Is when people need 20 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: to start drafting their fantasy teams. It's like festivals for 21 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: fantasy football owners. Now is the time that people are 22 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: gonna start setting up those drafts, and right up until 23 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: Labor Day weekend, we are going to see a lot 24 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: of fantasy football drafts on NFL dot com. And you 25 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: haven't signed up yet, do it now? You gotta go 26 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: dot com slash fantasy. All right, Let's take a look 27 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: at some of the key injuries from this past week, 28 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: and those guys in red, those are the big ones. 29 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: Isaiah Pete apparently blew out his knee. Sam Baker also 30 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: with a torn I believe with torn patella in his knee, 31 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: and that's a big one. And those are huge. And 32 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: Sam Baker obviously not a guy you're gonna draft, but 33 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: the implications of what Sam Baker does for the Atlanta 34 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: O line has some major implications in a lot of 35 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: fantasy draft exactly. Remember they drafted Jake Matthews because they 36 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: wanted to solidify that offensive line. Well, they just lost 37 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,839 Speaker 1: a big part of it. And the old line last 38 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: year was downright terrible at times. Matt Ryan was sacked 39 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: a ton last season, So hopefully Atlanta could fill that whole. 40 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 1: It's gonna be tough, alright, fab two games went down Sunday. 41 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at our first. We start with 42 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: the Broncos brand new Levi standium in Santa Clara, a 43 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: veritable cornucopia. Looks nice fantasy and they have fantasy football 44 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: lounges there too, they do. Indeed. Peyton Manning to Maryus Thomas, 45 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: Julius Thomas on one side, and of course Vernon Davis 46 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: and this man Colin Kaepernick on the other hits an 47 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: Quan Bolden here for a very short bolding, just catches 48 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: everything he does. He's been looking pretty good in the preseason, 49 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: to be honest with you. Five for nine for Kaepernick, 50 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: not very many yardage, but a lot of drops as well. 51 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: It's still on the first quarter, Peyton Manning to his 52 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: favorite target, to Maryus Thomas. How'sing this fine? Open one 53 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: yard fantasy football? Zoh? This has become absolutely dt Five catches, 54 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: thirty seven yards. Second quarter week go the other Thomas 55 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: Manning to Julius Thomas, and I had got a feeling 56 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: we're gonna see a lot of this this season. Not 57 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 1: the prettiest pass in the world, but it doesn't matter. 58 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: At six points. It looked easy, though, didn't it let's 59 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. There you go, seven teen yards score. Manning 60 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: finished twelve and four team for a hundred and two 61 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: yards in that score. Nine years got smashed man losing 62 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: thirty four to nothing at home. All right, faster takeaways 63 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: from that game Denver against smashing, I mean absolutely smashing 64 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: nights at home and then I just got a pretty 65 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: good d What are your takeaways from that game? Peyton 66 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: Manning is good? Okay, Peyton Manning looking news alert, fantastic. 67 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: I'm still not drafting him too early because I don't 68 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: do that, but he just looks great. He is right 69 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: on the same page as the Marius Thomas who has 70 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: emerged as one of the elite wide receivers in fantasy football, 71 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: and Julius Thomas has well has been great very quickly. 72 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: I know you've been high on on money Ball. C J. 73 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: Anderson got a bulk of the carries. Ronnie Hillman started 74 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: the game and he costs for concerns. Now, unless Ball 75 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: has some sort of setback, he is the guy as 76 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned, alright. Game number two Carolina taken 77 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: on Kansas City. Cam Newton's bad. Cam Newton is back. 78 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: Alex Smith, he was there. Jamal Charles was not. He 79 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: didn't make the trip due to a bruised foot. Cam 80 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: Newton there is. He saw his first game action after 81 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: offseason ankle surgery. First quarter here Smith connects with Dwayne 82 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: Bow for twenty one yards. But look pretty nice. Five catches, 83 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: sixty two yard be fooled, don't be hold? But all right. 84 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: Second quarter we go stilly talking about Jonathan Stewart a 85 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 1: Jonathan Stewart's siding. This is not the time, This is 86 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: not the only time we're gonna see Jay stew either. 87 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: That was from two yards out. Next Carolina possession, Newton 88 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: is gonna connect with his rookie wide receiver at Hen 89 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: Benjamin even looked a little rusty, but you got better. 90 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: First quarter he looked I gotta be saying. He looked 91 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: very stiff and tentative out there. He really warmed up 92 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: as the game went on. All right. Later in the 93 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: drive at Stewart again another one that is two scores 94 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: for Jay stew makes it fourteen and six. Panthers go 95 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: on to win to six team. The player you were 96 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: most impressed with in that game, fatis well. Cam Newton 97 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: is someone that people who have been waiting to see 98 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: play after the ankle surgery, and there were a few 99 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 1: plays in there where he had to scramble around and 100 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: he looked like the old Superman. Looked like he could 101 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: bust that thing right out. I didn't see any issues 102 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: with the ankle. That is very very good news. If 103 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 1: he continues to progress it and there's no issues with 104 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: this ankle, I see his adp rising a little bit. 105 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: All right, that was Sunday. But overall, which players have 106 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: impressed you throughout this preseason week? Well, I'm gonna talk 107 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: about Tony Romo first. Or Tony Romo in his first 108 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: game back from the back surgery looked very very good 109 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys. He completed four or five passes 110 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: for eighty yards. He had a thirty one yard touchdown 111 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: pass to who else but Dez Bryant. So that was 112 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: the one issue we had with Romo. Is the back 113 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: in the hold up? Well, so far, so good. It 114 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: was a positive step. Tony. Talk to me about Justin Hunter, 115 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: just eight teen catches last season, but I know you're 116 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: high on him this year. I love this guy and 117 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: they put this J A G tag on him instead 118 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: of his name. Just a guy it motivated him. Four 119 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: catches one eleven yards and two touchdowns and his sixty 120 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: four yard touchdown. This kid has breakout written all over him, 121 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: and no one's drafting him until the later rounds. Yeah, 122 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: if you like your wide receivers young and playing in 123 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: their second year, take a chance on Justin Hunter somewhere late. 124 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: So much hype surrounding Kyle Rudolph in a NORV Turner offense. 