1
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:18,880
It's week 5 and despite A1 day 
delay, the stat chasing boys are

2
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:23,590
back to take you through how all
of the injury shakeups are going

3
00:00:23,590 --> 00:00:27,430
to impact your fantasy teams and
how we can best take advantage 

4
00:00:27,710 --> 00:00:31,110
of the new situations emerging 
in the fantasy landscape. 

5
00:00:31,710 --> 00:00:38,750
This is stat chasing Pat Fryer 
Helmos. 

6
00:00:38,750 --> 00:00:41,870
This is why. 
This is why I'm hot. 

7
00:00:41,870 --> 00:00:47,230
Anita, hand job, fix your side, 
Jamar and also play Chase. 

8
00:00:47,990 --> 00:00:52,830
You can't handle the heat. 
It looks like we're finally at 

9
00:00:52,830 --> 00:01:03,090
this point here, right? 
Hello. 

10
00:01:04,370 --> 00:01:06,850
Thank you for joining us 
tonight. 

11
00:01:06,850 --> 00:01:11,650
Drico, Glad to be here with you.
Despite our one day delay, we're

12
00:01:11,650 --> 00:01:14,970
back in the saddle here to take 
you through all the charts for 

13
00:01:14,970 --> 00:01:18,450
the week. 
A lot of injuries this week, 

14
00:01:18,490 --> 00:01:21,350
feels like. 
I'm sure that we do this every 

15
00:01:21,350 --> 00:01:23,110
season. 
Oh my gosh, there's so many 

16
00:01:23,110 --> 00:01:27,750
injuries this season. 
But man, with Richardson and a 

17
00:01:27,750 --> 00:01:30,750
Chan and all all these exciting 
players getting injured, it it 

18
00:01:30,750 --> 00:01:32,830
felt particularly brutal this 
week. 

19
00:01:32,830 --> 00:01:34,350
I don't know how you felt about 
a trick up. 

20
00:01:35,310 --> 00:01:43,590
And devastated I I I've been 
really happy with my start of 

21
00:01:43,590 --> 00:01:47,190
the season and then and and and 
that's in large part. 

22
00:01:47,670 --> 00:01:50,430
High exposure to a Chan. 
High exposure to to Justin 

23
00:01:50,430 --> 00:01:55,070
Jefferson and one of my better 
teams has Anthony Richardson. 

24
00:01:55,830 --> 00:01:58,870
So definitely, yeah, definitely 
been a blow. 

25
00:01:59,510 --> 00:02:04,950
And my my my coke take is that 
hopefully some of these guys 

26
00:02:04,950 --> 00:02:09,270
come back before the end of the 
year and maybe those teams that 

27
00:02:09,270 --> 00:02:12,710
were really good they're just 
good enough to get them true and

28
00:02:12,750 --> 00:02:15,950
and maybe I can get some unique 
Justin Jefferson teams. 

29
00:02:16,750 --> 00:02:21,630
I was I was saying the same 
thing and I I was trying to make

30
00:02:21,630 --> 00:02:23,550
sure that it wasn't Cope. 
I was looking. 

31
00:02:23,550 --> 00:02:28,990
We just finished putting up the 
the BBM 4 leaderboard with all 

32
00:02:28,990 --> 00:02:31,990
the player combos and like you 
can see how people were drafting

33
00:02:32,430 --> 00:02:35,190
over at Spike week. 
And I was looking, I'm like one 

34
00:02:35,190 --> 00:02:38,670
of the the people in the entire 
tournament with the largest 

35
00:02:38,670 --> 00:02:41,980
amount of a Chan. 
And so I really was trying to 

36
00:02:41,980 --> 00:02:43,860
make sure that this was not a 
cope take. 

37
00:02:43,860 --> 00:02:47,260
But I'm pretty sure that given 
his price, where he went all 

38
00:02:47,260 --> 00:02:51,140
summer, he's already done enough
to like you you would be happy 

39
00:02:51,140 --> 00:02:54,140
with a player that delivered, 
you know Spike with, yeah, that 

40
00:02:54,140 --> 00:02:56,500
magnitude over the course of a 
season. 

41
00:02:56,500 --> 00:02:59,100
Like it's not a smash if he 
never plays another game the 

42
00:02:59,100 --> 00:03:00,420
rest of the season, it's not a 
smash. 

43
00:03:00,460 --> 00:03:03,180
But it's like that was enough. 
You know I got I got enough. 

44
00:03:03,500 --> 00:03:09,170
And so my my hope and my my cope
is I think that there's a pretty

45
00:03:09,170 --> 00:03:11,610
good chance he comes back 
healthy later in the season. 

46
00:03:12,010 --> 00:03:14,730
And what we're doing is we're 
culling some of the weaker A 

47
00:03:14,730 --> 00:03:18,210
Chan teams and I tend to think 
that my teams in general are are

48
00:03:18,210 --> 00:03:20,570
drafted stronger than the field 
on average. 

49
00:03:21,090 --> 00:03:25,050
And so I'll hopefully be able to
get a disproportionate amount of

50
00:03:25,130 --> 00:03:28,170
A Chan into the playoffs 
especially since I have so much 

51
00:03:28,170 --> 00:03:31,290
of them. 
So that's that's kind of my and 

52
00:03:31,290 --> 00:03:34,610
I I think you can kind of extend
that to a lot of these guys that

53
00:03:34,610 --> 00:03:39,910
like obviously Justin Jefferson 
you know his draft cost was 

54
00:03:39,910 --> 00:03:43,590
significantly higher but he's 
already done a lot for you. 

55
00:03:43,590 --> 00:03:46,790
You know like sure Chase had 
that 50 point game, but Chase 

56
00:03:46,790 --> 00:03:49,390
put up a couple stinkers while 
Jefferson was doing Jefferson 

57
00:03:49,390 --> 00:03:51,750
things and you know cut miss the
the four games. 

58
00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:55,270
So I I kind of think that these 
Jefferson teams, these are Chan 

59
00:03:55,270 --> 00:03:57,710
teams, they might end up being 
OK. 

60
00:03:58,030 --> 00:04:00,150
The ones that I'm pretty 
concerned about are the two 

61
00:04:00,150 --> 00:04:03,310
quarterback Richardson teams, 
just because it does sound like 

62
00:04:03,310 --> 00:04:05,820
that injury is going to be 
pretty serious. 

63
00:04:05,820 --> 00:04:09,260
But if you happen to have your 
other quarterback, like if you 

64
00:04:09,260 --> 00:04:13,140
got like a A2 of Richardson or 
like a Herbert Richardson, 

65
00:04:13,140 --> 00:04:16,019
something where you've got a 
really strong other quarterback 

66
00:04:16,019 --> 00:04:20,140
at cost, I think those could be 
really interesting come playoff 

67
00:04:20,140 --> 00:04:22,220
time. 
Obviously it stinks for regular 

68
00:04:22,220 --> 00:04:24,860
season prizes or like drafters 
style format. 

69
00:04:25,060 --> 00:04:28,790
We're just trying to accumulate 
the most points, like like in a 

70
00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:30,830
drafters tournament. 
If you have Justin Jefferson, 

71
00:04:30,830 --> 00:04:34,590
your team's dead, which is it's 
so crazy, The differences in the

72
00:04:34,590 --> 00:04:36,950
format, like you have a chant. 
It was like one of the best 

73
00:04:36,950 --> 00:04:38,470
picks you could have made. 
Team's dead. 

74
00:04:38,470 --> 00:04:39,710
Have fun buddy. 
See you next. 

75
00:04:39,710 --> 00:04:45,590
Season, right, right. 
So let's say, I think we should 

76
00:04:45,670 --> 00:04:49,750
get into the quarterback chart 
here. 

77
00:04:50,230 --> 00:04:52,870
So gonna add that worked out 
pretty good. 

78
00:04:53,310 --> 00:04:57,940
And so like always. 
We this is a quarterback 

79
00:04:57,940 --> 00:05:01,260
efficiency chart and on the 
horizontal axis we've got 

80
00:05:01,260 --> 00:05:05,380
adjusted yards per tent which is
it's kind of like yards per tent

81
00:05:05,420 --> 00:05:09,340
rewards touchdowns and punish 
the interceptions. 

82
00:05:10,020 --> 00:05:14,980
And then we have touchdown rate 
which is I guess pretty 

83
00:05:14,980 --> 00:05:18,220
important for your pocket 
passers, they need to be thrown 

84
00:05:18,220 --> 00:05:22,860
touchdown, pretty good clip. 
But then also it kind of can 

85
00:05:22,860 --> 00:05:25,460
kind of also be like a 
volatility measure. 

86
00:05:26,070 --> 00:05:29,510
Where if somebody's throwing for
good yardage but not getting the

87
00:05:29,510 --> 00:05:35,350
touchdowns, then that can 
possibly signal they could be in

88
00:05:35,350 --> 00:05:38,350
line for positive regression on 
that metric. 

89
00:05:38,630 --> 00:05:42,550
And then the size of the bubble,
because this is fantasy 

90
00:05:42,550 --> 00:05:46,790
football, central centric and 
the size of the bubble is for 

91
00:05:46,790 --> 00:05:51,470
rushing yardage. 
Yeah, I when I was putting this 

92
00:05:51,470 --> 00:05:55,200
chart together this week, a lot 
of the guys you know held their 

93
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,040
trend is same, same that I 
expected. 

94
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,320
A couple guys did enough for me 
where I was like, OK, I need to 

95
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,840
reevaluate how I'm assessing 
this player. 

96
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,960
The the first one for me was 
Brock Purdy. 

97
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,920
The way that I had viewed him 
prior to this week and you know,

98
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,480
it certainly helped that I was 
paying a lot of attention to 

99
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,920
that game as I watched my 
Cowboys get absolutely 

100
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,760
curbsumbed. 
But I I think that what we're 

101
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,840
seeing with Purdy and it it 
makes sense, it translates with 

102
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:29,600
how the offenses compare and the
similar systems is he's just 

103
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,960
like diet beta Tua, right? 
Like he he's not gonna do quite 

104
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,680
as much as Tua, but they're like
they're being asked to do 

105
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,960
similar stuff. 
They've got these incredible 

106
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,600
weapons that can deliver huge 
splash plays and help sustain 

107
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,960
these high touchdown rates that 
you need from these pocket 

108
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,840
passers. 
Neither of them are doing 

109
00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:51,980
anything on the ground. 
And so I'm starting to look at 

110
00:06:51,980 --> 00:06:57,140
party kind of as Diet Tua and 
wish that I had come around to 

111
00:06:57,140 --> 00:06:59,620
that during the offseason 
because I would have drafted a 

112
00:06:59,620 --> 00:07:02,580
lot more of them. 
And given his costs and where he

113
00:07:02,580 --> 00:07:04,940
went, he definitely looks like 
he was a strong pick. 

114
00:07:05,620 --> 00:07:08,820
So I'm going to have to hold the
L on my underweight party 

115
00:07:08,820 --> 00:07:11,300
position there. 
But that was one where I just, I

116
00:07:11,300 --> 00:07:14,780
felt like I needed to check my 
priors and make sure they're 

117
00:07:14,780 --> 00:07:17,990
still being rational. 
They're pretty sure it's you 

118
00:07:17,990 --> 00:07:21,070
know we're seeing signal not 
just noise here like it's he's 

119
00:07:21,070 --> 00:07:22,230
just. 
Yeah, Week 5. 

120
00:07:23,070 --> 00:07:28,790
We've got a 5 game sample in 
here and seems like he's good. 

121
00:07:29,470 --> 00:07:34,310
Yeah, yeah. 
One I I guess one thing that 

122
00:07:34,310 --> 00:07:40,430
that that I'm gonna check it now
that I guess people would say 

123
00:07:40,430 --> 00:07:45,990
that is in favor of sure that is
not for and what's his name 

124
00:07:45,990 --> 00:07:48,860
Purdy. 
It's kind of the pass rate, so 

125
00:07:49,540 --> 00:07:53,980
just checking the the situation 
neutral pass rate from Miami has

126
00:07:53,980 --> 00:08:01,140
been 62% and then for San 
Francisco it's been 53%. 

127
00:08:01,660 --> 00:08:08,660
So I guess that that that's one 
difference where you would you 

128
00:08:08,660 --> 00:08:11,820
would I think given a choice you
definitely and and you said this

129
00:08:11,860 --> 00:08:15,280
you definitely prefer Chua. 
And because you know they're 

130
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:22,200
gonna pass more often and but 
like we said, he purdy's playing

131
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,280
pretty efficiently. 
He's scoring touchdowns. 

132
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:29,280
He's getting yardage, strong 
yardage for attempt and so 

133
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:34,320
definitely his prior cost, you 
were very interested. 

134
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,080
Yeah. 
And and we mentioned this 

135
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,159
earlier I can't remember what 
week it was that we discussed 

136
00:08:41,159 --> 00:08:44,520
this but Purdy's volume is is 
just going to be low. 

137
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,120
You know that's that's the way 
the offense is designed. 

138
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,760
They're not going to have him 
air it out you know 40 plus 

139
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,160
times in a week if they can all 
avoid it and they're they're a 

140
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,680
good team they're going to be 
able to avoid having to do that.

141
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,640
So you're that's his ceilings 
kind of capped in that regard. 

142
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,680
It's not to say that ceiling 
games are inaccessible to him. 

143
00:09:04,680 --> 00:09:07,440
Clearly they are on the back of 
touchdown efficiency. 

144
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,410
It's it's kind of like, well, 
yeah, I mean diet. 

145
00:09:11,690 --> 00:09:13,210
There's no need to make other 
comparisons. 

146
00:09:13,210 --> 00:09:15,970
Diet too is a totally fine and 
apt comparison. 

147
00:09:15,970 --> 00:09:19,770
There for sure. 
The other the other ones that we

148
00:09:19,770 --> 00:09:23,810
saw, the Jordan love. 
I'm wondering if we get like a 

149
00:09:23,810 --> 00:09:26,490
little bit of a Jordan Love 
metronome effect because there's

150
00:09:26,490 --> 00:09:29,930
no way I mean he was so 
efficient the first couple weeks

151
00:09:29,930 --> 00:09:31,930
right. 
We all we saw that and said he's

152
00:09:31,930 --> 00:09:35,730
gonna regress but now he's just 
like screaming back the other 

153
00:09:35,730 --> 00:09:37,770
way. 
And I I've got to feel like 

154
00:09:38,460 --> 00:09:42,940
maybe he comes back and settles 
somewhere in between where where

155
00:09:42,940 --> 00:09:45,820
he is right now on the chart and
where he was to start the 

156
00:09:45,820 --> 00:09:48,820
season. 
I'm thinking that, you know, 

157
00:09:48,820 --> 00:09:51,980
maybe with Christian Watson 
getting to be fully healthy and 

158
00:09:51,980 --> 00:09:54,780
acclimated to the offense and 
you know, you get Aaron Jones 

159
00:09:54,780 --> 00:09:56,820
back, maybe the office will look
a little more efficient. 

160
00:09:58,380 --> 00:10:01,780
But yeah, I'm wondering if we 
see a Jordan Love metronome 

161
00:10:01,780 --> 00:10:04,260
effect there. 
Was there anyone else on the 

162
00:10:04,260 --> 00:10:07,180
chart that you saw that you had 
a a big take away on for this 

163
00:10:07,180 --> 00:10:12,020
week? 
And just that I I guess do want 

164
00:10:12,020 --> 00:10:16,300
to be able to use and the the 
resurrection Adp's while we have

165
00:10:16,300 --> 00:10:21,220
them and because I believe the 
contest is is closing soon and 

166
00:10:21,220 --> 00:10:27,500
so rock pretty goes around pick 
80 and obviously huge closing 

167
00:10:27,500 --> 00:10:33,180
line value there and but I, I, 
I'm I'm now thinking let's say 

168
00:10:33,420 --> 00:10:37,150
for example Joe Burrow. 
Actually is a good example where

169
00:10:37,150 --> 00:10:41,710
he's he's now picked 72 and we 
see him right here around at the

170
00:10:41,710 --> 00:10:47,110
five at Justin Jarrett for 
attempt and low pretty low 

171
00:10:47,110 --> 00:10:52,790
touchdown rate that that. 
I think that's a comparison that

172
00:10:52,870 --> 00:10:55,750
that's pretty interesting where 
you have like 1 who's been 

173
00:10:55,750 --> 00:11:00,830
really efficient and then 
another who I think it's pretty 

174
00:11:00,830 --> 00:11:02,630
objectively more talented 
overall. 

175
00:11:02,670 --> 00:11:07,680
Joe Burrow has been. 
Bad and and and mostly because 

176
00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:11,240
of the injury probably. 
I think that's like an 

177
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,360
interesting like if I'm like 
trying to find ways how do I 

178
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,760
play quarterback in in 
resurrection and how do I react 

179
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:24,280
to the market and arrest. 
I think I at the same price even

180
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,400
rest of the season I prefer Joe 
Burrow. 

181
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:32,180
Yeah 100% agree and it's it's 
because the ceiling with Burrow 

182
00:11:32,180 --> 00:11:34,980
is not capped in the way that 
it's capped with Purdy right. 

183
00:11:34,980 --> 00:11:40,260
Like your your very very very 
best Purdy game is 6 touchdowns 

184
00:11:40,300 --> 00:11:42,540
right. 
It's like 300 yards 6 touchdowns

185
00:11:42,780 --> 00:11:46,020
that that'd be like you're 
you're living in a dream Holy 

186
00:11:46,020 --> 00:11:49,740
shit brought Purdy yeah just 
went nuclear right and and while

187
00:11:49,740 --> 00:11:54,100
like sure that's a that's a 
pretty enormous ceiling like Joe

188
00:11:54,100 --> 00:11:58,100
Burrow has those like I just 
threw for 500 yards LOL games in

189
00:11:58,100 --> 00:12:01,400
his in Israel like in the same 
way that a six touchdown game 

190
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,360
for Purdy is really unlikely but
it's in the range like that 500 

191
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,280
yard game for borough is in the 
range and so it's just you're 

192
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,360
not capping your ceiling quite 
as much with borough. 

193
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,200
I think that is definitely the 
way I would want to play it as 

194
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,360
well. 
Not to say that the market is 

195
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,640
doing a bad job of pricing Purdy
is I kind of like let that ADP 

196
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,320
marinate in my head a little 
bit. 

197
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,360
It's like yeah that's probably, 
that's probably right. 

198
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:28,490
You know here's a here's an 
interesting 1. 

199
00:12:28,930 --> 00:12:31,730
Brock Purdy or Trevor Lawrence 
rest of season. 

200
00:12:31,730 --> 00:12:33,970
And I I haven't looked at the 
Resurrection Adps. 

201
00:12:33,970 --> 00:12:36,610
I've kind of sat that tournament
out after my first few drafts. 

202
00:12:36,610 --> 00:12:39,570
It just wasn't terribly 
appealing to me, given the 

203
00:12:39,570 --> 00:12:41,890
prize. 
Pool right? 

204
00:12:41,930 --> 00:12:43,410
Makes sense. 
Makes sense. 

205
00:12:43,690 --> 00:12:47,930
I I just, I I like to use it as 
a as a what you call it as a 

206
00:12:47,970 --> 00:12:49,450
OHH. 
I think it's such a good metric.

207
00:12:49,610 --> 00:12:51,650
It's such a good tumor to 
compare. 

208
00:12:51,650 --> 00:12:53,250
Yeah. 
Market sentiment on players, 

209
00:12:53,250 --> 00:12:54,490
right? 
But yeah, you wanna be, you 

210
00:12:54,490 --> 00:12:56,760
wanna be. 
I guess transparent. 

211
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:02,200
I've done a couple myself but 
have not been diving in super 

212
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:08,360
hard but like to use it as a 
tool and rock Purdy or Trevor 

213
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:20,000
Lawrence and I mean given the 
last couple weeks I think. 

214
00:13:20,620 --> 00:13:25,660
I'm slightly in favor of maybe 
this is this is a bit contrary. 

215
00:13:25,660 --> 00:13:32,180
I'm slightly in favor of Trevor 
Lawrence and I just think again 

216
00:13:32,180 --> 00:13:34,780
you're talking about somebody 
who's much, much better like 

217
00:13:35,540 --> 00:13:40,900
overall more talented the the, 
the talent around pretty is 

218
00:13:40,900 --> 00:13:45,460
clearly Miles better than Trevor
Lawrence like you. 

219
00:13:46,470 --> 00:13:50,270
Probably got pretty average, 
talented possibly possibly below

220
00:13:50,270 --> 00:13:56,190
talent average home around them.
Trevor Lawrence and he's been 

221
00:13:56,190 --> 00:13:59,790
making, I think a lot of his 
like sort of like advanced sort 

222
00:13:59,790 --> 00:14:03,150
of charted stats have been 
really, really good. 

223
00:14:03,470 --> 00:14:08,950
But the fantasy output has not 
been there, and so I almost want

224
00:14:08,950 --> 00:14:13,230
to say that's another one where 
despite a pretty poor start. 

225
00:14:14,060 --> 00:14:17,700
I I do want I do want to be in 
on like a Trevor Lawrence 

226
00:14:17,700 --> 00:14:23,100
rebounds and so I I'm probably 
slightly prefer like in a 

227
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:28,380
complete vacuum and but the 
market is actually has pretty 

228
00:14:28,380 --> 00:14:34,140
ahead of them so Trevor Lawrence
has picked 85 now and so that's 

229
00:14:34,140 --> 00:14:37,500
another one where I'm like oh 
you know like I I I like being 

230
00:14:37,500 --> 00:14:40,980
contrarian there but if someone 
was to make me be like super 

231
00:14:40,980 --> 00:14:43,260
super confident and and like I 
have to spend like. 

232
00:14:43,890 --> 00:14:47,130
And to draft Trevor Lawrence 
like around the half the two 

233
00:14:47,130 --> 00:14:51,930
rounds before Purdy, I I'm like 
definitely getting very angsty 

234
00:14:51,930 --> 00:14:55,890
not not liking that. 
So I I I I'm not trying to say 

235
00:14:55,890 --> 00:14:59,610
that the the yeah the ADP on 
Purdy is is inefficient. 

236
00:14:59,610 --> 00:15:03,570
There, for example, he goes 
around Kirk Cousins, which, you 

237
00:15:03,570 --> 00:15:05,250
know, that seems fair. 
Yeah. 

238
00:15:06,570 --> 00:15:09,490
No, yeah, that's that. 
That feels about right to me. 

239
00:15:09,850 --> 00:15:13,910
It's kind of just the way that I
would be playing that most 

240
00:15:13,910 --> 00:15:16,950
likely is like that's that's 
kind of a range of quarterbacks 

241
00:15:16,950 --> 00:15:20,790
where I think if anything like 
Cousins and Lawrence might be a 

242
00:15:20,790 --> 00:15:23,990
tiny tiny bit underpriced with 
the way that the quarterback, 

243
00:15:24,230 --> 00:15:27,590
just with the way the 
quarterback market has behaved 

244
00:15:27,590 --> 00:15:29,910
this season where every 
everyone's kind of going a 

245
00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:34,470
little bit too expensive. 
But in in right direction drafts

246
00:15:34,470 --> 00:15:37,030
where we have, there's so much 
less ambiguity. 

247
00:15:37,030 --> 00:15:39,990
So, like, you just get these 
much more like, crystallized 

248
00:15:39,990 --> 00:15:42,340
tiers of, like, here's useful 
players. 

249
00:15:42,340 --> 00:15:45,820
And after that it's just, you 
know, 50 miles of shit. 

250
00:15:46,220 --> 00:15:49,540
Like, yeah, so then I'm like, 
well, at that range in the 

251
00:15:49,540 --> 00:15:53,020
draft, it's probably fine to 
take these quarterbacks, even 

252
00:15:53,020 --> 00:15:55,420
though, like, technically, I 
feel like the price might be a 

253
00:15:55,420 --> 00:15:57,860
little high relative to, like, 
what a perfectly efficient 

254
00:15:57,860 --> 00:16:00,100
market would be for where 
quarterbacks go with respect to 

255
00:16:00,100 --> 00:16:03,460
all the skill position players. 
But like, yeah, I I would. 

256
00:16:03,820 --> 00:16:07,020
I'd be happy to open up stacks 
for all those guys in that range

257
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:10,060
and just take whoever falls to 
me and and kind of play it that 

258
00:16:10,060 --> 00:16:14,470
way. 
But I think, honestly, there 

259
00:16:14,470 --> 00:16:19,310
weren't a ton of of crazy things
on the quarterback chart that I 

260
00:16:19,310 --> 00:16:23,350
saw other than those ones that I
I wanted to point out, I guess. 

261
00:16:23,430 --> 00:16:26,870
The other one that's interesting
to me is that is seeing Russell 

262
00:16:26,870 --> 00:16:31,350
Wilson and like pretty firmly in
the good section of the chart 

263
00:16:32,150 --> 00:16:36,310
and I know you I I I pointed out
whereas this is this is a 

264
00:16:36,910 --> 00:16:41,390
Russell Wilson. 
Positivism, positivism or biased

265
00:16:41,390 --> 00:16:45,350
chart where it doesn't it 
doesn't really punish him for 

266
00:16:45,350 --> 00:16:48,550
taking sacks from holding the 
ball too long and and like being

267
00:16:48,550 --> 00:16:51,710
able to hold the ball longer is 
going to push up your adjusted 

268
00:16:51,710 --> 00:16:54,910
yards for attempt. 
But it does seem, it does seem 

269
00:16:54,910 --> 00:16:58,550
pretty interesting to me that 
he's been clearly pretty 

270
00:16:58,550 --> 00:17:02,350
productive and they haven't been
winning. 

271
00:17:02,390 --> 00:17:07,310
So I'm sure there is frustration
in that team and but. 

272
00:17:07,980 --> 00:17:12,099
It's sort of like this. 
Like if I told you that this was

273
00:17:12,460 --> 00:17:16,020
a 2015 chart and showed you 
where Russell Wilson was, you'd 

274
00:17:16,020 --> 00:17:18,980
be like, oh, OK, yeah, no, that,
that makes sense. 

