Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly. 6 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: I am Paul Chargey in My co host this week 7 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: is Bryan Johnson. What's up. Good to talk to you again. 8 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: And this week's we're playing a game. You know a 9 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: lot of times you're just grinding up a bunch of 10 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: news and you know, all the latest stuff, and here's 11 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 1: what's happening to the draft of free agency. This is 12 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,959 Speaker 1: our would you rather game. We've done this from time 13 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 1: to time over the course of the Fantasy Football Weekly 14 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: regular season show. I'm gonna give you the average draft 15 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: position of two teammates, and I want you to choose 16 00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: one or the other. Factoring in the average draft position, 17 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,759 Speaker 1: you know, it's obvious which guy you'd rather have if 18 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: one of the other. But if you've got to pay 19 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 1: the price for one, who would you rather have? Let's 20 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: do it. We've got nine teammates to evaluate. The game 21 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: never gets old, by the way, but it stands the 22 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: test of time, and there's some good ones. Indeed it does. 23 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: We begin in Buffalo. Would you and the running backs? 24 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: Would you rather have Devin Singletary right now going off 25 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: with an average draft position of the fourth round, or 26 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: rookie running back Zack Moss with an average draft position 27 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: of the round. Devin Singletary was very good at the 28 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: end of last year. Zack Moss a bit of an unknown. 29 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: What do you think? Yeah, that's quite the disparity in rounds, 30 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: that are right. So I went right to your favorite 31 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: spot charts inside the five yard line for this one. 32 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: And uh, Devin Singletary a very exciting running back, but 33 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: kind of more of a scatback, certainly not a power back. 34 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: And us by his three carries inside the ten yard 35 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: line last year. I know he said inside the five, 36 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: but this is inside the ten obviously twice as far 37 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,839 Speaker 1: out is it? Five? Only ten carries or I'm sorry, 38 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 1: only three carries inside the ten. Frank Gore had eighteen, 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: Josh Allen had eleven. Yeah, Josh Allen nearly quadrupled these 40 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: carries inside the ten yard line. So right there, Zack Moss, 41 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: rookie at Utah been heralded as a five tool running back, 42 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: meaning he can run through you, run around you, just 43 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: run right by you, avoid you entirely. If you wants 44 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: pass protect, pass block, He's gonna absorb all of these 45 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: red zone carries that Frank Gore once occupied. So for me, 46 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: it's with the bullet Zack Moss easily in round fifteen. 47 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: I'm with you, it's Zack Moss. And I like Devin Singletary. 48 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: He was a good player and in PPR league still 49 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: have value. But Zack Moss is almost free in round fifteen. 50 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: And you hit on a lot of the key points 51 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: and you you got all my inside the five stuff. 52 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: I was. I was surprised to learn David single Tory seven. 53 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: Singletary scored one touchdown from inside the five last year. 54 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 1: He's got to score from distance. And you know we've 55 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: seen over the years the players who have to score 56 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: from distance. They put up some years they have a 57 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: three touchdown year. I mean, they just have clunkers where 58 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: it just doesn't work out that they score from distance. 59 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: The easy touchdowns that just that make a player transcended 60 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: are the ones that come from inside the five. And 61 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary isn't going to get those. And you mentioned, 62 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: you know, Zack Moss is a big bodied guy built 63 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: for goal line, and they drafted him specifically to be 64 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 1: that tough yards inside guy. He welcomes contact, he breaks tackles, 65 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: He's a finisher. Utah's all time leading rusher and all 66 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: time rushing touchdown leader, Zack Moss. He is the correct answer. 67 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: I believe, we both believe Zack Moss. Two votes for Zack. 68 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: He's been playing at higher elevation. That's Buffalo is at 69 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: sea level. By the way, Buffalo or at least Lake Love. 70 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: How exciting is Buffalo looking on paper like this is 71 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: the first time the early nineties. Yeah, man, they got 72 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: a fun looking team. But yeah, people are gonna start 73 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: to get more sharp to this where I think Zach 74 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: Moss could surpass Devin Singletary and a DP come late August. 