an arrowhead on Sunday night,

296
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 2: and I think this should be a big time Jerry

297
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: Judy game.

298
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: I just think his talent is going to win out.

299
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 2: Also, I'm not saying he's like more than a wide

300
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 2: receiver three, but I do think he's like in my

301
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 2: in my most competitive league, he is my wide receiver three,

302
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 2: like locked in for the rest of the season.

303
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: So hopefully he ends up working out fair enough.

304
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's always frustrating with those guys that you know

305
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 3: the talent is there and it's sky high and they

306
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 3: are limited by either a system or a quarterback. So

307
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 3: hopefully they can turn things around, all right. The next

308
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: guy we want to talk about, maybe another similar situation,

309
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 3: is DeVonta Smith. He was out targeted by Jalen Rager

310
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 3: and Ques Watkins this week, caught two four targets for

311
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 3: twenty two yards. Part of the blame has to rest

312
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 3: with Jalen Hurts, who had a QBR of seventeen point

313
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 3: three after tossing zero touchdowns and three interceptions. So maybe

314
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 3: this is not his fault, but maybe it's trusting any

315
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 3: Eagles player at this point. So how do you feel

316
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 3: about Smith rest of season? Yeah?

317
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: I think I still like Devonte Smith.

318
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:14,680
Speaker 2: I don't know that he's anything more than like a

319
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 2: wide receiver three moving forward, But I mean, I don't

320
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 2: think you can trust Quaes Watkins or Jalen Rager or

321
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 2: put a lot of stock into them. Babe potentially having

322
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 2: better games than DeVante Smith against the Giants runs into

323
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 2: James Bradbury. Jalen Hurts didn't have a great game. I

324
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 2: think Smith is definitely like unless you're in a ten

325
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:29,839
Speaker 2: team league and you've got a lot better options. I

326
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: feel like Davontae's a really good wide receiver three or

327
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 2: even a flex option. So no, I'm not willing to

328
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 2: put DeVante Smith in the old burn book just yet.

329
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 3: Fair enough, he is definitely that the talent is there,

330
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 3: and it just stinks that he is on the Eagles unfortunately. Yeah,

331
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 3: all right, the next guy we're going to talk about

332
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 3: I had to throw in at least one Giants player

333
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 3: is Taquon Barkley. I get it. He had a down

334
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 3: week last week against the Buccaneers, but had a much

335
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 3: easier matchup this week and didn't deliver thirteen carries for

336
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,559
Speaker 3: forty yards and caught four passes for thirteen yards. Do

337
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 3: you think this ankle injury will improve and maybe like

338
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 3: the change ADOC will help or are we burning Barkley

339
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 3: as a trustworthy RB two this year? Well?

340
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 2: I think like the problem is like if you've got him,

341
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 2: like you have to play him, So like I know

342
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 2: what you're saying. It's almost like do you trust him

343
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 2: or not? But then like also like you have to

344
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 2: play him every single week. So in one league I

345
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 2: traded or a league where we keep a couple of players,

346
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: I traded a third round pick and next year's draft

347
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 2: and Devonte Freeman for Saquon, and the league where I

348
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 2: also have Nick Chubb and AJ Dillon because like, I

349
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: don't know Dylan's going to be like the guy moving

350
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 2: forward obviously with Aaron Jones back, so I needed another

351
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 2: running back. So like the let me roll the dice

352
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: with Saquan here, And I think I bought a little

353
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 2: low at the third rounder, given that he was drafted

354
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 2: at the end of the first round or early second

355
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 2: So I'm concerned if you want to put stock in

356
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 2: the injury report, then I think it's okay to say

357
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 2: that he's still not one hundred percent healthy, given that

358
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 2: he was questionable for this game in addition to being

359
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 2: questionable against the Bucks. So you know, I think we'll

360
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 2: see leading up to the game it's Miami. I mean,

361
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 2: he's he going to be off the injury report, Like

362
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 2: is he going to be listed questionable? It will he

363
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 2: be listed probable? You know, how is he gonna practice

364
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 2: limited fashion or full? So I think maybe we can

365
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 2: look to that and kind of like use that as

366
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 2: a guide because look, i mean, I'm well on record

367
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 2: saying I think like the draft pick was insane, the

368
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 2: draft sake one second overall.

369
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: But he's a good player.

370
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 2: So I'm I don't know if like I have like

371
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 2: an immense trust factor in him now, but I mean

372
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 2: I'm I'm not sitting him like I'm not sitting Saquon Barkley.

373
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm kind of I'm kind of locked in

374
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: at this point.

375
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 3: Pretty tough to sit him and I happen to remember

376
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 3: that draft night watching the draft and really on the

377
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 3: side watching your Twitter feed, where I think you said

378
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 3: you wanted to drink bleach and then the rent ended

379
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 3: with like, at least the ink he's around for you,

380
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 3: which they definitely were not.

381
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: That was That was?

