1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, welcome back to the Drive. I'm Dale Lally here

2
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: with Matt Williamson and well, Matt, it's time for the

3
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:29,479
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Focus and our DFS lineup. We're in the money.

4
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: There you go. So if you played our lineup, you

5
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 1: scored a hundred and sixty four point two points, which

6
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: should get you in the money in most leagues more

7
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,559
Speaker 1: often than not. You w yeah, you're gonna be. We're

8
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: gonna be. Okay, our lineup finished in the contest that

9
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 1: we played in and again, remind me when I do these,

10
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: when we do it on Friday, do single yeah, because

11
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: all the people, most of the people ahead of us

12
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: were people who put seven lineups and there not that

13
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: that matters, but logic behind it wouldn't do it. I

14
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 1: mean right, well, I mean again, if you're if you're

15
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: making your bet and you've you know, you run your

16
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: optimizer and that's the lineup that tells you run that.

17
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: Then then you go with it and you win. You

18
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: know your you put twenty entries and well you won

19
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: twenty bets. Yeah, yeah, I mean each only to win.

20
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: But yeah, if you're confident one, you hit it a

21
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: little harder. So you want to hunt you again, a

22
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: five dollar contest, like guessue one hundred bucks. Okay, how

23
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: many people were in it? This one had like six

24
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: eight nine or something. I get it. And I could

25
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: have twenty, you know, twenty ballots. Well that would make

26
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: sense that I could scow the odds a little bit too. Yeah,

27
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: that's the other thing that it does. So the winning

28
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: the winning lineup had a score of two. And again

29
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: this guy had winning lineups at to seventeen point to

30
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: two points. Our lineup we mentioned, we scored a hundred

31
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: sixty four point two. We had Trevor Lawrence four teaen

32
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: point four. Javonte Williams got us twenty point eight last night. Yeah,

33
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: four point one percent ownership, surprise, it was a low. Um.

34
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: We had Nagia Harris, he got us ten point six points. Yeah,

35
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: fifteen point one percent ownership. Ceedee Lamb was was a

36
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: bus for us at this eighteen point six percent ownership.

37
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: But a J. Brown, Yeah, a J. Brown at four

38
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: four point five percent ownership got us twenty and a

39
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: half points. That was nice. Pittman at sixty five point

40
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 1: five percent ownership again, that kind of cancels everybody out.

41
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: But he had he had thirty point one. Oh, pet

42
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: Firemooth at a solid day twelve twelve and a half

43
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: points there at d se kwon Barkley again high ownership

44
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: at six thirty nine point six percent ownership, we got

45
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: thirty six point four points out of him, and the

46
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: Jaguars defense at point seven percent ownership, we got six

47
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 1: points out of that, which was nice. Yeah. Absolutely, Walker,

48
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: the first overall pick, had a big game and they

49
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: made some big plays on defense. Don't sleep on that.

50
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 1: So we'll do that again on Friday, as we do

51
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: every week on Friday. Now it's time to take a

52
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: look at some of the quarterback or some the waiver

53
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: wire pickups. Here. I'm looking at ESPNS uh Fantasy Football

54
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: Week to Catch and this is written by Eric Moody.

55
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, um, everything got changed around here. He used

56
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: to do this off a Road to World. Well now

57
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: they've got Barry doing it from ESPN to Road World.

58
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: But Barry does it as a video Okay, so you

59
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: can't do that. So we look at Eric Moody's here

60
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: pickups on ESPN. Preface this is this less than fifty

61
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: percent ownership in ESPN leagues or something like. Yeah, So

62
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: he's looking at the guys who are still out there

63
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: in the ESPN leagues. So Matt Ryan quarterbacks pickups. Matt

64
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: Ryan's only roster of ESPN League. I get that. I

65
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: mean he was like quarterback, he's not gonna run. You're

66
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: you know, he's probably even low on passing. Now if

67
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: you're even in a super flex league. Um, no, I

68
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: mean he's twenties. Yeah, right, that's where he's at. I

69
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: mean historically doesn't throw a ton of or touchdowns either, right, Um,

70
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: so you know it was okay, but you could do

71
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: better than that. Absolutely, if you have Dac only, I

72
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: mean that's like the only scenario. Well, that's that's the

73
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: thing you have. If you've got Dak Prescott, you're looking

74
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: for a quarterback and he didn't have a backup, I mean,

75
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: then Ryan's fine. You know, his other guy here is

76
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz at sixteen point six percent ownership. Would rather

77
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,239
Speaker 1: have I think I'd rather have Wentz. I'd rather have Wins.