75 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: Maybe no chance Za here to make an eleven rounds 76 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: now he pops off, and we're praying that there's preseason 77 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: games for once. We're praying for preseason games, right, but 78 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: what if he pops off anyway, that's a chance not happen, 79 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: all right? The next would you Rather Teammate? Edition? Would 80 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 1: you rather have? A Marie Cooper in round three or 81 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: seed Lamb rookie wide receiver in round nine. Obviously these 82 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: are Dallas wide receivers of Marie Cooper round three or 83 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: Seedee Lamb at round nine. Can I say Michael Gallup, No, 84 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: I know not right now, A MARII Cooper, it's a value. 85 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: He's valid for this. But it's the same old story 86 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: with a Mari Cooper. It's it. It really hasn't changed 87 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: since the trade to the Cowboys from the Raiders, where 88 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: he's been this roller coaster ride of emotion last year. 89 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: Four games over a hundred yards for Cooper, four under 90 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: twenty five yards, that he is not reliable in a 91 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: in in a scenario where you have to choose your 92 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: starters and if it's not best ball I did I found. 93 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: I came to the same analysis Dallas and in justice. 94 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: Dallas games are just thrown out at the Raiders games 95 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: because a lot of people like r fort of his games. 96 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: That was a lot. He had forty eight scoreless yards 97 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: or less in of his Dallas games for Marie Cooper. 98 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: Those are games that kill you. And that's just too 99 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: high of a clunker ratio for a Marie Cooper to 100 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: pay in the third round. Yeah, and then you bring 101 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: in Ceedee Lamb, who we were in agreement a couple 102 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 1: of months ago, the top wide receiver in this year's draft, 103 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: and Michael Gallops already there. You got it up and coming, 104 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: Blake Darwin uh And of course Zeke Tony Pollard is 105 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 1: an astounding football player pass catcher. So I'm just taking 106 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: the cheaper guy here. I'm not going Cooper. There's no 107 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: chance I'd rather take Ceedee Lamb all day. Ce Lamb 108 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: was my number one rookie wide receiver going into the draft, 109 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, absolutely electric after the catch, twenty six 110 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: broken tackles last year, number two in the n c 111 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: A among all wide receivers, forced a miss tackle on 112 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: over of his catches. It's insane. The best receiver in 113 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: Dallas never dropped. Seed Lamb never dropped a pass of 114 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: twenty plus yards in his three seasons at Oklahoma either. 115 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 1: And he was the best yard after after catch guy 116 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,239 Speaker 1: in this draft. So elusive, so electric after the catch, 117 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb by a mile. I still cannot believe Dallas 118 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: got him. I cannot put we can either, Denver and Well, 119 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: I was gonna say Oakland, Las Vegas passed for rugs 120 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: and find players and they're probably gonna have good, nice careers. 121 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: But I think Ceedee Lambs the best player in this draft. Definitely. 122 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: All Right, Our third would you rather teammate ad a 123 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: ship goes to Denver Melvin Gordon with his round three 124 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: average draft position, or Philip Lindsay going off in round eight? 125 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: Which would you rather have? This is probably one of 126 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: the tougher ones we're gonna go through today. Um. For 127 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: those who don't remember, Gordon held out with the charges 128 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: last year for the first three four games I think four, um, 129 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: But he ended up with the fifth most carries inside 130 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: the five yard line with thirteen, and his fifteen yards 131 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: inside the five was the third most on those thirteen carries. 132 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: And uh, Gordon scored as many touchdowns inside the five 133 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: as se Kwon Barkley, Nick Chubb and Levian Bell combined 134 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: last season, missing the first quarter of the year. Now, now, 135 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: Lindsay was no slouch inside the five either, eight carries 136 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: for fourteen yards and five touchdowns. That is Exuberg averaging 137 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: two yards for carry. We're gonna get some really horrible 138 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,239 Speaker 1: inside to five numbers a little later. Some other teams, 139 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: But I mean Lindsay Lindsay and dreaming at the same 140 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: number of carries inside the ten last year for Denver. 141 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: Of course Freeman Roy Streaman that is is an afterthought now, 142 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: but Lindsay had twice as many inside the five as Freeman. 143 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: So really this work, who who's gonna get it is 144 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: gonna be right down the middle. It seems I'm very 145 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: much on the fence. So I'm just gonna shut up 146 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: now and take the cheaper guy again and say, Philip Lindsay, 147 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: We've both been on the cheaper guy in every one 148 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: of these scenarios, and I'm taking Philip Lindsay here, but 149 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go for a little different direction than you did. 150 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: Is Melvin Gordon even that good? Debatable? It is? Pro 151 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:36,479 Speaker 1: Football Focus ranked him eighty five in yards after contact 152 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: eight five. I mean that's to take You're basically talking 153 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: about not just second string running backs on thirty two teams. 