275
00:17:18,980 --> 00:17:23,859
And then I'd probably ask you, 
who is to a Tagoviloa, right we 

276
00:17:23,859 --> 00:17:28,580
are in 2015. 
But yeah, no, I I think with 

277
00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:31,620
Wilson, he's definitely, he's 
just gonna be one of those guys 

278
00:17:31,620 --> 00:17:34,340
that's interesting for fantasy. 
He's a little hard for DFS 

279
00:17:34,340 --> 00:17:38,700
because the stacking options are
really not ideal with the way 

280
00:17:38,700 --> 00:17:41,100
that no they're using their 
weapons to offense. 

281
00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:44,060
Although I I believe I saw did 
was it Brandon Powell that got 

282
00:17:44,060 --> 00:17:48,980
cut there one some random or was
it Lil Jordan some random dust 

283
00:17:48,980 --> 00:17:50,740
ball that they okay hang out got
cut. 

284
00:17:51,820 --> 00:17:54,660
So I'm Brandon and it was 
Brandon Johnson I believe. 

285
00:17:54,660 --> 00:17:56,580
Yeah that that sounds right. 
Yeah. 

286
00:17:56,580 --> 00:18:02,900
Some household name you know so 
right I I think that it might be

287
00:18:02,900 --> 00:18:06,060
Ohh Humphrey. 
Lil Jordan, Humphrey was who it 

288
00:18:06,060 --> 00:18:08,680
was. 
So I think that might be signal 

289
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,960
that maybe we're going to start 
to see a little bit more Mims. 

290
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,160
Dulcich also looks like he's 
coming off IR. 

291
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,280
You actually provided some 
really good Dulcich related 

292
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:25,320
alpha in the offseason, Visavis 
the Troutman insider information

293
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,880
as well. 
So I'm, I guess we can save that

294
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,200
for the tight end chart. 
But I'm kind of curious to see 

295
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:36,170
how this offense starts to shape
up and if we actually get some 

296
00:18:36,210 --> 00:18:39,570
potential usable stacking 
options with Russell Wilson or 

297
00:18:39,570 --> 00:18:42,570
if it's just like, yeah, he 
occasionally produces for 

298
00:18:42,570 --> 00:18:45,290
fantasy, but it's really hard to
pick the right weapon and and 

299
00:18:45,290 --> 00:18:47,050
sometimes there just isn't a 
right weapon. 

300
00:18:47,370 --> 00:18:50,090
A lot of it, just that offense 
flows through the backs. 

301
00:18:50,690 --> 00:18:53,130
So it's a it's an interesting 
one for sure. 

302
00:18:54,130 --> 00:18:57,290
Yeah, I I agree. 
I agree for sure. 

303
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,960
So I think that's probably a 
good jumping off point to finish

304
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:10,320
up with the quarterbacks and I'm
going to zoom us out here so we 

305
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:14,080
can see all the running backs. 
So here, this is our first 

306
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,920
running back chart and honestly,
it's my favorite chart that we 

307
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,040
do. 
This is. 

308
00:19:20,590 --> 00:19:25,230
It it basically breaks down each
of the plays that a running back

309
00:19:25,230 --> 00:19:29,350
is on the field for as a 
percentage of their teams 

310
00:19:29,390 --> 00:19:32,510
overall. 
And so you have rush attempts 

311
00:19:32,550 --> 00:19:36,350
and sort of like a lot of 
running backs, bread and butter,

312
00:19:36,710 --> 00:19:40,950
you have their, their roots and 
you have pass blocking and and 

313
00:19:40,950 --> 00:19:44,310
pass blocking. 
It's not fantasy helpful, but it

314
00:19:44,310 --> 00:19:48,470
is good to know who's trusted to
pass block and then run blocking

315
00:19:48,470 --> 00:19:51,930
which is like. 
Yeah, you're you're you're on 

316
00:19:51,930 --> 00:19:53,730
the field, but you're not at 
you're not. 

317
00:19:53,730 --> 00:19:57,450
There's no chance that you're 
This does not translate to 

318
00:19:57,450 --> 00:19:59,690
anything fantasy wise, but good.
Good to see. 

319
00:20:00,970 --> 00:20:03,290
Yeah, one Ohh, go ahead, go 
ahead. 

320
00:20:04,090 --> 00:20:07,570
I I was gonna say one note for 
for this chart and for the tight

321
00:20:07,570 --> 00:20:12,290
end charts coming up for these. 
We do like a rolling four weeks 

322
00:20:12,370 --> 00:20:15,930
of data just because the usage 
it's it's important to be able 

323
00:20:15,930 --> 00:20:19,080
to see how the trends evolve 
over the season where for like 

324
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,880
quarterbacks and wide receivers 
we really want to get those 

325
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,840
larger samples to kind of like 
get rid of some of the noise and

326
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,320
the small sample stuff. 
But for the running backs and 

327
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,320
tight ends we do want to be 
current and staying on top of 

328
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:34,320
emerging trends And so that's 
for example why you see you know

329
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,480
sake 1 Barkley all the way at 
the top of the chart now well 

330
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,200
we're missing we took at week 
one yeah we're missing week one 

331
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,160
and then sake one also missed 
some weeks with injuries. 

332
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,320
So we've got a really small 
sample, so we're just looking at

333
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,080
a super small sample for sake 
one. 

334
00:20:48,570 --> 00:20:51,090
But for everyone else who's been
playing games, we're getting a 

335
00:20:51,090 --> 00:20:55,730
more recent view on their usage 
trends, so I think that's a 

336
00:20:56,010 --> 00:20:59,610
useful feature of this chart. 
Yeah, yeah. 

337
00:20:59,730 --> 00:21:04,130
And that that's a good call out 
and great explanation. 

338
00:21:04,610 --> 00:21:09,730
So I mean it just strikes me 
answered away, the top of this 

339
00:21:09,730 --> 00:21:14,010
chart is just not what we 
expected at the start of the 

340
00:21:14,010 --> 00:21:17,370
year like OK, you have say Quan 
then Kyron Williams. 

341
00:21:17,710 --> 00:21:23,270
We've talked about that Rashad 
White, Joe Mixon, Zach Moss, and

342
00:21:23,630 --> 00:21:26,310
that's just like a really 
surprising yeah, what is it? 

343
00:21:26,310 --> 00:21:33,230
Top four, top five, yeah, 
there's a there's a lot of lot 

344
00:21:33,230 --> 00:21:36,310
of guys up at the top of the 
chart where we definitely were 

345
00:21:36,310 --> 00:21:39,270
not drafting them that way 
during the offseason. 

346
00:21:40,070 --> 00:21:44,550
One of the ones to me that I I 
think that was really 

347
00:21:44,550 --> 00:21:48,470
interesting to me is we finally 
we saw Josh Jacobs get there a 

348
00:21:48,470 --> 00:21:51,030
little bit this week. 
Finally he found his way into 

349
00:21:51,030 --> 00:21:53,950
the end zone. 
He got a lot of targets in that 

350
00:21:53,950 --> 00:21:57,310
game and so his usage translated
a little bit more into fantasy 

351
00:21:57,310 --> 00:21:59,590
points. 
He had not, you know, he'd had 

352
00:21:59,590 --> 00:22:02,510
this elite usage and we'll see 
it when we get to the next 

353
00:22:02,510 --> 00:22:04,630
running back charts that they're
expected fantasy points. 

354
00:22:04,630 --> 00:22:07,990
He'd always showed, you know, 
really good, expected fantasy 

355
00:22:07,990 --> 00:22:10,750
points, but was being really 
inefficient and not actually 

356
00:22:10,750 --> 00:22:14,480
converting on them. 
This week we saw him be able to 

357
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,960
get there a little bit. 
It'll improve his expected 

358
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,320
fantasy points efficiency. 
Just getting the touchdowns 

359
00:22:22,120 --> 00:22:25,800
definitely helps there. 
But we saw Josh Jacobs, you 

360
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,320
know, show why. 
Hey, you paid at you know, 

361
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:32,280
elevated cost for Jacobs cuz 
there's so much work there that 

362
00:22:32,360 --> 00:22:36,560
in general you've just got such 
a high floor for most weeks. 

363
00:22:37,490 --> 00:22:40,490
The other guy that's right in. 
That yeah he's got like 21 

364
00:22:40,490 --> 00:22:43,170
expected points for game like 
yeah he's he's literally got the

365
00:22:43,170 --> 00:22:47,730
double double profile where 10 
expected Russian points and 11 

366
00:22:47,730 --> 00:22:53,330
expected receiving points. 
So pretty pretty like not doing,

367
00:22:53,330 --> 00:22:58,490
not doing Jack with it a lot of 
weeks, but like very like really

368
00:22:58,490 --> 00:23:01,370
like really strong role, really 
strong role. 

369
00:23:01,830 --> 00:23:06,870
I was paying particularly close 
attention to Josh Jacobs in the 

370
00:23:07,390 --> 00:23:10,590
really the second-half and 
fourth quarter of that game. 

371
00:23:11,070 --> 00:23:15,190
Cuz on that Showdown slate, I 
had a very live lineup and I 

372
00:23:15,190 --> 00:23:19,670
needed Josh Jacobs and Musgrave 
to get me there. 

373
00:23:20,370 --> 00:23:25,210
And so I see Jacobs racking up 
all of these just little dink 

374
00:23:25,210 --> 00:23:27,090
and dunk PPR points. 
Like. 

375
00:23:27,090 --> 00:23:30,610
All right, two yards, that's 
whatever, That's 1.2 maybe let's

376
00:23:30,610 --> 00:23:33,170
keep it going. 
And he just gets all these 

377
00:23:33,170 --> 00:23:37,170
little worthless targets like. 
But hey, they're worthwhile for 

378
00:23:37,170 --> 00:23:38,290
fantasy. 
So good. 

379
00:23:38,410 --> 00:23:41,610
Good for Jacobs. 
Yeah, for sure. 

380
00:23:41,690 --> 00:23:44,710
For sure, but the other guy then
at trap? 

381
00:23:44,990 --> 00:23:45,990
Ohh, you go ahead. 
You go ahead. 

382
00:23:45,990 --> 00:23:47,870
Ohh, we were we were gonna talk 
about the same guy. 

383
00:23:47,870 --> 00:23:49,830
I was gonna bring up ETN as 
well. 

384
00:23:50,590 --> 00:23:54,190
Ohh how did I didn't even say 
ETN we we just had a meeting of 

385
00:23:54,190 --> 00:23:58,710
minds yes I I mean great minds 
think alike so but no he ETN 

386
00:23:58,710 --> 00:24:02,510
looks elite he he looks like you
know at the start of I I wanna 

387
00:24:02,510 --> 00:24:06,990
say at the very very start of 
draft season ETN was in like I 

388
00:24:07,030 --> 00:24:10,350
wanna say he was in the third 
round like kinda is that am I 

389
00:24:10,350 --> 00:24:14,350
remembering this right He was 
kind of like in the the late 20s

390
00:24:14,630 --> 00:24:18,350
ADP wise. 
And then someone, someone came 

391
00:24:18,350 --> 00:24:21,950
out and and put out a smear 
campaign on ETN and he fell 

392
00:24:22,190 --> 00:24:27,390
precipitously, you know into the
fourth round and man the price. 

393
00:24:27,390 --> 00:24:33,790
The market was right, right away
And I dude, it's it's this 

394
00:24:33,790 --> 00:24:36,270
stupid name effect. 
Tank Bigsby. 

395
00:24:36,270 --> 00:24:40,350
Like, sure Tank Dell has has 
been productive, but like if you

396
00:24:40,350 --> 00:24:44,430
get a guy with A6 sounding name 
Sky Moore, Tank Bigsby, like the

397
00:24:44,430 --> 00:24:49,830
right is just going to attribute
the cool name price boost on it.

398
00:24:50,230 --> 00:24:55,110
And by you know by effect that 
dragged ETN down a little bit 

399
00:24:55,110 --> 00:24:57,990
because everyone was so sure 
Tank Bigsby was gonna be legit. 

400
00:24:58,470 --> 00:25:00,270
And yeah, Tank Bigsby has been 
annoying. 

401
00:25:00,430 --> 00:25:02,930
It tanks. 
He's more so just been a thorn 

402
00:25:02,930 --> 00:25:05,850
in ETN side. 
He's what's preventing ETN from 

403
00:25:05,850 --> 00:25:11,290
being like the RB one. 
If ETN got more of those Green 

404
00:25:11,290 --> 00:25:15,370
Zone touches that Bigsby has 
siphoned off and he ran good and

405
00:25:15,370 --> 00:25:18,930
converted them like you could, 
there's a there's an outcome 

406
00:25:19,170 --> 00:25:22,170
where ETN has five more 
touchdowns this season And we're

407
00:25:22,170 --> 00:25:25,900
talking about you know is who do
you, who do you like rest of 

408
00:25:25,900 --> 00:25:28,660
season Travis Etn or Christian 
McCaffrey. 

409
00:25:28,700 --> 00:25:31,500
You know like that's right. 
Could have happened. 

410
00:25:31,820 --> 00:25:35,940
So I I definitely think Etn's 
really exciting going forward 

411
00:25:36,500 --> 00:25:38,340
just like you were saying about 
Trevor Lawrence. 

412
00:25:38,340 --> 00:25:42,380
Like if we if we just think 
about like the best outcomes for

413
00:25:42,380 --> 00:25:45,500
this offense it's really 
exciting for for really all of 

414
00:25:45,500 --> 00:25:47,140
these pieces. 
I just, I just think this is an 

415
00:25:47,140 --> 00:25:50,460
offense that you wanna have 
pieces of. 

416
00:25:50,980 --> 00:25:53,700
So very, very excited about ETN 
going forward. 

417
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,040
Yeah yeah I agree. 
Agree. 

418
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,880
You said pretty much everything 
that I was going to say and took

419
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,280
it right at right right out of 
my mouth. 

420
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:10,040
And and then interesting as well
that Bijan is like right up here

421
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,960
where if you look at the rolling
four games he he he's in the bow

422
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:20,520
cow part of the chart and I know
week one toddler Algier and he 

423
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,720
had a he had a pretty good 
share. 

424
00:26:23,190 --> 00:26:26,830
But you take that out and it 
looks like it's been all bijon. 

425
00:26:28,590 --> 00:26:34,630
Yeah, I know we had the carry 
thing last week where they sort 

426
00:26:34,630 --> 00:26:41,350
of split the 5050, but I do 
prefer to look at the Rolling 4,

427
00:26:41,350 --> 00:26:43,870
so you don't hone in on single 
games too much. 

428
00:26:44,390 --> 00:26:48,130
Yeah, absolutely. 
And Bijon, I mean, it's gonna 

429
00:26:48,130 --> 00:26:50,530
sound weird to say that he's a 
buy low candidate because it 

430
00:26:50,530 --> 00:26:54,170
feels like every week, even if 
he has like slightly less 

431
00:26:54,170 --> 00:26:56,530
fantasy production than you'd 
want, like he's still putting 

432
00:26:56,530 --> 00:26:59,530
out some flashy play those. 
Is it? 

433
00:26:59,610 --> 00:27:02,090
Is it the official Falcons 
Twitter account that keeps 

434
00:27:02,170 --> 00:27:04,650
showing these really cool camera
angles of Bijon? 

435
00:27:04,650 --> 00:27:07,370
Just yeah, looking like a baller
man. 

436
00:27:07,370 --> 00:27:09,730
Oh my gosh, this guy's so fun to
watch. 

437
00:27:09,730 --> 00:27:13,490
But like the little catches the 
ball behind the back kind of 

438
00:27:13,490 --> 00:27:17,980
crossover into the end zone he's
he's nice he's really fun to 

439
00:27:17,980 --> 00:27:21,060
watch man. 
But I would I mean if you can if

440
00:27:21,060 --> 00:27:23,860
you're if you're dealing with 
someone who is not watching the 

441
00:27:23,860 --> 00:27:27,060
games. 
I would be interested in buying 

442
00:27:27,060 --> 00:27:30,140
low on Bijon. 
Just cuz I think that with how 

443
00:27:30,140 --> 00:27:34,100
talented he is and like this 
team wants to establish it. 

444
00:27:34,100 --> 00:27:36,740
They wanna do things through the
running backs too in the passing

445
00:27:36,740 --> 00:27:41,280
game and just think he's so 
talented that he's going to 

446
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,640
force Arthur Smith to give him 
more work. 

447
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,200
And I mean he's already he's 
already getting it. 

448
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,160
But I just, I think that if you 
start getting some good 

449
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,320
efficiency games from Bijan and 
you know they they're playing 

450
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,160
from ahead and they just get to 
establish it like they want to, 

451
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,040
you could have some crazy 
ceiling games from that guy. 

452
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,520
So it's, I mean you can't even 
really buy him low. 

453
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,040
He's been fined. 
I guess it's a buy medium, you 

454
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:06,080
know. 
Right. 

455
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:06,800
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

456
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,160
Well, one of the things that 
people talk about buy low. 

457
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,200
But there's also the concept of 
buying high, where you have an 

458
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,240
ascending player, and then if 
you're buying at a price where 

459
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,360
he's had a he's had a good game 
and you're buying off of that 

460
00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:25,240
good game. 
People actually, they adjust, 

461
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:30,940
sometimes, adjust too slowly. 
So like just for example Bijon 

462
00:28:30,940 --> 00:28:37,540
his his rest his resurrection 
draft at ADP is pick seven which

463
00:28:37,540 --> 00:28:42,220
is like not that different to 
his his preseason and then you 

464
00:28:42,220 --> 00:28:49,060
compare that to the CMC who's 
just clearing away the 101 and 

465
00:28:49,420 --> 00:28:53,260
like you're you're sort of 
buying high on Bijon but if the 

466
00:28:53,260 --> 00:28:57,870
trend or or like if if he like. 
Achieves the type of season that

467
00:28:57,870 --> 00:29:04,070
he could he could like just 
totally like deliver one-on-one 

468
00:29:04,070 --> 00:29:08,390
value just like so easily. 
So I I I think I think it it it 

469
00:29:08,390 --> 00:29:12,510
sort of is like a buy high but 
it's a it's a good it's a very 

470
00:29:12,510 --> 00:29:15,830
good buy high yeah 100%. 
And I I was just having this 

471
00:29:15,830 --> 00:29:19,670
conversation with someone that 
there's a lot of fantasy players

472
00:29:19,710 --> 00:29:23,150
out there and this is more with 
we're talking about season long 

473
00:29:23,190 --> 00:29:26,480
and trading dynasty. 
I guess sometimes people are 

474
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:31,840
scared to pay that premium price
that the truly elite fantasy 

475
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:36,440
assets deserve. 
And so you just need to be 

476
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,480
willing. 
I mean, and and so much of 

477
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,680
fantasy football comes down to, 
hey, there's like 5 dudes. 

478
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,960
There's like literally 5 total 
guys who are the true, true 

479
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:51,260
difference makers in this game. 
And you just need to be willing 

480
00:29:51,260 --> 00:29:54,620
to pay up for guys like that. 
And if your opponents are not 

481
00:29:54,620 --> 00:29:57,820
willing to break the bank for it
and you can outfit them in a 

482
00:29:57,820 --> 00:30:01,260
trade or, you know, if you're in
auction format, you just you're 

483
00:30:01,260 --> 00:30:04,300
just willing to. 
Hey, my, my auction rankings say

484
00:30:04,300 --> 00:30:06,740
that this guy's only worth 
$62.00. 

485
00:30:06,740 --> 00:30:08,540
Oh gosh, I do. 
I want to go 6. 

486
00:30:08,900 --> 00:30:11,020
Dude, it doesn't matter. 
Just go to go to 70. 

487
00:30:11,100 --> 00:30:12,020
You know? 
Like what? 

488
00:30:12,020 --> 00:30:14,820
What were you really gonna do 
with that last $7.00? 

489
00:30:14,820 --> 00:30:16,740
Like, just get a couple $1.00 
Flyers. 

490
00:30:16,740 --> 00:30:19,460
The the difference between your 
$7.00 player and your $1.00 

491
00:30:19,460 --> 00:30:22,580
player, it's like nothing 
compared to the the difference 

492
00:30:22,580 --> 00:30:27,060
in actually getting a Bijan 
Robinson versus settling for you

493
00:30:27,060 --> 00:30:30,140
know the the running back. 
That's just a sake 1 Barkley, 

494
00:30:30,140 --> 00:30:31,740
right? 
Like, ah, I won't, I won't take 

495
00:30:31,740 --> 00:30:33,420
Bijan. 
I'll settle for sake one. 

496
00:30:33,420 --> 00:30:36,540
He'll only be $45.00. 
Like, well, congratulations, I 

497
00:30:36,540 --> 00:30:39,100
really hope that you're enjoying
6th place this season. 

498
00:30:39,180 --> 00:30:42,300
You know, like, right, You need 
the elite guys to win and so 

499
00:30:42,580 --> 00:30:44,940
it's just being willing to. 
When you've identified a guy 

500
00:30:44,940 --> 00:30:47,380
like that, just go with it. 
Like you pay. 

501
00:30:47,580 --> 00:30:53,970
Pay all the way up, man. 
Is I think is Breeze Hall who's 

502
00:30:54,370 --> 00:31:07,050
down here at the bottom and just
40% of his if you well, I guess 

503
00:31:07,330 --> 00:31:11,010
you know I'm just, I'm just 
looking at Week 5. 

504
00:31:11,090 --> 00:31:14,730
So, Breeze Hall, we have them 
here at 40%. 

505
00:31:14,730 --> 00:31:18,950
Kind of useful Snap. 
If you use rush attempts and 

506
00:31:19,950 --> 00:31:24,870
roots, whereas I guess week 5 
even though he had the really 

507
00:31:24,870 --> 00:31:30,230
strong expected points game, so 
18 1/2 expected points, it was 

508
00:31:30,350 --> 00:31:36,310
only on the field for half the 
snaps and they used them to 

509
00:31:36,310 --> 00:31:40,510
block 0 and pass blocks and run 
blocks so. 

510
00:31:40,910 --> 00:31:43,870
Pretty it's It kind of seems 
like every time Pre Tall is on 

511
00:31:43,870 --> 00:31:46,830
the field, he's getting the ball
almost 100%. 

512
00:31:48,270 --> 00:31:50,550
That, that that one is 
interesting for me where I 

513
00:31:50,550 --> 00:31:56,310
thought the trend was gonna be 
for him to like really rise but 

514
00:31:56,910 --> 00:32:01,070
it sounds like it almost like he
could he could live down in in 

515
00:32:01,070 --> 00:32:04,630
in in the lower part of the 
chart just from. 

516
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,880
Such a high like concentration 
of usage when he's on the field.

517
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:13,440
But definitely as as we approach
playoff on would 100% expect him

518
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,560
to be to be in the top half of 
this chart. 

519
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,280
Yeah, I think that's a really 
good assessment. 

520
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:25,360
What I would say is Michael 
Carter is like, no no disrespect

521
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,920
to Michael Carter the man or his
family that he's like the 

522
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:32,160
jaggiest Jag of all Jags. 
Like you know he's a cardboard 

523
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:36,560
cut out, you know, and just 
whoever could be doing the job 

524
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,960
that Michael Carter is doing 
except for Dalvin Cook. 

525
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,000
Dalvin Cook is too washed to do 
that job. 

526
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:48,160
So I think that breeze has a ton
of runway to take more of those 

527
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,200
snaps. 
But it's really hard. 

528
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,520
Like dude, the guy had 25 
carries. 

529
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,800
Like it's really hard to to want
to. 

530
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,200
I mean you're running back who's
fresh off an ACL injury. 

531
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,130
Like do you really want to put 
more than 25 carries a game on 

532
00:33:03,130 --> 00:33:05,730
it? 
I mean it was abundantly clear 

533
00:33:05,770 --> 00:33:09,530
and I feel like Robert solid, 
definitely a sharp enough coach 

534
00:33:09,530 --> 00:33:12,010
to where he's like, dude, if 
we're going to win this game, 

535
00:33:12,330 --> 00:33:15,410
it's on the back of Breese and 
we need to put the ball in his 

536
00:33:15,410 --> 00:33:19,770
belly and let him do his thing. 
And there's there's a reason why

537
00:33:20,370 --> 00:33:25,090
when they came out you know of 
the of halftime, the the thing 

538
00:33:25,090 --> 00:33:28,100
that they decided to do was 
let's let Brees try and break 

539
00:33:28,100 --> 00:33:30,740
this game open for us. 
And he did, you know, like 

540
00:33:30,940 --> 00:33:35,820
that's that's their #1A plus 
play is give the ball to Brees 

541
00:33:35,820 --> 00:33:39,860
Hall. 
So what we did see in the usage 

542
00:33:39,900 --> 00:33:42,860
was that Michael Carter did get 
a lot of the passing work. 

543
00:33:43,100 --> 00:33:47,220
I fully expect Brees Hall to be 
able to when whatever amount of 

544
00:33:47,220 --> 00:33:49,900
that, the coaches decide that 
he's able to handle. 

545
00:33:49,900 --> 00:33:52,300
And I think that like you said, 
the later that we get in the 

546
00:33:52,300 --> 00:33:56,540
season, the more likely he's 
going to be able to take some of

547
00:33:56,540 --> 00:33:58,300
that. 
I think a big part of why the 

548
00:33:58,300 --> 00:34:01,920
snap sure was where it was was 
he's breaking long runs and and 

549
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,040
they were feeding him a lot. 
It wasn't like, oh he's on the 

550
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,840
field, right? 
And like not getting carries. 

551
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,400
Like dude, take the guy off. 
He just, you ran the ball five 

552
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,040
times on the same drive with him
like he's taking a pounding, 

553
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,000
like give him get the guy some 
water, you know, but right. 

554
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,080
So I I think he's got room to 
rise a little bit. 

555
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,800
I would anticipate his usage 
staying on the bottom half of 

556
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,139
this chart for a while, but you 
don't really need. 

557
00:34:27,540 --> 00:34:30,620
He's one of those elite 
efficiency backs, you know, 

558
00:34:30,820 --> 00:34:35,060
absolute stud in my opinion. 
So when you, that's running 

559
00:34:35,060 --> 00:34:36,540
back. 
And and we don't want to like I 

560
00:34:36,540 --> 00:34:40,699
guess I guess debate like where 
a player will be on the chart 

561
00:34:41,940 --> 00:34:49,300
how I I guess my question is how
long more do you think, how long

562
00:34:49,300 --> 00:34:52,500
more do you think before he's 
getting more targets or do you 

563
00:34:52,500 --> 00:34:56,940
do you think that's kind of like
a like it could sound like that 

564
00:34:56,940 --> 00:34:59,580
until like week 15 or something 
like that. 

