1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 1: Wow, what is up? Welcome to another edition of the

2
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Football Show to me and your man, MG

3
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: Marcus Grants. Still vaccinated and dodging variants like NEO in

4
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: the matrix, and somehow this morning that feels a little

5
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: bit more valid. We got a big, busy, busy show

6
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: for you today, Producer Justin and the specialist alongside Michael f. Florio. Here.

7
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: You may have noticed we are at home. Normally we

8
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: are in studio for the Wednesday show. Uh. Florio, you

9
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: are a little bit under the weather. We've confirmed though,

10
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 1: it is not COVID nineteen, so hopefully you are doing

11
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: okay this morning. Yeah, I'm doing all right luckily. I mean,

12
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,319
Speaker 1: giving all the COVID that's in the news right now,

13
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: I'm pretty happy that that it is not that. And uh,

14
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 1: I hope to be, you know, back on set with

15
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: you guys very soon. All right, well, we look forward

16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: to that. I got plenty to get into. We're gonna

17
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: ask should we worry about Patrick Mahomes. We'll give you

18
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: some week nine sleeps and we will get into, of course,

19
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: every game on the Thursday and Sunday slate in the NFL.

20
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: But first let's dive into some fantasy headlines, because boy,

21
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: there are a whole lot of them. We woke up

22
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: to plenty of news this morning. The first one, the

23
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: big one, Uh, Aaron Rodgers has tested positive for COVID nineteen.

24
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: Will not play in Week nine against the Chiefs. He

25
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: is not vaccinated. Now, if you go back through his

26
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: previous statements, he had said earlier that he is immunized.

27
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: Those were the words he used, never said the words vaccinated.

28
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: A story is sort of still unfolding, but that he

29
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: is not considered vaccinated by the league. So he is

30
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: already out for this week's game against Kansas City. Hopefully

31
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: he is okay. We certainly hope the best for him,

32
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: that he's able to get back on the field sometime soon.

33
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: But in the short term, looking at the Packers and

34
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: what it means for fantasy, Uh, do you have any

35
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: confidence now with Jordan's love under center of starting anybody

36
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: besides say, Davonte Adams and Aaron Jones. Uh, there's one

37
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: other player of the three that I would start. I

38
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: would start a J. Dillon as well, and I think

39
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: that's kind of it. I have Davante Adams still as

40
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: a wide receiver one just because he is so talented,

41
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: but he himself is, you know, dealing with the with

42
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: some injuries there. Aaron Jones, I think it's just going

43
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: to continue to get a ton of volume as a

44
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: pass catcher and a runner. So he's a top five

45
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: back for me still. And then Dylan. We saw last

46
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: week when the Packers were shorthanded at receiver, they got

47
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: Dylan more involved. He's been utilized more as of like

48
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: getting double digit touches, and I believe it's four of

49
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: his last five games. So I have him as like

50
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: a high end RB three or flex option. I like him.

51
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: I think outside of those three though, you kind of

52
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: get away. I have Jordan Love at QB eighteen right now,

53
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 1: which I put on Twitter. Feels a little low due

54
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: to the matchup, but I I there's a lot of

55
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 1: unknown there with Jordan's Love, and there's a lot of

56
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks that have good matchups that I just feel

57
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: better about starting. And I think that unknown is why

58
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: I'm so hesitant to start anybody except Jones, Uh and

59
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: Adams and I guess maybe a j Dillon because of

60
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 1: what you said. It's always weird because when you get

61
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: backup quarterbacks they have different receivers that they are comfortable with.

62
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: It's the guys that they're used to working with in practice.

63
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: The problem is we're not really sure who that is

64
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: going to entail. You know that which of the other

65
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: wide receivers does he feel comfortable throwing the football too?

66
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: We know that when things break down the Packer offense,

67
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: usually you find Davante Adams and good things tend to happen.

68
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: So um, you know that, I think is where most

69
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: people feel comfortable starting. It's also sort of frustrating because

70
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: somebody pointed out, I think this was the second time

71
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: we were supposed to get Rogers versus Mahomes. We didn't

72
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: get it the first time because Mahomes had a knee

73
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: injury and ended up missing the game and it was

74
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: Matt Moore. Now we're not going to get it because

75
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has COVID nineteen uh and he's not going

76
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: to play. So hopefully, hopefully one day we get that matchup,

77
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: but apparently it's not gonna happen in Week nine. We'll

78
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: get it next year when Rodgers is with the Broncos. Yeah, exactly,

79
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: that's exactly. But we'll get it twice and then we'll

80
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: get twice a year when it when that happened. Uh

81
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: More COVID ninth news, se Kwon Barkley has tested positive

82
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: for COVID nineteen. Now he reportedly is vaccinated, which means

83
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: he just needs a pair of negative tests twenty four

84
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: hours apart to be available for this week's game against

85
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders. So we'll certainly monitor that because

86
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: that's gonna be another big story for both the Giants

87
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: and for fantasy football. But in the meantime, actually also

88
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: mean we were hoping that Sa Kuan would be back. Obviously,

89
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: he was nursing an injury, and we were hoping he

90
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: would be back and available this week. But it looks like,

91
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: at least for now, DeVante Booker may still be on

92
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 1: tap for Big Blue. Uh. If it is Booker, do

93
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: you have any confidence starting him, say as a flex

94
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: or as a third second, you know, second running back,

95
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: whatever whatever against the Raiders. Yeah, I would. I have

96
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: him ranked in the RB two range. I think that

97
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: he is someone that you can start. It's not the

98
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: toughest matchup against the Raiders. Plus we know that all

99
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: the running back volume is going to go to him.

100
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: If Sa Kwan is out. Last week, he had fifteen

101
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: carries but six targets caught five of them for sixty

102
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: five yards. And the Giants are even more banged up

103
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: at a receiver than they were last week. Sterling Shepherd

104
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: is supposed to expected to be out for a while.

105
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: We still don't know when we're gonna see Kenny Golladay again,

106
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: so I'm expecting a lot of past game volume to

107
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: go Bookers way again. I think you start him as

108
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: a top twenty running back this week. Yeah, I agree

109
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: with that. You know, the Raiders have been just so

110
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: so defensively this season, so I think I think you

111
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: can kind of plug him in there, especially in a

112
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: week where there are a few running backs that are

113
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: on by. We'll talk about that in just a bit.

