Florio and Lakwan Jones and Laqwan. 5 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 1: I just have to start with the question, why do 6 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: you look like you've got in a cartoon brawl? 7 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? 8 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 3: I got stopped today by Seth's freaking roll and some 9 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 3: good morning football this morning, very very early in the 10 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,639 Speaker 3: morning today. This is how my day is starting right 11 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 3: here with a stop moon from seth freaking' roll. 12 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 2: Stop. 13 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: You did actually put together pretty fire video of Seth 14 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: being in studio at GMFB. It's floating around on the 15 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: socials right now. But I love the fact that your 16 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: k fabe is taking two band aids and putting them 17 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: in an X on the side of your like like 18 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: you lost video punch out or something. 19 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 2: You Roan Rens. You got a lot common now see 20 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 2: him punk too. 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 3: And my wife wasn't very happy about how Steph Rown's 22 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 3: actually acquired that belt. So yeah, the wife was a 23 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 3: little so. 24 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: Then you so you get stomped out. His punishment that doesn't. 25 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 3: Because I tried to confront him about it and like, 26 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 3: you know, be my wife's honor, you know, and then 27 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 3: ended up with me getting stopped in it. 28 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: Get your head dribbled like it said Spaulding on it 29 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: great anyway, like Travis Hunter, like Travis Hunter, Wick calib 30 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: Johnson in preseason. But that's fair, all right. We have 31 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: preseason week two coming up. We're gonna talk about a 32 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: handful of the games, not every single one, but we'll 33 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: talk about some things, some questions that we feel like 34 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: we may have, and maybe some guys that we are 35 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: keeping an eye on. But first, a couple of news 36 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: headlines to dive into. One in Kansas City just broke 37 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: maybe a couple hours before we started doing this show. 38 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: Rashi Rice is scheduled to have a discipline hearing on 39 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: September thirtieth. Now the date is significant because that is 40 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: after week four. We're all expecting at some point that 41 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: Rice is going to be disciplined, that he is going 42 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,839 Speaker 1: to be suspended for his traffic shall we say no 43 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,519 Speaker 1: nos from a couple of years ago, I mean Florie, 44 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: knowing that we're gonna go well into the season before 45 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: the hearing even happens. But knowing that there's still potentially 46 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: an end season suspension coming, how do you approach Russhi 47 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: Rice in drafts? 48 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 2: He's he's gonna and look, I wanted to be a 49 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 2: Rashi Rice guy this year, but with this, he's gonna 50 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 2: have to start falling. Like right now, his ADP's in 51 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 2: the fourth round. There's no way I'm taking him in 52 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 2: the fourth round. I think he'd have to fall to 53 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 2: like the sixth seventh round, and I'm not expecting that. 54 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: So I don't know if I'm gonna have a lot 55 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 2: of Rashi Rice. The issue is the first couple of 56 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 2: weeks he's gonna be out there, but those are gonna 57 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 2: be his first games back from a knee injury. So 58 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 2: if it takes him a couple of games to look 59 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 2: like Rashie Rice again, once he starts to get back 60 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 2: into the swing of things, he could be taken from you. 61 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: This is a lot like the Ezekiel Elliott situation. I 62 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 2: know this at this point, it's like six seven years ago, 63 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: but he got suspended for eight games in the middle 64 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 2: of this season. And that is my fear with Rashid 65 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: Rice because we don't even know how long this suspension 66 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 2: is gonna be could be four, could be six, could 67 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: be eight. So because of all of that, I'm probably 68 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 2: gonna pass on Rashi Rice, but it makes me want 69 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: to get in on Xavier Worthy. Like when I do 70 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 2: my ranking update today, Worthy will probably leap frog Rice 71 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: in my rankings. 72 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: So lakwan two Florio's point, Rice's ADP is going to fall. 73 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: We're not really sure how far it's gonna fall, how 74 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: much people are going to back off of him. So hypothetically, 75 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: is there a round he could fall two that would 76 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: make him attractive to you? 77 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 3: Probably that sixth seventh round, Like this is where the 78 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 3: Jacobe myersers are living in the in the draft, and 79 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 3: like there's the question marks with some of the players 80 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: that are unproven, some rookies are down there. So I 81 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 3: do want to acquire him because all I know in 82 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 3: the back end of the season, I want him on 83 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 3: my team. Like when it starts to get towards the 84 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 3: Fantasy playoffs, I want to be able to say I 85 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 3: have Rice coming off the bench to give me a 86 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 3: little bit more reinforcements going into the playoffs, and look, 87 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 3: he'll come back, like I would say after the eight 88 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: game suspension. I think he gets the max because if 89 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 3: we remember a pre draft, like there was already an incident, 90 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 3: you know, like there was already question marks about him, 91 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 3: So like this isn't less something that you know the 92 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 3: NFL is going to take lightly. So I do think 93 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 3: he gets that eight game max, and then he will 94 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 3: returned back in Week thirteen against Dallas, which I think 95 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 3: it's a favorable matchup. And I do think that the 96 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 3: injury as well. Coming into this season, like the first 97 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 3: four games like those are up and down games, man, 98 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 3: like you got one in Brazil and like it's that's 99 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 3: a weird game. And he's still hasn't been really proven 100 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 3: to be like back back on like game speed on 101 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: the field. 102 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: So my immediate concerns are, I mean, hopefully ideally he 103 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: has the hearing on September thirtieth, and that the league 104 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 1: makes a decision shortly thereafter, right, that they don't drag 105 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: this out for another week or so, because then you're 106 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 1: talking about after week five, then you're talking about serving 107 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: a suspension. The other big problem is that few, if 108 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: any fantasy leagues have a suspension slot. Right, you got 109 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: an ir slot where a guy is hurt and uninjured reserve. 110 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: You could put a guy there and you know, go 111 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: and get somebody else off the waiver wire and it 112 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: doesn't count against your roster spots. If Rashi Rice is 113 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: suspended and you've drafted him, you're just holding a spot 114 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 1: for him for however many weeks. And yeah, if everything 115 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: is great, you know, if nobody gets hurt, everybody's playing well, 116 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: it's not a big deal to just sit there and 117 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: sort of way on him to get back to you. 118 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: We know that ain't life, right. We know that unfortunately, 119 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: somebody's gonna get hurt. Somebody is just not going to 120 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: pan out the way you thought in the preseason. You're 121 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: going to have to make waiver wire moves. And that's 122 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: when after holding on to Rice for three weeks, four weeks, 123 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: five weeks, then you really are stuck trying to make 124 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: a decision of can I afford to wait on him, uh, 125 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: you know, or do I have to sort of cut 126 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: bait And then you know, fear that somebody else in 127 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,239 Speaker 1: your league scoops him up. He comes back and turned 128 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: out to be Throshet Rice. We thought he could be. 129 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 2: A big difference real quick. Is to your point, Margus, 130 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 2: like buys are weeks five through fourteen. When a player 131 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 2: suspended to start the year, you can you can navigate 132 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: those early weeks because there's no buys, but those bench 133 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 2: spots are going to be real valuable when those buys 134 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 2: start hitting all season long. 135 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 3: Whoever drafted Rice in the leagues that I am, I'm like, 136 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 3: oh my god, you should just drop him, man. 137 00:06:55,200 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: Just drop zombie on your bench. Trade dirty, try to 138 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: trade for him. 139 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 3: Charity this year. I'm being so dirty this year in 140 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 3: all my leagues. So league may t watch out because I. 141 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: Know because inevitably there's gonna be somebody who's sitting there 142 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: at like three and four trying to fight and make 143 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: the playoffs, and maybe they got Rashi Rice on their bench. 