125 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: Did you like how he looked? Oh? Of course, how 126 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: can you not. A fore catches eighty nine yards and 127 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: a touchdown, including that fifty one yard touchdown, and he's 128 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: in sync with Matt Castle. Look at him making a 129 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: play there in the middle of the field and taking 130 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: it to the house like a wide receiver. And you 131 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,239 Speaker 1: said it. North Turner is the tight end whisperer, Okay, 132 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: Jordan Cameron last year, there have been a litany of 133 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: tight ends who have played well in North Turner's offense. 134 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: He's a breakout Canada. You see it. Their average draft 135 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: position a hundred and first over the lightly up ground. 136 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: Sign me up, come on. Good profits to be had 137 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: with Kyle Rudolph. I believe are at least impressive players. 138 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: Boy Eli Manning looks bad. And I know Eli Manning 139 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: was bad last year, but he looks even worse so 140 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: far in the offense. One of seven six passing yards 141 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: against the Colts. I mean I could do that James 142 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: seven of sixteen forty night passing yards in the preseason. Yuck. 143 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: Now you're not drafting Eli Manning. Okay, uh much the 144 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: chagrin of of our fantasy Plisi Milly Carrem but this 145 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: has to have you a little bit worried about Victor 146 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: Cruz and Reuben Randall. If Eli man he can't find successes, 147 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: jenses are the wide receivers are gonna find success either. 148 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: He's in a new offense. Let's give him a little 149 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: bit of time, But so far, no good. C. J. 150 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: Spiller currently has an ADP on NFL dot Com at 151 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: five overall, a fifth rounder in ten team leagues. Rashad Jennings, 152 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews, Frank Gore also enough ballpark. He didn't look 153 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: too good. I hate to say it, but friend Jackson 154 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: looks better again and he's thirty three years old. Spiller 155 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: six carries sixteen yards. He split the first team reps 156 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: with Jackson. He was on the field for no third 157 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: downs or no red zone touches. So that has me 158 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: a little bit worried. But I've been saying all along, 159 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: you can't draft him as more than a flex, all right, 160 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: So Trench Richardson a much lower ADP for him AD 161 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: six the overall taken after Join Bill, right before Maurice Jones, 162 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: Drew and Stephen Jackson. He's dancing too much still, James. 163 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: The offensive line's got a question marks and he looks 164 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: like the same guy that failed us last year. I 165 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: don't know if they put cementiness pads or in his 166 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: shoes or up, but he's just not moving very well 167 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 1: and right right at this point, I don't even know 168 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: if I can trust him as a flex starter. If 169 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: on draft Trent Richardson I have taken him as a 170 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: high end four or I'm not taking him because the 171 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: risk with him is just growing. In my opinion, I 172 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: wanted to see more than this. He's just not producing. 173 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: I still believe that his current ADP profits might be had, 174 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 1: but you're right, he does look don't go crazy and 175 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: draft him in the first six or seven rounds, but 176 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: if you can get him around eight, around nine, then 177 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 1: you take a chance out doubt the tize risk. We 178 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: know the talents there, that's the thing. But after his 179 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: first year, all right, well listen, we're gonna throw it 180 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: over again to the third Game of Thrones. Reference here, 181 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: Molly Calici, Carroll and Adam Rank. Thank you, James. What's changed? 182 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 1: Hating on the Giants and loving up on the Cowboys? 183 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: Probably waiting on quarterbacks this year too. Molly doesn't do 184 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: that ever, Molly came here with the people's champ. Adam Rank, 185 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: We've got to give the people what they want, right, 186 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: So we're talking a little Brown's redskins. As these two 187 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: teams get set to face off tonight FedEx Field, I 188 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: have a feeling there might be some good ratings on 189 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: this preseason. I think a lot of people will be 190 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: tuning in just to hunch. Brian Hoyer said to start 191 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: tonight for Cleveland, but on Tuesday, coach Mike Patton is 192 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 1: expected to announce a starter for the season. So clearly 193 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: all eyes will be on Johnny Manziel tonight. But from 194 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: a fantasy perspective, what should we be looking forward to 195 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: in this one and watching? Can we can we have 196 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: some real talk here about hashtag real talk. Let's do 197 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: it Can we just start him? Can we skip to 198 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: the part of the movie where Johnny Manziel is just 199 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback of this team? Looks after the Browns 200 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: have waited a decade for this guy to be their 201 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: starting quarterback? Can you just give them what they want? Like, 202 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: look at this first game there he is against the Lions. 203 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: He's doing all the things. Yeah, he's doing all the 204 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: things that he was expected to do and what we 205 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: came accustomed to him doing at Texas A and F. 206 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: He's rolling out, he's hitting receivers on the run, he's 207 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: smartly running the football. Look at that pass right there. 208 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: This guy is ready to play. Put him out there, 209 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: the Browns fancy waited so long. Just put him out 210 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: if he earns the starting job, will you have a 211 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: blow up swan in the pool and challenge in the play? 212 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: I do all of that all I'm doing all that. 213 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: I'll be out there in my floating watching Browns games 214 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: and drafting him in the thirteenth round. And another guy 215 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: who needs to be on the field is Terence West. Again, 216 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: he's got the explosiveness. He's perfect for Kyle Shanahan. That's nice. 217 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: He's he got a nice contract. He's getting paid. But 218 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: Terence West, just from talking to the scouts and everything 219 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: like that, feel that he's the best bit for this offense. 