How much your fab 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.320 budget are you spending on guys? Do you want to 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.720 burn your waiver priority or not? We are also going 0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:18.119 to take a look back at last night's game Monday 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:20.360 Night Football between the Giants and the Lions. And I 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.880 don't know, but if you were listening to this show, 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.479 yesterday before Monday Night Football. Then you pretty much had 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:29.600 that game cold. I told you about how much I 0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:33.319 like that Detroit Lions offense with Matthew Stafford and Jim 0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:36.920 Bob Cooterer. I told you about the proclivity of the 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:41.360 tight end against the Giants defense, and Eric Ebron showed up, 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.640 showed out, got you a touchdown. And I also told 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:48.720 you about my concerns and fears for the New York 0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:53.880 Giants offense. I told you that offensive line was blunt, guts, trash, 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:57.360 and everybody now knows it. But if you listen to speeds, 0:01:57.560 --> 0:01:59.920 you we were ahead of the game. You faded the Giant, 0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:04.639 you faded Eli Manning. Okay, And also I've been saying 0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:08.560 for a while now that Shane Vereen is the back 0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:12.120 to own in New York because it at PPR action. Well, 0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:14.480 he also led the team in rushing as well. So 0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:17.480 we're gonna be all right there. Okay. Like I said, 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:20.120 we're gonna get into week three a little bit. You know, 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:21.840 if we have time, we're gonna get into our game 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.320 by game previews. I'm gonna tell you the top waiver 0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.480 wire ads, the top drops, and how I feel about 0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:30.560 those guys, and we will also take your calls. The 0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:32.679 number to call if you don't already know is eight 0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.840 four four eight four three six eight seven nine.

I appreciate the support you can get 0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:54.760 us at F and T s Y Radio as well. 0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:58.640 Our poll question for tonight, which of the top ads 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.600 that are happening right now in Fantasy Football four Week 0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:05.040 three would you be most likely to spend your waiver 0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:08.320 priority or a big chunk of your fab budget on? 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:12.000 My choices are Richard Higgins and the wide receiver of 0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:14.799 the Cleveland Browns. Is it Chris Thompson, the running back 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.280 out there in Washington, or is it Chris Carson, the 0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:20.440 running back in Seattle who I believe has officially leap 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:24.320 frogged Thomas Rawls in that depth chart for the Seahawks. 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.720 We will find out. And like I said at the 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:28.480 end of the show. You know what we do here 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:30.600 on the Fantasy Freestyle. We also put the fun in 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:34.120 functional sports radio. There's been a couple of interesting people 0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:38.520 athletes on Twitter uh lately that we got to talk 0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:42.520 about Kevin Durant and also Brandon Marshall after last night's game. 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:44.440 It's kind of interesting. We'll get into that at the 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:46.080 end of the show. We'll take your calls and we'll 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:48.520 look ahead to we be three waiver wire ads and 0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:52.040 game previews when we come back. We're dropping stats over beat. 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:55.040 It should boy Dame Martinez on the Fantasy Freestyle. Right 0:03:55.040 --> 0:04:00.880 here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Let's go. I 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:02.800 always wanted to go to Minnesota, but never had a 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:04.880 reason to. Well, this year is that's where the Big 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:07.760 Game is, and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network wants to 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.280 send you there.

We'll be 0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:50.960 popping things right here, dropping stats over beats. It's the 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:55.080 Fantasy Freestyle and Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Everybody knows my 0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:57.760 whole crew, and you can get everybody on my crew 0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:01.040 on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network k app. If you're 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:04.679 not listening live, you need to download the Fantasy Sports 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:07.719 Radio Network app. This way, whether it is live or 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:10.640 on demand, you get not only Speeds, the spitting Statistician, 0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:13.240 you get my Man, Tony Sincada, you get the King 0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.839 Scott Angle, you get the all in Kid, Jake Seally. 0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:19.160 You get guys like Greg Sussman, Corey Parson, Mike Florio, 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:24.480 Frank Stanfeld, Joe Galina, mom Man, Joe Pisa, Pilla and 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:27.400 everybody giving you what you need to win your leagues 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:30.040 and win that cash. Alright, let me give you some 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:32.200 news and notes from around the NFL, and we start 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:34.920 with Jordy Nelson, who remember was pulled in the first 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:37.479 quarter of Sunday Night Football last week. They are saying 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:40.760 he is fifty fifty for Sunday game at home against 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.920 the Cincinnati Bengals because of that quad issue, he is 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:46.839 fifty fifty if he does not go. I think it 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:49.480 is a big time boost to guys like Davante Adams, 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:54.200 guys like Martellis Bennett, and guys like Tie Montgomery. Ti Montgomery, 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.800 who is right now the number two rated running back 0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:02.240 in all of fantasy football. In Cleveland, wide receiver Rashad Higgins, 0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:04.560 who is on our poll as one of the top 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.960 waiver wire ads. This week, he is apparently being listed 0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:11.120 as a starter on the Cleveland Browns depth chart. I 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.640 think that's very interesting because they have, in fact move 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.840 Corey Coleman to I R. He has now broken his hand, 0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:19.560 and not one but two years in a row. It 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:21.919 seems like it's gonna be Rashad Higgins as one of 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:25.520 the starters. He even out snapped Kenny Britt last week. Okay, 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:29.000 he got four snaps Kenny Britt only forty two. Maybe 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:30.960 he's someone you can spend a little bit of fab 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:32.760 budget on. We'll talk about that a little bit later. 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.679 On Head coach of the Washington football team, Jay Gruden 0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:39.120 says that he's gotta be quote unquote, gotta be careful 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.000 with Chris Thompson. Remember Chris Thompson blew up was a 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.239 diamond in the rough and somebody that I've been telling 0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:48.360 you about, especially in PPR formats for a long time. 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:51.719 But remember remember last week when I told you that 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:53.760 Ron Rivera said that he didn't want to use up 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.160 Christian McCaffrey. He was like a new toy. You didn't 0:06:56.160 --> 0:06:58.400 want to use the batteries on. It's another one of 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.120 these PPR kind of backs, okay, And you don't want 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:03.080 to get them stressed too much. I'm thinking about guys 0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:05.599 like Danny Woodhead. I think about guys like Shane Vereen. 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:08.039 I think about guys you know, like Pop Quiz or 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:11.000 Charles Sims down in Tampa. Also. You like what they 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:13.040 can do, but if you turn to if you use 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.120 them a little too much, if you use them outside 0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:17.400 of their role, then they could get banged up, and 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:19.600 that's not good for anybody. So that's what Jay Gruden 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:24.040 is saying about Washington running back PPR stud Chris Thompson. 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.120 I actually love the play next week of Chris Thompson 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:30.320 against the Oakland Raiders at home on Sunday Night Football 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:33.360 I think Chris Thompson will continue to return value for you, 0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:36.680 especially in PPR leagues. And remember those Raiders are bad 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:40.400 against the past, all right. Also, unfortunately the Carolina Panthers 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:43.120 have in fact moved greg Olsen their tight ends too 0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:46.480 injured reserve. I think on the first on the first 0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:49.680 thing is what does that mean for Carolina? For Carolina, 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:52.120 I think it is a big boost to Kelvin Benjamin. 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.080 Calvin Benjamin is one of these kind of off the 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:57.200 radar guys who's always returning wide out two numbers at 0:07:57.200 --> 0:07:59.040 the end of the season and you don't really think 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.600 about it. I think eve In more opportunities go Kelvin 0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:04.600 Benjamin's way with the loss of greg Olsen. The same 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.720 can be said for Christian McCaffrey. And keep an eye 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:08.600 out on the other rookies. The second round pick out 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:11.320 of Ohio State, Curtis Samuel, I think he can start 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:13.680 to grow an opportunity as well down there in Carolina. 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:15.320 If you had Greg Olsen, though, and you need a 0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:17.440 tight end. Let me tell you something right now, in 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:20.760 six of leagues only owned is Jack Doyle. You can 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:24.160 get Jack Doyle and he's unowned in a third of 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.920 leagues right now. Check him out. I think Jack Doyle 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:31.640 could be someone you want, especially coming up this week 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:34.600 they play the Cleveland Browns. You know that defense can 0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:37.679 be had, and Jack Doyle actually leads the Colts in targets, 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:40.559 in receptions and receiving yards. If you need someone a 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:43.840 little bit lower, tried Jesse James on the Pittsburgh Steelers. 