00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: Maybe it's gold, said yellow jacket. I thought you thought

Speaker 1: Georgia Tech is what I thought? Bees? Yeah, you know,

Speaker 1: got the the set falling apart as we speak, right, Yeah,

17
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: that's right. That actually reminded me of an interview that

18
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: Gene Okerland did for w w F and the w

19
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: w F logo fell down behind him and he started,

20
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: let me tell you something let me tell you something.

21
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: I'm just worried that the rest of it falls down

00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: and gelhar breaks his head. H It is the NFL

70
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: draft picks but could take your fantasy team to the

71
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: next level. I do enjoy that. But let's get to

72
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: the top fantasy headlines for today. I love it. I

73
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: feel like I'm in a ninety eighties newscast. It's good stuff.

74
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: West Mantooth is gonna jump in here at some point.

75
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates was suspended four games for violent at the

76
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 1: NFL Possey and Program for performance enhancing substances. Listen, he

77
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: was getting on in years, but even at thirty five

78
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: years of age, the dude had a huge year last year.

79
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: Eight hundred yards, twelve touchdowns and get this, he was

80
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: the second highest scoring tight end last year, only behind

81
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: the great Gronkowski. The name that jumps out, obviously is

82
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: Ladarius Green, six six to forty athletic freak entering his

83
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: fourth year. What do we expect? Uh, not only from

84
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates, but how about Ladarius Green. How excited are

85
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: you guys about the Green Monster? I mean don't want

86
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: to be. We've We've been going for a couple of

87
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: years about this with Ladarius. It's been happen a couple

88
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 1: of years. Um. I mean, I guess I'm more excited,

89
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: but I'm not rushing up. I'm not reaching up to

90
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: get Ladarius Green all of a sudden. I think, if anything,

91
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: it helps Keenan Allen a lot more. Uh. You know,

92
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: Malcolm Floyd is back. He may see some more targets.

93
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: I guess we don't have any royal to kick around anymore,

94
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: so we don't have to worry about that one now.

95
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: But you know, I just have a feeling these targets

96
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: are gonna go somewhere else not named Ladarius Green. Yeah,

97
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 1: no question about that. And what I fear is that

98
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: Green plays well in the first four weeks, Gates comes back,

99
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: they eat into each other's targets. Making both of them inconsistent,

100
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: whereas at least last year you had Gates who was

101
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: scoring touchdowns like they were going out of style, but

102
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 1: I mean touchdowns against Seattle. Come on. Keep in mind

103
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: too that in the previous two years combined he had

104
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: eleven touchdowns. Ye last year he had twelve. He wasn't

105
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: gonna get there again. And uh, I agree with Marcus

106
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: about Keenan Allen, who was one of my favorite bounce

107
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 1: back candidates, because if you look at the numbers, since

108
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: without Gates in the lineup, Philip Rivers actually averaged more

109
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: yards per completion, his explosive pass plays were a bit

110
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: higher as well. The touchdown passes per game he was

111
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: still over too. Even without Gates, They've still got some

112
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: weapons in that passing game. So I don't know that

113
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: Rivers takes a huge fall here. But Green is now

114
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: a draftable asset somewhere down as a two, and you

115
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: wait and see what happens with him exactly. I'm with Marcus.

116
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 1: I think more so than anything, I'm not excited about

117
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: drafting him because I'm more worried that it's just gonna

118
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: end in heartbreak again. You're gonna have more reason for optimism,

119
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: So therefore the heartbreak is gonna be that much bigger.

120
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: It's like doing a long distance relationship in college. You're like,

121
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: this seems like a good idea. We've been together for

122
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: so long, but it's just gonna end in heartbreak. He've

123
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: been hyping this Green guy for it's for years now.

124
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: You know, he ran a quicker forty than Antonio Brown, Calvin,

125
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: Benjamin and Dwayne. But like that is amazing. If he's

126
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: so fash he never opened. He's not on the field.

127
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: That the old man in front of him. Oh man, yeah,

128
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: you know. And the and that's the other thing. Man

129
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: Rivers just loves him him Gates, He just loves him.

130
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: So I mean when he gets in trouble, he just says, hey,

131
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: where's my boy? Gates at just tosses it up. It's

132
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: it's good stuff. But where how does this impact Antonio

133
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: Gates his draft valley? Again, we're talking about a guy

134
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: thirty five years old, but again was hugely productive last year. Um,

135
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: obviously it's gonna take a big knock on him. Uh,

136
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: but you know where I guess what is a good

137
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: draft price for a guy like Antonio Gates? He's now

138
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: not someone that you would draft outside of the last

139
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: five rounds. Um the one thing that I would do,

140
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: and uh, is he draftable? Yes, this and this to

141
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: happen with a lot of people because the tight end

142
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: possession stinks coming into this year. It stinks. True, there's

143
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: only two guys you can draft in the first five rounds.

144
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: There's probably only five guys you can draft in the

145
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: first eight rounds. After that, it's a catcher's catch can

146
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: because you don't really know who is going to break out.

147
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: We like Zach ERT's right. Uh, maybe Jordan Cameron if

148
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: he can ever stay healthy. Jason Witten sort of that

149
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: old reliable guy. But if you want to utilize the

150
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: draft strategy with Gates, you take a lesser number one

151
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: to fill in for the first four weeks, or maybe

152
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: you take Ladarius Green. Then you have Gates after the

153
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: Chargers fourth game, you plug him into your lineup, you

154
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: use him for the rest of it. I almost, I

155
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: almost think, and trust me, there's on this panel there

156
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: is not a bigger Antonio Gates fan than James go.

157
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: I love. When did you start using the third person?

158
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: Just now? I didn't realize Carl Malone had joined the

159
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:35,559
Speaker 1: podcast head Carmlana loves Antonio Gates. Uh no, actually, but

160
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: by the way, props to you for two w w

161
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: F references in the first five minutes. Catch just Cascana,

162
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan, love it. But no, I'm a

163
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,839
Speaker 1: huge Antonio Gates fan, and I can I would hesitate

164
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: even drafting the guy. I hesitate drafting. And let me

165
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: tell you why, because roster spots are so valuable on

166
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: a fantasy football team. I mean, unless you're playing one

167
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 1: of these crazy leagues that has like fifteen bench spots

168
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: or whatever might be, but bench spots are are so

169
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: so important, especially early on. Are you really gonna roster

170
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: two tight ends? All right? Wait, let me ask you

171
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: a question here. Yeah. Well, I mean a lot of

172
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: people are going to roster two tight ends because the

173
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: position is weak this season, hoping to catch it. I mean,

174
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: Levy and Bell is gonna miss three games, Tom Brady's

175
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 1: gonna miss four games. They're both draftable assets. Gates was

176
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 1: the second best tight end. But we're talking about running back.

177
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: We're talking about running backs mike versus tight ends. All

178
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: these guys that you mentioned that could be interesting substitutes.

179
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: I guarantee you they're going to be on the way

180
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: for wire, so that for me, I would hesitate the

181
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: drafters out there. Uh, Gates is still a starting fantasy

182
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: and he's not gonna last on the waiver one. He's

183
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: gonna get drafted in a lot of leagues. And I

184
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: think if you don't have if you don't have Gronk

185
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: or Graham, maybe Kelsey Olsen, maybe Thomas in it, Julius Thomas.

186
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't even know about him, Marcus, right,

187
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: But they're actually guys. If you don't get maybe those

188
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: first five maybe six guys, you're probably streaming tying into

189
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 1: the rest. But that's why I'm saying a guy like

190
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: Gates might not be worth the draft pick. Are you

191
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 1: really gonna wait four weeks for Antonio Gates to come back?

192
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: And Mike you mentioned it. If he does, Ladarius Green

193
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: maybe starts to cut into his playing time. It's a

194
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: It's a draft pick that I can't really trust, and

195
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: I would be hesitant, uh to advocate drafting a guy

196
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 1: like Antonio Gates. Despite my man crushed on to on

197
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates, and despite the fact that he was the

198
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: second highest scoring tight end last year. I think what

199
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: he can represent, though, is like a security blanket. If

200
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: you start, you take a shot on the higher upside

201
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: guy like maybe you're gonna ride with a s J

202
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: or Josh Haile streaming tight ends for the first couple

203
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: of weeks and it isn't panning out. If you drafted Gates,

204
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: then you've got a tight end one ready to go,

205
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: and after somebody gets injured. You're doing the same thing

206
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 1: with Tom Brady. Right to Tom Brady was was was

207
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: awful the first four weeks. You know that very well,

208
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: and then he came on and played. I wish you

209
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: would suspended, but you're you're basically gonna be doing the

210
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: same thing. You're gonna draft Brady, sit on him for

211
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: four weeks, and then wait for him to come back,

212
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: and then you're going to utilize him the rest of

213
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: the year. Same thing goes for Antonio Gates. Yes, there's

214
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: a chance that Green comes in and the targets get

215
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: eaten up a little bit. Maybe uh Gates doesn't see

216
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: is what he did last year. But he's still a

217
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: red zone target and he's still a prominent player at

218
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: a position that is awful. Yes, awful. Those all those assessments,

219
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 1: I agree with the only difference is that when Brady

220
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: comes back, you know he's getting the rock. When Gates

221
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: comes back, you don't know what kind of targets he's

222
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: gonna get. But we move on. Mike Evans UH did

223
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 1: a pretty extensive sit down interview with the USA today

224
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: and we learned he's a huge Harry Potter fan and

225
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: he spent part of the offseason learning from his childhood idol,

226
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: Randy Moss, the receiver, not the NFL network reporter. Can

227
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: he be a top ten receiver next year, which is

228
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: what he was last year? A thousand years, a thousand

229
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: fifty yards, twelve touchdowns? Does he repeat? Does he move

230
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: in to the upper echelon UH? Fantasy wide receivers? Mike,

231
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: what do you think? I have him ranked at the

232
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: top ten and he just keeps moving on up for

233
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: me to uh the size, the red zone presence that

234
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: he brings to that offense. And let's be honest, Jamis

235
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: Winston has got to be an upgrade over them and

236
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 1: they had last year. Gotta be so I've got like

237
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: he doesn't have to be, but you would think, I mean,

238
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: we're talking about Mike Lennon. I have Evans ranked number eight.

239
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: I like that he got in uh and did some

240
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: work with Randy Moss, who, by the way, for people

241
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: who didn't play fantasy football back in the late nineties

242
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: and two thousands of oh boy, he was. He was amazing.

