Speaker 1: Paul Georgie and my co host today Tyler kennablee as

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: he has been for all of these. Now you don't

6
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: get to do him all, Tyler, we get to rotate

7
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,440
Speaker 1: in the regulars too. Okay, all right, I mean they

8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,479
Speaker 1: get to make an appearance. He was taking my spot. Well,

9
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: all of them have expressed interest. Oh I think he

10
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: got him a little nervous. Good. Yeah, yeah, you like that.

11
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 1: I like that petitive, that's right. Today's Fantasy Football Weekly

12
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: Micro edition will focus on new Detroit Lions running back

13
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: David Montgomery. I this is a very interesting case because

14
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: where his ADP is right now, I think is very

15
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 1: very interesting and I'm excited to dive into it. So

16
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: he was last year. He finishes the RB twenty eight

17
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: and average points per game. He's currently going off the

18
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: board as the RB twenty one, which seems like a

19
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: pretty high. That's like a mid RB two, low end

20
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: RB two. I guess yep, uh, he was. He had

21
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 1: a pretty decent year lest year. Like, this is a

22
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: guy who can he can make people miss. He was

23
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: sixth and rush attempts per broken tackle. The only guys

24
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: that were above him were Jonathan Taylor, Lamar Jackson, Damien Pierce,

25
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: Romandre Stevenson, Derrek Henry. Those are good running exactly. And

26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: then at Jackson, ye, and then it's then it's David Montgomery.

27
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: He's not a bad running back, He's not. I think

28
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: the most damning thing about David Montgomery right now is

29
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: that Chicago let him go. Yeah, made no effort to

30
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: sign him dead. They rolled into the offseason with the

31
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: most cap space of any team and made no effort

32
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: to keep David Montgomery. What do they know? What is

33
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: it about him? Or is this just that they think

34
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: Kalil Herbert is that good? Yeah? Maybe they just really

35
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: like Cleil Herbert and thought they could kind of get

36
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: what they got from Dave Montgomery from Clio Herbert. And

37
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: I think they only paid Dion to Foreman like a

38
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: million or two. It was not a big contract all,

39
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: so I think they thought they could get what they

40
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: got just save a little bit of money and kind

41
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: of a little bit of addition by subtraction. Right now,

42
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 1: in Detroit without a doubt. The number one question on

43
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: Montgomery is is he going to get the goal line

44
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 1: touches that Jamal Williams got last year? And I don't

45
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: think we can say for certain that he. I mean,

46
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: I don't think that Swift is going to get them.

47
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 1: Let's just start with that. Because Swift only had four

48
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: touches inside the five yard line last year. That's not

49
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: those were those four were all carries all sorry to

50
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: get some receptions from up close. Yes, um, yep, and

51
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: that's I mean. And what Williams must have had twenty

52
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams was first and carries with twenty nine attemptine

53
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: five that turned into twelve touchdowns. Twenty nine attempts, twelve touchdowns.

54
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: The next closest person for with attempts from inside the

55
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: five was Zeke at nineteen, So ten more touches nineteen

56
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: twenty is in a typical year is where your number

57
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: one most used inside the five runner typically comes in.

58
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: And as regular listeners to the show, no, because we

59
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: talked about inside the five all the time. From inside

60
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: the five, you're looking for a fifty percent touchdown rate.

61
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: So what we really wanted to see from Jamal Williams

62
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: on those twenty nine attempts was closer to fourteen fifteen touchdowns.

63
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: We got twelve. That wasn't bad. And then Williams scored

64
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: a couple others along the way, but most of us

65
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: were from up close. So I did a little digging

66
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: on this, trying to figure out how many touchdowns we

67
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: can get for Montgomery. Get this, Detroit ran the second

68
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: most rushing plays from inside the five yard line forty

69
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: rushing plays from inside the five, second most. Only the

70
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: Philadelphia had more, and it's because they loved to run

71
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: their quarterback from inside the five. You could draw a

72
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: reasonable conclusion, Tyler, that the Lions aren't going to run

73
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: forty more times from inside the five, and that they'll

74
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: even out their run to pass ratio a little bit

75
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: more next year. But then I dug up their pass

76
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: stats from inside the five. They were second, and pass

77
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: attempts from inside the five they were second, and run

78
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: attempts second, and pass attempts from inside the five they're play.