114
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: So Booker still has a little bit of value as

115
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: long as he's the guy. But again, we'll keep an

116
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: eye on it. If se Kwan is able to play,

117
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 1: then certainly he's going to be in your starting lineup.

118
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 1: Uh not in your starting lineup at any point this

119
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: year is gonna be Michael Thomas, the Saints receiver we

120
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: had sort of been waiting on see when he was

121
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 1: going to come back. He has had a setback with

122
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: his ankle injury, and he is now reportedly going to

123
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: miss the rest of the season. This comes on the

124
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: heels of Jamis Winston suffering a serious knee injury that's

125
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: going to keep him out for the rest of the year.

126
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: So for Thomas now Floria, obviously, in season long leagues,

127
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: if you were holding on to him, uh, you were

128
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: definitely dropping him. I'm one of those people who was

129
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: sort of waiting for him to come back. So at

130
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: this point, you know you could put him back on

131
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: the waiver wire. But if you got him in Dynasty,

132
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: what are we doing because it's been a while since

133
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: we've seen him, and who knows if he's going to

134
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: even be in New Orleans next year. Yeah. I think

135
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: obviously in season when you're dropping him, I actually had

136
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 1: some claims in to get him. Luckily, in the leagues

137
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: that he was available, they won't run Wednesday night, So

138
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: get rid of any of those claims if you had

139
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: some in on Michael Thomas. I think in Dynasty, if

140
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,559
Speaker 1: you are a team that is competitive this year, going

141
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: for a chance at a championship, you trade him. I

142
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: think if you're a rebuilding team, he is a good

143
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: trade target to go after. Uh, we know the talent

144
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: that he has, you could buy him. I think now

145
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: his value is at an all time low, so I

146
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: would be trying to acquire him there. If you are

147
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: a team though that's struggling and you have Michael Thomas

148
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: hony Row, I think you just sit tight because you

149
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: don't want to sell him at an all time though.

150
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: You're not going for it this year, So I think

151
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: he is a type of player that you want on

152
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: a rebuilding roster, and on a contending roster, you want

153
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: to sell him for pieces that can help you right now.

154
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: I would agree with that. I think if you are,

155
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: you know, maybe if you are you know, already sort

156
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: of stacked too, if you're at the top of your

157
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: league and you're sort of you're just kind of hanging

158
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 1: out and you're looking to kind of acquire and add depth,

159
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: maybe that's not a bad way to go. If you

160
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: know you've got spots that you can just sort of

161
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: hold on to. Maybe he's a guy you sort of add.

162
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: But if you're sort of in the middle there and

163
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: trying to make a move it it's probably best to

164
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: move on. See if you can acquire some other assets there.

165
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: Uh and and get the most out of Michael Thomas.

166
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: Definitely a frustrating year. Only played seven games last year. Uh.

167
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: We just you know, hopefully he gets healthy and he

168
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: gets back on the field. He's a lot of fun

169
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: to watch when he's there. But but this year just

170
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: has been uh, sort of a lost season for him. UM.

171
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: A serious and tragic story out of Las Vegas. Henry

172
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: Ruggs was in a serious, very serious car accident, including

173
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: a fatality. One person died in the accident. Henry Ruggs

174
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: himself has been charged with d uy well over the

175
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: legal limit was speeding in Las Vegas. Up we've over

176
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty miles an hour just before the

177
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: accident occurred. Also reportedly had a loaded handgun in the car.

178
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: Has since been released by the Raiders and is looking

179
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: at some real serious jail time. So football very much

180
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: not going to be a part of his future. We certainly,

181
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: uh send our condolences out to the families of the

182
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: person who died. Um. And there's nothing to be said

183
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: fantasy wise here other than Henry Ruggs did a a

184
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: dumb and awful thing. Um and he will certainly be

185
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: punished for it. He will pay the the price for it.

186
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: And I always say at the end of this show, right,

187
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: be safe, take care of yourselves, get vaccinated. All of

188
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: those things certainly very much applied to all the news

189
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: that we have had in this show. Um, and that's

190
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 1: kind of all I have to say about that right now. Um.

191
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: The trade deadline came and went in the NFL on

192
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: Tuesday and Florida. There really wasn't much to report, like

193
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: nothing nothing happened. Uh. You know the the only uh

194
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: with the the biggest news of the trade deadline before

195
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 1: the deadline was von Miller maybe coming to the or not.

196
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: Maybe he is coming to the rams um. But nothing

197
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: really happened. So we talked about some wide receivers that

198
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: maybe you could hold onto or drop depending on what happened.

199
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: Allan Robinson is still a bear. Does that mean it's

200
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: time to drop him? Yeah? I think so. It pains me,

201
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 1: but I have in the leagues that I was holding

202
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 1: on to Allen Robinson. I I had a bunch of

203
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: claims in to drop him. My waivers in those leagues

204
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: run on Wednesday night, so I will see who I

205
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: end up dropping him for. But unless all of my

206
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: claims are unsuccessful. I'm I'm going to be dropping Allen

207
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: Robinson off of my rosters and Marcus. As much as

208
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: the NFL dominates the sports calendar and it and it's

209
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: just better than others sports at everything, the one thing

210
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: they're not better than other sports at is the trade deadline.

211
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: That is very true. The NFL trade that line generally

212
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: is a dud. While you know, baseball, basketball, it's really exciting, Uh,

213
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: the NFL generally, not not much happens here. I was

214
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: talking to somebody who's in a sixteen team league. If

215
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: that's your situation, you're probably holding on to Allen Robinson,

216
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: But for most of the rest of us, you put

217
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: him back on the waiver wire. I mean, he's somewhere

218
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 1: in the fifties I think as among wide receivers um

219
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: and it just doesn't look like it's getting better anytime soon.

220
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 1: You see it right there on the screen, fewer than

221
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: ten Fantasy points in seven of eight games that lone

222
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: game he has over ten was with Andy Dalton, so

223
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: in one it's it's been brutal with justin Fields. It's

224
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: been absolutely bleak there with Fields. The other wide receiver

225
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: of note de Sean Jackson was waived by the Rams.

