Here's your host, Paul. Welcome to 0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:29.480 another edition of Fantasy Football Weekly, your number twenty seven, 0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:33.320 episode number two. I am Paul Charge and Guillotine Leagues 0:00:33.400 --> 0:00:36.520 dot Com. My co host today Matt Harrison from Shock 0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:41.960 Fantasy and Brian Johnson Guillotine Leagues dot Com. What's up, boys. 0:00:42.560 --> 0:00:45.480 Good to see it's great death preseason action in full 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:50.400 force again, Because as much as people crap on preseason play, 0:00:50.800 --> 0:00:57.200 you get things like Romandre Stevenson opening opening eyes and 0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:00.200 Mac Jones looking competent, and you know, you get you 0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:04.959 get storylines that I love following and fantasy players care about. 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:09.759 And in that vein, we're gonna touch on the biggest 0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.839 storyline over the last week for each of the thirty 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:15.760 two teams. We're gonna later in the show hit on 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:20.200 all the traits of a sleeper running back. I challenge 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:23.080 Matt Harrison to look through years of data and identify 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:26.800 what are the traits that helped sleeper running backs hit 0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:32.759 and challenge accepted. Challenge accepted. The Peacock Off. We will 0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:36.240 each have two bold predictions from our hosts. That will 0:01:36.280 --> 0:01:39.399 be a total of six bold predictions, and when they 0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:47.200 come right, we will theretis took a minute. The peacock 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:48.880 was sleeping. I had to wake up the peak and 0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.680 you couldn't find your peacock. I'm in preseason for myself. 0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:54.880 Over here will we will unleash our sleepers of the 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.280 week as well and answer three tough questions. Let's go 0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:00.760 to the training camps around the league, beginning with Matt 0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:04.840 the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers are an Indie for joint 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:07.720 practices this week. And I'm not even trying to make 0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:10.680 anyone on this show happy, but about a third of 0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:14.079 the stories from Panthers camp are talking about the connection 0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:17.600 between a certain quarterback and a certain tight end. Oh boy, 0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:25.440 Sam Darnald and Dan Arnold. The Darnold Arnold connection. Yeah, 0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:28.040 it looks like it's a thing, and we're seeing Dan 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:32.880 Arnold is starting to get taken in fantasy drafts. But yeah, 0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:37.000 let's remember you've been wrong for two years. Okay, let's 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.560 you know, let's save the two years. So yeah, yes, 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.360 we're not. No, it was two years ago. I was 0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:45.799 telling you on this very show to d draft the 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:49.320 guy named Darren Waller as the sleep summer Sleeper segment. 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:51.640 So you've only been wrong for one calendar year on 0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:53.840 Dan Arnold. Is that what you're saying. I don't know 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:59.000 what I was really necessarily wrong on. Yeah, pretty much 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:02.960 did find the tape Oakland and not Oakland the Las 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:06.639 Vegas Raiders. Brian speaking of Darren Waller, what is up 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:10.120 with Darren Waller? He hasn't practiced in like ten days. 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:13.840 Kind of scary, but he's been around. I've seen him 0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:17.160 working on the sidelines and sweatpants. He's not it doesn't 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.320 have a noticeable limp or anything like that. So we're 0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:22.239 gonna be optimistic with Darren Waller, but not practicing. Hopefully 0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:25.560 they're just being extra cautious with him. Obviously the offense 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:29.200 revolves around Waller. Last year he led all tight ends 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:32.640 and yards after the catch with five. How impressive is that? 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:35.480 He's probably, I bet among all tight ends for total yards. 