29
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: I mean, this is what I love. You just got back,

30

Speaker 1: on that issue, so I'll just say my attorney advises

33
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: me not Tom fair enough. By the way, I have

34
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: one thing I have to do, speaking of our company,

35
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: I have one corporal thing to get out of the way.

36
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 1: Apparently there's a new contest going on. If you create

37
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: a team before kickoff, you will be entered for a

38
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: chance to win a trip to Super Bowl fifty two.

39
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: So there's no purchase necessary. It ends on September seven.

40
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: But if you get no I mean, well, I think

41
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 1: it started over the weekend maybe, but so in the

42
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: next several days, get some chumps together, create a league,

43
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 1: and you'll have a chance to go to Super Bowl

44
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: fifty two. And if you have a team already, what

45
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: is preventing you from creating another team? Yeah, on NFL

77
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: your top headlines, the camera highlights in the world of sport,

78
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: breaking breaking news, breakingly, continue to follow breaking newslection news,

79
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: your wife. Oh, this is gonna be chunky baby, this

80
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: is gonna be a big news block and we'll start.

81
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: We'll start with a little bit of breaking news, right

82
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 1: because the Colts did trade to get your Koby percent.

83
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: But it looks as if well, I mean, it shouldn't

84
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: really surprise you right too much. But they're gonna be

85
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: going Scott Tolzene starting week one. It will not, of

86
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: course be Andrew Luck. No surprise there. Uh and again

87
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: Drew Koby said just basically got on the team, so

88
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: I'm sure he will be learning the playbook extensively over

89
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: the next few weeks. All right, so we get that

90
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: one out of the way. Let but let's start really

91
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: with Willie Snead suspended three Should we touch on what

92
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: to do with the t y and stuff, with Luck

93
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: not starting in tolzin being in there against the defense

94
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,679
Speaker 1: on the road. I'll tell you what. We've got them all.

95
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: We've got all that down there because Philip Dorset traded

96
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: down there too, So we will get to that. Okay,

97
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: Let's start with Snead because I think I think Snead

98
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: is the most interesting one. Um. And again I know

99
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: that the man to my left here, Matt Harmon, he's

100
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: just chomping at the bit, he's chumping at the bit

101
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: to get after this one. But Willie Sneed's has spended

102
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 1: three games this for violating the League's substance abuse policy.

103
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 1: So who is next up man? Is it Teddy Gain?

104
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: Is it a sneaky uptick for the much reviled Kobe Fleaner,

105
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 1: Maybe Alvin Kamara getting a little bit of an optick.

106
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: I don't know, Matt harmon your thoughts here. It's a

107
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: it's good question because I think this does also kind

108
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: of serve as a reminder that the Saints receiving corps

109
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: is much more shallow, I think, right now than it

110
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: has been in the lightst few years. And I think

111
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: this sneed suspension. You know, it was true obviously before that,

112
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: but this kind of brings it up to the forefront

113
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: now because I like ted Gain as a as a

114
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: third wide receiver there in New Orleans. But you know,

115
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: you're now you're asking him to be the clear number two,

116
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: which he was mostly on the gunna play on the

117
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: outside and in three wide receiver sets and maybe even

118
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: two wide receiver sets too, So this is a this

119
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: is a pretty big it's a pretty big deal. I

120
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: think for Sneed personally, it's it's disappointing because he's a

121
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: player I really liked. I have always really liked him

122
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: as soon as he kind of hit the field in

123
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: the NFL, and now this is just like a roadblock

124
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: and a player that that really was trending up and

125
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: and should have taken a big step this year, which

126
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: I'm sure he still will once he gets out there.

127
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: But this does leave the Saints a little more shallow

128
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: than they were obviously with with Sneed in there. Does

129
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: anyone like the again the I guess how much of

130
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: an uptick for Teddy gain because I don't know, man,

131
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm seeing on mine you know, folks on

132
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: Twitter saying that ted Ginsha now go from undrafted to

133
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: going into like the eighth or ninth round, And I'm

134
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: I'm not sure I can buy that those people were

135
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: hitting the holiday weekend a little too hard in my estimation. Again, again,

136
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: should should certainly be drafted, and he might have some value,

137
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: especially in the shootout type of games that the Saints

138
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: will fall into. But I don't think we need to

139
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: overreact here or move anybody much higher up draft boards

140
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: or Week one rankings. Does does Snead? I mean, how

141
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: much does Sneed move down? Yeah? I think a lot

142
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: of folks were really excited about Snead coming into the season,

143
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: But you missed three games. I mean, he was going

144
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: in seventh round. He's probably what eleven now maybe so

145
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: I think, well back to the gain point too, I

146
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: think if people were saying he should not have been

147
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: drafted uh first day, were wrong there because I thought

148
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: he was definitely a draftable player. I had him at

149
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: wide receiver forty nine before this news, Okay, because I

150
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: still think he was going to post a lot of

151
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: really relevant weeks. And of course I know it's gonna

152
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: be tough to predict when they are blah blah blah blah.

153
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: That's the point. But you know you're still gonna get

154
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: that high week the ceiling from him, and I think

155
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: that that becomes much more appealing now in these first

156
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: three games. And as for Sneed, he does become a

157
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: pretty tough draft pick in like a single digit round.

158
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, if you're still drafting, I think you

159
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: can get him as a nice value, but um, you

160
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: know you're not getting like a superstar when he returns

161
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: from the from those first three games. You're getting, you know,

162
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: a solid wide receiver too. If we've seen if we've

163
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: seen anything from Drew Brees to the evolution of his

164
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: game and the evolution of the Saints offense is they

165
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: don't attack downfield quite as much UM, and I think

166
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: part of that is to help preserve Drew Brees from

167
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: you know, taking big hits um. But they've become much

168
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: more ball control offense, and really, I think a lot

169
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: of it has to do with the fact that they're

170
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 1: trying to shield their defense a little bit, because their

171
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: defense obviously has been, you know, historically one of the

172
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: worst in the league, if not the worse in the league.

173
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: So a little bit more ball control. That's what Sneed's

174
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: value is is in that offense. He's a great possession

175
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: guy underneath, runs great rounds, has great hands, uh, and

176
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: obviously Drew Brees trust him, So he's on Teddy Gains,

177
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: that nine round guy, the guy who's going to stretch

178
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: the field. That's why I kind of wonder if Kobe

179
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: Fleaner might get an uptick here. Does anyone kind of

180
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: buy that thought? Not not enough to make a huge difference, honestly,

181
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: Like he's Breeze is so good at spreading the ball

182
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: around like Sheriff Lenner could see a few more targets,

183
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: but it's not suddenly going to be the case where

184
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: he's turning into the Travis Kelsey or Rob Gronkowski of

185
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: the offense. Alright, Saints start off, Vikings, Patriots, Panthers. Those

186
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: are probably like the three games that you would project

187
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: them to score a little bit less points than they

188
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: normally would. Those are all pretty tough defense, maybe the Pats.

