It's time to dominate your fantasy league. Off to the races! And he stays on his feet! He's just gonna go the distance! Now, here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie, and Heath. Let's make some trades. Buy low, sell high. Previewing Thursday night football. Can the Bucs score enough points? Can they keep up with the Dallas Cowboys? We'll discuss that game. Try to get to your emails at the end of the show. And fellas, we are playing our first game show of the regular season this week. Which one? What do you want it to be? Who has more. Uh. Doesn't count? No, who has more. Well, that's on CBS Sports Network. I guess that's not really. That is a game show. It's America's 35th most popular fantasy football-related game show. But today we're doing Fantasy Jeopardy! Oh, good! Yeah, it's very exciting. All right. Damn. You guys making trades? Putting out offers? Active on the trade market? I actually need to run something past Heath about one of my dynasty teams. I don't know if this is the appropriate time to do it. Yes, absolutely. What is Dave trying to get away with? What's Dave trying to do now? When. I think I know the answer to this question, but. Let's say you enter a year where you've got a team that you think can compete and you find yourself with only one win and seven losses after the first four weeks of the season. At what point do you wave the white flag and say, okay, I'm going to tank. I'm going to come back strong next year, stronger than ever. Is it too soon to do that when you're one in seven and you look at your opponents for the next four weeks and you go, okay, I think I can beat these teams? I think what determines draft order is a big part of it at first and then how many tanking teams do you have. I think part of the problem with everybody loving the 27 class so much is that in a lot of my leagues there have been three or four teams that weren't trying from week one. And so, if I don't really have a chance at a top three pick, then I'm probably going to wait a little bit longer before I start tanking. All right. I think I've got a pretty good shot at a top three pick if I tank now. All right. Including the top pick. Okay. So, I have. Go ahead. Yeah, yeah. Enough about me and my dynasty team. Nobody cares. Okay. I gave a stat yesterday that I thought was so interesting on CBS Sports Network. I went back and I did some more digging. Kenneth Walker has the most rushing yards through the first four weeks of the season in at least 16 years. Okay. I looked at the 15 seasons before that and nobody had as many rushing yards as Kenneth Walker does. So, I said, how far back do we have to go to find someone who actually had more rushing yards than Kenneth Walker? Kenneth Walker through the first four weeks. Well, if I had just gone back one more season to 2010, I would have found Arian Foster was the last guy to rush for more yards than Kenneth Walker. He had 539. I think Walker has 537 through the first four weeks. Foster finished that year averaging 24.7 fantasy points per game, but more with catches than Walker. Walker's on pace for 2,282 rushing yards. Foster didn't quite keep up the pace He ended up with a pace of 1,717 rushing yards. But that's it. Best start to the season in terms of rushing yards for a running back, Ken Walker, since Arian Foster in 2010. He was the number one running back that year and he scored 91 more fantasy points than RB2 who was, of course, Peyton Hillis as we all remember. Let's do some news and notes here. Lane Johnson retiring. Really shocking and he missed week four for personal reasons. He's retiring. He's the Eagles' right tackle. Hall of Fame type of career. The Eagles were 122, 63, and 1 with Lane Johnson playing and 18 and 30 when he didn't play. Dave, you have a stat about Jalen Hurts, I believe, without Lane Johnson, right? It's over the last three seasons and includes this season. He has not had 20 fantasy points in six of 10 games without Lane Johnson. Now, keep in mind this week, not only is he going to be without Lane Johnson, but he's also going to be without Landon Dickerson and guard Cam Juergens is in the concussion program. I'm not sure if Juergens is playing guard or center these days, but it's ugly. Three-fifths of that starting offensive line for Philadelphia, which was supposed to be the biggest strength of their offense, now gone against the number one defense in the AFC, the Jacksonville Jaguars. And I watched Markel Bell, the right tackle. I watched his tape about half of the game. He's filled in. He's a rookie. He's six foot nine. He is from Miami, so I was very curious to see how he did. And he's fun because he will just destroy people at times, but he really struggled in pass protection and actually just confirming with PFF, they ranked him 71st in pass blocking out of basically 75 tackles that played some snaps in week four. So it was a problem at times. And the Rams, he's had a tough matchup against the Rams, and sometimes they would send pressure around him and it just seemed like he didn't know what he was doing. It was the first start of the career, and he was like, I'm going to go for Markel Bell. Yeah, the bet's taken a really nasty turn the last week or so between the Lamar Jackson injury and everything falling apart in Philadelphia. The bet is over. I know everybody's been. It's over. People have been picking up Tyreek Hill, but you probably saw the story with his wife taking the stand and alleging the abuse against Tyreek Hill, and I do wonder if that affects if teams are going to sign him because it's pretty grotesque stuff that he's been accused of. Seattle is not signing Joe Mixon. Lamar Jackson has only an outside chance to play this week, according to Ian Rappaport. They play Sunday night at Atlanta. Jaden Daniels is on track to start this week against the Giants, according to Mike Garofalo. Two injuries that happened super late in week four that we haven't seen anything. We talked about Ramondre yesterday and we seemed to express some optimism that he'd be fine, but I saw that he was on the video of the potential injury and it's just one to keep in mind. Ramondre Stevenson this week against the Raiders. I think we know it'd be a great opportunity for Travion, for Ramondre missed time and Chris Olave got hurt late, like one of the last plays of the game in a blowout. Did he stay in the game though? No, I don't think so. I think he came off and I'm pretty sure Vele caught the touchdown with Olave off the field. Not 100% on that. So Olave and Ramondre will keep an eye on and Tampa Bay plays tomorrow night. Chase McLaughlin, their kicker, he missed practice. So if you have McLaughlin, you might want to make a switch and Colts edge Arden Key is out three to four weeks with a hamstring injury. Niners defensive lines really banged up, but they could get edge rusher Michael