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:38.960 He was like guards after It's like fourth or something. Well, 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:41.800 Davante Adams led all wide receivers and yards after the 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.360 catch with five. D eighty four. That's ten less yards 0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:47.000 and Darren Wallers yards after the catch. Yeah, it's pretty good, 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:50.280 so pretty hopefully Waller is okay. He should be uh 0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:53.080 for the Packers. Aaron Jones is nursing hamstring injury. Don't 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:54.400 be surprised if you don't see him at all in 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.040 the preseason. In the eyes of many, the star of 0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:01.720 Packers camp is tight end Robert Tounyon. He's looked more explosive, 0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:06.040 He's getting opened down field more Aaron Rodgers. Obviously he's back. 0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:09.560 Tonyon is being underdrafted. In my personal opinion, Let's go 0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:12.360 to the Washington football team. Matt Um, You're not gonna 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:15.800 like this one chart, but Stu Beard Ryan Fitzpatrick was 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:19.559 asked about, you know, playing quarterback in Washington and he said, 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:24.600 I'm playing on borrowed time. And Washington has also been 0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:27.880 saying that Taylor Heineke is an actual threat to steal 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:30.719 this job from Ryan Fitzpatrick. I thought in the preseason 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:35.960 game that on on Thursday night that Fitzpatrick looked pretty 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:38.160 dawn good. How did he look capable? Not great? Would 0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:42.080 look capable, And that's better, frankly better quarterbacking than Washington 0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:44.520 in a while, Brian, let's go to the Buffalo Bills. 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:48.640 Bad news out of Buffalo. Our boy Zack Moss currently 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:52.400 dealing with a hamstring strain. UH last season basically marred 0:04:52.400 --> 0:04:54.360 by an ankle injury. This is not a good start 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:57.560 to his what's supposed to be a bounce back campaign 0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:00.360 for Moss. I'm certainly invested in that, and right now 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.320 I'm a little worried. Devin Singletary obviously gets a bump 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:06.159 of moss Mrs time, and Matt Barrita has looked pretty 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.039 good in camp for the Bills, so he becomes pretty 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:13.039 relevant if Moss. It seems like a sad trombone is 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:16.200 worth this for you know, Mitchell true Bisky's in Buffalo too, 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.520 and Zack Moss is getting hurt. You made that work 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:22.919 feeling bad. I don't need an excuse to use the 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:26.400 trombone sound. But the Texans they release their depth chart 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:30.000 and it looks like they basically just drew names randomly 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:32.680 across their entire depth chart because they're trying to be 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.720 so tricky with how they treat the media. Nobody releasing, 0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:38.480 Oh well, we don't buy by shuffling our depth chart. 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.800 We're gonna get We're gonna get extra wins this year 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:44.520 by faking everybody out with an untrue depth chart. They've 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:48.400 got Philip Lindsay and mark Ingram listed as their co 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:52.880 starting running backs. Tyrod Taylor was the top quarterback with 0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:56.520 the Shawn Watson fourth, and Chris Conley is the starting 0:05:56.520 --> 0:06:03.760 wide receiver. Okay, let's go to the Lions. Matt. There's 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.320 not a lot to report here, but Dan Campbell drinks 0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:08.240 a ton of caffeine and he thinks of VENTI is 0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:13.240 forty ounces, so it is venti venti. That's the That's 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.160 the update, is that that's a lot of caffe Yeah, 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:18.400 he likes caffee. I still refuse to say venti and 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:22.600 whatever the other snow sizes. They always give you the 0:06:22.600 --> 0:06:25.279 stink I, but I don't care. Let's go to the 0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:29.479 Cleveland Browns. Ryan. There's usually something bad happening in Cleveland, 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:33.560 like Baker Mayfield beef in with Colin Coward or someone's 0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:35.480 getting hurt for the year. But all is well right 0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:37.400 now in Cleveland, and I hope I'm not drinking them 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:40.880 and uh Odell Beckham looking very spry and camping right now, 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.480 going in the late twenties, at wide receiver. I like 0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.440 that cost for someone with the ceiling that's still very 0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:49.760 high when healthy. It's not like Odell Beckham's old at 