1:01Welcome into fantasy, focused football on a Wednesday, September 23rd. The boys are back in town. Mike is fine. So be careful with how much music you play. Oh, sorry. It's six seconds for it. No, that's actually incorrect. That's not a real thing. I was so easy. That's not real. That's not real. That is one thing I actually do know. Hey, alongside Mike Clay excited to see your face again, bud, and feel G8s. You excited to see my face? You guys both. Well, I'm excited to see your upper half because you guys look good with these neck tattoos today. Paying off the punishments. Why didn't you put one on? I did put one on. I put three of them on for what it's worth. Which one's three? Yeah, what did you put on? Let me see yours. Those are the coolest one, right? A motorcycle with flames. I might keep this actually. Yeah, that's a cool motorcycle. By the way, I'm offended because we had a pile here of options. And one of the ones that was put in front of my a little station here.

2:02What's this? Oh, the house. That's one. How dare you? First, those are pretty sweet. Is that I black? Kind of looks like it. So, but it's the wrong team. Those are healing stick tattoos as well. I wear a cow's. The chances that I bring those home and give those to my daughters today. 100. Very high. Very high on that one. There you can have them. I'm not. How dare you? They'll probably be like, oh, Cowboys, this is the coolest thing ever, but I'm more of a cowgirl myself. What'd you pick? I picked two. Actually, so these came on little sleeves. And I didn't realize there were two tattoos on the ones that you got. I thought we just had one large tattoo. So, I think this right here is some roses. Okay, got it. And then this one, I think it's more roses just in a different orientation. Got it. I kind of like it. I like it. I think you look good with it. I'm not going to lie. Yeah, I know guys now. Yeah. This is what happened. This is how it works. You get a couple, then you get the itch, and you just can't stop. Have you ever thought about getting a tattoo? I have not. No. No, I've not thought about it. Norva, yeah, I haven't. And I've always, but I have wondered if I ever were to get a tattoo. What would compel me to get a tattoo? And what would it be?

3:04Oh, mine would obviously be an Excel spreadsheet. Like, home. Yes, it would be. I thought you were going to say, like, you know, if the Eagles won three straight super bowls, it would eventually get Nick Sireoni and Jalen Hertz tattooing a shoulder. No, maybe Nick Fulc. I could see you having a list of the best athletes from the Brook School. Yeah. You can have like a homage to your wife, obviously, across the top, you know what I mean? I picked, when I did my three, I did one for my mom, which is in the middle here, it says mom. Yeah, see that. I got three. I got to do the other one is, I believe it. Rose. Oh, it's over there. That one. Rose around an old CD. So it's very fitting. Oh, yeah. That's for your, and old CD is called the vinyl record. That's what old CDs are called, guys. That's all right. But some of these people listening, probably don't even know the CD is. That's true. And then the other one, I think, is, it's a tiger fighting a snake. Yeah, basically what Rosie's back piece is. Rosie has a whole back piece. That's a tiger fighting a dragon that goes from like her back all the way to her. She is like, you guys are equals in tattoo. Yes. No, she's got more than I do. So you put thought and love in tears, I just picked a cool looking motorcycle lane coming out.

4:04Is it doing tattoo guys? Your dream vehicle right there. Well, very excited to pay off our start of the week punishment. Eels to be clear. I have to, yes, we'll have to spend a huge, amazing. Who has a new punishment this week? Let's dive into a little bit of news here before we get into the show, my friends. Yeah. Unfortunately, sad news. Jackson dark undergoing season ending surgery, my friends. Like I don't care for that at all. Yes, likely. Yeah. But we are, we are assuming that this is going to happen. If you have Jackson dark, you need to be making other plans on. Yeah, when Adam tweets that it's, they're considering season ending surgery. And then his next text is like, this will be the court. It's James wins. And this will be the quarterback for the rest of the season. It's like, okay, we got we kind of know the writing. I look good. It would take probably the giants like really hanging around. Like maybe even leading the NFC and Jackson dark having an incredible surgery slash recovery for him to be back on the field this year. I have Jackson dark and two leagues. He was my drop player on waivers last night. So it sucks. Just this one. I mean, this one really hurts. Like it always sucks when a player gets hurt early in a game and you're starting him.

5:09It takes the wind out of your sales, especially on Monday night football. Because in a lot of cases, it's if that player scores X number of points, I win my matchup. If he falls short of X, I'm in the defeat lane. But this one sucks also because Jackson dark and this is Mike's guy. Yeah. Like Mike, he's not as bad. QB1 overall type potential. Maybe QB2 because Josh Allen still exists. But in week one, he looked every bit the part of the superstar. The giants had the most designed runs for any quarterback in week one. He threw the football effectively. He breathed real life into this giants offense. This takes not just the wind out of the fantasy sales for all of us that have Jackson dark, but also just the giants prospects for this upcoming year. I'll ask you though, Malik neighbors, Isaiah likely, how much of a downgrade in value? Just definitely move them down a little bit. I'm hoping that, I mean, here's the problem is we don't know week to week, which team is when Simmer going to get, you know, but the good news is that when he has played in recent years, he has put up big numbers. I mean, I look back at the last time he played an extended run of playing time,

