So it seems like if your quarterback missed a bunch of games, Daniel Jones, Anthony Richardson, Tua, you got like the free pass this year. Is that the Mike McCarthy prognostication there? We'll find out. Because he's a winner, Jason. He is a winner. He wins Super Bowl a long time ago.

Zach Taylor drives me crazy. I don't know that he is a bad coach. Like, I'm not saying he is just bad. You should fire him. But he definitely makes very bad decisions.

frequently so you are you do get your feathers in game he drives me nuts so I don't know whatever he's got Joe Burrow so he wins a lot of games hard to fire him but I think they could do a lot better than Zach Taylor and just imagine just imagine like oh there's all these coaching openings right and it's like the coaches right Ben Johnson is the bell of the ball this year he's gonna get to pick where he wants to go now just imagine one of these spots has Joe Burrow

Can I change my pick? I don't think they need Zay Flowers to beat the Steelers.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

1176.929

Last I saw was nine and a half point favorites over the Steelers. They need Zay Flowers.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

1182.533

Assuming that it's going to be the Bills. They would need them there.

1294.105

It's so not fair because, I mean, I would be impressed if somehow they kept him out of this game because in the situation where he would need to not play, that they would actually not play him. But the whole world knows.

I love that he got benched when he wasn't playing well enough and got brought back because really it's a confidence thing. That's when you watch Bryce Young play the last month and a half, two months. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. He looks so much more confident.

The first month of the season had one total passing touchdown. And now he has the second most for a rookie quarterback. Let me ask you this. The last eight games, so the second half of the season, Bo Nix. How many passing touchdowns do you think that pace would be? The entire second half of the season for Bo Nix.

With 4,300 passing yards. Let's go. I mean, the offense has been... That's what Mike's talking about. He wants them youngsters.

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

1759.871

Marvin Mims, two more touchdowns. Dude, he's coming alive. I loved him coming out of college. It's nice to see them actually use him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

187.454

I thought that's what he was trying to say. People wear Yankees gear all the time just for fashion. They're not baseball fans.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

1910.231

Yeah, I agree. He still looks like a rookie, but he showed enough to wear your glass half full going forward.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

1925.899

I'm going to be completely honest. When the game came around and Sunday morning started, we were talking about Blackshear, and all of a sudden Miles Sanders was in the game. I was like, Miles Sanders? I didn't know he was active or going to play football this week. And not only did he play football, but he got 17 carries, 50 receiving yards, two touchdowns. Okay.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

1992.413

All on the ground. He had literally not a single target in that game, which feels stupid.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

204.526

I mean, I just assumed.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2114.062

I think he's a talented ancillary piece of a wide receiver core. Yeah, I can agree with that.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2125.828

Right. Are you speaking NFL landscape or fantasy?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

213.672

Why is it just them? You ever think of that?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2131.551

I still think probably a three.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2148.223

Did you mention Drake London's 18 targets?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2151.945

I mean, in the games with Michael Penix.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2158.208

Yeah, he's targeted on 41% of his routes, which is number one in the NFL.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

216.634

I literally have no idea what you're talking about. Maybe you could hit a little better if the hitters showed up. Is there a part of baseball where only pitchers and catchers show up? It's the spring training.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2181.945

I'm pretty in on Drake London, yeah. I think Pennix can get the job done. I mean, he's the wide receiver six this year.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2188.791

So it's, you know, in the end.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2194.113

I think next year he'll probably be more like wide receiver eight or nine, but he'll be a wide receiver one by ADP for sure.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2228.595

If he's gone – Godwin was so good this year. He was, but I get it. He's older, coming off of an injury. McMillan's breakout, you're going to have a lot of conversation down the road of – you know, is this Jahan Dotson scored more touchdowns than he should have? Or is this Amon Ross St. Brown, the end of year breakout where you just couldn't be stopped.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

230.219

I don't know why. I mean, I guess you got OTAs in football where it's just the offense. It's like, well, why is the defense there? It's because, like, well, the offense is more important.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

238.405

Wait, OTAs is only offense? No. That's not true? No. Weirdo. What am I thinking of? That's how you think of it because it's your players you're paying attention to.

2630.035

Of course it's steel. I know a thing or two about metal, okay? That is pure steel.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2655.829

I'll kick us off with the performance of the year. Which single week performance was the most impressive? You had Josh Allen's week 14 where he put up 51 fantasy points. You had Saquon Barkley's crazy 44 points. We had actually this year a lot.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2672.706

Of these massive 43-point performances like Alvin Kamara in Week 2, Jonathan Taylor's Week 16 explosion makeup for his drop in the touchdown, Jamar Chase put up a 50-burger in Week 10 versus Baltimore, and Brock Bowers, as a rookie, had a 25-point performance in Week 13.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2755.88

Yeah, I mean, Chris Olave's name is Christian. It is. So Christian Watson. Oh, no. Oh, no.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2818.857

Yeah, unlike the big performance of the year, which I feel like we had five of them that were bigger than the biggest last year. This year we had the Waver Wire Wonder, which undrafted Waver Wire stud was the best pickup of the season. Last year, Kyron Williams was great. I didn't feel like this year was as strong. You had Baker Mayfield, Sam Donald, good at the quarterback position.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2840.716

Jawan Jennings, Darnell Mooney, and then Jonu Smith at tight end, and Bucky Irving, a later season pickup. This one was tough.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2879.961

McCaffrey, Kirk, Watson, Godwin, Olave. Are there any? Okay, so let's focus on the Christian here. Come on, man. Are there any other fantasy football relevant humans named Christian? Or are they all down? Or did we go four for four? Did we take them all out? Christian Gonzalez just got hurt for the New England Patriots. Doesn't count. This is a fantasy show, but that's a good point. Did he?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2904.22

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2921.931

Christian Watson, Christian McCaffrey, Christian Kirk, and Christian Olave.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2936.036

Chosen whatever. Whatever his name is today, I don't know.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

2956.276

He brought a lot of people to the championship.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3031.448

Yeah, he was better at the start of the year. The wide receiver of the year. Last year was CeeDee Lamb stacking with Dak. This year. That was a good year. Yeah, for you. Jamar Chase, who finished as the wide receiver one, drafted as the wide receiver four, was obviously outstanding. Terry McLaurin, drafted as the wide receiver 32, finishes the wide receiver six, finally got himself a quarterback.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3056.896

And then you got a couple of breakout rookies. Brian Thomas Jr., who finished as the wide receiver four in his rookie season, as the wide receiver 47 drafted, and Malik Nabors, wide receiver seven finished, drafted as the wide receiver 22. Yeah.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3103.676

Would you rather have him or Amari Cooper? Oh, man. Can't believe the meat of that trade. Whoops-a-doozles.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3187.341

All right, we also have Rookie of the Year, who was also Puka Nakua last year. Puka was dominant. I'm surprised Puka wasn't the waiver wire wonder. I mean, Kyron was great, too.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3198.67

But, yeah, last year. He could have done the clean sweep there. The Rookie of the Year this year, the names are obvious. A lot of the names that we just talked about as a breakout, Jaden Daniels, Brian Thomas Jr., Malik Neighbors, and Brock Powers. Four studs. You know what?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

326.193

The morning started really – Slow and wonky, but towards the end of the morning games, especially when there was like the back and forth between the Falcons outcome versus the Buccaneers outcome that there was a lot of exciting stuff. Unfortunately, the the incredible. Incredible, much-anticipated game that we were waiting for between the Vikings and the Lions did not come to fruition.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

No one can. No one can. He also won't remember that he was nominated. Right, so maybe don't vote for him because he won't know.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3281.766

Oh, because he could see it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3282.606

Yeah. Isn't there something neat about that? That's my name. When did I get this?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3329.582

We have the Playoff King Award, who drove fantasy managers to a championship during the most important weeks, 15, 16, and 17. Last year was Kyron Williams, who was the running back 5, 11, and 1 through those weeks. This year at quarterback, we had Jared Goff, Jaden Daniels, Baker Mayfield, all hitting top 10 performances in all three weeks. You had Jonathan Taylor, who was...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3354.423

Running back 17, that was the first week of the playoffs where he dropped the ball, had a minus eight point play. But then he was the running back one and the running back one. So if you were in the playoffs, you knew it. Jameer Gibbs. Running back 3, 7, and 2, Brian Thomas Jr., 4, 3, and 14 wide receiver finishes. Tee Higgins, he was the wide receiver 14-16 championship week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3378.898

He was the number one wide receiver. Or Sam Laporta, who you kind of forgot about early on, but top six wide receiver each of the three playoff weeks, including a tight end one finish.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

3618.989

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

And it's really nice because you can't just do the classic March Madness bracket because the NFL recedes. So depending on who you pick, it doesn't just always go like your classic piece of paper bracket where, well, then that team goes and plays this team from that side of the bracket. So it makes it really, really nice for you. Very easy.

This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp. Let's talk flags for a moment. Not the kinds the refs pull on the field. I'm talking about something else. Green flags in relationships. Stuff you look for in a partner. You know, for me, you want to look for enjoying being around them. You want to look for shared common traits. It's different for everybody. Relationships take effort.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

727.439

And that was not the reason he got fired. He got fired not because he wasted away that first pick, but because he was not a good enough head coach. I mean, that was just the truth. He was not ready for this job. Even, you know, Kraft came out and talked about how...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

744.489

When the interviews, when he was coming up, Gerard Mayo was coming up for other interviews, he got scared that he was going to lose him and that he was the heir apparent. He was kind of that handpicked guy, so he put him in. I mean, the truth was he just wasn't that guy, and if you know it, you know it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

781.59

Yeah, that's some good ball by the Bills.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

796.26

But they also, I mean, it's easier to win when you put in your star rookie quarterback. And that's what happened for the first time all season for the Patriots.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

838.235

Like a year or two. Give him a couple years and let him go out on top. Yeah. Tell him to retire. Like, well, I'm not going to fire you, but just retire because you're doing awesome.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

861.787

I definitely think retaining Brian Dayball is the right route here. He appears to me still to be a good coach. He's been working with not a lot, so I don't know about the GM situation, but Dayball is the type of guy that I think if they let him go, he would be interviewed immediately for at least that coaching jobs or go get another OC job.

And if you want to make things work... I'd suggest therapy. It's a great tool that can help you navigate all sorts of relationship problems. And therapy can help you tackle other problems too. I've had therapy for years and you go through highs and you go through lows. Sometimes you're stressed. Sometimes things are going well.

Right at the end. Yeah.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

958.338

Down the stretch. I mean, you had one of the worst games of the season, of the whole season. One of the most surprising outcomes in week 17 to let the Colts win. just get annihilated by a team they were super favored over where they had to win. When that game ended, I thought Steichen would not be back, but this is also a team that has not been that bad.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Nominees + Week 18 Recap, Super Bowl Picks - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/7

981.774

They were in the playoff hunt last year and this year. It didn't happen, but this isn't a team that – I think continuity also matters, so probably a good move.

