Typically on Tuesdays we do waiver wires, 5 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: but at this point in the season, I don't know 6 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: if there's a ton on the waiver wire. We can 7 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about that in a few minutes. 8 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: But I wanted to pick a DFS lineup for the 9 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 1: Thursday night games. Oh, throw me a curveball, Yeah, give 10 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: us a little something to watch on the Thursday with Turkey. 11 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, just to pull back the curtain here. We're 12 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,959 Speaker 1: doing shows today and tomorrow. Tomorrow will be our last 13 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: show for the week, so we'll do our regular DFS 14 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: lineup for Sunday on Wednesday, which is going to be 15 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: a little interesting. Yeah, So we won't have a show 16 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: Thursday or Friday because of the holiday. So I thought 17 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: we'd pick a DFS lineup for the three Thursday night 18 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: games today to give us a little something to watch, 19 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: and you know, maybe people might want If I were 20 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,759 Speaker 1: a listener to the Drive, I'd be like, thanks, gaus 21 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: be someone to put a couple absolutely because you put 22 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: a line up in and give us up the route 23 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: for We're now eight and three picking DFS lineups this 24 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 1: weekend this season. I mean we're killing it. Uh, standard 25 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: of the standard absolutely. Uh. Looking at the defenses this week, 26 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: as we always start with the defense. Has you got 27 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys at thirty seven hundred, the Bills at thirty 28 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: four hundred, the Vikings at the Patriots on the other 29 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: side of that at three thousand, the Giants at two hundred, 30 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: and the Lions at twenty one. Mm hmm. I feel 31 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: kind of good about the planking. Yeah, I was kind 32 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: of leaning that way as well. Um, I can't see 33 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: New England putting up many points at all. I just yeah, 34 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: I think that's a solid start. Saves us a little 35 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: bit of money there, But yeah, I can't go with 36 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 1: any of those other Yeah, Giants in Detroit or knows 37 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: for me. I mean I could see maybe maybe playing 38 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: the Patriots, but it only saves you a hundred dollars 39 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: from the Vikings, and I think the Vikings with a 40 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: better pick. I mean, this is a different situation for us. 41 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: I mean road Thursday games or not where I like 42 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: to put my money, that's for sure. But Buffalo is 43 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: a big favorite in Detroit too, you know, so are 44 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: they the team because they just played a game in Detroit? 45 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: Right right? Um, let's start with the Vikes and go 46 00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: from there a quarterback or tight end. Next you're called, 47 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: let's go, let's go quarterback. Since it is such a 48 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: short I mean, there's only so many opportunities here. So yeah, yeah. 49 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: So you got Josh Allen at eight thousand light years, 50 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: so he's yeah. Next up is Dak Prescott at six. 51 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: You got Kirk Cousins at fifty six hundred, Daniel Jones 52 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: at fifty five hundred, Jared Goff at fifty two hundred, 53 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:33,839 Speaker 1: Mac Jones at fifty one hundred, max the only one 54 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: I would veto that that there's no case for. I 55 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: mean I think there's a chance we see Zappy. I 56 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: mean I think that's possible. I think it's possible to. Yeah. Plus, 57 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: I don't want the quarterback against our defense. This is true. 58 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: Do you pay down for Presscotter Cousins or do you 59 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: go with the chalk and go Allen at eight thousand. 60 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: I was leaning towards Dak. Okay, I'm not gonna fight you. Yeah, 61 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 1: I mean that to me, is noticed will be better 62 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: than cousins. Um, but if we can finagle this thing 63 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: and come back to Alan, I'll love it. But it 64 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: would be you think he'll be will he be? Chalk? 65 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: I think your your casual players again, We're gonna we're 66 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: gonna double up here with almost seven thousand players. They 67 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: don't typically you don't typically get that many players in 68 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: a game. So we just gotta finish it up in 69 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: the top fifty percent here. So um, I don't hate 70 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:42,559 Speaker 1: it going with dak um No, that's my vote for now. Okay, 71 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: well we'll put him in there and see where where 72 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: this goes. That leaves us with an average of hundred 73 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: to spend on the rest of this Uh, let's move 74 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: over to tight end here and see if we can. Well, 75 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: the tight ends are cheap this week. You can get 76 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: Hawkins so quickly. I asked you a question real quick, like, 77 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: dred to spend? Is that translate to our normal Friday 78 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: shows and spend or it's the same money, Yeah, you 79 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: know it's it's it's the same they waited, basically the same. Yeah, 80 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: we're gonna get the same quality players hundred that we 81 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: usually do. Yeah, they're just aren't as many of them. 82 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: That's the program. Yeah, okay, where you know, the intelligence 83 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: of some people like us who might have a little 84 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: more inside information and or knowledge. Um, kind of gets 85 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: thrown out the window here. Uh. T J. Hawkinson is 86 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: five thousand to lead to tight ends. Dalton Schultz ist hundred, 87 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: Dawson Knox thirty five hundred. He's come on a little bit. 88 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: That's a bad defense hunter. Henry thirty one, Johnny Smith 89 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 1: thirty three thousand. Um, really no reason to go or anything. Yeah, Um, 90 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: leaning towards Knox, Schultz would give us a stack with 91 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: Prescott though, and it's only a three difference. Knox would 92 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: get us, you know, if we pay for knoxually it's 93 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: again it's only three hundred dollars. Does that then get 94 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: us maybe a chance at digs or something like that. Um, 95 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like Schultz should be that far behind Hawk. 96 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: It doesn't, No, I hear you. If you look at 97 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: his you know, the last couple of games here for Schultz, 98 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: he's really kind of u turned the corner here a 99 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: little bay. Last week was six for seventy four. A 100 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: week before that was five forty nine. Uh. There were 101 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: a couple of games there in between that where he 102 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: wasn't very good, but those weren't on that games. Um. 103 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: You know, if you go back to Week one when 104 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: Dak played, it was seven for sixty two. Here's what 105 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: suggestion is, let's put Schultz in. Let's go find a cheapy, 106 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: cheap e wide receiver, okay, and let's see where that 107 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: come back and see where Yeah, I hear good thought. Okay, 108 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 1: wide receiver Justin Jefferson is number one of the two hundred. 109 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: Let's not do that now. It started like the well, 110 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: we don't have that many to pick for here. So 111 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: Mu Digs is eight thousand, Ceedee Lamb is seventy one, 112 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: d A. Moan ros st Brown is sixty si hundred, 113 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: Gabe Davis is fifty three hundred, Jacoby Meyers fifty one hundred, 114 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: Darius Slayton is five thousand, Adam Thieland is for um. 115 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup is forty six hundred. Josh Reynolds, I don't 116 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if he plays this week, he's questionable. 117 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: Calif Raymond forty one hundred, Isaiah Mackenzie four thousand, uh, 118 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay undred yeah, kJ Osborne thirty six hundred Noah 119 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: Brown thirty five hundred, Richie James thirty four hundred, Kendrick 120 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: Born thirty four hundred. I think we're pretty much out 121 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: of the that's about the what you got this week. 122 00:07:53,280 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: Do you like anyone out of Mackenzie Osborne Noah Brown? Uh, yeah, 123 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: Kenzie Osborne, No. Bron probably feel the best about Mackenzie, 124 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: but he's coming off a game where he had one 125 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: target and did not catch a pass. No. Um, Osborne 126 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: is since Hawkinson came on board, has become kind of yeah, 127 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: tough to play. He had two for seventeen last week. 128 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: Noah Brown two for forty two last week. Um, he's 129 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: had some moments this year that he has. But if 130 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna do that, why not just pay up to 131 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: forty six dollars? Uh, it's dollars to play gallop, I guess. 132 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: I mean the guys I liked the best were st. 133 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: Brown and Slayton for real guys. Yeah, well, let's let's 134 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: put st. Brown and Slayton in and see where that 135 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: puts us here. So Slayton gets us under under budget 136 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: at five thousand. That's great, that's great. Yeah, now the 137 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: number one, Now we can average almost six hundred dollars 138 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: for other players here. Okay, do you want to go 139 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: to running backs or do you want to put st 140 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: Brown in and see where that takes us. St. Brown 141 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: would would put us at We can average sixty the 142 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: rest of the way. That's still a pretty big box 143 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: the share. You know, we can actually throw Gabe Davis 144 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: in there to get on the other side of that 145 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: Detroit defense. I'm not a game Davis guy. Against that 146 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: Lions defense. He's