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:51.919 this stage. He just hasn't been able to perform for 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:56.000 quite a while. Give Kevin Stefanski some credit because when 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:58.360 he walked in there, you know, basically one year ago, 0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:05.839 there were still tons of Cleveland turmoil. Kevin Stefanski has solidified, 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:10.040 steadied the entire organization, and Andrew Berry as well, a 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:14.720 lot of positive steam coming out of Cleveland. The Colts, 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:19.000 obviously at Carson Wentz. Quentin Nelson had the foot surgery 0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:22.000 we talked about last last show, and everybody knows about that. 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:24.760 But new this week ESPN and Chris Mortenson reporting that 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:28.440 they're trending too closer to a week one availability. You know, 0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:31.040 it's still very early in the timetable for these guys. 0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:32.480 You know, they just got the surgery a week ago. 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:35.720 So I don't think anybody really knows, but um, perhaps 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:37.720 there's some good news there, and I think we're gonna 0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:40.840 see Jonathan Taylor's ADP rise back up again. Let's go 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:44.120 to the Seattle Seahawks. Matt left tackle Dwayne Brown is 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:47.680 still holding in as in, he's attending practices but not 0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.200 doing anything until he gets a new contract. That's how 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:52.800 you avoid the fifty a day fine and not showing up. 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:56.040 By the way, show up, but I'm not doing anything. Uh. 0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:58.360 The Seahawks are trying to install a new offense under 0:07:58.360 --> 0:08:01.360 new coordinator Shane Waldron, so it's worth keeping an eye 0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:05.240 on Dwyane Brown holding in. Let's go to the Jets. 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:09.320 Elijah More, rookie wide receiver. Everyone's very high on high 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.760 on him. Um has a quad issue, currently getting an 0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:14.160 m R I. That's not good. Denzel Mims has looked 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:17.239 really bad. Apparently he lost twenty pounds due to eating 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:20.160 bad salmon. Uh during the off season. So James and 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:22.960 crowd are all of a sudden, you should be creeping 0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:26.160 up how much salmon, I don't know, but just enough. 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:30.440 He's a lot of bad salmon. By the way, bad salmon. 0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:33.480 To me, it's just redundant pretty much. Did he did 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:37.600 have one bad experience with salmon and lost from it 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:42.040 or just continuously ate the bad salmon for weeks and weeks? Well, 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:45.640 Braxton Barrios is already a thing and rulling preseason week two. 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.480 That's not good. Good news for the Jets. Kansas City's 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.600 rebuild offensive line took a bit of a blow with 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:54.319 Lauren DuVernay tard If breaking his hand he was He's 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:57.440 expected to miss at least a few regular season games, 0:08:57.960 --> 0:09:00.680 and the team's guard behind him, Kyle Long, is on 0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:02.640 the pup list, so we don't know about his availability. 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:06.000 So the offensive line for Kansas City with a little 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.480 bit of turmoil right now. Let's head to Philadelphia. Mattu 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:12.480 DeVonta Smith is dealing with an mcl S brain He's 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.120 expected to be sidelined for the rest of August. Also, 0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:19.200 left tackle Andre Dillard suffered a nice brain on Tuesday. 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:22.720 So just like every year in Philly, the injury bug 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:25.560 is back there. I don't know how they keep doing this. 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:31.000 Denver Broncos Bryant Denver here in Minnesota right now to 0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:34.600 play this weekend. UH. Mike Boone former Viking Mike Boone 0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:36.880 pulled his quad for the Broncos, but he's number three 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:40.880 behind UH Melvin Gordon, Javante Adams. Uh. Not a lot 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:44.480 of a big effect for Boone being hurt. Courtland Sutton 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.160 looks great. Jerry Judy is going to be a nice guy. 