Speaker 1: Listen first, du dennit do du dennity. Yeah, welcome your
Speaker 1: host Friday from line five, God Rob say, Francis Franca
Speaker 1: stand ball ladies and gentlemen, your bfs and with that
Speaker 1: we will get to you inside of Studio thirty four.
Speaker 1: This is the BFFs. Here's Frank Staffle. I am Greg Sauceman.
Speaker 1: All right, what's hey. There's a lot going on right now.
Speaker 1: Trade deadline looming in the NFL, there's trades going down ready,
Speaker 1: there's people being benched on their birthday. J E. T S.
Speaker 1: Just end the season. It's getting crazy out here. Greg.
Speaker 1: How are you doing? I'm doing well, man, I'm hanging
Speaker 1: in there. I I didn't get a chance, unfortunately, uh
Speaker 1: to watch the finale of Halloween Baking Championship. I actually
Speaker 1: he was going to ask you how it ended. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I was legitimately because our fantasy team was
Speaker 1: making a push to win last night. I wanted watching
Speaker 1: the whole game. Look at you watching football during the
Speaker 1: football season. Yeah, proud, did you like what you saw? Uh? No,
Speaker 1: because he lost. It would have it would have been
Speaker 1: a lot better if we won. But a valiant comeback, Greg,
Speaker 1: I think we were down what forty five going into
Speaker 1: last night. We had James Conner and Juju, the closer
Speaker 1: had Chris Boswell shout out to the clothes. I mean
Speaker 1: he had some monster weeks all across the board of
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cookie and Michael Thomas got some big games. Darren Fells,
Speaker 1: how can I forget Darren Fells. The BFS come storming back,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't enough, unfortunately. But for most people, if
Speaker 1: you needed if you needed Juju, or you needed James
Speaker 1: Connor to do something, you got it last night. So
Speaker 1: in my other league, I did actually need James Conner
Speaker 1: and Juju to get it done, and they did. Super
Speaker 1: Flexed league, I have two wins. Now join the club
Speaker 1: my only super flex to win. Let's go yeah. Last
Speaker 1: night Monday Night Football, the Steelers are now fourteen. Nothing's
Speaker 1: goed to all these points. Nancially wound up winning. Connor
Speaker 1: and Juju both had big nights. Deante Johnson did as well.
Speaker 1: I'll get to him in just a second, but the
Speaker 1: big story coming out was as great as James Conner was.
Speaker 1: He as a bad minavy events. He has hurt on
Speaker 1: his last carry towards the end of the game. UM,
Speaker 1: it looks like he's an A C joint sprain. Mike
Speaker 1: Tomlinsons will be limited earlier this week, and then we'll
Speaker 1: see what do you think about James Connor's injury and
Speaker 1: his performance last night. I'll start off with the injury,
Speaker 1: and this came from inside injuries. Earlier today, Steelers running
Speaker 1: back James Conner suffered an A C joint injury, as
Speaker 1: you mentioned, Greg, While it will be painful for the
Speaker 1: next few weeks, he should be able to play through it,
Speaker 1: so we'll we'll continue to monitor this situation. He has
Speaker 1: dealt with a lot of injuries already this year. UM,
Speaker 1: some knee stuff, some ankle stuff as well. He's got
Speaker 1: the shoulder now, but he has for the most part,
Speaker 1: play through a lot of these injuries. That's why a
Speaker 1: lot of people are excited about picking up Jalen Samuel's
Speaker 1: right now, who Mike Tomlin said is going to be
Speaker 1: ready to go four week nine. So we'll talk about
Speaker 1: him in a little bit. But I thought that James
Speaker 1: Conner was phenomenal last night. Twenty three carries, a hundred
Speaker 1: and forty five yards six point three yards per carry, touchdown,
Speaker 1: added a few receptions as well. Had three catches only
Speaker 1: five yards, but in PPR he'll take every reception. You
Speaker 1: can get. Twenty six total touches for James Conner in
Speaker 1: this game, the next closest and he's still with five.
Speaker 1: So I feel pretty good about James Conner being the
Speaker 1: work course for this team, assuming he is healthy. He
Speaker 1: was great last night. Yeah, James Connor was fantastic. Again.
Speaker 1: You had to see Um not taking for great of salt.
Speaker 1: Remember they didn't face that Dolphins defense as pitiful, So
Speaker 1: James Conner, a good offensive line in front of the
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers had a lot of room to run last night.
Speaker 1: It won't always be so plentiful for him, Um, but
Speaker 1: clearly the guy Benny Snow was also hurt last night.
Speaker 1: Jaylen Samuel out there in waivers, is he your favorite
Speaker 1: waiver wire pick up this week? Probably at the running
Speaker 1: back position. I think it's close between him and Mark Walton.
Speaker 1: I put out the poll before the show, Greg, and
Speaker 1: surprisingly everybody is all over Jalen Samuel's as the top
Speaker 1: waiver wire add There are already sixty seven votes on
Speaker 1: the poll, Greg, and sixty four percent say Jalen Samuels
Speaker 1: is the top waiver Wire add this week. I think
Speaker 1: that's with the assumption that you know, James Conner might
Speaker 1: be missing time. But based on everything we've read so far,
Speaker 1: it looks like James Conner is going to be good
Speaker 1: to go. But I think it's close between him and
Speaker 1: Mark Walton. I understand that Miami Dolphins are a terrible team,
Speaker 1: but Walton played a ton last night. Seven percent of
Speaker 1: the snaps, he had eleven carries. He had six targets
Speaker 1: as well, so seventeen running back opportunities. I understand it's
Speaker 1: a bad team, bad offensive line, but you've got some
Speaker 1: good matchups coming up. He's gonna face the Jets a
Speaker 1: couple of times here, so I think it's close between
Speaker 1: Samuels and Walton, and then I also really really like
Speaker 1: Chris Connley at the wide receiver position, but we talk
Speaker 1: about that a little bit later. Again, all of these guys,
Speaker 1: specifically the last night, I certainly kid an eye on
Speaker 1: Mark Walton and Kylen Blaj just the you shaid as
Speaker 1: you said, Mark Wonton. Some pers on the snaps last night,
Speaker 1: like Caim malaged to get involved in the wildcat inside
Speaker 1: the red zone at one point. The problem is this
Speaker 1: Nolvin's team is so bad and their offensive line is terrible,
Speaker 1: and they're gonna be behind every game. The upside for
Speaker 1: Mark Walton, it's just capped, Like I get it, Like
Speaker 1: you want a a flex play potentially in a bye week,
Speaker 1: that's all Mark Walton is good for. So like, I
Speaker 1: can't even break the bank for a guy like Walton,
Speaker 1: even though he's a starter, because I think that upside
Speaker 1: is just so so limited, that is fair. And Jalen
Speaker 1: Samuel's upside is higher assuming that James Conner would have
Speaker 1: miss time, but I don't know that we can really
Speaker 1: assume that right now, So I think it's it's the
Speaker 1: possibility that's kind of looming inside of people's minds right now,
Speaker 1: and undoubtedly there's more upside if you are the Steelers
Speaker 1: featured running back as opposed to being the Dolphins featured
Speaker 1: running back. So we'll pay attention to that. But if
Speaker 1: it if it comes down to, you know, having to
Speaker 1: spend a big amount of your fat budget at this
Speaker 1: point in the season on Jalen Samuel's giving the information
Speaker 1: that we have, I don't know that there's that guy
Speaker 1: this week that you want to spend a ton of
Speaker 1: fab on. And thankfully we don't have a Tai Johnson
Speaker 1: situation either because that did not work out Greg. But
Speaker 1: up trade Carson, maybe we'll get to that. He's on
Speaker 1: the list. I know he's on the list. Let's come
Speaker 1: all the guys um I think worth talking about as well.
