Speaker 1: Friends Forever Do Do Do Do Do Do Didde Do Dude,
Speaker 1: dud Dude, did it Do yeo is as the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Best Friends Forever here on the Fantasy Sports Ring Network
Speaker 1: alongside Frankie Stanfill. I am Greg what's up here on
Speaker 1: a Thursday getting ready for the wild Card weekend? And
Speaker 1: Greg who have inside injuries on today obviously talk about
Speaker 1: the latest injury news heading into the playoffs. But what's
Speaker 1: going on with Like the way everything works in sports
Speaker 1: media nowadays is trying to decipher like athlete tweets and
Speaker 1: figuring out what well this player un followed this team
Speaker 1: on social media and blah blah blah and Antonio Brown
Speaker 1: is now following the Savrance just go forty Niners, Like,
Speaker 1: at what level do we draw the line? Greig? I
Speaker 1: think you have to realize that athletes loved f with you,
Speaker 1: and not just you. They love to f with their
Speaker 1: audience and all honest day because they know everybody's watching.
Speaker 1: They know what everybody's talking about. And I don't want
Speaker 1: to give them as much credit as you wore. Lay
Speaker 1: On decipher this right like, and Zonio Brown knows exactly
Speaker 1: what he's doing. The second he follows the San Francisco Forts,
Speaker 1: people are gonna notice what he's talking to George kittle
Speaker 1: On on Twitter or Instagram. People are gonna notice. He
Speaker 1: knows that many Machado may have screwed that up when
Speaker 1: he followed the S Network. He's like, oh no, and
Speaker 1: then he unfollowed me S Network, Right like, people realize
Speaker 1: that when the Mavericks or the Clippers rather did their
Speaker 1: whole emoji thing a couple of years back, they knew
Speaker 1: people are watching. What did it mean? Mean nothing? Mean nothing? Ultimately,
Speaker 1: the emoji war did mean something. No, locking DeAndre Jordan
Speaker 1: in a house meant something. That's what meant something. But
Speaker 1: the emoji wordn't mean anything, and you just this uester
Speaker 1: and you could read it Frank doesn't mean anything? Are
Speaker 1: you sure? Are you reading into it enough? Greg? I
Speaker 1: I think so? Here we go. This is tweet from
Speaker 1: Jujuic Smith choost and I see a lot of people
Speaker 1: freaking out about on Twitter quote tweeting it our own
Speaker 1: alex Asano Quoe tweeting and saying the bigger man Jujuice
Speaker 1: Smith Choose. I'm like, all right, well, I don't know
Speaker 1: what any of this means. If you want to call
Speaker 1: in and let us know what it means, A four four,
Speaker 1: A four three sevennine, let us know what you think,
Speaker 1: because I'm pretty sure, Like the water is supposed to
Speaker 1: mean something here the condition all right, here we go.
Speaker 1: The fact of the day. Water is not wet. Water
Speaker 1: is liquid that wets things. What is the condition of
Speaker 1: a liquid sticking to a solid surfaces? Just water wetting
Speaker 1: our skin. We cannot say that water is wet because
Speaker 1: it takes a liquid end a solid to define the
Speaker 1: term wet. Maybe juju was doing online courses and online courses, yeah,
Speaker 1: Jujue might be doing something else after this season, And
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on in this tweet. Let's
Speaker 1: say so Juju went to us A right is not
Speaker 1: He only played three years at USC, so maybe he
Speaker 1: was doing online courses to graduate. He's a philosophy major.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's not philosophy, man, it's it's science science, all right,
Speaker 1: environmental science major, marine biologists. Is that what we're getting
Speaker 1: at here? I'm pretty sure like there's analogies here, like
Speaker 1: water is not wet, water is a liquid at wets thing.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you're going to try to relate that.
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown, I don't know, But I don't know. Maybe
Speaker 1: we should have Alex calling because I saw him quote tweeted,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I don't know how this means anything.
Speaker 1: People are talking about he's a bigger man, he's being mature.
Speaker 1: It's like, why are the analogy here? I don't get it.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? There's nothing to do with anything.
Speaker 1: I also love, by the way, I also love of
Speaker 1: the fact that every Steelers fan out of Simon was
Speaker 1: at the perfect example jumping off the Antonio Brown badwagon.
Speaker 1: He's not that good. He's not you know, then you
Speaker 1: make anybody good. He's a crime. Every babe. We hate him.
Speaker 1: I'm done with him. Did you see the guy on
Speaker 1: Twitter yesterday who like, basically I was trying to prove
Speaker 1: what he said about Antonio Brown, like this is the
Speaker 1: reason why he fell in the draft process is because
Speaker 1: he's a head case. He's tweeting it like ten years
Speaker 1: into Antonio Brown's career, basically trying to say, like this
Speaker 1: is why he slipped to the sixth round. Everybody knew
Speaker 1: he was a head case, Like just like this justifies
Speaker 1: him falling into the sixth round. And also everybody was
Speaker 1: like bashing this guy on Twitter, like fantasy Twitter was
Speaker 1: just destroying this guy. They also read I also read
Speaker 1: the article of from that Antonio Brown was talking about
Speaker 1: his upbringing, right, he mean he had a very very
Speaker 1: tough upbringing in Florida. UM, several siblings, He's got several kids.
Speaker 1: Obviously we've spoken about that, um and blaming that on
Speaker 1: this and I'm like, all right, I understand that if
Speaker 1: it was like his first couple of years in the
Speaker 1: league that he didn't mature yet, it wasn't an adult yet.
Speaker 1: We're past that. I think he's thirty one years old
Speaker 1: one dancing with the stars. Right, this isn't just like
Speaker 1: what was happened yesterday. That's like prerecorded though right way prerecorded.
Speaker 1: That was probably that was like done like last summer
Speaker 1: before Wilson started, done a long time ago. Yeah, what
Speaker 1: was the show he was? He was on like the
Speaker 1: Mass singer right, Yes, it's very so perfect though it
Speaker 1: was it very Is it for so perfect? No, I'm
Speaker 1: saying it's so perfect that like he was on this
Speaker 1: show and it aired while like everything else is going on.
Speaker 1: There you go the hippo whatever it's called. Well, I
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know what he was he was?
Speaker 1: He was he Martino? Was he a hippo? Is? Yeah,
Speaker 1: some kind of hippo something. But the show was the Mass.
Speaker 1: I'm not really sure because I wanted I watched, um
Speaker 1: trying to finish this documentary that got kind of boring
Speaker 1: last night. But here we go. Greg's into documentary. I
Speaker 1: told you if it's Scrutinis your crime show and we
Speaker 1: put s the end being seasoned. Agreed, But it doesn't matter, right, Um,
Speaker 1: so I was watching before we like watch an episode. Um,
Speaker 1: let's say something else. I watched in a second, but
Speaker 1: I put on the map, I put on the masks
Speaker 1: there because I had all the type was all right,
Speaker 1: let me see what this show is all about. It's
Speaker 1: the dumbest thing I've ever seen in my life. Like, dude,
Speaker 1: I gotta describe to you what a train wreck this was.
