WEBVTT - Free agents already?! 0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:03.960 Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly, a production of I Heart Radio. 0:00:06.080 --> 0:00:09.440 Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from I Heart Radio, 0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:14.120 your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy football advice, speculation, 0:00:14.240 --> 0:00:17.079 and whatever stupid stuff they decided to drop into the show. 0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:23.599 Now here's your host. Welcome to the first off season 0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:30.040 edition Fantasy Football Weekly for at least for this off season. Harrison, 0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:33.000 it's not our first half. I think we dubbed like 0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:36.279 the playoff edition as the first off season show for us. 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:43.560 But speaking yes, yes, but then yes, the NFL off season, 0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:47.640 so lots to talk about as we already start. You know, 0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:50.920 in many ways, thinking about the upcoming free agency, the draft, 0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:53.120 a lot of stuff. I thought it'd be fun to 0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:55.880 go around the NFL and look at some of the 0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:59.520 free agents that have a pretty decent chance of leaving 0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:03.960 their team, and yet um, who could then fill in 0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:06.080 that spot, Who could walk into that spot that's already 0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:11.280 on that team if they don't replace the right exactly exactly. So, 0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:14.000 you know, for a lot of this stuff, it's TBD 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:15.720 on how it's actually gonna pan out. But in many 0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:18.560 cases there's just some good opportunities. Here's the guy who's 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:20.800 rising to the top of the depth chart for now. 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:23.520 For now, Yeah, let's start at the quarterback position. Ben 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:28.440 Roethlisberger is done or something. God yea the last few 0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:31.400 years it was it was not good. But the Steelers 0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:34.720 despite knowing this is coming, you've had, you've had eighteen 0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:38.040 years to prepare for this moment, and they're not ready. 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:40.640 Mason Rudolph's the only person on is I guess, the 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.720 closest thing on on on roster right now. Yeah, I 0:01:43.720 --> 0:01:47.160 think they have Dwayne Haskins under contract to UM but 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:50.240 it's gonna be messy. And I believe the Steelers pick 0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:54.120 twentieth in the draft right now, I would venture to 0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:56.400 guess that they are a real candidate if they see 0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:58.600 a quarterback that they actually do like in the draft 0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:01.200 that they'd move up. They've may be the most likely one. 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:02.760 They're also I think one of the two or three 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:05.400 most likely teams to make a trade for like a 0:02:05.480 --> 0:02:11.640 Jimmy Garoppolo or if Kirk Cousins Ull Wilson maybe maybe 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:14.880 you know, if Russell Wilson, I think you I think 0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:18.080 he will be available. We'll find out. Um So Roethlisberger. 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:20.280 That's because the rest of that team is ready to go. 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:22.600 I don't think they want to start over in the 0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:24.920 draft if they don't have to. If if it turns 0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:26.799 out they can get a quarterback they think they can 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:31.079 live with. Honestly, Jimmy Garoppolo is better than the versions 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:33.280 we've seen of Ben Roethlisberger the last couple of years. 0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:34.440 And they got on the play you know, they're able 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:36.680 to get to the playoffs. Had heard a hot rumor 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:40.360 that Garoppolo maybe traded to the Buccaneers for the rights 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:49.400 to Tom Brady. Let's use that there could be something 0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:52.440 to do that. It is absurd, but it's not. It's not. 0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:56.480 It'sout merit um. So let's sorry about Tom Brady. He's 0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:59.880 gone and that leaves obviously a roster that is otherwise 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:04.519 very good. Yeah, so that might roster that's really in flux, 0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:06.720 as we'll kind of talk about as we continued down 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:08.680 to the running back, in the wide receiver and the 0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:12.320 tight end position. Everybody's contract was up in Tampa this year. 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:13.959 This is kind of an all in moment. I think 0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:16.639 that affected Brady's decision. Yeah, I think that they're they're 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.519 probably in a little bit of a reload situation here. 0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:21.919 It could be that way. They got Kyle Trask, but 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.120 you know, we saw nothing of him during the season. 0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:28.880 He was a round pick last year. We have no 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.000 there's no reason to believe Kyle Trask is going to 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.200 be ready to be the starter. Aaron Rodgers is expected to. 