Speaker 1: We'll hetting all that. Will also going to hit up
Speaker 1: the streaming quarterbacks. What about James What about Jujuice Smith
Speaker 1: Schuster from last night? It looked really good obviously Mason Ruff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that first story was brutal. I mean just lofted it
Speaker 1: up there for Xavien Howard. Got lucky that Xavian Howard
Speaker 1: actually left the game, or else he might have had
Speaker 1: more in receptions later on. But Juju comes through again.
Speaker 1: Really great matchup, nine targets, five receptions, a hundred and
Speaker 1: three yards in a touchdown. Is this your cell high
Speaker 1: opportunity for Juju Smith Schuster, I would absolutely think so,
Speaker 1: no question about it. They played at brutal Miami defense.
Speaker 1: Mason rut Up under threw a ton of passage, Judicmith
Speaker 1: Schuster had a couple of catches, great cashes in traffic.
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely using this opportunity, Schuster hide, Let's take a
Speaker 1: break year. When we come back, we'll dive fully into
Speaker 1: the way of a wire. We'll see what we can find.
Speaker 1: We'll give you some prices to spend, and we'll hopefully
Speaker 1: make your teams better. That's the goal of today's program.
Speaker 1: It's the BFFs on the Fantasy Sports right here now, work.
Speaker 1: Are you ready for the nation's first and only free,
Speaker 1: twenty four hour network dedicated to you the betting and
Speaker 1: fantasy sports enthusiast. Sports Grade will provide you with a
Speaker 1: real time content, statistics and gaming intelligence unlike anything you've
Speaker 1: ever seen before. Located both in the heart of New
Speaker 1: York City and inside the FanDuel Sports Book at the
Speaker 1: meadow Lands. Sports Crade is live eighteen hours a day.
Speaker 1: Here to serve you the fanatic. This is sports Grid.
Speaker 1: Get off the Grid, tie of you man a cbffs
Speaker 1: here on Sportscreen TV. Get on the Grid, Frank, you
Speaker 1: gotta get on the grid. Gotta get on the grida.
Speaker 1: Get on the Grid reminds me of the guy from
Speaker 1: the movie. I forgot what movie it's from. I think
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna talk about like, uh, eight Crazy Nights.
Speaker 1: That's a technical foul. That's a I love that. It's
Speaker 1: a great movie, Crazy Nights. It's a really good movie.
Speaker 1: I always watched it around. Uh, once we get into December,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna watch that. You gotta get on
Speaker 1: the Grid. Yeah, it's a technical foul. Oh, Greg, We're
Speaker 1: how many people just left? Probably too many? Probably too many.
Speaker 1: Let's pick it up some fantasy advice. It's a waiver
Speaker 1: wire Tuesday, Frank, let's break it down. We began at
Speaker 1: the running back position where I mentioned Jalen Samuel's earlier.
Speaker 1: If he's out there on the waiver wire, how much
Speaker 1: you spending because you're not gonna know anything else about
Speaker 1: James Conner than we do right now. If your waivers
Speaker 1: go through tonight, it is what it is, how much
Speaker 1: you're spending on Jail Samuels. It's gonna be higher if
Speaker 1: I am maybe James Conner owner. Obviously, and as of now,
Speaker 1: Jalen Samuels only owning twenty one percent of yahoole so
Speaker 1: he is out there in a in a good majority.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking seven eight percent something like that. You know, again,
Speaker 1: I'm not breaking the bank. I don't think that we
Speaker 1: have a Ti Johnson situation this week, hopefully. I don't
Speaker 1: know if we should consider Ty Johnson. I don't know
Speaker 1: if we should consider Ty Johnson like the player that
Speaker 1: we spend up for or the player that we spend
Speaker 1: up for and just get wrong every single week. But ultimately,
Speaker 1: I don't think that we have that player that we're
Speaker 1: spending a massive amount of our budget for. Jel Samuels.
Speaker 1: To me, he's seven eight percent if you really really
Speaker 1: need him, if you're James Connor owner, I could see
Speaker 1: going ten percent, maybe eleven. But ultimately we saw before
Speaker 1: even before he got hurt, he had that one game
Speaker 1: on Moday Night Football where they started running the wildcat
Speaker 1: greg and they really got him involved and they were
Speaker 1: doing all these little shovel passes um where he got
Speaker 1: a bunch of receptions. But then the next game he
Speaker 1: had three carries for two yards. He didn't do any
Speaker 1: think he wasn't catching any passes, he wasn't involved, they
Speaker 1: weren't running the wildcats. So I'm not really sure what
Speaker 1: to expect moving forward outside of the fact that, yes,
Speaker 1: there is upside with Janalen Samuels if James Connor were
Speaker 1: to misstime. But even if James Connor plays in this
Speaker 1: game and he's limited, I would still expect him to
Speaker 1: see a majority of the work, probably around you know,
Speaker 1: fifteen to seventeen touches and then maybe Janalen Samuels sees
Speaker 1: six to eight, six to ten, something like that. So
Speaker 1: I don't think you're breaking the bank. I'm looking at
Speaker 1: seven eight percent. I'm not breaking the bank. But as
Speaker 1: you said back on Monday, Jen Samuel had that amazing
Speaker 1: game you reference, and I think, knowing that Connor will
Speaker 1: be a bit limited, he's gonna have a big role.
Speaker 1: And I think the Steelers and Mike Tomland or I
Speaker 1: would hope I saw what we saw last night that
Speaker 1: makes Rudolph against stinks and they're gonna want to utilize
Speaker 1: Jalen Samuels. They're calling a percent healthy right now in
Speaker 1: this game. I want Jalen Samuel's a Connor owner or not.
Speaker 1: Like I said, I am sorry. Like you said, I
Speaker 1: agree that seven cent makes sense if you're James Connor
Speaker 1: or owner. I sprinkle on Trey Edmund just in case. Maybe,
Speaker 1: I mean, we have to see what's going on with
Speaker 1: Benny Snell as well. He left last night with a
Speaker 1: knee injury. But now we're talking about potentially four running
Speaker 1: backs in the mix for the tracks Fury Steelers. Not
Speaker 1: that all of them are going to be in the
Speaker 1: mix on a weekly basis, but all of it is
Speaker 1: dependent on how hurt the players for the Steelers actually
Speaker 1: are right now. James Conner again limited to start the week. Um,
Speaker 1: we'll help see what's going on with Benny Snell as well.
Speaker 1: Maybe if you're in a deeper league, one of these
Speaker 1: high stakes leagues where you have eight or nine bench spots,
Speaker 1: you can look at, you know, a very very small
Speaker 1: bid on Trey Edmonds if you are a James Connor owner.
Speaker 1: But outside of that, not really much interest. I mentioned
Speaker 1: Mark Walton before as well. If he's out there on
Speaker 1: the way over wire, how much you spending again, I
Speaker 1: think a similar amount to Jalen Samuels, maybe even a
Speaker 1: little bit less, five to six percent. If you really
Speaker 1: really need a flex this week, there are four teams
Speaker 1: on a buy with the Falcons, Bengals, Rams, and Saints,
Speaker 1: So if you're really desperate, you know seven eight percent.
Speaker 1: But again, this is one of the worst offensive lines
Speaker 1: in the NFL, one of the worst offenses in the NFL,
Speaker 1: which means they're likely playing from behind in a lot
Speaker 1: of games, which means they're throwing the football, and a
Speaker 1: lot of times they're throwing the football to Preston Williams
Speaker 1: and throwing the ball to Davanta Parker. I really like
Speaker 1: the six targets from Mark Walton last night, so that
Speaker 1: helps him have value in PPR leagues. Obviously played eight
Speaker 1: seven percent of the snaps uh and Kenyan Drake leaves
Speaker 1: behind fifcent of the target share. He's now in Arizona.
