Farrankie. What's going on? Buddy? Finally 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:16.680 here week sixteen. Grats everybody's still playing in your Fantasy 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:20.800 Football Championship. But if not still play, it's not over. 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:24.040 For Corey Parts has been playing DFS the past four weeks. 0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:27.759 Is ready as sore we go. Nothing changes. We want 0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:30.080 to thank you for joining us here on the Pursuit 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:32.520 Channel as well, the new home for Impact Wrestling, So 0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:35.320 thank you for joining us for the next little bit, 0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:39.200 and we will break down the games as best we can. Frankie, 0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:41.000 before we came on the air, we were talking about 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.319 this Eagles Texans game, and that's where I want to 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:48.279 start because it's interesting. The one spread that really stands 0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:51.120 out to me this weekend is this one. It's Houston 0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:54.720 as two point dogs in Philly. Houston on top of 0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:57.400 their division in the a f C South, the Philadelphia 0:01:57.440 --> 0:02:00.600 Eagles not so much in the NFC East, Backs against 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.160 the Wall. One more loss and they are out of it. 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:07.280 And yet they're favored at home over Houston. I get it. 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:10.040 They went last week in l A, they beat arguably 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.799 the best team in the NFL at home in the Coliseum, 0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:17.760 and now with Nick Foles their favorites at home against 0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:21.200 a team that's playoff bound. What gives? What do you think? 0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:23.560 It's a little weird to me. It's a little weird 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:25.440 to you for a different reason though, because you're on 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:28.320 the Eagles, which most people you know, everyone's talking about 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:32.359 the Texans right now, but from a betting perspective, we'll 0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:34.200 just talk about that first and foremost. Right like if 0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:36.600 if the if the Eagles don't go into l A 0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:38.320 and win that game. What do you think the spread 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:39.600 is on this game? I would say the Texas are 0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:41.239 probably favored by like three or three and a half. 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:44.240 So because they go into l A and they pull 0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:47.840 off a big win, admittedly a huge win, it just 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:50.239 seems it seems a little bit flukey right now. I 0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:52.920 could I could see both arguments here. I worry about 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:55.240 the Eagles ability to run the football in this game. 0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:57.720 The Texas have been great against the run all season long. 0:02:57.880 --> 0:02:59.840 Look at whatever statistic you want to d v o 0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:03.160 A yards per carry, h rushing yards per game allowed 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.360 to opposing running backs. The Texans have been stout against 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:08.560 the run all season long. We know that the Peterson 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.160 getting back to his running back by committee waves. For 0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.200 a few weeks there, we thought Josh Adams was gonna 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:15.200 be the guy. I think Josh Adams is still in 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:17.280 the mix as a flex. But we also saw Wendell 0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:20.120 small Wood score two rushing touchdowns a week ago. Greg 0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:23.399 Darren's rolls in the mix. In terms of the past game. 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:25.800 He's getting catches out of the backfield. So again we 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:30.079 have these three running backs, the committee approach for Doug 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:33.560 Peterson and the Eagles. So if they can't run the football, 0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:35.360 that means that Nick Foles is going to have to 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:37.920 beat the Houston Texans. I don't know that he's going 0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:40.000 to be able to do that, obviously with the pass 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.560 rush that the Houston Texans have. I do, however, like 0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:47.200 Alshon Jeffrey in the spot because over the past month, 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.360 the Texans are allowing the third most fan of points 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:51.920 to opposing wide receivers. I told you right here in 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:54.360 this very spot last week that I liked Robbie Anderson 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:57.360 and the New York Jets passing attack against the Houston Texans. 