78
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: I like the targets better. I think he's a little

79
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: more aggressive, he runs a little more. Yeah, he's gonna

80
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: get you. He's better quarterback, but for fantasy purposes, he is, Yeah,

81
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 1: running back Darryll Henderson has only owned in of league.

82
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: But there's some ten teamers out there, and that's all

83
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: Like I've never written this article for in my whole

84
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: writing CONSPI really hard. I mean, fourteen team league versus

85
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: ten team league is night and day of what's out

86
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: there to pick from? Yeah, but if he's available, he

87
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: should be picked. Yeah, he should be owned for sure.

88
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: You think he's like a starter this week? I mean

89
00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: I haven't, like, I think he's a flex. Yeah, okay,

90
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: I at him over akers. Yeah, but I think he's

91
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: a flex. Was clearly the two. Yeah, now that could

92
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: I think I texted you during the game, like next week,

93
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: I probably Flipps one twenty and yeah, he's on everyone's back. Khalil.

94
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: Herbert is owned in twenty five two percent of leagues. See,

95
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: he's interesting to me because say what you want about Montgomery,

96
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: he's fine. You know, but the last staff used him

97
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: like nausey. This this staff might be like, but we

98
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: like Herbert. Two, we're an't using like most. Yeah, you

99
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So Herbert's got a spot there too.

100
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: He might be more than a handcuff. He might be

101
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: more than that. He might be a true flex. Yeah,

102
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: he might be a flex stuff right, Um, And that's

103
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: what I wouldn't pick him up and play him as

104
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: a flex this week. I'd want to see it another week.

105
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: But he should be owned, right If he's out there

106
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: and you got a dead spot, grab him. Yeah. Absolutely.

107
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams same thing. He should be out there. He's

108
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: earned in thirty six percent of leagues. I think he

109
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: got fourteen thirteen fourteen touches last week in the game

110
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 1: they were losing, and he got the goal line touches

111
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: that the Swift owns the passing game, which makes him

112
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: extremely valuable. But it hurts Swift that Williams is the

113
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: goal one guy. Yeah, and so he should be owned.

114
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: He's only of leagues. Yeah, definitely. They both got double

115
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: digit carries last week in the game in the game

116
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: that Detroit was losing. So and they want to run

117
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 1: the football and a good line and he's a good player.

118
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: They just I think they want to take it easy

119
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: on Swift. I don't think they want to overwork Swift

120
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,119
Speaker 1: right about that. Yeah, And they loved Jamal Williams. Jeff

121
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 1: Wilson Jr. Obviously, the Elijah Mitchell injury is gonna be

122
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: out it looks like eight weeks. That's must be a

123
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: really bad hamstring. Uh, he's only on the three point

124
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 1: five percent of the leagues. I think he's the number

125
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: one waiver wire claimed this week. Yeah. I mean when

126
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: he's played in the past, he's not dynamic. But he's

127
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: the forty Niners running back, right. I think it's pretty

128
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: clear that he's going to be the league. Yeah, but

129
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: I've fallen for that trick. Before they had some dude

130
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: I hadn't heard of, was an undrafted rookie free as

131
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: all he did those play specialties. Even after the Elijah

132
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: Missis injury, deebos Russia's went up, Yeah, which I don't

133
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,559
Speaker 1: think that's what they want to do ideally, And Davis

134
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: Price was inactive because he probably can't play special teams. No,

135
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Now he'll move up to the

136
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: number two spot. He should be rostered. That's what I'm

137
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: gonna say, is I assume that's the way it's gonna

138
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: go unless Davis Price looks good. He but even last

139
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: year they when when everybody assumed that you know, when

140
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,119
Speaker 1: when Mitchell missed some games and he missed he missed

141
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: games last year, and this goes back to the whole

142
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: why you don't just take a running back. Well, you

143
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: can get one in the late rounds, like quite Elijah

144
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: Mitchell did last year. All right, but is there any

145
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: staining power? Right? He missed games last year and when

146
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: that happened, Wilson ended up being the guy over everybody

147
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: else that they had. I think they trust Wilson, which

148
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: goes is all you need to know. But Davis priced

149
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: he's more talented than Wilson. Yeah, that doesn't always, but

150
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: he could go past him during this stretch. Wilson started

151
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: four games last year and each one of those games

152
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: he had at least thirteen rushing attempts in that in

153
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: that offense. So I'm sure I have at least thirteen

154
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, I mean he's he's probably if you

155
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: do pick him up, he's probably good for a flex play. Yeah,

156
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: maybe a little better because they got They've got Seattle

157
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: this week at home, so it's not a bad matchup.

