<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly, a production of I Heart Radio.

0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from my Heart Radio,

0:00:09.840 --> 0:00:13.360
<v Speaker 1>your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy football advice

0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:16.640
<v Speaker 1>and speculation and whatever stupid stuff they decided to drop

0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:22.640
<v Speaker 1>into the show. Now, here's your host. It's Fantasy Football Weekly.

0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:27.680
<v Speaker 1>I am Paul Charchy and my co host today Matt Harrison. Hello. Man,

0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:30.040
<v Speaker 1>we've kept Brian away for two weeks. I know it's

0:00:30.040 --> 0:00:33.440
<v Speaker 1>hard to do that. It's hard to do, but we've

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:36.120
<v Speaker 1>managed to pull it off. Amazing. Yeah. I don't know

0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:40.400
<v Speaker 1>if that's good or bad listeners, but less Brian the normal.

0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:43.320
<v Speaker 1>He's got the coolest voice out of all of us,

0:00:43.320 --> 0:00:45.000
<v Speaker 1>out of all four of us. I mean that, you know,

0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:48.040
<v Speaker 1>the deep baritone, and he's got some great analysis to

0:00:48.080 --> 0:00:50.440
<v Speaker 1>go with it. So great might be a little okay,

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:54.800
<v Speaker 1>so some slightly above average analysis. Let's go with that.

0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 1>Let's go with that. So last week, Scott and I

0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:03.360
<v Speaker 1>get done recording the podcast, uploading the podcast, and just

0:01:03.520 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 1>as it's hitting everybody and Scott's long gone from my house,

0:01:07.400 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>then the all the all the dominoes fall and we

0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 1>have massive news, including um, the Deshaun Watson trade, gets

0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:20.800
<v Speaker 1>fine text like did you guys get the Watson thing

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:22.759
<v Speaker 1>in because it was happening like right when you were

0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:28.000
<v Speaker 1>so the whole thing got blown up. You know, it's

0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:31.120
<v Speaker 1>the off season. Times time is not of It's like

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:33.959
<v Speaker 1>every day counts quite as much. And we're recording this

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:36.720
<v Speaker 1>on a Friday in the off season. And Watson was

0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:40.200
<v Speaker 1>introduced today to the Cleveland media. So it all comes

0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:42.600
<v Speaker 1>back around right now. I listened to the press conference.

0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland media would Adam pretty hard. Yeah I was. I

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>was glad you got you haven't have to have accountability

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 1>in these situations, and you know, clearly he had done.

0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:52.440
<v Speaker 1>He had he had been coached up on what to

0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:54.840
<v Speaker 1>say because he had kept hitting the same talking points

0:01:54.840 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 1>over and over again. But Cleveland media was pretty aggressive

0:01:57.880 --> 0:02:00.840
<v Speaker 1>with him, which I thought was appropriate card questions in

0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:03.640
<v Speaker 1>this situation. Yeah, why not? Well, and he signed a

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.640
<v Speaker 1>big five year contract and uh so he's gonna be

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:10.520
<v Speaker 1>there for a while, presumably, well they're gonna pay him

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.639
<v Speaker 1>for a while, no matter what. It's all guaranteed two

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>hundred thirty million dollars. Think about it this way. Deshaun

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Watson was on the Texans and they traded away all

0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 1>their first round picks for Laramie tunsl And now he

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:24.079
<v Speaker 1>goes to the Browns and they traded away all their

0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:26.640
<v Speaker 1>first round picks for Shaun Watson. He's on this team

0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:29.240
<v Speaker 1>that's never gonna have a first round pick like his

0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 1>entire career. So this is gonna be pretty interesting to

0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:35.720
<v Speaker 1>see how this pans out. There was an epic trade

0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 1>in hockey twenty five is years ago involving Peter Forsberg,

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Um and Um the key player went to the Flyers,

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>and it involved like eight players and a bunch of

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:52.880
<v Speaker 1>draft picks, and somebody at one point figured out all

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:56.200
<v Speaker 1>the butterfly effect of that, and years and years later

0:02:56.320 --> 0:03:00.880
<v Speaker 1>and it ended up being like thousand players that ended

0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:05.720
<v Speaker 1>up impacted by this one trade years later, probably something

0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:09.400
<v Speaker 1>similar to the Vikings and herschel Walker back in but

0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>it was way more far reaching, I think. But yes, Weld,

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't not to see if I can quit google it.

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:18.360
<v Speaker 1>Peter Forsberg, Well, while you're googling that, I mean, I

0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.280
<v Speaker 1>guess I'll note that Amari Cooper probably gets a little

0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:25.280
<v Speaker 1>bit of an upgrade here. Um. He also is seeing

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:28.920
<v Speaker 1>a hundred vacated targets from the Browns from Landry and

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Beckham and Austin Hooper last year. So uh, being the

0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 1>top target in the Deshaun Watson led offense has been

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 1>a good thing to be for the past few years.

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 1>So uh, Amari Cooper is going to bump up a

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 1>few spots in a DP, especially if Cleveland doesn't replace

0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:46.480
<v Speaker 1>some of that talent, and maybe the second round of

0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:51.360
<v Speaker 1>the draft or throughout free agency. I mean it's David

0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:53.840
<v Speaker 1>and Joku, and it's Harrison Bryant and Kareem Hunt and

0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.880
<v Speaker 1>tight ends running backs and Amari Cooper and Donovan People's Jones,

0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:00.640
<v Speaker 1>who's kind of sneaky. Well, we thought he was last year,

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:03.400
<v Speaker 1>and he clearly could not step up and assume the

0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:06.640
<v Speaker 1>rule of a I don't even say go to receiver. Sure,

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't even alpha receiver. Domind People's Jones couldn't even

0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:13.480
<v Speaker 1>be a beta receiver. The leading Browns receiver had five

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred seventy four yards. And now is that a Baker

0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Mayfield problem. Well, a little bit of culpability, but I

0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:22.840
<v Speaker 1>don't think a lot. I don't think as much as

0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 1>as you might. I mean, it's interesting because the other

0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 1>domino to fall here is Baker Mayfield right. Um, the

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Browns still are holding onto him, trying to trade him

0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:35.280
<v Speaker 1>right now, but he's on his fifth year of the contract,

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:38.159
<v Speaker 1>so it's it's kind of a higher price and he's

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.600
<v Speaker 1>probably looking for an extension right now. So he's trying

0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to find a team that will take him, and everybody

0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 1>kind of lined up their quarterback now it's really Carolina

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 1>who there's not interest in Carolina from what I hear Seattle,

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:54.480
<v Speaker 1>maybe that's about it. There's there's not many other teams

0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:56.760
<v Speaker 1>that are really looking for a quarterback of his caliber

0:04:56.880 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 1>right now. Yeah, there'sh for Mayfield. If you're in dynas,

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:03.880
<v Speaker 1>do you hold or do you sell on Mayfield right now?

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:07.960
<v Speaker 1>You'd obviously be selling it like maybe the all time

0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:10.400
<v Speaker 1>low right now. So if if you got a deep

0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:12.400
<v Speaker 1>enough roster and you can hold him, I think you

0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>just hold Baker Mayfield, see what happens and maybe at

0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:19.920
<v Speaker 1>the advent of him getting traded to somebody, Yeah, that's

0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 1>when the value peaks a little bit and then you

0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:24.840
<v Speaker 1>start moving him. I think there's I think there's a

0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 1>decent chance we haven't heard the last of meaningful play

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:31.720
<v Speaker 1>from Baker Mayfield, one way or another. Some quarterback needy

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:34.240
<v Speaker 1>team is going to give him a chance. Baker Mayfield

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:39.880
<v Speaker 1>has some talent. He played last year hurt constantly. Armon Harness,

0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:43.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't think we've quite heard the end of Baker

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Mayfield right now. Yeah, I agree. I think I think

0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:48.640
<v Speaker 1>he ends up. He ends up some place doing something

0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:51.719
<v Speaker 1>that ultimately ultimately ends up helping him. By the way,

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:56.080
<v Speaker 1>Eric Lindross because the Eric Linder Drows trade that was

0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:02.680
<v Speaker 1>twenty six years ago, alright, um ended up forever changing

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:05.479
<v Speaker 1>a couple of different a couple of different teams, the

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Flyers and the Nordics, where the teams involved became the

0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:11.279
<v Speaker 1>Avalanche became the Avalanche, and then they went out. The

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Avalanche with all the equity they got from the Flyers

0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.840
<v Speaker 1>ended up winning the Stanley Cup with guys like Peter

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:20.359
<v Speaker 1>Forsberg and Ron Hextall and Mike Greeky and Steve du

0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Shane and a bunch of others. Patrick Waugh he that