1076.396

Honestly, and what I was just bringing up, so obviously if they cut him, he'll have to go – wait, would he have to go through the waiver system at his year in the NFL? I don't know that off the top of my head. Kyle, vet that.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1095.868

the most valuable asset that any team can go get he's not worth trading for the current contract and giving up extra stuff for an older veteran but there are wide receiver needy teams and if he is out there he will he will have a lot of he will be hyper specific on where he wants to go yeah you know it's in it i think it will potentially come with rogers so we'll we'll see Yeah.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1124.828

I can see him just going to the Niners.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1208.676

I don't blame him. I don't blame him, man. What he put on the field last year was not special. Oh, man. It was an average running back. And I hope this coming season it's awesome, you know, that the team can commit to him. He could be one of, if not their best offensive weapon. He is still so young. And prior to this season. He'll be 24 this year. Incredibly explosive.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1233.256

This last year, I mean, we watched, you know, we watch everything. But it was just you would compare him to other players that made things happen on their own, and you'd just be like, well, Brees used to always hit that edge.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1376.349

I don't think the Packers would give up a first plus one of their wide receivers for DK Metcalf.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1383.671

Yeah, I'm guessing they're floating their second round pick, which feels fair to both parties, to be honest.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1405.652

Dude, I need to get rid of this trophy soon, and I'm telling you guys right now, you're going to want to stop drinking whatever's in your cup over the next month during our show. You're going to Mission Impossible him? A little food poisoning? Yeah, I'm thinking Dumb and Dumber him, but you're going to be sitting on the toilet.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1634.509

The Saints have done that for going on like 13 years. Every year they have no cap space. They restructure some guys.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1653.722

When they finally decide we cannot kick the can down the road anymore, which I don't know that they will ever do, but if they do, they will have the fastest route to the first pick in the draft because that thing will burn to the ground.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1683.886

And the cap going up so much this year. I mean, it's similar last year, but these are massive jumps. Teams have to spend at least 89% of the cap. So it's $279 million this year. That means a lot of these teams, even the kind of penny-pinching teams, they have to spend some big contracts. And one thing that I find, I don't even understand how it works.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1709.37

So the NFL as a whole must spend at least 95% of the cap. individual teams need to spend at least 89% of the cap. But how do you hold someone accountable on that?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1721.899

Yeah, if the whole league is at 94%. How do you tell that team? You go to the cheap team? You go to the cheap team. You've got to give out another contract.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1799.522

Jason, please. Sure, I'll kick it off. This was the one that really shocked you. I have Sam Darnold next year playing for the Minnesota Vikings. I don't think it is ruled out that they would bring him back, especially on a franchise tag. Bring him back for one year. That better happen quick. Well, right, sure. But this team won a lot of games.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1822.701

They were inches away, basically, or one very bad game away from From being the number one seed, and I think they don't know what they have in McCarthy, Darnold coming back makes sense if they can find a good enough deal for the Vikings.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1841.491

Now, if Sam Darnold goes out and has teams that are just money hand over fist, we believe in you, we're going to build our franchise around you based on what we saw last year. then he'll leave. But I just don't know if there are teams out there that are going to really, really, really do that. If there is one that's going to do that, I think it's your pick, Mike. All right. But I don't know.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

1861.918

I wouldn't do it. So you're going with the Vikings, Mike.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2024.178

Yeah, I agree completely. I've got him going to the Browns. If it happens at the top of the draft, kind of like what you're saying, and Shador isn't or Dart, if those guys aren't the right fit and they want to take a defensive piece, I think the Browns might be able to get Cam at two. I would be shocked if Cam doesn't go one.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2045.241

Because not necessarily to the Titans, but it seems like other teams, whether it's the Jets. Yeah, I saw the Giants rumors. The Giants trading up to one. Those rumors are flying. Or the Browns.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2059.493

Absolutely. But if they don't, then I think Fields makes a lot of sense for their team.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2103.374

That's the new, just let him compete. We've dropped him out of the kitchen completely. Let him find his way to the kitchen. I've got Russ going back to the Steelers. I do, too. The Steelers kind of seem like they're going to pick one of these two guys and sign them to a contract, so I've got them picking Russ since they picked Russ Lester.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2182.976

okay as a backup so I think it makes sense get Jones draft a running back later yeah I could see them doing that I have him um going out and trying to get a contract anywhere he can and I've got him going to the Browns is everyone going to the Browns Jay well two of the players so far that I've mentioned are going to the Browns it will be him and Justin Fields

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2221.658

I have him going to a team with massive amounts of cap room to be able to spend on a running back. They already spent cash on a running back. They did, which they still need running back help. And I think Drake May could use a veteran, someone that can come in there and establish it. So I've got Najee going to the Patriots.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2287.068

I've got him going to the Bears to be kind of the David Montgomery. It would have been great if you said Browns again. Going to the Bears to be that David Montgomery to DeAndre Swift, kind of the poor man's version of the Lions.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2350.461

I've got him going to the Colts to be a backup. I know a lot of times when you're doing the free agents, it's always like who needs a starting running back, but they need someone better behind the oft-injured Jonathan Taylor.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2378.257

Yeah, that's where he should go. The Raiders are where I've got him going. I've got him going there too. They are in desperate need of help, and he's available.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2439.747

Don't you dare steal this guy. It's like a joke. It's like trying to get someone to clean up your dog poop. Like, I've got a really nice pooper scooper. You should check this out. Why don't you use it?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2452.738

Yeah, exactly. Just try it out.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2518.339

Who's that? The Panthers. Yeah. Yeah. I was waiting for Adam Thielen to chime in. Oh, I'm so sorry. He's asleep. Yeah. It's nap time. So I think they've got enough money. They're trying to get some weapons for Bryce Young and there's not a ton out there. Big enough for the both of us. Yeah. I will go with the Ravens. That team's going to be sponsored by Metamucil. When you need to stay regular.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2542.318

Ironic, because the quarterback's name is Young.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2581.758

I think that would be pretty easy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2592.161

58 more receptions this year, and he enters the top 10 all-time.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2662.91

That would be so much fun. That's what I'll go with. That would be really great. I have him going to the Chiefs. He has played some really good football. The last couple years, he's looked great. And DeAndre Hopkins is not under contract. Juju is... This is basically... I think an upgrade right now, even though he's older for Patrick Mahomes, his play style to come in. This is a player.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

267.892

I didn't know I was getting a drum roll.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2687.656

I think maybe he will take less money because he's at the point where he'd love to just chase that championship. Sure. Uh, chiefs can't afford much. So maybe he'll come in a little bit cheap. All right.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2713.029

Uh-huh. And then Amari Cooper. I've got the Saints. I think Amari Cooper going to the Saints is perfect. It's just been like Mike. Is this the huge debate as to who the Saints are going to grab between these two players?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2778.133

Because I do think you can change midseason if you're great. Amari Cooper was a great – he went to a wide receiver needy team with a great quarterback and did jack squat. Now, granted, didn't he break his arm or wrist or something shortly after getting there?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

278.858

Wait a minute. Did you know there was going to be a drum roll? No. That was a surprise.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2796.748

Shattered his arm from his shoulder to his finger. They removed his arm, right? Played like it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

286.103

Either way, you ruined all anticipation. You just shouted the name. No, I didn't. I had just said Jay Rego. It is Janine Rego. Someone else out there might be like Josh Rego, and they're like, oh, I won. No, you didn't. Janine Rego, you were the one selected.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2918.531

I agree completely.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2922.854

I love Devontae Smith, but T. Higgins, when he has been on the field for the Bengals, is a fantasy star more than you realize. The injuries have plagued him, and that would be a reason to maybe go Devontae Smith. But I don't think that the injuries are just a guarantee to always happen. I don't think he is injury prone. I think he's just had injuries. We've seen that in lots of players.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

2944.967

And if he's on the field, he is more valuable for fantasy on the Bengals offense with the Bengals defense than Devontae Smith is on the current version of the Eagles. TTT.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3001.99

Middle of the second round, non-super flex rookie pick. Would you rather have Isaiah Pacheco or the second round?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3048.149

Obviously, if they were to roll back to the... Go into 2025 the way they went into 2024, Isaiah Pacheco would be great for fantasy. I don't believe that's going to happen. He didn't come back strong from the injuries. In the final year of his rookie deal, they need future anyways. And with a deep running back draft class, I think they're going to bring someone else...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3069.542

talented in, and then that could just completely ruin Isaiah Pacheco, both immediate term and long term.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3089.428

Veteran. Yeah, I would say veteran. I mean, if you say, you know, Darnold or, you know, Shador Sanders, it's definitely Darnold.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3109.372

I think it would be pretty much all of the veterans.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3129.099

if that were the case, or that would be my hope. Well, the nice thing is if you've got Rodgers, he's clearly a stopgap. They're still looking for their quarterback of the future. I don't believe this draft class for quarterbacks is great.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3139.988

So I would rather them go with – like if I've got Brock Bowers from a dynasty perspective, if I get Rodgers this year and then they're probably going to be bad, then maybe they can get a quality quarterback next year that over the next eight, nine years is better than –

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

3155.22

If you're not a Shador Sanders believer and that's the guy that's falling to them, then that ruins Brock Barrett or could potentially ruin him for four years while they figure that out.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

329.363

Yeah, there were players that stood out for better or worse. You had Tez Johnson, itty-bitty baby boy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

381.328

Yeah, Caleb Johnson was surprisingly slow on the 40. That one makes no sense.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

393.379

He's not a good sprinter. He ran a 4.57. I think he is a good running back.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

401.847

Yeah, his official score, I believe, was a 4.57, which was just slower than what you thought you might see on tape. And truly, he hit 22.2 miles per hour in a game last year. Which should just be what you know. Well, that's what happened with Puka. Puka ran slow, but they had the tracking of him hitting, I think it was 22 miles per hour in college.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

423.264

It's like, okay, so on the football field, he's fast, right? In underwear doing a track and field style sprint, you're not as fast. Which one do you want to play football?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

485.582

Yeah, guys that help their stock. Omari and Hampton.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

488.525

really showed out across the the gamut you know his his 40-yard dash 446 that's you know it's not breaking records but that's really fast for a guy that weighs in at 220 pounds all of his athletic measurables put him as an elite athlete I think he I think he combined himself into the first round he was a borderline first round pick yeah and and when I look at this but the thing is is with Hampton he projects to be a three down back like that is his skill set he was a a a

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

517.58

pass protector pass catcher in college and he's big he can do it all and so I do feel like for him for fantasy football purposes I want that team investment I want a team to spend a first rounder on him because then I know he's going to get the ball a ton I think he combined his way into that role yeah a lot of excitement around Hampton let's talk some more news news and notes from around the league

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

687.439

I don't think so. I feel like Debo's going to come here and help the team a little bit. Not a ton. They did need this. We've been talking about it. This is a... outlandishly bad, or outlandish is the wrong word. It is a very, very unusual wide receiver draft class for recent history. The prospects are not as good as they usually are coming out into the draft.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

70.765

A haboob rolled through. Those are fun when you're outside.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

713.519

And then, with T. Higgins getting tagged, the free agent pool of wide receivers, there's not much there. So if you want, if your team needs a wide receiver, there's one way to do it. And that's a trade for a guy. That's why I think DK Metcalf... probably will get traded because there's going to be teams that need to trade to address their wide receiver position.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

735.812

They can't necessarily do it in the draft or in free agency. To me, Debo will be a mild addition to this team. And I'm excited for Ricky Pearsall and the opportunities there. You've got Brandon Ayuk, who is, we don't know when he'll be back. Right now, I think the projection is probably start on the pup. But if he doesn't, he's not going to be full strength.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

842.526

It'll be really interesting to see where Jennings is drafted because Jawan Jennings was a stud at certain points last year, and it seems like they really need him now.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

937.682

Yeah, and so going forward, this is great for Puka, the fantasy value of Kyron Williams. I think that those two guys – I mean, Puka, you can make a strong argument that he should be the number two wide receiver behind Jamar Chase. Yeah. Anywhere there from like two to five or something, there's kind of a group of awesome wide receivers.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

957.039

But he very likely could – I mean, he was on a points per game basis if you take out his injured game, he was the number two wide receiver last year.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Free Agent Predictions + Deebo Trade, Combine Chat - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/4

988.857

Yeah, I think we are happy that Kelsey is back. Titans six. He is still, you know, if you were to remove Travis Kelsey's name and just have tightened X. Would you rather have him or Andrews?

They will do their best to get him 1,000 yards. That will be in play because then Kyle, he's tied right now with Jerry Rice. Am I remembering that right? That's correct. So if he gets it this year, then that's Mike Evans' record of most consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, right?

If you were playing Jerry Judy over the first half of the year, it was detrimental to your fantasy football lineup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

1568.783

It was Cedric Tillman at the beginning.

Is that the Watson injury game? I'm not sure the specifics of it. Week seven was the Watson injury. 39% of snaps for Watson that week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

1619.672

He's so bizarre, though. Jerry Judy has underperformed pretty drastically your hopes and your dreams for when he was drafted. He was in the Jefferson draft. Oh, yeah. Jefferson draft class. CD Lamb. Where Judy was the second wide receiver. I think you had Ruggs first. But it had been four years in Denver where you had an end of season.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

1653.114

You had one okay one, 972 yards, six touchdowns in year three with the Denver Broncos. But it's been an underperformance as a whole. And then you get the first half of this. But then now is this a the genie's out and the team's like, holy crap, we didn't even realize that this was part of the range of outcomes for Jerry Judy, which if you remember, they got him and they extended him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

Is this the Jameis Winston? Is it Devontae Parker? Right. Like the round one wide receiver who gives you very little, and then year five you're like, Holy crap, Terry. I knew it. I knew I should believe in Jerry Judy the whole time. And then you go, oh, no, no.

Yeah, he went nuclear. And when you compare him to other rookies, what they have already given us in the NFL, guys who were drafted in rounds one through three, Ladd is in the 80th percentile for targets per route run. We love that. Yards per route run, fourth best over the last decade. He's right there with Beckham, A.J. Brown, and Justin Jefferson in terms of a per route basis. So this is...