Williams back this week. Ladd McConkie day to day. Rashawn Slater, the left tackle for the Chargers has a high ankle sprain. Right tackle Joe Alt. I think it's a neck issue for him and safety Derwin James is week to week as they host the Denver Broncos this week. Let's do some fill in the blank. My favorite by low is blank. George Pickens Garrett Wilson Ladd McConkie. Oh, okay. I think Pickens and give me 30 seconds on Pickens. Dave, give me 30 seconds on Wilson and then Heath give me 30 minutes on McConkie. Okay, Jamie. I mean, look, he's off to a bad start. We know there's so much potential for him still. You know, at some point he's going to have a big game. It could happen against the Bucks. Their defense just isn't and something I think that the Cowboys fear challenging and hopefully they just have enough volume because of what the offense from Tampa Bay brings but uh he's just too good to be producing at such a low level and at some point the you hope the targets will start to balance out a little bit as CeeDee Lamb just continues to dominate everything there but you know again he's healthy he's giving you a few big plays he just hasn't given you a few big fantasy games and those will definitely start to pile up for him I would agree um I work I'm gonna ask Scott Turner about that on Wednesday's reality versus fantasy Garrett Wilson ran 18 routes in week four Bears totally dominated that game Jets barely had the ball they didn't even convert a single third down I wouldn't worry about it if you've got Garrett Wilson but the person who has Garrett Wilson in your league might not be listening to this and they might be nervous about what happened in week four so make a low ball offer make a medium ball offer and get a quality number two fantasy receiver on your squad while he's a little bit discounted Heath so I think this is the time of year it's like with the buys starting especially like you've got to target those one and three and oh and four teams that have guys that aren't playing this week you can get them at a bigger discount than you should be able to and lad McConkey certainly one of those guys that is fantasy manager probably not having a good time um Vlad specifically the big problem for him has just been not being on the field he's played more than half of the offensive snaps once so far this season if you look at when he's been on the field though he's averaging 2.13 yards per route run 10.76 yards per Target those are both better than his career averages so maybe he misses a couple weeks they've got a week seven by maybe maybe they take that long Jim Harbaugh didn't or I guess the right Harbaugh yeah uh didn't sound as concerned about like a long-term absence for McConkey so I think when he gets back the other thing is the other receivers haven't stepped up in his absence so I think when he gets back he's going to be peppered with targets he's been the only good thing about this offense except for maybe Keaton Mitchell um could be a great wide receiver too in the second half of the season okay yeah I mean I have other concerns about McConkey like his his average route depth is way up he's not playing in the slot as much as he used to and with a team that can't protect their quarterback I don't love that but I mean he's getting double teamed a ton I totally get what you're saying Heath I mean he he I can't get past that week one week one was so good five catches 82 yards and a touchdown on seven targets and he left after three quarters so it was really encouraging stuff but now they have like all these offensive Lancaster's and the most traded player right now we can stay on the Chargers the most traded player is Omarian Hampton and I just saw someone say I traded Omarian Hampton for Luther burden is that a win or a loss push yeah it's even maybe a little bit in favor of Hampton just because Hampton's are running back I think I feel like you guys would probably agree I think Omarian Hampton has the potential to be the biggest bust in fantasy he's up there he was in a three-way split in week in week four he barely catches the ball and I'm saying this because he was obviously a very high pick right a top 15-ish pick uh things look terrible right now for Mario Hampton I'm not really seeing the light at the end of the tunnel I didn't expect to say this at the start of the season but I look forward to when they fire Mike McDaniel the new play caller features of Martin Hampton a little bit more but it's not even just that it's like it's like he only runs up the middle basically they can't block at all especially they're terrible up the middle Keaton Mitchell looks like he wants to be you know looks like they want him to be some factor and and again they're not using Hampton in the passing game all these things could change they could start throwing a ball to him I guess but I'm not I just not seeing a lot of encouraging things with Hampton I saw a Steve Hyde former uh South Florida Sun Sentinel colonist said that this is Mike McDaniel's way of trying to prove that Tua was actually better than Justin Herbert he he's gotta at least try and change what he's doing because he's become predictable because every time it's Hampton in the backfield defenses are just stepping up to to stop the run between the tackles and almost every time they use Keaton Mitchell it's to the edges either an edge run or you know a flare pass out into the flat it's it's just it's too predictable and it's shocking it's jarring actually that the Chargers with Mike McDaniel is is just this predictable and so I agree like he's either got to go or Jim Harbaugh has got to take over and and I did think that they got a little more run centric toward the end of their game against Seattle and yeah some penalties really helped the Chargers make that game closer than it was but they were able to get some things done on the ground and I was critical of Hampton going into week four I thought he looked a little bit better in week four even with the bad blocking but it's it's a mess right now and people are basically selling low on Amari and Hampton and I understand why I just I wouldn't give him away getting Luther burden Foreman trade is fine getting someone even lower than that like on the trade value chart who's lower than Luther burden um Josh Downs John Diggs Carnell Tate for now I'd rather just have Hampton than those three okay and Hampton yeah I mean it was encouraging that they got the run game going a little bit at the end and this week they play a Broncos team that has really struggled against the run so hopefully they can oh my gosh I was looking I was going to look at my Amari and Hampton team to see if I could make a trade and I'm facing Heath and I'm a 31 point underdog right now what the hell you must have a teteroa or a chief I have Kelsey but that's not enough to uh what league is that Hampton Superflex oh that's yeah that's uh that one turned out okay for me that was the league where I waited forever on quarterback and took Bryce Young and CJ Stroud oh I'm facing Bryce Young this week that's good I like that I just put panic I put pinnix in for him and I'm up 30 and still a 31 point favorite so all right well you know I'm three in one I got I got you buddy um all right my favorite sell high is coming up after this commercial break we'll talk about the players we want to sell high and we'll keep looking at that most traded list and try to come up with players to trade away for these guys we'll be right back on fantasy football today I have got a great product for parents of teenagers if your kid is between the ages of 13 and 17 download

