Just gotta have the distance!" Now, here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie, and Heath. Our week 10 wave of wire is pretty darn good. We've got two running backs who might be starters this week and must add players that are rostered in 5% of CBS Sports leagues, and then there's BAM Knight who's 39% roster, but that would be Audra Guestame and Cory Keiner. I mean, they are barely rostered. We've got a wide receiver who was the number 12 wide receiver per game in his rookie season. In 2023, he took the league by storm. He's 22% rostered. Of course, it's Tank Dell. We've got a lot of names for you to look at on the waiver wire here on Fantasy Football Today, presented by him's, whatever's holding you back, him's has a real plan for it. Be confident, be him. We've got Dave. We've got Jamie. We've got Fab. Well, I don't have that much Fab. And we've got it just real quick. We got an AMA. Ask me anything at 11 a.m. Eastern. So if you hear this early or if you're watching live, we're on the Bleacher Report app today at 11 a.m. to answer your questions. Good morning, Dave. Yo. Good morning, Jamie. Good morning. Let's dive into it. Diving scares me. I could never. Oh my gosh. Of a diving board. That scares me. Real? That scares you first. Oh, yeah. Cause you know the impact. Oh, that would hurt. All right. I'd hate to see you around spiders. Oh, no. You know, we have so many spiders here that I've kind of gotten used to them. Jamie, top three. What time of day is it? It's right now at almost 9 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, the 10th. It is Audrey. I guess the maze number one. Corey Kiner's number two. 10,000, number three by four o'clock. That could be completely different. Estime. Okay. 15 carries 72 yards in a touchdown and one catch against Cleveland. He gets Carolina this week. They have been better against the run lately, but still giving up fantasy points. And they are 31st against running backs. Corey Kiner, eight carries 55 yards in a touchdown. He's been good. He's been very efficient this year. He gets Detroit this week, a much tougher matchup than what Audrey Estime has. We also have white land, Larison is the only other Patriots running back that that I know of right now. So right now, you know, they've got right. I mean, they have Terrell Jennings on their practice squad, but yeah, they could always add another. And I think that's kind of what Jamie's getting at is that we're sitting here with you guys Tuesday morning. This is going to be a busy trade deadline. We think. And therefore, a lot of the things that we say on this show may not be applicable to when you do your waiver run tonight. So don't be like Adam, don't do your waiver run at 10 a.m. or whatever he does. You've got to wait till later in the day, put on some berry white, turn off the lights, put some candles up and light them and get yourself in on that waiver hub action because it's going to be a busy and interesting evening for all of us once these trades are through. Okay. If you read the column, you're going to see I explain in there like, there's going to probably be like 75 versions of it before the end of the day. Okay. I don't think you're exaggerating either. I was, I have such a funny joke, but I can't make it. It's just, it's just not appropriate, but thank you for bringing waiver hub back. Okay. Oh, there was ever a night and not just the guys that are currently there for the, for the Patriots, you also have maybe driving on Henderson could be healthy at any moment. No. I was going to ask that. So Ramondra is not going to play this week. He's going to miss a few weeks. And the thing with the Patriots is that they have a buy next week. So they have Detroit this week and then a buy next week. And the way that the report is phrased is telling because it's weeks not games. Exactly. It is possible. Ramondra only misses one game here. And that's a or two. Yeah. Yeah. Or three. I mean, who knows? And it's like, what do you think the odds of Traveon? We probably don't know this. Traveon Henderson and Travis H.Anne playing this week. It's a wild card. I think the fact that H.Anne hasn't practiced yet is, you know, this is kind of the way that I looked at it. There's probably more of a long term appeal to Corey Kiner because of Ramondra's injury and Traveon's absence with the illness. There is more of a, for me, at least, priority of who can I start this week and I prefer estimate to kinder this week because of his matchup. And then there's the, you know, layers to it of when does Travis H.Anne return, what happens when Travis H.Anne returns clearly estimate. He had the best running performance of any Saints back the season. You know, so his 72 yards was the best performance of any of their guys this year. So I think just looking at it as, okay, who can I plug and play right now? And in the immediate future, that is Audra Guestamay. We may get Corey Kiner for a month of being the best running back for the Patriots. I don't know, but at least for week 10, give me Audra Guestamay. Big part of Ramondra's value will move on for a minute here, but these are the big guys, right? Kiner, Estimate and Tankdel. And Dave, you have the same top three, just different order. I've got a Tankdel at the top. I'm a little nervous. Oh, that was a, that was a, that was a, they go on right there and they took a dump. Yeah, Tankdel is at the top for me because he had nine targets in a blowout win. Seven of those targets were deep shots. I don't think he's going to get nine targets every week, but I do think he'll get in that six target range with at least half of them being downfield. The Texans, again, we don't know what they're going to do at the trade deadline, but if they do nothing at the trade deadline, that means their identity is clearly CJ Stroud letting it rip. And this. I think they did their moves. They made their move. Oh, what is their move? Well, they made their move a few weeks ago with Marvin Harrison, which doesn't make sense, but they don't. Yeah, that was great. Good job. They, a second round pick. They took a second round pick and they put it on that random ghost noise that's on our show and it shot up into the stratosphere and it's gone forever. So good job. By Houston on that. That was my number one. If we knew that if that HN wasn't going to play this week, SMA would be number one. We don't know that for sure. I think it really comes down to how you feel about the other running backs we'll talk on the show because if you get SMA first and then HN comes back and it's a split between the two E's on the saints, you're not going to feel really good about SMA. So he's second for now, Kiner's third, but that's your top three. Okay. And, you know, a big part of Ramondra's value is the receiving. Kiner hasn't done that. Do you think he gets the typical recaptures? No. Okay. I think he gets recaptures. Yes. Do I think that he will guarantee? No. But he could. I think the landlord's since they're passing down his back. Okay. So, right. So that's the thing with these guys, right? You could be, you could have a, hey, he got 14 carries, but he got one cat. You know, you could have an Oli Gordon type day, right? Where you get nothing in the passing game and you're getting 50/60 yards, a Derek Henry type game. If he doesn't score, it could be bad. But listen, Deandre Swift was terrible, Oli Gordon was bad, right? You have to take these chances just because they could be bad, doesn't mean you don't pick them up. We all know that. All right. And we'll get into that a little bit more later. A lot of players will give you the shallow lead guys, of course. We'll recap last night's game. Do we have to? Yeah. And how much fab are we spending on these guys? How bad? Not much. I think the, the, the thing that you're looking at is what you need, you know, so your record will probably, I mean, we said this now for maybe the last month is your record will probably dictate what you have to spend, because if you're trying to buy yourself a win and you believe in Audric Estimated, believe in Corey Kiner, you believe in Tank Dell or there's, for me, there's just a, the third spot's wide open. So, you know, Dell is the best receiver, but not by much. Need a tight end, need a quarterback this week, you know, so you're, you're going to spend what you got to spend? Also, I wanted to throw out one more name, it was very frustrating for fantasy managers last week to have to drop Lamar Jackson instead of put him on IR because they didn't put him on IR until you had to make your waiver claims. So I know I had to drop him in a couple of leagues and he's down to 78% rostered. It's a free ad. I'm not saying it should be your first priority. He's not going to be in the projections, obviously, but now Lamar Jackson is on IR. He might come back, might come back later in the season. Oh, I don't think he's coming back for until after the fantasy playoffs run. All