Yeah, so best balls for the absolute degenerates and maniacs out there. Best ball is open if you want to have a good time. But right now, we're seeing an early best ball ADP of wide receiver 10th.

Brown? I'll be on the Nabors side. Yeah. Brown will be a fringe wide receiver one in terms of ADP. And I know he finishes.

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

2382.515

The big games in the back. I mean, you have an overall number one. Big games in the back. Yeah, big back Jordan Addison. He had a number one overall finish. Two weeks later, he was number three with actually more points than he scored in his number one output. So when you, like those types of performances, that's multiple games in one. So it juices you up to wide receiver 16.

2750.007

I will. You will? I will. You? Yeah. You've been hurt so much. But here's the thing is, like, yes, there are many pains, but there are many pains from many fantasy football wide receivers out there who can't give you what T. Higgins can give you.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

2781.135

I wouldn't go there, but I would say that T. Higgins, yeah, he hasn't been a top 15 guy, but in three of five seasons, he's been wide receiver 22, 17, 19.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

2806.721

I think it is, if it's a place that I would project as good as the Chargers, it would probably be neutral because I think he can go be a number one. But this isn't like, I don't think he can be Jamar Chase. He can't be Jefferson, but he could be like Mike Evans numbers. T. Higgins can do that.

Yeah, he was a playoff guy.

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

3254.516

I thought you were going to go a different direction with your saying it like how you were on this podcast last year. giving the warnings of Brandon Iyuk, who was on a great team, a high-powered offense, has a good defense, has this unbelievable level of efficiency where Iyuk, the magical year two years ago, he was at... 17.9 yards per reception on 75 catches, 75 touchdowns. Jamison Williams.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

3286.562

75 touchdowns. Sorry, seven. Jamison Williams, 58 catches, 17.3, seven touchdowns. Very similar. Very similar. He was incredibly efficient. Big play dependent. Volume can go up for Jamison Williams. 91 targets. That's a number that you could see going up, but it's – I think he is difficult because it was so it was a huge place and those can bounce back and forth.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

I'm not saying he can't kind of replicate this, but it is very difficult.

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

3565.888

And he was interesting of he was far more productive against man coverage instead of zone. So maybe the downtick there that we mentioned at the top of the show of defenses running zone going down a little bit because, like, man, yards per route run, it's over three. Like, that's incredible. And then zone, it was down under two yards per route run. So it may be more –

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

3593.306

predictable with moving forward with him with that information if we can get a hold of which defenses are preferring to go with man coverage. I mean, it makes sense for the prototype of wide receiver that he is. He's the traditional X wide receiver where it's like the bigger guy, let's let him win a 50-50 ball.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: WRs Part 2 + Where’s Jason? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/4

3865.592

Yeah, and the reason I wouldn't say he's the biggest bust in fantasy football last year is like that whole first half. Week one was great. He was the QB4. They lose Tua for a huge stretch of games. You blamed it all on that. You didn't think it would be that bad as it was where, I mean, he's like in the 50s. He did nothing without Tua. And then Tua comes back, and you got something.

Tyreek Hill wasn't unplayable. Travis Etienne, if you put him in the lineup, you knew you were going to get punched in the face. But Tyreek, he's at least giving you games. He's just not giving you anything close to the wide receiver one.

4014.446

Yeah, you need someone like that where you can feel confident that if Tua misses a couple games, we're not just buried in the bottom of the ocean. Give me Jameis or give me death. Well, we like Jameis for fantasy. I don't know if people want Jameis to win football games.

FootClan Titles + Owl Hoots, Week 18 Waivers & Motivation - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/31

2991.211

It might be a good reason. I'm sure there's going to be plenty of discourse of, well, like, is Bowers going to Laporta? To me, the answer is absolutely not. Laporta, it was a really low-scoring tight end year last season, and it was not done on volume. It was done on touchdowns.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

FootClan Titles + Owl Hoots, Week 18 Waivers & Motivation - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/31

3012.784

Laporta's coming through in the playoffs because he's scoring a bunch of touchdowns, where Brock Bowers is a new Travis Kelsey, where he's the focal point of the Raiders' offense for the foreseeable future.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

FootClan Titles + Owl Hoots, Week 18 Waivers & Motivation - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/31

Bowers has 1,150 yards with a game left, and Laporta last year finished the season at 17 games with under 900 yards.

You think you've got a floor. Usually with mobile rushing quarterbacks, it's like, well, we know he's going to get 30, 40, 50 yards a game, so you're starting with a 3, 4, 5-point baseline in fantasy points scored. But the issue with Kyler this year... was sometimes he just didn't run. And that was the success or failure for fantasy purposes.

That's what I was going to bring up. I think in super flex leagues, Brock Purdy is a name that I will be much more excited about because he is pretty consistent. He was the consistency rank of number eight. So that's great if you're drafting him as your second quarterback. The issue with Brock Purdy, and I think you will always have this issue, is the lack of great games.

He only had two games that qualified as great this season. He's not going to win you a championship.

The first month of the season, when they started out running, playing defense, they were only letting Herbert throw the ball 22 times a game on average. From that point forward, they had their bye week, and you saw 31 pass attempts a game. the rest of the season to a lot of success. I think they'll end up with a better weapon or two. I expect them to really try to get a tight end.

Maybe Tyler Warren, the rookie, I think he'll be associated with this team. Will Disley is fun. We love playing the drop.

This was, I would say, a pretty good hit for us in draft season. He was on our bust list in the ultimate draft kit. We brought up a lot of the similarities between Baker Mayfield's amazing rookie season when they then bring in Odell Beckham Jr. And it's hard to remember it, but sophomore year, he was the most overdrafted.

It's a guarantee that you're going to see a complete level up, which needs to happen to be drafted that high. And you just don't want to draft guys at the presumed level up that we haven't seen yet.

Yes, it was Joe Mixon, the same way with Josh Jacobs for Jordan Love. It was C.J. Stroud is playing good ball. He's doing what he needs to win NFL games. But for fantasy football purposes, he's not running the ball. And if the touchdowns go in the running game, which now with Joe Mixon instead of Damian Pierce, a lot more likely – That's just not okay for fantasy.

No, no. So that's that's freaky. That that's that's a scary one to me. And we'll be monitoring it. Patrick Mahomes might be out in Week 16. They still have a two-game lead on the 1C. By the way, Houston's the Saturday game this week. We have multiple Saturday games this week. And then there's a Christmas game the next week for championship week.

No, he won't. You don't think he's playing this week? I mean, active or not, he's the third, fourth string on this team. I mean, Chris Brooks has looked good. No, he hasn't. Okay. All right.

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1762.558

Yeah, we suffered for multiple weeks. All right, running backs. Now, I am, on first glance, not seeing Lloyd in this list, but I am seeing Jerome Ford at the tippy top of this list, who has a magnificent matchup, who, in my opinion, on film, watching him every week, has looked like not just a better runner than Nick Chubb, but a pretty... Good runner, receiver all year long. So Jerome Ford?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

183.494

I believe he switched over to mash reruns. Yes. I mean, I think that's what he put the theme song like that. Yeah, no, I think, uh, I think he was disappointed. I think that would have been a pick me up. Maybe you would have seen him today. Uh, but we don't know. We don't know when he'll be back.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1838.991

You also need to remember that before Chubb returned, when he was more of the full-time back, he was on pace for 72 receptions on the season. I think it's going to be Dorian Thompson-Robinson for multiple reasons. I don't think it does the team any good to put Winston out there anymore.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1855.021

I also believe that if you don't come out and basically say, hey, Jameis is our guy right after the game, more often than not, It's not that guy, so that can help the running game. I think Dorian Thompson-Robinson can help the running game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1881.394

I don't think the numbers back that up.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1901.587

I disagree. I disagree.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1913.359

James Winston was on base for 700-plus attempts. The offensive system and the focus on the running game, which is what made the Browns running backs valuable for years, was predicated on them not throwing the ball 700 times a year. And it's not like Jameis Winston. I mean, what'd they score? Six points or something last week? I mean, they have not been moving the ball down into scoring range.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1937.41

So to me, I'm indifferent on the total touchdown situation there. And I think they hand the ball off. I think it's a game plan built not around Jerry Judy, but built around Jerome Ford. And that's all I'm saying. I'm not saying that the offense will score more points, but I'm saying that he'll get more opportunities than he would have with Winston.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

1992.722

It's been – yeah, it's unfortunate that we've gone the direction we did with Winston. I mean, they scored seven points against Kansas City, 14 against Pittsburgh the week before.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2035.367

You're still very Winston Bullish.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2040.213

I'm fine with Judy, but beyond that, I mean, we just saw Will Levis get benched against Cincinnati last week, and I don't know. He's playing some pretty crappy football.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2058.628

Can you imagine Cincinnati? I mean, we probably have a line already. I'm guessing they are. Where's the game?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2068.143

Eight and a half point favorites?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2077.231

Yeah, so that implied point total, a lot of that's going to Cincinnati.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2085.159

Yeah, yeah. Tajay Spears. So that's the next big name. He scored twice last week. Tony Pollard re-injured his ankle. We don't have any further reports on Pollard. He's been playing through injury. He's been finding a way to start games even when it didn't seem like he was going to, so that could happen again, a la DeAndre Swift for the Bears missing practices. But Spears?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2130.536

It could be DTR and Mason Rudolph, which is the most likely.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2154.935

Kendra Miller, we talked about him already in the context of Kamara. If we get more, you know, it's hard. I would go hard in the paint for all three of those guys if they were somehow out there, which, by the way, they wouldn't be mentioned on this show if they were rostered in 50% or more of leagues. They're not.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

216.404

No, it didn't happen. I mean, Jefferson did enough for your team. Aaron Jones did enough for your team last night in the 30-12 shellacking by the Vikings. You... You know, Keenan got it going again.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2169.764

You know, probably a little bit higher in playoff situations right now, but, you know, Kendra Miller is still 16% rostered, and I would throw everything at picking up those three players. Put them in the order you think is most suitable for your roster, but bid everything on those three guys if they're out there.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2242.978

Yeah, the value of the backup is diminishing exponentially right now.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2249.949

Yeah. And even if you're not blocking, I would be dropping the backups for these guys who might have prolonged value.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2270.673

Um, what is the, is, is Ty Johnson is some sort of mirage or is this a new, I don't, I don't understand.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2312.97

I don't know what he is, man. I don't know what he is. Is he a third string running back?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2318.413

Is he the number one passing back? I mean, it

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2379.689

I think Gainwell might be in play as well as an add. Kenneth Gainwell looked good in the passing game, and we really don't know how banged up Saquon is. If you are Philly... you've got to make a decision on what's most important. He's got a lot of tread on the tires this year. Saquon does. And if you don't have him for the playoffs, you're in trouble.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2401.164

So as the practice reports go on, Kenneth Gainwell, in our league of records, somebody threw him on the roster Sunday morning. I believe it was you, Jason? Yeah, it was. Doesn't matter because Al kicked me out. And Barkley's not talking about his injury, but he missed the second quarter, and he only handled a little bit of work over the second half.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

241.71

Yeah, kind of got it going at the end.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2455.996

Wide receivers that you want to keep your eyes open for, to me, is Jalen McMillan is the headline.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2461.681

Yeah, because... Well, look at you. Because I don't... Look, we're coming in here every week, and we're repeating names that don't matter. At the top of the waiver list. So I want – if I'm going into the fantasy playoffs, I think that Jalen McMillan matters. You know, we've said Cuge for 1,000 weeks because guess what? He just keeps getting dropped and picked up and dropped and picked up.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2485.33

I'm not saying if Cuge is out there you shouldn't pick him up. I just think – You would pick Cuge up over McMillan, right?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2501.165

No, because I'm living in the vacuum, the single vacuum of a one-week situation, and I prefer Jalen McMillan this week than I do the Denver matchup for Cuge where Ladd McConkie's the target hog. It's a touchdown prayer for Cuge, and I think McMillan. We saw what Godwin did in the offense. He's finally getting the opportunity. Six for 75 and a touchdown. And guess what? We know what Cuge is.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2526.59

We don't yet know. what Jalen McMillan's potential is.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2540.6

Trayvon Diggs is out for the season now. I mean, this is a huge opportunity for Tampa. They're going to score a lot of points. Controlled weather environment. Not up in Denver. Figuring it out. A team that's kind of going down. That's just my... Is this like another McMillan touchdown guarantee? There's barely... He barely has room to score more touchdowns. He's scoring so many.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2568.049