amari and hampton saquon barkley malik neighbors third chuba hubbard is four maybe people think he's a sell high let's see who you guys think is a sell high my favorite sell high is blank let's go dave heath jamie i'll take the easy one alvin camara uh derrick henry i'll take the easy one aaron jones that's an easy one too yes yes yes three running backs yeah yeah all right so jones is just you know jordan masons should be back pretty soon i mean maybe but still he's been awesome he's also older and even if you know mason's still a few weeks away i know they're by coming up in week seven um there's there's still the potential of you know you know jones breaking down and we don't know if mason is even going to you know be the one to be the second guy there but i think you're just looking at he's been amazing uh in the last three games and if you can turn him into something great like i would trade aaron jones for george pickens personally if i could pickens i would trade a five dollar bill for a 100 bill if i could do that but if it's aaron jones and a good wide receiver you're selling high and alvin camaro yeah i know you're trying to sell a nickel yeah i'd like to turn this nickel into a hundred dollars as well people are running back people are desperate for running backs at least with alvin camaro he's got a little bit more leeway before travis comes back so i i guess i could say that in my defense but you can take aaron jones and somebody else and try and get george pickens that that's smart thinking would you trade would you trade aaron jones for lad mcconkey oh oh hell yeah of course i mean you say you're trading a five dollar bill for a crumpled five dollar bill here's the thing he's he's playing he's playing well right he's running well um he has nine catches in his last two games and he could just still be the lead back when jordan mason comes back yes he's not gonna have 20 carries but right he's got like an 85 percent rush share and a 24 percent target share since jones went down like there's just no way this keeps up since agreed since mason went down okay yeah uh and by the way he's he's the fifth aaron jones on the most traded list right behind chuba hubbard okay so alvin camara aaron jones yeah yeah camara scored two touchdowns anytime a running back like this has a good game in the fantasy stat box you try and turn them into something so alvin camara and a receiver for george pickens alvin camara how about alvin camara and maybe a little something for jaylen coker a mecca bucca the only thing i would say with if you have camara and you know what you know what it is right it's like a rental so do people in your league too but they're just desperate for a running back he had seven targets they throw more than any team in football he might just be you know a pretty solid ppr rb2 for the next three games before they're by right i'm not saying you shouldn't sell i'm just saying like he don't give him away i don't think he could be and i would i wouldn't give him away yeah all right uh he's derrick henry yeah i gotta make a little stronger case for this one obviously but you gotta you gotta get something a little better than you would get for aaron jones or alvin camara but he's he is the rb4 on the season once again and i know that we've been like taking different turns at being skeptical about derrick henry over the last three years and he's always just awesome i think there's some real warning signs um this we were worried about the run blocking from this ravens offense coming into the year because they lost linderbaum they lost for card and now they've lost multiple offensive linemen to injury he's averaging 1.01 yards before contact per rush attempt by far the lowest mark since he joined the ravens he's still averaging 4.2 yards per carry the defenses he's faced have collectively given up 4.3 yards per carry for the season so they've been worse when they've not played him than they've been when they've played him and the falcons look like definitely the best run defense he's faced all season doing facing that defense with tyler huntley a quarterback could be a little bit gross i don't think derrick henry's going to be a bust the rest of the way i think it'll be right around rb12 but i think he's the type of guy like if you've got some holes in your roster and you want to trade him for a running back who right now is maybe averaging three or four or five fantasy points per game fewer than henry is and try to plug one of those holes by getting another player another two players in addition to that henry's the type of guy that should get you multiple starters and i don't think he will be as good rest of season as he's been so far uh what so someone asked in the chat trying to what running back can you trade derrick henry for well it's it's not straight up so it's it's derrick henry for giovante williams and a starting wide receiver or derrick henry for chase brown and a starting wide receiver it's it's that it's that type of move who's an interesting one is um is judkins right like what would you first of all you guys buying judkins because been involved in the passing game um brown's offense looks a lot better than we thought so yeah go ahead go ahead i would say the first two guys i gave you um or like i'm just adding a starting wide receiver to get and giving up derrick henry if i'm getting john judkins then i should be getting a like i think this guy could be a top 12 wide receiver yeah okay and then what about chuba hubbard i mean how much worse is chuba hubbard than derrick henry because it honestly wouldn't surprise me if he had a better year and that's just me being high on chuba hubbard or high on something else i think he's right in between the guys i gave and judkins okay so could i get chuba hubbard and a top 18 wide receiver or 20 wide receiver what if it's a top 30 wide receiver with chuba what if it's a buka who i think is also a good buy low by the way yeah i'm not feeling that that makes me want to puke i would yeah no chance you're trading for those two okay what if it's coker