right. It's, it's in the realm of possibility. I don't think that's, that's not a certainty. So he may not, but it's an IR spot. So I just wanted to say, if you have an IR spot, Lamar Jackson is someone that, that you could stash. We have the AMA. I would really, we really appreciate if you joined us for that. Okay. It's on 11 a.m. Eastern on the Bleacher Report app. Turn on your fantasy notifications on the Bleacher Report app. Join us there. We had some good questions last week. And if you want your question answered, it doesn't have to be about the waiver wire. It can be. It can be about trades. It can be about starter sit. It can be about what we're having for dinner tonight, whatever you want, AMA. Join us there at 11 o'clock Eastern today. I know a lot of you are going to hear this after the fact But if you if you have time, please help us out make the show and again This is a great way to get your question answered So you have a good chance of having a good answer Okay, news and notes so far the trades have been on defense from from yesterday with the Lions acquiring safety Andre sisco from the jets for a 2028 6th round pick But it was the Jaguars who were super busy. They had two defensive tackles including Jordan Davis from the Eagles They gave up a first round pick and a second round pick for and safety Jesse Bates from the Falcons They gave up a second round pick and a fifth round pick And they also got defensive tackle to von Godschau from the Saints for a six-round pick Something to think about if you have Tony Pollard and he's coming off these two great games and now he's facing an even better Run defense in the Jaguars. Two of his next three games are against the Jaguars Quarterback news. All right, so I can't sit here and say that Jason McCarthy is definitely going to play He is probably seems like he's on the right track, but he's got this hip issue. They play Thursday Right now we expect McCarthy to play. I think we expect Mahomes to play unbelievably that the Cardinals laws gardener lay lost Michael Wilson for the season with the neck injury and it seems like they're gonna lose gardener Minchoo for the season with an elbow injury Carson Beck is set to start for the Cardinals his first game will be against the Los Angeles Rams at home and then at the chiefs And then Josh Johnson was signed off the Bengals practice squad. So that's where we're at with the Cardinals right now Real quick Jamie. What do you think about Tremac Bride rest of season? You're still starting Tremac Bride You just have to, you know, sit severely lower expectations for him. I mean, you know, he still has the potential to be a top five tight end I don't think he, you know, you've been saying this for a while now. You're worried about Brock Bauer's with Fernando Mendoza Like I'm terrified what this could look like from McBride But he's still going to get peppered with targets because of what this receiving core look like when you look at this game This has got to be the the worst combination of wide receivers between the Rams and the Cardinals that I've ever seen Because you've taken them way because of injury Pukinacua and Michael Wilson no Devonte Adams They don't have Marvin Harris and then you more like this is this is absolutely awful So you you're begging for Tremac Bride in this matchup So I'm still starting and I think I ranked him third. I might drop him to fourth It's clearly not an easy match up to begin with but again, McBride has overcome a lot so far in his career I'm hoping that'll do so once again And I think you know the downgrade in theory to Beck maybe I don't know if it benefits him, but not having Michael Wilson It probably doesn't benefit him. I mean he gets so many targets to begin with But would you rather have obviously bowers, but who else Kettle likely Kettle? Yeah Rest of season rest of season. I mean over Kettle. Kettle. That's it. Especially if it's half PPR on non PPR I mean we haven't really seen likely and do well with McCarthy, you know So it's funny just James comes in and then I'll sound like this So it's hard to say that that's an easy one and really after those two guys Kettle and likely I think it's just a toss-up so I'd rather just stick with McBride. I'm a league Willis is playing through a groin. Maybe love one Oh, yeah, yeah that guy Malik Willis playing through a groin injury So it makes him a little bit tougher to trust because the rushing hasn't been there Jacobi was that expected to start against the chargers on Monday night Justin Herbert got good news His hand extra got traded. Yeah He's fine. So he should be on the phone with them today all day And I there was a report from ESPN that the Browns were going back to Dishon Watson But Todd Monkin did not commit to that so we don't know who's going to start for them this week against Houston and Drew lock to lock his beat up But he's expected to start this week Sam Darnold out at Las Vegas Okay, at running back Ramandre Stevenson's going to miss some time with the knee injury We don't know Travian Henderson status right now. So we're we're in on Corey Keiner And again, it could be a one-game absence for Stevenson. That would be two weeks could be more Josh Jacobs What do you think the timetable is for him Dave because he's another one who has Minnesota and then a buy and then Ram Saints, but yeah Do we know if he's going to go on IR because that makes it a lot easier No, we don't know We had a report. I think on CBS that said maximum three weeks But the floor did not rule out IR for Josh Jacobs right and they've already had their buy if I know No, no, they have a buy in 10 11. They do have a buy in week 11 So they might be able to get away without putting them on IR there just for just four weeks This is this is just awful like trying to figure out who the best packer's running back is yeah I wonder if they're a team that makes a trade because everybody that they have Like their best running backs behind Jacobs are passing down skies It's Pierre strong and it's Chris Brooks and Brooks has been on the shelf Brooks is actually eligible to return. He was out of control of the return last week. So it's I have when you when you see the column and you see it in the notes out on the center I have like stacks of positive players on the same team. So I've all four packers running backs And explaining how that should be picked up or not picked up not pick I have every Rams receiver in tight and that's on their roster listed. It's just crazy like this This is such a crazy we I Adam was like asking me for notes last night and I was up till four in the morning right in the store Oh, yeah, no, it's tough and I would I would be you know Someone interested in Caleb Johnson coming off the best rushing performance from that you shouldn't be You should not I would be but what minnesota this week and then a buy and what is march on Lloyd comes back We don't even and then the ramps and then the ramps right so yeah, this the world. It's also he He really didn't get going until garbage time against new England if you go back to week six That what Brooks was not playing that was Pierre strong's best game We didn't know at that point if Jacobs was coming back in week seven it happened. I believe on After waivers ran. Yeah, yeah, yeah have to happen after waivers ran because the last update we actually had on our side on pier strong was waiver wire priority for week seven um and so I would the way that I'm looking at it now is like I would let somebody else chase Caleb Johnson I'm gonna go try and get pier strong cheap if Christopher books comes back I'll see how that plays out at the end of the week but strong has been very good for them as pass catcher Uh, when Jake was good as a pass catcher right before Jacobs comeback And truthfully, I think we all hope that we don't have to put in claims for these guys Right, I mean, we hope that we have running backs good enough where we're not we're not putting in a claim for Pierre strong It's tough dude. You got you got four prominent teams on a buy so no bucking no swift no Barclay for what that's worth No, Jonah Coleman like it stuff and then you lose Jacobs in reminder like I don't know about you But I'm struggling with few weeks. Oh, yeah, absolutely Um, who isn't man cam scatiboo will be back this week apparently full-go for Thursday's game against Washington And Dallas running back Tyler Goodson was giving them some some decent run there and look like a handcuff at least He's gonna be out multiple weeks wide receiver news AJ Brown He's gonna make the trip to Germany doesn't mean he's gonna play but that's at least encouraging Who gonna kooas likely gonna go on IR please do it today before waivers run with Turfto and a sprained MCL and PCL So actually hope he doesn't go on IR to be on something why Then he comes back center. Oh no, I mean if he's gonna go or do it today They're nervous about putting anybody on IR because