226
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: The two sides sort of decided it wasn't working, so

227
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: they are gonna part company. Any idea if you would

228
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,479
Speaker 1: you pick him up, if he lands in the right situation,

229
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: if he lands on a spot where he's gonna get

230
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 1: consistent weekly volume, I would be interested in picking up

231
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: to Sean Jackson. I still think he's got something left

232
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: in the tank as a burner, like he can still

233
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: stretch the field. The issue is the Rams just didn't

234
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: need him. They have so much depth at wide receiver.

235
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,959
Speaker 1: Van Jefferson was out playing him. But I still think

236
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 1: in the right situation, just to Seawan Jackson might have

237
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: a little bit more left to offer. I think so too.

238
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: I mean, he's always gonna be boom er bust. He

239
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: is sort of the quintessential better and best ball guy.

240
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: But uh, he gets in the right situation and he

241
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: can get some targets. I think he's worth a look

242
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: off your waiver wire at some point. Uh, it is

243
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: Week nine and there are more buys or four teams

244
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 1: on a by this week it is the Lions, the Seahawks,

245
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, and the Washington football team. So I look

246
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: at some of the notable players on a buying quarterback,

247
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: it's pretty much just Tom Brady. He's the only notable

248
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: quarterback there. You're running backs DeAndre Swift and Leonard four Nets.

249
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: Wide receivers you've dk Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin.

250
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you could throw Antonio Brown in there,

251
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: but you know he's he's hurt. I guess you can

252
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 1: throw Antonio Gibson on there as well, though he has

253
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 1: not been super special for much of the season. Tory

254
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,719
Speaker 1: McLaurin also one of your wide receivers, and then your

255
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: tight ends t J Hawkinson and Rob Gronkowski. So just

256
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 1: a note, make sure that those guys are not in

257
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: your lineup when the week begins. All right, big beefy

258
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: start to the show here, but we are going to

259
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: hit a break. We'll come back well as some of

260
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: the big questions four week nine, including are we nervous

261
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 1: about Patrick Mahomes right now? Stay tuned for that on

262
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy Football Show. Well, as always, we have

263
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: three big questions heading into the week, so let's just

264
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: dive into them. Let's start with the Tennessee Titans. They

265
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: got the unfortunate news earlier in the week that Derrick

266
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: Henry is gone for possibly the rest of the regular season,

267
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: at least an ex stended period of time. We know

268
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: that for sure. Um. I know Mike Rabel says he

269
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: wants the offense to remain kind of the same. I

270
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: have my doubts about that. So I'm looking at Ryan

271
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: Tannehill with no Derrick Henry and imagining they're gonna have

272
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: to throw the football more, does Derek. Does Ryan Tannehill

273
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: get an upgrade in your rankings or your your expectations

274
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: based on what this offense could be? Yeah? He does. Uh,

275
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: I think that he. They're obviously naturally gonna have to

276
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: throw more. Right, Like, you're not gonna be able to

277
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: sustain an offense running the ball as much as they

278
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: did with Adrian Peterson and Jeremy McNichols, like you did

279
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: with Derrick Henry. But I think the upgrade starts, but

280
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: not this week. This is just a tough matchup against

281
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: the Rams defense that now has Von Miller with Ramsey

282
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: and Aaron Donald there. Uh. It's Adrian Peterson's first game

283
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: signed fresh off the street. Jeremy McNichols is in a

284
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 1: larger role. Julio Jones has been in and out of

285
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: the lineup all game all years, so we don't know

286
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: if he is fully healthy, if he's even gonna play

287
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: this week. So and my opinion, I think long term

288
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: we have to elevate Ryan Tannehill. But I think for

289
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 1: this week it's still another week. I would be trying

290
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: to get away from him. Yeah, I think this week

291
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 1: is not really a great week. I don't I wouldn't

292
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: want to be the first team to test this new

293
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: Rams defense, you know, with with Von Miller on it um.

294
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: But I do think in the long term I expect

295
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: more out of out of Ryan Tannehill. And I was

296
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 1: one of the people who had elevated expectations for him

297
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 1: coming into the season. Uh, it hasn't quite worked out

298
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: that way, but I do think there's gonna be more opportunity.

299
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: I also think it will help if Julio Jones can

300
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: get healthy and stay on the field and add one

301
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: more target. You know, It's it's not as scary when

302
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: you're talking about throwing to Nick Westbrook at keneh As

303
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: as your other option in the passing game. But I

304
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 1: do think there's gonna be more coming for him, at

305
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: least I certainly hope so. Other quarterback news, it has

306
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: not been particularly great for Patrick Mahomes of late. The

307
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: start of the season looked fine. He looked like the

308
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: guy we we were making the first quarterback off the board.

309
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: Last couple of weeks not so much. I'm not gonna

310
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: say it's full on time to panic, but it is

311
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: at least time to be a little bit concerned about

312
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: my homes. Yeah, I think just a little bit, Like

313
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: not to the point where I'm taking him out of

314
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: my fantasy lineups. I continue to start him each week.

315
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: But initially I was like, man, things haven't been going

316
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: right for the Chiefs. There's a lot of bad bounces

317
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: going their way, a lot of interceptions coming off the

318
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: hands of receivers. But Mahomes also hasn't looked great. Like

319
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: that Monday night game against the Giants was the first

320
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: time watching the Homes where I was like, man, he

321
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: is just off, Like he is missing his receivers even

322
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: on the catches and like completions he was getting they were,

323
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: they were just not where the ball should be. They

324
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: were behind the receiver a lot. It felt like every

325
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: throw was either near the line of scrimmage or like

326
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: forty yards down the field. Uh. And I know he

327
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: was saying before that game, like I need to take

328
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: a profit. I have to stop trying to get the

329
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: long touchdown on every single play and you know, take

330
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: the ten yards that the defense is giving me. But

331
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: he didn't do that, Like he continued to just get

332
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: his eyes stuck down fields. So not worried in the

333
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: sense where I'm dropping him or even sitting him, But

334
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: I am worried in the sense like, hey, am I

335
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: getting the top three quarterback that I that I paid

336
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: up to get in my draft up that I'm not

337
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: so sure about the rest of the season. And you

338
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: talk about Mahomes looking downfield and always sort of looking

339
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: for the big shot of the home run play. I

340
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: also feel like part of it is it feels like

341
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: he only really has confidence in Travis Kelsey and Tyreek Hill,

342
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: and every week it's it's sort of become a running

343
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: joke at this point, like what other patri or Chiefs

344
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: pass catchers are you interested in besides Hill and Kelsey?