got at five for sixty eight last 147 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: week if you look at they're playing in the very 148 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: boom bust. The week before that, it was six two 149 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: for thirty three, two for thirty five, three for seventy four, 150 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: three for three for one seventy one. Of course against 151 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: the Steelers, um it's been. It doesn't catch many passes, 152 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: but it's fifty dollars. If that lets us get two 153 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: stud running backs. Let's go to running backs first receiver 154 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: spot because Brown Layton in there. He's under budget, so 155 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: you can get Sa Kuan at eight thousand. The Cowboys 156 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: aren't great stopping the run. Dalvin Cook at seventy hundred, 157 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: Tony Pollard at sixty, Vermond Ray Stevenson at hundred, Jamal 158 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: Williams at uh. You can get Zeke Elliott at fifty 159 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: eight hundred, Devon Singletary at fifty seven hundred, DeAndre Swift 160 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: at uh, Damien Harris at hundred, Alexander Madison hundred. Then 161 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: you're into the James Cook is fort hundred. That's about 162 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: it for the guys, Josh Jackson ist Justin Jefferson is 163 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: uh four thousand. My four favorites were Stevenson, Pollard, Swift, 164 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: and Cook. We don't have to pay down here, I 165 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: didn't think so. I mean I think yuh now, Paular 166 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: just sixty dred so he would be over budget, as 167 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: would Stevenson. We can actually afford both of those guys. 168 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: We we could go Pollard Stevenson. I like it. I've 169 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: been Pollard has been phenomenal. That puts us right on 170 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: our on our budget number. That gives us in six 171 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: to spend each on the on the other two positions. 172 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: So if we did go as I was saying, if 173 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 1: we went with Gabe Davis at we might be able 174 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 1: to spend up. That would give us seventy to spend 175 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: on our flex, which would get a Stalvin Cook ceedee 176 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: lamb uh Ramondre Stevenson. What if we did this? Okay, 177 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: if we put Swift or Cook as our flex, could 178 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: we get stuff on Diggs? Swift or Cook? Okay, I'm 179 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: gonna put Swift in there, and that gives us in 180 00:11:54,800 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: remaining who we then take out? Uh, you're talking about St. 181 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: Brown is our most expensive guy. I thought we needed 182 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: a receiver that would get us. If we did that, 183 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: it would get us any receiver we wanted. You're saying 184 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: digs eight and let me see what. Let's see if 185 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: if we take Okay, so I took St. Brown and 186 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: gave Davis out of the lineup. I forgot you gave Davis. 187 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: I want to see. It looked like that gives us. 188 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: So if he went and you want to go Dicks, 189 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: that's eight thousand, that leads us. That leads us to 190 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: spend on the other receiver spot, which is Gabe Davis. Okay, 191 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: so what I'm a little confused. That would be Dak Schultz, Bikes, 192 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: Stevenson Pollard. That's uh. Oh I put Jamal Williams in 193 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: there instead of Pollard went a second? That changes things 194 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 1: a little bit. Who Stevenson? So I wanted in there? 195 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: That leaves usaid fifty which guess what is exactly what 196 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: gave Davis costs? Mm hmm. Interesting. So you have you 197 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: have Prescott, Pollard, Stevenson, Slayton digs uh gave Davis, Dalton Schultz, 198 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift and the Vikings. Interesting. I was kind of interested. 199 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: So who's our flex right now? It's DeAndre Swift? Okay, okay, cool, 200 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: run that line up by me again. Please Prescott at 201 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: Prescott a quarterback, Pollard and Stevenson at the running back positions. 202 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: I really like that. Slayton digs right now, I don't 203 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: have anybody in that other receiver spot, but gave Davis 204 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: is fifty dollars and we have fifty Dalton Schultz at 205 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: tight end, Swift at running back at fifty d and 206 00:13:55,559 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 1: if as the flex and then the Vikings defense. I 207 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: think that's great and we could lock that up if 208 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: you want with Davis. But I have one question first, Okay, 209 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: how much more expensive is st Brown than Davis? Okay, 210 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: so getting cheap at tight end doesn't really shoulder hundred bucks. 211 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: We're not gonna get much cheaper than that for a 212 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: guy gonna get five catches in this game. Okay. I 213 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: wanted to get St. Brown in the lineup, is my point. 