Speaker 1: Here in the Fantasy Sports alongside Frankie Standfell, I am
Speaker 1: Greg sauce Man. Frank, what's going on my day? Well, Greg,
Speaker 1: there's one thing that's specifically going on right now inside
Speaker 1: of this studio. Maybe we need to have a talk
Speaker 1: with Corey Parson, Gabe Morncy, Uh, maybe Michelle Serpico. I
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it smells kind of weird in here.
Speaker 1: It smells bad. It smells kind of weird, smells bad.
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. Was there something that
Speaker 1: I missed during Cartner Friends? I don't know. I was.
Speaker 1: I was in meeting. Yeah, well I was. I was
Speaker 1: editing or had my headphones on at least so I
Speaker 1: was editing for a portion of the time. The rest
Speaker 1: of the time, you know, get ready for the show,
Speaker 1: Greg Frankie did it? Agan? Oh? How good did it
Speaker 1: feel to get that that monkey off your back? It
Speaker 1: feels weird? Man feels weird. Well, I've told you many times. Ready,
Speaker 1: I've dropped him my home league, Waiver ran and no
Speaker 1: one picked him up. Can tell you my bench just
Speaker 1: for a moment. It's hilarious. Davante Adams. I wanna buy okay,
Speaker 1: Jon wa Allison injured, and I wanta buy h Cooper
Speaker 1: Cup injured. Fine, Wayne Goldman handcuffed to s Juan Gross okay,
Speaker 1: Broadway Baker, Baker, did your starting quarterback and your luck?
Speaker 1: Should you start me field this week? As Tampa? Interesting? Um?
Speaker 1: I have look ranked Hi, it looks been too good.
Speaker 1: I can't ben Jim He's really amazing. Um. Josh Reynolds
Speaker 1: and the Rat, the Rat. I got vote Reynolds in
Speaker 1: my storyline of this week, by the way, Jermaine Curse
Speaker 1: and Kenyan Jerrake, did you say you have Reynolds in
Speaker 1: your lamp. Have Jermaine Curson Kane drinking? I agree with those.
Speaker 1: I agree with both of those. Um, Josh Reynolds actually
Speaker 1: dealing with a hand injury right now. Yeah, he's fine. Deal,
Speaker 1: so he's going that bothers me though, right like very sneaky, sneaky.
Speaker 1: Here's the bothers man. I don't want to do about it. Um,
Speaker 1: Calvin really played him in the Night Football. I don't
Speaker 1: know what to do between what if he doesn't play.
Speaker 1: He's in your lineup right now, m m, so I
Speaker 1: want to start him if you play, especially against the Giants,
Speaker 1: and if he doesn't play, I the only person I
Speaker 1: can play as Wayne Gollman on Monday Night. Who I have?
Speaker 1: What I can't do? Um? I have Josh Reynolds plays
Speaker 1: at four and the rack that plays at one. So
Speaker 1: what you can do is either you'll play Josh Reynolds
Speaker 1: just over Calvin Ridley straight up, or you'll have to
Speaker 1: burn one of those benchbots to pick up like Justin Hardy.
Speaker 1: In case Calvin Realley doesn't play, I probably had the
Speaker 1: I'm wait till Sunday morning and do that, and I'll
Speaker 1: have to just drop somebody seriously, what does that smell?
Speaker 1: I don't do I don't know. It smells god awful.
Speaker 1: And you think if we turned the air on it
Speaker 1: would like circulate things and like maybe like blow it out.
Speaker 1: We opened open the door, door, but over the doors
Speaker 1: to that. Let's focus on a Frankie here. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna open the door. Focus on me. Well,
Speaker 1: you keep it on that camera anyway, because then you're
Speaker 1: gonna walk through that can get up and go open
Speaker 1: the door. I wanted to focus on you. Thank you hey. Alright,
Speaker 1: So while Greg is doing that, that's a little, uh,
Speaker 1: little mentioned little reminder that we have a Thursday night
Speaker 1: football game tonight, a very to be honest, the very
Speaker 1: gross one like tonight's football game is the same as
Speaker 1: like the way the studio smells right now. So I'll
Speaker 1: just throw that out there. If the Broncos going up
Speaker 1: against the Cardinals, with the Bronco is currently one point
Speaker 1: favorites um with a game total of forty two and
Speaker 1: a half, which as of now is the lowest game
Speaker 1: total on the slate. Confirming that we have oh no,
Speaker 1: it's moved up. So the Dallas Cowboys in the Redskins
Speaker 1: is now the lowest game total on the slate at
Speaker 1: forty two points. Greg Susman, what game is Grocer the
Speaker 1: Cowboys versus Washington or the Cardinals versus the Broncos tonight
Speaker 1: NFC West Clash. No, it's not. That's the West Clash.
Speaker 1: Broncos aren't in the NFC. Do you have anything? Yeah,
Speaker 1: this game is to be terrible, really bad. The only
Speaker 1: UM person or position I'm starting tonight, by the way,
Speaker 1: they don't own the Broncos anywhere. Actually no, I own
Speaker 1: Roy Sperman somewhere, but not playing him um, which is
Speaker 1: a shame because you'd want to play him on the
Speaker 1: base on the matchup, but I understand why you can't.
Speaker 1: I'm starting tonight the Arizona Cardinals defense. Blodzka, you have
Speaker 1: the Cardinals defense as well. I think both defenses are
Speaker 1: in play tonight totally. That the way the way that
Speaker 1: Rosen and case Keenum. Rosen has been all right, He's
Speaker 1: taken care of the football, case Keenum not as much.
Speaker 1: But there's actually injuries on both sides of the football here,
Speaker 1: especially to the offensive line. The Cardinals will be without
Speaker 1: Mike eu Potty uh and the Broncos are without Edwin
Speaker 1: vel Deer and Ronald Leary. So opponent is David Johnson tonight.
Speaker 1: We could see some sloppy play at the both sides
Speaker 1: with injuries to the offensive line. Also, Trey Boston safety
Speaker 1: out for the Arizona Cardinals. So I wouldn't be surprised. Honestly, Greg,
Speaker 1: this is like a just a bold call. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: be surprised if we see a defensive touchdown on both
Speaker 1: sides of the football tonight. I think both defenses are
Speaker 1: in play. The Cardinals master proposed me a trade just
Speaker 1: now does involve fab No all right, but player for
Speaker 1: tonight was bringing up all bring it up. He's proposing me.
Speaker 1: I have owned Christian Kirk. He's asked for Christian Kirk
Speaker 1: for Derrick Henry. Oh gosh, what's your record? We are
Speaker 1: both one and five, So I'm seeing the Philip Lindsay
Speaker 1: addition to Max's team did not help him out much.
Speaker 1: Doesn't seem that way. I mean, it's it's whatever. It's
Speaker 1: like crap for a crap At this point, I will
Speaker 1: go as far as to say Christian Kirk has more
Speaker 1: upside then Derrick Henry. It's just the Titans offense is gross.
Speaker 1: Right now, Marcus Mariota and their entire offen has had
Speaker 1: one good game this year, and that came against the
Speaker 1: Eagles where everyone was super excited about Corey Davis. You know,
Speaker 1: I was looking around consensus rankings yesterday, right, people still
Speaker 1: have Corey Davis inside their top twenty four this week.
Speaker 1: I'm like, based on what, why are we ranking Corey
Speaker 1: Davis is the top wide receiver greg Like, he he's
Speaker 1: had one good game, Like there's been some volume. Even
Speaker 1: the targets, the targets haven't necessarily been there for you,
Speaker 1: maybe in regards to how often the Titans throw the
Speaker 1: football because they don't throw it much, right, but he
Speaker 1: hasn't been good. What's it's the targets, I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: because there's nobody else on the team. All right, But
Speaker 1: do you play in points per target leagues? No? But
Speaker 1: like people are gonna plug him in because they know
Speaker 1: they're gonna get like seven targets, eight targets from the
Speaker 1: probably most likely in this game. You know what I'm saying. Okay,
Speaker 1: so I'm probably gonna plug him in just for that.