So I'm McMillan, huge. And then beyond that, you know...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

260.343

boring, non-competitive. You knew both games were over instantly. Worthless game. That's the biggest part to me. You knew that the Raiders couldn't beat the Falcons, even if the Falcons tried to beat themselves. Oh, and they did. Kirk Cousins had 112 yards in the pick and a touchdown.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2616.37

I mean, they've been the last two weeks. Yeah, he's a rookie. So we'll disagree there. I mean, I feel like the baseline for McMillan is going to be higher. You know, Bateman is definitely a home run threat. He's had zero catches against Philly the week before, but then last week had the two touchdowns. So it's, I'm still McMillan, man. Sure. You also have the easy matchup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2640.255

We don't agree a lot today.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2661.721

Watson over Dobbs.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2711.374

I just want a shot at the way Ladd-McConkie's come on in the back part of the season. The fact that this is the Baker-Mayfield offense, that the running game is banged up and hurt. That's the way I lean. Now, none of these are – these are not must-starts. Nobody in this wide receiver category is a guaranteed must-start, although I do consider Cuge, McMillan, and probably –

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2733.889

Probably Bateman as, as flex worthy plays. Another name that you have to bring up is Malik Washington in Miami because Malik Washington, it's a, it's a San Francisco matchup, but he already caught five passes last week. They let go of Odell Beckham and Jalen Waddell is injured. And so you're looking at this situation where, you know, we caught what three more passes than Tyreek did.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2805.174

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2812.878

My dart throw, my – don't be surprised if he has a huge week and you didn't see it coming and he's still on waivers next week. Is Jalen Coker of the Carolina Panthers? That's Coker, Al.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2826.385

As you've always – as you looked up and verified. This is the deep threat for Carolina. Adam Thielen's going to be your underneath and your dink and dunk, but you've lost Xavier Leguette, and he's not really a deep threat type of guy anyways, and Jalen Coker is. Jalen Coker is a physical force. He played 80-plus percent of snaps.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2846.38

He had four for 110 in a touchdown against Dallas, and if you want to take a shot, because you are just ravaged by injuries, that'd be your guy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2887.697

Jason, I wonder what the kind of next piece of the Lions offense is going to be without Montgomery. Like, is there going to be more involvement from a secondary option or more involvement from Laporta? Like, I think Laporta could be more of a focal point where, look, you have to understand this team isn't going to just – they're not just going to run Montgomery packages with Gibbs every play.

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2911.201

They're going to do what is in their best advantage when it comes to structuring this offense. We used to know what they do. They go out with their huge, giant personnel and run Montgomery. That's not how they're going to use Gibbs. They may use them sometimes like that. but they're going to kind of conform to the personnel that they have, and Laporta is a weapon that's been waiting in the wings.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

2933.178

Maybe it's some Tim Patrick. Maybe it's Jamison Williams. I think we're going to see some different stuff. Maybe it's more Jared Goff in general because— I think it will be more Jared Goff.

3081.454

Target for the Jacksonville went to Brian Thomas or Brenton Strange last week with Mac Jones. It's a great matchup against Las Vegas, but I have gone through this exercise. I don't think that I'm going to sit Otten down for strange even if I got him on the waivers.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3104.044

I don't think I'm going to do that.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3128.432

I've been through this whole exercise. I knew bringing it up with submarine, any attempts of me getting Britain strange on the waiver wire in our league of record to fill in for, for, for Kate Otten. I've been through the exercise. And to me, it's the highest over under the week in the Tampa game. Who's going to score a touchdown?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3143.297

I mean, Britton Strange, if I told you a player got 11 receptions in a game, you'd be like, that's a dominant week. This was not a dominant fantasy week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3160.641

Yeah, it was 73 yards. He didn't score. The odds of them scoring are low. I'm not saying Britton Strange is going to have a bad week and he's unstartable. I'm just saying I'm going to go with the odds that Baker throws three to four touchdowns. And I'm just going to hope that one of them is to Kate Otten. It's not like they haven't taken shots to him.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3174.591

I'm just going to hope that that's the situation.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3183.643

Because of untapped upside that we don't know about.

3249.905

You know, that's going to be my defense this week in the semifinals. Cardinals are a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde on defense, but I'm going to just hope that even if, you know, if Bryce plays well for three quarters, one bad quarter from Bryce could be enough to support a good performance. My favorite defense of the week is the Packers. It's gotten even better.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3269.25

I mean, no Camara, no Carr, no Olave, no Buddy.

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3335.899

And then the Raiders against Jacksonville and Jacksonville against the Raiders. Both directions kind of work, although I wouldn't do it with the Raiders because I'd play Jacksonville defense if I'm desperate, but I wouldn't do the Raiders defense against the – Did you watch the Mac Jones highlights? Did you watch the Mac Jones bravado in this game?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3362.153

I believe that Mac Jones is doing the one thing that you should be doing in your situation. If you're a backup quarterback, by the way, he was, when you say, are there any highlights? He was a top 10 quarterback last week. He attempted 46 passes and he supplied, he supplied not Britain strange with 11 catches, but Brian Thomas with all those catches. I would say Brian Thomas supplied Mac Jones.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

I mean, Mac Jones threw for 300 yards. Mac Jones did what you're supposed to do when you get a chance. Don't come in and be a Desmond Ritter, Dink Dunk Fest. Just chuck it. Winston's done this for years. Flacco's done it. Come in and show another team. Mac Jones is playing for a job. Show another team that you could maybe be a starter someday.

Well, it's one of the best ways that I've seen strategically, and I've been around the game for a long time. If you run on first down, that is guaranteed to not be a pass by Kirk Cousins.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3435.754

You never know. They pick them out of a hat right before the game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3450.6

Well, that's going to dovetail poorly into this next segment.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3458.365

Because my streaming quarterback is Aaron Rodgers against the Rams. Following up on Difference Makers, the Rams defense is 28th against quarterbacks over the last six weeks, 31st against wideouts. A lot of risk there for me. I think there will be a lot of points scored in that game. So I think Aaron Rodgers is actually a streamable option.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3527.483

Yeah, I just—I mean, both. Both are fine. Both are in the exact same category. Both could suck, and both could be great. But Rodgers has got a couple good weeks in a row, and, you know, it's tight. It's close. Flip a coin. Don't play either. I mean, we're not in a position here, by the way. This waiver show feels weird to me in some regards.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3549.583

I know we've got to do it, and there might be a nugget here or there. Most people— Most people have got players to play this week. I mean, that's why you're here. I mean, David Montgomery goes out. You probably got a guy on your bench that's better than most of the guys you're picking up. Maybe you end up able to grab a Spears or grab a Ford, and that would be awesome. Ford would be outstanding.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

He can't do either of those if he doesn't get the opportunity to.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3570.354

But if not, maybe you're playing defense more than you're playing offense in some of these leagues.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

3585.849

Yeah, pick him up. Falcon, will you bring those in here real quick because we're going to close the show out. I forgot we had to show these off, but we do have some sweet swag. If you notice, there's a new custom helmet on the center of our table, and the folks at Green Grid Iron hooked us up with that. We have many helmets for the first time. These have been requested for years.

So if you want mini helmets, Jason's got the white one. I got the black one. They're all on shop ballers.com and we'd love to get them out to you so you can display them. They'd go nice right next to like a championship trophy.

He was firing phasers before Baker had lasers.

Yeah, I mean. He's got $300 million to comfort him at night. You know, if you're a Brock Bowers manager going into a semifinal because you survived his three for 35 night, you need to get on your knees and pray that it's not Desmond Ritter again. 39 passing attendance for Desmond Ritter ending up in three for 35 for your superstar tight end.

It's not that it's much better with Aiden O'Connell either.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

456.058

Yeah, this is like a factorial thing. This is like Gardner Minshew was much better than Aiden O'Connell for Brock Bowers. Sure, yeah. And then Aiden O'Connell's much better than Desmond Ritter, and Desmond Ritter's much better. Barely better than you.

And what I like about it is I can wear it, it looks casual, and then I can go, I can play some pickleball in those things. It's a performance jogger. It looks great. It's perfect for the low-impact workouts, or maybe I'll play some one-on-one, maybe that high-impact workout too. Or maybe you're doing some yoga or some stretching, or even sitting at the desk in the studio.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

487.442

Okay, yeah, and I'm glad we broke that down. And we had an injury to Sincere McCormick. That was a monstrous injury. you know, significant situation for fantasy managers because he left with an injury. It went to Madison after that. He did nothing with the seven carries he had before the injury.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

506.779

And so, um, you know, this is one of those things where like in a few years, we'll probably be saying like, do you remember that guy sincere McCormick that was relevant for like a week? I doubt we'll remember his name. Probably not moving on.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

I mean, it would be bad in second.

553.16

You walked right into that. Well done. Yeah, I'm going to walk off too. Okay. Another one? I'm on baseball fire, baby. It's pretty good. It's pretty good.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

564.126

Yeah, I like it. J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets. We talked yesterday about Unready to Roll, incentives for players. We are talking about incentives for teams coming down the stretch. I talked about Houston. They don't have a real shot to change their playoff position. It's what freaks me out about Joe Mixon this week is that

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

586.936

Joe Mixon had another one of those hip drop tackles happen to him where that's where he missed three games earlier in the year. So as far as we know right now, he's going to be active. But if he was banged up and I was Houston, I wouldn't play him. So we talk about team incentives. We talk about player incentives. I'm going to talk about a pride incentive.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

604.788

I'm going to talk about a trend that is happening right now. And this is Difference Maker. So I thought about this. And to me, it is the Jets. Aaron Rodgers has been a top 10 quarterback. Each of the last two weeks, I was so close to throwing Rodgers, Adams, Wilson in against the Jags last week in our DraftKings lineup. I was a coward. I didn't do it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

630.507

Fortunately, still am not to shame, mercifully. But believe it or not, Garrett Wilson and Devontae Adams right now are top. They are top. Two of the top 12 fantasy wideouts.

And Rodgers in his last four games, that's a full season pace of 4,234. You know, that's a 34-4 touchdown to interception ratio. That's more vintage Rodgers. We don't know how banged up he was, but the matchups, the Rams – And then Buffalo, who, yes, they win, but they give up 40 a game?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

715.885

Yeah, but they've been bad in terms of giving up total points, and I think that Rodgers and Adams are a couple of guys at this stage of their career that, look, you're not playing for a playoff spot. But there's a lot of pride there. There's a lot of pride in showing some signs of what they were capable of on the offensive side, and we're seeing it.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

737.562

And I think they're going to be difference makers down the stretch, playing the Rams at home, playing the Bills on the road, where the defense has been awful.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

767.804

Yeah, he cares about being a legend on the field.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

775.129

On the cusp, but I don't think he's a – Well, he's in an ideal situation where he literally can focus on himself because there's no playoffs. Exactly.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Waivers + Playoff Pickups, Monty Fallout - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/17

835.546

So I'm sure Al Borland is really thrilled to hear that as he has Devontae Adams rostered, made the trade midseason, and I applaud it. We're a keeper league. We have players that even when they're injured, they have value. He managed to turn the Brandon Ayuk injury into Devontae Adams for the remainder of the season.

Andy, literally as we were talking, a statement came out from Jerry Jones. Am I defending him, by the way? You were so super wrong.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

1252.176

You're just explaining his position. There's a lot of A lot of words in this statement of just, we did this, we looked at everything, the staff, and we, whatever. But I think the most important part, the climax of this is, prior to reaching the point of contract negotiations, though, it became mutually clear that it would be better for each of us to head in a different direction.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

This is Jerry Jones saying, this isn't money. This was not money. We decided before that, before talking about money, everybody, and everyone believes you, Jerry.

1316.477

Yeah, we don't know if that's in their protocol or not. And they also have an insurance against the cap for injury. I don't pretend to be an expert on this, but what I saw was that some of that cap money the following season would come back. So yeah, maybe they do get off the hook a little bit here thanks to the second re-rupture of the Achilles.

And that might sound like, why is this news? If you hadn't heard or seen him posting things all over about basically wanting out of playing for the Dolphins, including putting his face on the Antonio Brown photograph where he left mid-game, peace out, peace sign.

I'll tell you, before we get into the footy awards, I feel like there should have been an extra category this year, which is... It's like the best show moment, but it's the best off-air show moment of the year because we've had a couple things around the office going crazy. Are you sharing this? Yes. Yes, including Cricket Gate. Cricket Gate just happened.