0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Ole was on that team, not part of the trade,

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.200
<v Speaker 1>but he was. He was on the team back then. Yeah,

0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:33.159
<v Speaker 1>that was all Those are great teams. Okay, continuing about

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>where were you this week when the Tyreek Hill news

0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 1>just started coming down? Because it seemed like it was

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:41.800
<v Speaker 1>out of nowhere, just a surprise. Yeah. And part of

0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>the part of the fun of the whole Tyreek thing

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 1>is from the time that the press started reporting that

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Tyreek could be traded to the time he was traded

0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:52.840
<v Speaker 1>was about forty five minutes. Yeah, and it was like

0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 1>just it felt like a whirlwind for us, although I

0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:57.559
<v Speaker 1>think it had been apparently had been in the works

0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:00.680
<v Speaker 1>for a while. Kudos to the Chiefs Matt for real

0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:04.599
<v Speaker 1>knowing they and looking ahead to next year, weren't going

0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:06.640
<v Speaker 1>to be able to keep Uh, they weren't gonna be

0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:09.640
<v Speaker 1>able to keep Tyree Hill. He'd been playing unhappy this year,

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:12.280
<v Speaker 1>and you could get a first rounder for him this

0:07:12.360 --> 0:07:13.920
<v Speaker 1>year and next year you'd have no leverage when he

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.120
<v Speaker 1>was a free agent. Subsolutely, they made the right call

0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:19.640
<v Speaker 1>on moving him, and now they have picked sorry and

0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>thirty in the draft. One of those is going to

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:26.480
<v Speaker 1>be a receiver who will cost cost literally one tenth

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 1>as much money as Tyreek Hill. He'll be eight years

0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:34.520
<v Speaker 1>younger than Tyree Hill, and while he is very unlikely

0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:36.400
<v Speaker 1>to be as good as Tyree Hill, but maybe you

0:07:36.440 --> 0:07:40.440
<v Speaker 1>get of Tyreek Hill at one tenth the cost yeah,

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:43.480
<v Speaker 1>and so this is all kind of like your NHL

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:46.280
<v Speaker 1>trade you just talked about this. This these are tentacles

0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:49.000
<v Speaker 1>of the Trey Lance trade last year because this is

0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:53.440
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco's pick. So Miami flipped that pick that they

0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 1>got from San fran to move up to get Jalen

0:07:56.880 --> 0:08:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Waddle and to trade to San Francisco go to get

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Tyreek Ki or to Kansas City to get Tyreek Hill.

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.520
<v Speaker 1>And they still got San Franz round three this year

0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 1>and round one next year. So they added Hill and

0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Waddle by moving down nine spots in the draft. It

0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:18.240
<v Speaker 1>isn't moving down always the best thing to do always, Man,

0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:20.920
<v Speaker 1>If when you move up and pay, because it costs

0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.960
<v Speaker 1>so much to move us, just even incrementally in the

0:08:23.960 --> 0:08:26.840
<v Speaker 1>top half of the first round, you better hit it,

0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 1>tore me. Trey Lance has got to hit for the Niners.

0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:35.040
<v Speaker 1>If he doesn't hit, it hurts, man. Is it hurt? Yeah? Um,

0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:38.880
<v Speaker 1>kudos to Miami. This is back to the Eric Lindrows trade.

0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:42.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the the Laramie Munsel. Laramie Tunsel. You know

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:45.520
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be in the at the end of the day.

0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:48.480
<v Speaker 1>It'll be like a hundred players who end up affected

0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:50.600
<v Speaker 1>by this trade. When everything is said and done, I

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:56.920
<v Speaker 1>bet indirectly or directly. Um, So Mike McDaniel now gets

0:08:56.320 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 1>a really overhauled Miami team, broad in one of the

0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:05.200
<v Speaker 1>best offensive lineman available as well. Yeah, Tarren Armstead signed

0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:07.679
<v Speaker 1>in Miami. And so I did a little did a

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.120
<v Speaker 1>little dig in about Tah because I think you and

0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I probably agree that he's the guy who gets the

0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:16.079
<v Speaker 1>biggest bump in fantasy value out of this whole trade. No,

0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Miami was actually eighth and passing attempts last year, which

0:09:19.360 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 1>surprised the heck out of me at thirty six point

0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:24.800
<v Speaker 1>to per game. But in parts say the running game

0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:27.400
<v Speaker 1>is so bad, Well, it must have been all short passes,

0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:30.200
<v Speaker 1>because they were eighteenth and passing yards and twenty four

0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:32.760
<v Speaker 1>and passing td s. So that's I mean, most you

0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 1>know that's been the knock on toa has been the

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:38.720
<v Speaker 1>downfield passing. I think he's fine in that fifteen to

0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:42.520
<v Speaker 1>twenty yard range, but when you extend past that too,

0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.199
<v Speaker 1>seems very shaking. So, although I don't have any scientific

0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:48.000
<v Speaker 1>evidence in front of me to that, with Mike McDaniel

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 1>coming in, do you think he brings a lot of

0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:54.439
<v Speaker 1>that San Francisco mentality with him because San Francisco had

0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 1>the second fewest passing attempts per game last season, but

0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 1>the twelve most yards much more efficient. And and it

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:05.160
<v Speaker 1>might still be that maybe they just loaded this offense

0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:08.240
<v Speaker 1>up with Jalen Waddle who's got blazing speed, and Tyreek

0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Hill who's got blazing speed, and it's short dumps and

0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:14.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's handoffs like Deebo Samuel style to these wide

0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:17.200
<v Speaker 1>receivers and they're just gonna get the ball in these

0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:20.360
<v Speaker 1>guys hands ten to twelve times a game and say

0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:23.040
<v Speaker 1>make something with it. On Thursday, Tyreek Hill said he's

0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:28.600
<v Speaker 1>excited to be the Deebo Samuel and a Mike McDaniel offense. Great,

0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm on board. And if that means they're running Tyreek more, okay,

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.480
<v Speaker 1>more power to you. Right, absolutely, I'll take that. It

0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:39.480
<v Speaker 1>is worth noting that from week six on, Jalen Waddle

0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:42.880
<v Speaker 1>average nine and a half targets per game. That's a

0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:45.960
<v Speaker 1>lot seven catches and seventy one yards in that span.

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Um I can he maintain almost ten targets per game

0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:54.920
<v Speaker 1>with Tyreek Hill in the offense, don't think. I think

0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:58.680
<v Speaker 1>that's the part that goes down, but he'll in theory,

0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Tyreek Hill is gonna pull all much more and better

0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:05.439
<v Speaker 1>coverage to Hill that Wattle could do just as much

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:09.520
<v Speaker 1>or more on fewer targets. Yeah, and and there's still

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:11.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot of mouths defeat in this offense too, because

0:11:12.080 --> 0:11:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Mike Gasicki came back on the franchise. Tag Uh DeVante

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:18.800
<v Speaker 1>Parker and Albert Wilson are still there right now. They

0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 1>signed Trent Sherfield from San Francisco. I know, by the way,

0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Cedric Wilson, who we wanted to get the Michael Gallop

0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:28.559
<v Speaker 1>role in Dallas. Cedric Wilson signed there, and he's like

0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Cedric Man. Cedrick Wilson is better than Albert Wilson. And

0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:36.560
<v Speaker 1>I think they moved Avanta Parker. Maybe it, but it

0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:39.600
<v Speaker 1>still leaves him as the third wide receiver and probably

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:43.000
<v Speaker 1>the fourth receiving option in the packing order, and that

0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:45.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of kills all of his fantasy value that might

0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 1>have been there. Hopefully Parker gets traded to a different

0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:50.559
<v Speaker 1>situation where it can do a little better. How about

0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.880
<v Speaker 1>how about Tyreek Hill saying that basically just acknowledging outright

0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:59.000
<v Speaker 1>that the Jets were only there as a bargaining chip

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:02.480
<v Speaker 1>and to push up the price on the contract. I

0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:05.079
<v Speaker 1>heard that one on Thursday. Hill said I was never

0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:08.640
<v Speaker 1>going to New York. I was always all about Miami. Well,

0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:12.480
<v Speaker 1>and it's interesting that both Hill and Davante Adams picked

0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>to go to states with no state income tax, funny

0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:20.000
<v Speaker 1>and warm weather destinations instead of the cold Midwest and

0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:23.360
<v Speaker 1>to either go home or play with their college buddies.

0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:26.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, these guys, they know what they're doing. They're

0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:27.760
<v Speaker 1>getting a lot of money, and they're going to go

0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:30.840
<v Speaker 1>to a spot where they feel happy and ready to,

0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:33.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, raise their families. There. They left Hall of

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:40.320
<v Speaker 1>Fame quarterbacking and better chances of winning, which is odd.

