1 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Drive. I'm Dale Lawley here with 2 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: Matt Wynton. It's time for the Fantasy Football Focus And Matt, 3 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to say, talk about something here that we 4 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 1: talked about here with all the s and our guys. 5 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: Uh so that would include Jacob Brect Yeah, yeah, Tom. 6 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: We even included Adam Crowley in this, even included that 7 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: we've been included that. So all the guys who do 8 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: a show Weston Moates and yeah who do shows snr um. 9 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: We're doing a little contest this year. We were initially 10 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna do a fantasy football league among us. It 11 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: was too hard to figure out the time when we 12 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 1: could all draft. Yeah, it was a great idea, but 13 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: it was like when are we all gonna get together 14 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: and do it, or you know, even get online and 15 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: do it. So I then had the idea that we 16 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: could do this on Draft Kings where we start to 17 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: have a little contest every week amongst ourselves and see 18 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: who wins every week and we can talk about it 19 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: on the air. Yeah, why don't we include the listeners 20 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 1: in this right right? Beat the beat the experts, Yeah right, 21 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: you talk a little smack of boy. We whipped on 22 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: Williamson and Lawley this weekend. So it's it's it's a 23 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: it's a very low money's really it's a three dollar entry, 24 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: not a big investment. It's not an investment. We're not 25 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: making any money. Is there's something fun if you want 26 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: to do it just a little. It's a fifty fifty 27 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: thing because you have to set it up somehow. So anyways, 28 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: the name of the contest is NFL three dollars fifty 29 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: fifty number one. I created the contest over the weekend. 30 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: We'll do this every week. We'll create a contest. Will 31 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: let you guys know who it is. I tweeted it 32 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: out yesterday. Okay, I'll retweet it too.

I'll 44 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: have to re send all the emails out everybody again. Okay, 45 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: you're in, or you gotta keep on top of it. Again. 46 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: That's NFL three dollars fifty fifty number one. So if 47 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: you're looking for that on on the Draft Kings, you 48 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: can find that on there, or you can just go 49 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: to my tweet and find it there.

Well here's the thing, though, Jacob's gonna be 53 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,119 Speaker 1: sitting here and he's gonna hear our pick notes. Yeah, 54 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to send Jacob out of the room, 55 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: or at least we'll mention what he did, and if 56 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: it happens to be eerily similar, we'll just let everyone 57 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 1: know that. Yeah he's being But now that'd be fun. Yeah, 58 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: looking forward to that. As I mentioned in a previous segment, 59 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: today is the first day that we have official injury 60 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 1: reports were actually there was one for the Thursday night games, Yeah, 61 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: Gallas and Tampa Bay. That came out yesterday, but I 62 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: wanted to talk about some of the injury news around 63 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: the league. We did the Steeler's injury report earlier, yes, 64 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: real quick. I just think in general, much as the 65 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: case as we talked to Stealers, I think these teams 66 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of we don't you know as 67 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: analyst and fans, is that guy healthier or not? Where 68 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: should take him in fantasy? I think most of these 69 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: guys that have popped up over the last couple of 70 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: weeks are healthier than you would guess, and just keeping 71 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: them ready, didn't practice, they got something going on. Much 72 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: like the Steelers, I think most teams are pretty healthy 73 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: leading into Week one. Ravens who had blows. Yeah, uh 74 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: so the well, you know we're not just doing fantasy 75 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 1: offensive guys here, but you have to worry about your 76 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: fantasy defense. Uh. Zadarius Smith was limited in Wednesday's practice. 77 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: For the Packers, it would be a big blow for 78 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: their defense. I mean he's very important for them. He's 79 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: their number one sack guy. Yeah, it goes inside as well, 80 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: kind of like we've talked about Ingram on other other segments. 