Speaker 1: the show, Greg, and of course that was the lead
Speaker 1: up to the BFS And you know what Greig, you
Speaker 1: and I we might be considered barbie girls, but one
Speaker 1: person on the show that is certainly not. Once everybody
Speaker 1: foot about our own show, I mean, I can see
Speaker 1: the argument for it, but e Y definitely not you
Speaker 1: Y not a barbie girl. The only person on the
Speaker 1: show for sure not a barbie girl and looking to
Speaker 1: take out the Pit League. E Y, what's going on? Body? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I try not to be a barbie girl. I mean,
Speaker 1: sometimes can be an emotional creature at times. But yeah,
Speaker 1: in the finals of the pit in the finals of
Speaker 1: the w W main roster, in the finals in my
Speaker 1: home league. Had had a good year this year, boys
Speaker 1: had a real good year. Great year for e Y.
Speaker 1: Great year. They're going up against George Kurtz in the finals.
Speaker 1: Correct that correct? Correct? So maybe we have to put
Speaker 1: a little BFF fantasy football frenzy wager on this one, Grety,
Speaker 1: what do you think? Sure do? What's what are we
Speaker 1: offering here? I don't know. We'll figure it out. We'll talk.
Speaker 1: So basically, if e Y wins George just to fly
Speaker 1: up here, right, yeah, yeah, our our expenses are lifted
Speaker 1: towards kurt test to pay for it. Yeah, this is great.
Speaker 1: I love how this is on today's show, not some
Speaker 1: news and notes we want to talk about. I know
Speaker 1: Frank was doing some research on so the great performances
Speaker 1: we have gotten this year, and I don't know it's
Speaker 1: a surprise. I know that, but I think he's just
Speaker 1: kind of putting into context how good certain players will be.
Speaker 1: So let me start there and we'll get into any
Speaker 1: news and notes could affect you for this weekend. Tomorrow
Speaker 1: we'll start pre you doing games. Certainly this all the
Speaker 1: Saturday games will get into tomorrow. Um Sunday, well, for
Speaker 1: for Sunday, we'll do all that on Friday. Virginia Zaki
Speaker 1: will join us tomorrow as well. But I want to
Speaker 1: just take a second to reflect on a couple of
Speaker 1: things we were talking about, and this is all things
Speaker 1: the next week's show. And I said that we were
Speaker 1: gonna do next year's draft on today show. We're gonna
Speaker 1: push up the next week. We decided for the most part.
Speaker 1: But did we decide that, because I'm pretty sure the
Speaker 1: headline of the show says round, Well, you you said
Speaker 1: you want to mix it with notes and other stuff
Speaker 1: when we last talked, so I said that, you know,
Speaker 1: parts of the show can be about things that are
Speaker 1: happening right now, and then another part of the show
Speaker 1: can be look ahead to next year. Right. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: I then really like and I think there was like
Speaker 1: a full first round, like I was trying to do
Speaker 1: my head for next week. All right, Greig, this is
Speaker 1: your show. You're the bus driver. I am passenger, one
Speaker 1: of the passengers here. We will do whatever you say.
Speaker 1: Whatever you say goes like the bus counselor yes, I'm
Speaker 1: the leader of the m T A. E. Wi is
Speaker 1: the guy in the back that's just jeering us while
Speaker 1: we're driving the bus. He's he's like the bouncer on
Speaker 1: the bus, like if someone is misbehaving, Ey throws them
Speaker 1: off the bust. It got it. So anyway, as you
Speaker 1: were doing research for next year, and I made the
Speaker 1: case a lot of Lamar Jackson should maybe could or
Speaker 1: could maybe should go first overall, and you've pointed out
Speaker 1: that not only has Christian McCaffrey been better, he's been
Speaker 1: all time better. Yeah. So this year Christian McCaffrey, we
Speaker 1: know how great he has been. But just to put
Speaker 1: this into context, he is averaging the fifth most Fantasy
Speaker 1: points per game in PPR leagues of all time. That
Speaker 1: includes Marshall Falk in the year two thousand. He is
Speaker 1: the leader all time in PPR points per game Priest
Speaker 1: Holmes and O two LT in two thousand and six,
Speaker 1: Marshall Falk again in oh one, and this year Christian
Speaker 1: McCaffrey averaging twenty nine point seven to PPR points per game.
Speaker 1: It's just a ridiculous year. This is legitimately the fifth
Speaker 1: best fantasy season by a player in NFL history, not
Speaker 1: just quarterback, not just running back, not to wide receiver,
Speaker 1: of all players that have ever played the sport of football.
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey is fifth right now in PPR points per game,
Speaker 1: fifth all time. Ever you want like that's how amazing
Speaker 1: that Christian McCaffrey has been. I think it's like remarkable
Speaker 1: and in a year that's all been amount Lamar Jackson,
Speaker 1: I understand that he's the m v P. That's great.
Speaker 1: He's been a renaissance. He's top ten all time with
Speaker 1: his fantasy points per game this season, Christian McCaffrey has
Speaker 1: been even better. Now e y next year he'll be
Speaker 1: the number one overall pick, as he should be. No issue.
Speaker 1: Are you nervous but like the workload the last two
Speaker 1: or three years has just been so monstrous for CMC.
Speaker 1: With a new coach and a new regime there that
Speaker 1: could change at all. Yeah, I mean I am worried,
Speaker 1: and um, look at I was wrong on Christian McCaffrey.
Speaker 1: But the reason I was wrong is because I I
Speaker 1: thought he would be hurt because of the massive workload
Speaker 1: that hasn't happened. I never wish for injury and want
Speaker 1: these players to be healthy every week. I don't want
Speaker 1: anyone to get hurt, especially a player is exciting to
Speaker 1: watch a Chris McCaffrey. But I just thought, Look, he's
Speaker 1: in great shape. Uh. He runs hard, but he is
Speaker 1: not a big man. He is a smaller back uh,
Speaker 1: and never shies away from contact and is their entire
Speaker 1: running game and half of their passing game. He's touched
Speaker 1: the ball a ton this year, touched it a time
Speaker 1: last year. The injury bug is coming. It's not a
Speaker 1: matter of if it is when. Um, And I was
Speaker 1: early on on the whin I thought it would be
Speaker 1: this year and it wasn't. And Uh, he's putting up
Speaker 1: an all time history making season. And I can accept that.