0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's that would be the part that you know,

0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:47.480
<v Speaker 1>it makes you wonder about the commitment to winning, you know.

0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:49.920
<v Speaker 1>And you know, for Hill, it was a commitment to

0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:54.200
<v Speaker 1>money as much as anything else. For Adams, you know,

0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:57.440
<v Speaker 1>we speculated about this last week. Maybe he just wanted

0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:00.800
<v Speaker 1>he was tired of being in the circus with Aaron Rodgers.

0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Now do you downgrade Patrick Mahomes or Travis Kelsey off

0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:09.480
<v Speaker 1>of this news a little bit? Yeah, Well not Kelsey necessarily,

0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:12.120
<v Speaker 1>but you know, from Homes you're going from Tyreek Hill

0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:16.160
<v Speaker 1>to Juju Smith Schuster. I mean, Hill unlocked so many

0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:21.160
<v Speaker 1>huge plays, you know, the fifties, sixties, seventy yard catch

0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:24.800
<v Speaker 1>and run completions. Juju just can't do that. Almost nobody can.

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I mean Mahomes takes Mahomes takes a hit

0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:34.440
<v Speaker 1>here Kelsey. I think it's more of a push for Kelsey.

0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, in theory he's he's more of a focal

0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:40.120
<v Speaker 1>point of the passing game. But you know, Hill opened

0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:42.040
<v Speaker 1>up the middle of the field in the way that

0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, very few other receivers. There's probably a little

0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:48.520
<v Speaker 1>more bracket coverage on Kelsey this year. That's that's that's

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.480
<v Speaker 1>not a good thing for anybody. I think it probably

0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:53.720
<v Speaker 1>makes him fall out of the first round in my

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:56.400
<v Speaker 1>opinion by the time we get to July. Unless Kansas

0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.600
<v Speaker 1>City really hits a home run with a with a

0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:02.000
<v Speaker 1>spark Lee wide receiver at the late first round of

0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:03.800
<v Speaker 1>the draft, don one of those two picks is going

0:14:03.880 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 1>to be wide receiver. Maybe both that you know, we've

0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 1>seen the other reason and by you know, they lost

0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:15.600
<v Speaker 1>Byron Pringle, they lost Um Robinson's gone as well. Mikole

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:17.600
<v Speaker 1>Hardman has been there, but I think we've seen enough

0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 1>to know that he's just a spot guy. Mark Marques

0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:24.280
<v Speaker 1>Velda Scantling somehow got thirty million dollars despite never catching

0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:29.400
<v Speaker 1>forty passes in a season, a staggering lead. There's Marques Veldez.

0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Scantling is any better with Patrick Mahomes than under Aaron Rodgers.

0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:38.080
<v Speaker 1>They're all they're only well, they're both great deep ball

0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:41.240
<v Speaker 1>pass but you know only that he's the only he's

0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:44.640
<v Speaker 1>literally the only player faster than Tyreek Hill in the

0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:48.320
<v Speaker 1>NFL the last the last season, on just foot speed.

0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Over the last year, the only player who ran faster

0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:53.840
<v Speaker 1>than Tyreek Hill was Marques Velda Scantling. But that's all

0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:56.920
<v Speaker 1>he can do, and he can only run basically straight

0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:59.400
<v Speaker 1>and fast. I can't believe the Raiders didn't sign him.

0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:01.800
<v Speaker 1>That is, it's a great trait right there. I mean,

0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:05.520
<v Speaker 1>Hill and Pringle leave behind two d nineteen targets. That's

0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:10.800
<v Speaker 1>about thirteen per game for Kansas City. So um. Obviously

0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:14.400
<v Speaker 1>a huge upgrade for Juju from the quarterback perspective. So

0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:17.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe we haven't unlocked all of Juju because he's been

0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 1>playing with you know, the shell of Ben Roethlisberger for

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:24.120
<v Speaker 1>the last few years, and people are remembering how Juju

0:15:24.160 --> 0:15:26.400
<v Speaker 1>missed the tail end of the season last year, But

0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:29.160
<v Speaker 1>do remember that he did come back for the playoff

0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:32.720
<v Speaker 1>game for Pittsburgh and he played in seventy of the snaps,

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.600
<v Speaker 1>So it's not like this is a lingering injury situation.

0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Juju is gonna be healthy and ready to go for

0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:39.480
<v Speaker 1>the season. I think he'll be one of the most

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:44.000
<v Speaker 1>divisive players in drafts next August. There are people that

0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:47.040
<v Speaker 1>are going to absolutely believe the Juju sitting on a

0:15:47.160 --> 0:15:51.320
<v Speaker 1>hundred and thirty Patrick Mahomes targets and has wide receiver

0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:55.120
<v Speaker 1>one upside. Yeah, the range of outcomes for Juju is

0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:59.880
<v Speaker 1>a first rounder that you get in the fifth, sixth round.

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it'll I don't see. I don't think

0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.600
<v Speaker 1>he'll go that lead. He won't go that lay. I

0:16:04.600 --> 0:16:08.440
<v Speaker 1>think there's just you put twelve guys together and there's

0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:11.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna be two or three that really think Juju sitting

0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 1>out a big year, you're probably and they're gonna I think,

0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:17.240
<v Speaker 1>I bet you do levels out at third round ADP

0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.040
<v Speaker 1>but could could return first round value, could return tenth

0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:23.920
<v Speaker 1>round value, and every option in between. I totally agree.

0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to Tampa Bay. We already talked Tom Brady

0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 1>coming back. They get Leonard four Nett back and Leonard

0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 1>four Nett. Frankly, it has been was a fantasy superstar

0:16:33.240 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 1>in many ways last year, particularly in PPR leagues. What

0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:41.240
<v Speaker 1>are your thoughts on for NET coming back Ronald Jones gone?

0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Not that he was even a factor, because he wasn't

0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:46.240
<v Speaker 1>a total non factor. Um, what do you what do

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:49.080
<v Speaker 1>you think about him and what to expect from him?

0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Is it any different than what we saw last year?

0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:53.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Jones wasn't a factor in the fact that

0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:56.840
<v Speaker 1>he didn't put up stats to for Net's abilities especially,

0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:59.920
<v Speaker 1>but he did take snaps from four NET and there

0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:02.480
<v Speaker 1>something to be said about that having Leonard four NET

0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:07.119
<v Speaker 1>just have a slightly larger slice of the snap count. Um.

0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Right now, I looked up his current a DP on NFFC.

0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:13.960
<v Speaker 1>They're doing some early season drafts over there. He's coming

0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:17.640
<v Speaker 1>in at number sixty four overall, which is yep. Um,

0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:22.120
<v Speaker 1>So that's a that's a seventh round or sixth round

0:17:22.119 --> 0:17:26.280
<v Speaker 1>pick in twelve Yeah, in a twelve team, or it's

0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 1>a sixth round pick. But let's do the opposite territory

0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:32.600
<v Speaker 1>high pick of number fifty one. That's kind of the

0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:35.800
<v Speaker 1>beginning of the fifth round. So we're talking about a

0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:39.560
<v Speaker 1>guy who had seventy receptions last year. I mean in PPR,

0:17:40.240 --> 0:17:42.199
<v Speaker 1>you know that's a that's a serious helper. When you

0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:45.639
<v Speaker 1>get seventy receptions forwarded fifty receiving yards. You know, here's

0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:49.159
<v Speaker 1>ten free points every week. That's a you know, absolutely

0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:52.159
<v Speaker 1>for that. And right now for the moment pre draft,

0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:57.479
<v Speaker 1>no real competition on roster exactly. And I've seen some

0:17:57.480 --> 0:18:01.879
<v Speaker 1>some fantasy analysts on Twitter moving him up their cheat sheets.

0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.120
<v Speaker 1>I saw one guy put him as his number three

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:07.119
<v Speaker 1>running back right now. Now that's bold and maybe a

0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:11.560
<v Speaker 1>little crazy, but hey, I mean that outcome it's not

0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:14.720
<v Speaker 1>impossible of Leonard Fournett to finish as the top five

0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.879
<v Speaker 1>running back. Yeah, it's not likely. It's not likely, but

0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:21.080
<v Speaker 1>it's not impossible. But a top ten running back, yeah,

0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean I'd feel pretty good about that. Could he

0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:26.640
<v Speaker 1>could do that? Fifth six round AP seems low to me?