81 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: You know, very versatile and they're playing Jamis Winston this week, 82 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: right and go to line? Yeah. Um. For the Dolphins, 83 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: Preston Williams was limited in Wednesday's practice. He's really not. 84 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: I don't even think he plays anymore. I mean, they 85 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: have so many receivers, all of the stuffy. Nelson Aguilar 86 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: for the Patriots was limited with an ankle and Wednesday 87 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: he's going to be to take the top off guy. Yeah, 88 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, at least I think people didn't want to 89 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: crawld the box. Maybe he'll catch it, maybe he won't, 90 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: maybe right, right, right, But I think he'll be a 91 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: real hit or miss for fantasy. Um Darius Tony, the 92 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: first round draft pick for the New York Football Giants 93 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: because a hamstring and was limited in practice. Side note, 94 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: Do you have any interest in him for fantasy? Me? Neither. 95 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: I never understood the pick, and part of it was 96 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: like the Steelers when Harris was up. There wasn't a 97 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: ton of offensive linemen to pick from at that portion 98 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: of the draft. But they're not a very creative play 99 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: calling team and they have weapons. Where does he fit in? Yeah, 100 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll find ways to use him, but is 101 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 1: it going to be enough to be fantasy relevant? Probably? 102 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: I think he's like a five touch of game guy 103 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: at Boast. Yeah. On the other hand, Sae Kwon Barkley 104 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: been good news on him right well, he was limited 105 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: in Wednesday's press All the clips I've been seeing and 106 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: the blurbs have been seeing, not including today where he's 107 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: looking pretty sharp, But he scares me. I mean, if 108 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: you're looking at talent wise, he should have gone in 109 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: the top five. Yeah, he might be number one, number 110 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: one when he's healthy. He's only behind McCaffrey in production 111 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. I just didn't want anything 112 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: to get their line. I don't like the coaching staff 113 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: and methmore Garrett than its judge. But man, and I 114 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: think he's I don't. I don't say he's fragile, but 115 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: I mean he's injuries are an issue. It's not reliable. 116 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: Speaking of which, Kenny Golliday also limited today with a 117 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. I don't think I owned him anywhere, nor 118 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: do I want to know. He rubbed me the wrong 119 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: way last year by basically just sitting out and hey, 120 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a free agent at the end of 121 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: the year. We're not winning anything. Yeah, And and now 122 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: he signs a big deal for in a situation where 123 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: I think he'll disappoint in the end. You know, is 124 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 1: he much? He's a good player and he's better than Slaton, 125 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: But why not just run with Slaton or you know, 126 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 1: sign a tackle. Yeah, he was going in those you know, 127 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: third to fifth round somewhere there, and they were just 128 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: guys available. Yeah. I didn't wan anything to do with 129 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: him for fantasy. He's somebody I wanted to fall off 130 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: the board before I picked every round. Yeah. Uh, DeAndre Swift, 131 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: good news on him. He was a full participant in 132 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: Wednesday's practice. That's an interesting backfield it is. You know 133 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: a lot of people are Jamal Williams believers. Coaches are. Yeah, 134 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: that's the thing that worries the coaches love the guy 135 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: and Swift he was like RB. He was in the 136 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: teens last year when a lot of it was late production, 137 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: as all those rookies were. But he was going later 138 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: than that in this year's drest because of the injury 139 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: issues and that Jamal Williams factor. Yes, And I think 140 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: I mentioned as usual we go away for Labor Day weekend, 141 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: and I would have bet every dollar I had with 142 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: the ninth pick and the sixteenth pick would have been 143 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: running back. Running back. Didn't go that way because it 144 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: couldn't have went worse. But I ended up with Antonio Gibson. 145 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: The first round, I took Tyreek, who I couldn't still 146 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: believe was there, came back, took McLaurin, and then I 147 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: got Swift in the fourth. Like I would have never 148 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: thought that I ended up with with Swift because I 149 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: don't really trust him, but I gotta think that he's 150 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: gonna catch passes late in games. But Williams a really 151 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: good protection to like, Swift is a talented player, and 152 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what to think of him. Yeah, it's 153 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: it's it's and it's the new coaching staff, so there's 154 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: nothing to fall back on. I would have said he's 155 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: not for me, and then I end up taking him, 156 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: but he was in the fourth round, and sometimes the 157 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: value is just outweighed. Yeah, and I had to take 158 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: one there. Parish Campbell. He's dealing with an achilles injury. 