189
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 1: I think that. I think the Panthers are gonna have

190
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: a really good defense. And it's and it's in Carolina.

191
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: It's not in Orleans revenge game for Ted gin eight

192
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: yard touchdown, but up two of them, but then coming

193
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: back and then coming back from that, They've got the Dolphins, Lions, Packers, Bears, Bucks.

194
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: That's a really slam dunk schedule there for the rest

195
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: of the stead, Packers and gl shot you look know that.

196
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: I think it was I'm just looking to stir the

197
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: pot here. Yeah, I like it all right. The Bill

198
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: shocking only cut Jonathan Williams, The twenty three year old

199
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: running back, was expected to be the primary backup to

200
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy. That job, all of a sudden is Mike Tolbert's.

201
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: I just I mean, I read this and I'm thinking,

202
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: what how did they cut Jonathan Williams? They don't have

203
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: a lot of depth at the running back position. And

204
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 1: I know Jonathan Williams had been struggling somewhat in past

205
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: protection and you know, they had some ball security issues

206
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: and you know he was reportedly struggling to figure to

207
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: pick up the offensive bit. But when he got out there,

208
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: I didn't think he looked bad at all. I kind

209
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: of liked the way he kind of looked. Again, not

210
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: a guy that I'm I'm gonna be, you know, blowing

211
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: a hundred dollars worth of fab budget on. But you know,

212
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: if Shady were to miss any time, yeah, solid pickup

213
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 1: Jonathan Williams. Now he's gone, Uh, franchise, what are you

214
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: making the news? I mean, I don't know why they

215
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: did this. They have next to nothing, uh in terms

216
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: of depth. But McCoy, it's kind of crazy to just

217
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: let a guy like Williams go like that. I don't

218
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 1: get it. I mean, I know a lot of people

219
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: had Williams on deep sleeper list, Like Gelhar wrote a

220
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: whole piece that Jonathan Williams is kind of leading as

221
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: a deep sleeper. I was telling people to draft him

222
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,679
Speaker 1: late in rounds as a shady handcuff. It's kind of

223
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: it was a super trendy late round. It doesn't really

224
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: make sense. There must there's got to be something underlying.

225
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: I know he had like a hamstring and a knee

226
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 1: injury in the preseason, but it's definitely a shock. I

227
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: think the next two guys behind him have combined like

228
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: sixty career carries a lot. Well, I'm not counting Tilburg

229
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: fullback like Joe Baniard and Taiwan Jones have like a

230
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: combined sixty issues. That's the guy who used to be

231
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: on the Raiders, but then he's like switched between running

232
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: a running back in cornerback at times. I think he

233
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 1: may have the same. Yeah, I don't know, so that's

234
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 1: the state of it. But it's this is kind of

235
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 1: also a point where why it's dangerous to sometimes his

236
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 1: draft handcuffs. I think the thinking with Williams was that

237
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: he was more than a handcuff though, because gillisly had

238
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 1: you know, caries or whatever, a bunch of touchdowns last year,

239
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: so you thought you might have at least flex value

240
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: with Williams. But now that Bill's offense, man, I'm not

241
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: touching anybody not named Leshawn McCoy. Yeah, it'll be worth

242
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: watching to see where he if he gets picked up anywhere,

243
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: because I think that would tell you a lot about

244
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: what the rest of the league thinks about Jonathan Williams,

245
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 1: whether fantasy analysts like us we're just too excited about

246
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: the potential there, or whether the NFL actually agrees that, now,

247
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: this is a really talented player. I mean, you know,

248
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: he's over two or twenty pounds. He did miss his

249
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: final year of college with injury issues, and maybe that's

250
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: what really did finally put the nail on the coffin

251
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: there in Buffalo. But draft analysts like Greg Cosel really liked, uh,

252
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: Jonathan Williams. The city was like one of those talented

253
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: backs of that draft class. So pretty pretty weird arc

254
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: of his career here. But you know, I wouldn't rule

255
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: it out that he ends up on some other roster

256
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: and and becomes relevant again, and I think he's going

257
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: to I mean again Giants or something. Need I mean, yeah,

258
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: there are some there's definitely some backup running back gigs

259
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: up for up for grabs, no doubt about it, all, right,

260
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: Jeremy Lankford, speaking of backup running backs, he was cut

261
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: by the Bears. There were rumors of his demise earlier

262
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 1: this offseason. I thought that maybe he had done enough

263
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: the cadem carry injury, I thought, and may have solidified

264
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: his roster spot. Not to be talking about life moving fast, though, Man,

265
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: this is at this time last year, Jeremy Lankford was

266
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: the Bears starting running back with a promising future, except

267
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: for Mike Clay, who thought he was trash. But it

268
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: turns out Mike Clay was right. It turns out Mike

269
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: Clay was was right on point. Jeremy Langford is without

270
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 1: a team the last time I checked. I don't know.

271
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: I mean, life does move fast for Jeremy Lankford. So

272
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: who does Maybe the back on the runs NFL not

273
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: for long, I know, but it's it's it's it's a

274
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: running back position. It is absolute craziness, though, that Jeremy

275
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 1: Lankford goes from starting running back again, a young, promising

276
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: running back with a starting gig, to completely out of

277
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: the NFL in a calendar year. That is insane. All right,

278
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: what are you guys making the news? In particular, I'd

279
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: love to focus on Tark Colin because he's really the

280
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: reason why Jeremy Lankford became kind of obsolete there. Uh,

281
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: and Alex will start with you. I think this excuse

282
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 1: me makes put start Colling on the radar like he

283
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: could certainly be a sneaky waiver wire adds stash candidate

284
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: before week one until we get a clear sense of

285
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: his role with the dearth of patch pass catchers and

286
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: that bears offense like Cohen could see some third down work.

287
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: We've already talked about. We've spoke at nauseum on this podcast,

288
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: especially you James about Jordan Howard's deficiencies last year in

289
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: the passing game. Although that eye surgery, but it's certainly

290
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: I think it clears up some of the question marks

291
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: in this backfield. They like Cohen, they this GM coaching

292
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: tree invested in him and he's probably the backup now.

