Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy pros. This is the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Football Podcast. It is be Joey p Joe Pi's Apia
Speaker 1: and welcome to week eleven on the waiver Wire, of course,
Speaker 1: to help us get all the right players on all
Speaker 1: the right rosters. De Bro, Derek Brown and the King of
Speaker 1: Bros and my Patty Cakes Pat fitz Morris. We have
Speaker 1: a couple teams on by this week, and it was
Speaker 1: another fun week of NFL football. Some odd quarterback play too,
Speaker 1: and by odd, I mean bad. Lots of interceptions, lots
Speaker 1: of guys under two hundred yards. It was ugly in
Speaker 1: those passing streets. It looked like all the best football
Speaker 1: seemed to happen on Thursday night.
Speaker 2: Pat It did soun interesting stat today, Joe about Jared Goff.
Speaker 2: So he threw five interceptions the Lions still won. If
Speaker 2: you had to guess, how many quarterbacks in the Super
Speaker 2: Bowl era have thrown five interceptions in a game and
Speaker 2: still won.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm gonna say one.
Speaker 3: Oh, de Bro, I'm gonna say Jared Goff is the
Speaker 3: only one here.
Speaker 2: You go, Because I believe it or not, Jared Goff
Speaker 2: was the tenth quarterback to be I was shocked by that,
Speaker 2: and hat tipped to the people at Good Morning Football,
Speaker 2: they were the ones who dropped that stat. But you
Speaker 2: would think that while won, five interceptions seriously derails your
Speaker 2: chances of winning the game, and five interceptions would also
Speaker 2: highly increase your chances of getting benched and not being
Speaker 2: around for the end of the game. So yeah, I
Speaker 2: was shocked the number was that significant.
Speaker 1: I think that is the more interesting point, right there,
Speaker 1: Guys under two hundred yards yesterday. Let's see Russell Wilson,
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, Drake may will Levs, Justin Herbert, Aaron Rodgers,
Speaker 1: Nice Young Caleb Williams, Baker Mayfield, Mac Jones, Cooper Rush.
Speaker 1: I don't think I need to go any further, but yeah,
Speaker 1: it was not a great day for passing the football.
Speaker 1: But that's okay everybody, because we press on and hopefully
Speaker 1: week eleven we'll get a little bit more through the
Speaker 1: air and certainly some more on the ground. Before we
Speaker 1: get to the names to add and the waiver wire

Speaker 1: wire pickup of the week. A guy that we talked
Speaker 1: about last week who was not available on a bye right,
Speaker 1: but we said, hey, good time to add some people here.
Speaker 1: See what you get and guess what, the roster percentage
Speaker 1: did not move that much. He is just fifty four
Speaker 1: percent rostered. He was back yesterday fourteen rushes, sixty six yards,
Speaker 1: two catches for twenty nine. He is Jalen Warren of
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now, looking at Jalen Warren's schedule ahead, boys,
Speaker 1: the reason why I was putting him at the top
Speaker 1: of the list for me personally is I look at
Speaker 1: some of these games ahead for the Steelers and I
Speaker 1: know they're three and o with Russell Wilson. They're flying high.
Speaker 1: Big win in Washington, you get Baltimore, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Cleveland again,
Speaker 1: Philly and Baltimore again. That's a lot of defenses you
Speaker 1: can throw the football against. And he's also passed the
Speaker 1: by now, which with weeks twelve and fourteen looming in
Speaker 1: the near future, to me, that's a very valuable flex
Speaker 1: slash RB two.
Speaker 2: To have pat and Najie Harris to stay in some
Speaker 2: sort of ankle injury yesterday, So that's going to enhance
Speaker 2: Jalen Warren's role, you would think, at least for this
Speaker 2: coming week. Certainly Corderol Patterson will help take up some
Speaker 2: of the slack two. But you know, the Ravens are
Speaker 2: a difficult matchup in the running game, not so much
Speaker 2: in the passing game for running backs. They do really
Speaker 2: give it up to pass catching rbs, and maybe more
Speaker 2: so this coming week because they lost Kyle Hamilton to
Speaker 2: an ankle injury and that Thursday night game Hamilton was
Speaker 2: a big part of their pass defense against running backs.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, this is certainly a pretty bright
Speaker 2: usage outlook I would say for Jalen Warren this week.
Speaker 2: And I know he's not available in every league, but
Speaker 2: if he is available in your league, you know, even
Speaker 2: if it's a shallow ten team league, I think he's
Speaker 2: worth string and maybe.
Speaker 1: You know, flexing even in a shallow league this week. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I know on some of the other you know, football
Speaker 1: services like Yahoo and some other places, that ross percent
Speaker 1: is a little less again, especially coming off the buy
Speaker 1: and check your league too, because a lot of people
Speaker 1: had a lot of injuries this week where they had
Speaker 1: to make these hard decisions like well, I need somebody
Speaker 1: to stream right now when Jalen Warren isn't one of
Speaker 1: those guys, so I need to drop him to pick
Speaker 1: up somebody else that circumstance might be out there. He
Speaker 1: also might be some you know, a piece you could
Speaker 1: be re acquiring a trade too, But Warren a piece
Speaker 1: where I think you see that role continue to grow
Speaker 1: a little bit. And you know, as they added Mike Williams,
Speaker 1: we'll talk a little bit more about him. You know,
Speaker 1: certainly the offense is starting to open up a little
Speaker 1: bit here and that's also a good thing for Jalen
Speaker 1: Warren's future here. But Deebro, I want to get your
Speaker 1: take on Warren. I know, a player that you're historically
Speaker 1: high on and what his role might be here down
Speaker 1: the stretch.
Speaker 3: Yeh In he's a weekly flex play with RB two
Speaker 3: upside if he gets in the end zone. Like last week,
Speaker 3: look at the stat line that he had, guys, and
Speaker 3: that was with Naji playing that type of stat line.
Speaker 3: You had a touchdown on top of that we're talking about.
Speaker 3: He walks away as an RB two for the week.
Speaker 3: So this is agnostic of he needs to be a
Speaker 3: major pickup for people if he's out there, So scour
Speaker 3: all your leagues see where he's at, and if he's not,
Speaker 3: then try to get him included in a trade because
Speaker 3: the deadline's coming up. Because yeah, he's an RB three weekly,
Speaker 3: he's an RB two if he ever scores a touchdown,
Speaker 3: and if Nause is out for any amount of time,
Speaker 3: he's an RB two with RB one upside.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then that would be the huge thing there.
