0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:08.360
<v Speaker 1>You found Fantasy Football Weekly Micro a deep dive on

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:11.640
<v Speaker 1>one player in just five to ten minutes. Now, here's

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:16.840
<v Speaker 1>your host, Paul Chargian. It's Fantasy Football Weekly Micro Edition.

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:22.200
<v Speaker 1>I am Paul Chargian. Co host is Tyler Kinnable, Guyantine

0:00:22.239 --> 0:00:25.439
<v Speaker 1>Leagues dot Com writer. Hi, Tyler. Oh, you've been my

0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:27.639
<v Speaker 1>co host for all these micro editions, which has been great.

0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:29.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's been great. I've been having fun doing it.

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, We've had a lot of fun. Just to let

0:00:32.000 --> 0:00:34.600
<v Speaker 1>people know about how this week is going to go down,

0:00:35.200 --> 0:00:39.559
<v Speaker 1>We're we're going to have a big draft show that

0:00:39.880 --> 0:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>I may release earlier than Friday because we're going to

0:00:41.920 --> 0:00:43.879
<v Speaker 1>record it in a couple of days or record it midweeks,

0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:46.120
<v Speaker 1>so I may release it a little bit early. I

0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:49.160
<v Speaker 1>believe we're going to have a draft expert, thor Nystrom

0:00:49.240 --> 0:00:50.839
<v Speaker 1>on which is going to be great. Thought is an

0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:54.240
<v Speaker 1>amazing job, and we're going to break down all the rookies.

0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:58.200
<v Speaker 1>These micro shows is not it's not rookie stuff that

0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 1>we're doing veterans and now that the draft has happened,

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:03.680
<v Speaker 1>we can sort of crystallize on some guys that were

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:05.679
<v Speaker 1>winners in this year's draft.

0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:07.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and one of the winners this year is was

0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Isaiah Pacheco, who finished as the RB thirty five last

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 2>year and is currently going off the board as RB

0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:17.120
<v Speaker 2>twenty two. Now. To note, they did not draft anybody

0:01:17.160 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 2>at running back, but as of we're recording this today,

0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:22.400
<v Speaker 2>they just signed Jack McKinnon back to the backfield, so

0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 2>that kind of it gives you a good sample size.

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:28.840
<v Speaker 2>And we've seen what Pacheco has been with Jack McKinnon

0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 2>in the mix, So I do like that about the

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:31.440
<v Speaker 2>whole situation.

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 1>And McKinnon obviously proved himself to be very valuable pass

0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:38.679
<v Speaker 1>receiving back at the end of last year December and beyond.

0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 1>And that's not Pacheco's game. We'll talk more about that

0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 1>as we look at his at his season. Obviously he

0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>was not the starter at the beginning of the year.

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 1>As a seventh round Brookie had to earn his way

0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.360
<v Speaker 1>and bait Well Clyde orders Jolier had to fail his

0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>way to the point that eventually they just went, Okay,

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:56.960
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna We're just gonna go with the Pacheco.

0:01:57.160 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well, it's interesting because I mean, Clydie is still

0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 2>gonna be in the mix. Seemingly this upcoming season. Maybe

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:05.800
<v Speaker 2>he's still on the roster. So it is today he

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:07.920
<v Speaker 2>is today, you're right, But you're right when he did

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:11.400
<v Speaker 2>get that the job a week eleven and onwards, he

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:13.720
<v Speaker 2>would these are his art his finishes weekly.

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, uh, Pachecko's yes, Pochecko's flyight edwards Hilaire.

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so he was the average running back twenty one,

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:25.160
<v Speaker 2>which is his weekly average, but it was twenty two, sixteen, fifteen, nineteen,

0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 2>thirty two, twenty eight, seventeen, nineteen.

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:30.119
<v Speaker 1>And what's killed Pachecko? So, I mean, no number higher

0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:33.040
<v Speaker 1>than fifteenth, never finished higher than fifteen in any given week.

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 1>For Pachecko, what kills him is volume and the lack

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:41.760
<v Speaker 1>of receptions. He's never gonna have. He's never gonna be

0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:44.119
<v Speaker 1>much of a helper in PPR unless something strange comes

0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>together here and the other thing and maybe there's rain.

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:48.760
<v Speaker 2>Get better.

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:52.040
<v Speaker 1>This year, the touchdowns didn't really come to him, even

0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:54.519
<v Speaker 1>though he is a bigger backup and call him a

0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:56.679
<v Speaker 1>power back, but he's he's somebody who could be a

0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:59.480
<v Speaker 1>capable back at the goal line. Maybe in year two

0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:03.200
<v Speaker 1>he gets a little more confidence from Andy Reid about

0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 1>getting the ball to stripe.

0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I agree, So kind of looking I kind of

0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 2>broke down his just his rushing stats as a total.