0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:31.359
<v Speaker 1>Um right now? They also signed Chris Godwin Um. Even

0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.680
<v Speaker 1>though he's coming off a later season a c L,

0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that he's gonna be ready for the

0:18:36.920 --> 0:18:38.879
<v Speaker 1>stuff and sprained m c L. I'm only to be

0:18:39.000 --> 0:18:41.320
<v Speaker 1>ready for the start of the season, and I generally

0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:44.480
<v Speaker 1>avoid guys like that. Yeah, it's it's it's always tough,

0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:46.000
<v Speaker 1>and some of those a c L guys they do

0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:49.439
<v Speaker 1>come back, but they don't come back at fully, at

0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:53.000
<v Speaker 1>like full strength. Um, if it's a season long league,

0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:56.960
<v Speaker 1>it's probably one I'd probably be avoiding Chris Godwin. I

0:18:57.000 --> 0:19:00.240
<v Speaker 1>mean drafting in March right now, I'd be avoiding him.

0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:02.240
<v Speaker 1>But if we see a lot of reports in camp

0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.720
<v Speaker 1>that Godwin looks as good as ever and and and

0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:08.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe it makes a couple of preseason catches, I think

0:19:08.359 --> 0:19:11.280
<v Speaker 1>the hype will be right back for Chris Godwin I'm avoiding.

0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:14.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't like slow start players. I want to come

0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:16.240
<v Speaker 1>out of the gates three and one through four weeks

0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:20.560
<v Speaker 1>and have have the ability to move my players, have

0:19:20.720 --> 0:19:22.639
<v Speaker 1>the players are performing well, and if I want to

0:19:22.680 --> 0:19:24.840
<v Speaker 1>trade those, if I want to tweak my lineup, I

0:19:24.880 --> 0:19:27.560
<v Speaker 1>don't want to be sitting there with Chris Godwin on

0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:30.160
<v Speaker 1>a hobbled knee, whether he is playing or not playing,

0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:34.320
<v Speaker 1>and risk starting one in three instead of three and one.

0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:36.640
<v Speaker 1>And now I'm gonna position of weakness, and I've got

0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:38.719
<v Speaker 1>to make moves and I've got to try to, you know,

0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:41.480
<v Speaker 1>get my team back on track. Maybe in a Guillotine league.

0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Have already been cut, you know that's I'm not I

0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:46.959
<v Speaker 1>don't like these kind of players, and God bless them

0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:49.720
<v Speaker 1>for getting three years sixty million dollars off in a

0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:51.960
<v Speaker 1>c L. But Chris Godwin is not going to be

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:55.280
<v Speaker 1>on my rosters this year. I respect that. Let's take

0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 1>a break. Sure we come back. Let's talk about Matt

0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Ryan going to one of the few places where he's

0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 1>got some real continuing fantasy viability, and let's talk about

0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:25.600
<v Speaker 1>the brand new Cole when we come back. Welcome back

0:20:25.600 --> 0:20:30.119
<v Speaker 1>Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul Charchian, Matt Harrison, with you, Matt,

0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan. It was a weird week for Matt Ryan.

0:20:34.800 --> 0:20:37.680
<v Speaker 1>The Falcons told him we're gonna go make a play

0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:40.760
<v Speaker 1>for Deshaun Watson. He was very gracious about it, said,

0:20:40.960 --> 0:20:44.600
<v Speaker 1>allow me to push back the date of my signing bonus,

0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:47.200
<v Speaker 1>so you don't have to play it. Pay it because

0:20:47.320 --> 0:20:49.880
<v Speaker 1>you know you may trade me or whatever. Stand up guy.

0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:53.960
<v Speaker 1>And so then they don't get Deshaun Watson and they

0:20:54.000 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 1>still move Matt Ryan to the Colts, a team that's

0:20:57.000 --> 0:21:00.240
<v Speaker 1>in a win now mode for the tail end Matt

0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Ryan's career. I thought it was. I thought they Ryan

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:06.520
<v Speaker 1>handled it all very well and honestly for the Falcons,

0:21:07.359 --> 0:21:10.840
<v Speaker 1>other than you know, maybe trying to get to Shaun Watson,

0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:12.640
<v Speaker 1>which you could argue, you know, they should not have done.

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was they must have handled it pretty well.

0:21:15.320 --> 0:21:17.440
<v Speaker 1>By the way, how savvy are the Colts. They trade

0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:20.960
<v Speaker 1>away Carson Wentz for a second round pick swap, so

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.520
<v Speaker 1>they moved up seven places in the second round and

0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:26.280
<v Speaker 1>two round threes, and then they trade one of those

0:21:26.359 --> 0:21:30.760
<v Speaker 1>round threes for Matt Ryan. They moved up seven picks

0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:33.399
<v Speaker 1>in the draft and got a round three and maybe

0:21:33.520 --> 0:21:35.359
<v Speaker 1>got a better quarterback. And they got out of Wentz

0:21:35.440 --> 0:21:37.920
<v Speaker 1>his contract. They got all the Ryan's contract in the

0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Ryan's contract. It's a lot um, you know. I don't

0:21:42.160 --> 0:21:43.760
<v Speaker 1>dislike what we talked about it last week. I don't

0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:45.480
<v Speaker 1>dislike Wentz as much as most people do, and we

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:48.719
<v Speaker 1>talked about Wentz movie last week. But I like Ryan

0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:51.679
<v Speaker 1>here because he's going to do what Wentz couldn't do,

0:21:51.880 --> 0:21:55.040
<v Speaker 1>which is not making a lot of mistakes. He's a

0:21:55.080 --> 0:22:00.159
<v Speaker 1>proven veteran. The leadership qualities are undeniable. Um, and he's

0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:02.520
<v Speaker 1>got some pretty good targets to work with. Yeah, and

0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:06.440
<v Speaker 1>we're only three years removed from Matt Ryan almost hitting

0:22:06.440 --> 0:22:10.280
<v Speaker 1>a five thousand yard thirty five touchdown season, so uh,

0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:13.880
<v Speaker 1>it's really not that long ago. Ryan is slightly more

0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:18.840
<v Speaker 1>accurate than Carson Wentz to which is actually a little

0:22:18.840 --> 0:22:22.240
<v Speaker 1>bit more than slightly more. That's that those percentage points

0:22:22.280 --> 0:22:26.000
<v Speaker 1>are pretty big in the NFL H only a small

0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:28.480
<v Speaker 1>amount for average depth of target four point four to

0:22:28.560 --> 0:22:30.840
<v Speaker 1>four point two. So I don't think that this changes

0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:33.600
<v Speaker 1>things much for Michael Pittman. Maybe it bumps them up

0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:35.800
<v Speaker 1>a little. If they can get a weapon in the

0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:39.040
<v Speaker 1>draft to pair with Pittman, they kind of need to. UM.

0:22:39.080 --> 0:22:42.200
<v Speaker 1>And then having Jonathan Taylor in the backfield is always scary,

0:22:42.280 --> 0:22:46.159
<v Speaker 1>and you know, teams have to respect Jonathan Taylor's abilities

0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:49.160
<v Speaker 1>for sure. Obviously, a better offensive line for Matt Ryan

0:22:49.840 --> 0:22:52.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of skies the limit for him here. He could

0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:55.360
<v Speaker 1>he could like be like comeback player of the Year

0:22:55.400 --> 0:22:59.399
<v Speaker 1>in Indie this year, maybe, especially because the Colts defensively

0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:01.920
<v Speaker 1>can win on defense, you can win with running the ball.

0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan doesn't need to throw five thousand yards and

0:23:05.119 --> 0:23:07.119
<v Speaker 1>you and Frankly probably can't give him the receivers you have.

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:11.040
<v Speaker 1>T Y Hilton's probably done. Paris Campbell never healthy. I

0:23:11.080 --> 0:23:13.520
<v Speaker 1>love him, but never healthy, and mo Ali Cox might

0:23:13.560 --> 0:23:16.160
<v Speaker 1>be the second best receiver on the team. They need

0:23:16.280 --> 0:23:19.760
<v Speaker 1>receiver help still, and I think that may come in

0:23:19.800 --> 0:23:22.720
<v Speaker 1>the draft for Indianapolis and that might help Matt Ryan eventually.

0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:25.639
<v Speaker 1>Here yeah, if not, you're looking at Ashton Dulan and

0:23:25.760 --> 0:23:30.720
<v Speaker 1>Kiki Cutie. Yikes. While we're talking about Atlanta, let's go

0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:34.280
<v Speaker 1>to court Darryl Patterson, who resigns and patterson season was

0:23:34.320 --> 0:23:37.600
<v Speaker 1>fascinating Matt through the first half of the year. He

0:23:37.800 --> 0:23:42.480
<v Speaker 1>was the best story in fantasy football period, end of discussion.