293
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: All right, So what about for Jordan Howard though, I

294
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: mean obviously not not a lot of competition there, uh

295
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: in terms of you know, carries in the backfield, but uh, franchise,

296
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: what do you make of the news there? I think

297
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: we also couldeem Carry was placed on injured reserve, I

298
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: believe with a wrist surjury. So in the last week

299
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: they lost Codem Carrey and uh, Jeremy way Ford. I

300
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: think Benny Cunningham is like the number three on the

301
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 1: depth chart, that's right. But in terms of Jordan Howard,

302
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: like maybe he comes off the field on third downs

303
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 1: now and they just plug to reohen In. I don't

304
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: know if they've used Cohen like split out as a

305
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: wide receiver at all yet. We can look that up

306
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: on next Gen stats. But um, I don't know about

307
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard in the first round anymore. Man, If you don't,

308
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: I'm off. If he's not gonna be a three down back,

309
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: I mean, he'll probably still get all the goal line work,

310
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: but if his snaps come down, that's that's concerning. This

311
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: is a little bit of a I don't know how

312
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: do I put this. It's it fits the narrative, but

313
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: you know, do with this as you will. So Jordan

314
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: Howard didn't play a ton of snaps in the preseason,

315
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: but you know in that preseason Week three, he got

316
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: twelve carries on the ground for forty five yards, but

317
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: he saw no targets in the passing game. Yeah, I

318
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: think it's a sign of what to expect. And again,

319
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: small sample size. Yeah, I'm saying it's a small sample size,

320
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: but it's something at least to note and Cohen coming

321
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: in on third downs. He's it's a change of pace

322
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: that will keep defense is on their toes a little bit.

323
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: You know. I agree. Instead of having that bigger Jordan

324
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: Howard back there, now they have this little guy running

325
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: around much quicker change of pace. So I don't disagree.

326
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: I don't disagree at all. All Right, Pittsburgh trade Sammy

327
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: Coats and a seventh rounder to Cleveland for their sixth

328
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: round pick. Justin Hunter is the backup deep threat wide

329
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: receiver in Pittsburgh will start with Sammy Coats. Any value there,

330
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: Matt Harmony, I mean, look the reason I bring it up. Look,

331
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: he's a big body, deep deep threat guy on a

332
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: team bereft of a lot of playmakers. Corey Coleman is there. Uh,

333
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: Kenny Britt is there. I guess if you are of

334
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: that ilk, But I mean he's there, He's there. I'm

335
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: just saying, I'm just saying, Look, Sammy Coats, big body

336
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 1: wide receiver. I mean, he's got some issues with his hands,

337
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: but he's just got some issues being a good player. Man.

338
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: He's not He's not a he's not a good He's

339
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: not a good wide receiver, and I don't really want

340
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: to get too far down the Browns pecking order trying

341
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: to think that there's gonna be anything relevant there. I mean,

342
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: I think that people have gotten gotten themselves really excited

343
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: about Kenny Bridett times, and I think that he's definitely

344
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: an undervalued draft asset, But like, again, how much value

345
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: is really going to be there in the Browns passing game.

346
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: I'm excited about the Shaun Kaiser, but he's also a

347
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 1: running quarterback that that's going to take off at times.

348
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 1: Like I just don't think we can kid ourselves and

349
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: thinking that, like we're gonna get too far down the

350
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: pecking order and there's gonna be a lot of relevance

351
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 1: with running. But here's the thing. Running quarterbacks with uh

352
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: deep threat wide receivers, they go well together. Especially a

353
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: big guy like Sanley Coats. He's gonna be if if

354
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: Kaiser is looking downfield, he's gonna see Sammy because that's

355
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: a big body down there. That's if Samy Coats is

356
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: on the field. But BRIT's a big body and a

357
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: good deep threat, and Coleman is a good deep throught.

358
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: He's not as big of a body though, so I

359
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: think both of those guys will be on the field

360
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: much more, and we'll probably be more intended targets, at

361
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: least more often than Sammy Coats. Coleman ran the most

362
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: nine routes of any receiver I charged for reception perceptions,

363
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: So I think I think i'd like to see that

364
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: actually come down a little bit and have a used

365
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 1: in space more. That's a little too aggressive, it was crazy,

366
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: but anyways, Uh, I'll take the under on thirty catches

367
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: for Sammy Coates. I'll take the under on twenty five.

368
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: Take keep going down. Uh. Philip Dorset traded to New

369
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: England from Indianapolis. Jacoby Brissett now a cult the backup

370
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: quarterback there in Indianapolis. Can Dorset do anything in New England?

371
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: I'll pass. Yeah, I mean maybe he'll be their punt returner.

372
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 1: New England is known for taking these guys from other

373
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 1: teams and making them into something lost. Julian Edelman, you've

374
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: already saw that they might be limiting Danny Amondola's snaps.

375
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't know. I'm not I'm not

376
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: going out to get Philip Dorset on the waiver wire.

377
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: To me, it's just funny because both of their last

378
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 1: names ended set. That's how you joke about that. Both

379
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: teams are set now, I mean both had a guy

380
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: names set, and that's perfect. Decided to change the first

381
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: few jersey letters and probably the All right, let me

382
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: ask you this about Jacob Brissette. Um. Obviously, he did

383
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: not beat out Tolzine in Week one, but I would

384
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: think that he's got enough potential to to potentially pass

385
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: Tolzine at some point this season, barring Andrew Luck coming back.

386
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't have that much hell for

387
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: for Luck coming back in the first month. That's just me,

388
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: that's just I think that's fair. This move kind of

389
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 1: signals that the Colts aren't either, right, that's a great point.

390
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 1: You need someone behind Tolzine. If Tolzine completely fails, at

391
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,239
Speaker 1: least they have a guy Brissette who's played. You know,

392
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 1: he started an NFL game or two last year. He's

393
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: more of a playmaker. He had a really yeah yeah,

394
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: and he had a really good Week four preseason game.

395
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: I think the Patriots were showcasing him. I think he

396
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: had four touchdown. I think he had five five touchdowns,

397
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 1: which was like it was something like the best preseason

398
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: performance or something. Yeah, I was gonna say, I think

399
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 1: the Colts in their press release even said like coming

400
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 1: off perhaps the best preseason quarterback performance in NFL history. Yeah,

401
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 1: but I mean it was deef Is in week calm down,

402
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,239
Speaker 1: but the cold are the Patriots are showcasing him. Now

403
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: the Colts have a guy with something potential here, all right,

404
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,199
Speaker 1: So let's say he does win that starting gig. Does

405
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: it mean? I would imagine it means better things for

406
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: the Colts offense. Would that make you feel better about

407
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: a t Y Hilt and make you feel better about

408
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: the Dante Montcrief better than the zine? I think? Yeah,

409
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: I think anything is better than tol Yeah, there he goes.