Speaker 1: So they literally just have different celebrities dressed up. Put
Speaker 1: the Antonio Brown picture back up for second. So they
Speaker 1: have people that are dressed like this, Frank right in
Speaker 1: mass like this. They have a recording of somebody singing,
Speaker 1: and they have judges quote unquote trying to guess who's
Speaker 1: under the mask. But they're not really singing. This is
Speaker 1: a recording, so I don't I don't know what they
Speaker 1: get judged on. I don't know what's right or wrong.
Speaker 1: And somehow at the end of the episode they just
Speaker 1: reveal who it is. And last night of the the person
Speaker 1: that revealed was Antonio Brown. That's the whole show. It
Speaker 1: was one of the dumber things I've ever seen in
Speaker 1: my life. What are we doing? Greg? I don't know.
Speaker 1: There were people yesterday that was saying that all of
Speaker 1: this attention was drawn just to uh and embrasically bring
Speaker 1: publicity to the show. The mess singer Probably not. When's
Speaker 1: the Antonio Brown? James Harrison? Did that happen yet? I
Speaker 1: haven't seen it. Here we go. It's from This tweet
Speaker 1: was from Greg Gabriel yesterday. Thirty years NFL scouting, nine
Speaker 1: years a scouting director of the Chicago Bears. He has
Speaker 1: twenty three thousand followers on Twitter, so pretty big following
Speaker 1: this was the tweet yesterday that everyone's killing about football.
Speaker 1: Fans for years have been critical of scouts because Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown slid to the sixth round. I think we's be
Speaker 1: seen in the last few days why there were issues
Speaker 1: while while he was in college, so he fell. Teams
Speaker 1: know what they are doing. Teams know what they're doing, Greg, theoretically,
Speaker 1: so you don't take a headcase and Antonio Brown's gonna
Speaker 1: go down as top five wide receiver of altne It's
Speaker 1: very dumb. It's a very dumb take, right Like, it's
Speaker 1: a very very dumb take. Randy Moss dropped because you
Speaker 1: know these issues. Damn Marino drop because he had all
Speaker 1: these issues. Teams know what they're doing. It's very dumb.
Speaker 1: It will change. Do you think that people in life
Speaker 1: are actually this dumb or is everything done to kind
Speaker 1: of like draw attention to themselves. Like did he knew
Speaker 1: that he was going to a backlash from this tweet.
Speaker 1: I think, do you think like he wanted to get them?
Speaker 1: You know, Actually I think it's certain depend on actually
Speaker 1: believe depend on certain per person, right, Like certain people
Speaker 1: say things to get a reaction. Certain people do this
Speaker 1: stuff all the time. I like the new sweater Express
Speaker 1: a lot of Express cooling for christ Like it looks good.
Speaker 1: I have a similar one. It was. It's basically just
Speaker 1: trading wardrobes at this At this point, we are Yeah,
Speaker 1: when your closet you go on, my class might be expression, um,
Speaker 1: wake up on Sunday mornings, pajamas. And then some people
Speaker 1: are so old school they really believe these things. That guy,
Speaker 1: I bet you believes it. I really do. He is
Speaker 1: an older gentleman. I bet he believes it years NFL scouting,
Speaker 1: so he's been around the game. Like the dude that
Speaker 1: wrote the article saying he's not voting for the Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame because he didn't want to vote for Marianna Rivera,
Speaker 1: So he's just gonna have stain like that whole article exactly.
Speaker 1: It was very dumb, very dumb. But does he believe
Speaker 1: that or he believes or is he just trying to
Speaker 1: draw attention to himself. There's no way of knowing really, right,
Speaker 1: because he was the talk of the town. He was
Speaker 1: not all like everyone's talking about him on every radio show.
Speaker 1: They're talking about him on like serious x M, like
Speaker 1: Y network. Right, there's no way of knowing. It's like
Speaker 1: a fine line. Do people actually mean these like ridiculous
Speaker 1: takes that they that they say, or they're just doing
Speaker 1: it to draw attention. It's interesting. Yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: if anyone has any kind of idea what Juju Smith
Speaker 1: Schuster saying. He's not saying anything on with the Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown and for what it's worth, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you had to say this woman's name, she's an NFL
Speaker 1: network reporter a DT. I can't even I'll spell the
Speaker 1: last name if anyone wants to follower on Twitter K
Speaker 1: I N K H A B W A l A.
Speaker 1: If we're reading into tea leaves, Antonio Brown is likely gone.
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlinson's certainly when asked if there's a point where
Speaker 1: talent becomes not worth it, multiple teammates say they're done.
Speaker 1: He's not looking chastened as chastened. What's that word, right?
Speaker 1: T H A S T E N e d in
Speaker 1: his videos, and as Mike Garatfolo tells us, there's no
Speaker 1: caption you know that there are. They're currently odds on
Speaker 1: which team Antonio Brown plays for? What what are we dealing?
Speaker 1: The first days? It's literally day three year? What are
Speaker 1: we dealing? Well? Greg, Happy New Year? Minus five odds
Speaker 1: for the Pittsburgh Stealers. I'm sure I want to know.
Speaker 1: The second team is the Niners, who just like to
Speaker 1: get their odds. Plus seven hundred. Jets are plus eight hundred,
Speaker 1: baby tied with the Colts, right, That's that's awesome. Also,
Speaker 1: also it's silly that the Niners are second, because why
Speaker 1: are they going to trade Antonio Brown where he wants
Speaker 1: to go. It's not it's not gonna happen. You're not
Speaker 1: gonna do that. But it actually kind of makes sense
Speaker 1: from like a football perspective. Don't understand if you never
Speaker 1: see I I got it, But the Niners gonna up
Speaker 1: the second overall pick form probably not? Probably not. I
Speaker 1: was listening to a podcast that would remain nameless this morning.
Speaker 1: They said they would trade a top three pick to
Speaker 1: get it. Do you think you wouldn't do it? No? No,
Speaker 1: Jim mean g and Antonio Brown until he gets to
Speaker 1: know it again. Right, come on, let's let's let's stop this. Alright.
Speaker 1: Well look that's it. That's the Antonio Brown second of
Speaker 1: what else we got? All right? What else? What else
Speaker 1: do we got? So we got a five? We have
Speaker 1: Virginia zach Is coming on the program about six minutes.
Speaker 1: And I wanted to use this opportunity to the other
Speaker 1: thing I watched last night. Yeah, whatever, great, So I
Speaker 1: told you I was watching this true crime thing, right,
Speaker 1: the true crime Doctor. So Junie went to school, she
Speaker 1: was it was a major in art, as you know, right,
Speaker 1: and she went to school with these people named the
Speaker 1: Kaplan Twins. It was these two girls that created art,
Speaker 1: right exactly. So they created artists twins. And what they
Speaker 1: would do is basically just paint themselves nude together and
Speaker 1: paint that. And you didn't really like them very much.