565
00:34:59,900 --> 00:35:03,420
It's a good question and I I do 
think that a big part of it 

566
00:35:03,420 --> 00:35:08,260
comes down to how confident the 
coaching staff feels the value 

567
00:35:08,260 --> 00:35:10,380
of those targets that actually 
is. 

568
00:35:10,380 --> 00:35:15,100
And what I mean by that is they 
don't really care about the 

569
00:35:15,100 --> 00:35:18,580
passing game as much right now 
as the run game because they're 

570
00:35:18,580 --> 00:35:21,000
like passing him shit anyway, 
dog. 

571
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,120
Like we don't. 
We don't, We don't get you 

572
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,440
running routes out here like 
they're not worth anything. 

573
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,480
Zach ain't gonna hit you. 
And so they're like, we're fine 

574
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:30,800
having Michael Carter run out 
here. 

575
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,280
And just like occasionally it'll
be an errant ball and 

576
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,880
occasionally he'll catch it and 
whatever happens happens. 

577
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,480
Like sometimes we got to throw 
to the backs. 

578
00:35:37,720 --> 00:35:40,800
So I think that if we do see a 
quarterback change happen in New

579
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:45,640
York, you would. 
I I feel pretty strongly that 

580
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:49,720
that would be a a spot where you
would almost immediately see a 

581
00:35:49,720 --> 00:35:52,160
change in usage where it would 
be. 

582
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,000
It wouldn't be this gradual 
thing that we're talking about 

583
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,560
happening over the course of the
season. 

584
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,360
Let's just say I don't, I don't 
think there's a ton of substance

585
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,840
these Kirk Cousins to The Jets 
rumors, but just let's live in 

586
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,200
fantasyland here for a second. 
Let's say Kirk Cousins goes to 

587
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,080
The Jets at the trade deadline, 
right? 

588
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,400
I think that let's just say 
Briefs has been getting that 55 

589
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:17,720
percent, 60% snap share. 
I think you immediately see the 

590
00:36:17,720 --> 00:36:21,040
snapshot jump up into like the 
7075% range. 

591
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,840
And those additional snaps he's 
getting are almost exclusively 

592
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,200
usage in the passing game for 
him if they get a competent 

593
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:29,880
quarterback. 
So that's. 

594
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,200
I think it's predicated mostly 
on the fact that they don't 

595
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,440
think their passing game is 
worth very much right now. 

596
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:40,030
And so there's no, there's no 
need to deploy their very best 

597
00:36:40,030 --> 00:36:43,150
player who they're they're 
trying to be conscientious of 

598
00:36:43,150 --> 00:36:46,270
how much volume they, you know, 
how much work they put on him, 

599
00:36:47,790 --> 00:36:50,470
where they're saying whatever 
someone else can, right take 

600
00:36:50,470 --> 00:36:52,750
this low value stuff, we're 
saving you for the stuff that's 

601
00:36:52,750 --> 00:36:53,750
important. 
So. 

602
00:36:55,510 --> 00:36:57,870
Yeah, makes sense. 
I think I'd, I'd like to see 

603
00:36:57,870 --> 00:37:00,270
maybe get him some screens or 
something like that. 

604
00:37:01,630 --> 00:37:04,630
But yeah, it makes sense and 
definitely don't want them. 

605
00:37:04,630 --> 00:37:07,840
They're pass blocking when. 
Michael Carter seems to do it 

606
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:12,840
fine. 
I don't see a lot of players 

607
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,360
here where we haven't really 
touched on them. 

608
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,120
No. 
I mean just like trends 

609
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,800
continuing would be like DeAndre
Swift is gonna, he's Kenny 

610
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,480
Gainwell is what Kenny Gainwell 
is. 

611
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,400
And like we saw it play out last
season. 

612
00:37:29,820 --> 00:37:32,340
We for whatever reason didn't 
learn the lesson. 

613
00:37:32,420 --> 00:37:35,340
Let let some people talk us into
the fact that Kenny Gainwell was

614
00:37:35,340 --> 00:37:37,740
the Eagles back to draft because
he's going so late. 

615
00:37:38,180 --> 00:37:42,580
It's like, yeah, if you want a 
satellite back plus then you can

616
00:37:42,580 --> 00:37:44,340
take him or you can take Chuba 
Hubbard. 

617
00:37:44,620 --> 00:37:46,380
Chuba Hubbard and Kenny Gainwell
are the same shit. 

618
00:37:46,380 --> 00:37:48,740
You know, like one of them's in 
a better offense, but one of 

619
00:37:48,740 --> 00:37:51,660
them has a way better chance of 
beating out the back ahead of 

620
00:37:51,660 --> 00:37:54,620
him for significant work. 
So it's like yeah, whatever. 

621
00:37:54,620 --> 00:37:59,280
But Swift is just gonna, he's 
going to take as much of that 

622
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,560
share as he's able to carry. 
They're they're going to want to

623
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,080
give him more because he's doing
well with it. 

624
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,800
The the thing that's going to be
interesting to watch is if 

625
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,320
there's ever any, you know, 
injury or Swiftnesses any time 

626
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,680
and definitely hope that does 
not happen because he's he's a 

627
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,520
super fun running back to watch.
It'd be interesting to see. 

628
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,760
Do they just go to gain well and
he gets a ton of work. 

629
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,950
Is it Boston Scott, like, does 
maybe. 

630
00:38:26,950 --> 00:38:29,670
Maybe what we saw earlier from 
Rashad Penny where he looked so 

631
00:38:29,670 --> 00:38:32,910
bad, maybe he like wasn't fully 
healthy or something, I I don't 

632
00:38:32,910 --> 00:38:35,390
know. 
But it'd be interesting to see 

633
00:38:35,390 --> 00:38:38,230
what would happen in a Swift 
list backfield. 

634
00:38:38,230 --> 00:38:40,030
But I I think that trend will 
continue. 

635
00:38:40,590 --> 00:38:44,870
One of the other ones. 
That it's so untenable for for 

636
00:38:44,870 --> 00:38:46,510
Jane. 
Well, to keep playing this bad 

637
00:38:47,230 --> 00:38:51,970
and and still be so trusted. 
Yeah, one of the other ones that

638
00:38:51,970 --> 00:38:56,050
I think might continue is 
remodre Stevenson is working his

639
00:38:56,050 --> 00:39:00,610
way down the chart and I kind of
think that might continue as 

640
00:39:00,610 --> 00:39:03,410
well. 
The Patriots offense has been 

641
00:39:04,210 --> 00:39:09,050
really bad lately and and 
Stevenson has been worse than he

642
00:39:09,050 --> 00:39:12,850
was last season as well. 
So I'm just wondering if 

643
00:39:12,850 --> 00:39:15,770
they're. 
I don't know what's going on in 

644
00:39:15,770 --> 00:39:18,450
New England man. 
It looks looks pretty dire. 

645
00:39:18,450 --> 00:39:23,080
So I think you could easily see 
Zeke just take these. 

646
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,520
I mean the the touches are 
almost entirely worthless anyway

647
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,120
so it's it doesn't really 
matter. 

648
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,720
It's probably not worth spending
a ton of energy discussing. 

649
00:39:30,720 --> 00:39:35,280
But yeah, I think for Mandre is 
gonna gonna wind up heading down

650
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:41,120
the chart a little bit. 
Yeah and yeah, definitely feels 

651
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:46,080
and feels like like it's gone 
from like maybe 60 plus to. 

652
00:39:47,050 --> 00:39:51,810
So probably, I mean, right, last
week he was around 50 and 

653
00:39:51,810 --> 00:39:56,210
that's, I mean that's probably a
floor, but it's like you said 

654
00:39:56,210 --> 00:39:59,290
when he's playing this pearly 
it, it doesn't really matter, 

655
00:39:59,730 --> 00:40:05,330
yeah. 
And so yeah with that I guess we

656
00:40:05,330 --> 00:40:09,650
can point out that Map Reader in
in the last couple of games 

657
00:40:09,650 --> 00:40:17,080
let's say since week 3 map 
reader has had 71% of the of the

658
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:22,400
team snaps and yeah since in the
last three weeks. 

659
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:28,200
So he he would be higher and and
he's definitely the the bell cow

660
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:33,960
in in the for the giants when 
when sequin is down but that's 

661
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,280
translated to just nine expected
points. 

662
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:44,390
So it's like 70% of snaps, 9 
expected points and it that that

663
00:40:44,390 --> 00:40:51,310
does feel pretty telling for how
how bad and poor the the Giants 

664
00:40:51,310 --> 00:40:55,070
offense has been for fantasy, 
especially the especially the 

665
00:40:55,070 --> 00:40:58,150
backs. 
But all, all round. 

666
00:40:58,550 --> 00:41:04,110
And that does make me think it 
definitely makes me pretty shy 

667
00:41:04,150 --> 00:41:07,270
about taking stabs on that 
offense. 

668
00:41:07,790 --> 00:41:10,350
Yeah, it's it's an entirely 
dysfunctional offense. 

669
00:41:10,390 --> 00:41:14,790
And I go back to what Ben Gretch
has has been saying kind of this

670
00:41:14,790 --> 00:41:18,350
whole like in the offseason and 
and first couple weeks of 

671
00:41:18,510 --> 00:41:20,270
stealing signals. 
Like there's going to be 

672
00:41:20,270 --> 00:41:24,230
offenses that are functional 
that, and not just functional 

673
00:41:24,230 --> 00:41:27,470
but so good that the haves and 
the have nots that crush where 

674
00:41:27,470 --> 00:41:30,590
you you just want any, any bit 
of that offense you can get your

675
00:41:30,590 --> 00:41:31,550
hands on. 
You want it. 

676
00:41:31,790 --> 00:41:34,350
There's gonna be offenses where 
you want absolutely nothing to 

677
00:41:34,350 --> 00:41:35,870
do with them. 
And the Giants are one of them, 

678
00:41:37,820 --> 00:41:39,420
right? 
Totally agree. 

679
00:41:39,580 --> 00:41:45,260
Totally agree. 
And so yeah, let's let's move 

680
00:41:45,260 --> 00:41:48,380
on. 
And so this is same chart. 

681
00:41:48,780 --> 00:41:51,620
But here we've got a we've got 
basically the backups. 

682
00:41:53,420 --> 00:41:57,620
Anybody stand out to you here? 
The Amari de Mercado stuff I 

683
00:41:57,620 --> 00:42:00,660
know waivers have already passed
for for most people. 

684
00:42:00,660 --> 00:42:03,820
I know we, you know, you got 
like FFPC waivers tonight, but 

685
00:42:03,820 --> 00:42:08,320
for Amari de Mercado? 
The thing that I am interested 

686
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,480
in he's gotten a ton of steam as
always, the passing down guy and

687
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,680
now that Connor's gonna be out 
he's the back to own. 

688
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:20,680
I I always hate when I'm against
the market on stuff like this 

689
00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:24,960
and to be perfect, like for full
transparency, I I empty the clip

690
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,840
on fab on him and my my home 
league. 

691
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:32,480
I told told people to do the 
same, but I I kind of think that

692
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,640
it's Kiante Ingram and it's 
it's. 

693
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:39,040
It feels like too little of a 
signal to go off of, but the 

694
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,000
Cardinals released their depth 
chart and had Kiante Ingram 

695
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,760
listed as the RB1. 
He had missed time with a neck 

696
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:50,520
injury the last couple weeks, 
but he's he's like at least kind

697
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:55,600
of interesting and like could be
kind of good he he wasn't good 

698
00:42:55,600 --> 00:43:00,000
last season, you know, But I 
don't think Amari de Mercado is 

699
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,040
very good. 
He wasn't an exciting prospect 

700
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,030
or anything. 
So I'm. 

701
00:43:06,230 --> 00:43:10,830
I'm worried that the Amari de 
Mercado waiver pickup might be 

702
00:43:10,830 --> 00:43:13,470
fool's gold. 
And you know, I'm, I'm going to 

703
00:43:13,470 --> 00:43:15,990
end up starting him in a dynasty
league this week. 

704
00:43:16,510 --> 00:43:23,790
But I think that it might end up
being you start de Mercado, the 

705
00:43:23,790 --> 00:43:28,470
week plays out and it's like he 
got, you know, 3 targets for 12 

706
00:43:28,470 --> 00:43:31,190
yards and four carries for 15 
yards. 

707
00:43:31,190 --> 00:43:33,110
And it was Kiante Ingram that 
got. 

708
00:43:33,550 --> 00:43:37,670
The James Connor workload, so 
I'm just a little hesitant 

709
00:43:37,670 --> 00:43:39,430
there. 
I mean, if if you've got a 

710
00:43:39,430 --> 00:43:42,790
choice between de Mercado or 
Kiante Ingram, the market would 

711
00:43:42,790 --> 00:43:44,830
definitely tell you it's de 
Mercado right now. 

712
00:43:45,310 --> 00:43:49,030
But I'm just interested. 
I'm leaving a light on for 

713
00:43:49,030 --> 00:43:51,550
Kiante Ingram. 
I think it's more ambiguous than

714
00:43:51,550 --> 00:43:53,510
the market is representing 
currently. 

715
00:43:53,510 --> 00:43:57,270
So that was one on this chart 
that I wanted to talk about. 

716
00:43:58,130 --> 00:44:00,730
The other one is Spears. 
Spears is looking so it does 

717
00:44:00,730 --> 00:44:04,210
seem I I guess just on the 
Mercardo it does seem like he's 

718
00:44:04,210 --> 00:44:09,770
definitely the the passing down 
back like even when even when 

719
00:44:09,770 --> 00:44:15,010
Connor is like around and he he 
it seems like he's the one who's

720
00:44:15,010 --> 00:44:18,440
been getting the roots. 
That's, that's correct. 

721
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,680
But it's also been without 
Kiante Ingram around. 

722
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:25,240
And so I'm wondering so yes, 
they do seem to like to Mercado 

723
00:44:25,240 --> 00:44:30,080
over Connor in some passing 
situations, but is that 

724
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:34,280
necessarily the K like do they 
feel the same way with him 

725
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,800
relative to Kiante Ingram and 
and I don't know the answer, you

726
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,360
know, but I'm just saying I 
think it's more ambiguous than 

727
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,000
the market would have us think 
right now. 

728
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:48,560
And yeah, yeah, I think that's 
actually fair because I'm 

729
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,360
looking at, I'm looking at the 
the last time. 

730
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,960
So the last time they were 
they're both healthy or or or 

731
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:02,160
and Kiante played a full game. 
I think Ingram had, he had five 

732
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:07,120
routes and then Mercado had a 
tree routes. 

733
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:12,590
So yeah, that that seems pretty 
fair. 

734
00:45:12,590 --> 00:45:15,070
Whereas like, we don't actually 
have a huge sample size of when 

735
00:45:15,070 --> 00:45:17,590
they're both healthy. 
Yeah. 

736
00:45:17,590 --> 00:45:21,190
And I think they're, I mean like
if I have to give the edge to 

737
00:45:21,190 --> 00:45:23,590
one of them, like I think 
Ingram's probably a slightly 

738
00:45:23,590 --> 00:45:25,590
better football player than de 
Mercado. 

739
00:45:25,590 --> 00:45:29,390
And so I don't know, I think 
it's close though and the market

740
00:45:29,390 --> 00:45:32,430
wouldn't have you believe that 
currently with everything I've 

741
00:45:32,430 --> 00:45:35,750
seen if you. 
If you already were on Ingram, 

742
00:45:35,750 --> 00:45:37,870
then good for you. 
You're you're thinking about it 

743
00:45:37,870 --> 00:45:40,150
critically, but it could be 
either guy is all I wanted to 

744
00:45:40,150 --> 00:45:42,430
say. 
I I wanted to point out Spears 

745
00:45:42,470 --> 00:45:48,390
as well on this chart just 
because we saw like flashes of 

746
00:45:48,390 --> 00:45:51,990
competency with the Tennessee 
offense, like Hopkins had a good

747
00:45:51,990 --> 00:45:55,030
game and looked looked kind of 
like vintage Hopkins. 

748
00:45:55,790 --> 00:45:59,790
So I think that, I mean, let me 
let me paint you a picture. 

749
00:46:00,590 --> 00:46:04,890
It's Week 12. 
The Tennessee Titans are on A5 

750
00:46:04,890 --> 00:46:07,970
game win streak. 
Mike Vrable's got the team 

751
00:46:08,930 --> 00:46:12,530
squarely in the playoff hunt, 
Ryan Tannehill's looking like 

752
00:46:12,530 --> 00:46:16,410
vintage Ryan Tannehill, and the 
offense is humming and they're 

753
00:46:16,450 --> 00:46:20,050
you know, they're delivering 
usable fantasy weeks for 

754
00:46:20,050 --> 00:46:24,650
multiple weapons and Derrick 
Henry goes down and misses some 

755
00:46:24,650 --> 00:46:27,570
time. 
Isn't Taji Spears like? 

756
00:46:28,020 --> 00:46:31,980
Incredibly valuable, that with 
what we've seen from him and 

757
00:46:31,980 --> 00:46:35,260
like, if you look at it through 
the lens of this offense, could 

758
00:46:35,260 --> 00:46:37,340
get it together. 
Like it's not the wildest thing 

759
00:46:37,340 --> 00:46:41,460
in the world to think that a 
Mike Frabel team kind of gets 

760
00:46:41,460 --> 00:46:43,940
their shit together over the 
course of the season, right? 

761
00:46:43,940 --> 00:46:47,980
Like he's, he's a good coach. 
He's like very, very Boomerific 

762
00:46:47,980 --> 00:46:51,420
and that they really want to 
establish it and and all that. 

763
00:46:51,420 --> 00:46:54,070
Rob, Rob, you know. 
Bite their kneecaps. 

764
00:46:54,070 --> 00:46:56,230
Not all the way Dan Campbell. 
Bite their kneecaps. 

765
00:46:56,230 --> 00:46:58,830
But you know what I'm saying. 
But I think. 

766
00:46:59,350 --> 00:47:02,070
That that's an interesting 
situation. 

767
00:47:02,070 --> 00:47:04,190
So Spears is a great stash in my
opinion. 

768
00:47:05,750 --> 00:47:11,630
Yeah, I mean, he's averaging 
since Week 3, he's had 10 

769
00:47:11,630 --> 00:47:21,390
expected points per game. 
So I almost think maybe he's one

770
00:47:21,390 --> 00:47:24,710
of those players where you you 
you don't know the the week to 

771
00:47:24,710 --> 00:47:28,990
start them and but that all that
that seems almost startable to 

772
00:47:28,990 --> 00:47:31,350
me. 
Would you say he's better in 

773
00:47:31,350 --> 00:47:36,310
basketball? 
I I was about to yeah. 

774
00:47:36,350 --> 00:47:42,710
So I mean OK so week one 8.8 
expected points. 

775
00:47:42,710 --> 00:47:49,230
Week 278.88.5 and then 11.8. 
So like that seems like actually

776
00:47:49,230 --> 00:47:54,780
like for a 0 RB team that seems 
actually you're you're happy to 

777
00:47:54,780 --> 00:47:57,140
start that. 
Yeah, if you it's. 

778
00:47:57,180 --> 00:48:00,980
Squarely in the win category for
a 0 RB team, if you drafted 

779
00:48:00,980 --> 00:48:05,420
Spears, is a 0 RB part of your 
your RB cohort? 

780
00:48:05,580 --> 00:48:08,820
That's a that's a big W it's 
looking like and and the 

781
00:48:08,820 --> 00:48:10,900
contingent upside is fantastic, 
right? 

782
00:48:10,900 --> 00:48:12,580
That's like, yeah, that's the 
dream. 

783
00:48:12,580 --> 00:48:14,300
That's what you want. 
You're getting these little 

784
00:48:14,300 --> 00:48:18,420
usable weeks to not die at the 
position and in the event that 

785
00:48:18,420 --> 00:48:21,280
things break your way. 
All of a sudden you've got a 

786
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:28,880
super team so so his ADP in the 
resurrection is 114 so I mean 

787
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,840
that leads me to believe that 
and and and definitely in shower

788
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:39,160
leagues and then that he's 
available and if if you like me 

789
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,840
have have some teams where 
you're not sure who who to start

790
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:47,520
at running back or or who to 
take like seems pretty crystal 

791
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:52,140
clear like that's it an elite 0 
RB option. 

792
00:48:52,500 --> 00:48:57,140
And here's a Here's a fun one. 
Yeah, Spears or Roshan Johnson. 

793
00:48:57,140 --> 00:49:06,860
Rest of season and I would say I
I would say Spears just because 

794
00:49:09,940 --> 00:49:13,340
I guess Roshan has had the 
injury in front of him but then 

795
00:49:13,340 --> 00:49:17,020
you have to figure out ohh how's
that going to work out with 

796
00:49:17,020 --> 00:49:24,050
Donta Foreman and and I out in 
the zero or be contingent upside

797
00:49:24,050 --> 00:49:26,410
stuff. 
I always preferred the guy who's

798
00:49:26,450 --> 00:49:29,930
already playing good snaps 
anyway because like there 

799
00:49:29,970 --> 00:49:33,330
there's there's no clearer 
signal that a team likes the guy

800
00:49:33,330 --> 00:49:36,930
and trust the guy then they're 
already playing him like they're

801
00:49:36,930 --> 00:49:41,690
taking snaps away from Derrick 
Henry to play this guy and like 

802
00:49:41,730 --> 00:49:44,970
I I there's definitely been 
signs that Derrick Henry is a 

803
00:49:44,970 --> 00:49:51,250
little bit past it the hill and 
but that to me they they they 

804
00:49:51,450 --> 00:49:55,050
they must love this guy and so 
if they're Henry wear them this 

805
00:49:55,050 --> 00:50:00,290
time they're like OK like next 
man up like they they they 

806
00:50:00,290 --> 00:50:04,530
already trust him So that to me 
is like I guess he is small and 

807
00:50:04,530 --> 00:50:10,410
and you have the issues but I'd 
be yeah I I having seen that 

808
00:50:10,690 --> 00:50:14,010
that outlook for him or that 
that start for him like I I 

809
00:50:14,010 --> 00:50:17,850
think that's super strong. 
That's a that's a good point I. 

810
00:50:18,940 --> 00:50:21,500
I I think I thought it was 
closer when I asked you that 

811
00:50:21,500 --> 00:50:23,420
question but you've swayed me. 
I've. 

812
00:50:23,460 --> 00:50:26,980
I've come around a little more 
and I like, I'm not the dump on 

813
00:50:26,980 --> 00:50:29,020
Roshan. 
I'm just like, super excited 

814
00:50:29,300 --> 00:50:32,460
about Taje. 
Yeah, that's fair. 

815
00:50:35,020 --> 00:50:40,020
And I don't I I guess it's it's 
a bit interesting that Devon 

816
00:50:40,020 --> 00:50:46,100
Signature is is on this chart 
that it it it felt a little bit 

817
00:50:46,100 --> 00:50:49,050
like at the start of the year 
that he was going to be a little

818
00:50:49,050 --> 00:50:54,410
bit more irrelevant and feels 
pretty strong that he's there 

819
00:50:54,770 --> 00:50:58,090
and and and sort of like good 
distribution where he's got rush

820
00:50:58,090 --> 00:51:04,330
attempts and he's got roots. 
So and the offense is sort of 

821
00:51:04,330 --> 00:51:09,850
humming like I don't know if 
he's I don't think he's exactly 

822
00:51:09,890 --> 00:51:15,220
startable but you're red. 
That's another one where he's 

823
00:51:15,220 --> 00:51:18,380
not startable basically but 
that's another one where your 

824
00:51:18,380 --> 00:51:22,580
contingent upside is. 
I just looked at the expected 

825
00:51:22,580 --> 00:51:24,500
points. 
He's not startable, but your 

826
00:51:24,500 --> 00:51:26,940
contingent upside is pretty good
there, I think. 

827
00:51:27,620 --> 00:51:29,340
Yeah. 
I'm not as sold on the 

828
00:51:29,340 --> 00:51:32,620
contingent upside on that one. 
I mean, shoot. 

829
00:51:32,620 --> 00:51:36,100
Like, I don't think even if, 
say, Damian Pierce goes down. 

830
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:39,760
They're not. 
They're not about to like Devon 

831
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:45,400
Singletary Bell cow alpha back. 
He's going out of pick 210. 

832
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:47,280
OK. 
Oh, OK. 

833
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,040
Yeah. 
At pick 210 for sure. 

834
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,320
Yeah, go go ahead. 
I'll I'll take him as a last 

835
00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:55,840
round pick, especially that 
that's like clear Miss Price to 

836
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:56,240
me. 
Yeah, yeah. 

837
00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:00,560
You're OK with with that piece 
of context, 100% and especially 

838
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:04,080
I guess going from Taj Spears to
Devon Singh, injury is probably 

839
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:08,910
like a little bit of whiplash. 
But given how like Dad and Berid

840
00:52:08,910 --> 00:52:12,230
he is and he was on it, he was 
on our waiver wire at last week 

841
00:52:12,230 --> 00:52:14,270
for stock chasing, we didn't get
him. 

842
00:52:14,550 --> 00:52:18,030
But like in in situations like 
that where you're you're trying 

843
00:52:18,030 --> 00:52:23,390
to pick cigar buts up off the 
grounds like premium, premium 

844
00:52:23,390 --> 00:52:25,590
cigar, but right. 
Here Ohh yeah there's still some

845
00:52:25,590 --> 00:52:27,430
life left on that stogie for 
sure. 

846
00:52:28,990 --> 00:52:34,710
I I would say that the the Devon
Singletary like. 

847
00:52:35,110 --> 00:52:40,590
Contingent upside at pick 210 is
definitely way better than the 

848
00:52:40,590 --> 00:52:42,790
stuff that's available in that 
range. 

849
00:52:42,790 --> 00:52:46,030
And again, what we talked about 
in Resurrection, there's so much

850
00:52:46,030 --> 00:52:50,070
less ambiguity. 
So during the offseason, when 

851
00:52:50,070 --> 00:52:53,390
you're drafting guys that are 
going like in that undrafted 

852
00:52:53,390 --> 00:52:55,990
range, there's some real gems 
there. 

