Speaker 1: As I said, you can holler at me any time
Speaker 1: if you want at eight four four eight four three
Speaker 1: six eight seven nine. You could also follow me on
Speaker 1: Twitter at Spitting Speeds and I will be sure to
Speaker 1: answer your questions. It sounds, though, Chris, like we got
Speaker 1: a caller. It's Israel in Indiana. Sounds like he's got
Speaker 1: a question about his wide receiver lineup. What's going on Israel?
Speaker 1: Hey Martinez? How you doing man? I'm doing well. What's
Speaker 1: your question? Hey, sir? I got four receivers. I went
Speaker 1: uh running back heavy uh, and I ended up with
Speaker 1: I ended up with ton of not bad, but I
Speaker 1: wanted I need your help man, Keenan Allen Geargard song,
Speaker 1: Allen Pearregard song, The Monster Parker, and I picked up
Speaker 1: Robby Anderson because I listened to you guys, and I
Speaker 1: need to run this serial with. What do you guys?
Speaker 1: What do you What do you think about Seargard song? Yeah?
Speaker 1: So here's the thing. I I agree with you. I
Speaker 1: think you need a little bit of help at your
Speaker 1: wide receiver position. It sounds like you went running back early.
Speaker 1: You don't have a true number one receiver in that
Speaker 1: core right. So let me tell you what I do
Speaker 1: think about those guys. First of all, you mentioned Keenan
Speaker 1: Allen Keenan Allen, and if he can stay healthy, might
Speaker 1: be able to fill that need for you. This is
Speaker 1: a guy that's going right now is overall wide receiver seventeen.
Speaker 1: He's going in round three or four of drafts. This
Speaker 1: is a guy who could step up. He has that
Speaker 1: chemistry with Philip Rivers. He could be your de facto
Speaker 1: number one receiver. You also mentioned Pierre Garson. Now, Pierre
Speaker 1: Garson is someone I am not a fan of the
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty Niners. I don't think they're gonna be
Speaker 1: a dynamic offense. I don't care that they now have
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan their quarterback. Is that they're gonna be Mr
Speaker 1: Hoyer right. So yes, Pierre Garson will be on a
Speaker 1: team that's probably gonna be losing a lot, so they
Speaker 1: may throw the ball a lot in the second half.
Speaker 1: But I am not that big on Pierre Garson. You
Speaker 1: mentioned Robby Anderson, same situation. He is now the de
Speaker 1: facto number one receiver for the New York Jets, So
Speaker 1: I mean they're gonna be down. But again, do you
Speaker 1: trust whichever quarterback it is under center for the New
Speaker 1: York It's whether it be mc McCown or Hackenburg. To
Speaker 1: truly get the ball to Robby Anderson, I say no.
Speaker 1: There was a fourth wide receiver. You mentioned that I
Speaker 1: wanted to comment on, and it was DeVante Parker. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you something. I love DeVante Parker this year,
Speaker 1: Okay Israel, I think Devanta Parker is your diamond in
Speaker 1: the rough in this in your on your roster. And
Speaker 1: here's why the switch to Jay Cutler is actually helpful
Speaker 1: for a guy like Devanta Parker. Jay Cutler is the
Speaker 1: kind of guy who does two things. One he likes
Speaker 1: to throw it down field, and too he locks on
Speaker 1: on who becomes his favorite receiver, and that guy gets
Speaker 1: a lot of targets. I actually believe DeVante Parker is
Speaker 1: gonna be more productive than teammate Jarvarvis Landry. Now, Jarvis
Speaker 1: Landry used to be a PPR kind of beast. That
Speaker 1: is not going to be the case in my opinion
Speaker 1: this year. Jake Cutler will lock on to DeVante Parker.
Speaker 1: I think Devanta Parker is a guy you need to
Speaker 1: start every week. So I think Keenan Allen and DeVante
Speaker 1: park here. I like those two. When it comes to
Speaker 1: Garson and Robby Anderson, I'm not as high on those guys.
Speaker 1: It sounds like you did well at the running back position.
Speaker 1: Drafting them early, I would see me if I could
Speaker 1: parlay maybe one of these wide outs and one one
Speaker 1: of your low end running backs for a better wide receiver,
Speaker 1: or continue to scour the waiver wire at the beginning
Speaker 1: of the season. You'll see some wide receivers that pop,
Speaker 1: you know down there, maybe on in your draft. Maybe
Speaker 1: later on you can find guys you know later on
Speaker 1: if you let me know, call us back after the
Speaker 1: season and let me know who's still on the waiver wire,
Speaker 1: and I'll let you know who to grab. But I
Speaker 1: love Davante Parker, and if Keenan Allen stays healthy, he
Speaker 1: can have a lot of production in not San Diego
Speaker 1: but l A Yeah, fire Away Hey yeah, uh why
Speaker 1: White Cup and Candle right are on the wire. I
Speaker 1: also I picked up Max Stafford because I love Matt
Speaker 1: Stafford this year. Love Matt Stafford. Okay, and uh I
Speaker 1: did pick him up. I heard your show, And uh
Speaker 1: there's Kevin White that Chicago receiver. Kendall Right that Chicago
Speaker 1: I heard also might be good. And uh, Cooper Copy
Speaker 1: is there too? Do you like one of those three? Yeah?
Speaker 1: So out of these guys, you know, when you're looking
Speaker 1: at these guys, here's my philosophy, and thanks for the
Speaker 1: call Israel and my philosophy. When you're looking this kind
Speaker 1: of low, you know, on the rankings, when you're looking
Speaker 1: for guys with the potential to actually pop, I don't
Speaker 1: think that that it is Kendall. Right, I don't know
Speaker 1: that that is Kevin White at all. Okay, I am
Speaker 1: a little bit. I am down on the Chicago Bears offense.