0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:46.000 He's only owned in thirty five percent of league, so 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:48.480 two thirds of you can go out and get Jesse James. 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:50.480 He is moving to be the actual tight end option 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:52.920 for Big ben and the Steelers. If you don't like that, 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:56.079 only owned in a quarter of leagues. This Charles Clay 0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:59.040 out in Buffalo. Charles Clay could lead the Bills like 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.360 he did last year in targets and catches. Check him out. 0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:04.760 And if you want to go real bargain basement, if 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:06.679 you're in a real deep league, there's people have two 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:09.800 tight ends on their roster. Check out Zach Miller on 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:12.920 the Chicago Bears. Okay, with Jordan Howard Hurt. You know 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:15.840 that their wide receiver corps has been decimated. Mike Glennon 0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:18.000 not getting a lot of time they want to check down. 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:21.520 Think about Zach Miller on the Chicago Bears. Last note 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.560 I want to give you here is that the Jaguars 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:27.839 have claimed former Texans wide receiver Jalen Strong, the Arizona 0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:31.560 State product off of waivers. Okay, that is probably just 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.480 a bench depth ad behind guys like Alan Hearns and 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:38.920 market Um and Mark Easley. But remember Alan Robinson got 0:09:38.960 --> 0:09:40.920 injured in Week one. He tore his a c L 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:42.400 is out for the rest of the year. So the 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.040 Jags are getting Jalen Strong to kind of fill that need. 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.319 All right, let's keep it moving here. On the fantasy freestyle, 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:49.760 I told you about Monday Night football. I told you 0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:52.520 exactly how that was gonna go down. I called my shot. 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:55.200 When it comes to the Giants offensive line and this 0:09:55.400 --> 0:10:00.600 dumpster fire of an offense with or without oh L Beckham, 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:02.440 I think this is a problem, and I think this 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:05.960 problem is going to continue. Did you see Eric Flowers 0:10:06.160 --> 0:10:09.160 last night left tackle for the Giants? And more noticeably, 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.360 did you see Ziggy Ansa just completely eat his lunch 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:16.319 play after play after play. They need to figure out something, 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:19.000 whether it's a back chipping, whether it's them sliding the 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:21.920 line that way to support Eric Flowers. Um they need 0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.120 to do something or maybe even just move Flowers to 0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:26.880 right tackle. I told you about this, and Ansa is 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:30.199 a good pass rusher, but not a great one. Next week, 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:33.480 the Giants go to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles, 0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:35.600 and one thing that the Eagles do well is rush 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:39.600 the passer. Brandon Graham Fletcher Cox to be journe again 0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:41.600 there in the middle of that line. First round draft 0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.680 pick Derek Barnett. I am legitimately scared for the health 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:49.200 of Eli Manning next week in the City of Brotherly Love. 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:52.240 I also told you about Shane Vereen. Guys, Shane Vereen 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:56.160 twenty eight rushing yards, but that led the Giants. You 0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:58.679 throw on another twenty seven pass and receiving yards. He 0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:01.679 gives about sixty yards in total the three catches. I 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:04.880 think that's gonna continue. Paul Perkins seven night carries for 0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:09.760 ten yards, Dumpster Fire Orleans Dark War three carries seventeen 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:13.520 yards trash. Okay, this is gonna be Shane Vereen's job 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:17.040 before long. And your boys spitting speeds called that. Also, 0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:20.679 what's the deal with Brandon Marshall. Brandon Marshall now has 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:24.199 been targeted five times in two games with the Giants, 0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:27.040 one of which Odell Beckham was not playing. What is 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:30.080 his role on this team? You know? They also speculated 0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:32.200 that he just might be done. Remember two years ago 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:34.560 he had under over a hundred catches. Last year for 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:38.120 the Jetsy at fifty some odd catches, maybe he's just done, 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:40.360 you know. And if that's the case, you need to 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:42.840 find anybody that would take Brandon Marshall if he's on 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:46.360 your roster. I think he is actually cutible. Brandon Marshall 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:50.040 is cutible in my opinion. On the other side, listen, Detroit, 0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:53.040 they just didn't need to continue playing in the second half. Okay, 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.400 they were grinding it down, trying to run out the clock. 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:59.319 But Matthew Stafford continues to look like an elite quarterback. 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:03.079 Amurale Ula looked good against this Giants defense, where I 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:05.120 thought they were gonna be good against the run. But 0:12:05.160 --> 0:12:08.400 Amuradula had seventeen carries for eighty six yards. Theo rittick 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:10.920 in the game as well, and Eric Ebron. I told 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:13.960 you about how Eric Ebron was gonna eat because the 0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:17.120 Giants are struggle against the tight end. And Eric Ebron 0:12:17.160 --> 0:12:20.360 did that forty two yards on five catches and a touchdown. 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.840 So if you had him in your lineup, he returned 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:25.319 you double digit points. The last thing I'm gonna say, 0:12:25.480 --> 0:12:27.560 and this is the exact reason why we tell you 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:32.080 to not go crazy and overreact. After week one, after 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:36.320 week one, everybody's diamond in the rough was Kenny Golladay. 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.960 And I was saying, you know what, hold tight on 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:43.959 Kenny Galladay, because you got Golden Tate, you got Marvin Jones, 0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:47.280 you got Theo Rittick, you got Eric Ebron, you got 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:49.800 a Mere Abdullah and you never know. I called this 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:52.400 a fantasy whack a mole kind of pass offense, one 0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:54.800 of these offenses where the sum is greater than the parts. 0:12:54.800 --> 0:12:57.240 That's why I love Matthew Stafford, but not many of 0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:00.120 the individuals in the passing game. Yeah, Kenny Golla a 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:04.760 one catch for eight yards. That is why we don't overreact. 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:07.240 After week one, everybody was telling me, oh, I'm trying 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:10.920 to trade for Kenny Dolladay. Oh, Daniel stupid. Why don't 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:13.439 you get more Kenny Golladay. This is why he is 0:13:13.480 --> 0:13:16.760 still the third best wide receiver in that offense. And 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:19.360 I didn't think it was gonna do that much. Okay, 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:21.360 we got time we can go to the phone calls. 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:24.760 It looks like we got a couple of callers lined up. 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:27.719 Let's start it off right now. We got Step in Massachusetts. 0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:30.120 We're gonna take a couple of calls going into the break. 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.240 Then we're gonna break down our ads and are drop, 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:33.880 and then we'll go back to the callers a little 0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:37.400 bit later on. Our first call is Steve in Massachusetts. 0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:39.600 You're dropping stats over beats? My friend? How can we 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:49.760 help you out? Do we have Steve? Sounds like we 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:51.280 don't have Steve, So we keep it moving. We got 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:53.000 time for one or two more calls. Let's talk about 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:55.800 Blake in Houston. Blake in Houston, as a question about 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:58.400 j J. Nelson, what's up, Blake? You're dropping stats over beats? 0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:02.320 You are on the fantasy freestyle? What's up? Man? Appreciate 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.560 taking a phone call, man, I just want to know 0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:08.680 what j J? Just as overall value went up, I mean, 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:13.040 it looks like Brown's gonna be out another week. So yeah, 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:15.320 are you Are you asking because you have him already? 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:17.440 Are you asking because you like want to maybe spend 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:22.520 a waiver ad on him right now? Okay? So in 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.120 that situation Here's what I'm gonna say, Blake. Here's what 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:26.880 I'm gonna say, Blake for you, and thanks for the call. 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:31.600 I appreciate the love. Um. I personally would not be 0:14:31.720 --> 0:14:35.080 spending my fab budget or my waiver priority on a 0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:37.000 guy like J J. Nelson, But if you have J J. 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:40.440 Nelson ready on your bench, it's all good. Personally, I 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:44.200 just don't believe in the Arizona Cardinals offense west Smoke 0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:47.480 John Brown is there or not, whether David Johnson is 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:49.600 there or not. My thesis, and if you listen to 0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:52.040 the show before the season started, my thesis was that 0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:55.480 Carson Palmer was done as a quarterback okay, and now 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:58.640 that David Johnson is not really there anymore, I think 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:00.880 defenses are gonna try to protect against the past and 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:03.640 load up to try and stop Carson Palmer. Yes. J J. 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:06.360 Nelson is good for a bomb here or there, but 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:08.640 I don't think that's something you should depend on week 0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:11.400 to week. If it's a bloom more bus play to 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:14.320 have him in your lineups. I think you know Week 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:16.320 two is the best week he's gonna have all season. 0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:18.120 Coming back. Will take some of your calls, and I'll 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:20.120 tell you what I think about the most uh, most 0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:22.400 heavily added and drop players when we come back dropping 0:15:22.440 --> 0:15:25.120 stats over beats. It's the Fantasy Freestyle, the Fantasy Sports 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:34.920 Radio Network, Hunter, Henry Sterling Shepherd, Michael Thomas.