853
00:52:55,990 --> 00:52:59,270
You know, there's Kyren, there's
Puka, there's Tutu, there's 

854
00:52:59,270 --> 00:53:01,910
Justice Hill, there's, there's 
some awesome stuff. 

855
00:53:02,790 --> 00:53:05,270
But now like. 
The cat's out of the bag on most

856
00:53:05,270 --> 00:53:08,950
of those guys so the ambiguous 
stuff is just for the most part 

857
00:53:08,950 --> 00:53:11,030
dead and gone. 
And so to get right Dev and 

858
00:53:11,030 --> 00:53:14,350
Singletary there where it's like
people just buried in because 

859
00:53:14,350 --> 00:53:19,070
he's not not super exciting but 
like that's a guy might get you 

860
00:53:19,070 --> 00:53:21,430
7 points in a week that you need
it, you know. 

861
00:53:21,550 --> 00:53:25,270
So, right, that's worth it at 
that point in the draft where 

862
00:53:25,270 --> 00:53:27,950
normally in best ball like with 
that last round pick. 

863
00:53:29,470 --> 00:53:31,430
Fuck your seven points. 
Like, give me, give me someone 

864
00:53:31,430 --> 00:53:33,430
who has some crazy upside, you 
know? 

865
00:53:33,430 --> 00:53:35,870
But like, right in resurrection.
It's just that it's a slightly 

866
00:53:35,870 --> 00:53:38,150
different version of the game. 
Yeah, but right. 

867
00:53:38,150 --> 00:53:43,470
I mean he he had a he had 6 1/2 
points in week 3 and like that 

868
00:53:43,470 --> 00:53:46,030
that and that's that's that's 
not even contingent value. 

869
00:53:46,030 --> 00:53:52,270
So like if you in some rougher 0
RB rooms, I guess you you still 

870
00:53:52,270 --> 00:53:56,170
get some starts but if they mean
parents were to go down like I 

871
00:53:56,170 --> 00:54:00,250
definitely think 10 to 15 is 
like weekly is is pretty pretty 

872
00:54:00,250 --> 00:54:03,650
viable there. 
Yeah, you, you got me on the 10,

873
00:54:04,210 --> 00:54:08,930
maybe not on the 15. 
Listen, I want, I want a 

874
00:54:08,930 --> 00:54:10,930
tournament on 15 points from 
Devon. 

875
00:54:10,930 --> 00:54:11,570
Single. 
Very. 

876
00:54:13,010 --> 00:54:15,730
There. 
All right, let's move to the 

877
00:54:15,730 --> 00:54:21,530
tight end chart here. 
And I like we still have 

878
00:54:21,610 --> 00:54:27,320
expected points. 
I mean, I think probably best to

879
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,160
talk about maybe some of the 
efficiency. 

880
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,600
Yeah, when we talk so much about
usage. 

881
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:38,400
Yeah, When I was first looking 
at this chart, there were a 

882
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:40,560
couple. 
We already talked about Swift, 

883
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:44,120
we talked about Pacheco last 
week, but the stuff I was 

884
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:49,440
noticing was guys in that 5 to 
10 fantasy point range, which. 

885
00:54:50,050 --> 00:54:52,250
I mean, speak of the devil. 
There's Devin Singletary. 

886
00:54:52,250 --> 00:54:56,250
I saw a lot of guys though in 
that range, both on this one and

887
00:54:56,250 --> 00:54:57,530
the next chart that we'll look 
at. 

888
00:54:57,730 --> 00:55:00,970
Whereas these are all kind of 
interesting, like there's a lot 

889
00:55:00,970 --> 00:55:04,610
of guys here where we talked 
about Taje Spears. 

890
00:55:04,690 --> 00:55:07,170
It's so funny, like all the guys
that we just spent a bunch of 

891
00:55:07,170 --> 00:55:09,250
time talking about, they're all 
right there in this range. 

892
00:55:09,290 --> 00:55:12,470
That's why I had. 
Kind of identified this as a a 

893
00:55:12,470 --> 00:55:16,950
lucrative spot of the chart to 
to drill down on Jalen Warren 

894
00:55:16,950 --> 00:55:21,190
Taja Spears I think P Ryan you 
know really you're just looking 

895
00:55:21,190 --> 00:55:26,910
at Broncos backfield member 
ideally there's not three of 

896
00:55:26,910 --> 00:55:29,710
them active is is what you're 
looking at there with either 

897
00:55:29,710 --> 00:55:35,110
Jaleel or P Ryan but you know 
Justice Hill being in there too 

898
00:55:35,590 --> 00:55:40,090
we did see Justice Hill. 
Again, when he's healthy because

899
00:55:40,090 --> 00:55:42,250
in that first week back he only 
got 11 staff. 

900
00:55:42,290 --> 00:55:44,930
So when he's healthy he's the 
one that's getting the high 

901
00:55:44,930 --> 00:55:48,090
value touches for the running 
backs which is does the thesis 

902
00:55:48,130 --> 00:55:51,970
all along on Justice Hill. 
And so I definitely think that 

903
00:55:51,970 --> 00:55:56,850
you can see this this group of 
guys here in this 5 to 10 range.

904
00:55:57,170 --> 00:56:01,170
I see the potential for upward 
trajectory for a lot of them and

905
00:56:01,170 --> 00:56:04,850
and we talked about a lot of 
them Charbonnay as well, we 

906
00:56:04,850 --> 00:56:06,890
didn't cover on because he had a
he had a buy but. 

907
00:56:07,790 --> 00:56:10,510
Charbonnay I think is also 
interesting because we've seen 

908
00:56:10,910 --> 00:56:15,470
his snap share and his routes 
increase week over week and 

909
00:56:15,470 --> 00:56:18,710
Kenneth Walker's routes and 
involvement in the passing game 

910
00:56:18,710 --> 00:56:22,190
decreased a little bit and and 
Charbonnay looked has looked 

911
00:56:22,670 --> 00:56:26,110
like the kind of back that gets 
Pete Carroll all hot and 

912
00:56:26,110 --> 00:56:28,030
bothered too. 
You know, he's just willing to 

913
00:56:28,030 --> 00:56:30,230
run his face in another man's 
face, so. 

914
00:56:31,350 --> 00:56:34,950
But that range, that was my when
I put this chart together, I was

915
00:56:34,950 --> 00:56:38,030
like, man, this 5 to 10. 
Point range is actually what we 

916
00:56:38,030 --> 00:56:40,270
need to focus on and talk about 
this week because there's some 

917
00:56:40,270 --> 00:56:48,430
really interesting players here.
Yeah and I agree and I I I guess

918
00:56:48,990 --> 00:56:53,350
it we've we've sort of like hit 
on them all or or most of them 

919
00:56:54,110 --> 00:57:01,110
and I don't know know if there's
anyone we haven't talked about 

920
00:57:01,430 --> 00:57:05,990
like I I mean we we've we've 
buried Nigel Harris like 

921
00:57:06,670 --> 00:57:10,550
honestly it's it's sort of 
shocking to see him in the five 

922
00:57:10,550 --> 00:57:12,710
to 10 expected points range 
like. 

923
00:57:12,790 --> 00:57:14,710
He's done. 
He's done a little better, you 

924
00:57:14,710 --> 00:57:18,630
know, for for like and I don't 
hear what I'm not saying like 

925
00:57:18,950 --> 00:57:21,550
still not gonna be drafted very 
much Naji Harris. 

926
00:57:21,550 --> 00:57:23,870
I mean, I know the market has 
started to come around on like a

927
00:57:23,870 --> 00:57:28,510
more efficient price for him. 
But he's been better with 

928
00:57:28,510 --> 00:57:30,830
respect to like what Naji has 
been. 

929
00:57:30,910 --> 00:57:33,910
He's been the better version of 
Naji lately where he's had a 

930
00:57:33,910 --> 00:57:38,140
couple breakaway runs and. 
You know, I mean, he's the the 

931
00:57:38,140 --> 00:57:41,740
most frustrating thing about I 
I'm just, I'm going to put 

932
00:57:41,740 --> 00:57:46,380
myself in the headspace of a 
Naji Fantasy owner right now. 

933
00:57:47,180 --> 00:57:51,700
And I'm watching Naji Harris, 
who I was so excited to draft. 

934
00:57:51,700 --> 00:57:55,540
He's disappointed me all season 
and he breaks a long run and 

935
00:57:55,540 --> 00:57:59,300
he's breaking away from the 
defense and just when I'm 

936
00:57:59,300 --> 00:58:02,540
thinking he's going to pull away
and score a touchdown. 

937
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,240
There's defensive lineman 
gaining on him and he is getting

938
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:10,280
caught from behind by like the 
the ref who looks like he needs 

939
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,040
a Walker to be out there on the 
field. 

940
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:17,040
That's like also gaining on Naji
like the dude is never take this

941
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:19,730
to the bank. 
Naji Harris will not have a 

942
00:58:19,930 --> 00:58:23,130
breakaway touchdown of more than
50 yards for the rest of his 

943
00:58:23,130 --> 00:58:25,850
career. 
There's no shot like you would 

944
00:58:25,930 --> 00:58:29,730
need an earthquake to put every 
defender on the ground for him 

945
00:58:29,730 --> 00:58:32,810
to do that, like this guy just 
cannot. 

946
00:58:32,850 --> 00:58:36,170
I mean he's he's having some of 
these breakaway runs but his top

947
00:58:36,170 --> 00:58:39,490
end speed is just not there. 
So it that's got to be 

948
00:58:39,490 --> 00:58:42,050
frustrating if you're if you're 
a Naji. 

949
00:58:42,580 --> 00:58:44,940
Manager and you're watching him 
break away and you're like, 

950
00:58:44,940 --> 00:58:47,420
well, I'm never getting a 
touchdown of this, but I got my 

951
00:58:47,420 --> 00:58:49,700
two points for the 20 yards that
he got me. 

952
00:58:49,700 --> 00:58:52,660
So that's cool. 
Yeah. 

953
00:58:53,420 --> 00:58:58,420
Yeah pretty, pretty rough set 
you you're sort of down bad for 

954
00:58:58,420 --> 00:59:04,660
getting efficiency and then also
you're not get you're not 

955
00:59:04,660 --> 00:59:07,220
getting all all the work or even
close to it. 

956
00:59:07,220 --> 00:59:09,500
You're getting 5 to 10 expected 
points. 

957
00:59:10,110 --> 00:59:13,230
Alright, that was our that was 
our contractually obligated shit

958
00:59:13,230 --> 00:59:17,030
on Naji segment for the week. 
Yeah, so that's that. 

959
00:59:17,070 --> 00:59:24,590
Let's move on. 
One so call back to last chart, 

960
00:59:24,590 --> 00:59:26,870
but we could stay on this one 
because it's two players from 

961
00:59:26,870 --> 00:59:30,430
the different charts. 
But you'll you'll notice Sanders

962
00:59:30,430 --> 00:59:33,870
on the last chart was starting 
to move in the wrong direction, 

963
00:59:34,230 --> 00:59:37,590
and Chuba is looking like he 
could be moving. 

964
00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:42,640
More in a desirable direction. 
Now there's that Sanders is 

965
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:47,360
dealing with an injury, so we 
can't be 100% certain that it's 

966
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:49,800
oh, the team feels that Cuba is 
the better option. 

967
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,600
Cuba. 
Shout out to Ben Gretch for this

968
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,240
little nugget. 
Cuba has been taking a higher 

969
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:59,120
percentage of the high value 
touches away from Sanders. 

970
00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:02,640
Sanders is getting more snaps, 
but Cuba is representing a 

971
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,320
larger amount of the high value 
touches in the offense. 

972
01:00:05,850 --> 01:00:08,290
Which is not great. 
If you're a Miles Sanders 

973
01:00:08,290 --> 01:00:11,530
manager, you'd really prefer for
him to have at least a 

974
01:00:11,530 --> 01:00:13,530
proportionate amount of the high
value touches. 

975
01:00:13,930 --> 01:00:17,530
So I do think that's interesting
for Cuba. 

976
01:00:17,530 --> 01:00:20,490
And again, like the theme holds 
for this week guys in that 5 to 

977
01:00:20,490 --> 01:00:23,570
10 fantasy point range. 
I think the reason that these 

978
01:00:23,570 --> 01:00:26,610
are interesting is because like 
for a lot of the higher end 

979
01:00:26,610 --> 01:00:30,010
guys, we've talked about them ad
nauseam at this point and like 

980
01:00:30,010 --> 01:00:33,290
most of a lot of those trends 
are holding or like at least 

981
01:00:33,290 --> 01:00:36,640
continuing. 
And so it's kind of same old, 

982
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:39,480
same old, but some of these guys
in the five to 10 range look 

983
01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:42,760
like things could change for 
them. 

984
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,200
And so that's why they're the 
most interesting. 

985
01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:49,320
I think another one that shows 
up on this chart in that area is

986
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:54,080
Cam Acres. 
Man, I don't know exactly how to

987
01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:57,720
feel about it. 
So see, see where Madison is on 

988
01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:01,400
the chart, He's right on that, 
you know, barely in the 15 to 20

989
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:03,840
expected fantasy point 
threshold. 

990
01:01:04,620 --> 01:01:08,340
I think a lot of that is like 
kind of the the earlier weeks 

991
01:01:08,340 --> 01:01:12,260
holding in there from when he 
had even even higher usage. 

992
01:01:12,820 --> 01:01:16,540
How do you think this Acres and 
Madison stuff shakes out? 

993
01:01:16,540 --> 01:01:19,420
Where do both of them end 
respectively on this chart, 

994
01:01:19,420 --> 01:01:22,140
let's say six weeks from now? 
Where? 

995
01:01:22,140 --> 01:01:23,620
Where? 
Where do those guys end up? 

996
01:01:24,820 --> 01:01:28,820
So I it does seem like it's sort
of trending to where it's like a

997
01:01:28,820 --> 01:01:35,430
hot hat in situation and like 
they're both sort of like. 5050,

998
01:01:35,910 --> 01:01:42,870
so I guess if we're looking at 
Madison being at 15, let's say, 

999
01:01:42,950 --> 01:01:48,990
let's say just round numbers and
there's 2020 total in the 

1000
01:01:48,990 --> 01:01:54,990
backfield expected points. 
Then I guess for me, and maybe 

1001
01:01:54,990 --> 01:01:57,950
this is a cop out, I'm just 
going to, I'm just going to 

1002
01:01:58,030 --> 01:02:01,790
split it roughly in two and say 
they're. 

1003
01:02:02,700 --> 01:02:07,380
Your boat end up around 10 and I
guess that's been pretty much 

1004
01:02:07,780 --> 01:02:09,980
what's been true the last two 
weeks. 

1005
01:02:10,340 --> 01:02:18,300
So week four at Madison had 
11.4, week five he had 9.9 so 

1006
01:02:18,780 --> 01:02:25,500
that it like I feels like maybe 
and pretty fair. 

1007
01:02:26,020 --> 01:02:31,700
Last two weeks and acres have 
been 5.94.7 so. 

1008
01:02:32,770 --> 01:02:37,370
Yeah, I mean maybe, definitely 
on the, the, maybe the higher 

1009
01:02:37,370 --> 01:02:41,370
random somewhere between 8:00 
and 10:00 each is where I put 

1010
01:02:41,370 --> 01:02:44,330
them it's. 
It's trending towards when I 

1011
01:02:44,410 --> 01:02:47,370
when I looked at the data and 
thought like this is something I

1012
01:02:47,370 --> 01:02:50,450
I wanna ask, I I legitimately 
wanted to get your opinion on it

1013
01:02:50,450 --> 01:02:53,090
because that was the exact same 
conclusion I came to. 

1014
01:02:53,170 --> 01:02:56,290
I was like, maybe I'm just like 
middling it too much. 

1015
01:02:56,290 --> 01:02:58,170
I'm like those both be 10, 
whatever. 

1016
01:02:59,210 --> 01:03:01,890
But I'm glad you felt the same 
way 'cause that makes me feel a 

1017
01:03:01,890 --> 01:03:03,650
little more validated in my 
opinion. 

1018
01:03:03,650 --> 01:03:07,970
It's like maybe maybe I'm just 
like anti Madison Pill then he 

1019
01:03:07,970 --> 01:03:10,730
he should be higher. 
But no, I I agree with you, they

1020
01:03:10,730 --> 01:03:14,210
probably both end up right 
around that 10 fantasy point 

1021
01:03:14,210 --> 01:03:17,210
range. 
And but I I think what you 

1022
01:03:17,210 --> 01:03:21,330
mentioned about the hot hand 
thing is, is what makes this the

1023
01:03:21,330 --> 01:03:24,610
most interesting to me. 
And it's that it's not that 

1024
01:03:24,650 --> 01:03:27,690
every week they will each be 10.
It's that right? 

1025
01:03:27,890 --> 01:03:31,130
On average they will be 10, but 
you will get usable weeks from 

1026
01:03:31,130 --> 01:03:35,690
both of them. 
And I especially think that in 

1027
01:03:35,690 --> 01:03:38,690
the games where the Vikings are 
playing weaker competition, 

1028
01:03:39,010 --> 01:03:42,490
where especially teams that are 
weaker against the run, where 

1029
01:03:42,490 --> 01:03:47,490
now they have less incentive to 
throw because the best wide 

1030
01:03:47,490 --> 01:03:51,970
receiver in football is on IR 
for a couple weeks, you might 

1031
01:03:51,970 --> 01:03:54,010
end up getting a little bit more
out of these guys. 

1032
01:03:54,010 --> 01:03:56,450
And that's really interesting. 
And what's especially 

1033
01:03:56,450 --> 01:04:00,090
interesting is one of my best 
ball teams that I was just so 

1034
01:04:00,090 --> 01:04:03,490
pissed at myself for drafting 
Cam Acres on, also had a really 

1035
01:04:03,530 --> 01:04:06,930
early share of Alexander Madison
at like pick 120 or something 

1036
01:04:06,930 --> 01:04:09,570
stupid like that. 
So now I've got the the Fun 

1037
01:04:09,570 --> 01:04:12,850
Madison Acres Ping Pong weeks. 
I'm sure you all care 

1038
01:04:13,050 --> 01:04:16,200
tremendously about this. 
I will keep you posted on how it

1039
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:18,040
goes this season, I'm sure 
that's. 

1040
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,160
Gonna be what advances me to the
Finals. 

1041
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:23,080
The The Acres Madison Ping Pong 
in Week 16. 

1042
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:26,840
That said, that's a tournament 
winning combination right there.

1043
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:28,040
Sure. 
Yeah, I was. 

1044
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,440
I was thrilled. 
I actually, I'd have taught and 

1045
01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:34,280
just and and maybe I'm way off 
here. 

1046
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:39,280
I almost wondered though, if 
them not having Madison actually

1047
01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:41,880
stops them being able to run 
because. 

1048
01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:46,400
Their offense is less efficient,
so they're in less positive. 

1049
01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:48,560
Down. 
Distant situations, they're less

1050
01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:54,280
like and have the lead. 
I almost wonder if Jefferson 

1051
01:04:54,280 --> 01:05:00,160
being gone is a -100 hundred 
percent agree with you. 

1052
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:04,060
That's why I qualified it with. 
I think it's it's when they're 

1053
01:05:04,060 --> 01:05:06,820
playing weaker teams, weaker 
competition, especially those 

1054
01:05:06,820 --> 01:05:09,740
that are weak against the run. 
But in general I agree with you 

1055
01:05:09,780 --> 01:05:12,020
it's it's bad news for both of 
these backs. 

1056
01:05:12,020 --> 01:05:16,620
I think that you know it on on 
average it's gonna get worse for

1057
01:05:16,620 --> 01:05:20,460
these guys before it gets better
and it's it's really just gonna 

1058
01:05:20,460 --> 01:05:23,300
come down to how the season 
shakes out for the Vikings. 

1059
01:05:24,220 --> 01:05:26,980
I I think that people that are 
talking about like all the 

1060
01:05:26,980 --> 01:05:29,300
Vikings might blow it all up. 
They might trade away Kirk 

1061
01:05:29,300 --> 01:05:32,820
Cousins like The thing is a 
little overblown #1 because that

1062
01:05:32,820 --> 01:05:36,980
division is just trash. 
I by the this is is a little bit

1063
01:05:36,980 --> 01:05:43,220
of a not segue but are the lions
actually good Like I I feel I 

1064
01:05:43,220 --> 01:05:44,820
feel like everyone's like on 
this I. 

1065
01:05:45,020 --> 01:05:48,340
Hate to do this. 
Should we talk about some of the

1066
01:05:48,340 --> 01:05:53,460
situations where a guy's gotten 
injured and there's kind of like

1067
01:05:54,380 --> 01:05:56,540
Phillips? 
Or are there's people wondering 

1068
01:05:56,540 --> 01:05:58,980
about like, hey, who at what? 
What? 

1069
01:05:58,980 --> 01:06:00,660
What should I do? 
Like for example. 

1070
01:06:01,210 --> 01:06:05,250
And what's the best What do you 
think is the best way to play 

1071
01:06:05,290 --> 01:06:09,970
the Miami backfield right now? 
Have a piece of it, Literally 

1072
01:06:10,250 --> 01:06:14,250
pick a card, any card. 
I'm If you're doing it off 

1073
01:06:14,250 --> 01:06:17,690
waivers, it's Jeff Wilson, in my
opinion. 

1074
01:06:17,690 --> 01:06:21,930
But, like, if you can't get Jeff
Wilson, just grab the next one. 

1075
01:06:21,930 --> 01:06:25,450
You know, like, right, It's the.
Yeah, it's. 

1076
01:06:26,050 --> 01:06:28,610
You want a shot, right? 
Yeah, look at the efficiency, 

1077
01:06:28,610 --> 01:06:30,450
look at the size of those 
bubbles, man. 

1078
01:06:30,450 --> 01:06:33,770
Like I want whoever is getting 
right. 

1079
01:06:33,770 --> 01:06:36,890
If Mike McDaniel himself is 
lining up in the backfield 

1080
01:06:36,890 --> 01:06:40,490
taking like I'll take a shot on 
Mike McDaniel. 

1081
01:06:40,530 --> 01:06:43,570
You know like just I I want a 
piece of the backfield. 

1082
01:06:43,570 --> 01:06:47,170
So the the correct answer is 
play it, have a piece of it, 

1083
01:06:47,850 --> 01:06:50,010
right. 
And then if you have a team like

1084
01:06:50,330 --> 01:06:53,480
for example, in season long, if 
you're trying to figure out how 

1085
01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:57,560
to play it, I mean, if there's 
anyone that's got a chant in 

1086
01:06:57,560 --> 01:06:59,400
your league and they're 
desperate, they need the 

1087
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:02,320
production now. 
Like that's the kind of guy 

1088
01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:05,280
where I'm trying to go get it 
and and just hold it on my 

1089
01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:07,200
roster. 
If I'm in a good position to 

1090
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:11,280
make the playoffs like that 
seems extremely lucrative. 

1091
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:16,600
But no, in general Jeff Wilson 
would be my, my preference 

1092
01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:19,000
there. 
I mean, most assuming you're not

1093
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:21,960
going to be able to get most or 
he's already rostered and no 

1094
01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:24,080
one's gonna trade him now with a
chant out so. 

1095
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:30,880
Yeah yeah most is already a a 
third round pick I'm sorry no 

1096
01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:33,440
fourth round pick in 
Resurrection. 

1097
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:39,200
So definitely I I I think that's
probably pretty out of reach and

1098
01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:43,280
but you you you you definitely 
want to be prioritizing and 

1099
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:47,200
getting a piece of it and and 
like you said even if Jeff 

1100
01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:51,650
Wilson isn't there. 
You you want to you want to put 

1101
01:07:51,650 --> 01:07:56,650
yourself in position where you 
could just lock into a 

1102
01:07:56,970 --> 01:08:00,170
significant share or a 
reasonable share of the Miami 

1103
01:08:00,170 --> 01:08:05,090
backfield. 
And and then the other one that 

1104
01:08:05,090 --> 01:08:08,930
I, I, I was thinking about is 
and we touched on this a little 

1105
01:08:08,930 --> 01:08:12,410
bit but what what how do you 
think is the best way to play 

1106
01:08:12,730 --> 01:08:17,330
the the Bears backfield now that
I guess? 

1107
01:08:17,770 --> 01:08:20,970
And Herbert, he he had the 
injury. 

1108
01:08:21,290 --> 01:08:24,450
And then I've seen some kind of 
news where, like, he could come 

1109
01:08:24,450 --> 01:08:27,850
back, but he's gonna struggle to
get to 100% for the rest of the 

1110
01:08:27,850 --> 01:08:31,770
year. 
Yeah, I I mentioned in a 

1111
01:08:31,770 --> 01:08:35,689
previous show when we talked 
about high ankle sprains and 

1112
01:08:35,970 --> 01:08:38,609
kind of the mechanics of the 
injury and what it means for a 

1113
01:08:38,609 --> 01:08:41,410
running back or a player's 
fantasy production, like due to 

1114
01:08:41,410 --> 01:08:43,330
high ankle sprain is just a 
shitty injury. 

1115
01:08:43,330 --> 01:08:46,960
Like I I wish that was not a 
possible thing to happen to a 

1116
01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:48,760
human because that just sucks, 
man. 

1117
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:51,760
Like I'm I'm very sad for Khalil
Herbert. 

1118
01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:55,800
I I think he's a really good 
player and I was excited to see 

1119
01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:58,240
like maybe if the Bears could 
get it together and he had some 

1120
01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:01,000
positive game scripts to do some
work in. 

1121
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:05,760
Like that's the kind of guy 
where you you know what we we 

1122
01:09:05,760 --> 01:09:09,279
all want like Jalen Warren we we
all talked about Jalen Warren 

1123
01:09:09,279 --> 01:09:12,120
all offseason just like oh he 
could be like a Tony Pollard 

1124
01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:15,370
kind of back like while Khalil 
Herbert's not terribly involved 

1125
01:09:15,370 --> 01:09:18,210
in the passing game and to be 
fair Tony Pollard hasn't been as

1126
01:09:18,210 --> 01:09:21,050
involved in the passing in this 
season either He's he's like 

1127
01:09:21,050 --> 01:09:23,689
explosive and efficient like 
Tony Pollard is. 