159 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 1: He was limited in Wednesday's practice. He's sneaky, like if 160 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 1: he's t Y Hilton's on, I R don't don't gonna 161 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: play again. I mean he was bad before and injured 162 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: and now he's hurt again. He has no rapport with Wentz. 163 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I have no value or used for t 164 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: Y Hilton. I do for Pittman. But Campbell's the two. Yeah. Yeah, 165 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 1: here's a side super sleeper. I mean, if Campbell's not 166 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: in your league and it's a twelve team te league 167 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: or so, he probably should be tight end. That Kylan 168 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: Granson dude is somebody to keep an eye on, two 169 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: move tight end. Interesting player. The Texans placed their kicker 170 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: Kai Fairbarn on injured reserve. Okay, I guess we're going 171 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: he might be their entire offense this year. Yeah, if 172 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a Texan, he's gonna be replaced on 173 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 1: the roster by Joey Sly, who was cut by the 174 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: Panthers after this Steelers preseason game. I guess it's worth 175 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: mentioning the kickers just because if that happens to be 176 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: your kicker, don't start him and not pay attention sometimes 177 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: the stream kickers. Yeah, there's no reason to have a 178 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: unless you got Justin Tucker or you know one of 179 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: those or whatever. Yeah. Um, yeah, Jalen heard, remember all 180 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: the Jalen heard. He's going to be the next big thing. Yeah. Uh, 181 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan said the Niners are gonna shut him down 182 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: for a little bit because of knee injury. He may 183 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: just be a what if guy his whole career. He 184 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: was a running back, yes, and was ahead of Kamara 185 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: on the tennis See depth chart University of Tennessee, which 186 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: was probably a mistake by the Tennessee staff. Looking back, 187 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: turns wide receiver must be something in the Tennessee water. 188 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: The same guys who bench Memphis in Memphis at bench 189 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: there didn't give the ball to Gibson right right, right right, 190 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: And I thought heard might be a really interesting powerful 191 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,599 Speaker 1: receiver after the catch and injuries, and he's been a 192 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: Dynasty stash mine for years. But that that ship sailed. Uh, 193 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: Chris Godly sees the field there if he's helping Chris 194 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: Goblins wanted to worry about with the quad injury not 195 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: listed on the injury report, the final injury report which 196 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: came out today Thursday nights game, So it looks like 197 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: he is a full go um. There were some questions 198 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: really good matchup for Um. You know, people were starting 199 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: to bump Antonio Goblin. Doesn't play bump Antonio Brown Up. 200 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: We don't tap the brakes a little bit on that. Yeah, 201 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't hesitate to start Brown this week if you're 202 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: not super strong there or whatever. Um, but you godwin 203 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: in this game. The Bills, who of course play the Steelers. 204 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: Isaiah Mackenzie with the shoulder injury, was practicing in full today. 205 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: He's kind of their gadget dude. Emmanuel Sanders, however, with 206 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: the foot, was limited Wednesday's practice. That foot issue for 207 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: him has been something that's plagued him since his rookie year. Really, yeah, 208 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: I guess I had that's true. I'm not certain of this. 209 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: I don't think Sanders played any snaps in the precincts. 