410
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: I mean, so what that is such a small sample size,

411
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: So he's got to learn the offense first, and he

412
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 1: was he will see what happens shaky as a starter.

413
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: I was gonna I was gonna say he got that win.

414
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: But didn't he The only point that he scored wasn't

415
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 1: on like a long touchdown run on a broken play

416
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 1: against the Texans. Yeah, and that was the game where

417
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: Blunt had like some bizarre touchdowns and you get a

418
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: huge amount of carry. They were clearly trying to run

419
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 1: the ball to hot you know, not Hyde Prisette, but

420
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 1: make him more of like an ancillary piece of the offense.

421
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 1: That's right. And uh New England quarterbacks after they'd leave

422
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: New England, Dude, that's so great. But I don't think

423
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 1: things aren't going well for Ryan mollot. Ryan. I mean,

424
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: technically we're always talking about the Patriots trading their backups

425
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: for a first round pick, and technically Dorset was a

426
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: first round pick. So there you go. Keep that trend.

427
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: Nailed it. Brandon Cooks too, They're just like loading up

428
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: on these I was like wide receivers. I was obviously

429
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: like very busy this weekend, but I was disappointed that

430
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: I did not get a chance to like create some

431
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: kind of troll tweet about like, well, obviously they were

432
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: very disappointed, and what they've seen from Brandon Cooks, they

433
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: already feel that you need to go ahead and get

434
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: a small come at you. I don't know what's more vicious,

435
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 1: uh Patriots Twitter or Brandon Cooks Twitter, because those guys

436
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,199
Speaker 1: are very passionate about Brandon cook So I was like,

437
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 1: maybe I should just focus on interesting in my real

438
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 1: life Washington let the kill of running back Matt Jones,

439
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 1: who was then a claimed off waivers by the aforementioned

440
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. It's a murky backfield depth behind Frank Gore.

441
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: Quite honestly, it's Matt Jones, it's Marlon at it's Robert

442
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: Turbin probably in reverse ward. Actually, if we're looking at depth,

443
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 1: probably Robert Turbin is the I would agree, is probably

444
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: the handcuff. Marlon Mack is there as well, and then

445
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: Matt Jones is there for depth. But regardless, what do

446
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: we make of the Matt Jones going to Indianapolis News

447
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: Alex killhar not much. I mean, this is a guy

448
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,159
Speaker 1: that had a lot of ball security problems. I think

449
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: this is just that front office taking a shot on

450
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,959
Speaker 1: a guy who has flashed some talent but has some

451
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: issues he needs to work out in his game. And

452
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: it's simply a depth add behind them that I'm sure

453
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 1: they would trust Turban and Mac, like you said, over

454
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: a guy they just signed up the street with a

455
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: case of fumble itis. Well, I don't know if this

456
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: is hot take, but it will not surprise me if

457
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 1: Matt Jones has like fantasy relevance late in the year. Yeah,

458
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 1: I don't just wouldn't wouldn't surprise me because I think

459
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: he is down. Yeah, Frank Gore breaks down, you know,

460
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 1: Robert Turbin, like they they've really trying to pump up

461
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: Robert Turbin, but like it's er, it's Robert. I do

462
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: think if Frank Gore breaks down, is just going to

463
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,239
Speaker 1: be a like a three headed committee back there. So

464
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: I guess I guess the point that the and I

465
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: I highlight this is because I think a lot of

466
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: folks might have been like, Okay, I need to find

467
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: a Frank Gore handcuff. I feel like that's the handcuff

468
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,360
Speaker 1: most people are looking for because they figured, thirty four

469
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: years old, he's seen a lot of carries. Blah blah

470
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,239
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Okay. I think the addition, though, of

471
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: Matt Jones makes it impossible to draft any of them

472
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: come draft day. Now, we'll figure this out if if

473
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,120
Speaker 1: the injury happens and then you know, the waiver wire

474
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: process goes through. But if we're talking about upcoming drafts,

475
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 1: the addition of Matt Jones in that backfield, to me anyways,

476
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 1: makes all three of those guys undraftable because again it's

477
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: just too murky and they're potentially on a really bad team.

478
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,640
Speaker 1: If Andrew there is that is white for a while.

479
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: Great point, the last thing you want as a committee

480
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 1: back on a struggling offense. I wouldn't be draft that.

481
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been drafting anyone before this. But it's

482
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: like nobody has slayed more handcuffs too than Frank gore By.

483
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: Like it's been. It's like six years ago we were

484
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 1: talking about, Hey, was that the career hunts the hunter guy,

485
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 1: that kind of hunter. You could maybe take that job

486
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 1: and Nope, Nope, nope, just stiff arming fools everywhere. I

487
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: love it. Uh. Seattle trade Germaine curse in a conditional

488
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: second rounder to the Jets for Sheldon Richardson, a former

489
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: NFL Defensive Player of the Year, Rookie Player of the Year.

490
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 1: Excuse me? In a Pro Bowl defensive tackle in curse?

491
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: Is he worth a flyer? There? In New York? Matt

492
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: Harmon hashtag never Jets. It's gonna be a no for

493
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,719
Speaker 1: me dog anybody nothing. He's a better option than like

494
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: our Darius Stewart and Robbie Anderson. Okay, so can I,

495
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: And I think he knocks them both down a peg.

496
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: He's a better wide receiver. I would say he struggled

497
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: mightily even in Seattle. Like I think he caught like

498
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: one of like twelve red zone targets last year, and

499
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: he never had a great catch. Right, He's not like,

500
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 1: he's not like A. He's not a special athlete. He's

501
00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: he's We're all special. Okay, debate A does this hurt

502
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 1: Robbie better than all of us were sitting here in

503
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: the podcast. That's That's what I'm saying. I could have

504
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: made it if it wasn't from my injury troubles, right,

505
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 1: for my knee troubles. Uh No, but no, I mean,

506
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: really though, does it hurt the I mean a lot

507
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: of folks were taking the Robby Anderson dart throw super

508
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: late in drafts. Does this, I guess hurt that. I mean,

509
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: if you want to you know, a dart throw being

510
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 1: you know whatever. I think. So, I think so I

511
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: think that for that he'll get out there and he'll

512
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: get targets, and I just you know, uh, actually I

513
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: think it was. Adam Harstad just recently rebumped this tweet

514
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 1: of his from two thousand thirteen. Uh, and it was.