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.080 Alongside Sutton. Everyone likes no a fan. It's all about 0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:52.120 who's who's going to be the quarterback in Denver, and 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:55.040 we still do not know. That's probably the most battle 0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:57.960 rooting for Drew Lock to look better and win that 0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.880 job because he can't produce fantasy points. He seems like 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:05.679 he is now the forgotten man. Among the Rams wide 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:10.800 outs is DeShawn Jackson. He's impressed thoroughly throughout camp and 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:14.760 looks fast, he looks healthy. There's a good chance that 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.920 he will be the starting receiver opposite Robert Woods on 0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:22.439 opening day. And basically, going undrafted, you can you can 0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:24.360 get the You can get a starting wide receiver for 0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:27.280 the Rams at virtually no cost right now, Deshan Jackson 0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:30.040 until he gets injured in week one and then you 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:31.520 punt him. Then you punt him and you go pick 0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:34.200 somebody else up. You put Sammy Watkins into Shawn Jackson 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:38.679 in your week one and then let's go to the 0:10:38.720 --> 0:10:41.960 Dallas Cowboys. Dak Prescott has an m r I scheduled 0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:45.319 for Monday. But don't worry about it, says the Dallas Cowboys. 0:10:45.400 --> 0:10:48.720 Pr Nothing to see here, h They're saying it doesn't 0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:51.720 indicate a setback, but things aren't progressing quite as quickly 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.040 as the Cowboys want it, and it sounds like they 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.280 may hold him out of the entirety of the preseason. 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:58.720 That means you get a lot of Garrett Gilbert and 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:04.440 Ben d Nucci this August. Yeah, I I drafted last night, 0:11:04.280 --> 0:11:07.480 I drafted Ceedee Lamb. And because it's a guillotine format, 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:09.559 I'm really worried about these early season games. Sure I 0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:12.000 get knocked out for the year, and like, oh man, 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:16.040 I really hope, I really really hope Dak Prescott's back. 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:19.080 Let's go to the Miami Dolphins. Brian rookie wide receiver 0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:22.880 Jalen Waddle has looked phenomenal, especially in joint practices against 0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:26.560 the Bears, just burning everybody. He's going after Will Fuller 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.120 right now is wide receiver forty eight Waddle. That is 0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:31.800 but a little bit before Davante Parker. Waddle is already 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:34.280 getting drafted head of Parker, but Waddle looks like he 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:36.440 might be the wide receiver you want on this team, 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:39.360 especially based on adp right. Will Fuller still not a 0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:42.920 factor at this stage. Uh. Last week I talked about 0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:46.520 the Vikings offensive line woes, and I was hoping as 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:48.440 a Viking fan that I'd be able to talk about 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:50.960 it getting better this week, but no, Dice. Uh. First 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:54.840 round draft pick Christian Darrisaw underwent a second core surgery 0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:58.600 and he's unlikely to return to practice until close to September. 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.280 So far, he has yet to have a full practice 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.280 with the team this year. O t a s mini camp. 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:08.560 Now training camp sounds crazing games. Yeah so again, take 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:11.960 a little caution in this Vikings offensive line. Matt, Let's 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.280 go to the Giants. Se Kwan Barkley activated from the 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:18.160 pup and he started practicing on Monday. But Kenny Golladay 0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:20.559 went the opposite way. He's dealing with a hamstring injury 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.320 and it looks like he won't see any action until 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:24.920 the end of the preseason. Brian, The Patriots played Thursday 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:27.839 night in a game that had a number of positive storylines. 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.160 Yeah so. Back on August four, when asked what rookie 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:35.000 running back Ramandre Stevenson needed to improve upon, Patriots running 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:39.679 back coach Ivan Feeders said everything, and then Ramandre Stevenson 0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:45.679 reels off a sixty plus yard touchdown on touchdown um at. 