Speaker 1: I just keep on back to the schedule too. I
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of good matchups where the game
Speaker 1: script might suggest either higher totals or working from behind
Speaker 1: a little bit, and some of that doesn't necessarily favor
Speaker 1: a Nause either health or no health. There. So before
Speaker 1: we get to the other rbs we like in Week eleven,
Speaker 1: the one thing we like to do is bet touchdowns
Speaker 1: around here. Ooh, it was a good week for Joey
Speaker 1: p vacation and betting were a good combination for me.
Speaker 1: I feel refreshed. The pockets are full now. I didn't
Speaker 1: get to pay for all the butter beer that I
Speaker 1: drank with all my but we're getting closer and the

Speaker 1: There was a guy who was fighting for the crown
Speaker 1: of Waiver Wire out of the Week for Week eleven.
Speaker 1: He felt a little short. We had a little debate
Speaker 1: about it before the show. Now we're gonna have a
Speaker 1: little debate on the show. Audrick Estime of the Denver
Speaker 1: Broncos just seven percent rostered. We've been hearing increased workload,
Speaker 1: increased workload. Things were gonna go a little bit better
Speaker 1: for him. And then this week against the Chiefs, a
Speaker 1: very tough run defense. Audrich Estim really kind of was
Speaker 1: the guy. Now, Javonte Williams isn't gone, He is not out.
Speaker 1: There's nothing like that. So Debro the schedule also good
Speaker 1: for him. But for me, the big deciding factor between
Speaker 1: Estimate and Warren, if they are both available in your league,
Speaker 1: is one's already passed his buy and one in Jalen
Speaker 1: Warren passed the by and you kind of know what
Speaker 1: his role is in the offense. It's still some ifs
Speaker 1: for me, although estime, I think is going to be
Speaker 1: bit on very aggressively, especially by teams that need RB help.
Speaker 1: So give me your take on estimate what you saw
Speaker 1: yesterday and what you think you're gonna see from him
Speaker 1: in these next few weeks.
Speaker 3: I mean, right now, he's an RB three like flex
Speaker 3: play looking at the role that he got last week,
Speaker 3: playing forty six percent of the snaps, he ran eight routes.
Speaker 3: Javonte still ran ten, So this wasn't a full takeover
Speaker 3: the backfield, but it was pretty damn close to it.
Speaker 1: He got all the short.
Speaker 3: Yardage work, finishing with fourteen carries and fifty three rushing yards.
Speaker 3: I mean, if he's going to be the early down
Speaker 3: hammer for Denver's offense, I really like him. And I
Speaker 3: know we were talking about this like before the show,
Speaker 3: and I was, I mean really kind of like pounding
Speaker 3: the table for him because the schedule upcoming man is
Speaker 3: fantastic and he's out there in so many different leagues
Speaker 3: that yeah, I mean, he could be a plug and
Speaker 3: play RB two down the stretch, Like, are you tell
Speaker 3: me this guys.
Speaker 1: You're so excited there for a second. You actually I
Speaker 1: know myself, I just myself. Okay for a little temperature checker, right, Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: I don't want you to get too excited. He's got
Speaker 1: a lie of show left to do, That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Look at this schedule, Okay, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Cleveland, and Indy.
Speaker 1: Are you scared of any of those run defenses? Guys?
Speaker 3: Are Do we think the Denver's run it like their
Speaker 3: defense is going to put them in positive gamescripts? Those
Speaker 3: are all good matchups.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the Denver Broncos have exceeded. I think a
Speaker 1: lot of people's expectations, especially early on, things were a
Speaker 1: little rough there. Uh. Pat, I don't know if you're
Speaker 1: quite as six to midnight as Derek Brown is on
Speaker 1: audric Est to May. But are you of that same
Speaker 1: mind in terms of aggression, Cause let's talk about it, like,
Speaker 1: is this a player that you are? You know you're
Speaker 1: looking at the stretch run here, You're emptying the clip
Speaker 1: on this guy, because hey, if he does take over
Speaker 1: that number one role in that backfield, this could be
Speaker 1: a huge difference maker between making or missing the playoffs.
Speaker 2: I don't think that Odric Estimae is a gift from
Speaker 2: the fantasy gods. Like Tyrone Tracy was a guy who
Speaker 2: you need to have in your lineup everywhere. Tyrone Tracy
Speaker 2: is there for sure. I don't know if Audric Estime
Speaker 2: is going to quite reach that threshold of fantasy value,
Speaker 2: but it does look like he has taken over as
Speaker 2: the early down back. He outsnapped Javonte Williams twenty six
Speaker 2: to sixteen on Sunday, and I carried him fourteen to one.
Speaker 2: And you would think Javonte and possibly Julia McLoughlin won't
Speaker 2: disappear completely because the running backs as pass catchers have
Speaker 2: always been so essential to the Sean Payton offense, although
Speaker 2: maybe a little less so this year simply because bo
Speaker 2: Nicks scrambles and scrambling quarterbacks check down to their running
Speaker 2: backs less, and obviously bo Nicks is a lot more
Speaker 2: mobile than Drew Brees used to be. So I don't
Speaker 2: think Javante and McLoughlin are going to disappear completely, but
Speaker 2: there is still a lot of value to having a
Speaker 2: thumper like Oudric estimated boy, he is a thumper. That
Speaker 2: final college season at Notre Dame thirteen hundred rushing yards,
Speaker 2: eighteen touchdown runs. This guy knows what to do when
Speaker 2: he gets inside the five yard line. So that's got
Speaker 2: a lot of appeal. And you know, Joe, some people
Speaker 2: are really up against it at running back with the
Speaker 2: bye weeks. I know in one league where I didn't
Speaker 2: have Brian Robinson this week, I just start Blake Koram
Speaker 2: in a league this week. So if you're in a
Speaker 2: position like that, yes, I would have loved to have
Speaker 2: Audric Estimee chiming in with what he gave me versus
Speaker 2: what I expect to get from Blake Koram on Monday night.
Speaker 1: There's another guy, And I'm glad we have all these
Speaker 1: running backs to talk about because it's been kind of rough,
Speaker 1: like last week was not a great weekday adding running backs.
