1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly, a production of I Heart Radio. 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,560 Speaker 1: Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from my Heart Radio, 3 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy football advice 4 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 1: and speculation and whatever stupid stuff they decided to drop 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: into the show. Now, here's your host. It's Fantasy Football Weekly. 6 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: I am Paul Charchy and my co host today Matt Harrison. Hello. Man, 7 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: we've kept Brian away for two weeks. I know it's 8 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: hard to do that. It's hard to do, but we've 9 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: managed to pull it off. Amazing. Yeah. I don't know 10 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: if that's good or bad listeners, but less Brian the normal. 11 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: He's got the coolest voice out of all of us, 12 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: out of all four of us. I mean that, you know, 13 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: the deep baritone, and he's got some great analysis to 14 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 1: go with it. So great might be a little okay, 15 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: so some slightly above average analysis. Let's go with that. 16 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: Let's go with that. So last week, Scott and I 17 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: get done recording the podcast, uploading the podcast, and just 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: as it's hitting everybody and Scott's long gone from my house, 19 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: then the all the all the dominoes fall and we 20 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: have massive news, including um, the Deshaun Watson trade, gets 21 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: fine text like did you guys get the Watson thing 22 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 1: in because it was happening like right when you were 23 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: so the whole thing got blown up. You know, it's 24 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: the off season. Times time is not of It's like 25 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: every day counts quite as much. And we're recording this 26 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: on a Friday in the off season. And Watson was 27 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: introduced today to the Cleveland media. So it all comes 28 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: back around right now. I listened to the press conference. 29 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: Cleveland media would Adam pretty hard. Yeah I was. I 30 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: was glad you got you haven't have to have accountability 31 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: in these situations, and you know, clearly he had done. 32 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: He had he had been coached up on what to 33 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: say because he had kept hitting the same talking points 34 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: over and over again. But Cleveland media was pretty aggressive 35 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: with him, which I thought was appropriate card questions in 36 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: this situation. Yeah, why not? Well, and he signed a 37 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: big five year contract and uh so he's gonna be 38 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: there for a while, presumably, well they're gonna pay him 39 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: for a while, no matter what. It's all guaranteed two 40 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: hundred thirty million dollars. Think about it this way. Deshaun 41 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: Watson was on the Texans and they traded away all 42 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: their first round picks for Laramie tunsl And now he 43 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: goes to the Browns and they traded away all their 44 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: first round picks for Shaun Watson. He's on this team 45 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: that's never gonna have a first round pick like his 46 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: entire career. So this is gonna be pretty interesting to 47 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: see how this pans out. There was an epic trade 48 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: in hockey twenty five is years ago involving Peter Forsberg, 49 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: Um and Um the key player went to the Flyers, 50 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: and it involved like eight players and a bunch of 51 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: draft picks, and somebody at one point figured out all 52 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: the butterfly effect of that, and years and years later 53 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: and it ended up being like thousand players that ended 54 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: up impacted by this one trade years later, probably something 55 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: similar to the Vikings and herschel Walker back in but 56 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: it was way more far reaching, I think. But yes, Weld, 57 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: I don't not to see if I can quit google it. 58 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: Peter Forsberg, Well, while you're googling that, I mean, I 59 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: guess I'll note that Amari Cooper probably gets a little 60 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: bit of an upgrade here. Um. He also is seeing 61 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: a hundred vacated targets from the Browns from Landry and 62 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: Beckham and Austin Hooper last year. So uh, being the 63 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: top target in the Deshaun Watson led offense has been 64 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: a good thing to be for the past few years. 65 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: So uh, Amari Cooper is going to bump up a 66 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: few spots in a DP, especially if Cleveland doesn't replace 67 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: some of that talent, and maybe the second round of 68 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: the draft or throughout free agency. I mean it's David 69 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: and Joku, and it's Harrison Bryant and Kareem Hunt and 70 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: tight ends running backs and Amari Cooper and Donovan People's Jones, 71 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: who's kind of sneaky. Well, we thought he was last year, 72 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: and he clearly could not step up and assume the 73 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: rule of a I don't even say go to receiver. Sure, 74 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: I don't even alpha receiver. Domind People's Jones couldn't even 75 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: be a beta receiver. The leading Browns receiver had five 76 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: hundred seventy four yards. And now is that a Baker 77 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: Mayfield problem. Well, a little bit of culpability, but I 78 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: don't think a lot. I don't think as much as 79 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: as you might. I mean, it's interesting because the other 80 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: domino to fall here is Baker Mayfield right. Um, the 81 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: Browns still are holding onto him, trying to trade him 82 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: right now, but he's on his fifth year of the contract, 83 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: so it's it's kind of a higher price and he's 84 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: probably looking for an extension right now. So he's trying 85 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: to find a team that will take him, and everybody 86 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: kind of lined up their quarterback now it's really Carolina 87 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: who there's not interest in Carolina from what I hear Seattle, 88 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: maybe that's about it. There's there's not many other teams 89 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: that are really looking for a quarterback of his caliber 90 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, there'sh for Mayfield. If you're in dynas, 91 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: do you hold or do you sell on Mayfield right now? 92 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: You'd obviously be selling it like maybe the all time 93 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: low right now. So if if you got a deep 94 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: enough roster and you can hold him, I think you 95 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: just hold Baker Mayfield, see what happens and maybe at 96 