144 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: And that's when you can be like, hey, you know, 145 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: I you help me, you scratch my back, I'll scratch 146 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: yours like you know, I'll trade. I'll trade you tomorrow 147 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: if you can get me. Rashi Rice helped me down 148 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: the playoffs stretch. So yeah, for sure, I'm in Cincinnati 149 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: Bengals offensive coordinator saying Chase Brown is a top ten 150 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: running back in the NFL. In fantasy circles, Chase Brown 151 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: as going as the RB twelve. So I ask you, 152 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: Lakwan Jones, are we undervaluing Chase Brown based on the 153 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: opinion of Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Damn Pitcher. 154 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 2: I think we are. 155 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 3: And it's not like we are like doing it on 156 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 3: purpose though, because there's some running backs ahead of him 157 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 3: that we could say our top ten running backs like 158 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 3: a Chan, Josh Jacobs, Kenneth Walker, and like I do 159 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 3: think when it comes to rankings, like I looked at 160 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 3: my rankings when I saw this, I'm like, Wow, he 161 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 3: is at my RB eleven, So I think I do 162 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 3: need to move him up because we're looking at a 163 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: guy that was on pace from week nine and on 164 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 3: thirteen hundred yards. If he stayed with that same energy, 165 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 3: with that same usage, and like from week nine and on, 166 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 3: he was the RB four, averaging twenty Fantasy points per game. 167 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 3: So how I'm looking at this is like, hey, this 168 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 3: is the same situation. I mean, Taj Brooks does look decent, 169 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 3: but he ain't the real threat here where Chase Brown 170 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: can get this max workload and this usage to where 171 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 3: he can crack that top ten, top five conversation. 172 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 1: Florida, I know you talked up Chase Brown on Fantasy 173 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: Live on Thursday. I know you like him. Are you 174 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: willing to put him in your Do you have him 175 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: in your top ten? If not, are you willing to 176 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: put him in your top ten? 177 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's in my top ten. He's my RB nine 178 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 2: as of right now, and I've been considering pushing him up. 179 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: The names just ahead of him are like cmc Ashton 180 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 2: Gent and Bucky Irving. I don't know if I'll rank 181 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 2: him ahead of those guys, but at cost, I like 182 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: him the most of that bunch. And to Laquan's point, 183 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 2: like it took him like about a month to take 184 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: over last year, but from what he did, he was 185 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: on pace to score the fifth most, like his full 186 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: season pace would have made him the RB five. So yeah, 187 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 2: I think you can make him a top ten running 188 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 2: back and there's still room for him to grow. 189 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: I feel like the longer the Trey Hendrickson situation goes on, 190 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: the more the Bengals offensive players are rising in ADP. Yes, right, 191 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: I mean, because I think even with Hendrickson, the Bengals 192 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: defense isn't going to be great, but at least when 193 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: he's there, no, he's gonna get out of the quarterback. 194 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,559 Speaker 1: He's gonna get pressures, he's gonna get sacks, and maybe 195 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: that helps out a little bit. If you don't have 196 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: hendrickson there, you're forcing the issue with the line of scrimmage. 197 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: This defense is gonna get shredded. And I think that's 198 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: the reason, like Chase Brown is rising. I mean, Jamar 199 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 1: Chase is already the one oh one like that. He 200 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: can't get me higher than that. But to Higgins, I 201 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: feel like his ADP is coming up. I just feel 202 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: like everybody's just like, you know what. 203 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: It go to Key looked like Tom Brady and was like, 204 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 2: you know what, Yeah, they're going to have to score. 205 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely, And it doesn't help, you know, with Shamir 206 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 3: Stewart uh tackling or making contact with Burrows. So there 207 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 3: was a whole scrap about that. Did you guys see that. 208 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: I didn't see any I haven't seen any video, but 209 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: I have read stories. Achise, Yeah, no, I man, no, 210 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: you do not do not touch the franchise. You do 211 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: not do that. So hopefully hopefully Stewart learned his lesson 212 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: over that one. Start diving into some of these Week 213 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: two of the preseason previews. Now look understanding it's week 214 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: two of the preseason. A lot of teams will play 215 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: their starters. We're not gonna see guys a whole long time. 216 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: There's not a ton we can necessarily glean from it, 217 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: but we are using data points, right It's another data point. 218 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: It's another piece of information we can sort of use 219 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: to make our decisions going forward as we get further 220 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: into draft season. Sartis and Seahawks. That game you can 221 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 1: see on NFL Network Friday at seven pm Eastern. Lakwanum, Matthew, 222 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 1: because I know how you feel about the Seahawks, and 223 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: you know how they have your favoritiest wide receiver of 224 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: all time Cooper Cup. Now in so a lot of 225 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: drum beats out of Seattle that Zach Charboney could end 226 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: upth passing Kenneth Walker for that starting job. I mean, 227 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: do you could you imagine that happening? Should it happen? 228 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: And are you maybe taking a discount on sharbon Ay 229 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: right now? 230 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 3: I don't think he could take over because when Kenneth 231 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 3: Walker is healthy, charbon is on sideline, like we know, 232 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 3: kW can get really really busy with the opportunity, and 233 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 3: I think I look at him as a high end 234 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 3: like handcuff, like if I draft Kenneth Walker knowing his 235 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 3: injury history, where Zach Charboney is going in drafts, that's 236 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 3: a solid handcuff like area where in that range you're 237 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 3: looking at the Jaden blues of the world, like the 238 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: wood he marks his ADP now rising too, So like 239 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 3: I'd rather Zach Charbonnay when I know if Kenneth Walker 240 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 3: goes down, he'll be the guy that can have that 241 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,839 Speaker 3: RB one ceiling. So I do think that this is 242 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 3: Kenneth Walker's backfield, his own backfield, and if we look 243 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 3: at clink QBX offense with the Saints, it wasn't really 244 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 3: like a one to two punch between Jamal Williams and 245 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 3: ak Over there. So I do feel like this is 246 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: just his backfield until it's not. So Zach Charmony is 247 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 3: just gonna have to wait for his opportunity. 