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:44.639
<v Speaker 1>He was the best story. It was. He was a

0:23:44.760 --> 0:23:48.800
<v Speaker 1>He was a top ten fantasy running back when none

0:23:48.840 --> 0:23:52.000
<v Speaker 1>of us, nobody had any inkling anything like that was

0:23:52.040 --> 0:23:54.040
<v Speaker 1>going to happen, and some leagues still had him listed

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:58.360
<v Speaker 1>as wide receiver. The tweet of the week was when

0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan was traded way and Corderol Patterson tweeted that

0:24:02.480 --> 0:24:04.720
<v Speaker 1>video of the kid who was gonna steal Cam Newton's

0:24:04.800 --> 0:24:08.280
<v Speaker 1>spot warming up his arm and Corderrel Patterson's like, I'm

0:24:08.280 --> 0:24:13.400
<v Speaker 1>getting ready, guys, don't worry about it. Corderyl is a

0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:15.760
<v Speaker 1>great dude. Yeah, he's he's awesome. Had a handful of

0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:19.119
<v Speaker 1>interactions with him when he was with the Vikings. He's,

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:21.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, of of all the players you you don't

0:24:21.640 --> 0:24:24.359
<v Speaker 1>want to like just like hang out with and have

0:24:24.440 --> 0:24:27.560
<v Speaker 1>a few drinks, have a conversation, whatever, he'd be one

0:24:27.560 --> 0:24:30.199
<v Speaker 1>of the top guys. Absolutely awesome guy. And and he

0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:34.360
<v Speaker 1>gets Marcus Mariota um As as his quarterback this year,

0:24:34.359 --> 0:24:37.119
<v Speaker 1>probably a bridge quarterback. Atlanta is definitely in play. I

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:40.160
<v Speaker 1>think they pick at number eight. They're definitely in play,

0:24:40.280 --> 0:24:42.960
<v Speaker 1>especially if Malik Willis were to fall. I think that

0:24:42.960 --> 0:24:45.199
<v Speaker 1>that might be a landing spot for him, and agreed

0:24:45.240 --> 0:24:47.520
<v Speaker 1>they could have him, you know, learn a year under

0:24:47.560 --> 0:24:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Mariota um But yeah, so eight and nine. I don't

0:24:52.160 --> 0:24:54.400
<v Speaker 1>think Malik Willis gets past eight and nine. I don't

0:24:54.400 --> 0:24:57.359
<v Speaker 1>think he gets past two. Honest and detroited to was

0:24:57.400 --> 0:24:59.320
<v Speaker 1>the first place he could. He has a real chance

0:24:59.359 --> 0:25:02.080
<v Speaker 1>of going gets either destroyed at two or somebody's trading

0:25:02.160 --> 0:25:04.479
<v Speaker 1>up to two to get him. Yeah, that's it's so

0:25:04.560 --> 0:25:07.679
<v Speaker 1>early for him. Yeah, you know, Malik Wills would not

0:25:07.800 --> 0:25:10.240
<v Speaker 1>have been one of the top five quarterbacks taken last year,

0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:12.399
<v Speaker 1>and it goes highest two this year because you know,

0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:14.520
<v Speaker 1>it's all about what class you're in. I think the

0:25:14.600 --> 0:25:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Vegas odds have him at number two right now. Wow, yeah,

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:20.280
<v Speaker 1>I know, I don't know that I would go there,

0:25:20.600 --> 0:25:24.560
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, but Maria, Now, let's remember, Mario just got

0:25:24.640 --> 0:25:29.359
<v Speaker 1>real running ability that the Tennessee never really even tried

0:25:29.359 --> 0:25:32.359
<v Speaker 1>to unlock. It's a different NFL now, Matt. You know,

0:25:32.440 --> 0:25:35.400
<v Speaker 1>this is an NFL that has shown what Lamar Jackson

0:25:35.480 --> 0:25:39.320
<v Speaker 1>and Josh Allen can do when you just throw out

0:25:39.600 --> 0:25:41.680
<v Speaker 1>the idea that we're only going to use our quarterback

0:25:41.720 --> 0:25:44.280
<v Speaker 1>to scramble, that we're going to use designed runs and

0:25:44.359 --> 0:25:46.119
<v Speaker 1>a lot of them. And these are teams that have

0:25:46.119 --> 0:25:49.520
<v Speaker 1>been highly successful well. And when Mariota was in Tennessee,

0:25:49.840 --> 0:25:53.480
<v Speaker 1>it was on the back of Derrick Henry on everything.

0:25:53.560 --> 0:25:55.120
<v Speaker 1>It was just like, We're going to pound the rock

0:25:55.160 --> 0:25:57.240
<v Speaker 1>with Henry over and over and over again. And it

0:25:57.320 --> 0:26:03.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't alt ever running back. So it's although, but we

0:26:03.080 --> 0:26:05.840
<v Speaker 1>didn't get to the second half of Corderill season, which

0:26:05.880 --> 0:26:09.399
<v Speaker 1>was disaster. Everybody kind of figured it out along the

0:26:09.400 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 1>way The nice part about Atlanta as it sits right

0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:17.439
<v Speaker 1>now is there's two, maybe three guys for fantasy that

0:26:17.520 --> 0:26:21.040
<v Speaker 1>you'd even consider, and that's it. There's there's nobody else there.

0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:24.520
<v Speaker 1>It's Kyle Pitts, It's Cordarrell Patterson, and it's probably Mariota.

0:26:24.920 --> 0:26:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Those are probably the only guys that you would even

0:26:27.359 --> 0:26:29.720
<v Speaker 1>consider putting on your roster right now. They don't have

0:26:29.760 --> 0:26:32.040
<v Speaker 1>a running back to speak of, they have no other

0:26:32.080 --> 0:26:34.600
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers there. Calvin Ridley has gone for the year,

0:26:35.119 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 1>so I don't I don't quite know exactly what what

0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:40.600
<v Speaker 1>else you would do with Atlanta, So that makes it

0:26:40.680 --> 0:26:43.280
<v Speaker 1>kind of simple from a fantasy perspective. I think Kyle

0:26:43.320 --> 0:26:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Pitts gets hurt out of all of this. You know,

0:26:45.000 --> 0:26:47.600
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan was not great in these last couple of years,

0:26:47.600 --> 0:26:51.919
<v Speaker 1>but more accomplished. Pastor's steadier pastor than Marcus Mario likely

0:26:51.960 --> 0:26:55.040
<v Speaker 1>will be UM. But still that you know right now,

0:26:55.359 --> 0:26:57.600
<v Speaker 1>most of that offense goes through Kyle Pitts. From what

0:26:57.640 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 1>we can tell, ye Allen Robinson's signed with the Rams,

0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:04.760
<v Speaker 1>this is UM. He effectively takes the place, at least

0:27:04.760 --> 0:27:07.359
<v Speaker 1>for the moment of of Odell Beckham Um and with

0:27:07.480 --> 0:27:10.439
<v Speaker 1>Robert Wood's gone, and now you know there's in theory,

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:16.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of targets for Allen Robinson and the

0:27:16.080 --> 0:27:21.359
<v Speaker 1>first competent quarterback he's ever experienced. Yeah. Absolutely, Now Odell

0:27:21.400 --> 0:27:23.200
<v Speaker 1>he's a he had the knee injury, and he's a

0:27:23.280 --> 0:27:26.680
<v Speaker 1>free agent after the Super Bowl, so he's probably not

0:27:26.720 --> 0:27:30.119
<v Speaker 1>going to sign with anybody until at least training camp,

0:27:30.280 --> 0:27:32.680
<v Speaker 1>that would be the earliest, and it might might linger

0:27:32.760 --> 0:27:35.679
<v Speaker 1>on into the season. So Woods and Beckham like split

0:27:35.800 --> 0:27:38.800
<v Speaker 1>last year almost completely evenly because Woods got hurt, like

0:27:38.880 --> 0:27:43.320
<v Speaker 1>the day after Beckham was traded for Um. They combined

0:27:43.480 --> 0:27:47.320
<v Speaker 1>for a hundred and seventeen targets last year. That's about

0:27:47.359 --> 0:27:50.520
<v Speaker 1>where we're gonna probably put the Allen Robinson projections at

0:27:50.680 --> 0:27:53.800
<v Speaker 1>is one seventeen and every year that he's had over

0:27:53.840 --> 0:27:55.840
<v Speaker 1>a hundred targets in his year, he's been a really

0:27:55.880 --> 0:28:00.000
<v Speaker 1>great fantasy UH player. He only had sixty six targets

0:28:00.119 --> 0:28:04.600
<v Speaker 1>last year. What mel practice was that in Chicago? Justin Field?