Speaker 1: I can accept that. I was wrong. But uh, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think he will still be ranked first overall. Um,
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'll rank him that far. I
Speaker 1: don't think that far ahead because I have too much
Speaker 1: outs going on to think about that far ahead. But
Speaker 1: he probably will go first overall consensus. And uh, I
Speaker 1: believe this year. Next year it will be wrong. Alright,
Speaker 1: this is why we do these things. That that kind
Speaker 1: of statement is the reason why we do this. That
Speaker 1: will not deter me. What one bit. I mean, A
Speaker 1: guy is still twenty three years old, he's in the
Speaker 1: prime of his career. Of eighteen total touchdowns this year,
Speaker 1: ninety four receptions. It won't deter me. He's the number
Speaker 1: one pick, no doubt about it. Or Jackson is really good,
Speaker 1: very good running back in a quarterback combined for Fantasy
Speaker 1: pair one and two. Next year, we're back. You're the
Speaker 1: BFFs party. NFL season is now upon us, and you
Speaker 1: can become the eighth person away one million dollars in

Speaker 1: it's good. Good to be king boys and uh like
Speaker 1: it said, representing the fantasy BFFs, I'll be sending your
Speaker 1: pictures of my lineups looking for uh some advice. Uh,
Speaker 1: there's a couple of couple of pretty interesting calls this week.
Speaker 1: What do you got? What are these calls you're looking at?
Speaker 1: Let's let's start brain stormy. Now. You know it's only Wednesday,
Speaker 1: but I want to I want to start the process
Speaker 1: now because, as we've seen, Frank changes a lot, right, like,
Speaker 1: gives me opinion on Wednesday, I make a move by
Speaker 1: Friday's like, oh g did my rankings? Now? I feel
Speaker 1: a bit differently. So let's work shop this together here
Speaker 1: a little bit. Alright, alright, we can. We can work
Speaker 1: shop for sure. So, um, I don't really So I
Speaker 1: picked up Mike Evans thinking that he was gonna gonna
Speaker 1: do something and now he's on I R. So that's
Speaker 1: a that's a mistake. Alright, early we mistake. We can
Speaker 1: come back from that, No big deal sometime. James Conner.
Speaker 1: What are we thinking about James Conner? I know there's
Speaker 1: a lot of people. I'm seeing this all over Twitter, um,
Speaker 1: all over the places. What is James Conner going to
Speaker 1: do this week? So the good news is that James
Speaker 1: Conner came out of the Bills game healthy, right, Like
Speaker 1: there was no setback. He says that he's all right.
Speaker 1: The good news by the Steelers is that they're still
Speaker 1: fighting for a playoffs. This is not one team that's
Speaker 1: done by any means. They are still playing for something.
Speaker 1: When you're playing for something, well, obviously you want all
Speaker 1: of your horses there. James Conner, that or worse, is
Speaker 1: one of those horses with the Pittsburgh Steelers. And I
Speaker 1: understand he had what eight carries against Buffalo of fourteen
Speaker 1: running back carries last week, only fourteen, he had eight
Speaker 1: of them. That's not you want more than that, though,
Speaker 1: out of James Conner. Like normally, if I told you
Speaker 1: that Steelers running backs we're getting fourteen carries this week,
Speaker 1: you would say James Conner is getting twelve of them
Speaker 1: usually right like he would be the guy, he would
Speaker 1: be the workhorse. But yeah, Buffalo defenses is way better.
Speaker 1: Uh sorry Frank, but they're playing the Jets. Of the
Speaker 1: snap of the running back carries this past Sunday. I
Speaker 1: think it's a number now that he's back goes up
Speaker 1: to me. I don't know the other options you have
Speaker 1: are e y. I like James Conner this week he's
Speaker 1: going up against the Jets. Gregg, who Yes, while their
Speaker 1: defense overall has not been great this year, the one
Speaker 1: spot where they have been great you wouldn't notice by
Speaker 1: watching last week's Ravens game has been against the run,
Speaker 1: where they are allowing three point one six yards per
Speaker 1: carry two opposing running back this year. Steelers have a
Speaker 1: really good offensive line, Greg, I think James Conner is
Speaker 1: more of a flex play this week than the RB
Speaker 1: two he has been for most of the season. Well,
Speaker 1: that's where he'd be. It's flex. It's him Sanders, Uh,
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide, Tyra Williams, Robby Anderson, those are my choices
Speaker 1: at flex. Well, we're gonna use Miles Sanders's yeah, We're
Speaker 1: gonna use Sanders over James absolutely using Miles Sanders over
Speaker 1: James Conners. Howard's out, you know, yeah, well yeah, that's
Speaker 1: my only question is Miles Sanders is in and and
Speaker 1: uh I wrote him last week. Um, this is what
Speaker 1: I thought. I think me and you, Frank both kind
Speaker 1: of judged him around in between week four and six
Speaker 1: kind of having this uh, and Jordan Howard looked great,
Speaker 1: but then he got hurt, and Miles Sanders has taken
Speaker 1: over and has looked really good. Yeah, I mean he
Speaker 1: looked great last week. I mean the running back that
Speaker 1: we saw last week was the one that I had
Speaker 1: ranked the week before going into I don't remember who
Speaker 1: they played in Week four team, but it was two
Speaker 1: weeks ago that I had him, you know, as a
Speaker 1: top twelve running back. Was the game that he dealt
Speaker 1: with the cramps um and then this past week goes
Speaker 1: out there play of the snaps. The Eagles need all
Speaker 1: the help they can get on offense, so they're throwing
Speaker 1: him the ball. They're throwing Boston Scott the ball. The
Speaker 1: tight ends are involved, and he played of the snaps
Speaker 1: this past week a d seventy two total yards greg,
Speaker 1: six receptions, two touchdowns. I don't think that Jordan Howard
Speaker 1: is gonna be back. I saw an update earlier today
Speaker 1: on him that basically said he is status quo. I
Speaker 1: don't understand why the Eagles would go away from Miles
Speaker 1: Sanders based on the game that we just saw against Washington.