Speaker 1: I look, there's four there's four teams on a bye
Speaker 1: this week. I'm just saying I would try my best
Speaker 1: to find another option, and Corey Davis's going up against
Speaker 1: the Chargers. The secondary and their defense overall has played
Speaker 1: better the past couple of weeks. And we talked about
Speaker 1: targets for Corey Davis. He said double digits twice this year.
Speaker 1: Fine that you know. Week one he had thirteen and
Speaker 1: in that game against the Eagles he had fifteen targets.
Speaker 1: The other four games, he's had seven once, he's had
Speaker 1: six ONTs, and he's had four or less targets in
Speaker 1: two games. Why are we still excited about Corey Davis?
Speaker 1: I'm not. You know that I was never excited about
Speaker 1: Corey Davis. Just baffled me. I'm still talking about my trade.
Speaker 1: Out of my trade, Why did you move fast so quick?
Speaker 1: Because I was talking about Derrick Henry and then I
Speaker 1: got into the Titans offense and I went off on
Speaker 1: a tangent the Titans suck right now, and I just
Speaker 1: so I told him so. I said that your response
Speaker 1: was that Christian Kirk has more upside, which is what
Speaker 1: you said he does. He responded by saying, quote, Frank
Speaker 1: also has the worst hair this side of the Mississippi
Speaker 1: Are you really gonna listen to that guy? Is that true? Though? Like,
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Here it used to be worse.
Speaker 1: What does Max's hair look like? It changes? Sometimes he
Speaker 1: has no hair, sometimes a lot of hair, Like he
Speaker 1: goes full bald, you know, full bald, don't call bald,
Speaker 1: what kind of ball? But like Jeff the skeleton bald?
Speaker 1: Now man Max, here's a lot about my hair. I
Speaker 1: gotta see what Max's hair looks like. You are google it, not, sir?
Speaker 1: All right? Um, Yeah, there's a football tonight Arizona and Denver.
Speaker 1: If they want to go to a bar and watch
Speaker 1: Frank tonight, try to. Just so you're gonna watch the
Speaker 1: baking show tonight? Yeah, we watched the last night, so
Speaker 1: you're all out of baking shows? Yeah, it's over this week?
Speaker 1: We um. I watched the Nick game and get you
Speaker 1: Get l a bron Lebron at ten thirty to night
Speaker 1: if you want to stay up late for that one.
Speaker 1: I probably watched the first half. Honestly. I watched what
Speaker 1: did you so? Last night? I watched the Knicks, which
Speaker 1: are awesome, and then they're up twenty five in the
Speaker 1: third quarter. I was like, all right, what we can
Speaker 1: watched baking that that was fair. Yeah, the New York
Speaker 1: Knicks now they're back at people texting me, you know,
Speaker 1: we're making the playoffs this year. Trank playing the Atlanta Hawks.
Speaker 1: Brant him text last night, Frank, I don't know my
Speaker 1: text last night? Something the gun here? Greg? So he
Speaker 1: Nicks are fun again. So Frank is not good for
Speaker 1: those that listened. For those that listening to the show,
Speaker 1: they know that Franks Mr Negative right, Mr angry negativity,
Speaker 1: the whole deal. I got it right. You understand that.
Speaker 1: I'm a realist. So I'm sitting there watching the Knicks,
Speaker 1: and I get it. They're playing the Hawks, right, the
Speaker 1: Hawks think, and they're gonna have handle the truth. I
Speaker 1: give them the truth. They're gonna they're gonna have one
Speaker 1: of the worst records in the NBA. I get that.
Speaker 1: But as a Knicks fan, as the one that has
Speaker 1: lived and died with the stupid, stupid, stupid team, they
Speaker 1: were winning my twenty five points in the second quarter,
Speaker 1: and this is awesome. This is so much fun. They
Speaker 1: were running, they were hitting shots, they were playing defense.
Speaker 1: It was awesome. So I'm really excited. So, like, you
Speaker 1: know what, let me text my BFF about this. So
Speaker 1: I texted him and I said, the Knicks are fun
Speaker 1: again if they're while he says, David Fizdel does not
Speaker 1: care about your fantasy team, and they're fun against the Hawks,
Speaker 1: L O L. I know he does care about know
Speaker 1: von Ley. Let's go. I didn't say they're good, just
Speaker 1: they're fun. I didn't text you about von Ley. Julius
Speaker 1: randoms the three life is good, seventy first half points
Speaker 1: and the Knicks leak Monk is fun watching that game.
Speaker 1: I was watching my guy Jane, I'm watching the books.
Speaker 1: I'm watching a good game, a good clothes game. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna watch from the New York Knicks in the worst
Speaker 1: team in the league. I'm not done. I'm not done yet.
Speaker 1: Then I go, so Anthony started talking about his guys,
Speaker 1: like some bound is that I start killing Abaca, And
Speaker 1: I asked, before our team sucks at that point? Where
Speaker 1: up nine? Nothing? Um? Yeah, you're just all over the place.
Speaker 1: So then he's like, it's our team bad. We're winning
Speaker 1: every category Greg. So then he's like, oh, some always
Speaker 1: a sneaky Fabron and I just doing well is he?
Speaker 1: And then we talk about Fando a little bit that
Speaker 1: didn't work out so great for either of us. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then not are really though? Um? And then I go, gst,
Speaker 1: we have a bids in? I go yes, And then
Speaker 1: he turned the coversation back to basketball. So then I
Speaker 1: put bids in because I figured, you know, Floria Frankie,
Speaker 1: they forgot put in. It was up very late last night.
Speaker 1: You were off later than I was. And he texted
Speaker 1: us anything you want to do at midnight, knowing I
Speaker 1: was sleeping, And then I texted Florida on the side
Speaker 1: and he, uh, you did, Yeah, she changed all my beds.
Speaker 1: What did you think of my wit? When you want
Speaker 1: did GSDA and you're like, wow, there's bids and here
Speaker 1: what were you thinking? Well, my first thought was sloppy? Really,
Speaker 1: the bids were sloppy. Really, I have like O C
Speaker 1: D when it comes to bids, so like I'll put
Speaker 1: my bids in and I have I have to have
Speaker 1: a lot of backup. Its like I have to have backup.
Speaker 1: It's for every single player. Well, Greg, I gonna tell
Speaker 1: you play fantasy football. You know why you're one in
Speaker 1: five with Max. But I'm yeah, you have a weaver
Speaker 1: run every day. You gotta put backup bids and Greg,
Speaker 1: so I looked at your bids and I was like,
Speaker 1: all right, I appreciate that Greg did this. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna change some stuff around here. I'm gonna put in
Speaker 1: some backup bids, to which we got nobody, because like,
Speaker 1: why do we play in the league where there's like
Speaker 1: ten bench spots? She just let me pick up the
Speaker 1: players I wanted. Who did you want one of guys
Speaker 1: that had money? Did you ever? Did you decrease any
Speaker 1: of my beds? I didn't see any of them. I
Speaker 1: just X them all. Are you kidding me? I was like, no,
Speaker 1: this is sloppy, and I'm like, I'm just gonna redo
Speaker 1: it myself. The abolish because I spent time thinking about it,
Speaker 1: and admittedly, like, this is not only a dreg job
Speaker 1: for TBFF, it's usually a Frank job. And I thought
Speaker 1: Frank was gonna forget. You know, Frank has many jobs.
Speaker 1: On a Wednesday night and I thought our season was
Speaker 1: on the line. I was like, listen, I'm gonna sit
Speaker 1: here before I go to sleep and put bids in.