Speaker 1: UM I'm looking at anywhere from five to eight percent,
Speaker 1: eight percent being the more aggressive side. But again, you've
Speaker 1: got a temporary expectations. Even with the starting running back
Speaker 1: for the Miami Dolphins. Yeah, for me, Like I said,
Speaker 1: just not somebody I I really want to go after,
Speaker 1: not somebody I want to invest in. He's absolutely desperation.
Speaker 1: And I think if you're using Mark Woon as a
Speaker 1: flexi what you're going to do, most likely you probably
Speaker 1: can find some wide receivers you have a better chance
Speaker 1: to get of getting the end zone the Mark Wallon, Right, Like,
Speaker 1: who would you rather own, for instance, E. J. Brown
Speaker 1: or Mark Wallen? I think that's comparable. Yeah, a J.
Speaker 1: Browne I would rather go with a J. Brown. I
Speaker 1: mean the way that Tannehill is playing, not that he's
Speaker 1: you know, lighting up the scoreboard by any means, but
Speaker 1: he has throwing three touchdowns and back to back games.
Speaker 1: One of those touchdowns this week was to A J.
Speaker 1: Brown the week before if he led the team with
Speaker 1: seven or eight targets, whatever it was. So I do
Speaker 1: like A J. Brown. Um, he's been making plays. I
Speaker 1: just want to see more consistent targets for him. Again,
Speaker 1: expected more for him going up against the Tampa Bay
Speaker 1: Bucks defense this week, but I think that is comparable. Actually,
Speaker 1: if you remember our guy Derek Brown greg before the season,
Speaker 1: we did our Bears preview with Derek Brown. I tweeted
Speaker 1: out the usage for the Dolphins running backs earlier today,
Speaker 1: and he actually said exactly what you said. He said,
Speaker 1: give me a wide receiver that's seeing five to seven
Speaker 1: targets with a decent average depth of target, and I'll
Speaker 1: take that player over Mark Walton. I think it just
Speaker 1: makes sense, alright. Other running backs that could be out
Speaker 1: there here this week, Frank we measure where he most
Speaker 1: on yesterday's program. The four Niners didn't practice yesterday. They
Speaker 1: played on Thursday nights, but they have to release a
Speaker 1: practice report for some BS reason. Um today they will
Speaker 1: practice tomorrow. They have a walkers Today is the big
Speaker 1: A for Matt Brita for he Mosters, for Jeff Wilson,
Speaker 1: none of them who have been ruled out. Brito was
Speaker 1: actually given a limited tag yesterday, which is like a
Speaker 1: theoretical tags, as was Raheem Moster precisely today. Like I said,
Speaker 1: these teams actually practice, so we'll see who is out
Speaker 1: there for both the nine Years and the Cardinals a
Speaker 1: limit later on today, and that's when you're probably gonna
Speaker 1: make your decision based on where he most like. I
Speaker 1: don't know that that Brin will be available, ask Virginia
Speaker 1: probably on Thursday. Um, but I Moster is out there
Speaker 1: and you're a Matt Brita owner. How much she's spending
Speaker 1: Probably in a similar range of some of these guys,
Speaker 1: five to six percent if you want to be a
Speaker 1: little bit more aggressive, But not really. Again, there's no
Speaker 1: running backs that I feel great about spending double digit
Speaker 1: percentage of my fab on this week at least. But
Speaker 1: Rahee Moster looked. He was great again in Week eight,
Speaker 1: nine rushes for sixty yards, including a forty one yard touchdown.
Speaker 1: This guy now has ninety five career carries. He's averaging
Speaker 1: six point four yards per carry. Kyle Sanahan, all he
Speaker 1: does is produced fantasy viable running backs for he Mostart
Speaker 1: is one of those running backs, so I'm definitely interested.
Speaker 1: The forty Niners offensive line, even without their starting tackles,
Speaker 1: is third in the NFL in adjusted line yards per
Speaker 1: Football Outsiders. They have the third best run blocking offensive
Speaker 1: line with injuries to their starting tackles, so it's just crazy.
Speaker 1: They're playing lights out football right now. They're playing with leads,
Speaker 1: which has led to them running the football even more.
Speaker 1: Their ten point favorites for this game against Arizona if
Speaker 1: Matt Breta cannot go in this game, or even if
Speaker 1: he's limited, I think Mostart is in play as a flex.
Speaker 1: You might argue that even if Matt Brida plays, getting
Speaker 1: the seven to ten touches out of Mostart in the
Speaker 1: San Francisco offense is better than anything you'll get out
Speaker 1: of Mark wall Absolutely, I totally agree with you. In
Speaker 1: a game where the Niners should dominate against the Cardinals
Speaker 1: a short week, not Breda is going to be limited,
Speaker 1: and if the game script goes how we expected to
Speaker 1: a short week, why would they play Matt Brida? Be honest,
Speaker 1: I agree, I mean, who knows, but especially what Tavin
Speaker 1: Cowan's playing like, there's no reason to play Matt Brida,
Speaker 1: which means most a much more viable flex in my
Speaker 1: opinion than Mark Walton is because he's going to have
Speaker 1: a chance more opportunities to find the end zone, and
Speaker 1: that's what you're looking for out of that desperation FLEXI play.
Speaker 1: And we just saw what let's Savus Murray did against
Speaker 1: this Arizona Cardinals defense as well, a hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: seven total yards, nine receptions and two touchdowns. So obviously
Speaker 1: we loved Tevin Coleman for that match up on Thursday.
Speaker 1: But pay attention to this Brita and Raheem Mostert situation.
Speaker 1: I'm very very interested, Greg, absolutely something you definitely want
Speaker 1: to look to tonight when you get the practice reports
Speaker 1: from Arizona and from San Francisco. Any other running backs
Speaker 1: were picking up this week? Yeah, I have a few
Speaker 1: names mentioned that we were going to talk a little
Speaker 1: bit about Trey Carson. Everybody was tilting on Sunday morning, Greg,
Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon, when the when the first drive, the first
Speaker 1: couple of drives are going to Tray Carson, who the
Speaker 1: Detroit Lions actually picked up from their a f C
Speaker 1: North rivals off the Green Bay Packers. Packers practice squad.
Speaker 1: Ti Johnson still lead this team with of the snaps,
Speaker 1: they had four running backs involved, very frustrating situation. Ty Johnson,
Speaker 1: Trey Carson, J D mckiss, Paul Perkins nine percent. Carson
Speaker 1: led the team with twelve carries. Detroit only had one
Speaker 1: red zone rushing attempt that went to Tray Carson as well.
Speaker 1: They're facing the Oakland Raiders this week, who have actually
Speaker 1: been better against the run. But if you picked up
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson and you are desperate again more of a
Speaker 1: deeperly add You can look at Tray Carson, a few
Speaker 1: names that I'll bring up, Greg and maybe we kind
Speaker 1: of talk about these guys a little bit when we
Speaker 1: come back from the break, various guys and Darryl Henderson
Speaker 1: as STASH candidates. Yeah, we certainly mentioned them. I also
Speaker 1: want to get into the wide receivers on the other
Speaker 1: side of the break, and even all over Chris Conley
Speaker 1: this week we'll tell you how much to spend on him.