Speaker 1: I don't think that offense is dynamic. I think they're
Speaker 1: gonna wind up having two different quarterbacks under center this year.
Speaker 1: And there's a lot of mouths to feed ironically in Chicago,
Speaker 1: people like Cameron Meritith. You got Victor Cruz there as well,
Speaker 1: Ruben Randall. I just think there are too many options.
Speaker 1: None of them, in my opinion, are gonna do well.
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, however, in Los Angeles is interesting. There has
Speaker 1: been a lot of buzz around Cooper Cup. I think
Speaker 1: that they've they've been saying that he may even actually
Speaker 1: surpass a guy like Tavon Austin. If you're gonna try
Speaker 1: and take a shot at a home run that low
Speaker 1: on the rankings, I'm gonna go instead of the instead
Speaker 1: of the Chicago Bears offense. I'm gonna go with the
Speaker 1: offense and I think it's on the rise. And that's
Speaker 1: Los Angeles apart um, you know, alongside Sammy Watkins and
Speaker 1: with their new head coach McVeigh. I think that is
Speaker 1: the way to go. Of those guys, I like Cup
Speaker 1: So Bivona, we now we're moving it on here. Thanks
Speaker 1: for the call again, Ishmael. Remember anybody can call holler
Speaker 1: at me at eight four four eight four three six
Speaker 1: eight seven nine or on Twitter. But right now we
Speaker 1: are lucky to be joined by my Man, my former producer.
Speaker 1: He's now still working the mornings. Is my Man, the
Speaker 1: Love Doctor and basketball correspondent Donnie Burns. Welcome back to
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle. Don How you feeling? What's going on? I
Speaker 1: miss you? Uh, That morning stift is a little hard
Speaker 1: to get used to, but I'm gonna come. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: when when I listen. First of all, the news broke
Speaker 1: last night while we were on Fantasy Freestyle, and I
Speaker 1: absolutely lost my mind. You could see it on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Network YouTube stream. Man, it was big news
Speaker 1: right at the end of the show, and I immediately
Speaker 1: thought to bring in my basketball correspondent, so let's get
Speaker 1: right into this. Don I want to add I would
Speaker 1: ask you kind of just generally like who won the trade,
Speaker 1: because that's what people are talking about, But I have
Speaker 1: it different. I'm looking to be quite honest, what I
Speaker 1: think is interesting is how these guys now line up.
Speaker 1: And what I mean is Isaiah Thomas and Lebron James
Speaker 1: have only one year left on their deal, right, and
Speaker 1: then you got Kyrie who's got some time, Gordon Hayward
Speaker 1: who's got some time. You know, I'm thinking that this
Speaker 1: is primed for the Boston Celtics to really be Eastern
Speaker 1: Conference like supremacy starting you know, at the start of
Speaker 1: next year and for the next few years. How do
Speaker 1: you think that sets up the Seas long term? Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: if you've been following all the news on Kyrie and Lebron,
Speaker 1: you would not know it was kind of either you
Speaker 1: leave r Eilis and Kyrie being the younger player. Props
Speaker 1: to him for being able to be like like, hey, listen,
Speaker 1: I'm getting out of here before you leave me with
Speaker 1: this team that won't even contend in the East. And
Speaker 1: if you want to talk in him of who won
Speaker 1: the trade, right, you had Kyrie go to the Celtics,
Speaker 1: with the Celtics sending over visits Isaiah tom Ms, Crowder
Speaker 1: and that Cove did next thing. And I like what
Speaker 1: Danny Ainge did with your Danny Age needed to spend up.
Speaker 1: He missed the off season. He didn't get any of
Speaker 1: the good guys. He didn't get Jimmy Butler, he didn't
Speaker 1: get Paul George. He needed to spend He was living
Speaker 1: too much on that, you know, taking all those next picks.
Speaker 1: You needed to trade one of those. And I like
Speaker 1: how the Calves matchup now because Isaiah Thomas is a
Speaker 1: similar player to Tyree and the fact that they are
Speaker 1: both I show players, you know, and you give them
Speaker 1: the ball on the perimeter, they do their work like that. However,
Speaker 1: the Calves received one of my favorite players, not just
Speaker 1: in the East, but in all of that. You're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about Jay Crowder and how he could defense have
Speaker 1: played some defense against Golden State, Uh, exactly, well, not
Speaker 1: even Golden State, even before that in the Eastern Conference.
Speaker 1: He can match up with people with the lyrics of
Speaker 1: DeMar de Rosen and having Lebron being able to guard
Speaker 1: low post because Jake Crowder has that size and strength capability.
Speaker 1: He's also pretty quick for his size, so he can
Speaker 1: guard likes of one of the best guards in DeMar
Speaker 1: de Rosen and players like that, even though Paul George
Speaker 1: went to the West and WHATNOTO. So I like, you know,
Speaker 1: the kind of defense they offer now. Um, not so
Speaker 1: much the Celtics, but I do. I like where the
Speaker 1: Calves are going. You know, Lebron won't be there much longer. Uh,
Speaker 1: They're trying to make moves now and I like it
Speaker 1: fair enough. Let me ask you about Kyrie. I got
Speaker 1: two questions for you, and we're up against the break Donnie.
Speaker 1: We had another caller come in and I wanted to
Speaker 1: take care of that, right, So I want to ask
Speaker 1: you some questions, but then ask can you stick around
Speaker 1: for a little bit of our next segment? All right,
Speaker 1: So here's what I want to ask you one and
Speaker 1: they're both about Kyrie. I see right now Kyrie irving
Speaker 1: at fifty to one to win the NBA m v P.