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: the advent of him getting traded to somebody, Yeah, that's 97 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: when the value peaks a little bit and then you 98 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: start moving him. I think there's I think there's a 99 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: decent chance we haven't heard the last of meaningful play 100 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: from Baker Mayfield, one way or another. Some quarterback needy 101 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: team is going to give him a chance. Baker Mayfield 102 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: has some talent. He played last year hurt constantly. Armon Harness, 103 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: I don't think we've quite heard the end of Baker 104 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: Mayfield right now. Yeah, I agree. I think I think 105 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: he ends up. He ends up some place doing something 106 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 1: that ultimately ultimately ends up helping him. By the way, 107 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: Eric Lindross because the Eric Linder Drows trade that was 108 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: twenty six years ago, alright, um ended up forever changing 109 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: a couple of different a couple of different teams, the 110 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: Flyers and the Nordics, where the teams involved became the 111 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: Avalanche became the Avalanche, and then they went out. The 112 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: Avalanche with all the equity they got from the Flyers 113 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: ended up winning the Stanley Cup with guys like Peter 114 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 1: Forsberg and Ron Hextall and Mike Greeky and Steve du 115 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: Shane and a bunch of others. Patrick Waugh he that 116 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: Patrick Ole was on that team, not part of the trade, 117 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: but he was. He was on the team back then. Yeah, 118 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: that was all Those are great teams. Okay, continuing about 119 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: where were you this week when the Tyreek Hill news 120 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: just started coming down? Because it seemed like it was 121 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: out of nowhere, just a surprise. Yeah. And part of 122 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: the part of the fun of the whole Tyreek thing 123 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: is from the time that the press started reporting that 124 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: Tyreek could be traded to the time he was traded 125 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: was about forty five minutes. Yeah, and it was like 126 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: just it felt like a whirlwind for us, although I 127 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,559 Speaker 1: think it had been apparently had been in the works 128 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: for a while. Kudos to the Chiefs Matt for real 129 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: knowing they and looking ahead to next year, weren't going 130 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: to be able to keep Uh, they weren't gonna be 131 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: able to keep Tyree Hill. He'd been playing unhappy this year, 132 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: and you could get a first rounder for him this 133 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: year and next year you'd have no leverage when he 134 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: was a free agent. Subsolutely, they made the right call 135 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: on moving him, and now they have picked sorry and 136 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: thirty in the draft. One of those is going to 137 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: be a receiver who will cost cost literally one tenth 138 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: as much money as Tyreek Hill. He'll be eight years 139 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: younger than Tyree Hill, and while he is very unlikely 140 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: to be as good as Tyree Hill, but maybe you 141 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: get of Tyreek Hill at one tenth the cost yeah, 142 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: and so this is all kind of like your NHL 143 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: trade you just talked about this. This these are tentacles 144 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: of the Trey Lance trade last year because this is 145 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: San Francisco's pick. So Miami flipped that pick that they 146 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: got from San fran to move up to get Jalen 147 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: Waddle and to trade to San Francisco go to get 148 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: Tyreek Ki or to Kansas City to get Tyreek Hill. 149 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: And they still got San Franz round three this year 150 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: and round one next year. So they added Hill and 151 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: Waddle by moving down nine spots in the draft. It 152 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: isn't moving down always the best thing to do always, Man, 153 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: If when you move up and pay, because it costs 154 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: so much to move us, just even incrementally in the 155 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: top half of the first round, you better hit it, 156 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: tore me. Trey Lance has got to hit for the Niners. 157 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: If he doesn't hit, it hurts, man. Is it hurt? Yeah? Um, 158 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: kudos to Miami. This is back to the Eric Lindrows trade. 159 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: I mean, the the Laramie Munsel. Laramie Tunsel. You know 160 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be in the at the end of the day. 161 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: It'll be like a hundred players who end up affected 162 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: by this trade. When everything is said and done, I 163 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: bet indirectly or directly. Um, So Mike McDaniel now gets 164 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: a really overhauled Miami team, broad in one of the 165 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: best offensive lineman available as well. Yeah, Tarren Armstead signed 166 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: in Miami. And so I did a little did a 167 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: little dig in about Tah because I think you and 168 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: I probably agree that he's the guy who gets the 169 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: biggest bump in fantasy value out of this whole trade. No, 170 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: Miami was actually eighth and passing attempts last year, which 171 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: surprised the heck out of me at thirty six point 172 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: to per game. But in parts say the running game 173 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: is so bad, Well, it must have been all short passes, 174 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: because they were eighteenth and passing yards and twenty four 175 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: and passing td s. So that's I mean, most you 176 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: know that's been the knock on toa has been the 177 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: downfield passing. I think he's fine in that fifteen to 178 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: twenty yard range, but when you extend past that too, 179 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 1: seems very shaking. So, although I don't have any scientific 180 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: evidence in front of me to that, with Mike McDaniel 181 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: coming in, do you think he brings a lot of 182 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 1: that San Francisco mentality with him because San Francisco had 183 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: the second fewest passing attempts per game last season, but 184 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: the twelve most yards much more efficient. And and it 185 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: might still be that maybe they just loaded this offense 186 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: up with Jalen Waddle who's got blazing speed, and Tyreek 187 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: Hill who's got blazing speed, and it's short dumps and 188 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: and it's handoffs like Deebo Samuel style to these wide 189 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: receivers and they're just gonna get the ball in these 190 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: guys hands ten to twelve times a game