they only have so many spots left to bring people back from IR Sean McVeigh talked about he's gonna be gone for a while and the worry is that if they somehow knows dive and they start losing games That we never thought they would have lost because of how bad their offense could be This this is uh, there's a chance. We don't see pukka again this year And I'll tell you what I mean it's possible to want the atoms comes back after they're by so it is possible The Rams they're gonna have no pukka no atoms this week. So this is important if you're picking up Tyler Heybeat this week's at Arizona next week is a buy Adams could be back against green Bay A week what is that 12 Michael Wilson out for the season Brandon I you could be instated the 49ers have a two-week roster exemption also for the Niners Debo Samuel could play this week Mike Evans is not expected to play they're at Dallas. Damn, I love to have gotten Evans back I thought that was gonna be a quick absence Traylon Berks was listed as it did not practice, but there is optimism that Traylon Berks will play on Thursday at the Giants Luther Burton has a concussion. He also has a buy-a-week Xavier Worthy has a hamstring injury Lad McConkey has back spasms Jalen Waddle concussion buy-a-week George Picken status is unclear Also Jonathan Mingle left with an injury and Jake Ferguson is gonna miss time So we could go back to flinoy this week against San Francisco, even though he was disappointing I haven't have you seen an update on Omar Cooper Jr I have not no We on our side he is not on the injury part. Okay. I assume he's good then Like I said Jake Ferguson out multiple weeks and Chico Conqua was listed as limited. He should be fine We're gonna take a break. We're gonna get you your top three players at each position when we come back on fantasy football today Hey, I'm Vladimir G2 and I'm Kelly O'Grady and we're here to tell you about our new show straight up every week We're ditching the anchor desk to break down the story the internet can't stop talking about and we'll have a cocktail recipe to match the mood Straight up is out now wherever you get your podcasts this episode is brought to you by whoop after a few long weekend trips with friends Recently, I noticed how tough it was to bounce back and get into my normal groove on Monday mornings Integrating a whoop 5.0 wearable into my daily routine has made a huge difference in how I recover and reset after those busy trips What I love most is that it doesn't function like a typical smartwatch There are no distracting screens or step goals telling you what to do Instead whoop with powers you to truly listen to your body by turning your physiological data into actionable guidance Around your sleep stress and physical strength whether it's late nights at the ballpark with my kids Getting them up early for school or as we know doing plenty of work for our fantasy football today podcast Woop helps me make everything effortlessly.

And, you know, with quarterback, you have Chicago, Denver, Philadelphia, and Tampa Bay on a buy. So it's not that bad, Caleb Williams, and then three quarterback situations we weren't, oh, actually, Bonyxman, Benari. But anyway, you also can't trust Matthew Stafford at this point. So we need some quarterbacks here. So Jamie, who are the top three options? - Do you know Smith is number one? Guess Buffalo this week. - Oh, hopefully he gets Garrett Wilson back this week. Listen, he played Kansas City, he sucked. I didn't think he was going to play well in that matchup. Pretty if he's two games, he played very well. Now Buffalo's defense is look really good the last two weeks. Think about who they played the last two weeks. So, you know, I'm hopeful that Geno Smith will perform like a low end starter, but there's no guarantees. Very close with him and Rodgers played very well against the Bengals last time, these two team met. I'm going to guess the Steelers probably tried to do the same thing that's worked for them the last couple of weeks, which is run the ball, play defense, not have to slow the ball over the place. We've seen Rodgers go from challenging downfield to a lot more dink and dunk, but we could again, shoot out with Joe Boros. So, that's basically the top two guys. You can interchange them if you want to. I have no problem with that. I have Jacobi Versett third, he's a wild card. You know, we don't know exactly what this is going to look like with him in Declan's Wells offense, going to Baltimore first start against the Chargers team that prior to last week had done a very good job against quarterback. So, Versett would be third after that. It's just kind of just, you know, pick your poison with all these backups and replacement options. But these are the top three for me is a little bit of a distance away from the group. - Hey, you're 100% right about Geno Smith. When he said good matchups, he's been pretty good. So, I just, the fact that he's number one was, I was like, oh, but Bryce Young, 78% rostered on CBS. And about 66% on Yahoo, 71% on Sleeper. It's wanted to throw Bryce Young's name in there. If he is available, would you rather have him or Geno Smith? - Yeah, he'd be the top guy of my foot. - Okay. - And I would still, if Willow Smith makes it through practice, so I would also look at him 271% roster on our site, gets the colts. I know that they've been sort of up and down against quarterbacks. Willow's has been very up and down last week was extremely disappointing, but I still would look at him as well. And in that same mix of guys like Geno Smith and Roger. - Yeah, I, he promised he practiced in full all week. And apparently was really hampered by the growing. So, I don't know what to, yeah. - They may get fined for that. - Yeah, I mean, he was listed on the injury report. It just, he was a full part. - Oh, okay. - And that's what I said on the box where yesterday was like, man, do I feel dumb for not knowing that he had this growing issue? Well, I mean, if a guy's listed as a full participant, we never, - I wouldn't have thought of it yet. - Yeah, we never treat that as like, oh, downgrade him. Dave, top three running backs. And I think we should talk about BAM Knight. We haven't mentioned him yet. - My top three running backs are gonna be Estimae Kainer and Seth McGowan. McGowan already rostered in about 60% of CBS Sports League. So it's probably 10 team leagues where he's still out there. Zonovan Knight would be up there as the next name, but so would Dylan Sampson. Sampson's also highly rostered. So maybe it makes sense to talk about Knight. He was in the concussion protocol. As far as we know, he still is. Yes, he might come out of it. Yes, he might play. Yeah, he might even lead the Cardinals and touches among their running backs. But it's just such a bad situation. I would almost think that any defense that plays Arizona from this point forward is gonna double-tramac ride, play man against all the other receivers and just try and get after Carson Beck and run Blitz the running backs that are there. So I don't feel really good about Zonovan Knight. You weigh him against somebody like Sampson who's right around 10 PPR points per week. And I can't say that I like Knight better than somebody like that. You can make the case that Pierre Strong is a better option to pick up than Zonovan Knight. 'Cause at least what we know Strong will be a part-time running back in Green Bay, at least we think that he will. And tough matchups ahead, but he might be just as good as those guys right around 10 PPR points. So you gotta pick your third favorite depending on two scenarios. John and Taylor trade, John and the Taylor not trade. Because nobody's running to get Seth McGowan. Seth McGowan's gonna be the most drop player in fantasy if Taylor, right? If he's Taylor is not traded. So I think it comes down to long-term. It's Knight versus Sampson. So those were two good suggestions. I think short-term you can make the case for Pierre Strong is the third best running pick. - Knight, so Knight's got a real tough matchup this week against the Rams. - And he's gonna have a tough matchup every week. - Well, not really, 'cause he has the Saints next. - Doesn't matter. - Doesn't matter. Well, we'll get this offence. - I okay, and with backup lineman, gosh dude. - No, I don't, I don't why. That's another thing. Like he could have been an a fairly attractive option if they had Gardner Minchew and Michael Wilson and Trey McBride like a normal offense. Now they're just horrible. Maybe they'll throw to their running backs more, but rookie quarterbacks don't do that. So it's a little inconsistent with that. Back had a really good preseason, so yay. All right, that's running back. Wide receiver, Jamie, who are your top three? We haven't talked too much about wide receivers. We got Tank Del and who else? - Tank Del is number one. And Knight Mitchell would be number two. So hopefully the seven targets that he got