You know what it is? 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:17.160 Why Dave Lrtinez speeds to spitting statistician holding you down 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:20.840 on a Tuesday as we get ready for waiver wires 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:24.360 to run tomorrow and get your team ready for Week 0:16:24.440 --> 0:16:27.320 three of the NFL and had a fantasy football season. 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:29.200 One of the things we got up on Twitter as 0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:32.280 a poll question which top ad would you spend your 0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:35.880 you know, fab budget or your waiver priority on if 0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:39.160 you had the opportunity to for this week. My options 0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:42.960 for you are Richard Higgins and Cleveland, Chris Thompson and Washington. 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:46.320 Chris Carson in Seattle, or someone else let us know. 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:49.560 We already have hundreds of votes. So thanks to everybody 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:52.120 who's chiming in on Twitter, at F and T s 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:55.160 Y Radio. You can always follow me at spitting speeds 0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:57.040 as well. I'll be happy to try to help you out. 0:16:57.200 --> 0:16:59.320 Let me give you my take first on these these 0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:01.680 hop ads, some of the top drops that I'm seeing 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:03.760 after week two, and then we're gonna get back to 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:05.600 the phone lines. Okay, I see the phone lines are 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:07.879 lightening up. My man, Chris bofone had taken care of you, 0:17:08.160 --> 0:17:10.879 the bounty hunter right there, keeping it so hot that 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:14.280 we sweat steam, making us blow up like a Samsung seven. 0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:17.920 The top five ads that I've seen in season long leagues. 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:20.840 The first thing we shard Higgins. I mentioned it at 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:22.959 the top of the show. He's listed as a starter 0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:25.919 right now. You know, Corey Coleman is gone with that 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:29.600 broken hand. He may be someone who's designated to return 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:31.400 in about six to eight weeks, so keep an eye 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:34.360 out on that. The real question to me is what's 0:17:34.359 --> 0:17:36.800 going on with Kenny Britt. Kenny Britt, like I said, 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:39.800 was out snapped by Higgins last week, and Kenny Britt 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:42.399 is just really not a part of this team. It 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:44.480 almost seems as though the Browns are, you know, getting 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:48.320 ready to cut Kenny Britt. I think Rashard Higgins could 0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:51.280 be a viable play. Here's the only problem. And if 0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:53.399 you listen to the show, you know my thesis. I 0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:56.560 am trying to stay away from these bad offenses altogether, 0:17:56.800 --> 0:17:58.760 and I think Cleveland is one of them. They haven't 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:01.200 really gotten going. Isaiah A. Crow Well has not really 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:04.359 gotten going, averaging only about thirty yards a game. So 0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:07.040 I don't know if you really can trust them. You 0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:09.720 know how dynamic this Brown's offense is. So if you 0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:12.119 want to spend on something like the Browns wide receiver, 0:18:12.359 --> 0:18:14.280 even if you think he is their number one wide 0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:16.560 receiver and the jury is out on that. But if 0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:19.080 you're gonna go ahead and pick up Rashard Higgins, you 0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:21.720 better be dropping someone else from one of these like 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:24.720 quote unquote bad offenses or someone who is just out 0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:27.719 like a John Brown for example. Okay, Um, number two 0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:29.520 that I want to talk about, just like the caller 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:32.640 just said, is J. J. Nelson. And here's the thing. 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:36.680 I feel the same way. I believe this Cardinals offense 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:39.800 is go is spiraling out of control and his blunt, 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:41.879 guts trash, that's what I think it is. I think 0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:44.800 it's Carson Palmer and especially with no David Johnson. Okay, 0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.240 J J. Nelson is this kind of boom or bus 0:18:47.320 --> 0:18:50.840 kind of play. Uh Nelson is gonna be behind Larry 0:18:50.840 --> 0:18:54.240 Fitzgerald anyway, and I think he's touchdown dependent. Don't get 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:56.640 me wrong. He blew up last week, had a great week, 0:18:56.680 --> 0:18:59.680 but again it was against the Indianapolis Colts pass defense. 0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:01.560 He's not going to see a tasty matchup like that 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:03.879 from week to week. So I don't think J. J. 0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:06.480 Nelson is someone who I would invest in and think 0:19:06.480 --> 0:19:07.880 that he's gonna be a kind of week to week 0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:10.199 starter for me. Okay, if I'm going on the uh 0:19:10.359 --> 0:19:12.800 my fat budget on the waiver wire, I'm looking for 0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:15.479 someone who has the potential to be a starter for me, 0:19:15.760 --> 0:19:17.520 not only in by weeks, but like that I can 0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:19.760 actually use as a part of my team. Otherwise, I'm 0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:22.400 not wasting where I am on the list of priority. Okay, 0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:25.240 I'm waiting until I truly needed or unless your team 0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:28.600 was faced with an injury. Number three, however, is someone 0:19:28.640 --> 0:19:31.359 that I like, Okay, and it's Chris Thompson, the running 0:19:31.400 --> 0:19:33.959 back on the Washington football team. I've been telling you 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:36.760 a few situations where I think the past catching back 0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.280 is the back to own. I told you about Shane 0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:42.320 Vereen on the Giants last week. I told you about 0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:44.840 how I think Buck Allen can overtake Terrence West. And 0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:48.000 I've also been telling you about Chris Thompson on Line 0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:50.399 Up Block Live Sunday in Week one. He was my 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:53.679 diamond and the rough. I think that fat Rob Kelly 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:56.080 is just a guy. I think that they don't really 0:19:56.119 --> 0:19:58.280 like some g P Ryan. He has not kind of 0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:00.399 come on in the way that people exp act. He 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.480 struggled a little bit. I think that this Washington offense 0:20:03.560 --> 0:20:07.600 is also a volume passing game offense with Kirk Cousins, 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:10.199 and Chris Thompson is the back to own. I know 0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:13.920 head coach John Jay Gruden said we gotta manage him, 0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:16.000 we gotta limit him a little bit. But that's because 0:20:16.000 --> 0:20:20.000 he's showing up as the best player on that roster 0:20:20.119 --> 0:20:22.040 in terms of the running backs. Okay, so I like 0:20:22.160 --> 0:20:24.840 Chris Thompson. If he's out there, I think he is 0:20:24.880 --> 0:20:27.200 someone that you can invest some of your fat budget. 0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:29.720 You can put in a waiver claim for Chris Thompson. 0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:32.199 The fourth biggest ad right now is Chris Carson and 0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:34.560 Boyd who I believe in this one. Okay, I do 0:20:34.680 --> 0:20:38.439 believe that Chris Carson has surpassed Eddie Lacy, has surpassed 0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:42.000 Thomas Rawls as the back in Seattle. The only problem 0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:45.080 is that that offensive line is gonna be bad all 0:20:45.119 --> 0:20:48.280 season long. I am. I'm encouraged by the fact that 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:51.320 with that bad offensive line, Carson ran for over ninety 0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:54.280 yards last week, but that was at home against the 0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:57.160 bad San Francisco run defense. We'll see if he does 0:20:57.160 --> 0:21:00.639 it again. And there's also the chance that Thomas Rawls 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:03.480 is just like rounding into form, rounding into game shape. 