oh that's interesting chuba and coker for derrick henry i'd rather have the panthers i think it's not desperate in the r for a receiver and it's really hard to make a trade like that with caroline on by like is your depth really that good that you can afford to well if you're if you're forward thinking and your team is in good spot you could you know take the hit in week five and hopefully manage your way through a win still and then you have what the hope would be is two stars moving forward i mean the unfortunate thing with coker is he's got this injury track record that he's got to prove he can get over and what happens and i don't think it's it's a significant factor by any stretch but jonathan brooks is still going to return at some point has there can i get a chuba and burden he's right around that same range as i take uh and i take chuba and burden okay and you'd probably take chuba and coker too but you're wincing at abuka and that's okay they're all like in that like wide receiver 30 range on the trade chart you know i'm just saying with chuba hubbard has there been a player who has you know increased his value more than than chuba hubbard and this guy so 23.7 14.4 15 and 23.7 is a player that's been a player that's 25.9 ppr fantasy points i'm assuming he has outscored derrick henry but it's probably pretty close well there there's there's three guys that are kind of in a similar situation it's a sliding scale on what you think the backup's going to do when they're healthy but you have chuba hubbard aaron jones and jaylen warren who are all performing very well in a very similar way because they're getting so much work without any you know capable player behind them so what happens to warren when dowdle's healthy you you referenced this yesterday about mike mcdaniel's mike mccarthy saying uh you know that they're going to be you know still sharing time you can anticipate that with the viking situation that the panthers one is hard to fathom that you know jonathan brooks is taking chuba hubbard off the field exactly that's the one but he he might he might just you know take what's a top 10 running back and make him a top 15 guy which is still important yeah i guess so but we don't even know when he's coming back he's correct yeah the the other two timetables are a all right so those are some buy lows and sell highs and just some more trade context and yeah heath uh i was wrong derrick henry about 12 more fantasy points so far than chuba hubbard adam you have that page still open which one running back fantasy points where's ashton genti on that list he is six points behind five points behind chuba hubbard he's uh he's rb10 does it worry anybody that all of his fantasy production is coming through the air and it's not necessarily consistent like you had the awesome week one two times touchdowns he had a great week four six catches and like 60 something yards is that a sell high and i'm not saying that he's gonna like totally fall out like we have to preface every sell high with this because everybody thinks oh you hate him but his rushing efficiency still isn't very good i'm not sure you had to qualify alvin camara like that seriously like if you've got genti you consider selling high on genti the same way you might consider selling high on derrick henry um i'm trying to look at their schedule i what do you want to know i think which teams are on it patriots bills ran i think i think after this week i don't mind the schedule that much although he's already played the dolphins and saints yeah um yeah i think he's probably gonna be he's rb10 now i think he's probably gonna be rb15 rest of season yeah the first first game with brock bowers gently only had three targets and i was like oh this is a problem here and then he had eight so i don't know i think like i think he's just like a second round kind of player he's just gonna get a ton of work but he said it on sunday night show they wanted to get mike washington more involved they did early and he just he didn't do anything and genti was a lot better than washington in week four all right so those are some by lows and sell highs let's uh do some more fill in the blank here this is from ghost kerrigan i should be blank about deandre swift happy willing to start that doesn't make sense with lukewarm yeah i'm a little worried about deandre swift because of the fumble and because menangai was amazing last game so swift had a he didn't get hurt i'd be with you he just he's day-to-day though we're all day-to-day um i look he he's not a hundred percent so that's that's a positive if you're the deandre swift manager i guess so but i think i don't think they're running away from swift because he had a fumble no but maybe they give more work to menangai because the thing was swift is that he had more he had not had a game all year or last year uh either all year or all year after menangai became a thing with back-to-back back-to-back games of 16 or more carries and he had that in each of the first three games so they were using him much differently and now i'm just worried it'll be more of an even split uh this is from free i'm a blank for dropping drake may last week you're a knucklebeak fine whoo reasonable human being yeah uh i'm feeling regretful for dropping dropping drake may last week i thought you were gonna say idiot moron adam well if he had said i'm an blank i would have said that but i didn't want to be grammatically incorrect from hipster doofus jaylen hurts more like jaylen blank jaylen hurts uh jaylen sucks i don't know more like jaylen hurts your fantasy team yes there you go wait i'm gonna hit a button see if it's the right one yes hurts or drake may rest of season may right you guys took one you guys are all right back in on drake may no we had him qb2 or three at the start of the year i've got him qb10 for this week it's just i i don't know i feel like this jaylen the situation jaylen hurts is in currently is about as bad as any situation of it for any quarterback and eventually aj brown's coming back to the defensive line has already like battled through their first injury and they seem to be okay i i agree that drake may wasn't perfect in week four but i felt like he started to like turn the corner and gain his confidence back and he ran he ran i think that's part of it i think just just getting out there and running around helped him play a little bit more free he ran so far away bruin says blank chargers can be dropped michael two two and two chargers uh which ones herbert and quentin johnson are you are you even speculating on trey harris i've got him on a couple of benches me too i'd rather have him than quentin johnston yep if mcconkey doesn't play this week against the broncos who will be without sirtan and maybe without riley moss as well should we drop should we drop johnson or hold on i