Speaker 1: That's other guys, that's where they're looking at the Waiver

Speaker 1: Before we want on the wide receivers Frankie Imagined. You
Speaker 1: want to hit up on Darius Guice and some other
Speaker 1: running backs before we move on. Now, start off with
Speaker 1: Darius Guys. Adrian Peterson has average nineteen rushing attempts for
Speaker 1: games since Bill Callahan has took over as the interim
Speaker 1: head coach in Washington. It's clear that they want to
Speaker 1: run the football. He was back on the practice field yesterday,
Speaker 1: eligible to return in week eleven, So if he's still
Speaker 1: available on your waiver wire, look at the stashing him
Speaker 1: right now. Um. I'm not sure that Washington will be
Speaker 1: playing with a lot of leads, but as they've shown us,
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter. They're still to try and run
Speaker 1: the football regardless of what the score is. We saw
Speaker 1: that last week on Thursday Night Football against the Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 1: As for Darryl Henderson, Greg whatever is going on with
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley, it's clear there's something because he's averaging a
Speaker 1: career low three point nine yards per carry. I understand
Speaker 1: the offensive line is not what it has been in
Speaker 1: years past, but he just went up against the Cincinnati
Speaker 1: Bengals and that is one of, if not the best
Speaker 1: matchup you can have for a running back, and even
Speaker 1: against them, he did not look great. He's averaging just
Speaker 1: fifty point seven rushing yards per game, both that and
Speaker 1: his yards per carry this season or a career low.
Speaker 1: He is on pace for just thirty two receptions this season.
Speaker 1: So whatever is going on for Girly, you know, maybe
Speaker 1: the bye week will help him rest up and get
Speaker 1: right for the second half. But just in case, Darryl
Speaker 1: Henderson has run more efficiently than Girly recently, Greg and
Speaker 1: he's actually starting to creep into the snapshare as well.
Speaker 1: Girly this past week played of the snaps Darryl Henderson
Speaker 1: percent of the snap. Is there a chance after the
Speaker 1: bye then Malcolm Brown is back, There is a chance,
Speaker 1: But I think that we're starting to see them turn
Speaker 1: that back up roll over to Darryl Henderson as we saw.
Speaker 1: I don't know about that, man. I mean, it's in
Speaker 1: the season. They wanted Darryl Henderson to be a thing.
Speaker 1: He just wasn't. He didn't pick up on the offensive
Speaker 1: system quick enough for Sean McVeigh and the Los Angeles Rams.
Speaker 1: But they spent a third round pick on Darryl Henderson,
Speaker 1: and I think that they like him, and I think
Speaker 1: that they want to get him involved. And if anything,
Speaker 1: were to happen to Todd Gurley. Darryl Henderson does legitimately
Speaker 1: have r B two value. I'm not as worried about
Speaker 1: Malcolm Brown maybe as you are. Greg. And then we
Speaker 1: have to mention the situation that's going on with the
Speaker 1: Jets right now. We alluded to it earlier on in
Speaker 1: the show. J E t s just end the season
Speaker 1: right now. They're shopping everybody, but one name that has
Speaker 1: been rumored is Levian Bell. Obviously, if you're listening to
Speaker 1: this later on in the day past the trade deadline,
Speaker 1: you'll know whether or not Levian Bell has already been
Speaker 1: traded or not. If that is the case, obviously you'll
Speaker 1: want to pick up Time Montgomery, and even in deeper leagues,
Speaker 1: look at ball all Powell. I know the that Levian
Speaker 1: Bell has not been able to do much behind his
Speaker 1: Jets offensive line, but they do have a really, really
Speaker 1: good schedule upcoming, so even Time Montgomery should be able
Speaker 1: to take advantage of some of these matchups against the
Speaker 1: Dolphins and the Bengals. For example, Greg intentionally, sir, right,
Speaker 1: let's be one of the wide receiver's gonna break. I
Speaker 1: mentioned Chris Connley, who's did a nice job with the
Speaker 1: Jaguars the season Gardner Min she's locked on onto him
Speaker 1: and d J. Shark Connelly's out there in a lot
Speaker 1: of places. I much you're spending. I'm thinking a similar
Speaker 1: amount to what I mentioned for the running backs five
Speaker 1: to eight percent and Greg when we say five to
Speaker 1: eight percent, I kind of wanted to ask you and
Speaker 1: pick your brain about this. Is that from what your
Speaker 1: original budget is or is it of your remaining budget?
Speaker 1: Because I always really do it based on how what
Speaker 1: you started with. So, for example, I have twenty four
Speaker 1: dollars left in my home league. If I say I'm
Speaker 1: willing to spend five to eight percent of my budget
Speaker 1: on Chris Conley, I'm thinking five to eight dollars is
Speaker 1: how you look at it. I totally agree. I totally
Speaker 1: don't agree you when you say if I have to
Speaker 1: eight I always talk about the original numbers you have,
Speaker 1: you know, a hundred we start with a hundred bucks,
Speaker 1: and you're telling me five to eight percent. I'm all right,
Speaker 1: So spending like six seven dollars here on Jalen Samuel's
Speaker 1: roll and Chris Conley or whoever you have a thousand dollars,
Speaker 1: you're you're looking like that. That's exactly right. So that's
Speaker 1: what I'm thinking for Chris Connley as well. D D.
Speaker 1: Westbrook dealing with the next slash shoulder injury right now.
Speaker 1: He left the game early. We don't know what his
Speaker 1: availability is going to be yet four week nine, but
Speaker 1: it's a really good matchup going up against the Houston
Speaker 1: Texans to allow the third most fantasy points to opposing
Speaker 1: wide receivers. They just allowed ten receptions, two one yards,
Speaker 1: and two touchdowns to Oakland wide receivers Hunter Rent. For
Speaker 1: of all people, Chris Conley, uh and t J. Chark
Speaker 1: played fifty five snaps each. They both ran thirty eight
Speaker 1: routes this past week, Greg and over the past two weeks,
Speaker 1: Chris Connley see of the target share thirty nine percent
Speaker 1: of their air yards. He just had a seventy yard
Speaker 1: touchdown against the Jets. I am very interested in Chris Conley.
Speaker 1: He's playing more seeing the targets and it's a good matchup.
Speaker 1: He's playing a lot. I know they have a bye
Speaker 1: next week right week, so this is a potentially short term.
Speaker 1: It's potentially a one week play, and I'd rather have
Speaker 1: Chris Conley in the running match. We're talking about earlier,
Speaker 1: like the Mark Walton's Jalen Samuel especially Connor plays um
Speaker 1: no need West potentially no market's lead. Potentially, it's going
Speaker 1: to be legitimately as much Chris Conney and d J.
Speaker 1: Jark as you can handle, which makes Connie and a
Speaker 1: really good spot this week. Yeah, he's my top wide receiver.
Speaker 1: And I've seen some people some people talking about Deonta
Speaker 1: Johnson as well. Great, who would you rather have between
Speaker 1: Chris Conley and Deontay Johnson. So there's clearly an affinity
Speaker 1: for Deontay Johnson basic that that's that's real. In the
Speaker 1: five games they've played, Deonta Johnson cent of the target
Speaker 1: chair and scored three touchdowns in five games. Was supposed
Speaker 1: to be the James Washington OSU connection. No, I don't
Speaker 1: remember that. Craig, let's quickly, let's quickly sweep that one
Speaker 1: under the rug. Did you know that C. J. Bethard
Speaker 1: went to Iowa with George Gee? I did know that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: because that was that was a storyline last year when
Speaker 1: when they started taking off. I brought it up, Frank,
Speaker 1: the os U thing in the Iowa thing. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: we we like the Bethrood and the Kittle thing um
Speaker 1: James Washington. I don't even know who you're talking about,
Speaker 1: all right, cool anyway or is My friends would call
Speaker 1: him j beat had beat hard. It is pretty funny.
Speaker 1: I enjoy it. I prefer Chris Coney over Man. It's
Speaker 1: not a bad matchup this week. The Steelers are going
Speaker 1: up against the Cold Sale, the twelfth most fantasy points
Speaker 1: to opposing wide receivers. But Deonta Johnson looked pretty good
Speaker 1: again last night, seven targets, five for eighty four and one.