248 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: How about you, Floria, are you a sipping Charbonay this year? 249 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,599 Speaker 2: I agree with LQ. I think he's a fantastic handcuff, 250 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 2: but I think it takes an injury or something like that. 251 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker in announced zone run deep offense is something 252 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 2: I'm pretty excited about. And he's one of those running 253 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 2: backs in like the fifth sixth round that I like 254 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 2: to go after. Is not my favorite, but he is 255 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: one that I like to go after. But I do agree, Like, 256 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 2: if you have Kenneth Walker, I think you need to 257 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 2: handcuff him with Sharbenney. 258 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just I'm looking here right now, zach Scharbonay 259 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: going as the RB thirty nine, So. 260 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 3: Like that's fair baby. 261 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: That feels like early for a handcuff because he's going 262 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: ahead of guys like Najie Harris, Tank Bigsby, Rashad White, 263 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: Eye on Blue. You know, just I get the idea. 264 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: If you have Kay Walker, you probably do want to 265 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: handcuff him. It feels that feels like people are drafting 266 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: Sharbenay expecting him to have some standalone value. 267 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: But remember we were drafting Cream Hunting like that too, 268 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 3: Like I do look at that as a situation. Now, 269 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 3: I don't think they're going to be on the field 270 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 3: as much as cream Hunt Chubb, but who knows, Clint 271 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 3: Kilbick might get creative, you know. 272 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, except cream Hunt is like eleventy years old when 273 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: we did that, Like we should have known better. 274 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: But Kareem Hunt actually was good in the first year 275 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 3: in twenty seventeen with Chemist to Fancy, So I'm not 276 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 3: gonna knock them for that year, all. 277 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: Right, that's fair. Dolphins at Lions. I put this in 278 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: here mostly because I kept seeing the headlines about the Dolphins, 279 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: about Tua talking about how they were having such a 280 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: tough day and how the joint practices against the Lions 281 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: were not really going well for them. And we've talked 282 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: on this show about the Dolphins offense that really outside 283 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: of Devon ah Chan, it seems like a lot of us, 284 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: certainly us on this show, and I think a lot 285 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: of people across the fantasy space are kind of cool, 286 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: like not cool in a good way. They're cool on 287 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: the Dolphins parentheses derogatory just because you know, the vibes 288 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: seem bad. So I mean, after this week and Tua 289 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: saying things haven't been great, Floria, how much are you 290 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: on red alert with this Dolphins offense. 291 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 2: I've been saying this a lot this summer. It is 292 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 2: Devon a Chen or bust for me, because with Chen 293 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 2: we have seen that he can win as an explosive runner. 294 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 2: He averaged almost eight yards per carry as a rookie. 295 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 2: He had the most receiving Fantasy points of any running 296 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 2: back last year, so he could win in a number 297 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 2: of different ways. And last year I believe it was intentional. 298 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: The Dolphins completely abandoned the deep ball. They had Tua 299 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 2: getting the ball out of his hands in under two 300 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: point four seconds. Everything was just take your two steps 301 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 2: and just like, well it would be his left hand, 302 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 2: but just just get rid of it right like get 303 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 2: it to h get it to John new Smith. And 304 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 2: that's what led to Tyreek and Jalen Waddle being big 305 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 2: disappointments for Fantasy. I don't think those guys suddenly lost 306 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 2: all of their capabilities. I think they are still a 307 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 2: very talented duo, even though I worry if Tyreek is 308 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 2: starting to lose a step, but it doesn't matter if 309 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 2: they're not throwing the ball deep. I don't think these 310 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 2: guys are going to live up to expectation. I want 311 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 2: no parts of Tua, but I've been fading Tyreek and 312 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: Waddle and just going after a h hen but. 313 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 3: I know someone on this show feels a little different. 314 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 3: Oh my god, listen. I've been buying tickets to the 315 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 3: circus and as the show goes on, it gets a 316 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 3: little bit scarier soon as we get closer to the 317 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 3: third act into week one, I have a lot of 318 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 3: Tyrek kill and I'm just hoping and praying that I 319 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 3: got him add the value in that third round on 320 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 3: that turn and a lot of my drafts. But I 321 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 3: do feel like, you know, it's getting a little scary 322 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 3: over there, because it looks like things are falling apart 323 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 3: before we can even get to that point, Like the 324 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 3: defense is getting cooked all through practice. I've seen legit 325 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 3: probably like seventeen a mom Ron Saint Brown clips just 326 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 3: lossing and doing the most craziest circus catches on all 327 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 3: these dolphins secondary. And the crazy thing is you got 328 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 3: Isaac Tesla out there doing crazy out of the body 329 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 3: like experience catches, Like I'm. 330 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 2: Like, how did he even do that? 331 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 3: Like how's he? But it's like the dolphin and secondary 332 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 3: is a mess. The offense has its own circus going on. 333 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 3: Like it's getting scary over there in Miami. So lessen 334 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 3: the shares. 335 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 2: He looked, he looked like he went through it after 336 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: that practice yesterday, like he was crass, disheveled, and like, yoa, 337 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 2: I feel bad for the guy. Man. 338 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: I once working with a guy who, when he started 339 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: he started his job, would show up to work every 340 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: day dressed very nicely, like khaki's collared shirt. Everything was 341 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: pressed and whatever. He was in a very stressful position. 342 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: And after about nine months he stopped dressing like that, 343 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: and he started he started looking like a freshman on 344 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: his way to like an eight am science class. It 345 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: was like hair not combed, it was sweats in a 346 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: puffy coat. I'm like, you've gone through it, dude. That's 347 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,439 Speaker 1: kind of what Mike McDaniel is right now, right like 348 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,919 Speaker 1: he has gone through it in the last few years, 349 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: I know to The prevailing opinion is that he could 350 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: be the first coach fired this year, especially if the 351 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: Dolphins get off to a bad start. Hope not Yeah, hell, 352 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: I mean he's fun right, I mean, he's got great quotes. 353 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: He's very funny. I mean, he was supposed to be 354 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 1: sort of to the I mean, I mean he could. 355 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 2: I usually. 356 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: I mean some of these guys are not necessarily cut 357 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: out to be head coaches, but they're good coordinators. I 358 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: mean maybe McDaniel is one of those guys. I mean, 359 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: we never really know. 360 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: I do feel bad though, because like they could have 361 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: won the division a couple of years ago if they 362 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 2: were in any division not with Josh Allen. 363 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: You know, also if they were of course also if 364 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: they were in a division that where things didn't get cold, 365 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: right like if they yeah, if they GE's somehow. I 366 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: think it's somehow, you know, play games where it's not 367 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 1: below like sixty degrees, then they're fine. 368 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 2: Like that was still unfair. 