Speaker 1: He's going up against the Cowboys. They are okay in
Speaker 1: terms of yards per carry against running backs. They do
Speaker 1: a lot of the ninth most receptions, so I think
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders will still have that role. He is a
Speaker 1: legitimate RB two for me this week, Greg and e Y,
Speaker 1: I would use Miles Sanders ahead of James Conner. I agree,
Speaker 1: So listen, I agree with the Miles Sanders has come
Speaker 1: on as of late. I know Boston Scott stuck in
Speaker 1: there a little bit, but Miles Sanders has been more
Speaker 1: reliable than James Conner. And then even when Connor was healthy,
Speaker 1: you don't forget he's kind of underwhelming right like it was,
Speaker 1: it was frustrating story James Conner. Miles Sanders is the
Speaker 1: hot hand at this point. I totally agree with you
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders over James Conner here this week. Y. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's fair. That's fair. Now, what about what are we
Speaker 1: feeling about Terry McLaurin. Terry Terry against the New York Giants.
Speaker 1: It's a scary good matchup if you ask me, Ding
Speaker 1: crushed it, scary, Terry, No, any crush. It was bad.
Speaker 1: It was all right, all right? Yeah? That was That
Speaker 1: was in the Alex Pozzano Book of Jokes. Uh. Speaking
Speaker 1: of Alex Posano, I just have to give you a
Speaker 1: shout out, e Y. I know that your preads handled
Speaker 1: the New York Islanders last night. So I just had
Speaker 1: to give you a little shout out there. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: the most goal scorer of the Islanders this year. Uh,
Speaker 1: Islanders are unbelievable, Like great defensive structure, two really good goaltenders. Uh.
Speaker 1: Ex coach that coached here in Nashville is there? Um.
Speaker 1: Nobody watching the show probably cares about fantasy hockey or
Speaker 1: hockey in general. But I'm excited about it. Nothing about
Speaker 1: hockey at all except four. Alex Bazzano downstairs in the pit.
Speaker 1: We just heard him with the go aisles is a
Speaker 1: huge Islanders fan, and then he revealed to me today
Speaker 1: that your Predators won eight to three. So I thought
Speaker 1: that I would bring it up and give you a
Speaker 1: shout out of you. E. Why do you want to
Speaker 1: use this opportunity to your uh New Year's Eve bash? Yeah?
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve bash in Dallas, Texas. Everyone's welcome, uh
Speaker 1: Nashville fans and that Tallas Stars fans alike. Brain dead Brewery. Um,
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve. Obviously it's gonna be really cool, man.
Speaker 1: It's I'm excited about it. I mean there's there's no money,
Speaker 1: there's no nothing. It was just a place to have
Speaker 1: like minded, cool people to get together, have a couple
Speaker 1: of drinks, have some cool food food and have a
Speaker 1: good time. And that's how it started. And it's bloomed,
Speaker 1: and um, I worry for Sam the owner. Uh you know,
Speaker 1: he can hold about a hundred and sixty people. And
Speaker 1: I kind of feel I'm gonna crush that. It literally
Speaker 1: started as an idea just for away from me, about
Speaker 1: people I know to be together down there, um and
Speaker 1: not have to wear a cedo or I'll be some
Speaker 1: silly dance club. Um. And it's ballooned into this giant
Speaker 1: thing and uh, pretty much the entire Fox Sports UM
Speaker 1: broadcast crew is going to be there, co hosted by
Speaker 1: how Gill and Chris Mason, UM, two commentators, two X
Speaker 1: players too, super hilarious guys. Um. Yeah, it's gonna be awesome. Man,
Speaker 1: I can't wait. Yeah, if you're in the Dallas, Texas area,
Speaker 1: go hey, y all New Year's Eve, it's just you
Speaker 1: call them, You drink some beers, you eat some food,
Speaker 1: and you're in the New Year and get ready for

Speaker 1: but I do like e y and I kind of
Speaker 1: want to go to that. Good's gonna be good. I
Speaker 1: can't go. I will be I will be in Florida. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: we're canceling Florida. We're going down to Dallas, Texas. We're
Speaker 1: expensing it. You like that, Yes, yes, this is good.
Speaker 1: I got your attention to my attention. Terry McLarin greg scary.
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin indeed vases off against the New York Giants
Speaker 1: in a scary matchup. Still kill on it. Scary, scary,
Speaker 1: good exactly. McLaurin has found a connection here with Dwayne Askins,
Speaker 1: who has improved as the season's gone on. I've killed
Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins a lot, but this match is clearly really GOODY.
Speaker 1: Who's the other option that you have with Terry um?
Speaker 1: So right now, currently I have Miles Sanders on the bench,
Speaker 1: but that's because I've got um. But but I'm thinking
Speaker 1: about starting him and possibly over Nick Chubb. Um. Nick
Speaker 1: Chubb worries me against Baltimore. I feel like they're going
Speaker 1: to be down and have to throw I don't know, alright,
Speaker 1: this is this is what I was waiting for. One
Speaker 1: of these is going galaxy brain here on the BFF.
Speaker 1: It's good what we do this because he was a
Speaker 1: week ago where we already getting the text messages do
Speaker 1: I start Lamar Jackson or not? And we're like, what
Speaker 1: are we doing here? And that's kind of what we're doing.
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb leads the league in Russian. He leads the
Speaker 1: league in Russian. UI. He has the most rushing yards
Speaker 1: in the NFL is two hudred seventy carries and you
Speaker 1: wanta imagine from mad matching. No, this is not don't
Speaker 1: even think it's a bad match this. I was telling you, guys,
Speaker 1: I'm not. He's in my lineup right now. Sandra Sanders
Speaker 1: is on the bench, Nick Chubb is in. I'm telling
Speaker 1: you you asked me for the options. I'm telling you
Speaker 1: who I have. So you have Terry mclardinized your flex
Speaker 1: and you're deciding between him and Miles Sanders. I have
Speaker 1: him as my wide receiver to we as you guys
Speaker 1: know or if you and if you don't, I'm telling
Speaker 1: you we have two flexes in the pit league. I've
Speaker 1: got Davonte Parker and one and Kenyan Drake and one
Speaker 1: available is Miles Sanders, Kenny Golladay, Danny Almondola. I just
Speaker 1: don't like that. I don't even Nick chu was available
Speaker 1: in that, but like, can you drink yours? Nick Chubb?