345
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: You know, we keep throwing out Nicole Hardman or DeMarcus

346
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: Robinson or Byron Pringle or whatever. But none of those

347
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: guys end up making an impact. And I don't know

348
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 1: if it's that they aren't consistently getting open if they're

349
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: not you know, if if the Chiefs aren't really integrating

350
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: him into the game plan, or if it's that Mahomes

351
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: doesn't trust them. But as teams start to key in

352
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: more on slowing Downhill and Kelsey, it does limit what

353
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: Mahomes can do. When I think we have seen that

354
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: frustration from him. Uh, it definitely hasn't helped that he's

355
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: turned the ball over so much this year, interceptions in

356
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: seven straight games. I still believe. I believe in him,

357
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: I believe in the Chiefs offense. I believe in Andy

358
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 1: Reid and Eric b enemy Um. But yeah, this is

359
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: definitely not what people were anticipating when they were spending

360
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: probably a third or fourth round pick on on Patrick

361
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: Mahomes this year in their drafts. Uh, last one here

362
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: and look, full disclosure, we have we have shuffled this

363
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 1: rundown around so many times because of all the news

364
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,719
Speaker 1: that was hitting just before we sat down to record this.

365
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: So originally this question was gonna be what should we

366
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: do about Michael Thomas. We know what's happening with Michael Thomas,

367
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: so now we have some clarity on that. Now the

368
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 1: question is what do we do about Odell Beckham Jr.

369
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 1: Because it seems like his time in Cleveland is very

370
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 1: very short. As we sit here and record this show.

371
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: He is still a Brown, but there are tweets circulating

372
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 1: that the head coach Kevin Stefanski, that the g M

373
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: Andrew Berry are talking to Odell agent Discovery are trying

374
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: to figure out the next steps. If you don't understand why,

375
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: it's because Odell Beckham Senior posted an eleven minute video

376
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: on Instagram showing all the times that his son was

377
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: wide open and that Baker Mayfield failed to connect with him.

378
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: Things are bad right now in Cleveland, Florio. So with

379
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: all that being said and all this uncertainty surrounding O

380
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: b J. What do we do. I I have dropped

381
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham in the leagues that I had him in.

382
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: In one league markets, I dropped him for thirty six

383
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: year old Adrian Peterson, something that I never would have

384
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,479
Speaker 1: thought I would say. But it's become that bad for

385
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Jr. Like he deserves part of the blame

386
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 1: as well. Um, but I do think a lot of

387
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: it also goes to Baker and the Browns. Like Baker

388
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 1: has missed Beckham a lot, like on deep shots this year,

389
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: Baker just hasn't lived up to expectations himself. And I

390
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: also don't get why the Browns don't design more plays

391
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 1: to Odell Beckham, especially early on in games where you

392
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: know you come out with like a script on your

393
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 1: first two drives, Like why don't you have more design

394
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: pass plays just to get the ball in his hand

395
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 1: and see what he could do. I'd still think he

396
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: is a really talented receiver. For seasonal leagues, I'm dropping him.

397
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: But in Dynasty Marcus, I would be interested in getting

398
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: him on my roster because, just like Michael Thomas, I

399
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: feel like his values at an all time low. And

400
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: if he plays with a better quarterback and a better

401
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 1: offense next year, I think there could be some resurgence

402
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: there for Odell. Here's the thing. If O'Dell gets released,

403
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 1: and right now it's it's just speculation, but if he's

404
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 1: to get released, someone is going to pick him up. Um,

405
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: you know it may it may be a week or two,

406
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: but somebody's going You don't have a guy that talented

407
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,439
Speaker 1: and he just stays out there on the street for

408
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: very long uh, and that is going to boost his

409
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 1: value again, just a new opportunity. So it's it's sort

410
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,360
Speaker 1: of like the Michael Thomas situation. Right. If you can

411
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: afford to sort of weight uh and hope that he

412
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: blossoms back into the the Odell that we saw with

413
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 1: the Giants, then he's worth taking a shot on. If

414
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,400
Speaker 1: you need immediate help, then he's probably not for you.

415
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: But Uh, this has been a wild ride in Cleveland. Um,

416
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 1: this is year three and it just has not panned out.

417
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: It has been pretty awful and it looks like it's

418
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: going to end very badly for both sides here. So

419
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 1: we'll definitely keep an eye on that. It has been

420
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: a busy, busy Wednesday so far and we're not even

421
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: halfway through it. All Right, let's turn our attention to

422
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: our game previews. Let's start with what I consider to

423
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: be the most interesting game on the schedule. It's the

424
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: Sunday night game. Uh, Titans at the Rams. Where are

425
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 1: you going for this one? Yeah? I already said earlier

426
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: I would try to get away from Ryan's Hannehill this week.

427
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: You notice start a J Brown and all your Rams

428
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: every week. So I was with limited options here. I

429
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: think you should avoid the Tennessee Titans running backs if possible.

430
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 1: I understand you might be desperate and if you got

431
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 1: one of them off the waiver wire, maybe you need

432
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: to replace Henry or you have a bunch of running

433
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: backs on buy or something like that. But if it's

434
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: if you're able to get away from this backfield, then

435
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 1: you have two other useful options. I would because we

436
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: don't know how much of a workload Adrian Peterson is

437
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 1: going to get. We don't know if they're gonna him

438
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,919
Speaker 1: and McNichols are gonna split ground usage. I anticipate a

439
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 1: p getting the goal on work but is it's something

440
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 1: where we see a lot of McNichols in between the twenties,

441
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: We're not sure. So until we have clarity on this backfield,

442
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,120
Speaker 1: and it's a tough matchup against the Rams d Lin

443
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: that just added von Miller, So I would be staying

444
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: away from this, Marcus, if at all possible. Now I'm

445
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: with you. Everything about this says beware. I mean you're

446
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: talking about a situation where we have no clarity on

447
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 1: how the workload is going to be split in a

448
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: terrible matchup. Uh, and especially in a game where the

449
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: Titans could be chasing a little bit too. If that

450
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 1: Rams passing game continues to click the way it has. Uh,

451
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,360
Speaker 1: this just seems this just seems like a bad, bad situation. Uh.