and say 191 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: make something with it. On Thursday, Tyreek Hill said he's 192 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: excited to be the Deebo Samuel and a Mike McDaniel offense. Great, 193 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: I'm on board. And if that means they're running Tyreek more, okay, 194 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: more power to you. Right, absolutely, I'll take that. It 195 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: is worth noting that from week six on, Jalen Waddle 196 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: average nine and a half targets per game. That's a 197 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: lot seven catches and seventy one yards in that span. 198 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: Um I can he maintain almost ten targets per game 199 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: with Tyreek Hill in the offense, don't think. I think 200 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: that's the part that goes down, but he'll in theory, 201 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill is gonna pull all much more and better 202 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 1: coverage to Hill that Wattle could do just as much 203 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: or more on fewer targets. Yeah, and and there's still 204 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: a lot of mouths defeat in this offense too, because 205 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: Mike Gasicki came back on the franchise. Tag Uh DeVante 206 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: Parker and Albert Wilson are still there right now. They 207 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: signed Trent Sherfield from San Francisco. I know, by the way, 208 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson, who we wanted to get the Michael Gallop 209 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 1: role in Dallas. Cedric Wilson signed there, and he's like 210 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: Cedric Man. Cedrick Wilson is better than Albert Wilson. And 211 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: I think they moved Avanta Parker. Maybe it, but it 212 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: still leaves him as the third wide receiver and probably 213 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: the fourth receiving option in the packing order, and that 214 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: kind of kills all of his fantasy value that might 215 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: have been there. Hopefully Parker gets traded to a different 216 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,559 Speaker 1: situation where it can do a little better. How about 217 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: how about Tyreek Hill saying that basically just acknowledging outright 218 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: that the Jets were only there as a bargaining chip 219 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: and to push up the price on the contract. I 220 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 1: heard that one on Thursday. Hill said I was never 221 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: going to New York. I was always all about Miami. Well, 222 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: and it's interesting that both Hill and Davante Adams picked 223 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: to go to states with no state income tax, funny 224 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: and warm weather destinations instead of the cold Midwest and 225 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: to either go home or play with their college buddies. 226 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: I mean, these guys, they know what they're doing. They're 227 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: getting a lot of money, and they're going to go 228 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: to a spot where they feel happy and ready to, 229 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: you know, raise their families. There. They left Hall of 230 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: Fame quarterbacking and better chances of winning, which is odd. 231 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 1: You know, that's that would be the part that you know, 232 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: it makes you wonder about the commitment to winning, you know. 233 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: And you know, for Hill, it was a commitment to 234 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: money as much as anything else. For Adams, you know, 235 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: we speculated about this last week. Maybe he just wanted 236 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: he was tired of being in the circus with Aaron Rodgers. 237 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: Now do you downgrade Patrick Mahomes or Travis Kelsey off 238 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: of this news a little bit? Yeah, Well not Kelsey necessarily, 239 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: but you know, from Homes you're going from Tyreek Hill 240 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: to Juju Smith Schuster. I mean, Hill unlocked so many 241 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: huge plays, you know, the fifties, sixties, seventy yard catch 242 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: and run completions. Juju just can't do that. Almost nobody can. 243 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean Mahomes takes Mahomes takes a hit 244 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: here Kelsey. I think it's more of a push for Kelsey. 245 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: You know, in theory he's he's more of a focal 246 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: point of the passing game. But you know, Hill opened 247 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: up the middle of the field in the way that 248 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: you know, very few other receivers. There's probably a little 249 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: more bracket coverage on Kelsey this year. That's that's that's 250 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: not a good thing for anybody. I think it probably 251 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: makes him fall out of the first round in my 252 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: opinion by the time we get to July. Unless Kansas 253 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: City really hits a home run with a with a 254 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: spark Lee wide receiver at the late first round of 255 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: the draft, don one of those two picks is going 256 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: to be wide receiver. Maybe both that you know, we've 257 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: seen the other reason and by you know, they lost 258 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: Byron Pringle, they lost Um Robinson's gone as well. Mikole 259 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: Hardman has been there, but I think we've seen enough 260 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: to know that he's just a spot guy. Mark Marques 261 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: Velda Scantling somehow got thirty million dollars despite never catching 262 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: forty passes in a season, a staggering lead. There's Marques Veldez. 263 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: Scantling is any better with Patrick Mahomes than under Aaron Rodgers. 264 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: They're all they're only well, they're both great deep ball 265 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: pass but you know only that he's the only he's 266 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: literally the only player faster than Tyreek Hill in the 267 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: NFL the last the last season, on just foot speed. 268 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: Over the last year, the only player who ran faster 269 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: than Tyreek Hill was Marques Velda Scantling. But that's all 270 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: he can do, and he can only run basically straight 271 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: and fast. I can't believe the Raiders didn't sign him. 272 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: That is, it's a great trait right there. I mean, 273 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: Hill and Pringle leave behind two d nineteen targets. That's 274 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: about thirteen per game for Kansas City. So um. Obviously 275 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: a huge upgrade for Juju from the quarterback perspective. So 276 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: maybe we haven't unlocked all of Juju because he's been 277 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: playing with you know, the shell of Ben Roethlisberger for 278 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: the last few years, and people are remembering how Juju 279 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: missed the tail end of the season last year, But 280 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: do remember that he did come back for the playoff 281 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: game for Pittsburgh and he played in seventy of the snaps, 282 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: So it's not like this is a lingering injury situation. 