1128
01:09:24,370 --> 01:09:27,490
So like I could have totally 
seen Herbert being a diet Tony 

1129
01:09:27,490 --> 01:09:29,770
Pollard. 
But to talk about guys that we 

1130
01:09:29,770 --> 01:09:32,330
actually can play going forward,
cuz I think for Herbert you're 

1131
01:09:32,330 --> 01:09:36,170
basically the way I'm treating 
Herbert in like a season long 

1132
01:09:36,170 --> 01:09:40,700
format is I need to see it first
before I'm gonna. 

1133
01:09:40,700 --> 01:09:43,100
You know if you got a better 
option I need to see it from 

1134
01:09:43,100 --> 01:09:45,340
Herbert first before I'm going 
to go back to the well on him. 

1135
01:09:47,260 --> 01:09:51,460
I would prefer to have Rochon. 
I believe that Rochon's going to

1136
01:09:51,460 --> 01:09:55,180
be the guy where through the 
course of the season the team 

1137
01:09:55,180 --> 01:10:00,180
seems to like Rochon a lot. 
I mean, #1, he's been active. 

1138
01:10:00,700 --> 01:10:04,180
It's not to form, right, Healthy
and active and and I know a big 

1139
01:10:04,180 --> 01:10:07,020
part of that was that down to 
form doesn't play special teams.

1140
01:10:07,440 --> 01:10:11,800
I think Deonte's a fine back. 
He's like a totally replacement 

1141
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:14,640
level back that can go in and 
and do the work. 

1142
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:17,120
And he's a big guy. 
He can carry a load. 

1143
01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:21,040
So I bet you especially if say, 
Roshan misses this week because 

1144
01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:22,600
he's not all the way back from 
the concussion. 

1145
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:27,080
I mean, shoot, you could get a 
very good week out of Jaunta 

1146
01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:30,080
Foreman this week and you 
probably can get some solid 

1147
01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:31,640
usable weeks from him going 
forward. 

1148
01:10:32,180 --> 01:10:36,180
But the guy I want to bet on is 
the guy with the wider range of 

1149
01:10:36,180 --> 01:10:39,580
outcomes in Rochon and the guy 
that seems like a much more 

1150
01:10:39,580 --> 01:10:43,780
competent piece in the passing 
game, where early in the season 

1151
01:10:43,780 --> 01:10:49,580
we did see flashes that they 
were not only willing to use 

1152
01:10:49,580 --> 01:10:52,140
them in the passing game, but 
they were they they gave him a 

1153
01:10:52,140 --> 01:10:55,140
lot of targets in that. 
I mean, it was a lot of garbage 

1154
01:10:55,140 --> 01:10:57,900
time stuff, but. 
I I think it was enough for me 

1155
01:10:57,900 --> 01:11:01,580
to feel like yeah Roshon could 
get used a lot in the passing 

1156
01:11:01,580 --> 01:11:04,380
game and get those high value 
touches and he's he's also got 

1157
01:11:04,380 --> 01:11:07,540
the profile to be like a between
the tackles like carry the load 

1158
01:11:07,540 --> 01:11:09,620
full three down kind of 
workhorse guy. 

1159
01:11:09,620 --> 01:11:14,420
So that's what I want, but I I 
think both are good ways to play

1160
01:11:14,420 --> 01:11:16,460
it, but I would have a lean 
towards Roshon. 

1161
01:11:17,500 --> 01:11:21,340
Yeah, yeah. 
And you're at your Your argument

1162
01:11:21,340 --> 01:11:24,850
made me feel like OK. 
Like so I know like the fantasy 

1163
01:11:25,330 --> 01:11:28,770
a lot of the the commentary that
I've seen is like you know like 

1164
01:11:28,810 --> 01:11:30,250
you just want to take shots on 
Eater. 

1165
01:11:30,890 --> 01:11:35,930
But the fact it is interesting 
that Roshan was already active 

1166
01:11:36,530 --> 01:11:40,210
which is sort of like a decent 
sign that they they like him 

1167
01:11:40,210 --> 01:11:46,050
more and then then down to 
Foreman that like that does make

1168
01:11:46,050 --> 01:11:50,810
me think OK, you know there we 
there should be a separation in 

1169
01:11:50,810 --> 01:11:54,620
in our expectations for the 2. 
Like our going in expectation 

1170
01:11:54,620 --> 01:12:01,500
should be for the the favorite 
Roshan and where's like not not 

1171
01:12:01,500 --> 01:12:05,260
going to default to like oh it's
just going to be 5050 Dante 

1172
01:12:05,260 --> 01:12:07,420
Foreman. 
He always comes in and does a 

1173
01:12:07,420 --> 01:12:12,460
great job like it. 
It does feel a little bit like 

1174
01:12:13,260 --> 01:12:18,300
you have pathways to Roshan just
winning, just winning over a big

1175
01:12:18,300 --> 01:12:21,060
role and and and that's 
something to be quite excited 

1176
01:12:21,060 --> 01:12:22,460
about. 
Yeah. 

1177
01:12:22,460 --> 01:12:26,540
I mean, and especially with even
like Fast forward to when Khalil

1178
01:12:26,540 --> 01:12:32,060
Herbert's fully healthy and back
in action, like there's a good 

1179
01:12:32,060 --> 01:12:35,020
chance that Rochon could have 
done enough. 

1180
01:12:35,020 --> 01:12:38,710
You know if he's if he's good 
and he's playing well like it 

1181
01:12:38,710 --> 01:12:42,230
could be a thing where well hey 
now it's Roshon and Khalil 

1182
01:12:42,230 --> 01:12:46,150
Herbert are just gonna split the
work one A1B and Roshon gets all

1183
01:12:46,150 --> 01:12:49,030
the passing stuff because we 
know that they don't like Khalil

1184
01:12:49,030 --> 01:12:52,270
Herbert in the passing game. 
And I I think he himself has 

1185
01:12:52,270 --> 01:12:55,830
said like, ohh yeah I need to 
get better at that like that's 

1186
01:12:55,830 --> 01:12:58,270
not my strong suit. 
So yeah I I definitely prefer 

1187
01:12:58,870 --> 01:13:02,790
Roshon there. 
Were there any other injury 

1188
01:13:02,790 --> 01:13:05,350
scenarios that we needed to go 
over? 

1189
01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:09,560
No, no, I I feel like we covered
we covered the Cardinals pretty 

1190
01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:13,520
well. 
Was was we we we went over that.

1191
01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:15,720
We kind of gave the SAT so happy
with that. 

1192
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:19,920
And then I, I, I, I think we're 
ready to move on to to tight 

1193
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:21,800
ends. 
OK, let's let's hit the tight 

1194
01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:25,160
ends here. 
Ooh, getting away with myself. 

1195
01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:29,160
And so with this is a tight end 
utilization and efficiency chart

1196
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:32,870
where. 
Essentially we're looking at 

1197
01:13:32,870 --> 01:13:35,830
what percentage of team 
dropbacks that they're running a

1198
01:13:35,830 --> 01:13:41,830
route and then just because it 
is useful to see when are how 

1199
01:13:41,830 --> 01:13:43,830
often they on the field for 
these routes. 

1200
01:13:44,550 --> 01:13:46,230
We have pass blocking in here 
too. 

1201
01:13:46,790 --> 01:13:52,430
And so you can kind of see 
Dallas Goddard by far the 

1202
01:13:52,430 --> 01:13:57,670
highest or maybe that's not the 
right way to put it, he is, he 

1203
01:13:57,670 --> 01:14:00,750
is at the highest and so that 
that's kind of like the. 

1204
01:14:02,030 --> 01:14:05,230
You know he's on the field, you 
know he's he's running a route 

1205
01:14:05,230 --> 01:14:10,950
for the most amount of passes 
and then we don't want to focus 

1206
01:14:10,950 --> 01:14:16,110
just solely on on if you're 
running a route, we want you to 

1207
01:14:16,110 --> 01:14:21,110
get targeted too because like 
for example Marc Andrews, his 

1208
01:14:21,110 --> 01:14:25,670
routes look a lot different to 
Toler Higbee because he's 

1209
01:14:25,670 --> 01:14:28,710
getting targeted 21% of his 
routes, whereas Toler Higbee is 

1210
01:14:28,710 --> 01:14:31,090
just 13%. 
Yeah. 

1211
01:14:31,090 --> 01:14:34,770
And then just because we prefer 
down the field targets, we've 

1212
01:14:34,770 --> 01:14:40,170
also got a dot. 
For example, George Kittle 

1213
01:14:40,650 --> 01:14:44,010
targeted 8.4 yards down. 
The field on average is a lot 

1214
01:14:44,010 --> 01:14:54,080
better than K Dotton's 4.1. 
Anybody here stick out is 

1215
01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:57,040
surprising to you or sort of 
like priority targets? 

1216
01:14:57,400 --> 01:15:01,440
Well, we've got a new member of 
the class this. 

1217
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:05,800
I should also say this one is 
also chose that week one that's 

1218
01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:09,320
a rolling for week. 
Yeah just like the running back 

1219
01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:13,680
one cuz usage is very important 
here but we've got a new 

1220
01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:18,190
addition to this chart and it's 
my boy Jake Ferguson with his 

1221
01:15:18,190 --> 01:15:24,990
25% targets per route run little
pittily 4.9 a dot but man if 

1222
01:15:24,990 --> 01:15:28,990
you're watching the Cowboys 
games he they sure do like 

1223
01:15:28,990 --> 01:15:31,990
involving him. 
I mean there there wasn't much 

1224
01:15:31,990 --> 01:15:35,350
to take away from the 49ers game
other than the Cowboys got 

1225
01:15:35,350 --> 01:15:39,710
absolutely curb somped but he he
definitely looks viable. 

1226
01:15:39,710 --> 01:15:43,310
I mean, shoot, like there's 
really not very many other tight

1227
01:15:43,310 --> 01:15:47,030
ends with targets per route run 
that high that you can get. 

1228
01:15:47,590 --> 01:15:51,430
I do think you're gonna see his 
snaps go up a little bit. 

1229
01:15:51,430 --> 01:15:55,070
He is not gonna climb this chart
though to get to be he. 

1230
01:15:55,070 --> 01:15:59,030
He's never gonna be like the 
getting 80% of snaps or 90% of 

1231
01:15:59,030 --> 01:16:04,950
snaps kind of guy there. 
They are already showing us that

1232
01:16:04,950 --> 01:16:08,150
they want to involve their 
rookie second round tight end 

1233
01:16:09,030 --> 01:16:12,630
who for whatever reason, like 
are Dutch last names just 

1234
01:16:12,630 --> 01:16:15,670
impossible for announcers to 
pronounce like it's Luke 

1235
01:16:15,670 --> 01:16:18,350
Schoonmacher. 
Like, it's not Schoon Maker. 

1236
01:16:18,390 --> 01:16:21,150
Can we can we stop calling the 
dude Scoon Maker Jesus. 

1237
01:16:21,550 --> 01:16:26,030
But anyway, yeah. 
I think just on on your 

1238
01:16:26,030 --> 01:16:29,310
fragerson point, if if we look 
just at the last two weeks for 

1239
01:16:29,310 --> 01:16:35,590
example he's been he's been on 
the field for 76% or 75% of 

1240
01:16:35,590 --> 01:16:39,170
dropbacks. 
With a route running at 70%, 

1241
01:16:39,890 --> 01:16:41,650
yeah. 
And that's that's more in line 

1242
01:16:41,650 --> 01:16:45,450
with what I'm expecting for him 
for kind of the hold going 

1243
01:16:45,450 --> 01:16:48,650
forward. 
I I think that you will see more

1244
01:16:48,650 --> 01:16:54,330
usage from Schoonmacher, but he 
he's Ferguson's going to be that

1245
01:16:54,330 --> 01:16:57,970
number one guy. 
I do think he's going to be able

1246
01:16:57,970 --> 01:17:01,650
to keep up that his targets for 
Routerunner. 

1247
01:17:01,890 --> 01:17:04,570
It's not an aberration like this
has been happening long enough. 

1248
01:17:04,570 --> 01:17:07,990
Like he's that little safety 
blanket, you know, that's that's

1249
01:17:07,990 --> 01:17:11,830
what they're using him as. 
And so in full PDR, he's 

1250
01:17:12,350 --> 01:17:16,030
fantastic, you know, fringe, 
fringe, tight in one. 

1251
01:17:16,550 --> 01:17:20,630
Really what you're excited for 
is the Cowboys haven't scored a 

1252
01:17:20,630 --> 01:17:24,790
ton of offensive touchdowns and 
they do really like to involve 

1253
01:17:24,790 --> 01:17:26,950
their tight ends at the goal 
line. 

1254
01:17:27,630 --> 01:17:32,680
And I I definitely am interested
in when they get some more 

1255
01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:35,160
favorable game scripts and 
situations. 

1256
01:17:35,880 --> 01:17:39,160
I think that offense in general 
is going to have to they will be

1257
01:17:39,160 --> 01:17:42,960
forced to perform better out of 
necessity because their defense 

1258
01:17:43,240 --> 01:17:48,160
just got decimated by injury. 
Like at the end of the 49ers 

1259
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:51,680
game, they literally didn't have
a fourth defensive, a fourth 

1260
01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:56,040
corner to go out on the field. 
They had three corners that were

1261
01:17:56,040 --> 01:18:00,700
healthy and able to go. 
So, like I I think that they're 

1262
01:18:00,700 --> 01:18:04,940
hurting in the secondary now and
they're they're probably gonna 

1263
01:18:04,940 --> 01:18:08,980
get scored on and and that 
defense is gonna look less 

1264
01:18:09,020 --> 01:18:12,260
threatening than it did early. 
So I think that's bullish for 

1265
01:18:12,260 --> 01:18:14,500
Jake Ferguson because the 
offense will actually have to 

1266
01:18:14,700 --> 01:18:18,140
finally score some points. 
But it remains to be seen if 

1267
01:18:18,140 --> 01:18:23,460
they can. 
Yeah, makes that makes sense and

1268
01:18:23,500 --> 01:18:25,700
looks interesting to me that 
Zach Ertz is. 

1269
01:18:26,260 --> 01:18:29,020
Like a state up here some of the
players that like have been 

1270
01:18:29,020 --> 01:18:35,060
surprising like Logan Thomas is 
like even though his his points 

1271
01:18:35,100 --> 01:18:37,340
and overall targets have seemed 
to have been good. 

1272
01:18:37,820 --> 01:18:42,700
Is is falling down a bit in 
terms of like the roots and 

1273
01:18:44,140 --> 01:18:48,580
trying to figure out like a lot 
of part of the Logan Thomas 

1274
01:18:48,580 --> 01:18:53,060
falling is we've got one game 
less where he ran all the routes

1275
01:18:53,060 --> 01:18:56,340
and we've got one game in there 
where he got his head damn near 

1276
01:18:56,340 --> 01:18:58,620
taken off. 
And left the game. 

1277
01:18:58,620 --> 01:19:02,340
That's true. 
So just since Week 4, he's been 

1278
01:19:02,340 --> 01:19:05,700
out 78%. 
So yeah, you're right. 

1279
01:19:05,700 --> 01:19:09,860
You're right. 
He I do I do like him as a he's 

1280
01:19:10,220 --> 01:19:13,660
I I think between him and Jake 
Ferguson you're getting guys 

1281
01:19:13,660 --> 01:19:17,420
that are they're getting there 
in slightly different ways but I

1282
01:19:17,420 --> 01:19:20,820
I think they're both interesting
and kind of in like the same 

1283
01:19:21,460 --> 01:19:24,460
tier of tight end. 
I would assume you know Logan 

1284
01:19:24,460 --> 01:19:28,100
Thomas has a higher a dot but 
he's getting lower targets per 

1285
01:19:28,100 --> 01:19:30,820
route run. 
I would assume they probably are

1286
01:19:30,820 --> 01:19:32,500
similar price. 
Do you know what their 

1287
01:19:32,500 --> 01:19:37,340
resurrection price is? 
And this is Logan Thomas and 

1288
01:19:37,340 --> 01:19:39,780
Zach Erts. 
And so I I'm sorry. 

1289
01:19:39,780 --> 01:19:41,660
I was saying Logan Thomas and 
Jake Ferguson. 

1290
01:19:41,660 --> 01:19:43,060
I would. 
I mean, Zach Erts. 

1291
01:19:44,500 --> 01:19:50,490
And so, Logan Thomas, 139. 
And Ferguson is one. 

1292
01:19:50,490 --> 01:19:54,770
Oh yeah, 104. 
So really good, good buying 

1293
01:19:54,770 --> 01:19:59,810
opportunity for Logan Thomas and
in my opinion about that one 

1294
01:19:59,810 --> 01:20:05,450
stands out to me. 
Makes sense for sure where 

1295
01:20:05,450 --> 01:20:10,930
you're getting him at the end of
the 12th round so definitely 

1296
01:20:10,970 --> 01:20:17,780
definitely getting a sort of a 
decent tight end during the 12th

1297
01:20:17,780 --> 01:20:22,740
round which is is tough to do 
especially when we've had so 

1298
01:20:22,740 --> 01:20:25,780
many cards flipped over at this 
stage of the game. 

1299
01:20:26,260 --> 01:20:31,300
So definitely probably a pretty 
strong and streaming target or 

1300
01:20:31,300 --> 01:20:35,100
or like pick up if you've if you
haven't gotten a leak tight end 

1301
01:20:35,580 --> 01:20:39,740
or or if you get an injury or 
something like that and then you

1302
01:20:39,740 --> 01:20:42,700
see them on the way where 
definitely a priority target 

1303
01:20:42,700 --> 01:20:47,980
there and the other one I see 
here that's a little bit 

1304
01:20:47,980 --> 01:20:57,580
interesting is Irv Smith who is 
right at he's he's right around 

1305
01:21:03,780 --> 01:21:10,900
he's right around like what just
under under 80% so that I I 

1306
01:21:10,900 --> 01:21:13,340
think that isn't a little bit 
interesting the target's not 

1307
01:21:13,340 --> 01:21:17,150
there the a dot isn't great but 
a little bit. 

1308
01:21:18,110 --> 01:21:21,150
It's it's concerning that the 
targets aren't there because 

1309
01:21:21,150 --> 01:21:25,230
there is nobody on that offense 
outside of Jamar Chase. 

1310
01:21:25,230 --> 01:21:28,790
So like if he had any target 
earning capability he would be 

1311
01:21:28,790 --> 01:21:33,310
getting targets already. 
So for me and I, man, I want Irv

1312
01:21:33,310 --> 01:21:36,550
Smith to happen. 
I was, I was super excited about

1313
01:21:36,550 --> 01:21:39,270
Irv Smith early in his career 
when he was on the Vikings. 

1314
01:21:39,270 --> 01:21:44,310
Like I is all about IRV, but I I
think this is. 

1315
01:21:44,720 --> 01:21:48,000
Pretty good signal that Earth 
Smith is not happening. 

1316
01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:51,000
Like he he can't. 
Tyler boy doesn't look great 

1317
01:21:51,040 --> 01:21:55,760
like he he's getting you know 
who we got Trent Taylor out 

1318
01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,920
there like he's not earning 
targets over those guys. 

1319
01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:03,720
Like it doesn't doesn't seem 
terribly promising And also in 

1320
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:08,200
an offense that's still outside 
of the Jamar chase going 

1321
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:09,960
absolutely nuclear against the 
Cardinals. 

1322
01:22:09,960 --> 01:22:11,920
Like, I'm not totally convinced 
that. 

1323
01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:17,000
The Bengals are back, you know, 
So Irv Smith, for me personally,

1324
01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:21,520
less interesting. 
But I do need to get your I need

1325
01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:26,560
to get your alpha on the Adam 
Troutman, Greg Dolcet situation.

1326
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:30,600
I alluded to this earlier. 
For those of you that are with 

1327
01:22:30,600 --> 01:22:37,800
us that did not follow Dricos 
Insider Intel this offseason, he

1328
01:22:37,800 --> 01:22:40,110
gave us. 
The information that Adam 

1329
01:22:40,110 --> 01:22:44,670
Troutman was in fact the Broncos
starting tight end Months before

1330
01:22:44,670 --> 01:22:49,030
the season, he let us know that 
Dulcich was not in fact the guy.

1331
01:22:49,470 --> 01:22:52,590
He saved me lots of money that 
would have gone. 

1332
01:22:52,630 --> 01:22:54,470
I saved so much money myself 
from that. 

1333
01:22:54,630 --> 01:22:59,870
I was so excited about Dulcich 
and yeah know somebody who knows

1334
01:22:59,870 --> 01:23:02,990
somebody and they're like yeah 
Adam Troutman was the starter 

1335
01:23:03,710 --> 01:23:10,970
and OK so I feel it sounds like 
you're gonna ask me so dosage 

1336
01:23:10,970 --> 01:23:16,690
coming back what's what's the 
outlook here And I think his 

1337
01:23:16,730 --> 01:23:19,730
outlook is is really just gonna 
be like sort of like a 

1338
01:23:20,210 --> 01:23:26,050
occasional tight end two. 
So you well it'll probably get 

1339
01:23:26,250 --> 01:23:31,330
more snaps than than most tight 
end twos but you're probably 

1340
01:23:31,330 --> 01:23:38,810
looking at 50% route share maybe
60% ish on a good week and and 

1341
01:23:39,610 --> 01:23:45,330
more harms the the slot receiver
role for the Broncos than 

1342
01:23:45,370 --> 01:23:49,970
anything else and that and and 
and that's that's sort of like 

1343
01:23:49,970 --> 01:23:52,530
what I'm expecting. 
So how how do you use that? 

1344
01:23:53,290 --> 01:23:58,890
I'm not sure. 
I I, it makes me a little bit 

1345
01:23:58,890 --> 01:24:02,810
concerned for Marvin Mims that 
like, OK, like they're putting 

1346
01:24:02,810 --> 01:24:06,530
these dust balls on the field 
ahead of them and now they have 

1347
01:24:06,530 --> 01:24:08,980
somebody who like, they actually
like playing. 

1348
01:24:09,700 --> 01:24:14,060
And that kind of hurts his 
ability to get on the field 

1349
01:24:14,060 --> 01:24:17,460
more. 
But I don't know if that's if 

1350
01:24:17,460 --> 01:24:21,780
that's that useful for fantasy. 
I don't know. 

1351
01:24:22,060 --> 01:24:25,980
I do think it's useful in the 
fact that we know that it's 

1352
01:24:25,980 --> 01:24:29,020
really, we talked about this 
earlier with respect to Russ. 

1353
01:24:29,020 --> 01:24:33,800
It's hard like. 
Just like how Pat Mahomes is 

1354
01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:37,720
really kind of hard to play in 
DFS because it's like, well, I I

1355
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:39,560
basically have to play Mahomes 
with Kelsey. 

1356
01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:42,160
I can't use any of the wide 
receivers because it's just too 

1357
01:24:42,160 --> 01:24:45,440
like I'm just drawing too thin 
to actually pick the right one 

1358
01:24:45,440 --> 01:24:47,480
in a given week. 
And like, I got a limited number

1359
01:24:47,480 --> 01:24:50,120
of entry. 
If I was allowed to have 10,000 

1360
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:53,320
entries, sure, there would be an
optimal frequency to roll out 

1361
01:24:53,400 --> 01:24:56,040
Mahomes with random wide 
receivers, you know? 

1362
01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:59,760
But I think you're gonna see 
that with Wilson this season 2. 

1363
01:25:00,210 --> 01:25:03,290
Unless you get a significant 
shift in how the Broncos are 

1364
01:25:03,330 --> 01:25:07,730
operating their offense right 
now, you're not, you're you're 

1365
01:25:07,730 --> 01:25:12,290
not going to be able to kind of 
dial in who in that passing game

1366
01:25:12,650 --> 01:25:15,970
is the guy that you want. 
And so how I would play it in 

1367
01:25:15,970 --> 01:25:19,410
best ball going forward for 
resurrection is unless I'm 

1368
01:25:19,410 --> 01:25:24,170
getting a significant discount 
on Broncos passing game options.

1369
01:25:24,620 --> 01:25:27,580
I'm really not taking them. 
I'm pretty much only taking them

1370
01:25:27,580 --> 01:25:29,820
when I'm stacking them with 
Russell Wilson. 

1371
01:25:29,820 --> 01:25:34,780
I think when you have an offense
like this where it's just so 

1372
01:25:35,380 --> 01:25:39,420
hard to pin down who's going to 
be the guy scoring you points 

1373
01:25:39,420 --> 01:25:42,540
regularly, you really just only 
want to be doing that when it's 

1374
01:25:42,540 --> 01:25:45,620
correlated. 
So I think that's how you apply 

1375
01:25:45,780 --> 01:25:48,580
that Adam Troutman inside info, 
right? 

1376
01:25:48,620 --> 01:25:54,480
You're able to give us, so maybe
maybe he's like Trout. 

1377
01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:58,160
Sorry, not Troutman. 
Maybe Troutman and dosage it 

1378
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:02,440
when there's still minimum. 
Maybe that they are viable plays

1379
01:26:02,440 --> 01:26:07,800
as stocks. 
But you you really, you really 

1380
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:10,760
want to put it, Especially as 
you're thinking about something 

1381
01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:13,240
like DFS. 
You can probably. 

1382
01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:17,040
You probably do want to play 
some pretty strong slash jockey 

1383
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:20,100
plays around them. 
Yeah that's a that's a great 

1384
01:26:20,100 --> 01:26:24,300
call just with the the QB tied 
in correlation being so strong 

1385
01:26:24,300 --> 01:26:28,180
and so much based on you know 
touchdown scoring that's that's 

1386
01:26:28,180 --> 01:26:32,810
probably. 
I I'm also mad at you for that. 

1387
01:26:32,810 --> 01:26:36,090
Because now I there's there's 
going to be a week where I light

1388
01:26:36,090 --> 01:26:39,090
some money on fire playing 
Russell Wilson with a stupid 

1389
01:26:39,090 --> 01:26:41,010
tight end stack. 
And I'm gonna be looking at my 

1390
01:26:41,010 --> 01:26:43,690
phone at like 1:00 on a Sunday 
afternoon. 

1391
01:26:44,090 --> 01:26:47,690
Like, well, there goes all those
lineups, all those Russell 

1392
01:26:47,690 --> 01:26:49,770
Wilson tight end stack lineups. 
Damn it. 

1393
01:26:49,770 --> 01:26:52,530
Drink. 
Yeah, the in the the info, the 

1394
01:26:52,530 --> 01:26:54,490
alpha it give it and I take it 
away. 