382
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 2: That might have been the Daniel Jones draft all I mean,

383
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 2: I kind of feel this way about about so many

384
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 2: of their drafts recently.

385
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: But yeah, fair.

386
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 3: Enough, fair enough, all right. The last guy I werena

387
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 3: talk about in this segment is Kyle Pitts. He's a

388
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 3: guy that I pumped up a lot this preseason, but

389
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 3: he had another dot of a game caught to six

390
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 3: targets for twenty six yards. It's his fit straight performance

391
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 3: with fewer than nine Fantasy points at half PPR. Are

392
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 3: we burning pits as a locked in tight end one?

393
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: I mean, for as long as Calvin Ridley's not there,

394
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 2: it's kind of really hard to trust him because it's

395
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 2: they have no one else, like, or are you going

396
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: a game plan to stop Russell Gay Jolamede, Zakias, Crederra

397
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 2: Patterson being there helps a little bit. He's running back,

398
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 2: you know, and I'm not saying that derisively. It's just

399
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 2: like he's not he's not running running pass routes. Really,

400
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 2: it's running back. So yeah, if you're an opposing defensive coordinator,

401
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 2: like why wouldn't your game plan be like, let let's

402
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: take the one good pass catcher out of the equation.

403
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't that be what you do? So I mean,

404
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 2: for as long as if you drafted Kyle Pits like

405
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 2: I did, and like I loved him also, like I

406
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 2: thought he was going to be a monster, So I

407
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: feel like we're we are not alone in that take. Also,

408
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 2: like how could you not love Kyle Pits. But the

409
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 2: thought was was that Calvin Ridley was going to be

410
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 2: there take a lot of the pressure off of him,

411
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 2: and Ridley's start there. So I mean, I don't think

412
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: I'm ever sitting Kyle Pitts because like it's not like

413
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey's out there on the wayver wire, you know,

414
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 2: like that's that's not a thing that's happening. So I

415
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 2: don't think I'm ever sitting him. But yeah, he's he's

416
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 2: hard to trust. Like it's I feel like if this

417
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 2: were in a different position, like he might he might

418
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 2: be in the burn book right now, not because he's

419
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 2: not great, but because like they've got no one else

420
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 2: that I think they're really easy to stop. So hopefully,

421
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 2: you know, i'd look Calvin Ridley obviously dealing with mental

422
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 2: health issues, so obviously we hope that he's able to

423
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: get you know, get better and feel better and get

424
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 2: back on the field sooner rather than later and feel

425
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 2: better about things in life. So so it's for him

426
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 2: and also of course for the Falcons and for fantasy

427
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 2: football players selfishly, because Pitt's owners need Calvin Ridley back.

428
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: It's so Ridley owners. But obviously, you know, the important

429
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: thing is that he gets better.

430
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 3: Absolutely, this offense looks so dysfunctional. I saw Matt Ryan

431
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 3: throw one of the worst passes I think I've ever

432
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 3: seen this season. So and there's a lot of competition

433
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 3: for that. So a lot of things are not working

434
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 3: on that team right now. But hopefully that does not

435
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,959
Speaker 3: come at Pit's expense for the rest of the season.

436
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 3: All right, that'll do it for the burn buck. Our

437
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 3: next quick segment and we'll try to run through very quickly,

438
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 3: is called full send or that's cap which is sort

439
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 3: of the opposite of that one. So full send means

440
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,679
Speaker 3: like you are going for it, you love this person,

441
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 3: and then that's cap means like it's not real.

442
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 2: So I'm really old. I'm really old, so like I'm

443
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 2: not like on like these expressions. So I was good

444
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 2: that you gave me like that little I've seen like

445
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 2: no cap on like Instagram, and I've had no idea

446
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 2: what it means.

447
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: So okay, so now that.

448
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 3: Means like crap, like not yeah, like the yes. So

449
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,479
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you five players whose values are on

450
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 3: the rise, and I want to know if you're sending

451
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 3: it on this player or if it's cap So the

452
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 3: first player we're going to talk about is Mac Jones.

453
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 3: I for one, did not have Mac Jones being the

454
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 3: best QP out of those class on my twenty twenty

455
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 3: one Big O card. But wow, obviously I don't mean

456
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 3: that from necessarily a talent standpoint or anything like that,

457
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 3: but he has looked pretty good. I mean posted his

458
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 3: best game of the season against the Titans this week

459
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 3: twenty three of thirty two for three hundred and ten yards,

460
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 3: two touchdowns and zero interceptions. Are we sending it on

461
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 3: Jones as a viable streaming quarterback where it's trusting kind

462
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 3: of any of the rookie quarterbacks this year.

463
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 2: Cap Yeah, I don't know if you can really trust

464
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 2: any of them on a week to week basis. Like

465
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 2: I wish that we could kind of trust justin fields,

466
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 2: Like I wish we could try to trust Trey Lance.