Speaker 1: But this week seems much better. Trey Benson, I want
Speaker 1: to talk about him for a second. He is available
Speaker 1: in seventy five percent of leagues right now. Over on
Speaker 1: sleeper Benson rush the ball ten times for sixty two,
Speaker 1: caught two passes for twenty five. James Connor wasn't really efficient,
Speaker 1: right He had just two point eight yards per carry
Speaker 1: on Sunday, So Benson was finding a little bit more
Speaker 1: success against the Jets defense, which we've heard a lot
Speaker 1: of tales about how good it is. So Benson seems
Speaker 1: like another guy too that you talk about the stuff
Speaker 1: in a cuff and season we're getting very close. Now
Speaker 1: we're in we'll see the eleventh of November as of
Speaker 1: recording is Benson seems like a guy there should be
Speaker 1: rostered in a higher percentage than he is if something
Speaker 1: should happen to James Connor, or if James Connor might
Speaker 1: be running out of gas at this juncture in the
Speaker 1: season too, because as a guy who has missed some time, historically,
Speaker 1: full seasons in James Connor don't always go together. So
Speaker 1: I'm not sure exactly what the future holes for Trey Benson,
Speaker 1: but Patt, it seems like that ross percentage, just on
Speaker 1: principle should be higher by now.
Speaker 2: High end handcuff Trey Benson should be considered, and I
Speaker 2: don't think their standalone value. Although this was not entirely
Speaker 2: garbage time production in the Cardinals decisive win over the Jets,
Speaker 2: there was some of that, but I think they do
Speaker 2: sort of want to spell James Connor a little bit
Speaker 2: since he's an older back with as you mentioned, Joe
Speaker 2: that extensive injury history, so makes sense to not, you know,
Speaker 2: work James Connor for twenty five touches every week. And
Speaker 2: earlier in the season there was some ambiguity about who
Speaker 2: actually was the backup because Imari di Mercato was either
Speaker 2: playing ahead of Benson or sort of splitting the backup
Speaker 2: duty with him. I think I think now Benson is
Speaker 2: the guy. Like they still give de Mercado a few snaps,
Speaker 2: but it's pretty much the Trey Benson show behind James conn.
Speaker 1: And they are the first place Cardinals. This is a
Speaker 1: team that right now has designs. You know, when I
Speaker 1: did the on the Playoffs, when I did the Black
Speaker 1: Book this year, we talked about the offensive ecosystems and
Speaker 1: I was looking for the outlier, and the one outlier
Speaker 1: to me that the team that didn't have all the
Speaker 1: right pieces necessarily but could outperform was the Cardinals, and
Speaker 1: so far they have. Benson was also deebro the guy
Speaker 1: that I remember Ladanian Tomlinson talking on an interview and
Speaker 1: he circled him as that was his favorite back and
Speaker 1: I always listen little things like that kind of you know,
Speaker 1: percolate in my head when I hear somebody of greatness
Speaker 1: see somebody and give you a take on them because
Speaker 1: they know what it looks like. I don't know what
Speaker 1: the future holds for this player long term, but when
Speaker 1: greatness says that guy is one to watch, I want
Speaker 1: to listen and want to keep that in my back pocket.
Speaker 1: Is Benson a guy you want the back pocket a
Speaker 1: year roster? Oh?
Speaker 3: Absolutely, He's a high end handcuff And like we've talked
Speaker 3: about the the show plenty of times, we've reached the
Speaker 3: point of the season where you need to be insulating
Speaker 3: rosters with high end handcuffs. Yeah, as far as like
Speaker 3: handcuffing your own running backs if you have the bench
Speaker 3: space and stuff. And I mean, if anything happens to
Speaker 3: James Connor, Trey Benson's league winner. Looking at his schedule
Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks, the Vikings, Seahawks, Patriots, Panthers, and Rams, there
Speaker 3: isn't a team left on that schedule that you can't
Speaker 3: run the ball against. And Trey Benson would be getting
Speaker 3: workhorse opportunity now.
Speaker 1: Speaking to run the ball, the Chargers like to run
Speaker 1: the ball. Gus Edwards came back and Gus Edwards got
Speaker 1: a lot more work than I think a lot of
Speaker 1: us might have thought. Ten carries for fifty five yards
Speaker 1: looked fresh, which is good because Dobbins has looked not
Speaker 1: so fresh. I would say in the last couple of
Speaker 1: games he is only nineteen percent roster. Would you put
Speaker 1: him in this whole? You know, like, hey, you could
Speaker 1: do worse than Gus Edwards in these next couple of
Speaker 1: weeks if you have to flex him and he's going
Speaker 1: to get some work because of the style of this offense.
Speaker 3: Hebro Yeah, I think he falls into he's a little
Speaker 3: bit lower than these other guys only because we know
Speaker 3: that Gus Edwards is not going to get passing now
Speaker 3: work and this backfield would be split up. So I
Speaker 3: think there's a division of tiers for these guys, and
Speaker 3: I think Gus is like that second or third tier
Speaker 3: kind of guy only because we know those are limitations
Speaker 3: and full stop limitations to his game. So the upside
Speaker 3: is kind of capped. But to that point, Joe, like,
Speaker 3: I mean, over the next few weeks, the Bengals Baltimore, Atlanta,
Speaker 3: Kansas City, Tampa Bay, there are matchups in there where
Speaker 3: the Charges wan to run the ball they can.
Speaker 1: So Dobbins just to be clear too, really good game
Speaker 1: against Cleveland. Then this past week against Tennessee fifteen for fifty,
Speaker 1: So the arts per carry we're down a little bit
Speaker 1: three point three. So the outlier seems like that Cleveland game,
Speaker 1: PAP because before that you had three point four against
Speaker 1: New Orleans, you had two point nine against Arizona and
Speaker 1: three point eight. Like Dobbins really, you know, he had
Speaker 1: some big explosive games to open the season in Week one.
Speaker 1: In Week two, then's kind of been a little up
Speaker 1: and down. I know the Cleveland game was a good
Speaker 1: one most recently, but if you look at the month,
Speaker 1: you know, work load, it's been a little spotty. Can
Speaker 1: Edwards eat into that and is that also gonna hurt
Speaker 1: JK Dobbins down the stretch run From a fancy perspective.
Speaker 2: I think that's mostly the effect here, Joe. It's more
Speaker 2: about what he does to JK. Dobbins value than about
Speaker 2: really creating a lot of fantasy value on his own.