0:28:04.640 --> 0:28:06.439
<v Speaker 1>You know how much of that's on Robinson, We don't know,

0:28:06.480 --> 0:28:09.840
<v Speaker 1>but most you presumably it was a very young green

0:28:09.960 --> 0:28:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Justin Fields, but Justin Fields managed to find Darnell Mooney, Yeah,

0:28:14.920 --> 0:28:17.879
<v Speaker 1>plenty of times. So absolutely I think that this helps

0:28:17.880 --> 0:28:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Cooper Cup in a way. Um, I mean probably, it's

0:28:21.560 --> 0:28:23.880
<v Speaker 1>it's probably close to a wash. Cooper Cup was so

0:28:24.320 --> 0:28:27.440
<v Speaker 1>awesome last year. It's it's not gonna help him too much.

0:28:27.520 --> 0:28:30.520
<v Speaker 1>But it hurts Van Jefferson, who was a dynasty stash

0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:34.160
<v Speaker 1>for me, just on the idea that Robert Woods might

0:28:34.160 --> 0:28:38.000
<v Speaker 1>not be ready, Odell Beckham might not be ready Van Jefferson,

0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:40.360
<v Speaker 1>I thought, hey, you might pop into a number two

0:28:40.480 --> 0:28:42.720
<v Speaker 1>role here, but that that didn't seem to work out, No,

0:28:42.800 --> 0:28:45.280
<v Speaker 1>it did not. Matthew Stafford got the extension. He'll be

0:28:45.400 --> 0:28:49.360
<v Speaker 1>the Rams quarterback for four more years. More years. Yeah,

0:28:49.480 --> 0:28:50.959
<v Speaker 1>I think it was a three year extension to give

0:28:51.000 --> 0:28:53.280
<v Speaker 1>him four more. He'll be at the bitter end of

0:28:53.360 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>his career four years from now. I mean it's gonna

0:28:55.320 --> 0:28:58.240
<v Speaker 1>be that's gonna be ringing every last pass out of

0:28:58.240 --> 0:29:01.520
<v Speaker 1>that arm. Yeah, he's gonna maybe look a little Peyton Manning.

0:29:02.440 --> 0:29:04.920
<v Speaker 1>He might, he might. I hope it doesn't come to that.

0:29:05.000 --> 0:29:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's hope not. Robert Woods, we mentioned traded to the Titans,

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:12.880
<v Speaker 1>so they've got a J. Brown and as awesome as

0:29:12.920 --> 0:29:15.720
<v Speaker 1>he is, he's hurt a lot. Here comes Robert Woods.

0:29:15.760 --> 0:29:18.880
<v Speaker 1>He's coming off. Was it a c L something like that?

0:29:18.920 --> 0:29:20.560
<v Speaker 1>If it was a c L, I'll tell I'll look

0:29:20.680 --> 0:29:24.560
<v Speaker 1>look at up. Woods effectively takes the Julio Jones role.

0:29:25.240 --> 0:29:27.920
<v Speaker 1>And Julio Jones was, you know, a little dinged up

0:29:28.000 --> 0:29:30.960
<v Speaker 1>himself throughout his career, more than a little and and

0:29:30.960 --> 0:29:33.960
<v Speaker 1>and Robert Woods is coming in in the same breath.

0:29:34.080 --> 0:29:37.520
<v Speaker 1>It's it's hard for me to feel better about Robert Woods,

0:29:37.520 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>who's about the same age as Julio, just thirty nine.

0:29:42.440 --> 0:29:45.240
<v Speaker 1>But what's up until this is thirty nine years old?

0:29:45.360 --> 0:29:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Is he is? How does that even make sense? Well,

0:29:49.520 --> 0:29:52.440
<v Speaker 1>you remember all those years of Buffalo where he did nothing?

0:29:52.520 --> 0:29:55.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, he's that always used him. He's thirty

0:29:55.720 --> 0:29:57.960
<v Speaker 1>nine years old. That's crazy, is it? It was an

0:29:57.960 --> 0:30:00.880
<v Speaker 1>a c L. And you know, for he was he's

0:30:00.960 --> 0:30:03.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of a low mileage guy because they just didn't Buffalo.

0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:10.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's like, sorry, he wasn't born

0:30:10.400 --> 0:30:14.400
<v Speaker 1>in the eighties in the NFL. I don't know why

0:30:14.400 --> 0:30:20.520
<v Speaker 1>I said. That was ridiculous. Um never top six touchdowns.

0:30:20.560 --> 0:30:23.160
<v Speaker 1>But we did see him, we did see him in

0:30:23.160 --> 0:30:27.000
<v Speaker 1>in years past. He had yards season and eleven yards

0:30:27.000 --> 0:30:28.720
<v Speaker 1>season with the Rams, and they ran him a lot,

0:30:29.200 --> 0:30:31.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, the in the seasons prior to last year's

0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:34.200
<v Speaker 1>nineteen runs, seventeen runs, twenty four runs, and it'll be

0:30:34.200 --> 0:30:36.920
<v Speaker 1>fascinating to see. And he chalked in some touchdowns that

0:30:36.920 --> 0:30:38.640
<v Speaker 1>way Too'll it'll be interesting to see if the Titans

0:30:38.680 --> 0:30:43.480
<v Speaker 1>do the same thing. Yeah, I just feel like he's

0:30:43.480 --> 0:30:47.240
<v Speaker 1>like a wide receiver five kind of a guy. I

0:30:47.240 --> 0:30:49.760
<v Speaker 1>think he's gonna get drafted above that from his past

0:30:49.840 --> 0:30:53.600
<v Speaker 1>track record. But it just feels like Tennessee's offense has

0:30:53.640 --> 0:30:55.680
<v Speaker 1>been so simple. It's been Henry, it's been Brown, it's

0:30:55.680 --> 0:30:58.000
<v Speaker 1>been Henry, it's been Brown, and they don't have room

0:30:58.080 --> 0:31:01.640
<v Speaker 1>for you know, those other guys. So another receiver coming

0:31:01.640 --> 0:31:04.520
<v Speaker 1>off a c L. Now, his his was earlier than

0:31:05.080 --> 0:31:06.959
<v Speaker 1>um we we're talking about before it was coming off

0:31:07.000 --> 0:31:09.920
<v Speaker 1>the a c L. It was Odell Beckham. Well even

0:31:09.960 --> 0:31:14.560
<v Speaker 1>before that, we were talking about Chris Chris god right. Now,

0:31:14.560 --> 0:31:16.280
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't take Godwin. He was like he had a

0:31:16.360 --> 0:31:19.240
<v Speaker 1>very late season one. But yeah, these are guys I'm

0:31:19.320 --> 0:31:23.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm mostly mostly avoiding my drafts, all right. Let's uh.

0:31:23.400 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, I think Woods I think woods

0:31:25.520 --> 0:31:27.400
<v Speaker 1>you see wide receiver five, I think it'll be more

0:31:27.440 --> 0:31:29.280
<v Speaker 1>like four. But either way, you know, we both would

0:31:29.280 --> 0:31:31.520
<v Speaker 1>be hesitant to make him. That's somebody you have to

0:31:31.520 --> 0:31:34.320
<v Speaker 1>rely on. D J. Moore signed an extension with possibly

0:31:34.320 --> 0:31:36.360
<v Speaker 1>the worst team that he could possibly be with from

0:31:36.360 --> 0:31:39.800
<v Speaker 1>a fantasy standpoint, Carolina. Yeah, you gotta figure that they

0:31:39.840 --> 0:31:42.320
<v Speaker 1>have to do something at the quarterback position. I believe

0:31:42.320 --> 0:31:46.520
<v Speaker 1>they're at six in the draft and Malik Willis Kenny Pickett,

0:31:46.600 --> 0:31:48.760
<v Speaker 1>it's probably one of those two guys that's going to

0:31:48.840 --> 0:31:51.920
<v Speaker 1>be drafted there. If not, if they like one a

0:31:51.960 --> 0:31:54.080
<v Speaker 1>lot more, I think that they might trade up with

0:31:54.120 --> 0:31:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Detroit at two because that wouldn't be too much capital

0:31:57.520 --> 0:31:59.800
<v Speaker 1>to trade up for, so you wouldn't think so. But

0:32:00.000 --> 0:32:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to go from six to two will probably cost you,

0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:05.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, cost you six. It will cost you next

0:32:05.160 --> 0:32:09.320
<v Speaker 1>year's first and next year's first minimum, ye minimum. So

0:32:09.600 --> 0:32:12.160
<v Speaker 1>either either you're two or your next year's first, one

0:32:12.160 --> 0:32:15.680
<v Speaker 1>of those. So I think so too. All right, let's

0:32:15.720 --> 0:32:18.400
<v Speaker 1>go to d J. Well, we were we were on

0:32:18.480 --> 0:32:21.720
<v Speaker 1>d J. Moore by the way. Um, there were thoughts