154 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: You're talking about the third string running the third best 155 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,599 Speaker 1: running backs and thirty two teams to get all the 156 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: way to eighty fifth and yards after contact next to 157 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: him at ranking eighty five, where guys like Frank Gore, 158 00:08:55,559 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: when Dell Smallwood, David Montgomery, fullback Sea j Ham. These 159 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: are the guys that have yards after contact equivalent to 160 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon. He's been three point nine yards per carry 161 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: or less in every season, but one three point nine 162 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: or less last year. Three point eight. Austin Ekeler, running 163 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: behind the same exact line as Melvin Gordon, has averaged 164 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: five and a half yards per carry, five point two 165 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: yards per carry, and four point two yards per carry 166 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: over the last three seasons. I mean it's you know, 167 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: Austin Neckla has got all the same disadvantages of the 168 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 1: same offense, same offensive line, and he's popping off in 169 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: an extra yard and a half yard yard and a 170 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: half per carry. So I don't know that Melvin Gordon 171 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: honestly is even that good anymore. And I'll never forgive him, 172 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 1: even though it's not entirely his fault. Of course, Melvin Gordon, 173 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: that is, for not scoring a touchdown, one single touchdown 174 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: in his rookie year. This is statistical ottity. And then 175 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: of course the next year was like a season, and 176 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: you know everybody got him at a cheap price. We'll 177 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: take a break when we come back. Three more would 178 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: you rathers? Including some high profile players on the Cleveland Browns. 179 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul Charge and Brian 180 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: Johnson with you high profile players on the Cleveland Browns. 181 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: Who would you rather have? This is our teammates edition 182 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: of would you Rather Go? To Cleveland? It could go 183 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: a couple of directions. In Cleveland, We're going to the 184 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: wide receivers. Odell Beckham has got an average draft position 185 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: of round three. Jarvis Landry has an average draft position 186 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: of the end of round five. Who would you rather take? 187 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: Factoring in the average draft position? Brian Johnson, where were 188 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: we a year ago? Just how excited about this Cleveland 189 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: Browns offense team? In general? Everybody, everybody wanted a piece 190 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: of the Browns and it turned out there was one 191 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: for two really good player to get and that was 192 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb or maybe Cream Hunt later. Yeah, but uh yeah, 193 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham clearly a Bust of the Year candidate last season. 194 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: I'd probably give it to someone like Juju Smith Schuster 195 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: over Beckham. Beckham still David Dust from last year. Yeah, 196 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: he had a good first half though, but uh, Juju 197 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: throughout was just painful. But anyway back to Beckham and Landry, 198 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Beckham, like you said, going mid round three 199 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: right now, some leekus. He was going through it overall 200 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: last year, so that's quite a discount on his side. 201 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: But at this time last year I had Odell Beckham 202 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,199 Speaker 1: as my number one wide receiver. Over the course of 203 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: the preseason, I had lowered him down to like number four. 204 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: Still an epic with yeah, I'm he he scares me. Still, 205 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: I think we've seen pique Odell Beckham. I know Eli 206 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: Manning is not the ideal quarterback for a stud wide receiver, 207 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: but back in those days, Beckham was the guy and 208 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: that was it. And Beckham's not the guy here. And 209 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: what scares me most about Beckham is last year sixty 210 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: sorry I'm looking this up real quick, sixty three of 211 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: his games he fell outside the top thirty wide receivers. 212 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, Odell Beckham. Jarvis Landry, on the other hand, 213 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: finished top five in PPR formats last year in the 214 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: second half of the season after a slow start where 215 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: they're probably just forest feeding Odell Beckham the ball soda. 216 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: Long story short, it's uh Landry is a safer play. 217 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: Beckham's a ceiling pick in the mid third, and there 218 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: are guys like Kenny Golladay, and honestly, I would rather 219 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: take Calvin Ridley two rounds ahead where he's going than 220 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: over a guy like Odell Beckham. He just doesn't excite 221 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: me like he used to. So I'm going discount again 222 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: with Landry. I'm taking This is the first time we differ. 