Speaker 1: And I went down the list, I noticed we didn't
Speaker 1: have a kicker. I put a couple of backup kicker
Speaker 1: bids in, but we got Georgio to his idiot kicks
Speaker 1: up a kickers man be a kicker for one damn way,
Speaker 1: yea have like fifteen points. And then we got when
Speaker 1: he wins next win just the week, when he wins
Speaker 1: us the week? What will you give me? I had kickers,
Speaker 1: I had a kicker and a backup in backup two
Speaker 1: dollars on Why did you do that? Why did you
Speaker 1: leave my kickers in? Because I don't want Matt Prator
Speaker 1: throwing that raider. I don't want that Prater. I don't
Speaker 1: want Matt Prator in the outdoors against Miami. I want
Speaker 1: Georgio to Vecchio Dome against the Giants. You're gonna put
Speaker 1: up fifteen fantasy points. R Kenry is bad, man, Henry's
Speaker 1: really bad. The Titans are bad. Christian are the Titans?
Speaker 1: You're so excited about the Titans every single year. We're
Speaker 1: gonna find him a way to get sucked back into
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota. What has he done besides prying about his elbow?
Speaker 1: Is nerve whatever it is, it isn't done anything. We
Speaker 1: have doctor d yes all right, Dr Korbacks, I've gotta
Speaker 1: put that in the description. Actually, that's what we don't.
Speaker 1: We didn't. It's Virginia. Actually, Virginia Vizca shows the show
Speaker 1: to that. Well. Good. We have a lot of injuries.
Speaker 1: We got to talk about the The initial list that
Speaker 1: I sent her yesterday is like twenty people long, and
Speaker 1: I was like, I can't do this, so I started,
Speaker 1: so what do you do? Make it eighteen? I saw
Speaker 1: the list. I think it was incredible. Usually it's ten.
Speaker 1: Remember when we were all so excited because the Titans
Speaker 1: hired Matt m Floor to be their offensive coordinator that
Speaker 1: there was if there was a team every year that
Speaker 1: like gives you the most promise, you like potential for
Speaker 1: their offensive outlook, mhm. The Tennessee Titans crushed us every
Speaker 1: single year. Man like Marcus Mariota has done nothing. He
Speaker 1: had a seven or eight game stretch, either his rookie
Speaker 1: or his second season, whatever it was. We had great matchups.
Speaker 1: We all got sucked into that. We drafted him high
Speaker 1: as a top ten quarterback last year. Did nothing. They're
Speaker 1: bringing Matt Lafleur. Oh, he's gonna bring in concepts from
Speaker 1: Sean mcveigh's offense. He worked under Sean McVeigh. He worked
Speaker 1: with the Rams. They're gonna have a cool, a good
Speaker 1: fun offense there in Tennessee. What do we get? Nothing?
Speaker 1: Offensive line is crap. Mariota's crap, Derrick Henry's crap, Dean
Speaker 1: Lewis is crap, Corey Davis crap. Venture wants to play
Speaker 1: him in the points per Target League. I hate the
Speaker 1: things name those are like the Titans and Peyton Barber.
Speaker 1: Those are on my piss me off list. So we're
Speaker 1: going piss me off list. I can't say what I
Speaker 1: wanted to say. Do you know the starting quarterback for
Speaker 1: the thousand Tigers is probably someone who's gonna be drafted
Speaker 1: by the Giant sex here. I guess I'm I guess
Speaker 1: I'm in Tom Flacco. Oh god, Joe's little brother. Well,
Speaker 1: uh oh, I don't know. I don't I don't even
Speaker 1: have anything for Tom Flacco. Nothing. Maybe you can get
Speaker 1: a really good defense, he'll win you, guys a super Bowl,
Speaker 1: and then you can overpay him too. How many the
Speaker 1: Rules of the Jets one in your lifetime? It was
Speaker 1: this I was making I was making a stab at
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco, Greg not even the Giants. I felt like
Speaker 1: you were talking about the Giants No, I wasn't. I
Speaker 1: was taking a stab because Joe Flacco won a Super
Speaker 1: Bowl with a great defense and they overpaid him on
Speaker 1: a contract year. Yes, so that's why I wasn't. You know,
Speaker 1: make sure you have Eli. I want jerk and Eli.
Speaker 1: Manning sucks too. This rated for his career. This guy's
Speaker 1: called average quarterback who made phenomenal plays when they needed
Speaker 1: him most. He's an average quarterback. This guy is calling
Speaker 1: me a jerk, and I put in fabians last night.
Speaker 1: He even look x x x x i X the
Speaker 1: first one out by accident, which was your main curse.

Speaker 1: John and email back right now and tea. Thank you
Speaker 1: very much. As I do, I want to welcome in
Speaker 1: our goued friend. Have to talk to you in a while.
Speaker 1: It's Virginia Zakis. What's going on, Virginia. Hey, guys, good
Speaker 1: to be back. Thank you for for coming back. It
Speaker 1: has been so long, and that I basically I was
Speaker 1: telling you Frank before and everybody listening watching that the
Speaker 1: initial list I sent you it was about thirty players
Speaker 1: or so long, and I cut it to like figetin
Speaker 1: players and Franks still like you gave her encyclopedia and
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, sorry, We're ready to go, all right, We're ready,
Speaker 1: We're ready to go. We're ready to go, obviously because
Speaker 1: I'm a selfish human being. I want to start that
Speaker 1: way with my players, and in particular Monday Night football.
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley and Mohamed san New go for Atlanta. Both
Speaker 1: left the game early on Sunday. For really, it was
Speaker 1: an ankle injury. For SNeW, I believe it was his hip.
Speaker 1: What is the latest on the wide receivers in Atlanta?
Speaker 1: So both players are actually expected to practice today. I'm
Speaker 1: guessing they're going to be limited and they're going to
Speaker 1: kind of feel it out and see how both players respond.
Speaker 1: But it sounds like SNeW and Ridley have a shot
Speaker 1: at playing on Monday Night. Um. Really, it seems like
Speaker 1: he's dealing with the bone bruise, which is not as
Speaker 1: serious as if it was an ankle sprain, So that's
Speaker 1: good news. We're still showing a two week optimal recovery time,
Speaker 1: so I don't expect him to be a hundred percent
Speaker 1: if he plays Monday, but should still should still be
Speaker 1: able to get out there, just might be a little painful.
Speaker 1: Let me throw this up for just for a moment,
Speaker 1: let me throw this out. You these there a chance
Speaker 1: because it's only a two week injury or so or
Speaker 1: two recovery time for optimal recovery, that they hold them
Speaker 1: out this week because they have a bye the week after,
Speaker 1: so you would really be a thousand percent ready to
Speaker 1: go when they came back from the bye. Is that
Speaker 1: a possibility. It's possible, But again, because this isn't a
Speaker 1: sprain or a ligament injury, there's less of a risk
Speaker 1: of re injuring it and making the injury worse. Um
Speaker 1: definitely can be painful, and there's a chance he wouldn't
Speaker 1: finish the game, but if the pains under control, I
Speaker 1: don't think for really they're going to hold him out now.
Speaker 1: Sanu is a little different because he's been dealing with
Speaker 1: this issue for a few weeks. He's been limited ahead
Speaker 1: of week five and week six, so and then of
Speaker 1: course he didn't finish the game last week. So there's
Speaker 1: more long term concern with Mohammed Sanu, and he has
Speaker 1: a history of other injuries lower body muscular strains, so
Speaker 1: right now he's an elevated injury risk. I still think
Speaker 1: he has a shot at suiting up, but I think
Speaker 1: they'd be more likely to let Sanu take the week off,
Speaker 1: have the by to fully heel since again this has
Speaker 1: been a lingering issue. Yeah, I would be surprised if
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley doesn't play in this game because they need
Speaker 1: it right now. The Falcons are two and four. You know,
Speaker 1: if you dropped the two in five, it's really hard
Speaker 1: to come back from that. I mean, even where they
Speaker 1: are now, they're not in a great spot. So they
Speaker 1: gotta obviously try and win that game to get to
Speaker 1: three and four. And obviously the Giants are already at
Speaker 1: one in five, so I think we at least see
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley. But if you plan on using one of
Speaker 1: Ridley or Mohammed Sanu, as I referenced with Greg, you
Speaker 1: might want to just have Justin Hardy on your bench
Speaker 1: in case one of those guys can't go. Virginia, we
Speaker 1: haven't spoke to you in a while, but not much
Speaker 1: has changed, especially when it comes to Dalvin Cook and
Speaker 1: his hamstring injury. I think fantasy owners were relieved that
Speaker 1: they held him out last week. I know that he
Speaker 1: was practicing on a limited basis last week and now
Speaker 1: practicing in full this week, But in a game where
Speaker 1: they were favored by double digit points at home against
Speaker 1: the Cardinals, they opted to hold Dalvin Cook out of
Speaker 1: that game, so that we assume he's healthy for this
Speaker 1: game and moving forward. Is that the case with Dalvin Cook?