452
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: Next game on the doc then you see Rams allowing

453
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: the fewest rush yards per game since Week five. So

454
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: that just seems bad. It seems bad for Tennessee. Uh.

455
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 1: Next up the Broncos at the Cowboys. And I want

456
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: to say, I think you want to be aware of

457
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: the Broncos running back. So here we are another running

458
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: back situation that maybe, uh isn't particularly great. This one's

459
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: a little bit different. We we sort of know how

460
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: this works out. Between Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams. They're

461
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: splitting opportunities pretty equally, and they've both been, you know,

462
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: pretty good. If you could combine them into one running back,

463
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: it would be great. Uh. They've been two okay running

464
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 1: backs on their own. But the Cowboy run defense has

465
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: been pretty good all year long. And UH, your credit

466
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: Dan Quinn for sort of turning that unit around. Last

467
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: year we were picking on the Cowboys at will. This year,

468
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: we haven't really been able to do that, and this

469
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: feels like another situation where neither of these guys uh

470
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,719
Speaker 1: is going to be particularly great. And I feel like

471
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 1: this is a situation to Mike where uh, you know,

472
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: if the Cowboys start scoring points like they can if

473
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: that is healthy and throwing the football. This is another

474
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: one where the game script might not favor Denver's running backs.

475
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: And with Denver having Sutton, Judy Fan and Tim Patrick,

476
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: now maybe they don't have the need to dump off

477
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: as many passes to the running back. This was a

478
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 1: situation markets where I was hoping Melvin Gordon got traded

479
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: to like Tennessee, because that would have been perfect for fantasy.

480
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 1: But of course that didn't happen. No, of course that

481
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: it never works out the way we would like it

482
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 1: to work out. So there we go. So we got

483
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: plenty more game previews coming up. We will take a

484
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 1: break though, and we'll get back to some of those

485
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: game previews after the break on the NFL Fantasy Football Show.

486
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: Those are the part of the show where I remind

487
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 1: you to follow us on TikTok at NFL Fantasy. We

488
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: got plenty of stuff going on to be sure to

489
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 1: check that out. You can also follow me on TikTok

490
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: at Marcus Grant and uh I think I think this

491
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: week they actually pulled one of my TikTok videos to

492
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: show so you can see some of the lunacy that happens. Yeah, yeah,

493
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: this is what it looks like. It's me dancing with

494
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: weird neon strobe lights and um there's music too. Uh

495
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 1: so you can come check that out. That's that's just

496
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 1: part of the insanity on on the talk, So come

497
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,959
Speaker 1: join us. Is that what the kids call it now

498
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: the talk? I have no idea, that's what I call it.

499
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: I might trying to make myself sound cool. I have

500
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: no idea if that did at all what they call it?

501
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: No clue. All right, back to our game previews. Patriots

502
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: at the Panthers. Patriots coming off a really nice win

503
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 1: over the Chargers last week. What are we doing about

504
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: that matchup? I say start? The Carolina Panthers running back

505
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 1: like Christian McCaffrey was designated to return off the i

506
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 1: R today. That opens up his twenty one day window

507
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: that he can return if he is activated in time

508
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: for Sunday. Obviously, he is a must start, but if not,

509
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: I think you just continue to start Chuba Hubbard. He

510
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: has been getting a lot of volume. Last week he

511
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: had twenty five touches. I don't he only turned it

512
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 1: into fourteen Fantasy points, but he consistently is getting over

513
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,640
Speaker 1: fifteen touches. In his last five games, he has fifteen

514
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 1: or more touches. I know has been a little bit

515
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: up and down, but his floor has been nine Fantasy

516
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: points and his ceiling has been over eighteen. So I

517
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: think that the usage and what he's been giving you,

518
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: Marcus makes him an RB two that you just you

519
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,159
Speaker 1: kind of leave in your lineup. I will give you

520
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,479
Speaker 1: the same warning I've been giving for weeks. Now. I

521
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 1: know Christian McCaffrey is off. I r he's back at practice.

522
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 1: Um hold on a Chuba Hubbard, though, just because I

523
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: feel like we've been here before and we get our

524
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 1: optimism up and then McCaffrey doesn't play or has a setback.

525
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: So I would just say, you know, don't give up

526
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: on Chuba Hubbard yet. But both those guys, whoever is

527
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,959
Speaker 1: the lead is a pretty good start against New England

528
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 1: this week. Brown's at Bengals. All the Odell Beckham uh

529
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 1: madness aside. Right now, it's an interesting game, and I

530
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: will say it makes Joe Burrow a must start. And

531
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 1: he might be heading towards that anyway, just on his

532
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 1: own merit, but especially this week, he's definitely a must start.

533
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: This is a Brown's defense that has really had problems,

534
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: especially in the back porson of the defense. We still

535
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: like their pass rush. We know Myles Garrett is an

536
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 1: absolute monster upfront, but if the Bengals can sort of

537
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 1: take care of him or slow him down, that should

538
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 1: give Burrow plenty of time. Last week we saw him

539
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 1: spread the ball around see Higgins, Tyler Boyd, Jamar Chase

540
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 1: still had a touchdown even if it wasn't a long one.

541
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 1: Um and so I think at this point Joe Burrow

542
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: probably deserves being every week starter. But for whatever reason,

543
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: if you're not starting him on a rag uh, this

544
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 1: is a week to make sure that he's in your lineup. Alright,

545
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 1: Vikings at Ravens, which one are you going? Which way

546
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 1: are you going? In this one? I'm going with flex

547
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 1: Rashad Bateman here. Wide receiver is pretty brutal this week.

548
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: I know typically we say that about the running back position,

549
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: but given all the teams on buys, we're losing a

550
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: lot of receivers here, and there's just been you know,

551
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: under performances and players who haven't really lived up to expectations.