158
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: The final guy. Here's if if I guarantee in in

159
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh centric leagues, he has not owned if you listen

160
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: to this show, he has not owned. But j Lem

161
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: Warren has only owned him one point three percent of leagues.

162
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot of guys that we've been banging the Yeah,

163
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: we've been banging the drum though that he's the handcuff.

164
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: If he got right, he played every snap in in

165
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 1: uh the fifth quarter and over time, you know, and

166
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: he spelled Nagy a little bit. Even before that, when

167
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: Najy was healthy, he played right, which is low for

168
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: him compared to last year. Yeah. I mean it's early

169
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: in the season and they're trying to see what Warren

170
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: can do. And as Mike Tomlin said today, didn't pet

171
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: down his leg. Uh. And I'm not suggesting, you know,

172
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: Harris is any higher chance of getting injured than anyone

173
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: but backs get injured, right, Jalen Warren should be in

174
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: fantasy leagues, but he should have he should have already

175
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: been exactly. Yeah. Uh. At wide receiver Robby Anderson has

176
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: owned in thirty seven point five percent of leagues. One

177
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: good game, one big play. I'm not ready to say

178
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: that it wasn't like it was he did nothing else

179
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: he did. He was in the doghouse of the fantasy

180
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: world way too deep. Yeah, you know, he's not a

181
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 1: bad player, but now all of a sudden, I'm not

182
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 1: ready to say, oh, I'm gonna put him as my

183
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver three and some Carolina just they they couldn't

184
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: stop the Browns from running the football and so they

185
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: only had twenty seven pass attempts in the game. Mentioned

186
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: McCaffrey only had fourteen touches period. So they just didn't

187
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: have the ball a lot. No, I don't know what

188
00:09:58,080 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: their time possession was, but I know they lost the

189
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 1: battle badly. Yeah, I mean, the Browns had over two

190
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: yards rushing in that game. They just never had the football.

191
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: The fact that that game was close to begin with

192
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: was because Robbie Anderson touchdown. But I'm not scrapping Carolina's

193
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: offense or no. No, but if you again, if you've

194
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: got a dead spot on your roster, somebody well save

195
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: him for down road. Robbie Anderson should probably be rosters.

196
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: He's a starting wide receiver, right, He's a true wide

197
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 1: receiver to In the NFL, Curtis Samuel owned an eight

198
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: point four percent of leagues. I'm I'm kind of in

199
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,319
Speaker 1: Do you trust him though? Of course not. But he's

200
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: the guy that you you pick him up, you put

201
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: him in the lineup, and he leaves in the second

202
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: quarter of the hamstring. Absolutely could be true. But I've

203
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: seen that show before. But they've invested in him, They've

204
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: stuck with them. Well then they drafted the first round receiver.

205
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: But he's a good player. I mean, if I have

206
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: an open him spot, I'm putting acclaim. He's really hard

207
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: to put the It's kind of like what you're saying,

208
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: it's a lot easier to pick come up then it

209
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: just put him in then and put that check on

210
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: Sunday morning, you know, like, yeah, we'll put this one.

211
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: Would you rather have him or would you rather have

212
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: this next guy who's only owned him one point seven

213
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: percent a league. Donovan People's Jones get eleven targets in

214
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: that game to other people Joes, I think so too.

215
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: I think he's the two. He might be the one.

216
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 1: He might be the one. I don't care what they're paying.

217
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 1: I'm not impressed with the mari. Yeah you know, I'm

218
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: in a joke fan. But they didn't use him at all.

219
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 1: I mean they ran the ball. Time back to the

220
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: conversation with that, But um, People's Jones is big and

221
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 1: talented and he never leaves the field. Right. Here's the

222
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: thing that you need to look at when you were

223
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: scanning the waiver wear this week. Usage and we're talking

224
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: about usage. It's running for running backs, it's it's carries

225
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: and catches. I don't even care how many snaps of

226
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: running back plays. If he's on the field and they're

227
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: using him and he only places, he placed twenty snaps.