515
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,959
Speaker 1: It is essentially him saying Adam Hartsett by the way,

516
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 1: right for football guys, that he's really good follow Um. Yeah,

517
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: he said back in two thousand thirteen. If you're logic

518
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: for picking a wide receiver late in the draft is well,

519
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: somebody has to catch the ball. I just want to

520
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 1: remind you that it's I think it's December two thirteen

521
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 1: right now, and no Jets wide receiver has stre more

522
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 1: than there and fifty yards, so and we're kind of

523
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: here in the same spot. So I don't know that

524
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,199
Speaker 1: the interest that somebody has to catch the ball. We

525
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: all say it. I've said it, I know everybody has

526
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: said it. Sure, sometimes somebody doesn't have to catch This year,

527
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: Jeremy Curley led I I don't remember what his yardage were,

528
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: but it was of the team targets and didn't cross

529
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: seven hundred receiving yards. So that logic is is faulty

530
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: on certain teams. Fair enough. Um, what about for the

531
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: Seattle defense as a fantasy unit, Man, they get a

532
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: little nastier, especially up front. I think Richardson fills that

533
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 1: void left behind by Brendan Mebaying a year ago. You know, Again,

534
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: when you start thinking about great defenses, they get pressure

535
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: up the middle, and that is what Sheldon Richardson does.

536
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 1: He is an elite run stopper as well. Um does this,

537
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 1: I guess you know, solidify Seattle as one of the

538
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 1: three best fantasy defenses in your mind. I think they

539
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,199
Speaker 1: will be extremely good and we'll get a great test

540
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: in Week one to see how worried we should be

541
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 1: about starting fantasy players against Seattle because they travel on

542
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 1: the road to Green Bay, so and that Green Bay

543
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 1: offense is loaded. It's one of the best in the league.

544
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: So if they go into lambeau Field and hold that

545
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 1: Packers offense to like twenty four points or whatever, that's

546
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 1: gonna be huge red flag. Like any time a team,

547
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: especially in Seattle, it's going to be a case where,

548
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: like even good fantasy players, you might want to be

549
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 1: worried about starting against that defense. So we'll get a

550
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: good look. But that team, that team is one of

551
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: the best front sevens in football, and that could terrorize

552
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: bad offensive lines are bad quarterbacks. After they play the Packers,

553
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: they play the forty, they're at home versus forty Niners.

554
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 1: They're on the road to Tennessee, there at home versus

555
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: the Colts and they go on the road to l A.

556
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: So like, it sucks. It sucks drafting a defense week

557
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,439
Speaker 1: one and then not wanting to play them, which is

558
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: how I would feel about drafting Sea. I don't like,

559
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to play them in week one going into Lambeau.

560
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: But then after I do it, Well, it's a pretty

561
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: good schedule. It's not not too shabby. Um, you know,

562
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: we see defenses kind of go all over the place

563
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: in terms of you know, more common draft versus uh,

564
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,919
Speaker 1: industry drafts. I know in industry jafs, it's it's a

565
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: game of chicken, who who can last the longest? Um,

566
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: you know, without going with defense there, but uh, to

567
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: a more casual player playing in a more casual league,

568
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: when would you feel comfortable, uh suggesting taking a defense

569
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,160
Speaker 1: like Seattle? I think people usually reach in more casual leagues.

570
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: Maybe tenth round, Like, if you don't get him in

571
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: the tenth round, someone else might grab him, so do you?

572
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: So do you think a tenth round grade for the

573
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 1: Seattle defense is is good? Not in elite I don't

574
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: play like that. But if you're in a casual league

575
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,199
Speaker 1: and you want to lock up a defense that you

576
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: can start every week without having to think about it. Yes, okay,

577
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 1: there you go. Uh, fantasy fantasy defenses. Would you rather

578
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: have Seattle or Denver? Seattle Seattle? Denver plays in a

579
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: more loaded division, and they did lose WEIGHTE Phillips too,

580
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: And I think that defense is still gonna be very good.

581
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: But you can't just like a race that the loss

582
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: of him, He's been an amazing fantasy defensive coordinator, you

583
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 1: lose the defensive coordinator. T J. Ward obviously goes to

584
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay as well. Marcus Ware retires. The Marcus Ware retires,

585
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: I think there's a little bit of turnover there. To

586
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 1: leave might not be the same guy, I mean older

587
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: and plus to leave as a guy that we're talking about.

588
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he's again the last few years, last couple

589
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: of years has been nice. But I mean before that

590
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: in extensive injury history. So no, I think you're right.

591
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: All right, So there you go. Uh, the Steelers released

592
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald Toussatt but then resigned him to the practice squad.

593
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 1: Does it make James Conner the clear cut next in

594
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 1: line next to Levian Bill? I think it definitely does.

595
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: We saw fitz Toussant getting some work in the preseason

596
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 1: ahead of James Conner and James Connor was kind of

597
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: coming off an injury, but he showed while I think

598
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: he had ninety yards in that one game. He did,

599
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: and I think they want him to be the future

600
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 1: of that backfield. They might you know, might not have

601
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: left Bell next year if these contract talks don't work

602
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 1: out or whatever the case may be. So I think

603
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: they want to kind of groom Connor as the next

604
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 1: in line there as as that leader that backfield if

605
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: they lose Levet Bell. The Niners released all of the

606
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: running backs. Tim Hytower gone, oh yeah, he's the other

607
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 1: one on my s FB team. Joe Williams was surprisingly

608
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: placed on season ending i R with an ankle injury,

609
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 1: maybe by Carlos Hide, the starter. Matt Brita, the option

610
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: running back out of Georgia's Southern He is the backup there. Now.

611
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 1: The rookie looked good. He's he's looked fantastic. Then the

612
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: team and went and picked up Jeremy McNichols on their

613
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: practice squad on their practice squads this after the fifth

614
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: round rookie out of Boise State was released. By the

615
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Bucks. All right, so what do we make

616
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: of this backfield? Matt Harm I mean, it's really locks

617
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 1: in Carlos Hide, who wasn't it you know a couple

618
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: of months ago was pretty much like on a hard

619
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: passed list for me, all of the buzz was negative.

620
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: But he's looked good in the preseason. This is a

621
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,479
Speaker 1: good system for running backs, and it appears that they

622
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 1: are in his corner. Um. I think it obviously makes

623
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: Matt Breeder right now the favorite to be the number

624
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: two running back. I don't know how much I really

625
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,719
Speaker 1: care about the number two running back on the San

626
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: Francisco for nine, but hid it is was the player

627
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: prone to you know, miss time, So that is he's

628
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: somebody who should at least be on our radar. But yeah,

629
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: it locks in Carlos hied to me. Um and also

630
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: just a pretty painful lesson for McNichols. I mean, who

631
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: people were expecting to like push for the starting job

632
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: didn't even make the ross. He was super productive in

633
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: in college. Yeah, and yeah, super athletic and and ibane.