Speaker 1: I'm wondering if he can have a breakout similar to
Speaker 1: what we saw happen with Harden when he became the
Speaker 1: alpha dog the man. Similar to last year at this
Speaker 1: time when Russell Westbrook lost his you know, m v
Speaker 1: P partner and really became the man. Could the same
Speaker 1: thing happen for Kyrie Irving, making him at fifty two
Speaker 1: one at m v P making him a viable option.
Speaker 1: The second question I have that I want to get
Speaker 1: your opinion on when we come back is do you
Speaker 1: think Kyrie Irving is a good fit for the Boston
Speaker 1: fan base? Like Isaiah Thomas was a guy playing through
Speaker 1: the hip injury, getting his teeth knocked out, the little
Speaker 1: man that would grind hard, bounce right back after the
Speaker 1: unfortunate death of his sister, right, Kyrie Irving is different.
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving is a prep school kid with a flat
Speaker 1: earth theory that doesn't play defense. How will he mesh
Speaker 1: with the Boston fan base. I'm gonna get Donnie Burns
Speaker 1: ideas on both of those and a little bit more
Speaker 1: when we come back. We're dropping stats over beats. It's
Speaker 1: a fantasy freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network.
Speaker 1: Quarterback to receiver hook ups, running back depth analysis, rookie
Speaker 1: values in dynasty leagues, deep sleepers, training camp battles. These

Speaker 1: dropping stats over beats right here on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. It's your boy, Dane Martinez speech the spitting Statistician.
Speaker 1: It sounds like we've got a lot of calls that
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to, definitely as we start to talk
Speaker 1: about running backs and breaking them down ahead of your
Speaker 1: fantasy for football drafts. But I continue to be joined
Speaker 1: by my man, the love doctor in basketball correspondent Donnie Burns.
Speaker 1: Before we went to break, don I asked you a
Speaker 1: couple of questions about Kyrie Irving in terms of do
Speaker 1: you think he can have a skyrocketing kind of usage
Speaker 1: rate and also, you know, really just start to dominate
Speaker 1: like we saw Russell Westbrook do without Kevin Durant, like
Speaker 1: we saw James Harden after the loss of Dwight Howard.
Speaker 1: Do you think the same kind of path is in
Speaker 1: store for Kyrie Irving this season. See, I might be
Speaker 1: on the other side with this one because I really
Speaker 1: don't think he will have a season like Russell Westbrook.
Speaker 1: And here's why they in the off season they did
Speaker 1: trade away one of their best defenders. It's not their
Speaker 1: best defender and Avery Bradley. And as a basketball player myself,
Speaker 1: I know how hard it is in transition and whatnot
Speaker 1: you have to double up on those. Kyrie is not
Speaker 1: one of the best defenders, not known to be a defender.
Speaker 1: And that's really that's very start in terms of what
Speaker 1: his usage rate is going to be. Um he had
Speaker 1: similar status to Isaiah Thomas. They were in the high
Speaker 1: twenties for scoring. He's not much of an assist guy.
Speaker 1: I can't really see him putting up numbers like Russell Westbrook. Also,
Speaker 1: the tenacity isn't there. He's just he's an I Show player.
Speaker 1: He's a great player and I love watching him, but
Speaker 1: he's not going to have a Russell Westok type. So
Speaker 1: so let me ask you. You mentioned again that he's
Speaker 1: not really a defender, he's not really kind of a
Speaker 1: dog like that. How do you think he will mesh
Speaker 1: with the Boston fan base, especially these guys Boston seemed
Speaker 1: to love Isaiah Thomas after especially after that playoff run.
Speaker 1: Do you think it matches well in Boston? I personally don't.
Speaker 1: I also, I'm not the biggest fan of the combination
Speaker 1: of him and Gordon Hayward. If you were able to watch,
Speaker 1: I know, you know, some of those Western Conference as
Speaker 1: could be a little late. Um, Gordon Hayward, not only
Speaker 1: is he not a household name, you wouldn't know he's
Speaker 1: He's another icehole ball type player. He doesn't you know,
Speaker 1: he doesn't play well with other players, And I don't
Speaker 1: really think they're gonna mesh very well. Plus you're losing
Speaker 1: too great defenders and Crowder and Bradley and all that's
Speaker 1: left is Marcus smart in terms of that dog mentality.
Speaker 1: But I really, I don't know. I don't really like
Speaker 1: where they went with this. I know Kyrie is a dynamic,
Speaker 1: you know, once in a lifetime type guard. His handles
Speaker 1: are crazy, But I think they went a little backwards,
Speaker 1: you know, in terms of defense and offense. Isaiah Thomas
Speaker 1: offered that same kind of scoring ability so well. You
Speaker 1: mentioned though that Danny Ainge had to cash in his
Speaker 1: chips at some point, you know, they thought maybe it
Speaker 1: would be for a guy like Paul George, maybe it
Speaker 1: would be for a guy like Jimmy Butler. It turns
Speaker 1: out they do get another stud All Star, being Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 1: So we will just have to wait and see. I
Speaker 1: gotta ask you this though, because you know, I haven't
Speaker 1: had you for a little while. Let's talk about some
Speaker 1: of the other moves that happens to me. Like, you
Speaker 1: know how we used to be able to just fast
Speaker 1: forward to the finals because we was gonna be the
Speaker 1: Calves and the Warriors. Can we just now get to
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference finals of the Calves and the Celtics
Speaker 1: and then the Western Conference with the Rockets and the Warriors.