228
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,079
Speaker 1: But every time he's on the field, he's involved. He's

229
00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: involved somehow. Okay, that's fine. For wide receivers, I want targets.

230
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: I'm not looking at oh this guy again. Robby Anderson

231
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: had four catches for a hundred yards. Okay, but how

232
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: many targets did he have? We had four targets. Okay,

233
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: that's not sustainable. Donovan's people, Jones getting eleven targets, catches

234
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: my like, gets my attention. I don't have it in

235
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 1: front of me. But here's a Steelers example. Is Pickens

236
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: ran a route. I jotted this one down this morning.

237
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: He ran around a ninety two percent of Trabsky's dropped

238
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: backs and he was targeted what three or four times? Well,

239
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna come and things. He's on the field. He

240
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: is on the field running routes when they drop back.

241
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: That's all you need to know, all right, he's playing.

242
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: It's not like, oh, well this you know, it's not

243
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: like somebody's fourth receiver and he you know, he's he

244
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: catches three balls and you're like, oh, can pick that

245
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: guy up right, or he's out there for spot duty

246
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: and has a couple of big plays. Yeah, so People's

247
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 1: Jones is the guy, even though I don't love their

248
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: quarterback situation right now. If he's a two and what

249
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: happens when Watson comes back late in the year and

250
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you've got Donovan's People's Jones going

251
00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: down the stretch, that he might be one of my

252
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: favorite pickups we've mentioned thus far. I mean nine are

253
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: running backs aside because that's a media plug and play

254
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: type dude. But yeah, I also have this theory too

255
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: that there was a stretch of Michigan guys that do

256
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: better in the pros than they do in college. He

257
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: might be one of them. And type of guys. Zay

258
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: Jones is another one one point one percent usage, but

259
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: they gave him money. I think Marvin Jones is shot, Yeah,

260
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: and so Za is probably get nine targets. You know

261
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 1: they're gonna be losing different Yeah, I mean it's the

262
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: same very much. You know, if you liked Christian Kirk

263
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: and I did. Oh yeah, yeah, you gotta like Za

264
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: Jones just because of the usage. Yeah, they'll be similar,

265
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: and you like Lawrence He's gonna throw the ball to somebody. Yeah.

266
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:47,839
Speaker 1: Side note there, we were talking about a t N

267
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: and Robinson yesterday. I didn't see this live, but a

268
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: t N dropped the shirt touchdown past two, which didn't

269
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: exactly Corey Davis nine targets, cut six of the six

270
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: of nine targets for seventy seven yards. Again, you're gonna

271
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 1: see Joe Flacco out there for the first month, at

272
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: least the first month of the year. He's gonna go

273
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: to the guy that he feels comfortable, knows, and hey,

274
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: I know this. This guy knows where he's going to be.

275
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 1: That's yeah, rookie, that's Corey Davis and I just starting

276
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: NFL receiver. Yeah, if you get a wide receiver spot

277
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: open Corey David, you could do worse than Corey David

278
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: could do worse. He should be in leagues. Um My problem,

279
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: which is obvious, is I really like all three of

280
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: those receivers for the real world, but they cancel each

281
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: other out and they're in a dreadful offense, you know, like,

282
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: but again they're going to be behind. Oh yeah quite

283
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: a bit. I mean I own Elijah More all over

284
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: the place. Yeah yeah, I don't know if I'm on

285
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: board with this next one. Julio Jones is owned inte

286
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 1: point four percent of leagues, And I understand Chris Goblin's

287
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: out with a hamstring injury, and everyone watched that game

288
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: Sunday night. He looked five. Yeah, he's not a burner anymore.

289
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: I mean we know that. I don't think he's gonna last.

290
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: They gave him a handoff or two that was kind

291
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: of encouraging. But I mean if I picked him in

292
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: the last round, I try to trade him right now. Yeah,

293
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: I probably try to do that as well. But you

294
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: could also make the argument that, well, okay, so maybe

295
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: he's the new Gronk. He kind of is. He sits

296
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: down in the zones and he boxes dudes out and

297
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: he may catch some touchdowns, although Evans kind of an

298
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: apolized that role to um d J. Shark is owned

299
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: in amazingly. He wasn't drafted hardly. I mean, they gave

300
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: him money. Jamison Williams is not coming back. Anytime soon.