243
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: We'll just we'll just ex out we'll just uh, you know,

244
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 1: out his Raider years. But very sure. Sure, although I

245
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: think he had a thousand yards with the Raiders, it

246
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: just wasn't very good. I know he he had missed

247
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 1: some time, maybe suspended. But um, the thing that I

248
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: like about Evans is that he's a second year receiver

249
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: who young and if you look at the receptions in

250
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 1: the yard each yeah, there's solids for improvement, no doubt

251
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: it really is. What do you think I hesitated to

252
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: him in the top ten? I'm I was, I didn't

253
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 1: hadn't seen this. Did you move him up in your

254
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 1: latest one fabs up to eight? Because? Uh, touchdowns even

255
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: for wide receivers, and for a guy as big as

256
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: Evans or Flukey. You know who else is big and

257
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: great in the red zone, Vince and Jackson. You know

258
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: else is great and big in the red zone. Boston's

259
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: very and Jenkens and uh. The fact is, like Vince

260
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: and Jackson. I think the hate has gone a little

261
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: too far on him this year because he only had

262
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: two touchdowns last year. I was looking at all the

263
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: years where still a thousand yards, all the years where

264
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: he's played sixteen games or like fifteen or more games

265
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 1: and been like a true starter. He's averaged seven touchdowns

266
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: a year. Okay, you think that's going to swing back?

267
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: That could eat into it. Jamis Winston's an unknown. I

268
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: love Mike Evans and that wide receiver two range as

269
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: a tate to put him up into the wide receiver

270
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: one range. Marcus Grant, Yeah, I'm with Alex on this one.

271
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: I just I just have this bad feeling about Mike.

272
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 1: I do too. I don't know why. I don't know why.

273
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: I can't put my finger on it, but just I

274
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: think maybe it's a twelve touchdowns and feeling like I

275
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: don't know that that happens again, you know. I mean,

276
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: that's a big numbers that to have happened again, and

277
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: I feel like, and I say, this is somebody. I'm

278
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: currently writing a little self promotion writing something about Keenan

279
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: Allen should be up on Wednesday on NFL dot com

280
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: about you know, why he fell off from his rookie

281
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: year to his sophomore year. Part of it was that

282
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: his his touchdown numbers felt quite a bit a yards

283
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: numbers felt quite a bit um And I just have

284
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: this this weird feeling that we're gonna have the same

285
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: thing with Mike Evans, and not that an it's anything

286
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: about him or the offense, just it's just such a

287
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: hard standard to live up to. Again. I mean, I'm

288
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: looking at we talked about Randy Moss and he had

289
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 1: that incredible rookie season. The seventeen touchdowns, thirteen hundred yards.

290
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, he bounced back. He had four double

291
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: digit touchdown seasons to to start a screen fact. Yea,

292
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: but six of his first seven. But he's he's Randy Boss.

293
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: And I don't think Mike Evans is there quite yet.

294
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: I think they'll have perfectly good numbers. I could see

295
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: him with you know, nine hundred yards in five or

296
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 1: six touchdowns, and that's a fine year. It's just not

297
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: the big top ten. And I think the biggest difference

298
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: to is the speed. I mean Randy Moss, yes, he

299
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: was had sticky hands, he was long, he was leaning,

300
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: he you know, similar size profile, but the speed man,

301
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: I mean, Randy Moss was a blur out there, Mike Evans,

302
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: you know, not necessarily. Look, he's still a great athlete,

303
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: a great wide receiver. I could easily see him, uh

304
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: repeating his campaign of being a top ten wide receiver

305
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: this year. But as you mentioned, though, man twelve touchdowns,

306
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: that's tough to do. But how about this, how about

307
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 1: I have he had eight touchdowns in yards? You'd feel

308
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 1: if he gets feel uncomfortable with me, he's the top

309
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: ten guy at the position. I mean he even admitted

310
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: it that last year he thought that the quarterbacks not

311
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: not to quote Julius Randall about leaving you know, some

312
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: some meat on the bone and Joseph Artage, who did

313
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: I say, you said, Julius, I'm thinking basketball. Yes, But um,

314
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: that is something that I think he's going to improve on.

315
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: Sixty catches, I mean, that's that's not great. Two targets too.

316
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: I mean, granted a lot of those were probably overthrown

317
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: right right exactly. So I really think that there is

318
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: a there's a young up and coming star in Tampa

319
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: Bay who is a top ten receiver in fantasy and

320
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: maybe in reality too very soon. I like it. I

321
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: like it a lot. I think I think eighty five

322
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: catches yards, eight or nine touchdown. I think that's totally

323
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: doable for him. And if that's the situation, we are

324
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: talking about a star in the making, no doubt. All right.

325
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: The Saints had a huge revamp of their offense this season.

326
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: They traded Jimmy Graham, they signed C. J. Spiller uh

327
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: to pair with mark Ingram. They let Kenny Stills walk.

328
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 1: It's opening the door for guys like Brandon Cooks, Josh Hill,

329
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: and total unknowns like Shantavious Jones, a random six five

330
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: rookie white out from Valdosta State. I don't even know

331
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: if I'm saying Valdosta. Is it Valdosta? Valdosta? Valdosta? All right? Valda.

332
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: I think it's in Georgia. It is correct. There you

333
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: go a lot of new names. That prompted Drew Brees

334
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: to tell ESPN Button Rouge that he's quote excited about

335
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,959
Speaker 1: all these guys and that some of these guys are

336
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: gonna be quote household names pretty quick. Do you buy that?

337
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: Do you buy that Seantavius Jones might be a household

338
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: name pretty soon? I don't know about that. What household

339
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: are you, Mrs household house? But Brandon Cooks will be

340
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,440
Speaker 1: I I love him, and I said I loved Cordiolla

341
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 1: Patterson last year and who that didn't really work out

342
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 1: very well. But you're looking at one of the best

343
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in NFL history, and Drew Brees during him, the

344
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,719
Speaker 1: football a lot of lost targets after Graham was traded

345
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: was traded. The backfield had a lot of targets that

346
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: they lost as well, which is good news for C. J. Spiller.

347
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: But Cooks is lightning fast. The only thing that can

348
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,239
Speaker 1: keep him from breaking out this year is if he

349
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 1: can't stay healthy. That's it. That's it. He is to me.

350
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: I have him ranked in the top fifteen wide receivers

351
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 1: and he is one of the guys I am targeting

352
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 1: for sure. Marcus here. I kind of feel like the

353
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: fantasy community has fallen out of favor with the Saints. Um,

354
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know they've fallen out of favor

355
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,959
Speaker 1: with him. I think I think people are looking at

356
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: them with caution this year because the last year was

357
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: such heartache at every on every Saints positional player. Drew Brees, disappointment,

358
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 1: Jimmy Well, and I thought, I think that's where the

359
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 1: caution comes in, is that everything they've done this offseason

360
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: points to them changing the way that offense works. That

361
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be Drew Brees throwing for five thousand

362
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: yards anymore. That yeah, you know, he'll put up decent numbers.

363
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: He could get it. He could have a four thousand

364
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 1: yards season, but he's not gonna have those video game

365
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: numbers were used to seeing from him. Instead, we're gonna see,

366
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: I think, a lot more short throws. We're gonna see

367
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: a lot more mark ingram in the offense. We're gonna

368
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: see you know, the C. J. Spiller, We're catching the

369
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: you know, the passes out of the backfield sort of thing.

370
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 1: It's not going to be Drew Brees with the you know,

371
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: five to seven step drop and heaving it down field

372
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 1: for his targets. I just don't think that's going to

373
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 1: be as big a part of the offense anymore. I

374
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: think a part of me just died from that ran.

375
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: Part of me just died. Let me, let me, let

376
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: me bring you back, let me respect is where I

377
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: was more concerned at first, you know, when that they

378
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: traded Jimmy Graham and grown up. But then I sat

379
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 1: back and I was like, this is still Sean Payton.

380
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: This is not Brian Schottenheimer an offense. He's got a

381
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame quarterback, He's got great talent around him.

382
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 1: Still Marcus Colston, as we'll talk about later, still has

383
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 1: a little left in the tank. He up Randon Cooks. Nicktoon,

384
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: the son of is an al Tuna Hall of Famer.

385
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: Maybe not. Anyways, was not the Nicktoon you got, as

386
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: you said, Sean Tavis Jones, C. Spiller, this is still

387
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: an offense that's going to put up yards and points.

388
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: And I think we just need to come back around

389
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: to the fact that it's got a fantastic coach, Colin

390
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: Plays and a fantastic quarterback. They're going to move the

391
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: ball and they're going to put up fantasy points. I

392
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: think the I wonder if the backlash from last year's disappointment,

393
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's part of it. Yeah, And uh,

394
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 1: you know marky Ingram obviously he excelled, and he he

395
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: was the one guy that that um outperformed his draft

396
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: price and everyone else was was disappointed. And even even

397
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 1: a guy like Brandon Cooks were a lot of guys

398
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: were very excited about Brandon Cooks, and you know, the

399
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: injuries kind of derailed a very promising start. Look, look

400
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: I'll say this. I mean, I know you, I know

401
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 1: you don't want to hear James, but I'm gonna have

402
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: to quote outcast here. Even the sun goes down, heroes

403
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 1: eventually died. It just it happens. Heroes eventually die. Hey,

404
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 1: can we mark the podcast with that one? That? That

405
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: should be the tagline or the podcast today? Heroes eventually die, Sully,

406
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: can we make that happen? All right? We're making were making.

407
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: Didn't Superman die at one point? Comics? Of course? Batman? Yeah,

408
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 1: you know, babe, everybody dies and comes back to life

409
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: in this tricks. That's how they work. That's how they

410
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: get you buying more comics. All right? All right, um,

411
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 1: what should we do? Oh? We should do mail time?

412
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: Should we do mail time? Let's do mail time? How

413
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: about we do it? Get that sign wits out of

414
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: your pie hole and listen up, maggot, It's time for

415
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:10,719
Speaker 1: miracle mail time. Matthew Smith at Tennessee Road Kills I

416
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 1: think is his handle t N road Kills? Uh? He

417
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: asked in a PPR keeper just got offered a third

418
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 1: round pick for Gore. What do you think, I think?