552
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 1: The Vikings give up the seventh most Fantasy points on

553
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: the year two receivers plus. Bateman showed that he was

554
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,360
Speaker 1: a consistent part of the offense in the two games

555
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: he played before the by getting six targets in each,

556
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: and he showed that he doesn't need a ton of

557
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: volume to put up fantasy numbers and uh when he

558
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 1: had three catches for eighty yards in his second game back. Now,

559
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: coming off of the bye, with already having two games

560
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 1: in this offense, I think that he'll be a little

561
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 1: bit more comfortable. Maybe we see him used a little

562
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: bit more. This could be a game too that I

563
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 1: think is a little bit higher scoring on this slate

564
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: this week. So I I think Bateman is a solid

565
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: flex option this week. I I would not be afraid

566
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 1: to start him definitely. Like I love the way the

567
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: Ravens have pretty much integrated him from the moment he

568
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: stepped on the field into their passing game. Bills at Jaguars,

569
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,679
Speaker 1: which you know on paper does not feel like a

570
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 1: fair fight. Uh, and so that's why I'm saying the

571
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: Bill's defense is a must start in this situation. Uh.

572
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: It was appalling to see how bad the Jaguars were

573
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 1: coming off a by Uh, they had the week to prepare.

574
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 1: They go up to Seattle and they get crushed by

575
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: Gino Smith and the Seahawks. Meanwhile, the Bill's defense, and

576
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 1: I don't think we've talked about this at all this year,

577
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: they are the number one defense in fantasy. Uh they're

578
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 1: still out there though in a handful of leagues. Uh,

579
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: you know, not me any but if they're If they're

580
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: out there, go get them and start them this week.

581
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,360
Speaker 1: If you have them, make sure they are in your lineup.

582
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 1: You see that the Jaguars with fewer than twenty four

583
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: points in every game this season. The Bills have given

584
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: up just eleven offensive touchdowns this year. Everything is set

585
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: up for Buffalo to sort of smash in this one.

586
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: I expect I expect the Bills to win big, and

587
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 1: it's especially in the second half. I chanted them to

588
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: really come after the quarterback a little bit. It's gonna

589
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 1: be exciting for you, Floria. Yeah, I know they have

590
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: more takeaways than they've allowed touchdowns to quarterbacks this year.

591
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: So uh, not great for Trevor Lawrence. Not great for

592
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: Trevor alright, Chargers and Eagles, This one could be kind

593
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: of fun. I think, I believe, I hope. What are

594
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: you looking at here? It pains me to say, but

595
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: I think you gotta sit DeVonta Smith this week. I

596
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 1: mean Smith last week against the Lines gave us just

597
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: two and a half points. And I know game script

598
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: matters there, but he said, let's five fantasy points are

599
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: fewer in two of his last three games. He hasn't

600
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: really shown us much of a ceiling. I thought volume

601
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: alone was keeping him as like a wide receiver three

602
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: or flex option. But this is not the week to

603
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: get him in your lineup. The Chargers have allowed the

604
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: fewest fantasy points to wide receivers, and if you're that

605
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: charge of secondary, you know, basically you gotta take away

606
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: Smith and Dallas got it and and where are the

607
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 1: Eagles gonna go with the balls? So I expect a

608
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: lot of defensive attention on Smith. I think Smith himself

609
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: is still a very good player at the NFL level.

610
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about him long term, but him this year,

611
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: in this offense and in this matchup this week, I

612
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: think you get away from him. This sounds like we're

613
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 1: back on the Jalen Hurts twenty points per game train.

614
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: If they're taking away his top pass catchers, then he's

615
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 1: gonna run the football and maybe he gets back to

616
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 1: scoring twenty points, which would be nice after a week

617
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,239
Speaker 1: he scored eleven in a game where the Eagles had

618
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: forty four. Anyway, Uh, if you want more starts and since,

Speaker 1: It is so come for the information, to stay for

626
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,959
Speaker 1: the money guns. It's a good time for everybody. All right,

627
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: let's move on to the Colts and the Jets, but

628
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 1: let's talk specifically about Jonathan Taylor. But first, actually let's

629
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: just kind of give you an update. We're mentioning that

630
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: news has been flying fast and furious pretty much all

631
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: day long, and the latest with Odell Beckham Jr. We

632
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: talked about his kind of butting heads are the the

633
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: the tumult in the Browns organization, and the reports are

634
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 1: that Kevin Stefanski, the head coach, told the team in

635
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: a team meeting that Odell is not part of the

636
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: team right now and basically wanted to say that he

637
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: will not be a part of this team for the

638
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: rest of the year. So I don't know if that

639
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: means he's going to be released. They will probably tell

640
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: us that as soon as we're done recording this show.

641
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: We're putting it up there for you to consume. But

642
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: as of now, Odell Beckham Jr. Is not playing football

643
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: for the Browns. Whether he is going to be free

644
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: to play for somebody else at the moment at least,

645
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: that is an unknown. All right. Uh, I don't know,

646
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: so I think I feel like we've talked that out

647
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: at least to the extent that we get him off

648
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 1: your rosters. Get him off your roster right now, you know,

649
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: we'll see. All right, Let's go to the best of

650
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: the pack here. Let's start with Jonathan Taylor, he of

651
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts, and he who is a favorite of

652
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: our own Michael f Florio. It's been pretty good for him,

653
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: especially recently when the Colts seemed to rediscover him. Let's

654
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 1: just spend this forward though, right in a year where

655
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey has been hurt, Say Kwon Barkley has been hurt,

656
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: Alvin Cook has been hurt and inconsistent, Derrick Henry is

657
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: now gone for the rest of the year. Is Jonathan

658
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: Taylor in the conversation to be the number one overall

659
00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: pick in two I think so. I especially think so

660
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: because of one how he's been playing as of late.

661
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: I cannot wait for him to run for like two

662
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: hundred yards against the Jets on Thursday night. But I

663
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 1: think the bigger thing too is Nahem Haines role has

664
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: been shrinking to the point where he's almost droppable in

665
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: fantasy football because john that Taylor is getting more utilized

666
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: in the past and game, And it makes sense when

667
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: you were running back who can take a catch and

668
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: bring it eight yards like Jonathan Taylor? Can you want

669
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 1: to get that guy the ball in space as much

670
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 1: as you can. So I definitely think he is in

671
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: consideration for the one oh one next year. I think

672
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: also some other like Austin Ekeler. I think Nagy Harris

673
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: will join Dalvin Cook like CMC and Derrick Henry in

674
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: that conversation. I think next year is gonna be one

675
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: of those years, Marcus, where there's no consensus number one.