283 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: Juju is gonna be healthy and ready to go for 284 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: the season. I think he'll be one of the most 285 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: divisive players in drafts next August. There are people that 286 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: are going to absolutely believe the Juju sitting on a 287 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty Patrick Mahomes targets and has wide receiver 288 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: one upside. Yeah, the range of outcomes for Juju is 289 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: a first rounder that you get in the fifth, sixth round. 290 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: I don't think it'll I don't see. I don't think 291 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: he'll go that lead. He won't go that lay. I 292 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: think there's just you put twelve guys together and there's 293 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: gonna be two or three that really think Juju sitting 294 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: out a big year, you're probably and they're gonna I think, 295 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: I bet you do levels out at third round ADP 296 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: but could could return first round value, could return tenth 297 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: round value, and every option in between. I totally agree. 298 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: Let's go to Tampa Bay. We already talked Tom Brady 299 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: coming back. They get Leonard four Nett back and Leonard 300 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: four Nett. Frankly, it has been was a fantasy superstar 301 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: in many ways last year, particularly in PPR leagues. What 302 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: are your thoughts on for NET coming back Ronald Jones gone? 303 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: Not that he was even a factor, because he wasn't 304 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: a total non factor. Um, what do you what do 305 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: you think about him and what to expect from him? 306 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: Is it any different than what we saw last year? 307 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: I mean, Jones wasn't a factor in the fact that 308 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: he didn't put up stats to for Net's abilities especially, 309 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: but he did take snaps from four NET and there 310 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: something to be said about that having Leonard four NET 311 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: just have a slightly larger slice of the snap count. Um. 312 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 1: Right now, I looked up his current a DP on NFFC. 313 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: They're doing some early season drafts over there. He's coming 314 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,640 Speaker 1: in at number sixty four overall, which is yep. Um, 315 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 1: So that's a that's a seventh round or sixth round 316 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: pick in twelve Yeah, in a twelve team, or it's 317 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: a sixth round pick. But let's do the opposite territory 318 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: high pick of number fifty one. That's kind of the 319 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: beginning of the fifth round. So we're talking about a 320 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: guy who had seventy receptions last year. I mean in PPR, 321 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,199 Speaker 1: you know that's a that's a serious helper. When you 322 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: get seventy receptions forwarded fifty receiving yards. You know, here's 323 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 1: ten free points every week. That's a you know, absolutely 324 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 1: for that. And right now for the moment pre draft, 325 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:57,479 Speaker 1: no real competition on roster exactly. And I've seen some 326 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: some fantasy analysts on Twitter moving him up their cheat sheets. 327 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 1: I saw one guy put him as his number three 328 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: running back right now. Now that's bold and maybe a 329 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: little crazy, but hey, I mean that outcome it's not 330 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: impossible of Leonard Fournett to finish as the top five 331 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: running back. Yeah, it's not likely. It's not likely, but 332 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: it's not impossible. But a top ten running back, yeah, 333 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: I mean I'd feel pretty good about that. Could he 334 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: could do that? Fifth six round AP seems low to me? 335 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: Um right now? They also signed Chris Godwin Um. Even 336 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: though he's coming off a later season a c L, 337 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: I don't know that he's gonna be ready for the 338 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: stuff and sprained m c L. I'm only to be 339 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: ready for the start of the season, and I generally 340 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: avoid guys like that. Yeah, it's it's it's always tough, 341 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: and some of those a c L guys they do 342 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: come back, but they don't come back at fully, at 343 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: like full strength. Um, if it's a season long league, 344 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: it's probably one I'd probably be avoiding Chris Godwin. I 345 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: mean drafting in March right now, I'd be avoiding him. 346 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: But if we see a lot of reports in camp 347 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: that Godwin looks as good as ever and and and 348 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: maybe it makes a couple of preseason catches, I think 349 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: the hype will be right back for Chris Godwin I'm avoiding. 350 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: I don't like slow start players. I want to come 351 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: out of the gates three and one through four weeks 352 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: and have have the ability to move my players, have 353 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 1: the players are performing well, and if I want to 354 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: trade those, if I want to tweak my lineup, I 355 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: don't want to be sitting there with Chris Godwin on 356 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 1: a hobbled knee, whether he is playing or not playing, 357 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: and risk starting one in three instead of three and one. 358 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 1: And now I'm gonna position of weakness, and I've got 359 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,719 Speaker 1: to make moves and I've got to try to, you know, 360 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: get my team back on track. Maybe in a Guillotine league. 361 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: Have already been cut, you know that's I'm not I 362 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,959 Speaker 1: don't like these kind of players, and God bless them 363 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: for getting three years sixty million dollars off in a 364 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: c L. But Chris Godwin is not going to be 365 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: on my rosters this year. I respect that. Let's take 366 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: a break. Sure we come back. Let's talk about Matt 367 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: Ryan going to one of the few places where he's 368 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: got some real continuing fantasy viability, and let's talk about 369 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: the brand new Cole when we come back. Welcome back 370 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul Charchian, Matt Harrison, with you, Matt, 371 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan. It was a weird week for Matt Ryan. 372 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: The Falcons told him we're gonna go make a play 373 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: for Deshaun Watson. He was very gracious about it, said, 374 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: allow me to push back the date of my signing bonus, 375 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: so you don't have to play it. Pay it because 376 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 1: you know you may trade me or whatever. Stand up guy. 377 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: And so then they don't get Deshaun Watson and they 378 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: still move Matt Ryan to