1
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody is Wednesday, October two. Welcome to the NFL

2
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,439
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Show. We got a plenty to talk about,

3
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: so let's get to it. Let's start things off with

4
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: some fantasy headlines and news out of Miami. Twa tong

5
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: of Violo was back at practice on Wednesday to what

6
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: will be throwing and doing individual drills, but Mike McDaniel

7
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: has ruled him out for the weeks as the Dolphins

8
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: are planning to start Skyler Thompson. That's because Teddy Bridgewater

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 1: is also still in concussion protocol. So with Thompson starting,

10
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: how excited are you about the other pieces there, especially

11
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: the past catchers. Uh? Not, not nearly as excited as normal.

12
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: I know Skyler Thompson, he played all right against the Jets.

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: He was kind of thrusted into it unexpectedly. Um. I

14
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: think Tyreek Kill is still in play because he's Tyree

15
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: Killed Waddle. It depends on your other options. I mean

16
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 1: Skyler Thompson, a seventh round rookie that, as you mentioned,

17
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,199
Speaker 1: had to just come in unexpectedly last week after Teddy

18
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: Bridgewater left the football game. So ideally he understands get

19
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: the ball to Tyreek Hill. Maybe get the ball to

20
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: Jaitlen Waddle, but I think it's gonna be hard to

21
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: expect anything close to the normal level of production from

22
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: either one of those guys this week over to New England.

23
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: This is according to our own Tom Pellicero. Patriots running

24
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 1: back Damien Harris is expected to miss multiple weeks because

25
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: of a hamstring injury. He suffered that last week in

26
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: the win over the Detroit Lions. So basically, it is

27
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: Ramandra Stevenson seasons and Stephen season, it's Romandre a week.

28
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 1: I know everybody across the fantasy space loves him. I'm

29
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: sure you do as well. I guess the question really

30
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: is how high are you willing to rank Ramandre this week?

31
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: I think he's like pushing net like borderlined RB one

32
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: status right now. I don't know if I have him as,

33
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: say a top twelve running back, but I think he's

34
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: in that conversation, and I like, probably like top fifteen

35
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: or so, because I know last week he did all

36
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: of his damage on the ground. But even if they

37
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: fall behind, I expect him to be heavily used in

38
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: the passing game, so that gives him a very high

39
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: ceiling and floor that passing game. Work is why we

40
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: were excited about him coming into the season. And now,

41
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, with no Damien Harris, he gets a

42
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: lot of that rushing work too. There may be some

43
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: other guys that sort of get some opportunities, but this

44
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: feels like vermandra show, especially if we're still looking at

45
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: Bailey Zappy at quarterback, Especially against a Browns run defense

46
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: that was trampled by the Chargers last week. This just

47
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: feels like a big, big week for vermondre Stephenson. So

48
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: it's gotta be a game of just fifty runs, like

49
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball. They may be done

50
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: in an hour and a half. Keep the run, and

51
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: you know, don't even turn off the engine to your

52
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: car and just keep it running because we're gonna be

53
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: out of here really quick. I guess it's to our

54
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: hero and villain of the week. Let's start with our

55
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: fantasy hero heading in the week six, the guy that

56
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: will carry your team to victory and maybe deserves a

57
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: little bit more buzz than he's getting right now. For you,

58
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: who would that be? Travis E. T N who I know.

59
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: We were all myself especially included, was very bullish about

60
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: him heading into this year. And then the first couple

61
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: of games happened and it looked like it was the

62
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 1: James Robinson show. But the last two weeks, Travis e

63
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: t N has been playing more and more for the Jaguars,

64
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: and last week he actually played more snaps at one

65
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: percent for Robinson. They each had ten carries. E t

66
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: N had five targets to Robinson's two. Robinson finished with

67
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: less than forty yards. E t N had a hundred

68
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: and fourteen, So he's becoming more and more utilized. He's

69
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: very explosive, so if he gets anywhere in the neighborhood

70
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: of fifteen opportunities again, I think he can have a

71
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 1: really good week. That is making this backfield incredibly confusing

72
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: because both these guys can be productive and now becomes

73
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: a question of how game script goes and which guy

74
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: is gonna get more opportunities. But if you have James Robinson,

75
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: I think you're still starting him based on who else

76
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: you may have on your roster, and Travis C. E

77
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: t N at this point is deserving of a spot

78
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: in your line up as well. I'm gonna go with

79
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: you know, Benjamin, and this is definitely a short term

80
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: opportunity for Benjamin. This is because the Cardinals are really

81
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: banged up in the backfield, James Connor dealing with rib issues,

82
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: his status still uncertain as of now. Darrell Williams also

83
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: left that game with an injury, although you can make

84
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: the case that Benjamin had surpassed him for the RB

85
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: two duties in Arizona. But a good matchup against the

86
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: Seahawks defense that has been just purely awful all season long,

87
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: that we'll see if the Cardinals can actually score a

88
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: decent number of points in the first half. That's something

89
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: they have not been able to do. But either way, Florio.

90
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: The thing about Benjamin, he will get involved in the

91
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: passing game. He can contribute as a pass catcher, so

92
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: even if game script is negative, that doesn't necessarily rule

93
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: him out for being productive. Yeah, and and right now,

94
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: if James Conner sits, the other running backs that are healthy,

95
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: there are guys that they just son this week, So

96
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: I think you know Benjamin will dominate volume this week.

97
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: They were working out Corey Clement among others earlier in

98
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: the week just as a contingency plan for Sunday. So

99
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: that gets us to our fantasy villain of the week.

100
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: The guy who is going to, you know, threaten to

101
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 1: st California into the ocean so we can have ocean

102
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: front property in Arizona, which, by the way, was actually

103
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: the plot of the original Superman movie in the late

104
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: nineties seventies. I'm not making that up anyway. Who's the

105
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 1: guy who's going to be the fantasy villain this week.

106
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if he has oceanside property anywhere or

107
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: in Arizona, but I think Nagy Harris has been a

108
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: very big disappointment to start the year, And in this

109
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: week Starts sit article, I wrote more about Nagy Harris

110
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 1: than any other players, just trying to figure out why

111
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: he is struggling so mightily and his explosiveness just isn't

112
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: what it was last year on the ground. But the

113
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: big thing is he's just getting less usage in the

114
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,799
Speaker 1: past and game last year was averaging almost five targets

115
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: per game, even if you take away that big game

116
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: this year, he's well below four. Uh So I have

117
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: a lot of concerns about Nagy Harris. And then he's

118
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: facing a Bucks defense that has allowed the fewest Fantasy

119
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: points to running backs this year and have been in

120
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: that degory of like allowing the fewest for years to

121
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: running backs, so I think it's a very scary matchup

122
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: for a struggling playing The other part is Mike Tomlin

123
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: saying they want to get Jalen Warren even more involved

124
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: than he's been taking about a third of the snaps,

125
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: so that means potentially fewer opportunities for Nashy Harris, who,

126
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, is already struggling. For me, it's gonna

127
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: be Justin Herbert, who's been outstanding so far this year.