210 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: I'm not positive, but I don't think so, nor does 211 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: he need to. I mean, but interesting, I don't know 212 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: that I love him for fantasy. No, it's just too 213 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: many miles to feat. Yeah. A J. Brown with the 214 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: knee concerned, this is like every week, It's every week. 215 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: I love the player, super invested in him. In Dynasty, 216 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 1: he was my favorite receiver in that draft, and which 217 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: is easy to say now, but he was not close 218 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: to be the first one taken. And this sounds like 219 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: a it is a compliment his new teammate Julio and 220 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: him sort of have these things in common. You know, 221 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: they're almost too powerful for their bones structure, Like they 222 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: had surgery both knees over the summer. He's had a 223 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: lot in the short amount of time and plays hard 224 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: and doesn't just stuck out of bounds, you know what 225 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: I mean. He's a little concerning. Uh, Curtis Samuel for Washington, 226 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 1: this one's all good, right, Yeah, pulled up on a 227 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,719 Speaker 1: route and practice and was on the sideline with trainers 228 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: for the rest of practice. He's barely practiced at all. 229 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: A new team doesn't sound good. I don't think you 230 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: can start him for a while. Even if he's active. 231 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: You at least got to see it a little bit. 232 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: The Ravens signed running back Trent and Cannon. They also, 233 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: of course, signed Livy On Bell to their practice squad. 234 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: I would think Bell gets activated later in the week, 235 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: I guess. I don't think Bell will be the two though. 236 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't think so. No, I mean he fits with 237 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,079 Speaker 1: their running game either. I was wondering that too. I mean, 238 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want patience when you're running read options, 239 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: so I didn't want to get it and go right. 240 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: He doesn't help on special teams. I guess his receiver 241 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: and past blocking acumen is maybe useful if they still 242 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: plan on doing that. But I mean, I don't know, 243 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: he doesn't. It doesn't move the needle for me at 244 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: all at all. Yeah, I mean, nor would have Girly 245 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: or DeVante Freeman or Adrian Peterson. I mean they're all 246 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: kind of washed. Um. Evan Ingram not expected to practice 247 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: today with the calf injury, putting his Week one status 248 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: in doubt. Yeah, he's another one that always fights injuries. Um. 249 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: I heard some doctor people that I trust on, you know, 250 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: on the podcast saying Liz Frank said he had last 251 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 1: year that first year back is always bad, especially for 252 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: route runners, but the next year usually they're back on percent. 253 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: And now he has something else. You know, It's just 254 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: always something. Carson Wentz was a full participant in practice 255 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: on Wednesday and looks like he is going to be 256 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 1: a fool go and for fantasy reasons. I'm sure you 257 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: have a better quarterback than Wins, but even Pittman and certain, 258 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: I don't know how many how many colts can you 259 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: start besides Taylor? I mean, the quarterbacks hardly played with 260 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: his new team. Yeah, that's it's a weird situation, A 261 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: weird situation. I would fade the Colts. Uh. The Saints 262 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: acquired cornerback Bradley Roby from the Tensions. Um, now he's 263 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: suspended for the first six I think six games of 264 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: the year. Right, Um, they need a number two corner badly. Yeah. 265 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how their cap situation works so much. Sure, 266 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: if they have one, they cut us Murray, right, that's 267 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: so they would have cap space available to do this move. 268 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: And I guess the ripple effect their fantasy wise is 269 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: that Jones dude is now Yeah, I mean it's not 270 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: Murray and and the handcuff. It's not a true handcuff 271 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: with Kamara because kmar is not a He doesn't even 272 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: play seventy of the snaps and he played some with 273 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: Murray at times too, you know. So so Tony Jones 274 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: will have some standalone value. Yeah right, Um, I think 275 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: it helps the saintstee which is a good d you know, 276 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: it's just not Yeah, the Texans are just trading anyone 277 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: they can, Yeah, getting whatever they can. Yeah, whatever they can. 278 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: This one's interesting. Romandi Stevenson. This is a bit of 279 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: a word, dislocated his thumb and practiced last week. Ouch 280 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: for one thing, he's a pretty good receiver for a 281 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: big back. I mean he's not, but you wonder, you know, 282 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: if he tries to play with that early in the season. 283 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: Kenny pass block, Kenny not fumble. Right. I think those 284 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: are two things that will get you in Belichick's doghouse 285 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: real quick, real quick. I think my only take away 286 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: for fantasy is I think if I'm Belichick, I probably 287 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: don't play him if it's closed because he's a rookie. 