467
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 2: But like, those are the two guys that I was

468
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 2: kind of like really exposed to, and like, I don't

469
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 2: I don't really think we can trust either of them now,

470
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 2: you know, kind of looking at the Patriots schedule coming

471
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 2: up here, you know, they obviously they play the They're

472
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 2: in Buffalo coming up on Monday night, then they're at

473
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 2: the Colts, then they host Buffalo, then they have a

474
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: decent matchup against the against the Jaguars, and then they

475
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 2: go to Miami. So what Jacksonville, I guess would be

476
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 2: Week seventeen, right, so they would be the Fantasy super

477
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 2: Bowl this year. So I mean, I guess you can

478
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 2: maybe trust him there in the Fantasy super Bowl. But

479
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,439
Speaker 2: I mean, are you really going to trust back Jones

480
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 2: in the in the Fantasy super Bowl?

481
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: Like I'm not going to.

482
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 2: But Jacksonville's got a pretty good run defense, So I

483
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 2: mean it could stand to reason that the Patriots just

484
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 2: gonna throw it on them. But until then, I mean

485
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 2: to Davius White being out is a big deal for

486
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:49,919
Speaker 2: Buffalo with the torn acl but it's not like the

487
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: Patriots have like a true alpha number one receiver.

488
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: So it's like, what are we gonna do with Davis?

489
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 2: I put him on like Jacobe Myers or like Nelson

490
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 2: Agil or so I don't know that like it really

491
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 2: hurts them in this instance more than a against other teams.

492
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: But I mean it's hard to trust back against the Colts,

493
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 2: a rookie quarterback against the zone defense like Tom Brady

494
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 2: picks that defense apart, and Mac Jones not sure. Two

495
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 2: games coming up against the Bills, Yeah, I think where

496
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: is it?

497
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: Capper? No cap? I would say, ye, I like go Capper, Yeah,

498
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: A cap on Mac.

499
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 3: Jones fair enough. Yeah, It's going to definitely be tough

500
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 3: to trust him because even in previous games where he

501
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 3: looked good on the field, he wasn't putting up a

502
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,239
Speaker 3: ton of yardage or even a lot of touchdowns. So

503
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 3: it's not It's one of those things that he is

504
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 3: a at least decent NFL quarterback but not reliable for

505
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 3: fantasy production. Week to week. All right, the ians guvern

506
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 3: to talk about is Odell Beckham junior. He tied Cooper

507
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 3: Cup with ten targets, caught five passes for eighty one yards,

508
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 3: and a touchdown with Robert Woods done for the season.

509
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 3: Are we going full send on obj as a viable

510
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 3: wide receiver two or.

511
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: Is that cap Yeah?

512
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: I would say more like full send on Obja is

513
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 2: like a wide receiver three or like a flex I

514
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 2: would say, I don't know if I feel good about

515
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 2: him as a wide receiver too. I mean it was

516
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 2: worth noting they were trailing in the game, so obviously

517
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 2: Stafford throwing on every play, which helps Beckham get to

518
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 2: the ten targets. He also had the long touchdown. I

519
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: mean I did bet his yards over Prop yesterday. I

520
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,159
Speaker 2: do think kind of like as the season goes on

521
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 2: and he gets more practice reps under his belt, like

522
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 2: I do think he's a quality like wide receiver three.

523
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can get to.

524
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 2: Wide receiver two because I still feel like Van Jefferson's

525
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 2: gonna get maybe more production than him and obviously comes

526
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 2: there as well. So I'm a send on Beckham. I

527
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 2: don't know if I'm a send quite to the level

528
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 2: of like wide receiver two. But I definitely think that

529
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 2: he's a week two week's fantasy starter though at the

530
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 2: wide receiver position.

531
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 3: I love to watch this Rams team just go all

532
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 3: in on this season, so we will see if they

533
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,640
Speaker 3: can kind of get something going.

534
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 1: For the rest they they said Stafford for a couple

535
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: of weeks and get him help.

536
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 3: Really really that is spicy, all right. The next guy

537
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 3: we're gonna talk about is Chavonte Williams. He's the guy

538
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 3: that's like so popular on Fantasy Twitter. He was out

539
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 3: carried by Melvin Gordon in this game, but also saw

540
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 3: more yards and finished with the batter. Fantasy Day, Williams

541
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 3: had fourteen carries for fifty four yards in the touch

542
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 3: and caught three passes for fifty seven yards, so a

543
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 3: very strong game. Are we going full send on Williams

544
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 3: as an RB two rest of season or is trusting

545
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 3: him while Gordon is their cap?

546
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 1: Yeah?

547
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: I would say, you know, RB two flex option, but

548
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: I mean it's he's difficult to trust con like if

549
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 2: you really really need him. I would say he's hard

550
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 2: to trust us because Melvin Gordon's there, and I think

551
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 2: the thing that frustrates fantasy football players, is that we

552
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 2: all watch the games, like we know Javonte Williams is better,

553
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 2: but for some reason, like Pat Shermer and Vic Fangio

554
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 2: decide to play Melvin Gordon and give him more carries.