Speaker 1: And if he plays, do we expect him to have
Speaker 1: a full workload. Yeah, so I still don't expect him
Speaker 1: to be a hundred percent just yet, but he should
Speaker 1: be getting close. Um. I was definitely happy to last week.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be full participant in practice this week. Barring
Speaker 1: a step back. Of course, um our album shows that
Speaker 1: his numbers have improved a little bit. He's still an
Speaker 1: elevated injury risk and honestly, I think he could stay
Speaker 1: that way for the rest of the season. Of course,
Speaker 1: coming off the a c L tear now this recurring
Speaker 1: hamstring strain, it's just such a tough injury to really
Speaker 1: get back to a percent. But his health performance factor
Speaker 1: has improved to above average, which means we're now showing
Speaker 1: that he should be able to play very well. If
Speaker 1: he gets out there could still be on a snap count. Um,
Speaker 1: but I think he's someone if he plays, you got
Speaker 1: to have him in lineups and just hope he doesn't
Speaker 1: reindrew that hamstring. I do agree that if he plays,
Speaker 1: he's a guy that you do have to have in
Speaker 1: your line up. I have him ranked as a top
Speaker 1: twenty four running back this week, so he's right there
Speaker 1: as like an RB two. But would you take this
Speaker 1: opportunity to try and sell him while you know fantasy
Speaker 1: owners are optimistic that he's returning, or so you just
Speaker 1: kind of hold him and see what you can get
Speaker 1: out of him. Um. Yeah, I think it'd be worth
Speaker 1: exploring a trade opportunity if you can get something back,
Speaker 1: because again, these hamstrings are just so tricky. A lot
Speaker 1: of players can get back to you, but really getting
Speaker 1: back to a hundred for scent sometimes just doesn't happen
Speaker 1: until the season is over. Um, So definitely worth exploring.
Speaker 1: I brought that up because it seems like everyone's still
Speaker 1: trying to buy by by on Down and Cook, but
Speaker 1: even if he plays, it doesn't sound like he's ever
Speaker 1: gonna be a right with this hampstring injury. Yeah at
Speaker 1: this point, um, I agree. Last week I was all
Speaker 1: about bouying Dowmond Cook and even making a purchase potentially
Speaker 1: of Leonard Fournette. I'm scared off by both of them
Speaker 1: at this moment and then being a healthy at all
Speaker 1: in team. We're talking to Virginia Zakas from Inside Injuries
Speaker 1: in Virginia. Again, admittedly, I'm selfish and I told you
Speaker 1: that from the beginning, So I went with Calvin Ridley,
Speaker 1: and next up I have to ask about Cooper Cup
Speaker 1: because he left last week. We thought with a season
Speaker 1: ending knee injury. I originally thought it was the Achilles
Speaker 1: didn't happen, and then we thought it was a knee
Speaker 1: and it could have been an a c L, or
Speaker 1: it could have been a tell attendant God forbid, or
Speaker 1: something really really serious. Next thing you know, he's back
Speaker 1: on the field, very briefly, but back on the field.
Speaker 1: He's going to miss this week, already ruled out. What
Speaker 1: they're saying is a sprain m c L. What's really
Speaker 1: going on with Cooper Cup. Yes, we're showing a grade
Speaker 1: to m c L sprain, which means there's probably a
Speaker 1: partial tear to the ligament um, but nothing that requires surgery.
Speaker 1: It's also very rare that the m c L requires
Speaker 1: surgery unless it's a full tear. So that means he's
Speaker 1: got a four week optimal recovery time UM similar actually
Speaker 1: to Doug Baldwin earlier in the year. UM. So that
Speaker 1: means a safe return around week ten obviously, right now,
Speaker 1: he's a very high injury risk. Happy to see they've
Speaker 1: already ruled him out, but this could be a multi
Speaker 1: week absence. Um, But good news is it wasn't a
Speaker 1: season ending injury. We thought it was possible it was
Speaker 1: a teller tendon tear or very bad ankle sprain as well. UM.
Speaker 1: Still wouldn't be surprised if there is some damage to
Speaker 1: his ankle, even though the team hasn't reported that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: looking at a multi week absence, but this shouldn't be
Speaker 1: something that ends his season or ruins the second half
Speaker 1: of this season. And that's pretty scary. Big Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know hear just hearing his name in the same as
Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin. I don't agree. Actually, I took it as
Speaker 1: a positive because Doug Baldwin over the last two weeks
Speaker 1: he's played every snap right, like the Snapp per centative
Speaker 1: is there. And even though he was very ineffective two
Speaker 1: weeks ago, last week he was great, and and Jim
Speaker 1: Sannas believes he was a stock up player. So that
Speaker 1: doesn't scare me as much as I thought it would.
Speaker 1: I'm okay with it. So but you gotta make sure
Speaker 1: that you have Josh Reynolds, if you went, I agree
Speaker 1: with that. Um, Virginia, I want to ask you about
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton, another player dealing with the hamstring injury.
Speaker 1: Been dealing with the hamstring injury for a while now.
Speaker 1: Even if he plays, it doesn't seem like it's a
Speaker 1: great matchup. We'll get into that probably later on today
Speaker 1: or tomorrow. Um, but hamstring with t Y Hilton? Is
Speaker 1: he good to go? It seems like he's practicing in
Speaker 1: full Um. Does he get the full compliment of snaps
Speaker 1: or is it just kind of the same situation as
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. Yeah, so Ti Hilton was hurt lives around
Speaker 1: three weeks ago. Um, he returned to practice yesterday. UM.
Speaker 1: I think he had to quote something along the lines
Speaker 1: of my on my less than one percent is better
Speaker 1: than a lot of people. So he's clearly not fully recovered. Um,
Speaker 1: we're showing he's still a high injury risk, which is
Speaker 1: no surprise considering this hamstring string. He's still a week
Speaker 1: away from his optimal recovery time. But what's interesting is
Speaker 1: his HPF is above average, So if he plays, we
Speaker 1: actually think there's a decent chance that he'll play. Pretty well, um,
Speaker 1: but high injury risk, so good chance he doesn't finish
Speaker 1: the game because he reaggregates that hamstring, right. T Y
Speaker 1: Hilton typically a guy who plays through injury. Seems like
Speaker 1: he's always kind of banged up. I have him as
Speaker 1: a lower and wide receiver to this week just based
Speaker 1: on volume. But if he does play, it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a tough matchup against Trade. Why Yeah, it's not exactly
Speaker 1: the match you're looking for his return from the injury.
Speaker 1: And listen to the Buffalo Bill's defense has been pretty
Speaker 1: good in general, and I think Hill is gonna play
Speaker 1: this week. He's right, he is better at and the
Speaker 1: rest of the schmucks of the cold throughout there. If
Speaker 1: he plays, he's gonna get double digit targets. Like it's
Speaker 1: as easy as that. Correct, you gotta start them. Based
Speaker 1: on that volume, He's still a wide receiver to even
Speaker 1: at a bad matchup. I agree. We're talking to Virginia
Speaker 1: za Is from Inside Injuries again transparency selfish. Now, I
Speaker 1: think that Jamine I said that, you'd exactly. I think
Speaker 1: that Jermaine curse everywhere this week, Virginia, because I believe
Speaker 1: the Quincy new injuries pretty serious, already ruled out for
Speaker 1: this week, and the Jets Wide receiving Corps in general,
Speaker 1: it's very beat off. What's the latest on Quincy new one?