128
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: But for as much as the Broncos offense has been awful,

129
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: the Broncos defense has actually been pretty good. And the

130
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: one thing we have learned through the first month plus

131
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: of the season is don't challenge Pats or Tan the

132
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 1: second Just don't do it. And you know, we're still

133
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: waiting to see what's gonna happen with Keenan Allen. Is

134
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: he back. He has been just missing ever since injuring

135
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: his hamstring in Week one, so that is sort of

136
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: limited this passing game. There's not a lot of speed

137
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: on the outside. I mean, they've got the big body

138
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: and Mike Williams. We've seen DeAndre Carter makes some plays,

139
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: but they really are lacking speed on the outside, which

140
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 1: makes them a little bit easier to the Fins. So

141
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: you're starting Justin Herbert because I don't know that you

142
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: have a better option, really, but I don't like his

143
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: matchup at all. This week, I get it and and

144
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: with no like their offense has been much more through

145
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: the ground game than I anticipated. Early on last week

146
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: it was Austin Neckler with over a hundred and seventy

147
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: rushing yards, a career high. So it maybe that that

148
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: could be the route the Chargers take in that game

149
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: on Monday night. Let's get to some of our game previews.

150
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: Will start with Thursday Night Football. It's the Washington Commanders

151
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: at the Chicago Bears eight fifteen Eastern on Prime Video

152
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: and on NFL Plus. And when we saw this question,

153
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: our producers put this together for us. They thought it

154
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: was going to be one way, but instead it was

155
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: the other way. Better streaming option Carson Wentz or Justin Fields.

156
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: It's worth mentioning too that our producers a Bears fans

157
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: one of them. Uh, And I'm going with Justin Fields.

158
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: In fact, in our Fantasy Live league, Derek Carr is

159
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,239
Speaker 1: my starting quarterback. I had to go to the waiver wire.

160
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 1: The best two names available where fields are Wins, and

161
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: I picked up Justin Fields. Uh. He's been throwing a

162
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: little more, still not what we want to see, but

163
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: over twenty one attempts in the last two weeks. And

164
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: then I just like him because what he can do

165
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: with the on with his legs on the ground, Like

166
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: he led the Bears in rushing yards last week, and

167
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: that was even after they took away a very long

168
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: touchdown run that was super impressive. So I'm going with

169
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: Justin Fields here. I'm actually gonna double up on that

170
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: and say justin Fields as well. I do like that

171
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: he's running a little bit more this year than he

172
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: did last year. Right now, he actually is Chicago's second

173
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: leading rusher. That comes with an asterisk though because David

174
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: Montgomery missed a game otherwise it probably wouldn't be the case.

175
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 1: But still he is actually getting out. I think he's

176
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: number six among quarterbacks in rushing yards so far this season.

177
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 1: So he is doing some things with his legs. And

178
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, they actually let him throw the ball

179
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 1: a little bit more the last couple of weeks, and

180
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: he was very efficient last week throwing it. So as

181
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: long as he can keep that up against a commander

182
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: secondary that's been bad. I think I think there's some

183
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: opportunity for fields to be a streamer in Week six.

184
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 1: Who will be the top scoring running back on Thursday Night?

185
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 1: This one felt pretty easy to me. Yeah, it's David

186
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: Montgomery by the faults um because Khalil Herbert wasn't really

187
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: used much when David Montgomery returned, and then on the

188
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: Washington side of things, JD. McKissock led them in targets,

189
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson led them in carries, and Antonio Gibson led

190
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 1: them in total yards. They all had single digit Fantasy points.

191
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: They all played less than half the snaps. It is

192
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 1: an absolute fantasy nightmare in that back. And now they're

193
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: talking about using Gibson as a return man. It is

194
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: stay far away from this back. I want no parts

195
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: of the Washington back fields. In fact, I believe I

196
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: may have dropped Antonio Gibson in a couple of leagues

197
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: just because I I can't deal with it anymore. But

198
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: I'm all about David Montgomery here too. We saw last

199
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: week when he came back he is still the RB

200
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: one in Chicago. He is going to get a heavy workload.

201
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, Khalil Herbert sort of not completely relevant

202
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: once months Montgomery is back. So I think this is

203
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: an easy call there. Who will be the top scoring

204
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: wide receiver on Thursday Night. I think this came down

205
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: to one of two players because I'm not going with

206
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: any Bears receiver. UM, I'm gonna go with Curtis Samuel,

207
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: though who I know his explode like, his floor isn't

208
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: as high as of the other options in this game. Um,

209
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: but he has led the Commanders almost said the football

210
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: team that he's led the Commanders and targets every single

211
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: game this year. He's one of a few wide receivers

212
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: with at least seven targets in every game. I know

213
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: the last two weeks we haven't quite gone what we

214
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: wanted out of that volume, but I'm gonna trust it

215
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: here with Curtis Samuel. I wavered between Curtis Samuel and

216
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin, and instead I settled on McLaurin because he

217
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: is getting more downfield targets. Samuel right now is just

218
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: sort of an underneath guy, and the last few weeks

219
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 1: he hasn't been getting those rushing attempts that was sort

220
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: of why he was really interesting in the first couple

221
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: of games in the season. That has gone away in

222
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: this offense. And I don't know if that's because now

223
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: they're getting their running backs back and using three guys

224
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: in that backfield. But I think I don't know if

225
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: this is the big breakout game for McLarin that we've

226
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: all been waiting for. But I do think he's going

227
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: to get more downfield shots, a chance to pick up

228
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: yardage and chunks and hopefully a few receptions. Means he

229
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: puts up a decent fantasy number for you. I know

230
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: he's been he's been frustrating so far this year. He

231
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,719
Speaker 1: had we know how great he is. This isn't a

232
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin things is a Carson Wentz in that offense.

233
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: This is a Washington Commander's offense thing without a doubt.

234
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: Check out this nugget brought to us by our cracked

235
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: NFL research team, Jamar Chase. Through five weeks, his fantasy

236
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 1: point per game production is down in two almost four

237
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: and a half points from where he was the same

238
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: time last year. Points per game ranking a six teeth

239
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: versus eighty one, but way more targets at thirty five

240
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: targets to this point last season fifty three right now,

241
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,839
Speaker 1: which actually puts him fifth, whereas last year he was

242
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: tied for twenty nights. So the the big plays haven't

243
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: been there, the targets have been there, the big plays

244
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,719
Speaker 1: have not said begs the question at this point, are

245
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: you trading four or trading away Jamar Chase. I'm trading

246
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: for Jamar Chase all day. Um. I I believe in

247
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: his talent. I believe in the connection there with Joe Barrow.