0:03:57.400 --> 0:04:00.880 He performed quite rall quite well. The week before that 0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:02.400 we saw to you at Hilton go off for a 0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:05.400 hundred ninety nine yards against the Texans secondary. That is 0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:07.560 the way to attack them. And I do think Alshon 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:09.240 Jeffrey is in a good spot here. I like him 0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:12.200 as a high end wide receiver to Lamar Miller for 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:14.800 the Texans is banged up. I don't really want to 0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:16.560 fool with that. I do think that he plays in 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:20.000 this game regardless. It's it's an okay matchup. The Eagles 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:22.560 have been a little exposed on the ground the past 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:25.080 month or so. But they faced some really good running backs. 0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:27.400 I don't I think Lamar Miller is a flex at best. 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:29.239 I don't really want to fool with that. Though. DeAndre 0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:32.039 Hopkins from a season long perspective, obviously he's in your lineup. 0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:34.600 I love him for DFL dfs as well. Listen, as 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:36.240 I said, as Frank kind of alluded to you, I 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:38.320 like the Eagles because nobody else does. They did go 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:40.640 into l A and they did win. And Nick Foles 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:42.960 certainly has had success at the end of the season 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:46.000 December and January before. Why not now, I don't think 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:48.200 the Texans are as good as their record states. I 0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.520 have been on record. I've been on record and saying 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.159 that the defense idio is good, but aw Sean Jeffrey 0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:55.440 has been better. That connection with Nick Foles certainly seems 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:57.039 to be really he's healthy. Remember the first two games 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.279 Nick foll started this year, Jeffrey didn't play, and I 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:02.320 think that is a major major difference for him for 0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:05.200 Nick Foles in the lineup of the Texans. Obviously, you 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:08.599 know that DeAndre Hopkins is the number one wide receiver 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:11.600 in the NFL and in fantasy drafts next year. As 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:14.320 I stated earlier, this week and when it comps you 0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:16.600 see with the running backs. You know, I didn't like 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:18.599 Josh Adams last week. He fell in the end zone 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:20.880 against the Rams. I think that was I think that's interesting. 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:27.080 Who would you rather start? Josh Adams Lamar Miller? Are 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.320 there any other options here? Greg, No, that's not not 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:32.159 in this question. Yeah, if I had to choose one, 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:37.640 I would go with Josh Adams just because he's still 0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:40.039 getting you know, he's still scoring. I know Windel small 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:43.240 Wood scored two touchdowns, but Josh Adams also scored a touchdown. Uh. 0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.400 Would he have eighteen carriers last week? He didn't perform 0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:47.600 well in those carriers, but he still is getting the workload. 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:49.840 I just I'm just not sure that Lamar Miller is 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.080 healthy here. He's kind of been you know, limited all 0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:55.440 week with this ankle issue. I don't love either, But 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:56.880 I guess if I had to choose one of would 0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:58.520 be Josh Adams. All right, So I would chose that. 0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:01.360 Josh Adams. Also, I think he has ultimately be our 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.040 chance of falling into the end zone. How about that 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.640 makes sense? Yeah? Alright, anything else on this game before 0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:08.760 we move on, I will just say from like a 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.520 playoff perspective, like Backs against the Wall obviously for the 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:13.320 Philly I do think that the Texans are playing for 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:14.919 something here as well, because you win this game, you 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:18.279 lock up the number two seed, um and and that's 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:20.440 huge right now, It's crazy you you lock up, you 0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:22.320 lock up the numbers, you see, which means one of 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.400 the chiefs of the Patriots are going to be the 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:27.480 number three seed in the a f C. Exactly which 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:31.680 when's the last time that happened? Chiefs are always no, no, 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.720 I mean you know when when's the last time, Like 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.320 the Pats weren't, you know what, the one or two 0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:38.640 seeds and they and they still could be still. But 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:40.440 that's why the Texans need to win this game from 0:06:40.480 --> 0:06:43.640 their perspective. The Eagles, of course fighting for the NFC East. 