419
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: How do you click that yes button fast enough? I mean,

420
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: good lord, yes, make that trade here? Yeah, No, there's

421
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: no there's no doubt. I mean Gore otherwise is what

422
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: like a fifth fifth round pick? A fifth? Rude? You're

423
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: getting a third round pick for Gore? Who is a

424
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 1: fifth round pick or a sixth round pick for this year?

425
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: It's a keeper league. There's no way Gore's lasting until

426
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 1: the fifth or sixth round, at least as far as

427
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,919
Speaker 1: I'm concerned. He's in off the board in the fourth

428
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: round at the at the latest. But we're talking to

429
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 1: PPR keeper. You're you're trading up at least a round here,

430
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,360
Speaker 1: probably get somebody young. I'm not saying that I wouldn't

431
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: agree with this trade. I'm talking about Gore in terms

432
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: of redraft. Although it's hard to answer questions like this

433
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 1: because what if Matthew Smith has awful, awful running backs,

434
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: that's right, um, and he loses Gore and now he's

435
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: even bigger trouble in the backfield. So it's hard to

436
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 1: answer that with a little bit more without a little

437
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 1: bit more information. But on paper. Yeah, I agree with

438
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 1: would you move to the third round? I mean, after

439
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: we just talked about the Saints in their offense, move

440
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 1: up to the third round in maybe getting I like C. J. Spiller,

441
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: who could in New Orleans? Nope, that's right. You know

442
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: you don't like it. But James James makes a point

443
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: there because how how many times, guys have we been

444
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 1: on the Spiller bandwagon and don't do it? Thrown off?

445
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: I'll do it violently, don't do it? Is it a

446
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: better situation that with a better quarterback he's ever had

447
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:50,880
Speaker 1: in his career? I agree? All right, listen, we move

448
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: on our second little star Wars. I got another mail

449
00:22:54,280 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: drop first second question on mail time here message love it,

450
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 1: absolutely love it. Rayder Juice, Oh Juice underscore eight seven

451
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 1: sists asked us on Twitter who should I drop for

452
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 1: Kevin White, Tevin Coleman, or Keenan Allen. How do I say?

453
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: None of the above. But I would drop Kevin White

454
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 1: for Keenan Allen and I would probably drop him for

455
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman too. I think he's asking it the other way.

456
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 1: He's asking which of the other two guys White Kevin White? Oh, okay, Okay, yeah, no,

457
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: then I would rather have Keenan Allen, Tevin Coleman. I

458
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,959
Speaker 1: guess I would. I would them all, I would I

459
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: like them all. I would probably say goodbye to's Kevin Coleman. Uh,

460
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: just because I still have a feeling that I think

461
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,120
Speaker 1: DeVante Freeman is going to be more involved than we're

462
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,199
Speaker 1: giving him credit for. And I think the Falcons are

463
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: gonna throw the ball a lot more than we're anticipating

464
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 1: this year. Well, considering I give Deavonte Freeman zero carries,

465
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: I would hope that he Uh, your fictional team where

466
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: you're calling the place you're the back right exactly on

467
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 1: my video game offense, I'm giving the ball to Kevin

468
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: Coleman fifty times a game. Um boy, First of all,

469
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: what do you he's got to be in, like in

470
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 1: some crazy eight team league. Probably Kevin White can't be

471
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 1: hanging out out there, Kenny. I guess he can be.

472
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 1: Apparently he can. That's crazy talk. I mean, I do

473
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,959
Speaker 1: think Keenan Allen's gonna bounce back this year. I agree,

474
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,360
Speaker 1: But oh man, Kevin White's got unbelievable upside though. Man,

475
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 1: that's that's tough. Um. I have soured a little bit

476
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: on Keenan all and I hope he can bounce back,

477
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: and I think he could, But I was actually looking

478
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: at it historically for Rivers and Allen all the talk today, Uh, Rivers,

479
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 1: you have been a starter for about ten years now,

480
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: how many times do you think he's had a thousand

481
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: yard receiver wide receiver tight end? Well then, and I

482
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: don't And honestly, I don't know that. I don't think

483
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: Floyd's ever had a thousand yards now, but Allen Allen

484
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 1: had a thousand yards his rookie year, right, I think

485
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 1: I would say Vincent Jackson probably had it one. No,

486
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: I think he had more than that. It's it's six

487
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: in ten years. Two of them went to Gates, three

488
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: to Jackson and then one for Allen in other years.

489
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: He spreads the ball around a lot like Rivers is

490
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: great fantasy wise, but like you said, you got Malcolm

491
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 1: Floyd's getting eight hundred yards. Danny Woodhead had seven hundred

492
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 1: yards last time. He was fully healthy with them. So

493
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: that's why I'm like, I'm souring a little bit on

494
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: the Alan because he might end up just getting put

495
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: into the Stevie Johnson range, which is funny. At their

496
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 1: teammates now of like a thousand yards and six touchdowns

497
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: a year, So I would consider it. Would it would

498
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: be a very frisky move to drop Keenan Allen for

499
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: Kevin White, but I would do it. And and this

500
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: is coming from the cow guy, but I mean, I

501
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: got you gotta hold onto Keevin Coleman. Man, he's got

502
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:38,879
Speaker 1: too much upside at a position that that you need running.

503
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 1: It's hard to drop a running back for a wide receiver,

504
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: especially rookie wide receiver. Who's who's right now the number

505
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: two option on that offense, you know, So it's it's tough.

506
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm gonna be the guy and I

507
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: will regret this, I know, probably in November, but I'm

508
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna ride or die with Kevin

509
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: White this year. I just feel like, yeah, I just

510
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: I like I do. I'm feeling I'm gonna write or

511
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: die with Kevin White this year. Give me a projection, man,

512
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: Kevin White. You know, I I can see eleven hundred

513
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: yards who I feeling. I'm feeling the heels yards and

514
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns. You're you're you're thinking he has DeAndre Hopkins here.

515
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: I think he has DeAndre Hopkins type year. Yes, no, parachute, baby,

516
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,919
Speaker 1: I like it. I like it. I like it. I

517
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: like it when guys get crazy. I like it. Alright,

518
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 1: So raider Juice, here's the verdict. Man, I'm gonna say,

519
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,719
Speaker 1: you dropped Keenan Allen for Kevin White. I like the upside.

520
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: I know Marcus Grant likes Kevin White. Obviously he's gonna

521
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: drop Keenan Allen. Or is I'm I'm going Tvin Coleman.

522
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: You dropped Kevin Coleman for Kevin White. Whiz what do

523
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: you do? Uh? I say? We tell him to assign

524
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 1: one to two to Kevin White, three to four to

525
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman, five and six to Allen, and roll a

526
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 1: die and see which one. Alright, alright, alright, and Mike

527
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: uh drop somebody else, drop somebody else or or you

528
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 1: know what out there with White on the waiver wire,

529
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: which doesn't make any sense. It makes no sense whatsoever.

530
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: We move on. Daniel hass I like this. Yes, last

531
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 1: mail question. Here's the mail. It never fails. It makes

532
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: you want to wag my tail when it comes time.

533
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: One all the whale? What is that? Daniel hass Uh

534
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 1: and he's got an interesting Twitter handle Telemoni and Dan,

535
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: is that some kind of comic reference Star Trek reference? Maybe?

536
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,199
Speaker 1: I don't know, Tell you know, ask James D. Coo.

537
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: What does teleimonium? Dan? What is that a reference? I

538
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: like it? Uh? Yeah, c J. Anderson or Justin for

539
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 1: said Calbert or Calbert where you feel like you should

540
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 1: answer this first look, CJ, it's hard to get away.

541
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,880
Speaker 1: This is Sophie's choice for you. It's uh, it's it's

542
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 1: it's almost impossible to get away from c J. Anderson.

543
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 1: He's still in a very good offense. He showed last

544
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: year that he could ball out. I like Justin Force,

545
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 1: yet a very reliable I think he's gonna be a

546
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 1: very reliable option for Baltimore this year. But a lot

547
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 1: of competition there in Baltimore as well, so um, I

548
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: think they're gonna it's gonna eat into his production just

549
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: a little bit. Uh, it's just a more explosive offense.

550
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: And I just liked what I saw on the field

551
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: more from c J. Anderson versus Justin Forced, but both

552
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: very good players, no question, and I would agree with

553
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: you Anderson's got first round talent. YEP. I think for said,

554
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: has second round talent in PPR leagues, especially with Trustman.

555
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 1: They're calling the place for the Ravens. But um Anderson's

556
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: the play here. Let's just hope he's not monte Ball.

557
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 1: I don't think you will Cal greater than Wisconsin. Yes,

558
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: I went there. Yeah, Cal greater than was you know

559
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 1: where James co went to school. That's not even a shock.

560
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 1: All right, So a couple of points of favorite, yes please. Uh.

561
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: The beginning of the off season, Gary Kubiak was more

562
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 1: so like CJ's going and have to win the job.

563
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: You know it's gonna be a competition. Uh. Now he's

564
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: basically entering camp as the presumptive starter. Also, while for

565
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: Sett was great, Uh last year I didn't. I didn't

566
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: believe in him at first, but he proved us all wrong. Uh.

567
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: He only had six games with eight plus yards last year.

568
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: Anderson had five in the final six weeks. So he's

569
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 1: got that explosive ability, like we said, and he can

570
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: he can be a game changer in that offensive. Yeah.

571
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: It's funny too because CJ. Anderson in the passing game

572
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: was very effective and as you mentioned with Kubiak, Um

573
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: gone and uh Mark Trustman there in Baltimore, justin Forcett

574
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: is certainly an interesting play in PPR as well. All right,

575
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: let's talk about the Dallas Cowboys running back battle. Gentleman

576
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: running backs coach Gary Brown told the Dallas Morning to

577
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 1: his quote, I can't say who's gonna be the lead

578
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: dog right now, and we're gonna do what's necessary to

579
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: win games. A k A. You fantasy nerds need to

580
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: shut the hell of hey nerds. Offensive coordinator Scott Lenahan

581
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 1: has basically said it's going to be a committee approach

582
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: in quote, I just think we have a complimentary backfield.

583
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna spread out the carry. Some games are gonna

584
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: be different than others. Close quote, Oh boy, running back

585
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: by committee here in Dallas. Behind one of the most

586
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: talented offensive lines, UM Darren McFadden Joe Randall expected to

587
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: handle most of the duties. I would imagine Joe Randall

588
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: on fifty one carries last year six point seven yards

589
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 1: per carryman uh twenty three years old, six ft tall,

590
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: two hundred ten pounds. How about d mac though Darren

591
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 1: McFadden a hundred and fifty five carries last year for Oakland,

592
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: five hundred and thirty four yards Uh, despite a patchwork

593
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: offensive line, still three point four yards per carry. Not great,

594
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 1: but not awful either. Seven years old, twenty seven years old.