would drop johnson they also have a buy in week seven week seven so what's that is it seven or eight well that's a lot chargers are seven yeah all right next one from frank parker washington when you're going to feel comfortable starting quentin johnson if you're not going to do it against a team that's got backups at corner then when would it ever be right they also have backups on the offensive line and it's going to be a tough game for her once again actually i skipped this one the best bears wide receiver or tight end rest of season will be blank and i mean that in terms of fantasy value you know like per position luther luther burton i agree burden khalif raymond nah you're lying um i don't adam hasn't realized something yet what happened did you look at our uh waivers results no you dropped them we dropped khalif raymond for who carnell tate oh i love it that's great well didn't i put in a claim for carnell tate yeah but you had like seven different players you wanted to add dropping brian thomas jr oh okay and i thought we might want more than one of those guys fair enough so i upped the bid on tate and changed thomas to raymond exciting stuff going on with carnell tate we'll talk about it soon um and last one parker washington is wide receiver blank rest of season for wide wide receiver 15. those are excellent guesses and i think that sounds about right okay so washington bad game last week watched the tape this morning he was actually when he was outside not in the slot he was pretty much shadowed by dj turner so good job dj turner for shutting down another wide receiver and only 23 pass attempts for trevor lawrence there's one stat though on parker washington as you think of him as a slot guy he's a different kind of slot guy he is fifth among there are 51 wide receivers and he's a slot guy he's a slot guy he's a slot guy with 20 or more targets he's fifth in average route depth this is not a list that i like very much i don't like my wide receivers to be at the top of this list the top 10 right now in average route depth jameson williams romo dunzey mac hollins courtland sutton parker washington garrett wilson wilson kind of skewed more by one game whereas washington's been more consistently high average route depth jordan addison george pickens don tavian wicks denzel boston um it's not like the worst thing in the world but it's not my favorite thing so it's a little surprising to see parker washington on that list and it is a little bit concerning that trevor lawrence is averaging 26 pass attempts per game yeah yeah like that's that's not exactly an ideal environment unless you were getting a 30 percent target share he probably was getting fairly close to that right before week four maybe not yeah well let's see he had six that sounds about right i don't know 6 12 and 5 targets in three games first three games all right uh fun fun thing for you to watch tonight as the yankees get eliminated is nfl play action on paramount plus it's uh it's a fun show where football meets culture you can see the promo here they just do some crazy stuff and just bring you a different side of football it's really cool good interviews and i'm on it it's it wears wednesday nights and it's on paramount plus and it's cool it's quick it's like 30 35 minutes and we do some fun fantasy shenanigans so check it out let me know what you think tampa bay is at dallas he smashed the mic all right tampa bay at dallas so the bucks you know we're hopeful for george pickens but it's worth noting they're giving up the fourth fewest fantasy points to wide receivers they see the third fewest wide receiver targets per game the bucks and they see the eighth most tight end targets per game they've been bad against tight ends but good against jamar chase jamar chase had 12 yards t higgins had 59 yards denzel boston had a big game jordan addison had a big game matthew golden had 21 yards christian watson had 47 yards golden did catch a touchdown so i don't really know what to make of it but heath is this game even worth discussing this is the easiest game to preview in the world yeah i mean i think if people are considering like do i want to start george pickens i don't think we should just scoff at that i understand why you're feeling that way we're going to start him we're going to start lamb we're going to start deck we're going to start giovante bucky is the only tampa bay player that we're going to start and i feel a little bit gross about it just because the targets disappeared with jaylen daniels um but you're going to start him there's not enough running backs to not start him we could start on bucky irving because not only did the targets disappear but sean tucker appeared and stole the stinking goal line touchdown that was their first rush team rush attempt inside the five-yard line which tells you so many things about this offense right now they've had one rush attempt for the season inside the five-yard line i don't feel super which is one more than bucky has in the last 18 months would you start omari on hampton or bucky irving perfect i have bucky higher but i feel kind of gross about it uh would you i would start bucky i i'm not sure who you put ahead of bucky actually maybe you can make the case for hampton because he's going up against denver and because it's it's i mean they both have fairly easy matchups and they're both splitting three yeah that's true well dallas's run defense isn't that bad nah the only thing they've been really good at is limiting explosive plays um all right well denver gives up plenty of those four yards per carry they were bad week one against the Giants but since then they've been pretty solid they held Derek Henry to 26 carries 89 yards and he did have two touchdowns the Houston running backs were terrible last week how about how about Emmanuel Wilson or Bucky Irving Wilson I've got Bucky I've got Wilson Quinch on the high guy I'm Bucky I gotta move Bucky down Judkins at the Jets I have Judkins over Bucky alright Braylon Allen against the Browns or Bucky we found the guy I'd rather have Bucky I'd still go Bucky I'm going Braylon Allen I think he has every running back touch for the Jets since Brees Hall got hurt and the only reason he wasn't good last week for fantasy purposes is because the team ran 33 offensive plays they might run double that this week alright how about how about the ever difficult to start it's funny you say that though because they're playing a better defense this week they are but no one runs 33 plays Jamison Williams at Arizona or Bucky Irving Jamo Bucky Jamo or George Pickens Pickens Neighbors or Pickens Neighbors Pickens Packers wide receiver or Pickens Watson Pickens Golden that's the Watson Golden Pickens Pickens is 18th for Jamie 11th for Dave 13th for Heath I might have Golden ahead of Pickens you have yep Golden 17th Pickens 