248
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: What I'm not crazy over is Zach Taylor and his

249
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: offensive scheme. Because when you watch the Bengals games, and

250
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: like I went back and watched a couple of them

251
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: solely to see what's going on with Jamar Chase, they're

252
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: the defense is aligning up with deep safeties no matter

253
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: what side of the field Jamaar Chase like, they're following him.

254
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 1: They're not following Tee Higgins. They're daring the Bengals because

255
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: that's how scary Jamar Chases. He can literally change a

256
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: game with one or two plays, so defenses are like

257
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: petrified of him, and the Bengals are just allowing this

258
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: to kind of happen and I'm like, yo, move them around,

259
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: put Te Higgins next in which they started to do

260
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: last week, which I thought was an encouraging sign. But

261
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna believe in the talent of Jamar Chase there,

262
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: and I would try to get him now because this

263
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: price is probably lower than it's been at any point

264
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 1: this season. You may have a frustrated manager who was

265
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: willing to listen to an offer. If I have Jamar Chase,

266
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: I'm holding onto him. If I don't, I'm trying to

267
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: acquire him because, like you said, the talent profile is

268
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: too good. The Beagles offense is going to start making

269
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: big plays and at some point they're gonna start using

270
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase is more than, you know, a glorified possession receiver,

271
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: which is kind of what he's been so far this season.

272
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: So I'm not worried about him. I know it hasn't

273
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: been what you wanted it to be, but I think

274
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 1: it's going to be all right it in the long term.

275
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 1: That gets back to our game previews, the forty Niners

276
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,239
Speaker 1: at the Falcons and and first off, George Kittle, who

277
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: once upon a time was very much in the category

278
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: of elite fantasy tight ends. I don't know if he's

279
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: that anymore. He certainly hasn't given us any elite production

280
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: in some time. What's your confidence level in starting him

281
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: this week. I don't think he's an elite tight end

282
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 1: right now. I think there's only two elite guys at

283
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: this position and Kittle. I'm sorrying Kelsey and Andrews, but

284
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: I still think kittles in that like next group of

285
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: tight ends. He's in there with like zach Ertz, Dallas Goddard.

286
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: I'll put David and Joku in that group as well.

287
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: I still think tight end is too weak to get

288
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 1: away from Jorda, Like he's not gonna be what you

289
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: want him to be when he drafted him, but it's

290
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: too weak of a position to get away from him.

291
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: That's the things that you're starting him every week because

292
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: the ceiling is still relatively high. If they start feeding

293
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: him some targets, it's just the target share hasn't been

294
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: there like it has been in the past, and the

295
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 1: yards after the catch have not been there. That's been

296
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: a big part of his game. He hasn't really had

297
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: that so far this year. But because as you mentioned,

298
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: the tight end pool is so shallow, and George kittle

299
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: ceiling is so high. I think you're starting him, especially

300
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: in what, at least on paper, is a good matchup

301
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 1: for him this week against Atlanta. Do you think the

302
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: yards after the catch haven't come because of this injury

303
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: that he was dealing with and coming I do. I

304
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: do wonder about that, and not just this injury, but

305
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: you know, he's been beat up a lot the last

306
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: couple of years, and you wonder if it's the accumulation

307
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: of all these injuries that are sort of slowing him down,

308
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: because he was just a monster after the catch with

309
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands, and we haven't seen that

310
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: so far this season elsewhere, though, what else are you

311
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: doing in this Niners Falcons game? I have And this

312
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: pains me to say, Marcus, I have Drake London as

313
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: a sit this week. I sat him in one of

314
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: my one of my leagues already. It hurts, right, It's

315
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: not his fault. It's it's because of Arthur Smith and

316
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: because of Marcus Mariota. But we need production at the

317
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: end of the day in fantasy football, and and Drake

318
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: London just hasn't provided it the last two weeks. His

319
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: two weeks combined is less than eleven Fantasy points, and

320
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: it's because Arthur Smith is trying this weird strategy where

321
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: he's like, I'm gonna try to beat you without using

322
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: my best players. I don't get it. But while he's

323
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: doing it, we need to respond and react accordingly in Fantasy.

324
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: And then he's going up against I know they're banged

325
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: up right now, Markets, but that nineers defense is still very,

326
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: very scarious. It is a bad matchup for a player

327
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: that's not getting a lot of opportunity. Nothing points to

328
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: this being an optimistic set up for Drake London. Like

329
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: I said, I sat him. I think I sat him

330
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: in favor of Alan Lazard. I mean that's that's sort

331
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: of where I am. Right there. You're gonna say Robinson

332
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: and I was gonna be like, too far, No, I'm

333
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: not doing that Alan Lazard. And even that, I'm not

334
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: super confident him Patriots at the Browns and we talked

335
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: about it at the start of the show, but Romandre

336
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: Stevenson is absolutely a must start this week if you

337
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: have him. It looks like he's going to dominate the

338
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: backfield opportunities. With Damien Harris out of action for the

339
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: next few weeks. It looks like gonna catch the football

340
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: out of the backfield. We saw last week against the

341
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: Lions it was really a heavy emphasis on the run.

342
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: They're not gonna let Bailey Zappy throw the ball times.

343
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: That's just not gonna happen. So against a run defense

344
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: that has been shaky at best this year, the interior

345
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: of the Browns defensive line has not been very stout.

346
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: This is an easy, easy call to start Romandre Stevenson,

347
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: Jets and the Packers. Packers still sort of licking their

348
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: wounds after last week losing in London to the Giants.

349
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: Now they got the Jets at home. What are you doing?

350
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: They're probably gonna take it out on the Jets. So

351
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: oh men. But I think in this game, I'm going

352
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: to sit a J. Dillon. And coming into the year,

353
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: and especially after Week one, we were we thought myself,

354
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: specially included thought that a J. Dillon would have standalone

355
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: value being r B two, maybe even better in fantasy football,

356
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: and that just hasn't been the case. And last week

357
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: it bottomed out. He played uht of the snaps that

358
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: was the season low. He had six carry, a season low,

359
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: no target, season low, and then he had a season

360
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: low and fantasy points as well, but he's also been

361
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 1: in single digits four straight games. Now, I don't think

362
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: you drop him because I think he's one of the

363
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: elite handcuffs if anything happens to Aaron Jones. But I

364
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: think right now you you can't start him in fantasy either.

365
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: In what I thought was going to be more of

366
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: a fifty fifty split, it's definitely starting to swing more

367
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: in the direction of Aaron Jones and a J. Dillon

368
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: has not been dirty productive over the last couple of weeks.