Speaker 1: The teacher, like people out there listening might be like,
Speaker 1: well I'd love to see that, right, And the teachers
Speaker 1: didn't really like their work. But we're like, listen, these
Speaker 1: people know what they're doing, like they'll be famous because
Speaker 1: of what their art is. Right. So they moved to
Speaker 1: l A, move to l A and continue painting themselves
Speaker 1: like the pretty sexual poses. It's weird. It's like there
Speaker 1: their sisters and they're strong feelings about the art industry.
Speaker 1: I would like to talk they is do Yeah, you
Speaker 1: can give her a call. Um, it's completely subjective industry.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Sure, so anyways make millions of dollars
Speaker 1: based on like what they think looks nice. Sure. So
Speaker 1: you have these two twins doing this thing, and they
Speaker 1: became what's known as insta famous, right, like like like
Speaker 1: f Jerry and so I wanted to work, right, So
Speaker 1: there's a little eight minute episodes. There's one on f
Speaker 1: Jerry which we watch which is like he's just like
Speaker 1: a normal dude that it has a good eye for gifts.
Speaker 1: And that was like the whole thing and memes that's
Speaker 1: and then that was it. It was the whole episode
Speaker 1: and then them. It was about them, And I was like,
Speaker 1: this episode, stupid, you're telling me why she became into famous.
Speaker 1: You wanted to became into the famous because they paint
Speaker 1: themselves nude and they post nude pictures. This is why
Speaker 1: they became famous. This is why they have two undred
Speaker 1: Instagram Like, this is not Juju Smith Schuster's tweet. No,
Speaker 1: you don't have to try and look into this one
Speaker 1: too hard, Greg, sex cells, that's all you need to know.
Speaker 1: That's like the name of the game. He was like like, oh,
Speaker 1: like it's so arts, Like, yeah, that's so different. It's
Speaker 1: oh the con because they're look at their Instagram. What
Speaker 1: is it called. It's the Kaplan's Wins, Caplin Twins looking

Speaker 1: here we go. This is Frank's live reaction in this
Speaker 1: would not having this conversation. How many followers do they

Speaker 1: their whole thing is about because like female empowerment or whatnot,
Speaker 1: So just painting like famous naked pictures. So there's one
Speaker 1: of like Nicki Minaj, I think, and then there's one
Speaker 1: of like Kim Kay. They're standing in front of them.
Speaker 1: I see that. You see that one now in the background. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I see that. That's kind of that's that's their aren't
Speaker 1: in the background. Um, you continue down, you'll see them.
Speaker 1: They're covering themselves up. There's a lot of them up
Speaker 1: on Instagram, the Underscore Kapitlan Underscore Twins. If you want to,
Speaker 1: you also remember like their sisters. So it's kind of weird,

Speaker 1: art background fance, it doesn't. Yeah, oh, there we go.

Speaker 1: give us the latest of what we need to know
Speaker 1: on wild Card weekend. What's going on Virginia? Hey guys,
Speaker 1: Happy New Year. Happy New Year to you as well.
Speaker 1: I hope you're doing well, doing very well, staying busy.
Speaker 1: Obviously a lot to talk about. Obviously, we're just past
Speaker 1: the holiday season, which means DR has to be on vacation.
Speaker 1: So Virginia joins with us here today. And I want
Speaker 1: to start with games from this weekend Virginia before we
Speaker 1: move on to the second round of the playoffs. And
Speaker 1: let me start in Indianapolis, where the big question I
Speaker 1: believe isn't actually about some of their stupidision players. It's
Speaker 1: about Ryan their center, and the entire offensive line is
Speaker 1: different when Ryan Kelly plays and when he doesn't. The
Speaker 1: protection for Andrew Luck is a heck of a lot
Speaker 1: better when he plays versus when he doesn't. The running
Speaker 1: room for Marlon Matt heck of a lot better when
Speaker 1: he plays and when he doesn't. Will Ryan Kelly be
Speaker 1: out there for the Colts this weekend. He's definitely trending
Speaker 1: in the right direction right now. He was limited Tuesday
Speaker 1: and then upgraded to a full participant on Wednesday, which
Speaker 1: tells me his neck must have responded pretty well to
Speaker 1: practice on Tuesday. Um. The concern here is that he's
Speaker 1: a high injury risk, which really shouldn't be a surprise.
Speaker 1: Neck injuries can be really tough. UM, You're never I
Speaker 1: don't think he's really going to be a hundred percent
Speaker 1: and fully recovered at any point until he has the
Speaker 1: off season to take some time off. UM. He also
Speaker 1: recently had a pretty serious m Z sales spring, so
Speaker 1: he has a lot of injuries he's been dealing with. UM.
Speaker 1: But the good news is his health performance factor is
Speaker 1: right between that above average and peak category. So I
Speaker 1: actually do expect him to play pretty well as long
Speaker 1: as he can stay on the field. Virginia, I want
Speaker 1: to ask you about t Y Hilton wants stick with
Speaker 1: the same team, the Indianapolis Colts here. Obviously, they really
Speaker 1: do go as Ryan Kelly goes when it comes to
Speaker 1: the run game. He's so pivotal in the run game.
Speaker 1: We know how great their offensive line is played all
Speaker 1: season long. But for the past game, Andrew Looks favorite
Speaker 1: target has been t Y Hilton. What he's dealing with
Speaker 1: this ankle injury. It just came out that he did
Speaker 1: not practice again Thursday. He hasn't practiced really the past
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. He's kind of like played through the injury.
Speaker 1: But you can see just last week in the final game,
Speaker 1: it's the Titans he's not on Is that still the
Speaker 1: case head against Walker weekend? Yeah, he's He's definitely nowhere
Speaker 1: near one really. Over the last month, He's missed a
Speaker 1: lot of practice time. But the good news is Hilton
Speaker 1: is one of those guys that doesn't really need to
Speaker 1: practice to play well. Um. He's had three of his
Speaker 1: last six games he's gone for over a hundred yards,
Speaker 1: which is incredibly impressive when you're a wide receiver playing
Speaker 1: through an ankle injury. Um. Of course he's high risk
Speaker 1: at percent, but again, he's seventy HP, which is right
Speaker 1: on the border of peak. So I actually think he
Speaker 1: could have a pretty good game despite missing practice. But
Speaker 1: this is one of those cases he could be kind
Speaker 1: of in and out of the game, UM and may
Speaker 1: maybe not on a snap count, but may try to
Speaker 1: use them on um, you know, more important place to
Speaker 1: try to save him and make sure he can get
Speaker 1: through the game. But I think he should be able
Speaker 1: to play through it despite the miss practice. All right,
Speaker 1: So you hy, Hilton has missed a lot of practice
Speaker 1: really over the last month. He showed up on game day, Frank,
Speaker 1: I think he'll be ready to rock on Sunday, and
Speaker 1: he typic Saturday Saturday. He typically owns the texts he does.
Speaker 1: This is what we always talk about, and we'll try
Speaker 1: and tie this into DFS now because obviously that's a
Speaker 1: lot of what people are playing is DFS. UH this
Speaker 1: year against the Texans um you know, back on December
Speaker 1: nine nine, earlier on in the season, he went four
Speaker 1: for one fifteen, so two games over a hundred yards
Speaker 1: against the Texans this year. I will say this, Greg,
Speaker 1: if you're too scared off to use c Y Hilton
Speaker 1: and I said yesterday, the way to attack the Texans
Speaker 1: is in the secondary. I think Dentreleman, the way he's
Speaker 1: playing right now FA Games would a touchdown is great
Speaker 1: this week, even battling a bit of an injury himself,
Speaker 1: he should be ready to rock though on Sunday as well.