Speaker 2: I just what I worry about is that Dobbins still
Speaker 2: out snapped Gus Edwards thirty nine to fourteen this past week,
Speaker 2: but gust had ten carries on fourteen snaps. When he
Speaker 2: was in the game, they were handing him the ball,
Speaker 2: so maybe that continues. But as Debro mentioned, like, there
Speaker 2: is not a lot of pass catching upside here, and
Speaker 2: I maybe worry about that schedule a little more than
Speaker 2: Debro does for a guy who doesn't catch passes out
Speaker 2: of the backfield. The Ravens aren't a good matchup, and
Speaker 2: we know the Chiefs aren't a good matchup for any
Speaker 2: running back, even Derrick Henry. So two of their next
Speaker 2: let's see three matchups are pretty terrifying. So that would
Speaker 2: kind of throw a little cold water that and the
Speaker 2: snap count. I guess that's the reason I'm not ready
Speaker 2: to drop a lot of money on Gus Edwards in
Speaker 2: waivers this week?
Speaker 3: Are you ring that point at Like it's the Bengals,
Speaker 3: the Falcons and the Buccaneers, I'd be looking at his
Speaker 3: plush rushing matchups for Edwards, I'd be staying away with
Speaker 3: the other ones.
Speaker 1: Just to clarify, you have to make some room on
Speaker 1: rosters if you're gonna add anybody like Benson or Estimate
Speaker 1: or Warren Jordan Mason one carry for five yards. Pat
Speaker 1: you saw McCaffrey yesterday. I know he's the insurance policy,
Speaker 1: so maybe if you have McCaffrey, he's still a keep.
Speaker 1: But if you don't, do you drop him and chase
Speaker 1: some of these guys on the wire?
Speaker 2: Oh man, look, I know some people are in shallow
Speaker 2: bench leagues show where they've got like four bench spots.
Speaker 2: In that case, yes, but otherwise I don't know. Man,
Speaker 2: this is arguably the most valuable handcuff running back in
Speaker 2: the game, and he's handcuffed to a guy who's been
Speaker 2: flying around to Germany for weird medical procedures. So I
Speaker 2: kind of don't want to give up on that.
Speaker 1: That is the trick. I know a lot of this
Speaker 1: is very circumstantial when it comes to Mason, but you
Speaker 1: see the injury a couple of weeks ago, the disappointment there,
Speaker 1: and then the bye week, and now the one carry
Speaker 1: for five yards. People are gonna be looking at that,
Speaker 1: and I think the reaction is going to be, Okay,
Speaker 1: it's over, it's done, Debro. Do you want to pump
Speaker 1: the brakes on that or do you want to move
Speaker 1: on and just keep chasing the next that can help you?
Speaker 1: Because again week twelve, Week fourteen, you're gonna need some
Speaker 1: live bodies, and if Jordan Mason's getting one carry, that's
Speaker 1: not a body you can use.
Speaker 3: I think it depends on how you're viewing Mason versus
Speaker 3: these other guys. Would I drop Mason for Estimate or Warren?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 3: Would I drop him for these other guys like Trey Benson, No,
Speaker 3: because I feel like it's the same conversation. And then
Speaker 3: it comes down to which offense do I want to
Speaker 3: dive into more? Do I want the high end handcuff
Speaker 3: if either one of these guys go down, Do I
Speaker 3: want to be part of the forty.
Speaker 1: Nine ers offense or the Cardinals? I think we'd all
Speaker 1: say the forty nine ers. All right, let's get to
Speaker 1: the wide receivers before we do. If you're looking to
Speaker 1: experience live action sports, or if you're looking to go
Speaker 1: to live music events, concerts, comedy shows, you name it,
Speaker 1: the best way to do it is to use the
Speaker 1: game Time app because game Time makes ticket buying easy,
Speaker 1: and it's one of the most annoying things in the
Speaker 1: planet and ticket for me, somebody who goes to a
Speaker 1: ton of concerts every year, I've gone to eight concerts
Speaker 1: this year and I got another WWE event day after Christmas,
Speaker 1: I was at WrestleMania for two nights in Philly. I'm
Speaker 1: the guy at the live event. So when I'm telling
Speaker 1: you ticket buying is a pain in the rear end,
Speaker 1: it is. And the thing I love about game Time
Speaker 1: the most is it's got all of these great features
Speaker 1: like the super Deal. It's got great features like you're
Speaker 1: viewing the seats before you actually buy the tickets, and
Speaker 1: they've got the lowest price, guaranteed event cancelation protection, all
Speaker 1: that stuff there that could really burn you when it
Speaker 1: comes to tickets, game Time makes it easier. So if
Speaker 1: you want to experience live college football, live NFL, if
Speaker 1: you want experience live NBA, you name it, they have
Speaker 1: got tickets available. So take the guesswork out of buying
Speaker 1: tickets with the game Time picks down. Load game Time app,

Speaker 1: Tom is it? It's game Time all right, let's get
Speaker 1: to the wide receivers. And I got to start with
Speaker 1: the trap of the week here. I mean, I just
Speaker 1: got to because when a guy has three catches and
Speaker 1: two of them are for touchdowns from Derek Carr and
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints, it feels like a trap. It
Speaker 1: feels like I am just standing over a rug and
Speaker 1: there really is nothing under there, and it's going to
Speaker 1: be a very Looney Tunes moment where my feet kind
Speaker 1: of moved like this a little bit real quick, and
Speaker 1: then I just plummet to my demise Marquez Valdez scantling debro.
Speaker 1: Is he a trap? Or is he the only live
Speaker 1: body left in New Orleans? You make the call. Can
Speaker 1: the answer be yes to both? It can? It can mean?
Speaker 1: I mean, that's fair. That's what gave me light pause
Speaker 1: is saying, well, he's a trap because it's MVS and
Speaker 1: we know the history of MVS is and ury. Yet
Speaker 1: at the same time, who else is there? I don't
Speaker 1: expect the Lobbie back anytime soon, if at all.
Speaker 3: No, and that's the thing with MBS is that is
Speaker 3: he a trap in the sense that should we expect
Speaker 3: these type of stat lines, which was to be honest, guys,
Speaker 3: this was the most MVS type of box score ever,
Speaker 3: only three targets. He goes for over a buck and
Speaker 3: gets too toud easy. Yeah, so just crazy expecting that
Speaker 3: type of output. Obviously nobody should be doing that. But
Speaker 3: in the terms of are a lot of people gonna
Speaker 3: say immediately like we're saying on this show and say
Speaker 3: oh it's MBS no, then you're probably gonna get him
Speaker 3: for cheaper than when a lot of people think. And
Speaker 3: he is one of the only like warm bodies left
Speaker 3: of the room to catch passes. And we have seen
Speaker 3: this offense, I mean function at a decent level. I
Speaker 3: know weeks one and two feels so far away and
Speaker 3: I'm not saying that's coming back, but he's competing with
Speaker 3: targets for.