595
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: Although it feels like he's about surprises six twenty pounds,

596
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: he's a big boy man. Um, I guess where do

597
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: we go from here? Look, it sounds like it's gonna

598
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: be a committee approach, but coaches are notoriously bad about

599
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: lying about playing share. So where where do we go

600
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: from here? Joe Randall, Darren McFadden or do we believe

601
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: what the coaching staff says in that it will be

602
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: a committee approach? I think it is going to be

603
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: a committee to a point. What does that point? Which

604
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 1: means that Randall, who is the person I like, who

605
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: has the upside, who has the youth and the young legs,

606
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: and uh is getting a lot of hype down there

607
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: in Big D right there. Randall is the guy that

608
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 1: I see having two hundred and fifty carries. Where is McFadden?

609
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: That doesn't sound like very much. Maybe he sees a

610
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: D five somewhere in that range. Keep in mind, Darren

611
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: McFadden has not played a sixteen game season. I mean,

612
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: he is one of the most injury prone players. National

613
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: Football League. I mean, in the dictionary under injury pone players,

614
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: you've got a picture of run DMC. So I don't

615
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: know that he'll play sixteen games. I don't know that

616
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 1: he'll play twelve games. Randall is a guy who's got explosion.

617
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 1: He had a high arts per carry average last year.

618
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: You mentioned the great offensive line in front of him, tremendous.

619
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 1: I am going you and upside over experience and injuries here.

620
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 1: I'm going with Randall. You know, I think by the way,

621
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 1: I remember it was a last week's podcast where recent

622
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: podcast we were talking about this and I said jokingly

623
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: at the end that you know what's gonna hap, They're

624
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: gonna end up a committee and they're both going to

625
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: get a hundred carries. And then a few days later

626
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 1: this story comes out. So I'm with FABS in that

627
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: I do think by the end of the year Randall

628
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: is going to be the guy to take over. But

629
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: I do believe them when they say it's going to

630
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: be a committee. Usually we talk about coaches putting up

631
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: smoke screens. It's the so and so's gonna be our

632
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 1: number one guy. C J. Spiller is gonna run until

633
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 1: he pukes. And then all of a sudden, you know,

634
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: it's a whole lot of Fred Jackson. Usually they don't lie.

635
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: They don't lie the other way. They don't lie with hey,

636
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna split our carries up and then suddenly give

637
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: three hundred carries to one guy. It justenly doesn't work

638
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: that way. So I stand on what I said before

639
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: is that I think I think Darren McFadden starts the

640
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: year as the you know, the guy at top of

641
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: the depth chart. But I think somewhere midway through the

642
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: season Randall takes over and I think he gets the

643
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: bulk of those carries. But I do think it's going

644
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,479
Speaker 1: to be when I think, you know, fabs are right,

645
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: maybe two hundreds of two fifty for Randall, maybe somewhere

646
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: between a hundred and fifty to two hundred four for McFadden.

647
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 1: Whiz uh. You know, I just did an article for

648
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 1: about these two guys who to draft for NFL dot

649
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: comic find NFL dot com slash Fantasy. So promotion is

650
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: that what we're doing. Get up on the big stage

651
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 1: in the podcast, Let's do it? Uh And Fabs right,

652
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: Josphrandal has that explosion that you like to see he's

653
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: got that game breaking speed. He had like six five

654
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: yard touchdown run against the Redskins store at the end

655
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: of the season, he had that forty yard or um

656
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks of the Jaguars. Um. But I was surprised.

657
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: I watched everyone of Darren mcfens carries this past year,

658
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: and the I think the hate has gone a little

659
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: too far on run dmc as slow and old. Like

660
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: we said, we were surprised hen bust all these things.

661
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 1: The poor guy. You said, patchwork offensive line, that was generous.

662
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: He was getting beat like he starts something in the

663
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: backfield by by opposing defenders, and when he did actually

664
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 1: get holes to run through, sometimes he seemed so shocked

665
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: that he didn't know where to go. In other times

666
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: his instincts would kick in that we saw back in

667
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 1: the day at Arkansas and even when he kind of

668
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: had those couple of big years and around the era

669
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: and he was looking good. He doesn't have that game

670
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: breaking speed, but he has the vision and power to

671
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 1: bul people over and finished. Noone couldn't argue that he's

672
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: not a talented guy. He's a very talented guy. He

673
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: can't really do much with the talent when you're in

674
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,439
Speaker 1: the train. He played when he played fourteen games last year,

675
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 1: but he split carries with Maurice Jones drew and he

676
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: didn't see the lion's share of the carries there. It

677
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 1: wasn't like a few years ago when he was expected

678
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: to see two fifty plus carries and he broke down,

679
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: you know what, like two over two times and or twice.

680
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: I think he's only had over two. We've talked about

681
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: this before on this very podcast, and I've said this,

682
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: I think Joe Randall will carry the load, carry carry

683
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 1: the mail early on, and believe it or not, I

684
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 1: really think Darren McFadden is gonna have fresher legs at

685
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 1: the end of the year. I think he's gonna because

686
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 1: of his light and workload early. I think he will

687
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: be fresher late. I love Darren McFadden later in the

688
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,479
Speaker 1: year actually, and Joe Randall early. Man. You know what, Darren,

689
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,439
Speaker 1: This whole Darren McFadden situation reminds me of we talked

690
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: about it. How about Randy Moss leaving the Oakland Raiders.

691
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: It's sometimes, man, when you find that new environment and again,

692
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: of course, a much better offensive line, a lot more

693
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,240
Speaker 1: talent surrounding him at the quarterback, of the wide receiver

694
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 1: at the tight end, a lot more talent surrounding the guy.

695
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 1: I could see Darren McFadden actually breaking out this year,

696
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 1: as crazy as that sounds. He's going from the Raiders

697
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 1: to the Cowboys. There's gonna be much higher expectations and

698
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be rejuvenated. And he's got a

699
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 1: fan of Jerry Jones man. Jerry Jones absolutely loves the

700
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 1: Arkansas loves Arkansas guys, and I could see, I really

701
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 1: can see Darren McFadden emerging on the back half of

702
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 1: the season as being uh. I won't go so far

703
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 1: as say a top ten running back, but a guy

704
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 1: that you can absolutely start weekend in week out and

705
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,479
Speaker 1: when you're the draft price for what's the draft price

706
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: right now for Darren McFadden is pretty cheap. I think

707
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: he's a little higher on NFL dot Com, but him

708
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: and handle are floating anywhere from his highest round four

709
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: to his lowest round ten and eleven. On Darren mcfatans

710
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: going his high I would never take Okay fatten, Okay

711
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: got it pricey for me, even as a Randall fan. Sure,

712
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 1: I would agree ranked as a twenty third running back.

713
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: I had to make fatten as forty one. Okay, there

714
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: you come, all right, So there you go. That's a

715
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 1: complete breakdown, I would say of the Dallas Cowboys running

716
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 1: back battle. Let's talk about guys who have a lot

717
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 1: of hype into this off season. Should we believe the

718
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: hype or is it a smoke screen? A Marii Cooper

719
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: he's a clear number one. He's got a quarterback with

720
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: a strong arm and no conscience. And Derek Carr Marii

721
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: Cooper hype trainer smoke screen. Marcus Grant will start with

722
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 1: the resident Oakland Raider fan. What alright a minute, he's

723
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: a Niner. I'm a Niner fan, but I have I have,

724
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 1: I have love in my heart for the race. The

725
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:55,280
Speaker 1: guy's got a Raiders starters jacket. Man, Well I did

726
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: that was a whole thing as a kid for another podcast. Okay,

727
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 1: got it. I can't. I can't relive that heartbreak right now. Anyway,

728
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 1: I am on board the I'm on board the train

729
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 1: for a Mariy Cooper. And I've said, I said hard

730
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 1: not to be man. I say, in the short term,

731
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: for this one year, I like Kevin White better just

732
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: because he doesn't have the pressure of expectation upon him

733
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 1: there in Chicago. But over the long haul, if you're

734
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: talking dynasty or keeper leagues, I love a Maria Cooper.

735
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 1: I love what what he can do and what his

736
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: his ceiling is in that radar offense, especially because I

737
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 1: like Derek Carr as well. I think I think both

738
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: these guys are destined to be really good players in

739
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,840
Speaker 1: this league for a very long time. So everything I've read,

740
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 1: uh and certainly having watched some tape of him at Alabama,

741
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: there's nothing that convinced to be he can't be outstanding.

742
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: So I am totally on board with this. I mean,

743
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: you at a certain point you wonder if it's just

744
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: all lip service when you keep hearing another like hyperbolic

745
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,399
Speaker 1: quote like the sky is the limit or he's gonna

746
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: be his shoes blah blah blah week after week. But

747
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 1: I mean, from what I watched on tape when he

748
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: was there, and from everything we're hearing and even little

749
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: bits of vines and things we're seeing, I mean, I

750
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 1: think I think he's he's gonna coming into that like

751
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: wide receiver two range, like you can draft him and

752
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: be and be happy. And I think I'll tell you what, man,

753
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: I think the only reason we're talking about Amari Cooper

754
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 1: at this point being possibly a smoke screen is because

755
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 1: he plays for the Silk Rent Plant and he was

756
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 1: there their first round pick fourth overall. However, of course,

757
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: of course they're gonna say he's, you know, a god

758
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: send on the football field. But I mean again that

759
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,760
Speaker 1: that the team obviously scares me because you know, Raider

760
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 1: Oakland is is a place where talent goes to die. Man.

761
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,840
Speaker 1: But Derek Carr, I think um is kind of reversing

762
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: that trend. And I do believe he's gonna have googly

763
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:39,399
Speaker 1: eyes for for Amari Cooper and uh, he should see

764
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: plenty of targets. I'm gonna say hype train as well. Yeah,

765
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: I'm on the train to with Cooper. His route running

766
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: is impressive. He's been compared to Tory Holt. Uh, he's

767
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 1: gonna compared to Julio Jones. Uh can stretch the field

768
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,760
Speaker 1: beach at the polished than Jones right coming out of Alabama. Correct,

769
00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: So this is this is a player who, specially after

770
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,959
Speaker 1: a campaign that saw so many young wide receivers go off.