Speaker 1: I have hold up you wise team here from the
Speaker 1: pet that's so taking a look at it, I think
Speaker 1: I'm going to put stacked by the way the sexy
Speaker 1: real questions. If Madison and Cook don't play, doesn't he
Speaker 1: have to start my boom? We can't take that risk
Speaker 1: as someone there now you can't and he doesn't even
Speaker 1: have to. I mean when you have Nick Chubb, mark Ingram,
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake, and Miles Sanders. I mean even if both
Speaker 1: of those guys were ruled out, I don't know that
Speaker 1: you would start Mike Boone over those players regardless, because
Speaker 1: obviously these are all players that have been performing well.
Speaker 1: They have solid matchups. Miles Sanders against the Cowboys we mentioned,
Speaker 1: you know the Cowboys allowed a lot of receptions to
Speaker 1: running backs. You can run on the Seahawks with Kenyan
Speaker 1: Drake coming off a monster game. Ingram has been great
Speaker 1: all year. Don't overthink the Nick Chubb thing. If anyone
Speaker 1: else is out there, the Ravens the way to beat
Speaker 1: that defense is actually by running the football, and Levian
Speaker 1: Bell just had a season high. He ran for over
Speaker 1: eight yards against the Ravens last week, So I'm not
Speaker 1: as worried about Nick Chubb. If they fall behind, maybe,
Speaker 1: but overall, I think early on in that game he'll
Speaker 1: be able to do enough. When I think you should
Speaker 1: do with this team here e y is, I would
Speaker 1: put Davonte Parker at wide receiver over Terry McLaurin, so
Speaker 1: you get Miles Sanders in your flex over Terry McLaurin
Speaker 1: as well. I don't know if that makes sense to you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's definitely. Uh. The problem right now
Speaker 1: is is not a bad problem to have, but I
Speaker 1: mean sure other people are dealing with this too. Is
Speaker 1: I have a lot of options, and because there's two flexes,
Speaker 1: there's all kinds of things that I can do, and
Speaker 1: I've got, you know, four or five players that are
Speaker 1: all around that same thing. So it's it is a
Speaker 1: dart frow an important one at that, but it's a
Speaker 1: good problem to have. It's not like I just have
Speaker 1: to start a lineup and hope I have choices. So
Speaker 1: I'll be I'll be I'll be diving deep into this
Speaker 1: as the week goes, no doubt about it. Were all,
Speaker 1: we were all we will all be diving deep as
Speaker 1: the week goes. And let me start this week looking
Speaker 1: at the Dallas Cowboys where Dak Prescott had a shoulder injury.
Speaker 1: He injured it on like the six play of the game.
Speaker 1: He ran to the right, landing on his shoulder. It
Speaker 1: was fun, right, obviously, threw all game in a good game,
Speaker 1: but didn't he even move his right shoulder. During practice
Speaker 1: today they were doing jumping Jack's. He was doing one
Speaker 1: arm jumping in Jack's as you told me during the break,
Speaker 1: Frank Jason garrats like, yeah, he's have a little trouble
Speaker 1: throwing the ball right now. Now, he's the biggest game
Speaker 1: of the season for Dallas's a playoff game for them.
Speaker 1: He's going to play, yes, but your fantasy owners play him.
Speaker 1: I think that as long as the Cowboys are throwing
Speaker 1: him out there in a game this important, obviously, I mean,
Speaker 1: this is their season. Whoever wins this game between the
Speaker 1: Eagles and Cowboys will win the the NFC East Division.
Speaker 1: I am worried about the injury, but I think that
Speaker 1: as long as he plays great, you have to use
Speaker 1: him in fantasy. We just saw what Dwayne Haskins did
Speaker 1: against this Eagles secondary the past couple of weeks. I
Speaker 1: remember Ryan Fitzpatrick a couple of weeks ago against his
Speaker 1: Eagle secondary had a monster game as well. They've struggled
Speaker 1: all year long, specifically with outside wide receivers. That's where
Speaker 1: the Cowboys thrive with a Marii cooper um. So I
Speaker 1: think if he's good enough to go, I am going
Speaker 1: to fire up Dak Prescott as my starting quarterback because
Speaker 1: this matchup is one of, if not the best, you
Speaker 1: can have for a quarterback. Yeah, the matches, he's brilliant.
Speaker 1: We talked. I took Jim Sanas and Fan will hurry
Speaker 1: up today and he's like, yeah, Michael Gallup and Laurie
Speaker 1: Coover like, when you have facing that Eagle secondary, you
Speaker 1: want to stack him in DFS because Dallas has ability
Speaker 1: to go off and we've seen teams do it over
Speaker 1: the past couple of weeks against Philadelphia. Eli Manning did
Speaker 1: it against Philadelphia. Dak's playing, which he will. I think
Speaker 1: you go all in here with Dak Prescott. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna argue with that. Seen this tweet from Calvin Watkins,
Speaker 1: who is uh the beat reporter for Dallas News Dallas News,
Speaker 1: he said Dak Prescott had an m r I on
Speaker 1: his right shoulder, and Jason Garrett said it's hard for
Speaker 1: him to function right now. So this is something we'll
Speaker 1: have to ask Virginia zakas of Inside Injuries about tomorrow
Speaker 1: because not only does it have huge implications from a
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective for Dak Prescott, a lot of people are
Speaker 1: relying on Dak, but a lot of people are also
Speaker 1: relying on a Mari Cooper and Michael Gallup, and you know,
Speaker 1: if he's not a d percent or if there's a
Speaker 1: chance that he can seriously injure himself in this game,
Speaker 1: you might have to look in another direction. So we'll
Speaker 1: find out tomorrow. Yeah, we will obviously find out tomorrow,
Speaker 1: um when it comes more out of practice when it
Speaker 1: comes to Dak Prescott. Now, the other big news ey
Speaker 1: that I've been seeing was a guy that I a
Speaker 1: friend of mine named Blake leely ranked Julian Edelman as
Speaker 1: his thirty fourth rights wide receiver this week. If you
Speaker 1: do receiver rangs yet, jeffyks Julian Edeman barely on the
Speaker 1: wide receiver three cusps. This is a guy that the
Speaker 1: wide receiver one has been all season long. Obviously he's hurt,
Speaker 1: Obviously the magic isn't great against Buffalo. But if you're
Speaker 1: a Julian Edelman owner, is he a must start for
Speaker 1: you this week? E wy Um, this is a problem
Speaker 1: I'm dealing with in in a in a home league
Speaker 1: that I'm in. Um, I have him. He has been
Speaker 1: questionable I think every week this week, so I mean
Speaker 1: he's gonna play. Um, but was was poor? Was uh?