369 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: That was that was kind of wrong. That was kind 370 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: of for sure. All right, we'll take a break, come back. 371 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: We got a few more games to previews. We get 372 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: through Week two of the preseason. That's coming up here 373 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast. Diving into some of 374 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: the Week two preseason games here on the show, Packers 375 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: at Colts. Anthony Richardson did not last long in the 376 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: first game, took a wicked sack and next thing, you know, 377 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: his pinky fingers making an unscheduled right turn. The talk 378 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: is that Daniel Jones is going to get the start, 379 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: but there is some hope maybe Richardson will be okay, 380 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: maybe he can get out there. We will see. But Foy, 381 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna ask you this because you are 382 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: I think of the three of us, the one who 383 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: still is most on board. I don't think we've all 384 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 1: jumped off, but I think you are more on board 385 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: than the rest of us. Like Lawan and I have 386 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: like one foot in the lifeboats. You're still hanging out 387 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: on the deck, you know, sipping a frosty drink. We're 388 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: waving you on, like, no, man, it's time to go. 389 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 1: Man here exactly, just standing on it as it's going 390 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: under going down. But I'll ask you, Florio, is this 391 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: potentially Anthony Richardson's last chance to win the Week one 392 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: starting job. 393 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you right now. I don't like the 394 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 2: way this question is worded at all. Why is it 395 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: his last show? 396 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: Because none of these dudes are going to play in 397 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: week three of the preseason, right. 398 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yes, the dress rehearsal her reports he was ahead 399 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 2: going into Week one. I know his pinky was going 400 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 2: like this way and that that's kind of on him. 401 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 2: He didn't see the defender. I know, like everyone broke 402 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 2: down the video and was like, he's supposed to look 403 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 2: that way, throw that way. I get it, I get it. 404 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 2: He's got work to do. The colts know he has 405 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 2: work to do, and he needs the reps, and I look, 406 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 2: I know you can't just throw away seasons in the NFL, 407 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 2: but when you take Anthony Richardson, you're taking him expecting 408 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: to sacrifice a season or two for his development because 409 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 2: where he can get to is ultimately so great. Like 410 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 2: I think a big mistake that a lot of teams 411 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 2: make nowadays is they give up on these cutes. Like 412 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 2: if the Colts give up on him, I think there's 413 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,919 Speaker 2: thirty maybe not thirty one because some teams have a 414 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 2: franchise guy, but there's like twenty other teams knocking on 415 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 2: their door being like, we'll take the shot on Anthony 416 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 2: Richardson because his upside is so high if you could 417 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,239 Speaker 2: develop him. So I continue to say it, like, I 418 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 2: think he should be the week one starter, And the 419 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 2: reports were that he had shown improvement in camp with 420 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: his touch and his play in the pocket and stuff. 421 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 2: So I think it's just a lot easier to go 422 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 2: from Richardson to Daniel Jones and you finally admit, okay, 423 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 2: this isn't working. But if you go to Daniel Jones 424 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 2: and you get off to a slow start, it's a 425 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 2: lot like what happened with Flacco last year. Then you 426 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 2: got of like got a tab between your legs. Go 427 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 2: back to Richardson, and it's not really showing confidence in him. 428 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 2: So I continue to think that he will be the 429 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 2: weak one starter. But I will I will be very 430 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 2: sad if I'm wrong, And I'll give you guys all 431 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,239 Speaker 2: the credit, because especially you, Lacan, I know you've been 432 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: on Daniel Jones higher than really anyone. 433 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know you love you love Daniel. Is this 434 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: a Jones thing? You got to stand up for the Joneses. 435 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 2: It's a Jersey. Jones is going down with the ship. 436 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 2: Riol is going down with the ship. 437 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 1: Bro. 438 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 3: I cannot get behind that. I just can't. It's gonna 439 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 3: be Daniel Jones man. That has to be at this 440 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 3: point because he cannot stay healthy. If he gets injured 441 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 3: in this game, just sign it off, pack it up, chief, 442 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: go ahead and clock out like it's it's going to 443 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 3: be a rap, Like this is his last chance to 444 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 3: be real, Like this is the last chance in a 445 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 3: preseason game in week two for Anthony Richson to step 446 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 3: up and show up and show out. We've been waiting 447 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 3: for this. Just put something out there that we could 448 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 3: just be cool, calm and collected going into Week one 449 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 3: having a healthy Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson debate. Okay, 450 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:56,360 Speaker 3: that's all I got. 451 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 2: What's it say though? If a guy who can't stay 452 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 2: held was reportedly beating the other guy, you know, like, 453 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 2: imagine if he gets the rest, he's a liability out 454 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 2: there if he can't protect hisself. 455 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 3: Like, man, that hit was brutal, Like he came up 456 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 3: throwing up gang if he gets hurt. 457 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 2: Like but but if he gets hurt, you're exactly where 458 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 2: you already would be if you start Daniel Jones. 459 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: I look, I'm I'm not gonna sit here and pretend 460 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: that like this is like a high level court. Part 461 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: of the reason it is an interesting quarterback competition is 462 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 1: because there's two guys who are sort of at the 463 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: same level. One we've seen. I think we've seen the 464 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 1: best of Daniel Jones, right that season. He had a 465 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: couple of years ago that got him paid. We've seen 466 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 1: the best of Daniel Jones. We still believe in Anthony 467 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: Richardson's potential, just he hasn't really come close to showing it. 468 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: I mean, this is like the race to see who's 469 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: the fastest turtle, right, Like you might be the fastest turtle. 470 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,719 Speaker 2: But you're still not Turtles are fast. 471 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: Hey, it's Thursday night. The turtle races at Brendan's tonight. 472 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: Everybody's meat down there. Let's go, let's go check out. 473 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 2: The thing about real quick. Like Daniel Jones' best season 474 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 2: was thirty two hundred yards and fifteen touchdowns, Like this 475 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 2: says not great. 476 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 3: He's shown us something that Anthony Richardson has not shown 477 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 3: us yet. 478 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 2: Upside. 479 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 3: We saw the upside in his rushing upside there availability 480 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: the US seasons was the top twelve quarterback, top ten. 481 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson upside was way higher and feel like if 482 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 3: he could stay on the field. 483 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: The Daniel Jones top twelve fantasies. There are some seasons 484 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,199 Speaker 1: that are just outliers where we'll look back here like this, 485 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,439 Speaker 1: you know the jamis thirty for thirty season, right, like 486 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 1: that's an outlier. The fact that he was still a 487 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: top five quarterback or whatever it was like that that 488 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: that radicalized me against current quarterback scoring, like that shouldn't happened. 