I do not either. A lot of times, I'm going to be honest, I have cheated and looked. I have logged in, and I know who wins and by how much, and I don't have a clue.

I told Andy we move offices and we clean house, hire a whole new staff. Yeah, this is like Raiders-style stuff. You start all over. So we go out to the producers. I tell Falcon he's fired in one hour. So it doesn't matter whose fault it is. One hour from now, he's fired. Just completely, like, I put a timer on my watch, and I don't care if it was Josh that did it. We own this company.

We ain't living with that cricket gate. Josh, you're going to have to have that on your conscience. And then we tell everybody, because we pay for lunch every day here at the studio, and then we tell everybody, We're not paying for lunches anymore. Not while the cricket's happening. No, no, no.

1883.934

All right, Andy. Well, I will read this one for you, even though it is your award. Please do. This is the Fantasy Reapers. Man of the Year. Which player's injury hurt fantasy managers the most? You had a four-pack here. Christian McCaffrey, Isaiah Pacheco, Chris Olave, and Chris Godwin. I'll be honest. The Christians, they all get hurt. Oh, that's right.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

1907.298

And then the only one who wasn't named Christian is Isaiah. I mean, come on. You're not too far off there. All right. So drum roll, please. And the winner with 88% of the vote. I think we know. No surprise. The first pick in your draft a lot of times, Christian McCaffrey.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

1932.271

He's totally fine and could have played in the playoffs. If they had made the playoffs, he was good to go. That is going to help him stay near the 101 this next year, and you know it's true. He won't be the 101, but he will still be in top of first round. Sixth pick.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

1960.63

That's fair. That's fair. He won't be at the 101, but he'll be in the first round. You'll get to a point where everyone's willing to take the risk of – Because you've had this before. You've had Christian McCaffrey disappear for years. Yeah, and he did it two years in a row. Right.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

I think Tank Bigsby did hurt Travis Etienne this year. But what is insane is that, you know, it's like, it feels like. Tank Bigsby was awful. It feels like.

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2155.913

It is juicy. I wish it happened earlier in the season. We've talked about And we've got the data to back this up. This has been a tip in the past that did not come true this season, which was that the waiver wire is usually so much more valuable in weeks one and two. Those guys hit and stick oftentimes. And that is true over the last decade. It wasn't really true this year.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2178.872

Some of the biggest waiver wire pickups early on in this season They just turned out to kind of be flops like Isaiah Likely was, you know, he was the big spin, the big spin. Then it turned into not much. Bucky Irving was later in the year off of waivers several weeks in and totally worth it. All right, Jason, you are up. I'm up with the fantasy quarterback of the year.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2202.085

Remember, this takes into account the draft position, the big game performances, impact to fantasy teams everywhere. Last year was Dak Prescott with the winning award, and this year the nominees are... Oh, that drum roll comes after?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2231.707

Where's the rail? All right. The nominees are Lamar Jackson, who was the quarterback one. Josh Allen, also awesome, is the quarterback two. Burrow, fantastic. Jaden Daniels, rookie sensation. And the aforementioned waiver wire wonder, Baker Mayfield. And the winner is... Can I get the drum roll, please? The winner is... Wow. Jaden Daniels. 39% of the vote.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2261.577

I thought for sure this would be Lamar Jackson. I thought it'd be Lamar. That's who I voted for. I actually did vote for Jaden Daniels. It's QB 14 all the way up to 40. Yeah, that's awesome. And he was a rookie. What's the percentage? The percentage was 39%. And who was runner up? Runner up was actually Baker Mayfield at 21. So people were taking into account. Drafting them late.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2280.911

You know, because, you know, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, they were awesome. But you're spinning a second and third round pick for them.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

That is fantastic. Well-deserved. He was awesome this year. Fantasy-tight end of the year. Last year, Sam Laporta, a rookie. This year might be another rookie. Brock Bowers, who was drafted as the tight end nine, finishes the tight end two. Trey McBride, drafted at three, finished at three. Jonu Smith, undrafted, finished at four.

This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp. Let's talk flags for a moment. Not the kinds the refs pull on the field. I'm talking about something else. Green flags in relationships. Stuff you look for in a partner. You know, for me, you want to look for enjoying being around them. You want to look for shared common traits. It's different for everybody. Relationships take effort.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

And if you want to make things work... I'd suggest therapy. It's a great tool that can help you navigate all sorts of relationship problems. And therapy can help you tackle other problems too. I've had therapy for years and you go through highs and you go through lows. Sometimes you're stressed. Sometimes things are going well.

I think Brian Thomas was the breakout because it was far more surprising. Yes. Like mobile quarterback, you could see Jaden Daniels coming. Brian Thomas was the most surprising breakout.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2740.663

I think it makes complete sense. Yeah, because it makes no sense. Well, it makes sense because Jaden Daniels was like he was the best. He was the rookie of the year, but he didn't break out as much as Brian Thomas did because Jaden Daniels was already drafted, you know, as the second pick in the NFL supposed to be great.

I mean, it's just like just small nuance. It's how in the NFL, you know, the MVP is not the offensive player of the year type of voting. So that's just how I see it. All right. Where are we? We are to the comeback player of the year. Which fantasy player amazed you the most in their return to relevance? You had J.K. Dobbins come back from the Achilles.

That's who I thought it would be. I actually voted for Jonathan Taylor.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

2994.855

Yeah, the Jonathan Taylor thing is interesting because it was – his running back 17 finish in the first round of the playoffs was the fumble through the end zone. And if that one play was just – he was so destructive. He was so good on the field through the fantasy playoffs.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

3011.51

That one play where it was really a breakaway touchdown, it wasn't a bad play, turned into a negative eight-point loss for you that – He would have been probably a top five running back, then the running back one, then running back one. But as someone who exited round one with Jonathan Taylor, maybe I shouldn't have voted for him. All right, we are to the biggest awards, the big of the big.

It is time for the nickname of the year. Last year's winner, Brett Rippin, Rippin Farts. But this year we have the Senator, Ben Sinnott. Sam Darnold as the prodigal son or the sacrificial baby.

Estime Lauder from Audrick Estime. Kin Bone, Kenneth Walker. The Dominator in Jared Goff. Jen Nags for Jawan Jennings. The Bidet, Tyler Bidet, Laser Mayfield, Richard, Dick, Rashad White, and of course, Mike Sticky Gsicki. But the winner is... Laser Mayfield. Really? With 77% of the vote. Oh, that's not even close. Well, you voted for three. So, actually, the runner-up, Jennings, was at 52%.

Oh, that's right. And Kinbone at 33%. So, Laser, Jennings, Kinbone. Yes, sir. Stupid Walker didn't get hurt at the end. I think if Jennings was earlier in the season... Because Lazer, we got that the whole season long. We had the drop.

Yeah. I mean, the thing is, is going back, one of the big knocks on Brian Thomas now appears to be almost a feather in his cap, which was he only had, like, the one breakout year of production. Because he was later, I think he played basketball, and so it was like you just didn't see enough in college to know for certain that he is going to translate.

Right, right. Did that open it up for him? Is that what made it easy? But then once you have rookie season in the bag where he dominated the way he did with Mac Jones, you're like, this is the guy. So I love that hot take, just having him really be one of the elites of the elite.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

427.71

Yeah. but they won instead the Broncos made the playoffs and my hot take is that the Broncos next year win the division over the Chiefs on the back of a superstar rookie running back This team is really good. I think Bo Nix is legit, and they have no running game whatsoever. They really need an Elvin Kamara. Yes, exactly.

Sean Payton has always had a group of really strong running backs, pass catchers, whether it was Ingram or Pierce Strong or Deuce McAllister. They need it all. He's always had a good running game, and that is so abhorrently absent from the Broncos. I think they fix it this year.

I would say one of my bold predictions... was almost going to be that next year will be Mike Tomlin's final year as the Steelers head coach because it looked bad down the stretch. I think that that city is getting sick of not winning. I don't believe it will get better when Tomlin leaves.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footie Award Winners + Hot Takes for 2025! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/14

I don't think Tomlin has had the personnel over the last eight years post Ben Roethlisberger to really make a run in the playoffs. He hasn't really had the quarterbacks there.

The game was really, really, really close the entire first half. They went into the half. It should have been tied 10-10. They missed the walk-off field goal at the end of the half. This was whatever second-half adjustments were made. The bills were much, much better. That was a second-half thromping. The whole game wasn't. I was like... I was kind of proud of the Bills, or of the Broncos.

I'm saying that they met with, if you remember, when all the Montgomery news was coming out, it was, Oh, man. Surgery. Montgomery is toast. He's out for the season.

Footballers AMA + Worst Picks Ever, Big Gulps - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/9

497.503

The question of what is his ceiling is, it's extremely difficult. I didn't know this was going to be our question today, but there was a tweet I saw earlier from Jacob Gibbs, so shout out to him. But Bucky Irving and Alvin Kamara, which was in 2017 when Kamara did it, the only two running backs to top 1,500 scrimmage yards with a snap rate under 50%. And that is...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footballers AMA + Worst Picks Ever, Big Gulps - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/9

523.735

For every fantasy running back, everything comes down to the decisions of – well, not everything because talent matters, but the decisions of the coach because it's pretty rare that there's two running backs out there on the field at the exact same time, and the running back that is out there – That's a coach's decision.

My unbelievable frustration with Rico Dowdle when he's getting these 20-plus carries, running great, and then they're like, ah, but inside the goal, when we're close to the goal line, we've got to get somebody else in there. Those are the big decisions for seedlings.

It's like looking at the Jameer Gibbs situation where him and Monty, they're splitting, and they're both being awesome, but it's like Jameer Gibbs, the first month of the season, he wasn't a top 10 running back in any game in the first four weeks. Then you would have these stretches where week 7 and 8, running back 1 and 6, but then it's down to 18 and 17.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footballers AMA + Worst Picks Ever, Big Gulps - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/9

840.251

It wasn't until David Montgomery was gone that he rattled off the four consecutive weeks where he was running back 3, 7, 2, and 1. So the ceiling, I don't know that we... It's going to be, I think, a very light version of Detroit where Bucky's going to be drafted really high. Rashad White will be later. He'll have his own value. And then Bucky Irving will be very good.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Footballers AMA + Worst Picks Ever, Big Gulps - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/9

Things over the offseason for the 49ers could change drastically. They might stay the same, but there is a chance they can change. And if things change for the Raiders or the Cardinals, it does not matter. It's actually better for them, in my opinion. Marv gets better. They add another potential wide receiver weapon for the Cardinals. Now the offense is better. Now they might score more. Exactly.

Yeah, so Whittington last year was a sixth-round pick. He had a good training camp. He was one of those players where the buzz, like the drumbeat, got louder, and then he had a pretty good performance in the preseason. So he was a player that was – I mean, he's a sixth-round wide receiver who was now on the radar for the Dynasty community.

And then he had a couple opportunities, you know, like week four and five, where he actually played the full allotment of snaps, 97% and 92%. Six for 62 in one of them, seven for 89 in the other one. This is, like, this is by no means a declaration that Jordan Whittington, that's his job for sure.

But with the depth chart the way it is, Whittington feels like the most natural to fill in, as in Cooper Cup's role. Yeah.

So knowing what he's still capable of if they funnel the offense through him, like he could still get a bunch of volume. He had three weeks from weeks 8 to 10, 12 targets, 16, 12 targets where he was the tight end 4, 2, and 1. And then he absolutely disappeared. So it's in there. He could still do it, but it will not be a week-to-week – So we'll see what the ADP shakes out to be.

Yeah, does his role diminish a little bit, especially with how good the team looks when it's just Jameer Gibbs? But on top of that, if they're not going to score – I think they scored like 50-something touchdowns this year. If you're not going to do that, that's where Montgomery takes the hit.

You also factor in the Houston Texans, their final offensive line grade from PFF was 29th. And not that – I mean, the Bengals – It felt like it. The Bengals are 30th, so it's not that a quarterback behind a terrible offensive line can't succeed. It is just – certainly harder. And C.J.

Stroud, as all the accolades we were wanting to give him heading into year two, he's not where Joe Burrow is at this point of his career. So it's just – I think that the line was the bigger problem for me and just the – I mean, the crazy success rate that C.J. Stroud had as rookie year going down the field, that was going to regress, but it went to a place where we didn't –

dare project because it would be too sad to project that much of a regression. So I think that it comes down to that. They got some young guys on the line. Can they actually improve? They did not last year, but can we have an offseason and a new coordinator figure out what to do with the talent?