223 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: I'm taking Odell Beckham. We know what Jarvis Landry is 224 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: all about. If you want a wide receiver with four 225 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: five touchdowns, Jarvis Landry is your man. That is your guy. 226 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,479 Speaker 1: You want eighty catches, one thousand yards and no touchdowns, 227 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: that's your guy. He brings no upside to the table. 228 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham brings double digit touchdown upside sometimes something he's 229 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: done three years he's had double digit touchdowns. And I 230 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: really believe this is the year we thought we were 231 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: going to get last year from the Browns offense. Kevin 232 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 1: Stefanski is a proven good coach, not long track record, 233 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: but he just got Kirk Cousins the best year of 234 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: his career. He fed both two different wide receivers from Minnesota. 235 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: Both Stephan Diggs and Adam Felan both got fed. Both 236 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: of these guys can get fed here. I really do 237 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: believe Beckham is going to rebound nicely. Here. You get 238 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: him in round three when he was going off the 239 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: board in round one and early round two last year. 240 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: I can get him at double the number of picks 241 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: his technical his average draft positions actually thirty to be 242 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: more specific, he was going off the board at roughly 243 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: fifteen or less last year. So I'm taking the discount 244 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: that's built into Odell Beckham coming off a down but 245 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: not terrible season. Um, by the way, he had a 246 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: thousand year. Odell Beckham had a thousand yards last year. 247 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: I mean it was not a total bust season for 248 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: Odell Buckham as you positioned it. I don't believe I'm 249 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: not gonna die on the Jarvis Landry Hill. I can. 250 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: I can't contest it too much. Next we go to 251 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: Green Bay and we're back to the running back position. 252 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: Which of these teammates would you rather have Aaron Jones 253 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: paying a second round price for him or A J. 254 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: Dillon the rookie running back in round fifteen? So Aaron 255 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: Jones speaking of a roller coaster ride, he certainly was 256 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: one last year. Party mom looking up some numbers here. 257 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: So Jones finished basically as the second running back in 258 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: PPR formats Uh certainly was boosted up by some monster games. 259 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: The one versus Dallas comes to mind. Four touchdowns, I 260 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: think four touchdowns like two fifty combo yards something like that. 261 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: But when when he when he hits the floor, he 262 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: hits it hard. And last year he had thirty overt 263 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: of his games fell outside the top thirty at his position. 264 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: And for comparison's sake, you have you got guys like 265 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, Dalvin Cook. They're under ten falling outside of 266 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: the top thirty. Yeah, I mean even like Derrick Henry 267 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: seven percent, Austin Ekeler of your games outside the top 268 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: thirty is a lot that when you're paying Yeah, And 269 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what what what A J. Dillon's gonna 270 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: do in his rookie year. I don't know what any 271 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: rookies are gonna do this year, to be honest with you, 272 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: with no mini camps, we don't have to get into 273 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: that now. But I'm still not drafting Aaron Jones at 274 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: this price tag. You couldn't pay me to take Aaron 275 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: Jones because he certainly could win you your league if 276 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: everything falls place for him, But odds always gonna lose 277 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: it for you because it's he's two up and down 278 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: for me for going in the first second round too risky. 279 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: Last year, Jones saw a two to one ratio of 280 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: carries over Jamal Williams, and so really, a J. Dillon 281 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: he's gonna get some carries this year. They drafted him 282 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: in the second round and the front office took all 283 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: kinds of heat for the pick. They're gonna want to 284 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: validate that pick by getting A J. Dillon at least 285 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: some run this year. So let me ask you this, Brian. 286 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: Does A J. Dillon's carries come out of Aaron Jones 287 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 1: or Jamal Williams or can we not know? I don't 288 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: think you can really know, but if I had to 289 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: pick one, it seems like you would be Aaron Jones 290 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: car not Jamal Williams. And it's like they're just gonna 291 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: relegate Williams to this third third down rule because Williams 292 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: is never in. You know, he was an average ball carrier, right, 293 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: He's more of a receiving back pass protector. So it 294 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: seems like the touches when it comes to rushes will 295 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: come from Aaron Jones and not Williams. So yeah, I'm 296 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm a J Dillon over Jones all day, if I 297 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: gotta pick one. Jones and Williams are free agents next year, 298 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: and so you know, there could be that could factor 299 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: into this in some in some way. You know, we've 300 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: we talked a lot about the possibility of them of 301 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: teams going to Marco Murray on a on a running 302 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: back and grinding them up. Usually they don't, but some, 303 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: you know, some may. And if that's the case, Aaron 304 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: Jones could get a ton of run if they decide 305 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: to do that, and then position A J. Dillon as 306 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: an air apparent for the next season, and they could 307 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: rest effectively rest a J. Dillon this year now also important, 308 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: and you've spent a lot of time focusing on yards 309 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: in it carries inside the five, which is awfully important. 