Speaker 1: I think the Steelers found a little bit a little
Speaker 1: bit of something here with Deonta Johnson. They continue to
Speaker 1: draft wide receiver as well greg they do. But I
Speaker 1: also do want to say that the Steelers through thereby
Speaker 1: Jacksonville has that by next week. If you're looking longer term,
Speaker 1: may prefer Deontay Johnson, especially if you're desperate for a
Speaker 1: wide receiver three or you have a lot of bye
Speaker 1: weeks coming up players on by this week or next week,
Speaker 1: and you you might want to look more so into
Speaker 1: Deontay Johnson. But I really really do like Chris Connley
Speaker 1: for this matchup. I look into him for DFS as well,
Speaker 1: I also think that number that you want to spend,
Speaker 1: and you said again along those lines, I think you
Speaker 1: also have to think about like when you would utilize
Speaker 1: this player or how you utilize You're gonna start Chris Conley.
Speaker 1: You can go over that number, like you need him
Speaker 1: this week, you want to play eleven percent from him?
Speaker 1: I I get it. Like that, that's fine us that warranted, though, Greg,
Speaker 1: I think this brings up a philosophy question for waiver wire.
Speaker 1: Is it warranted spending that much money for a player
Speaker 1: that you're only going to use one week? But if
Speaker 1: you expect that player to have a monster game and
Speaker 1: they help you win that week and it's a much
Speaker 1: needed win, it might be worth it. So my answer
Speaker 1: is yes, his warrant you know'll give you two examples.
Speaker 1: One was from either Week two or three this year
Speaker 1: where every Eagle wide receiver went down on a Sunday.
Speaker 1: The only one remaining they played on Thursday against Packers
Speaker 1: was Nelson. We all knew he was going to have
Speaker 1: He was the only wide receiver standing, right, So you
Speaker 1: had to spend whatever it took. And instead of spending
Speaker 1: the probably six seven eight dollars you should have if
Speaker 1: you spent fifteen you felt okay about it because Adler
Speaker 1: did exactly what you wanted him to do. That's one example.
Speaker 1: The other example didn't necessarily work out as well, but
Speaker 1: the thought process was there. Last week, everyone spent fifteen
Speaker 1: on Kenny Still with the thought that he was gonna
Speaker 1: blow up last week I guess Oakland, and then this
Speaker 1: week before the bye he could do it again against Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: I know it's in London, but like you thought, Kenny
Speaker 1: Stills has an opportunity to really have a huge two
Speaker 1: weeks for you and maybe win you a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks before thereby next week before Will Fuller probably comes
Speaker 1: back after that by. So my answer is, if you're
Speaker 1: going to start him and you're expecting a blow up spot, absolutely,
Speaker 1: I have no issue going five percent over our recommended number. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I think we're in lockstep there too. I mean,
Speaker 1: as much as we've talked about Chris Conley already, it's
Speaker 1: a really really good spot. Again, we should see some
Speaker 1: points back and forth here between the Jaguars and the
Speaker 1: Texas Gardner Minshew is playing well and they've developed quite
Speaker 1: a connection. So I'm with you on that one totally.
Speaker 1: We'll see. Uh So, anyways, Chris Connley again this week.
Speaker 1: If you want to spend over and make sure you
Speaker 1: get it and make sure you put him in ahead,
Speaker 1: do it. If I would rather have a one week
Speaker 1: fill in Chris Conley over Deanta Johnson. But if you
Speaker 1: need somebody that you're hoping to start a little bit
Speaker 1: longer term, Deontay Johnson maybe the guy. I think that
Speaker 1: makes sense. And I'll bring up a few more wide
Speaker 1: receivers here for you as well, Greg, before you laugh,
Speaker 1: before you get mad at me, and wait for this.
Speaker 1: Danny ammondla the us of Danny Amendola eight receptions in
Speaker 1: back to back games. I don't think that we can
Speaker 1: just ignore what's going on right now with with Danny
Speaker 1: Emmon doing in the Detroit Lions back to back games, Gregg.
Speaker 1: During that span, he leads the Detroit Lions and targets
Speaker 1: twenty five percent of their target share, played of their
Speaker 1: snaps during that span as well. And I want exposure
Speaker 1: to the Detroit Lions passing attack, Greg, They currently ranked
Speaker 1: fifth in the NFL two eighty two points seven passing
Speaker 1: yards per game. Danny Amendol is going up against the
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders. You want to talk about a player you
Speaker 1: might only play for one week, that's perfectly fine. The
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders are allowing the fourth most fantasy points to
Speaker 1: wide receivers this season. We just saw DeAndre Hopkins have
Speaker 1: a big game. We were expecting a bigger game out
Speaker 1: of Kenny Stills. It didn't come. But I think based
Speaker 1: on the usage of Danny Amendol these past two weeks,
Speaker 1: Greg the fact that he has eight receptions in each
Speaker 1: of these past two games, and it's a good spot
Speaker 1: against Oakland. I do like Danny Amendola in the spot.
Speaker 1: Probably not gonna do the Danny Amendol thing unless you're
Speaker 1: absolutely desperate. Well, I like, you know, two to three
Speaker 1: to three bucks. Couple of other names worth mentioning. Alex
Speaker 1: Ericson could be a security blanket for new Cincinnative Anglo
Speaker 1: starter Ryan Finley and Dalton Bench on his birthday during
Speaker 1: the bye Ericson won't cost you much. I probably would
Speaker 1: wait till midwek to pick him up because if he's
Speaker 1: still out there, probably not picking him up with a
Speaker 1: bye week this week, So alex Ericson certainly long term name.
Speaker 1: Another name I want to mention this to Marius Thomas.
Speaker 1: If Robbie Anderson has traded in the next hour and
Speaker 1: a half to Marius Thomas along with Jamison Crowdig with
Speaker 1: the one A and one B four Sam Donald, We've
Speaker 1: seen to Marius Thomas targets be pretty steady around five
Speaker 1: since Donald returning the stary in the lineup. I think
Speaker 1: to Marius Thomas, if he's out there, worth pickup. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that makes a lot of sense. And the
Speaker 1: Jets are shopping everyone again. We we just spoke about
Speaker 1: this and Robby Anderson is up for sale as well.
Speaker 1: The upcoming schedule the Dolphins, the Giants. Domminson out is
Speaker 1: Adien Hour who's been put on I R. You've been
Speaker 1: put on I R so used. I mean you're using
Speaker 1: every player against the Dolphins anyway, but specifically wide receiver
Speaker 1: is going to be very valuable. The Dolphins, Giants, Washington, Oakland, Cincinnati,
Speaker 1: Miami Again. The next three games coming up for the
Speaker 1: New York Tests are really good. So I agree with
Speaker 1: Greg pay attention to Damarrius Thomas. Absolutely right. We'll take
Speaker 1: a break when we come back. The streaming portion of
Speaker 1: the program Quarterbacks, tight ends, and defenses. We'll tell you
Speaker 1: what we're thinking next. Are you ready for the nation's
Speaker 1: first and only free, twenty four hour network dedicated to you,
Speaker 1: the betting and fantasy sports enthusiast. Sports Grade will provide
Speaker 1: you with a real time content, statistics and gaming intelligence
Speaker 1: unlike anything you've ever seen before. Located both in the
Speaker 1: heart of New York City and inside the FanDuel Sports
Speaker 1: Book at the Metal Ends, sports Crade's live eighteen hours
Speaker 1: a day here to serve you the fanatic. This is
Speaker 1: Sports Grade, get off the grid, bag with you final
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes or so the program here. They're loyal watchers
Speaker 1: and news so they now fifteen minutes ago, Greg, let's go,
Speaker 1: so they know the wider series. And we didn't get
Speaker 1: a chance to mention yet. I did want to mention
Speaker 1: Josh Reynolds as another STASH candidate here. Brandon Cooks dealing
Speaker 1: with his second concussion of the season. We saw Sterling
Speaker 1: Shepard suffer from his second concussion and missed three games
Speaker 1: in a row, So personally I think that Brandon Cooks
Speaker 1: is going to miss some time. This is more of
Speaker 1: a deeper league stash. But Josh Reynolds first game in
Speaker 1: here played eighty nine percent of the Snash ran thirty
Speaker 1: one routes on thirty four Jared Golf dropbacks, Josh Reynolds
Speaker 1: seventy three yards and a touchdown in that game. Greg
Speaker 1: eight targets, so came in and was was instantly targeted
Speaker 1: more than Robert Woods and Gerald Everett had three red
Speaker 1: zone targets and two end zone targets last year when
Speaker 1: he took over for Cooper Cup from week eleven on,
Speaker 1: he was wide receiver thirty five overall. So I think
Speaker 1: there's some value with Josh Reynolds Reynolds in deeper leagues.