288 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: But I think it's really good news for their lead 289 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: back Harris Harris y. Yeah, because especially Mac Jones a quarterback, 290 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: Harris have a really good year. Yeah, he can catch 291 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: a football. Um mark Ingram and Phillips Lindsay are expected 292 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: to see most of the work and he run heavy. 293 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: Texans attack. I mean, they're gonna be losing by a million. 294 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: I know it's a jag, so maybe they hang around. 295 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: Here's the thing about the Texans, So yesterday they signed 296 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: Danny Amondola. What does that get you? They're gonna be bad. 297 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: They're gonna be bad. They trade away Bradley Roby because 298 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: he might actually help him win a game, then think 299 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: it and just signed Danny Amendola. What are you doing 300 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: with Danny Amondola? How does that make you any better? 301 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: Ingram and Philip lindsay, you're not finding anything out. I 302 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: would rather have some young guy. Just give me someone 303 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: young with upside. Yeah, and I understand the patriot connection 304 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: and all that, but you can't tell me Amandola is 305 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: going to bring all this culture to the to the 306 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: room or and he can't play anymore. If I'm the 307 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: owner of the Texans, I'm looking at this. I'm firing 308 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: everybody before they have even coached the game. Is you 309 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: guys are idiots? This is horrific. What are you trying 310 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: to do? I saw somebody tweeted out today that the 311 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: that they think that the you know, the Texans are 312 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: gonna win more games than the Jets because the Texans 313 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: have gone out and signed these these veteran guys. If 314 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: that's the If that's the case, like you're in a 315 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: you're trying to stink and and acquire draft picks. Well, 316 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: you're signing these these washed up veterans for this thing. 317 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: You're you're paying these guys real money. Danny Himndala is 318 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 1: gonna get two point five million dollars a couple million bucks, 319 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 1: and one year deals are like thirty some guys on 320 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: one year deals making over a million bucks? Like what 321 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: are we doing here? It's like you folks home for 322 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: the NFL. Right, they're all like guys that have started 323 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: games here and there and some names you know. But 324 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's really bad. Um. On our podcast today, 325 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,239 Speaker 1: we did over underwind totals, and I think they're over 326 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: underwind totals like four and a half. That's the easiest 327 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: under I've ever seen. Yeah, they can't win five games. 328 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 1: I wouldn't think they can go five and twelve, No way. 329 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: And even we're doing an eliminator poll two. I've never 330 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: done one, but I know how they work. Of course 331 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm taking the team you can't take the rest of 332 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: the year and picking the Jags in the first week. 333 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,479 Speaker 1: I mean they could lose like the Jags one in 334 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: for Week one last Jackson. The Jaguars might run for 335 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: three yards in that game. Then it was like awful 336 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: the right right, like James or what's the face? Washington's 337 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: a really good start to hear for the Jags this week. Uh, 338 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: no surprise here starting Jimmy Garoppolo. He's the starter. The 339 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: fact that they wouldn't say that before is ridiculous. For 340 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: all the trade Lance love. In the preseason, he completed 341 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: nineteen forty one passes and didn't look great throwing the ball. No, 342 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,959 Speaker 1: he completed less than fifty of his passes. He was 343 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: never going to be their starter in Week one. I 344 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 1: bet he sees the field, but Jimmy's gonna play almost 345 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:52,239 Speaker 1: all the snaps. Absolutely. Uh. This one kind of surprised me. 346 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: When the Eagles cut carry on Johnson. He must be 347 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: medically there's something they're like. If you're the Ravens, why 348 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't you have looked at him he had I'd rather 349 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: from what I've seen on the field and where they're 350 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: at in their careers, I'd rather carry on than all 351 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: those other names we talked about. Well, carry on Johnson 352 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: won't for the Raiders. I don't think doctors are big 353 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: on carry on john apparently not. Yeah, I think it's 354 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: any thing. Um, what would the Raiders possibly have that 355 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: You've already got two running backs that yeah, you get 356 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs and Kenyan Drake. Do you really need to 357 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: carry on Johnson? Use your money somewhere else, even other needs. No, 358 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: I don't understand that either. It doesn't make any sense. 