I mean, 12 seems okay to me. I think that's okay. He was still – Give me some names around that, though. He was still good. I mean, you had to throw the draft capital away once we got here, but it's like week one, 20-plus fantasy points. Tua gets hurt. He's gone for a month or so, and then over the – like from week eight on, he's still very usable.

So he is a restricted free agent. We're talking about Jalen Warren, which means that the team can – the Steelers are the team that they're negotiating with the first. Jalen Warren will be able to go out and talk to other teams and get a contract offer from them, and then the Steelers will be able to say, like, we're either going to match certain things.

Yeah, the Bengals committed a pretty big whoops-a-doozles. The T. Higgins one last year, I get it. As a franchise, you're not sure you want to commit to this guy who's been good on the field, but is he worth the money? He keeps getting hurt a lot. Jamar Chase, on the other hand, was, what are you doing?

Yeah, I would love to have Bucky in my lineup. I'm going to go with my guy, Brees Hall in Buffalo. We have a complicated relationship. Brees likes to put me out of the playoffs, and then it's his time to shine. And so he did that last week. Last week, he was back up to 77% of snaps, 20 opportunities, including six targets. And the targets are really the key here because Buffalo –

They are the most terrible team at pass-catching running backs. They give up the most running back receiving yards of every team, second most running back receptions, and receiving touchdowns allowed. They give up the highest explosive run rate. Buffalo, the matchup is good. The weather should be bad there.

That should be another one of those kind of watch out for rain games, which means I think there will be a lot of dump-offs for Brees Hall. In the games where the rain is bad, heavy and wind is high, running back fantasy usage and value usually goes up. So I will start Breeze this week.

2002.674

Yeah. No, Ladd is in everybody's lineup. If you've had him, he's just been too consistent. He is the clear leader of this wide receiver room. The matchup, I expect it to come early. The Patriots don't give up a ton of fantasy points to wide receivers, but it's not because they shut wide receivers down. It's because they're usually at the second half in a game script where

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Starts of the Week + Week 17 Breakdown, RAIN Alert! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/26

2026.577

they're not needed that much. So maybe it's good that it's a smaller line here of 4.5 points for the Chargers, and maybe the Patriots can make it a little bit more interesting.

Jalen McMillan instead of Chase? No, you're not going to move off of those guys at all.

That might be a name where I get a little scared about a rookie –

No, I get it. I'm just saying if you add in the weather. Like we were talking about, you don't pivot off of Jamar Chase. You're not going to pivot off of Burrow, but... A Cortland Sutton, if it turns out that this is the crazy downpour, high-wind game, if that happens, I feel like I would rather start a McMillan.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Starts of the Week + Week 17 Breakdown, RAIN Alert! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/26

2203.184

Cortland Sutton is a guy who you could say kind of got you here, but really, if you're in the championship, he didn't get you here the last two weeks of the playoffs. You had to overcome him, and I think a lot of the managers who have him might be going, I'm looking for another option.

Yeah, I mean, he's been awesome. I do think if he's active, I would play him. I'm not quite as concerned. I mean, he's been practicing, so it's one of those where if he was not practicing at all, not practicing, DMP, and then, oh, he's a surprise active, that gets you worried. But the fact that he's actually been at practice, been doing this, and they're going to need him in this game.

Yeah. Buffalo is known for having some of these bad weather games. And so this is why this is part of why I like Brees Hall. The running game, the dump offs, the short screens, those those type of things that might be good for, you know, if you're looking at the trying to make light of this very confusing wide receiver core for the Bills. That says to me, Khalil Shakir, that's his type of game.

There was some talk about it. No, this is how you can have these teams be watchable, is you play them against each other. When a JV team plays an NFL team, that's bad football. That's a waste of everybody's time. When a JV team plays a JV team, you can go to a high school football game and have a good time. Nobody can run fast. So I actually think this could be a surprisingly good matchup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

the utilization of Kendra Miller was the biggest problem. Because Kendra Miller is, I still think, he's a much more talented running back, I believe, than Alexander Madison. But Alexander Madison's getting the work and Kendra Miller was in a full committee, even with Alvin Kamara out of the way. That was what was really upsetting. Because I do think if they gave

The whole work to Kendra Miller in a matchup like this against a bad team, he could succeed, but not if he's getting half of it or a third of it.

And this is a, you know, this is another matchup where I think you can play him hard to off of a disappointing week last week, but you, you just can't be that recency biased with a wide receiver because you're, you're always going to have inconsistency.

No, it's funny when you can say that the quarterback is a pretty good start but don't start any of his receivers because it's really a matter of the groundwork. Jonathan Taylor and Anthony Richardson should both have a ton of rushing yards and

rushing touchdowns um that's that's pretty much it on the other side I mean this is a pretty easy game because I Tyrone Tracy didn't practice on Wednesday with the ankle but I I think that's just probably rest he had neighbors didn't either toe injury yeah and he had he had work last week so I I think I'm okay with Tracy and neighbors and I'm okay with Anthony Richardson and Jonathan Taylor and the Colts D

Yeah, I was going to say, he only had four carries in the whole game. Lamar Jackson, if you said he only threw 10 completions and carried the ball four times, you'd say, well, that was a bad game. Except he ended up with 87 rushing yards, a rushing touchdown, and two passing touchdowns. Great game for Lamar Jackson, and Derrick Henry was a monster.

I told him 45. No. I don't blame you because there are very few players. It's like Jamar Chase or Alvin Kamara. You go, there's a chance for a 45-point game. It's probably not going to happen, but there's a chance. So until you're up 50, you will be scared.

which insinuates that they're still wanting Carr to come back, and I would imagine that when Carr comes back might be when Olave comes back. I mean, if it was me as a coach or an organization, I don't really need Olave trying to lift up Spencer Rattler and be getting a bunch of murder balls. Not that Derek Carr doesn't throw his own.

I'm going to go Baker Mayfield, championship week against the Carolina Panthers. Laser. Laser Mayfield has been, I mean, he's the quarterback six right now in the course of the year. He had a lull when he was dealing with his injuries and Mike Evans' injuries, but he's back. He was great last week. Carolina's defense is 30th in scheduled adjusted fantasy points to quarterbacks.

They're dead last in fantasy points per drop back using zone coverage. So I think this is a great matchup for Baker. And the nice thing is with Bryce Young playing better ball, you might actually need Baker to keep throwing as the game goes on, and that's the hope.

Cool. I'll take Saquon Barkley. It's interesting that Bijan is the preferred because the argument to me is not – Bijon at number one. It's Jameer Gibbs or Saquon Barkley. That's how I lean, and I'm looking at things. Yeah, the long touchdowns are hard to repeat, but if anybody's going to repeat them, it's Saquon Barkley, who...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

1261.833

frequently has his longest carry of the season is is 40 plus where where Bijan is just no I don't what was Bijan's longest let me know we looked at 37 and 38 as a rookie like and which is that's still great I mean home runs at the running back position are not frequent we can get too wrapped up in Oh, this guy, he's only getting 25 is his longest run.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

If you're getting 15-yard carries all the time, then that's fine. I don't care if you're not getting 50-yard runs. But Saquon Barkley, I'm still confident despite him being 28 years old.

I get the discussion around Gibbs as well, and we'll move on to pick number... Most yards before contact since 2016, which I... That's a heck of a performance by the offensive line. It's like, look at last year with DeAndre Swift. I mean... They were doing the same stuff, but Swift is not. He looked like a good player for a second.

1527.357

Kyle just gave us some pretty interesting information for the three running backs because we're talking about length of run. So percentage of carries that went for five or more yards. Barkley was at 39%. Bijan's at 44%. And Jameer Gibbs is at 41%. So that's what we were talking about where Bijan is consistently getting the smaller chunks, which – Those add up.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

1552.068

Then 10-plus yards, the percentage of carries that have done that. Barkley was at 13. Gibbs at 17%, which is wild. And Bijan's down at 11. And then the big boy carries, the 15 or more rushing yards per touch. Barkley was at 7%. Gibbs at 10%. Bijan down at 4%.

1647.045

Cool. I'll take Jameer Gibbs. Mike's just getting the leftovers. So, I mean, these are fun exercises because the weight of the first round pick is massive. Yet, if you're a seasoned fantasy football player, you know you don't win in the first round. Not very often. But you certainly... can set your team way back if you whiff on the first rounder.

1677.751

So being where we are of getting Gibbs at six, looking at these top six players, that's nice. And then people ask us, where do you want to pick? Where do you want to pick in the first round? And the answer is generally figure out who the elite, elite players are. And then towards the back of that is where I like to be because then I just get a slightly better second round player.

And in spite of me giving the warning of in the first round this, you can really hurt your team. If I'm in this range as of right now with the news that I have as of this recording, I would take Christian McCaffrey. I would be willing to do it. I would take on the risk. And what's wild about McCaffrey is last year, when we finally got to see him after the double –

2069.72

Achilles tendonitis coming out of the of the bye week you were like that dude that is not good that is not good Christian McCaffrey and yet the first game back against the Tampa Bay Bucks put up nearly 14 fantasy points and a half uh scoring format nearly 13 the next week uh has the really bad game against Green Bay and then in Buffalo in a quarter of the game

Had 7.7 points in 25% of the snaps and is one shoestring tackle away from a breakaway touchdown that instead turned into his season-ending injury. He will be the focal point of the San Francisco 49ers. You don't have Debo taking away... Look, carries from Debo, the short area stuff from Debo, I think that those targets go right to Christian McCaffrey, so...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

2125.666

It's a massive risk because the burns from last year are third degree that some people may never, ever recover from, and I don't blame you. But at this point of the first, a running back that could finish overall number one, I'm going to go with it. Not just finish number one, but lap the field at number one.

I gave you, like, a lot of time there to just say the name. It's between two players for me. My highest, just because of how fantasy football works, it's gross. But I would take A-chan over Derrick Henry, despite hating – Not hating is too strong of a word, but just being frustrated with what was going on in the field for the Dolphins and HN.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

2429.475

It felt like he didn't deserve all those points, but that's how the scoring of fantasy football works. You've got to lean into it. And then the wide receiver, my bro love for Nico Collins is unending. It started so hot, but it didn't finish very well. I think there are reasons for the fall off of Nico and the Houston Texans over the second half of the season overall.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

2457.005

I would go, if I'm on the clock here for real. You are. I'm going to go A-chan here. Okay. I'll go A-chan because there's still a few. I know that, well, I guess it's 12, so I get another pick. But with Nico, Brian Thomas, London, there's still some really elite wide receivers here. And running back is, not that they aren't great running backs here, they're just a different tier.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

To me, the two targets would be Jordan Love and Dak of. It was a disappointing season for Jordan Love, but the way that the pendulum swung two years ago, it was running backs did not score for the Green Bay Packers. Then this past year, especially over the second half, it was Josh Jacobs gets all the touchdowns. I think that that

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

3113.136

that will regress to the mean, and maybe even skew a little bit towards the pass just because of the way that that offense runs. But so between him and Dak, I think you've got some good late-round targets.

It's not just that. It's a... You need the other quarterbacks to be bad, to keep and maintain your advantage. We're giving the numbers of they've got to hit this threshold so they are worth the pick. Well, now you've got to look at the field. There are years where the field is subpar, and there's only the two guys at the very top.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

654.786

And if you have those quarterbacks, you have a big point advantage on a weekly basis. But like last year, you know, Lamar was crazy with the – I'm looking at six-point right now. Sorry to switch formats, but he's over 30. Burrow's at 27. Baker's at 26. Allen's at 25. Jaden's at 24. Goff is at 23.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Mock Draft! Top 12 Picks for 2025 - Fantasy Football Podcast for 2/20

675.719

Like the discrepancy between Lamar and Goff is huge, but like there's a handful of guys who are keeping you competitive, and then the opportunity cost of the other players – The wide receivers, the running backs, the higher probability of the second round pick hitting. Second round is too much for me. If you want to get into a third round discussion, okay, I can see it.

Yeah, he is a pocket passer, so we, man, by we, I mean me, really hope that T. Higgins is back for Joe Burrow. If you like fantasy points from Joe Burrow, you should also hope that T. Higgins is back. Joe Burrow with some other options of Jamar Chase can still be great.

280.452

I felt like everything was just – everything was being designed downfield. There were just too many plays where there was no real escape hatch for Sam Darnold. He probably should have ran more. Yes, he held the ball way, way too long on tons of them. But I felt like a lot of those sacks were – Go look at the routes, and no one is actually open.