301
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: Deep threat targets last week. Yeah, I mean he starts

302
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: for just by any team in the league. His woes

303
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville weren't necessarily his fault, so I think he's

304
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: very undervalue. Definitely some wide receivers on that list that

305
00:15:54,040 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: you look at. Yeah, uh, tight end Tyler Higbye only

306
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: owned in forty nine point eight percent of leagues. He

307
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: got nine targets in that game last Thursday. He didn't

308
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: do much with it, but he got nine targets, right,

309
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: I mean everyone saw they targeted Cup eight thousand times,

310
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: but Higbie was the two. Yeah, you know, and if

311
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: you're the two in that offense, you'll be fine. Much

312
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 1: to the chagrin of Allen Robinson. Yeah, I mean I

313
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: expect that to change, you know, but Higbie is trusted

314
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: and you wonder, you know, when Van Jefferson comes back

315
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: as well, how that changes things. That dynamic is a

316
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: weird one. Yeah, But tight end sometimes you have to

317
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: live week to week and he probably won't hurt you. Um,

318
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: Hayden Hurst, he impressed me in the game. Yeah, yeah,

319
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: and he got He's only owned in nineteen point five

320
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: percent of leagues. He ran routes on well, I mean

321
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: they ran ninety plus plays, so he was running a

322
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: lot of routes in that game, and they threw him

323
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: the football. Now part of that was because Higgins is out,

324
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: you know, but still they threw him the football and

325
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: he made some place and they chose to go get

326
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: him in the in the off season two and gave

327
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 1: him a litt a contract, and I mean he's not

328
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: a throw away. Yeah. Um, just some other fantasy news here.

329
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 1: It looks like Keenan Allen not looking great to play

330
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,439
Speaker 1: on Thursday night. I don't think that surprises anybody in

331
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: that Thursday game. Um, how awesome is it we get

332
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: Chiefs Chargers in a few days. That's fantastic the ft.

333
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm just looking through some news here. The forty Niners

334
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 1: have added Marlon Mack to the roster. Yeah, to the

335
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: practice squad. I should say he's on the practice squad.

336
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: I guess that. Yeah. I mean I wasn't a fan

337
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: of him on his best day, but I was still

338
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: shocked that he wasn't a football player. Uh. Going back

339
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: to the Keenan Allen news, So DeAndre Carter was the

340
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: guy who kind of replaced Allen in the game, not

341
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: not Josh Palmer. Palmer played a lot though, but he's

342
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: not a slot right. Palmer is more than Mike Williams type.

343
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: They didn't use Mike Williams and they can. Um you

344
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: expect that to change this week. But whatever. It's also

345
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: one of my favorite sleeper type tight ends. Yeah, and

346
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: I think he helps with Keenan Allen. Now, but you know,

347
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: if you're if you're a week this week, do you

348
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 1: pick up Josh Palmer DeAndre Carter? Not DeAndre Carter? Yeah,

349
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: I can't go there either. Palmer should probably already be

350
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: in your league. He's a borderline probably guy. Yeah. I

351
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: mean he could go out this week and have you

352
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: know six for eight. Oh yeah, yeah, No, I think

353
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: Palmer should be in the league. Like Palmer to me

354
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: versus people just Jones is a question. Yeah. I mean

355
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 1: I think he's like at that level, probably rather have

356
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: people as young, probably because he has the more, he

357
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 1: has a clear path to much, but he's doesn't have

358
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: the Keenan Allen. It's in some ways that have actually

359
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 1: helps people's Jones. The Cooper's there. Cooper is going to

360
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 1: get attention, so that may be what happened in that game.

361
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 1: I have people to treat him like a one, even

362
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: though I don't think he's a one. Yeah. Uh, looking

363
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: at some other injury news here time Montgomery placed on

364
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 1: injured reserve for the New England Patriots, who the Steelers

365
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: play this week. Uh, that's big news for Jane Damien

366
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: Harris or Mondrie Stevenson. See, Stevenson is a guy I

367
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 1: invested in heavily and like the six or seventh rounds

368
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: something like whatever, wherever he was going and with the

369
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: assumption that he was going to catch passes. His usage

370
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: last week was bad. And you know, Harris got his

371
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,439
Speaker 1: normal usage. Montgomery. I think the number he cut the

372
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 1: touchdown pass, he got the touchdown, but I think they

373
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 1: twelve third down plays and Montgomery was out there for eleven. Yeah,

374
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 1: Like that's not so good. Stevenson will be that guy now, yeah,

375
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 1: or they'll pick up the next James White. Well they

376
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: get they get Pierre Strong Rosty trust him as a

377
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,439
Speaker 1: receiver though, yeah, well they did. They trust him as

378
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 1: a pass blocker. That's the key. UM. Panthers placed Andre

379
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: Roberts on injury reserve. That doesn't really Um. The Chiefs

380
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 1: place Trent McDuffie on injury reserve. Speaking of that, the

381
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: slut cornerback spots. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it might be better

382
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: for the Palmer Williams this week situation. Um, the Rams

383
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 1: placed Karen Williams on injured reserve with an ankle injury.