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:49.760 Stevenson also totaled nine hundred yards across his last six 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:53.640 college games. And by the way, Patriots running backs coach 0:12:53.800 --> 0:12:58.840 Ivan Feeders played wide receiver in college and he's been 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:02.439 the running back coach since two thousand and one. It's 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:07.360 a long time something about Tom Brady like he's kept 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:09.560 his like the running backs with the Patriots, that they 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:12.480 ever developed the running back there ever, No, so I 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.480 don't They don't know what they're talking about there. There's 0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:17.840 a big dip on Remondress of experience stuff I don't know. 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:21.520 Let's also remember Damian Harris got all the first team 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:24.120 looks and I thought he looked pretty good. Um, they 0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:26.400 pulled him out on third downs. They put in you know, 0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:30.240 James James White and others. Um, but Damian Harris got 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.240 all the first team looks. And let's not forget about 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:35.920 that part. But Remander Stevenson looked good and either like 0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:38.800 late second quarter or maybe it was early third quarter. 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:42.480 Goal line work for Remandre Stevenson as well, and he 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:45.280 has built for it. Baby, do not let him and 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:48.360 your standard redraft leagues. He should not go one drafted 0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.480 this year. Didn't mention mac Jones. I thought mac Jones 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.720 looked pretty good and back up and it was Yeah, 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.920 I was back up for the Saints. Marquez Callaway is 0:13:56.920 --> 0:14:00.280 your team's number one wide out. Michael Thomas is out 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:03.600 with an ankle injury, tray Kwon Smith has an undisclosed injury, 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:08.000 and Deonta Harris is facing possible suspension for his July 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:11.360 d U I. Uh, Callaway going off the board in 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:15.000 the nine round. You could have a team's number one 0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:17.800 wide receiver in the nineteenth round. Sounds like Alvin kamaras 0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:21.560 the top wide receiver there. Atlanta Falcons Matt. Uh, they're 0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:23.960 not feeling all that great about their running backs, so 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:29.120 they just signed Uh Deonta Foreman. Yeah, he's back again. Uh, 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:32.280 that depth chart is very strange and Foreman might actually 0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:35.680 have a shot to get some snaps this year. Uh, 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:38.880 let's go to the Titans. Derrick Henry is getting very 0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:42.720 limited reps in practice and basically throughout throughout camp, but 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:45.080 they're just being uber cautious with him. He doesn't really 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:47.920 need practice on in running people over like he's done 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:50.920 year in year out. But get to know Darrienton Evans 0:14:51.000 --> 0:14:54.200 even must handcuff if you have Henry on roster, but 0:14:54.240 --> 0:14:57.080 a guy I'm targeting even if I don't have Henry 0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:58.960 on roster, because if something happens to Henry, that's a 0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:01.400 lotto ticket right there. That's gonna vault your team near 0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:05.400 the top. We've seen two preseason games from the Steelers already. 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.640 Many teams have played zero. Um, you know, so uh, 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:12.360 this is uh, this is a note. Uh. Najie Harris 0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:15.680 has looked pretty good so far. The box scores don't 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.120 necessarily showed. He had two longer runs. He got called 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:22.400 back on penalty on Thursday night. Um, But to this point, 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:25.160 Najie Harris has looked requisite of the first round running 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:28.400 back that they expect him to be, and so far 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:32.160 green lights. Let's go to the Cardinals. Speaking of running backs, 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:34.800 the Cardinals don't have a first round running back that 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:37.280 they're talking about because they keep saying Chase Edmonds and 0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:40.640 James Conner are splitting the backfield. Everything that's coming out 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.760 of camp, quotes from the coaches, quotes from the players, 0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:47.240 it's going to be a completely split backfield all year. 0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.120 James Connor is not good