the Colts, a team that's 379 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: in a win now mode for the tail end Matt 380 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: Ryan's career. I thought it was. I thought they Ryan 381 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: handled it all very well and honestly for the Falcons, 382 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: other than you know, maybe trying to get to Shaun Watson, 383 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 1: which you could argue, you know, they should not have done. 384 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: I thought it was they must have handled it pretty well. 385 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: By the way, how savvy are the Colts. They trade 386 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: away Carson Wentz for a second round pick swap, so 387 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: they moved up seven places in the second round and 388 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: two round threes, and then they trade one of those 389 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: round threes for Matt Ryan. They moved up seven picks 390 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: in the draft and got a round three and maybe 391 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: got a better quarterback. And they got out of Wentz 392 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: his contract. They got all the Ryan's contract in the 393 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: Ryan's contract. It's a lot um, you know. I don't 394 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: dislike what we talked about it last week. I don't 395 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: dislike Wentz as much as most people do, and we 396 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,719 Speaker 1: talked about Wentz movie last week. But I like Ryan 397 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 1: here because he's going to do what Wentz couldn't do, 398 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: which is not making a lot of mistakes. He's a 399 00:21:55,080 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 1: proven veteran. The leadership qualities are undeniable. Um, and he's 400 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: got some pretty good targets to work with. Yeah, and 401 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: we're only three years removed from Matt Ryan almost hitting 402 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: a five thousand yard thirty five touchdown season, so uh, 403 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 1: it's really not that long ago. Ryan is slightly more 404 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: accurate than Carson Wentz to which is actually a little 405 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: bit more than slightly more. That's that those percentage points 406 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: are pretty big in the NFL H only a small 407 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: amount for average depth of target four point four to 408 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: four point two. So I don't think that this changes 409 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: things much for Michael Pittman. Maybe it bumps them up 410 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: a little. If they can get a weapon in the 411 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: draft to pair with Pittman, they kind of need to. UM. 412 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: And then having Jonathan Taylor in the backfield is always scary, 413 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: and you know, teams have to respect Jonathan Taylor's abilities 414 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: for sure. Obviously, a better offensive line for Matt Ryan 415 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: kind of skies the limit for him here. He could 416 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: he could like be like comeback player of the Year 417 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: in Indie this year, maybe, especially because the Colts defensively 418 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: can win on defense, you can win with running the ball. 419 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan doesn't need to throw five thousand yards and 420 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: you and Frankly probably can't give him the receivers you have. 421 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: T Y Hilton's probably done. Paris Campbell never healthy. I 422 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: love him, but never healthy, and mo Ali Cox might 423 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 1: be the second best receiver on the team. They need 424 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: receiver help still, and I think that may come in 425 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: the draft for Indianapolis and that might help Matt Ryan eventually. 426 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 1: Here yeah, if not, you're looking at Ashton Dulan and 427 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: Kiki Cutie. Yikes. While we're talking about Atlanta, let's go 428 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: to court Darryl Patterson, who resigns and patterson season was 429 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: fascinating Matt through the first half of the year. He 430 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: was the best story in fantasy football period, end of discussion. 431 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: He was the best story. It was. He was a 432 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: He was a top ten fantasy running back when none 433 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: of us, nobody had any inkling anything like that was 434 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: going to happen, and some leagues still had him listed 435 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: as wide receiver. The tweet of the week was when 436 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan was traded way and Corderol Patterson tweeted that 437 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: video of the kid who was gonna steal Cam Newton's 438 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: spot warming up his arm and Corderrel Patterson's like, I'm 439 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 1: getting ready, guys, don't worry about it. Corderyl is a 440 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: great dude. Yeah, he's he's awesome. Had a handful of 441 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 1: interactions with him when he was with the Vikings. He's, 442 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 1: you know, of of all the players you you don't 443 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: want to like just like hang out with and have 444 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: a few drinks, have a conversation, whatever, he'd be one 445 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 1: of the top guys. Absolutely awesome guy. And and he 446 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 1: gets Marcus Mariota um As as his quarterback this year, 447 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: probably a bridge quarterback. Atlanta is definitely in play. I 448 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: think they pick at number eight. They're definitely in play, 449 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: especially if Malik Willis were to fall. I think that 450 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: that might be a landing spot for him, and agreed 451 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: they could have him, you know, learn a year under 452 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: Mariota um But yeah, so eight and nine. I don't 453 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: think Malik Willis gets past eight and nine. I don't 454 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 1: think he gets past two. Honest and detroited to was 455 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: the first place he could. He has a real chance 456 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: of going gets either destroyed at two or somebody's trading 457 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,479 Speaker 1: up to two to get him. Yeah, that's it's so 458 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 1: early for him. Yeah, you know, Malik Wills would not 459 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: have been one of the top five quarterbacks taken last year, 460 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 1: and it goes highest two this year because you know, 461 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: it's all about what class you're in. I think the 462 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: Vegas odds have him at number two right now. Wow, yeah, 463 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: I know, I don't know that I would go there, 464 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: but yeah, but Maria, Now, let's remember, Mario just got 465 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 1: real running ability that the Tennessee never really even tried 466 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: to unlock. It's a different NFL now, Matt. You know, 467 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: this is an NFL that has shown what Lamar Jackson 468 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: and Josh Allen can do when you just throw out 469 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: the idea that we're only going to use our quarterback 470 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: to scramble, that we're going to use designed runs and 471 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: a lot of them. And these are teams that have 472 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: been highly successful well. And when Mariota was in Tennessee, 473 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: it was on the back of Derrick Henry on everything. 