Speaker 1: So when m R. I showed a high angle spring,
Speaker 1: which is not good, Um, he was already an elevated
Speaker 1: injury risk. Now he's high risk poor HPF UM. The
Speaker 1: absolute earliest he should return his week ten. But high
Speaker 1: angle springs are the kind of thing that just linger
Speaker 1: for months, really not even weeks. So he's already out
Speaker 1: week seven. They expect him to miss at least three
Speaker 1: weeks um. I think it's going to be longer than that,
Speaker 1: and if he returns within the next month, it's really
Speaker 1: going to hurt his play. Okay, okay, Yeah, So Jammine
Speaker 1: Curse looks like he's he's by days the wide receiver
Speaker 1: three for me this week to start off, if you
Speaker 1: just you mentioned Robby anders In was dealing with the
Speaker 1: Hampshire injury. Apparently did return to practice today, but we'll
Speaker 1: have to keep an eye on that. I do think
Speaker 1: Jemaine Curses he's probably in line for eight to tend
Speaker 1: targets in this matchup against the Vikings Virginia. I want
Speaker 1: to ask you about. Um, honestly a situation I wish
Speaker 1: you guys had like a diagnosis you can give us
Speaker 1: for a player sucking or you know, bad usage by
Speaker 1: a team. But unfortunately, we'll just talk about his injury
Speaker 1: for now. And that's Amari Cooper who is dealing with
Speaker 1: a nasty, nasty concussion. We saw him leave the game
Speaker 1: in Week six. Didn't do anything for fantasy owners. He's
Speaker 1: been a very, very boom or bus candidate for fantasy football.
Speaker 1: Now enters the buy in week seven. How bad is
Speaker 1: that concussion? Can we expect him out of Week eight,
Speaker 1: whether he's in a Raiders uniform or not. So I
Speaker 1: never really like to predict if the players going to
Speaker 1: return from a concussion, just because they're so unpredictable. UM,
Speaker 1: I will say most players return within two weeks. I
Speaker 1: think it's at least so I think he has a
Speaker 1: good chance at clearing next week. Um. But Cooper also
Speaker 1: suffered a pretty single to get concussion last year that's
Speaker 1: similar to this one. Just looked awful. So two concussions
Speaker 1: within a year is a huge, huge, huge red flag. Um.
Speaker 1: He also has a somewhat concerning injury history. He had
Speaker 1: a high angle sprain he tried to play through last year. Um,
Speaker 1: so he's kind of always going to be at an
Speaker 1: increased injury risk now because of his concussions and his
Speaker 1: past injuries. So even if he plays from an injury perspective,
Speaker 1: I will trust him in we Gate, Greg. I can't
Speaker 1: wait till Mary Cooper is like on the Jets next year.
Speaker 1: He's their wide receiver one. He's slated, He's guaranteed to
Speaker 1: get a hundred and fifty targets this year, and then
Speaker 1: he lets us down again. I'm not doing it next year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she says, you didn't do it. This year's gonna listen
Speaker 1: to you for once. We're back with Virginia Zagas from
Speaker 1: Inside Injuries and Virginia last kind of maybe selfish question
Speaker 1: for you here three by hackers. They're on a by
Speaker 1: this week. Does that mean when they get back Randall
Speaker 1: Cobb and Geronimo Allison and we ready to rock? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think both players will be ready to return. Um.
Speaker 1: We actually said that Allison would have had they had
Speaker 1: a game in Week seven, should have been healthy enough
Speaker 1: to come back. But he still does remain an elevated
Speaker 1: injury risk again just because hamstring strains are tricky. Randall
Speaker 1: Cobb has a played since Week three for his injury.
Speaker 1: We're actually showing a five week optimal recovery time, which
Speaker 1: means a return in week eight is what we expected.
Speaker 1: So he should be good to go. But again, he
Speaker 1: still has a high injury risk. It's going to stay
Speaker 1: that way for a while. UM. He has a much
Speaker 1: longer injury history than Gernoo Allison and UM. But his
Speaker 1: health performance factor is already above average, which means by
Speaker 1: next week he should be good to plug into fantasy lineups.
Speaker 1: All right, cool, perfect, Right? We keep getting burned by
Speaker 1: the same guys. You realize that, like a Mari Cooper
Speaker 1: Randall Cobb, like, oh, you know, anytime and Rodgers has
Speaker 1: two wide receivers, they're going to finish inside the top
Speaker 1: twenty four. Whatever it might be. Like, we just fall
Speaker 1: for the same guys every single year. And a player
Speaker 1: that you fell for, Davante Freeman, we drafted in the
Speaker 1: second round. Unfortunately, not because I to him, because I
Speaker 1: certainly did not want him on my team Virginia. There
Speaker 1: was a report today that Dan Quinn said that Devantae
Speaker 1: Freeman can actually return this season. He's eligible to return
Speaker 1: in week fifteen, he underwent groin surgery. Everybody went out
Speaker 1: and picked up Edo Smith and rightfully, so, Uh, this
Speaker 1: isn't realistic, is it. It's possible, So we're showing a
Speaker 1: Grade three groin injury. UM likely underwent surgery for sports hernia,
Speaker 1: although the team hasn't confirmed that. UM. So we're giving
Speaker 1: him a nine week optimal recovery time, So a return
Speaker 1: around week fifteen or sixteen. UM seems like it is
Speaker 1: possible as long as there are no setbacks throughout his recovery.
Speaker 1: But because of his all of his injuries this year,
Speaker 1: he's had the see the serious knee injury at the
Speaker 1: end of last season, missed four weeks with a knee
Speaker 1: injury again this year, it could be best just to
Speaker 1: shut him down for the year and hope that he
Speaker 1: can come back next season healthy and ready to go. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's you feel better about drafting him now in the
Speaker 1: second round. Gread not great man. No, we didn't even
Speaker 1: get to drop him yet, or did we? I tried? No,
Speaker 1: we didn't. I tried. We both tried. You didn't try
Speaker 1: as hard as either. He most went for like two
Speaker 1: hundred dollars out of a thousand who saw that coming,
Speaker 1: venture val coming, he's going to pay for first. There
Speaker 1: you go, Virginia. Final question for me, it's about the quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill and Josh Allen. Both one got hurt out
Speaker 1: of nowhere and practice. It seems it's pretty significant the
Speaker 1: other one who heard his elbow in a game. Both
Speaker 1: aren't starting and seemingly the short term or the or term,
Speaker 1: long term, long term term? Yeah, the short term or
Speaker 1: the long term. What's the deal with Josh Allen and
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill. So for Josh Allen, Um, he's dealing with
Speaker 1: the u c l spring, which is with baseball pagers,
Speaker 1: we often hear the need for Tommy John surgery and
Speaker 1: there's a tearritor the u c L. UM. In Josh
Speaker 1: Allen's case, there's likely a partial tear, but at this
Speaker 1: point not one that's serious enough that he needs surgery. Um,
Speaker 1: he's expected to miss at least the next two to
Speaker 1: three games and then helping week to week. Um, this
Speaker 1: is gonna be something we're gonna need to watch the
Speaker 1: entire season. Even once he's clear to return. Our algorithm
Speaker 1: is showing he needs at least four weeks before he
Speaker 1: returns to the field. Even then, it's going to be
Speaker 1: very risky for him to play. And just because surgery
Speaker 1: isn't necessary now doesn't mean he won't eventually have to
Speaker 1: undergo Tommy John surgery. So I hope that isn't the
Speaker 1: case here, but it is still a possibility. UM. For
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill, he's dealing with a shoulder strain. Based on
Speaker 1: how the hit occurred. UM, it looks like there's probably
Speaker 1: some damage to the rotator cuff. Again at this point,
Speaker 1: doesn't sound like he needs surgery, but it's possible if
Speaker 1: there's a tear to the rotator cuff that, um, he
Speaker 1: would eventually need surgery. He's out this week, there's a
Speaker 1: good chance he's out week eight, UM, And I don't
Speaker 1: think that there's any certain you know, any sort of
Speaker 1: idea if by week nine he'll be ready to go.