771
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 1: I have him as a fifth round pick right now

772
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 1: the league somewhere in that neighborhood of uh low to

773
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: high three, somewhere there. Uh And if you can get

774
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: them there, I think you're gonna be very happy. And

775
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: what I do like is what Marcus said. Derek Carr

776
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 1: is the quarterback. They're not one of these, you know,

777
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 1: curtain jerkers or card jobbers, as Adam Rank likes to say.

778
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 1: Uh under center, hars got upside, he's got moxi, he's

779
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: got confidence, and he's got a hell of in arms. So,

780
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: like I said, he's got no conscience. I like Cooper

781
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 1: this year. He's gonna toss at fifty sixty times a game. Man,

782
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,879
Speaker 1: He's not gonna even have second thoughts about it. Love

783
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 1: mine that the NFL, in terms of what younger players

784
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: can do, it's evolving. It's a quicker process now. It's

785
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,839
Speaker 1: not getting in there and learning or a player for

786
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 1: a year or two before you make any fact. All right,

787
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 1: Davante Adams, speaking of young wide receiver, he's a second

788
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 1: year white out for Green Bay Pounds, good athlete man

789
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: and one of the most He's in one of the

790
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: most deadly offenses in football. The only problem. He's a

791
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: third option behind Jordy Nelson and Randall cop who they

792
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,720
Speaker 1: resigned to a very big deal. But man, the quotes

793
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: out of Green Bay, they cannot be more effusive in

794
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 1: praise in regards to Davante Adams. Hype trainers smoke screen

795
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 1: and will start with how about the whiz kid from Wisconsin?

796
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: Tell me hype trainer smoke screen for Davante Adams. I've

797
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,360
Speaker 1: wanted to be very like cautious with Adams this whole offseason, because,

798
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: like you said, he's got those great guys ahead of him.

799
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,319
Speaker 1: But uh, and Mike McCarthy even got dang buyer around

800
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: the NFL colleagues for saying the same stuff about Jared

801
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 1: Boykin last offseason, ready to make the leap. But when

802
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 1: number twelve starts dropping praise as highly as he has

803
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: about somebody like Adams, he's normally not wrong. The last

804
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: person he was saying this, speaking this highly of what's

805
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,399
Speaker 1: Randall's got a forty million dollar contract from them. Sure,

806
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 1: so I I like it. I'm still worried, you know,

807
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 1: there is worry. He could only get six yards and

808
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,239
Speaker 1: a few touchdowns in that offense as high powered as

809
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: it is. However, like we've mentioned it on his podcast

810
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, there's a chance that those

811
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 1: three guys could all get a thousand yards and a

812
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: slew of touchdowns with Roger slinging the rock. So I

813
00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 1: love taking Adams. His ADP is you know, in the

814
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 1: later rounds like fourteen or fifteen, if I can get

815
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,279
Speaker 1: him as a fourth or fifth wide receiver, one, yeah,

816
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,439
Speaker 1: you should target him as in that area four player

817
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 1: to start likely of five. I think the thing that

818
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: would concern me about Adams is, as the boy Wonder

819
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,799
Speaker 1: mentioned that would be you, Alex, that there's a lot

820
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 1: of targets. Uh, you didn't even mention because something less.

821
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 1: He's a guy who can catch thirty or forty passes

822
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 1: out of the backfield. And then you add Cob and

823
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 1: then you add Nelson. So Adams is one of those

824
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,360
Speaker 1: guys who, like in the first three weeks, is going

825
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 1: to have one huge game and everyone is gonna jump

826
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 1: on bandwagon, and three weeks he's gonna disappear and there's

827
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,880
Speaker 1: just not enough balls to go around in that offense. Uh.

828
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: For for Adams to be a consistently good Fantasy wide receiver,

829
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,760
Speaker 1: certainly draftable and if anything had ever happened, God Forbids

830
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: and Nelson or Cobb and they were forced this time,

831
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 1: Adams would be one of the most popular players picked

832
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 1: up off the way. And that's and that's what I

833
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: would point to. You know, if you're if you're in

834
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: the thirteenth round, take Davanta because you know health is

835
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: not guaranteed in the NFL. It's kind of like the

836
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 1: same situation as Cody Lattimer is in with Denver. Right,

837
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 1: You've got d t and you've got Sanders ahead of them,

838
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: but there's talent there. He'll put up a couple of

839
00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 1: good games and if one of those two wide receivers

840
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:44,320
Speaker 1: should go down, boom, huge, huge zone. All right, Josh

841
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 1: Hill around. The NFL has Saints tight and Josh Hill

842
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 1: cracking into their top ten, making the leap players. Jimmy

843
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: Graham gone. It's a team that still has Drew Brees

844
00:42:55,640 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 1: and offensive genius mastermind Sean Peyton. He'll enter his third

845
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: season six five to fifty. Peyton has been raving about

846
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 1: this kid, raving about athleticism this offseason. Thirty eight inch vertical,

847
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:14,000
Speaker 1: eleven foot broad jump and keep my six eleven foot broad.

848
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 1: That's impressive. Man. Payton said. Hill is better in every

849
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 1: category than every tight end in the draft this year.

850
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 1: That's why they did not address that in the draft.

851
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: What do we make of Josh Hill, hype train or

852
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: smoke screen? Marcus Grant. My lungs, I feel them filling

853
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: with smoke. It's hard, getting hard to breathe. I mean, look,

854
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:41,759
Speaker 1: just because Jimmy Grant leaves for Seattle and there's a

855
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 1: void there, I don't expect Joshill to just jump in

856
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 1: and suddenly the the You know, that part of the

857
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 1: offense is going to just keep on going without skipping

858
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: a beat, you know. And I believe Josh Ill is

859
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,240
Speaker 1: extremely athletic and probably can make some plays in that offense.

860
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 1: But you're gonna tell me that that he's just going

861
00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 1: to run in and all of a sudden become the superstar.

862
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: I'm not buying it just yet. I mean, he's a

863
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 1: guy who still has to prove himself and certainly, knowing

864
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: how shallow the fantasy tight end position is, I'm not

865
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 1: rushing out to go and plug in Josh. You'll expecting

866
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: superstar numbers out of the guy. I just I think

867
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,880
Speaker 1: this is a clear case of a coach really pumping

868
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: up one of his guys right now. You know what

869
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 1: he could be is like a lesser Duyne Allen because

870
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: he's gonna target it in the red zone. He's gonna

871
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: be targeted in the red zone. Right. Five touchdowns, Uh,

872
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,280
Speaker 1: and he only had fourteen catches. That's what I'm saying.

873
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 1: The yardage, that's what I love. The yardage and the

874
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 1: receptions aren't gonna be there like they were for Jimmy

875
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 1: Graham because Graham is a vastly superior athlete. But opportunities

876
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: in the red zone could lead you to potentially use

877
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: Hill not as your number one tight end. I agree

878
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 1: with Marcus there, but maybe as a streaming tight end

879
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,439
Speaker 1: option because a lot of people will be streaming tight

880
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,800
Speaker 1: ends are as a number two because most prominently because

881
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: of his access to of the red zone that Drew

882
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,840
Speaker 1: Brees will be looking for him. And I wouldn't be

883
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:06,359
Speaker 1: surprised if he had eight or nine touchdowns this year.

884
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,799
Speaker 1: I just don't think the yards and the receptions. So

885
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: he's not a lesser Dayne Allen. He's Chandler that maybe Chandler,

886
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: he could be a better Scotch he's a rich man

887
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:23,360
Speaker 1: Scott Chandlers. Now, you know, I like Josh Ill. I

888
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 1: like the opportunity. Like you said, five touchdowns on what

889
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: four team catchers. I mean so so so clearly Drew Brees.

890
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: The offense at least is looking for him. I mean,

891
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: they've got some plays designed where he can make opportunities

892
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 1: in the red zone. So I like that. I like

893
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:41,440
Speaker 1: that about him. And the fact of the matter is

894
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 1: tight end fabs. You've mentioned a million times man the

895
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 1: tight end position this year outside the top four or

896
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: five guys, it's an absolute train wreck because anybody, any

897
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 1: one of these guys, any any number of guys could

898
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: break out. And to me, if you're waiting on on

899
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: tight end as you should be, if you miss out

900
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: on the top four or five, guy, just wait, just

901
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 1: wait till the fourteen fifteen round. See who else is there.

902
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:08,399
Speaker 1: If Josh Hill is there in the fourteenth round, thirteen round, heck,

903
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,280
Speaker 1: if you want to reach for him in the twelfth

904
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 1: by all means, can I like him? Can I give

905
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 1: you one quick uh stat before we go to to

906
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 1: Alex there. I wrote a column today that you can

907
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 1: find on the website. Over overall of the top ten

908
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: tight ends last year based on Fantasy Points. Half of

909
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 1: them were drafted after the twelfth round. The twelve to

910
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 1: fifteen numbers eleven to twenty. Uh, you saw most of

911
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 1: those guys picked up off the waiver wax or not

912
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: or drafted in the fifteen round. Yes, so that's what

913
00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 1: you're looking at. It's it's very, very ugly, and hopefully

914
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 1: zach Ertz can break out like we've all predicted him

915
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 1: to do Travis Kelsey. But if they don't, tight end

916
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:54,919
Speaker 1: is gonna be like the new kicker. You just gonna wait.

917
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 1: I agree, I And that's what I'm saying. Look real quick,

918
00:46:58,200 --> 00:46:59,719
Speaker 1: like what you're saying the late rounds guys that are

919
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: going to of him on NFL dot com right now,

920
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 1: Eric Ebron, Larry Denell, Kyle Rudolph, he Heath Miller. I'd

921
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,879
Speaker 1: rather take a chance on the younger, more athletic Hill

922
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: than any of those guys in a good offense. I

923
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 1: love Look, I love Eric Ebron. You know he's an athletic.

924
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: He didn't go to call, but he's a freak. And

925
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,359
Speaker 1: he's got a strong on quarterback in Matt Stafford as well.