79
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: They kept getting tackled inside the five, and they kept

80
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: having situations from inside the five, and they had an

81
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: almost even number of run in pass plays from inside

82
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: the five, which I found staggering that one team could

83
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: run the second most runs and the second most passes

84
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: from inside the five. If you had a Monrail Saint

85
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: Brown on your team last year and you watched red zone,

86
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 1: the amount of times that he got tackled at like

87
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: the two yard line was unbelievable. He should have like

88
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: he should have like twenty touchdown last season from the

89
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: amount of times he got tackled at the one. So

90
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: you should break him down sometimes. Yeah, get well, you

91
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: should dig into that data. But I'm going to show. Yes.

92
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: I also dope intoed like the inside the five stuff

93
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: as well, because I was trying to, like you, I

94
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: was trying to figure out how many touchdowns could we

95
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: see from Dave Montgomery and how many carries that would be.

96
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: So I took the top fifteen players and attempts from

97
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: inside to five and calculated the average attempts per TD

98
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: so and again the typical ratio were we love to

99
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: get around a fifty percent ratio, So about two attempts

100
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: for everyone touchdown. Yeah, So there were two hundred thirteen

101
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: attempts among the top fifteen guys of rushes inside the

102
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: five and then eighty nine touchdowns. So on average, it

103
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: took two point four rushing attempts, let's get one rushing touchdown.

104
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: Montgomery's average over the past two seasons is actually better

105
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: at one point nine attempts for touchdown, and he'd combine

106
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 1: that with the high the tackles for broken percentage that

107
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier. So Montgomery just feels like a guy

108
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: who he's not going to go down when he gets

109
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: touched the first time. So let's just say this outright,

110
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: David Montgomery's a better running back than Jamal Williams is.

111
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, It's not close, right, yes, So you know,

112
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: if we can get close to the same number of

113
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: touches or even less, even if even if David Montgomery

114
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: doesn't get twenty nine attempts, if he's closer to what

115
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: is a more traditional twenty two attempts for a which

116
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: is still a lot because he's better at converting those

117
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: into touchdowns, he could still end up at the same

118
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: twelve touch down just from inside the five. Plus Montgomery

119
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: is a way more dynamic run who's going to score

120
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: more touchdowns from outside of the five yard line than

121
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams did. Exactly, And I think one thing that

122
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: you're not really worried about, but just intrigued by the

123
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift factor in this whole thing, because I was

124
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: a huge Swift guy last season, absolutely massive, and the

125
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 1: just he never got the ball and never got a

126
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 1: harry inside he got he was hurt, but then when

127
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: he came back, he just felt like I was seeing

128
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: a little bit too much of Craig Reynolds and Jamal

129
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: Williams from my liking if I was a Swift owner.

130
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 1: So okay, okay, okay, whoa Swift would got hurt early? Yeah,

131
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 1: missed a bunch of games, then came back and was

132
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: clearly laboring on one leg, and they dialed way back

133
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: as usage because they because every time they tried to

134
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: keep using me kept reindering himself. So Swift could be

135
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: a much bigger wild Carter healthy Swift, who was what

136
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: was he a second round pick three years ago? I

137
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 1: mean he's still he was. He was a special talent

138
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: coming out of coming out of college. He's looked brilliant

139
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 1: in some plays. If Swift rolls into this season healthy,

140
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 1: and he plays this season healthy, he can be I

141
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: think a bigger spoiler, not inside the five, because I

142
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: don't think that's his deal, but broadly he can siphon

143
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: up way more carries than he got last year. I

144
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: think I agree with you in terms of I think

145
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: in between like the twenties, I think swift is their

146
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: guy because he has a lot of speed, His receiving

147
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: profile is a lot better than pretty much anybody a

148
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: lot of running backs in the league, and he's just

149
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: a great, like you said, a great prospect. I'm just

150
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: worried that I would just I want to see what

151
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: they're gonna do in the red zone with him. Are

152
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: they just gonna it's just gonna be okay, Dave Montgomery

153
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: time here you go. Or is swiftly gonna get a

154
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: little bit more involvement inside the ten? Inside the five?