220 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: He got. He didn't get a chance to run with 221 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 1: the ones too much against Detroit. Hopefully he'll get that 222 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,599 Speaker 1: opportunity tonight against the Washington Redskins, because this guy is 223 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: immensely talented. All right, I'll be watching terrorists West. There 224 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: is no question on the other side of the ball. 225 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: Adam org three was my quarterback last season. I wasn't 226 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: I wasn't hoisting any trophies. We'll just leave it at that. 227 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: What can I expect tonight? And during this season from 228 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: r G three, we got to see him as a 229 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: pocket passer because they've now taken the run element away 230 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: from him and they want him to drop back and 231 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: throw the ball. And they had a joint practice last 232 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: week with the New England Patriots, and there were reports 233 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: that Kirk Cousins just looked better. A lot of the 234 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: Patriots players actually came out and confirmed that report, So 235 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: there's a little bit of intrigue there. You know. The 236 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: thing that made r G three so great was his running, 237 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: and he had six touchdowns in his first six games. 238 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: He's had one in the last two And if he's 239 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: not running the football, if he's just a pocket passer, 240 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: you cannot draft him high. You cannot trust take him 241 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: over guys like even guys like Andy Dalton, Philip river Is, 242 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. He's falling way down my draft board. I'll 243 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: tell you what. I'm waiting on him for sure as well. 244 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 1: How about Alfred Morris. So we know he's got a 245 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: sweet ride in the third most rush t ds in 246 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: the thousand, Well that trend continue, my man, his sweet 247 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 1: mits mits b He calls Bentley like, I love this guy. 248 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: I don't understand why people are so down on him. Yeah, 249 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: he said two down back and he might not figure 250 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: two prominently in the passing game, but he's really working 251 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 1: on it. And coach Ja Gruden was talking about how 252 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: he's made strides, how he's made improvements, and I don't 253 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: expect him to come out and be the second coming 254 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: of Marcus Allen catching the ball out of the backfield, 255 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: but he should be good enough. Plus he gets all 256 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: the goal line carries. Really we hope he does. Shanahan's gone, 257 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: so hopefully Jay Gruden will get on the ball Shannahannigan's 258 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: uh there, did I say that? You got it right? Okay, 259 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: how about DeShawn Jackson. We know he's going to ball 260 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: out against Philly, but how about the rest of the 261 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: year with three center. If you have him in those 262 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: two games against Philly, you'll probably do really well. But 263 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: you know what, Deshan Jackson had his best best season 264 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: last year with Chip Kelly. It seems like it was 265 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: a product of Kelly's offense. And now he's gonna be there. 266 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: He's gonna be behind Pierre Garson and he's gonna be 267 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 1: their number two guy. I don't trust him. I don't. 268 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: I'm out. I'm out. It's too rich for my blood. 269 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: I'd rather you're higher on Garson. Yes, all right, Adam, 270 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: thank you so much. The People's Champ appreciate it.

And 282 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: he's got to never touchdown. You can make any scampers 283 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: into the end zone. Touchdown Thomas with a touchdown and 284 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: there's the record. Yeah, they were pretty good last year 285 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: except during that game, that big one.

Hello, everybody, Welcome to 292 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live. Molly Caam here with Michael Fabian Adam Rank. 293 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: Hello again, gentlemen. Today we're continuing our Fantasy two Days 294 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: by talking all things Broncos, starting with the man under center, 295 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. FABS. Let's start with you he was the 296 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: highest scoring quarterback last year. Where should fantasy owners think 297 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: about drafting him this year? Well, think about drafting him 298 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: or actually draft him, because I don't like drafting quarterbacks. 299 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: He's gonna go over the first two rounds. He's gonna 300 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: go in one of the first rounds. I'm not gonna 301 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: draft him there, but that's where he belongs coming off 302 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: the best season a quarterback has ever had from a 303 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: fantasy perspective. But keep in mind, no quarterback other than 304 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: Drew Brees has ever gone five thousand yards in back 305 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: to back seasons or forty touchdown passes in back to 306 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: back season. I'm not saying Manning can't do it, but 307 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: it's only been done once by one quarterback. He's gonna 308 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: be phenomenal. He looks great in the second week of 309 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: the preseason. But my strategy is to wait on quarterbacks. 310 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: So sadly, I will never have Peyton Manning on one 311 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: of my fantasy teams. I'm drafted him. I like him. 312 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: You know, I understand the numbers in the history, but 313 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: this is a new world of the NFL. I mean, 314 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: defenders are getting flagged for just glaring at a posing receivers, 315 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: so Now I look at Peyton Manning. I look at 316 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: how how his motivation is gonna be after that Super 317 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: Bowl game that you mentioned to me. He's gonna treat 318 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: the NFL like brock Lessner treated John c. He's gonna 319 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: not good. He's gonna smoke in the league. And it 320 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me if he has more touchdowns this year. 321 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: So he's gonna German suplex the NFL like seven. Well, 322 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: let's stick with football people. But it's Payton Manning. Hey, 323 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: if if last night was any indication, the guy's going 324 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: to be all right. But let's move on to his 325 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: running back, Monty Ball, his second year in this prolific offense, 326 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna name drop. Okay, Okay, So I was 327 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: at Denver's training camp with Terrill Davis the first one, right, 328 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: that's my first one of the day. Okay, it was 329 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: your first w W reference alright. So he was saying 330 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: that he feels like this will be a breakout here 331 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: for him, that he's going to be even better. Do 332 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: you concur would you draft him? Are you scared? I'm 333 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: a little worried about Monty Ball last year. They wanted 334 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: to go out and give him the even with my 335 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: name drop, even with your name drop, they wanted to 336 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: give him the job. And then what happens, No, Sean 337 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: Moreno becomes the guy there in Denver. Now he's got 338 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: the appendeck to me, and Ronnie Hillman has looked pretty 339 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: good in practice. I just can't trust him. I just don't. 340 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: His last name is ball, like to carry the ball. 341 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: It is a cool name, like it's some perfect name 342 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: for a running back. But is that enough they'll go 343 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: draft him in the second round? I don't think, Because 344 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 1: that's his a DP right now. He's going off the 345 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: board in the second round, and I'm just not It's 346 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: too it's too risky for me. I'd rather Peyton Manning. 347 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: If you're sitting there and you have a choice between 348 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning or Monty Ball, who's the more automatic person? 