Speaker 1: Do you think there's any team that can upset the
Speaker 1: Apple cart? Do you like, say, for example, Paul George
Speaker 1: and Russell Westbrook in Oklahoma City? Do you like maybe
Speaker 1: the Wizards to ascend, the Bucks to ascend. Do you
Speaker 1: like what they're doing in Philadelphia? Is it finally time
Speaker 1: for them to ascend? Or did I already just name
Speaker 1: the final four in the conference finals? Yeah? I'm actually
Speaker 1: probably against the grain on this as well. In the
Speaker 1: Eastern Conference, I have the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Washington Wizards,
Speaker 1: and in the West, I have I don't have the Rockets.
Speaker 1: And here's my main reason why the Rockets won't be
Speaker 1: in the Western Conference finals. And if you go back
Speaker 1: to last year, you remember that the coaching staff, you know,
Speaker 1: they made James Harden a point guard. They made him
Speaker 1: a point guard. The entire season is assistic, went up,
Speaker 1: his usage rate was high. Now they bring in one
Speaker 1: of the best, if not the best facilitators in Chris Paul,
Speaker 1: which moves James Harden back to the shooting guard. And
Speaker 1: if you've played basketball, you know that that's not an
Speaker 1: easy transition. I know the season is long, but I
Speaker 1: really like teams like okay See or even the Spurs
Speaker 1: adding you know, Ruby Gay. I like them more because
Speaker 1: you know, Paul George is a two way player until
Speaker 1: he covers that sense for okay See, and the Spurs
Speaker 1: are always just great. So I'm not too big on
Speaker 1: the Rockets, and I'm really high on the Wizards in
Speaker 1: the East. All right, fair enough, you listen, we've loved
Speaker 1: that backcourt of Wall and bal Maybe they get a
Speaker 1: big man to help them out and be a true
Speaker 1: threat in the East, and dime. My last question before
Speaker 1: you go, because we haven't talked in a long long time. Uh,
Speaker 1: Lonzo Ball actually league good maybe for the Lakers. Oh
Speaker 1: my goodness, I know we used to talk about this.
Speaker 1: Not only is he good for the Lakers, he's great
Speaker 1: for basketball. You know, so many people tuned in to
Speaker 1: watch the draft and Summer League was at all time
Speaker 1: high attendance. He's a fantastic player. He will make everyone better.
Speaker 1: That Kyle Kuzman kid that you heard about during the
Speaker 1: summer leak, he wasn't anything special. Alonzo makes players better
Speaker 1: and I am so excited to watch him this year.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be such, you know, a gift to the NBA.
Speaker 1: Al Right, fair enough, Donnie Burns, Well, thanks for joining
Speaker 1: in and stopping by at Fantasy Freestyle dropping stats overbeats. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, we may have to have you come on
Speaker 1: back every now and then and talk basketball, especially if
Speaker 1: this Carmelo Anthony deal ever goes down or if he
Speaker 1: just turns into Hoodie Mellow and because then he might
Speaker 1: be an option to really help a team. But thanks
Speaker 1: for joining Donnie. Will we'll have you again soon, Okay, absolutely,
Speaker 1: I'll talk to you. Student Dane all right, man, have
Speaker 1: a good one. Hey, Chris, we're gonna keep it moving
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We had to talk about
Speaker 1: basketball because of that blockbuster trade, but as I said,
Speaker 1: we are going to focus on the running back position
Speaker 1: and some diamonds in the rough. It sounds like we
Speaker 1: still got another call, Chris. We still have Demetrius and Savannah.
Speaker 1: This is the guy Demitrius gave us a call yesterday
Speaker 1: asking about Doug Martin. I believe it was earlier in
Speaker 1: the week. Sounds like he's got another question about the
Speaker 1: running back position. Hey, Demitrius, your back on Fantasy Freestyle?
Speaker 1: What's going on? Hey? I actually have a wide receiver questions.
Speaker 1: It don't matter what position we're talking, man. We can
Speaker 1: talk running back, we could talk wide receiver, we could
Speaker 1: talk reverse cow girl. It doesn't matter what position. What's
Speaker 1: your question? All right? All right, I'm kind of touched
Speaker 1: up on that Devonte Parker combo you're having earlier. I've
Speaker 1: noticed they's going about two or three rounds later. And
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry do you like him over at Jarvis Landry?
Speaker 1: And if so, which one of those wid receivers you
Speaker 1: think I could pick at? Um? You know, you know,
Speaker 1: round seven, eight or nine. Yeah, fair enough, fair enough,
Speaker 1: and also go ahead. Yeah. Also I'm gonna take you
Speaker 1: advice about drafting Matthew Stafford. Um, maybe around round nine.
Speaker 1: But do you think it's um somebody you would recommend
Speaker 1: picking up, and you know, maybe wait for like a
Speaker 1: Ben Big Ben or Derek Carr. Yeah yeah, Um. So
Speaker 1: we'll take the quarterback first and then we'll go into
Speaker 1: the wide receivers. Okay, at the quarterback position. I think
Speaker 1: you got the right idea. Okay, Demetrius, you're gonna wait.
Speaker 1: You're gonna wait, right, And so the thing is one
Speaker 1: of those guys who you like, whether it's Ben, whether
Speaker 1: it's Stafford, whether it's car, whether it's Cousins, whether it's Rivers,
Speaker 1: whether it's Cam Newton. If you keep on waiting, you
Speaker 1: let the draft come to you, Okay, and you see
Speaker 1: which one of those one or two guys that you
Speaker 1: still like after everyone else has taken their quarterback and
Speaker 1: then you have your pick of the litter. Yeah. If
Speaker 1: it's Ben, I love it. If it's staff Heard, I
Speaker 1: love it. If it's other volume throwers, like a guy
Speaker 1: like Philip Rivers, I love it. If it's Derek Carr,
Speaker 1: I think you got away with highway robbery and thank
Speaker 1: the rest of your league later on. So yes, wait,
Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter which one of those guys it
Speaker 1: can be. You can ride with those and get the
Speaker 1: same kind of value much better, you know, kind of uh,
Speaker 1: round for round, buck for buck, pound for pound. Then
Speaker 1: if you spent up a little bit earlier in your
Speaker 1: draft to try to get a guy like Matt Ryan
Speaker 1: or Russell Wilson. Onto your question with the wide receivers,
Speaker 1: you asked about Jarvis Landry and DeVante Parker. You heard
Speaker 1: the last quality to how I'm very high on DeVante Parker.