Speaker 1: We're talking about zak Is of inside injuries, who's given
Speaker 1: us the latest injury news on all the players from
Speaker 1: this weekend. And let's get to that Baltimore Ravens Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Chargers game where Melvin Gordon got hurt in the
Speaker 1: second half of the Chargers meaningless win. Were with me
Speaker 1: in this game, I should say, uh. In week seventeen
Speaker 1: when asked if he's gonna play, he said, yeah, like,
Speaker 1: obviously he's going to play. How seriously injured me. We're
Speaker 1: showing that he has a Grade one ankle sprain, which
Speaker 1: is relatively minor but still can be tough to play through,
Speaker 1: just you know, one week after getting hurt. So his
Speaker 1: injury risk is at twenty nine percent, which is very high. Um.
Speaker 1: You probably also remember he had that MCL sprain in
Speaker 1: week twelve and missed a month. Um, it just kind
Speaker 1: of always seems to be something with him, So if
Speaker 1: it's not his ankle, I wouldn't be surprised if he
Speaker 1: picks up another injury. His health performance factor is also
Speaker 1: oh average right now four percent, which is obviously not
Speaker 1: very good. Um, he hasn't done great the last two weeks,
Speaker 1: been pretty slow since returning from that mc L screen.
Speaker 1: So unfortunately not looking great for him. Um, but it
Speaker 1: does look like he'll play after getting in a full
Speaker 1: practice yesterday. Yeah, I think he's gonna play, also, Frankie,
Speaker 1: but I don't know effective he's going to be. And
Speaker 1: if you're in a playoff fantasy, he heard it from Virginia.
Speaker 1: Injury risk that is very very high and the Ravens
Speaker 1: rushed team is obviously awesome. I don't really want to
Speaker 1: use Melvin Gordon this weekend. Yeah, I'm with you on
Speaker 1: that one. Obviously, you're playing out a playoff like an
Speaker 1: entire playoff fantasy game, which I know a lot of
Speaker 1: people do play in as well, and you can only
Speaker 1: choose one later from the Chargers. I just don't know
Speaker 1: that I would get Melvin Gordon in there going up
Speaker 1: against the Ravens this week. They only allowed three point
Speaker 1: five two yards per carried to opposing running back, so yeah,
Speaker 1: really tough matchup. I think Alston Ekeler is going to
Speaker 1: be back for this game as well, um, so we'll
Speaker 1: see what happens there. I don't think I want to
Speaker 1: use him in DFS this week, so it'll be interesting
Speaker 1: to see what happens there. I want to go back
Speaker 1: to the Colton Texans game a real quick Virginia, when
Speaker 1: I asked you about Kiki Qt. It feels like Kiki
Speaker 1: qt has been on the brink of playing for like
Speaker 1: a month now but just hasn't. But there could be
Speaker 1: value here because the last time he faced the Colts,
Speaker 1: which was his first game of the season, actually he
Speaker 1: had eleven catches for a hundred and nine yards, So
Speaker 1: I do think there could be some value here, But
Speaker 1: again we're just getting another report that he's a game
Speaker 1: time call. If Kiki Qt plays, what do the algorithms
Speaker 1: say about how effective he can be this week? So
Speaker 1: he is barely sneaking in to the peak HPF categories.
Speaker 1: So if they do clear him to play, actually do
Speaker 1: think he could do pretty well. Um, he's back at now.
Speaker 1: Of course, his injury risk is still pretty high. We've
Speaker 1: seen time and time again how tough hamstring strands are,
Speaker 1: and he's just a classic case of you think you're
Speaker 1: getting close, you're feeling pretty good, maybe you get back
Speaker 1: to but you just never quite there. Um these injuries
Speaker 1: really effective players explosiveness um, and that's gonna be huge
Speaker 1: for him, um if he if he does get out
Speaker 1: there this weekend. UM, So of course, always concerned he's
Speaker 1: going to reinjure hamstring. But I do think this is
Speaker 1: going to finally be the week that he returns. And
Speaker 1: I'll also add that he just hit his optimal recovery
Speaker 1: time for his latest hamstring string, so I think he'll
Speaker 1: be able to play. But again, we got to keep
Speaker 1: expectations in check for a little while with him, the
Speaker 1: qut has been a guy that's been injured all year
Speaker 1: with this hamstring. Like when he was out there early on,
Speaker 1: he was effective, immediately hurt the hamstring, rushed back immediately
Speaker 1: reinjure the hamstring, and it played since week twelve grade correct,
Speaker 1: know these hamstrings linger from week twelve till now not
Speaker 1: playing at all. Eighteen. Essentially, I have to think that
Speaker 1: he's at least close, like he's got to be close. No, no,
Speaker 1: I I should be there. I agree. I agree with that,
Speaker 1: And the Texans didn't really have a reason to push
Speaker 1: him because I weren't really in a race for a
Speaker 1: playoff spot, although we could have used them to get
Speaker 1: the home field over the Patriots. You don't play with
Speaker 1: the Texans. Yeah, but no, we a's like everyone who's
Speaker 1: ruining against the Patriots. I don't care about Patriots. I do.
Speaker 1: That's great. Nevertheless, they were almost waiting for this spot
Speaker 1: to get QT back. I think he is healthy. As
Speaker 1: Reginia said, the hamshing is always you know, kind of
Speaker 1: eligible to be reinjured. But I think he is as
Speaker 1: healthy as he's going to be, expecially a big game
Speaker 1: at a key QUC this week a big game, and
Speaker 1: I think it's worth mentioning because these low to mid
Speaker 1: range wide receivers and DfES this week you have to
Speaker 1: pay attention to because you want to pay up for
Speaker 1: Zeke obviously against the Seahawks, you want to pay up
Speaker 1: for DeAndre Hopkins, the best wide receiver on the slate.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to find somewhere to save some money
Speaker 1: because you want to use Zach Ertz, you want to
Speaker 1: use Eric Ebron. How do you save money? Use guys
Speaker 1: like Dontrell Inman and Kiki Qt. He's only so. I
Speaker 1: think those are guys that are certainly available. But another
Speaker 1: couple of guys you want to look too is in Chicago,
Speaker 1: where the Eagles Bears games really interesting because the Bears
Speaker 1: wide receiving corps is actually pretty beat up. Alan Robinson
Speaker 1: didn't play last week, Anthony Miller got hurt last week.
Speaker 1: Taylor Gabriel at some point got hurt last week. What's
Speaker 1: going on with the wide receiver corps in Chicago? Right
Speaker 1: and averaging yet? So right now, I'll start with Anthony Miller.
Speaker 1: He's done with the shoulder injury. Um appeared to dislocate
Speaker 1: his shoulder again, the same thing he did in week three.