489 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: There was the year I'd have to look it up. 490 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: There was the year where Jason Witten was like a 491 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 1: top ten tight end when all he did was catch 492 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: the ball and fall down like that's it. Like there 493 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: are just those seasons where like we looked back and like, okay, 494 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: yeah you finished in the top ten or top twelve, 495 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: but like did you really though? Did you really? 496 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 3: We keep saying that for Anthony Richardson, but that has 497 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 3: yet to happen, is my point though, Like the same 498 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 3: upside that we're looking for for Anthony Richardson, Daniel Jones 499 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 3: has done that. He's done it for us already, Like 500 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 3: we know what he is capable of, and he's in 501 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 3: a situation where his legs are his weapons. And I 502 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 3: think that deep ball only helps Michael Pittman, it only 503 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 3: helps A. D Mitchell, only helps Alex Pearce, it only 504 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 3: helps Shosh Downs as well. 505 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 2: He doesn't have a deep ball. 506 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, man, Daniel Jones has a upside deep ball. There 507 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 3: was an opportunity in twenty twenty two. 508 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 2: Not better than Anthony Richardson. 509 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: You keep saying the word no, No, I don't think that 510 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: means I think I think that word means what you 511 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: think it means, Like there's no, I don't think there's 512 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: a floor play. In my opinion, Yeah, he's the floor play. 513 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: He's not an upside play. There's no upside there, there is. 514 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 2: There is no What does outside of accuracy, what does 515 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones do better than Anthony Richardson on the football field. 516 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 2: He doesn't have a stronger arms. 517 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: But again, availability and upside are two very different things. 518 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: And and right now and that's fine, but don't confuse 519 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: that with upside. Anthony Richardson has upside. Daniel Jones has 520 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 1: perfect attendance. 521 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 3: Michael Pittman or Tyler Warren? Manager, when do you want 522 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 3: Daniel Jones as your starter? Should be the conversation. It's 523 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 3: not about the actual quarterback competition. Who do we want 524 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 3: Tyler Warren? Who do we want Josh Allas or Michael 525 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 3: Pittman to score us fantasy points on Sunday? 526 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: Don't just. 527 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: Floating. It's not sinking. 528 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 3: His boat may be all banged up, you know what, 529 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 3: band aids like holding it up, the bloating the water. 530 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,400 Speaker 3: But at the same time, there is opportunity there for benefit, 531 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 3: like for us as managers for the wide receivers. 532 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones is the architect of the Wandell Robinson like 533 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 2: a million targets for five hundred yards season is a guy. 534 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: That's why, LaQuan, that's not the flex you think it is. 535 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,439 Speaker 1: I really didn't think we're gonna have this line of 536 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: a conversation about the Colts quarterback situation. And I'm sorry 537 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: that I walked this down that path. That's my fault. 538 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I may be about to do it again. 539 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: I have no idea where this conversation is gonna go, 540 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: but I'm thinking out there, uh, Patriots at the Vikings 541 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 1: a lot of hype around JJ McCarthy, and look, I 542 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: I was sort of pleased to see what he did 543 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: last week. Not necessarily because I'm in on drafting JJ 544 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: McCarthy because I think he's gonna be meh in year 545 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: one and you'll just be frustrated, But I think what 546 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: it means potentially for the guys around him. Uh, Lakwan 547 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,479 Speaker 1: refreshed my memory. You're in on JJ McCarthy. Is there 548 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: anything else you need to see from him this week? 549 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 3: Not really like I feel like we need to worry 550 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 3: about his health because like it's getting to this point 551 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 3: now where injuries are starting to build up, and you know, 552 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 3: our guys are out there, they're doing all these amazing, 553 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 3: you know things on the practice fields like Treveon Henderson 554 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 3: like every beat reporter every ten seconds, and even with 555 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy, you know, going against Brian Flores is like 556 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 3: chaotic defense. So it's like all these things are starting 557 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 3: to build up where I just, you know, build this 558 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 3: chemistry in front of us in pre season, but with 559 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 3: Jefferson banged up right now, we're not going to be 560 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 3: able to see that, So it's not much I want 561 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 3: to see right now. Further from JJ McCarthy. 562 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 1: Are you willing Florio to take JJ McCarthy, like in 563 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: a redraft like two quarterback leagues? Yeah, I'm sure, Like 564 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: would you take if you decide to take two quarterbacks, 565 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: would you draft JJ. 566 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 2: McCarthy, Yeah, I think he brings enough upside, Like after 567 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: seeing Sam Darnold finish as a QB one in this system, 568 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 2: it's not about me loving JJ, right, it's about me 569 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 2: loving koc and and the weapons in this system. But uh, 570 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 2: it would have to be a specific build, right, Like 571 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 2: I don't know if i'd want to pair him, would 572 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 2: say like a justin fields because that doesn't really feel 573 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 2: like there's enough floor there. But like say, if my 574 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 2: QB one was someone that I felt good about the floor. 575 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: Then I'm throwing an upside dart on JJ McCarty. 576 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: The word of the day is upside. 577 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 2: That's a good movie with Kevin Hart. 578 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: I had no idea, trust I trust I never seen it. 579 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: I just had to take your word for it. Uh, 580 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: Chargers at Rams, Chargers at Rams. I'm I'm asking you this, Lakwan, 581 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: because this feels this feels like something you'd be into, 582 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: not about the Rams. Should we be paying attentions to 583 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: Arondez gadst in the se because this feels like and 584 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,959 Speaker 1: by way, our producer Gavin who's a big Chargers fans, 585 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: he's paying Atten to know what you're about to say. 586 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 3: Yes, the beaver borters love him, and you see on 587 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 3: Twitter the fantasy streets his name pops up every now 588 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 3: and again making big plays. And then I'm in on 589 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 3: him too. I think that with Will Ditsley there, Tyler Conklin, like, 590 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 3: we know who these guys are. But I think some 591 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 3: folks you know, might want to add him to the 592 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 3: watch list like in re draft leagues. I don't think 593 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 3: he's going to make like a media impact, but gradually 594 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 3: as the season goes on, you might see him make 595 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 3: more flashes, get more opportunity on the field. So that's 596 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 3: just how I'm looking at him right now this year. 597 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 3: But I am in dynasty heavily invested because like he 598 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 3: was going in the fourth round and most of these drafts, 599 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 3: and I think that's a great value for the upside 600 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 3: that he's in an offense where a tight end can 601 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 3: be fantasy relevant. 602 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: All right, I don't I mean that all sounds kind 603 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 1: of right, like you're just you're you're drafting and stashing 604 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: and seeing what comes about. I mean, I think that's 605 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: really all it is with Gadstan Maybe the more pressing 606 00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: issue u Florio. People love a mari and Hampton. I've 607 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: said this whole time that I'm just not I'm not 608 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: in on him at ADP because I kept saying, Naji 609 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: Harris still walks the earth. 610 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:08,719 Speaker 2: Now. 611 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: I know, obviously he had the fourth of July incident. 