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:38.240 He's under contract, you know, but he's there's a good 0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:40.360 chance he ends up leaving. That would put Jordan's Love 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:42.400 in a position to become a starter. Yeah. I picked 0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:45.400 up Jordan's Love and a couple of Dynasty leagues and 0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:47.560 just kind of stashed him just in case. I mean, 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:50.400 about halfway through the year when it was like, hey, 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.240 Jordan's Love is available in a trade for next to nothing. 0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:55.240 You know, I might as well put him on there 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:58.680 and see if it works. And if if the Packers 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:05.080 offense continues to be you know, seventy effective under Jordan's 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.360 Love as it was under Aaron Rodgers, I mean, that 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:11.000 could be okay, unless, of course, the wide receiver position 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.600 is the biggest problems. In a minute, um, a lot 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:16.280 of people are gonna take the Jordan Love start that 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:18.280 he had against the Chiefs and try to extrapolate that 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:23.560 to a career or a full season career. You know, 0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:25.360 I don't think there's a lot to be gained from 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:27.880 that one game, to be honest, Uh, it just it 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:31.360 seems unlikely. Um So Rogers says, your your league m VP, 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:33.919 He's gone. Jordan's love will likely step in there. Jamis 0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:39.120 Winston for the Saints is headed to free agency. I 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:41.760 don't know. I guess Caseom Hill is your You know, 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:45.520 the people signed him to too much money, so much much, 0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:49.839 a bad deal, and then Sean Payton left. You blame him, 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:53.560 got off that sinking ship. God, Taysom Hill is not 0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:57.880 an NFL starting quarterback, is a headget player. He probably 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.200 will be next, may have to be. They may just 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:02.000 have to, you know, they might just go to grit 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:04.520 their team. Given the salary cap situation. I believe there's 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:09.320 seventy one million dollars over the caps um, they might 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:11.680 just have to say, we we're gonna have to make 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.000 do with Taysom Hill, and you know, just wherever that 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.919 lands us, they should probably, you know, look, look to 0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:18.800 get rid of some of those veterans that they have 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.760 on that roster, Cam Jordan, Michael Thomas, those kind of 0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:24.480 they should be jettising those guys off for for draft 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:26.360 picks here and there. And just trying to rebuild it. 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:29.000 We could do a whole show on Michael Thomas and 0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:31.359 how this thing went from so high to so low 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:35.000 in the span of two seasons. Unbelievable. You know. I 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.200 was thinking about that with wide receivers the other day 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:40.839 on how some wide receivers they just poof are gone 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:43.920 all of a sudden, Like the the guy this year 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:46.039 that I didn't even include in this list, and he 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:52.359 is a free agent, Allen Robinson, good receiver, good receiver, buss, 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.720 but you can put him on the list. But Darnell 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:58.800 Mooney already took over the number one wide receiver role there, 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:01.160 I'm sure not in his I think he would tell 0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:04.280 you the Bears just epically misused him for his entire career, 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.839 which is true. Okay, you can put let's talk Allen 0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:11.039 Robinson a little bit later. Teddy Bridgewater, uh leaves behind 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:15.159 three thousand passing yards. His usual you know, like what 0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:17.320 it was an eighteen touchdowns is he's a touchdown a 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:19.560 game guy. That's what he's always been. It's it's just, 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:21.880 you know, that's what he is. And that's why teams 0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:24.599 always move on from Teddy Well and everybody earmarks the 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:27.560 Broncos is the best situation for a quarterback to just 0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:31.920 kind of blump into I mean Rogers. There two great 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.760 wide receivers. He's got a good running game. Uh, the 0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:37.960 defense seems set up to make a decent run. Yeah. 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:40.400 The problem is is you're you're in a division with 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:44.839 Patrick Mahomes and justin airball. See. I wonder if in 0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:48.640 Aaron Rodgers mind, that's not a factor. Oh, it's gotta be. 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:50.640 You know. Do you want to go into that division 0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:52.640 and try to finish your last couple of years in 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:57.120 Denver against Patrick Mahomes tough? You know, maybe he's too 0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:00.120 big of a coward for that. It's possible that's how 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:03.600 he ends up in Tampa. Maybe, but it'll no way, Right, 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:05.440 Aaron Rodgers gonna go to the a f C. I 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:09.560 don't think Packers would trade him in conference. Probably not. 