474 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 1: It was just like, We're going to pound the rock 475 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: with Henry over and over and over again. And it 476 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: didn't alt ever running back. So it's although, but we 477 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: didn't get to the second half of Corderill season, which 478 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: was disaster. Everybody kind of figured it out along the 479 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: way The nice part about Atlanta as it sits right 480 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:17,439 Speaker 1: now is there's two, maybe three guys for fantasy that 481 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: you'd even consider, and that's it. There's there's nobody else there. 482 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: It's Kyle Pitts, It's Cordarrell Patterson, and it's probably Mariota. 483 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: Those are probably the only guys that you would even 484 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: consider putting on your roster right now. They don't have 485 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: a running back to speak of, they have no other 486 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: wide receivers there. Calvin Ridley has gone for the year, 487 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: so I don't I don't quite know exactly what what 488 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: else you would do with Atlanta, So that makes it 489 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: kind of simple from a fantasy perspective. I think Kyle 490 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: Pitts gets hurt out of all of this. You know, 491 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan was not great in these last couple of years, 492 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 1: but more accomplished. Pastor's steadier pastor than Marcus Mario likely 493 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: will be UM. But still that you know right now, 494 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: most of that offense goes through Kyle Pitts. From what 495 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: we can tell, ye Allen Robinson's signed with the Rams, 496 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: this is UM. He effectively takes the place, at least 497 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: for the moment of of Odell Beckham Um and with 498 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 1: Robert Wood's gone, and now you know there's in theory, 499 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: there's a lot of targets for Allen Robinson and the 500 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: first competent quarterback he's ever experienced. Yeah. Absolutely, Now Odell 501 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: he's a he had the knee injury, and he's a 502 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 1: free agent after the Super Bowl, so he's probably not 503 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 1: going to sign with anybody until at least training camp, 504 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 1: that would be the earliest, and it might might linger 505 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 1: on into the season. So Woods and Beckham like split 506 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: last year almost completely evenly because Woods got hurt, like 507 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: the day after Beckham was traded for Um. They combined 508 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: for a hundred and seventeen targets last year. That's about 509 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: where we're gonna probably put the Allen Robinson projections at 510 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: is one seventeen and every year that he's had over 511 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: a hundred targets in his year, he's been a really 512 00:27:55,880 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: great fantasy UH player. He only had sixty six targets 513 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: last year. What mel practice was that in Chicago? Justin Field? 514 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 1: You know how much of that's on Robinson, We don't know, 515 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: but most you presumably it was a very young green 516 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: Justin Fields, but Justin Fields managed to find Darnell Mooney, Yeah, 517 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 1: plenty of times. So absolutely I think that this helps 518 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup in a way. Um, I mean probably, it's 519 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: it's probably close to a wash. Cooper Cup was so 520 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: awesome last year. It's it's not gonna help him too much. 521 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: But it hurts Van Jefferson, who was a dynasty stash 522 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: for me, just on the idea that Robert Woods might 523 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: not be ready, Odell Beckham might not be ready Van Jefferson, 524 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: I thought, hey, you might pop into a number two 525 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: role here, but that that didn't seem to work out, No, 526 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: it did not. Matthew Stafford got the extension. He'll be 527 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: the Rams quarterback for four more years. More years. Yeah, 528 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 1: I think it was a three year extension to give 529 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: him four more. He'll be at the bitter end of 530 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: his career four years from now. I mean it's gonna 531 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: be that's gonna be ringing every last pass out of 532 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: that arm. Yeah, he's gonna maybe look a little Peyton Manning. 533 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: He might, he might. I hope it doesn't come to that. 534 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: Let's hope not. Robert Woods, we mentioned traded to the Titans, 535 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: so they've got a J. Brown and as awesome as 536 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: he is, he's hurt a lot. Here comes Robert Woods. 537 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: He's coming off. Was it a c L something like that? 538 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: If it was a c L, I'll tell I'll look 539 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: look at up. Woods effectively takes the Julio Jones role. 540 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: And Julio Jones was, you know, a little dinged up 541 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: himself throughout his career, more than a little and and 542 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: and Robert Woods is coming in in the same breath. 543 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: It's it's hard for me to feel better about Robert Woods, 544 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: who's about the same age as Julio, just thirty nine. 545 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: But what's up until this is thirty nine years old? 546 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: Is he is? How does that even make sense? Well, 547 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: you remember all those years of Buffalo where he did nothing? 548 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: Oh my god, he's that always used him. He's thirty 549 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 1: nine years old. That's crazy, is it? It was an 550 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 1: a c L. And you know, for he was he's 551 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: kind of a low mileage guy because they just didn't Buffalo. 552 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's like, sorry, he wasn't born 553 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: in the eighties in the NFL. I don't know why 554 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: I said. That was ridiculous. Um never top six touchdowns. 