612 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: He's putting that snapchat videos where maybe one eye is 613 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: squinting in clothes, maybe the sun is in his eyes, 614 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: or maybe he's still yeah, on a pirate track. I 615 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: don't know. 616 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: Me and him are going down with that shit together. 617 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: Yes, So I've been saying, I was like, look, Naji 618 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: Harris is going to come back, He's going to play, 619 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: He's going to take opportunities away from Omari and Hampton, 620 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: and everybody's getting feel just unfulfilled. Greg Roman seemed to 621 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: verify that. He seemed to validate that when he said 622 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a rotation no matter what in fact 623 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: he said the days he said that the one running 624 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: back team or one running back offense is becoming like 625 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: a prehistoric creature. Knowing that, are you still okay with 626 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: Amar and Hampton in the fourth round? 627 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm actually coming around to Hampton because my fear 628 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 2: was Naji Harris, just like you and I thought early 629 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 2: in the year Naji would have a big role and 630 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 2: as the season went on he would Hampton and his 631 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 2: talent would win out over time. But if Nase's not 632 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 2: ready to start the year, that gives Hampton a runway 633 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 2: to just kind of become the firm RB one here. Now. 634 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 2: I do think there will be a rotation because every 635 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 2: team uses some combination of that nowadays. But if Harris 636 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 2: isn't ready for week one, the backup running backs are 637 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 2: who's who will People we thought would be good in 638 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 2: fantasy from the past, like Kamani Videll, Hassan Hoskins, stuff 639 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 2: like that. Like, none of those guys are eating into 640 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 2: the workload enough to ding Hampton, so getting him as 641 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 2: an RB two I love Rockett Sanders or Anderson, but 642 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 2: if he goes a little after him, I think that's 643 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 2: a perfect value. 644 00:32:55,200 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: All right, RB three, Jones, make your case for Rocket Sanders. Listen, 645 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: that is cool. 646 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 3: I think the AP is going to skyrocket after this 647 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 3: next preseason game. But I do think that, you know, 648 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 3: I'm taking the words, yeah boom, yeah, you got that. 649 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 3: I'm taking Greg Rouman's words because again, I do think 650 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 3: like he wants to keep his young running backs motivated 651 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 3: right now. So it's still camp, it's still preseason, so 652 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 3: he doesn't want to say, yeah, the RB one job 653 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 3: or the RB two job is locked up one hundred percent. 654 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 3: But I do think there is some truth to that 655 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 3: because this offense has shown this last year. I mean 656 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 3: signing JK. Dobbins, signing Gus Edwards. So now they draftomre 657 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 3: in Hampton, they get their cells and naj hairs. So 658 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 3: the plan for the one two punch was already there existing, 659 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 3: So I do think like him getting this ADP where 660 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 3: he's going in the fourth round is kind of nasty. 661 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 3: And that's why I'm smiling and grinning when I'm able 662 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 3: to get a tray Von Henderson around later, or even 663 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 3: a R. J. Harvey, who I think is going to 664 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 3: overleave Hampton as well.

He was a great 687 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: wide receiver, putt returner. 688 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 3: I only know Mantai and Kyron and Brady Quinn that 689 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 3: went to Notre Dame.

We're talking about a few more 694 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: preseason games, and then I'm gonna go burn my birth certificates. 695 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: Nobody knows how old I am. Stick around for more 696 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast. I spent the break watching 697 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: brocket Ishmael highlights just to make me feel better about 698 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: my I don't even like Notre Dame football, and you 699 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: got me defending a Notre Dame football. My USC bona 700 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: fides are in trouble. Now. They're gonna make me hand 701 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: in my Trojan football card. This is a shame anyway. 702 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: Jetson Giants Battle of the Meadowlands NFL Networking see that 703 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 1: game on Saturday at four pm Eastern time. LaQuan should 704 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,919 Speaker 1: Jackson dark get a real shot to be the QB 705 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: one for the Giants. 706 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 3: No because I want It'll sound commident about that. I 707 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 3: do think like in preseason we got a little taste 708 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 3: of what he could bring to the table. Like I'm cool, like, 709 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 3: all right, let me see preseason, Like I'll come around 710 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 3: to it. But I kind of want Russell Wilson to 711 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 3: cook because like we know, when the kitchen clothes and 712 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 3: the recipe starts tasting a little weird. But I do 713 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 3: feel like Russell Wilson get me those high spike weeks 714 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 3: with Milik Neighbors on that deep ball. I do think 715 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 3: I want that because, like I said, I'm willing to 716 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 3: reach on Milak Neighbors. If I'm at the one oh five, 717 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 3: I'm ready to take them off the field board. If 718 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 3: CD's gone, you know, obviously a Bajon's gone, and I'm 719 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 3: just like all in on Malik Neighbors in this Russell 720 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 3: Wilson connection just to start the season. 721 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: Are we sure Florio that the Russ deep ball, that 722 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: the moon ball is still there? Because I'm looking. I'm 723 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: looking at his game logs from last year and starting 724 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,479 Speaker 1: in Week fourteen, these were his yards per attempt six 725 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,439 Speaker 1: point one five point eight, six point six, five point five, 726 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: four point eight That that doesn't sound very moonballish to me, Like, 727 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:58,760 Speaker 1: are we sure that still exists? 728 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 2: For us? It might not be what it once was, 729 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 2: but it's otherworldly compared to what the Giants quarterbacks were 730 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 2: last year. Like I put out an article on nfl 731 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 2: dot com top ten league winners, and Elik Neighbors is 732 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 2: number one, and the reason is largely because of the 733 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 2: deep ball. Because last year Russ had a forty six 734 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 2: percent success rate on the deep ball might not be 735 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 2: what it was in his prime. Giants quarterbacks as a 736 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 2: whole had a twenty percent success rate. The rating is 737 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 2: more than double. The completion percentage more than double. The 738 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 2: EPA is like quadruple, Like it's off the charts. How 739 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 2: much better Russ is than everyone that was throwing the 740 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,760 Speaker 2: deep ball last year? And the thing I like about 741 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 2: this situation is Jackson Dart has a strong arm as well. 742 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 2: Jameis Winston we know is the king maker, So even 743 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 2: if something happened to Russ, there's options there that should 744 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 2: only help. I'm yeah, I absolutely love Thelak Neighbors, and yeah, 745 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 2: I'm all in. I do think darts like I would 746 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 2: love to see it be a competition, but I think 747 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,280 Speaker 2: we were actual yesterday on Fantasy Live. Which Giants quarterback 748 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 2: we think scores the most points this year? And I 749 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 2: think it's Russ because their defense and Elik neighbors will 750 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 2: make him look good enough where a Dable and the 751 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 2: coaching staff want to just keep brought in with with 752 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 2: uh Russ. 753 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I I keep thinking at some point 754 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna start Jackson Dart because and maybe maybe I'm 755 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: just underestimating how good the defense is or how much 756 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 1: the defense I should say, keep them in games. I 757 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,760 Speaker 1: know they're