18th alright so that's Jake Ferguson start or sit Dave wouldn't want to start him wouldn't want to be a okay I know you wouldn't want to start him but the Bucks really kind of stink against tight ends I don't know if that matters to you he's a touchdown or bust tight end well outside the top well not well outside the top 12 like I'd rather start Higby for now I've got Hawkinson ahead of him for now I've got Kosicki ahead of him Harold Fannin is an easy start ahead of him just anybody that could get in the neighborhood of four catches with a semblance of touchdown upside should go ahead of Ferguson what a crap week at quarterback but you know Dak it's not like the matchup is bad or anything like that but are you just concerned at all about him not having to throw much and and you know everybody's got him top five Jamie of them second so I guess there's not a ton of concern you don't have him second no you do where do you have him oh wait I just I hit refresh now you have him fourth Heath Heath fourth Dave fifth Jamie fourth so the guys they would start over Dak are Josh Allen Matthew Stafford Jared Goff and like Dave has Burrow and that's it okay well does anybody want to talk about Dak or just I think if you've got him you're starting him he's one of the safest plays this week yeah just hope the Bucs can keep up their end of the bargain is there anyone else on the Bucs like Kate Otten's getting six targets most weeks five to six there's not a pass catcher you could start with confidence from Tampa Barrett there you go no who's the best one I mean look if you want to go based on the one game sample size it's Godwin you got you nine PPR points 9.1 Abuka still has the most upside but he's been so disappointing right now so they're at best number three receivers I have a book of the highest but same no neither of them are in my top 40 wide receivers do we have some questions all right Dak or Trevor Lawrence I have Dak higher deck Bucky Pollard Emanuel Wilson or Will Shipley Wilson yeah Wilson or wait hold on sorry Heath Emanuel thank you Cowboys or Bengals DST Cowboys for me I have the Bengals Javante Williams is a must start right yes oh yes good very good run defense though the Bucs have a good run defense so Houston yeah I know but he ran he didn't run well last week that's not what he's gonna do I understand he scored touchdown yes of course he has a must start I just want to point it out it's not like this is an easy matchup Chris Godwin Concepcion or Roman Wilson pick pick two Wilson is first of that threesome for me he is Wilson too I think if you're in this situation what I would probably do is wait if you if you can see the injury situations in Buffalo and Cincinnati and if you could pick up one of Coleman Shakir or Dante Myers and play that player as your second receiver wait you said Shakir Dante Meyer who's the first guy you said Keon Coleman oh Coleman I do have Concepcion ahead of Godwin but again not much confidence the stat lines will be similar six for 30 I think I don't know Concepcion might get more targets Cowboys well they did give two two screen passes to Godwin last week so that was cool he had a like they did for Bucca too that's how we got his 27% target share I think for Godwin something like that Yahoo anyway the Cowboys DST 25% roster they have been absolutely horrible this year at the Giants Washington Baltimore at Houston they do not have an interception I think they will get there first but Jamie you're super high on them you have them well you're going to tell me that I'm wrong but as of now you have them fourth I think Dave 10th Heath 14th for the Cowboys Jamie I mean the Bucs offense is atrocious it was atrocious before Baker Mayfield got hurt and I just don't trust Jalen Daniels I think it's going to be an opportunity for the Dallas defense to get right Heath you're the low guy 14 well I'm not sure that they possess the ability to get right and 14's much much higher than what their production would suggest I think like what Tampa Bay is going to try to do and they did it last week is run the ball a lot more than they throw it so if they can if they can do that there won't be quite as many opportunities for Jalen Daniels to make mistakes okay and then they'll be down by three touchdowns and that's go get him which they have barely done this year there should be there should be some turnovers here we'll take a break and the Bucs by the way give up the most fantasy points to DST we'll take a break and when we come back we'll take one last look at the most traded list we'll do some buy sell hold I got some wide receiver stats that might interest you and then it's fantasy Jeopardy time and if we have time we'll get to

Alright the most traded list Omari and Hampton we talked about Saquon Barkley's injured Malik Neighbors buy sell hold buy hold Chuba Hubbard buy sell hold hold definitely hold I'm buying high you're buying high I just think he's going to be really good you know it's hard not to buy their offense right I don't get Chuba Hubbard I mean look at this guy's stat sheet it's like 4.6 yards per carry 3.5 yards per carry next year his longest run we had one run longer than 12 yards last year and now he's looking great he was hurt last year Emeka Abuka buy sell hold buy sell hold I mean, you can get them cheap, so buy if it's really cheap. Agreed. I'd be closer to a sell than a buy, but probably a hold. I guess we think George Pickens is a buy. Basil Tootin, buy, sell, hold. He's a buy before Thursday. You don't want to talk about a get-right spot. It's this game for Pickens. Yeah, again, I'm worried about the game script. I think Dallas can kind of do what they want against the secondary. I'm not worried in the sense that. Like, if you said a get-right game would be a shootout against Detroit, that's all I'm saying. I'm starting Pickens, and I'm high on Pickens. I don't think there's much to worry about, but Tampa Bay with a backup quarterback, I don't know if that's. I'd start getting concerned if he gets opportunities against Tampa and just has another whole game. That's when I might start getting concerned. I'd get pretty concerned if CeeDee Lamb has a 50% target share and he's in the teens again. I was coaching third base last night, and I was holding into Tootin for a while. I'd buy that. Hold your Tootin. You would buy that? I'd buy the story. I'd buy that J.B. was doing that. Yeah. Why wouldn't you just let it go? You're outside. I was quiet, and I knew it was going to be a loud one. I would have been selling that so fast. Now feels like a good time for me to tell you all to vote for us for some type of award. There currently isn't one. And then, you know, like DJ Moore is on the most traded list. When DJ Moore is on the field, he is heavily targeted, and he's hurt right now. Bye. Yeah. That's a good bye, though. And