Speaker 1: Here's the issue. The key is you need to learn
Speaker 1: and know your league settings, and in this case, the
Speaker 1: question is is it a PPR league or not. If
Speaker 1: it is a PPR league, then Jarvis Landry is still
Speaker 1: the Dolphins wide receiver that will probably have the most production.
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry has averaged nineties six catches a season over
Speaker 1: his first three years. Okay, the PPR league, that is
Speaker 1: something that makes him his stud and something that DeVante
Speaker 1: Parker will not surpass. However, if you're in a standard
Speaker 1: league or league that does not give you credit in
Speaker 1: PPR points per reception. Then I'm telling you I truly
Speaker 1: do like DeVante Parker the two reasons I mentioned before.
Speaker 1: The switch to Jay Cutler makes this better. Okay, Jay
Speaker 1: Cutler is a guy who's like a gun slinger. He
Speaker 1: likes to throw the ball ball down the field and
Speaker 1: did so in that Adam Gays offense previously. Okay, So
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry is your more possession receiver. You're more underneath targets.
Speaker 1: That's why he catches all those balls. The slight kind
Speaker 1: of slot receiver. DeVante Parker is your home run threat.
Speaker 1: So if you're in standard leagues or touchdown heavy leagues,
Speaker 1: I love DeVante Parker because Ja Cutler is gonna throw
Speaker 1: the ball downfield, and he is. He traditionally has locked
Speaker 1: onto one receiver that he likes to build a chemistry with.
Speaker 1: Previously in Chicago, that guy was al Sean Jeffrey, and
Speaker 1: last week after his first game with Dolphins, j Cutler
Speaker 1: after the game said that Davante Parker was quote unquote
Speaker 1: a faster version of al Shan Jeffrey. To me, that
Speaker 1: means that Cutler has found his guy and it is
Speaker 1: DeVante Parker, not Jarvis Landry, although if it's a PPR league,
Speaker 1: you can't get away from the receptions that Landry will
Speaker 1: still likely tally. Hope that helps you out there, de Marius,
Speaker 1: and uh listen, you are always welcome to keep calling
Speaker 1: back the fantasy freestyle and after your you know, like
Speaker 1: three and oh, four and oh in your league this year.
Speaker 1: Just remember where you got the advice from. But the
Speaker 1: phone lines are always open for you, brother man. All right,
Speaker 1: let's keep it moving. What we wanted to do, what
Speaker 1: we wanted to do today was I wanted to give
Speaker 1: you a couple of running back diamonds in the rough.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, though, we had Donnie Burns going so
Speaker 1: deep into the Kyrie Irving trade. We had calls going
Speaker 1: on about Miami wide receivers, about other ideas like quarterbacks
Speaker 1: to wait on. So here's the deal. We're gonna take
Speaker 1: a quick break. When we come back. We're gonna go
Speaker 1: over the poll question we had that was you know
Speaker 1: which fantasy sleeper at running back to you like the best?
Speaker 1: Because there are a lot there are a lot of um,
Speaker 1: there are a lot of options out there. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna go over the poll. We're gonna give you a
Speaker 1: couple of guys that I like. And then, as you know, though,
Speaker 1: we gotta get to put in the fund in functional
Speaker 1: sports radio. We got Condam and Gregor Floyd Mayweather bets
Speaker 1: to cover. Also, so much to do right here, and
Speaker 1: we only got one segment left. We're gonna try to
Speaker 1: fit it all in, but if not, you're just gonna
Speaker 1: have to tune in tomorrow, okay, because it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: All week long, we'll be talking running backs, We'll be
Speaker 1: talking Connor and Floyd. We'll be talking everything you need
Speaker 1: and will continue to take your callers as well. Right here,
Speaker 1: Dane Martinez speeds the spinning statistician on the award winning

Speaker 1: stats over beats right here on the award winning Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network. Big shout out to anybody listening live
Speaker 1: right now on tune In Radio on I Heart Radio,
Speaker 1: and anybody watching live on the Fantasy Sports Network YouTube stream.
Speaker 1: Thanks to all of our newest viewers out there and
Speaker 1: anybody that wants to hop in on the show. You
Speaker 1: always can holler at your boy at eight four four
Speaker 1: eight four three six eight seven nine. You could also
Speaker 1: hollow at me on Twitter, follow me at spitting Speeds
Speaker 1: on Twitter. What we did, though, is we put up
Speaker 1: a pole question, okay, and put up a Cole pole
Speaker 1: question of which NFL running that back will outperform their
Speaker 1: current you know, a DP expectations. And I had options
Speaker 1: out there of Dalvin Cook, Thomas Rawls, Jamal Williams, these
Speaker 1: guys that I'm high on. I want to go into
Speaker 1: the reasons why I'm high on these guys. But here's
Speaker 1: the thing, we got too much to talk about. So
Speaker 1: I think what's gonna happen is we're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: these guys a little bit more in depth tomorrow, But
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you right now, I am with everybody
Speaker 1: in the industry. I was on Dalvin Cook early. I
Speaker 1: think that he is going to be a true three
Speaker 1: down back, and the thing is, you gotta fade the
Speaker 1: other back. That's what it comes down to. And here
Speaker 1: in Minnesota, Latavius Murray is still coming back from that
Speaker 1: ankle injury. He is not going to be the man
Speaker 1: the Vikings went up to draft Dalvin Cook. He's gonna
Speaker 1: be a three down back. I think he has a
Speaker 1: potential to be a low end RB one by the
Speaker 1: time all is said and done, and Thomas Rawls this situation,
Speaker 1: I'm fading the other back, and in this case it's
Speaker 1: Eddie Lacy. Eddie Leasy has not looked impressive so far
Speaker 1: in Seattle. And when you have that offensive line struggling,
Speaker 1: you don't need a three yards in a cloud of
Speaker 1: dust type running back. There's a lot of buzz around.