Speaker 1: So we're showing he needs a minimum of four weeks
Speaker 1: off for that shoulder to heal. BG. Have you ever
Speaker 1: heard of a talent sprain, because that's what I think
Speaker 1: Josh Allen might be sufering from. Very nice. You know,
Speaker 1: it's not very that's not that's not's not very nice.
Speaker 1: I keep it real. Look, I tell the truth on this.
Speaker 1: You don't, you're a liar, I am, I I don't know.
Speaker 1: All right, that's it. Yeah, Virginia, Jock has We appreciate
Speaker 1: the time as always, thank you for coming aboard and
Speaker 1: actually all of our injury questions today we really needed
Speaker 1: your help and thank you for coming through for us. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you very much. All Right, there you go.
Speaker 1: That's Virginia Soccas from inside Injuries. Frank anything surprised either, Um, No,
Speaker 1: we mentioned we hit on the Cooper Cup thing a
Speaker 1: little bit. I think again, if you own him, you
Speaker 1: gotta get Josh Reynolds on your team. Josh Reynolds dealing
Speaker 1: with the hand injury. But if Cooper Cup doesn't go,
Speaker 1: we've seen that Sean McVeigh and the Rams make all
Speaker 1: three wide receivers who play in the offense fantasy viable.
Speaker 1: So I just think we continue to hit on that. Look,
Speaker 1: you know, we could have asked about Leonard four Net,
Speaker 1: but we're gonna get a similar response to what we
Speaker 1: did about Dalvin Cook. I would say, Leonard fourn it
Speaker 1: is probably a little bit worse than where Dalvin Cooke
Speaker 1: is at this point. You know, so everyone wants to
Speaker 1: buy low on Dalvin Cook. Every wants to buy low
Speaker 1: on Leonard four Nette. Can't it just be a thing
Speaker 1: that like, they're not gonna be a thing this year?
Speaker 1: Can't just be possible? Know absolutely, you can easily be
Speaker 1: a thing where you just busts were you running back
Speaker 1: to the bus, it was just the question would be pooh.
Speaker 1: The injury issues have caught Leonard Fournette Dalmin Cook. A
Speaker 1: conversation you and I had so often this past summer,
Speaker 1: which one would you want? The answer? Neither exactly. We
Speaker 1: take a break, we come back, we get into Frankie's

Speaker 1: the NBA and the optimizer actually open my computer right now. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out what i want to play though,
Speaker 1: Do me the tournament or a a cash get What
Speaker 1: are you thinking? I'm probably gonna go with the old
Speaker 1: one and one one, like five bucks each something like that.
Speaker 1: Try and hit on the big upside and then take
Speaker 1: something a little bit safer in case you don't hit
Speaker 1: on that, just kind of get your money back. That's
Speaker 1: how I look at it usually, all right, So I'll
Speaker 1: think I'll do a five dollar cash game and then uh, tournament.
Speaker 1: How's that. Yeah, it's like that's the really popular one
Speaker 1: every single night, right, Yeah, it's like first place, all right,

Speaker 1: four three six eight seven nine. Let's go to the phone,
Speaker 1: shall we, Frank? Alright, let's hit up Jared and St. Louis.
Speaker 1: That's so Jared, Hey, what's up? Guys? Not much? Man,
Speaker 1: what's going on? I'm gonna twelve team full PPR, and
Speaker 1: I gotta play two of these guys. Uh. I got
Speaker 1: Edo Smith, Royce Freeman and Peyton Barber. Which one of
Speaker 1: use them? Do you bench Frank, Edo, Royce or Peyton Barber? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm not using Royce Freeman in PPR because he doesn't
Speaker 1: catch passes at all. He's pretty much a standard league
Speaker 1: score a touchdown or bus kind of play. And it's
Speaker 1: unfortunate because it's a good matchup against the Arizona Cardinals
Speaker 1: as well, But I just don't want to get involved there.
Speaker 1: That leaves between Edo Smith and Hayton Barber. I think
Speaker 1: you guys play two right now? Oh yeah, Royce Freeman,
Speaker 1: he's the clear. It makes a lot easier. You don't
Speaker 1: want to hear what I was gonna say. I don't
Speaker 1: if you appreciate the call eight four four eight four
Speaker 1: three went with me because you're smart. Yeah, start painting
Speaker 1: Barber over. It's because there's less mouths to feed you.
Speaker 1: Damn right, there is. Uh the quarterback rankings available right
Speaker 1: now over at rhodod Experts. We're still calling this the
Speaker 1: high five. What have you talked to Scott yet? I
Speaker 1: don't have enough time. I get an email every single
Speaker 1: week about like some like minute thing that I miss
Speaker 1: in my writing, like I have to capitalize week three.
Speaker 1: I just I can't do it. Graig, you can talk
Speaker 1: to I'm not not my job, man, I got other
Speaker 1: stuff going not my job either. Your column. It's just
Speaker 1: supposed to be the the best Fantasy five. We say
Speaker 1: this every week, best Fantasy five. You want to just
Speaker 1: go in and change it. I think I can. He
Speaker 1: probably can just go on and change it. I don't
Speaker 1: want to notice all rank he's our order Experts dot com.
Speaker 1: They're free m best Fantasy five ranks. Yes, the best
Speaker 1: Fantasy five. You've said that about five times now. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to give it up. And you want to talk
Speaker 1: about any of my quarterbacks. You want to talk to
Speaker 1: a call or what do you want to do? You
Speaker 1: have Andy Don't ranks your third rank quarterback this week?
Speaker 1: He was the mediocre last week Gains Pittsburgh, good matchup
Speaker 1: this matter. This week against Kansas City divisional matchup, those
Speaker 1: are like hard hitting agreed. This week you get can't
Speaker 1: can't against Kansas City. You feeling much better? Yes? I
Speaker 1: am fifty seven and a half point game total in
Speaker 1: this game. It's the highest on the slate this week.
Speaker 1: I just think that the Bengals defense is not going
Speaker 1: to be able to stop the Kansas City Chiefs. We've
Speaker 1: seen that every single week. The Chiefs are gonna go
Speaker 1: out and score points. Any Dalton is gonna be playing
Speaker 1: from behind because of that. He is a top five
Speaker 1: fantasy quarterback. We just saw the Chiefs give up a
Speaker 1: ton of fantasy production to Tom Brady as well. So
Speaker 1: I think this is a bounce back spot for the
Speaker 1: Bengals offensive players. I like Joe Mixing a lot. I
Speaker 1: like Tyler Boyd a lot as well. He's very close
Speaker 1: to being a top twelve wide receiver for me. A J.
Speaker 1: Green a top five wide receiver c j Uzoma a
Speaker 1: borderline tight end one this week. So I like all
Speaker 1: of the Bengals weapons, and if I like the weapons,
Speaker 1: I have to like the guy throwing the ball, and
Speaker 1: that is any Dalton. Okay, yes, it makes sense. I
Speaker 1: must top three quarterback though, I think that's where I
Speaker 1: feel weird. I mean, you're splitting, You're kind of gross.
Speaker 1: So like Jared goff is ranked very highly this week,
Speaker 1: he has She's a consensus, you know, he's the fourth
Speaker 1: ranked quarterback this week. I just think there could be
Speaker 1: more back and forth between the Bengals and the whereas
Speaker 1: the night has head in Green May on Monday night. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's kind of flukey though. I just ram Scondary. He's
Speaker 1: not any special. I agree, and I like markis Goodwin
Speaker 1: this week. I have him as a high end wide receiver. Three.
Speaker 1: Jared Gofs gonna be above end Dawnt in my opinion.
Speaker 1: But yeah, but Jared goff Ley to eight last week too.
Speaker 1: He did It's all Todd yards rushing. It's always all
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley. That's not changing. That's that's what caps Jared
Speaker 1: Goff's upside. Yes, we saw that huge game whatever it was.