Speaker 1: Who moving forward? Well, next two matchups, so yeah, Browns
Speaker 1: and the Rams yep.
Speaker 3: Now, I mean the other thing about it is if
Speaker 3: you wanted to draw up a good script for NBS
Speaker 3: to I'm not gonna say reproduce this type of stat line,
Speaker 3: but to stay fantasy relevant and as a high end
Speaker 3: flex play, it's against the Browns and Rams, who are
Speaker 3: both bottom six as far as deep passing yards allowed.
Speaker 3: So again, if they suck versus deep passing play MBS. Okay, well,
Speaker 3: the next two matchups qualify Pat.
Speaker 1: Here's my only other problem with that is too Yeah
Speaker 1: he's got Cleveland, Yeah he's got the Rams, but in
Speaker 1: between he's got a buy. So you're looking at the
Speaker 1: stat line here in week nine against Carolina, one catch
Speaker 1: on one target for five yards, and then yesterday three
Speaker 1: catches on three targets for one on nine and two touchdowns.
Speaker 1: Like it is is very possible you get those two
Speaker 1: catches for ten yards in this upcoming week. It happens,
Speaker 1: and then he's useless to the next week to you
Speaker 1: on the by, So is MVS a trap or like
Speaker 1: Deebro's maybe suggesting, maybe people just don't even want to
Speaker 1: deal with it, and you can get him for a
Speaker 1: couple bucks, drive him this week and then churn a bird.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is very much. It depends on the texture
Speaker 2: of your league. I know you guys like me play
Speaker 2: in some leagues where it's like fourteen teams and like
Speaker 2: three flex spots, And in a league like that, you
Speaker 2: can afford to take a chance on a guy, a
Speaker 2: high upside guy like MVS who probably has not put
Speaker 2: up his last big stat line of the year, considering
Speaker 2: the depleted state of the Saints wide receiver corps right now.
Speaker 2: But we also know that MVS is going to throw
Speaker 2: up some air balls, like there are gonna be some
Speaker 2: one catch for five yard games. So that level of
Speaker 2: volatility you can maybe take in a league where you
Speaker 2: have to start ten or eleven players every week and
Speaker 2: there are a lot of teams. But if you're in
Speaker 2: a ten person or a twelve person league with shallow benches,
Speaker 2: I don't think you want to get into the MVS business.
Speaker 1: All right, fair enough, there are some guys we got
Speaker 1: to talk about getting into the business out Alec Pierce
Speaker 1: and ad Mitchell, two guys from the Indianapolis Colts. I
Speaker 1: know Pittman having his issues too, so that opened up
Speaker 1: some here in the passing game. Pat Pierce is sixteen
Speaker 1: percent rostered. Ady Mitchell same thing in that same range,
Speaker 1: sixteen percent fifteen percent rostered. So your thoughts on these
Speaker 1: two cults wide receivers. I feel like every week we're
Speaker 1: having some kind of cult wide receiver conversation on this show,
Speaker 1: and that just kind of speaks to the inconsistency of
Speaker 1: this offense. But where are you out with those two guys?
Speaker 2: And may be a little bit more interested in pierce
Speaker 2: seven targets on Joe Flacco's thirty five throws yesterday, so
Speaker 2: and they're obviously high value targets for Alec Pierce, who
Speaker 2: runs deep routes. The thing is with with both Pierce
Speaker 2: and Mitchell, there are two future events that could greatly
Speaker 2: devalue both guys. One is the return of Michael Pittman Junior,
Speaker 2: which probably is inevitable pretty soon. The other is the
Speaker 2: reinsertion of Anthony Richardson at quarterback, which I also think
Speaker 2: is pretty inevitable because Joe Flacco is not taking them
Speaker 2: on any sort of playoff draft. We're seeing the problem
Speaker 2: with Joe Flacco, like he throws way too many Yola
Speaker 2: balls and gets intercepted and sacked a lot, and those
Speaker 2: are just drive killers. And we're gonna see Richardson return
Speaker 2: at some point. And when Pittman is back and Richardson
Speaker 2: is at quarterback, Pearson and and I Mitchell are simply
Speaker 2: unplayable in fantasy.
Speaker 1: Well, I guess that's the question too, is like when
Speaker 1: do we see Richardson back? Because you have the Jets
Speaker 1: up next for Flacco and the Colts Detroit, New England
Speaker 1: and the bye. So do we see him before or
Speaker 1: after that? Buye Debro. I think it's after the bye.
Speaker 3: I think that the Colts are not done taking their
Speaker 3: medicine and apparently they need really really big spoonfuls of it.
Speaker 3: And you know, enjoy the locker room, enjoy the non playoffs,
Speaker 3: enjoy the Joe Flacco show.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, here's the thing. You go two and
Speaker 1: three in those three games, and then you have the buye.
Speaker 1: You're very much alive in the AFC playoff hunt. But
Speaker 1: they're not and they didn't well they haven't played them.
Speaker 1: They're not going yet's they're probably gonna lose to the
Speaker 1: Lions and they're not going. But you could beat the Jets,
Speaker 1: and I think we all know you could beat the
Speaker 1: Jets and the Ingle Patriots. Joe Lecco, he can. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know my new Ingle Patriots won again this week,
Speaker 1: upset special Ding ding Ding.
Speaker 2: Let's go, trust me, Joe, They've they've upset some people
Speaker 2: here in Chicago. I can assure you.
Speaker 1: Oh man, let me tell you that was that was
Speaker 1: so easy to get. If you're missing it, make sure
Speaker 1: you're watching betting pros because Ericson and I circled that
Speaker 1: game on the look Ahead Show on Monday last Monday,
Speaker 1: and we were like, look, Patriots a cover seven points?
Speaker 1: What he crazy? And it went to six. You know,
Speaker 1: as the week went on and you know, a certain
Speaker 1: point of like, let's just take him to win outright
Speaker 1: at this point, and what do you know? They did
Speaker 1: it again. Give Drake made some weapons, folks, please, for
Speaker 1: the love of God, all right, two more guys talk
Speaker 1: about Ricky Pearsall, who I gotta say this was the
Speaker 1: most surprising one to me. I thought Pearsall might be
Speaker 1: a guy that would fade away Dee bro. He did
Speaker 1: not fifty five percent rostered. He was a part of
Speaker 1: this plan yesterday. That was a little surprising to me.