676
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: You're gonna kind of have to choose who you think

677
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: is the best option there. And I think Jonathan Taylor,

678
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: though very much so, deserves to be in that conversation

679
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: right now. I think I'm sort of torn between him

680
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: and Derrick Henry just sort of looking at this Henry

681
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 1: thing is maybe just kind of an unfortunate circumstance, and

682
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 1: then he'll be back to being tractor sedo again next year.

683
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: But Jonathan Taylor still young, good offensive line of chance

684
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: to really be a workhorse because there's no one that

685
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: is really threatening him for opportunities. He is sort of

686
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: what we saw out of you, say, say Quan a

687
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: couple of years ago, or Dalvin Cook, any of those guys.

688
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: So I right now, as I sit here in early November,

689
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: I do think he is. He's in that conversation. So

690
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: I will just say, if if Eckler and Taylor finished

691
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: as the top two running backs this year, Marcus, I'm

692
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: gonna be unbearable on Twitter for a couple. Take that

693
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: as a warning everybody. Uh, next up, let's pivot to

694
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: the Falcons and the Saints, and let's focus in on

695
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara. Now he's been just fine, but some of

696
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 1: them has had to do with the quarterback situation there.

697
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: Now there's no Jamis, Taysom Hill is eligible to come

698
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: back and play again. Uh should we root for Taysom Hiller?

699
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 1: Should we root for Trevor Simeon to take over as

700
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: the quarterback? I think you should be rooting for Trevor

701
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: Simeon if you have Alvin Kamara, or what you really

702
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: should be rooting for is that the Saints called Philip

703
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 1: Rivers because he said he would pick up that call,

704
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 1: and we know he loves to dump it off to

705
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: the running backs. But if Taysom Hill is a starter,

706
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: and that's what I expect, Marcus, I don't love it

707
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 1: at all for Alvin Kmara. He did have the one

708
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,959
Speaker 1: game last year with ten targets from Hill, but besides that,

709
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,839
Speaker 1: it was less than five I believe in each game.

710
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,720
Speaker 1: Plus Taysom Hill had more carries near the goal line

711
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: in those four games than Alvin Kamara did. He scored

712
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: four rushing touchdowns. He had forty rushing yards in every game.

713
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: He is going to run the ball, especially in the

714
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: red zone. And when he's running the ball, that means

715
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: he's not like when he's feeling pressure, he's not looking

716
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: to just get it out of his hand to the

717
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,879
Speaker 1: running back. So I think they'll still be design pass

718
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 1: plays for Alvin Kamara, but not nearly as many receptions.

719
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,800
Speaker 1: And I think you start have to start worrying about

720
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: the goal line work now that if Hill is the starter,

721
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 1: and the fact that they have mark Ingram on board

722
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 1: as well. It's that goal line stuff that really scares

723
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: me about Taysom Hill taking over his quarterback. You mentioned

724
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: mark Ingram. He's gonna get some looks. We know Hill

725
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: will take it and run it himself. I think the

726
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: target share will actually stay about the same just because, look,

727
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 1: we know that there's no Michael Thomas coming back at

728
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,959
Speaker 1: this point, and you know the rest of the past

729
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: catchers have been fine, um, but I don't imagine that

730
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: you know they're suddenly gonna lean heavily on Marquis Callaway

731
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: or you know, Deonte Harris or Trey Kwon Smith, So

732
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: maybe maybe that keeps uh Camara getting some targets. That

733
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,359
Speaker 1: was the thing he didn't really get. But I do

734
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: worry that the touchdown number maybe what comes down for

735
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 1: Camara if Taysom Hill ends up being the starter. So ah,

736
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 1: this is not where we wanted to be getting into

737
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 1: Week nine. Back to our game previews the Texans at

738
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, because the schedule makers said so. But I

739
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 1: will say, to a tongue of Violoa feels like a

740
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: sleeper this week. Maybe it's a little bit of the

741
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: chip on his shoulder after having a couple of weeks

742
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: of hearing about how Deshaun Watson was gonna come and

743
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: take his job away from him. Maybe it's just the

744
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: fact that it's the Texans defense and they're not particularly

745
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 1: very good. But to what has been he's been pretty

746
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: good the last couple of weeks, been fairly consistent, and

747
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: so I think this is an opportunity, especially if you're

748
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 1: in a two quarterback league. But maybe if you need

749
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 1: help at the QB position, I don't know, maybe you

750
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 1: lost Aaron Rodgers for this week, for instance, or you

751
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 1: have Tom Brady who's on to buy Uh, then I

752
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 1: think too what could be a nice play, a nice

753
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 1: way to fill in your your quarterback spot in Week nine.

754
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 1: Completely agree. Yeah, Packers at the Chiefs, we already know

755
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: one big name is not going to be there. Uh

756
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: where What what should folks do when you're looking at

757
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: this matchup? I I kind of spoke about it earlier

758
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: in the show, but I think a J. Dillon is

759
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,760
Speaker 1: a strong flex option, and I liked a J. Dillon

760
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,959
Speaker 1: as a flex option before the Aaron Rodgers news came out.

761
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,240
Speaker 1: I think now with Jordan's love there, they're the Packers

762
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: are gonna just I think try to run the ball

763
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: a good amount, keep the ball out of Patrick Mahomes hands. Uh.

764
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: And I also think they're gonna see a lot of short,

765
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 1: little dump offs to the running backs. We saw Aaron

766
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 1: Jones get double digit targets last week, and when they

767
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: were using him so much as a receiver markets it

768
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: led to uh A J. Dylon having a lot of

769
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 1: work on the ground. They were using bolding them on

770
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,399
Speaker 1: the field at the same times with Jones split out

771
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 1: wide at times, Dylan was getting work near the goal

772
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 1: line as well, as you see on on that play

773
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 1: right there. So I'm pretty excited for Dylan. I have

774
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: him ranked as my RB twenty five this week. I've

775
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 1: just been more and more interested in having a J

776
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: Dylan at least on a roster and maybe as a

777
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: flex option, just because he's starting to get more opportunity here.

778
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 1: So I think this could keep rolling. Even though the

779
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,479
Speaker 1: Giants didn't do a ton against the Chiefs, I still

780
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 1: want to pick on that defense, so that could be

781
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 1: a really good spot to get Dylan in. Alright, last

782
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: couple of game previews as we wrap up the show

783
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 1: here Raiders at the Giants, I'll tell you to be

784
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 1: aware of Darius Tony and it was it was sort

785
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: of head scratching that the Giants didn't get him all

786
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 1: that involved. There was a lot of confusion as to

787
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: whether he was hurt or not, but whatever, they didn't

788
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: get the football in his hands. Even if they do

789
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 1: this week, the Raiders have been pretty good against wide

790
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 1: receivers and this is not I just don't feel comfortable

791
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 1: with the Science offense right now, especially in the passing game.