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:13.720 Let's go to the running backs. Melvin Gordon leaves behind 0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:16.960 roughly half the carries for the Broncos, one thousand yards 0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:19.960 and ten touchdowns. Can I just add those thousand yards 0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:24.320 and ten touchdowns at Javonte Williams automatically? Yes? Please, as 0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:29.240 somebody who has Javonte Williams everywhere, yes, please. Brian and 0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:31.160 I did a first round mock draft, as you may 0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:33.960 have heard a couple of weeks ago, and Javonte Williams 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:36.200 went at the back end of the first round based 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:38.000 on what we know right now, which is, you know, 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:39.880 we don't know if he's going to be the lock 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.480 starter or not. And you've mentioned a couple of times 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:45.440 on this podcast that you you kind of expect Melvin 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:49.040 Gordon to just resign in Denver, and and and you've 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:51.400 said that too. I hope this doesn't happen, but I 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:54.760 think it might happen, and nobody wants Melvin Gordon back 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:58.120 in Denver, at least in the fantasy world. Melvin Gordon's 0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:01.680 probably listening to this because he does responding fantasy on Twitter. 0:08:01.760 --> 0:08:05.440 He does, he loves it. But yeah, sorry, Melvin Sony 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.400 Michelle will be a free agent and that will leave 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:13.080 Cam Akers to become the lock starter in all probability. Yeah, 0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:16.440 you'd hope so. And Darrell Henderson did enough this year 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.800 to you know, probably forced that into a fifty fifty 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:22.880 time share, which I think I think the Rams kind 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:25.840 of want to do. Yeah, I think that's probably the 0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:28.840 although they had used Akers, you know, when a pre injury. 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.040 They were they were using him as a workhorse back 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:34.400 at the tail end of last year. Definitely, Leonard four 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:36.800 Nett could end up leaving Tampa Bay and ended up 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:41.240 being a pretty successful migration from him from Jacksonville to 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:44.559 Tampa in his two seasons and had the great playoff 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:46.560 run two years ago and then last year put up 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:52.960 total yards and ten total touchdowns. Ronald Jones also gone, 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:55.679 and they won't bring him back obviously. Probably not so 0:08:56.640 --> 0:08:59.600 unless you think Keyshawn Vaughn is a hidden talent that 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:01.840 none of us have seen so far. But they got 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:07.280 Jeo Bernard too. It's the ender contract um their team 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.360 that's ripe to find a running back. Yeah, absolutely, they 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:12.520 could be one that's, you know, looking for a running 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:14.000 back kind of at the tail end of the second 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:16.120 round in the draft where most running backs kind of 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.840 start falling off. So I think that second or third 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:22.840 round running back for Tampa is very likely. James Conner's 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.720 headed to free agency and so is Chase Edmonds, So 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:30.880 it's like nine total yard touchdowns between the two of 0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:33.880 That's a great point. Somebody's walking into a massive opportunity. 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:37.120 Oh my gosh, like that that could be whoever ends 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:40.240 up signing. Let's let's just say, for instance, Leonard four 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:44.680 Nette ends up going to Arizona, like Leonard Fournett, suddenly 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:48.720 becomes for interesting if they don't have anybody else besides 0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:52.480 him and Eno Benjamin there, Needle Benjamin is no threat 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:56.480 fantasy standpoint, rare shot. Penny finished the season on an 0:09:56.520 --> 0:10:00.120 epic run the number of big, big runs, and know 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:03.480 I he looked way better than any previous time in 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:05.960 his career and in conveniently heads to free agency. Not 0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:08.319 convenient for the Seahawks, but can be for everybody else. 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:13.560 So left on roster is so Chris Carson might not 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:16.240 ever play again. Now we're nervous about the neck injury 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:19.560 for Alex Collins is there, but he's nothing, And so 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.640 that leaves DJ Dallas, who's a guy that they drafted highly. 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:27.240 Actually he played fairly okay in a couple of little spots, 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:31.400 fairly fairly okay. Yeah, um, I don't know. Dj Dallas 0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:34.240 and a team that could be rebuilding, they could just go, 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.839 you know what, we're just gonna roll with with Dj 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:39.400 this year and he's gonna be our our bell cow. 