0:32:21.760 --> 0:32:24.560
<v Speaker 1>that that might be a landing spot for Baker Mayfield Carolina,

0:32:24.600 --> 0:32:27.720
<v Speaker 1>but Apparently that's not going to happen. It sounds like, yeah,

0:32:28.080 --> 0:32:31.200
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't look like Baker is interested in going to Carolina,

0:32:31.240 --> 0:32:34.760
<v Speaker 1>and Carolina is not interested in Baker. So I think

0:32:34.800 --> 0:32:38.560
<v Speaker 1>that's clear. That's notably. Your new signing quarterback for the

0:32:38.640 --> 0:32:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Saints is Jamis Winston is your old starting quarterback. Yeah,

0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:45.520
<v Speaker 1>I thought you know, Winston was a very hit and

0:32:45.560 --> 0:32:49.080
<v Speaker 1>miss fantasy quarterback last year, with some good games and

0:32:49.200 --> 0:32:53.000
<v Speaker 1>some terrible ones and then he uh, then he got

0:32:53.000 --> 0:32:55.760
<v Speaker 1>injured in his season ended. What are your thoughts on

0:32:55.760 --> 0:33:01.200
<v Speaker 1>on Winston? He does, at least in Eerie, get some

0:33:01.320 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 1>receiving help back, but it still doesn't feel like a

0:33:03.720 --> 0:33:09.120
<v Speaker 1>great situation for him. Winston had what let's see, he

0:33:09.160 --> 0:33:12.120
<v Speaker 1>had he had fourteen touchdowns last year. Yeah, but nine

0:33:12.120 --> 0:33:16.120
<v Speaker 1>were in two nine were against Green Bay and Washington, Yeah, exactly,

0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:19.000
<v Speaker 1>in two games. Everything else, everything else was pretty much

0:33:19.000 --> 0:33:23.760
<v Speaker 1>a disaster for him. Um. Now it sounds like Michael

0:33:23.760 --> 0:33:28.239
<v Speaker 1>Thomas there made return to Saints. Who knows they're all

0:33:28.240 --> 0:33:31.640
<v Speaker 1>the bad blood. I think what's happened is they've realized

0:33:32.000 --> 0:33:34.720
<v Speaker 1>nobody else is gonna pay and there's no there was

0:33:34.760 --> 0:33:37.760
<v Speaker 1>no equity. The Saints had no no ability to move him.

0:33:37.840 --> 0:33:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Nobody wanted Michael Thomas um after two smissing the better

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:44.440
<v Speaker 1>really all of the last two seasons, nobody, you know.

0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:46.560
<v Speaker 1>So they I think they're like, we're gonna you know,

0:33:46.600 --> 0:33:48.080
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna pay him, We're gonna play him, and we

0:33:48.080 --> 0:33:50.880
<v Speaker 1>need him and hope that he comes back at what

0:33:50.960 --> 0:33:53.840
<v Speaker 1>he was before the last two years. Yeah, that he's

0:33:53.880 --> 0:33:57.440
<v Speaker 1>going to be a super interesting guy to talk about

0:33:57.560 --> 0:34:00.120
<v Speaker 1>come August once we see him on the field. A

0:34:00.120 --> 0:34:02.920
<v Speaker 1>little bit bad match. The feeling last year going into

0:34:02.960 --> 0:34:04.440
<v Speaker 1>last year was that he was a bad match for

0:34:04.520 --> 0:34:09.200
<v Speaker 1>Jamis Winston because Winston's one redeeming value was his deep ball,

0:34:09.520 --> 0:34:12.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, the deep passes, and and Michael Thomas has

0:34:12.360 --> 0:34:16.480
<v Speaker 1>never shown the ability to be somebody who gets separation downfield.

0:34:16.719 --> 0:34:18.680
<v Speaker 1>It felt like a bad match last year. We never

0:34:18.680 --> 0:34:20.160
<v Speaker 1>got to see a play out on the field, and

0:34:20.160 --> 0:34:23.040
<v Speaker 1>it feels like a bad year batch this year. Yeah. Um,

0:34:23.080 --> 0:34:26.439
<v Speaker 1>I do like that the Saints have seemingly given up

0:34:26.840 --> 0:34:30.279
<v Speaker 1>on the notion that Taysom Hill is a starting quarterback. Well,

0:34:30.280 --> 0:34:32.719
<v Speaker 1>and Sean Payton's gun too, So I think that that

0:34:32.800 --> 0:34:36.760
<v Speaker 1>was a Sean Payton play right there. It probably is, uh,

0:34:36.840 --> 0:34:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Alvin Camara to me, if you I think it's about

0:34:39.280 --> 0:34:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the same as last year, Yeah, there's there's no difference there.

0:34:43.080 --> 0:34:46.560
<v Speaker 1>He's just the focal point of that offense. Right, Losing

0:34:46.560 --> 0:34:50.520
<v Speaker 1>tarn Armstrong is not a trivial No, and and and

0:34:50.640 --> 0:34:52.239
<v Speaker 1>Camara is a guy who's still going to go in

0:34:52.239 --> 0:34:54.560
<v Speaker 1>the first round. And he's a guy that I'll probably

0:34:54.600 --> 0:34:56.920
<v Speaker 1>avoid this year because I think I want to get

0:34:56.960 --> 0:34:59.640
<v Speaker 1>out a year early on Camara than the year too late.

0:35:00.160 --> 0:35:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Alvin Camery, you know his age thirty nine? Alright, no, no, no,

0:35:07.400 --> 0:35:13.399
<v Speaker 1>amazing uh career for the year old. He's twenty six.

0:35:13.440 --> 0:35:17.600
<v Speaker 1>He's played in five seasons so far. Um, I don't

0:35:17.600 --> 0:35:21.359
<v Speaker 1>think he's reached the end of the road. But this

0:35:21.400 --> 0:35:22.840
<v Speaker 1>is the beginning of the end of the road for

0:35:22.920 --> 0:35:25.320
<v Speaker 1>most running backs, it is for most this is about

0:35:25.320 --> 0:35:29.040
<v Speaker 1>the end of it. But last year his yards per carry,

0:35:29.080 --> 0:35:31.759
<v Speaker 1>which is not always the best stat but yards per

0:35:31.800 --> 0:35:38.839
<v Speaker 1>carry three point seven. Yeah, they had no passing game

0:35:38.880 --> 0:35:41.120
<v Speaker 1>to speak. They didn't end. But his receiving numbers are

0:35:41.120 --> 0:35:44.480
<v Speaker 1>way down too. For after an entire career of having

0:35:44.520 --> 0:35:48.200
<v Speaker 1>between eighty one and eighty three receptions in four straight seasons.

0:35:48.880 --> 0:35:52.760
<v Speaker 1>At forty seven receptions. The defense is new. The quarterback

0:35:52.800 --> 0:35:55.040
<v Speaker 1>in the passing game was so wrong and so bad.

0:35:55.600 --> 0:35:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Defense is new. You take stop out, you take away

0:35:58.000 --> 0:36:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Alvin Camara. Nobody make and beat you with whatever else? Yes,

0:36:02.360 --> 0:36:07.040
<v Speaker 1>with you know Marcuez, Uh, Mark Halloway, Halloway exactly, exactly.

0:36:07.440 --> 0:36:11.640
<v Speaker 1>All right. Let's one final note. Jets, No sorry, Buffalo Bills.

0:36:12.000 --> 0:36:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Jamison Crowder moves from the Jets to Buffalo. Duke Johnson,

0:36:15.080 --> 0:36:17.240
<v Speaker 1>who finished the season with a couple of nice games

0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:20.600
<v Speaker 1>last season for Miami, goes to Buffalo as well. Yeah,

0:36:20.640 --> 0:36:27.759
<v Speaker 1>effectively replacing j. D. Mckissic in Buffalo, and was like, Nah,

0:36:27.800 --> 0:36:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go back and everybody hates that. Uh, and

0:36:31.920 --> 0:36:34.719
<v Speaker 1>then uh, Cole Beasley has gone. Jameson Crowder will be

0:36:34.719 --> 0:36:37.680
<v Speaker 1>your starting slot receiver as it stands right now. Yeah,

0:36:37.680 --> 0:36:40.719
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of wide receivers in this depth chart

0:36:40.800 --> 0:36:44.600
<v Speaker 1>to Stephan Diggs, Gabriel Davis who had the huge game

0:36:44.640 --> 0:36:48.480
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs, Emmanuel Sanders is still there, and Isaiah

0:36:48.560 --> 0:36:52.360
<v Speaker 1>mackenzie was a guy that they re upped this offseason. Two.