good. I'm underestimating maybe how much the defense 758 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 1: will keep them in games because their schedule is brutal 759 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,399 Speaker 1: and there's a very good chance they start Zher to 760 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,399 Speaker 1: four even if Russ is you know, even if US 761 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: isn't a dumpster fire, right, Russ can be just fine. 762 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: He can be perfectly Russ, and it could still be 763 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: oh and four when you look at that. Yeah, And 764 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: so like I'm just wondering, like do they press on 765 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: because starting on four is always bad. Starting oh and 766 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: four in the nfcast where you gotta deal with the 767 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: Eagles and the Commanders is going to be hellish. So like, 768 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: at what point do they throw up the white flag 769 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 1: and start Jackson Dart and I just you know, so 770 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: I think that's very much in play, And I'm like, so, 771 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: then part of me is wondering, like, well, why don't 772 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: you just bite the bullet and just start him from 773 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: the beginning and just see what you got. 774 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 2: Because they think they can make the playoffs with Russ, 775 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 2: I'd imagine. 776 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 3: But the Giants aren't gonna be good though, we know 777 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 3: that right like the. 778 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 1: Christ the Giants can go to a playoff game. They 779 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 1: can buy a ticket like the rest of us. You know, 780 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: it's throwing him in when their bye week is fourteen, 781 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: Like that's when you're gonna throw the scenes is already 782 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: washed it over. 783 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 2: Like no, I think that's why they they can move 784 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 2: before that. 785 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: So wait, look are you are you advocating this? Look on, 786 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,240 Speaker 1: are you advocating that they start Jackson Dart? 787 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 2: No? 788 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 3: No, what I'm saying is they start him after week fourteen. 789 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 3: But again, that's fantasy playoffs. Like I'm good, I kind 790 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 3: of don't want that change. Let let Dark develop, like 791 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 3: he doesn't need to start year one, like, let these 792 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 3: quarterbacks develop in three years like how they used to. 793 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 3: Like I do think they're sitting in a good spot 794 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 3: with a quarterback room that has Jameis Winston Russell Wilson. 795 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 3: So I'd rather go from Russell Wilson to Jameis Winston 796 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 3: than Jackson Dark. Like that's my order in fantasy and 797 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 3: my priorities of how many shares I have league neighbors, 798 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 3: Like we need those two Winston to cook together. Yeah, 799 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,399 Speaker 3: that is the dreams that you don't need to see 800 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 3: Dark this year, Like I don't. 801 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 2: I think if the Giants fall out of it or 802 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 2: they start falling behind and they make them move to Dark. 803 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: Uh. Interesting point two though there is there is the 804 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: issue of Brian Babel try to maintain employment as an 805 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: NFL head. 806 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:45,359 Speaker 3: Coach, So Dark as a test piece so you can know. 807 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: I honestly, I think if you're trying to hold onto 808 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 1: your job, you probably are starting RUSS and then going 809 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 1: to jamis like you're not You're not a coach who's 810 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: on the hot seat and you're gonna throw a rookie 811 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: in there and just see what happens. Like that's not 812 00:40:57,760 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: gonna work. 813 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 2: I think it would have to be an early he 814 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 2: sees an injury for RUSS for us to get jamis 815 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,280 Speaker 2: like I think if they make a change at starting quarterback, 816 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 2: it's them waving the white flag and going. 817 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:12,720 Speaker 1: To the kid who's more likely to start. Who's Who's 818 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: who's more likely to start games this year, Jameis Winston 819 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 1: or Kenny Pickett. 820 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:23,880 Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett in MI, guys, it's amazing. 821 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 1: I didn't really think about that. 822 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 3: I want to say, Kenny Kenny Pickett. 823 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 1: I asked that because I was having a conversation with 824 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 1: somebody yesterday and we started talking about the Browns quarterback situation, 825 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: and we both sort of landed on the fact that 826 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 1: everybody's talking about either Joe Flacco, like, hey, Flacco is 827 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: probably gonna win the job, he'll be the starting quarterback, 828 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 1: or you talk about the rookies right like, when do 829 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 1: they get Dylan Gabriel a shot? How much of a 830 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: shot that should were saying. Nobody's mentioning Kenny Pickett, Like 831 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:55,760 Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett is just there, right. 832 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 3: And they traded for him. 833 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: He's very much just a seat warmer right now. Like 834 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 1: nobody like the conversations, either the old guy or the 835 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 1: young guys. Nobody's talking about the guy in the middle 836 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:08,439 Speaker 1: at this point. 837 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 3: Crazy, Yeah, he. 838 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 1: Seems like I've never met him. He seems like, I'm 839 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: sure he's a perfectly fine gentleman. I have no affinity with. 840 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 3: If you're from New Jersey, I protect you just put 841 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 3: it like that. That's just what it comes down. 842 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: To, Okay. 843 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 2: I was trying to think someone terrible from Jersey. 844 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 1: There's gotta be like a there's gotta be like a 845 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 1: mafia don or something like that. Yeah, yeah, right, exactly 846 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: in my vision. I don't headline Lakwan Jones supports the 847 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:47,840 Speaker 1: Mafia Cardinals at Broncos again NFL Network. That game Saturday, 848 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 1: nine thirty Eastern time, l Q, you are the biggest R. J. 849 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 1: Harvey stand on this show. I have repeatedly said that 850 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: Sean Payton is a lying liar who lies and he's 851 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: gonna get JK. Dobbins in there more than you think. 852 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 1: Harvey had some good plays last week. I'm the knock 853 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:06,320 Speaker 1: on him though, is that he was trying to bounce 854 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: everything outside. Does that bother you? Do you need to 855 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,760 Speaker 1: see him run between the tackles more? Are you cool 856 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 1: with him being him? 857 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:15,840 Speaker 3: I do want him to run in between the tackles 858 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,360 Speaker 3: to show that he can do it, like just to 859 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 3: put the haters to bed because him bouncing outside doesn't 860 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 3: bother me. And again, his coach, he even spoke on 861 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 3: it. It doesn't bother him because he's beating those guys nine 862 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,920 Speaker 3: times out of ten going up the field. So I 863 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 3: do think that, you know, RJ. Harvey needs to show 864 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 3: a little bit more in between the tackles, just to 865 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 3: showcase him as fully as like he could be in 866 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 3: every down back. He may not be in every down 867 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,840 Speaker 3: back in this system, but it's fine. Sean Payton's on 868 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 3: the sticks and he knows how to utilize a one 869 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,919 Speaker 3: to two punch. We've seen him be very, very very 870 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 3: successful with this in New Orleans. So I'm not worried 871 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 3: about RJ. Harvey, not a bit. Give them all, give 872 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,280 Speaker 3: me the shares. I'm good, Floria. 873 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: I know you said you've come around on Amar and Hampton. 874 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 1: Where are you on Harvey? 