Speaker 1: With McCaffrey back, with Debo on the field and Jennings
Speaker 1: on the field, like Pearsall being a thing. Is that
Speaker 1: something that you think is sustainable.
Speaker 3: I think it's sustainable in the sense of I mean,
Speaker 3: he got a sixteen percent target share, he had the
Speaker 3: big play that he ripped off, got the seventy three
Speaker 3: receiving yards, So I think his role in the offense
Speaker 3: is sustainable. But the thing I want to talk about
Speaker 3: here with Pearsall is the contingent upside, because we know
Speaker 3: the talent is there, the draft pedigree, he's had time
Speaker 3: to now assimilate to the offense. Now we have a
Speaker 3: game where we've actually seen him flash the talent that
Speaker 3: we all know that he has. And if Kittle, who's
Speaker 3: never been a picture of health or debo or oh
Speaker 3: Chris McCaffrey misses any time, the Pearsall's position in this
Speaker 3: target pecking order is going to do nothing but go up.
Speaker 3: And the matchups are pretty good going forward. I mean
Speaker 3: like Seattle, yes please, Green Bay has been up and
Speaker 3: down as a pass defense, and Buffalo understand is tough,
Speaker 3: but again you're gonna have to put up points and
Speaker 3: throw the freaking ball. So Piersaw is a guy that
Speaker 3: I want on rosters. I think three to five percent
Speaker 3: we'll probably get him if you don't already have him rostered.
Speaker 3: And it's not only does he have that type of appeal. Again,
Speaker 3: what if anything happens to Juwan Jennings.
Speaker 1: He's been in and out of the lineup this year.
Speaker 3: So either way anyway this goes, we know the floor
Speaker 3: of Pearsaw, which we just saw kind of like this
Speaker 3: last week. But the upside could be immense, and that
Speaker 3: contingent value is something I want to bet on down
Speaker 3: the stretch.
Speaker 1: Do you think Piersall has upside?
Speaker 2: Deebro makes a great point about the contingent upside and
Speaker 2: how his value could increase with an injury to anyone
Speaker 2: else here. The only thing is as far as playing
Speaker 2: him in Week eleven, I worry that he's probably only
Speaker 2: going to play about two thirds of the offensive snaps.
Speaker 2: That's kind of his ceiling since the forty nine ers
Speaker 2: don't play, they play less three wide than most teams,
Speaker 2: and he's surrounded by other good pass catchers. Debo Jennings,
Speaker 2: kid All McCaffrey. So I think I'm gonna have Pierce
Speaker 2: All rank like in the forties item outside the top
Speaker 2: fifty this past week, and he made one big play
Speaker 2: and made that look bad. I'll probably have him in
Speaker 2: the forties this week. Like, I just can't rank him
Speaker 2: any higher based on his environment right now. But as
Speaker 2: Debro said, one injury could make his environment a lot more.
Speaker 2: I don't know how it will look a lot better
Speaker 2: and give him a lot of fantasy value.
Speaker 1: Debro who has more disdain for kickers, me or Deebo
Speaker 1: Samuel Holder. It was the holder he grabbed. He grabbed
Speaker 1: the Holder and then at the same time turned around
Speaker 1: and smacked Moody too, like he kind of did like
Speaker 1: he kind of did the double, which was can I
Speaker 1: say it's equal? I fly, I'll accept that. Mike Williams
Speaker 1: twenty rostered. We talked about it last week on the show.
Speaker 1: He said, Hey, he's out there floating around on the
Speaker 1: bye week, you know, after the trade deadline, and Deeber
Speaker 1: and I on the Tuesday show when the trade deadline happened,
Speaker 1: he said, Hey, Mike Williams are probably gonna throw up
Speaker 1: the ball and Mike Williams will go get it, and
Speaker 1: he did. Pat, It's not something again you want to chase.
Speaker 1: So who would you rather have rest of season? Mike
Speaker 1: Williams or Marquez Valdis game Like go.
Speaker 2: Mike Williams. Okay, Mike Williams christ Yeah, like great, the
Speaker 2: higher pedigree. He's given us a couple of thousand yard seasons,
Speaker 2: he's given us a ten touchdown season. I thought it
Speaker 2: was really weird that the Steelers went out and got
Speaker 2: a guy whose style is so similar to that of
Speaker 2: George Pickens, Like these are both.
Speaker 1: These big, but that's all Russell Wilson's giving you, broo
Speaker 1: guys throwing the balls like he's that. I know the Steelers.
Speaker 2: He's down there somewhere the Steelers offensive formula. Run the
Speaker 2: crap out of the ball and use play action to
Speaker 2: hit these chuck plays downfield, like it is a wild,
Speaker 2: old school nineteen seventies offense.
Speaker 1: But I just don't know why fields can't fields can
Speaker 1: do the same thing. I just think he's afraid to
Speaker 1: do that because he's like, this doesn't feel like a
Speaker 1: good idea. But but with fields, not only could he
Speaker 1: do all that I feel like, but he could also
Speaker 1: give you that element of running the football. But I
Speaker 1: don't know, man, Russell Wilson's three and O, what do
Speaker 1: I know? De bro Mike Williams a MVS for you.
Speaker 3: Oh, it's big, Mike, And I think you're gonna have
Speaker 3: to pay, you know, around the same amount. I mean,
Speaker 3: I think you can probably get Mike Williams for two
Speaker 3: to three percent of your fab considering you know, we're
Speaker 3: all looking at the fact that he only played nine snaps,
Speaker 3: ran seven routes, and people are gonna say, well, I'm
Speaker 3: not chasing that.
Speaker 1: But we talked about this on.
Speaker 3: The live stream, Joey, and I'll bring it up again here.
Speaker 3: Like the upcoming schedule is fantastic for Mike Williams. Like
Speaker 3: he's probably not gonna play a full time role against Baltimore,
Speaker 3: but maybe that might not matter if he plays fifty
Speaker 3: percent of the snaps and gets like.
Speaker 1: Two deep targets.
Speaker 3: But the rest of the season's schedule looks really good, man,
Speaker 3: Like Cleveland is not a pass defense that we should
Speaker 3: fear anymore.
Speaker 1: They play them twice. Same with the Bengals.
Speaker 3: Okay, the Eagles are extremely tough, but then they get
Speaker 3: the Ravens and they get the Chiefs again, so they're
Speaker 3: gonna have to throw the ball and put up points.
Speaker 1: So yeah, like.
Speaker 3: Pat Hit, the name on the head design of this
Speaker 3: offense is russ Run, Run, Run, Run. Russell says, Eh,
Speaker 3: he's down.