0:36:53.160 --> 0:36:56.839
<v Speaker 1>Diggs had some cryptic tweets a day or two ago.

0:36:56.960 --> 0:37:01.120
<v Speaker 1>He said, it's it's it's never person, it's just business.

0:37:02.560 --> 0:37:05.879
<v Speaker 1>That's that's Stefan saying I need more money, I need

0:37:05.920 --> 0:37:10.080
<v Speaker 1>more money, or trade me. Well, that's what the Vikings

0:37:10.120 --> 0:37:13.200
<v Speaker 1>got stuck with. Well, And and we've seen Adams moved

0:37:13.239 --> 0:37:15.799
<v Speaker 1>from the Hall of Fame caliber quarterback away, We've seen

0:37:15.920 --> 0:37:18.919
<v Speaker 1>Hill moved from Hall of Fame caliber quarterback away. Could

0:37:18.920 --> 0:37:24.480
<v Speaker 1>we see Digs just force his way out maybe, and

0:37:24.680 --> 0:37:27.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, try to put himself in a spot where

0:37:27.400 --> 0:37:31.920
<v Speaker 1>maybe he ends up in Florida somewhere Jacksonville or Tampa

0:37:31.960 --> 0:37:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Bay or something like that, a place where maybe they

0:37:34.680 --> 0:37:37.239
<v Speaker 1>have a little bit of money that Jacksonville certainly would

0:37:37.280 --> 0:37:39.600
<v Speaker 1>have would have had the money to spend if they

0:37:39.640 --> 0:37:44.120
<v Speaker 1>wanted to. But you imagine Jacksonville trading, you know, pick

0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:49.400
<v Speaker 1>number one for Stefon Diggs. Straight up, No, I don't,

0:37:49.719 --> 0:37:50.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I don't. I don't think that. I

0:37:50.960 --> 0:37:53.160
<v Speaker 1>don't think he would command that right now, you gotta

0:37:53.200 --> 0:37:55.520
<v Speaker 1>take you gotta take dig salary. And you know, and

0:37:55.560 --> 0:38:04.120
<v Speaker 1>they just committed eighty million dollars to Christian Kirk. Last thing,

0:38:04.160 --> 0:38:06.600
<v Speaker 1>let's talk Duke Johnson for just a minute at as

0:38:07.200 --> 0:38:11.800
<v Speaker 1>in a real rarity for the NFL, it almost never happens.

0:38:12.800 --> 0:38:18.040
<v Speaker 1>We saw Devin Singletary in year three finally put it

0:38:18.080 --> 0:38:22.640
<v Speaker 1>all together when he had done nothing. Yeah, he couldn't

0:38:22.640 --> 0:38:25.680
<v Speaker 1>have looked more ordinary for every other part of his

0:38:25.800 --> 0:38:28.800
<v Speaker 1>career and then comes screaming down to the second half

0:38:28.920 --> 0:38:31.560
<v Speaker 1>of the year last year and ends up with a

0:38:31.680 --> 0:38:34.839
<v Speaker 1>really nice season. They bring in and Zack Moss just

0:38:34.920 --> 0:38:38.920
<v Speaker 1>totally phased out of that offense um. And so now

0:38:39.120 --> 0:38:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the presumption is that Duke Johnson will have every opportunity

0:38:42.560 --> 0:38:45.439
<v Speaker 1>to at least be the backup running back behind Singletary. Yeah,

0:38:45.440 --> 0:38:48.080
<v Speaker 1>you think that he'd be involved in the passing game

0:38:48.120 --> 0:38:50.799
<v Speaker 1>a lot too. But I mean, if you look at

0:38:51.360 --> 0:38:55.439
<v Speaker 1>down the stretch for the Bills, uh, Devin Singletary had

0:38:55.480 --> 0:38:59.040
<v Speaker 1>one game in week fifteen with twenty two carries, a

0:38:59.080 --> 0:39:01.960
<v Speaker 1>game in week seven team with twenty three carries, but

0:39:02.080 --> 0:39:08.239
<v Speaker 1>then it was twelve ten eight seven seven. That's just

0:39:08.239 --> 0:39:10.480
<v Speaker 1>how the Bills put. Bills are just they put that

0:39:10.520 --> 0:39:13.600
<v Speaker 1>ball in Josh Allen's hand, and they're gonna make plays

0:39:13.640 --> 0:39:16.040
<v Speaker 1>with Josh Allen, whether it's with his arm or his feet,

0:39:16.120 --> 0:39:20.080
<v Speaker 1>and that's how that offense works. So with Duke Johnson there,

0:39:20.560 --> 0:39:23.400
<v Speaker 1>maybe just because of the passing game aspect and the

0:39:23.880 --> 0:39:27.239
<v Speaker 1>last Um. I think that that's what makes him kind

0:39:27.239 --> 0:39:29.120
<v Speaker 1>of interesting. He's going to be like a late round,

0:39:29.200 --> 0:39:31.480
<v Speaker 1>best ball kind of guy that I think that you

0:39:31.520 --> 0:39:34.120
<v Speaker 1>could slot in in the eighteenth round and feel pretty

0:39:34.160 --> 0:39:36.360
<v Speaker 1>good about it. Yeah. I like him in that format

0:39:36.400 --> 0:39:40.040
<v Speaker 1>more than than most others. Um. Yeah, Duke Johnson's a

0:39:40.719 --> 0:39:42.760
<v Speaker 1>We've always wanted him, or at least I've always wanted

0:39:42.840 --> 0:39:45.160
<v Speaker 1>him to be more of a pass catching back than

0:39:45.239 --> 0:39:48.640
<v Speaker 1>he's ultimately ended up being. But I you know, maybe

0:39:48.680 --> 0:39:50.120
<v Speaker 1>this is a team that will unlock a little bit

0:39:50.160 --> 0:39:52.200
<v Speaker 1>of that. Although Singletary can catch two so they don't

0:39:52.200 --> 0:39:54.920
<v Speaker 1>even need to use if they don't want. By the way,

0:39:55.000 --> 0:39:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Duke Johnson thirty nine years old, Really yeah, that looks good.

0:39:59.160 --> 0:40:02.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean this, ty, this is a strange, strange year

0:40:02.520 --> 0:40:06.960
<v Speaker 1>for those wide, all these fantasy players who are born

0:40:07.080 --> 0:40:17.200
<v Speaker 1>in five four. It's really weird, very big year. I

0:40:17.239 --> 0:40:19.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know. Um, all right, We've we've had a lot

0:40:19.960 --> 0:40:22.200
<v Speaker 1>of fun. Thank you for listening, everybody. If you want

0:40:22.239 --> 0:40:24.360

<v Speaker 1>not miss any episodes of it. I think we'll next

0:40:30.320 --> 0:40:34.200
<v Speaker 1>week will also be a will also be more of

0:40:34.360 --> 0:40:36.640
<v Speaker 1>free agency, and it'll be won't be as big as

0:40:36.640 --> 0:40:39.560
<v Speaker 1>moves as these, And then we're gonna start working on April,

0:40:39.680 --> 0:40:42.440
<v Speaker 1>start working on all our draft stuff, getting all prepped

0:40:42.480 --> 0:40:45.320
<v Speaker 1>up for the draft, favorite players, landing spots, who we

0:40:45.360 --> 0:40:48.480
<v Speaker 1>want to see go where. To me, this is like

0:40:48.560 --> 0:40:51.680
<v Speaker 1>the least exciting draft from a fantasy standpoint that I've seen.

0:40:51.760 --> 0:40:54.319
<v Speaker 1>But maybe like doing all the research will really hypen it.

0:40:54.560 --> 0:40:56.600
<v Speaker 1>And I'll do a little bit of that. Um, you

0:40:56.640 --> 0:40:59.160
<v Speaker 1>know it's I think it's because the running back positions

0:40:59.320 --> 0:41:01.640
<v Speaker 1>generally down own this year and there's probably not a

0:41:01.680 --> 0:41:05.360
<v Speaker 1>running first round running back quarterback positions down uh no

0:41:05.520 --> 0:41:07.840
<v Speaker 1>tight end of the first round, and so it's a

0:41:07.840 --> 0:41:11.200
<v Speaker 1>good receiver draft. But that's that's from a fantasy standpoint,

0:41:11.239 --> 0:41:15.279
<v Speaker 1>that's it. Ye, So you know, but you know it,

0:41:15.280 --> 0:41:17.480
<v Speaker 1>it always turns out that there are great players to

0:41:17.480 --> 0:41:19.760
<v Speaker 1>be had. We'll find them. We will try to unearth

0:41:19.840 --> 0:41:22.479
<v Speaker 1>the great job today, Matt, appreciate it. Thank you, thanks