Speaker 1: And I know this will excite Frank he was rotten
Speaker 1: last week. Um, And I've got him in right now.
Speaker 1: But I might have to start Anthony Miller over him.
Speaker 1: And that's that's crazy to say, But I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know if I can trust him, especially against the
Speaker 1: Bills defense. Yeah. I don't think that's crazy right now either.
Speaker 1: The way that Anthony Miller is playing, the target share
Speaker 1: that he has seen recently, it's basically been a one
Speaker 1: A and one B between him and Alan Robinson. The
Speaker 1: chief secondary has been really good, but where they actually
Speaker 1: can be attacked is in the slot. Over the past
Speaker 1: eight weeks, they're allowing the their seventeen in PPR points
Speaker 1: allowed to slot receivers, so um, they're much better against
Speaker 1: outside receivers. I think that Anthony Miller could take advantage
Speaker 1: in this matchup. I think that that is a legitimate question.
Speaker 1: You know, let's see how the rest of the week goes.
Speaker 1: But let's not downplay. I mean, this is a huge
Speaker 1: game for the New England Patriots for the Bills divisional matchup.
Speaker 1: You know, if the Patriots lose this game in the
Speaker 1: Chiefs went out, the Chiefs are looking at getting the
Speaker 1: by heading into the playoffs and the Patriots will not. Right,
Speaker 1: you know, the Patriots want that by I mean both Look, yes,
Speaker 1: everyone wants to buy obviously, but I think that the
Speaker 1: Patriots they know that they kind of need it. They
Speaker 1: need that week of recovery older players on their team,
Speaker 1: obviously Tom Brady. The offense hasn't looked great. They need
Speaker 1: that buy. This is a big game for them. And
Speaker 1: if Julian Edelman is out there, I have a hard
Speaker 1: time believing they're not going to use him. Last week
Speaker 1: they didn't need him because they were up bigat against
Speaker 1: the Bengals. Is that gonna happen against the Bills. I
Speaker 1: don't know that they're gonna be able to build a
Speaker 1: lead like that without Julian Edelman's help, So I get
Speaker 1: it right, Like Edelman's double covered on every play, Like
Speaker 1: I I understand that because he is. Before last week
Speaker 1: he had double digit targets in a trade games, Greg,
Speaker 1: that's insane. I don't know how you've been shooting Edelman
Speaker 1: this week. I don't know how you do it. But
Speaker 1: isn't Anthony Miller in that discussion though? And absolutely yeah,
Speaker 1: having him having Julian Edelman ranks low and wide reciver three,
Speaker 1: I mean that is very aggressive on the opposite end
Speaker 1: of the spectrum. Obviously. It's like because a guy like
Speaker 1: Edony Miller maybe ahead of him on that list, you
Speaker 1: could be I don't know what to do. So like
Speaker 1: my other ops, So a guy like ro Sharp Harriman, right,
Speaker 1: like you're big pick up this week for the Bucks?
Speaker 1: Is that someone you're gonna store with Julian edom in
Speaker 1: your championship? It's crazy? But how can you not That's
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. But how can you not? Though?
Speaker 1: Seriously right, how can you not? Pretty easily? The Bills
Speaker 1: secondary is great and look I know that I just
Speaker 1: spoke up Julian Edelman. That's because I wouldn't. I haven't
Speaker 1: done my rankings yet, but I am not going to
Speaker 1: rank him that low. He's not gonna be a low
Speaker 1: and wide receiver three for me. He might be on
Speaker 1: that cusp of like a low end wide rechiever two,
Speaker 1: high and wide receiver three, which would certainly be lower
Speaker 1: than where he's been for most of the season. But
Speaker 1: I think Perriman is going to be right in that
Speaker 1: area as well as a low end wide receiver to
Speaker 1: who also they're gonna throw the ball to. I mean,
Speaker 1: they're going up against the Texans. That secondary has been inconsistent.
Speaker 1: They played better against wide receivers recently, Greg, but they
Speaker 1: can still be beat. A. J. Brown has had a
Speaker 1: monster game against the Houston Text and they the Tampa
Speaker 1: Bay Bucks throw the ball down the field. Nobody throws
Speaker 1: the ball down the field more. Actually looked this up
Speaker 1: last night deep passing. No one has a higher deep
Speaker 1: throw percentage than Jamis Winston this year. That is where
Speaker 1: Brashod Perryman thrives. I would start Brashod Perryman over Julian Edelman.
Speaker 1: It's crazy, But Week sixteen, Greg strip the name off
Speaker 1: the back of the jersey. I get it, I get it,
Speaker 1: but it's not like other than the last week has
Speaker 1: been bad. No, he hasn't. But what if all the
Speaker 1: injuries are finally catching up to him. He's dealing with
Speaker 1: a shoulder, he's dealing with a leg injury, He's dealing
Speaker 1: with a lot. He's not a spring chicken man. He's
Speaker 1: thirty three years old. He might I mean, look, he's
Speaker 1: tough as nails. He might be playing through some serious stuff.
Speaker 1: He was a legit, you know, game time decision last week,
Speaker 1: tough matchup against Buffalo. I mean, there are a lot
Speaker 1: of reasons to be worried about Edaman this week. Just
Speaker 1: do you have one of those options? Perryman is is
Speaker 1: a low and wide receiver to this week he is.
Speaker 1: There's there's no doubt about it. The only other options,
Speaker 1: like I personally have, I don't have Priman is Matduel.