0:21:03.480 --> 0:21:05.840 You remember he missed Week one. But I do think, 0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:08.200 as I told you yesterday, one of my biggest takeaways 0:21:08.480 --> 0:21:11.240 is that running back is a young man's hustle. Carson 0:21:11.440 --> 0:21:13.680 is the young man in that group. So I do 0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:16.920 think Carson is worth a way of claim and worth 0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:20.440 an add The fifth highest added player right now, um 0:21:20.600 --> 0:21:23.960 is Jayson Twitten, the age old tight end out there 0:21:24.040 --> 0:21:26.960 in Dallas. Okay, and listen if you need him, because 0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:29.080 you know the lost Greg Olsen. Let's say, and he's 0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:31.919 on your way of wire, or Jimmy Graham continues to 0:21:32.000 --> 0:21:35.040 defecate the mattress for you in Seattle, and you think 0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:37.399 that you need to go a different direction. Sure, but 0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:39.879 let me tell you something. He right now. Listen, he 0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:43.800 had nine targets in week one, thirteen targets in week two. 0:21:44.119 --> 0:21:46.320 I don't know that that is sustainable. I think Jason 0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:49.680 Witten will regress back to his normal status, which is 0:21:49.720 --> 0:21:52.680 a kind of plotter, little move the chains guy, only 0:21:52.720 --> 0:21:55.520 as a security blanket when Dac needs it. I don't know. 0:21:55.600 --> 0:21:57.400 I think you know, weeks one and two was kind 0:21:57.400 --> 0:21:59.320 of the peak of what Jason Witten would be. But 0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:01.720 if you need him, go ahead and get them some 0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:04.240 of the drops, the top five drops. And I'm not 0:22:04.240 --> 0:22:05.960 talking about guys who got hurt. Okay, I'm not talking 0:22:06.000 --> 0:22:08.640 about Greg Olsen. I'm not talking about Corey Coleman. I'm 0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:11.040 talking about people that are still out there that have 0:22:11.080 --> 0:22:13.399 been dropped. The first is Kerwin Williams. Yeah, you need 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:15.560 to drop Carlwin Williams. I'm telling you. My thesis is 0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:18.440 that the Arizona Cardinals offense is trash. It is a 0:22:18.520 --> 0:22:21.080 dumpster fire. And also I think on Chris Johnson, who 0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:23.879 they just you know, recently signed, but has been with 0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:26.040 that team before and he knows the scheme. I think 0:22:26.080 --> 0:22:28.880 Chris Johnson is ultimately going to be the number one 0:22:28.960 --> 0:22:31.480 running back that replaces David Johnson. And why are you 0:22:31.480 --> 0:22:33.840 gonna invest in the Cardinals anyway? Why are you gonna 0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:36.240 invest in anything in that Cardinals offense? They only it 0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.359 took them more than four quarters to put up like 0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:41.600 sixteen points against the Colts. Okay, so I would I would, 0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:44.040 I would drop them as well. The number two add 0:22:44.119 --> 0:22:47.399 and this hurts my heart. This hurts my heart. The 0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:50.879 number two, uh drop right now? Is my guy Boom 0:22:50.920 --> 0:22:54.040 boom bilal pal pal And I gotta tell you something. 0:22:54.680 --> 0:22:58.040 I understand. I understand he is firmly in that committee 0:22:58.160 --> 0:23:01.080 with Matt Forte and a lie to McGuire. The Jets 0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:04.879 are dog meet anyway, and there it seems like they 0:23:04.920 --> 0:23:07.960 are riding out Matt Forte. It seems like Matt Forte 0:23:08.119 --> 0:23:10.119 is getting more touches. I would not have thought that 0:23:10.160 --> 0:23:13.000 would be the case, but that was also the case 0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:16.240 early in the season last year. They used Forte a 0:23:16.320 --> 0:23:18.560 lot early in the season and by the middle and 0:23:18.560 --> 0:23:20.480 the end of the season, it was all balal Pow. 0:23:20.840 --> 0:23:24.920 I understand dropping balal Powell right now, but I personally 0:23:24.920 --> 0:23:27.800 would hold onto him because I actually think that this committee, 0:23:28.040 --> 0:23:30.600 I think Forte is gonna, you know, decrease, and I 0:23:30.600 --> 0:23:32.520 do think Powell will be a guy who you can 0:23:32.560 --> 0:23:35.359 have on your rosters. I understand dropping him now, but 0:23:35.880 --> 0:23:38.199 when he's in a three person committee with McGuire and 0:23:38.200 --> 0:23:40.679 how the Jets offense is so poor, but you know 0:23:41.040 --> 0:23:44.840 it hurts my heart. Um. The third biggest drop right now, 0:23:44.840 --> 0:23:46.640 and I definitely think you need to drop this guy 0:23:46.880 --> 0:23:50.520 is Legarrett Blunt in Philadelphia. Okay, LGBT has not been 0:23:50.560 --> 0:23:53.159 doing anything they like when those small Wood they like 0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:56.119 Darren Sprawls much better. It looks like Legarrett Bond has 0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:58.199 fallen off a cliff. He was doing things in that 0:23:58.240 --> 0:24:00.600 Patriots offense last year. It does him look like he's 0:24:00.640 --> 0:24:03.879 suited for this Philadelphia team. If you have the Garrett Blunt, 0:24:03.960 --> 0:24:05.600 you could try to flip him, try to trade him. 0:24:05.640 --> 0:24:08.240 Maybe someone respects the name value there, but I don't 0:24:08.280 --> 0:24:10.000 think that's the case. I think you need to move 0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:12.440 on from the Garrett Blunt. Number four on this list 0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:15.280 is Thomas Rawls, and I think this one is interesting. 0:24:16.119 --> 0:24:17.840 We talked about how Carson was one of the big 0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:20.280 time ads, so that's part of the reason why people 0:24:20.320 --> 0:24:24.440 maybe dropping Thomas Rawls, and I understand that. But here's 0:24:24.440 --> 0:24:27.720 the thing. Remember Rawls was injured, so maybe he's just 0:24:27.880 --> 0:24:30.440 rounding into form. Maybe this was like a preseason game 0:24:30.480 --> 0:24:32.760 for him. Okay, if I have if you have Thomas 0:24:32.840 --> 0:24:35.200 Rawls on your roster, I would wait one more week. 0:24:35.480 --> 0:24:37.840 I'd wait and see to see if this really is 0:24:37.960 --> 0:24:40.919 Carson's backfield, because you don't know. Yeah, the rookie just 0:24:41.000 --> 0:24:43.639 popped and had ninety plus yards in week two. But 0:24:43.920 --> 0:24:45.800 I would hold on to Thomas Rawls at least for 0:24:45.840 --> 0:24:47.800 another one or two weeks, just to see if this 0:24:47.880 --> 0:24:51.680 backfield really is, Like, is Carson really a bell cow workhorse. 0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:54.640 I'm not ready to say that just yet. I'd hold 0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:58.080 on to Thomas Rawls. And the fifth biggest drop is 0:24:58.240 --> 0:25:01.959 uh is Mr Hooper tight in Austin Hooper down in Atlanta. 0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:05.080 It's interesting. He had two targets in week one, and 0:25:05.080 --> 0:25:07.640 he had two targets in week two, but after week one, 0:25:07.880 --> 0:25:11.560 one of them was a touchdown, a seventies seven yard touchdown, 0:25:11.760 --> 0:25:13.600 and that helped out a lot of people all of 0:25:13.680 --> 0:25:15.720 a sudden. In Week two, he got us two touches, 0:25:15.880 --> 0:25:18.480 he got us two catches, but he only got like 0:25:18.520 --> 0:25:20.720 seven or eight yards. So that's why people are dropping him. 0:25:20.720 --> 0:25:23.280 I think there are other tight end options out there, 0:25:23.480 --> 0:25:25.320 and it does look like Austin Hooper is gonna be 0:25:25.400 --> 0:25:29.159 touchdown dependent, although in that Falcon's offense there's gonna be 0:25:29.200 --> 0:25:32.040 a lot of touchdown scored. Okay, So yeah, I understand 0:25:32.080 --> 0:25:34.000 dropping Hooper if you need another tight end or if 0:25:34.040 --> 0:25:36.359 you need the roster space, and because he is in 0:25:36.400 --> 0:25:39.920 fact touchdown dependent in my opinion. What I want to 0:25:39.920 --> 0:25:42.840 tell you about though, right now is the fantasy sports network. 0:25:43.560 --> 0:25:46.120 We are partnering with d k M S. I don't 0:25:46.119 --> 0:25:48.000 know if you know this already or not, but we're 0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:50.480 doing that to help fight blood cancer, okay. And the 0:25:50.520 --> 0:25:52.680 way it works is that if you go to Daily 0:25:52.760 --> 0:25:55.160 Roado dot com or if you go to Rhodo Experts 0:25:55.200 --> 0:25:58.800 dot com slash d k MS, what we're doing is 0:25:58.800 --> 0:26:02.560 we're putting out free entry daily fantasy contest every week 0:26:02.560 --> 0:26:05.520 of the football season, all right from weeks one through sixteen. 0:26:05.760 --> 0:26:08.440 Free to enter. You can compete, right, and if you win, 0:26:09.359 --> 0:26:14.000 you get entered into a DFS contest Week seventeen of 0:26:14.320 --> 0:26:17.080 the football season, okay, and there it's only gonna be 0:26:17.160 --> 0:26:20.600 a sixteen person contest. If you beat the other fifteen 0:26:20.680 --> 0:26:25.560 winners in week seventeen, you win two tickets to Super 0:26:25.600 --> 0:26:29.960 Bowl fifty two in Minnesota. Okay. And it's really great 0:26:30.000 --> 0:26:31.920 because as you go on, you're gonna learn a lot 0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:34.919 more about how you can flight fight blood cancer. And 0:26:34.960 --> 0:26:36.600 part of it is because you could be a donor. 0:26:36.840 --> 0:26:38.720 You could be a stem cell donor, you could be 0:26:38.760 --> 0:26:41.439 a blood donor, you could be a bone marrow donator, 0:26:41.520 --> 0:26:44.440 and that's really helpful with people who have this disease 0:26:44.520 --> 0:26:46.520 of blood cancer. And the people that they like the 0:26:46.560 --> 0:26:49.959 most to donate the blood bone marrow are actually guys 0:26:50.040 --> 0:26:52.159 between kind of like twenty and fifty. So it's a 0:26:52.160 --> 0:26:54.919 smart partnership for DKMS, the partner with the Fantasy Sports 0:26:54.960 --> 0:26:57.160 Network because that's what we do here. That is our 0:26:57.280 --> 0:27:01.520 demographic as well. It is a no Loue situation. My 0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:04.239 man Chris Bavona did it.