Speaker 1: It's something you can definitely play through. Very painful, but
Speaker 1: it all kind of depends on what damage was caused
Speaker 1: when you dislocate the shoulder. UM, if you didn't tear
Speaker 1: your laborum or stuff for a rotator cuff tear, it's
Speaker 1: mostly about pain management and just dealing with the inflammation.
Speaker 1: I'm hopeful that that's the case here. He got in
Speaker 1: a full practice yesterday, so he is UM definitely on
Speaker 1: track to play, and we're showing that he's in the
Speaker 1: peak health performance factor category. So I actually think he
Speaker 1: should be able to play pretty well this weekend. UM.
Speaker 1: Alan Robinson, he was hurt in week sixteen and then
Speaker 1: kind of a surprise, didn't play in week seventeen. UM
Speaker 1: with bruised ribs, but it doesn't seem like he has
Speaker 1: any fractures. UM. This is sort of another pain management
Speaker 1: kind of thing. UM. It's you know, every time he
Speaker 1: takes a big hit, falls hard, it's going to be painful,
Speaker 1: but something he can definitely play through. UM. He is
Speaker 1: still an elevated injury risk and also recently battle to
Speaker 1: hip injury, so there's a lot more concerned with Robinson
Speaker 1: than there is with Miller of getting reinjured. But um,
Speaker 1: I think both Robinson and Miller should be able to
Speaker 1: be out there this weekend and should play fairly well.
Speaker 1: Now this is an interesting one. Greg. I'm happy you
Speaker 1: brought up the chart of the Bears wide receivers because
Speaker 1: the Eagles have allowed the third most passing yards in
Speaker 1: the NFL per game this season, and I think that
Speaker 1: this is a place that you can attack them. Obviously
Speaker 1: in the secondary, they've dealt with so many injuries in
Speaker 1: their secondary. If I did choose one Bears wide receiver
Speaker 1: that I feel best about this week, just in terms
Speaker 1: of like salary meeting opportunity, it's probably Taylor Gabriel at
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars, Jim Sign, Alan Robinson, you know, dealing
Speaker 1: with the ribs. He didn't play last week. Anthony Miller,
Speaker 1: if you were watching that game, I mean his his
Speaker 1: shoulder was really bummed. Like Virginia said, it seems like
Speaker 1: he dislocated his shoulder there. That looked like a really,
Speaker 1: really bad injury. So we'll see what happens. But also
Speaker 1: in that game, on the other side, the quarterback Nick Folds,
Speaker 1: can he lead the Philadelphia Eagles back to the Promised Land.
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out this week. He has a really,
Speaker 1: really tough matchup in Chicago against that Bears defense. He
Speaker 1: himself is also dealing with a rib injury. Doug Peterson
Speaker 1: confirmed that he expects Nick Foles to start and be
Speaker 1: ready for this game. How effective will he be? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so he was limited yesterday at practice. UM, I definitely
Speaker 1: expect him to miss quite a bit of practice reps
Speaker 1: this week. But but he should be able to play.
Speaker 1: UM Like, we'll have extra padding, um, which could have
Speaker 1: a slight effect on his range of motion. UM, but
Speaker 1: I think he should be able to go out there
Speaker 1: and play pretty well. Optimal recovery time for his injuries
Speaker 1: two weeks so of course he's not going to hit
Speaker 1: that before the game this weekend. But you know, his
Speaker 1: numbers are still looking okay. His HPF is at fifty
Speaker 1: seven percent, so that's telling me that his performance will
Speaker 1: definitely be affected by the ribs. But he shouldn't be
Speaker 1: a total bust or anything this weekend. Alright, So not
Speaker 1: a total bust. It's it's probably more painful for him
Speaker 1: than anything else. I think he's he'll be through the pain.
Speaker 1: Will obviously be out there against Chicago on Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 1: It should be fun fighting through the pain against that
Speaker 1: against that defensive Khalil mack May knocking out very early
Speaker 1: in his just saying all right, I think that's everything
Speaker 1: Friday from this weekend, right. I don't messing anything. I
Speaker 1: think that's everything, right. So that's everything from this weekend.
Speaker 1: Let me go on to next weekend. Teams that we
Speaker 1: already know we're playing in the divisional round of the playoffs.
Speaker 1: We're talking to Virginia Zakias of inside injuries. Let's start
Speaker 1: with the Kahuna. I know we've asked about him the
Speaker 1: last several weeks, but he's certainly deserving of an update,
Speaker 1: and that's Todd Gurley. By the time that Gurley gets
Speaker 1: back onto the field next week, it'll be about a
Speaker 1: month since he last played with that knee. I nobody
Speaker 1: have that much information. I'm wondering if he like tours
Speaker 1: m c L or something like that that kept him out,
Speaker 1: or his miniscus or something that has kept him out
Speaker 1: for really a month. He Virginia, I know there's certain
Speaker 1: times where he's warmed up. We thought he was gonna
Speaker 1: play and it ultimately didn't happen. Sean McVeigh has say
Speaker 1: has said they expect him to play next week. There
Speaker 1: was no like guarantee or anything. What's going on and
Speaker 1: tell Gurley, yes, they originally said that his he was
Speaker 1: dealing with me inflammation. UM. I've never heard any reports
Speaker 1: that there were you know, or a significant damage to
Speaker 1: any ligaments or the meniscus or anything. But you never
Speaker 1: really know since teams don't have to give you, um
Speaker 1: that official diagnosis. I'm hopeful that he is just dealing
Speaker 1: with inflammation and maybe some tendonitis in his knee, which
Speaker 1: is definitely very painful. But after four weeks he should
Speaker 1: be good to go. UM. Right now, we're showing that
Speaker 1: by the time they play next week, as long as
Speaker 1: nothing significant changes, he's gonna be back up at an HPF,
Speaker 1: which is very good. UM. So not as long as
Speaker 1: he doesn't have any setbacks, I think he's going to
Speaker 1: be good to go. UM. But he is of course
Speaker 1: someone to watch and it could benefit him UM if
Speaker 1: they if they don't give him, you know, twenty plus
Speaker 1: carries in that game, and they try to spread the
Speaker 1: ball around a little bit just so they don't overwork
Speaker 1: him and can make sure he makes it through the
Speaker 1: end of the game. Oh, some interesting news there. I
Speaker 1: know you're debating whether or not you want to use
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley and your your fantasy football playoff so along
Speaker 1: with a lot of other people. Again, you know, fantasy
Speaker 1: football playoff thing is really interesting because you have to
Speaker 1: figure out, like how deep is this team gonna go,
Speaker 1: how effective are they going to be in what games?
Speaker 1: So it's very interesting. But you know, Todd Gurley obviously
Speaker 1: one of the best running backs all season long, and
Speaker 1: that's where I want to continue to go. Some of
Speaker 1: the best running backs all season long. Damian Williams of
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. He drew the start in Week seventeen.
Speaker 1: That was because spencer Ware surprisingly was inactive. Do you
Speaker 1: think that was something where they just wanted to keep
Speaker 1: they want to keep him fresh for the playoffs or
Speaker 1: is it I mean, Williams has been so good they
Speaker 1: don't really want to use spencer Ware, Like it kind
Speaker 1: of seems weird that he was inactive in week seventeen
Speaker 1: given the fact that he practice in full all week.