634
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 1: If you watch Hard Knocks, you even saw some of

635
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: that crop up there. Like he was pretty clearly behind

636
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 1: the eight ball from from the Jump, and I mean

637
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 1: they kept guys like Peyton Barber. I think I think

638
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: the problem with Jeremy McNichols was he just couldn't get

639
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 1: out of his own head. I mean, they were asking

640
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 1: him to play special teams and it just I don't

641
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: think it worked out. He didn't have to play special

642
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: teams in college because he was a star there, and

643
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 1: he was struggling to pick that up. And I think

644
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: the hesitation, I think it really showed as as you

645
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 1: mentioned on Hard Knocks. I mean, it just seemed like

646
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 1: he was thinking too much out there and not really playing.

647
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: Every time you saw him, because there's a one there's

648
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: one scene. There's one scene of him in practice where

649
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: you know, he's really kind of swimming. They're they're getting

650
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 1: on his back, and then there's another scene a thing

651
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: with him to Shun Jackson and Jamis Winson and like

652
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: hotel going through that was that it's a great scene that. Yeah,

653
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: it's been a good season of Hard Knocks, but just

654
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: every time I felt like I saw McNichols, he just

655
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 1: had this like whoa look on his face, like like

656
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: you said that this was all too big for Minut's. Yeah,

657
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: it's it's just a reminder that when you go on

658
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: the third day of the NFL Draft, they're gonna expect

659
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 1: you to come in and contribute on special teams. You're

660
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: not just gonna walk right into, you know, a running

661
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 1: back job, and it's it's a tough and it's a

662
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: tough gig. Also, quick aside with the Day three running backs,

663
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 1: like every year Draft Twitter, Fantasy Twitter, their favorite players

664
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: get drafted on Day three and the proclamation is made

665
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: that they're going to steal the starting job from whoever whomever.

666
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: Been it fault of this, We've all done it, We've

667
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: all but like it's the lesson to learn. Like they're

668
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,719
Speaker 1: drafted on Day three for a week a reason. Joe Williams,

669
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 1: Jeremy McNichols, like Jamal Williams, all these guys are backups,

670
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: are on different teams now, they're not coming in and

671
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 1: stealing starting jobs from guys that have done it before.

672
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: Although I think I think the McNichols thing was justified

673
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: because again, great athlete. I mean, it's Jock Quiz Rodgers, right,

674
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it's okay, you're thinking this guy's got an

675
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: opportunity anyways, But regardless, it's Quiz Rodgers now the starter

676
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: for the first three games, Peyton Barber now the backup.

677
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: Charles Simms is expected to be the past catching back,

678
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: deep sleeper deep sleep. Really started to like Doug Martin.

679
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,959
Speaker 1: Though I was just gonna say, like this move too.

680
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: I really like the whole way, the whole backfield is

681
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: shaking up because you've got ja Quiz Rodgers, who will

682
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: get to waiver wire ads. He's available in a ton

683
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,479
Speaker 1: of leagues still and could be a great early season

684
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: flex starter because like he got a ton of volume

685
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 1: when he was their guy for like three games last year.

686
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: That's going to be the case for these first three

687
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,719
Speaker 1: weeks again. And then, like you said, Doug Martin, love

688
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: him if you're still if you're still drafting, he's a

689
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: great value in those middle round I mean, the Rodgers

690
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: versus McNichols thing is just a pretty much the encapsulation

691
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: of what you're talking about, Like, just because you like

692
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: a player's YouTube clips from their college games because not

693
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 1: mean that an NFL coach is going to trust him.

694
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: And it clearly, clearly, clearly shows that those guys in

695
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay just trust and love uh love quick to

696
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 1: Quiz Rodgers. But I do think this is going to

697
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: be Martin's job and he gets back great this song,

698
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: real quick, real quick on Rodgers to those three weeks.

699
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 1: He was the featured back for Tampa Bay. Last year,

700
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 1: he finished as the RB fourteen, RB ten, and RB

701
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: interest in standard leagues insane volume because he had he

702
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: had he had massive there behind But like that could

703
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: that could very well be the case here and even

704
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: if he was finished that high. But if he finishes

705
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: as a top twenty running back, that's a great flex starter.

706
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: In the first two words, yeah, oh, no doubt about it. Yeah.

707
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 1: I mean, although I would caution. I think the coaching

708
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: staff has indicated that they do want to mix up

709
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: their running back usage. I think they admitted that it

710
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: was probably a mistake to give Quiz running that exactly,

711
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: which was a little I think he had something like

712
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: close to ninety touches in those three I counted at

713
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 1: one point last year. Many he's like a tiny guy.

714
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 1: I think he had like twenty in the first half

715
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,839
Speaker 1: against that Carolina game. That game was outrageous. Yeah, they're

716
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: all right, we should keep moving. We got to get

717
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 1: out of here. Stupid moving Cardinals released Chris Johnson this

718
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,280
Speaker 1: after Pruce Arians said he was excited to use Chris

719
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: Johnson in two backsets this season with Dave be that excited.

720
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: Kerwin Williams is now the backup, pours him out for

721
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,840
Speaker 1: c J. Two K by the way, great career and

722
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: awesome fantasy career to Ferry underrated man like he got

723
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 1: a bad stigma after that tooth after his two K year.

724
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: But he still would go out and put up like

725
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: fourteen under cards and six uchdowns every year, I know,

726
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: and everyone's just like lock it in, and everyone was disappointed.

727
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 1: It was because you know what it was. It was

728
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 1: a heart attack watching him ploy. Yes, if you had

729
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: to watch him play for four quarters, it was heart

730
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,439
Speaker 1: attack city because it would be God one yard carry

731
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 1: exactly talk about and then six touchdown You're like exactly,

732
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,919
Speaker 1: all right, Uh, good time to remind folks every throw,

733
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: every catch, every two minute, drill, every fourth and inches.

741
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: trial today at NFL dot Com Slash game Pass. Let's talk.

742
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 1: We gotta do waiver adds real quick. Yes, we should

743
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: leave time for year league submissions and depths, but I

744
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 1: just posted an article today nine fantasy waiver wire gems

745
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: to add four week one. These are all higher level guys.

746
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,240
Speaker 1: Darren McFadden is still available in a bunch of leagues.