Speaker 1: Thomas Rawls will get into that a little bit later
Speaker 1: on or on tomorrow's show as well. My other option,
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams man, I don't know, if you listen to
Speaker 1: this network, you may hear my man the all in
Speaker 1: kid Jake Seely, he was on this right after the
Speaker 1: NFL Draft. I agree with him. I do not think
Speaker 1: Time Montgomery, who is the only other back in Green Bay,
Speaker 1: is gonna be serviceable, is gonna be able to handle
Speaker 1: the wear and tear inside the tackles. Remember he is
Speaker 1: a converted wide receiver. Jamal Williams also getting a lot
Speaker 1: of buzz and a lot of praise for his ability
Speaker 1: to protect in the past game, which is key. But
Speaker 1: there are other people out there that have their ideas
Speaker 1: on who should be the kind of like breakout running back.
Speaker 1: So Clayton on Twitter at Clayton Clayton more is FFB
Speaker 1: on Twitter, they say Darren Sprowls and blal Powell, especially
Speaker 1: in PPR leagues. I like both of those calls. Although
Speaker 1: word did come today that Danny Woodhead is nursing a
Speaker 1: leg injury, so I don't know if he's still the
Speaker 1: guy in Baltimore. I love balal Pal however, boom boom
Speaker 1: bilal Pal Pal? What pal Pal? I loved balal Pal.
Speaker 1: If you can get him in the sixth or seventh round. Also,
Speaker 1: Mark Method out there on at watch Method on Twitter,
Speaker 1: he says Kamara he means Alvin Kamara, the running back
Speaker 1: of the New Orleans Saints. I love Alvin Kamara as well.
Speaker 1: The only problem is the New Orleans Saints signed Adrian
Speaker 1: Peterson after that, and he is truly going to block
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara's route. You saw him so explosive touchdown down
Speaker 1: the sideline um, you know, in their last preseason game
Speaker 1: against the Chargers. I think he is a great guy
Speaker 1: in dinas leagues that you could stash and maybe hold
Speaker 1: for next year because for some reason, you know, the
Speaker 1: Saints don't like mark Ingram and Adrian Peterson is blocking
Speaker 1: him right now. We also have keeps on Twitter at
Speaker 1: Bomas Hogg. He says Tevin Coleman in the thirties he
Speaker 1: could have a killer year in PPR. I understand what
Speaker 1: he's saying. I agree. I think Kevin Coleman is one
Speaker 1: of the best, you know, handcuffs or second running backs
Speaker 1: in the league. That Falcon's offense will likely continue to
Speaker 1: be explosive. I don't disagree. Tevin Coleman is someone I
Speaker 1: would love to have on my fantasy team. Listen, you
Speaker 1: can always call into the show. You could always ask
Speaker 1: me questions on Twitter. You know what else you can do.

Speaker 1: that speeds the spitting statisticians sent you. All Right there, Chris,
Speaker 1: the time has come. We have to talk about about
Speaker 1: the second semifinal of the Greatest Sports Movie of All
Speaker 1: Time On one side already in the championship matchup is Rocky.
Speaker 1: Rocky won the award for Best Picture, won the Oscar
Speaker 1: in ninety six. However, tonight on the other side, we
Speaker 1: have the Sandlot verse white men Can't Jump. I've looked
Speaker 1: at the poll. I don't want to get into the
Speaker 1: results just yet because we've extended the time, so there's
Speaker 1: a lot of time left. It could switch. But when
Speaker 1: I'm talking about white men can't jump? First of all,
Speaker 1: my man Tony Sincada, who you can hear with me
Speaker 1: on the DFS Lineup Block show six to seven pm
Speaker 1: right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. He likes
Speaker 1: white men Can't Jump. He said he really liked the
Speaker 1: Jimmy Hendrick songs, and he talked about how how much
Speaker 1: he liked Rosie Perez. But then he wondered where Woody
Speaker 1: Harrelson went. I mentioned that Woody Harrelson actually taught Wesley
Speaker 1: Snipes had a Ball how to play basketball for this movie.
Speaker 1: But can you listen to Jimmy can you hear Jimmy,
Speaker 1: my Man, Gloria, my Man, my Lady Gloria, Rosie Perez
Speaker 1: and her foods that start with the letter Q? The
Speaker 1: Stucci Brothers, the feeling of dried mouthedness. These are great
Speaker 1: lines and great concepts from White Men Can't Jump. But
Speaker 1: of course on the Sand Loot, we have you know,
Speaker 1: the Beast, we have one d Peppercorn, we have Benny
Speaker 1: the Jet, the Great Bambino, and of course you're killing
Speaker 1: me Smalls. So, Chris, I know you like both of
Speaker 1: these movies. Where are you going for this semifin no matchup?