Speaker 1: So what's the latest on spencer Ware. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: if it was a must win game where definitely would
Speaker 1: have been out there. But with these hamstring injuries, it's
Speaker 1: best take as much time off as he possibly can.
Speaker 1: And you know, with this bye week now he now
Speaker 1: has two extra weeks. He didn't risk aggravating it last week.
Speaker 1: UM and where again we're showing he should be good
Speaker 1: to go next week. He's at He's going to be
Speaker 1: at HPF again, as long as there's no setbacks UM
Speaker 1: Now his injury risk is still elevated at so that's
Speaker 1: a slight concern. Again, these hamstring strains are so tricky.
Speaker 1: He also was recently dealing with a shoulder injury UM
Speaker 1: and of course he missed all of last season with
Speaker 1: a torn PCL. So he has quite a few injuries
Speaker 1: that still need to be watched. But as long as
Speaker 1: he should be out there next week and I think
Speaker 1: he's uh, he should play pretty well. So that's positive
Speaker 1: information because Spencer where of course, but it makes everything
Speaker 1: harder exactly because trying to project forward for these fantasy playoffastructures,
Speaker 1: do you really want to get in on Damian Williams
Speaker 1: or Spencer where it kind of just muddies the water
Speaker 1: a little bit too much. If you can only take
Speaker 1: one Chiefs player for these these formats, I think you're
Speaker 1: probably leaning with either Mahomes, Kelsey or Tardy Kill. Totally
Speaker 1: agree with that last question. It does revolve around a
Speaker 1: Chiefs player, forgotten man Sammy Watkins. We mentioned him briefly
Speaker 1: on yesterday's program where we would take him in draft
Speaker 1: next year. Sammy Watkins healthy ish, Yeah, as long as
Speaker 1: he didn't have a fracture last week, which it doesn't
Speaker 1: sound like he did, I think he's gonna be good
Speaker 1: to go. Um. Now, foot injuries are very tricky. He
Speaker 1: is going to hit his optimal recovery time this week,
Speaker 1: so that's the good news. But he's still gonna be
Speaker 1: right on the border of that elevated high injury risk
Speaker 1: currently sitting at just foot injuries are very, very easily aggravated. Um.
Speaker 1: We already saw him got hurt in week nine, return
Speaker 1: week eleven, and then quickly got hurt again. So he's
Speaker 1: proof already that foot injuries definitely linger. You don't ever
Speaker 1: get over them as quickly as UM you think you might.
Speaker 1: But I think now that he's going to have I
Speaker 1: guess six or seven weeks off, I think he'll be
Speaker 1: ready to go. All right, it's a positive information for once.
Speaker 1: When it comes to Sammy Watkins, good stuff. You will
Speaker 1: not be using him in your fantasy point, No, you
Speaker 1: will not. Virginia zag Is inside injuries. Thank you so
Speaker 1: much for joining us. Good luck this weekend. We appreciate
Speaker 1: your time. Yeah, thanks guys. Absolutely, there you go. That's
Speaker 1: the latest injury information. Pretty positive day, Yeah and not
Speaker 1: so bad. Kind of cleared up some situations when it
Speaker 1: comes to the Colts obviously needs to know about Ryan Kelly.
Speaker 1: That affects Marlon Mack a lot for this weekend, uh
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton as well, and then some of those
Speaker 1: cheaper options with like pk QT and the Bears wide receivers.
Speaker 1: Kind Of everything's coming together for for the DFS slate
Speaker 1: this weekend. With that, we're gonna take a break. When
Speaker 1: we come back. Let's bird box, shall we? Do you

Speaker 1: to know the plot of bird Boxer? You just want
Speaker 1: to be surprised when you watch, Like me, the plot
Speaker 1: were already I don't. We're doing a bit, so if
Speaker 1: you could just tell me a plot to be great. Alright,
Speaker 1: So in bird box Um, if you're not blindfolded, you
Speaker 1: see something so terrible that it makes you want to
Speaker 1: kill yourself. It's horrible. Yeah, you can unblindfold and you
Speaker 1: see something so terrible you want to kill your There's
Speaker 1: like some kind of presence. It's like, right, what is
Speaker 1: the why do you blind your blinfelge? Why do you
Speaker 1: play this game? Though? Why? Why do you bird Why
Speaker 1: do you bird box? I guess why? Is that? Right? Well? No,
Speaker 1: you're you're bird box is not a verb. It's the
Speaker 1: name of the movie. And you'll figure out why when
Speaker 1: you watch the movie. But you blindfold yourself so that
Speaker 1: you don't die, Greg, that's like the whole plot of
Speaker 1: the movie. But we're confused. If you don't, like, if
Speaker 1: you look outside, you see a presence that is so
Speaker 1: dark and horrible that it makes you want to kill yourself.
Speaker 1: But kind of like drafting Sammy Walkinsky. That's harsh. Um.
Speaker 1: But so you blindfold yourself so that you can live
Speaker 1: Do you have to live your whole life blindfolded? You
Speaker 1: can never get blind off? That's that's that's where you
Speaker 1: gotta watch the movie. How do you have like children
Speaker 1: and stuff? Like the movie opens up with Sandra blindfolded.
Speaker 1: Is that you're saying, well, yes, it's an interesting It
Speaker 1: kind of time wise, kind of like starts off in
Speaker 1: the middle, kind only closer to the end, and then
Speaker 1: like it jumps back to flashback and then goes back
Speaker 1: to where they are and then like at the end,
Speaker 1: it all kind of like meets in the middle of course. Okay,
Speaker 1: so that's pretty interesting. I mean it's not scary, right,
Speaker 1: that's scary. No, it's not. It's not scary. It's not
Speaker 1: a scary movie. So the thing like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's kind of like a thriller. Ish, that's fine, that's fine.
Speaker 1: I don't wonder if she's like a horror movie. Why
Speaker 1: are you scared of horror movies? I don't be scared.
Speaker 1: You'll be all right, Greg, I guess notice you took
Speaker 1: your blindfold off. I'm going first, Yes, I told you
Speaker 1: that in the break. Sure, all right, So how's this
Speaker 1: gonna work? So what's gonna happens? The piece? So how's
Speaker 1: it gonna work? We've been told that. I thought it
Speaker 1: was like you three you something three times and you
Speaker 1: die if as you said previously, Frank, I thought it
Speaker 1: was like you got three. Um, you take three blindfolds off,
Speaker 1: you die, as you said with the movie, you say that. No,
Speaker 1: in the movie, if you take the blindfold off, you
Speaker 1: just die one time. It's not like three times. All right,
Speaker 1: Well for us, if you get a question wrong, you
Speaker 1: you die. But maybe three times make it worth fun.