926
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,439
Speaker 1: But he's got competition there. I don't know if Josh

927
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: Hill has a lot of competition. Who's he battling right

928
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 1: now for that tight end? Come on, man, Ben Watson,

929
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 1: he's got good things to say about you. Negative Ben

930
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 1: Watson's a block and tight end. That's just about Ben

931
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 1: Watson sniffed a little bit of fantasy Gale earlier. One

932
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: last uh. If Um Hill was he is athletic, we

933
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:47,839
Speaker 1: don't want to discount that. But if he was as

934
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:49,920
Speaker 1: great as Jimmy Graham, as Drew Brees would have not

935
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 1: posted a son a picture of his son crying and

936
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 1: a Jimmy Graham jersey, it would have been with a

937
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,359
Speaker 1: thumbs up in a Josh Hill. So we know there's

938
00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:01,359
Speaker 1: gonna be a step down the chill. I think, Um,

939
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: I think eight hundred yards is probably his ceiling. Eight

940
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 1: hundred yards and and I want to say eight touchdowns.

941
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:08,719
Speaker 1: How about I want to be surprised if you had

942
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: more touchdowns than than the yarded thing, eight or nine touchdowns,

943
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 1: and I'd be projecting him more for like five or

944
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 1: six hundred yards somewhere in that area. How about this

945
00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 1: new segment, can you take me, dude? As long as

946
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: they're singing it and you're not co so you should.

947
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 1: We've got glass in here that shattering. No, I'm all

948
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,800
Speaker 1: the damn good. You know who's in this band, Ted Nugent,

949
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 1: but we all love even though he's a psycho. Tommy

950
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 1: Shaw from Sticks, Jack Blades from Night Ranger. Okay remember him?

951
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: Night Rangers sounds like an awesome Michael card Alone from

952
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,880
Speaker 1: He's I think he's a Leonard Skinner. Now, who are

953
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: for people who have never been in my kitchen? We

954
00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: should start our own fantasy live hair metal band. And

955
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:04,399
Speaker 1: okay on the lead, I'm a hundred the lead. There's

956
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 1: no no question about that. Look I have first of all,

957
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 1: look you take me into a karaoke Okay, I will.

958
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,880
Speaker 1: I will if you go into the karaoke, I am leaving.

959
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:16,080

961
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 1: pull the curtain back. I promised the fantasy team that

962
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 1: that I would take all expenses paid on me. I'm

963
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,839
Speaker 1: gonna take the fancy team out. We're gonna do uh,

964

970
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 1: know when we're gonna do it, because, like I said,

971
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 1: my shoulders like Winter and Game of Thrones. It is coming.

972
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 1: And you have a small child, it takes yeah, yeah,

973
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:55,400
Speaker 1: a little baby baby is ready for the main stage yet.

974
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: And you know what's so funny? Though she loved to sing,

975
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 1: all right, she loves bring it Riley Curry, all right,

976
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 1: can you take me higher? It's a little set. When

977
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 1: we got a new one, it's basically, you know, not

978
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: very high profile. How about this unsexy fantasy guys? Uh?

979
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 1: That produced? Sure? Why not? That produced last last year?

980
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:19,479
Speaker 1: They weren't necessarily game breakers, but can you trust them?

981
00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 1: This year? Are these guys that can take your fantasy team,

982
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,760
Speaker 1: provide you stability, and take you to the next level.

983
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 1: We'll start with Alfred Morse, the much maligned Freddie Morris,

984
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,799
Speaker 1: probably the king of the unsexy man, you know, And

985
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 1: I don't know why when I see him run I

986
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,360
Speaker 1: see a lot of talent there. He had almost rushing

987
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 1: yards last year at eight touchdowns, which was a boost

988
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: for him. What do we think of Alfred Morris? Can? Can?

989
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 1: Can he be a stable presence in your running back corps? Sure,

990
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 1: it's not about him, it's about the It's not about

991
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:55,919
Speaker 1: the coaches around him. I mean, he's like that. He's

992
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 1: the guy from varsity Blues all the way down to

993
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: the five or you know, the three yard line, and

994
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 1: then they take him out and somebody else scores the touchdown.

995
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 1: I mean, my Christmas wishless last year included getting Alfred

996
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 1: Morris goal line carries, you know. So it's not about

997
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris. He could totally be that guy if they

998
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:13,719
Speaker 1: decide they want to give him the ball down near

999
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 1: the goal line, because yardage wise he's fine. He just

1000
00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 1: doesn't get in the end zone. Yeah. Uh, Darrell Young,

1001
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:28,360
Speaker 1: he's on everyone's hate at least now you're Matt Jones.

1002
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 1: Now would be the new Roy Hallou. But I mean

1003
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,759
Speaker 1: Morris has been a top fifteen back every year that

1004
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,440
Speaker 1: he's played in the NFL. Had that huge rookie year

1005
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 1: where he was in the top five. Uh, not gonna

1006
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: be there again, but he's a fine RB two. I

1007
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:46,720
Speaker 1: think what happens is that people look at the negative

1008
00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 1: they get about the positive times with Alfred Morris, and

1009
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 1: they remember that he lost goal line carries here and there.

1010
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, the numbers show

1011
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 1: that he is exactly what he is. He is a

1012
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 1: good RB two. He's a mid level level RB two.

1013
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 1: He's gonna come off the board in one of the

1014
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 1: first five rounds. He's not the sexiest player in the world,

1015
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,400
Speaker 1: as we all mentioned, but he's safe and he is

1016
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 1: a guy who's going to produce for you, especially against

1017
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:14,960
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I know this personally Cowboys. He loves all

1018
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 1: over the Cowboys. That's true. But Morris isn't going to

1019
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 1: break your fantasy team at all. It's not gonna make

1020
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,359
Speaker 1: it a championship contender, but it's not gonna hurt it either.

1021
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 1: He's the kind of fantasy player you can bring home

1022
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 1: to mom for Christmas. Right. Uh. Frank Gore rushing yards

1023
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: last year despite the you know the eyes that was

1024
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,879
Speaker 1: on the wall for Frank Gore thirty two years old. Uh,

1025
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 1: not a lot of touchdowns last year. Four touchdowns, But

1026
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna much much better offense this year. Expected to

1027
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: at least early on, be the lead dunk for Indianapolis. Uh,

1028
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:51,760
Speaker 1: and Andrew Luck? There, what do we expect from Frank Gore?

1029
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 1: Can he take you higher? Yes? Uh? And you guys

1030
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 1: know this. I don't love running backs who are thirty

1031
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 1: and over. No, I don't. There's a couple of him

1032
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 1: I really like this year. One of them is Adrian Peterson.

1033
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 1: The other one is Frank Gore. Didn't you know that

1034
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 1: Gore ran against eight or more defenders a league high

1035
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 1: seventies six times lash. It's amazing. You know what's gonna

1036
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:15,279
Speaker 1: happen If teams do that to Andrew Luck, He's slice them.

1037
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,359
Speaker 1: Philip dorsets it running streaks on the side. I don't

1038
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:22,359
Speaker 1: buy into Dan Herron being a threat for Gore. Gore

1039
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 1: is going to handle the mail as much as he

1040
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:28,160
Speaker 1: possibly can, maybe up to two eighty five carries this year.

1041
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,960
Speaker 1: He's gonna see the goal line work a mod Bradshaws

1042
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:32,839
Speaker 1: out of the picture. I think Gore is a high

1043
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:36,680
Speaker 1: RB two interesting. I can't see him carrying that workload. Man.

1044
00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:39,439
Speaker 1: That's a big word, dude. Every year We've been saying

1045
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 1: it for three years. This is the year is the

1046
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:46,880
Speaker 1: inconvenient truth. Every year we try to write him off.

1047
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 1: I got burned by Gore years ago and I was like,

1048
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:50,360
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna draft you. And then he went and

1049
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 1: got a thousand yards and eight touchdowns. I'm like, I'm

1050
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: not gonna draft you, Frank Gore, and nobody did. The

1051
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:55,800
Speaker 1: next like three years after that, he got a thousand

1052
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:57,799
Speaker 1: yards and eight touchdown. So you put him in this

1053
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 1: Colts offense. Like Fab said, I think he's another one

1054
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:02,239
Speaker 1: of those guys that you're not gonna get a lot

1055
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 1: of oozer odds if you draft Frank Gore in the

1056
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: fourth or fifth round of your fantasy draft, but you're

1057
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,719
Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of ten to fifteen point weeks. Uh,

1058
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 1: and that's gonna be great for your team. Keep this

1059
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:15,480
Speaker 1: in mind, a mod Bradshaw who's broken down an injury prone,

1060
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 1: was a very solid fan before he was injured, and

1061
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:24,200
Speaker 1: a top ten guy. Let's be honest. Boom Heron had

1062
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,920
Speaker 1: his share of really good games for the Colts and

1063
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: for fantasy owners. I magine what Gore can do same offense.

1064
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:33,520
Speaker 1: I'm worried that Gore will break down. I see I

1065
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:36,479
Speaker 1: just I knew you were gonna say, there's someone's gonna

1066
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 1: say that, and I look and really, over the course

1067
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 1: of his career, the guy's been healthy. I mean his

1068
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:44,880
Speaker 1: worst year was he played eleven games. He has played

1069
00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:47,719
Speaker 1: sixteen games each of the last four seasons. This guy,

1070
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 1: he's going to outlive us all. You know, this rank

1071
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: Door is going to outlive all. It's gonna be him

1072
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: and Brett Farve just playing NFL football basically on you know,

1073
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 1: on big Old Ranch. They're both gonna be dry tractors

1074
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:02,879
Speaker 1: though and throwing each other the football. That's it. That's it.

1075
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 1: I love it, man, all right. How about Danny Woodhead.

1076
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,160
Speaker 1: Not a lot of fanfair with Danny Woodhead, but obviously

1077
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 1: suffered a cast dropt injury last year, but went healthy

1078
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,280
Speaker 1: sixteen games with the Chargers two years ago. Seventy six reception,

1079
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:17,880
Speaker 1: seventy six six hundred yards, six touchdowns. He had a

1080
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:21,959
Speaker 1: thousand total yards and eight total touchdowns two years ago.

1081
00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 1: What do we make of Danny Woodhead. I'll start this

1082
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:26,239
Speaker 1: went off because I was one to put him on

1083
00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 1: the rundown for this. Uh, Danny Woodheads one of those

1084
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,800
Speaker 1: people that is easy to overlook because he's not getting

1085
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:33,839
Speaker 1: the highlight plays. He's not getting all the touches he's

1086
00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:40,760
Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like that deserved a rim shot. However, yeah, however,

1087
00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:44,240
Speaker 1: three last five, no no shots at the short guys.