310 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 1: But you can't talk about a J. Dillon not talking 311 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: about his size. He's two hundred fifty pounds, he's six 312 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: ft tall. That guy can dominate the line of scrimmage 313 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: the catch though. Last year, Jones is super productive inside 314 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: the five. He carried the ball seventeen times from inside 315 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: the five he scored ten. That's a nice ratio. You're 316 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: really you're looking for and somebody's spent a lot of 317 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: time grinding up data from inside to five. You're looking 318 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: for a fifty percent return on touchdowns and those carries. 319 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: He turned seventeen carries into ten touchdowns. That's better than 320 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 1: so Jones isn't bad there, But man, A J. Dillon's 321 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: just built for that use. Um, I am with you, 322 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: and I'm on A J. Dillon, But it's this one. 323 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: To me. It was the toughest call on the board, 324 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: and I went back and forth. At one point I 325 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: had this as Aaron Jones, then I went to Dylon. 326 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: But the only reason I went to Dylan's because he's 327 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: so cheap. And round fifteen, I think Jamal Williams turns 328 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: out to be a bit of a non factor this year, 329 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: and I he's he's the third choice out of all 330 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 1: of this. Let's go to our third would you rather teammate? 331 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 1: Addition for this particular segment, We've got one segment more 332 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: in the show. We go to the tight ends. There 333 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: are many There are many tight ends tight end position 334 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: battles to sort of talk about, would you rather have 335 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski in round six or O. J. Howard in 336 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: round eighteen, making effectively free last pick of your draft 337 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 1: in typical sized leagues. I thought we're gonna talk about 338 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: my boys in Arizona and breakdown Dan Arnold and Max Williams. 339 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: Maybe next week. Oh yeah, so yeah. Gronk making his return, 340 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: reuniting with Tom Brady. Of course, um word has come 341 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: out recently, Bruce Arians says Tampa Bay plants. He's a 342 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: lot of twelve personnel. They're gonna both two wide receivers, 343 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: suit tight ends, one running back. So let's not forget 344 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: Cameron Bread by the way, either, because he's still on 345 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: the team. And Cameron Brad was like a fifteen tight 346 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: end last year, did better than O. J. Howard. But 347 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: we're talking Howard and Gronk. Here. What it boils down 348 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: to is where Gronk is going. There are you're banking 349 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: on his ceiling. Basically, you're banking on fourteen fifteen games, 350 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: and I just don't see him playing like a full season. 351 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 1: I'd rather be taking guys like Cook, Austin Hooper, Mike 352 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: Sicky in the in the in that mid range where 353 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: Gronk is going, I would quote unquote play. It's safer 354 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: with O. J. Howard, who was a massive disappointment last year, 355 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: but he did have a stronger second half. Was the 356 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: overall tight end first half of the season. The second 357 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 1: half things started to look up. I do think he 358 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: sees more work than break and I just don't see 359 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: Gronk living up to his a DP where he's going. 360 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: I think people are gonna be reaching for the past, 361 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: so I gotta go as much as I don't really 362 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: want Oja Howard, if I had to pick one, I'd 363 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: take o J. Howard for Gronk. Tell me about some 364 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: of the late round tight ends you do like this year? Yeah, 365 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: this year. I'm not joking. I really do like Dan 366 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: Arnold and that's super late. It is super late. Um, 367 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: I could talk about this all day. I like, Uh, 368 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,919 Speaker 1: it depends on your league. He's creeping up and if 369 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 1: you want to go super sleeper, I think um Trey 370 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:19,479 Speaker 1: Burton can rebound in Indie. Jack Doyle stayed healthy and 371 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: what about Jack Doyle. Jack Doyle, well, I think he 372 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: I wouldn't call him. He's probably going top fifteen. He's 373 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: more of a you know, yeah, but it's the fifteen 374 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: tight end of the board. He's going around right. Here's 375 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: that's why I like Rob Gronkowski. Yes, I'm taking his upside. 