384
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: Remember they held him out in a preseason game too,

385
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: because they had a plan for him. Yeah. I think

386
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 1: they really liked them. I guess that's better for Henderson

387
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 1: and Acres. If it's just the two of them involved,

388
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 1: it's you know, yeah, still a little foggy right now.

389
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: How about this one? The Colts waived Rodrigo blanket Ship.

390
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 1: He missed missed a forty two yard or in overtime

391
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: and booted two different kickoffs out of bounds. That was enough.

392
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: They're working out Josh Lambeau, matthew Wright, the former Steeler. Um,

393
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 1: that's why you pay Boswell, folks. You don't want to

394
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: be that team that is now trying out Josh Lambeau,

395
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And nothing Colts Evan had

396
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: to live in that. I mean they had Vinetieri there

397
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: for Yeah, Vintieri was actually a cult longer than he

398
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: was a Patriot. But he didn't kick off at the end.

399
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 1: But they just use him to kick field goals. Well,

400
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: now they're you know, now they're looking. Now they're looking,

401
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: look like they thought they had a guy, and now

402
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: they don't trust anymore. He's out. Yeah, um Lovey Smith

403
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 1: said that the plan was for Damian Pierce to get

404
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: more plays than he did. That was a weird situation

405
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: because Rex burke Head got more run in playing time

406
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 1: than Damian Pierce. I don't know why the game script

407
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: would dictate that they were winning. They were winning, and

408
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: you would think Pierce should be the guy, But I

409
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: don't think that's tremendous news. Rex burke Head out snapped Pierce.

410
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 1: Seventy two. Is Rex Burkhead somebody you should pick up?

411
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: That kind of tells us you should. I mean, I

412
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: think he's going to be the receiving back and he's

413
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 1: hapfitely the more trusted guy right now. Ya um. Pete Carroll,

414
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: in addition to saying that Jamal Adams has a serious

415
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: knee injury that will require surgery. Yeah uh, he said,

416
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker will play in Week two against forty. I

417
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: mean I'm not starting either one of those backs yet. Yeah.

418
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 1: Be nice to have some clarity. Vikings, said coach Kevin

419
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 1: O'Donnell said IRV Smith wasn't involved in the team's offense

420
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: in week one by design. Yeah, that's a weird one.

421
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: He was another one's kind I'm on my sleeper. If

422
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: you're put on tight end type boos, catch bass, didn't

423
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 1: catch a bass? Yeah, and then of course I'm given out,

424
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: given another week. Yeah, I mean maybe they go back

425
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: to it this week, but they didn't need to throw

426
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 1: the ball whole lot and worked out well, right, k

427
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: J Osborne's with a guy. I mean, he's he's a

428
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 1: he's god. Yeah, he's a good play um. Dak Prescott

429
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 1: h surgery today. Jerry Jones not placing him on I R.

430
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: Well he's gonna be the final say yeah, good luck

431
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: with that, jare Um. And meanwhile McCarthy's like, well, we're

432
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: looking at through the roll of decks of available type

433
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and Sean Payton's like looking for a home in

434
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 1: Dallas as we speak. Probably, Yeah, they come from two

435
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: different worlds between the head coach and ownership there. Yeah,

436
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: not a great situation in Big d So what's the ramifications? Like,

437
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: if you have LAMB, you're starting? Yeah, you have to

438
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: are you starting? Schultz I don't think you can started,

439
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: probably from where you drafted him. You drafted Schultz as

440
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 1: you're number one tight end, even though you took him

441
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 1: in like the six or seventh round. You pick up

442
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: a Higbie or an Everett or somebody like that over

443
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: Schultz as a starter, or I probably want to see

444
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 1: how we're a young quarterback tight ends or typically that's

445
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 1: not so bad. Yeah, how about Paul Ard and Zeke Um?