349 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: I am on board with Monte Ball. Soon your name 350 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: dropping benefited for me. Okay, look at the numbers that 351 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: running backs have produced when they're playing in a Peyton 352 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: Manning offense. The leading rusher has averaged over scrimmage yards 353 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: and double digit touchdowns. And no Sean renals gone. He's 354 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: in Miami. Now, I don't believe in C. J. Anderson 355 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,919 Speaker 1: and I don't believe in Ronnie Hillman. As long as 356 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: Monty Ball is healthy, he is the guy. I would 357 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: drop him in the end of the first round or 358 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 1: the beginning of the second round. Well, defenses are certainly 359 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: going to be gearing up to stop the past there. 360 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: And speaking of that passing attack to Marius Thomas had 361 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: the second most Fantasy points among wide receivers last year. 362 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: Will he repeat that type of success? Mr? Fabion, He's 363 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a top five wide receiver. I mean he's 364 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: got Pat Mannte throwing them the football and he's an 365 00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: absolute beast. This guy is a very off wide receiver. 366 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: To defend Peyton Manning love strow on the football. Look 367 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: at him take the ball in downfield, beat the defender 368 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: and almost take it to the house. Damarius Thomas is 369 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,239 Speaker 1: the second round pick across the board. He'll be one 370 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: of the first three to five wide receivers drafted. See 371 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:16,959 Speaker 1: I look at this guy in the first round. He's 372 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: gonna have a fantastic season. Again, this is a guy 373 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: I trust. I trust eight Manning, I trust to Marius Thomas. 374 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: I don't trust guys like Monty Ball. The Marius Thomas 375 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: is boys to have a huge breakout season. Remember when 376 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: he was a Georgia Tech, he was still not a 377 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: polished route runner. He's just getting better. And you look 378 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: at the way panting or Peyton Manning was playing in 379 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: that second preseason game, He's already looking at it. He 380 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: doesn't he doesn't trust everybody just yet. He doesn't trust 381 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 1: Manny Sanders quite yet. He's gonna be looking at Damarius Thomas. 382 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: With Eric Decker gone, that means more touchdowns for d T. 383 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: Trust such a scary word. Speaking of Eric Decker gone, 384 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: let me edge mackay you for a second. In case 385 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: you guys didn't know, he left to go to the 386 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: New York Jade. He went to the New York case 387 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: you're into the New York Chuch. He also has a 388 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: reality show, by the way, in case that he was wondering. 389 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: But Wes Welherd coming off a ten touchdown year and 390 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: the team signed Emmanuel Sanders in March last year, Welker 391 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: the Newby and mile hide. This year, it's Sanders who 392 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: will have the better year, and we will start with 393 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: you again. I like Sanders a lot. I think he 394 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: could be a good sleeper break outside, but I'm going 395 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: West Welker because he's got more skins on the wall. 396 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: He's got a great rapport with Peyton Manning. The one 397 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: issue I have with Welker is the concussions. As long 398 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: as he could stay healthy, he's going to be fantastic. 399 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: Welker is the guy that I would draft ahead of Sanders, 400 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: but Sanders definitely has major upside. Yeah, that's the truth. Though. 401 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: It's the concussions and it's the injury history. I don't 402 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: trust Wes Welker. I'd go down and I'd have a 403 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: Manny Sanders. It's gonna take him a little bit of 404 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: time to get on the same page with Peyton Manning, 405 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: but at the end of the season he's gonna end 406 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: up being the guy who has a better season. I 407 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: don't know. It's more with the Broncos offense. It's just 408 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: these any of these guys you can plug in and play. 409 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: And then when I'm looking at these two guys, when 410 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: I look at west Walker and look at Sanders, and 411 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: I look at their ADP, it's too much of a 412 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: risk to go with west Bulker at this spot. I'll 413 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: wait a couple of rounds. I'll take Sanders and I'll benefit. 414 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 1: Wilker does have the advantage of spring responsibly. I don't 415 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: know if you saw that commercial he was teaching us 416 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: where you spray pretty awesome. He's got a great if 417 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: we're drafting on commercials, Yes, Wes Welker first round in 418 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: seventh grade, you are definitely extra spraying when you were 419 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: in junior high probably, yes, for sure. Alright, Moving on, 420 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: I digress to Julius Thomas, the tight end. This is 421 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: his third year. He had a tremendous breakout your last year, Adam, 422 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 1: what do you expect from him? I expect another huge 423 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: season from him again with with Decker gone, they're gonna 424 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 1: need the red zone targets and Julius Thomas is going 425 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: to be getting those. He's get double digit touchdowns last year. 426 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: I expect him to have double data touchdowns again this season. 427 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: I've moved him ahead of Rob Gronkowski. He's the second 428 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: tight end off the board for me, just behind Jimmy 429 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: gramp But even then, you watched him play San Francisco. 430 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: He just has He just takes advantage of those mismatches. 431 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: He's getting even better. I mean, I would go all 432 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: in on this guy. I love these guys. Maybe not 433 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: Monty Ballt, but you know what, all the past tears, 434 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: I'm in round round. Sorry, he's been going off the 435 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: boards in the fourth round depending on how my team 436 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 1: breaks up. He's an athletic freak, and he is a 437 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 1: red zone freak, and Peyton Manning has a lot of 438 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: trust in him. And when you put that all together, 439 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: that's gonna equal production. So I would not be shocked 440 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 1: at all if he duplicates what he did last year. Uh, 441 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: double digit touchdowns over seven receiving yards. Someone I'm drafting 442 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: probably to me in the fourth or fifth round, but 443 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna last that long if you 444 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 1: draft them in the third und I think that's a 445 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 1: little bit too high for a tight end with only 446 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: one good season. But listen managed his quarterback, he's the 447 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: X factor. Thomas is a stuff that's just in. The 448 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: Broncos are pretty darn good and plenty of potential on 449 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: the fantasy side as well. Thank you, gentlemen. Still to come. 450 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 1: Could Geo Bernard or Keenan Allen jump into the top 451 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: ten at their positions this year?