unless James Connor gets hurt, 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.520 which he usually does. Her right now, Yeah, so you 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:54.880 know if that he doesn't bounce back, let's go to 0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:58.000 the Bengals, uh fifth overall pick in the first wide 0:15:58.000 --> 0:16:02.840 receiver taken on Jamark. Chase have separation issues apparently can't 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:06.560 his mom. But this has been an issue in college, 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:09.960 I suppose. But he was the number one drafted wide 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:12.400 receiver and he's the first wide receiver getting taken and 0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:15.360 Redraft Best Ball Leagues over Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd. 0:16:15.880 --> 0:16:18.120 I got that completely the other way I got I 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:21.080 got Chase last, especially based on how expensive he is 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:24.080 compared to the other two. So but Chase not great 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:26.000 reports coming out of camp so far for him, which 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:27.960 you don't want to hear. One of the forty Niners 0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:31.800 Beat reporters has logged every single training camp pass for 0:16:31.920 --> 0:16:37.200 Jimmy Garoppolo and Trey Lance, and through midweek, Garoppolo had 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:40.440 a sixty two percent completion rate, which is okay, alright, 0:16:40.760 --> 0:16:45.720 six touchdowns, six interceptions. That's not god ideal. Trey Lance 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:51.960 seventy percent completion rate seems better. Ten touchdown passes, two 0:16:52.040 --> 0:16:57.920 rushing touchdowns and only two interceptions. Just saying just saying, yeah, 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:00.680 it's coming, all right, let's go to Chicago Bears. I 0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:03.320 want to talk about a rookie quarterback to um Justin 0:17:03.400 --> 0:17:05.800 Fields has been absolutely tearing it up in camp. The 0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:08.480 Bears had some joint practices with the Dolphins this week. 0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:12.359 In a six snap span, which is a tongue twister, 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:17.600 Fields through for three touchdown passes against the Dolphins defense 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:21.639 and ran for one in six snaps. It's impressive. Yeah, 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.280 it's a nice efficiency. It's a good efficiency. He will 0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:27.280 get a long look, they said, more than two quarters 0:17:27.760 --> 0:17:32.800 on Saturday night versus Miami. Brian the Jaguars DJ Shark 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:36.680 had surgery recently on a broken finger, but he should 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:39.120 be ready for Week one. But something to keep your 0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:41.600 eye on as you might want to be drafting Lavisha 0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:44.320 Chanlt and Marvin Jones a little sooner than you were 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:48.639 before this news broke recently. My final team is the 0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:52.639 Baltimore Ravens. Ri Shod Bateman underwent groin surgery. His preseason 0:17:52.760 --> 0:17:57.600 is over. Expected timetable is September, and it's unclear if 0:17:57.600 --> 0:17:59.560 you will walk into a starting job when he comes back, 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:03.280 considering you have missed almost all of training camp. Will 0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:07.040 Marky's Brown and Miles boy Can both have hamstring injuries, 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:09.640 so it's all but certain that Sammy Watkins will be 0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:13.080 the starting in the starting lineup. Hopefully by then it 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:15.520 will be Markus Brown and Sammy Watkins is your number 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:18.920 one and number two receivers there um. Also, I will 0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:23.680 note because Gus Edwards was my sleeper player last week 0:18:24.040 --> 0:18:30.119 when they team released their unofficial first depth chart co 0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:35.280 number one running backs were Gus Edwards and j K 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:37.639 doct I want to talk a little bit more about 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:41.040 j K Dobbins maybe next segment. Okay, good, let's go 0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:44.440 to the our Our final team is the Los Angeles Chargers. 