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.960 Dallas currently in first eight and six a game up 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:50.320 on them. They take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers here 0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:54.200 in our next matchup, and Dallas totally different team at 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:57.040 home than they are on the road. Why, Frankie, we 0:06:57.160 --> 0:06:58.840 see this with a lot of teams, right, you know, 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:00.960 it's not just Drew Brees, is not just Big Bend. 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.599 And I know Jared Goff sucked last week at home, 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:05.680 but all season long he had been a quarterback who's 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:09.840 better at home. I mean, this is not it's not crazy, 0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:12.040 like this happens every single year when it comes to quarterbacks. 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:13.520 Like a lot of guys do play better at home, 0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:15.360 and the same thing, the same thing with Dak Prescott. 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:17.200 That's why I haven't ranked inside my top ten this 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:19.880 week at the quarterback position. I really love the three 0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:23.720 main pieces here for the Dallas Cowboys, especially for DFS 0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:25.760 purposes as well. If you wanted to throw a stack 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:28.760 out there with Dak Prescott, A Marii Cooper and Ezekie Elliott, 0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:30.760 I'm not mad at you. I would even throw their 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:32.400 defense in the mix as well. I think that they're 0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.480 gonna be fired up after getting shut out on the 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:37.760 road against the Indianapolis Colts. Uh. From betting perspective, I 0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:39.280 don't know that I want to lay the seven points 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:41.280 right now with the Dallas Cowboys. That number seems a 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:44.720 little bit big, um, But just from a fantasy perspective, 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:46.760 it's just you know, start your guys if you're really 0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:48.560 really desperate at the tight end position. You know, I 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:52.080 have people still asking me about our guy Greg c J. Uzama. 0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:54.600 People are still asking about c j Uzomba Greg at 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:57.520 the tight end position. I'll just throw Blake Jarwin's name 0:07:57.520 --> 0:07:59.360 in the mix with like all those other tight ends. 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:01.600 You don't really want start, but you have to start someone. 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:04.240 Back to back games with seven targets for Blake Darwin. 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:07.480 And then on the Tampa Bay buckside of things, Peyton Barber. Look, 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:09.600 it's not a good matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. He 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:11.640 said the same thing last week against Marlon Mack. But 0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:14.680 it legitimately is not a great matchup against the Cowboys 0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:17.200 defensive line. But I do think Peyton Barber is in 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:19.240 mixed as a flex just based on the workload that 0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:21.679 he's getting and the fact that they have an offense 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:23.640 that moves down the field. They do struggle in the 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:25.640 red zone. When they get down near the goal line, 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:28.320 you know they're giving the ball to Peyton Barber. It's amazing. 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.600 We've waited all season long off the Peyton Barber not 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:33.040 to be the guy in its Week sixteen. He still is. 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:35.880 He lasted literally from week one till now as he's 0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:38.040 started running mad for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He's something 0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:39.720 like a hundred and fifty yards out from being a 0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:43.560 thousand yard rusher, which you crushed him. Yeah. Look, I 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.360 was not a Peyton Barber. I still don't think like 0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:48.880 he's immensely talented, but he just plays. He's a really 0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:50.839 like he plays on a really good offense. He's not 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:52.600 gonna wow. He's not gonna go off for a hundred 0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:54.600 yards and two touchdowns in any game. But what he's 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.199 been doing is solid. You know, he's getting fourteen to 0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:01.079 eighteen carries per game. He's given you, you know, anywhere 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:02.880 from fifty to seventy rushing yards, and then if he 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:04.920 gets in the end zone, he could perform like a 0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:06.400 low nd RB two. I think he's more of a 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.520 flex option. I'll just store his name out there if 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:11.880 you're desperate. Obviously, still starting Mike Evans, but that secondary 0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:14.920 of the Cowboys is absolutely legitimate with Byron Jones and 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:17.720 Adobe A Woozier. So I don't really want to trust 0:09:18.280 --> 0:09:20.440 Chris Godwin to Shawn Jackson. There's a chance that he's 0:09:20.440 --> 0:09:23.079 back as well, Greg Adam. If I had to rank them, 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.199 it would be Mike Evans. Obviously, I think he's still in. 