Speaker 1: Sanders is not something I started terrible last week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was going the only the only thing that you
Speaker 1: could say about Manuel Sanders is at least he's not
Speaker 1: gonna see Jalen Ramsey. Theoretically, Devo will Debo probably will
Speaker 1: because Devo plays more on the outside Emmanuel Sanders plays
Speaker 1: in the slot, and the Rams like the Chiefs. The
Speaker 1: Rams have been good against wide receivers, but they are
Speaker 1: susceptible against slot receivers. Greg, So that that's a legitimate
Speaker 1: question for you as well, Sorry, Bud, Who are your
Speaker 1: other options? So, like if you put Sanders in as
Speaker 1: your wide receiver would be another flex option for you
Speaker 1: over Edelman. Oh I don't like that, Grin Oh Scarborough, sure,
Speaker 1: I didn't know which way this was going talk about
Speaker 1: an intern Petrick Domina, Oh, well, actually that might make
Speaker 1: sense against the Bengals. You've got some decisions. We've all
Speaker 1: got decisions here, Greg, Championship we man it kills you
Speaker 1: Edelman getting hurt at the wrong We never like after
Speaker 1: the show yesterday, like we spent so much time talking
Speaker 1: about like defenses, We don't do that normally, Like we're
Speaker 1: going over all these different defenses this morning we came in,
Speaker 1: we're looking at defense rankings like you get hardcore, not
Speaker 1: that we're not always already over like you really dive
Speaker 1: in every little advantage. Championship I mean, in Championship Week
Speaker 1: gets down to the nitty gritty, and yeah, we're splitting
Speaker 1: hairs you're trying to find every single edge you possibly can.
Speaker 1: Yesterday we spoke about picking up players to block your opponent.
Speaker 1: I mean, these are legitimate strategies here, so I don't
Speaker 1: think it's crazy. Man. You really do have to nitpick.
Speaker 1: I mean, look into your kicker research this week, find
Speaker 1: out who's playing indoors where there's win this week. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know who allows the most fantasy points to opposing kickers.
Speaker 1: I mean that's how deep we're going this week. Absolutely defense. Alright,
Speaker 1: so we'll come back. We have more news and notes.
Speaker 1: I want to make sure that we get to uh,
Speaker 1: including Evan Ingram being out for the year from the Giants.
Speaker 1: I think it's worth mentioning. I'll talk about that, my guess, basically,
Speaker 1: not all year anyway, that's not nice. It's a fact.
Speaker 1: NFL season is now upon us, and you can become
Speaker 1: the eighth person away one million dollars in a Fandueler
Speaker 1: Draft Kings tournament. My setting their lineups using the Daily

Speaker 1: think your husband out of the year. Yeah, when was
Speaker 1: the last time you played? Nine? Oh? Yeah, it's only
Speaker 1: the second half? What week? Is a great Week six? Team? Right? Alright?
Speaker 1: The second half of the year? Thank you? Second half?
Speaker 1: Do we deal first half? You is there? This guy
Speaker 1: has not played since week That's right what I said,
Speaker 1: he missed weeks six. I was gonna tell you that far.
Speaker 1: He has played eight games this year, so that to
Speaker 1: half a season. Half a season? Yeah, you're excited about that?
Speaker 1: Is he good for the first half of the season?
Speaker 1: Pretty good? All right? So yeah, I'm pretty excited about it.
Speaker 1: Score touchdowns in three out of eight games. If you
Speaker 1: would have parent Evan Ingram with Tyler Higban is pretty good? Well,
Speaker 1: I don't think Tyler Higby was doing anything and we
Speaker 1: ted Greg Wells very good in the past three weeks.
Speaker 1: You could have paired him up with like Doyle for
Speaker 1: a little bit. Then Tyler Higby, you're good? Then all right?
Speaker 1: What do you want to say about Evan Ingram. So,
Speaker 1: I don't know what I want to say. It's it's
Speaker 1: what I want to figure out because like next year,
Speaker 1: we talked a little bit yesterday about George Kittle and
Speaker 1: Zach ertz Um and Travis Kelsey like being once again
Speaker 1: the top three performing at the top three level being
Speaker 1: the top three next year. We discussed second or third
Speaker 1: round and whatnot, and he Sy'll both go in the
Speaker 1: first two rounds. All three of them will go in
Speaker 1: the first three two rounds. You think so, I think not.
Speaker 1: I think one them will go and might go in
Speaker 1: the third if they don't, because the they need wide receiver.
Speaker 1: You were talking yesterday about how more Andrews is gonna
Speaker 1: wind up being in that like like Hunter Henry's here
Speaker 1: from this year, right that that that middle round, he's
Speaker 1: gonna like a fourth, fourth through sixth, fourth or fifth
Speaker 1: probably right, Darren Waller will be there as well, right, so, um,
Speaker 1: you have this mix Hunter Henry, they'll be back in.
Speaker 1: So the question that I have, that was the question
Speaker 1: for answered. I mean, no, he won't. Where does given
Speaker 1: Evan Ingram has had major injury issues now throughout his career,
Speaker 1: where does Evan Ingram fall for you, EU, I just
Speaker 1: eight games this season. He's ended up leave every season injured.
Speaker 1: What do you make of Evan Ingram next year? Are
Speaker 1: Is he gonna be somebody that you're on. No, I
Speaker 1: don't think so. I think if he falls farther enough,
Speaker 1: I mean it's just like the tight ends from this year.
Speaker 1: I think it'll be very similar to last year. They'll
Speaker 1: be that top, like four to five guys. I think
Speaker 1: he falls out of that number. I think we can
Speaker 1: all give up on O. J. Howard. That's over with
Speaker 1: And for people that if it's not over with, then
Speaker 1: then I want to play in a league with you
Speaker 1: and I want you to draft him in high just
Speaker 1: like he was this year. Complete waste of time. Uh,
Speaker 1: complete wasted draft capital. And Ingram will be, uh you
Speaker 1: know for me outside of you know, fourth and fifth round,
Speaker 1: he'll be that kind of like middle tier that where
Speaker 1: there's you know, ten or twelve other guys that are
Speaker 1: all basically the same. I mean, he's proven that he
Speaker 1: can't stay healthy. Um, offensively, this isn't going to be
Speaker 1: a powerhouse. Um. I think Daniel Jones another year in
Speaker 1: the system, Barkley coming back healthy, will help improve that,
Speaker 1: but Sterling Shepherd has got to stay healthy. They've got
Speaker 1: to find more help at the wide receiver position. Um
Speaker 1: Slayton could be the other option there. I guess Um
Speaker 1: Golden Tate has to remain healthy. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: questions on the on the Giants team, and Ingram might
Speaker 1: be the number one question. Greg. I've got the complete
Speaker 1: tight end breakdown for next year right now, ready to go?