Speaker 1: Three Thursdays ago now against the Vikings, and you know
Speaker 1: a lot of people are holding onto that because it
Speaker 1: was a primetime game and that's the last thing we
Speaker 1: remember seeing of Jared Goff. His upside most weeks is
Speaker 1: capped because once they get in the red zone, it's
Speaker 1: just feed feed feed Todd Gurley. The other quarterback that
Speaker 1: really stands out besides Andy Dalton on your rankings this
Speaker 1: week for me is Drew Brees. And I know you
Speaker 1: talked about him as a cell high candidate on yesterday's program.
Speaker 1: You have him outside your QB one day this week.
Speaker 1: He's been one of the best quarterbacks in all the
Speaker 1: fantasy football all year long. I know he's facing the
Speaker 1: Baltimore defense has been pretty good. But why do you
Speaker 1: believe Drew Brees is ranked sixteen this week? Why do
Speaker 1: you haven't ranked sixty? So I actually think maybe this
Speaker 1: is fool's gold for me, But I think I think
Speaker 1: it's a lower scoring affair. I don't know that we
Speaker 1: get this big. You know, I believe the game total
Speaker 1: in this game is fifty points. I don't know that
Speaker 1: we get to that. The Saints defense has actually turned
Speaker 1: a corner here. I don't know if it's a product
Speaker 1: of the teams that they've faced, facing Washington and then
Speaker 1: the Giants, but their defense has turned a corner, their
Speaker 1: past defense has played better, their run defense has been
Speaker 1: phenomenal all season long. So I just don't know that
Speaker 1: we see a lot of points in this game. Obviously,
Speaker 1: the Ravens have been very good against quarterbacks this year,
Speaker 1: and honestly it's just a product of some of these
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks that have just ahead of him having better matchups.
Speaker 1: For example, Baker Mayfield going against Tampa Bay in that
Speaker 1: same game, Joe Flacco is facing the same secondary. If
Speaker 1: there's any way to attack, to attack the Saints, it's
Speaker 1: going to be through the air. So I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: surprised if Joe Flacco gives you to seventy five and two.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be close to being a top twelve UH
Speaker 1: quarterback this week. I just think that the Saints come
Speaker 1: out of the by and they just run the ball Ton.
Speaker 1: I think we get a lot of mark Ingram, a
Speaker 1: lot of Alvin Kamara and the guys that I have
Speaker 1: ranked just ahead of him. I like those matches more.
Speaker 1: Mitchell Drobiski The Truth going up against the Patriots where
Speaker 1: their home dogs. Um, the Patriots are going to score points,
Speaker 1: so they might be playing from behind in that game.
Speaker 1: I just like the matchups of some of those other
Speaker 1: quarterbacks a little bit more than I like Drew Brees
Speaker 1: this week eight four four, eight four, three six, eight
Speaker 1: seven nine. My feeling is Frank and I tell you
Speaker 1: each and every week, you can't put bad players headed
Speaker 1: good players. Like kind of that simple. Drew Brees needs
Speaker 1: to be ahead of Joe Flacco because Joe Flacco is
Speaker 1: not good. Greg. If you had Fantasy football rankings every week,
Speaker 1: you can do whatever you like. That's it. That's all
Speaker 1: you have for me. If I could criticize your rankings,
Speaker 1: you get Look, maybe you're right. We'll find we'll find
Speaker 1: out at the end of that. Can you switch that? No,
Speaker 1: I'm not. Come on, man, the Saints are allowing the
Speaker 1: most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. Can't start Joe Flacco.
Speaker 1: I can't let you do the third most. I can't
Speaker 1: let you do this. You've allowed monster games, Greg, Dude,
Speaker 1: it's Joe Flacco, but he's had a few big games.
Speaker 1: Is here. It's just picking and choosing when those big
Speaker 1: games are gonna come. We like Michael Cradfree's I like
Speaker 1: Willy Sneed this week. Right in the revenge game against
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints, don't you have to like the guy
Speaker 1: throwing them the ball? No? Nope, nothing, nope. All right, Well, look,
Speaker 1: if Drew Brees makes me look stupid this week, I'm
Speaker 1: perfectly fine with that, are you? I think it's I
Speaker 1: think it's a bad matchup in Baltimore. He's not playing
Speaker 1: at home either. The last time he played outdoors, what
Speaker 1: do you do against the Giants? You didn't do anything
Speaker 1: in that game? Right? Fult? What does that mean? If
Speaker 1: it's Sean Payn's fault again and they just run the
Speaker 1: football a lot. They're going on the road to face
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens defense, a great defense, and Drew Brees
Speaker 1: typically does not play better. It does not play as
Speaker 1: well outside than he does inside the dome. If this
Speaker 1: game is in the dome, we're looking at a different scenario.
Speaker 1: It's on the road, it's against Baltimore. Drew Brees got
Speaker 1: shut down by the Giants defense last time they played
Speaker 1: on the road outdoors. You can you can use Drew
Speaker 1: Brees if you want. This week. I'm not. I'm going
Speaker 1: to I don't have many were in fantasy either. This
Speaker 1: is weird any of my season long weeks. This is weird.
Speaker 1: Zoe in yot because oh, because it makes sense, very interesting.
Speaker 1: All right, it's going out back the phone line. It's
Speaker 1: gonna Chris in Chicago, Chris. It's going on in Hey.
Speaker 1: You are you doing doing great? Dude? Pretty good? Um?
Speaker 1: Ten teen PPR. I got Philip rivers to Michael Thomas,
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton, Gary McCaffrey, Burton, And for a flex,
Speaker 1: I got Tevin Coleman or crab Tree, Robinson and Robinson
Speaker 1: or tell your gay girl, how many can you start
Speaker 1: in the flex one? Or was one of these fourslex? Yeah,
Speaker 1: this one, Frank will ask you. It's a PPR not
Speaker 1: be there, it's full ppr uh And it's it's very
Speaker 1: close between Michael Crabtree and Kevin Coleman in my opinion.
Speaker 1: But the Giants have actually allowed a decent number of
Speaker 1: Fantasy point to opposing running backs. This year, we're gonna
Speaker 1: see Tevin Coleman continue to take on that lead dog
Speaker 1: role where he plays about sixty of the snaps and
Speaker 1: gets about, you know, sixty percent of the work. And
Speaker 1: because of that a lean Keevin Coleman. But I do
Speaker 1: think Michael Crabtrey has a great game this week as well.
Speaker 1: I actually maybe the other way. I know, I normally
Speaker 1: lean running back or or do you put Crabtree in
Speaker 1: over Hilton and then used Tevin Coleman over Hilton because
Speaker 1: I think that's a more realistic scenario here. Actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that's actually a really good one with Hilton
Speaker 1: coming back from injury, he facing Tredarius White. I like
Speaker 1: where your heads, That's where I go. I'll go with you.
Speaker 1: I'm in. I like that because I want to play
Speaker 1: Crabtree this week, So I'm in with that one. I
Speaker 1: think it's a good job. I had one more question
Speaker 1: for you, good what's up um? Quarterback? Philip Rivers or Trabinsky?
Speaker 1: I picked him up the dis wavery because Rivers on
Speaker 1: the bind. Next, looking at Frank's rankings over at Road
Speaker 1: to extrast dot Com, it's free, by the way, it
Speaker 1: should be called the best friend ranking whatever the last. Nevertheless,
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers is a top ten quarterback. Mr Drobisky is
Speaker 1: number fourteen, So Frank believes you just are Philip Rivers. Yea.
Speaker 1: This goes back to your theory of using good quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: But the thing is, I just don't trust the Tennessee
Speaker 1: Titans secondary as much as I trust the way that
Speaker 1: the Ravens have played, the way that Drew Brees plays outdoors.
Speaker 1: So there are a few more things playing against Drew Brees.