214 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: But I thought him and Davis would be they're right 215 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: next to each other in the rankings, but there's a 216 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: big drop off from St. Brown too. Gave Davis. Now 217 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: you could cook, you could get Jacobe Myers if you 218 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: like him, Ben Davis or I don't either. I think 219 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: Davis gives you a hi upside. Yeah, then we have 220 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: both bills receivers. It could be very nice. Which gets 221 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: a secretary in a dome on Thanksgiving? When the yeah? 222 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, all right, I'm gonna try one more other 223 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: thing here. If you turned Swift into Cook, Swift into 224 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: which cook? Oh a little brother Bill's cook James Cook? Okay, 225 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: does Davis turn into St. Brown? Uh? We're a hundred 226 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: dollars short. Okay. I think they've told us what we 227 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: should do. Then, yes, they've They've made this this somewhere somebody. 228 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: So I pull him out. Uh, Swift ist Dred. Now 229 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: if we went with Damien Harris, I don't know that 230 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: doesn't get that that never mind. I think it's a 231 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: dollar the money. Um, I'm just looking here at who 232 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: else we could throw in. Was there a defense we 233 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: were torn with? You know? That's a hundred dollars cheaper 234 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: than the bikes. Yeah, the Patriots, I would consider that, 235 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: would you rather of Okay, who are the three vikes? Swift? 236 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: Dave Davis? Sound like Swift? Inness? I think it's a 237 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: blow up spot for too. Did Cooks just kind of 238 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: a hunch for me? Yeah, now I hear you on 239 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: that one. But Swift, that's I think Swift is doing. 240 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: There's no he has no injury designation this week, No, 241 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: I know. And they're gonna be behind. They're gonna be behind. Okay, 242 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: that's that's my last question. But I think we agree. 243 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: Would rather have vikes Swift and Gabe or Pat's little 244 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: brother Cook and st Brown? Yeah? I think so too. Yeah, 245 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: I think I think Davis scores this week? Um there, Yeah, 246 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: all right, Well I'm gonna enter it. We're in it 247 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: in locked and loaded. Uh. In terms of looking at 248 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: waiver wire pickups this week, Matt, we've we've gone over 249 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: a lot of these guys. Are not anybody that these 250 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: are guys we've talked about week after week after week 251 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: after week at this point, But there are a couple 252 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: of names out there, uh, that you look at and say, mmmm, 253 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: this is a new name. We did. We did talk 254 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: about this one guy a couple of weeks ago when 255 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: he had a game and he said, put him on 256 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: your watch list, de Marcus Robinson. Yeah, I think he's there, 257 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: number one. Yeah, I think so. Uh, that's two in 258 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,719 Speaker 1: the last three weeks where he's been the guy. Um. 259 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if people remember him coming 260 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: out of college, but he was like a second round 261 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: talent that had some baggage and fell, you know. And 262 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: but he's not lacking talent, is my point. No, I 263 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,239 Speaker 1: I hear you on that one. Isaiah Pacheco still only 264 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: owned in forty three point seven percent. That's ESPN leagues 265 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: that that should chance. I mean, he's the number one. 266 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 1: He's number one on a great offense, and they will 267 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: run the ball sometimes yeah sometimes. Yeah. Rashad White, don't 268 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: forget about him coming back off the by He's only 269 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: owned in thirty or four point four percent of leagues. 270 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: Should be in leagues. We talked a little bit about 271 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: Latavius Murray yesterday. He's now the only game in town. 272 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds is hurt with the high ankle sprain, and 273 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: uh they've released Melvin Gordon, the only other guy they've got, um, 274 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: what's his face? The former and Boone's even hurt. Yeah, 275 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: I mean they just it's it's his backfield. It's backfield 276 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: to be the guy, but it's his backfield. And is 277 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 1: he an RB two? Now that might be a little rich. 278 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: They don't score. I mean he's a flex option based 279 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 1: on volume, I think, mm hmm. But I mean you 280 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: can put him in your lineup. Yeah, so j P. 281 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: Ryan is gonna be a hot name. He's owned in 282 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: three point eight percent of leagues. Of course, Joe mixing 283 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: in concussion protocol. Um, it's a one week fix if 284 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: you get him, probably, but if you know, if you're 285 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,479 Speaker 1: got teams on to buy, you know you got an 286 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: issue with a um you know, hey I need some 287 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: of Yeah, they'd before