555
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 2: So it's one of those situations that's like really annoying

556
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 2: for like it's it's annoying in real life too. I

557
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 2: would think if you're a Broncos fan, you'd rather see

558
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 2: Javonte get the carries. But we're kind of at the

559
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 2: mercy of the coaching staff. So I mean, I guess

560
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 2: like we've kind of all been waiting all season for

561
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 2: Javonte just to become the guy, and I guess like

562
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 2: it could theoretically happen any week, but then like the

563
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 2: game will be played and it doesn't happen. So yeah,

564
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 2: I mean, like I think he's certainly like a viable

565
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 2: slick starting option. It is like an RB two or option,

566
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 2: so maybe like somewhere in the middle, but I don't

567
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:04,679
Speaker 2: know if he's going to reach kind of like the

568
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 2: dizzying heights that I think a lot of us hoped

569
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 2: for from him this season.

570
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: Not his fault, I would say the fault of this

571
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: coaching staff fair enough.

572
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is a guy that I'm very high on

573
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 3: for next year. I think that'll definitely be his year

574
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 3: once Gordon is out of this contract. All right, the

575
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 3: next thing we're going to talk about is Dontrell Hilliard.

576
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 3: This backfield is just messy, like I love that. A

577
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 3: few weeks ago we were arguing about is it Adrian

578
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 3: Peterson or who do I want Jeremy McNichols out of

579
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 3: this backfield? Who should I put all my waiver of

580
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 3: money on? And the answer was neither, because Adrian Peterson

581
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 3: is back stating on his couch and this guy Hilliard,

582
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 3: who was just promoted for the practice squad last week,

583
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,439
Speaker 3: has now had two strong weeks in a row, and

584
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 3: he had twelve carries this week for one hundred and

585
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 3: thirty one yards in a touchdown, was behind Donte Foreman

586
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 3: and carries. So are you going full send on Hilliard

587
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 3: as a viable fantasy asset or you think trusting these

588
00:23:58,720 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 3: Titans running backs is kept.

589
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 2: I think if I had to trust one of them,

590
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 2: it would be Foreman because I think he profiles most

591
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:05,679
Speaker 2: in like the Derrick Henry role, So I think he

592
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 2: would be the guy I would trust the most. I

593
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 2: think it's interesting, so I'm not ready to like I'll

594
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 2: go somewhere in the middle here, not trying to waffle,

595
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 2: but when McNichols comes back, like m McNichols is gonna

596
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 2: get work as like the pass catching running back because

597
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 2: he's the best pass catcher of these guys. But Hilliar

598
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 2: it's also been goodt points with Cleveland and kind of

599
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 2: this role as well. So my senses is that McNichols

600
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 2: coming back doesn't hurt Foreman as much as it hurts Hilliard.

601
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 2: And I think I think all three are going to

602
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 2: see work. I think McNichols and Hilliard are gonna split time,

603
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 2: and Foreman's role is gonna say stay stable, So I

604
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 2: think Hilliard's a hold right now. Kind of let's see

605
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 2: what happens when McNichols is back and see what this

606
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 2: offense looks like. And Foreman for me is the is

607
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 2: the number one option. And I think the hope is

608
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 2: you know that Julio and aj are both back, you

609
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 2: know for the Mike right more, we're in the heart

610
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 2: of the Fantasy playoffs, and like it may open things

611
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 2: up potentially for these guys to have big games.

612
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, this Titans team is so so binged up.

613
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,360
Speaker 3: I was just gonna ask you to follow up, did

614
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 3: you how much exposure did you have to Derrick Henry?

615
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: Literally zero?

616
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 2: And like that that's not necessarily because I was like

617
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 2: fading Derrick Henry, like it just worked out where.

618
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: I didn't get it.

619
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 2: And I also like I was taking other players like

620
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 2: ahead of him, like early on in drafts when I

621
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 2: want to had the opportunity to, I do have. I

622
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 2: had a ton of exposure to AJ Brown, and AJ

623
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 2: Brown has been an absolute disaster obviously this season. So

624
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 2: that's I had no Julio, I had literally no Henry,

625
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 2: and I play in double digit leagues, but I had

626
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 2: a ton of AJ Brown, and Brown has absolutely sunk me.

627
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 3: And it's really Ryan Tannehill that sunk you. I think

628
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 3: very disappointing because he was QB six last year in fantasy.

629
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 3: All Right, the final guy we're going to talk about

630
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 3: is Rob Gronkowski. He has been solid since returning from injury.

631
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 3: Led the team in every receiving category. This game, cost

632
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,719
Speaker 3: seven of ten targets for one hundred and twenty three yards.

633
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 3: The first three weeks of the season, he was tightened

634
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,239
Speaker 3: two and half PPR. That was before the injury. So

635
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 3: now that he's pseudo healthy, are we back on the

636
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,919
Speaker 3: Gronk train as an elite tight end one for fan

637
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 3: or does his injury history kind of make that cap well.