last week with no catches translates to better production this week with or without Garrett Wilson, 'cause he was very good with Wilson, the previous game. So just keep that in mind. So hopefully we get better production from Mitchell, 63% roster on our site. The third guy I have is kind of contingent on what happens with an injury. So Juan del Robinson is number three. Cardinal Tate is expected to play, but the last time we saw them without Tate was actually Cam Ward's best game against the Bengals. They're not gonna have a lot of success throwing on Jack Smil. They're probably gonna be chasing points against Jaguars. Even if Tate does play Robinson 11 PPR points or more in three of his last five games or four of his last six, I think it might be. So sorry, four of his last six, excuse me. So he's been pretty consistent in that sort of low in range. He's got three touchdowns in those six games. So if Tate does not play for whatever reason, then Juan del is, in my opinion, a top 30 receiver. If Tate plays, he's not far from that anyway. So like the set up for him, but then you have just a lot of, hey, maybe this, maybe that, maybe McIleman if you wanna wait it out for two weeks and you don't get Devante Smith and Duntabian Wicks back, maybe Ryan Flenoy, because of all the injuries and most likely chasing points against the 49ers, but it's not like they were comfortably ahead against the Colton. He had his worst game in terms of targets and Tate has leased him out of catches this season. So there's just a lot of different ways you can go with this. I just think Juan del safe. - All right, Tank Del, Adonai Mitchell, even with Garrett, if you've found out today, Garrett Wilson's playing, Mitchell would still be second for you. - Yeah, it's not a great week. Even Tank Del's not safe. I mean, he had nine targets, it looked great. You also had a great game from Hutchinson, a great game from Booty. It was just a great game from CJ Stroud and I think that's what we're gonna see is a lot of different moving parts for this Texans receiving course. So Del has the upside to be a potential starter for you. That's why you should pick him up first. I don't think we're gonna get consistently nine targets or him leading the team in targets, weekly because that would suck for Nico Collins. But they're just leaning on their passing game right now and so it's a fun passing attack to be attached to. Tank Del, I kind of agree with Josephino 87 that it could be a trap, but still just looking at the group of receivers that we have this week, he's the best of the traps. - Yeah, right. Who is not a trap? - Why'd we receive that? - So then you kind of look at the injury replacements. There's nobody on Arizona that I have any interest in. You go to the Rams, you go back to 2024, 22 at well, average, or score to 11.1 PPR points in three of the five games that-- - 34-5. - 34-5. You go back to week three when Nakuha missed the game and it was Konata Montfield with the huge game against the Broncos in one of the two games that Nakuha missed. So there's just a lot of different ways that the Rams could go. I'm just logically looking at it and saying they're gonna be on their tight ends. A receiver may pop here or there. Hopefully they make a trade before the end of the day because they're still very much in playoff contention so can they get somebody not necessarily like a huge deal. Like they don't think they have to go get Brian Thomas or even Josh Downs. Like can they get a Jerry Judi, a Calvin Ridley or somebody that can just kind of help them a little bit and get them to Devante Adams and then hopefully back to Pukinakua and then this is still a playoff contending team, maybe a Super Bowl contending team. But I think right now, just looking at it, it's pretty awful to say I'm gonna trust this guy. Like Atwell's got nine targets in his last two games. Is he safe? No, but he has the most history and most rapport, best rapport with Matthew Stafford. So if you wanna take a shot on, okay, I don't care about Tank that let somebody else waste their fab on him because as Juice Vino said, it's a trap. I don't wanna take a chance on Wanda Robinson because of his lack of consistency. I don't wanna take a chance on that. And I mentally just had seven targets and no catches. Like maybe this is Matthew Stafford's guy and you dark throw it with the cheap fab bit. I think we all agree though, that Tank Dell is a potential trap that you have to take a chance on. He is so good and he looked great. I mean he's outrunning guys and it's very encouraging. So 22% rostered, how much fab would I spend on Tank Dell? I don't think I'd spend more than like eight or 10% 'cause he didn't play that much and I don't know that he is gonna play that much. And they just spread the ball around. But yeah, you guys in the same range. Totally. A tad higher, tad higher. I'm gonna give you a couple more names here. Shallow Leagues will get to it, but Debo Samuel could have a nice week if he comes back and Evans doesn't. And he's 86% roster in hour leagues, but on sleeper on Yahoo, he's about 70% and then DeMario Douglas is just on fire like four of his last five games have been great. And he is, he is less than 50% rostered on sleeper and Yahoo, DeMario Douglas. So I believe Caleb Douglas is in that same boat. Oh, probably. And I like him better than DeMario Douglas. This week though, if AJ Brown doesn't play against Detroit, no, I like Caleb better long term. Yeah, I would take him over to Mario, even this week against Detroit. All right. I just wish we knew when AJ Brown was coming back because like that could be, I like him and I know I don't disagree with you. I like Caleb Douglas long term. And here's Bob Douglas doing more stuff weekend, weekend, you know, the dolphins have the Colts. It's not like they've got an impossible matchup. No, Colts are, um, Colts are actually better against receivers in the Lions are by lot. 11 against over the bounce of the season. Sure. Yeah. All right. Well, those are some wide receivers. Now Hunter Henry is a guy that we're probably not going to put in our top three because he's over the threshold of 65% rostered in CBS leagues, but just barely. So you can look at Hunter Henry, but Dave, who are some tight ends? Three tight ends to pick up Tyler Higby would be toward the top of the list. If not at the top of the list, 28% rostered on CBS and certainly an opportunity is coming. If there's one guy that we know that's going to play a lot and potentially get in the neighborhood of six targets from Matthew Stafford, I would feel comfortable saying that it's Tyler Higby. If you need a tight end for week 10, Chigel Conqua would be next down Waller would be third. Those guys are widely available as well. We're talking north of 75% of CBS leagues and Terrence Ferguson had a setback on Friday. That's the young tight end for the Rams and Sean McVeigh just lamented about it both with the media and on some team media that he did, they he claimed that they have big plans for him, but they're going to need a couple more weeks. He's on IR. So if you've got IR spots, Ferguson's out there and literally 74% of CBS leagues. You can pick him up, put him on your IR and wait for him to come back and hopefully he makes a difference in the fantasy playoffs. By the way, would you rather Higby or Henry? Henry. Question. I think I'd rather have Henry, but that might change if AJ Brown comes back. I think I'd rather have Higby long term just because of all the injuries in LA. Yeah, I mean, Adams comes back though and I would prefer Henry. Right. Well, we're definitely not getting Adams this week. We might get, we might get, and we might get him in week 12. We might get him in week 12. We might get AJ Brown this week, but it is the Lions great matchup for Hunter Henry if he's available. And someone asked about their safety is getting better though, they're getting Joseph back and they just traded for the guy from the Jets. So you have an improved defense that, again, for what it's worth to shut down Greg Gulls just last week. Yeah, they traded for Andre Sisco, let me see, then okay. So those are your time. I don't know. I forgot the lyrics, we need to do DST and we need to do kicker. And that means it's time for coverage you can count on sponsored by nationwide. Just like your fantasy roster is more than just your offensive starters nationwide as a great insurance company and one of America's largest financial services companies. So don't forget about the defensive side of the ball and remember nationwide is on your side. What do we got, Jamie? So this could change by the end of the day if the Vikings acquire quarterback, but good God, that offense is absolutely future awful disgusting, whatever adjective you want to attach to it. And the Packers have been very good the last couple of weeks. They were amazing last week against the Patriots and this could just be terrible for Minnesota. I