Jared Goff's a QB2 streamer. That finished at seven. Yeah. He's the streamer who can have gigantic games. When you're desperately looking at the waiver wire, and you're like, oh, this guy has a good matchup. I hope I get 200 to 250, and hopefully we get two touchdowns. When you stream Jared Goff in the right situation... Four touchdowns is not impossible.

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

It's wild to go from the locker room video that was circulating around, the whole team just showering him with champagne and professing their love for Sam Darnold.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

3710.792

uh, very terrifying to me is last year when it was, Oh my gosh, what happened to my homes? What happened to the Kansas city chiefs offense? He averaged 17 and a half points per game this year. He averaged 17.6 points per game. He was like, his numbers are Close to identical. Last year, almost 4,200 yards. This year, 3,900 yards. So, I mean, the yardage actually went down.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

3740.863

He went down one passing touchdown, same touchdown rate. But everything for Mahomes is who the Chiefs are now next year. Because they're – They can win the Super Bowl this year. Don't know if they will, but is this who the team is now? Because this is not it for fantasy.

4067.463

I think you go C.J. Stroud. Is it the sweet unknown of Bo Nix? No, it's not. It's the fact that Bo Nix is going to give me 400 rushing yards. We were excited about Baker's numbers. 400 rushing yards. Yeah, it's not Lamar Jackson. I get it. Those are great numbers. Those are really strong numbers. They're juicy. You love them. For fantasy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

4089.964

So week five on, week five was when Bo Nix had his first good fantasy game. And those first four weeks, he's a rookie quarterback who – this isn't Jaden Daniels where you look – there's a rookie quarterback who – that guy might rush for 800-plus yards. I'm very interested in that.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

4109.44

So you're not expecting that from Bo Nix, but from week five on, he's a 4,000-yard, 36-touchdown pace with the 400 rushing yards. Those are – Those are pretty exciting numbers. I'm going to be in on Bo.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

4222.951

It definitely can be. My pushback on Stroud would be Like, he was really, really fun to watch. Like, this was an emerging quarterback, the breakout of Nico Collins. But the truth that we talked about of Stroud is he really had two fantasy games. That entire year. He had a couple where he almost hit that 21 mark where he's close, but most of his damage was 42 points against Tampa Bay.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

4253.421

So, I mean, 42 of his 275 points was one game. That was my concern with Stroud. I'm less concerned with Bo Nix.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

429.435

Yeah, and that's the thing you have to remember, though. Sam Darnold and the Vikings won 14 games. I know the last two were a nuclear meltdown, but he won 14 games. And the two teams that he lost to at the very end of the season, those teams also beat him in the regular season. So is this just a Dan Campbell and Sean McVay? They know how to attack this team the way that they're structured.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

4299.581

With the amount of quarterbacks hurt last year, the points per game would be a little bit more important.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

4508.214

So also if you don't know what game we're talking about, we were playing draft Kings pick six, which it's a great game because it's just, it's you against numbers. And like there's, There's stat lines out there, and you pick a handful of players, and you say, are they going to be more or less than the numbers given to you? It's a really, really fun game.

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

4529.042

Excited to be playing it over the playoffs here. I have a Jaden Daniels one in mind as well. I'm taking the over on one-and-a-half passing touchdowns. Kyle just shared it for us. Jay, the Detroit's implied team total is 32-and-a-half. The game is at 55-and-a-half. Daddy! Absolutely outrageous number there to hit 55 points. Jane Daniels, all I need is two passing touchdowns.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

4554.944

And then I'm going Isaiah Pacheco, less than 43.5 rushing yards. He... He looked like a guy who came back way too quick from the injury, gets hurt again. I mean, thankfully they had the bye week because the way that Andy Reid was talking about Pacheco going into the playoffs is like, I think we're going to be good here. So I don't like him in this game. You know, he came back.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

The TRUTH: Top 10 Fantasy QBs + Scramby Daniels - Fantasy Football Podcast for 1/16

You, you've got a bad week last week and without CD lamb against a really good Philly defense. And this is going to be a conservative team, probably offensively a little bit because I don't expect to have Jalen hurts their low scoring game. Um,

confidence because of those players being like it it matters yeah so wait you're telling me that there's a team implied for almost 30 points who's lost two of his main what are you doing McMillan looks like a good option I think he is a good option even maybe even better than James Connor I think he's he could be he could be they'll be close I uh I'm sure it'll go down to the wire

Just to go back for a second, just to illustrate how bad it will be for whoever wins this game. I mean, because these are two 3-12 teams. You look at the record, you've got New England 3-12, Jacksonville 3-12, Tennessee 3-12, Cleveland 3-12, Vegas 3-12. You're going to you have the chance to go from like the second to the like out of the eighth night. Yeah.

I mean, it's it's like these teams should be trying to tie or something. But but they won't. They won't. And so who do you think is just like last week? We said with the Raiders game, similar situation. It was which team is worst coached. That's who's going to win. Raiders won. So is this Jacksonville? Jacksonville wins this one.

1928.331

Yeah, Tony Pollard... Like, I'll play him if he's active. You'll play Tony Pollard? Yeah, over Kendra Miller or Gibson or anybody? Yeah, if you're that low, I think you're right. Over ETN. I think if Tony Pollard is active, Tajay Spears is still a player you can start. Tony Pollard was active the last two weeks when Spears was the running back 5 and the running back 12. Exactly, wink.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

1949.884

Last week, he missed practice the whole week, Pollard did, and then played, but played... A minority of the snaps ceded a ton of work to Pollard, who is used both around the goal line and in the passing game. So in this matchup against Jacksonville, I think Spears is an okay play.

2125.177

What's crazy is DTR, his... Oh, it was average at the target. I don't know if you could call it a superpower, but his only ability... His strongest trait as a quarterback is... Is the wheels, is to run. And if he's got a calf issue and he's a little bit immobilized and he's going to be a pocket passer...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

Yeah. I don't know how you can start him. I am starting him in one league that I just kind of have to, but I don't want to.

And if you want to make things work... I'd suggest therapy. It's a great tool that can help you navigate all sorts of relationship problems. And therapy can help you tackle other problems too. I've had therapy for years and you go through highs and you go through lows. Sometimes you're stressed. Sometimes things are going well.

2209.826

We know something you don't know. Yeah, I know. It does feel like that. It's like you're going up against a 13-win team at home, and they are the underdogs, which seems pretty crazy. Now, the Packers... The Packers have been a great team in their own right.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2227.099

You've got to remember they lost Jordan Love for a little bit of the year, and so as an 11-win team, obviously these are two very, very good teams.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2238.835

I love that this game is in a dome and has a 48-point over-under. On this week, this is the game that I want. Now, I do worry a little bit because you have two good defenses here, and it's a divisional game. So does this turn into one of those really disappointing defensive slugfests? It could. But I also look at this game as one of the few games on the slate this week

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2263.055

where it's like you could get a back-and-forth offensive output without worry about rain. Even if the first half starts slow, once teams start scoring and the other one has to catch up, these are two teams that generally do. If the Vikings are down, they're generally going to air it out and catch up, and same for the Packers.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2298.485

It's probably somebody like Jaden Reed. Or Dontavian Wicks. Christian Watson has not been practicing this week. Dontavian Wicks, the matchup against Minnesota, the deep passing, on that secondary when you can't run on them is great.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2311.769

So that's my dart throw of the week for if you need a guy off of waivers that you could throw into your lineup, you know, if he was available instead of my Jerry Judy, I would 100% put Dontavian Wicks in over Jerry Judy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2536.889

Okay. I think it could be. The fact that the over-under is held and hasn't moved due to weather fears, that's good. And Bijan is going to get a ton of work in this game, especially if there's bad weather. His rushing attempt line is 18.5. So Bijon should get plenty of action, and that's really where people have beaten the commanders is more on the ground versus through the air. Did you guys see?

B-Rob had a very bad game last week, obviously. Lost the two fumbles. It was against the Philadelphia Eagles, who are so tough. But even just a week prior, he had 21 carries, three receptions. He was the running back 24. The game previous, he was a top 10 running back. I think B-Rob is a player that is fine to start.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2940.587

Yeah, that's definitely a good thing. Even to keep the game competitive. Usually you worry about you just can't run on the Lions because of those injuries. The last few weeks, people have been running pretty well against them.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

2988.763

That is who I would go with, and you're bringing up the exact reason why. Debo's receiving lines at 48.5 versus Juwan Jennings at 64.5, and while last week you had Debo very involved in the running game with a handful of carries.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

3004.335

Yeah, but the additional work in the running game I feel like put him maybe where I would start him over Jennings, but that was without Guarindo. What if Guarindo's out? Would it flip it? Yes, it would. If Guarindo does not play, then I'd go Debo.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

In the last three weeks, seven targets, ten targets, seven targets. That's the most important thing to me. Because you had some stretches earlier this year where he had good games, but it was because it just happened to have touchdowns and it wasn't really involved.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 17 Matchups + Championship Choices, Weather Worries? - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/27

3063.143

The involvement over the last little bit, the loss of David Montgomery, meaning I think they really need to rely on Jared Goff for the passing game a little bit more. Like Chig or Laporta, I'm going Laporta.

Well, don't forget the place where Caleb would hold the ball for 15 seconds and get sacked. Towards the end of that game, I kept thinking they're going to have one play. Just one play where they block someone. I was like, it's going to happen. Caleb's going to have someone blocked and it was just every single play, the ball is there and so are the defenders.

Dude, you got to wait one more week, Cowboys. Yeah. What's all this? People pay tickets to come see me play. I think that was CeeDee. This is the difference. This is why I thought when we had the quote from John Gannon about

is Connor going to play Connor wanted to play and he's like we're going to do what's best for Connor and best for the team CeeDee Lamb wants to play but the Cowboys are actually doing what is best for the team and for CeeDee Lamb which is protecting himself from himself he shouldn't be playing football for the NFL it just stinks that it's championship week for a lot of people if I were CeeDee Lamb and I knew they were going to shut me down putting out a quote like people pay to come and see me play so I'm going to play that's exactly what I would have done

Pride and being there for your team. Does this mean that, like, I haven't seen any report on Derek Carr. But, like, if Olave's practicing and Kamara's trying to make a push to play. And Olave might. As I'm saying, are they just going to have their whole team back other than Taysom just unexpectedly for no reason?

So it's possible. So it's possible. So you're telling me there's a chance. I can't remember what team it was. This game is... Look, I'm not... I'm playing Allen. I'm playing James Cook. It's all these things, but this game gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Really? I do. He's been better. He has visibly looked better to me on the last couple weeks. He's been, in the last two games, about 10 points.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2802.269

Yeah, I totally agree. But I think that ETN's like I think he's safe to give you eight points or so because of the penalty.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

2809.452

And then on the other side, what do you do with... The Raiders have quietly given us running back production. It's been gross, but we're back to Alexander Madison as the primary guy. His DK rushing line is only 46.5, which that sounds about right. But he has managed to get into the end zone a few times. If you're desperate, are you looking at Madison or Travis Etienne?

Madison, over the first portion of the season before he got hurt, missed a bunch of time, and McCormick had his games, he was still getting targets. Six targets, three, one, three, five, three, five. I don't know. I think Madison is disgusting in its bottom of the barrel. You're hoping you don't have to do it, but you're sitting on Tony Pollard. You get really bad news heading into the weekend.

Much to my chagrin, because I did message you guys how – Annoyed. And look, this is the me problem. This is a 100. Maybe other people had the problem too, but them rotating their running back.

With Cooper Rush. That has been – well, he had plenty of games with Cooper Rush catching passes. I mean, Rush has been the starter since week 10. It has been lately, though, that it has disappeared. So, Mike McCarthy, let's get the passes dialed up here. But also, you're welcome, Mike. Yeah. Freaking idiot. Are you talking to yourself?

367.216

yeah i can do it i can i can do this because i'm sean payton and just and it worked for for a bit there and then uh then they never a running back never caught momentum yeah the running backs got tired from all the running on and off the field it's funny it's like they were sprinting off that is a distance to cover you're doing wind it's literally more than they run when they get the ball on the vast majority of occasions so you're talking about fresh legs like

I have Trey McBride because I'm told he's going to score a touchdown every single week at 6,200. Even if he doesn't score a touchdown, the dude is just PPRing his way into greatness. I'm running 12 personnel out yet again. Currently have Brenton Strange in there at 3,500. I'll probably have to pivot to Chig because he's like right around the same amount of money should Strange not play.