555 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: But we did see him, we did see him in 556 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: in years past. He had yards season and eleven yards 557 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: season with the Rams, and they ran him a lot, 558 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: you know, the in the seasons prior to last year's 559 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: nineteen runs, seventeen runs, twenty four runs, and it'll be 560 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: fascinating to see. And he chalked in some touchdowns that 561 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: way Too'll it'll be interesting to see if the Titans 562 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: do the same thing. Yeah, I just feel like he's 563 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: like a wide receiver five kind of a guy. I 564 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get drafted above that from his past 565 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: track record. But it just feels like Tennessee's offense has 566 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: been so simple. It's been Henry, it's been Brown, it's 567 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: been Henry, it's been Brown, and they don't have room 568 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: for you know, those other guys. So another receiver coming 569 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: off a c L. Now, his his was earlier than 570 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:06,959 Speaker 1: um we we're talking about before it was coming off 571 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: the a c L. It was Odell Beckham. Well even 572 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: before that, we were talking about Chris Chris god right. Now, 573 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: I wouldn't take Godwin. He was like he had a 574 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: very late season one. But yeah, these are guys I'm 575 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: I'm mostly mostly avoiding my drafts, all right. Let's uh. 576 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: And by the way, I think Woods I think woods 577 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: you see wide receiver five, I think it'll be more 578 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: like four. But either way, you know, we both would 579 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: be hesitant to make him. That's somebody you have to 580 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: rely on. D J. Moore signed an extension with possibly 581 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: the worst team that he could possibly be with from 582 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: a fantasy standpoint, Carolina. Yeah, you gotta figure that they 583 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: have to do something at the quarterback position. I believe 584 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: they're at six in the draft and Malik Willis Kenny Pickett, 585 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: it's probably one of those two guys that's going to 586 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: be drafted there. If not, if they like one a 587 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: lot more, I think that they might trade up with 588 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: Detroit at two because that wouldn't be too much capital 589 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: to trade up for, so you wouldn't think so. But 590 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: to go from six to two will probably cost you, 591 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: you know, cost you six. It will cost you next 592 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: year's first and next year's first minimum, ye minimum. So 593 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: either either you're two or your next year's first, one 594 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: of those. So I think so too. All right, let's 595 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: go to d J. Well, we were we were on 596 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: d J. Moore by the way. Um, there were thoughts 597 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: that that might be a landing spot for Baker Mayfield Carolina, 598 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 1: but Apparently that's not going to happen. It sounds like, yeah, 599 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't look like Baker is interested in going to Carolina, 600 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: and Carolina is not interested in Baker. So I think 601 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: that's clear. That's notably. Your new signing quarterback for the 602 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: Saints is Jamis Winston is your old starting quarterback. Yeah, 603 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: I thought you know, Winston was a very hit and 604 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: miss fantasy quarterback last year, with some good games and 605 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: some terrible ones and then he uh, then he got 606 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: injured in his season ended. What are your thoughts on 607 00:32:55,760 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: on Winston? He does, at least in Eerie, get some 608 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: receiving help back, but it still doesn't feel like a 609 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: great situation for him. Winston had what let's see, he 610 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: had he had fourteen touchdowns last year. Yeah, but nine 611 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: were in two nine were against Green Bay and Washington, Yeah, exactly, 612 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: in two games. Everything else, everything else was pretty much 613 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: a disaster for him. Um. Now it sounds like Michael 614 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:28,239 Speaker 1: Thomas there made return to Saints. Who knows they're all 615 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: the bad blood. I think what's happened is they've realized 616 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: nobody else is gonna pay and there's no there was 617 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: no equity. The Saints had no no ability to move him. 618 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: Nobody wanted Michael Thomas um after two smissing the better 619 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: really all of the last two seasons, nobody, you know. 620 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: So they I think they're like, we're gonna you know, 621 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna pay him, We're gonna play him, and we 622 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: need him and hope that he comes back at what 623 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: he was before the last two years. Yeah, that he's 624 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: going to be a super interesting guy to talk about 625 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 1: come August once we see him on the field. A 626 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: little bit bad match. The feeling last year going into 627 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: last year was that he was a bad match for 628 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston because Winston's one redeeming value was his deep ball, 629 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 1: you know, the deep passes, and and Michael Thomas has 630 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: never shown the ability to be somebody who gets separation downfield. 631 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: It felt like a bad match last year. We never 632 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: got to see a play out on the field, and 633 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: it feels like a bad year batch this year. Yeah. Um, 634 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,439 Speaker 1: I do like that the Saints have seemingly given up 635 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 1: on the notion that Taysom Hill is a starting quarterback. Well, 636 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: and Sean Payton's gun too, So I think that that 637 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:36,760 Speaker 1: was a Sean Payton play right there. It probably is, uh, 638 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: Alvin Camara to me, if you I think it's about 639 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: the same as last year, Yeah, there's there's no difference there. 640 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 1: He's just the focal point of that offense. Right, Losing 641 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: tarn Armstrong is not a trivial No, and and and 642 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: Camara is a guy who's still going to go in 643 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: the first round. And he's a guy that I'll probably 644 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: avoid this year because I think I want to get 645 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: out a year early on Camara than the year too late. 646 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: Alvin Camery, you know his age thirty nine? Alright, no, no, no, 647 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:13,399 Speaker 1: amazing uh career for the year old. He's twenty six. 648 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: He's played in five seasons so far. Um, I don't 649 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 1: think he's reached the end of the road. But this 650 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 1: is the beginning of the end of the road for 651 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: most running backs, it is for most this is about 652 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: the end of it. But last year his yards per carry, 653 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: which is not always the best stat but yards per 654 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 1: carry three point seven. Yeah, they had no passing game 655 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: to speak. They didn't end. But his receiving numbers are 656 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: way down too. For after an entire career of having 657 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: between eighty one and eighty three receptions in four straight seasons. 