1395
01:26:55,090 --> 01:26:58,450
Yeah, it saved my best ball 
bags, but it's I'm gonna light 

1396
01:26:58,450 --> 01:27:03,850
some DFS money on fire. 
I already know, so let's move on

1397
01:27:05,490 --> 01:27:08,890
to the backup section of the 
chart and. 

1398
01:27:09,450 --> 01:27:12,650
There's two. 
There's literally 2 here. 

1399
01:27:12,650 --> 01:27:16,170
I'm gonna save us some time. 
There's two guys worth talking 

1400
01:27:16,170 --> 01:27:17,770
about here. 
Okay. 

1401
01:27:17,770 --> 01:27:25,010
One of them is Michael Meyer. 
Because he he started to get 

1402
01:27:25,010 --> 01:27:29,290
some usage and it was like 
downfield targets and holy cow 

1403
01:27:29,450 --> 01:27:32,570
surprise the guy who was 
heralded as like the best tight 

1404
01:27:32,570 --> 01:27:36,090
end in the class looks really 
good at playing tight end. 

1405
01:27:36,090 --> 01:27:39,970
Like who could have, yeah, he he
looks he looks good man. 

1406
01:27:41,010 --> 01:27:48,410
And so 41% Reacher last week, 
18% targets forever run and then

1407
01:27:48,410 --> 01:27:55,250
2.3, yeah, yards per at run. 
So like that's that's more than 

1408
01:27:55,250 --> 01:27:57,250
signs of life. 
That's like, oh, they involve 

1409
01:27:57,250 --> 01:28:00,010
them and like you said, he's 
good like this. 

1410
01:28:00,010 --> 01:28:05,370
This is this is about as 
positive a week you could have 

1411
01:28:05,370 --> 01:28:10,410
gotten given the first couple. 
My The way I want to apply this 

1412
01:28:10,410 --> 01:28:13,250
information going forward is I 
still think it might take a 

1413
01:28:13,250 --> 01:28:15,610
while for us to get there with 
mayor. 

1414
01:28:16,570 --> 01:28:20,250
In best fall the In resurrection
prior to this week, I would not 

1415
01:28:20,250 --> 01:28:22,570
have drafted Michael Mayer, 
right I was. 

1416
01:28:22,570 --> 01:28:25,490
I was getting enough signal from
the Raiders and it's like, dude,

1417
01:28:25,490 --> 01:28:28,290
this guy's not ever going to be 
usable this season. 

1418
01:28:28,290 --> 01:28:33,400
Maybe one week, you know. 
But now this was enough signs of

1419
01:28:33,400 --> 01:28:37,320
life where I'm like, OK, I could
see this being kind of a slow 

1420
01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:40,320
burn over the course of the 
season where he's earning more 

1421
01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:43,400
and more playing time in an 
offense where it's really 

1422
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:46,560
concentrated. 
And so if he works his way into 

1423
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:50,400
that offense where it's hey, we 
passed the three guys and three 

1424
01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:54,440
guys only it's Devante Adams, 
Jacoby Myers and Michael Mayer. 

1425
01:28:54,560 --> 01:28:57,920
And those are the guys that 
received passes, then I'm all of

1426
01:28:57,920 --> 01:29:00,120
a sudden very interested. 
So. 

1427
01:29:00,730 --> 01:29:04,370
He's he's back to life for me in
a resurrection draft. 

1428
01:29:05,730 --> 01:29:09,890
You know in the weird instances 
where the Raiders make the 

1429
01:29:09,930 --> 01:29:12,330
playoffs. 
I I could maybe. 

1430
01:29:12,890 --> 01:29:14,730
No, I'm never. 
I'm literally never taking him 

1431
01:29:14,730 --> 01:29:17,810
as like a late round playoff 
basketball dart throw because 

1432
01:29:17,810 --> 01:29:19,410
I'm literally only doing not 
right. 

1433
01:29:19,450 --> 01:29:21,290
Raiders are doing the Super Bowl
you know. 

1434
01:29:21,330 --> 01:29:24,890
But yeah. 
Anyway though Michael Mayer back

1435
01:29:24,890 --> 01:29:26,570
to life. 
Definitely worth talking about. 

1436
01:29:26,570 --> 01:29:30,260
The other one is Noah Gray. 
Just because of the Travis 

1437
01:29:30,260 --> 01:29:36,020
Kelsey injury, Kelsey came back 
into the game, I'm sure he got 

1438
01:29:36,100 --> 01:29:39,420
all of the best painkillers to 
be able to do that because that 

1439
01:29:39,420 --> 01:29:42,940
ankle sprain, dude, it looked 
like that shit hurt. 

1440
01:29:43,020 --> 01:29:46,420
The way the way he went down and
like everyone who's ever 

1441
01:29:46,420 --> 01:29:49,300
sprained that ankle bad, dude, 
everyone who's sprained their 

1442
01:29:49,300 --> 01:29:53,340
ankle bad before knows like, Oh 
my gosh, that one sucked like 

1443
01:29:53,740 --> 01:29:56,220
you, you know, I mean, with how 
frustrated he was on the 

1444
01:29:56,220 --> 01:29:57,980
sideline, like, yeah, that one 
hurt. 

1445
01:29:59,190 --> 01:30:02,430
And and you hear guys talk about
like, Oh yeah, with the 

1446
01:30:02,430 --> 01:30:04,990
adrenaline and the painkillers, 
like you're able to come back 

1447
01:30:04,990 --> 01:30:08,990
one week, but a lot of the times
the next week, like it's a it's 

1448
01:30:08,990 --> 01:30:12,110
a lot harder to go. 
So it's a short week. 

1449
01:30:12,150 --> 01:30:15,070
We'll we'll find out tomorrow. 
It sounds like he's trending 

1450
01:30:15,070 --> 01:30:16,590
towards playing. 
He's practicing. 

1451
01:30:16,950 --> 01:30:19,550
I wouldn't be surprised if we 
see more Noah Gray. 

1452
01:30:19,990 --> 01:30:24,630
And I would just kind of keep a 
eye on Noah Gray in the event 

1453
01:30:24,630 --> 01:30:27,110
that, you know, Kelsey 
reaggregates the ankle or 

1454
01:30:27,110 --> 01:30:29,810
something. 
Noah Gray becomes very 

1455
01:30:29,810 --> 01:30:32,570
interesting. 
So that was those are the two on

1456
01:30:32,570 --> 01:30:34,370
my radar. 
Was there anyone else that you 

1457
01:30:34,370 --> 01:30:38,810
wanted to talk about or any 
anything to add on Noah Gray and

1458
01:30:39,210 --> 01:30:43,810
the only the only I guess 
worried that I would have is 

1459
01:30:43,810 --> 01:30:49,690
that when Kelsey was out week 
one it did seem like so I I was 

1460
01:30:49,690 --> 01:30:52,330
watching. 
I remember watching the week one

1461
01:30:52,330 --> 01:30:56,970
game in Vegas and every time a 
white tight end for the Chiefs 

1462
01:30:56,970 --> 01:31:00,290
caught the ball I just assumed 
that it was Noah Gray. 

1463
01:31:01,130 --> 01:31:06,050
And then I looked at the I 
looked at the the the the box 

1464
01:31:06,050 --> 01:31:08,970
score and and there was the 
other guy. 

1465
01:31:08,970 --> 01:31:12,170
It was like almost like split. 
Even though Noah Gray was 

1466
01:31:12,170 --> 01:31:15,970
running the roots the other guy 
was like getting almost half the

1467
01:31:15,970 --> 01:31:21,810
targets. 
I I, I'm, I'm drawing a blank on

1468
01:31:21,850 --> 01:31:29,180
a on that other guy's name. 
Blake Bell, Blake Bell seem to 

1469
01:31:29,180 --> 01:31:33,340
be getting a decent amount, so I
guess my concern would be that 

1470
01:31:33,340 --> 01:31:41,140
even even if Kelsey goes down 
that maybe it's harder for a 

1471
01:31:41,140 --> 01:31:44,500
grade to sort of like 
consolidate the targets even 

1472
01:31:44,500 --> 01:31:48,460
with Kelsey down. 
But again, it's tight end so 

1473
01:31:50,020 --> 01:31:54,100
it's not like you need Kelsey 
usage to to pay off. 

1474
01:31:54,620 --> 01:31:56,300
Like could still be very 
interesting. 

1475
01:31:57,180 --> 01:32:00,260
Yeah, yeah, I just yeah. 
It was worth mentioning with the

1476
01:32:00,260 --> 01:32:02,020
Kelsey injury but that is a good
point. 

1477
01:32:02,020 --> 01:32:05,420
It's not a it's not a guaranteed
sure thing that Noah Gray is 

1478
01:32:05,420 --> 01:32:08,140
gonna be, you know, he's 
certainly not gonna be Travis 

1479
01:32:08,140 --> 01:32:10,300
Kelsey. 
But he could he could be 

1480
01:32:10,300 --> 01:32:12,860
somewhat usable. 
But yeah, for sure. 

1481
01:32:13,620 --> 01:32:17,900
And so yeah, let's like you 
alluded to, let's, let's move on

1482
01:32:18,460 --> 01:32:26,490
to the wide receiver section and
looks like we have, we we have 

1483
01:32:26,490 --> 01:32:30,610
pretty clearly like the the, the
halves part of the chart and 

1484
01:32:30,610 --> 01:32:36,610
then like a big cluster in the 
middle and that we have the we 

1485
01:32:36,610 --> 01:32:40,250
have the the what you call it 
the cardio route runners. 

1486
01:32:40,250 --> 01:32:42,770
So and I guess I'll explain this
chart again. 

1487
01:32:42,930 --> 01:32:47,090
So we've got weighted targets 
per out run and this is sort of 

1488
01:32:47,090 --> 01:32:50,650
like just targets per out run, 
but weighted towards down the 

1489
01:32:50,650 --> 01:32:53,710
field throws. 
And so guys who get a high 

1490
01:32:53,710 --> 01:32:58,630
percentage of targets and down 
the field are on the right side.

1491
01:32:59,190 --> 01:33:04,110
And then guys who either don't 
get targeted enough or their 

1492
01:33:04,110 --> 01:33:07,350
targets are too close to the 
line of scrimmage down to the 

1493
01:33:07,350 --> 01:33:10,430
left. 
And then just because we do want

1494
01:33:10,430 --> 01:33:14,870
fantasy points and we have that 
on the on the the vertical axis 

1495
01:33:15,310 --> 01:33:18,870
and then the color of the dot 
also corresponds to their route 

1496
01:33:18,870 --> 01:33:23,490
share. 
When I when I put the shirt 

1497
01:33:23,490 --> 01:33:26,090
together, there's a couple 
things that I look at. 

1498
01:33:26,090 --> 01:33:29,770
It's first, first thing, usually
there's not a ton of guys in 

1499
01:33:29,770 --> 01:33:33,170
this top left quadrant, but 
these are the regression 

1500
01:33:33,170 --> 01:33:35,650
candidates, right? 
Guys scoring a lot of fantasy 

1501
01:33:35,650 --> 01:33:41,890
points on, you know, low, low, 
low weighted targets per route 

1502
01:33:41,890 --> 01:33:45,280
run. 
And so here we've got Adam 

1503
01:33:45,280 --> 01:33:47,280
Thielen and Gabe Davis living 
here. 

1504
01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:50,800
Gabe Davis makes a ton of sense.
We saw you know he he's just 

1505
01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:54,400
getting there on it's hey, he 
gets a couple deep targets every

1506
01:33:54,400 --> 01:33:57,040
once in a while or like an end 
zone target here and there. 

1507
01:33:58,240 --> 01:33:59,560
And this, this week it was 
funny. 

1508
01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:03,480
He got a a pass interference 
caller, not a pass. 

1509
01:34:03,480 --> 01:34:06,720
He got an offensive penalty that
called, called back a touchdown,

1510
01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:10,440
and then on the very next play, 
he got the touchdown anyway. 

1511
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:13,680
But I I would expect, you know 
this is a good week for Gabe 

1512
01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:16,520
Davis. 
I would expect him to probably 

1513
01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:19,920
come in with a little bit lower 
fantasy points per game. 

1514
01:34:20,240 --> 01:34:24,160
Adam Thielen I think is like 
such a clear sell high candidate

1515
01:34:24,800 --> 01:34:29,320
#1 because there's just no 
chance that this guy is going to

1516
01:34:29,320 --> 01:34:32,880
keep scoring touchdowns like 
he's just getting these garbage 

1517
01:34:32,880 --> 01:34:38,000
time touchdowns and like all of 
just an insane amount of targets

1518
01:34:38,440 --> 01:34:40,030
I. 
Right. 

1519
01:34:40,030 --> 01:34:44,590
Right now we're seeing like the 
right tail outcomes for Adam 

1520
01:34:44,590 --> 01:34:47,990
Thielen. 
And when you get an actual like 

1521
01:34:48,430 --> 01:34:51,870
mean outcome for Adam Thielen, 
which is like, what do you 

1522
01:34:51,870 --> 01:34:57,110
think, 7 targets for five 
receptions and 58 yards, no 

1523
01:34:57,110 --> 01:35:00,230
touchdown, Like you're not 
pleased, you know? 

1524
01:35:00,550 --> 01:35:05,030
And so if you can trick anyone 
into buying your Adam Thielen 

1525
01:35:05,030 --> 01:35:07,430
lemons, you should be offloading
them. 

1526
01:35:08,920 --> 01:35:11,960
But that was that was in the 
regression category. 

1527
01:35:11,960 --> 01:35:18,840
Any any guys to add in that 
category for you and so who else

1528
01:35:18,840 --> 01:35:26,800
is there and you know I think 
honestly I think at this stage 

1529
01:35:27,360 --> 01:35:31,280
that's probably the strongest 
sort of like regression shout I 

1530
01:35:31,280 --> 01:35:37,480
think and it I mean it is 
interesting seeing Adam Teelin 

1531
01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:42,610
play well like he's obviously 
not he's not getting targets 

1532
01:35:42,610 --> 01:35:47,690
that are like really down the 
field and but his his yard for 

1533
01:35:47,690 --> 01:35:52,810
reception are not awful they're 
like around he's getting around 

1534
01:35:52,810 --> 01:35:58,290
10 yards for reception this 
fight and his a dot being around

1535
01:35:58,290 --> 01:36:05,490
let's say 7. 
So it's like it's it's a bit 

1536
01:36:05,850 --> 01:36:09,470
interesting that he's like he's 
playing good, I don't feel in 

1537
01:36:09,470 --> 01:36:14,550
football. 
And then I I do remember when he

1538
01:36:14,550 --> 01:36:17,270
was younger, it felt like every 
week he can't score this many 

1539
01:36:17,270 --> 01:36:20,550
touchdowns every week and then I
don't feel and scores another 

1540
01:36:20,550 --> 01:36:26,070
touchdown. 
And so I mean there's part of me

1541
01:36:26,070 --> 01:36:28,830
that's sort of like especially 
at the price that you were 

1542
01:36:28,830 --> 01:36:34,830
getting before that maybe was 
too quick to to bury him like 

1543
01:36:35,350 --> 01:36:39,510
that. 
Maybe he he clearly does have 

1544
01:36:39,510 --> 01:36:45,590
some life left in him and where 
he's like somewhat A viable best

1545
01:36:45,590 --> 01:36:50,430
ball player and but at the same 
time like you said you're you're

1546
01:36:50,430 --> 01:36:54,790
clearly getting the the best 
Adam tealing games you can and 

1547
01:36:54,790 --> 01:36:59,630
like as an older player like the
weeks one through 5 those are 

1548
01:36:59,750 --> 01:37:02,310
those are almost always going to
be the best weeks for a player 

1549
01:37:02,310 --> 01:37:05,860
like that. 
Like, you're the chances that 

1550
01:37:05,860 --> 01:37:08,820
you get this kind of play from 
him down the playoff stretch. 

1551
01:37:09,340 --> 01:37:11,020
Really ten. 
Really 10? 

1552
01:37:11,820 --> 01:37:16,620
And and that was always my point
with Adam Thielen, I I have very

1553
01:37:16,620 --> 01:37:20,020
little to no Adam Thielen. 
I might have a full fate on him 

1554
01:37:20,020 --> 01:37:24,620
in BBM and the traditional 
format season long type 

1555
01:37:24,620 --> 01:37:30,300
tournaments because I don't care
about your week one through 4 

1556
01:37:30,300 --> 01:37:32,500
points, just going in the sixth 
round. 

1557
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:35,960
Yeah that's I'm, I'm fully out. 
But you know where I did draft 

1558
01:37:35,960 --> 01:37:37,760
Adam Thielen. 
I drafted him as some weekly 

1559
01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:41,360
winners teams because I was like
you know what I've got a team 

1560
01:37:41,360 --> 01:37:44,280
that's really well constructed 
for Week 6. 

1561
01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:46,960
Let's let's throw a little Adam 
Thielen on there. 

1562
01:37:46,960 --> 01:37:48,280
Got it. 
Got a team where I've got a 

1563
01:37:48,280 --> 01:37:51,440
bunch of bringbacks for Week 3. 
Let's throw an Adam Thielen 

1564
01:37:51,440 --> 01:37:54,320
share in there. 
Why not Because then I can't 

1565
01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:56,440
your your production does 
matter. 

1566
01:37:56,440 --> 01:37:59,000
That is all the money is in this
week now. 

1567
01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:02,400
So I can use Adam Thielen. 
So that's kind of my my stance 

1568
01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:04,720
on it. 
And if Adam Thielen does this 

1569
01:38:04,720 --> 01:38:08,360
the whole season and it's the 
fantasy playoffs and I just get 

1570
01:38:08,360 --> 01:38:12,640
buried by having no Adam Thielen
Mia Culpa, you know hey that 

1571
01:38:12,640 --> 01:38:14,880
one's on me right? 
I I shouldn't shouldn't have 

1572
01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:20,520
read them off. 
But I I'm not feeling as as 

1573
01:38:20,520 --> 01:38:26,240
scared as I I if you'd told me, 
you know, hey, by you know Week 

1574
01:38:26,600 --> 01:38:31,760
5 Adam Thielen is going to have,
you know multiple 30 point 

1575
01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:35,710
games. 
I I would feel like I'd probably

1576
01:38:35,710 --> 01:38:38,590
be pretty scared of that, but 
honestly, I'm not. 

1577
01:38:38,750 --> 01:38:41,910
I I just feel like it's not that
sustainable. 

1578
01:38:42,710 --> 01:38:46,350
The other guy to transition into
another one who's like a 

1579
01:38:46,350 --> 01:38:49,190
borderline regression candidate.
It's just DJ Moore. 

1580
01:38:49,190 --> 01:38:52,390
And it's not to say the DJ Moore
is going to be bad, but it's to 

1581
01:38:52,390 --> 01:38:55,590
say that the amount of fantasy 
points per game DJ Moore has 

1582
01:38:55,590 --> 01:38:58,940
been scoring. 
Is a lot relative to his 

1583
01:38:58,940 --> 01:39:01,940
weighted targets per route run. 
I would expect him to be more, 

1584
01:39:02,180 --> 01:39:05,260
you know, You know what makes a 
ton of sense to me is like DJ 

1585
01:39:05,260 --> 01:39:10,340
Moore as like a Debo Samuelish 
kind of player and that he's 

1586
01:39:10,340 --> 01:39:13,620
doing so much, you know, yards 
after catch. 

1587
01:39:13,620 --> 01:39:18,060
And DJ Moore I think is a better
wide receiver than Debo. 

1588
01:39:18,260 --> 01:39:20,340
But they're both awesome 
football players. 

1589
01:39:20,340 --> 01:39:23,900
They're both of those geysers. 
Absolute beasts like can really 

1590
01:39:23,900 --> 01:39:28,040
make their hay after the catch. 
And so I think they're kind of a

1591
01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:31,600
similarish archetype. 
I do think DJ Moore's probably 

1592
01:39:31,600 --> 01:39:34,800
got the slight edge in 
receiving, but maybe do offsets 

1593
01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:36,960
that with his work that he gets 
in the running game. 

1594
01:39:37,400 --> 01:39:40,920
And so I would expect those 
players to come in a little 

1595
01:39:40,920 --> 01:39:42,480
closer to each other on the 
chart. 

1596
01:39:42,480 --> 01:39:44,320
So that's a that's a regression 
candidate. 

1597
01:39:44,560 --> 01:39:47,040
Again, not saying DJ Moore's 
gonna be bad, but just saying 

1598
01:39:47,040 --> 01:39:49,640
like, that's a guy that's kind 
of looking like a potential 

1599
01:39:49,640 --> 01:39:53,950
outlier. 
The other guy that I think it 

1600
01:39:54,070 --> 01:39:56,470
they're they're in a similar 
weighted targets per route run 

1601
01:39:56,470 --> 01:40:00,070
category but it looks like a guy
that could be ascending is say 

1602
01:40:00,070 --> 01:40:04,630
Flowers we saw there's there's a
couple reasons I feel like say 

1603
01:40:04,630 --> 01:40:09,390
Flowers is really interesting #1
all of the other Ravens I mean 

1604
01:40:09,390 --> 01:40:12,710
say Flowers included all of the 
Ravens pass catchers decided 

1605
01:40:12,710 --> 01:40:17,430
that they totally forgot how to 
catch a football and so it's 

1606
01:40:17,430 --> 01:40:20,450
like the the. 
Opportunity is there for the 

1607
01:40:20,450 --> 01:40:21,850
taking. 
It's whoever. 

1608
01:40:21,850 --> 01:40:25,890
Whoever emerges as like a 
reliable weapon could really 

1609
01:40:25,890 --> 01:40:30,330
consolidate some stuff there. 
And they finally saw some deeper

1610
01:40:30,330 --> 01:40:32,490
targets. 
He actually got some decent air 

1611
01:40:32,490 --> 01:40:37,450
yards on a was it a 11 target 
day A 13 He. 

1612
01:40:37,490 --> 01:40:40,610
He got a substantial number of 
targets this week. 

1613
01:40:41,330 --> 01:40:44,050
Pretty interested in day. 
Flowers could see him. 

1614
01:40:44,930 --> 01:40:48,450
He looks like the classic rookie
profile where his production's 

1615
01:40:48,450 --> 01:40:50,410
gonna increase as the season 
goes on. 

1616
01:40:50,730 --> 01:40:52,650
Really, really excited about Zay
Flowers. 

1617
01:40:52,650 --> 01:40:54,450
He looks like he could be a big 
hit. 

1618
01:40:56,370 --> 01:41:00,370
And yeah, Zay Flowers and 
definitely, definitely agree 

1619
01:41:00,370 --> 01:41:05,770
there. 
And I think what might help him 

1620
01:41:05,770 --> 01:41:09,130
a bit too is that is all the 
drops that you had from the 

1621
01:41:09,170 --> 01:41:14,000
other receivers, whereas. 
Maybe yeah. 

1622
01:41:14,200 --> 01:41:19,360
Yeah maybe if he if he's able to
sort of like continue to play 

1623
01:41:19,360 --> 01:41:24,400
well and and like become a 
trusted receiver like you 

1624
01:41:24,400 --> 01:41:28,560
definitely have strong paths 
here where it's it's like as as 

1625
01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:33,160
he develops and he is and he 
emerges that like OK that we 

1626
01:41:33,160 --> 01:41:37,200
have to we have to run our 
passing offense through Marc 

1627
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:41,960
Andrews and Zay Flowers. 
Like we just have to do it and. 

1628
01:41:44,700 --> 01:41:50,060
I I I think I think that makes a
lot of sense and do you I guess 

1629
01:41:50,060 --> 01:41:54,380
my my question there is are are 
are you and leaving Bateman for 

1630
01:41:54,380 --> 01:41:58,060
dead. 
I don't want to. 

1631
01:41:58,100 --> 01:42:03,060
I think he's a good player that 
that drop was so egregious so 

1632
01:42:03,060 --> 01:42:06,900
and it really kind of seems like
the Ravens don't think he's a 

1633
01:42:06,900 --> 01:42:10,540
good player right. 
I I don't know man. 

1634
01:42:10,660 --> 01:42:15,180
I I gotta say, there's still a 
little bit there. 

1635
01:42:15,180 --> 01:42:19,260
There's probably bag defending, 
but there's a little bit in my 

1636
01:42:19,260 --> 01:42:23,140
brain where I'm just like he'd 
have like no time with this 

1637
01:42:23,140 --> 01:42:28,060
offense in the offseason. 
It's a new system like and and 

1638
01:42:28,060 --> 01:42:32,140
really like Bateman hasn't 
played a ton of actual NFL 

1639
01:42:32,140 --> 01:42:33,620
games. 
You know he's been injured so 

1640
01:42:33,620 --> 01:42:36,380
much. 
So there's there's a little bit 

1641
01:42:36,380 --> 01:42:39,950
of me that's trying to like 
rationalized it or justified as 

1642
01:42:39,950 --> 01:42:46,510
like maybe we get that kind of 
typical rookie production change

1643
01:42:46,510 --> 01:42:49,270
over the course of the season 
that you see with rookies where 

1644
01:42:49,270 --> 01:42:52,030
their production's gonna 
increase as the season goes on. 

1645
01:42:52,510 --> 01:42:56,150
Maybe we see that with Bateman. 
That's really my only hope for 

1646
01:42:56,150 --> 01:43:01,010
Bateman, but man, it looks 
pretty bleak. 

1647
01:43:01,010 --> 01:43:04,170
The the, I guess the other best 
thing you could say for him is 

1648
01:43:04,450 --> 01:43:06,290
just like we talked about, tons 
of drops. 

1649
01:43:06,290 --> 01:43:09,330
No one's really like established
themselves as the dominant 

1650
01:43:09,330 --> 01:43:11,530
option. 
All those a flowers looks like 

1651
01:43:11,530 --> 01:43:14,570
he's already got, you know, he's
got a head start on the other 

1652
01:43:14,570 --> 01:43:17,050
receiving options there if if 
you had to. 