Speaker 1: Zach Pascal, I understand the production was there this past week,
Speaker 1: but he actually just played a season high of the snaps.
Speaker 1: He ran thirty four routes on thirty seven to Kobe
Speaker 1: Brissette drop backs, which was also a season high for him.
Speaker 1: So I think, Zach Pascal, if we continue to see
Speaker 1: him play this much, the production will come. He had
Speaker 1: a pretty good connection with which Kobe Persette going into
Speaker 1: last week of the production just wasn't there. The Broncos
Speaker 1: have been good against wide receivers. The last name I
Speaker 1: threw out there Greg again more of a deeper league,
Speaker 1: Guy Russell, Gauge, our guy Michael Florio, former best friend forever,
Speaker 1: kind of an oxy moron. Russell Gauge is the new
Speaker 1: slot receiver for the Atlanta Falcons. He ran twenty four
Speaker 1: slot routes. He had eight slot targets, six slot receptions,
Speaker 1: and fifty one slot yards he played of the snaps overall,
Speaker 1: I expect after the bye Matt Ryan is back. This
Speaker 1: Falcons defense is still very bad. They're playing from behind
Speaker 1: in a lot of games. They're throwing the ball. That
Speaker 1: means obviously Julio, Calvin Ridley, and Houston Hooper are gonna
Speaker 1: get there's but there might be some targets available for
Speaker 1: Russell Gauge as well. We saw Mohammedan who have value
Speaker 1: earlier on in the season. You mentioned Austin Hoover, Austin
Speaker 1: Whover on a by this week, so people are going
Speaker 1: to need to replace him at the tite end spot,
Speaker 1: and also, well all the other side ends in the
Speaker 1: league stuck, so you need a new side end. Who's
Speaker 1: the number one guy this week? So I think that
Speaker 1: there's a few names that are kind of up for
Speaker 1: discussion here between Chris Herndon, Darren Fells, Dallas Goddard, John
Speaker 1: Who Smith. I think Noah Fan is interesting as well.
Speaker 1: So that's five different tight ends. We'll start off with
Speaker 1: Chris Herndon, Greg Ryan Griffin coming off a game where
Speaker 1: he just scored two touchdowns. He has run a hundred
Speaker 1: and sixty eight routes so far this year at the
Speaker 1: tight end position that ranks seventeen. I kind of wanted
Speaker 1: to bounce this off of you as well. Do you
Speaker 1: think the hype for Chris Herndon is a warranted Greg
Speaker 1: and b when he comes back? Do you think Ryan
Speaker 1: Griffin just completely goes away. He's performed pretty well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Grimming totally goes away. I think Chris Herndon
Speaker 1: um is the number one tight end there. But I
Speaker 1: will say from watching this past week with Griffin scoring
Speaker 1: those two touchdowns, maybe excited any Chris Herndon owner like
Speaker 1: what he could do, especially if this team trade Robby
Speaker 1: Anderson in the next hour or so. Chris Herndon, They're
Speaker 1: gonna really rely on him, and I think he could
Speaker 1: be somebody, And I'm sure I feel like he's ownly
Speaker 1: a lot of places now, but I know there's a
Speaker 1: lot of people banging on Chris Herndon being good at
Speaker 1: least last week in the indication he could be. He's
Speaker 1: only twenty percent owned in Yahoo League, so he is
Speaker 1: available there. I'll throwout Darren Fells obviously, uh the thirty
Speaker 1: three year old breakout season here for Darren Fells just
Speaker 1: scored two touchdowns this past week and in their first game.
Speaker 1: This is what I found most interesting, Greg, their first
Speaker 1: game without Will Fuller in the lineup here because of
Speaker 1: the injury. He was second on the team and targets.
Speaker 1: We all thought that Kenny Stills was going to be
Speaker 1: that guy. Well it was really Darren Fells who stepped
Speaker 1: up here second on the team and targets, caught all
Speaker 1: six of his targets again, had two touchdowns going up
Speaker 1: against the Jacksonville Jaguars this week. The only the only
Speaker 1: thing that makes me slightly hesitant is that on the
Speaker 1: season he does split time with Jordan Aikins, and Jordan
Speaker 1: Aikins has actually run more routes on the season than
Speaker 1: Darren Fells, So keep that in mind. Greg Dallas Goddard
Speaker 1: yep eating into all of the production for Zach Orts.
Speaker 1: I own zach Ertz in the league. It's been really,
Speaker 1: really frustrating. Over the past three weeks, Dallas Goddard twelve
Speaker 1: receptions dred and thirty nine yards and two touchdowns on
Speaker 1: sixteen targets during that same span, zach Ertz eight receptions,
Speaker 1: one and twelve yards, zero touchdowns on seventeen targets. Goddard
Speaker 1: four red zone targets to UH two end zone targets,
Speaker 1: zach ERT's three red zone targets, zero end zone targets.
Speaker 1: So once they get into that area of the field,
Speaker 1: the teams like they are utilizing Dallas Goddard a little
Speaker 1: bit more, which is crazy because Earth's overall is playing
Speaker 1: way more. He's running way more routes thirty one routes
Speaker 1: for game over these past three while Dallas Goddard is
Speaker 1: only at nineteen point seven. Greg of all these tight
Speaker 1: end names that we mentioned, Chris Herndon, Darren Fells, Dallas Goddard,
Speaker 1: you know, John hu Smith just had a touchdown. But
Speaker 1: Adam Levitts hand pointed this out on Twitter that Anthony
Speaker 1: firkser Ran played a lot of snaps, ran more routes
Speaker 1: high schools and ran more, ran more slot routes as well.
Speaker 1: What I went to my high school, he went to
Speaker 1: here high school and you you and him are boys. Andrew, Oh,
Speaker 1: Andrew Ferkshire went to your high school? So that are
Speaker 1: you interested in Andrew Ferkster? No Smith? Uh? Yeah. So
Speaker 1: all these guys that you've mentioned, they all make sense
Speaker 1: for in their own way, but they all have deficiencies,
Speaker 1: right Like they have another tight end who either plays
Speaker 1: or is targeted, and you just whatever, this is the
Speaker 1: nature of the tight end position. Yeah, it's literally close
Speaker 1: your eyes, point at the screen and pick which everyone comes. Personally,
Speaker 1: I would rank them Chris Herndon, Darren Fells, probably Dallas
Speaker 1: god or over, John Hu Smith de Laney Walker is
Speaker 1: probably going to be back. But they're un They're they're
Speaker 1: utilizing God. Are in the red zone, and that's what
Speaker 1: you want, right Like you want red zone targets your
Speaker 1: tight end. He does. But a lot of these tight
Speaker 1: ends have other tight ends that are also playing, right
Speaker 1: Like Darren Fells has nakeds, John Smith has Anthony Ferkster,
Speaker 1: Lanny Walker, and then there's no a fan who you
Speaker 1: want to be excited about. The eight targets, five receptions,
Speaker 1: all season highs play of the snaps. But now he's
Speaker 1: Brandon Allen as his quarterback. So I mean, unless you
Speaker 1: think Brandon Allen's gonna lean on the tighten. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: I think No A Fan is probably the one that
Speaker 1: goes higher for me than the rest of these guys.