369
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: Jaguars in the Colts. I said, this is gonna be

370
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 1: kind of a weird game because for whatever reason, the

371
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: Jaguars seemed to have the Colts number lately. They did

372
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 1: it at the end of last season, they did it

373
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,679
Speaker 1: at the start of this season. So now they get

374
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: another shot at him, and I'm saying, just beware of

375
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman. I get it with Buys, you probably have

376
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: to start him. But the jack secondary has not been awful,

377
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: throwing the fact that Matt Ryan has been pretty bad

378
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 1: for much of the season, and Indianapolis seems to have

379
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: found a secondary receiver in Alec Pierce, which means they

380
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,199
Speaker 1: don't have to force targets to Michael Pittman. I do

381
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: think he has upside potentially, and I also think that

382
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 1: this is a week where the floor potentially is very

383
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: very low. So if you do have a lot of

384
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: depth at wide receiver, maybe you consider it. But if

385
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 1: you gotta start him, understand that the numbers might not

386
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: be what you want them to be this week for him.

387
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: Vikings at the Dolphins, we talked about two a tug

388
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: of Voloa not being available this week but working out

389
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: on the side with the team. Skyler Thompson expected to

390
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: get to start. What does that mean for say, Jalen Waddle.

391
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: I think you should be aware of Jalen Waddle, And

392
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: I know I'm bringing a lot of doom and gloom

393
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: on this Wednesday. It's it's a gloomy day in l A,

394
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 1: which is also my favorite weather um fun fact. But

395
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: I think Jalen Waddle is someone that you maybe can't

396
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: get away from because the upside is so high. But

397
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: last week, in a game where Thompson threw thirty three times,

398
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: Waddle saw just three targets for twenty three yards, like

399
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: scored just over five fantasy points. Again, the upside is

400
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 1: high enough where I get if you have to start him,

401
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: you might not have a better option, but you might

402
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: not get the production you're used to at a Jalen Moddle. Ideally,

403
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: Skyler Thompson just let's those guys get out in space

404
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: and let them operate. But it just it seems hard

405
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: to believe that they're gonna give you the same kind

406
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: of production that you expected when you drafted them. Probably

407
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: pretty high in your fantasy league. Sorry for another break.

408
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: When we come back, more start sits beware's all that

409
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,879

Speaker 1: and Saints Next up on our whipper around here, and

419
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: let's start with Taysom Hill, who is fantasy football's favorite

420
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: or maybe least favorite chaos agent, especially after what he

421
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: did last week. What kind of encore can we expect

422
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 1: from him against Cincinnati? I have no idea, and I

423
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: truly believe that is the correct answer. Like I think

424
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: he is the ultimate mystery box in fantasy football. He

425
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: could get you less than two fantasy points, or you

426
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 1: can get you thirty five like he did last week.

427
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,959
Speaker 1: It's why though, I think, like, if you've been one

428
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: of these teams streaming tight ends, he's worth it. Not

429
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: a shot, because no streaming tight end brings the safe floor,

430
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 1: but none bring a ceiling like Hayson. That's the thing,

431
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 1: and I kind of like him as a streamer this week.

432
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: Cincinnati has not been great against the tight end position,

433
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: and there's talk in New Orleans that they want to

434
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: get him more involved in the offense. I don't know

435
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: if that means that a pass catcher. I don't know

436
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: if that means he takes more snaps at quarterback or what.

437
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: But he's gonna get more touches in a matchup that

438
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: is semi favorable. He's worth at least a streaming shot.

439
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 1: I did see a funny tweet. I think he's played

440
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: more snaps at quarterback than tight end, but he's also

441
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: play more snaps on special teams than anything. So people

442
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: were like, he should just count as a D S

443
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: T Now I like that, although no, I don't like

444
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,919
Speaker 1: that because that means we're gonna get tweets about it,

445
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: like why don't you Markel Like, no, we're not doing that.

446
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: We're not doing that at all. I will say this elsewhere.

447
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: I think you gotta beware of Alvin Kamara this week

448
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: just because the Bengals up front have been very stout.

449
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: They're not giving up a lot of rushing yards. I mean, look,

450
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: they held more on Jackson's about fifty five rushing yards

451
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 1: this past week. So I liked last week the usage

452
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 1: that Camara was getting, even if he didn't score the touchdowns.

453
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: This week, I'm not sure it's going to be quite

454
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: the same. I also want to keep an eye out

455
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: on some of the other injuries there in New Orleans.

456
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: You know what is up with Crystal Lave, Michael Thomas,

457
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston. That one has something to do with it.

458
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 1: But I'm just not super confident in Alvin Camara this week.

459
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: Ravens at the Giants both teams escaping with wins on Sunday,

460
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,679
Speaker 1: And for you, what's the thing that we should pay

461
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 1: attention to. This is a tough game because we know

462
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: who to start in Baltimore. We know say Kwon Barkley

463
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: is the only real reliable starter on the Giants. But

464
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: I do think the Giants receivers here are sleepers. And

465
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 1: the reason I can't really talk about Indians in particulars

466
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: because they're all kind of up in the air right now.

467
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: I think Darius Slayton would be the one that I

468
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 1: would like the most, just because he's a field stretcher

469
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: and the Ravens have really struggled against wad receivers, especially downfield,

470
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: and this is probably going to be a game where

471
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 1: the Giants could be playing catchup and having to throw more.

472
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 1: But I will mention Wandale Robinson returned to practice last week.

473
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: He practiced today in a limited fashion. If he can

474
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: suit up, he's one that I would definitely be excited for.

475
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: And then I have to mention Darius to have to

476
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: but he's still not, Like, come on, Tony, There's so

477
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: much opportunity, But for now, I think Wandel is the guy.

478
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 1: The rules of the show state that you have to

479
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 1: mention it in my contract. It is you have to

480
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: convention at least once per show Bucks and the Steelers.

481
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that there's a sleeper in here, and

482
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: it's for shod White for Tampa Bay. And a couple

483
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: of weeks ago, you and I know, on on our

484
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 1: Sunday show, Cameron Wolf came on and said Bucks want

485
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: to use more running backs. We were like, yeah, whatever,

486
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 1: and then Rashant White got a whole bunch of targets

487
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: against the Chiefs, albeit in a losing s effort. Then

488
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: last week sort of more of the same eight touches

489
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: in back to back weeks for Rashad White, still getting

490
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: a lot of opportunities, and I feel like this is

491
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: the game. After seeing what the Bills did to the Steelers,

492
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 1: I think the Bucks can beat up on the Steelers

493
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 1: as well. I expect Tampa to be playing from my

494
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 1: head in the second half and knowing that they want

495
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 1: to save Leonard four net for a late season run

496
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: for the playoffs, this feels like a real good opportunity

497
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,920
Speaker 1: for Rashad White to get a significant number of touches

498
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: in the second half. So look, I'm when I say sleeper.

499
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: I'm talking to people in twelve, probably fourteen team leagues.