know they did better in week one when it got a little bit out of whack with Kyler getting hurt and then Carson Wentz actually looked competent in that game. But you're going to have potentially injured Kyler Murray or Carson Wentz again and the Packers make it Michael Parsons back. Like it could be really good for them. If they get a quarterback, let's just say they get their cousins or maybe they, you know, there's been some maybe Matthew Stafford pipe dreams to go to Minnesota. The Ravens are playing an injured Justin Herbert, which we know that they've been bad with Herbert healthy. So look at them in the Jesse Mitchell. I love it. Oh man. I've been swimming in raw sewage. I love it. Huh? Nobody got that reference. I know where it's all. They're done. Yeah. Part two. I too and a half. I did not forget the lyrics of the song song. I just made a conscious choice not to sing them. Bills against the Jets dolphins at the Colts. These are other options for you. And again, the Bill's defense has played better last two weeks. Their DST is scored very well. And the dolphins is really just looking at a potential Jonathan Taylor trade. Maybe a touchdown trade. Maybe both. And so the dolphins defense coming off a very strong performance against the Lions. They could be a sneaky play this week if the Colts are a stripped down offense. Okay. A further stripped down offense. That was covered Adam wouldn't say the strip part. That was covered. You can count on sponsored by Nationwide. Nationwide is so much more than a great insurance company. One of America's largest financial, financial companies too. So take your game to the next level with Nationwide. For your insurance and financial needs Nationwide is on your side. Nationwide investment services corporation member Finra Columbus, Ohio. Kickers. Yeah. Woo. Kickers. Yeah. Let's get away. Who are the kickers? I wanted apology from both of you from my Dominic Zavada recommendation last week. I thought about that with every single kick he made. I'm sorry about that. Chris Boswell has been fantastic, very underrated in his season that he's having so far. If you're paying attention to kickers and he did well against the Bengals first time round. Zavada again against the commanders coming off his four kick performance, four fillable performance. Here I was actually not been a very good field goal kicker, fantasy kicker, but Cowboys give up a lot of fantasy points to opposing kickers and just keep an eye on the dolphins kicker situation. Zangazal's was reverted back to the practice squad, but the Cole's actually give up the most fantasy points to opposing kickers. So Gonzalez could be a sneaky play. He sees only one percent roster. So easy got to go get it. If you don't get the kicker, you want going through waivers. Team name Tuesday. I've probably used this before. Just to make a lot of on the same team as oil of a lot. Yeah, I mean, your makeup choices are fantastic. I'll be adhered makeup in a few hours, actually. Nice. All right.

So we've mentioned Bryce Young, mentioned Debo Samuel. This is really more for Yahoo and Sleeper, Caleb Douglas and ESPN, I assume. Jamie, what do we got in the shadow of these? Who are the big names to know? You mentioned Bryce Young. Take a look to see if he's available. He was cut after his recent poor performances until what he did last week. I was still looking at Malik Wallace again, hopefully he's healthy, taking on the cult. I think this defense is not one that you fear and hopefully he can get back to doing some of the things that we liked prior to what we saw against the Lions. At Running Back, we have. I'm going to take a look and try to be on Henderson because we don't know how long Reminder is going to be out and hopefully Henderson's healthy if you recall last year. He averaged 24.3 fan to PPR points in the three games that Stevenson missed. He could be an absolute league winner when he's healthy. You got David Montgomery. We'll see what he looks like when he comes back. Obviously, Woody Marx has not run away with the job in the last month that he's had it. Rico Dattle has been very good in his last two games, make sure he's not on waivers. Chris Rodriguez has actually caught the ball, three catches in his last two games, but he's also scored two touchdowns in his last two games. We don't know how healthy Basel Tutan is after playing a limited amount of snaps, but clearly that's a lottery ticket as well. Caleb Black has been very good in terms of his production, his workload the last two weeks, double digits and carries the last two games. So he's clearly getting some work to be a flex option and is a lottery ticket as well. Well, I'd receive where you mentioned Debo Samuel, so take a look to see if he's not on waivers, loved Mario Douglas with what he's been doing. Both Brown's receivers are in this range, so keep an eye on if Denzel Boston or Casey Concepcion were dropped. Keenan Allen did not have a great game last week, but it's now 7+ targets in four of his last five or five of his last six, five of his last six, yeah. Five of his last six was seven plus targets. Obviously, Jordan Tyson didn't have a great game in his debut, but should 1,000% be rostered everywhere you go. They've talked about Caleb Douglas. He has now scored, so I get the numbers right, Douglas has scored at least three PPR points. At least three, he has scored 13 PPR points in three of his four healthy games. So he did play the majority of week two, but he did leave that game. So three of his four healthy game, 13 or more PPR points. Jeremy Bernard, we'll see what the Steelers passing attack looks like coming off of their buy week. And then you want to, huh? Who's the best? The best of the guys I just named them are out double, like, you know, you just, you can't ignore the production. And he finally added, you know, a great game without score on a touchdown, five catches over 100 yards. That's what you've been waiting for, you know, for him is just not being touchdown reliant, but he's just been so consistent and a go-to guy for Drake May in what should be issued out against the Lions in Germany. But Caleb Douglas right behind him, you know, again, the Steelers guys also right there, as well. Tide ends, you have Hunter Henry mentioned 69% rostered, clearly somebody that you want to invest in. I don't love the match up for TJ Hawkson this week, but he's been very consistent and wasn't an awful game for him last week was, or last night was seven PPR points. Micah Seki's touchdown streak ended at five, but three or more targets every game this season. 12.7 PPR points more. One of those games was against the Steelers in week three, Brenton Strange. I know it's been frustrating the last two weeks, but I still want to roster him. And those will be the Titans. Dave. Yeah. He's wasting our time talking about these shallow league guys, I mean, deep league, not at least guys are available in my league, what do we got? Why do I still laugh? Cam Ward is out there in a little more than 80% of CBS leagues. If you can stomach it, he does have Jacksville Jamie talked about it, that defense got significantly better. Three new starters on that unit. I would be nervous to start him, but that's the type of quarterback that you're looking at. If I consider pivoting to Shadour Sanders, just in case he is named the starter for Cleveland, don't really love the matchup against Houston, then again, a lot of quarterbacks have done well against Houston this year, but Shadour Sanders finished strong against New Orleans and he's out there in over 90% of leagues. So those would be the two. And then obviously keep the antenna up on what the Raiders do on Tuesday, because Fernando Mendoza could end up being their starter for the rest of the season. He's out there in 80% of leagues. If you are crazy, you can go after Carson Beck, throwing to Devin DuVernay and Trey McBride, he's out there in 95% of leagues. And then if what if Jay J. McCarthy doesn't play, then James Winston would be there. What if Daniel Jones is traded, Anthony Richardson would be the quarterback that's 95% if you're still listening. You're crazy. Running backs, we already talked about most of the running backs that are available in deeper leagues, estimate, Kyner, Pierre Strong, Caleb Johnson. Do I have any other ones? No, not really. I don't have anyone that I feel good about. You can go and maybe consider Tank Bigsby as an IR stash. He's available in 80%. Let's go to the wide receivers that are out there. Jordan Watkins would be right behind Tank Dallas, as far as those deeply receivers to go get. I just don't know what type of long-term appeal there is for Jordan Watkins, but should be the right type of gamescript environment for him against Dallas in week 10. Jack Collins, Xavier Hutchinson, you know, kind of right in line with what we talked about with Tank Dell. Hutchinson is the slot receiver for Usin, probably for the rest of the