I told 0:28:50.520 --> 0:28:52.400 you a little bit about some injury updates. I told 0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:54.520 you about Monday night football, and I told you my 0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:57.840 take on the top waiver wire ads and drops as 0:28:57.880 --> 0:29:01.360 they run right now, probably on Wednesday morning, depending on 0:29:01.480 --> 0:29:03.320 your league. So I want to get you ready for that. 0:29:03.520 --> 0:29:05.600 We got a couple of calls on the line. Let's 0:29:05.600 --> 0:29:07.440 open up the phones and right now, if you want 0:29:07.440 --> 0:29:10.000 to hop on with speeds called now. The number of 0:29:10.040 --> 0:29:13.120 call is eight four four eight four three six eight 0:29:13.200 --> 0:29:15.120 seven nine, and we kick off this segment of the 0:29:15.160 --> 0:29:19.080 Fantasy Freestyle with who we're starting with. I believe we're 0:29:19.120 --> 0:29:22.880 starting with Mike in Chicago, Mike in Chicago. It sounds 0:29:22.920 --> 0:29:25.520 like you got a question about trading some running backs. Hey, Mike, 0:29:25.520 --> 0:29:27.480 you dropping the stats over beats on the fantasy freestyle. 0:29:27.520 --> 0:29:32.880 What's up? Yeah, bro, So I got I've got good 0:29:32.920 --> 0:29:36.560 running back. I've got my starters. It's DeVonta Freeman, Melpen 0:29:36.640 --> 0:29:40.400 Gordon's and at my flex I got Todd Gurley. So 0:29:40.560 --> 0:29:45.000 then on my bed I had Twik Cohen, Joe Mixon, 0:29:45.280 --> 0:29:49.200 and Derrick Henry. So I'm trying to get rid of 0:29:49.200 --> 0:29:53.479 the Cohen because I got I'm streaming a quarterback. So 0:29:53.520 --> 0:29:59.440 I'm trying to get a quarterback for Tweek Cohen. This 0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:04.280 is still there, all right. It sounds like you fell off, 0:30:04.280 --> 0:30:06.880 but let me help you out. Though you got Freeman, Gordon, 0:30:06.960 --> 0:30:09.800 and Girly as your top three. That is nice, okay, 0:30:09.960 --> 0:30:11.960 And you also have Mixing and Henry, and you mentioned 0:30:12.040 --> 0:30:15.160 Terreek Cohen as well. Uh, Terrick Cohen. I agree with you, man. 0:30:15.240 --> 0:30:17.400 I like what you're thinking. And uh, you know, if 0:30:17.520 --> 0:30:21.040 if if you're asking, I validate that, okay, Mike, I 0:30:21.040 --> 0:30:23.720 I I like what you're doing. And it here's the thing. Also, 0:30:23.880 --> 0:30:26.320 and says you're in Chicago, so I don't know who 0:30:26.360 --> 0:30:28.160 you're playing with. But if you're playing in a fantasy 0:30:28.160 --> 0:30:31.360 football league in Chicago, the people in your league probably 0:30:31.400 --> 0:30:33.840 want to get Terreek Cohen, right, So yeah, you said 0:30:33.880 --> 0:30:36.680 that you maybe wanted some quarterback help. Absolutely, I'd package 0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:39.800 your quarterback whoever that is, with Terek Cohen and see 0:30:39.800 --> 0:30:42.040 if you could upgrade at quarterback because you'll still have 0:30:42.120 --> 0:30:44.920 Freeman and Gordon and Girle that are studs, and you'll 0:30:44.920 --> 0:30:47.240 still have Mixing, who I believe is going to ascend 0:30:47.400 --> 0:30:50.479 under the new offensive coordinator in Cincinnati, and Derrick Henry 0:30:50.760 --> 0:30:52.880 as well. I hope you're hope that helps you out. 0:30:52.920 --> 0:30:54.480 I didn't get the end of your question, but I 0:30:54.480 --> 0:30:56.800 hope that helps you out. Mike, UM call that. Feel 0:30:56.800 --> 0:30:58.440 free to call it back if you want. We got 0:30:58.440 --> 0:31:02.080 Matt in Delaware. Matt Delaware has a question about who 0:31:02.160 --> 0:31:04.680 probably a guy that he spent his first round draft 0:31:04.720 --> 0:31:06.880 pick on and uh, you know is now on one 0:31:06.920 --> 0:31:09.800 of these bad offenses with bad offensive lines. We're talking 0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:12.280 about Odell Beckham. Matt and Delaware. You are on the 0:31:12.280 --> 0:31:17.680 Fantasy Freestyle. What's up, hey man? Thanks for having me on. Uh, 0:31:17.760 --> 0:31:21.080 I have O'Dell Beckham and you know he's He's cost 0:31:21.120 --> 0:31:22.520 me a couple of weeks with his injury and that 0:31:22.680 --> 0:31:24.800 his fault. You know, nothing can could be stopped from 0:31:24.840 --> 0:31:29.200 that happening. But I'm watching the Giants respected what you 0:31:29.200 --> 0:31:31.920 were saying last week, and I purposely didn't start O'Dell 0:31:32.040 --> 0:31:35.960 this week. Um, but I'm worried long term. I mean, 0:31:36.000 --> 0:31:39.880 should I look to trade O'Dell and maybe upgrade a 0:31:39.960 --> 0:31:41.920 running back position or something. And right now I have 0:31:42.040 --> 0:31:46.960 crow Well and Melvin Gordon. All right, um, and thanks 0:31:47.000 --> 0:31:49.120 for the calling, Matt, and I appreciate that you were listening. Yeah, 0:31:49.120 --> 0:31:51.160 I've been saying this for a little while, right, I've 0:31:51.200 --> 0:31:54.520 been saying that there is an impact to everybody and 0:31:54.560 --> 0:31:56.960 this Giant's offense. Let me let me tell you right now, Matt, 0:31:57.000 --> 0:31:58.760 the way I feel about this, Okay, And if you've 0:31:58.760 --> 0:32:00.240 been listening to the show, and it sound like you 0:32:00.280 --> 0:32:03.680 have him, and I appreciate it. When you lose a 0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:06.560 running back, you know, it's like next man up. When 0:32:06.560 --> 0:32:08.640 you lose your wide receiver, it's like next man up. 0:32:08.680 --> 0:32:11.520 But the same as not the case for the offensive line. 0:32:11.840 --> 0:32:13.720 If you look at some of these teams, the Cincinnati 0:32:13.760 --> 0:32:16.040 Bengals come to mind, the Seattle Seahawks come to mind. 0:32:16.040 --> 0:32:19.160 The New York Football Giants come to mind. This offensive 0:32:19.200 --> 0:32:22.480 line play is gonna be trash all season long. You 0:32:22.560 --> 0:32:26.320 saw you saw the game last night. Eli Manning has 0:32:26.480 --> 0:32:29.479 no time to throw, okay, and it's not like he's 0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:33.520 Russell Wilson with the escapability. I am concerned that this 0:32:33.600 --> 0:32:36.600 is going to put a damper on Odell's production. Now, Listen, 0:32:36.800 --> 0:32:41.600 Odell Beckham is a stud obviously, but you know, Matt, 0:32:41.640 --> 0:32:43.880 if you have other wide receivers that you could put 0:32:43.920 --> 0:32:47.080 in there, yeah, I wouldn't mind shopping Odell. I would 0:32:47.120 --> 0:32:49.440 imagine you mentioned Crowell as one of your backs. He's 0:32:49.480 --> 0:32:52.440 also underperformed, as you know, averaging about I think like 0:32:52.480 --> 0:32:55.680 thirty thirty five yards a game. See if you could 0:32:55.680 --> 0:32:59.080 package Odell and Crowell and get a true elite talent. 