0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:13.240
<v Speaker 2>So he was eighth in rushing yards over expected per attempt,

0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 2>which is a really good number. I mean eighth in

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:16.919
<v Speaker 2>the league. Yeah, all those guys above him were top

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:20.240
<v Speaker 2>tier guys inside the ten yard line. He was fourteenth

0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:22.760
<v Speaker 2>in rushing attempts. He had twenty attempts, and then all

0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 2>the guys above him in that range were like top

0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:28.079
<v Speaker 2>twelve running backs that are currently going in ADP right now,

0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.799
<v Speaker 2>so they're like big name kind of guys. Yeah, and

0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:32.960
<v Speaker 2>he only had he had five touchdowns from inside the ten.

0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 2>He had five touchdown on the season, so all of

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 2>those touchdowns inside the tent came inside the ten. But

0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:39.880
<v Speaker 2>he was also twenty seventh in attempts from the five,

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:42.280
<v Speaker 2>which I thought was interesting. And it kind of matches

0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:44.560
<v Speaker 2>up when you watch the Sheeps play. They're doing all

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 2>this wacky stuff, like these ring like Merry go Round

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:50.880
<v Speaker 2>type of out of the huddle, and then they're doing

0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 2>these wacky red zone plays. So maybe I don't know

0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:54.360
<v Speaker 2>if that.

0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Shovel pass from the one yard now, yeah, nobody does

0:03:57.040 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>that except Andy Reid and Patrick maholl exactly.

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 2>So it's I wonder if it's maybe maybe it's not

0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:04.640
<v Speaker 2>a checko. Maybe they just love to do this wacky

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:06.840
<v Speaker 2>kind of stuff and that maybe that doesn't involve the checko.

0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:09.720
<v Speaker 2>It's not New England where Belichick he's gonna be like,

0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:11.880
<v Speaker 2>all right, five yard line, just hand the ball off,

0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 2>we'll see what happens.

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, I mentioned the receiving prowess is not there

0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:20.599
<v Speaker 1>for Isaiah Pachecko. Thirteen catches in seventeen games. You don't

0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:22.280
<v Speaker 1>want to be at you know, half a catch a game.

0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:26.200
<v Speaker 1>That's no helper and that just caps his upside. So

0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:30.680
<v Speaker 1>for me that you know, Pachecko to me is forever

0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of RB two this year. I don't think he's

0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:37.880
<v Speaker 1>in RB one on any any team that that has

0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:38.840
<v Speaker 1>points per reception.

0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:41.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, he's not going to give you anything

0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:44.240
<v Speaker 2>through the air, which you mentioned. It totally caps his upside,

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:46.880
<v Speaker 2>which is really tough. So and when you look at

0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 2>the depth chart here, I mean it's c h RB two,

0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 2>maybe McKinnon RB three, and then we gotle Michael p

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 2>r on RB four. So we're not gonna it's not

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:57.279
<v Speaker 2>a fact, we're not gonna have a lot of running

0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 2>backs that are going to take work away Pachecko on

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.040
<v Speaker 2>the ground, which is I mean, if you trust the offense,

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:07.479
<v Speaker 2>you trust obviously we trust exactly the offense. Yes, I mean,

0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:09.800
<v Speaker 2>having the RB one in the Casey offense is still

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.160
<v Speaker 2>a good guy to have. It's just you're not going

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:15.799
<v Speaker 2>to get anything higher than RB probably fifteen this season

0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:17.920
<v Speaker 2>unless he has an absurd amount of touchdowns, which I

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 2>don't think is gonna happen given the red zone prowess

0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:23.640
<v Speaker 2>that Kelsey can be, and then maybe some of these

0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:25.200
<v Speaker 2>new receivers can kind of pick it up as well.

0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you this, in a typical league that's

0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:34.040
<v Speaker 1>got typical twelve team league, you've got three or four sharps,

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:37.039
<v Speaker 1>You've got you know, five or six guys who pay,

0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:39.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, and not just guys, guys and gals pay

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:41.719
<v Speaker 1>some attention, and then you got three or four teams

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.159
<v Speaker 1>that you know, really aren't paying attention very closely. I

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:46.400
<v Speaker 1>think there's always somebody that's going to pay more for

0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Pacheco just because he's the RB one on the Chiefs,

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:51.240
<v Speaker 1>and they're like, you know, the Chief's gonna score over

0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:52.720
<v Speaker 1>the most points of the league, So I want their

0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 1>running back. I don't think those people are going to

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:58.320
<v Speaker 1>be are going to be as aware of the limitations

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:02.240
<v Speaker 1>that Pacheco gives you with what he can do and

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:05.960
<v Speaker 1>also the middling volume. You know, he this is just

0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 1>not a team that's got like power back that's gonna

0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 1>run the ball twenty one times in a game. That's

0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:12.440
<v Speaker 1>just not Andy Reid's style.

0:06:12.600 --> 0:06:14.599
<v Speaker 2>And I think people are gonna remember him in the

0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:17.720
<v Speaker 2>playoffs and him in the super Bowl just being this, oh,

0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:19.640
<v Speaker 2>look at like he did good in the in the

0:06:19.640 --> 0:06:21.400
<v Speaker 2>playoffs in super Bowl, so be able to remember that

0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:23.359
<v Speaker 2>kind of like how they did with uh was it

0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 2>Lagerret Blunt? I think with the with the Eagles, how

0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:26.919
<v Speaker 2>they're like, oh, look at him during the or it

0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:29.200
<v Speaker 2>was that no Is Sony Michelle with the Patriots, Yeah,

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:31.840
<v Speaker 2>killed in that postseason, and they're just gonna think he's

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:32.159
<v Speaker 2>gonna do.