1653
01:43:17,410 --> 01:43:21,170
If I had to put money on it, I'd
say it ends up being a pretty 

1654
01:43:21,250 --> 01:43:25,780
concentrated passing tree where 
it's Andrews Flowers and then 

1655
01:43:26,180 --> 01:43:30,980
whatever Aguilar Bateman OBJ 
like mix in for every week is 

1656
01:43:30,980 --> 01:43:34,820
purely unusable in fantasy. 
It's just it's only there to 

1657
01:43:34,820 --> 01:43:38,260
annoy you as the Zay flowers or 
Mark Andrews owner, so. 

1658
01:43:40,780 --> 01:43:43,500
Yeah, yeah. 
Makes yeah, makes sense for 

1659
01:43:43,500 --> 01:43:46,100
sure. 
And I think that that is that is

1660
01:43:46,100 --> 01:43:50,740
a tough one to to talk about as 
well and just because. 

1661
01:43:52,160 --> 01:43:54,960
It's clearly like it's clearly 
an offense where like when 

1662
01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:59,600
things click like there there's 
gonna be fireworks for sure and 

1663
01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:03,000
just because it's it's got Lamar
Jackson and they're trying to 

1664
01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:09,800
pass more But when you I guess 
when you haven't had the points 

1665
01:44:09,800 --> 01:44:15,520
from really anyone option and it
it's super hard to like be like 

1666
01:44:15,520 --> 01:44:19,920
confident but definitely agree 
fire and away the Zayflower is 

1667
01:44:20,080 --> 01:44:25,650
is is like sort of like. 
Easily the best bet to where to 

1668
01:44:25,650 --> 01:44:30,570
be the this sort of like 
emergence and so you pick 61 in 

1669
01:44:30,570 --> 01:44:34,090
a resurrection and feel like 
there's a lot of ways for you to

1670
01:44:34,090 --> 01:44:37,570
get paid off like and I want to 
say paid off not just like 

1671
01:44:38,450 --> 01:44:43,490
perform a DP like there's a lot 
of ways for that to be for zay 

1672
01:44:43,490 --> 01:44:48,530
flowers to be like at just a 
total complete Zamdong smash at 

1673
01:44:48,530 --> 01:44:50,430
that peak. 
Yeah six. 

1674
01:44:50,470 --> 01:44:53,710
I I was hoping you would say 
later because I wanna be able to

1675
01:44:53,710 --> 01:44:57,630
just like feel like OK cool. 
It's 100% say flowers that's the

1676
01:44:57,630 --> 01:45:00,110
way to play it. 
So I mean pick 61 is still a 

1677
01:45:00,110 --> 01:45:04,710
good price like you you probably
get a lot of wins in there but I

1678
01:45:04,710 --> 01:45:08,230
was I was hoping you were gonna 
say something like 70 but that's

1679
01:45:08,670 --> 01:45:11,350
I mean dude what's the 
difference between 61 and 70 

1680
01:45:11,390 --> 01:45:14,510
Like I'm it's just the it's the 
value hound in me. 

1681
01:45:16,450 --> 01:45:19,610
I I had a couple guys that I 
wanna I wanna like rapid fire 

1682
01:45:19,610 --> 01:45:22,570
here where it wasn't like a huge
change but more just like 

1683
01:45:22,570 --> 01:45:27,210
confirming A trend or so Puka 
with Cooper cut back we got 

1684
01:45:27,210 --> 01:45:30,850
enough information that Puka is 
gonna be still heavily involved 

1685
01:45:30,850 --> 01:45:34,090
in the offense for people that 
got puka on waivers for people 

1686
01:45:34,090 --> 01:45:37,330
that drafted Puka looking like 
an enormous win. 

1687
01:45:37,330 --> 01:45:41,290
It's just like that's the Robert
Woods role in this offense and 

1688
01:45:41,290 --> 01:45:46,550
it's it's gotta be here to stay.
So great great news for Puka. 

1689
01:45:46,910 --> 01:45:50,990
I I know that there were some 
people that were thinking that 

1690
01:45:50,990 --> 01:45:55,630
this week you might start to see
him lose a lot of work with cut 

1691
01:45:55,630 --> 01:45:59,390
back but it just looks like it's
it's the clear one and two and 

1692
01:45:59,390 --> 01:46:03,510
then 22 we'll talk about later 
he shows up on the later charts 

1693
01:46:03,510 --> 01:46:08,630
but so Puka was was one I wanted
to hit on the other one Jacoby 

1694
01:46:08,630 --> 01:46:12,830
Myers just we we talked about it
briefly the Raiders offense so 

1695
01:46:12,830 --> 01:46:17,640
so concentrated Jacoby looks 
like a smash where he was going 

1696
01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:24,160
all summer in basketball 
fantastic pick just yeah this 

1697
01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:29,240
this reminds me of the when you 
have the Vikings with Steph 

1698
01:46:29,240 --> 01:46:32,720
Diggs and Adam Thielen whereas 
like there are two players that 

1699
01:46:32,800 --> 01:46:36,000
catch passes on this NFL 
football team and these are them

1700
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:39,160
like that's it here for the 
Raiders it's Devante Adams it's 

1701
01:46:39,160 --> 01:46:45,070
Jacoby Myers and man that's 
that's super appealing you love 

1702
01:46:45,070 --> 01:46:48,030
when it often gets that 
concentrated it just gets so 

1703
01:46:48,070 --> 01:46:51,350
easy to play it that way so that
would that would be 1 where I 

1704
01:46:51,350 --> 01:46:53,950
bet you bet you Jimmy G's 
probably I mean Jimmy G doesn't 

1705
01:46:53,950 --> 01:46:58,470
look great but for for best ball
just with the prices of 

1706
01:46:58,470 --> 01:47:02,870
quarterbacks and I mean I don't 
know about you when I'm looking 

1707
01:47:02,870 --> 01:47:05,110
at a lot of my best ball teams 
some of my best teams are the 

1708
01:47:05,110 --> 01:47:08,990
full punt QB teams where I've 
just got certified studs 

1709
01:47:09,030 --> 01:47:12,670
everywhere but QB but I'm 
getting right 17 to 20 points 

1710
01:47:12,670 --> 01:47:18,030
from Jimmy G and you know so owl
gives me a spike week here and 

1711
01:47:18,030 --> 01:47:21,350
there so I'm assuming Jimmy G 
still goes really late in 

1712
01:47:21,350 --> 01:47:27,270
resurrection And let me let me 
tell you I do think it's 

1713
01:47:27,270 --> 01:47:31,750
interesting where so Jimmy G 
goes to pick 192. 

1714
01:47:31,750 --> 01:47:35,310
Ohh yeah baby, load it up. 
Load if you're If you're 

1715
01:47:35,310 --> 01:47:37,790
drafting resurrection, I'm 
assuming where? 

1716
01:47:37,830 --> 01:47:41,480
Where's Jacoby at now? 
Gotta be in the 50s. 

1717
01:47:44,000 --> 01:47:47,920
So he's still at 81. 
Oh my God, if you're drafting 

1718
01:47:47,920 --> 01:47:51,480
Resurrection and you don't have 
100% Jacobi Meyers and Jimmy G, 

1719
01:47:51,480 --> 01:47:54,720
you're playing the game wrong. 
Like, normally I'm not gonna be 

1720
01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:58,960
100% of a guy thing, but like, 
the market is not doing that 

1721
01:47:58,960 --> 01:48:01,280
correctly. 
It's it's so concentrated. 

1722
01:48:01,280 --> 01:48:04,080
It's so good for best fall when 
you get something like this, 

1723
01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:07,880
Like literally if. 
Levante Adams is still picked 

1724
01:48:07,920 --> 01:48:10,010
13. 
So if you're listening to this 

1725
01:48:10,010 --> 01:48:13,570
right now, fire up as many 
resurrection drafts as you can. 

1726
01:48:13,890 --> 01:48:16,930
Queue up the Raiders players and
just make sure you don't auto 

1727
01:48:16,930 --> 01:48:19,890
draft them too early and just 
load it up baby. 

1728
01:48:19,890 --> 01:48:22,770
Like pack the bags, fill them 
all the way to the brim. 

1729
01:48:22,850 --> 01:48:26,690
That's that's gonna make me 
draft resurrection teams. 

1730
01:48:26,770 --> 01:48:30,210
Literally when we finish the 
show I'm gonna go, I'm gonna get

1731
01:48:30,210 --> 01:48:33,370
in bed and fire up like 20 
Resurrection drafts and just 

1732
01:48:33,370 --> 01:48:35,970
multi table it and do 20 Raiders
stacks. 

1733
01:48:36,690 --> 01:48:40,850
So normally when you when we 
were saying goodbye after after 

1734
01:48:40,850 --> 01:48:43,130
the show, you tell me I'm gonna 
make some dinner so you're gonna

1735
01:48:43,130 --> 01:48:45,930
be eating up some some Raider 
sucks. 

1736
01:48:46,410 --> 01:48:48,970
Yeah, we're we're literally 
skipping dinner to draft 

1737
01:48:48,970 --> 01:48:54,650
Raiders. 
Probably not too interested in 

1738
01:48:54,650 --> 01:48:56,170
Josh. 
Are you interested in Josh 

1739
01:48:56,170 --> 01:48:58,770
Jacobs up Pick 25. 
I know you covered it. 

1740
01:48:58,770 --> 01:49:03,540
Runway it's it's one where 
knowing the price of the rest of

1741
01:49:03,540 --> 01:49:07,420
the offense, I want that in my 
team stack. 

1742
01:49:07,420 --> 01:49:10,540
I think running backs in team 
stacks are very valuable and so 

1743
01:49:10,540 --> 01:49:13,220
the way that I will play it is 
the majority of my Raiders 

1744
01:49:13,220 --> 01:49:15,220
stacks wouldn't have Josh 
Jacobs. 

1745
01:49:15,460 --> 01:49:20,100
But the the stacks where Josh 
Jacobs falls past ADP 

1746
01:49:20,100 --> 01:49:25,140
significantly 25 gross. 
So there's probably. 

1747
01:49:25,140 --> 01:49:29,140
Well, just to just to think true
it a bit, if Adams is at the end

1748
01:49:29,140 --> 01:49:34,380
of the first start of the 
second, then you the only way 

1749
01:49:34,380 --> 01:49:38,140
you would get him is if you fail
to the end of the third. 

1750
01:49:38,500 --> 01:49:40,260
So that's and you would be 
interested there. 

1751
01:49:40,620 --> 01:49:44,140
Then then I would do it, yeah. 
So. 

1752
01:49:44,140 --> 01:49:46,020
So that's a pretty natural 
clean. 

1753
01:49:46,020 --> 01:49:48,780
Like, he's not gonna be in most 
of them, but maybe some. 

1754
01:49:49,400 --> 01:49:52,000
Yeah, I I love. 
I love when the game gives you 

1755
01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:53,840
that. 
Kind of like, governor on your 

1756
01:49:53,840 --> 01:49:58,000
frequencies to do things. 
Yeah, that. 

1757
01:49:58,080 --> 01:50:02,960
I do think that's appealing. 
I do think we've had, we've had 

1758
01:50:02,960 --> 01:50:08,040
some some people that pretty 
upset to see Datsun in the 

1759
01:50:08,040 --> 01:50:12,080
bottom part of the chart and I 
think I think we we have 

1760
01:50:12,080 --> 01:50:16,160
actually covered the the 
commander situation in previous 

1761
01:50:16,160 --> 01:50:18,600
weeks, but just maybe briefly 
touch on it. 

1762
01:50:19,160 --> 01:50:25,880
And so here's that well, 11 
problem for Dotson on this chart

1763
01:50:25,880 --> 01:50:30,160
is that his a dot is not the 
It's not the highest. 

1764
01:50:30,680 --> 01:50:43,040
And so let me just and his 
average depth of target has been

1765
01:50:44,160 --> 01:50:48,310
the highest has been his 10.3. 
And he's had some weeks with 

1766
01:50:48,430 --> 01:50:53,590
87.3 and then 10 and 10. 
So he hasn't really been 

1767
01:50:53,830 --> 01:50:58,830
targeted down the field and then
his target correct run, the base

1768
01:50:58,830 --> 01:51:00,590
number hasn't been too great 
either. 

1769
01:51:00,910 --> 01:51:06,230
So it's been 18 percent, 10%, 
eleven percent, 21 percent, 9%, 

1770
01:51:06,590 --> 01:51:12,350
so sort of averaging out at 14% 
targets per at run and it does 

1771
01:51:12,350 --> 01:51:16,110
feel like the the commanders are
they spread the ball out too 

1772
01:51:16,110 --> 01:51:19,020
much. 
And I know that sort of like 

1773
01:51:19,020 --> 01:51:24,940
sharp people have called out for
and listen it's Datsun, he needs

1774
01:51:24,940 --> 01:51:26,500
to like he's one of your best 
players. 

1775
01:51:26,500 --> 01:51:28,980
Him and Terry McCarron, they 
they need to get the ball more 

1776
01:51:29,540 --> 01:51:34,380
and but I guess this this chart 
is just telling us that it it it

1777
01:51:34,380 --> 01:51:38,500
hasn't been like that and super 
disappointing just especially 

1778
01:51:38,500 --> 01:51:43,260
with like his late surge in a 
DP, like definitely really 

1779
01:51:43,260 --> 01:51:45,890
disappointing. 
Yeah, let me yeah, let me check 

1780
01:51:45,890 --> 01:51:52,650
out Dawson's there ATP. 
So he's now at the end of the 

1781
01:51:52,650 --> 01:51:56,930
tenth round, so, so pretty close
to Logan Thomas. 

1782
01:51:56,930 --> 01:52:01,010
And I was gonna say I like just 
straight up. 

1783
01:52:01,010 --> 01:52:03,770
I think I prefer Logan Thomas 
for the tight end eligibility. 

1784
01:52:03,770 --> 01:52:08,250
I don't think they're super 
different in what they get in 

1785
01:52:08,250 --> 01:52:12,090
this offense, and so give me the
guy with tight end eligibility. 

1786
01:52:13,840 --> 01:52:15,760
Right. 
They they're they're clearly 

1787
01:52:15,760 --> 01:52:19,320
prioritizing Logan Thomas over 
Dotson. 

1788
01:52:19,440 --> 01:52:21,320
Super disappointing. 
But. 

1789
01:52:21,320 --> 01:52:26,080
And I, I and I think what's also
interesting is in the context of

1790
01:52:26,080 --> 01:52:30,760
like he wasn't a Dustin wasn't a
phenomenal prospect either where

1791
01:52:30,760 --> 01:52:37,560
like he he was sort of behind 
who's the who's the Broncos slot

1792
01:52:37,560 --> 01:52:40,920
receiver, the fast slot receiver
that we used to be excited 

1793
01:52:40,920 --> 01:52:42,040
about. 
KJ Hammer. 

1794
01:52:42,160 --> 01:52:46,750
Ohh KJ Hammer. 
KJ Hammer in Penn State and like

1795
01:52:47,350 --> 01:52:51,590
didn't really do too much and 
then when KJ Hammer graduated 

1796
01:52:51,950 --> 01:52:56,790
Danny had a big four year our 
our senior year when he was kind

1797
01:52:56,790 --> 01:53:00,230
of like a little bit older. 
And so like that's that's not 

1798
01:53:00,670 --> 01:53:05,110
like obviously a prospect 
profile isn't everything but 

1799
01:53:05,230 --> 01:53:09,910
maybe in the context of like you
know he hasn't that he hasn't 

1800
01:53:09,910 --> 01:53:13,190
been the best here that that is 
sort of like. 

1801
01:53:14,730 --> 01:53:17,850
Getting pretty concerning here 
in his second year. 

1802
01:53:18,210 --> 01:53:20,410
He's not at. 
He's not commanding targets. 

1803
01:53:21,530 --> 01:53:25,290
Yeah. 
And I I'm more in the camp of 

1804
01:53:25,290 --> 01:53:29,130
saying that this is the the new 
normal for Dotson. 

1805
01:53:29,130 --> 01:53:30,690
It's not. 
Yeah. 

1806
01:53:30,810 --> 01:53:34,450
I I'm not terribly optimistic 
for Dotson. 

1807
01:53:35,050 --> 01:53:38,410
The last one I wanted to hit on 
on this chart was just Michael 

1808
01:53:38,410 --> 01:53:43,090
Pittman with the Anthony 
Richardson injury, his situation

1809
01:53:43,090 --> 01:53:46,210
changing with Gardner Minshew at
quarterback. 

1810
01:53:46,690 --> 01:53:49,250
And do you think we're going to 
see more passing volume just 

1811
01:53:49,250 --> 01:53:52,290
simply because there's less 
place where they're going to be 

1812
01:53:52,290 --> 01:53:58,530
QB rushes? 
So I I think Pittman, I'm not 

1813
01:53:58,850 --> 01:54:03,890
not entirely sure if he ends up,
you know, moving farther down 

1814
01:54:03,890 --> 01:54:07,670
the chart on the way to targets 
per route run, but I do think 

1815
01:54:07,830 --> 01:54:10,950
you're going to get those 
targets to him slightly higher 

1816
01:54:10,950 --> 01:54:12,990
quality, right. 
I think it's fair to say that 

1817
01:54:13,110 --> 01:54:16,030
the issue is going to be more 
accurate than Anthony Richardson

1818
01:54:16,670 --> 01:54:18,270
from what we've seen from both 
of them. 

1819
01:54:18,790 --> 01:54:22,470
So I would expect that Pittman 
probably moves up a little bit 

1820
01:54:23,070 --> 01:54:25,510
as far as efficiency and his 
fantasy points per game. 

1821
01:54:25,510 --> 01:54:28,270
So that's one where he he's 
looking. 

1822
01:54:28,830 --> 01:54:32,150
Honestly, I remember during 
draft season drafting Michael 

1823
01:54:32,150 --> 01:54:36,270
Pittman always felt like, God, I
I had to click Michael Pittman 

1824
01:54:36,270 --> 01:54:39,430
because I I was going to get 
buried at wide receiver if I 

1825
01:54:39,430 --> 01:54:41,670
didn't. 
And I feel really yucky. 

1826
01:54:41,670 --> 01:54:45,710
I didn't want to do it. 
But he's, he's looking like he 

1827
01:54:45,710 --> 01:54:48,110
was pretty appropriately priced.
He might even be a little 

1828
01:54:48,110 --> 01:54:51,550
underpriced in the market. 
So that's that's looking like a 

1829
01:54:51,550 --> 01:54:53,750
W for all the Michael Pittman 
drafters out there. 

1830
01:54:54,550 --> 01:54:59,950
Right now he's he's middle of 
the 5th OK, which feels pretty. 

1831
01:55:00,770 --> 01:55:03,410
Not not not at not something 
that you can really take 

1832
01:55:03,410 --> 01:55:05,730
advantage of. 
No, I mean, I'm not certainly 

1833
01:55:05,730 --> 01:55:08,090
not hitting him as hard as I'm 
hitting Jacobi Meyers later 

1834
01:55:08,090 --> 01:55:09,650
tonight. 
Right. 

1835
01:55:10,530 --> 01:55:15,250
So, yeah, and that's let's move 
on to this sort of like the 

1836
01:55:15,250 --> 01:55:20,810
Inbetweener chart and this one 
where you've got guys who's 70 

1837
01:55:20,810 --> 01:55:26,690
to 85% roots run so same chart 
but just and players where 

1838
01:55:27,250 --> 01:55:31,430
they're not. 
Quite every down starters but 

1839
01:55:31,430 --> 01:55:34,750
they are like you you you see a 
bunch of pretty clear cut 

1840
01:55:34,750 --> 01:55:43,110
fantasy starters here and and I 
I guess it's sort of the the the

1841
01:55:43,230 --> 01:55:46,430
the thing that I noticed right 
away is that Terry Mccorin is 

1842
01:55:46,470 --> 01:55:52,670
also in this this part of the 
chart where he's all he's he's 

1843
01:55:52,670 --> 01:55:54,230
sort of like in the regression 
part. 

1844
01:55:54,920 --> 01:55:57,640
Where he hasn't just been, 
hasn't been getting the the the 

1845
01:55:57,640 --> 01:56:05,120
targets but he's just a little 
bit over 10 points a game and 

1846
01:56:06,920 --> 01:56:10,160
probably some of that, probably 
some of that is like he's he's 

1847
01:56:10,160 --> 01:56:12,480
in the the top bucket in in root
share. 

1848
01:56:13,440 --> 01:56:16,720
But it it it does call in. 
It does call in the question 

1849
01:56:16,720 --> 01:56:19,000
like what? 
What really are the commanders 

1850
01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:21,560
doing? 
And when they're not using their

1851
01:56:21,560 --> 01:56:25,800
wide receivers that much, yeah, 
I wanna, I want to look at 

1852
01:56:25,800 --> 01:56:30,320
McClure and I'm pulling him up 
here and the PFF data, I want to

1853
01:56:30,320 --> 01:56:37,800
say that part of it was in his 
in his weeks, the earlier weeks 

1854
01:56:37,800 --> 01:56:39,640
where he's coming back from the 
injury. 

1855
01:56:40,600 --> 01:56:42,320
Right. 
Yeah, yeah, that's a that's a 

1856
01:56:42,320 --> 01:56:45,400
good problem. 
So his target threat run started

1857
01:56:45,400 --> 01:56:50,160
off as 12% week, 117% week two 
and. 

1858
01:56:50,740 --> 01:56:55,300
Week 3 and 420 and 23% and then 
last week 10%. 

1859
01:56:56,140 --> 01:57:01,100
So I guess if you're using a 
rolling tree week 18% it says 

1860
01:57:01,100 --> 01:57:07,540
normal not weighted targets per 
at run and so still not not 

1861
01:57:07,540 --> 01:57:11,940
really concentrated. 
And so that that is making me 

1862
01:57:11,940 --> 01:57:16,620
think that this is sort of sort 
of feel like an offense where 

1863
01:57:17,420 --> 01:57:21,620
it's hard to hard to be 
interested so so might be so if 

1864
01:57:21,620 --> 01:57:24,060
we're kind of thinking through 
like the offenses where they're 

1865
01:57:24,060 --> 01:57:27,540
less desirable. 
You know that we touched on the 

1866
01:57:27,540 --> 01:57:30,580
giants talked about the 
commanders talked about the 

1867
01:57:30,580 --> 01:57:33,780
Broncos passing game. 
Do you say it's fair to kind of 

1868
01:57:33,780 --> 01:57:38,060
categorize those three together 
as even though the quarterbacks,

1869
01:57:38,100 --> 01:57:41,820
you know, especially at their 
price like you know Sam Sam 

1870
01:57:41,820 --> 01:57:44,500
Howell has delivered you a good 
spike week and that's really all

1871
01:57:44,500 --> 01:57:47,620
you all you could ask for for a 
guy at that the price that he 

1872
01:57:47,620 --> 01:57:52,210
was going at and you know Russ 
has been fine especially for his

1873
01:57:52,210 --> 01:57:54,570
price. 
But it's really just those the 

1874
01:57:54,570 --> 01:57:58,090
other weapons, the skill 
position players I guess really 

1875
01:57:58,090 --> 01:58:00,890
in the receiving game cuz cuz 
like Brian Robinson has been 

1876
01:58:00,890 --> 01:58:05,690
good, you know and the Broncos 
running backs have been fine as 

1877
01:58:05,690 --> 01:58:08,650
a group. 
For as an individual it's been a

1878
01:58:08,650 --> 01:58:11,850
little thin. 
The Giants haven't been good 

1879
01:58:12,010 --> 01:58:13,570
anywhere. 
But I I you right. 

1880
01:58:13,690 --> 01:58:15,530
It's a good good categorization 
of. 

1881
01:58:15,650 --> 01:58:18,570
Lump Yeah, yeah, yeah, together.
I mean obviously the the 

1882
01:58:18,970 --> 01:58:23,450
commanders and Broncos have had 
better offensive success, but 

1883
01:58:23,770 --> 01:58:28,370
just very like it's not 
concentrating on on anyone. 

1884
01:58:28,370 --> 01:58:35,610
So that makes it hard to like 
really, truly recommend any of 

1885
01:58:35,610 --> 01:58:37,050
these players. 
For sure. 

1886
01:58:41,500 --> 01:58:44,020
I didn't, I didn't have a ton 
more on this chart. 

1887
01:58:44,300 --> 01:58:48,380
I guess Josh Downs kind of the 
same discussion that we had 

1888
01:58:48,380 --> 01:58:51,820
about Michael Pittman, 
interested in him potentially 

1889
01:58:52,580 --> 01:58:56,140
seeing more targets with Minshew
seeing higher quality targets. 

1890
01:58:56,140 --> 01:58:58,380
I think he's good. 
He's like actually good. 

1891
01:58:59,020 --> 01:59:00,820
So that's one that I'm 
interested in. 

1892
01:59:01,700 --> 01:59:03,540
I'm going to rapid fire a couple
guys. 

1893
01:59:03,740 --> 01:59:06,940
Michael Wilson had a comeback 
down to earth Game just like one

1894
01:59:06,940 --> 01:59:08,020
target. 
Whatever. 

1895
01:59:09,250 --> 01:59:12,450
But you know what the the 
Michael Wilson thesis of Hey, 

1896
01:59:12,450 --> 01:59:15,850
this is my random bring back guy
for Week 17 against the Eagles 

1897
01:59:15,850 --> 01:59:18,770
and it's a rookie receiver. 
That and the Cardinals, you 

1898
01:59:18,770 --> 01:59:20,970
know, probably will will at 
least give him some run. 

1899
01:59:20,970 --> 01:59:24,170
By then the thesis looks clearly
correct. 

1900
01:59:24,490 --> 01:59:27,650
Whether you get the result that 
you need in Week 17, that's up 

1901
01:59:27,650 --> 01:59:32,290
to the gods of randomness. 
But you know good good analysis 

1902
01:59:32,290 --> 01:59:35,010
for the people that were saying 
Michael Wilson, you know just 

1903
01:59:35,010 --> 01:59:37,290
just cuz he got one target this 
week doesn't mean anything. 

1904
01:59:37,290 --> 01:59:41,090
It's hey, we saw the kind of 
game that he can deliver with 

1905
01:59:41,090 --> 01:59:43,290
the two touchdowns and lots of 
catches. 

1906
01:59:43,850 --> 01:59:45,370
That's all you really needed 
from the guy. 

1907
01:59:45,370 --> 01:59:47,810
So whatever. 
Probably not super startable and

1908
01:59:47,810 --> 01:59:50,410
like season long fantasy, but 
definitely someone where if he 

1909
01:59:50,410 --> 01:59:53,370
was your last round best ball 
pick you could have done worse. 