500
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 1: If you're in an eight team league, don't start Rashad

501
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: White and then you know come to me complaining about it.

502
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: That's not this is not for you. This is deeper leagues.

503
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: But I think White has some some sleeper potential. This week,

504
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: I like it. They've been throwing the ball a ton

505
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,679
Speaker 1: to their running back. Absolutely Panthers at the Rams. The

506
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: Rams kind of a mess, the Panthers trying to pick

507
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: up the pieces after firing that rule. What do you

508
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 1: think in this week? I think you could start both

509
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: defenses this week. The Rams have allowed more fantasy points

510
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: to defenses than any team in football. And then we

511
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 1: know the mess that the Panthers are. But for a

512
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: specific player, I think Tyler Higbee is just a player

513
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,719
Speaker 1: that you start each and every week. And when we

514
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: were talking about George Kittle, I mentioned like the second

515
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 1: tier of tight ends, Tyler Higbee is firmly in that tier.

516
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,199
Speaker 1: Get ten targets last week, seven catches forty six yards.

517
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: We talked about it a lot. The Rams entire offense

518
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: right now is Cooper Cup and Tyler Higbee and and

519
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: as long as Higby's getting the volume he should be

520
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: in the starting lineup. Cup and Higbee are the only

521
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: two startable Rams right now. No one else from that

522
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: office Matthew Stafford, Alan Robinson, cam Akers, none of those

523
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:47,239
Speaker 1: guys are startable besides Cup and Higbee. Cardinals and the

524
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: Seahawks big matchup in the NFC West, and I like

525
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: Rondale Moore as a sleeper. They are starting to get

526
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 1: him a lot more involved in recent weeks. Plus the

527
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: thing that we have decided on earlier this week and said,

528
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: you can pretty much start everybody against the Seattle Seahawks defense.

529
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 1: They are bad pretty much across the board. And watching

530
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: the Cardinals get the ball in More's hands, let him

531
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: use his athleticism and his speed to make some plays.

532
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:13,719
Speaker 1: I think he's got some sleeper potential if he can

533
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 1: get a decent number of targets, maybe even find one

534
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: in the end zone. But I do like his chance

535
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: to put up a decent number as a flex option

536
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 1: this week for a lot of fantasy managers. An epic

537
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: one going down at Arrowhead Stadium. The game of the week,

538
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 1: at least on paper, the Bills and the Chiefs, a

539
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: rematch of that amazing. I would say American League AFC

540
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: the divisional playoff game. I know you probably don't like

541
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,679
Speaker 1: to remember it because he did not end well for

542
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 1: your squad, but for the rest of us, it was

543
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: super entertaining. Gave Davis the huge game last week, three

544
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: catches over a hundred seven yards and a couple of touchdowns.

545
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: How does he follow that up in Week six. I'm

546
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: not gonna say he's gonna do another Randy Moss type performance,

547
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 1: but I think he's gonna have a good game, and

548
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 1: I think he is someone that you should be starting.

549
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: He's still leads the Bills and air yards for target.

550
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 1: He's second in the NFL behind only Chris so Lave.

551
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 1: So we know that they're gonna take plenty of deep

552
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: shots with him in a game that could be very

553
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: high scoring. Uh and the Chiefs have struggled against receivers

554
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 1: this year. We saw Davontae Adams torch them deep multiple

555
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: times last week. And then let's not forget that DeVante

556
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 1: Adams last time they played, became the first player in

557
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 1: NFL playoff history to top two hundred yards and four

558
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: touchdowns against the Chiefs. I think all of those are valid.

559
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: I do think Gave Davis is very much in play

560
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: this week. I know we talked about the fact that, look,

561
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 1: he's going to have big weeks, He's going to have

562
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: weeks that let you down. But this feels like a

563
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: game where again both teams are gonna score a lot

564
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: of points, They're gonna move up and down the field,

565
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 1: So that very much puts the game Davis in play.

566
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 1: Clyde Edward Hilaire did not score touchdown, had a pretty

567
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 1: bad game fantasy wise against the Raiders on Monday night.

568
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 1: Do you trust him against the Buffalo defense? I think

569
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 1: I think so. I think Clyde Edward Hilaire, though, is

570
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: who he is at this point, Like there's going to

571
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: be very down weeks, there's going to be there high weeks.

572
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: It it all depends on if he scores a touchdown

573
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: or not. And I know he's not going to score

574
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: a touchdown every game. But even on Monday night, he

575
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: had a bad game. He was stopped at the one

576
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: yard line twice. Like if he gets in on those

577
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,679
Speaker 1: on those plays we're talking about, Claude Rod, delay are

578
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: very different and that's sort of how the season has gone.

579
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: I mean, he's splitting snaps essentially three ways when you

580
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: figure Jerick McKinnon and Isaiah Pacheco are there, and yet

581
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: somehow he seems to find his way into the end zone,

582
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: and that has salvaged his fantasy production so far this season.

583
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,719
Speaker 1: But a game like we saw on Monday night felt inevitable.

584
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: When you're talking about his kind of sporadic usage, it

585
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: just felt like one of these games was gonna come.

586
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 1: I I say this because he's getting looks down near

587
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 1: the goal line. I think that makes him worth at

588
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 1: least a flex spot. But I'm not super crazy about

589
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: playing him against a Buffalo defense that's been very good

590
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: so far. Beyond that, anybody else that you are keeping

591
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,360
Speaker 1: an eye on for this one, Yeah, I'm very concerned

592
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,920
Speaker 1: about Juju Smith Schuster. I wrote beware Juju, but then

593
00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: I just I've kind of changed my tune and I'm

594
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: just exit Juju Smith Schuster, like, and this isn't even

595
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: about the matchup, Like, yes, the Bills are very very

596
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: good against wide receivers, but this is more about Juju. Like,

597
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 1: he's getting eight targets, and four of the five games

598
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 1: so far this seasons, he three times has been held

599
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 1: in single digits he had more targets and fantasy points

600
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 1: on Monday night, and he's yet to reach fifteen. So

601
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,479
Speaker 1: there's not a very high ceiling so far with Juju.