Usual casting characters, Lashawn McCoy, 465 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: Matt Forte, A little bit surprised to see Adrian Peterson 466 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: so far down low, Chris Johnson and O Sean Moreno 467 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: switching teams here, but on this list there are some 468 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: real established names. But there's some young guys out there, 469 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: a couple of breakout guys that I really like. Actually, 470 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: everyone that we're gonna be talking about today, I really 471 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: really like. Don't spoil it, though I won't if you 472 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: could share with me some of the top running back 473 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: guys that could really break out, break into that top ten, 474 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: break into that top five. Fast will start with you, Uh, 475 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: Giovanni Bernard. I think I've only mention him five hundred 476 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: times already and uh in the month of August. But 477 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: I love what this kid brings to the table. His 478 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: upside is phenomenal, and during the preseason he is the 479 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: only running back in Cincinnati to see snaps with the 480 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: first team. Jeremy Hill hasn't been there, Ben Jarvis Greenellis 481 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 1: hasn't been there. Now, is there a chance that he's 482 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: gonna lose some goal line work to Hill? Absolutely, but 483 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: that's what's happening in the NFL these days. G O 484 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: has got the ability to catch fifty plus passes, give 485 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: you fift scrimmage yards, and somewhere between seven and nine touchdowns. 486 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: I would certainly draft him at the beginning of round two. 487 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: Mr Adam Mury. Sorry about Rashant Jennings. You know, I 488 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: really liked him a lot before this weekend and then 489 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: Eli Manning happened. But you know that, notwithstanding, rash Jennings 490 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: has showed over his great look. He played well for 491 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: the Raiders, so he's he Obviously if the offense isn't good, 492 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 1: he can still go out there and for news. And 493 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: I like this guy as somebody who is gonna be 494 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: a number one running back for that team. And he 495 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: also is very good out of the backfield. He catches 496 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: the ball really well. And if Eli man, he's gonna 497 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: do a bunch of that, a bunch of the checkdowns 498 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: and things of that nature. That's where Rashon Jennings is 499 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: gonna make his Hey. I like this guy. I He's 500 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: got a great first We see it right here against 501 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. This is somebody who's falling down draft forward. 502 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: He's gonna sneak and puss because the Giant's offense is 503 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 1: so bad you can sneak him under your life. How 504 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: about Andre Ellington, another young, explosive bat, small and stature 505 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: at five ft nine and about a hundred nine nine pounds, 506 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: but he is big in terms of upside. He is 507 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,160 Speaker 1: really the only running back in Arizona that has any 508 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 1: chance at being the bell Cow. Jonathan Dwyer, No, Stefan Taylor, No, 509 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: is he gonna lose some goal line work. Potentially that 510 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: could happen. We saw that happen in the preseason. But 511 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: the touches are gonna be there again. A guy who 512 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: can catch fifty pass is kind of like a Giovanni Bernard, 513 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: a guy who can give you four hundred scrimmage yards 514 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: last right over a thousand, and he wasn't even the 515 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 1: guy major upside for Ellington. How about x Stacy in St. Louis. 516 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: I know they spent a high pick on Tray Mason, 517 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: but Zach Stacy still pretty good. Don't give me Trey Mason. 518 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 1: He's not good enough in past protection to take any 519 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: of the work away from Zach Stacy. And I look 520 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 1: right there, he's a fourth round pick in average round. 521 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Did people not 522 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 1: remember what he did last year? If you will get 523 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: the teams that won Fantasy championships, Zach Stacy was the 524 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: number two running back behind Jamal Charles Because this guy 525 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: was a stud. And there's nobody I understand Ryan Schottenheimer's 526 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 1: trying to make us believe that there's some sort of 527 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: competition going on. There isn't. It's gonna be Zach Stacy. 528 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 1: And if you give him in the fourth round, then 529 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: your team is probably poised for another championship. That's Zach Stacy. 530 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: He's so hot right now, He's so hot. What if 531 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 1: I land too, if I see three, if I are 532 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: I think was the saying. Right. Let's say look at 533 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: the top whiteouts from last year. Josh Gordon a top 534 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: lot of question marks there. The rest of the guys 535 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 1: don't really surprise you to Maryus Thomas, Calvin Johnson, a 536 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: j green look, Eric Decker, Deshan Jackson, new teams a 537 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: lot of uncertain I think in their new respective positions 538 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: as well. All right, but let's talk about breakout wide receivers. 539 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: There's a lot of guys and there always is that 540 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: could break into the top ten. Uh fabs, Who do 541 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 1: you want? Corderyl Patterson is at the top of my list. 542 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: Last year, five second year wide receivers had a thousand yards. 543 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: Corderyl Patterson is a second year wide receiver. Last year, 544 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: the top scoring wide receiver in fantasy football was Josh Gordon. 545 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,360 Speaker 1: His offensive coordinator was nor Of Turner, who is now 546 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator in Minnesota. I love Patterson's upside last 547 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: year at the end of the season over the last 548 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: four weeks, not Calvin Johnson, nor Damarius Thomas or Dez 549 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: Bryant scored more Fantasy points then cor Darryl Patterson hashtag 550 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: knowledge Randall excuse me, Keenan Allen, my fellow Calbert. Yeah, buddy, 551 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: you gotta love this pick. I mean, Keenan Allen as 552 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: good as he was last year. Realized he was a 553 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: non factor for the Chargers for the first couple of 554 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: weeks of the season. It's crazy. Then Malcolm Floyd goes 555 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: out and here comes Keenan Allen and all of a sudden, 556 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: he takes the league by storm. And remember this was 557 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: a guy because of being at cal he got a 558 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: late start to training camp. He was battling some injuries. 559 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: But look at this guy, what he's able to do 560 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,119 Speaker 1: when he's out of the field. And that Mike McCoy 561 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: offense with Philip Rivers is going to continue get better. 562 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 1: They play the Raiders twice, the Chiefs twice. I think 563 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: he's gonna put up some big numbers. This guy is 564 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: ready to make a leap and he will be a 565 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: top five receiver this season. Cordell Patson very versatile. Randall 566 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: Cobb also very versatile, very versatile. Has never had a 567 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: thousand yard season and he's been a bit injury prone, 568 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: but I still like this kid. He's in a contract year. 569 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: And remember James Jones has gone, Jamichael Finley has gone. 570 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: I actually had a chance to talk to Mike McCarthy, 571 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: the Packers head coach, last week, and I told him, 572 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: you know, Randall comes a big breakout guy in fantasy. 573 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 1: You know what that means? Probably nothing, But I still 574 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: like Randall cos it's cool. McCarthy's kid plays in like 575 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: five fantasy leagues, so he knows what's up. He knows 576 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: what's up, and Randall COB's upside this year massive. He 577 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: could lead the Packers in reception. Adam right talking me 578 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 1: about Michael Floyd. He may have had the quietest thousand 579 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: yard receiving season after Yeah, and the guy they're talking 580 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: about in Arizona has been John Brown. You've been hearing 581 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: all these names go out. But Michael Floyd is a 582 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: player that Bruce Arians believes will be the number one 583 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: receiver in Arizona. He's ready to take the mantle away 584 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: from Larry Fitzgerald. And you think of Bruce arians offenses 585 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 1: in the past, very prolific. I like this kid, and 586 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: again you look at his average draft position. He is 587 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: going to be a steal for you, a seal, somebody 588 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: you can count on this season. All right, coming up, 589 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: it's time to grab a pen and add because we 590 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: are we're gonna rule out our list of breakout tight ends. 591 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: No Jimmy Graham, no Gronk, no Julius, No problem, because 592 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna give you our breakout list coming up.