they're at Tennessee this week. Yeah, 288 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: they're tough to run on. I mean he'll he'll be 289 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: he'll catch passes. I mean that's you will you know, 290 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: if it maxing out you really want p rhymes obviously 291 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: you probably won't know that answer and when your waivers run, 292 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: but put in for him, especially you're a mixing owner. Absolutely, 293 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: if you're a mixing owner, you should have already had 294 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: him but should have him. Yeah. Yeah, looking here at 295 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: this week's dates are real quickly are the games I 296 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: should say, of course the on the buys this week 297 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: are I thought they were none. Oh eight, there are 298 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: no bias. Never mind, because the three Thanksgiving game next 299 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: week there's there. We're back to bias. But so you 300 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: got Buffalo Detroit obviously your Buffalo defenses owned Giants Dallas. 301 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: You're gonna start Dallas there and every week starting You're 302 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: not gonna start New York against Dallas. New England at Minnesota. 303 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: I guess you could stream either one of those defenses. Yeah, 304 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: we just kind of talked about that. New England's probably 305 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: highly owned already. Uh, Tampa, is that Cleveland playing the 306 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 1: Tampa defense at Cleveland, not playing the Browns Maybe Tampa. Yeah, 307 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: Cincinnati's at Tennessee. I kind of like both defenses, although 308 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,719 Speaker 1: I don't like Tennessee. I don't like Tennessee's as much 309 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: as I like Cincinnati's. Yeah, yeah, I mean Burrows, although 310 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: I do think Tennessee will get some sacks. Probably they 311 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: get some Simmons is back. Houston is at Miami. Miami 312 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: might be the start of the week. No, they are, Yeah, 313 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: they're They're the stream of the week without a doubt. 314 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: Chicago is that the Jets. They could be high on 315 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: that streamer list based on you know, if if Fields 316 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: plays or not. Even if he does play, he stopped 317 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: running as much because because of the shoulder, and he 318 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: used to stay in the pocket. Oh look out. The 319 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: Jets might be an every week start everywhere. Yeah, they've 320 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: been pretty good. Uh. Atlanta is at Washington. Is Washington 321 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: startable this week? I think so? I think so too. Yeah. 322 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: I think that's that's one that's feasible that'll be out 323 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: there and get you through Denver. Is that Carolina? Oh baby, 324 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: that's right. I can't Sam Donald. That's Christmas in in November. Yeah. 325 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 1: Baltimore is at Jacksonville. Mm hmm. I guess the Ravens. 326 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: But I just getting some better options out there than 327 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: I mean, like six of them. I prefer Washington to 328 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: those two. Yeah, I think so too. The Chargers are 329 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: at Arizona. I don't know if I can start either 330 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: one of those teams. Yeah, I don't like either. The 331 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: Raiders are at Seattle. You can start Seattle this week? 332 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: I think maybe Seattle. Not the Raiders ever ever. Uh. 333 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: The Rams are at Kansas City. Kansas City's I say, 334 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: I don't think Stafford plays. I don't think he does either. Yeah, 335 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: he's the second concussion and through in in in a 336 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: couple of three weeks. Uh, he's not playing in that game. 337 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: Their their backup quarterback situation. This is what killed like 338 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: Mason ut. I could nobody want Mason Rudolph in this situation. Like, 339 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,959 Speaker 1: there's some garbage starting in games right now. Brutal, brutal 340 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: made much better what the Rams are playing with. Yeah, 341 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: the Saints are at San Francisco. Obviously, the forty Niners 342 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: are highly owned. You're not starting the Saints defense. Green 343 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: Bay is at Philadelphia, got start? Yeah, the Eagles defenses 344 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: that must start every week, and then Pittsburgh in Indianapolis. 345 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: Both I think both are in play. Yeah, yeah, I 346 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 1: think both our borderline every week starters period. Yeah. Interesting, 347 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: a lot of good. We should have some nice choices 348 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: there when it comes to, uh making our dfs lineup 349 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: tomorrow for Sunday's games. Yes, one of those teams has 350 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: to be cheap. One of those ones that we liked 351 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: has to be, you know, pretty low on the Washington 352 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: or Seattle Steelers might be the Steelers are low last week, 353 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: Steelers are always cheap, yeah, which is crazy. That's not 354 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: bad to me. Yeah, absolutely, Matt. That's gonna do it 355 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: for our show today.