376 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: I'm taking the upside. But if I were to tell 377 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: you right now and listeners right now, that Rob Gronkowski 378 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: would finish this year with the most touchdowns, would you 379 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: be surprised? Like from that's not possible. It's certainly feasible. 380 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: It's certainly He's done it many times. Right, So he 381 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 1: enters into the season with as healthy as he's been 382 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 1: in years. He's knows his quarterback intimately, he's Rob Gonkrowski 383 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: is only thirty one years old. Travis Kelsey is going 384 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: to turn thirty one in this season. We don't think 385 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: of Travis Kelsey is old, right, Gronkowski is not so 386 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: old that he can't be still good. And yes, I agree, 387 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: I agree that you're banking. You're banking a bit on 388 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: the upside for Gronk. But if you believe that you 389 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: can get a Jack Doyle in round twelve around thirteen 390 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: and back that pick up with somebody that can still contribute, 391 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: I like it. I'm taking Rob Gronkowski. I had a 392 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: feeling you would say that I've been a Gronkowski apologist 393 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: for years. Uh, sometimes to my own personal detriment. As 394 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: it's turned out. Okay, we're gonna take one more break. 395 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: When we come back, We've got our final three sets 396 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: of Would You Rather Players? Teammates Edition. It's Fantasy Football Weekly. 397 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchie and Brian 398 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: Johnson with you. It's a teammates edition of Would You Rather? 399 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: Will give you two players on the same team, same 400 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,479 Speaker 1: position in who would you rather have? Between them? If 401 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: you have to pay the average draft position between these players. 402 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: We go back to Buffalo. We already talked about the 403 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: running backs. Now we go to the wide receivers. Stefon 404 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: Diggs going off the board in round four, John Brown 405 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: going off the board in round number nine. Who would 406 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 1: you Rather Have? This is another tough one and going 407 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: back to Buffalo, it's gonna be exciting offense. As we 408 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, Let's let's just start with the quarterback for 409 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,439 Speaker 1: a second. Josh Allen, as we all know, dead last 410 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,479 Speaker 1: in completion percentage last season, less than fifty, which is 411 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: not good. We knew that was going to be the 412 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 1: case with him coming out of school. That's who he 413 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: was in college too, Clearly a threat on the ground 414 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 1: and uh, he's unique in that way. Uh So John 415 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 1: Brown not a big guy, he's a burner, doesn't have 416 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: a massive catch radius, and he's looking at his h 417 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 1: We're talking about the outside the top thirty percentage. We've 418 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: done this for other players. John Brown of his games 419 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,959 Speaker 1: last year, we're outside of the top thirty wide receiver position. 420 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 1: He had some big games. He finished as a top 421 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: twenty PPR wide receiver on the season. But again, that 422 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: is a massive roller coaster ride. I trust Stephon Diggs 423 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: with a chip on his shoulder. Mind you right, Who's 424 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: sixty seven percent catch rate last season with the Vikings 425 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: would have led all Buffalo receivers that had more than 426 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 1: fifty targets in So I just a huge difference in quarterbacking. 427 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 1: It is true, but his high catch rate, not every 428 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: past was perfect from Chris. He's just a more complete 429 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: receiver than John Brown. John Brown. And so here's the 430 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: one where I and I actually have I think Diggs 431 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: has his auction value is kind of depressed from when 432 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: he's been on the Vikings, So I actually have a 433 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: lot of digs exposure. So I'm going digs here. I think, uh, 434 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,439 Speaker 1: I think he's in for a big year and he 435 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: can make up for the inaccuracy of Josh Allen at times. 