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:28.679 That makes us like a mid range wide receiver two, 0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:33.080 Adam Humphries safe floor wide receiver three. I think you 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.440 can find someone with more upside than him, and then 0:09:35.920 --> 0:09:38.000 I mean you could flip flop to Shawn Jackson and 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:39.800 Chris Godwin. They're outside of my top thirty six. I 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:41.240 don't really want to trust those let me, they're this 0:09:41.320 --> 0:09:44.320 at you. We talked a lot this week about next year. 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:46.560 Mike Evans almost on that precipice this year of that 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:48.280 wide receiver one, right like he was like one of 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:49.600 those guys that was kind of all on the edge. 0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:52.520 Where's Mike Evans next year? I think it would be 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:54.040 in a similar spot he was kind of on that 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:56.040 two three turn this year. I think, you know, no 0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:58.480 one's gonna be talking about Mike Evans. I'll throw this 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:01.079 out there, Greg, I oh, I think that the Tampa 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:03.640 Bay Bucks are gonna blow everything up. And I know 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:05.679 that Mike Evins has a huge contract just resigned the 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:07.680 last year. I wouldn't be surprised if he's a guy 0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:11.000 that's being shopped, really, I really would, because and of 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:12.959 course it all comes back to my New York Jets. 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:15.320 The Jets in need of a wide receiver one, and 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.520 I've already seen some people throwing some names around round 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:21.440 out with guys like A. J. Green and Mike Evans. 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:23.840 If the Bucks are really truly going to blow this 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:26.280 entire thing up, I wouldn't be surprised if Mike Evans 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:27.920 is on the move somewhere, But if he remains with 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:29.480 the Tampa Bay Bucks, I think he goes in a 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:33.400 similar spot late second round, early third round. He'll be 0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:35.760 a guy, you know, a high end wide receiver to 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:37.880 Nobody wants to draft Mike Evans, but look at what 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:39.960 he did this year. He produced. Evans already has more 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:43.319 receptions and yards than he did last year, just five touchdowns, 0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:46.160 though hopefully that goes up over the next two weeks. 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:48.439 Still one top the twelve he had his rookie year, 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:52.800 and in this will probably be his third best season overall. 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:56.120 There and I agree the production has been there hasn't 0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:58.840 always been fun for Mike Evans owners. It hasn't been 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:00.959 consistent for Tampa by bucking his fans, but ever is 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.120 actually been betting pretty good. So let me ask this, Frank, 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:04.599 even all on this, I don't want to get to 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.480 this game. A little bit later on the program or 0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:09.520 maybe on Monday but who'd you really have next year, 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:14.880 Mary Cooper or Mike Evans, all things equal, assuming that 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:17.640 let's just assume Jameis Winston is the quarterback next year, 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:20.120 Mike Evans still there with the Tampa Bay Bucks um 0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:22.240 and obviously Marie Cooper is with the Cowboys. I would 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:26.000 take Mari Cooper. I just think the consistency, the floor 0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:27.959 that he provides a little bit better than Mike Evans, 0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:29.960 and it's obvious that they want to spread the ball 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:31.960 around right and they still do have O. J. Howard 0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:33.800 coming back from injury. I just think that there's more 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.200 mouths to feed in the past game. In terms of talent, 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:38.320 I do actually think that the guys are close Evans 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:40.360 versus a Mari Cooper, But I do think that the 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.319 targets share and the fact that Marie Cooper is going 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:46.240 to be number one in in progressions and reads for 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.360 Dak Prescott. I'll take a Mark Cooper, but it's close. 