792
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 1: They've had so many injuries, so many guys out of

793
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 1: the lineup. Uh fewer than eight fantasy points in back

794
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,800
Speaker 1: to back games for Tony and just inconsistent usage, maybe

795
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 1: you have to start him. I don't know what your

796
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 1: wide receiver situation looks like, but I'm not super excited

797
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 1: about Tony in this week's matchup. That's all I got

798
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,279
Speaker 1: um Cardinals and the forty Niners, which could be a

799
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 1: pretty good game on paper. That the Cardinals trying to

800
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 1: bounce back after their first loss. What are we doing here?

801
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: I think you start Elijah Mitchell, and I know he

802
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: was available on a lot of waivers. You know, the

803
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. He shouldn't be. You have to

804
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: get this guy off of the waiver wire and get

805
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: him right into your starting lineup if you can. I mean,

806
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 1: he's had eighteen touches, over a hundred rushing yards and

807
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: a touchdown in each of his last two games. That's

808
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: over sixteen Fantasy points. In both he has eighteen or

809
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: more touches and four of the five games he's played

810
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 1: this year, he is the unquestioned RB one there. I

811
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,360
Speaker 1: know he doesn't catch any passes and that limits his

812
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 1: upside of it, but I'm not sure it matters when

813
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: you're rushing for a hundred yards every week. And I

814
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,240
Speaker 1: know the Cardinals on paper are a tough matchup against

815
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: running backs, but they allow over almost ninety rushing yards

816
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: per game to the position. They just limit the catches

817
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: and stuff, which you don't have to worry about with Mitchell.

818
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: So I'm trusting Kyle Shanahan and his run system here.

819
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: I think Mitchell has earned RB two status that you

820
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: could start each week. Yeah. No, He's been fantastic, especially

821
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: in a year where they have kind of shuffled guys

822
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: around and we picked the wrong forty Niners rookie running back.

823
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 1: You know, everybody who's on Trey Sermon should have been

824
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 1: Elijah Mitchell. There it is time for m v P Picks,

825
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 1: presented by Visa, a network giving small businesses tools to grow.

826
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: We will leave you with a couple of sleepers each

827
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 1: Florio start us off. I think DeVante Parker is a sleeper,

828
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: and coming into this week, he was available in over

829
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 1: eighty percent of NFL dot com weeks. That is way

830
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 1: too many. Against the Bills last week he saw Levin targets,

831
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 1: called eight of them for eighty five yards, and that

832
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 1: is against the team that allowed the fewest fantasy on

833
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,839
Speaker 1: two receivers. He has at least seven targets in every game.

834
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: But Marcus, what I like is he has nine or

835
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: more and three of his last four games he's top

836
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: sixteen fantasy points in two. I think the volume makes

837
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: him a weekly flex option, but the volume again makes

838
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: him his upside even higher than that, especially in a

839
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: good matchup like this week against the Texans. I'm gonna

840
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: go tay Some Hill. And for some of the reasons

841
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 1: we talked about earlier, the things that make us nervous

842
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: about Alvin Kamara are the reasons we sort of like

843
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill as a potential sleeper this week, especially against

844
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons. The ability to throw the football, but

845
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 1: more importantly his ability to run. Uh and his propensity

846
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: to run near the goal line and give you that

847
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 1: touchdown upside. Look, if he is healthy and ready to go,

848
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: he's gonna be the starter. And like he's the guy

849
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 1: who's been Sean Payton's pet project for the last couple

850
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 1: of years. He was the guy who was very much

851
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 1: in the running to be the starter during preseason. Uh So,

852
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 1: I think if he's good to go, he is starting

853
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: against the Falcons this week, and he's got some sleeper potential.

854
00:40:58,120 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: I'm not just saying that because I drafted him late

855
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 1: in a few places and might be forced to put

856
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 1: him in a lineup. UH. Next sleeper for you, Jamal Agnew,

857
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: And I know there's some people who are like, who

858
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 1: is this guy? He is the new slot receiver for

859
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars. He saw a team high twelve targets

860
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 1: last week, but he's been seeing consistent volume, getting at

861
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,240
Speaker 1: least six targets in three straight games. He topped double

862
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 1: digit fantasy points in each, sitting anywhere between ten and

863
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,319
Speaker 1: sixteen fantasy points in the last three so ever. Since

864
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: DJ Chuck Jr's injury, this guy's been manning the slot

865
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: and getting good amount of volume going his way. I

866
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 1: don't think he has the highest ceiling markets, but I

867
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: think if you need like a flex option, maybe you're

868
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 1: going a little bit deeper at receiver this week. I

869
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 1: think Agnew is someone that should be interesting to you,

870
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: and he definitely should be rostered right now. Jamal Age

871
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: was turning into the guy I wanted La Visca Chenault

872
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,959
Speaker 1: to be and it it hurts my heart. My last

873
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: one is Van Jefferson because I don't understand why we

874
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 1: wouldn't want more parts of the Rams passing game right there,

875
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,120
Speaker 1: the number two ranked passing game in the NFL. We

876
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,359
Speaker 1: know Cooper Cup has been amazing, Robert Woods is starting

877
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: to pick things up, but Van Jefferson has been very good.

878
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: And he's a guy who can get you some decent

879
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 1: production on just a few targets because he's a guy

880
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:11,799
Speaker 1: they like to use to stretch the field. And now

881
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 1: that there's no Deshaun Jackson, there more of these opportunities

882
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: are going to go Jefferson's way. I think, especially this

883
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: week against that Titan secondary, it's a really nice play.

884
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: But I'm still kind of trying to wrap my head

885
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: around the fact that Jefferson is available in about nineties

886
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: seven percent of NFL dot Com leagues. I don't understand it.

887
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 1: Go pick him up, and especially this week, I think

888
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 1: you put him in your lineup as a flex option.

889
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: All right. If you want more sleepers, you can check

890
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,560