638
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 2: I think he's definitely like an elite tight end one

639
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 2: just because of like the scarcity at the position.

640
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: It's like who else you would you rather play Gronk

641
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: or Kyle Pits?

642
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 2: Right, You'd much rather play Gronk, which sucks because like

643
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 2: I think Kyle Pitts is better and like I have,

644
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 2: I have a lot more Kyle Pits But uh yeah,

645
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 2: I think Gronk is an elite tight end one because

646
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 2: of the position. But I mean, like I also think

647
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 2: when Antonio Brown comes back, I think that's probably bad

648
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 2: news for Gronk and also like for Mike Kevin think

649
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 2: PRIs godwin and just for you know, the bucks, you know,

650
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 2: especially early on in the season when everyone was healthy,

651
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 2: like when we would do player props on you better

652
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 2: you bet trying to decide, like, hey, who's.

653
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: Gonna have a big game.

654
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,360
Speaker 2: It's you could make the case for any of these

655
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 2: guys any week because they're all awesome and their quarterbacks

656
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 2: the goat, so you know it's you know, so yes, like, yes.

657
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: You trust Gronk.

658
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 2: You start Gronk every week because who the hell else

659
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 2: are you going to start, like like a durham smythe

660
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 2: like who are you starting at?

661
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 1: Tight?

662
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 2: And Noah fans, You know, these these guys are all

663
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 2: hit or miss, like they could have big games. You know,

664
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 2: I think you feel more confident in Gronk. But I

665
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 2: think once Antonio Brown comes back, like I think it

666
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 2: limits Gronk ceilings.

667
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean he can't have a similar game to what

668
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,360
Speaker 1: he had against.

669
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 2: The Colts, but I think it's tough to feel as

670
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: good like without Brown there as you do like when

671
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 2: Brown is actually in the lineup.

672
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think managers that were able to hold on

673
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:11,120
Speaker 3: to him through this whole injury will definitely be rewarded

674
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 3: moving forward. All right, And if we have nine more

675
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 3: rapid fire questions, let's try to do it to get

676
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 3: you out of here in time. Question thirteen is name

677
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 3: one player you just can't quit or you always find

678
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 3: yourself making excuses for us. So for me that is

679
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 3: Joe Mixon. And obviously this is mix a year, but

680
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 3: like previously it was, it was just it was painful

681
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 3: to constantly make excuses for that guy.

682
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: Oh man, that's a great question. I don't know.

683
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 2: I play, I'm in a lot of leagues, so I

684
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 2: feel like this could potentially be like a lot of

685
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 2: different players.

686
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: I feel like I've got so much Tyler Lockett.

687
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 2: Every single year, and like it's.

688
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: Not really his fault.

689
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 2: I mean, there are some games where he's not healthy,

690
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,640
Speaker 2: and then like Russ doesn't play, and then like Russ

691
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 2: comes back and again at the broad side of the barn,

692
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 2: I would say, I guess it's kind of I guess

693
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 2: it's Tyler Locket. Chase Edmonds to a degree as well.

694
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 2: One thing I've given up on the Chase Edmunds. I'll

695
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 2: say Tyler Lockett fair enough.

696
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 3: I do have a lot of Tyler Lockett, So I

697
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 3: feel your pain. Predict when the Giants will win their

698
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:13,360
Speaker 3: next Super Bowl? I don't know, not soon, Like give

699
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 3: me a year roughly.

700
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: I don't know.

701
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 2: Like, uh, let's let's say that the Joe Judge error

702
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 2: e E R R O R not E R a

703
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 2: last for another I don't know. Let's say three years

704
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 2: and then like feasibly like another like three years for another,

705
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 2: like like organization to build or like another like GM

706
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 2: group to.

707
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 1: Build a new team. I'll say at least at least

708
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,360
Speaker 1: five years from now at least.

709
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 3: Fair enough, give us one Giants player you think is

710
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 3: underrated for fantasy.

711
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 2: Can we really say, like, can we say Tony's underrated

712
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 2: or does that like.

713
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 3: I guess you could say Tony's underrated. I mean I

714
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 3: feel like he's out there and a lot of leads now,

715
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 3: especially with the injury.

716
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say I would.

717
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 2: Actually, I think that's a good point actually, because I

718
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 2: don't like like he flashes and then he gets hurt

719
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 2: and then he doesn't play, and the gob didn't play yesterday.

720
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 2: Tony is obviously the easy one. When Tony's out, Garius

721
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 2: Slayton actually gets tons of work, So I would never

722
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 2: want to start Slayton. But I actually feel like, like

723
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 2: if Shepherd's out and Tony's out, like Slayton's gonna get

724
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 2: deep shots down the field. I'll can he catch the ball?

725
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 2: So I would say Tony and Slayton would be my

726
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 2: two choices.

727
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 3: Fair enough. Do you have any thoughts on Evan Ingram.

728
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 3: Do you think he's ever going to be fantasy viable?

729
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: Not for the Giants, maybe on his next team, fair enough.