0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:35.680
<v Speaker 1>That promptly Michelle the rest of the year. Who's going

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:39.000
<v Speaker 1>around Pacheco in ADP right now?

0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:41.160
<v Speaker 2>So right now, what's played the ADP game? We got

0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Damian Pierce. Damian Pierce. I love Damian Pierce.

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.280
<v Speaker 1>He is one of my favorite players in the NFL,

0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:53.360
<v Speaker 1>and he is a way way more talented back than

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:57.360
<v Speaker 1>Isaiah Pacheco. And I believe Houston is. If you ask

0:06:57.440 --> 0:07:00.000
<v Speaker 1>me to pick one team that's gonna improve the most

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 1>from last year to this year, Houston I wins. I'm

0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:04.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm on Damian Pierce.

0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:06.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm with you too. I'm definitely on Damian Pierce just

0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 2>because he's going to He's going to be more of

0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:10.480
<v Speaker 2>a focal point in the offense than Pacheco. Ever, will

0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:14.160
<v Speaker 2>be absolutely all right. Rashad White another winner of the draft.

0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:16.520
<v Speaker 2>We talked about him already on micro but we did.

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:17.880
<v Speaker 2>He was a big winner of the draft.

0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:19.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a lot of people thought he would get some.

0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:22.400
<v Speaker 1>He would get some somebody in the draft would would

0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>end up in Tampa. But Dampa's got so many needs.

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 1>The Tampa offense could be one of the five lowest

0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:31.120
<v Speaker 1>scoring offenses in the league.

0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 2>They really could be. I mean with Baker at though,

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:34.480
<v Speaker 2>with the help.

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:36.920
<v Speaker 1>With Baker there, right, you've got an aging Mike Evans.

0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:40.520
<v Speaker 1>Chris Godwin's a good player, but not somebody who powers

0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:44.160
<v Speaker 1>a whole offense. I don't know. I'm nervous about that offense.

0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm sticking with Isaiah Pacheco.

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:48.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna take Risha. Why because I think he has

0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 2>some passing upside that is going to be totally point.

0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 1>And just for the PPR that Rashad White gets, he

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:55.400
<v Speaker 1>might be better.

0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:57.360
<v Speaker 2>This could be like a bad team. We're just gonna

0:07:57.520 --> 0:08:00.160
<v Speaker 2>run the ball and just feed, like, just feed one

0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 2>guy in our offense, and it might be a shot White.

0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:04.040
<v Speaker 2>So that could be yeah, and that JK. Dobbins kind

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:08.040
<v Speaker 2>of a similar role with Pacheco and guy doesn't catch

0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 2>a lot.

0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Ye.

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 2>Greg Roman also won't be there, so it's not gonna

0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:13.160
<v Speaker 2>be this heavy run attack that I think everyone expects

0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:14.360
<v Speaker 2>with the Ravens.

0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Hm A JK. Dobbins apologist. I'm sticking with him cause

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.720
<v Speaker 1>I think he's a more talented, better back in a

0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:25.640
<v Speaker 1>run heavy offense. I'm sticking with I'm rolling with Dobbins too. Yeah, yeah, Dynasty,

0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 1>what's your long term forecast in Isaiah Pacheco?

0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:31.840
<v Speaker 2>See, actually just trade him away in a Dynasty league. Okay,

0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:33.480
<v Speaker 2>maybe a couple of months ago.

0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:34.679
<v Speaker 1>You remember what you got for him?

0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:36.360
<v Speaker 2>I do. It was a straight up trade. It was

0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Isaiah Checko for Pat Friar youth because I was just

0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:43.079
<v Speaker 2>totally out on I had. I also had no tight end.

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.160
<v Speaker 2>But I was just like, they're they're gonna draft someone.

0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:47.680
<v Speaker 2>I was wrong, but be he just doesn't have that

0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:50.720
<v Speaker 2>upside that I'm looking for and Pat pat Rymans is fine,

0:08:50.760 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 2>so I'll take him.

0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, except they just drafted another tight end exactly. Darnell

0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 1>Washington is one of my favorites, and they they landed.

0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:00.600
<v Speaker 2>I think that he fell kind of says something about

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:03.320
<v Speaker 2>Darnel watching it like he's a freak. But Kenny play

0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:05.800
<v Speaker 2>tight end. We know he's huge and he can run,

0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:06.839
<v Speaker 2>but Kenny actually plays.

0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 1>See him after the catch.

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 2>I've seen him after the catch with a cab. I

0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:12.199
<v Speaker 2>love that guy. He might be like a freak, but

0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:14.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if he's like a technician route runner

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:15.559
<v Speaker 2>that you're looking for.

0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:17.959
<v Speaker 1>That's true. That part we don't know about, So that

0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:19.120
<v Speaker 1>is that is totally fair.

0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:20.480