359 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: And the only thing I can explain with him not 360 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: being more coveted around the league is just his medicals 361 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: must be bad. It's gotta be just yeah, yeah, something 362 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 1: really bad. Unfortunately I like the player. Yeah, how about this. 363 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: It was like it was a rookie year and I 364 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: was doing a Dynasty podcast and I said on the air, 365 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: carry On Johnson and Aaron Jones are exactly the same. 366 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: To me. I love these two bright futures in their 367 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: rookie year, like what I've seen. So five minutes after 368 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: it goes public, I get a trade offer in my 369 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: inbox from somebody that's listening that offers me carry On 370 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: in the third round rookie pick for Aaron Jones, which 371 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: I took him, like I'm taking the gravy here, and 372 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones is on his team still, and I've cut 373 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: carry On Johnson many times. They weren't the same. They 374 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: were not. Um, it's an interesting one here. The Ravens 375 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: waved injured running back Justice Hill. Yeah, I'm sure they 376 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 1: didn't stick with them. I actually thought he was a 377 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: little sneaky, great combine guy. Something's missing though. I wonder 378 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: if he's not not assignment sound. He's explosive, not real big. 379 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: I mean they do like physical runners. I guess you 380 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: know they'll he'll other teams can now claim him. Of 381 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: course you then just put him on injured reserve. But 382 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: why don't you just put him on injured reserve? Yeah? Right, 383 00:20:58,119 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: I don't like he's making a ton of money. Yeah, 384 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: you rookie deal. You're getting rid of his contract there, 385 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: save base a little bit, right, Yeah. I mean I 386 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,199 Speaker 1: don't know that he has a bright future, you know, 387 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 1: anyway you cut it. But I thought he was interesting 388 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: once the Dobbins injury happened. I was keeping an eye 389 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: on him. Yeah. I'm just gonna take a real quick 390 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: look here at some some Week one productions our projections here, um, 391 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 1: Davante Adams projected at nine two receiving yards. That's they 392 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: got the Saints, right, I mean, he'll probably see a 393 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of more. Just starting to get 394 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: my mind around the matchups this week, so I'll be 395 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: more on top of this tomorrow. Stefan Diggs is projected 396 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: at a hundred and four receiving yards against I mean, 397 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: he's a massive target, you know the demander. I don't 398 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 1: see if anybody's projected higher than that. And I'm looking 399 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,479 Speaker 1: here at none of the guys that they're projecting here 400 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: at the receiver position position. This is Yahoo standard scoring 401 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: is projected have a bigger week than stuff on Diggs. 402 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd buy that one. Yeah, we 403 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: have a dv DFS conversation. If he's the number one receiver, 404 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: I'm not buying it. No, No, I mean, I'm sure 405 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: there's better values than Super paying for him. It's I mean, 406 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: I'm sure he'll do well. He's awesome, and he did well. 407 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: My number one guy would be Calvin Ridley against the Eagles. 408 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: Pretty good one. They're gonna be throw and throw and 409 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: they can't run the ball. Yeah, they're not gonna run 410 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: the ball against that that Eagles front. Here. Do Seattle 411 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: have Seattle plays Indianapolis? Yeah, they don't. How big players 412 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: would say metcalf, I thought I had a better matchup 413 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 1: than that. Uh, yeah, that's not a bad one. Tyreek 414 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: against the Browns could be decent. J Brown against Arizona. 415 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: Both those receivers against Arizona. Yeah, against Tannehill might be 416 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: a good start for DFS. I bet he's getting pretty cheap. Yeah, yeah, 417 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: that their corner situation. Jacob bad bad, not a lot 418 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 1: of stealer picks. Also, Tyreek Hill against the Browns would 419 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: be yeah strong, They're gonna like I don't know what 420 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 1: the spread is. I haven't looked. I don't know either. 