Speaker 1: There somewhere there he goes throw it. Coming back from
Speaker 1: bye weeks. These guys who might be floating around your
Speaker 1: waiver wire, Elijah Moore and Jerry Judy of the Cleveland
Speaker 1: Browns more rostered in sixteen percent of leagues. Judy much
Speaker 1: higher about sixty two. But again, you have a lot
Speaker 1: of people making hard decisions last week at the last minute,
Speaker 1: so check your waiver wire. Also on a bye Jalen
Speaker 1: Coker this week of the Carolina Panthers, another guy you
Speaker 1: might be to slip in that waiver wire when you're
Speaker 1: looking ahead to weeks twelve and fourteen. Maybe you got
Speaker 1: to drop this week Jalen Tolbert, a player that we
Speaker 1: had some hopes for, but with Dak Prescott's hamstring gotten
Speaker 1: away and then the Cowboys season along with it. Debro,
Speaker 1: is the time to Cup eight with Jalen Tolbert?
Speaker 3: Yep, Cooper Russia is not good and people got.
Speaker 1: A very U Is Trey Lance any good?
Speaker 3: Good reminder?
Speaker 1: But about Trey Lance? Debro? No? No o kep uh?
Speaker 1: Samsey's for you, Pat, Jalen Tobert done in dustin Yes,
Speaker 1: okay yes?
Speaker 2: And Joe could I voice two quick concerns about good
Speaker 2: boy story receive thank you just gonna. Debro has been
Speaker 2: doing a great job of making this public service announcement
Speaker 2: in our waiver article every week. If you're thinking about
Speaker 2: getting Elijah Moore or Jerry Judy, just realize good matchup
Speaker 2: against the Saints this week, but from week twelve to
Speaker 2: week fifteen, the Browns play the Steelers, Broncos, Steelers again,
Speaker 2: and the Chiefs. So it is a pretty hellish run
Speaker 2: of matchups there. And the one thing about Cocher and
Speaker 2: maybe deebro worries about this less than I do, is
Speaker 2: I think Adam Thelen could be ready to go coming
Speaker 2: out of there week eleven by in which case does
Speaker 2: that push Kohler Coker outside or do they have Thelan
Speaker 2: play outside or did they split it? Because I like
Speaker 2: Bryce Young does target his slot receivers a lot, and
Speaker 2: we saw that last year with Adam Thielen, who was
Speaker 2: like what wide receiver six or something going into Thanksgiving
Speaker 2: week in PPR leagues. But like, I don't want any
Speaker 2: of the outside receivers in this offense really, so if
Speaker 2: THELAN comes back and pushes Coker outside, that really devalues Coker.
Speaker 3: I think Coker keeps the slot role and I think THELAN,
Speaker 3: if anything, we could see like a fifty to fifty
Speaker 3: for both. But I think Coker can play the out outside.
Speaker 3: But Dude, the big thing I want to highlight about
Speaker 3: Coker and I know the stat like I know if
Speaker 3: people look at the box scores. They're gonna say, why
Speaker 3: should I care about this guy? It's Bryce Young, dude,
Speaker 3: he got a freaking thirty two percent target chair like
Speaker 3: that that plays like that type of volume and the
Speaker 3: other thing about it. Wee could say, Okay, there's nobody
Speaker 3: left and it's Bryce Young that's out targeting their first
Speaker 3: round pick, Xavierly get by a large margin, and the
Speaker 3: upcoming matchups are fantastic for slot wide receivers like Casey
Speaker 3: very good versus the perimeter, the Bucks very decent versus
Speaker 3: the perimeter. But yet they've allowed the second and third
Speaker 3: most Fantasy points per game to opposing slot wide receivers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the Carolina Panthers are streaking right now, two
Speaker 1: wins in a row. Everybody, look out. Let's go all right,
Speaker 1: let's get to some of the streamers for Week eleven.
Speaker 1: Debro kick us off with a QB. You want to stream?
Speaker 1: You need to redeem yourself because last week you gave
Speaker 1: everybody out and actors and I told you that was
Speaker 1: a dumb idea, but you didn't listen to me. No,
Speaker 1: So redeem yourself. Where are you going this on that
Speaker 1: L I knew I was gonna get the smoke today.
Speaker 1: I was saving it. We were saving it. Look, I
Speaker 1: deserve it, and so the Jets they deserve it. The
Speaker 1: season is done. Football in New York done not so
Speaker 1: great these days.
Speaker 3: It's it's bad to Adams dropping passes in the end zone.
Speaker 1: It's not good. Not good.
Speaker 3: But two quarterbacks that will lead you to fantasy points.
Speaker 3: This week, we're gonna go back to the well Man.
Speaker 3: We thought we've made jokes, We've talked about it. But
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson throwing yolo balls against a bottom three pass
Speaker 3: defense for the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 1: Yes, please, I like this one much better. I don't worry.
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be okay. Thanks for you, FITZI.
Speaker 1: You're targeting a guy against the Atlanta Falcons, Bo Nicks.
Speaker 2: He's just become such a reliable point producer. Top matchup
Speaker 2: against the Chiefs, and he was like really efficient as
Speaker 2: a passer, didn't run much, but gave us two hundred
Speaker 2: and fifteen yards two touchdowns. Oh and by the way,
Speaker 2: he's playing the Atlanta Falcons, the team that just made
Speaker 2: Marquez Valdez Scantling look like Randy so.
Speaker 1: Pat Was it weird to say bo Nick's very reliable
Speaker 1: fantasy point getter, like the.
Speaker 2: Goodness, but man, you go back over the last six weeks,
Speaker 2: he's got to be like top eight for.
Speaker 1: Since week five, QB eight, QB nine, QB eighteen, okay,
Speaker 1: and not so good then QB two, QB fifteen, QB twelve.
Speaker 1: So he's right on that one, a tier man like
Speaker 1: he's a guy you should be stabishing right now. Good
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, He is good. Daniel Jones. Good Daniel Jones.
Speaker 1: How about a tight end to stream this week? Patty?
Speaker 1: How you got?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 2: John new Smith against the Raiders? Good matchup and it
Speaker 2: seems like two a tongue of Vello's strategy of getting
Speaker 2: the ball out quickly greatly benefits John new Smith. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and again the Raiders are very generous the tight ends.
Speaker 2: It seems like he could be a good streamer for
Speaker 2: a week eleven.