602
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: The floor has been, uh, not very high. I think

603
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 1: until we see sons of life from Juju Smith Schuster,

604
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: you can get away from him right now. All our

605
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 1: thoughts that he could be kind of a wide receiver

606
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: too in this offense, at least for the first five weeks,

607
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,680
Speaker 1: have not been there and and it is getting hard

608
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: to wait on him in an offense where they're spreading

609
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: the football around quite a bit. Sunday Night Football, it's

610
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and the Eagles. Mike McCarthy said today that

611
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott will do some light throwing after practice. The

612
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys are preparing as if Cooper rush we'll get to

613
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: start on Sunday against the Eagles. So that being said,

614
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: who scores more points at wide receivers It's Seedee Lamb,

615
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: A J. Brown, or DeVonta Smith. I'm gonna go with

616
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb partially because I think the Cowboys are gonna

617
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: be playing from behind in this game, um, but also,

618
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: like I know, he had a down week in Week

619
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 1: five five catches fifty three yards. He had a fifty

620
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 1: percent target share. Cooper rushed through sixteen times, eight of

621
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: them went to Seedee Lamb. Like the volume is huge

622
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 1: for Lamb. The only thing that went wrong last week

623
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: was the Rams offense literally could do nothing. They had

624
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: no fight in them whatsoever. It was a blowout for

625
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. But I don't think that will be the

626
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: case this week against the Eagles. No, I don't think

627
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: that will be the case at all. I think this

628
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 1: is gonna be a back and forth game. I think

629
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: it'll be fairly close throughout. So I'm gonna say a J.

630
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 1: Brown is a guy who scores the most points this week,

631
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 1: and you know, I felt like it's gonna be an Eagle,

632
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: either him or device to Smith. But I think with

633
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: that pass rush, part of the success for the Eagles

634
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: is going to be getting the ball out quickly, and

635
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 1: I think if that means they can get a J.

636
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: Brown on some one on one matchups, let him use

637
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,719
Speaker 1: his strength, use his ability after the catch. I think

638
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: there's potentially a really big game for him there. But

639
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: all three of these receivers should be in your lineup

640
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: this week without a doubt. Just the kind of game too,

641
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: that A. J. Brown was brought in for. That's exactly

642
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: the kind of game he was brought in for, So

643
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: we'll see if he produces for Philly in this one.

644
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 1: I would also say beware of Miles Sanders because last

645
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 1: week was not a great week for him. This week,

646
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: that Dallas defense has been very tough. We saw how

647
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: much we saw how much they shut down the Rams

648
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 1: run game, but the Rams have not been able to

649
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: muster much of a run offense so far this season.

650
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 1: But I do think that Miles Sanders may be in

651
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: for a tough slog this week against the Cowboys. If

652
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: he is able to produce, it will be catching the

653
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: football out of the backfield, which we know you can do.

654
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: But I just have a sense that this one is

655
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: going to be on the arm and legs of Jalen

656
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: Hurts to try to win this one for Philadelphia. It's

657
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 1: time for Who's Gonna Eat? Presented by Uber Eats. Managing

658
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: a fantasy team and hitting refresh on your scores works

659
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: up an appetite, so order with Uber Eats today, let's

660
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 1: talk about the Broncos Chargers matchup. Florio. Who you think

661
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: is gonna have a day. In this one, I think

662
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 1: you could start the man with the your favorite nickname

663
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: in the NFL, Melgo. It's catching and I've seen other

664
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,479
Speaker 1: people using it. I don't know how I feel about this.

665
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: I think Bill vic Gordon is very much in play

666
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: this week. He led the Broncos backfield of the Snaps

667
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: fifteen carries and three targets in his first game without

668
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams turned it into over a hundred yards of production.

669
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: And what you have to love most of all is

670
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 1: he did not fumble. The Chargers have allowed the most

671
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: fantasy points of running backs after being in the top

672
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 1: two or three in that category last season as well.

673
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: It is just a team that you can run the

674
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: ball against and Marcus. This is also another one of

675
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 1: our favorite narratives, revenge Alright, it's the Charges. Plus I

676
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 1: don't know if Nathaniel Hackett wants to keep letting rust

677
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,479
Speaker 1: cook because the kitchen is a mess. The ingredients are

678
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 1: all burned. It's it's it's bad, it's all bad for

679
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: for the Broncos office. That was Who's Gonna Eat presented

680
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: by Uber Eats, official on demand food delivery partner of

681
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 1: the NFL. Even if you make the wrong fantasy lineup call,

682
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: make the right call on delivery order with Uber Eats today. Hey,

683
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: by the way, we mentioned it at the top of

684
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: the show. There are four teams on a bye this week.

685
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 1: It's the Lions, the Texans, the Raiders, and the Titans.

686
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: And so because of that, we're gonna give you some

687
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 1: guys to stream looking at quarterbacks, tight ends, and a

688
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: defensive streamer. That's generally what it is for the onesie

689
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: positions across your lineup. So I will say this, I'm

690
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: gonna start and don't laugh. Jimmy Garoppolo is a streamer

691
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: this week against the Carolina Panthers. It's funny as I

692
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 1: scroll Twitter on a regular basis, I feel like there

693
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: is a vast difference in how forty Niner fans feel

694
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: about Jimmy G versus how the rest of the football

695
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: world feels about Jimmy G. I there are a lot

696
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: of people out there who are like, I will accept

697
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: no Jimmy G slander, and forty Niner fans just like

698
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 1: grit their teeth and like want to, you know, smash

699
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: an egg over their heads. It's this is a situation

700
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 1: though against the Falcons, where if you are ever gonna

701
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: start Jimmy Garoppolo, This is it. Atlanta doesn't get a

702
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: lot of pressure on the quarterback. Jimmy Garoppolo not the

703
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 1: most mobile guy. But if you let him stand back

704
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: there in the pocket, he is going to pick you apart.

705
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: And if he can get the ball out to say

706
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: Ammuel Outsai you and maybe get George Kittle involved a

707
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: little bit, I think he can have a very good day. Look,

708
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 1: i'd start him over guys like say Carson Wentz this week,

709
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: certainly over Matthew Will, certainly over Matthew Stafford for sure.

710
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: Jimmy g isn't play for me in week six? I agree.

711
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: I think the matchup is great. And and if you

712
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,480
Speaker 1: miss out on Jimmy G or if you're a forty

713
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: Niners fan who doesn't want to get him in your

714
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: starting line up, I think you could pivot to Daniel

715
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,719
Speaker 1: Jones there um who actually wrote and this starts sit

716
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: It's like a streaming option this week. And I know

717
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: it sounds gross, but the Ravens have really struggled against quarterbacks.

718
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: I know they've played better than the last couple of weeks,

719
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 1: but on the year, they have really struggled in that secondary.

720
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones has rushed for at least twenty one yards

721
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: every game, so you're gonna get a little bit of

722
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,479
Speaker 1: production with his legs. It's trusting the match up here,

723
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 1: and I agree with the names that you said, like

724
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: I would play him over like Matthew Stafford or if

725
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: your quarterbacks on a bye something like that. You know

726
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 1: how you know it's the bye weeks. You have suggested

727
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: the streaming Daniel Jones and sleeper for the Giants wide receivers.