year. And if there's going to be a lot of games where the outside receivers or, you know, the offenses just play too high all the time against C. J. Stroud, then underneath throws will be there for Hutchinson. So in those deep leagues, maybe you can get by with him as a like a PPR option. And a lot of like five catch 50 yard type games for good old X in Houston. And then the tight ends. We talked about them a lot already too, Higby, Ferguson long-term, Higby short-term, O'Connor short-term, Darren Waller short-term. I don't even think we need to go any further than that. A couple other receivers, just in case Traylon Berks is out. You got a great game from Van Jeffersen as he led them in all the receiving category. So just something to keep an eye on there. And then Efton Chisholm III, he's now played well in four of the six games. Three of the six games that AJ Brown has missed. It's basically any time he gets four targets, he's been successful. So we don't expect Brown to come back this week. Okay. And we're, who are you from? I had something really, oh, Anthony Richardson. There is a clause in Daniel Jones' contract. He has an injury guarantee. It's happened before. We've seen it with, I think, Russell Wilson. We saw it with Daniel Jones on the Giants, I believe. If he gets hurt, his contract becomes guaranteed or like 10 million or 11 million guaranteed next year. So they really have no incentive to keep playing him at some point. It might happen, you know, they said they weren't going to trade him, which is weird. But it's very possible they bench Daniel Jones at some point in it. So if you're in a super flex league and you want to stash, I was hoping that, you know, it would be not Anthony Richardson, but it seems like it's going to be Anthony Richardson if they go to someone. You know, it could happen sooner rather than later, honestly. You know, it's funny. You say you hope it wouldn't be Anthony Richardson. Who's he going to ruin? Keenan Allen. Yeah. Tyler Warren. Tyler Warren. Yeah. I mean, like, I know that one sucks, but I'd rather see like Anthony Richardson. He could be a great fantasy quarterback. I think you could have some great weeks. I don't want to be a great fantasy quarterback plate. He's fun. I mean, woo. Is he? Yeah. Yeah. He's fun. You know, it's not fun. He's offence. They lose 23 to 6. The Buffalo Buffalo had the ball for 42 minutes and 32 seconds. That is less than 18 minutes of possession for the Minnesota Vikings. Dave, can we trust any Minnesota Viking going forward, you know, on a weekly basis? Not saying drop them, but Akrien Bay this week. Can we start even Justin Jefferson? You can start them. I think you'd lower expectations. I'd like to know who the quarterback is going to be. But if it's, let's say it's Kurt Cousins, and they make a deal for Cousins after all, I'd feel a lot better about Justin Jefferson in that scenario. Almost any other quarterback. And I'd get a little squeamish, call the top 16 receiver, not a top 12 wide receiver. Hockinson would be a low end start. I think we're done with Jordan Addison at this point, just too much risk in the floors to gross. The running backs are splitting a little too evenly and in the case of last night, they're just not getting a lot of work. It's hard to feel good about any Vikings players. Would you rather have DJ Moore or Justin Jefferson rest of season? As of now, hopefully changes by the end of the day. Right, yeah, yeah. I mean, I think it's close. And for now, it's Jefferson. I got to see the, you know, one thing I want to say, I posted on X. I don't want to see the Vikings get a quarterback. I want to see Justin Jefferson trade it away. And I just got killed by Vikings fans. Come with you though. That dream might come true eventually, just now. He, he quote, quote, tweeted it and said, all the chiefs draft fixed right now. I saw that. I laughed. That was good stuff. DJ Moore played 78% of the, ran 78% of the routes, which I was just kind of wide. That's that number surprises me because I feel like he's off the field a ton. I feel like he, it's like a tell when DJ Moore's off the field, they almost always run, I think, but I was pretty annoyed at this game. He had the deep ball target and what an incredible interception by Byron Murphy. That could have been, that could have made DJ Moore's day, but I'll continue to start him without any hesitation. He was only started on 53% of leaks. So good job, everyone. The projections were awful, you know, understandably so and it played itself, it played out that way. It was, it was a bad week for wide receivers. You were hoping that DJ Moore was going to be, you know, the go-to guy for, for Josh Allen, which essentially was, but, you know, it's just that defense is just so amazing. This is the frustrating part about if you're a Vikings fan, and you just like to see good football. They are wasting a great defense. They are wasting a historical defense, then it's, it's maddening that they don't make a move or they haven't made a move already and just thought, "Oh, hey, Carson once will fix things." Or, you know, maybe Kyler will get, get things right, like, I'm not saying that they could have pried cousins away from the Raiders earlier than, then maybe today or even Daniel Jones is the right answer because he was with Kevin O'Connell for a minute, like, did whatever you have to do. They have a legitimate, am I paying a legitimate chance to be a Super Bowl team? Yeah. Because that defense is so good. Like, go to the 49ers and get whatever, offer whatever you can from Actones. I know it's an overpay. Who cares? Yeah, you only get, you only get a few shots to win the Super Bowl. They got a few more caliber defense. Last thing here on this game, would you drop Dalton Kincaid for Tyler Higby? No. I don't know if I really would love to have either one on my roster, but I don't, I don't worry about this game. Kincaid looked great the last, last week. Yeah. And when DJ Moore's been on the field, Heath is right. He's been very good. Like, the Minnesota was going to make things tough on him, like, yeah, but, you know, I just look at it. They made things tough on everybody. It's been very, yeah, but one thing about Higby is that he could have a pathway to, like, reliably six plus targets a game, maybe for the foreseeable future. Hey, we could also be trash. He's been trash for the last month with the Volta Adams not there. And Concaid's had a lot of trashy games too. This is the reason why I don't feel great about either of these guys. You're trashy. Let's go to the drop-o meter. Zero to ten. We'll call people trashy. Dallas, Dallas Goddard. He's drop-o-bull. So I struggled, I put him as a drop candidate in the column. He's actually been 9.8 PPR points or more in three of his last four games. So his floor has been good a couple of games with double digits. He has not scored a touchdown since week one. So depending on your format, if you don't want to carry him through your buy, we got it. Have they thrown a touchdown since the week one? Oh, nicks. Zero to ten. Two. I kind of want to keep him, yeah. Yeah. Quarterbacks. I'm playing better. Las Vegas coming out of the buy. Kirk Cousins. Let's say, let's say he stays with the Raiders. Two. I was going to say zero, because he's got Seattle this week, then at Denver. All right. We should have had such a better game against the 49ers. It's so sad. J.K. Dobbins. Seven. Five. Kyle. He's a hiccup. He has a hiccup. He has a hiccup. Kyle pits. Zero. As I said, Sunday, it's like, you know, if you want to pivot to Higby fine, I probably would still carry pits and Higby at the same time, like four. So let's get to the waiver wire. We can talk about players to drop a quarterback. You have Malik Willis in the shallow league area. But would you rather have Gino Smith or Malik Willis this week? Right now, Gino Smith, are you assuming that that's with Garrett Wilson coming back this week? I mean, just given how concussions have been and the fact that Cooper is not technically on the injury report, like it was just that and I Mitchell, then I'd be concerned. But if it's two of the guys, I'd be fine with it. And by the way, would you drop Matthew Stafford? Yes. Smaller leagues for sure, 12 team leagues. He's droppable. So he'd be like a five on your dropometer. 