730
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 3: Speaking of underrated players, was Choe Flacco ever elite? Yes

731
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 3: or no?

732
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: Yes? Of course. Yeah.

733
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 2: I mean I don't know that he's like first ballot

734
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 2: Hall of Famer, but I mean he outplayed Tom Brady

735
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 2: and back to back AFC Championship games and like was

736
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 2: the best player in the playoffs the year that the

737
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 2: Ravens won a Super Bowl.

738
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, people are just people just like to hate,

739
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: just to hate.

740
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 2: You didn't throw fifty touchdowns in the regular says, shut up,

741
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: Like you know what ELIODI did? He beat Brady in

742
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 2: one AFC championship game in Foxborough, and then the previous

743
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 2: year they should have beaten him if not for stupid

744
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 2: kicker Lee Evans dropping a pass in the end zone.

745
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: So yeah, Flacco absolutely with that. I'm not even a

746
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:57,239
Speaker 2: Ravens fan.

747
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: I don't care. I'm just like I watched the games.

748
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: He was pretty awesome.

749
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 3: Next up here on the Fantasy Flex is our elite

750
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 3: entry segment. So today I'm going to look at four

751
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 3: NFL Week thirteen quarterback plays on Prize Fix. The first

752
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 3: play I like is Mac Jones under two hundred and

753
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 3: fifteen and a half passing yards on the road in Buffalo.

754
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 3: There was no universe. I was not going to throw

755
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 3: a Mac Jones under into this one, and it's honestly

756
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 3: a good thing that we took last week off because

757
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 3: our Mac Jones under his streak would have been broken.

758
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 3: We are currently on a five game streak of hitting these,

759
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 3: and I like this one to hit as well. Jones

760
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 3: is coming off of this best game to date, in

761
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 3: which he completed twenty three of thirty two attempts for

762
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 3: three hundred and ten yards and a pair of touchdowns.

763
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 3: That said, I expect him to come back down to

764
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 3: earth against Buffalo, whose pass defense is top notch and

765
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 3: has allowed just one hundred and seventy eight point five

766
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 3: passing yards per game, the second fewest in the NFL

767
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 3: behind Carolina. The Bills have only allowed two passers all

768
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 3: year to crush the two hundred and twenty yard mark,

769
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 3: and those were Patrick Mahomes and Mike White. What an

770
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 3: odd duo, by the way. But the Patriot Stephens has

771
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 3: also been super solid, so I just expect this game

772
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 3: to be run heavy and low scoring. The next play

773
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 3: that I like is Matt Stafford over two hundred and

774
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 3: seventy and a half passing yards at home versus the Jaguars.

775
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 3: This is a huge number, though it seems a little

776
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 3: low against the Jaguars. There is a chance though that

777
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 3: people that said this number think that this game just

778
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 3: gets out of hand and Stafford doesn't have to pass

779
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 3: too much. Still, he definitely bounced back after a bad

780
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 3: couple of weeks and had three hundred and two passing

781
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 3: yards a three touchdowns in one interception against Green Bay.

782
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 3: Matt Ryan obviously struggled against this team last week, but

783
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 3: also that's Matt Ryan, and he has no weapons that

784
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 3: are really healthy, you know, Calvin Redley, nothing, so that's

785
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 3: a major deal. Stafford obviously has Cooper Cup and now

786
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 3: he has Oyeall Blackham junior, who looked fantastic last game.

787
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 3: He's also tossing the ball a lot to Van Jefferson,

788
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 3: who's also looked really good. So I really like Stafford

789
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 3: to hit the over here. Another player that I like

790
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 3: is Carson Wentz over two hundred twenty and a half

791
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 3: passing yards on the road in Houston. He definitely bounced

792
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 3: back after a couple of weird games and threw for

793
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 3: three hundred and six yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions

794
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 3: against the Bucks. He gets another positive matchup against the Texans,

795
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 3: so I'm not sure why this number is so low.

796
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 3: He would have crested the over in eight of twelve

797
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 3: games this year. Was held to just two hundred and

798
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 3: twenty three passing yards in Week six in these two

799
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 3: teams first meeting of the season. But that said, I

800
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 3: think this Colts team has gotten better overall. I know

801
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 3: a lot of that is Jonathan Taylor, but Carson Wentz

802
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 3: has looked pretty strong, so I am gonna say that

803
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 3: he goes over this in Houston. The final play that

804
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 3: I like is a Lamar Jackson over two hundred and

805
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 3: twenty zero point five passing yards on the road in Pittsburgh.