Speaker 1: Chris Herndon's hire you ranking these guys, So Chris Herndon
Speaker 1: will be number one for me, then probably Darren Fells,
Speaker 1: then No A Fan than Johnny Smith, then Dallas Goddard
Speaker 1: for me got her last out of Okay, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have No A Fan lash just because I don't know
Speaker 1: what to expect from Brandon now he's gotta throw to
Speaker 1: somebody he does. But Cortland Sutton's there and he's still
Speaker 1: really good. Play this week they are going up against
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns, so we're taking out cortlandt that makes sense,
Speaker 1: maybe more maybe more no offense, Yeah, yeah, that might
Speaker 1: make sense. He I know the Browns have allowed four
Speaker 1: touchdowns to tight end so far this season as well,
Speaker 1: so I would rank it Herndon, Darren Fells. I still
Speaker 1: think I'd go with Goddard just because of the way
Speaker 1: that they're utilizing him in the red zone. And then
Speaker 1: I'll go to a Fan and then I'll go John
Speaker 1: new Smith. All right, let me go up to the
Speaker 1: quarterback position. If you streat me a quarterback, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of them on by this week. Um, where are
Speaker 1: you looking? I know you talked about this on the
Speaker 1: fan duel. Hurry up yesterday. Where are you looking at?
Speaker 1: Who your top quarterbacks in the market? Yeah, I'm going
Speaker 1: back to the Minshoe musta as Gardner Minshew finished QB
Speaker 1: five in Week eight two hundred and seventy nine yards
Speaker 1: and three touchdowns on the season, actually ranks fifth among
Speaker 1: quarterbacks with two hundred and one rushing yards so far
Speaker 1: this season. Going up against the Texans I mentioned earlier,
Speaker 1: I like Chris Conley. Let's remain consistent. I gotta like
Speaker 1: the guy who's throwing him the ball as well. The
Speaker 1: Texans have allowed three passing touchdowns in four straight games.
Speaker 1: If Gardner Minshew has already owned Derek Carr the Raiders offense,
Speaker 1: Greig is playing really well this year six point two
Speaker 1: yards per play on offense. That's fourth best in the
Speaker 1: entire NFL. Two undred and eighty five yards and three
Speaker 1: touchdowns this past week for Derek Carr and the Lions
Speaker 1: have allowed eight passing touchdowns over their last two games.
Speaker 1: You just saw your boy Danny Johns. Daniel Jones finished
Speaker 1: as the QB one overall. So for me, it's Minshew,
Speaker 1: Derek Carr, and then if you're desperate, Sam Donald's going
Speaker 1: up against the Dolphins. Even Mason Rudolph threw multiple touchdowns
Speaker 1: against this Dolphins defense. Sam Donald has struggled with pressure, Greg,
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins are last in the NFL and pressure
Speaker 1: rate just pressuring the quarterback UM five point two times
Speaker 1: per game, that is the worst in the NFL. I
Speaker 1: know that you're a big fan of the Seeing Ghost comment.
Speaker 1: It's Halloween week, Greg, why not? Why not stream Sam Donald?
Speaker 1: I would have no issue shooting Sam Donald against the
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. No Xavian Howard, as we said he's out
Speaker 1: for the season. Donald could target him. Uh couldn't target
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks for Miami as we saw last night that
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph did. I Mason Rudolph could do it, Sam
Speaker 1: Donald could do it. Good spot obviously for Donald Donald.
Speaker 1: Derek Carr means you clearly the three guys that are
Speaker 1: out there this week, I probably lean Derek Carr over
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew. Um, I'll still take Minshew. I just really
Speaker 1: like that matchup. I think we see points go both ways.
Speaker 1: I think we see a little bit more Greg, we've
Speaker 1: both played super flexings. More interested in Ryan Finley or
Speaker 1: Drew Probably Ryan Finley because Drew locks on the starter
Speaker 1: right now he's not, But I think it sooner rather
Speaker 1: than later we will get Drew lock as he starting quarterback.
Speaker 1: But I do agree with you. I think its super
Speaker 1: flex leagues. They're both worth dashing. Obviously, the Bengals are
Speaker 1: on a bye. They benched Andy Dalton today on his birthday.
Speaker 1: Kind of messed up, I guess, but it is what
Speaker 1: it is there oh and eight and they want to
Speaker 1: see what they have and right on his birthday. What's
Speaker 1: at least he had off on his birthday? That's fine.
Speaker 1: Can I have off on my birthday? A right, it's
Speaker 1: a weekend? Perfect? How about the day before? But you
Speaker 1: can't because I'm off, So you can't be off? Oh oh,
Speaker 1: you just want to take off your wedding, Greg, Maybe
Speaker 1: my birthday is a little bit more. Giving you off
Speaker 1: for your birthday. It's a weekend, you're off. I'm not
Speaker 1: making you work the next day either. I'm working Sundays,
Speaker 1: not that Sunday and I'm working Sundays. You're off that Sunday.
Speaker 1: How about that? Fair enough? Pick up Ryan Finley and
Speaker 1: super flex Leaue. All right, Uh, there's the quarterbacks to
Speaker 1: tight ends. Frankie. Let's move on the defense here. What
Speaker 1: do you think? Obviously, I think the Jets make a
Speaker 1: lot of sense. It's going up against the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 1: They can't block anybody ice. We all saw last night
Speaker 1: in primetime the Steelers continuously getting after Ryan Fitzpatrick. I
Speaker 1: would say that the Steelers have a little bit of
Speaker 1: a better pass for us than the New York Jets,
Speaker 1: but ultimately we should see some sacks and turnovers for
Speaker 1: the j e t S just just end the season
Speaker 1: this week, Craig. I also really like the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 1: They're widely available going up against the Denver Broncos. Normally
Speaker 1: we don't like defenses traveling to Denver altitude, all that
Speaker 1: going on. But ultimately, Brandon Allen not sure what to
Speaker 1: expect from him. I think the Cleveland Browns could have
Speaker 1: some success. The Browns defense hasn't really been their problem,
Speaker 1: it's been their offense. So I do like their defense.
Speaker 1: In this spot. I'll throw a few more out there, Greg,
Speaker 1: and you tell me which one you like the most.
Speaker 1: Seattle going up against Tampa Bay, Jamis Wintern shooting the
Speaker 1: ball over so much. Philadelphia going up against Chicago Drabinsky
Speaker 1: not good, hold onto the ball too long, could get
Speaker 1: some sacks there. And Dallas going up against your New
Speaker 1: York Giants. Settle Vers Tam Madge my favorite out of
Speaker 1: those last three. Tim May, like you said, Jameis Winson
Speaker 1: turnover machine, and that's what we're looking at. He has
Speaker 1: ten turnovers over his last two games. That's what we're
Speaker 1: looking for them, right. You're not just looking for to
Speaker 1: keep the points down. You're looking for the turnovers, and
Speaker 1: that's what Jameis Winston provides. Same with Daniel Jones, who
Speaker 1: has not been able to hold on the football. Once
Speaker 1: you get to him, he seemingly drops the ball constantly,
Speaker 1: so those fumbles will be there. The offensive line has
Speaker 1: been bad for the Giants. Finally, I'll go to Philadelphia
Speaker 1: against Chicago, where we've seen David Montgomery. You have some
Speaker 1: nice games. Obviously Robisky isn't very good and definitely holds
Speaker 1: the ball for too long, but they would be last.