Speaker 1: Are you here? We go? Here you go? It is
Speaker 1: December eighteen. I will give you the tight end breakdown
Speaker 1: right now. Kelsey Earth's and George Kittle will all go
Speaker 1: the first three rounds somewhere in tho first round rounds.
Speaker 1: Of course, fourth and fifth round those middle rounds you
Speaker 1: will see Darren Waller, Mark Andrews, and Austin Hooper all
Speaker 1: go in those fourth and fifth rounds. I do think
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper will be in that mix right after those guys,
Speaker 1: and much like he did this year, you will get
Speaker 1: Jared Cook and that's six seventh round range, assuming that
Speaker 1: Drew Brees is the quarterback. I believe that Evan Ingram
Speaker 1: will be in that mix the six seventh round kind
Speaker 1: of range with Jared Cook and then you're sleeper tight end.
Speaker 1: You're sleepers, you're sleeper tight ends. Next year, the guys
Speaker 1: that we will be drafting late that will be this
Speaker 1: year's Darren Waller, this year's next year's Darren Waller and
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews will be Mike Asecki and Dawson Knox. You
Speaker 1: heard it here first your first Dawson Knox and come
Speaker 1: one okay, and maybe Dallas Goddard to they had another one?
Speaker 1: Can they had another one? Maybe I'm got do it.
Speaker 1: Tyler Harry be sure. He he's actually gonna go way
Speaker 1: ahead of these guys. When Delaney Walker retires, Johnny Smith
Speaker 1: will be in there too. He should be, he should be,
Speaker 1: You're right, but he's gonna end up. You know what's
Speaker 1: gonna happen. He's gonna end up getting too much hype.
Speaker 1: Like if Delaney Walker's gone, John U Smith will go
Speaker 1: right behind that Evan and Gram and Jared Cook crew.
Speaker 1: He'll he'll be like a top ten, top twelve tight
Speaker 1: end drafted him and Tyler Higbee will be in that
Speaker 1: same area, a low end tight end one being drafted
Speaker 1: for next year. But the Sleepers who will have breakout
Speaker 1: upside and no a fan No. A Fan will be
Speaker 1: in this group as well. It will be No A Fan, Mikeasecki,
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox. Those will be the late round tight ends
Speaker 1: for next year that are going to be the upside picks.
Speaker 1: You heard it here first BFS December eighteen. There's all
Speaker 1: we do, Greg we a stuff, lock it in, lock
Speaker 1: it in. I'm ready to draft right now for next year.
Speaker 1: You ready, let's go. No right, he's doing a baseball
Speaker 1: draft to Why can you scold him? Um, any time
Speaker 1: anyone does anything base ball, I'm allowed to scold them. Why.
Speaker 1: I'll send you a screenshot on my team and you
Speaker 1: will let me know who you would draft next pick. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll give you. I'll give you a draft grade real quick.
Speaker 1: Got Joe Carter on that team? Not yet, Roberto Roberto Alibar.
Speaker 1: I'm waiting on those guys. They're sleepers. Jimmy Keat he
Speaker 1: just tried. Mr Williams. How do you feel they're in
Speaker 1: the Celebrity Softball League Fantasy League? Interesting? Yeah, go away, baseball,
Speaker 1: go away? Come on? How can we go away? Garrett
Speaker 1: Cold just you know he had his press conference today.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you were all over that big news. Oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I woke up early, made sure not to miss it.
Speaker 1: So this weekend, t Y Hilton also, as we said
Speaker 1: with Um forget who we talked about came out of
Speaker 1: last year. We talked about James Conner. Why Hilton came
Speaker 1: out of last week? Also not heard. He was obviously
Speaker 1: limited on Monday night against the Saints, didn't play his
Speaker 1: normal complon Little Snaps. You gotta figure that one out,
Speaker 1: Frankie and Frank Reix's a even though we're out of it,
Speaker 1: he as a player. He's going to play this weekend.
Speaker 1: Are you confident to why Hilton comes back being t
Speaker 1: Y Hilton Frankie, Yeah, I mean, look, he didn't do
Speaker 1: much this week. I think it's more concern over Jacoby Brissette.
Speaker 1: The way that Jacoby Brissett and this Colt offense is
Speaker 1: playing right now. It's not necessarily on t Y Hilton.
Speaker 1: T Y played just fifty two of the Snaps, and
Speaker 1: of course last week Frank Reich said, well, we're not
Speaker 1: gonna throw t Y Hilton out there until he's completely
Speaker 1: healthy and ready to play his full compliment of Snaps. Well,
Speaker 1: Frank Reich, why did he only play of the Snaps? Then?
Speaker 1: Maybe because they were getting blown out. But regardless, it
Speaker 1: is a good matchup against Carolina, greg I would put
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton in the wide receiver three category. You know, normally,
Speaker 1: if he's healthy, he's good to go. In a solid
Speaker 1: matchup like this against Carolina, he would be a high
Speaker 1: end wide receiver two. I think because of question marks
Speaker 1: about his health and the fact that this offense has
Speaker 1: played very poorly, specifically Jacoby Brissette, I think that downgrades
Speaker 1: t Why Hilton to a lower end wide receiver three.
Speaker 1: Where does Adams and fall for you? This is a
Speaker 1: similar conversation. We had Adam Feeland last week and you
Speaker 1: were relatively low on him in general, Frank, and you
Speaker 1: were right about that, and he didn't reduce normal Adam
Speaker 1: feeling levels that he didn't see the amount of targets
Speaker 1: that were us super feeling he was limited, and you
Speaker 1: had it as a wider's either three? What you do
Speaker 1: it again? I am gonna have him as a in
Speaker 1: a similar spot to where I had him last week.
Speaker 1: Low end wide receiver to high end wide receiver three.
Speaker 1: The problem is you can run on Green Bay, So
Speaker 1: I don't know how much Minnesota is gonna have to
Speaker 1: throw in this game, we could see some back and forth. Obviously,
Speaker 1: divisional matchup Monday Night Football a huge game for both
Speaker 1: of these teams. I do like the fact that the
Speaker 1: Packers have struggled out of the slot recently. We just
Speaker 1: saw Anthony Miller have a monster game against them, a
Speaker 1: hundred and eighteen yards and a touchdown in the slot
Speaker 1: against this team, So you can't take advantage an advantage
Speaker 1: of them there. The problem is I don't know how
Speaker 1: much the Packers will have to throw. I think that
Speaker 1: whoever the running back is, Dalvin Cook Mike Boone will
Speaker 1: see a good workload and be able to have success.