then, yeah, just really look at the Tetero, McMillan, Bryce Young, Jalen Coker, Chuba Hubbard managers. Look at the. Maybe you want to. Maybe Rasheed Rice. I don't know. That one seems like because they could sign Tyreek, and he's got the injury. But take advantage of the desperate managers. And the A.J. Brown manager. If the A.J. Brown manager is struggling, you know, this is a good time to make some trade offers for A.J. Brown. That manager needs to win now. Okay. Some wide receiver stats. Just a few. Carnell Tate is fourth among wide receivers in target share behind JSN, CD Lam, and number three. Do you guys remember from yesterday? Carnell Tate, CD Lam, who. So JSN's won in target share. CD Lam is two. Four is Carnell Tate. Number three is. Isn't it Zay? Michael Wilson. Zay Wilson. Is it Zay Flowers? How many targets does Zay Flowers have? Zay missed a game, and team target share is showing for the season. Right, right. So that's why. You're convoluted. Yeah, so Carnell Tate, I think some encouraging things happening here, and two good games in a row. Two encouraging games in a row for him. This stat here. Among 51 wide receivers with 20 or more targets, Mike Evans is fifth in target per outrun rate. He's behind Zay Flowers, JSN, CD Lam, and Puka Nakua. Target per outrun rate is a great stat to predict wide receiver success. Yeah, go ahead. Better than your team target share stat. I didn't think it was possible for everybody to be right about Mike Evans, but so far, it's like when he's on the field, he's completely awesome, and there's a different injury every other week. That he's not on the field. So, I mean, he's always playing. It's just how much, how long? He doesn't, I don't know what a full route participation rate for Evans is, but so far, he has not eclipsed 76%. And I noticed the same thing with Luther Burden. Luther Burden last week was kind of low for Burden in route participation rate. It was like 68%, but usually Burden's around 73, 74%. So I went back and I looked at all of the wide receivers last year who averaged 14 or more PPR fantasy points per game. And what their route participation rate is, what their route participation rates were. And not for the full season, but only the games in which they actually played. And most of, almost all of, I think Puka Nakua was the only one who averaged 14 or more PPR fantasy points per game and did not have a route participation rate above 80%. You did have some guys in like the low 80s, but mostly it was 80%. And Puka had a few games where he like was kind of limited and, you know, he was often above 85%. So when I look at Luther Burden, I see Mike Evans right now, I love what they're doing. They're not running enough routes, I think, to be great. They could be good. They could be must start in like a two, in wide receiver two, you know, a sense. But I don't know, unless they score a bunch of touchdowns, which Evans could, Burden probably won't. I don't know that they're running enough routes. I think that needs to be pointed out. And then the last thing is Stefan Diggs is sixth in target per outrun rate. It's kind of looking a lot like last year for Diggs. Another guy who's not running enough routes, but when he's on the field, he gets targeted. Well, think about two of the guys you mentioned, though, their quarterbacks have been hurt. Who did I mention? You mentioned Luther Burden and you mentioned Stefan Diggs. Yeah, I don't know if that would change their route participation rates, though. Well, it changed their production. Yeah. You know, these are things that I'm not sure if it would change burdens for the better or for the worse. Well, I think you get coaches get conservative when they have backup quarterbacks, you know, and so the Keenum game plan was a little bit more aggressive, I think, than people expected. And it worked out. Well, for Burden, right? If I'm not mistaken. Yes. Yeah, push for the end zone, four yards. The Washington game plan went kaput last week when it could have been great against Indianapolis. You guys ready for some Jeopardy? Yeah, that's the Jeopardy theme song. Jeopardy is the game of the week. Might be. Forget it. I lost the theme music. All right, Fantasy Jeopardy. We have three categories. All of them are for $200, $400, and $600. I did not do a final Jeopardy question, so I'm going to ask Sam and Tom. All right, Sam and Tom. Sam and Tom. Sam and Thomas to come up with a final Jeopardy question if they have time. If not, no big deal. Our categories today are quarterbacks. People call Thomas Tom. I've never called him that in my life. Tom. Hey, Tom. Quarterbacks. I just turned into a 50-year-old man. Welcome to the club. All right, quarterbacks, flexes, so that's running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends. And famous Sams in honor of Sam, our other producer. Why not famous Toms? That's next week. Quarterbacks, flexes, and famous Sams. Heath, I assume you won the last game, so your board is yours. Let's do famous Sams for $200, please. The second pick. In the 1984 NBA draft, he wasn't as good as the player. Heath. Jamie. Are you kidding? I said Dave before. I was you, I'm sorry. I heard Jamie say Dave. I thought I heard Jamie. Tom. Dave. It's Sam Bowie. What's that? Who is Sam Bowie? Who is Sam Bowie? All right, I'll give it to you, but from now on, if I don't hear a who is, you get it wrong. All right, Dave gets the first one, Sam Bowie. What board is yours? Flexes for $200, Tom. He leads the Minnesota Vikings. Who leads the Minnesota Vikings in receiving? Jamie. Jamie. Who is TJ Hawkinson? Correct. Very good. Board is yours. Flexes for $400. This wide receiver is second in the NFL in receiving yards, and he has the most 20-plus yard plays in the NFL. Jamie. Yeah. Who is CeeDee Lamb? Wrong buzzer sound. Second in the NFL in receiving yards, and has the boost. Heath. Heath. Who is Zay Flowers? Wrong buzzer sound. I get a shot, right? Yep. Who is Chris Olave? Oh, Dave. Oh. 600 points. Jamie has 200. Dave, the board is yours. What's left in the famous Sam's? 400 and 600. Famous Sam's for 600. 