Speaker 1: They would be after Dallas and f of Seattle for me. Great?
Speaker 1: Can I interest you in the Miami Dolphins towing up
Speaker 1: against Sam Donald and the Jets? No, you're not gonna
Speaker 1: do it all right, just started thrown out there. They
Speaker 1: are that bad if you're picking up these players, Frankie,
Speaker 1: obviously you have to drop some players. Let me ask
Speaker 1: you about a couple of guys. You let me know
Speaker 1: if you drop them for some of the hot waiver
Speaker 1: wire ads this week, the wide receivers and the running
Speaker 1: backs that we spoke to. Uh last week, the top
Speaker 1: wide receiver pick it was Kenny Stills, Jack King Stills,
Speaker 1: Chris Conley. Wow, that's a good one. Um, I don't
Speaker 1: think I would. Would you drop? Mexan's offense is just
Speaker 1: that much more explosive. Would you drive any of the
Speaker 1: packer any or all of the packers for Chris Conny
Speaker 1: outside of Davanta Adams? Yes, I would drop all of them. Okay,
Speaker 1: would you drop Let me see, would you would you
Speaker 1: pick up me Cole Hardman. No, he scored a touchdown
Speaker 1: last week, but I just don't think that he's going
Speaker 1: to be involved enough, like they're gonna drop a few
Speaker 1: specific plays for him every single week. But still, Tyreek
Speaker 1: Hill still, Sammy Watkins getting back healthy. Travis Kelsey was involved.
Speaker 1: Um maybe in deeper leagues, but in your normal twelve
Speaker 1: teams or anything. Shallower No, no for me? Fair enough? Um,
Speaker 1: what do you do? Well? We move on? Sorry? Would
Speaker 1: you drop? Would you drop the no? What does it
Speaker 1: make sense? Either? I think good ones and and I'm
Speaker 1: obviously you're struggling here. B. C. Johnson you can obviously
Speaker 1: drop if you picked him up last week. O. J. Howard,
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I'm just like I'm looking to the
Speaker 1: highest dropped candidates right now in Yahoo leagues. Those are
Speaker 1: a few that come to mind. Josh Gordon. Obviously you've drop. Josh.
Speaker 1: My My favorite thing is he with the starting Cameron
Speaker 1: rate last week? So J Howard didn't play and they
Speaker 1: thought like, oh my god, carey right. I'm just like
Speaker 1: I was one of those why you you did this? Well?
Speaker 1: You know what I said? I said he would get
Speaker 1: six and seven targets. He had six time. Remember I
Speaker 1: sat here saying like you do this had a touchdown?
Speaker 1: Is a repeat? Didn't he have like a touchdown dropped
Speaker 1: or called back or something? I feel like you should
Speaker 1: have had a touchdown. Art getting a chance to do
Speaker 1: it over, You're gonna screw it up again. You're like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what you did. There were a lot of
Speaker 1: streaming tight ends last week. Greig camemanb Brady was one
Speaker 1: of the ones that failed. Donna Smith worked out. He's
Speaker 1: Frank Stamville. I'm Greg Susman. We'll do it all go tomorrow,
Speaker 1: we hope. Are you ready for the nation's first and

Speaker 1: a day. You just serve you the fanatic. This is
Speaker 1: Sports Grade. Get all the gride. What did happen? What
Speaker 1: did Here's what you missed on the BFFs. Jalen Samuel
Speaker 1: out there and Waivers? Is he your favorite Waiver Wire
Speaker 1: pick up this week? Probably at the running back position.
Speaker 1: I think it's close between him and Mark Walton. I
Speaker 1: put out the poll before the show, Greg and surprisingly
Speaker 1: everybody is all over Jalen Samuel's as the top waiver
Speaker 1: wire add. There are already sixty seven votes on the
Speaker 1: pole greg and sixty percent say Jalen Samuels is the
Speaker 1: top waiver wire add this week. I think that's with
Speaker 1: the assumption that you know, James Conner might be missing time.
Speaker 1: But based on everything we've read so far, it looks
Speaker 1: like James Conner is going to be good to go.
Speaker 1: But I think it's close between him and Mark Walton.
Speaker 1: I understand the Miami Dolphins are terrible team, but Walton
Speaker 1: played a ton last night. Seven percent of the snaps,
Speaker 1: he had eleven carries. He had six targets as well,
Speaker 1: so seventeen running back opportunities. I understand it's a bad team,
Speaker 1: bad offensive line, but you've got some good matchups coming up.
Speaker 1: He's gonna face the Jets a couple of times here.
Speaker 1: So I think it's close between Samuels and Walton. And
Speaker 1: then I also really really like Chris Conley at the
Speaker 1: wide receiver position, but we talk about that a little
Speaker 1: bit later. Again, all of these guys, specifically from last night,
Speaker 1: I certainly kid an eye on Mark Walton and Kylen
Speaker 1: Bellage just to see the usage. As you said, Mark
Speaker 1: Walton eighty percent of the snaps last night, like Caim
Speaker 1: Malage to get involved in the wildcat inside the red
Speaker 1: zone at one point. The problem is his Novince team
Speaker 1: is so bad and their offensive line is terrible, and
Speaker 1: they're gonna be behind every game. The upside for Mark Walton,
Speaker 1: it's just capped, Like I get it, Like you want
Speaker 1: a a flex play potentially in a bye week, that's
Speaker 1: all Mark Walton's good for us. Like I can't even
Speaker 1: break the bank for a guy like Walon, even though
Speaker 1: he's a starter, because I think that upside is just
Speaker 1: so so limited, that is fair. And Jalen Samuel's upside
Speaker 1: is higher assuming that James Connor would have been time,
Speaker 1: but I don't know that we can really assume that
Speaker 1: right now. So I think it's it's the possibility that's
Speaker 1: kind of looming inside of people's minds right now. And
Speaker 1: undoubtedly there's more upside if you are the Steelers featured
Speaker 1: running back as opposed to being the Dolphins featured running back.
Speaker 1: So we'll pay attention to that. But if it if
Speaker 1: it comes down to, you know, having to spend a
Speaker 1: big amount of your fab budget at this point in
Speaker 1: the season. On Jalen Samuel is giving the information that
Speaker 1: we have. I don't know that there's that guy this
Speaker 1: week that you want to spend a ton of fab on.
Speaker 1: And thankfully we don't have a Ti Johnson situation either
Speaker 1: because that did not work out Greg, But trade Carson.
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll get to that. He's on the list. I
Speaker 1: know he's on the list. It's called all the guys
Speaker 1: um I think worth talking about as well. We're getting
Speaker 1: all that will also gonna hit up the streaming quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: What about James? What about Jujuice Smith Chuster from last
Speaker 1: night it looked really good obviously. Yeah, that first story
Speaker 1: was brutal. I mean, just lofted it up there for
Speaker 1: Xavien Howard. Got lucky that Xavier Howard actually left the
Speaker 1: game or else he might have had more interceptions later on.
Speaker 1: But Juju comes through again. Really great matchup, nine targets,
Speaker 1: five receptions, a hundred and three yards and a touchdown.
Speaker 1: Is this your cell high opportunity for Juju Smith Schuster?
Speaker 1: I would absolutely think so, no question about it. They
Speaker 1: played a brutal Miami defense. Mason route up underthrew a
Speaker 1: ton of passage. Judic the Schuster had a couple of catches,
Speaker 1: great catches in traffic. I'm absolutely using this opportunity to
Speaker 1: drade Juice Schuster hide