Speaker 1: The funny thing is that I thought this would be
Speaker 1: an easy selection for me, but it hasn't been because
Speaker 1: I keep going back and I just don't know. Because
Speaker 1: the reason why I would pick The Sand Loot is
Speaker 1: because I just think it's a more family friendly movie.
Speaker 1: I think there's a little bit more. There's better quotable lines, obviously,
Speaker 1: besides you killing me small, no offense to Rosie Perez.
Speaker 1: I just like Wendy Peppercorn just a little bit. And
Speaker 1: my girls blonde, So I like blonde. Fine, Hey, it's
Speaker 1: personal correference and that's being said. Did I tell you
Speaker 1: that I watched White Man Can Jump a few nights ago? Okay,
Speaker 1: and I never realized how amazing, I'm amazing the chemistry
Speaker 1: was between Woody Harrison and Wesley Snow. They they played
Speaker 1: off of each other so well, it's something that you
Speaker 1: don't really see the first or second time you might
Speaker 1: see this movie. Not only that, they just literally these
Speaker 1: guys could just be sitting there on the couch, no problem,
Speaker 1: and it's still being an exciting movie to watch. They
Speaker 1: literally could have just sat there and watch that Lakers
Speaker 1: game the whole night for an hour and a half
Speaker 1: and I would have said, Wow, this is an awesome movie.
Speaker 1: I love that scene where they're like about to fight, right,
Speaker 1: but then they watching the Lakers game and they paused
Speaker 1: and they're like, whoa, whoa, that's that's that. It was
Speaker 1: like James Worthy or something hitting the shot right. And
Speaker 1: then they go right back to their argument. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was great. It's great chemistry, absolutely right. So with that
Speaker 1: being said, I have no choice though, because once again
Speaker 1: you're just gonna kill me small. I have to go
Speaker 1: with the sand Lot. I have to go with the
Speaker 1: Disney ask It's it's a little more classic, you know
Speaker 1: how I feel about classic movies like Rocky. Plus, I
Speaker 1: do want to see this matchup between Rocky and the
Speaker 1: sand Lot. I think this is really a true David
Speaker 1: versus Goliath, where Goliath may lose. All right, well, we
Speaker 1: shall see right now, although, like I said, we extended
Speaker 1: the time when the polls would be open here in
Speaker 1: the semifinals. But right now, Chris, I'm a little bit
Speaker 1: sad because I've been telling the listeners all summer long.
Speaker 1: They're my two favorite movies. Where white men can jump
Speaker 1: and Major League. Major League made it to the Elite
Speaker 1: eight white men can't jump made it to the final four. However,
Speaker 1: right now, the sand Lot has seventy percent of the vote.
Speaker 1: That is a lot of the vote. Okay, So I
Speaker 1: don't know if white men can jump. Even though there's
Speaker 1: almost a full day left on the polls, I don't
Speaker 1: know if white men can't jump is going to be
Speaker 1: able to overtake the lead that Wendy Peppercorn, the Beasts
Speaker 1: and Small's have. Right now, it is seventy to thirty
Speaker 1: in favor of the sand Lot. Chris, sand Loot versus Rocky.
Speaker 1: There was that the kind of championship final you would
Speaker 1: have thought at the beginning of this tournament. I would
Speaker 1: have thought something along the lines of like Rocky versus Rudy.
Speaker 1: But the way that we did this, it wouldn't have happened.
Speaker 1: It would have been a final format shop, which is fine.
Speaker 1: I really was thinking that it was gonna be Rocky
Speaker 1: Versus Major League. I actually thought that's how our listeners
Speaker 1: would go with this. I actually thought most people would
Speaker 1: have picked Major League over The sand Lot because a
Speaker 1: little bit more of an adult oriented film and just
Speaker 1: as quotable as The sand Lot. That was my guest.
Speaker 1: I didn't think that the basketball region really had a shot,
Speaker 1: you know, because as much as I love White Man
Speaker 1: Can't Jump, as much as I love Space Jam, as
Speaker 1: much as I love those movies, they don't really they don't.
Speaker 1: They don't. I don't put them in that category of
Speaker 1: the movies like Rocky or The sand Lot, Like I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: like you want to put like your top five favorite
Speaker 1: movies in there, None of them are basketball for me? Right?
Speaker 1: Fair enough, listen. I think that a championship contender that
Speaker 1: lost in the very first round getting upset was Remember
Speaker 1: the Titans. I was surprised that that didn't last longer.
Speaker 1: But if it's gonna be Rocky versus sand Lot, want
Speaker 1: to still see the Upset special, we'll see. We'll put
Speaker 1: that poll up the championship. If it is in fact
Speaker 1: the sand Loot Verse, Rocky, we'll put that up on
Speaker 1: the Friday Show, Chris, and then we'll have it go
Speaker 1: all weekend long. And this way we can crown the
Speaker 1: champion on Monday's show as we start a fresh week,
Speaker 1: crowning the champion of the greatest sports movie of all time.
Speaker 1: I told you, guys, I promised you that I would
Speaker 1: talk about a little bit of this condo McGregor Floyd Mayweather.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you right now there are ways to
Speaker 1: make money on this fight. You need to listen. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you the ways to make money on this fight
Speaker 1: and start of its start. Part of it starts tonight.