Stick around and see which tight ends 603 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:18,479 Speaker 1: our experts say are bound to break out in Welcome 604 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: back to NFL Fantasy Live. Speaking of diamonds in the rough, 605 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: Michael Fabriano, Adam Rank, I'm molly, can't you see what 606 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: I did there? Appreciate that. Just the reminder, you can 607 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: always tweet the show with any of your draft or 608 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: fantasy related questions. Just hit us up on Twitter at 609 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy. We'd love to hear from you guys. All right, Jens, 610 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: we are breaking down the Chiefs from top to bottom, 611 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: starting with Alex Smith, and the only thing we know 612 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: about him is he was a bit inconsistent Michael Fabriano, 613 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: and he drove owners of that inconsistent. Look at these numbers. 614 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: Seven games he was gangbusters, then four as all right, 615 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: and then the other four fewer than ten fantasy points. 616 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: And if you started him in week sixteen, he's probably 617 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: your most hated player in the National Football League with 618 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: fewer than five Fantasy points. This is why Alex Smith 619 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: will never be more than a matchup based QB two 620 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: from a fantasy perspective. Inconsistency, and let's face it, this 621 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: offense is centered around Jamal Charles and the running game. 622 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: So Alex Smith will come out and put up good 623 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: numbers one week, maybe even two weeks in a row, 624 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: but the second you start them and trust him, he 625 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: burns you. So drafting late, the problem with Smith I 626 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: have is the inconsistency. But also he's already hit the ceiling. 627 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: There's no more upside left with Alex Smith. You're calling 628 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: him a game manager. See, but I started fifteen. I 629 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: love him. He was fantastic. He did have more Fantasy 630 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: points than Tom Brady. How about them? Well, that was 631 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: exactly a hard task last year. Tom Brady wasn't that good. 632 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: Lest It's it's a nice it's a nice company. We're 633 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: doing a chief preview and you're taking shot out to 634 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. I like how you work. I speak the truth. 635 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: Let's focus Jamal Charles. He didn't struggle. He was consistent, 636 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: scoring the third most points in all of Fantasy last year. Adam, 637 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: Will he repeat that success this season? Because I need 638 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: to truy he's gonna be hard pressed to repeat that performance. 639 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: I still like him as the top three running back, 640 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: but when you look at who he's going up against 641 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: in fantasy drafts, I'm talking about Lushawn McCoy and Matt 642 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: four K. I moved Jamal Charles down to the third 643 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: spot because there's some question marks on the offensive line. 644 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: Eric Fisher has not looked very good. They don't know 645 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: what to do with him. Our own Greg Rosenthal made 646 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: the point that if he wasn't a first overall pick, 647 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: Eric Fisher probably wouldn't be on the field. So they've 648 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: got some new pieces on the offensive line. I'm having 649 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: a hard time trusted him. I have to put him 650 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: down to three. He's still fantastic, He's still gonna put 651 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: up great now, but not at all. You have to 652 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: worry about the offensive line. And no running back since 653 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: Ladinian Tomlinson in two thousand and six two thousand and 654 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: seven has gone back to back as the number one 655 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: running back in fantasy football. That was almost as good 656 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 1: as my Tom Brady nugget. Most The news came down 657 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: last week that Joyanne Bow will be suspended for one 658 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: game for a marijuana related offense. What are your expectations 659 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: for him once he's back from suspension at him, Well, 660 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: he really hasn't been very consistent. You look back to 661 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: his breakout season in two thousand and ten, he was 662 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: really great, but since that time he's been nothing but 663 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: a disappointment. Shell I avoid him in fantasy drafts. He's 664 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: one of those names that you see you start getting 665 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: around eight, nine, tenth round. You look at it, You're like, 666 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: there's Dwayne Bow, but I'd rather take a chance on 667 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: one of the rookies the rather draft, Brandon Cooks. I'd 668 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: even go after Kelvin. I'd go Afre pretty much anybody 669 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: than Dwayne Bow. He's just, you know, with an inconsistent 670 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: quarterback like Alex Smith, you can't trust it inconsistently, like 671 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: spending Dwayne Bow for sixteen games fantasy football leagues because 672 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: I'm not touching its wide receiver and I'm suspending him 673 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: for inconsistency and being an underachiever. I would throw the 674 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 1: flag if I could, but I can't. Why with you? 675 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: I understand after him until the late rounds. Oh my gosh, 676 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: it's Monday. Can everybody tell all right, let's talk about sleepers, 677 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: because clearly I'm sleeping here, and I love me some 678 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: good sleepers. We've got some rookie guys. You're looking forward 679 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: to an Oregon duck. I understand. Anthony Thomas. Yeah, you 680 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: know what. I I fall in love with these guys 681 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: in college, and I you know, I watched a lot 682 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: of his games there with Oregon, and now I just 683 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: want to play him in the fantasy Like I don't 684 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 1: know that he's going to have a huge year. But 685 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: he's looked great so far in preseason. Very exciting player. 686 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: I love that he wears number one. We need more 687 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: of that in the end. I don't know if you 688 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: get fantasy points for that in any league like that, 689 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: but you know what, and plus, you know what, the 690 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: Chiefs DST was very good last season. If this guy 691 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: is gonna be able to return kicks, that's a little 692 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: added bonus there. So there's somebody to keep an eye on. Like, 693 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: don't draft him, but keep an eye on. Yeah, and 694 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: kicking number one makes me think that he's got a 695 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: big ego. I love that, So he'll probably be pretty good. Yeah, Yeah, 696 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: like that logic that's tremendous. Don'tut, don't listen to tag analysis, 697 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: don't listen to that advisor. Alright, you've got another sleeper, 698 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. My question here, though, is he is a 699 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: rookie tight end and you told us to be aware 700 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: of tight ends, but you're liking it. I just like 701 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: Kelsey's upside. Okay, I'm not telling you to draft him 702 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: as your number one, and you shouldn't, but he has 703 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 1: tight end to potential and he's looked good in the preseason. 