658 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:52,760 Speaker 1: At forty seven receptions. The defense is new. The quarterback 659 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: in the passing game was so wrong and so bad. 660 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: Defense is new. You take stop out, you take away 661 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: Alvin Camara. Nobody make and beat you with whatever else? Yes, 662 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: with you know Marcuez, Uh, Mark Halloway, Halloway exactly, exactly. 663 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 1: All right. Let's one final note. Jets, No sorry, Buffalo Bills. 664 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: Jamison Crowder moves from the Jets to Buffalo. Duke Johnson, 665 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,240 Speaker 1: who finished the season with a couple of nice games 666 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: last season for Miami, goes to Buffalo as well. Yeah, 667 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: effectively replacing j. D. Mckissic in Buffalo, and was like, Nah, 668 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back and everybody hates that. Uh, and 669 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 1: then uh, Cole Beasley has gone. Jameson Crowder will be 670 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: your starting slot receiver as it stands right now. Yeah, 671 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: there's a lot of wide receivers in this depth chart 672 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 1: to Stephan Diggs, Gabriel Davis who had the huge game 673 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, Emmanuel Sanders is still there, and Isaiah 674 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 1: mackenzie was a guy that they re upped this offseason. Two. 675 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,839 Speaker 1: Diggs had some cryptic tweets a day or two ago. 676 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: He said, it's it's it's never person, it's just business. 677 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 1: That's that's Stefan saying I need more money, I need 678 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: more money, or trade me. Well, that's what the Vikings 679 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: got stuck with. Well, And and we've seen Adams moved 680 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: from the Hall of Fame caliber quarterback away, We've seen 681 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,919 Speaker 1: Hill moved from Hall of Fame caliber quarterback away. Could 682 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: we see Digs just force his way out maybe, and 683 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: you know, try to put himself in a spot where 684 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: maybe he ends up in Florida somewhere Jacksonville or Tampa 685 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: Bay or something like that, a place where maybe they 686 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: have a little bit of money that Jacksonville certainly would 687 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: have would have had the money to spend if they 688 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 1: wanted to. But you imagine Jacksonville trading, you know, pick 689 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 1: number one for Stefon Diggs. Straight up, No, I don't, 690 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: I don't think I don't. I don't think that. I 691 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 1: don't think he would command that right now, you gotta 692 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: take you gotta take dig salary. And you know, and 693 00:37:55,560 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: they just committed eighty million dollars to Christian Kirk. Last thing, 694 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: let's talk Duke Johnson for just a minute at as 695 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 1: in a real rarity for the NFL, it almost never happens. 696 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: We saw Devin Singletary in year three finally put it 697 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: all together when he had done nothing. Yeah, he couldn't 698 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 1: have looked more ordinary for every other part of his 699 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,800 Speaker 1: career and then comes screaming down to the second half 700 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: of the year last year and ends up with a 701 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 1: really nice season. They bring in and Zack Moss just 702 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: totally phased out of that offense um. And so now 703 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: the presumption is that Duke Johnson will have every opportunity 704 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,439 Speaker 1: to at least be the backup running back behind Singletary. Yeah, 705 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: you think that he'd be involved in the passing game 706 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 1: a lot too. But I mean, if you look at 707 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,439 Speaker 1: down the stretch for the Bills, uh, Devin Singletary had 708 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: one game in week fifteen with twenty two carries, a 709 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: game in week seven team with twenty three carries, but 710 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: then it was twelve ten eight seven seven. That's just 711 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: how the Bills put. Bills are just they put that 712 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: ball in Josh Allen's hand, and they're gonna make plays 713 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: with Josh Allen, whether it's with his arm or his feet, 714 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: and that's how that offense works. So with Duke Johnson there, 715 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: maybe just because of the passing game aspect and the 716 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: last Um. I think that that's what makes him kind 717 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: of interesting. He's going to be like a late round, 718 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: best ball kind of guy that I think that you 719 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: could slot in in the eighteenth round and feel pretty 720 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 1: good about it. Yeah. I like him in that format 721 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: more than than most others. Um. Yeah, Duke Johnson's a 722 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,760 Speaker 1: We've always wanted him, or at least I've always wanted 723 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: him to be more of a pass catching back than 724 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 1: he's ultimately ended up being. But I you know, maybe 725 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: this is a team that will unlock a little bit 726 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: of that. Although Singletary can catch two so they don't 727 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: even need to use if they don't want. By the way, 728 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: Duke Johnson thirty nine years old, Really yeah, that looks good. 729 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:02,399 Speaker 1: I mean this, ty, this is a strange, strange year 730 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 1: for those wide, all these fantasy players who are born 731 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 1: in five four. It's really weird, very big year. I 732 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 1: don't know. Um, all right, We've we've had a lot 733 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: of fun. Thank you for listening, everybody.

I think we'll next 737 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 1: week will also be a will also be more of 738 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: free agency, and it'll be won't be as big as 739 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: moves as these, And then we're gonna start working on April, 740 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: start working on all our draft stuff, getting all prepped 741 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,320 Speaker 1: up for the draft, favorite players, landing spots, who we 742 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: want to see go where. To me, this is like 743 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 1: the least exciting draft from a fantasy standpoint that I've seen. 744 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: But maybe like doing all the research will really hypen it. 745 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: And I'll do a little bit of that. Um, you 746 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: know it's I think it's because the running back positions 747 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: generally down own this year and there's probably not a 748 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:05,360 Speaker 1: running first round running back quarterback positions down uh no 749 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,840 Speaker 1: tight end of the first round, and so it's a 750 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 1: good receiver draft. But that's that's from a fantasy standpoint, 751 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: that's it. Ye, So you know, but you know it, 752 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 1: it always turns out that there are great players to 753 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,760 Speaker 1: be had. We'll find them. We will try to unearth 754 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 1: the great job today, Matt, appreciate it.