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:48.200 Mike Williams has a hip flex er. Uh so missing 0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:52.359 some practice and here we go again. People are so 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:55.760 are so excited for Mike Williams this year. Tyron Johns 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:58.399 are they remember that name? At wide receiver for the 0:18:58.480 --> 0:19:01.440 Chargers in dime is the especially but he could become 0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:04.639 viable in redraft this year. He has some one of 0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:10.360 my favorite like wait last him Byron Pringle. I got 0:19:10.359 --> 0:19:14.720 a couple others that are my deep deep receiver depth 0:19:14.760 --> 0:19:18.480 chart plays, sleeper plays. All right, when we come back 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:23.679 the Peacock Off, it's two bold predictions from each of 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:27.800 our hosts and we'll find out who gets to Peacock 0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:33.080 after the season was over, The Pea cock Off. When 0:19:33.080 --> 0:19:59.280 we return to Fantasy Football Weekly, Welcome back Kasy Football 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:02.000 Weekly Culture m Matt Harrison and Brian Johnson with you 0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:04.399 do you haven't checked out the freshest new way to 0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:07.760 play fantasy football. It's called the Guillotine League. You can 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:10.160 get more information at Guillotine leagues dot com on this 0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:15.000 new exciting format. This segment is called the Pea cock Off. 0:20:16.240 --> 0:20:21.359 Two bold predictions from each host as they attempt to 0:20:21.520 --> 0:20:26.280 be right with ideas that are so crazy they might 0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:29.840 just come true. We begin with Brian Johnson, what is 0:20:29.880 --> 0:20:36.440 your first pea cock Off? I am gonna be pea 0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:41.120 cocking off when Kyle Pitts scores more touchdowns than teammate 0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:44.520 Calvin Ridley this season. Now, I won't say how many 0:20:44.520 --> 0:20:47.359 touchdowns that is, but we're banking on a fair amount 0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:50.280 of touchdowns for Calvin Ridley and I think Kyle pits 0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:53.359 will have more. Ridley had nine in box. Ridley had 0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:57.000 nine touchdowns last year, very good total, seven from inside 0:20:57.000 --> 0:20:59.840 the twenty five of those seven were from inside the 0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:03.520 yard line on eleven targets. Calvin Ridley had five touchdowns 0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:07.200 inside the ten. Yeah, pretty good numbers, especially for receiver. 0:21:07.560 --> 0:21:10.320 Now we gotta throw Julio under the bus. Julio Jones 0:21:10.320 --> 0:21:12.960 really quick, not in town anymore. Of course, one target 0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:15.320 from inside the ten yard line last year mind bending, 0:21:15.840 --> 0:21:19.600 So that usage so dumb. So outside of Ridley and Julio, though, 0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:25.000 Hayden Hurst, Russell Gauge, Brandon Powell and la Kwan Treadwell 0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:29.640 combined to score eleven touchdowns from inside the ten yard line. 0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:33.199 Who on twenty two targets? Those are great numbers. And 0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:35.720 you think that slot fest of receivers is going to 0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:38.359 combine for those looks now that Kyle Pitts is in town, 0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:42.879 absolutely not. Well they did last year, well, Kyle Pitts 0:21:42.960 --> 0:21:45.040 was not in town. Now Kyle Pitts is in town. 0:21:45.280 --> 0:21:49.000 Who is six six to forty and absolute a plus 0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:51.720 of a unicorn, who is not going to play standard 0:21:51.760 --> 0:21:54.800 tight end. By the way, that's what Hayden Hurts is 0:21:54.840 --> 0:21:56.920 gonna do. Pitts doesn't have to do all the things 0:21:56.920 --> 0:21:59.160 Hayden Hurts is gonna do. Pitts is gonna be catching 0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:02.520 passes all over the place and scoring more touchdowns than 0:22:02.600 --> 0:22:07.320 Calvin Ridley this year. Matt, what is your first of 0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:13.639 two pee cock offs. I'm gonna go with j. K. Dobbins, 0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:17.840 finishing as a top three running back Top three, top three. 0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:21.960 He was only on the field for forty five percent 0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:26.639 of the Ravens offensive plays last season, yet he was 0:22:26.760 --> 0:22:30.280 fourth in the NFL in rushing plays of over twenty yards, 0:22:30.320 --> 0:22:33.960 with eight eight of those long runs on only one 0:22:34.080 --> 0:22:37.679 hundred and thirty four rushing attempts. So six percent of 0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:41.720 his rushing attempts went for twenty or more yards and 0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:44.640 twenty of his rushing attempts went for ten yards or more. 0:22:45.000 --> 0:22:48.640 That's one in every six point five rushing attempts went 0:22:48.720 --> 0:22:51.399 for ten or more yards. Now, Derrick Henry lad the 0:22:51.480 --> 0:22:54.359 league with forty eight runs of ten or more yards 0:22:54.359 --> 0:23:01.520 on two carries. His uh, his percentage was not as 0:23:01.560 --> 0:23:04.760 good as J. K. Dobbins. In the Ravens last nine games, 0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:10.160 including playoffs, Dobbins had nine touchdowns. Boy, that's nine times, 0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:14.800 and the average six point four yards per carry, plus 0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:18.960 mark Ingram's gone vacating seventy two carries. I'd venture to 0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:21.000 guess that most of those go the way of Dobbins, 0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:23.119 getting him to the two hundred carry mark. And I 0:23:23.119 --> 0:23:26.280 think that that's a conservative mark. Extrapolate his numbers from 0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:30.040 last year, running just two hundred times, that's twelve yards 0:23:30.040 --> 0:23:34.200