155
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: So if Jamal Williams was good for twelve touchdowns just

156
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: from inside the five and whatever sixteen on the season,

157
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: what do you think give me just the touchdown total

158
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: you think David Montgomery gets. So if we applied the

159
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: Russian attempts per to Russian touchdown the two point four

160
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: that I was talking about earlier, Let's say Dave montgomer

161
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: gets twenty carries, which would be nine less than what

162
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: Jamal got last season. That's still gonna be eight rushing

163
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: touchdowns from inside of the five. You do, but he's

164
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: one point nine attempts per touchdown exactly. It might be

165
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: even higher, but that might be ten touchdowns. I think

166
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: Montgomery again, assuming it plays all season, I think he

167
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: could be looking at a at a thirteen to sixteen

168
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: touchdown season and he's going off the borders running back

169
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: twenty one. It'd be impossible for him to finish lower

170
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: than running back twenty one on twelve thirteen fourteen touchdowns.

171
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: That's that's if he gets the touchdowns though, So you

172
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: if you I think if you, if you swept they

173
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: getting the touchdowns, well, if you're just made that clear,

174
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: I agree with Ben Johnson is still the offensive coordinator.

175
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 1: I don't think that changes. He's got his inherent biases.

176
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: He saw what worked last year and Jamal Williams worked.

177
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: I agree with you, I'm with you on this. I

178
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: just think that it's always so risking when you're like

179
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: I just if I need him to get touchdowns, but

180
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: if he doesn't get touchdowns, he's not going it's gonna

181
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: be like Jamal last year. If he doesn't get a touchdown,

182
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna have like eleven carries for thirty nine yards

183
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 1: or something like that. I mean at eleven for thirty

184
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 1: nine but in that range, well, those are the Jamal

185
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 1: Williams non touchdown games. He killed you exactly, super dangerous

186
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: guy in Gayoteen four. Yes, yeah, Jamal Williams was. David

187
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: Montgomery is going into this season as well. Although he

188
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 1: can catch, I mean David Montgomery can catch. I mean,

189
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 1: Swift is still I think the primary pass catcher out

190
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: of that backfield. But unlike Williams, who really wasn't using

191
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,439
Speaker 1: that role at all, I think Montgomery gives them some

192
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 1: pass catching options and if Swift does get hurt, unlike

193
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams, David Montgomery can be a twenty two touch

194
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: a game guy and that could give him RB five

195
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 1: upside that Jamal Williams never had. DeAndre Swift never had.

196
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: I think Craig Reynolds might be a bit more of

197
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: a nuisance in that spot than you may realize. They

198
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 1: resigned him. They'd like Craig Reynolds. Oh, I know they

199
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: like him, but he's not. He's not siphoning off a

200
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: bunch of work from David Montgomery. Yeah, no chance, we'll see.

201
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: I just I think they like the running back by

202
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: committee approach a little bit too much. All right, So

203
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: who are the the running backs going getting drafted around

204
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: David Montgomery? Yeah, so let's see who you like? Uh

205
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: in terms of like he's are the guys who went

206
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: around him? So we got DeAndre Swift at RB twenty one,

207
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 1: So he got David Montgomery was RB twenty one. Oh

208
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: R star RB twenty My bad? Okay, Um, that's uh

209
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: so clearly Mcgomery. I want the touchdowns. I've got touchdowns

210
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: on my fantasy team. Gotcha, not close Montgomery. JK. Dobbins.

211
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: Dobbins was sneaky good last year. Did you see the

212
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: way he was running? Literally he was limping like while

213
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: he was running. But he's still averaged five and a

214
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: half yards. He's gonna be a lot more healthy this

215
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: year coming up. By the year removed from the ACL,

216
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: I think I'm going to Montgomery because of the quality

217
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: of overall offense. Okay, I think I take Dobbins there

218
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: just from the pure rushing attack. I think Isaiah Pacheco

219
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: RB twenty three. Let's say they don't go, say they

220
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 1: don't draft him, he doesn't catch. Uh, too many other

221
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: options to score. I'm going to Montgomery. Okay, Joe Mixon,

222
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: let's say he's ways for its incident it is. You

223
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: don't think he Let's say he's on Cincinnati. He's in

224
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 1: the same role he was last season. You rather have

225
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 1: David Montgomery. Yes, I just think I'm out on Joe

226
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: Mixon just watching watching him play. And I backed him

227
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 1: in a lot of leagues last year because I loved

228
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: the improved offensive line and the fact that he was

229
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 1: going to get most of the work. And he still

230
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: got most of the work. Dude didn't do anything with it. Man,

231
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: his runs were so pedestrian. He's still like a five

232
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: touchdown game though. Take well, no, that was p Ryan's

233
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: five touchdown game, wasn't it. Yeah? How many other games

234
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: that he have touchdowns? And I'm still pretty sure he's

235
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: fit like an RB ten last year in that offensive

236
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: If he can just play the zecro, I'm fine with it.