Speaker 1: But this is the example of Philip Rivers. You know,
Speaker 1: you gotta pick and choose. Greg. This is the example
Speaker 1: of using the good quarterback regardless. I don't think it's
Speaker 1: a scary match to be there against the Titans. There
Speaker 1: you go games in London, am on Sunday morning. Get out. Literally,
Speaker 1: let's go to Friday Lass my way to the jet it.
Speaker 1: What's going on? Guys? Are you doing doing? Great? Man?
Speaker 1: What's happening? I just want to know who to start
Speaker 1: this week? Um, sayce Dalvin Cook is maybe going to play?
Speaker 1: I have Philip Lindsay and carry on Johnson PPR Lindsay
Speaker 1: or carry on Johnson in the PBR Frankie or or
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook, one of those Dalvin Cook plays. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: start Dalvin Cook. Okay, yeah, yeah, what's your other question?
Speaker 1: I agree with Greg. If Dalvin Cook plays, I would
Speaker 1: use him. Awesome. Um, right, receiver questions. Julio Daman, Uh,
Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd. I want to know who who started this week? Yeah,
Speaker 1: another good question. I have both guys ranks very highly.
Speaker 1: I think they're high and wide receiver twos this week.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna stick in that game with the Kansas
Speaker 1: City Chiefs going up against the Bengals, and you're gonna
Speaker 1: use Tyler Boyd just based on how many points I
Speaker 1: think are gonna be scored back and forth there the
Speaker 1: way that he has been used. It's not a knock
Speaker 1: on Edelman because he has gained a lot of targets
Speaker 1: since he's returned, and you just scored a touchdown last
Speaker 1: week as well. I just think Tyler Boyd has a
Speaker 1: safer floor and to be honest, a higher ceiling in
Speaker 1: that matchup. I agree. I completely agree with Frankie And
Speaker 1: with that, we're gonna sign off YouTube for today. Coming
Speaker 1: up next the Fantasy Football Frenzy with the Fantasy executive
Speaker 1: Corey Parson, Chris Ventra, and Jim Dave. If you're listening
Speaker 1: on a podcast, we appreciate if you subscribe two hours show.
Speaker 1: If you give us a like five stars is what
Speaker 1: would need to be rated, and please leave comment if
Speaker 1: you're listening live on the rate, Yo, Well we'll be
Speaker 1: here for the next five or so minutes. And in
Speaker 1: those five or so minutes, Frank, I want to go
Speaker 1: into your tight end rankings. I know we won't have
Speaker 1: time tomorrow given all the start sit stuff we gotta do.
Speaker 1: So inside your tight end rankings. You went off about
Speaker 1: Grunk this week. You still have them rankings. It's not
Speaker 1: three ten hens. Who do you want me to rank
Speaker 1: over him? That's the question for those listening on the radio.
Speaker 1: Frank just gave me a look and a shrunk and
Speaker 1: then says, what do you want you Are you gonna
Speaker 1: rank over him? Rank to You're gonna rank IBN David
Speaker 1: and joke over him? Yeah? Yeah, you probably could. I
Speaker 1: guess if you really wanted to make the case for it.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find anything that really stands out to me. Um,
Speaker 1: something really does to be honest, I mean, does the
Speaker 1: fact that David and Joku rank is it is a
Speaker 1: top five tight end? Does that stand out? Or do
Speaker 1: you think that's adequate? It's fine. I think planes have
Speaker 1: a bay given the lack of resources and weapons in
Speaker 1: Cleveland have This is something we talked about last week. Uh,
Speaker 1: we're both kind of right, I guess because I was
Speaker 1: big on Cameron brad scoring a touchdown, which you did.
Speaker 1: You were very big on Austin Hooper and he had
Speaker 1: a big game as well. Do I have him ranked
Speaker 1: high enough at tight end eight overall? Um? Probably not?
Speaker 1: Actually probably not, especially facing the Giants, And given what
Speaker 1: Virginia told us about Lhama's new Calvin Ridley, were still
Speaker 1: lot sure about. You know, she was more positive on him.
Speaker 1: I think I'd have to have Austin Hooper a bit higher.
Speaker 1: I think i'd have to have like six maybe. Yeah.
Speaker 1: My thinking is that George Kittle has just seen such
Speaker 1: a high target share on that team all season long.
Speaker 1: He has the ability to make big plays as well. Um,
Speaker 1: And the Forty Nights are gonna be trailing in that game,
Speaker 1: so they'll have to throw. And then Trey Burton has
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown in two straight games. The Patriots haven't
Speaker 1: been great against tight ends either, so I think there's
Speaker 1: a pretty good chance he gets in the end zone.
Speaker 1: So that was my thinking. I have Austin Austin Hooper
Speaker 1: at as the eighth ranked tight end, um, So I
Speaker 1: mean you could probably make the argument you can move
Speaker 1: him up a little bit here, I think, especially in DFS,
Speaker 1: though you like him a lot uh some other guys.
Speaker 1: I think C. J Usama is obviously a streamable time
Speaker 1: it end this week going up against the Chiefs, who
Speaker 1: have allowed something like the third or fourth most Fantasy
Speaker 1: points the tight ends this year. His targets have been
Speaker 1: pretty stable, again, very high game total in that game
Speaker 1: Angles and Chiefs. I think Ricky Seals Jones, you know, again,
Speaker 1: it's kind of the David and Joko effect for Ricky
Speaker 1: Seals Jones. He's getting the targets every single week. He
Speaker 1: has a safe target floor. He hasn't he just hasn't
Speaker 1: turned that into a lot of fantasy production this year.
Speaker 1: So if you're hurting, if you're without Jimmy Graham or
Speaker 1: you're without Jared Cook this week and someone dropped Ricky
Speaker 1: Seals Jones, you know you have to figure out I
Speaker 1: want to use them tonight. He's he checks in as
Speaker 1: my tight end fifteen, which is right around that range
Speaker 1: of streamable tight ends. I think so too. I think
Speaker 1: you're right there. You don't really want to streak. I
Speaker 1: think it's kind of the end of the stream maybe
Speaker 1: Cameron breaks the anem of the after that. I mean,
Speaker 1: the dart throws like Vernon Davis, just because he's been
Speaker 1: getting more work, or to touchdown with Alex Smith. They
Speaker 1: kind of have that connection going back to there. I
Speaker 1: think he probably also needs a dart throw one of
Speaker 1: the Rammers sight Ends potentially as well. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I'd rather take a shot on like Jeff Hierman than
Speaker 1: like one of the rams sight Ends, just because he's
Speaker 1: gotten targets the past few weeks. Case Kim is just
Speaker 1: missing him because Case Keenum is missing everybody. Greg, mm hmm, Okay,
Speaker 1: how do you think we seat chat Kelly? I've mentioned
Speaker 1: on the Waiver Show that if you're play in a
Speaker 1: super Flex league, I think it's a very sneaky to
Speaker 1: pick him up tonight before the game because of Case
Speaker 1: Keenum struggles mightily in that first half. I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: surprised if he starts the second half for that team.
Speaker 1: So if you're playing super Flex, you have kind of
Speaker 1: a dead roster spot that you can afford to uh
Speaker 1: to pick up Kelly right now. I think that's something
Speaker 1: I would go out and do. I wouldn't be surprised
Speaker 1: if he's starting uh in Week eight. Make your prediction
Speaker 1: tonight Arizona Cardinals Denver Broncos. What's the spread and you
Speaker 1: got so? The spread as of right now, the Broncos
Speaker 1: are laying one. The Cardinals are home dogs, but it's
Speaker 1: basically a pick him game. I'll take the Arizona Cardinals
Speaker 1: under Van's Joseph on the road against the spread. The
Speaker 1: Broncos are one in nine on those road games. I'll
Speaker 1: take a slight over as well at forty two. Give
Speaker 1: me the Cardinals at home. Here's the prediction for you.
Speaker 1: Not only this case, keenamana make it to this season
Speaker 1: now that dispans Joseph. Do you have to ask me
Speaker 1: that tomorrow. Thank you so much for watching. We'll do
Speaker 1: it all again then, we hope