0:32:59.240 --> 0:33:01.160 You know when you're talking to about Odell and Crowell 0:33:01.280 --> 0:33:03.440 as a package, you could get the left Bells of 0:33:03.480 --> 0:33:05.960 the world. You can get the Julio Jones of the world. 0:33:06.000 --> 0:33:08.520 You can shoot for the moon and take on Antonio Brown. 0:33:08.760 --> 0:33:11.880 So yeah, I would see what is the market out 0:33:11.880 --> 0:33:14.960 there for Odell because I do believe that he is 0:33:15.000 --> 0:33:17.280 not going to perform like a top three wide out. 0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:19.880 The high ankle Sprain is something that can linger. But 0:33:19.920 --> 0:33:23.200 this Giant's offensive line in Eli Manning is a dumpster fire. Yeah, 0:33:23.200 --> 0:33:25.080 I would look to get away from that. Our next 0:33:25.120 --> 0:33:28.200 call Cliff in Boston. Cliff and Boston, friend of the show. 0:33:28.360 --> 0:33:30.160 We've been talking to him for a while. Cliff, you're 0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:32.239 dropping stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle. You got 0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:34.360 a question about Waivers that's gonna run tomorrow. What's up? 0:33:34.360 --> 0:33:37.560 How can I help you? Alright? Man, I got two 0:33:37.640 --> 0:33:41.560 quick questions for you. My first question, I just completed 0:33:41.560 --> 0:33:44.320 the trade. Want to hear your thoughts. Okay, So I'm 0:33:44.320 --> 0:33:47.360 gonna I'm gonna be sending over at James White, J. J. 0:33:47.560 --> 0:33:52.520 Nelson in return, I'm gonna beginning Kelvin Benjamin and Philip Rivers. 0:33:52.640 --> 0:33:57.640 Love it, love it, love it all right. First of all, 0:33:57.720 --> 0:33:59.600 let me tell you, let me tell you why. Okay. J. J. 0:33:59.760 --> 0:34:01.600 Nelson and just had his best game of the year. Man, 0:34:01.800 --> 0:34:03.360 he just had his best game of the year. And 0:34:03.360 --> 0:34:05.440 the Patriots running backs, I'm telling you it is a 0:34:05.480 --> 0:34:09.399 fool's errand to rely on anyone Patriots running back week 0:34:09.480 --> 0:34:12.200 to week. Kelvin Benjamin is actually someone who I think 0:34:12.239 --> 0:34:15.319 is going to ascend and get more opportunity now that 0:34:15.440 --> 0:34:18.080 Greg Olsen is out, and there's nothing wrong with Philip 0:34:18.120 --> 0:34:20.440 Rivers as one of your quarterbacks. I love that trade. 0:34:20.640 --> 0:34:22.799 Because I love that trade for you so much, you're 0:34:22.840 --> 0:34:24.640 gonna get a second question, man, How can I help you? 0:34:24.680 --> 0:34:28.840 What's Upcliff? Alright? Man? So in this same league that 0:34:28.880 --> 0:34:31.200 I'm talking and I'm number one right now in the 0:34:31.239 --> 0:34:34.480 waiver priority. Now, I don't really need to reach, but 0:34:34.680 --> 0:34:37.080 I do want to ask, do you think this week 0:34:37.640 --> 0:34:39.319 you know I should put in a waiver. I've got 0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:43.560 Chris Thompson available, I've got Buck Allen available, Chris Carson. 0:34:43.680 --> 0:34:46.120 Do you think those guys are worth the number one 0:34:46.120 --> 0:34:50.560 waiver priority? It's a tough question, man. Listen, here's the 0:34:50.640 --> 0:34:52.680 thing I don't know. I don't know about the rest 0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:54.560 of your running backs. Okay, I don't know about the 0:34:54.560 --> 0:34:56.239 rest of your running backs. But thanks for the call. 0:34:56.280 --> 0:34:57.960 You're talking about all these guys in the waiver while 0:34:58.000 --> 0:35:00.439 the Chris Thompson's, the Carsons of the world of Buck Allen, 0:35:00.520 --> 0:35:03.640 these are all running backs. The question is would they 0:35:03.760 --> 0:35:09.320 be weekend week out starters for you? You've already just traded, uh, 0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:11.879 James White, and you didn't get a running back back 0:35:11.920 --> 0:35:13.680 in that trade where it sounds like you got Rivers 0:35:13.680 --> 0:35:16.200 and Benjamin Back, so it sounds like you're dealing from 0:35:16.200 --> 0:35:19.640 a position of strength if you're okay, just trading James White. 0:35:19.880 --> 0:35:22.239 So without knowing more of it, and Cliff you could 0:35:22.239 --> 0:35:25.279 always call back later on in the week. But I personally, 0:35:25.600 --> 0:35:28.719 I would save that number one waiver priority. Okay. I 0:35:28.760 --> 0:35:31.480 think the number one waiver priority is a real asset. 0:35:31.640 --> 0:35:35.040 So unless you're in a situation where you need Chris Thompson, 0:35:35.280 --> 0:35:38.320 or you need Carson, or you need Buck Allen, because 0:35:38.360 --> 0:35:42.000 maybe you know you got a guy that hasn't performed well, 0:35:42.040 --> 0:35:44.720 like Isaiah Crowel, you've got a guy who got injured 0:35:44.800 --> 0:35:47.120 or something like that that you're worried about. Otherwise, I 0:35:47.160 --> 0:35:49.840 would hold on to the number one waiver priority and 0:35:49.840 --> 0:35:51.640 wait a little bit later on in the season when 0:35:51.640 --> 0:35:53.719 one of your guys goes down and you are in 0:35:53.760 --> 0:35:56.560 a position of need. You started by saying you are 0:35:56.600 --> 0:35:58.560 not in a position of needs. So because of that, 0:35:58.719 --> 0:36:01.200 I'd say hold onto the ass that that is the 0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:04.000 number one waiver priority. All Right, we got another caller 0:36:04.080 --> 0:36:07.160 it is John in North Carolina. John, and North Carolina 0:36:07.200 --> 0:36:09.640 has some questions. Let's get after it. John. You're dropping 0:36:09.680 --> 0:36:11.560 stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle. How can I 0:36:11.560 --> 0:36:15.879 help you? Oh? Man? So I got two questions for you. 0:36:16.360 --> 0:36:18.399 First one, it might sound a little crazy, but I'm 0:36:18.440 --> 0:36:21.160 thinking of dropping I'm stacked a wide receiver. So I'm 0:36:21.160 --> 0:36:24.719 thinking they're dropping Randall Cob for either Tyrok Cohen or 0:36:24.960 --> 0:36:29.279 Chris Carson. Uh. If you, if you are stacked at 0:36:29.360 --> 0:36:32.000 wide receiver, then I'm not mad at that at all. Okay. 0:36:32.040 --> 0:36:33.719 I don't know what stacked means to you, and we 0:36:33.760 --> 0:36:35.719 don't have time necessarily for you to read them all out. 0:36:35.760 --> 0:36:38.160 But if you believe you are stacked and Randall cop 0:36:38.400 --> 0:36:41.239 is like your fifth wide receiver, you know, here's what 0:36:41.280 --> 0:36:43.560 I'll say. Okay, Well, here's what I'll say is, first 0:36:43.600 --> 0:36:46.279 of all, check your studs wide receivers where you're all 0:36:46.320 --> 0:36:49.040 where you feel safe. Make sure all of their buys 0:36:49.160 --> 0:36:52.040 are on different weeks. Okay. And if that is the case, 0:36:52.280 --> 0:36:55.640 if you have say four wide receivers that are above 0:36:55.800 --> 0:36:58.759 Randall Cob and they all have different buys, which means 0:36:58.800 --> 0:37:01.000 you can plug in the fourth on for the bye 0:37:01.000 --> 0:37:03.240 weeks of all the other guys. If that is the case, 0:37:03.480 --> 0:37:07.640 then yes, go ahead and get yourself some Tarret Cohen. Okay, 0:37:07.719 --> 0:37:11.359 This Tarry Cohen kid is a thing. Jordan Howard is hurt, 0:37:11.600 --> 0:37:17.640 the Bears offense is trash, and Tarik Cohen leads in rushing, receiving, targets, receptions. 