237
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: I'll take I think I take Mixon over Montgomery just

238
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: because I think if, like again, if he's there, well,

239
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: they got some leagual stuff going on and we'll see

240
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: all that shakes out. But too Yeah, all right, last

241
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: one cam Acres RB twenty five Now, Acres did look

242
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: pretty dynamic late in the season. He looked fully recovered

243
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: from the achilles injury. But man, he killed fantasy owners

244
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: for three months and that that team still doesn't you know,

245
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: even when they bring back Cooper Cup, you still have

246
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: a terrible offensive line. Uh, Stafford's a huge question mark

247
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: right now. I can't do it. I can't. I would

248
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: not take that. I would not take Cam Akers. You know,

249
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: we just I just gave you a scenario where David

250
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: Montgomery is a legitimate top five running back. If DeAndre

251
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: Swift it gets hurt again, Montgomery turns into twenty two

252
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: touches a game and a top five running back. Cam

253
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: Akers doesn't have that in any scenario. Yeah, the way

254
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: the season starts for him, because it was the first

255
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: opening night, he got like two carries and everyone's like,

256
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: what is going on here? We just spent a fifth

257
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: round pick on him and he got like two carries, Yes,

258
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 1: and then it didn't really get better than that, Remember,

259
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he just he languished for a long time,

260
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: and then then Baker came in the team for two

261
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: weeks and yeah, you know all of that. Yeah, after

262
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 1: all that stuff, like I would be surprit the way

263
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: this running back classes and the draft, they're gonna draft

264
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 1: someboddy and they're gonna want to use them. I think

265
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: I think you're probably right. Kyen Williams is not the

266
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,199
Speaker 1: answer there either, So no, I was hopefully would be,

267
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: if only because everybody else stunk. So I'm like, oh,

268
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: let's try Kyran Williams. But that didn't pan out at all. Um.

269
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: And it's such a deep draft from running backs, by

270
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: the way, coming up this this coming, I think this

271
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 1: week's Fantasy Football Weekly on Friday will be about rookie

272
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: running back. So we'll have a ton of got so

273
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: many good running backs of this draft class. Oh geez.

274
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: Every time every time I start digging into a new

275
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: running back out of this draft class, I'm like, hey,

276
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: looks awesome this guy. There's so many great guys. I'll

277
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: just say quick, my guy is Kendre Miller. That's my guy.

278
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: It is he is. I love Kendra Miller, Tank Bigbee.

279
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,839
Speaker 1: I loved Okay, okay, just because of the name or

280
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: good it started with. That's a cool name. I should

281
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: check him out. And I'm watching the film and go,

282
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: oh man, and I'm surprised He's moved up a lot,

283
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: and it felt like the Tank Bigsby steam has moved

284
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 1: from round seven, round six more to like round four

285
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: and five. As people are digging into his film and

286
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: knowing you had like no help around him, terrible offensive line,

287
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: bad offense in general, and they just look at what

288
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: he did with special moves. Tank Bigsby's good. Yeah. I'm

289
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: not saying he's he's in the you know, the time.

290
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's a top two three round guy,

291
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 1: but I think in the right landing spot, he's gonna

292
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: be good. Yeah. All right, Well, we'll talk more rookies later.

293
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening. It's it's probably our longest we got

294
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: off track. It's probably our longest of the Fantasy Football Weekly.

295
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: Micro's back with more next week. If you have an

296
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 1: idea for a guy you'd like us to talk about,

297
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: David mctgomery. You came from Twitter, Uh, please let us know.

298

Speaker 1: I'm at Paul Charchi and Tyler is at Tyler kennabilely

299
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: k n A E B L e