728
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: You know that everybody's on some players this week. Over

729
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: to the tight end streamer you talked about the Giants,

730
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about a former Giant and Evan Ingram

731
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: and look, tight end. We keep saying it. It's not

732
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 1: been great this year, but Ingram has had a couple

733
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 1: of nice games so far this season, and when the

734
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: matchup is right, you can sort of count on him

735
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 1: to make some plays. Now. I don't know that you're

736
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: gonna get fifteen to twenty points, but if you can

737
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 1: get ten to twelve, like now, that's kind of all

738
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: you want out of a tight end. And I have

739
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: a tight end streamer that feels sort of like a win.

740
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 1: So the Colts defense has been underwhelming so far this season.

741
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: I know Trevor Lawrence has had his issues, has been inconsistent,

742
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: but I would say, if you're really hurting at the position,

743
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram might be worth a look for you, which

744
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 1: is weird to say. I completely to me, I think

745
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: he is the top streaming tight end option this week.

746
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 1: And and yeah it might be gross, but it's coming

747
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 1: off of the best game of the years, so in

748
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: a good matchup, but if you missed out on him,

749
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 1: I think no offense is another name that you can

750
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: go out and pick up. And I'm seeing a lot

751
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 1: of people on like Fantasy Twitter and stuff talk up

752
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: Will dis Lee in this matchup. I'm gonna pivot and

753
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: go with Noah Fan, who is coming off of his

754
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 1: best game as a member of the Seahawks, where he

755
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: played a season high sixty of the snaps. He saw

756
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 1: five targets, which is more targets then Will dis Lee

757
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 1: has in any game this season, and he caught three

758
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 1: of them for a season high forty nine yards. And

759
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: the reason why I like Fan and other people like

760
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,800
Speaker 1: will dis Lee is because of the matchup. The Cardinals

761
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: have allowed these second most fantasy points to to tight

762
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 1: ends and in yards touchdowns they're up there as well.

763
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 1: So it's just trying to find a piece in a

764
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,399
Speaker 1: hot offense against the struggling defense. A proof that Noah

765
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: Fant is not doing much this year. On the video

766
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: show we had no b roll, I was wondering why

767
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,280
Speaker 1: I was like I was on there was just Florio

768
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 1: on camera because you know, we just don't We don't

769
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 1: have highlights of Noah fan so far this year. One

770
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 1: last one, I got a defensive streamer for you. I

771
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: would say the Jags against the Colts because, as I mentioned,

772
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 1: the Colts seemed to not be able to figure out

773
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: the Jaguars the last few times they played. Plus are

774
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: really good at getting to the quarterback and Matt Ryan

775
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: has been a nightmare. I mean we talked about the

776
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: number of turnovers that Matthew Stafford has had. Matt Ryan

777
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: has turned the ball over quite a bit himself. So

778
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: if they can get pressure on him and get a sack,

779
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,360
Speaker 1: maybe force a fumble, maybe get him to throw it

780
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: to the wrong colored jersey again, if you're if you're

781
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: hurting defensively and you need some help, Jaguars could be

782
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: a nice pickup, and I'm sure they are very widely

783
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: available on waiver wires this week. By weeks are here,

784
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 1: injuries have happened, chances are the waiver wire in your

785
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: league looks pretty thin, but you still gotta figure out

786
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: ways to improve your team. So it's about time to

787
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 1: start talking about making some trade. So we each have

788
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: some guys we want to trade four and some guys

789
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: we want to trade away. For you, Florio, who's a

790
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: guy that you should be looking to try and acquire

791
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,240
Speaker 1: right now? The player that we both had to apologize, myself,

792
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: especially to Josh Jacobs, like I was down on Josh

793
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,359
Speaker 1: Jacob's heading into this year, and I was dead wrong.

794
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: I'm not afraid to admit that he currently is the

795
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: RB four right now. He is more Fantasy points and McCaffrey, Derrick,

796
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,879
Speaker 1: Henry Leonard for Nett, and I don't think people are

797
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 1: valuing him. I think he's an RB one, but I

798
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: don't think people are valuing him as one just yet.

799
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,919
Speaker 1: So I think you can this is an opportunity where

800
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 1: you can go out and buy high get an RB

801
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: one without maybe paying that RB one part. And I

802
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: think this week, especially with the Raiders on a buy.

803
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 1: If you can afford to wait, why not make the

804
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: deal this week for a team that maybe is needy

805
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: at running back and then got your deal. You got

806
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 1: yourself a quality RB for the remainder of the season.

807
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay at running back. And I want to

808
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 1: say Raheem Moster. Now let's just preface it this way.

809
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 1: You're not giving up huge assets for Rockey Moster, right,

810
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 1: Like I don't want I don't want to get you know,

811
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: a tweet saying, hey man, so I got Raheem Moster,

812
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:45,800
Speaker 1: but I traded away James Robinson like that, I do

813
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,359
Speaker 1: good And I know you didn't. Don't do that. But

814
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 1: rahe most of the guy who has taken over the

815
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: backfield there in Miami. He's made Chase Edmonds pretty much

816
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: expendable in a lot of fantasy leagues, and as long

817
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: as he stays healthy, I expect him to continue to

818
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: get a big workload. And you're if you're acquiring him,

819
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:03,880
Speaker 1: it's as maybe a third running back, it's as a

820
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,280
Speaker 1: depth option. But he does have a lot of potential

821
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: in this offense. And I think you know right now

822
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: he's probably just sitting on somebody's bench, not getting a

823
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 1: whole lot of playing time right now. Yeah, and and

824
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: we've seen he's fully taken over from Chase Edmonds, So

825
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 1: I think this is a good call. Alright. So those

826
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: are the guys were trading four. Who's a guy you

827
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 1: are trading away? This is gonna call some stirs, I think.

828
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,359
Speaker 1: But I would trade be looking to trade Dalvin Cook

829
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: right now. And I'm not saying like get rid of

830
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: him for anything, but there's definitely cause for concern with

831
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. We saw him get banged up earlier this year,

832
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: and since then his snaps have been dwindling. He played

833
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: just fifty seven percent this past week. That's a season low.

834
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: He has just four targets in his last three games combined.

835
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 1: And meanwhile, while he's losing playing time, Alexander Madison was

836
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,280
Speaker 1: more involved than ever. Like typically when Dalvin Cook plays,

837
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 1: we don't see a whole lot of Madison, we saw

838
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: a whole lot of him this past week. He had

839
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: a season high and snaps. Uh, he had four targets,

840
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: He had a season high and carries. It's are you

841
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 1: something for Dalvin Cook? But I think Cook is still

842
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 1: valued as an RB one, So you could trade him

843
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: for say a Josh Jacobs or Damian Pierce or Breece

844
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 1: Hall and another piece I think, but not a Raheem.

845
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: Most do not trade Dalvin Cook for Rocky most at

846
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 1: least not straight up. There better be some some other

847
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 1: pieces involved there. Yeah, the Dalvin Cook frustration, I know

848
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: it's high. I had people in my mentions a couple

849
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: of weeks ago saying they were done with him. I

850
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: just had to stay the course. But I think at

851
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 1: this point, if you are let's say you're one in

852
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,839
Speaker 1: four and you need help, it might be to make

853
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 1: the move. I feel think you trade away Deonte Johnson.