0:37:17.760 --> 0:37:21.319 He leads in every category. Okay, So yes, if your 0:37:21.320 --> 0:37:23.719 wide receivers are stacked and Randall cop is like your 0:37:23.719 --> 0:37:26.319 fifth or worst wide receiver, and the top four have 0:37:26.480 --> 0:37:29.279 different bye weeks, then go ahead and make that move 0:37:29.320 --> 0:37:32.279 and grab yourself Tarret Cohen. Okay. Um, thank you for 0:37:32.400 --> 0:37:34.719 a call, though, first time. I'm here from John in 0:37:34.840 --> 0:37:37.960 North Carolina. Hey, Chris, it sounds like we got some 0:37:38.000 --> 0:37:40.200 more calls, right, it sounds like we've got more calls. 0:37:40.200 --> 0:37:43.920 Our next caller's VJ in Texas. VJA Texas has some 0:37:44.040 --> 0:37:48.640 questions about ascending quarterbacks. Uh. VJ, you're on the Fantasy Freestyle. 0:37:48.680 --> 0:37:51.080 How can I help you? Hey man? How's it going? 0:37:51.120 --> 0:37:54.200 I love your show? An uh So, I got yeah, 0:37:54.239 --> 0:37:56.239 I got that question. First question actually two if you 0:37:56.320 --> 0:37:58.560 quickly answer it. One is, Um, I'm in the Standard 0:37:58.640 --> 0:38:00.680 League and I gotta stream a quarter rec this week 0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:03.719 because I have Mariota and I think he's gonna do 0:38:03.760 --> 0:38:06.799 well against seat level. So the streaming is either when 0:38:07.000 --> 0:38:12.239 Simeon or Cutler. And this is just for one week, 0:38:12.440 --> 0:38:15.120 just for this week, for one week, just this is 0:38:15.200 --> 0:38:17.000 one week, all right, just for this week. It is 0:38:17.040 --> 0:38:19.960 not Carson Wentz in my opinion, because that Giants secondary 0:38:20.160 --> 0:38:22.080 is good even though they did not show up or 0:38:22.120 --> 0:38:24.440 show out on Monday Night football. So I would not 0:38:24.560 --> 0:38:30.600 take Carson Wentz. Um Trevor Simeon is interesting. Um, I 0:38:30.600 --> 0:38:32.399 think Jay Carl. I think the Dolphins are gonna ride 0:38:32.440 --> 0:38:36.040 J G I E against the Jets this week. So 0:38:36.160 --> 0:38:39.239 of those, my pick would be Trevor Simeon because they're 0:38:39.280 --> 0:38:41.239 on the road, they're gonna have to throw. You got 0:38:41.239 --> 0:38:43.840 those whiteouts there in DT and Emmanuel Sanders and I 0:38:43.840 --> 0:38:46.319 think C. J. Anderson really opens up the passing game 0:38:46.400 --> 0:38:48.920 for Denver. So given those options and for a one 0:38:48.920 --> 0:38:53.040 week situation, I like Trevor Simeon, thank you so much. 0:38:53.080 --> 0:38:55.480 And my second questions is I gotta PPR league, have 0:38:55.600 --> 0:38:59.640 PPR league. I'm running three receivers and uh I got 0:38:59.640 --> 0:39:01.759 stepped on Diggs and I'm really worried that Bradford is 0:39:01.800 --> 0:39:04.879 not gonna play this week. So if I had to 0:39:04.920 --> 0:39:08.799 put step On Diggs in my um in in my 0:39:08.960 --> 0:39:13.440 slot or my flex slot position, yeah, my flex position, 0:39:13.440 --> 0:39:18.080 would I run Derrick Henry, Cooper, Cup, your buddy, Jackies 0:39:18.280 --> 0:39:22.200 Rogers or um Yeah, those are the three. You know 0:39:22.280 --> 0:39:24.440 my answer, man, You already know my answer. Come on, 0:39:24.480 --> 0:39:27.359 now we're gonna pop quiz jock. Quiz man. I think 0:39:27.360 --> 0:39:30.239 the Stefon Diggs. Listen, listen, man, I have Stefan Diggs 0:39:30.280 --> 0:39:33.719 in my own season long league, okkay, and I here's 0:39:33.719 --> 0:39:35.640 what I'll tell you. I do think the loss of 0:39:35.680 --> 0:39:38.920 Bradford impacts Digs the most on that team. Feeling is 0:39:38.920 --> 0:39:41.239 still gonna get his catches as a slot under the 0:39:41.320 --> 0:39:43.680 radar guy, Dalvin Cook is still going to get his work, 0:39:43.880 --> 0:39:45.799 and Kyle Rudolph is still going to get his work 0:39:45.800 --> 0:39:47.920 as well. Rudolph the red zone reindeer. I got them 0:39:47.920 --> 0:39:50.200 from a man, Cory Parson. I think that impacts Digs 0:39:50.200 --> 0:39:52.719 the most as a down the field outside guy, but 0:39:53.040 --> 0:39:55.279 it is not Derrick Henry. He had a great game, 0:39:55.320 --> 0:39:58.000 but that was because DeMarco Murray had a hamstring injury. 0:39:58.239 --> 0:40:01.560 You know, it. It's my man, pop Quiz Jocquiz Rogers, 0:40:01.640 --> 0:40:03.520 and they're gonna be in a more competitive game, so 0:40:03.560 --> 0:40:07.240 I think they're gonna use Jacquiz Rodgers for the entire game. 0:40:07.480 --> 0:40:09.640 Thanks for the call, though, everybody else, I'm gonna try 0:40:09.680 --> 0:40:11.719 and get you if I can when we come back 0:40:11.800 --> 0:40:14.760 right here, dropping stats over beats. It's the Fantasy Freestyle 0:40:15.040 --> 0:40:18.560 right here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network, 0:40:21.080 --> 0:40:25.680 Fantasy Freestyle. Unfortunately, the Carolina Panthers have in fact moved 0:40:25.680 --> 0:40:28.680 Greg Olsen their tight end to injured reserve. I think 0:40:28.719 --> 0:40:31.400 it is a big boost to Kelvin Benjamin. Kelvin Benjamin 0:40:31.440 --> 0:40:33.160 is one of these kind of off the radar guys 0:40:33.160 --> 0:40:35.520 who's always returning white out two numbers at the end 0:40:35.520 --> 0:40:37.160 of the season and you don't really think about it. 0:40:37.200 --> 0:40:40.120 I think even more opportunities go Kelvin Benjamin's way with 0:40:40.280 --> 0:40:42.080 the loss of Greg Olsen. The same can be said 0:40:42.120 --> 0:40:43.880 for Christian McCaffrey. And keep an eye out on the 0:40:43.880 --> 0:40:46.880 other rookies. Second round pick out of Ohio State, Curtis Samuel, 0:40:46.920 --> 0:40:49.200 weekdays from seven to eight pm e stern on the 0:40:49.239 --> 0:41:08.400 Fantasy Radio Network. This is serious. You should have a 0:41:08.480 --> 0:41:11.600 healthy fear of us. What's the rhymes? As we come 0:41:11.640 --> 0:41:14.600 back for here dropping stats over beats on a Fantasy 0:41:14.600 --> 0:41:17.600 Freestyle and the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network, on 0:41:17.640 --> 0:41:20.160 I Heart Radio, on tune In Radio, and on the 0:41:20.200 --> 0:41:24.520 Fantasy Sports Network YouTube Live. Uh, we're trying to hold 0:41:24.520 --> 0:41:27.080 you down, getting you ready for waiver wires and for 0:41:27.200 --> 0:41:30.080 NFL and Fantasy Football Week three. Thanks to everybody who 0:41:30.160 --> 0:41:32.520 called in at eight four, four, eight four or three six, 0:41:32.560 --> 0:41:34.359 eight seven nine. We don't have time for any more 0:41:34.400 --> 0:41:38.000 callers unfortunately this episode. Blake and Dallas, I see you. 0:41:38.000 --> 0:41:40.279 You're asking me about selling high on Todd Gurley. I 0:41:40.320 --> 0:41:42.640 wouldn't do that. I like Todd Gurley. I think it 0:41:42.760 --> 0:41:45.840 remains for the entire season. I think the addition of 0:41:45.880 --> 0:41:48.320 the wide receivers on the outside, the development of Jared 0:41:48.360 --> 0:41:52.240 Goff helps Uh, Todd Gurley. Allen in New York City, 0:41:52.320 --> 0:41:54.839 Steve out there in Canada, Hey, Steve, you're asking about 0:41:54.840 --> 0:41:57.440 t Y Hilton. I'm fading t Y Hilton. I think 0:41:57.480 --> 0:41:59.840 this Colts offense is trashed, and I don't think Andrew 0:42:00.080 --> 0:42:02.600 sees the field for a long time, if at all 0:42:02.960 --> 0:42:04.680 this year. But if you have more questions. You can 0:42:04.719 --> 0:42:08.160 holler at me on Twitter at spitting speeds is the 0:42:08.280 --> 0:42:10.759 handle follow me? Asked me questions, I try to hit 0:42:10.800 --> 0:42:12.880 you up. We asked you a question out there. We 0:42:12.920 --> 0:42:15.920 asked you which waiver wire ad would you go first with? 0:42:16.160 --> 0:42:18.480 And sixty three percent of you say Chris Carson, the 0:42:18.520 --> 0:42:21.400 running back in Seattle. I do believe he's leap frog 0:42:21.480 --> 0:42:24.000 Thomas Rawls and Eddie Lacey, but I would give it 0:42:24.000 --> 0:42:26.480 a little while. I wouldn't drop Thomas Rawls just yet. 0:42:26.560 --> 0:42:29.000 Remember he was dealing with that injury. As he gets 0:42:29.000 --> 0:42:33.000 into game shape, he may form a committee with Carson. 0:42:33.200 --> 0:42:36.399 All Right, I Wannah. I want to tell you about 0:42:36.400 --> 0:42:38.719 two stories that I thought were very very interesting, real quick, 0:42:38.800 --> 0:42:40.400 we have time. The first is I don't know if 0:42:40.400 --> 0:42:43.000 you saw this, but you know there are two Brandon 0:42:43.040 --> 0:42:45.239 Marshalls in the NFL, and a lot of people were 0:42:45.280 --> 0:42:49.480 trolling Brandon Marshall on the Giants after his performance yesterday 0:42:49.520 --> 0:42:52.920 and Monday Night Football. Brandon Marshall the other Brandon Marshall 0:42:52.960 --> 0:42:56.320 quote unquote on the Denver Broncos he was responding to people, 0:42:56.520 --> 0:42:58.279 and he was responding to people in a kind of 0:42:58.320 --> 0:43:00.799 like combative way. I thought it was very, very funny. 0:43:00.840 --> 0:43:03.640 Brandon Marshall, the linebacker on the Denver Broncos, responded to 0:43:03.640 --> 0:43:06.600 people saying, Yo, f the Giants, he said, and people 0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:09.000 thought it was Brendan Marshall, the wide receiver on the Giants. 0:43:09.040 --> 0:43:11.359 He responded to another guy, Yo, meet me in the 0:43:11.360 --> 0:43:14.080 parking lot after the game, because it is crazy if 0:43:14.080 --> 0:43:16.600 you think, actually Brandon Marshall the wide receiver is going 0:43:16.640 --> 0:43:20.399 to do that um with fans. And also he said, uh, 0:43:20.560 --> 0:43:23.120 come say that to my face to someone else who 0:43:23.200 --> 0:43:26.160 was trolling Brandon Marshall the wide receiver and just got 0:43:26.160 --> 0:43:28.880 it wrong. Make sure you know who you're actually trolling 0:43:29.120 --> 0:43:31.399 if you're gonna do that. Okay, I remember that same 0:43:31.440 --> 0:43:34.120 thing happened with LaVar Ball a few months ago. The 0:43:34.120 --> 0:43:36.520 other thing I wanted to tell you real quick before 0:43:36.520 --> 0:43:38.719 we get out of here on Fantasy Freestyle on a 0:43:38.840 --> 0:43:40.759 Tuesday is I don't know if you saw this, but 0:43:40.800 --> 0:43:43.399 I remember I was talking to you about that fight 0:43:43.440 --> 0:43:46.640 in the Desert on Saturday Triple G and Canelo Alvarez, 0:43:46.640 --> 0:43:49.480 and I told you about how Adelaide Bird scored the 0:43:49.520 --> 0:43:52.520 fight ten rounds to two for Canelo Alvabrez and how 0:43:52.520 --> 0:43:55.200 it made me feel dirty. It made me feel like 0:43:55.200 --> 0:43:57.000 while I saw a good fight and I could see 0:43:57.040 --> 0:43:59.200 how people would call it a draw. I thought Triple 0:43:59.239 --> 0:44:02.759 G one slightly um that the one eighteen to one 0:44:02.800 --> 0:44:05.600 ten score was absolutely ridiculous, and I was saying that 0:44:05.640 --> 0:44:08.040 Adelaide Bird was either on the take or needs to 0:44:08.080 --> 0:44:12.719 like go away, We'll check this out. Adelaide Bird has 0:44:12.760 --> 0:44:16.799 been forced to stand down as a judge, as a 0:44:16.920 --> 0:44:19.759 judge that scores fights in the state of Nevada. I 0:44:19.800 --> 0:44:23.600 think that's very interesting because of all this kind of backlash. 0:44:23.800 --> 0:44:27.280 In fact, Adelaide Bird has been told to stand down 0:44:27.440 --> 0:44:30.920 as a judge will not be judging world class fights 0:44:31.200 --> 0:44:35.439 anymore for the foreseeable future in Vegas. I formally tip 0:44:35.480 --> 0:44:38.319 my cap to whatever the boxing commission is out there 0:44:38.360 --> 0:44:41.000 in Vegas that decided to do that, because I agree 0:44:41.280 --> 0:44:44.120 it is a stain on the sport where the best 0:44:44.160 --> 0:44:46.960 fight the sport could make. Right now, people are leaving 0:44:46.960 --> 0:44:49.120 with a bad taste in their mouth, even though they 0:44:49.160 --> 0:44:51.920 saw a good fight, because they're just thinking that the 0:44:51.960 --> 0:44:55.400 game is rigged and boxing was fixed. So I appreciate 0:44:55.480 --> 0:44:58.080 that that move happened. Maybe when they have the rematch, 0:44:58.080 --> 0:45:00.200 which I believe will be on Sinkle the Mile two 0:45:00.280 --> 0:45:03.520 thousand eighteen in Las Vegas. Maybe it'll be on the 0:45:03.640 --> 0:45:06.200 up and up. Not say it wasn't, but this score 0:45:06.200 --> 0:45:08.839 from Adelaide Bird made it look like it wasn't. Come 0:45:08.880 --> 0:45:12.000 on back tomorrow Fantasy Freestyle. After waiver wires have run, 0:45:12.000 --> 0:45:14.359 We'll talk about free agent pickups, who to add, who 0:45:14.360 --> 0:45:16.400 to drop, who to trade for, and I'll start to 0:45:16.400 --> 0:45:18.839 preview game by game as we look ahead to Week 0:45:18.960 --> 0:45:21.480 three of the NFL season. If I didn't get to 0:45:21.480 --> 0:45:23.680 you on the phone, holler at me on Twitter at 0:45:23.719 --> 0:45:26.320 Spitting Speeds and we'll be back here tomorrow from seven 0:45:26.360 --> 0:45:28.920 a p m. Eastern Time, dropping status over beats. It's 0:45:28.920 --> 0:45:31.520 a Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network.