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:42.319 Seattle's a team that does bell Cow their runners. They 0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:46.880 do um, no team more probably invested in Rashad Penny 0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:51.280 than the team that up until Thanksgiving looked like they 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:54.080 had utterly botched the first round pick they had put 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:58.400 on Rashad Penny. So you know, I feel like emotionally 0:10:58.520 --> 0:11:00.360 the Seahawks would like to bring him back so it 0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:03.920 doesn't look so bad, which makes would make some sense. Right, 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:07.040 we'll find out, But I don't think d J Dallas 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.280 is not a league back in my mind. So all right, 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:13.120 let's go to Atlanta. Cor Darrel Patterson had put up 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:16.920 eleven hundred total yards eleven touchdowns, but petered out badly 0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:20.120 in December where I don't know if they just overused 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:24.199 him or he never had that much mileage ever. I mean, 0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:26.560 it's it's kind of like, you know, how like when 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:28.440 a rookie comes in and they say that you hit 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:31.880 the rookie wall at about week thirteen, fourteen, something like that. 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:35.079 This might have been the rookie wall for Cordrel Patterson 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.640 in his tent here in the league where he just 0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:39.920 has never had that much of a workload before, and 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:42.320 all of a sudden, he's just like they just didn't 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:44.439 give him the ball they just you know, they stopped. 0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:46.680 And he had been He had been the Cinderella story 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:50.480 of the fantasy season up until roughly Thanksgiving, and then 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:53.800 he just petered out. It probably didn't help that Atlanta 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:57.439 has Matt Ryan and no wide receivers and and all 0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:01.160 you really needed to do was stop Kyle Pitts. Actually 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:04.439 became kind of easy, as he only scored one touchdown 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:07.720 in the Continental United States this year, and it was 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:13.120 in the Pro Bowl. He did catch plenty of passes 0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:15.760 and he had had good yards. Stopped Pitts, and you 0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:18.520 can stop Patterson. You stopped that offense. It was done. 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:21.760 When we come back, let's talk through the free agent 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.800 wide receivers and tight ends that will be finding new teams, 0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:27.240 what that leaves behind, and what this could mean for 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:29.560 your fantasy team. When we returned to the second segment 0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:51.040 of Fantasy Football Weekly, Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:53.480 Ciarchi and Matt Harrison with you. I've already talked through 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:56.920 the quarterback and running back free agents. The wide receiver 0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:02.880 list is juicy, it's sure and and really probably the 0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:07.120 best wide receiver free agent class in well, well, I'm 0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:10.120 saying overall, the number one best wide receiver to hit 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:13.680 the market, Davante Adams. He could be the best wide 0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:16.160 receiver to ever hit free agency. That's a great It's 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:18.080 a great thought, and off top my head, I can't 0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:22.840 think of one better. I mean, Davanta Adams is, if 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:25.200 not the best wide receiver in football, he's a top 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:27.400 three right, And there only a couple of guys that 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:30.280 are even that conversation. These guys will almost never get 0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:33.200 to free agency, but the Packers cap situation makes it 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:36.800 almost impossible. And Adams isn't gonna want to resign in 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:39.920 if he's gonna have a rebuilding quarterback. We don't think 0:13:40.000 --> 0:13:43.560 that's true. And I think that the Adams situation plays 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.720 more into the Aaron Rodgers situation than I think people 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:50.080 are giving a credit. Um, do you think if Adams leaves, 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:51.920 Rodgers won't want to say? Yeah, I don't think. I 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.560 don't think Rodgers is gonna want to stay without Davante Adams, 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:56.080 and I don't think Adams is gonna want to go 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:59.280 back there without Aaron Rodgers. I think both of them 0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:02.160 leave or both of them stay, And if both of 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:05.360 them stay, the Packers have some cap gymnastics to get 0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:09.000 through They're gonna have to cut twenty or so players, 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:12.200 it looked like, and it was. It was absolutely madness. 