842.793

Andy is the underdog. And my final decision comes down to a spot where it's – I have Jerome Ford. Right. And it was, oh, I don't like that DTR is the quarterback, but hey, he should be getting all the work. He's got juice. It's the Bengals. Yeah, and it's the Bengals. I love my running backs against the Bengals. I just want pieces of that. And I didn't want – I'm sorry.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

866.207

You didn't want this decision. I didn't want Ken Walker to make the decision hard for me because I think he is – even starting him is so difficult. A healthy Ken Walker against Minnesota is like, oh, are we going to get one of those real crappy where he's like two yards per carry, maybe he catches three passes and it's just nothing? Do you remember when – Staring it down is really, really hard to –

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 16 Matchups + Mike's Back, Wheel of Shame! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/20

889.102

to start him do you remember when Kenneth Walker played against the Detroit Lions and that tough run D before they lost their defense and he was the running back two with three touchdowns yeah no he can but what was his what was his line aside from the touchdowns he was 12 for 86.7 yards I didn't recall four receptions for 36 and he could that's where it's hard because Ken Walker can do that Ken Walker can also be 40 yards on 15 attempts and nothing else

I am a fan of that now, too. I think, you know, before most everyone was just streaming and you had your cable company or whatever, it was not as fun. But when you can just kind of put both up on the screen and swipe to the left or to the right to change your audio, it's pretty fun. It's only good if one of the games stinks.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1340.978

My lineup changes every day, though, so I can't share it yet. That's true.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1347.984

Yeah. Yeah, they'll say this is inappropriate content.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1430.672

Yeah, it is tough. I think that the advice is you want players in this game. Because of the injuries to the Detroit Lions defense, what we saw last week from the Buffalo Bills in that Rams game when they were on the road, it was just this insane output of scoring. You want players in this game. It's tough because Amari Cooper last week, 14 targets. That's fantastic.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1455.638

But there wasn't Keon Coleman active. There wasn't Dalton Kincaid active. Now you've got more kind of mouths to feed. And it's a little bit more difficult to say with, you know, emphatic certainty that Amari Cooper is going to be great. I do think Amari Cooper has a good game.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1472.157

The fact that he's been fully integrated now, I would want to play Amari Cooper coming off of 14 targets in the highest over-under of the season against a very injured defense with two awesome offenses. So when I'm looking at this game, I want these ancillary pieces. That's why I picked up Keon Coleman. It's risky. It's a gamble. But you just think, which game is going to have a ton of touchdowns?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1495.545

And this game certainly is at the top of the list this week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1543.487

I actually do have confidence in not playing Kincaid.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1547.728

Yeah, so Dalton Kincaid before the injury, 31 yards, 32 yards, 24 yards. That is garbage.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1557.709

That's just unusable. And keep in mind, like 32 yards one of those weeks came on 10 targets. It hasn't worked. It's been out of sync. I'm not using the playoffs as week one with his first week back from injury to throw him in.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1633.758

Yeah, I would have Amari Cooper just from the utilization, the fact that he's more downfield, gets air yards. In a game like this, I would go Cooper, Shakir, Coleman. But Shakir's got a pretty high floor.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1677.887

He was the number one quarterback. Yeah, three last week. He's been throwing some touchdowns, and this is the type of game. He has at home in a dome.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1709.711

Yeah, I imagine they will score four touchdowns at least. And if that's the case, you know David Montgomery gets one and Jameer Gibbs gets one. That's like law.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1738.924

Update here on Jeremy and I's matchup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1742.666

So I have no one on Monday night as of this moment, and he has two. And on your roster, but go on. Correct. He has two guys named Bijan Robinson and Justin Jefferson.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1757.155

So I'm going to need to be up by 50, 60 points, something like that, and I will not be. So, Jeremy, congratulations.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1803.126

All right. You got me. Come on. What a great joke. This is no time for joking. Yeah.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1826.683

That's all. Yeah, he's obviously been a very squeaky wheel the last week despite winning.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1835.931

What his wide receiver number is on the year?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1839.814

I do not know. I would guess about 10. Mike? Yeah, he's a top 12 guy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

184.978

If you didn't watch the game, it was a very wet, rainy game as well. Heavy rain pour. Um...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1914.234

I would lean towards Amari Cooper. Same.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1962.844

Yeah, George Pickens missing this game actually hurts, I think, a lot of the players. Because I worry about whether or not the Steelers will be able to score enough points to push the Eagles to be able to need A.J. Brown and Devontae Smith. So it was really sad that he's going to miss this game. You know, the over-under, I was not surprised to see it come in at only 43.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

1983.592

Yeah, and I would lean the under. These are two good defenses and one offense is missing its primary weapon.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2014.062

Yeah, to me, that's more like DFS. I'm not going to play him in my playoffs. I think there's better options.

Yeah. Yeah, I think that's fair. So that's not a must start. I will say that in Marv's games, he's pretty hot and cold. We've talked about the difference between those games where he gets the touchdown and the games where he doesn't, but it's not just because of the touchdowns. Usually the games where he gets the touchdown, he just – has a much better game all the way around.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

215.174

So, well, I'll get there early. I'll get there. The show's just starting. But yeah, it was it was a wet game and it turned into one of those occasional divisional slugfest where the two defenses are up for the task and the weather mixed with the fact that these teams see each other often. Just the offenses could not get anything going.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2153.72

More yards, more receptions. And so if you're thinking, is this the type of game that will be good for Marv, it does line up pretty well to be a successful one.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2187.424

Yeah, I think that that is one of those that makes sense. Keenan makes complete sense. I think DeAndre Hopkins can make sense there as well where I would probably move Marv in ahead.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2225.289

I think he's a flex option. I mean, you you saw last week Zach Charbonnet completely go bonkers on the Arizona Cardinals in Arizona. Now that. I think that's more the Seattle scheme. Yeah, I mean, that seems more like a one-off because the Cardinals defense prior to that game had been very good against the run.

So I don't expect big things from Ramondre, but he gets enough volume where he's a flex option.

2304.969

Yeah, Ladd is in. I know he's a little dicey because you worry, oh, will he re-aggravate the injury? It's a fair worry, and that could be a tiebreaker if there's someone else that you have that's a really good wide receiver and a high tier. But without that, I would definitely be starting Ladd McCulloch. He was... So good. He's so important to this team.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2327.718

You have Baker and the Bucs can often put up points against good defenses. So if this turns into a shootout, you had three top 24 performances in a row right up before the injury. Two of those were, you know, the wide receiver 12, the wide receiver 10. Ladd should be in your lineup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2396.928

Yeah, I would say the head can spin. The projectile can vomit.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2454.87

Yeah, I would rather play Ertz than Otten right now. Ertz has a touchdown in three straight games and a much better matchup. This is a difficult matchup for him. And also, you know, I talked about how Baker... This often sometimes can really surprise and come out and look great, especially with Mike Evans back. However, the Chargers have, you know, this is a team that likes to hit the under.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2478.345

This is a team that plays good defense. And so I have Baker on my roster, and right now he's not in my lineup.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2487.532

Yeah, I'm scared of Baker and Kate Otten in this.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2528.484

I think it'll be extremely heavy Rashad White. Sean Tucker might be used around the goal line. I mean, he's the type of player that can come in and vulture a touchdown, and so you could get lucky in that way. But again, not a good matchup for projecting that. So it would be Rashad White as like a, Super confident start, and I would not want to play with Sean Tucker.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2671.384

I'm hoping that he is. This is your voodoo dark magic.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2676.966

Yeah, I mean, the truth is when we were talking about earlier in the season that he had so many rushing opportunities and yardage with no rushing touchdowns that that that was going to regress to the mean. And the touchdowns would come.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2690.151

And now it is flipped so far back, I think it is sound advice to just say it probably is not going to stay where he's scoring a touchdown to three touchdowns every single week. And that has been hurting the passing game and the fantasy value of some of these wide receivers. So this could be the game. You know, it makes sense to me that...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2711.098

Jordan Love would be able to have a better game, and maybe one of these wide receivers like Jaden Reed, wild card, goes from goose to golden goose.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2738.103

How would you order the wide receivers? And I guess, who is your number one? Is it still Jaden Reed off the goose? Is it Christian Watson?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2848.777

Does Reed get a touchdown? I don't know. Okay. I was one that – I haven't watched the game yet. Well, but that's what I was asking because I was hoping it tingled the little feathers on the back of your neck or whatever you have.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2898.786

All right, and then DK Metcalf, JSN are both of them ahead of the Packers wide receivers?

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2904.39

And in the opposite order of how I just read it? Yeah, JSN, I mean, wild.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2916.639

For sure. The last six weeks, the Packers are 25th against running backs. So over the course of the season, they might look a little better, but recently they've been giving up points. So Charbonnet's must start.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

2929.788

Yeah, I mean, it's very important for NFL purposes, standings, playoff seeding, all that.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3021.857

Was that the game where they were crushing the Bears? I believe they were killing the Bears, and then the Bears had some crazy, like the last two or three minutes of the game somehow got it back to overtime and then lost.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

306.678

No, your season is definitely not over. There are gooses every single week, and while it's not helpful, the gooses will more often be on the losing team. There are plenty of times that you can overcome a goose. You will make some changes. Now, you don't have to. You don't need to get crazy. But look at your projected total and your opponent's projected total.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3068.572

Sam Darnold's a fine play. He has been a good quarterback for this whole stretch run. So it's going to be, you know, hopefully if you had Brock Purdy or Sam Darnold, you chose Darnold. You know, yesterday that you went with Brock, or not with Brock Purdy, but with Sam Darnold. I think Sam Darnold is, like, Andy, you've got Justin Herbert as your start of the week.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3094.905

It's a good matchup against Tampa Bay. I would rather start Sam Darnold.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3157.259

Oh, yeah. If that's an easy pivot, that shows – please try to bench DeAndre Swift.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3206.538

I do think DJ Moore is an okay start. Since the transition was made at coordinator, they've utilized him better. The matchup is really nice. His explosive ability means that you could end up with a very big game. So, you know, you talk about adding volatility in. DJ Moore, I mean, it's not. Yeah, that's fair. He is someone that can be boom bust.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3227.395

He can go out there and score five points, but there's not a handful, there's not a ton of people that can go out there and score 25 points. You could see that from DJ Moore in a game like this.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

329.764

If it was close because you were a five-point underdog and Cooper Cup had 15 projected points, now you're a 20-point underdog. Okay, well now maybe you look at your matchup and say, this flex option player is the wide receiver for his quarterback. That's not going to catch me up. Maybe I pivot to someone else or...

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3317.552

Yeah, he'll throw a touchdown in this game, which is great – Probably. Yeah, that was on purpose. I think he'll throw a touchdown in this game, but that's good news for Drake London. His receiving line is at 66 and a half, and we've talked about he's been pretty decent for fantasy.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

3337.864

He's not been disappointing through this Kirk Cousins terrible stretch, but it hasn't been great because there have been no touchdowns. I think Drake gets a touchdown this week.

3391.917

Let's say you had Cooper Cup, okay? And you're starting. You don't want to. Yeah, okay. Okay, and so right now you've got Kate Otten in there.

3491.401

Jacoby Myers is great. I mean, the Falcons right now on the season, they're dead last against wide receivers. Jacoby Myers, now it's Aiden O'Connell looking to play. I would like to play Jacoby Myers. I think he's a good play this week.

Dude. Debo would be a big story if it wasn't for the fact that hopefully everyone was already benching Debo. Oh, man. Because Debo had seven targets and two carries. His opportunities were great. He finished with 19 combined yards. It's rough, man. I feel like they have to cut him this offseason.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

It really did seem like Debo should go on a run to take over. In the years prior, when one of those guys has been injured, the other just becomes a sensational star.

But it looks like it's gone. It does not compute.

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

746.528

Yeah, I mean, I brought it up a little bit when I made him my start of the week yesterday that he missed practice. We need to monitor that because obviously him being healthy is important. Tajay Spears, I think, would actually be a pretty good play if he is the only guy. He's not as talented as Tony Pollard, but he is talented in his own right.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

764.053

And if he gets all the work with, you know, fresher legs, that would be interesting. Obviously, this isn't ruling him out just because he's missing practice. He's had a lot of workload this year, so just keep monitoring up until game time.

Fantasy Footballers - Fantasy Football Podcast

Week 15 Matchups + Inside Thoughts, Wheel of Shame - Fantasy Football Podcast for 12/13

It's not the best way to do it. I have always... I don't even know and I don't try to remember because I know it doesn't make sense. But then when I try to think through it and the farsighted means you can or cannot see far.