Speaker 1: So what's gonna happen is France is gonna read me
Speaker 1: a stat line. There's going to be multiple choices. If
Speaker 1: I get it wrong, Um, I have three, I will
Speaker 1: have three chances. Once I get three wrong, my blindfold
Speaker 1: comes off and I affectively die. You die, lose, you lose,
Speaker 1: you lose forever. All right, So you're ready, already? All right,
Speaker 1: here we go. All right, We're gonna start at yeah
Speaker 1: running position. Just so you know, my eyes are closed
Speaker 1: as well. I thought I can see anything or and
Speaker 1: I obviously like for heters downs. I'm yeah, whatever, up cheating?
Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna start at the running back position. Greg.
Speaker 1: This player had even hundred and sixty eight rushing yards,
Speaker 1: nine eight rushing touchdowns, forty three receptions two hundred yards
Speaker 1: an additional receiving touchdown, nine total touchdowns. Mhm, is this
Speaker 1: player Melvin Gordon Joe Mixon? David Johnson for Philip Lindsay,
Speaker 1: I believe that this player is Joe Mixon. You have
Speaker 1: just died once. I'm just kidding. You gotta ride right, Greg,
Speaker 1: first try? Why did you say I got to write that? Man?
Speaker 1: I heard that because I wanted to, you know, build
Speaker 1: up the suspense loom you do? You stayed alive? Where
Speaker 1: is that? Impressed? Is so impressive? Greg? It was pretty good.
Speaker 1: You gotta right on your first try. Good job, but
Speaker 1: nailed it. You want to talk about Joe Mixon? Now?
Speaker 1: Do you know what? You and y nailed that? Because
Speaker 1: I was looking because I was actually looking up questions
Speaker 1: for you, Yester, and I was looking at Joe Mixon
Speaker 1: because it was it was surprising to me. And I
Speaker 1: don't think most fantasy owners realized as I looked at
Speaker 1: my camera, um well, I don't think most people realize
Speaker 1: is that Joe Mixon had more receptions and receiving yards
Speaker 1: than Giovanni Bernard did. Your story. You know that I
Speaker 1: could have guessed it because Geo missed a lot of
Speaker 1: time this year, so it makes me missed time also earlier. Now,
Speaker 1: a lot of people thought that Gio Bernard was still
Speaker 1: gonna have his presence, you know, his role as like
Speaker 1: a pass catcher, like something like what Jalen Richard did
Speaker 1: with the Oakland Raiders. But that was not the case.
Speaker 1: They pretty much handed the keys to Joe Mixon. Given
Speaker 1: like the Bengals offense was all over the place. They
Speaker 1: got off to a great start first two months of
Speaker 1: the season, everyone healthy, Andy Dalton, AJ Green, Bengal's offense
Speaker 1: got off to a great start greg and then everything happened.
Speaker 1: Would be interesting to say how the new coach utilizes
Speaker 1: the backfield, like hope, assuming it's not Huge Jackson who
Speaker 1: the quarterback is? And Andy Dalton gone from this team? No,
Speaker 1: I don't think so. J Green gone from this team.
Speaker 1: They're trying to trade them away. Probably not most Jet fans,
Speaker 1: I think, but but I think what's an interesting talking
Speaker 1: point is is Joe mix in a first round pick
Speaker 1: next year. You don't think so. I think the scarcity
Speaker 1: at the running back position. Yeah, I think they're very comfortable.
Speaker 1: I think they're very comfortable, and I would I would
Speaker 1: take the the offense that is ascending more so with
Speaker 1: the Cleveland bread makes sense. That makes sense depending on
Speaker 1: who their coaches as well. Just for the record, Okay,
Speaker 1: that next LL see if I can stay alive, I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna keep going until I die, alright, right right,
Speaker 1: just making sure that I understood what was happening. Alright, here,
Speaker 1: here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna move over to
Speaker 1: the quarterback position. Over to the quarterback position, Greg Susan,
Speaker 1: This player had three thousands, seven hundred and twenty five
Speaker 1: passing yards, seven asking touchdowns, fourteen interceptions. Is this player
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, Tom Brady, Baker Mayfield or Eli Manning mhm
Speaker 1: eli to have the best cisical season like the last
Speaker 1: six years and fourteen. You said, just over passing years
Speaker 1: her cousins, Eli Manning, Baker Mayfield that it was other one.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to t fbf B. Yeah, got so,
Speaker 1: I'm dead. You're not dead yet, right? You gotta get
Speaker 1: three wrong? Wrong, right, it is not t f B.
Speaker 1: All right, I think it's again, Well do you guys
Speaker 1: kind No, I don't think so, all right, Baker Mayfield,
Speaker 1: Greg was so I thought Baker and more touchdown one
Speaker 1: that I don't any seven touchdowns though he only given Look,
Speaker 1: he came in halfway through the third game of the season.
Speaker 1: He played fourteen games this year. Still through touchdown he's
Speaker 1: the rookie record. But I thought he had gotten the thirty,
Speaker 1: which is why he did not guess him. He did
Speaker 1: not get to thirty, but he did get went next year.
Speaker 1: So I tweeted out last night what my top twelve
Speaker 1: quarterbacks would look like. He was not in there because
Speaker 1: once again the position is so deep. So you know,
Speaker 1: I'll read you out the top twelve that I have
Speaker 1: and if you have any qualms with it, you can
Speaker 1: delete it. Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Andrew Look, Shaun Watson,
Speaker 1: big Ben, Matt Ryan. All depended on O C obviously,
Speaker 1: Ham Newton, Russell Wilson, Philip Rivers, Jared Goff, Drew Brees,
Speaker 1: Mitchell Trobisky. That's my top twelve Baker ow mitchells. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing. Mitchell Trobisky in the first half of
Speaker 1: the season, when he was completely healthy and running all
Speaker 1: over the place, was super useful for fantasy purposes. On
Speaker 1: a per game basis, he was still really really good.
Speaker 1: Like he didn't finish high accumulative wise, but in points
Speaker 1: per game he was QUB eleven grade. I'm definitely taking Baker,
Speaker 1: so are you. I don't know. I don't think it
Speaker 1: says definitive as you're saying, all right, I think Matt
Speaker 1: Naggie makes a real, real difference for this offense, and
Speaker 1: so will the next offensive coordinator slash head coach. Can
Speaker 1: you say that? Can you say that for sure? What
Speaker 1: if Mike McCarthy is the head coach of the brown things? Here?
Speaker 1: I mean, Aaron Rodgers always fishes to keep well, Aaron
Speaker 1: Rodgers is a top five quarterback of all time. I
Speaker 1: have to say Baker Mayfield can't get there. But says
Speaker 1: right now, he's not saying that. Do you believe that
Speaker 1: you treature top five quarterback of all time Aaron Rodgers? Well,
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't grow up watching all the guys
Speaker 1: from like the eighties and the nineties and like and
Speaker 1: Marino and keep saying Roy Ekman and all these guys,
Speaker 1: like I did get to see Brady and see Peyton,
Speaker 1: and I think Rodgers in the top five. He's damn
Speaker 1: close he's in the top five. I don't think he's
Speaker 1: top five one. Super Bowl man. Yeah, I mean, everyone's
Speaker 1: gonna throw the super Bowl thing out there, but let's
Speaker 1: just say it's not partially you know, his coaching's fault,
Speaker 1: his defense, so it certainly is. I mean that's why
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy was just fired, right, Definitely, I don't know,
Speaker 1: but you know, I also did add something like, this
Speaker 1: is part of the reason why you should play super
Speaker 1: Flex next year, Greg, is because the quarterback position is
Speaker 1: so deep deep, so like there's still another another like
Speaker 1: seven names I didn't even mention that I wouldn't even
Speaker 1: mind having is my Week one starter. And then includes
Speaker 1: like I didn't even mention Tom Brady, Greg, he's not
Speaker 1: in the top twelve, Tom Brady, Carson Wentz, Josh Allen, Baker, Mayfield,
Speaker 1: Jimmy g Lamar, Jackson. Those are just that's like six
Speaker 1: seven other names. The QB position once again goes like eight.