0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:15.280 When I saw a Packers capologist kind of go through 0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:18.000 what they needed to do to keep just to franchise him. 0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:21.000 They still couldn't franchise him. It was after cutting like 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:24.160 twenty players and including like Zadarius Smith and some of 0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:28.400 the big players that they have. So Adams is likely 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:30.520 to be out of Green Bay one way or another, 0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:35.160 which is unfortunate. Obviously, that takes one hundred twenty three 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:39.760 catches and fifteen hundred yards off the team, which is insane. 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:45.240 And by the way, MVS also a free agent, Marcos Valdez, 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:49.800 Scantling and Equinamius st Brown all free agents. Alan Lazard 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:52.640 is actually a restricted free agent as well. He'll stay, 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:56.720 but he'll stay, and he's likely walking into the top role. 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.240 Now is that with Aaron Rodgers? Because if all Lazard's 0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:01.800 in the top role with Aaron Rodgers, I'm interested. Zard's 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:05.560 really interesting. And if he's not with Aaron Rodgers, he's 0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:09.200 got a a new quarterback who's little green, and he's 0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:12.640 probably gonna hit his top receiver early and often. Chris 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:16.600 Godwin with the Buccaneers is primed, is ready to potentially 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:20.000 leave the Buccaneers. No, Tom Brady. If Kyle Trask is 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:23.760 the quarterback, he'll be further incentivized to leave. I don't 0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:25.880 think they have anybody on that team that's ready to 0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:29.760 step up. Brady hates Tyler Johnson, Yeah, refused. I mean 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:33.720 when Tyler Johnson was playing constant snaps in the in 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:36.720 the second part of the season, after Antonio Brown was 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:38.880 gone and hurt and then gone, they still didn't never 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.480 throw to Tyler Johnson hates him. Scotty Miller was a 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:44.480 non factor. I think there's somebody else out there that 0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:46.640 will end up getting getting some reps, but I don't 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:48.360 think it's anybody on the team. Might just be Mike 0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:51.640 Evans over and over and over again, and they can't 0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:54.800 or they can't put god or they won't put Godwin 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:57.520 under the second franchise tag because he was franchise last 0:15:57.560 --> 0:16:01.680 year and the second one makes him just like outlandishly expensive. 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:04.760 So Godwin's gone and he's gonna find a new place 0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:06.760 to play this coming year. Christian Kirk and A. J. 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:11.160 Green are set to be free agents for Arizona. You 0:16:11.400 --> 0:16:15.480 um you know about Ron del Moore, and he had 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.120 moments where he flashed, but just a handful of moments. 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:21.000 He's a water bug, special talent. He destroyed the Vikings 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:24.080 in Week two and then probably was never really reliable again. 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:28.040 That guy that I've that I'm gonna talk about right 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:33.040 now is already my favorite offseason sleeper for fantasy use 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:36.600 going into next year. That's Antoine Wesley. Yeah, he was 0:16:36.960 --> 0:16:39.160 a touchdown hog kind of at the tail end of 0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:42.160 the year. Kyler found him a lot, and as we know, 0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:45.520 Arizona plays a lot of three and four wide receiver sets, 0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:47.760 probably more than just about anybody in the league, and 0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:52.240 Wesley really capitalized on that. With the DeAndre Hopkins injury, 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:54.920 I don't think they'll bring greenback. Christian Kirk has a 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:57.160 chance to come. He could come back um and he 0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:00.200 he usually plays the slot, so Wesley would probably we 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:05.320 slot in as that other guy. Yeah, so I like 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:07.280 I like him a little bit more than Ron Dale. 0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.560 He's tall, range, and you're right they liked throwing to 0:17:10.640 --> 0:17:13.159 him in the end zone. I think Antoin Wesley is 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:16.440 a fascinating sleeper. Interesting on the did you see the 0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:20.560 Kyler Murray unfollowed all of the Cardinals accounts and stuff 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:23.200 like that, and his Instagram. He took everything but two 0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:26.879 photos out of his Instagram account. I understand. Yeah, I 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:30.760 don't know why we should go back and and like 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:33.240 Kyler Murray think this is it's going to get better 0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:35.800 for him. I mean, they gave him, they improved his 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:40.080 offensive line, they gave him a an elite wide receiver 0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:42.359 to throw to. I don't why would what does Kyler 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:45.240 Murray have to be upset about? I don't know. They 0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:47.640 brought in J. J. Watt, they brought in zach Ertz, 0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:50.600 they brought in A. J. Green, They brought in guys 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:55.800 who could win DeAndre Hobbins exactly. I don't understand. I hope, 0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:59.240 I hope he's not a diva. Mike Williams coming off 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:04.720 