747
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: We don't know what's happening with the Zeke suspension yet

748
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,280
Speaker 1: worth the cursory look. Wendel Smallwood already said to Quiz Rodgers,

749
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer, if you have a quarterback, is not in

750
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: a great matchup. Carson Palmer plays the lines in week one.

751
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 1: Good ad available in a ton of leagues. And uh,

752
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 1: Tyroll Williams actually is a floating around at least in

753
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 1: a lot of NFL dot Com leagues. People. If you

754
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: drafted earlier, you were in a casual league, he might

755
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 1: not have been ranked that highly. Also worth a look,

756
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: But franch do you have anybody you want to highlight

757
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: from your streaming article. It's also gonna come out today. Yes, sir,

758
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with a tight end Evan Ingraham on

759
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 1: the New York Giants. He's only eight percent owned the jet.

760
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: The Giants jettison will tie in the last couple of days,

761
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: kind of signaling they want Evan Ingram to be that

762
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 1: past catching back. Yes, he's a rookie tight end. We

763
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 1: don't know what O b J status is for week one.

764
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: He might not. He might not play well. By the way,

765
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: keep an eye on that. Speaking of Sterling Shepherd owned

766
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: unowned in a lot of leagues to good waiver pick

767
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: up Odell Beckham Jr. Did not practice Monday. There you go,

768
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: There you go. Keep an eye on that situation. Don't

769
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: they play the late game Sunday too, They play Sunday night,

770
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: So that's gonna be that's gonna be tilt City. You

771
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: should try and pick him up early, to pick up

772
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: an option early. Just let's wait till thirty. When we

773
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,879
Speaker 1: get back on Thursday, I'm sure we'll dive into Odell. Yeah.

774
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,399
Speaker 1: By sorry, franch keep going. So Yeah. Evan Ingram six

775
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 1: receptions on nine targets for seventy five yards. In the preseason,

776
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 1: he worked mainly with his first team offense. He showed well,

777
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 1: he's got insane metrics. He ran a huge four four

778
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: to forty. He's six ft three, two thirty five. I

779
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 1: think he's gonna be a big part of that passing game. Uh,

780
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 1: down the seam inside in the slot. Uh, you know,

781
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,359
Speaker 1: alongside Sterling Shepherd, but with Beckham out like he could

782
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,799
Speaker 1: see more targets. The run game is just dismal in

783
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 1: New York. So I think uh Ingram is in line

784
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: for a good at least Week one against Dallas. Dallas

785
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: actually allowed a hundred nineteen receptions and over eleven hundred

786
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 1: receiving yards at tight ends last year, both highest marks

787
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Go get it. So Evan Ingram has

788
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 1: only owned an eight percent of NFL dot com leagues. Right, nice,

789
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 1: all right, man, Harmon, you got anything? Yeah, I would

790
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 1: keep an eye on Marcus Goodwin from the forty Niners. Yeah, look, guy,

791
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: track star are you looking at I'm just I need

792
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: to tell you his forty times that can run. I

793
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 1: would tell you, I would. I would think if you

794
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,879
Speaker 1: if you need like a talk talk talking about deep

795
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,320
Speaker 1: flyers here. I think that if you take a flyer

796
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: on him, he obviously has a high weekly ceiling going

797
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 1: straight into the danger zone for this one. He roasted

798
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 1: a defensive back in the preseason there, and they're playing

799
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: in Carolina in Week one. I think Carolina is probably

800
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: gonna win that game San Francisco, like they will be

801
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: most of the time, it will be trailing. I'm excited

802
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 1: about Pierre Garson of course for that game in the

803
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: entire season, but I would I would think about if

804
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: you need a flyer Marcus Goodwin, because the Panthers are

805
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: They're confident in their secondary, and I'm pretty confident a

806
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,879
Speaker 1: player like James Bradberry, who I think is a really

807
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: good up and coming corner he mostly stays on the

808
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: left side of the field. So if good One can

809
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: run any routes against Darryl Whorley or one of their

810
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 1: slot cornerbacks, uh that I think he could bust off

811
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 1: a big play. All right, let me get into some

812
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 1: listener league announcements here, because I got a lot of

813

840
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 1: We will welcome in a fellow by the name of

841
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 1: Zach Battles. This is a guy that has been oh man,

Speaker 1: he is active on my notifications. He's active in your

843
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,440

844
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:42,280
Speaker 1: welcome in Zach Battles. He wrote us a great um

845
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: podcast review as well. All right, so theoretically the final

846
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 1: spot here goes out too. Richard Campa. Richard Campa if

847
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: the name, If the name sounds familiar, it's because remember

848
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: earlier this process, we let in Richard Campa's wife into

849
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: the league, where at first I thought it was gonna

850
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: be Richard Campa, and then Adam Reik said, no, no no, no,

851
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: it's his wife that's in the league. But I had

852
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 1: to circle back and get Richard Campa back into the

853
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:21,400
Speaker 1: league because what is more dangerous than a husband and

854
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 1: wife going at it in fantasy football. You guys could

855
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 1: sabotage this marriage absolutely, absolutely, and we should have like

856
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 1: a weekly feature on this place for the website. We

857
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 1: also like we interview both of them, like, so, what

858
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 1: fights have you been in this weekend? To Richard and

859
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 1: his wife, paste, don't let this come between you. Your

860
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: love can overcome dangerous only. I like the fact you

861
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: let him hang for like a few weeks total. Probably

862
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 1: had several conversations, absolutely not how upset they were that

863
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 1: he wasn't in the league she made. Probably Well, here's

864
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:55,120
Speaker 1: the thing. I'm thinking that maybe she took all of

865
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 1: his strategies in preparation for this upcoming draft, like a

866
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: can you can you fill me in on what who

867
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: should I draft? What do you think together? You know

868
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 1: what I mean? No, right, exactly. See, that's the thing

869
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 1: that's gonna be fun. I think. I think the wife

870
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,839
Speaker 1: has probably stolen all of his draft strategies and knows

871
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,399
Speaker 1: exactly what he's gonna do. And in the sixteen team league, Oh,

872
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 1: I do like it all right, So there you go.