704 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: His last game four catches six and three yards and 705 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: a forty three yard touched on is a big dude. 706 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: And again, he's not Rob Gronkowski. Okay, he's not Jimmy Graham, 707 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: he's not even zach Ertz. But if you draft a 708 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 1: second tight end late, he's worth taking a chance on, 709 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: especially if you get one of the elite tight ends 710 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 1: where you're number two isn't gonna really hurt you one 711 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: way or the other. So Kelsey is a guy to 712 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: continue to watch in the presets running the secondary, Like, 713 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: look at him. That's the thing about the Chiefs. They've 714 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: got two exciting players who are fantastic. I don't know 715 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: if they're fantasy relevant, but at least they're fun to launch. Yeah, 716 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 1: good stuff. Alright, guys, when we come back, it's flex 717 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: time and we're handing you the tools to dominate your 718 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: draft by name our players to target for your flex spot. 719 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy I presented by Direct TV is back in 720 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: just a few Can we get some time now for 721 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 1: dominant your drafts? Presented by direct TV. It's Fantasy Draft 722 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: Week here on NFL Fantasy Live. James out here alongside 723 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: Michael Fabiano, Mr Adam Rack guys. One of the most 724 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 1: important positions on your fantasy roster, of course, that all 725 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: important flex spot. So let's pretend you've already drafted, you're 726 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: starting running backs, you're starting wide receivers. What do you 727 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: like in your flex position this year? Mr Fabriano, I'm 728 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 1: gonna go with C. J. Spiller, even though earlier in 729 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: this show I said I don't like what I've seen 730 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: from it in the preseason. But CGS Spiller in some 731 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: league is being drafted as an RV two. Good luck 732 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: with that headache, I did you do that as an 733 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: RV three as a flex starter. I would take a 734 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: chance on CG. Spiller all day long, because he's still 735 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: young and I still think he has a chance to 736 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: much improve on what he did or didn't do in 737 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: two thousand and thirteen Adam Rake. Toby Gerhardt is a 738 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: guy that some folks are making in their r V 739 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: two position. Might be as faby honestly, with C. J. 740 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 1: Spiller Toby Gearhart in your RV two could be a 741 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: little bit pricey at flex position, but man, they'd be 742 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 1: a great pick up. Yeah, it's a great pickup because 743 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: there's not a lot of number one running backs in 744 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: the NFL. Right, so somebody who's gonna get all the 745 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: carries and get all the touches and everything. So that's 746 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: why I like Toby Gearhart there. He reminds me a 747 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 1: lot of Michael Turner when he was the undersut Ladinia 748 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,320 Speaker 1: Tomlinson for so many years. The Great went to Atlanta, 749 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: had a big breakout. Now he's going down to Duval County. 750 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 1: He's gonna do something similar. He's pretty good both catching 751 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: and running. You know, as long as they call the 752 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: right place for him. Don't let him run outside. But 753 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: you see what he did right there running I'll truck 754 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: you up the middle of Yeah. Just funny of this, 755 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 1: funny of this, And I like this Jags team. I 756 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,399 Speaker 1: really think that a lot of good things are gonna happen. 757 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: What round do you like Toby gart Haart? Well, if 758 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: he gets down to the fourth, fifth round, I love that. 759 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: I know some leagues people go a little bit early 760 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 1: on him, but man, I just I look at his 761 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 1: adveragedraft position. I'm comfortable with him if I'm going a 762 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: couple of receivers. I do like him in the r 763 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 1: B two position, but flex I guess i'd have to 764 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: be happy with him. There you go. Let's talk about 765 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 1: ray Rice Fabs. He's gonna miss a couple of games 766 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 1: to start off the season, but you know, again, you 767 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: look at that zone blocking scheme, he could be poised 768 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: for a big year. People freak out about things like 769 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: suspensions and injuries, that kind of thing sometimes too much. Now, 770 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: Ray Rice is not gonna play in the first two games. Okay, 771 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna have Bernard Fiers to be the y they're 772 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 1: running back there. But Rice looks more spry. He's lost 773 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: some weight, he's got a little giddy up in his step, 774 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,919 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be motivated to come back and play well. 775 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: People who see two games suspension overreact and they let 776 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: him sit on their draft board. His a DP on 777 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 1: nfl dot Com right now is round eight. If I 778 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: could get Ray Rice in round eight, listen, I'm gonna 779 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: do a dance around the rest of my owners in 780 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: that draft. Don't worry about the suspension. Drafted. If he's 781 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: fallen into the eighth round, take him. You could draft 782 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: him as your four, and then when he comes back, 783 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: he's your flex and you're looking good. Tremendous value. Talk 784 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: to me about the value that Gary Kubiak adds to 785 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,919 Speaker 1: both Bernard Pierce anity Rush, Well, look at the running 786 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 1: backs at Kubiak is coach. I mean you're talking about 787 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 1: Aaron Foster, Steve Slayton from Houston. Then during his days 788 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,839 Speaker 1: with the Denver Broncos, a lot of running backs put 789 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: up some pretty good numbers. So I think Ray Rice, 790 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: despite the suspension, it's kind of trending in the right 791 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: way because people are getting too freaked out about not 792 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,399 Speaker 1: taking it running back. I love this year joyke Bell, 793 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 1: and I know you're high on him as well. Yeah, 794 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 1: I really like what he did last year. He's one 795 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: of the you know, him and Reggie Bush formed a 796 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: pretty good team there in Detroit. And I look at 797 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: the situation that he's in now. If he was playing 798 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: with a running back who was the picture of health, 799 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: I would still like joy Cell because he gets goal 800 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: line carries, He catches the ball an awful lot out 801 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: of the backfield. The Lions are playing catch up a 802 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: lot of times too, so they have to throw the ball. 803 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 1: But then you add in the fact that he is 804 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: playing with Reggie Bush, and there's gonna be some time 805 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: this season Reggie Bush is gonna miss some games. That 806 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,879 Speaker 1: means it's gonna be the Joyke Bell show. I love 807 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 1: this guy, and like he said, he's going in the 808 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: ninth round. That's a great spot to get him. Then 809 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: he's your flex guy. This is he's unbelievable. The upside 810 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 1: on joy Bell in the ninth round to me is tremendous. 