1088
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: You're not exactly kareem yourself. Uh. Three of the last

1089
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:50,959
Speaker 1: four years wood had has been a top twenty five

1090
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,319
Speaker 1: fantasy back in standard scoring, not even PPR. So that's

1091
00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 1: why he's when we're talking about you know, maybe he

1092
00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:58,080
Speaker 1: can't take you higher, but when we're talking about his

1093
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,320
Speaker 1: unsexy stars that can be a weekly contributor, Danny woodhead

1094
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 1: as a flex or, if you know, a bye week

1095
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:05,759
Speaker 1: guy as your RB three, can I have a lot

1096
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:07,399
Speaker 1: of value when he gets back into that offense. I mean,

1097
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:09,560
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon's there is going to be the early down

1098
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,240
Speaker 1: bell cow. But they love Danny woodhen he's a fantastic

1099
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: football player. So he's he's p f T commenters favorite football.

1100
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 1: Of course, he's a road grader, road grader, lunch pale

1101
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:21,839
Speaker 1: guy coming in and punching the clock. But he's gonna

1102
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 1: put up some some numbers, has some fantasy points. Yeah.

1103
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:27,920
Speaker 1: The reason and I look at his totals, and his

1104
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 1: totals are always pretty good. Yeah. The hard thing for

1105
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 1: me is figuring out when do you start Danny Woodhead, Like,

1106
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 1: when and where do you put him into your lat

1107
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,520
Speaker 1: That's my problem because I mean, if you get you

1108
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 1: a touchdown or two, then it was certainly worth it.

1109
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:41,520
Speaker 1: But then if he doesn't get you a touchdown, you're

1110
00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 1: left you're looking at about yards, right, you know, it's

1111
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 1: like thirty seven scrimmage yards, which doesn't do like the

1112
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:50,319
Speaker 1: running back version of Eddie Royal. Yeah, basically, so, I mean,

1113
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 1: if he's find him in the right way, yeah, he

1114
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,640
Speaker 1: probably is. Even else scores five touchdowns in the first

1115
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,319
Speaker 1: three weeks and then you never hear from him again.

1116
00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 1: Kevin White owners keep him on the bench, d rog

1117
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,400
Speaker 1: get his touchdowns out of the way, then put him in. So,

1118
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:06,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I do like you like what Danny Woodhead

1119
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 1: eventually gets to. It's just the heartache of trying to

1120
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:10,719
Speaker 1: figure out when he's going to get you those numbers. Yeah,

1121
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,400
Speaker 1: And I think it's a it's a different situation for

1122
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,400
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead this year. You know, he's got a clear

1123
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:18,120
Speaker 1: lead guy uh In, Melvin Gordon there all those years

1124
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:21,120
Speaker 1: that he's put up all of those aggregate stats. I can't.

1125
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,200
Speaker 1: I can't remember one backfield that had clarity in it.

1126
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:26,760
Speaker 1: He had Ryan Matthews ahead of him. Again, I can't

1127
00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:30,120
Speaker 1: think of one backfield that had clarity in it. Um,

1128
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:33,120
Speaker 1: it's just not He's always been in a situation where

1129
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:36,959
Speaker 1: there hasn't been that much running back talent um, which

1130
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 1: opens the door for a very versatile guy like Danny

1131
00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:42,280
Speaker 1: Woodhead to kind of run into the slot to steal

1132
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 1: a couple carries here and there. I just think this

1133
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:46,920
Speaker 1: year's gonna be the year where it all catches up

1134
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,400
Speaker 1: to him. And and oh, by the way, he's coming

1135
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: back from a pretty catastrophic injury as well. So um,

1136
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:56,080
Speaker 1: I would I would not recommend Danny Woodhead. I I

1137
00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 1: can't even see. I can't even recommend drafting the guy,

1138
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 1: although I'm sure my other panelist here would say twelve round,

1139
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,200
Speaker 1: you know, maybe take a flyer on him. It makes

1140
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 1: you make sure wonder how the Jets cut him four

1141
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 1: or five. And then he went to New England and

1142
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 1: put said Jets Jets. Yes, so not that high on

1143
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 1: Danny would hit. But we move on. Vincent Jackson a

1144
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 1: thousand yards last year. He's thirty two years old, but

1145
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,920
Speaker 1: still a big target, great hands, he's still got okay speed,

1146
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,800
Speaker 1: He's got a much better quarterback. What do we make

1147
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: of Vincent Jackson? We keep throwing out that much better

1148
00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:33,920
Speaker 1: for a guy that's never played a snap in the NFL.

1149
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:36,920
Speaker 1: As someone who owned Vincent Jackson in one of my

1150
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 1: seven thousand leagues last year, let me tell you that

1151
00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 1: over a few players gave me bigger headaches. You know,

1152
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 1: he would give you like nine yards and a touchdown,

1153
00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: which is not very many Fantasy points. If it wouldn't

1154
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: for the touchdown, he had given you a stinker, a

1155
00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:57,400
Speaker 1: bigger stinker. With that being said, I think uh dirt

1156
00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:59,240
Speaker 1: Cutter is gonna want to utilize him a little bit

1157
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,240
Speaker 1: more in the slide. Mike Evans is going to be

1158
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,640
Speaker 1: the clearer go to guy there. I have Jackson right

1159
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:08,919
Speaker 1: there at the low two, high three, and I'd prefer

1160
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 1: him as a high three in that offense. I don't

1161
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: want any part of Vincent Jackson because I've I've had

1162
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 1: those same headaches that FABS has had. I mean, if

1163
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:18,760
Speaker 1: you like roller coasters and Vincent Jackson is the guy

1164
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,640
Speaker 1: for you, because he's up one week, then he's down

1165
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks, then he'll have, you know,

1166
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 1: a two touchdown week after that. It's just he'sn't He's

1167
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:30,880
Speaker 1: a guy who really is the epitome of you know,

1168
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:33,160
Speaker 1: you look at the numbers, and the numbers themselves are

1169
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 1: misleading because it's how he gets those numbers. I know

1170
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,200
Speaker 1: our Guy Franchise, Matt Francisco has kind of wrote about

1171
00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:42,560
Speaker 1: this recently, guys whose numbers don't necessarily add up to

1172
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,280
Speaker 1: what they produced, And I think Vincent Jackson maybe the

1173
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:47,960
Speaker 1: chief of those guys where you know, you look at

1174
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,880
Speaker 1: his numbers a couple of years ago, twelve hundred yards,

1175
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:53,440
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns, but he was so up and down all

1176
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: year it was just hard to predict him a two hundred,

1177
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 1: two hundred fifty yard game or something around there in

1178
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:01,120
Speaker 1: that twelve yard campaign too. So no, you're right, it's

1179
01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:03,680
Speaker 1: it's one week. He can absolutely be a game breaker

1180
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 1: in another week a stinker. As Michael Fabiana would say,

1181
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 1: what does the Whiz think about Vincent Jackson here? I

1182
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:12,520
Speaker 1: think the hate has gone a little too far. As

1183
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,720
Speaker 1: I said earlier in the show on Vince and Jackson,

1184
01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:16,640
Speaker 1: I think he can still be a proven contributor and

1185
01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:18,680
Speaker 1: people might start keying in on Mike Evans a little

1186
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 1: more and a savvy vet like Vince and Jackson is

1187
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,240
Speaker 1: gonna be able to get open and still produce. I'm

1188
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 1: with Fabs. I'd rather have him in that wide receiver

1189
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 1: three range right now is a DP speaking of the

1190
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:29,320
Speaker 1: hate going too far on NFL dot com, Where's he going?

1191
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:33,440
Speaker 1: Is round eleven? Well, so, uh, you can definitely take

1192
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:37,000
Speaker 1: I could take him as a four. Yeah, I I

1193
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,760
Speaker 1: like him in a round. I like him in around

1194
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 1: you know, eleven, twelve. Here's the thing I'm so, I'm

1195
01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:45,200
Speaker 1: so biased towards younger players that a guy who's thirty

1196
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 1: two years old and we've seen up and down production

1197
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:50,200
Speaker 1: throughout his entire career, It's hard for me to get

1198
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,520
Speaker 1: on board, which is why I probably would peg him

1199
01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:57,040
Speaker 1: down there at round eleven or twelve, only because in

1200
01:00:57,320 --> 01:01:04,160
Speaker 1: rounds I'm probably taken upside guys, um, Vincent Jackson, You're right,

1201
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 1: I mean, look, he's gonna he's thirty two years old. Again,

1202
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 1: in my opinion, I think he's got a much better

1203
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 1: quarterback and dirt cutter is gonna be in a much

1204
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 1: more quick hitting offense. He's gonna pose a problem. Uh,

1205
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 1: in the red zone. I guarantee it because they don't

1206
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:21,400
Speaker 1: have very much of a running game. And Vincent Jackson

1207
01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 1: down there, he's he's gonna be a load for somebody. Man.

1208
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:30,240
Speaker 1: So look, I think eight hundred yards eight touchdowns totally doable.

1209
01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:34,200
Speaker 1: It's just he's a good flex, not a great wide receiver.

1210
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,240
Speaker 1: Alex Vincent Jackson could easily be my Frank Gore, the

1211
01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:41,640
Speaker 1: guy passed on and he just puts regret Franks listening,

1212
01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. How about Roddy White talked about aging wide

1213
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,560
Speaker 1: receivers here, thirty three years old, He's battled injuries all

1214
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 1: last year. Nine hundred yards, eight touchdowns though he was

1215
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 1: he was all right, Roddy White, is he a contributor

1216
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 1: that will continue to produce unsexy but you know, steady

1217
01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:03,600
Speaker 1: numbers next year? I think so. Um. I was one

1218
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 1: who kind of nominated him for this list simply because

1219
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 1: I was looking up some other things and I happened

1220
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 1: to come across Roddy White's numbers last from last season

1221
01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,480
Speaker 1: and looked at them, realized they weren't as bad as

1222
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 1: I thought they were. Seven touchdowns. I mean, he's not

1223
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:17,760
Speaker 1: He's not a wide receiver one anymore. I think those

1224
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:20,080
Speaker 1: days are pretty much passed with Julio Jones being there

1225
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:23,640
Speaker 1: and just being a superstud. But I think the Falcons

1226
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:24,920
Speaker 1: are probably gonna put the ball in the air a

1227
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: little bit more of this year. I think Matt Ryan

1228
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:29,000
Speaker 1: is and we kind of know who he is, but

1229
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 1: he's not a bad quarterback. He spreads the ball around well.