600. Ooh, okay. Ooh. I wish there was 600. This loyal best friend is never afraid to go on the field. This loyal best friend is never afraid to go on a dangerous journey. Who is Samwise? Samwise Gamgee, or whatever his name is. Lord of the Rings. Frodo's friend. Sam, that's a Samwise. It's a Sam. This is a famous Samwise. You guys are lacking in your Sam knowledge. It's not a good look. Has anybody ever noticed how Sam sounds like? Sam sounds like Dan. Oh, is that a Jersey thing? Might be. Maybe. Could be. The board is still yours, Dave. I'm hoping that you've got a certain left fielder as the answer to this question. Famous Sam's for 400, please. His song, Stay With Me, bears a startling resemblance to Tom Petty's I Won't Back Down. Oh. How do I? Isn't this your guy? No. No? Not Sam. I don't know. Although he did do a cover. I don't know the cover of Sam Fender's song, 17 Going Under. And his name is? Who is Sam Smith? Stay with me. Great Chicago Bulls reporter in that. No, I won't back down. All right. We got Flexies. Found a way to work in Adam Sings. That's nice. No Sam Antinacci in there is a crime. There was actually like a settlement in that whole thing. That was. No one cares. Flexies for 400, please. We already did that one. Flexies for 600. Flexies for 600. Flexies for 600. These two AFC West wide receivers lead the NFL. with six end zone targets. AFC West. These two AFC West. Oh, no, wait, wait, wait. Did I say AFC? You said AFC. These two NFC West wide receivers. Oh, my gosh. What a terrible job. Oh, my God. NFC West wide receivers, six end zone targets. Lead the NFL. Heath. Yeah. I'm going to get this so wrong. Who are JSN and Devante Adams? Good guess. Logical guess. I'm going to get shut out today. Jamie, who are JSN and Mike Evans? Who are JSN. And Michael Wilson. Oh, Dave is just crushing it today. Dave with 1,200. Heath, you need to sweep. Heath or Jamie needs to sweep quarterbacks here to get Jamie for the win. Heath for the tie. All right. I'm just going to go 200, 400, 600 quarterbacks for 200. He leads the league in passer rating. Heath. Jamie. Heath. Who is Brock Birdie? Correct. Quarterbacks for 400. He is second in the league in passer rating. Heath. Heath. Who is Bryce Young? Oh, the game is officially over now. Dave was going to win. That's incorrect. Second in the league in passer rating. Dave. Who is Trevor Lawrence? Trevor Lawrence. Oh, wait. The game is not over. If Jamie gets these next two, he ties Dave. Who is Tyler Shuck? Game is over. Who is Lamar Jackson? Second in the NFL in passer rating. Yes. And quarterbacks for 600. This is the amount of running backs who have as many or more rushing touchdowns as Josh Allen. Heath. Heath. What is two? Dave. Dave. What is one? Dave crushing it. Another. It was Kenneth Walker, right? No, it's Derrick Henry. That's what I said. Derrick Henry. They both have seven rushing touchdowns. I've got one for you, Adam. Oh, okay. This producer who's been taking care of fantasy football today for multiple years has a first name that you've known. Who is Tom? Tom. I'm going to just go. I have one for Heath. Heath. How many different problems does Adam have with his eye? What is three? Oh, I nailed it. Very good. I think that should give Heath the win. I'm giving my win to Heath so he can keep his streak alive. It is really, really painful. It absolutely stinks. I hate this. All right. I'm going to read a few questions. I'm going to read a few questions from my inbox here. Grade the trade from Joel. Neighbors. He's three and one. Looking forward to the future. Neighbors and Bucky Irving for A.J. Brown and Basil Tootin. No. Feels about even to me. C minus. All right. Here's a David Montgomery trade. I traded David Montgomery and R.J. Oh, no. For R.J. Harvey. It's about even. B. B minus. All right. So it's full PBR. Yeah. They didn't. He didn't say. Michael says, I have Pickens, Burden, Terry, Nico, and Parker Washington. Should I trade any of them? Pickens, Burden, Terry, McLaurin, Nico, and Parker Washington. No. Should I trade any of them for like a wide receiver or running back upgrade? I mean, the only like sell high candidate would be Parker Washington. If you want somebody that's looking to acquire. George Pickens, you can, but it's a pretty good group. You're definitely going to hang on to Nico. And I think you could ask for quite a bit. If you're going to pair Pickens with Parker Washington, you can get almost any running back you want, except maybe the big three. A lot of people have been asking if anyone farted on my pillow. I have a suspect. When was the last time Nando was at your house? No, it's been a long time. Start one from Chesky. Don't tell anybody. Start Ramondre Stevenson, Kyle Menongai, or David Montgomery. PPR. Ramondre Menongai or who? Montgomery. I think it's Ramondre. Hopefully he practices. I think it's Montgomery, but gross. Last trade question from Mike. No, I have Ramondre too. Sorry. It's all good. What's the question here, Mike? So he has Ali Gordon. Oh, trade Ali Gordon for Carnell Tate. A plus. Love it. A plus. Yeah. All right. There you go. We just found a good sell high, didn't we? Ali Gordon? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's like belly button lint for now. That's too disrespectful. I won't say that. But sure. He's absolutely a sell high after the game he had. You guys want the final Jeopardy question that Thomas came up with? Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. All right. All right. In this. Hold on. Do you know the answer? I see it in my email. Okay. All right. Fine. Fine. Fine. In this 1999 football movie. Well, no. See, Thomas. All right. In a 1999 football movie, this fictional team plays its home games at the fictional pro player stadium and features quarterback Willie Beeman. Oh, Jamie. Dave. Jamie. What is the longest yard? Not. Oh, Dave. Dave. What is any given Sunday? Any given Sunday. Incorrect. I'm going to read the question again because Thomas actually wrote it very poorly with two questions and I changed it. All right. I should be in a 1999 football movie. This fictional team plays its home games. Oh, Jamie. Jamie. Yeah. Yeah. But he doesn't know it. Come on. Are you kidding? He knew it. No, he doesn't. The Miami Sharks. Yes. Way to go, Tom. Oh, no. One question. Um, what's the old quarterback, the actor, Dennis Quaid? Yeah. Uh, what was the character's name? Oh, I don't remember. I don't remember either. Tom. The house he used in the movie? Yeah. Who's? Dan Marino. Really? Yeah. That was Marino's actual house. Oh, that's cool. That's cool. Yeah. Um, people talk about Al Pacino as being this great coach, but he clearly put Dennis Quaid's life in jeopardy. He was horrible to him, right? Like he had a concussion and he, he like convinced them to play, right? Well, that's a good question. Well, that was, that was James Woods. He was the, the team doctor. Oh, okay. Okay. He was doing all the shady stuff. And it was a little bit more common back in 1999. I guess. It can still happen a little bit today. Pacino was the, he was a shady coach too. He dipped out on the Sharks and went to Albuquerque. Well, that was, I mean, you know, you, you, you keep hearing all of the Lions should have kept Ben Johnson and, uh, what are the other ones? Um, the Bucks should have kept Liam Cohen. Uh, the Miami Sharks actually did that. They kept their young offensive coordinator. I don't know if that was my choice. I just know they had Lawrence Taylor. And I was going to say about the concussion stuff. Hindsight is 2020, but not a lot of things are 2020. Who was, who was one of the receivers in the team? LLT.