806
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 3: I think this is a huge overreaction to Sunday Night's

807
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 3: stinker on national television, in which Jackson threw for one

808
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty five yards one touchdown, foyer deceptions, which

809
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 3: was obviously his worst game of the season. He would

810
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 3: have only missed the over on this number once prior

811
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 3: to this week, though, is averaging two hundred and seventy

812
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 3: two passing yards a per game. Pittsburgh has been kind

813
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 3: of stingy against the past that they have. Alara allowed

814
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 3: two hundred and thirty four point five passing yards per

815
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 3: game this year, so I think the odds are the

816
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 3: Jackson smashes be over all right. That is our elite

817
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 3: entry today, going with Matt Jones under two hundred fifteen

818
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 3: and a half passing yards on the road in Buffalo,

819
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 3: Matt Stafford over two hundred and seventy and a half

820
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 3: passing yards at home versus the Jaguars, Carson Wentz over

821
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 3: two hundred twenty and a half passing yards on the

822
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 3: road in Houston, and Lamar Jackson over two hundred twenty

823
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 3: and a half passing yards on the road in Pittsburgh.

836
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 3: with Nick Costuves looking forward to twenty twenty two because

837
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,839
Speaker 3: maybe this may not be the Giants here. What do

838
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 3: the GEMA need to address during this year's draft?

839
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: Well, they need to fire everybody.

840
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 2: So it's almost like I don't even care, like what

841
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:22,720
Speaker 2: else happens, like unless like I want.

842
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:23,399
Speaker 1: Joe Judge out.

843
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 2: Looks like Gentelman's going to be out, and then like

844
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 2: we can kind of go from there, Like that's what

845
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 2: I don't even care, Like, I guess, like if we're

846
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 2: actually going to talk, like the offensive line still sucks somehow.

847
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 2: It's like four years into this trying to fix it.

848
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 2: So they definitely need offensive line. I actually think like

849
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 2: the roster's not terrible, Like I think that they've got pieces.

850
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 2: They got to get a pass rusher and they yeah,

851
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 2: they need up on the offensive line of the defensive line.

852
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 2: I guess you can maybe roll with Daniel Jones for

853
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 2: like another year.

854
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 1: I guess. I mean, I don't know, Like the team

855
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: is a disaster, Like they suck.

856
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 2: They have the pass rush isn't there, and they can't

857
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 2: protect the quarterback, you can't win. So yeah, I don't

858
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm not trying to be negative, but

859
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 2: I just think they have lots of issues.

860
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,280
Speaker 3: I understand. Yeah, offensive line definitely feels like a major

861
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 3: hole for them. That's just obviously been a pain point

862
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 3: for so so long. So hopefully they can get that

863
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:10,399
Speaker 3: right at some point. Who should Manager's top waiver ad

864
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 3: beats this week?

865
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 1: Oh man? Maybe Hilliard?

866
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 2: Honestly, maybe like roll the dice on Dontrell Hilliard to

867
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 2: see if he can kind of give you give you

868
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 2: that kind of production moving forward.

869
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, he's definitely a guy that I think

870
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 3: a lot of people will be targeting and give me

871
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 3: one player do you think is prime?

872
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 2: Al So also also I kind of like, I don't

873
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 2: know if just because I was just looking at like

874
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 2: the scores with Michael Carter at for a couple more weeks,

875
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 2: like I really like Ty Johnson And I don't know

876
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,719
Speaker 2: like how many leagues Ty Johnson's available in, but I

877
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,280
Speaker 2: think he's Yeah, I think he's better than Tevin Coleman.

878
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 2: So I mean, and I don't think any competitive league

879
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 2: I'm in Ty Johnson's out there on the waiver wire,

880
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 2: So like, if you're out there in the league and

881
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 2: Ty Johnson's out there, like I would definitely pick him.

882
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 3: Up fair enough. Okay, So give me one player you

883
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 3: think is prime for a big fantasy season next year.

884
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 1: I mean there are so many.

885
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,720
Speaker 2: There are like a lot of really good options prime

886
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 2: for a big season next year, you know, I think, well,

887
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 2: like the fine big Like are we talking like like

888
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 2: a gigantic season, like a monster season.

889
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 3: Either like someone that's gonna take a like someone that

890
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 3: will probably take a big step forward, maybe like a

891
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 3: rookie that's going to take a have a year two

892
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:24,800
Speaker 3: breakout or something like that, or cordial, like a cordial Patterson,

893
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,439
Speaker 3: if you could predict something like that.

894
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Cornira Patterson is such like a unique case. Obviously.

895
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 1: I love Jalen Waddle. I think he is such a stud.

896
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 1: We'll see kind of.

897
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 2: How he finishes the season. Had a great game yesterday

898
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,359
Speaker 2: against the Panthers. Obviously, I wonder like what round he's

899
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 2: going to get drafted in next year. I almost feel

900
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 2: like he should be like like a third round pick

901
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,800
Speaker 2: next year, potentially, Like I think They're like, the talent

902
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 2: is tantalizing.

903
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 1: So I think he's awesome. So I would say Jalen Wandle.

904
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I could definitely see him going in that third

905
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 3: to fifth round where there are a lot of receivers

906
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 3: that usually.

907
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 2: Probably closer to the fifth round to be fair. But yeah,

908
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 2: but I but I do think that he could be

909
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 2: a monster next year. Elijah Elijah More also, if he

910
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 2: can show that he has a report with Zach Wilson,

911
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 2: I think could be great.