446
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you're gonna you gotta, you gotta play Zeke

447
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: Pollards you're probably not playing. The question is gonna be

448
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 1: what do you do with Gallup when he because he

449
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: might be back this week is soon. Yeah, I don't

450
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 1: think you can play. Yeah, you probably have to wait

451
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 1: and see. We both like him a lot, but even

452
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: on his best day, he's not a wide receiver too right,

453
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: He's more of a three flex type guy you know now.

454
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: But Russia, he has started one game for them last year,

455
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: one in Minneapolis through fore yards, and he was in

456
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: that game. But there's obvious concerns there. Absolutely. Yeah, Um,

457
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: looking back at the stuff from my last night's game,

458
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 1: no catches for kJ Hamler. You got one target in

459
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: that game. He's not very strange game, by the way, Yeah,

460
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,479
Speaker 1: Noah fan had three had four targets, only three catches

461
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: for sixteen yards. He's not even a full time player

462
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: for UM Albert. Oh we wanted to watch that. Six targets,

463
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: five catches for thirty three yards. I don't know how,

464
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: Nathaniel Hacker. This goes to your point about young head

465
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: first time head coaches. You're paying your quarterback. You just

466
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: gave up the whole franch two fifty million dollars. You

467
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: traded picks to get him. It's fourth and five, and

468
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: you're cool with a sixty four yards You're cool sending

469
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 1: your kicker out there for a sixty four yarder and

470
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: you're not playing in Denver. Yeah, yeah, you're if it

471
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: was a fifty yard er. I think it's a wrong choice. Yeah,

472
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,120
Speaker 1: and be treated like it was. Oh he's just kicked

473
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: going out to kick a forty five yard field going

474
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 1: to win this? Yeah? Right? I mean, is there a

475
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 1: eight percent chance that all goes through the uprights and twelve?

476
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: You know, whatever it is, it's low. It's way way

477
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: below fifty. What do you think of the usage with

478
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: the other guys. I love that Javante Williams got that

479
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: many targets. I'm not sure that's how I would have

480
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,199
Speaker 1: designed offense. You know with Wilson, Um Judy had a

481
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: big play. This is always said it on my podcast earlier.

482
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: If you look at the box score, it looked a

483
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,120
Speaker 1: lot better for Denver than watching the game. It was disjointed.

484
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: You know, a lot of penalties the um it looked

485
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: like they were all new and hadn't played much in

486
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:33,360
Speaker 1: the preseason, and the crowd noise was given them problems

487
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: and false starts. Shocking. Yeah, maybe there is some valid

488
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: ability to preseason guys. Um. I didn't think Wilson played great.

489
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: You know Gino Actually that's the takeaway, Okay, Yeah, like

490
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: as late as d K went and drafts, maybe you

491
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: gotta steal there. I know he didn't put a seven targets.

492
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: He caught all seven of them, but he only right.

493
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: But Gino probably outplayed Wilson, Like, I don't know if

494
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: he's gonna be an anchor. What about Will Dislie? Are

495
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: you in on Will Dislie? You know you've never been

496
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: a Will Dislikes more of a blocker. Yeah. Three catches

497
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: for forty three yards in a touchdown? Yeah, I know,

498
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: I know they like him. They gave him money to um. Yeah,

499
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: Judy didn't really distinguish itself. Gino Smith was yards and

500
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: two touchdowns and they won the game. They'll take that

501
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: all day long. Yeah, that's exactly what they want. It was.

502
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: It was kind of the same game that Trabiski had.

503
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: They just don't don't lose it. Yeah, yeah, you know,

504
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: go out there and don't and don't lose this game

505
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 1: and we'll be in at the end and take our chance.

506
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 1: And that's what they did and they want. Yeah, Wilson

507
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: was two for thy yards and they didn't let him

508
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 1: go out there and try to win the football game.

509
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 1: I mentioned Javonte getting all those targets, which is great,

510
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,400
Speaker 1: but Gordon Um got more carries. He got more carries. Yeah,

511
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,360
Speaker 1: and he looks fine too. Yeah, that's going to continue

512
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 1: to be it's going to continue to be like that.

513
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 1: I think I would imagine. Unfortunately, if you drafted Javonte

514
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,199
Speaker 1: Williams early, you're gonna have to live with that all

515
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: year long. If he's getting targets, wonderful, but he's not.

516
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 1: He's not swift, No, he's not. Yeah, did you miss