Speaker 1: I don't think the straight bet is the right way
Speaker 1: because you're gonna not win enough money. Right Floyd is
Speaker 1: at like minus four seventy five minus five hundred that
Speaker 1: may go down. I'm telling you, take your rent money
Speaker 1: and bet it on Floyd to win. Trust me, Floyd
Speaker 1: is gonna win this fight. Take your money and bet
Speaker 1: it on Floyd. But I got a couple of other
Speaker 1: ways you could play it, and a couple of prop
Speaker 1: bets that I think a very interesting I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: into that a little bit when we come back right
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the award winning Fantasy

Speaker 1: jess to get bye Jess to get bye, Jessica, get
Speaker 1: by a little bit of tolip quality as we come
Speaker 1: backdropping status over beach right here on the Fantasy Freestyle
Speaker 1: and the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. My Man
Speaker 1: Chris Pavonard the bounty Hunter on the Ones and Tools,
Speaker 1: keeping it so hot that we sweat steam. I want
Speaker 1: to give a shout out to Fantasy Field Report. At
Speaker 1: Fanfield Report on Twitter, they say Frank Gore guaranteed to
Speaker 1: outperform RB thirty. That's where he's going right now. I agree,
Speaker 1: Frank Gore is kind of old, reliable and people never
Speaker 1: think about him. The only the only problem is I
Speaker 1: am worried about Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts. I
Speaker 1: see the potential for the Indianapolis Colts to spiral out
Speaker 1: of control. And honestly, if they're down, if they're down
Speaker 1: in games, they're gonna be throwing. And if they're throwing,
Speaker 1: I think this kid, Marlon Mack could wind up being uh,
Speaker 1: you know, kind of a hot sleeper himself. This is
Speaker 1: a rookie that they drafted this this year. Marlon Mack
Speaker 1: could be someone that I think will also be one
Speaker 1: of these kind of sleepers. And actually people are out
Speaker 1: there saying Marlon Max. So I want to give a
Speaker 1: big shout out to uh Luke a Hagar at Best
Speaker 1: Qualified he suggested Marlon Mack as well. As I mentioned
Speaker 1: though we only got a couple of minutes left. But
Speaker 1: one of the things I wanted to tell you about
Speaker 1: is how to make money on this fight on Saturday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you could bet Floyd Mayweather at minus four hundred or
Speaker 1: minus four fifty wherever it settles. And telling I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: take your rent check, empty out your four oh one
Speaker 1: k and put it on them. But the thing is
Speaker 1: that minus fived, minus four fifty, whatever it is, you're
Speaker 1: not gonna get as much value. Here's the two things
Speaker 1: I think you can do. I think you need to
Speaker 1: parlay it with another big favorite. You know, like if
Speaker 1: if you could have gotten I know he's on the
Speaker 1: d L but like Clayton Hershaw first, you know, run
Speaker 1: total for the first five innings, you know, um the
Speaker 1: Patriots to win the division. These sorts of things that
Speaker 1: you could parlay it with another big favorite. Then you
Speaker 1: know you're par laying two things. It bumps it down
Speaker 1: and you could actually get a little bit of value.
Speaker 1: That's one thing. Find another big favorite, whether it's a
Speaker 1: Stanford over the Rice that day, it doesn't matter. To
Speaker 1: find a big favorite and par lay it with Floyd.
Speaker 1: It will bring that down a little bit. The other thing,
Speaker 1: Floyd by decision is plus two fifty. That means if
Speaker 1: you bet a hundred dollars, you win two hundred fifty
Speaker 1: dollars Floyd. As you know, Floyd is a businessman. Floyd
Speaker 1: does not knock people out. Okay, So so when Floyd
Speaker 1: wins this fight, he's going to win by decision. He's
Speaker 1: also gonna stretch it out right so that there's buzz
Speaker 1: maybe for a rematch or something like that. Listen, Floyd
Speaker 1: is not gonna knock out Conor McGregor. Conor McGregor is
Speaker 1: in the UFC. He's able to handle, you know, he's
Speaker 1: able to hand handle Nate Diaz and all these other
Speaker 1: guys that he's fighting with. He's gonna be able to
Speaker 1: handle the power of Floyd Mayweather. He's also the bigger man.
Speaker 1: He won't get knocked out. But Floyd Mayweather is gonna
Speaker 1: win by decision. And you can get Floyd by decision
Speaker 1: right now at plus two fifty. But the thing is
Speaker 1: to handle on. This has been almost the same as
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. So there are crazy prop bets just
Speaker 1: like the Super Bowl. There's prop bets about Justin Bieber.
Speaker 1: There's prop bets about will Connor McGregory walk out with
Speaker 1: his little drunken noodle walk. There's prople bets about little
Speaker 1: Wayne accompanying somebody to the ring. We're gonna get into
Speaker 1: all of that and break down this fight a little
Speaker 1: bit more. On tomorrow's episode of Fantasy Freestyle, we're gonna
Speaker 1: go a little bit deeper into the running back diamonds
Speaker 1: in the rough as well. And I promise you we
Speaker 1: also I wanted to, you know, talk about what happened
Speaker 1: on this episode of Hard Knocks on HBO. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get into all of those those things, all right. There's
Speaker 1: also preseason week three that kicks off starting tomorrow, and
Speaker 1: preseason week three is where you start to see the
Speaker 1: starters in there for a little while. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: other announcements on things like starting quarterbacks. It looks like
Speaker 1: the Browns are gone with Deshaun Kaiser. They're keeping Osweiler
Speaker 1: out because they may want to flip and trade him,
Speaker 1: so he won't see the field at all because of
Speaker 1: any injury risk. I'll tell you one team that might
Speaker 1: be viable, the Indianapolis called if Andrew Luck can't come back.
Speaker 1: But you know who it is. It's your boy, Dane Martinez,
Speaker 1: a k A. Speed a k A to spitting statistician
Speaker 1: and just like Biggie says in this song, I love
Speaker 1: the know, so I'm gonna help you find out whether
Speaker 1: it's fantasy football, whether it's DFS Baseball, or whether it's
Speaker 1: who to bet on this fight. I'm gonna hold you
Speaker 1: down right here on the Fantasy Freestyle. I'll see you tomorrow.