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:51.040 I'm taking Mike Evans in that one. You can say 0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.160 you wanted that target share, and you're right. Mike Evans 0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:55.200 is still the number one wide receiver in Tampa Bay 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:58.280 for now and number two. This is an offense gonna 0:11:58.280 --> 0:11:59.960 throw the ball a lot more, no matter who the coaches. 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:03.640 Number two, no matter who the coaches next year, they're 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.120 gonna be a passing or pass oriented offense. They don't 0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:08.400 have a running game to speak of. Dallas will always 0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:11.520 be built around a Sekrett give me the passing game 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:16.000 prowess of Damn Bay. Yeah, passing game prowesse that that's 0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:17.920 certainly a phrase that we use with Jamis Winston and 0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:20.560 Tampa Bay Bucks here and in Europe just a lot. 0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:24.360 It's not prowess though, it's more like volume. That's the 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.800 way you're looking for. Greg. We mentioned New England and 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:29.440 earlier on and trying to get that number one or 0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:31.840 number two seed in the a f C. They're at 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:34.240 home taking on the Buffalo Bills. Bills team that have 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:37.240 given them more trouble than they expected. Uh this season, 0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:39.280 New One takes on Buffalo. What are you thinking of 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:43.040 rank first game without Josh Gordon in a while. Yeah. 0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:44.920 And this is something that I talked about throughout the 0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:46.880 week this week and in past weeks, is that there's 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.160 two many mounts to feed for New England. Now, obviously 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:52.160 Josh Gordon as he goes and tends to his mental health. 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:56.520 He's been suspended and definitely by the NFL. We're honestly 0:12:56.559 --> 0:13:00.000 hoping for, you know, for Josh Gordon to get things 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:02.760 right obviously off the field, but now with him out 0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:05.480 of the mix, greg for fantasy football, Uh, there's one 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.360 less mouth feed. So we're looking at guys like Sony Michelle, 0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:11.080 Rock Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, and James White and it seems 0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:13.079 a little bit more manageable here. I know a lot 0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:15.840 of people like to bring up the uh whenever Gronk 0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:18.679 faces the Buffalo Bills, he's bound to have a huge game. Well, 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:20.480 the last time he faced the Buffalo Bills, he did 0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:22.920 not have a huge game. But because of the nature 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:24.920 of the position that is the tight end, you're still 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.880 using him in season long dfs. Maybe he's a GPP 0:13:27.960 --> 0:13:29.600 play because no one else is going to be on 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:32.160 Gronk this week. Me personally, I don't want to do it. 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:34.680 I think the safest guys in this offense this week 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:36.880 are and I know it's not a great match up 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.680 on the ground because the Bills have been great against 0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:40.560 the run, But I do think the Sony Michelle gets 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:42.320 in the end zone. I've been saying that for weeks 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:44.560 and if it wasn't for James Devlan, he would be 0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.520 getting in the end zone. But I do think Sony 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:48.440 Michelle gets back in the end zone as a mid 0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.400 range RB two this week. Julian Edelman the safest of 0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:54.920 the bunch. James White, it's hard to trust him, but 0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:57.640 with Josh Gordon out of the mix not getting those, 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.000 you know, there's like five, six, seven targets to go 0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:02.880 around now, James whitebe might be a little bit safer 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:04.680 this week. I think he's more of a high end flex. 0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:09.080 But the ones that I trust most are Edelman and Yeah, 0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:12.160 I'm I'm with you. I like Sonya Michelle this week. 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:14.520 I like James White this week, and Julian Edelman is 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:15.840 the one I probably like the most out of all 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:17.920 those guys. The one guy I'm fading here, I'm fading 0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:19.800 Chris Hogan. I'm not gonna do this, Chris Hogan. Don't 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:22.520 you're not gonna get into the trendy questions about Chris Hogan. 