Speaker 1: De bro tight end for week eleven. So this one
Speaker 1: comes with context.
Speaker 3: But I want people monitoring this because he is going
Speaker 3: to be ranked and Sara my top twelve tight ends
Speaker 3: for the week if Dalton Kinkaid is out and that
Speaker 3: is Dawson Knox. The matchup, I mean, we know that
Speaker 3: Buffalo's going to throw the ball. It's Josh Allen led offense.
Speaker 3: All of that is definitively true. The Kansas City Chiefs
Speaker 3: are a top shelf matchup for titands. They're one of
Speaker 3: the second most fantasy points per game and the most
Speaker 3: receiving yards per game to the position, and as well
Speaker 3: as Kean Coleman Amari Cooper. They even play, so the
Speaker 3: target tree has been pruned a few limbs, so Dawson
Speaker 3: Knox could walk away with a very good game.
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the defenses to stream for
Speaker 1: a week eleven debro. Who do you have?
Speaker 3: I want pressure, I want turnovers? And this is a
Speaker 3: low key, great, great option. I can't even believe they're
Speaker 3: still out there. Man, the Rams versus the Patriots only
Speaker 3: twenty two percent rostered their top three in pressure rate
Speaker 3: and QB hurry rate.
Speaker 1: And oh guess what.
Speaker 3: Drake Mays a rookie and he has faced the highest
Speaker 3: pressure rate in the NFL this year, So yes, the
Speaker 3: Rams are a fantastic option.
Speaker 1: Pat Speaking of turnovers, the Houston Texans create a lot
Speaker 1: of turnovers, couldn't win the football game on it, so
Speaker 1: they're available this week. You want to stream them.
Speaker 2: Yes, they created five turnovers with the interceptions, Joe. They're
Speaker 2: number two in defensive DVOA. Going into week ten, they
Speaker 2: were number five in pressure rate, number six and sex
Speaker 2: And get this for their upcoming schedule for the Texans,
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys, yes please, uh, the Tennessee Titans, and
Speaker 2: the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: So yeah, their next three quarterbacks. It looks like they
Speaker 2: could be facing Trey Lance, Will Levis and Mac Jones.
Speaker 2: So I'm going the extra buck or two wins.
Speaker 1: I'll say it, Pat has the better streamer.
Speaker 2: I'll spend three bucks on the Texans and not have
Speaker 2: to worry about defense Thanksgiving week.
Speaker 1: Like you gave us the Lions on that schedule, I
Speaker 1: think a couple weeks ago the Broncos on one of
Speaker 1: them earlier.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I'm a lazy I'm a lazy man, Joe.
Speaker 2: I don't want to have to stream a defense every
Speaker 2: single week. I just want to set it and forget
Speaker 2: it for like three weeks and not have to do anyth.
Speaker 1: Wonderful schedule at bad quarterback. Let's go for kicker here, Pat,
Speaker 1: who do you.
Speaker 2: Have Jason Sanders versus the Raiders again, good matchup, and
Speaker 2: in the two games since Tua came back, Sanders has
Speaker 2: had two field goals and three extra points in both
Speaker 2: of those games.
Speaker 3: De bro Kicker, call me a sucker for a feel
Speaker 3: good story, Baby shake Bates, give me him. Detroit's gonna
Speaker 3: be in the red zone and they're gonna be in
Speaker 3: kicking range often against Jacksonville.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then Dan Campbell is going to go for it.
Speaker 1: Unfortunate, but now.
Speaker 3: He's got Now now we know that bats. He he's
Speaker 3: got that fifty yr plus leg. Like they talked about
Speaker 3: this on the podcast. He's like, didn't want to sit
Speaker 3: here and put too many uh, too many long shots
Speaker 3: onto the kids shoulders.
Speaker 1: He hit two of them last week. I know, I know,
Speaker 1: barely barely good on the Lions, like the teams. You know,
Speaker 1: people want to give the Lions crap because go thro
Speaker 1: all those picks. They won the game. People want to
Speaker 1: give the Chiefs crap they blocked the kick, they won
Speaker 1: the game. You know, these teams play all three phases offense, defense,
Speaker 1: special teams. You give yourself a much better chance to
Speaker 1: win football games. And you can hate it all you want.
Speaker 1: You can say it's luck. Whatever it is. When you
Speaker 1: are good in all three aspects, you are giving yourself
Speaker 1: a much better chance to have the record that the
Speaker 1: teams like the Lions and the Chiefs have, So you
Speaker 1: can hate them all you want. That's good football. Sorry
Speaker 1: you referee, shut up. It's stop it. This is good football.
Speaker 1: This is preparation, this is work ethic, this is personnel,
Speaker 1: this is top to bottom good organizational. I think that's
Speaker 1: called grit. It's all of it, It's all the above,
Speaker 1: and those two teams have it, which is why already
Speaker 1: bet them both in the super Bowl before to go
Speaker 1: at it, and I double down on it in my
Speaker 1: it's halfway evaluation in week nine, Well, I was like,
Speaker 1: this is it. I still don't see two teams from
Speaker 1: either conference that are going to match these guys. And
Speaker 1: I think both of them can have the one seed.
Speaker 1: And when they have the one seed, it's a much
Speaker 1: easier path two long games after a bye to the
Speaker 1: super Bowl. More often than not, that is a tough
Speaker 1: thing to stop. All right, Let's get to the Waiver
Speaker 1: Wire ads of the week. FITZI. Who's the top five
Speaker 1: for Week eleven?
Speaker 2: Jalen Warren Number one, Audric estimated number two. Number three,
Speaker 2: Quintin Johnston still widely available, big fast, tied to a
Speaker 2: good quarterback, has shown an aptitude for scoring a lot
Speaker 2: of touchdowns. I like all those things. Shoe number four
Speaker 2: guy we didn't really talk about.
Speaker 1: Tai J.
Speaker 2: Spears who came back in week ten, got a pretty
Speaker 2: good amount of work. Tony Pollard not fully healthy, and
Speaker 2: I loved what I saw from Tai J. Spears in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, so I'm interested in adding him and
Speaker 2: Ricky Piersaw, as Debro mentioned, a lot of contingent upside there.
Speaker 2: He's number five.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, Spears was in the sixty percents in
Speaker 1: sleeper QJ is at fifty nine, so check him out, folks.
Speaker 1: I mean that was a guy who's our Waiver Oar
Speaker 1: pickup of the week last week and guess way another
Speaker 1: touchdown this week. So Deebro, give me your top five
Speaker 1: four week eleven.