811 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: Again goal line carries. But again if Reggie Bush Mrs 812 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: Time man, we're talking about a potential r V one 813 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 1: uh fabs. Talk to me about Michael Crabtree in great 814 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: season eighty five catches, yards, nine touchdowns. Last year not 815 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 1: so much. Is he a player to be trusted? I 816 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,919 Speaker 1: think he is. And remember what I just said about 817 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 1: Ray Rice. To people freak out about guys with suspension 818 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: or injury, well, Crabtree's coming off an injury right last 819 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: year didn't do very much because he wasn't on the field. 820 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: When he came back, Colin Kaepernick threw the football to him. 821 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:35,240 Speaker 1: He likes Michael Crabtree. If you look at the numbers 822 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 1: that Colin Kaepernick produced a couple of years ago his 823 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 1: best fantasy games, Michael Crabtree was right there producing big 824 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,839 Speaker 1: time numbers. He is the wide receiver to target from 825 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,760 Speaker 1: the Sandranson reporting nighters. Forget about ankle and boldness, Stevie Johnson. 826 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: I think they're more of late round picks. Crabtree's also 827 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: looking for, uh, you know, a little play. He's in 828 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 1: a contract here, so he's gonna be even more made 829 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 1: it motivated to produce. I think Crabtree you could end 830 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: up being a three or a flex depending on your 831 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 1: draft strategy. And at that point, it's like gold, Jerry Gold, 832 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,240 Speaker 1: It's like gold. Another guy that could be gold in Atlanta. 833 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 1: Adam Ring talk to me about Roddy White. Really like 834 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 1: Roddy White this season. You know, he battles some injuries 835 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 1: last year, and again that drops his a DP down 836 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 1: because people are, like Mike says, freaking out because of 837 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: his injuries last year. But if you look what he 838 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: did when he came back in the month of December, 839 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: he had more targets than anybody else, He had more 840 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: receiving yards than anybody else. This guy is still a 841 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: stud at the receiver position, and with Julio Jones sitting 842 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: across from him, you can't really double him. And then 843 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: he goes and he goes, it goes to work. He's 844 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: going to be fantastic this year. I also like him too. 845 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,399 Speaker 1: This is what he did last year. He let us 846 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 1: know his fantasy enthusiast when he was gonna play. He's like, 847 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 1: if you see me not practicing, don't start me. So 848 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: he's giving us a heads up. So if he comes 849 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 1: out and tells us he's gonna be doing well, I'm 850 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:48,840 Speaker 1: gonna trust him. All Right, there you go. That was 851 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: dominant your draft, presented by Direct TV. Alright, and coming up, 852 00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,240 Speaker 1: let's say you missed down on Jimmy Graham, Julius Thomas, 853 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: and Grock. Shame on you.

But the rest of 870 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,879 Speaker 1: the guys you see there Martinis Bennetts a top ten 871 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: fantasy tight end. Adam like, I know you're very excited 872 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, it's hard to believe though we talked 873 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,359 Speaker 1: about it last week that he kind of snuck up there. 874 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: You did. All right, let's talk about some breakout tight 875 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: ends that we think to jump to the top ten fabs. 876 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: I know you like this guy. A lot of guys 877 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: like this guy. Kyle Rudolph I said it earlier in 878 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 1: the show. North Turner's the tight end whisper. This guy 879 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: has proven that he can make plays. He did so 880 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 1: right there against the Arizona Cardinals. This guy, remember he 881 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: want a Pro Bowl m DP a couple of years ago. 882 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: He can be a massive playmaker in this offense. Drafting 883 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: late and I'm telling you something right now. He could 884 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 1: be one of the best bargains among tight ends. I 885 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,439 Speaker 1: would agree. Jordan Reid freemous rank. Yeah, immensely talented guy 886 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 1: from the Redskins, and you look at training camp this season. 887 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 1: They've been raving about him, all the things that he 888 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 1: can do. And if we're gonna get the r G 889 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 1: three that just sits in the pocket and looks over receivers, 890 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,799 Speaker 1: Jordan Reid is going to be featured prominently, especially in 891 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 1: the red zone. I like that he has two good 892 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: receivers outside of him, kind of open things up for him. 893 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 1: Great running attack too. The only thing that scares me 894 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: is that Jake Gruden didn't necessarily have a great tight 895 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: end when he was in Cincinnati. That's the only thing 896 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 1: that's bugging me about this. But you can't argue with 897 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 1: this guy's talent, and if he can stay healthy for 898 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: a full season, he's up for a monster break up. 899 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: I think the talent is there, I wonder if the 900 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: targets will be there. Zach Ertz in philadel feel a 901 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,840 Speaker 1: lot to like about the second year player at Stamp. 902 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: He flashed at the end of last year as a 903 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: red zone target for Nick Foles. We've already seen him 904 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: found the end zone in the preseason. Remember, de Sean 905 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 1: Jackson is gone, Jeremy Macklin is in. But boy, the 906 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 1: injury question marks about Macklin are already starting to come up. 907 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 1: So I think comes in he could score eight touchdowns 908 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: this season in this offense. Drafting Lee, I wonder if 909 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: the yardage will be there though fabs tight ends mostly 910 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: the yardage isn't there. But if it gives me six 911 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 1: or seven hundred, I'm happy. True. Garrett Graham double g 912 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,720 Speaker 1: for you. Mr Ring. Yeah, you think of the Houston 913 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: Texans tight ends, they always seem to score touchdowns. I 914 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,879 Speaker 1: don't know that I'm always starting them, but we're looking 915 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,799 Speaker 1: for somebody to break out there. I Fryan Fitzpatrick ends 916 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 1: up being the quarterback, which is gonna know, you know, 917 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna be looking for his tight end. So Garret 918 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 1: grahams somebody who can gamble on a little bit later 919 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: in your draft, probably is a free agent pick up too. 920 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 1: That's gonna do it for us. We had a great show. 921 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: Great socks, by the way. Too bad you guys didn't 922 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: see it. Well, I think you guys may have seen it. Actually, 923 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,240 Speaker 1: I was rocking it Earth I Like It. NFL Fantasy 924 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 1: Live is back tomorrow.