854
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: At this point. He's still going to lead the Steelers

855
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: in targets. He is the number one option in the

856
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 1: passing game. But let's look at what kind of passing

857
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: game it is right now. It's not very good. They've

858
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 1: made the switch from Mitch Trabisky to Kenny Pickett, and

859
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:45,760
Speaker 1: that seems to have given it at least a little

860
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,280
Speaker 1: more life, but not enough that I feel great about

861
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 1: starting Deonte Johnson. We're also seeing George Pickens get some

862
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,760
Speaker 1: more opportunities. Chase Claypool seems to have kind of vanished

863
00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: from relevance at this point. So here's the thing you

864
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 1: could trade at Deonte Jhnson. You can still sort of

865
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: sell him as a wide receiver to to somebody and

866
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 1: let them know that, hey, look, he's gonna get a

867
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,760
Speaker 1: large target share, but you can leave out the fact

868
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: that it's not really amounting into much yardage wise or

869
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: touchdown wise. But just say, hey, look at look at

870
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 1: all these targets Deante Johnson's getting you like targets. Take

871
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 1: those targets. We know Deonta is better than this. Imagine

872
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: what he's gonna do with all this volume now when

873
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 1: he starts getting hot, when he and Kenny Pickett like

874
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: really connect and build a report, it's gonna be off

875
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: the chart. So here, I'm just doing you a favor

876
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,279
Speaker 1: and and you're helping you out with Deonte Johnson. Let's

877
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: get to some of our top sleepers. Four weeks six, Florio,

878
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 1: who you guys. Alec Pierce someone that I hope you

879
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:41,399
Speaker 1: tried to pick up on waivers if he was out

880
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: there in your leagues. But Alec Pierce has has seen

881
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: his targets, catches, and receiving yards increase every single game

882
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,719
Speaker 1: he has played this season, and last week on National TV.

883
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 1: I think we really got to see him winning over

884
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,879
Speaker 1: Matt Staff, Matt Ryan. He led the Colts in every

885
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:01,240
Speaker 1: receiving category. I think he won over Matt Ryan his trust,

886
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:02,879
Speaker 1: and I think he's going to be a big part

887
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 1: of his passing offense. They need someone opposite of Pittman,

888
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:07,800
Speaker 1: and I think he's the guy. They absolutely need somebody

889
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 1: opposite of Pittman. I'd like to see his snaps and

890
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: his routes go up, and I think that's gonna happen.

891
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: I don't know how much longer they can really keep

892
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: growing with Paris Campbell, who's giving them nothing in the

893
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 1: passing game. So you talked about Melvin Gordon Melgo as

894
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 1: a start this week. I like Mike Boone also as

895
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 1: a sleeper for a lot of the same reasons. The

896
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,360
Speaker 1: Chargers run defense has not been particularly great, and we

897
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: saw last week Mike Boone get a number of opportunities

898
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,919
Speaker 1: in that game. And this was a backfield that even

899
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: when Javonte Williams was there, there was probably a sixty

900
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 1: forty split in terms of the two backs. I imagine

901
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,400
Speaker 1: that's going to sort of continue where Gordon is going

902
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 1: to be the lead back, So Mike Boon is going

903
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,720
Speaker 1: to get opportunities. We know he can catch the football,

904
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 1: he's running it effectively as well, and as long as

905
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: they aren't letting rust cook too much, that means the

906
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 1: running backs get a whole lot of work. And so

907
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: I sort of like Mike Boone in this one. Another

908
00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 1: sleeper for you this week on Mike Boon re he

909
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: he showed explosiveness last week, and I think that that

910
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 1: greatly matters because that's what Javonte Williams was in there for.

911
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: Ladavias Murray isn't gonna do that. So I I really

912
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,399
Speaker 1: like Mike Boon this week and moving forward as well.

913
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: Another sleeper Corey Davis because I know Garrett Wilson and

914
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 1: Elijah Moore are the receivers that fantasy players want to

915
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,800
Speaker 1: see breakout and are excited for. Uh Well, Corey Davis

916
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 1: is Zach Wilson's guy right now. Like he has a

917
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,399
Speaker 1: nineteen percent target share that's tied for the team lead

918
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,439
Speaker 1: with Garrett Wilson. He's a twenty eight percent air yard

919
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,880
Speaker 1: share that leads the Jets. It's just ahead of Elijah

920
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: More So he's getting the air yards that we like

921
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,800
Speaker 1: that Elijah Moore has been seeing. He's getting the targets

922
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: that we like that Garrett Wilson has been seeing. At

923
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: some point we gotta be like, hey, maybe Corey Davis

924
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 1: is the wide receiver that actually is the one that

925
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:46,320
Speaker 1: we need a roster pretty much. You have enough on

926
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 1: Elijah More now at this point. I had him as

927
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: a sleeper a couple of weeks ago. I think you

928
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: finished with eleven yards and at that point, I'm like,

929
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 1: it's probably just not gonna happen, at least not consistently

930
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 1: for Elijah More. My last one is Joshua Kelly for

931
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 1: the Chargers. So I'm going on both sides of that

932
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 1: Chargers Broncos game. And last year there was talking that

933
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: maybe josh Kelly is gonna really start to take away

934
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: from Austin Ekeler, and that that didn't happen. In fact,

935
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 1: we saw it two years ago where he had that

936
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 1: great start of the season and then sort of vanished

937
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: last year, was not used very much this year, though

938
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 1: he looks like a different player. He's getting opportunities, he's

939
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:22,239
Speaker 1: a lot more effective. Already has more rushing yards this

940
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 1: year in five games and he did last year in

941
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: ten games. Look, this is always going to be Austin

942
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: Ekeler's backfield. Don't confuse this for me saying he's going

943
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,919
Speaker 1: to take over the number one job. But it does

944
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,359
Speaker 1: look like the Chargers want to preserve Ekeler as much

945
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 1: as possible, which means you're gonna see more Joshua Kelly.

946
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: Sonny Michelle after maybe the first week or two hasn't

947
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 1: been getting a whole lot of work. This feels like

948
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,360
Speaker 1: Joshua Kelly getting some opportunities. The Bronco run defense has

949
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: been mediocre, and so I think there could be Again,

950
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 1: this is deep leagues. We're not talking eight or ten

951
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 1: team leagues. We're talking deeper leagues where josh Kelly has

952
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 1: some sleeper potential this week. Yeah, I mean those who

953
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: were on his hype train like two years ago are

954
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 1: are they can rejoice now? Yeah, it just took the

955
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: train into the little while to get there, but it

956
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 1: seems like it's pulling into the station right now. If