1230
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 1: And I think Roddy White is a guy who you

1231
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:37,040
Speaker 1: can count on four again nine yards, maybe creeps up

1232
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,240
Speaker 1: on a thousand yards, gets you, you know, six to

1233
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 1: eight touchdowns. That's not Those aren't bad numbers for you know,

1234
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,360
Speaker 1: a second or third wide receiver on your roster. And

1235
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 1: I think Roddy White can still be that guy. He's

1236
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:50,600
Speaker 1: He's in the Vincent Jackson category. They're like, from a

1237
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:55,280
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective, guys who were once number ones who slid

1238
01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 1: into the number two tier and now you're looking at

1239
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 1: them as frees. Yeah, Roddy has a little more PPR appeal,

1240
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:12,240
Speaker 1: but still three and probably drafted eighth round somewhere around. Yeah.

1241
01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:15,919
Speaker 1: I was gonna say yeah, seven, Like I said seven, eight, nine.

1242
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:19,840
Speaker 1: Man savvy drafters are taken upside guys. The problem with

1243
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,000
Speaker 1: Vincent Jackson Roddy White. They don't provide you any upside.

1244
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,560
Speaker 1: What's the upside of Roddy White? I mean really seven

1245
01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:28,680
Speaker 1: touchdown up not? I mean upside is that he plays

1246
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:33,800
Speaker 1: a full sears and ten touchdowns again but who really? Yeah,

1247
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 1: really in that offense and what And I said, that's

1248
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:40,440
Speaker 1: the upset that could happen. Guys like Reggie Wayne posted

1249
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 1: out in sant numbers with a good quarterback when he

1250
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,520
Speaker 1: was older. He's also got Julio Jones eating up all

1251
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:47,760
Speaker 1: the double coverage in the world opposite him, but also

1252
01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,960
Speaker 1: all the targets as well. He's still he's still had

1253
01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:53,360
Speaker 1: a hundred five targets. Last year's busted up Roddy White. Yeah, yeah,

1254
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:55,800
Speaker 1: he was very injured last year, No question, he battled

1255
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:57,520
Speaker 1: through it too. He was tough. Plus he's been kind

1256
01:03:57,560 --> 01:03:59,280
Speaker 1: to in the past to tell us if he's injured

1257
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:03,520
Speaker 1: and not right, if I don't practice, I'm not account

1258
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:06,400
Speaker 1: for something. Does I do associate that? And also keep

1259
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,160
Speaker 1: in mind too that he missed a couple of games

1260
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 1: last year. He was banged up for a little bit.

1261
01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:14,800
Speaker 1: And um, I mean he's he's thirty three years old,

1262
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:16,960
Speaker 1: so he's not ancient. I mean he's not at that

1263
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,920
Speaker 1: Reggie Wayne age where it was ready, where he was

1264
01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:23,480
Speaker 1: ready to physically break down. And he's in a good

1265
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:26,800
Speaker 1: offense that's gonna score a lot of points. I would

1266
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,680
Speaker 1: not be shocked if he had eighty thousand and seven touchdowns.

1267
01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,880
Speaker 1: That puts him right in the number three conversation. That's

1268
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:35,960
Speaker 1: an excellent flex, There's no question about it. All Right,

1269
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:38,280
Speaker 1: we move on Marcus Colston, thirty two years old. He's

1270
01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:41,880
Speaker 1: seen a decline at targets, reception, and yards for three

1271
01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:47,360
Speaker 1: consecutive seasons. Nine yards, five touchdowns last year. Do we

1272
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:50,320
Speaker 1: believe in Marcus Colston as a guy who can be

1273
01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:55,760
Speaker 1: a regular, uh steady fantasy contributor. I'm seeing a trend here.

1274
01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 1: The third wide receiver who used to be a one

1275
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 1: slid to its too and is now more of a

1276
01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:07,680
Speaker 1: three and all in the NFC South. I see Colston

1277
01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:11,200
Speaker 1: as a three honestly. Or maybe if you're like me

1278
01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 1: and you like to go running backs and wide receivers

1279
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:16,760
Speaker 1: UH predominantly in the first eight rounds, maybe you can

1280
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,480
Speaker 1: get him as a as a high four. But the

1281
01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:21,920
Speaker 1: same goes for Colston as goals for Cooks. Right, the

1282
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:25,000
Speaker 1: targets are gonna be there unless Breeze starts throwing at

1283
01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:27,040
Speaker 1: these no name young guys that that we talked about

1284
01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:31,439
Speaker 1: a little bit earlier. On Colston, to me, at least

1285
01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:35,560
Speaker 1: going into training camp, he's gonna be Breeze's most trusted option.

1286
01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 1: He's played a long time with Marcus Colson. They've made beautiful,

1287
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:43,600
Speaker 1: beautiful fantasy music together. And until Brandon Cooks makes that

1288
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:45,800
Speaker 1: next step, which I think he will make that leap

1289
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:49,960
Speaker 1: this year, Colson is gonna see some targets. Now. I

1290
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:51,960
Speaker 1: would be on the safe side with him, and again

1291
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:53,960
Speaker 1: I drafted him as a three or four somewhere in

1292
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:56,360
Speaker 1: that area. But there are gonna be weeks when Marcus

1293
01:05:56,400 --> 01:06:00,560
Speaker 1: Colston has some pretty good numbers. He's probably probably the

1294
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:02,960
Speaker 1: best red zone target that Breeze has right now in

1295
01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:05,640
Speaker 1: that offense. Would you agree, I would agree, I would agree.

1296
01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:08,680
Speaker 1: Other than handing the ball off to us, well of course,

1297
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,600
Speaker 1: um well how about this though ahead, So they just

1298
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:13,480
Speaker 1: just play long with me here, because when Marcus Colston

1299
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:14,959
Speaker 1: came in the league, I mean, he's a bigger guy.

1300
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:16,960
Speaker 1: He was a tied it, he was a tight end.

1301
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:19,200
Speaker 1: He was a tied in. And I mean, since we

1302
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:22,360
Speaker 1: all know that time is a flat circle. Um, what

1303
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:24,400
Speaker 1: are the chances that comes back around? And maybe he

1304
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,400
Speaker 1: doesn't regularly line up at tighten, but maybe the Saints

1305
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:31,840
Speaker 1: go on and Marcus Colston and he starts to be

1306
01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:34,320
Speaker 1: that big red zone target again that Jimmy Graham was

1307
01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:36,480
Speaker 1: when he man, I like I said, I like it

1308
01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:39,320
Speaker 1: when you guys started talking crazy, I like it. I

1309
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:41,520
Speaker 1: like that. Hey, you know, you put a little TV

1310
01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:43,880
Speaker 1: next to his name instead of the w R, and

1311
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:48,400
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the guy becomes a huge asset. Um,

1312
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:50,800
Speaker 1: here's the thing, man again. And we talked about upside.

1313
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:55,640
Speaker 1: I draft on upside considerably into a fault, I fully admit.

1314
01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,720
Speaker 1: But Marcus Colston again, we've seen a decline and targets

1315
01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:01,240
Speaker 1: receptions in yards with three can executive seasons. I see

1316
01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:04,200
Speaker 1: that trend continuing. You know, I don't think nine hundred

1317
01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:08,400
Speaker 1: look five touchdowns for him would be an absolute miracle.

1318
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 1: I don't see him getting even I see him maybe

1319
01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:14,080
Speaker 1: getting three touchdowns total all year. That's a guy that's

1320
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:16,960
Speaker 1: gonna be sitting on the waiver wire. Man. And if

1321
01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 1: you three three three, losing Colston, I'm sorry, losing Graham,

1322
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:28,440
Speaker 1: losing Stills. I just think because they're very bad feeling

1323
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:32,640
Speaker 1: about you know, nine, I think I think nine hundred

1324
01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:34,640
Speaker 1: is fine. I think three touchdown. How about we wag

1325
01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:37,200
Speaker 1: your a lunch. Sure, I'll do it. Do you what

1326
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:40,760
Speaker 1: do you want over? Under three? I mean, jeez, take it,

1327
01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:44,200
Speaker 1: take it. I can't even I can't even get it out.

1328
01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 1: I could see him scoring seven this year, I really could. Well,

1329
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 1: we'll set the well, we'll set it at three and

1330
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:54,120
Speaker 1: a half. Alright, is there any limit on what kind

1331
01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:59,120
Speaker 1: of lunch. Let's go with the sich. Well, we'll go

1332
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:01,439
Speaker 1: within walking sense of culver. How about that I could

1333
01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:06,560
Speaker 1: walk for a while. Um, well, we'll set it at

1334
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:08,040
Speaker 1: three and a half. You'll take the over on that,

1335
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: I'll take the under. Yes, let's do it, all right.

1336
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:12,800
Speaker 1: I like it. I think Marcus Colston his again the

1337
01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:15,240
Speaker 1: the zero up, so I feel lower on him than

1338
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:17,400
Speaker 1: the other two guys we just discussed. But I think

1339
01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:20,160
Speaker 1: you're going a little too low. You get your hating

1340
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:23,559
Speaker 1: a little heavy on Marcus. What do you n C. J. Spiller?

1341
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:25,719
Speaker 1: What did the Saints do to you? That's right, Yeah,

1342
01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:29,360
Speaker 1: that's right. I forget the Saints, man. No, I don't know.

1343
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:32,439
Speaker 1: I like to say but I'm intrigued by their younger

1344
01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:34,479
Speaker 1: guys a little bit, you know, Can I can I

1345
01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:36,960
Speaker 1: say that, first of all, I think market mark Ingram

1346
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:40,840
Speaker 1: will be a good play. Um, you know again nicktoone

1347
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:44,640
Speaker 1: these guys, Shantavius Jones. I don't know. I tend to

1348
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:46,639
Speaker 1: believe Drew Brees a little bit. Maybe he is gonna

1349
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:49,360
Speaker 1: make household names of some of these random guys. I

1350
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:51,599
Speaker 1: don't know. All I know is that I'm not drafting

1351
01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:54,280
Speaker 1: Marcus Colston. I just know that. That much. I do know.

1352
01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:55,840
Speaker 1: I should probably get out of here. All right, Fine,

1353
01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,120
Speaker 1: it's been rambling for a while time. We have all

1354
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 1: right here we go, all right for Marcus Grant, the