probably his best NFL season yards, nine touchdowns, but now 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:06.600 he heads to free agency. What does that love with 0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:09.359 the Chargers. Don't you think Mike Williams would have wanted 0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:11.560 the season to end about Week eight and to go 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:14.680 to free agency at that point because he he had 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:18.760 he had he had those uhty six yards and nine touchdowns, 0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:22.359 and I think about of that production happened in the 0:18:22.359 --> 0:18:25.720 first eight weeks, at the first five weeks is so 0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:29.000 what I remember it as. Um. Josh Palmer, third round 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.719 draft pick from last year, had flashed a few at 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:34.280 a few moments over this year. Yeah, him and Jalen 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:38.800 Guiten were almost mirror images of themselves in in like 0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:41.600 production on the field. I think both have a shot 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:45.200 too to really shine next year, but they're probably both 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:49.240 Guitan's coming way later in in early like best ball drafts. 0:18:49.240 --> 0:18:52.520 He's like about forty spots later. But Palmer is in 0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:55.480 a good spot too, and and and both really stand 0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:57.560 to just kind of step up in this offense with 0:18:57.840 --> 0:19:00.400 air bear, which is a good thing to have. Last week, 0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.600 in advance of the Super Bowl, Arthur Blank talked about 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:05.840 Calvin Ridley and basically said, we don't know what's up, 0:19:06.040 --> 0:19:08.159 and you know, we we hope he stays, but we 0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:09.680 don't know if he wants to stay here. And it's 0:19:09.680 --> 0:19:11.879 really gonna be up to Calvin Ridley. He's gonna be 0:19:11.880 --> 0:19:14.720 on the fifth year of his rookie deal, um A, 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:17.840 which is the year where you make money. This is right, 0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:20.080 This is like the money year for him. So you know, 0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:24.040 you know, if for whatever his reasons were for stepping 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:28.119 away for the team, Um, they weren't financially motivated, because 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:31.520 this only hurts him financially, And so nobody could ever 0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:35.399 accuse Calvin Ridley of having you know done, you missed 0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:37.760 the season for that reason. But if you're the Falcons 0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:40.240 and you're looking at going into a fifth year with 0:19:40.400 --> 0:19:42.840 Ridley and and in his fourth year he missed half 0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:45.439 the season for you know, his personal reasons whatever, they 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:48.560 are not not judging there, but you gotta look at 0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:51.840 that asset and go, is it just time to trade 0:19:51.920 --> 0:19:55.960 Ridley get something for him at this point before we'd 0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:58.720 get nothing for him when he leaves after year five, 0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:02.639 which unless you franchise him or whatever. They've still got 0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:06.000 Matt Ryan with like three years left on a very 0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:08.840 expensive contract, and so they I don't think they're ready 0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:12.000 to totally rebuild, but really could be gone. Gauge could 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:20.119 be gone. So you know, there's they got no one left. Really, 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:22.800 they have nobody left, even Cordarrel Patterson, who might be 0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:25.960 a wide receiver and Bic circles Brian's Brian. I can 0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:32.880 hear him from way over there, Kyle Pitts receiver. Uh, 0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:37.040 let's go to Jamison Crowder and Braxton Barrios are both 0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:40.080 headed to free agency. Elijah Moore, who stepped up big 0:20:40.080 --> 0:20:42.280 time in the second half of the season, looks like 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:44.760 he's gonna walk into a lot of reps for the Jets. 0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:47.199 Well and Crowder and Barrios both kind of split the 0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:50.880 slot and both kind of played opposite each other. When 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:53.640 Crowder was hurt, Barrios stepped in. When Barrios was hurt, 0:20:53.680 --> 0:21:00.840 Crowder stepped in. But together nineties seven catches, almost nine 0:21:01.280 --> 0:21:05.160 yards and four touchdowns. That's a lot of work that 0:21:05.160 --> 0:21:07.439 that is going away from that offense and the Jets 0:21:07.680 --> 0:21:10.359 they have to top ten picks. Uh, There's there's a 0:21:10.440 --> 0:21:12.560 lot of decent wide receivers in this class. I think 0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:15.000 people kind of like this wide receiver class a little bit. 0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:18.080 So it would not surprise me if the Jets are 0:21:18.119 --> 0:21:20.280 in that wide receiver market and they bring another guy 0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:25.120 into more breakout he could he could absolutely be a stunner. 0:21:25.320 --> 0:21:28.280 Michael Gallup and Cedric Wilson. You know, the funny thing 0:21:28.320 --> 0:21:31.760 is you Gallop had the had the big injury early 0:21:31.760 --> 0:21:33.400 in the season, then he came on the field, played 0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:35.680 really really well, then he got hurt again, and when 0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:38.119 he wasn't on the field, it was Cedric Wilson on 0:21:38.160 --> 0:21:40.200 the field in his place, who was also playing well. 0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:43.000 And we all knew Gallop was hitting free agency. I don't, 0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:44.760 I don't. I think that we kind of missed that 0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:47.359