1910
01:59:54,330 --> 01:59:59,050
Right, right. 
And it does feel like every year

1911
01:59:59,050 --> 02:00:04,000
and. 
People people talk about like 

1912
02:00:04,000 --> 02:00:08,040
hey there's so much opportunity 
here like I I wanna be here. 

1913
02:00:08,160 --> 02:00:12,280
I I I this is something where it
has to be somebody and I I'm 

1914
02:00:12,280 --> 02:00:17,600
gonna do it with this guy and 
and it does feel like we get 

1915
02:00:17,600 --> 02:00:22,720
those kind of hits every year 
but it's it's also it's easy to 

1916
02:00:22,720 --> 02:00:27,720
forget it's happened more 
frequently this year and where 

1917
02:00:27,720 --> 02:00:32,680
those guys hit but we also get a
lot of those guys where and it 

1918
02:00:33,080 --> 02:00:37,800
just didn't work at all like the
Brashad Perriman pick where like

1919
02:00:37,800 --> 02:00:41,640
oh there's opportunity here and 
and he's just going to fall into

1920
02:00:41,640 --> 02:00:44,760
it and and they get cut or it 
doesn't work there. 

1921
02:00:44,760 --> 02:00:48,760
Like Van Jefferson is another 
example where people would have 

1922
02:00:48,760 --> 02:00:53,360
been drafting him highly because
of the Cooper Cup injury and now

1923
02:00:53,360 --> 02:00:55,120
he's at now he plays with the 
Falcons. 

1924
02:00:57,800 --> 02:01:03,170
Yeah. 
Well, I I I'm with you where it 

1925
02:01:03,210 --> 02:01:08,170
it's it is hard to like find the
take here where we haven't 

1926
02:01:08,170 --> 02:01:10,850
discussed it already. 
Yeah. 

1927
02:01:10,850 --> 02:01:13,170
I think we're good to move on to
the last chart because there 

1928
02:01:13,170 --> 02:01:16,130
were a couple guys on this last 
one, Okay, that I wanted to talk

1929
02:01:16,130 --> 02:01:17,170
about. 
Ohh. 

1930
02:01:17,170 --> 02:01:21,810
Yeah, you go ahead. 
So Christian Watson got, I mean 

1931
02:01:21,810 --> 02:01:25,370
his his weighted targets for 
route run is really high 

1932
02:01:25,450 --> 02:01:29,970
especially for a guy seeing the 
the amount of routes that he is.

1933
02:01:30,570 --> 02:01:36,090
So I I'm not entirely sure how I
feel about Christian Watson. 

1934
02:01:37,250 --> 02:01:42,690
I feel like in that offense, 
like it's clear that someone has

1935
02:01:42,690 --> 02:01:46,170
to do something because you know
right now this whole thing of 

1936
02:01:46,170 --> 02:01:51,650
none of them do anything. 
Like we saw on on Monday, like 

1937
02:01:52,010 --> 02:01:57,410
that's not going to work. 
So someone's got to step up and 

1938
02:01:57,410 --> 02:01:59,910
do something. 
Whether it's gonna be one of the

1939
02:01:59,910 --> 02:02:03,510
receivers or whether it really 
requires Aaron Jones coming 

1940
02:02:03,510 --> 02:02:07,670
back, I think it's yet to be 
seen from watching the game 

1941
02:02:08,110 --> 02:02:11,150
really. 
Like all that Watson got was a 

1942
02:02:11,150 --> 02:02:13,430
deep target and like, yeah, 
that's what you want. 

1943
02:02:13,430 --> 02:02:15,870
And and it should have been a 
touchdown, it was a horse collar

1944
02:02:15,870 --> 02:02:17,630
tackle. 
Honestly, it's kind of bullshit 

1945
02:02:17,630 --> 02:02:22,790
that like, I I feel like there 
there are plays like that where 

1946
02:02:22,790 --> 02:02:24,230
it's like dude, that's a 
touchdown. 

1947
02:02:24,230 --> 02:02:27,390
Like, you can't just foul a guy 
and have it not be a touchdown 

1948
02:02:27,390 --> 02:02:29,540
now. 
Like, well, I don't know. 

1949
02:02:29,620 --> 02:02:31,300
That's what they coached to do. 
Yeah. 

1950
02:02:31,300 --> 02:02:34,020
Oh, for sure. 
Yeah, oh 100%. 

1951
02:02:34,020 --> 02:02:36,300
I think the players are playing 
that optimally. 

1952
02:02:36,300 --> 02:02:40,340
It's just the rule is stupid. 
Like if if you're telling me 

1953
02:02:40,340 --> 02:02:43,500
that what I should do is 
potentially maim this man by 

1954
02:02:43,500 --> 02:02:46,940
horse collaring him and that is 
the optimal way to play to win 

1955
02:02:46,940 --> 02:02:49,980
this game, fuck your rules. 
Those are some stupid rules. 

1956
02:02:50,020 --> 02:02:54,620
Like, I mean, shoot, if I was a 
player, be in that situation. 

1957
02:02:55,030 --> 02:02:58,870
I'm maiming away, maybe let me 
let me name him because 

1958
02:02:58,910 --> 02:03:03,550
otherwise it's a touchdown, so 
he should have had a huge splash

1959
02:03:03,550 --> 02:03:07,390
touchdown play. 
To me, what you're looking at 

1960
02:03:07,390 --> 02:03:12,710
with Christian Watson is he 
needs to deliver games like that

1961
02:03:12,710 --> 02:03:15,710
with those splash touchdown 
plays at a high enough frequency

1962
02:03:15,710 --> 02:03:18,070
to pay off his fourth round 
cost. 

1963
02:03:18,710 --> 02:03:21,950
I don't think that's going to 
happen, is my early read on it, 

1964
02:03:21,950 --> 02:03:27,620
just from seeing I. 
I'm I'm gonna get ready to heat 

1965
02:03:27,620 --> 02:03:31,180
myself up a big helping of Crow 
here for for when this when he 

1966
02:03:31,180 --> 02:03:34,020
just jams it down my throat. 
But I don't think he's that 

1967
02:03:34,020 --> 02:03:36,420
good. 
I I think he's you know I I 

1968
02:03:36,420 --> 02:03:41,900
watched a guy just like him in 
the XFL this season and you know

1969
02:03:42,140 --> 02:03:45,220
I I really don't think he's 
anything but Martavis Bryant. 

1970
02:03:45,220 --> 02:03:47,860
Like if you watch the last play 
of the game where? 

1971
02:03:48,360 --> 02:03:51,400
A good player wins the game for 
Green Bay because he goes and 

1972
02:03:51,400 --> 02:03:54,080
makes a contested catch on an 
under thrown ball and just 

1973
02:03:54,200 --> 02:03:57,280
alphas that shit away from the 
defender, spikes the ball and 

1974
02:03:57,280 --> 02:04:00,640
walks off with a dub. 
Like Christian Watson. 

1975
02:04:00,640 --> 02:04:04,360
Just like looked like a little 
boy there and got alphaed by the

1976
02:04:04,360 --> 02:04:07,520
defender and the dude picked it 
off and that's game. 

1977
02:04:07,640 --> 02:04:10,480
You know, I I don't know man. 
Christian Watson, I don't think 

1978
02:04:10,480 --> 02:04:12,840
is actually that good. 
I think he's an athletic freak. 

1979
02:04:12,880 --> 02:04:15,560
I think he's still raw as a wide
receiver. 

1980
02:04:15,970 --> 02:04:19,130
And so you're going to get the 
Hey, this is a super athletic 

1981
02:04:19,130 --> 02:04:21,410
guy who's fast as fuck, and 
he'll score a breakaway 

1982
02:04:21,410 --> 02:04:24,850
touchdown every once in a while.
Don't think it's a kind of 

1983
02:04:24,850 --> 02:04:28,450
player that I want to be paying.
This is Gabe Davis on a worse 

1984
02:04:28,450 --> 02:04:31,090
offense, man. 
Like, what are we doing? 

1985
02:04:31,370 --> 02:04:34,730
What are we doing? 
I mean it is his usage thoughts 

1986
02:04:34,730 --> 02:04:41,050
were good like he had 187 air 
yards and 24% targets per at 

1987
02:04:41,050 --> 02:04:43,380
run. 
Yeah, 7 targets. 

1988
02:04:43,380 --> 02:04:49,260
So like good usage there. 
And but then to only get what, 

1989
02:04:49,900 --> 02:04:55,940
11.6 Pbr points from that and I 
guess you could call some of the

1990
02:04:55,940 --> 02:05:00,860
variance that maybe if he adds 
the touchdown like you're, well,

1991
02:05:00,980 --> 02:05:04,860
if he adds the touchdown, you're
getting closer to 18 points 

1992
02:05:04,860 --> 02:05:08,190
there. 
But a lot of the other targets 

1993
02:05:08,190 --> 02:05:09,830
were nothing. 
Burgers, though. 

1994
02:05:09,950 --> 02:05:13,750
It was like, here's Christian 
Watson 5 yards down the field. 

1995
02:05:13,990 --> 02:05:16,430
Woo. 
Like on a on a play where the 

1996
02:05:16,430 --> 02:05:19,670
defense couldn't care less about
giving him 5 yard. 

1997
02:05:19,670 --> 02:05:22,310
You know, like, I don't know. 
I'm. 

1998
02:05:22,710 --> 02:05:24,750
I'm fully ready to eat my curl 
on this. 

1999
02:05:24,790 --> 02:05:30,510
But yeah, I I don't know. 
Like, I get it. 

2000
02:05:30,550 --> 02:05:33,990
And where like maybe some of 
them are like really deep down 

2001
02:05:33,990 --> 02:05:39,370
the field it's like you have 250
yard and and then a bunch of 

2002
02:05:39,370 --> 02:05:45,290
like lower a dot stuff and but 
187 that's that's that's a lot 

2003
02:05:45,290 --> 02:05:50,130
of air yards and but it's if if 
the distribution is working out 

2004
02:05:50,130 --> 02:05:54,570
like that then those those can 
often be players then where you 

2005
02:05:54,570 --> 02:05:58,850
don't actually get that good 
good a score because like 

2006
02:06:00,170 --> 02:06:05,500
getting let's say getting 5 
targets 20 yards down the field 

2007
02:06:05,820 --> 02:06:12,300
400 area yards is is way better 
than like 170 yard bomb and then

2008
02:06:12,300 --> 02:06:18,700
for like whatever whatever the 
remaining area yards divided by 

2009
02:06:19,220 --> 02:06:24,460
by 4 is. 
So yeah, the distribution could 

2010
02:06:24,460 --> 02:06:26,380
definitely work against him 
there. 

2011
02:06:27,320 --> 02:06:29,960
So definitely understand that 
for sure. 

2012
02:06:30,120 --> 02:06:33,200
That's that's very well put and 
I feel like you explained my 

2013
02:06:33,200 --> 02:06:36,720
point in a much more intelligent
way than Christian Watson bad. 

2014
02:06:38,000 --> 02:06:42,760
So thank you for that. 
I I didn't have a ton of other 

2015
02:06:42,760 --> 02:06:45,800
guys on this chart to add 
though. 

2016
02:06:45,800 --> 02:06:47,360
Did you did you have anyone 
else? 

2017
02:06:47,960 --> 02:06:53,510
So just person Watson still pick
51 so happen to take him in the 

2018
02:06:53,510 --> 02:06:58,430
fifth round which does it feels 
definitely rich for the 

2019
02:06:58,430 --> 02:07:05,110
information we've gotten on this
offense and then definitely with

2020
02:07:05,110 --> 02:07:08,150
like I mean he wasn't a great 
Christian Watson wasn't a great 

2021
02:07:08,150 --> 02:07:11,830
prospect so definitely yeah 
definitely understand the point 

2022
02:07:11,830 --> 02:07:15,270
there and. 
Christian Watson at 51 couldn't 

2023
02:07:15,270 --> 02:07:20,270
be me right. 
I didn't take very much this 

2024
02:07:20,270 --> 02:07:26,020
year even though the the the the
the way the targets were 

2025
02:07:26,020 --> 02:07:30,380
excellent last year and then but
it did feel just a little bit 

2026
02:07:30,380 --> 02:07:37,380
too rich given the given the 
overall profile and so tank Dell

2027
02:07:37,380 --> 02:07:42,380
up here I think we've discussed 
that super excited Z Jones the 

2028
02:07:42,380 --> 02:07:48,140
cheap Jaguar sort of like not at
not quite paying off or not 

2029
02:07:48,140 --> 02:07:52,760
quite giving you something to be
excited about and but would hope

2030
02:07:52,760 --> 02:07:59,400
for hope for a big week and in 
the future And I did notice that

2031
02:07:59,400 --> 02:08:04,680
Sky Mur he's available in our he
was available on waivers in our 

2032
02:08:04,680 --> 02:08:08,640
in our main event team and he 
definitely looks like a player 

2033
02:08:08,640 --> 02:08:12,240
who who should be available. 
And and on waivers he shall 

2034
02:08:12,240 --> 02:08:20,200
remain and but yeah, nothing. 
Nothing else really compelling 

2035
02:08:20,200 --> 02:08:23,890
here, I don't think. 
Well, do you? 

2036
02:08:24,010 --> 02:08:30,130
I I know we went over 2 hours so
maybe we just do do a quick fun 

2037
02:08:30,130 --> 02:08:33,890
little thing here. 
But I I did want to show off the

2038
02:08:33,890 --> 02:08:38,970
the BBM4 leaderboard that we've 
got up over at Spike week. 

2039
02:08:38,970 --> 02:08:42,130
Now it's like an actual 
leaderboard where you can see, 

2040
02:08:42,330 --> 02:08:45,490
you know, the whole teams of the
players and the scores for each 

2041
02:08:45,490 --> 02:08:48,130
week and everything, and look at
different combinations and. 

2042
02:08:48,970 --> 02:08:51,090
Cool stuff. 
I wanted to go through a couple 

2043
02:08:51,090 --> 02:08:54,730
here, maybe maybe like the top 
team and a couple combos, but we

2044
02:08:54,770 --> 02:08:59,170
we did have a pretty long, 
pretty long one here. 

2045
02:08:59,170 --> 02:09:03,930
But we'll we'll kind of look at 
this real quick, OK? 

2046
02:09:06,050 --> 02:09:09,010
Do you know how to share a 
screen on this? 

2047
02:09:09,330 --> 02:09:11,650
I think I'm doing it. 
Did I do it? 

2048
02:09:13,450 --> 02:09:17,300
I think you did it. 
All right, so this here is our 

2049
02:09:17,300 --> 02:09:18,940
premium leaderboard. 
Yeah, Zoom. 

2050
02:09:19,780 --> 02:09:21,620
Though you're right. 
Thank you. 

2051
02:09:21,700 --> 02:09:30,780
Let's there we go. 
So this is our premium 

2052
02:09:30,780 --> 02:09:32,300
leaderboard. 
If you have a Spike Week 

2053
02:09:32,300 --> 02:09:36,100
subscription, you can see this. 
You can do the leaderboard with 

2054
02:09:36,100 --> 02:09:38,580
players, which is just gonna be 
like this really what the 

2055
02:09:38,580 --> 02:09:42,530
premium lets you do. 
Is see specific weeks and like 

2056
02:09:42,570 --> 02:09:45,010
all the points and everything. 
So we'll we'll do that one 

2057
02:09:45,010 --> 02:09:48,850
because that's the most fun. 
But I I did want to look at the 

2058
02:09:48,850 --> 02:09:52,570
top team here I do think was it 
Steph did you get this guy to 

2059
02:09:52,570 --> 02:09:57,210
share his team over on Twitter? 
But now if we run into the 

2060
02:09:57,210 --> 02:10:00,730
random first place team and no 
one can suss the guy out on 

2061
02:10:00,730 --> 02:10:03,770
Twitter or figure out who he is 
don't worry we'll be able to see

2062
02:10:03,770 --> 02:10:07,410
the team. 
So first place, definitely. 

2063
02:10:08,140 --> 02:10:11,180
Has seen better days at 
quarterback with his Anthony 

2064
02:10:11,180 --> 02:10:14,700
Richardson going down, but I 
mean, he's got all the usual 

2065
02:10:14,700 --> 02:10:18,100
suspects you'd expect on a first
place team with Puka and Kyron. 

2066
02:10:18,500 --> 02:10:21,780
He's got Mostert and a chain and
or a Chan in there. 

2067
02:10:22,140 --> 02:10:25,220
Taji's exciting. 
The bully tight end though is 

2068
02:10:25,220 --> 02:10:27,100
very interesting. 
I'm pretty sure that this guy's 

2069
02:10:27,100 --> 02:10:32,100
just gonna gonna wind up kind of
dead at at wide receiver here as

2070
02:10:32,100 --> 02:10:36,460
the season goes on. 
Looks a little bit thin. 

2071
02:10:37,450 --> 02:10:41,650
A lot of three QV teams at the 
top right now. 

2072
02:10:42,130 --> 02:10:45,130
This team though, this was one 
that I looked at earlier with 

2073
02:10:45,130 --> 02:10:49,970
the Josh Allen, Justin Fields. 
This one I do think is kind of 

2074
02:10:49,970 --> 02:10:54,210
dead though for first place 
because they're both Week 13 

2075
02:10:54,210 --> 02:10:58,490
buys and like, if you're trying 
to literally hit the nuts as the

2076
02:10:58,490 --> 02:11:01,970
first overall highest scoring 
team in regular season. 

2077
02:11:03,420 --> 02:11:06,380
You gotta have something crazy 
happen like basically this guy's

2078
02:11:06,380 --> 02:11:10,900
out is he needs Mac Hollins to 
score enough to replace whatever

2079
02:11:10,900 --> 02:11:14,780
like anyone who have a a good 
number of his combos covered 

2080
02:11:15,940 --> 02:11:18,740
like his week 13 quarterback 
score that he misses out on. 

2081
02:11:18,740 --> 02:11:22,820
He needs Mac Hollins or like 
Chase Brown to score like one of

2082
02:11:22,820 --> 02:11:25,700
these guys that's not you see 
this 8% owned here. 

2083
02:11:25,980 --> 02:11:28,380
That shows the frequency with 
which they were drafted. 

2084
02:11:28,380 --> 02:11:31,220
So a player that's drafted and 
every draft will be 8%. 

2085
02:11:31,700 --> 02:11:34,470
Anyone under that is. 
You know you can see basically 

2086
02:11:34,470 --> 02:11:37,190
as a proportion so this guy 
who's drafted in five out of 

2087
02:11:37,470 --> 02:11:42,790
every eight drafts basically you
know kind of a quick way to do 

2088
02:11:42,790 --> 02:11:45,430
that. 
But yeah we we don't we don't 

2089
02:11:45,430 --> 02:11:47,510
have to scroll through too many 
here. 

2090
02:11:48,830 --> 02:11:51,390
I didn't I didn't see anyone 
that I recognized from like 

2091
02:11:52,150 --> 02:11:55,070
deposit Kingdom or or ship 
chasing here at the very top. 

2092
02:11:56,190 --> 02:11:59,030
But if you're if you're wanting 
to to play around with this it's

2093
02:11:59,150 --> 02:12:00,710
I was having a lot of fun 
earlier. 

2094
02:12:01,220 --> 02:12:04,100
You can toggle through 500 
lineups here at a time and have 

2095
02:12:04,100 --> 02:12:07,020
them all be displayed. 
If you're not wanting to look at

2096
02:12:07,780 --> 02:12:10,140
all the players, you can do up 
to 1000 at a time. 

2097
02:12:10,340 --> 02:12:12,660
Just kind of flip through them 
really quick. 

2098
02:12:12,740 --> 02:12:15,780
Find yourself. 
If you are a Spike week member, 

2099
02:12:15,780 --> 02:12:18,020
you get your little your little 
Spike week thing there. 

2100
02:12:18,460 --> 02:12:22,380
And then if you're wanting to to
search for yourself, like let's 

2101
02:12:22,380 --> 02:12:25,660
see, do I have any between 7000?
Oh, OK. 

2102
02:12:25,660 --> 02:12:29,220
This this doppelgang or name 
guy, this SAC Dance character. 

2103
02:12:32,120 --> 02:12:33,240
Let's see. 
Rocking here. 

2104
02:12:33,240 --> 02:12:34,960
Oh we we went all the way back 
to the start. 

2105
02:12:34,960 --> 02:12:37,120
We have to we're we're not gonna
go through all that trouble 

2106
02:12:37,120 --> 02:12:38,640
again. 
But I I keep seeing this guy on 

2107
02:12:38,640 --> 02:12:42,120
the leaderboards and I was 
looking up his exposures as 

2108
02:12:42,120 --> 02:12:44,160
well. 
He's got like all the same 

2109
02:12:44,160 --> 02:12:46,720
overweight positions as me. 
I I gotta gotta find this 

2110
02:12:46,720 --> 02:12:50,080
character. 
Steph, are you are you up in the

2111
02:12:50,080 --> 02:12:52,320
top 500? 
We'll pull you up here. 

2112
02:12:52,680 --> 02:12:55,240
Oh, you're. 
I am actually curious where 

2113
02:12:55,240 --> 02:12:58,290
walrus balls is. 
Walrus Prawls is still pretty 

2114
02:12:58,290 --> 02:13:00,970
high up. 
We got OK so Steph's Rockin 

2115
02:13:00,970 --> 02:13:05,970
place 475 here. 
Jalen Hurts Jordan Love that's a

2116
02:13:06,050 --> 02:13:08,730
that was a really nice start 
that you got from Jordan Love to

2117
02:13:08,730 --> 02:13:11,570
get those especially when Hurts 
is having some of the lower 

2118
02:13:11,570 --> 02:13:16,490
scoring weeks. 
ETN B Rob Warren A Chan that's 

2119
02:13:16,490 --> 02:13:20,650
really nice. 
The Chandler stuff, you're 

2120
02:13:20,690 --> 02:13:23,690
you're feeling a little thinner 
there now with. 

2121
02:13:25,110 --> 02:13:27,630
With acres there. 
But I mean your wide receivers 

2122
02:13:27,630 --> 02:13:32,070
are also so nasty. 
The Mike Williams one is pretty 

2123
02:13:32,070 --> 02:13:36,950
painful though that's going to 
be really hard to to be live for

2124
02:13:36,950 --> 02:13:39,390
first place. 
It's just so, so tough. 

2125
02:13:39,390 --> 02:13:42,110
You basically have to hit the 
nuts like we're talking about 

2126
02:13:42,110 --> 02:13:45,430
this earlier with respect to the
drafters format. 

2127
02:13:45,670 --> 02:13:48,830
But like teams with Justin 
Jefferson and drafters, you're 

2128
02:13:48,830 --> 02:13:50,470
dead. 
Like, sorry, no first place for 

2129
02:13:50,470 --> 02:13:52,270
you. 
Teams with a Chan and drafters, 

2130
02:13:52,270 --> 02:13:55,370
you're dead unlucky like. 
You you pretty much have to hit 

2131
02:13:55,530 --> 02:13:58,850
the perfect nuts. 
So getting a dead player like 

2132
02:13:58,850 --> 02:14:02,210
that, with that amount of draft 
capital, the only way that I 

2133
02:14:02,210 --> 02:14:05,890
would see this team being like 
actually live for first is you 

2134
02:14:05,890 --> 02:14:10,130
get Chandler to come on because 
he's only a 6% owned player and 

2135
02:14:10,130 --> 02:14:12,490
you get Michael Wilson to do 
some stuff. 

2136
02:14:13,010 --> 02:14:15,490
But if you if you got like a 
legitimate Michael Wilson 

2137
02:14:15,490 --> 02:14:19,330
season, then this is a really, 
really strong team. 

2138
02:14:19,330 --> 02:14:22,760
I mean. 
It's probably not to not to mush

2139
02:14:22,760 --> 02:14:24,600
you, but this is probably a lock
to advance. 

2140
02:14:24,600 --> 02:14:27,800
Like it looks really strong. 
So that's a awesome team. 

2141
02:14:27,800 --> 02:14:31,120
Ohh yeah very very valid point 
that Addison might ascend enough

2142
02:14:31,720 --> 02:14:35,320
with J Jeff out. 
But yeah, that's a that's a very

2143
02:14:35,320 --> 02:14:38,120
fun team. 
And then like if you wanted to 

2144
02:14:38,120 --> 02:14:42,800
see for example, I I I gotta run
pretty soon. 

2145
02:14:43,120 --> 02:14:45,360
OK, we'll we'll we'll wrap it up
here. 

2146
02:14:45,360 --> 02:14:48,160
But like, if you wanna see 
player combos, we we've got all 

2147
02:14:48,160 --> 02:14:51,410
that stuff over here. 
You can see their draft rate, 

2148
02:14:51,650 --> 02:14:55,130
the QBs they were stacked with. 
Interesting that Justice Hill 

2149
02:14:55,130 --> 02:14:59,210
was stacked the most with Dak 
Prescott and CD Lam, but I'll 

2150
02:14:59,210 --> 02:15:00,970
let you guys fiddle around with 
this. 

2151
02:15:01,370 --> 02:15:04,290
All the tournament info, 
tournament DB, and the free 

2152
02:15:04,290 --> 02:15:06,250
version of the leaderboard. 
Just go check those out. 

2153
02:15:06,570 --> 02:15:10,090
Really fun and cool to to play 
around with the actual BBM 4 

2154
02:15:10,090 --> 02:15:14,970
leaderboard, but for everyone 
that managed to make it for 2 

2155
02:15:14,970 --> 02:15:18,810
1/4 hours, we appreciate you. 
Hope you got some good alpha 

2156
02:15:18,810 --> 02:15:23,400
from the show. 
And we will see you next week at

2157
02:15:23,400 --> 02:15:29,240
the usual time of Tuesday night 
at 5:00, but eight, 8:00 PM 

2158
02:15:29,520 --> 02:15:30,720
Eastern. 
Thank you. 

2159
02:15:30,760 --> 02:15:32,080
Yeah, Pacific. 
Yeah. 

2160
02:15:32,720 --> 02:15:35,280
Bullshit. 
I I'm on the best coast time but

2161
02:15:36,720 --> 02:15:38,640
thanks guys and and we'll see 
you next week. 

2162
02:15:39,760 --> 02:15:40,560
See you next week.