13 fantasy points were last each of his last two games and now he doesn't have Bukka and Adams, like, this is run run and run some more. Like you may get a 180 and three touchdown game from Emmys because he's done that before, you know, one of those type of games. But there's no real, like, confidence. How can you be well, I think you would you would have to make the case that they're playing Arizona this week. But even if you don't want to use him, if he gets Arizona this week, then a buy, if you can hold them for two weeks, if he gets the Vante Adams back, you know, he's he was really good with Adams and no Puka earlier this year. But I have it. Elbow was good. Elbow was good. Yeah. Maybe the buy week will help. Um, I have them in two leagues and I don't know if I'm going to drop him, but I can guarantee you I'm picking up a quarterback. Of course. Let's start him. And so that's why he's droppable. But there's also a case that could be made that down the line. Adams is back. Nikuah is back. Yeah. Lines healthy. You could certainly see Stafford come back to being a top 12 quarterback. I got to. That's optimistic. But it's possible. I got a stupid question for you. And I shouldn't ask it because why we got an AMA started early. Yeah. Did Puka Nikuah get turf toe on the same play that he got the knee injuries? I have no idea. I mean, that guy, we were talking about this Sunday, like, he's basically running back just as much as he touches the ball. And I don't know if you saw, I don't know what show it's on, but TJ Hussman's out of said, if I'm never getting the ball, I want every jet sweep possible. If I'm getting 19 targets of game, don't ever give me a jet sweep. And Sean McVague, you know, they've talked about him, you know, some of the things that about Terrence Ferguson, like he was beating himself up for calling that play rightfully so like that. No need for that. Yeah. It's a shame. Okay. So, Geno Smith's number one. Aaron Rogers is so interesting to me. This is one of the most intriguing matchups because you just figure he's got to throw the ball more right. And since the night he's going to run up the score, he has, he's been throwing 31 or fewer pass attempts in three of the last four games. Those were a 12 point win, a six point win, a 21 point win against the Colts, the Saints, and the Browns. Those teams can't score. Now the Bengals second best offense in football. If Rogers throws, I don't know if I'm so interested in him. It does make me interested in Jeremy Bernard, unless Michael Pittman's, is Michael Pittman going to be back this week? I don't care about Pittman. If it's, if it's both Pittman and Roman Wilson, that's Terrence Ferguson. Yeah. You're probably right. But, you know, you've seen bad production from Rogers, as they've been super run heavy. That's the other thing they can run on Cincinnati. I don't know how, I don't know how this is going to play out. It's a really intriguing game to me. Just to put it out there. Yeah. You can tell me Rogers is 25 points this week and I'd say, yeah, believe it. You can tell me he's 15 points. Yeah. I believe that too. Right. That's because the run game is doing the thing. That's what worries me more than anything. Is that the sealers just come out of the buy, running just as well as they did going into the buy. And since the night's defense has been so juggle and hide, Pittman is eligible to come off of IR this week. Not Roman Wilson. Roman Wilson, you got to wait at least one more week. Okay. So, Bressette. I mean, Bressette only has one good game this year. One game is more than 18 and a half points. Zay Flowers, no disrespect to Triopic Brides. Zay Flowers will be the most talented player that he's throwing to this year. And he could just, yeah, I mean, he could give Bressette some cheap fantasy points. Just give him the ball and let him run 60 yards for a touchdown. Chargers just gave up 45 points to stride before that they were pretty good. Carson Beck is a deep league or a two quarterback league guy. This is what I'd point out about Beck. Rams and chiefs in the next two games, Yuck, terrible team around him. Unfortunately for the, for the cart like, I guess if you're desperate, you need someone on a two cube league, his schedule is unbelievable beginning in week 12. We talked about this all year. Yeah, right? Amazing. So, at least it's something to hang your hat on. Any interest real quick in Michael Panic's junior against the chiefs? He's only had a couple of really good games this year and I feel like maybe that chiefs front turned a corner against the Jets last week. And so I'd be nervous to trust him. Okay, when you look at Michael Panic's against the chiefs, Shadur Sanders or Watson against Houston, Drew Locke at Las Vegas, would you start any of them over Matthew Stafford? No. I don't. Maybe. Maybe Panic's like, there's probably more upside. I mean, Drew Locke, you know, the Raiders have allowed 20 or more fantasy points to a quarterback game. They're protecting his elbow though. They're just going to run the crap out of the ball. I would think so. Yeah. All right. And I don't, you know, I think I'd be more interested in James than McCarthy at this point, but that could be a sneaky one against Washington if you need a quarterback. All right. Running backs. Uh, yeah. I trade on Henderson's definitely someone I'm going to be just have no idea what his timeline is. Definitely going to be looking at on waivers. See if maybe we get a, I mean, don't you think that that whole statement that he made was kind of a sea in next year type thing? See you in a while. Yes. I do think that. He also may, you know, we have no idea what his mental state is clearly. He also may be looking at it as his best success in his NFL career so far came during those three games when Ramon Drake was out. And now he may say, I can go be the guy that I was drafted to be again. And maybe people are in his ear. Tell him that again. And it's all speculation. So I don't. He has to fly to Germany. So that. No, I don't think it's this week. Right, right. So he's. I think you're picking up. You're picking up driving on Henderson, hoping that he's healthy, hoping everything is right with him. And then coupling that with a Ramon Drake, Stevenson, lengthy absence. And also not just the like, I got, I got this opportunity, but also my team needs me, who may be motivated him, but obviously, of course, we hope everything's okay with him and he gets better soon. Of course. That's the biggest. Audrey, guess the May Corey Kiner. We talked about them extensively at the top of the show, Seth McGowan. If Jonathan Taylor gets traded, Seth McGowan, would he be your number one priority? Short-term versus long-term, you know, if my teams in a good spot, probably would pick up McGowan and not worry about wasting spending fab on estimate and Kiner, if I don't need them, Kiner could have some long-term appeals as well. And listen, estimate two could also, you know, they may, they've used multiple backs almost every game this season. So it could just be estimate and HN as the two two headed monster there. And they may just work estimate work HN in slowly and use them on passing downs to make sure that his hamstring is right. So I think you can kind of look at all these guys kind of in a similar scenario. The cults are going to just be such a bad team, you know, so, you know, you kind of, it was funny because Dave, and I understand why it was like, why would I want them a night? They're going to be that. Why would I want? Seth McGowan. I'm excited about it. I'm not. All right. I think-- I'm out of the culture and a better spot than the Cardinal. So you're saying if Jonathan Taylor got traded, you'd still rank estimate and Kiner ahead of McGowan this week? Yeah. This week, I'm not sure, because it is McGowan against Miami. And if SMA is the lead back for New Orleans, I don't think there's any reason to put McGowan. They're running defenses. They're headed better. They are. It's true. McGowan would probably be third. If all things stay the way they are, there's no HN, there's no Trayvon Henderson. We've got a feature back in New Orleans in SMA. We have a feature back in Kiner and we have a feature back in McGowan. Yeah, I'm pretty sure McGowan would-- he'd be no better than second. Probably third. I would struggle with McGowan in Kiner. I would too. Right. And then like-- But for now, it's Kiner. You could just pick up if he's available, Dylan Samson, who-- Yeah, but it's just such a low ceiling. Yeah, for sure. I floor. He's getting-- Mostly. Look, none of these guys-- he doesn't really have a high floor. He could have a terrible game, but he's getting, you know, 10-ish PPR fantasy points on-- You saw his bad game last week, right? at 7.8 in full PPR. And you know what? There's a lot of fantasy managers that have some real problems of running back. They might settle for Dylan Sampson. Or Justice Hill might be able to deliver that as well. He's another one. It's four straight games with at least three catches. And now you got percent who's not going to be mobile comparatively to Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley. If they get behind, I don't think it happens this week, but moving forward. Then it's a lot of Justice Hill's, we saw last week against Jacksonville. So he's a very sneaky yet. You have the whole minute. You said it's the Jesse Minerable. You have the whole former defensive coordinator going up against the offense. And he knows the personnel. I would be shocked if the chargers had a good game this week. It should be a Derek Henry week. All right. So if you had a pick after S the main kinder, would you rather was on of a night or a packer's running back? Again, that's long term, short term. So long term, I'd rather have sound of a night because I think he'll be the best card Cardinals running back as we saw in the first games that Jeremiah Love missed. If we're talking short term, I think it's pure strong. The Christopher Brooks part of this is the thing that throws me off because strong didn't get playing time until Brooks went on IR. So do they go back to Brooks in that role? And then it's whoever of the two bigger backs Caleb Johnson or Marshal Lloyd or running down the backs, I should say, is the is the is the first is the running down's option. And then it's Brooks in the third down passing down role as opposed to Pierce Trump. In the game that Brooks got heard in, I believe he started. And he might have been like given a huge opportunity to go out there and play. And I don't think he's going to get that in his first game back. And we don't know when his first game back will even be. I kind of want to steer clear of all these Packers running backs. So give me night ahead of them. Okay. For what it's worth. You've got Chris Brooks's average five four point seven yards per carry this year. But not how many carries? 