873
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,799
Speaker 1: Those are your final four for anyone else who did

874
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: not make a listener league. Uh listen, so many great submissions, man,

875
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 1: and I know I speak for all the guys here,

876
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 1: but so many great submissions. It was really difficult going

877
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,080
Speaker 1: through and trying to pick those final um spots, so

878
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: it was really tough. We appreciate all the love that

879
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,799
Speaker 1: we got as well. Yeah, man, it was. It's it's

880
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,759

881
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 1: you to all the listeners out there. Um, if we

882
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 1: didn't get you in a league this year, again, we're

883
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,320

951
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,760

955
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,040

956
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 1: It is? Every episode that show is like a sniper

957
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 1: rifle to the fields. Yeah, dude, it's insane. Every I'm like,

958
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:50,000

00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,239
Speaker 1: Charlie yesterday and I was like sipping coffee and I'm like,

960
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 1: don't do it. Do it. You can make it through

961
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:59,399
Speaker 1: this episode. Fun fact they shot episodes of that uh

962
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:04,240
Speaker 1: show in the apartment building I live in, to Toby's apartment.

963
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,200

Speaker 1: in orange my adjacent apartment building, which is like laid out,

965
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 1: same colors and everything shot there, So that's cool. But

966
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 1: it's it's gone over there and there's like a padlock

967
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:18,800
Speaker 1: on the handle, so I think they might be shooting

968
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: more episodes. It's a really good show. And as far

969
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,400
Speaker 1: as network television shows go, you know, we're in this

970
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:26,279

Speaker 1: As far as network shows go, this is really good,

972
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:30,239

973
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 1: really good in it. Yeah, But it's also if if

974
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: you need a recomendation, uh, if you liked the movie

975
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,359
Speaker 1: Crazy Stupid Love. It is written by the same guy

976
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 1: that wrote that and the guys that directed that movie

977
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,440
Speaker 1: directed the pilot, and their executive producers on it. So

978
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 1: it's got a good, good, good crew around it. Franchise

984
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 1: heat battling this gigantic fire for days and days. The

985
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: photos on Twitter are unbelievable as it looks like apocalyptic. Uh.

986
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 1: And last night finally there was a bit of a

987
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 1: rainstorm that was you woke up this morning and the

988
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 1: reports are they've they've kind of turned the corner on

989
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 1: battling this thing. They have at thirty contained. But Daily

990
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 1: DAPs to all the firefires, all the local you know,

991
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,799
Speaker 1: uh crews that have been working to try to get

992
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 1: that fire out. This is also my yearly reminder to

993
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 1: Daily DAP, those folks who work the local news broadcast,

994
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 1: because as much as as much crap as we give

995
00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: local newspeople, which is, you know, obviously a lot of

996
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 1: it's deserved. I used to work in local news, so

997
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 1: I get it. But that being said, when there's something

998
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 1: like this, like a brush fire or something that's hyperlocal

999
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,799
Speaker 1: and and threatening lives. Where do you go. You don't

1000
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,960
Speaker 1: go to CNN. You go to your local news station

1001
00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,800
Speaker 1: and you get that information and they keep you abreast

1002
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,720
Speaker 1: of all the important info that you need and and

1003
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:06,400

1004
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:10,200

1005
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:13,200
Speaker 1: and trying to find these stories and covering these uh

1006
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 1: these kind of you know, natural disasters that happen out there.

1007
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:18,959
Speaker 1: So again, uh daily DAPs to those local news folks,

1008
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 1: which I forgot, but you're right. I mean, it's my

1009
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 1: yearly reminder to to do that. Some of the shots

1010
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: of these local people standing like thirty feet from this

00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 1: massive blaze and it's already a hundred degrees out there,

1012
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:33,319
Speaker 1: just sweating, sweating on camera profusely. Wow, I feel so bad.

1013
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:35,240
Speaker 1: Garden hose in hand. Yeah, you know what I mean?

1014
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,479
Speaker 1: Insane real quick before jimp to boy, young boy, I'd

1015
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,840
Speaker 1: be remissed speaking of people getting out and fighting stuff

1016
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 1: if we didn't give a shout out to J. J.

1017
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 1: Watt again, love him or hate him, because he's kind

1018
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:48,840
Speaker 1: of nearly twenty million dollars. Now he's raised for Houston

1019
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 1: through that, so amazing. If you can find him on

1020
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 1: Twitter if you want to help contribute. But like I,

1021
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 1: that's incredible. Howletts and Paletts full of relief aide, Uh,

1022
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 1: those big rigs be throughout there. All that food afort

1023
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,360
Speaker 1: Actually the pictures too, right um, if I'm not mistaken,

1024
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:07,360
Speaker 1: all the pictures that he showed, all the food and

1025
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 1: the supplies and all that stuff that he was those

1026
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:11,920
Speaker 1: were all donations. He hasn't touched the money yet. He

1027
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:13,640
Speaker 1: hasn't touched the money and I think he I think

1028
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,160
Speaker 1: he just had tweeted and it's like eighteen point five

1029
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: or eighteen point seven million, so I would venture I

1030
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,960
Speaker 1: guess he'll hit which is just insane, goes up by

1031
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 1: a couple of million every day, pretty huge. He's awesome. Alright, Harmon.

1032
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:27,920
Speaker 1: I think I'm just gonna keep it simple and I'm

1033
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 1: definitely gonna adapt my my friend Buster and his his

1034
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,600
Speaker 1: wife Molly, was a great wedding this weekend. And as

1035
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 1: you guys know, if you listen to this podcast, I

1036
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 1: have maybe what I would call, like many of my relationships,

1037
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:43,839
Speaker 1: a complicated relationship with love and feelings in general, but

1038
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 1: love and feel love and feelings general. But I think

1039
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,919
Speaker 1: that it was really cool to see um Like Buster

1040
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: was definitely like the last person you would ever expect

1041
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:57,160
Speaker 1: of our friend group to to get married to me

1042
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 1: definitely like the the class clown, like for the party

1043
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,800
Speaker 1: guy in college, and uh seeing him get married this

1044
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 1: weekend and just how like I definitely was joking all weekend,

1045
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:08,839
Speaker 1: like we should have had like a bet sheet of

1046
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 1: like what you know, big different outcomes of the wedding,

1047
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,120
Speaker 1: and like I would have taken the over on two

1048
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 1: and a half bits from him during the ceremony, not

1049
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 1: a thing. He was very serious about the whole thing,

1050
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 1: No bits, and uh, yeah, it was just it was

1051
00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:23,840
Speaker 1: really cool to see. So I'm very very happy for

1052
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 1: for him and for her. It was an awesome wedding

1053
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:29,000
Speaker 1: to be in to be a part of. Uh. And

1054
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:32,359
Speaker 1: so maybe maybe love and feelings aren't a big fat

1055
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:37,799
Speaker 1: lie after all? Good Lord, And weren't we a week?

1056
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: Aren't we just a week removed from you telling the

1057
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:43,319
Speaker 1: world that you're actually in a relationship. Like I said,

1058
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 1: it's a complicated relationship with feelings. And we'll save it