912
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 3: Elijah Moore is someone that I am super super high on.

913
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 3: All Right, how many attempts would it take you to

914
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 3: make an extra point?

915
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 2: I was really good at soccer, so I mean how

916
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:20,839
Speaker 2: many practice attempts do I get?

917
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 3: I think that that counts?

918
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I don't know.

919
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 2: Ten.

920
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,879
Speaker 3: That's fair, that's that's impressive. I could not make it.

921
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 3: You could give me one million dollars to make one,

922
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 3: and I'm sure that I couldn't.

923
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,839
Speaker 1: Oh yeah you could, you could, you could make an egg.

924
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: I'm an extra point?

925
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,879
Speaker 2: Well actually well it's well the extra point now it's

926
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 2: not an eighteen yard it's a thirty yarder, right, thirty

927
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 2: plus yarder? Yeah, maybe more than ten? Maybe maybe like

928
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 2: twenty five, I would say fair enough.

929
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 3: I did ask for a bunch of people outside of

930
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 3: the home run derby how many pitches it would take

931
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 3: them to hit a juice ball out of course field

932
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,760
Speaker 3: batting practice pitches, and the range of answers was hilarious.

933
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 3: Some Boston guy just said like two, you know, one

934
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,320
Speaker 3: practice and I'm knocking it out of the park, and

935
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 3: I'm like, good for you. All right. Finally, if you

936
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,759
Speaker 3: have one cardinal rule to tell someone just getting into

937
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 3: fantasy this year, what would it be.

938
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 2: Oh, that's a great question. When cardinal rule, Yeah, like

939
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 2: stay on your p's and q's. Like I mean, like

940
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 2: it actually is kind of like I don't know, like

941
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 2: for me, it's a lot of fun. So like I

942
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 2: kind of embrace kind of like the grind of fantasy football.

943
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:25,920
Speaker 2: But I think like a way to look at it

944
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 2: is like, you know, I do a couple like bigger

945
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 2: money leagues, and I'm not saying like these are like

946
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 2: mass like like like five thousand dollars buy in, but

947
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 2: leagues were like you could win like a nice amount

948
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,439
Speaker 2: of money. And in those leagues, I'm like the one

949
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 2: person that like really pays attention, like you look at

950
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 2: the waiver wire. In some of these leagues that I'm

951
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 2: in with, people pay a lot of money to being

952
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,879
Speaker 2: like you wouldn't believe the names that are out there,

953
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 2: Like you actually wouldn't look at us an opportunity to

954
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 2: make money, Like and it's around the holidays too, where

955
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 2: like you win in like January and you get paid

956
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 2: and like it pays for Like this has happened in the

957
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 2: last two years where I've had fantasy leagues literally pay

958
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 2: for like all the Christmas gifts that I bought people

959
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 2: get awesome. Yeah, So I mean, like I would say,

960
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 2: seek out like people like like Samantha, seek out people

961
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 2: that know what they're doing, and like follow that advice

962
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 2: and like actually put in waiver claims and pay attention

963
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 2: and make sure that make sure that that names that

964
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 2: are on the waiver wire, like if they shouldn't be there,

965
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 2: pick them up on your team, Like if you put

966
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 2: that that level of effort in and like if you're

967
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,760
Speaker 2: in a really competitive league, like I'm in the leagues

968
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 2: for the most part where everybody does that, and it

969
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 2: makes it a lot of fun obviously, because like your

970
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:28,879
Speaker 2: coipedia against people that kind of feel the same way

971
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:30,439
Speaker 2: you do and kind of have the same level of care.

972
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 2: But I'm like, you get into a league and like

973
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 2: there are people that don't care as much.

974
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 1: As you do.

975
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 2: Like you, at the very least, you will get into

976
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,919
Speaker 2: the playoffs, like one hundred percent. You may not win

977
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,439
Speaker 2: because it's luck based sometimes, but you will get into

978
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 2: the postseason. So I would say, you know, place your

979
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 2: waiver claims, stay on top of injury reports, just pay attention,

980
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 2: and you don't even This is a great thing about

981
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 2: like fantasy football and like sports betting also where we're

982
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 2: now at a time where you.

983
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 1: Don't even have to do the work. People like Samantha

984
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: do it for you. People like me do it for you.

985
00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 2: Like find people that you trust in respect and and

986
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,799
Speaker 2: let them do it for you, and put and put

987
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,920
Speaker 2: the time and the effort in because it will pay dividends.

988
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 2: Because I'll tell you, I'm in the leagues with people

989
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,919
Speaker 2: that don't pay attention and I dominate those leagues because

990
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 2: I do.

991
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's a great point. The investment is

992
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 3: so worth it because especially because with the wave of

993
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 3: legal betting being into fantasy lends itself so much to

994
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 3: player props and things like that. So if you're in

995
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 3: tune to all these things, if you know these things,

996
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 3: you can also you know, frozen props in as well