15. Yeah. No one else has come even close to that, including Jacobs. All right. Moving on to the wide receivers and that could be where John Taylor ends up by the end of the day. I'd be pretty interesting. Boy, that is North slugfest. Okay. DiMario Douglas. We like a lot in the shallow leagues. So the Browns receivers are super interesting. Karen Allen reliably getting the targets. Jordan Tyson ran 57%. So what I like about he only ran about 35% of the routes. Jordan Tyson ran 57% of the routes in the fourth quarter and over time. So they increase his usage as the game was in the balance. And he had a 31.3% target per out run rate. So I think it was a positive debut for Jordan Tyson. We like Caleb Douglas. Jeremy Bernard could definitely bounce back because he's had a 22.7% target share in three of his last four games. Just need them to throw the ball more. A lot of good options out there. And then you got like Cortland Sutton in the shallow leagues, Pat Brian in the deeper leagues. But you probably would think Jaylen Wattell would come back after it. Bye. All right. So that gives us Tank Dell at an I Mitchell who we talked about earlier. Wondale Robinson. We'd like to see. Well, Jamie said Karnel Tate expected to play. But Kyle Eman is tough. You know, he's been so reliable for the 12-ish fantasy points. It was 60-ish yards every game. But what happens if Devonte Smith comes back after the buy? And then do you want to like, do you want Antonio Williams on your roster at this point, fellas? I don't mind speculating on him. Still. It's hard to carry players like this because when they're not productive, you can pivot to Fenway and say, okay, maybe it's him. You could pivot to a Rams receiver and say, maybe it's him. So I just don't want to give up on a talented player. It's still an opportunity. I drop him like a bad habit for Tank Dell. Oh, I agree with that. Yeah. Yeah. Fenway, like. And I'll go further. I would drop him for Jordan Watkins if I needed a wide receiver badly in week 10. And I think Flanois is sneaky this week. I know people are really pissed and I get it. But, you know, the Niners are going to put up a lot of points against the Cowboys. They're going to have to throw a ton and Ferguson's out. And Mingo got hurt. I don't know what his status is going to be. Don't give up yet. And he may look, he may be one of these guys that's better with Pickens on the field because of where he lines up. Maybe. Yeah, that's true. Don't forget about the Niners receivers like Jordan Watkins. He only had four targets. He caught all of them for 86 yards in the touchdown. I thought he looked really good. He's super fast. He's fun. If they've been wrapping him up. Yeah. If Debo doesn't play, would you bump Watkins up this list? Would he be ahead of Juan Dale? Would he be ahead of Flanoi? You could certainly make a argument for it. You know, it's just again, short-term long-term. Yeah. Like Dave said, if you need somebody for this week, Watkins has a great opportunity. We can get to the end of the week, though. And Debo's healthy, good to go. And then that makes it a little tough to trust Watkins. And then we get to next week and they're both back in terms of Evans and Debo. Right. And so it's even more challenging. Okay. And then pick a Rams receiver if you had to. To-to. That's who I'd pick. Pick a Patriots receiver other than Douglas. I go Chisholm over Hollins, but they're like flip a coin. I'd go Hollins over Chisholm because I think he'll continue to see snaps even when AJ Brown comes back. Khalil Shakira will get you about 10 points. And I guess just keep an eye on Jacobi Myers and the shallow reliefs. He's had a target share of 21% or higher in three straight games when Trevor Lawrence has been on the field. And two of his next three games are against the Titans who give up the most fantasy points to wide receivers. At tight end, Brenton's strength. They'll be watching in the fourth quarter when they're up by three. I keep forgetting to mention this about the Titans and their offense has been better lately. They have run over the last, their last two games, week seven and eight by far the most no-huddle plays in the NFL. They have made that change on offense. It seems to be helping Cam Ward a little bit. Yes. So maybe to continue. So maybe better times are ahead for the Titans offense. It's tough stretch with the jaguars coming up into their next three. All right. You like Brent and Stranger Hunter Henry or TJ Hawkinson. Henry followed by Stranger. Who's the quarterback Hawkinson? I still got seven targets last game. This week I would go strange over Hawkinson. The packers just eliminate Titans. And Tyler Higby is our favorite guy. The widely available on the waiver wire. O'Connor, Darren Waller, man, he could still play. He really can. Yes. I just wish there'd be more consistency. It just came out of nowhere. Absolutely nowhere. I know. It's the three previous games. It was exactly two targets in each game. Yeah. Can't trust it. But the Saints are really bad against Titans. 26 against Titans. That's Waller's matchup. This also feels like a get right game for both TET and Terrell McGillan and Jaylen Cooker. Tough matchup this week for Michael Mayer. I may not want to go with him. And then there's the Steelers. You got Darnel Washington on here. You don't have had Friday's on here. They're facing the Bengals usually a tight end. Usually a Steelers tight end does something good against the Bengals. So Washington's actually, like you said, he's fun. He doesn't get a lot of targets, but it's 9.7 PPR points are more than four of his last six games. Last time we saw him in week eight, three catches for 94 yards on five targets. And he had that 9.7 is actually the game against the the Bengals. He had the better game of the two out of him and Firemuth. So it's just there's no there's no consistency with it. Firemuth in that game against the Browns a weekend at a rushing touchdown. Which, you know, hey, give that to one of the backs. Yeah, I don't think you can say I have to have Darnel Washington, but it's hard to overlook just that low end production that he's giving him. He'd think of him as a touchdown or bus running back. He's a touchdown. He leads the team in end zone targets. He's tied for second in red zone targets, three touchdowns on the year Firemuth technically is more. I don't think there's anything technical about it. He just does, but he is fun. Just not somebody that we would put at the priority for tight ends. Well, technically, well, technically four is more than three. No, no, I was doing Billy Madison. I know. Shut up. All right, DSDs Packers. Yes, go get them Ravens, Bills, Dolphins, Kickers, Barswell, Zavada, Zavada, Zavada, Zavada, Zavada, hey, hey, Pinyero and Zane Gonzalez. Last question from the chat from Pucci's uncle, Adam, I have burnt rice stuck at the bottom of a pot. How do I get how do I get that clean? What I would do is I would just put some water in there and let it soak for several hours. See if you can loosen it up. And then I have a wooden spoon that is just my scraping spoon. It's not going to scratch your pot. Use your wooden spoon to scrape it all off. Good luck to you. Good luck to all of you on the waiver wire today. Enjoy your waiver wire night. Yeah. What's the over under on emergency podcast? Two, one and a half, one and a half. Yeah, I'll say 0.5 because I probably just do one, but I think we just do one. Yeah. All right, Dave's going to use a private browser for his waiver claims tonight. We'll talk to you tomorrow. We'll talk to you in an hour on the AMA. It's Cory Connor. Take that.