Speaker 1: Because of that, I will likely rank him similar to
Speaker 1: where I did last week lowand wide receiver too high
Speaker 1: and wide receiver three. So do you have hired Adam
Speaker 1: Feeling or whim? I would use Adam Feeling over to
Speaker 1: better offense. For sure, Kirk Cousins is balling out this year,
Speaker 1: and again that match up in the slot against Green
Speaker 1: Bay I think is an advantageous one for Adam Feeling. Okay,
Speaker 1: there you go. Adam Feeling Over at t Y Hilton
Speaker 1: here this week. According to Frankie, let me continue on.
Speaker 1: Frank with some other notes for this weekend, and that
Speaker 1: brings me to Odell Beckham Jr. And I got a
Speaker 1: question I can throw out to you. E Y, We're
Speaker 1: going to Odell's personal crap, Odell Beckham. We're Tyler Boyd
Speaker 1: this week. E way. Man, it is so hard to
Speaker 1: trust Odell Beckham. I feel like every week, you know,
Speaker 1: someone was saying, or we were saying, this is the week,
Speaker 1: this is the week. Keep trusting him, keep putting him
Speaker 1: in your starting lineup. He's been rotten, he's been, he's been,
Speaker 1: he's been rotten. Um By. I mean it's they're going
Speaker 1: to have to throw I mean, I mean that's all
Speaker 1: I can say. They're going to be behind um But
Speaker 1: but yeah, I wouldn't trust him this week. I think
Speaker 1: I would probably play Boyd, which is insane to say.
Speaker 1: It's not insane, you're actually spot on. I would use
Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd over Odell Beckham. I don't think that it's close.
Speaker 1: I like this matchup going up against the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 1: They've been torched by wide receivers all season long. I
Speaker 1: think Joe Mixon has a good game here as well.
Speaker 1: The targets have been relatively consistent for Tyler Boyd since
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton has taken over, hasn't had less than six
Speaker 1: targets in a game with Andy Dalton. Um, I'm not
Speaker 1: depending on Odell Beckham in my championship week again. He
Speaker 1: is in a similar territory as c Y Hilton, lower
Speaker 1: end wide receiver three. The talent is there, but he's
Speaker 1: just not right. He's playing with the sports herney, a
Speaker 1: groin injury or whatever it might be, and it's a
Speaker 1: tougher match up against the Baltimore Ravens. I'm not fooling around, Greg.
Speaker 1: I'm using Tyler Boyd over Odell Beckham. Where So you
Speaker 1: said that Ode would use feeling over him as well?
Speaker 1: What a Julian Edelman man? I would use Julian Edelman
Speaker 1: over him as well. But I think Edelman is in
Speaker 1: this in this range. I think he's a wide receiver
Speaker 1: three this week. He he'll just you said a wide
Speaker 1: receiver three was too was too late. You'd have him
Speaker 1: as a high endwivers a high low and wire re
Speaker 1: SIPER two. What you told it? Yeah, on that fringe
Speaker 1: low and wide SIER two hind wide receiver three in
Speaker 1: your head, that's what it feels like it's just I
Speaker 1: did kind of talk myself out of it before. Look,
Speaker 1: you just think about all the injuries right that Edelman
Speaker 1: is head and Baltimore. I mean, the Buffalo Bills have
Speaker 1: a great secondary, so you have to take all these
Speaker 1: things into account. But when it's all said and done,
Speaker 1: if they're in a competitive game, which I expect this
Speaker 1: to be the Patriots and the Bills, I expect it
Speaker 1: to be a competitive game. It's easier to run against
Speaker 1: the Bills and it is to throw. But at some
Speaker 1: point I think that the Patriots are gonna have to
Speaker 1: make plays in this game, and Tom Brady will rely
Speaker 1: on Julian Edelman. There's nobody else he can rely on
Speaker 1: in the passing attack outside of maybe James White in
Speaker 1: this offense right now. So I think that as long
Speaker 1: as Edelman is healthy enough to suit up and playing
Speaker 1: this game, he likely sees around eight targets and whatever
Speaker 1: he does with that will remain to be seen. But
Speaker 1: I do think that solid volume will still be there
Speaker 1: for Edelman this week in a competitive game. Okay, so
Speaker 1: Julie will take him over Odell Beckham and deal not
Speaker 1: over Adam Field. You're backing not necessarily. I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't really like any of these guys. I'll take Tyler
Speaker 1: Boyd overall of him. Eric, do you think that Odell
Speaker 1: Becka will be in Cleveland next year? UM? My guess
Speaker 1: is is no. I mean, for all the stuff that
Speaker 1: we're hearing. Um, I mean, I guess there's no no
Speaker 1: way to know for sure. Um, you know, they could
Speaker 1: patch things up. I mean, I don't think he's going
Speaker 1: to be a very easier easy player to get rid
Speaker 1: of contract wise. But uh, I don't know. Man, these guys.
Speaker 1: White receivers are a mess. They're just a mess. It's
Speaker 1: you know, it's one headache after another. He was a
Speaker 1: problem in New York, even even though he's one of
Speaker 1: the best receivers in the game at the time. Um.
Speaker 1: But I think he's proven year that he's not that anymore. Um.
Speaker 1: And and it is a big ticket and just he's
Speaker 1: a headache. I mean, and and that messes with the
Speaker 1: chemistry of a team, messes with the morale of a team.
Speaker 1: And and I think, I mean, part of to blame
Speaker 1: for him this year is is Cleveland's downfall. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is it's part of that. I mean, that's it's
Speaker 1: it's the ultimate team sport, and having a guy like
Speaker 1: that on the roster can affect everybody around him. Fredky
Speaker 1: better chance of Odell Becka is back in Cleveland and
Speaker 1: Freddy Kitchens. There is a better chance that Freddie Kitchens
Speaker 1: is back in Cleveland. Not not that I think that
Speaker 1: it's warranted. I just think that they might be that
Speaker 1: dumb and bring back Freddy Kitchens. I'm with e Y.
Speaker 1: I think Odell Beckham probably is on the move somewhere.
Speaker 1: I know there was a report earlier today that he