436 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: I'm going John Brown because of the differential in cost. 437 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 1: Round four versus round nine is a big differential. Um, 438 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: they have double, almost exactly double the ADP. The it's 439 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: uh Stefan Diggs is going off the board at a 440 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: DP of fifty six. John Brown's a hundred eight. I mean, 441 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: that's that's a big differential. John Brown was a thousand 442 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 1: yard receiver last year, six touchdowns. He's great. I should 443 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 1: I failed to mention. I hope this isn't the case. 444 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: But he did have you know, a ton of injury issues, 445 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: mainly in his head right, a lot of concussions with Arizona, 446 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 1: which didn't pop up last year. But that was somewhat 447 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: that's fair certain in my I think I think that's 448 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: fair too. Um. I think that there's an assumption that 449 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 1: Diggs is gonna destroy John Brown's value, that dig is 450 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: gonna show up and just siphon every ball off. But 451 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, one of the things that I've been saying 452 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: for years, Brian, by and large, all all rising water lifts, 453 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: all ships, and I think Diggs is just as likely 454 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: to help John Brown as anything else. Much like we 455 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: saw Theeling and Diggs get fed for years in Minnesota. 456 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: I believe we're gonna see Brown and Diggs get fed 457 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: here and that Diggs is gonna take number one coverage 458 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: away from John Brown, double coverage away from John Brown, 459 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna hit more of these deep 460 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 1: balls than he did before. Digs also a good deep 461 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: ball receiver, did it with Kirk all the time, So 462 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: I think I think this this offense is remains a 463 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: stretch offense that's gonna feed both guys. Uh, they're both 464 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: I think gonna have big games and bad good games 465 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 1: and bad games because the quarterbacking is is also very inconsistent. 466 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: But one of them is round four and I'm taking 467 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: John Brown and round nine. Yeah, and let's not forget 468 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,479 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley. Just like when we talked about the Dallas 469 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,919 Speaker 1: receivers and we didn't talk about Michael Galp, Cole Beasley 470 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: finished as inside the top twenty in the second half 471 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: of the season in PPR League last year. He will 472 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 1: be a factor and probably a nuisance for Well either 473 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 1: or John Brown or if you think Brown, you know, 474 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: we know Brown's a speedster. We know Digs can can 475 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: catch these long balls as they are running down field 476 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: and pulling defenses with them. Here's Cole Beasley underneath. Could 477 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: be sitting on a really nice PPR season. I can't 478 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: wait to watch this Buffalo team. And we go back 479 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: to Cleveland. We made passing reference to this earlier. Now 480 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: we go to the running back position and another I 481 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: think brutally tough decision. Nick Chubb is going off the 482 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: board in the middle of round two, Kareem Hunt the 483 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 1: end of round five. Which of these teammates would you 484 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 1: rather take? Chubbing round two? Hunt in round five? Um? Again, 485 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: I went back and forth on this too. This was 486 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: a tough one. I like them both. Uh, And for 487 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: those who forgot, Kareem Hunt missed the first eight games 488 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: last year for suspension. But let's just go to Chub. 489 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back to, uh, your favorite spot inside 490 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: the five charge And this was astonishing to me. I 491 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: don't know if you've looked into this yet. I'm assuming 492 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 1: you have, but uh, last year it Chubb had fifteen 493 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: attempts inside the five, which is near the top right, 494 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: for negative fourteen yards. Car And no that's not that's 495 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 1: not one big eight yards. I don't know how that happened. 496 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: And only two touchdowns on fifteen carries inside the five, 497 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: like he can't get it done. And then you look 498 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 1: at Hunt. They gave him one try in sid for 499 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: three yards in a touchdown. Maybe try that fourteen more 500 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: times and you know Hunt, Hunt outscored uh Chubb in 501 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: the second half in PPR leagues. He didn't. He was 502 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 1: never like a top twelve running back, but he was 503 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: a very safe top twenty play. Chub is volatile and 504 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: this is a clear I wouldn't say clear cup. I'm 505 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: going the cheaper guy with Hunt because I think he 506 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: still could be the best running back in the NFL. 507 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 1: We all know his off the field issues have deterred 508 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 1: his career, but not long ago he was the best 509 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: running back in fantasy football. So I'm going on in 510 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: heavier PPR leagues, Kareem Hunt outscored Nick Chubb upon his 511 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: return last year. Hunt was just playing better once he 512 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: came back, and Hunt ranked number three in Pro football 513 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: focus is elusiveness rating last year, and despite playing only 514 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: half of the season, Hunt broke the seventh most tackles 515 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: after the catch among all runners. You pro rate that 516 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 1: to a full season and Hunt would have been number 517 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: one and tackles broken after the catch. He's a special player. 