875 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 2: I really like RJ. Harvey. I won't say I'm l 876 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 2: Q levels of like, but I loved him as a 877 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 2: prospect in the new year. I don't need to see 878 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 2: him run between the tackles. I need him to catch 879 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 2: passes and to run out wide and get those big 880 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 2: chunk plays. And I think Peyton is the like he 881 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 2: fell to the perfect landing spot. I know JK. Dobbins 882 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 2: puts a little bit of a cap there because I 883 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 2: do think he'll be the goal line runner. But he 884 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 2: Harvey could have like a Camara light type season that 885 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 2: that he had under Payton for years. 886 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's a that's a Camara light. Yeah. I 887 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 1: think I think that's probably the best thing. I wouldn't 888 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 1: call it. 889 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:37,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, we got de Bo light. 890 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, and who's de Bo? Who's Debolan Debo? Yeah, but 891 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,280 Speaker 1: like that's been generally unsatisfying, like it's been. 892 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he has been that way too, but Dibo's 893 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 3: been unsatisfying as well, so it kind of plays it. 894 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I just I keep thinking everybody really is 895 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 1: holding onto that twenty twenty one Deebo seat and like 896 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:07,319 Speaker 1: wanting it to I'm I'm taking I'm I'm assuming it's not. 897 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 2: Choosing. 898 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 1: I'm choosing to believe that he was actually making a 899 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 1: football point here and not just you know, come on there. 900 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 1: But but for the record, I might have I might 901 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: have I might have made a mention of you on 902 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 1: Fantasy Live when I talked about Kyron Williams, So you know, whatever, 903 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 1: hold up now six pm Eastern, three o'clock Pacific in 904 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 1: IF on network, shout out Bill's at Bears Floria. I 905 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 1: know you will be. I'm, like I say, watching intently, 906 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:41,879 Speaker 1: but I'm sure you will definitely check in and see 907 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,360 Speaker 1: how things are going. Ben Johnson has said the starters 908 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 1: will play maybe a fairly good amount in this one. 909 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,359 Speaker 1: The reports out of Bears camp have sort of been 910 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,439 Speaker 1: up and down. You know. There have been things where 911 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 1: it looked times where it looks good, there have been 912 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 1: times where everybody has sort of struggled. Ben Johnson is 913 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: trying to be creative talking about putting DJ Moore in 914 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 1: the backfield every once in a while. What do you 915 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: want to see or how much do you want to 916 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: see from Caleb and the starters this weekend? 917 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 2: I want to see just enough, you know, like like 918 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 2: a player too where you're like okay, Like this Bears 919 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 2: offense looks like they're cooking with fire, and I don't 920 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 2: want to see anything more than that because I'm trying 921 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 2: to draft a lot of Bears this summer, and if 922 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 2: they go out and fall out, every player's ADP is 923 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,759 Speaker 2: gonna rise, and I don't want that. I'm especially with 924 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 2: the Bears, though, I'm more interested in usage than results, 925 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 2: Like I want to see where Dj Moore is lining up. 926 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 2: I want to see where Roman Dunes is lining up. 927 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 2: Is Luther Birden playing the slot? Is DeAndre Swift getting 928 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 2: the three downs opportunity? You don't have to get him 929 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 2: all the touches, just to see out there standing next 930 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 2: to Caleb for three downs. And that's what I care about. 931 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 2: So I hope they're not very productive, but I hope 932 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 2: it is like the alignment and the usage that we're 933 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:52,840 Speaker 2: hopeful to see. 934 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 1: Where are you on the Bears offense? Lakwan like? How 935 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: many guys are you targeting? Where are you Tark Like, 936 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 1: how are you feeling about this group? Well? 937 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 3: I got DeAndre Swift in the top fifteens, and when 938 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,760 Speaker 3: it comes to the running backs, just based on this offense, 939 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,439 Speaker 3: I'm in on Caleb as well. I'm in on Dj 940 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 3: Moore obviously he's my wide receiver twelve. I'm kind of 941 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:18,320 Speaker 3: in on Loveland, but not really the same thing with Burden. 942 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 3: But Romadunze is a great, you know, tool that I 943 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:23,880 Speaker 3: can utilize as a flex you know, most weeks in 944 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 3: my draft. So I do feel like that Bears offense 945 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 3: is going to be very explosive. But I do think 946 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 3: I don't need to see anything from Caleb right now. 947 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 3: Like I think Ben Johnson's kind of going to keep 948 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 3: this tucked away secret because they have a Monday night 949 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 3: game against the Vikings and this could mean something at 950 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 3: the end of the year when it comes to playoffs 951 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 3: and everything else. So this is a very important game 952 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 3: for them, And I think Ben Johnson's just trying to 953 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 3: get the mental like culture out there for Caleb to 954 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,959 Speaker 3: be cause, like it's been reported that he's being hard 955 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,440 Speaker 3: on him, he's coaching him up. Like it's kind of 956 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 3: like you know me with Mason trying to like be 957 00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,239 Speaker 3: hard on him when I'm trying to coach him up 958 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 3: with soccer. And this is what the game is, and 959 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 3: this is what it needs to be, Like you know 960 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:03,680 Speaker 3: what I mean. 961 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:09,480 Speaker 1: I love you comparing your youth soccer coaching. Try to 962 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: get a second year quarterback to go. 963 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,280 Speaker 3: He needs to know, like kids are gonna pull your jersey, 964 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 3: It's okay, just keep running. Like he's watching all these 965 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 3: YouTube highlights of these princess soccer players and like soon 966 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 3: they get touched, they fall. We don't play the game 967 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 3: like that. 968 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 1: Man, If if it works for neymar and Christiano Ronaldo, man, 969 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 1: why can't it work against this you U ten team 970 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 1: over here? 971 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 2: Is doesn't play like that. 972 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 3: If Messi is his favorite player, he needs to mirror that, 973 00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 3: like you got to keep running through people pulling on 974 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 3: your jersey. 975 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,359 Speaker 1: But whatever, that's fair. But Messi also just like will 976 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 1: randomly sit out games because he just doesn't. He's just 977 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 1: not feeling. 978 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 2: That that's my goal. 979 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:52,240 Speaker 1: That's my goal, all right? Fair enough? 980 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 2: I have. 981 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 1: Anything else? Anything else? You guys are like keeping an 982 00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: eye on floor anything? Is there any anything we didn't 983 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 1: touch on that maybe you kind of want to see 984 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:03,840 Speaker 1: from this weekend. 985 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 2: I'm going to watch Justin Fields if he's out there 986 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:10,959 Speaker 2: again this week. I really the thing is we've reached 987 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 2: the point like I've seen enough. Travon Henderson, that's my 988 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 2: guy this year. I don't want him to do anything more. 989 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 2: It's it's cost me more and more to get him. 990 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 2: I'm good. So like that's very much so the the 991 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,920 Speaker 2: kind of attitude I take to preseason, Like if you 992 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 2: want a player, I don't think you want him to 993 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 2: do good in like I go back to years ago 994 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:30,240 Speaker 2: when I'm aging myself here. But when like Emmanuel Sanders 995 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 2: first went to the Broncos, I was like, I want 996 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,280 Speaker 2: to draft him everywhere, and then he exploded in the preseason. 997 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,280 Speaker 2: It was like a third round pick and it became 998 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 2: too difficult to get him on all your teams.