421 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: I think this. I think the Chiefs win that game 422 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: by two touchdowns at least. I think they go out 423 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: of their way to embarrass him a little bit. I 424 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: think they if it gets to that point. The Browns 425 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: have been doing a little talking, right, let's squash this 426 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: team easy. They're easy. They're little guys. You're not quite 427 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: on our level yet. Yeah, they're up ten with five 428 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: minutes left, and there's a bomb to Tyree could absolutely 429 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: be in the cards. Yeah. You interested in anybody for 430 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: DFS in tomorrow night's game? Not Elliott. Their receivers aren't bad. Um, 431 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: I see. I think Zeke could have some success. He 432 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: has catching catching football and that means Pollard won't. But 433 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: I can see z catching five passes in that game 434 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: for forty yards. And you know they're hard to run against. 435 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: Slot corn or slot receivers do well against Tampa, which 436 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: will be Lamb, but there's posedly moving those three more 437 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: than they did in Lamb's first year. I'd try away 438 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: from Doc if you can, just because you probably can't. 439 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: Like I i'd play Brady over Dad if you're if 440 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: you're like if well, if you drafted if right, But 441 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: in the DFS, you can probably find a better matchup exactly. 442 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 1: I was thinking more if you had options, Like, I 443 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: think Brady over a better game than than that. Yeah, yeah, 444 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: Deck might run a little bit, Mike. I wish I 445 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: saw more of them, like injuries and things coming back 446 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: off an ankle injury. But yeah, bucks are hard. I mean, 447 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: I think all three of the receivers are very startable 448 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 1: of super easy. Which one Yeah, one's gonna let you 449 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: down though, yeah, and it might and I don't know, 450 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: it's always gonna be a b Like I think Evans 451 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: is probably the steadiest guy because he catches the touchdowns, 452 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: like even last year, once Aby got rolling, Evans would 453 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 1: have two catches for seventeen years, but they both be touchdowns. Yeah, 454 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 1: and even in Brady definitely looked towards Evans as a 455 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: red zone weapon, you know, But what you do with it. 456 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: You got a six ft five receiver, Why wouldn't You 457 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't think would take that long to figure out. You know, 458 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 1: not that other teams didn't, but you know, Brady certainly 459 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 1: featured them down low. But they got other guys too, 460 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean Gronk's job as well. And you know they're 461 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: not as great for fantasy as you think. Three were 462 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: three receivers, two tight ends, three running backs. The Brady 463 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: he spreads the ball around too much. Yeah. I actually 464 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: took Brady in that league late late. I mean, he 465 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: won't run at all, but I think he's gonna throw 466 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns. We will see. That's gonna do 467 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: it for the Fantasy Football Focus today. Uh so, Matt, 468 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: it's a good matchup tomorrow night. Yeah, I'm looking forward 469 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: to the first NFL game of the season. Yeah, if 470 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: you feel a little rough, I mean it's tough on Dallas. 471 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: I mean to walk into that environment, but I mean 472 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: their offense should be able to do stuff every year. Yeah, 473 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: suffer whoever that's gonna bed. It's the Christians and Alliance. 474 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: I had a Bucks question for you though. I picked 475 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 1: Geo really late in that draft too. Yeah, I think 476 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: he's the back I want, all things being equal, I mean, 477 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: of those three, he went last by a wide margin. 478 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: I don't know that I want any of them. I 479 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 1: don't want any of them, right, but I think Brady 480 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 1: brought him there for a reason. And you don't want 481 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: James White either, even in Brady's heyday. But he's gonna 482 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 1: catch passes. It's funny because I drafted Melvin Gordon late 483 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: in my draft. He's way cheaper than and the in 484 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: the guy who took Giovanni Bernard in the same round 485 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: was laughing at me, and I'm like, dude, I'm looking 486 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: at his back. So I'm like, my fifth running back 487 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: is Melvin Gordon. You're fifth running like you've got four 488 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: or third down backs. That's not fun.