518 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: The only concern is you hope he keeps his head 519 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: on his shoulders. Really, that's that's it. He's heading into 520 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,199 Speaker 1: free agency. He has a monetary reason to keep his 521 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: head on his shoulders. Now, Chub is no slout. You know, 522 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: Chubb was number two and avoided tackles last year. For 523 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 1: a big man like him, that's really impressive. I think 524 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 1: this really, I think you hit this right on the head. 525 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 1: Do you believe Nick Chubb will continue to get carries, 526 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: get all the carries inside the five, and my data 527 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: showed sixteen carries inside the five year showed fifteen um 528 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: either way, he converted it into a trivial number of touchdowns. 529 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: And if and if Chub is if that thing is 530 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: gonna even itself out, this gets weighted in the favor 531 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: of Kareem Hunt by a lot. If those touchdowns are 532 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: gonna be if those carries inside the five are gonna 533 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: be split between them, and it's reasonable to think they could. 534 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: And that's why Kareem Hunt at the end of round five, 535 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: to me feels like can better pick than Nick Chubb. 536 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: In round two Now, if you told me you're in 537 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: a league with without PPR, if you're in a standard 538 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: scoring league, it's not a question. It's clearly Nick Chubb. 539 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: But most of us get something for receptions. And now 540 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: I'm on cream hunt. Also this again the DeMarco Murray thing. 541 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: Kareem hunts on his way. He's awaited free agency, so 542 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: they might throw a lot of extra usage to him, 543 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: grind him up and let him go last one, and 544 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: it's time for this. Yes, I have not been able 545 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: to talk about Sad Trombone Ski for two months. There's 546 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: been no reason. Well, I'm gonna give you your chance. 547 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: Because I looked at this and I was like, come on, 548 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: I'm going forward. I'm gonna let go. Do you want 549 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: Do you want Sad trombone Ski or Nick Fools? Now 550 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: they're both going off that round twenty four, So it's 551 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: that's both round twenty four, which means they're undrafted in 552 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: most leagues. Which would you rather have Nick Foles or 553 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: Sad Trombollsky? What would Nick Foles play like? I feel 554 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: like I got something like that. That's Doug Flutie, You're 555 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: I believe right there. I'll wait, I'll wait for this 556 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: and so I can stop laughing. Um, the end is 557 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: the best part. By the way, So, how many quarterbacks 558 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: are we starting in this league? Decisions, you gotta pick one, 559 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: you have to roster one of the Foles has always 560 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: kind of excelled as the guy that comes in right, 561 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: like the Jeff Hostetler role I remember. So I think 562 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,239 Speaker 1: if I had to pick one, I'm gonna go with 563 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: true Whiskey because I think the Bears they surely invested 564 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: the draft capital way way too much in True Whisky. 565 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: Just put him out there in the first three or 566 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: four weeks see if he can hit that magical ceiling 567 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: that someone saw that front office. We saw sort of 568 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: glimmers of it in the past, but it's not gonna 569 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: come to fruition. So I would just I take trub 570 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: Whisky my last pick and pray I get it right now. 571 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: Folds has demonstrated season long upside that Tribhisky can't touch. 572 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: Trubisky mostly by his legs, has some game to game, 573 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: like if your best ball and you don't have to 574 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:35,959 Speaker 1: try guests when that game is gonna come, that he's 575 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: gonna run for thirty yards in a touchdown. Well, here's 576 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: my angle, they're gonna move him to running back over 577 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: David Montgomery. They could. Um, that's that's where true whisky 578 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: can help you. But otherwise, over a season long, we've 579 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: seen Nick Foles be fantasy relevant for long stretches of 580 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: time with Philadelphia. So the presumption is that if, if 581 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: this is a season long conversation, we would rather have 582 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: Nick Foles. And yes, I'm sorry, I'll never forget it 583 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: was fortunate enough to roster him in DFS A day 584 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: the seven touchdown game for Nick Foles be Raiders. Yes, wow, 585 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure what did you That wasn't that 586 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: wasn't the big pay day But okay, but yeah, that 587 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: that I'll always remember that game. Yeah, I've been the 588 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: seven touchdown game. Anyone could score seven touchdowns against the 589 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: Raiders in those days. These days, we don't know. I 590 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 1: think the Raiders are sitting on a nice season. I 591 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: really do. Uh well, we'll well, we'll break down the 592 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: Raiders in due course. Thanks for listening.