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:25.440 And if you're toying with like Cordole Patterson or just 0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:27.680 go in a different direction, we'll talk about it throughout 0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:29.240 the show. I mean, there are some wides receiver three 0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:31.920 is available if Robbie Anderson is somehow still on your 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:33.680 waiver wire, or if he's on your bench and you 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:35.320 don't know whether to use him. We'll get into that 0:14:35.360 --> 0:14:37.120 game a little bit later on. But I like Robbie 0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:40.080 some of the Broncos wide receivers really that game overall 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:43.360 on Christmas Eve, right the Broncos and is the final 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:45.360 home game. I think Tony Nelson's in a good spot 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:47.240 as well. Even talking about Jordiy all week, the one 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:49.080 name that you have to mention in this grouping is 0:14:49.120 --> 0:14:51.400 in this game, Frank, and that's Robert Foster for the 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:55.520 Buffalo Bills. He's writing this mix as well. Yeah, Robert Foster. Admittedly, 0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:58.120 we didn't talk about Robert Foster enough last week, and 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.760 we should have at least nine receiving yards in four 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:03.320 of his last five games. He has two touchdowns during 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:05.800 that span. And if you look at what Josh Allen does, 0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:10.360 Robert Foster fits well with Josh allen skill set. Josh 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.480 Allen is either going to take off and run half 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:14.920 the time. Um. We've talked about this as well. Greg. 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.280 The majority of Josh Allen's rushing yards this year are 0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:20.760 not on designed runs there on scramble. So basically he's 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.400 gonna go through his first progression, maybe he'll go through 0:15:23.400 --> 0:15:25.920 his second progression, and then after that he's taken off 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:29.080 and he's running for his life. So with that being said, 0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:31.280 when he's not running, he's trying to throw the ball 0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:33.080 down the field. And who's he telling the ball down 0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:36.400 the field to. It is Bob Foster, Robert Foster, who 0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:39.040 has a something like a twenty four A dot that's 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:42.160 average depth of targets being targeted twenty five yards down 0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:44.720 the field on average. So I do think that he's 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:46.720 in play as a high end wide receiver three, a 0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:48.880 little bit more boomer Bus. I'm not sure how safe 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:51.720 he is, but when you get a five game stretch 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:54.240 now it becomes more of a trend, a trend that 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:56.360 I'm starting to trust. And while we're talking about the 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:58.560 Bills offense and Josh Allen, I'm not fooling with the 0:15:58.600 --> 0:16:00.640 running backs. I know list Tum McCoy is expected to 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:03.320 be be to be back, but Josh Allen inside my 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.400 top ten as a quarterback over the past month, Greig, 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.800 he is your quarterback one. He has finished inside the 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:12.000 top five quarterbacks three of his last four games. That 0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:15.360 one game he was QB fifteen, so supervising that safe floor. 0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:17.520 He might throw a few interceptions, but because of that 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:20.440 rushing ability. I know it's crazy to say you're trusting 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:23.080 Josh Allen in your Fantasy Championship. I started him over 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:26.240 Tom Brady started moving with Lamar Jackson. I would, okay, 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:31.440 I would. For the record, Um, I'm Josh. Josh Allen's 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:33.680 been just so uber consistent. Give it to me. He 0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:36.760 probably probably run for touchdown. He usually does. He ran 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:38.600 for a touchdown against the Lines. Believe he has a 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:40.680 rushing touchdown and three of his last four games. He 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.160 didn't have the huge rushing yardage last week against the Lines, 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:45.080 but in the three games before that, he had at 0:16:45.160 --> 0:16:48.120 least ninety nine rushing yards in each game. I know 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:50.760 Belichick likes to take away the best weapon of the 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:53.680 opposing team, so he'll try his best to limit the 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:57.280 rushing of Josh Allen in this game. But there's no 0:16:57.360 --> 0:17:01.360 stopping Josh Allen. Never thought I'd say that, especially as 0:17:01.360 --> 0:17:04.920 a rookie. They break here when we come back on 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:07.040 the Fantasy Best Friends Forever, where they stick with the 0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:08.359 a f c S.

Break it down what we 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:17.199 think our Rodgers Jamal Williams, Robbie Anderson. That comes your 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:26.919 way next.