Speaker 1: With that, we're gonna sign off of YouTube today. We
Speaker 1: appreciate you watching We we bird box, which was which
Speaker 1: was fun for me. A. We will continue to bird
Speaker 1: box the next five minutes or so. The Frenzy's on
Speaker 1: Nex with Jim Day, Corey Parson and I don't know
Speaker 1: about Ris Vetcher. We'll see he is. He is here
Speaker 1: right though, So that's that's good news. And listen to
Speaker 1: the podcast. We'll go another about five minutes or so.
Speaker 1: Please subscribe like rate us five stars and leave a comment.
Speaker 1: And if you're live on the radio, we go another
Speaker 1: five minutes or so. Thank give me another one. It
Speaker 1: looks so this looks so ridiculous though, just watching you
Speaker 1: talking to the camera, it's so great. It all right, Greg,
Speaker 1: here's what we're gonna do. We're moving on to the
Speaker 1: wide receiver position. Are you ready? I'm ready? Okay? Is
Speaker 1: that one? Sixty four receptions, eight hundred and twenty one yards,
Speaker 1: ten touchdowns and touchdowns? It's double digits. Is this Tyler Lockett?
Speaker 1: A Marii Cooper, Halvin Ridley or Mike Williams. I will
Speaker 1: say it is Tyler Lockett. I'll lock it. Are you
Speaker 1: locking it in? Are you lock it in? It in?
Speaker 1: I don't know what I just said, but I tried
Speaker 1: to make lock it into a verb. I will lock
Speaker 1: it in. I don't need to say and I will
Speaker 1: lock it really really that sucks. You did? You did
Speaker 1: have double touchdowns? Three of these players had double digit touchdowns?
Speaker 1: Would you like to guess which three? Greg, Well, Tyler
Speaker 1: lock is one of them? Is one of them? And
Speaker 1: the other other choices here Amari Cooper, Calvin Ridley, and
Speaker 1: Mike Williams. Mike are you asking me? Are you telling me?
Speaker 1: I don't think he did? He did really double touchdowns.
Speaker 1: He's not right, is he? He's not right here, He's
Speaker 1: not right. It's very close to this though, he's not
Speaker 1: He's not right. It's Calvin Ridley, Greg, It's Calvin sixty
Speaker 1: four receptions one yards and touchdowns, ninety two targets. The
Speaker 1: only name that was on that list that did not
Speaker 1: have double digit targe Cooper Cooper, Marie Cooper. And remember
Speaker 1: when we were talking about him or Cooper about a
Speaker 1: month ago, when everything was going right and everyone's riding
Speaker 1: high a Marie Cooper was the second round pick, right,
Speaker 1: you said that. I did not say that. Well, you
Speaker 1: said that. Well, we're best friends forever, so when I
Speaker 1: say something, you also I said, there's no chance. But
Speaker 1: everything when you know, we say things collectively, we're both
Speaker 1: held to accountable together. I don't think it's a second
Speaker 1: round pick anymore. Really, Okay, cool? Well great, I mean
Speaker 1: everything and everything could change in a month raft Stock
Speaker 1: and we said that at the time. We said, all right, yeah,
Speaker 1: we have to see what happens. But based on how
Speaker 1: he's played, he had a safe flour up to that
Speaker 1: point and he had a massive upside. Everything since then
Speaker 1: has completely craft on what I said. I ask you
Speaker 1: said the same question I asked you at the time,
Speaker 1: who would you rank these three Brandon Coaks, Robert Woods
Speaker 1: and Marie Cooper the same question I asked you, mhm,
Speaker 1: it's close Marie Cooper, Brandon Cooks and Robert Woods that
Speaker 1: those are the three players. Yeah, ah, I'll still take
Speaker 1: a Mary Coup, you will, Okay, he's the number one
Speaker 1: on the scene, he's number one team that doesn't throw,
Speaker 1: so that's great. Sorry, but he's also gonna get an
Speaker 1: off season to work with them as well. In the
Speaker 1: hand or if they hire someone else to be there,
Speaker 1: o c. They're gonna find ways to get a Mary Cooper.
Speaker 1: They don't pass the ball just tell you the truth, man,
Speaker 1: Where does Calvin really going draft? Six year? Where did
Speaker 1: Mike Williams going draft this year? Like the sixth round? Well,
Speaker 1: if you if you're recording party, any went in sixth round?
Speaker 1: Really realistically he was like ten, I'm really is gonna
Speaker 1: go higher than that next I think he really like
Speaker 1: the sixth round. Yeah, I think that makes sense. I
Speaker 1: think he's in the sixth rounds like a wider se three.
Speaker 1: He's gonna get upside. He's gonna go where like Robert
Speaker 1: Woods went this year? Is that fair where Robert Woods
Speaker 1: went this year? Yeah? Robert Woods went in the fifth
Speaker 1: round of some drafts, but yeah, like six seven, I
Speaker 1: could see him going like the six seventh round next year.
Speaker 1: I can see Mike Williams actually in that same exact range.
Speaker 1: I can see who would you rather have? Mike Williams,
Speaker 1: Ridley and lock it all kind of going in the
Speaker 1: same ring next year. Ranked them four next year? This
Speaker 1: is interesting. I'll also put Calvin Ridley first. I think
Speaker 1: he they're all very talented. I would say it's close
Speaker 1: between him and Mike Williams in terms of talent, but
Speaker 1: I think the opportunity might be best for Calvin Ridley
Speaker 1: playing inside the Dome. He's clearly the number two wide
Speaker 1: receiver on his team. Henry hurt Mike Williams. Ah, he's
Speaker 1: gonna hurt him. He's gonna hurt him a bit because
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates was not really a huge factor in the
Speaker 1: offense this year. You know, Hunter Henry is gonna have
Speaker 1: more work than that, so gonna get back to ten touchdowns.
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting. I don't think Tyroll Williams is back
Speaker 1: with a team, so like you can take away one guy,
Speaker 1: yeah had another. Maybe he's like close to the same
Speaker 1: he was this year. Fair enough the bird boxed I
Speaker 1: survived the phrase. By tomorrow, well we have to come
Speaker 1: back and find out that fantasy football Fansy's up next
Speaker 1: for Frank Stample, I'm Greg Susmo. Thanks so much for watching.