6:13six full games with Cleveland in 2024. Guys, he averaged 20.3 fantasy points per game. Obviously for putting up those kind of numbers, most of it through the air with him. Yeah, it's very little with his legs. That's going to be good for the past catchers last year, two games with the giants. 11 points, not good, but then 32.2. Then next week. So he can put up numbers. He didn't look great the other night, but obviously that's kind of a unique circumstance coming into the game. You're not really expecting to play that much. So they'll adjust the game plan for sure going forward. But just the fact that it's James, so it's when we say this about him all the time, there are way worse circumstances as far as backup quarterbacks go. So as long as he's throwing it to neighbors, seven, eight, nine, 10 times a game, he's going to be fine. And I don't think Isaiah likely is going anywhere. He's a feature guard of soft edge. As long as they can support those two guys, well, he find and obviously cams, scataboods, the other fantasy relevant guy there. His concern is already no passing down work anyway. So as long as he keeps getting 17 carries, he'll be okay in the flex conversation. But as far as the past getters go, at least it's Winston. We have some hope here.

7:13Field, I want you to really quickly because you do a great job of explaining this. Right now in our game, Jackson Dart, not officially on IR yet. People are like, when can I put him on IR? So I can go grab another quarterback. How does that work? When is that change going to happen? I know people are mad about this. And I'm sure they were mad last night when they couldn't just IR Jackson Dart and create an open spot for way to do it either. Yeah, we are all in the same boat. If the giants put Jackson Dart on injured reserve today, he immediately becomes IR eligible. I'm going to guess the giants will wait until Saturday afternoon. They did make a bunch of roster moves yesterday. One of them was not moving Jackson Dart to IR. I'm guessing it'll happen Saturday at four. If the giants come out and say today, Jackson Dart will not play on Sunday. His designation will change to out as well. For now, the only people that are saying Jackson Dart's going to miss time definitively are reporters like those at ESPN. Correct. I know that gets people really frustrated. It's the way it works right now. It's a conversation starter for us at the very least.

8:15But Jackson Dart at this moment, I've got 1007 on my watch East Coast time is not IR eligible. And by the way, after that Adam Scheff to report Jim Harboh was asked about this. And he said, sorry, John Harboh is asked about this. And he said they're still evaluating. So he didn't say he's out this week. So obviously, he's still doubtful. He's not out. No, it sucks. We get it sucks. We're dealing with the two. But it is. It's just the process. And it's fine. When Adam Scheff tweets that we know that the writing is on the wall, 99.8% of the time, it's going to be this thing. But we still have to wait for it to actually happen before we can also follow through with an argument. This is my last thought on it because I totally get the frustration. I'm in the same boat. I'm actually not what we all like to have thrown. I've got a team where I have a short bench and I have nobody else who's IR eligible. Would be great to move someone to IR. It becomes a problem. Like I'm just going to use this as an example. If Adam Scheff, there are anybody. Scheff, there would be money on it. But if somebody were to tweet, JK Dobbins is not expected to play this weekend after he got banged up in week two.

9:18And then people said, all right, well, he's not expected to play. According to report from this outlet, we make him IR eligible because we declare him out. And then he ends up playing on Sunday because it's a short term injury. When we're the other, that's the gray area, right? So you kind of have to have we need the team to say it. Or the team to put the player on IR for our system to deem the player IR eligible. I get your frustration. Please take it up with my clay NFL. That's right. My clay NFL. I want more questions for you. Put your NFL live hat on for a second. I think the giants, maybe look at a quarterback, maybe give a deraqar call, maybe just throw it into the air. I was thinking about that was that wasn't for me. I thought you were asking me to put my NFL live. I had to. Sorry, Mike. Sorry. My guess is they probably hold the fort with Jamest Winston because if Jamest Winston doesn't play well, then they're probably not going to be staying in the race. Like they could be one in three before you know it. If he does play well, then they're just going to ride it out with Jamest. The one that I think is just interesting and I have no reason to believe that this is going

10:20to happen. There's just been a lot of people speculating on this. Would you call Minnesota about JJ? Oh, Vield. JJ was of course in that draft where the giant was trying to move up to trade up for Drake May. Right? Yeah. I just don't know if he's better than Jamest Winston. I don't know. It's a developmental developmental piece, but also like darts to quarterback next year anyway. You'd have been trade McCarthy way. I'm not ready for the Jackson Dart offseason conversations that I think are going to happen. If he does, in fact, miss the whole year. I think you're going to hear a lot of like Jackson darts really talented. We haven't seen it for a prolonged period of time. And the bigger question is whether Jackson Dart can actually stay healthy. Yeah. Now the quarterback's not staying healthy. Unfortunately, not only is Caleb Williams likely out. Although that's not a technically official yet. Tyson Beijing in the concussion protocol. And so it feels like Keith Keenam is going to be our starter here guys. Can it get worse than what we've already got? Let me ask you this. How have you adjusted the projections with now this third string quarterback under center for players? Yeah. I'll keep an eye on that for now. I still have Beijing in there right now.

11:21I believe a Beijing. A Beijing's in the concussion protocol. Obviously we'll monitor that. I'll make that change if it looks more like he's going to sit out this week. But it'll go, I mean, obviously, I move the offense expectations down as we went to Beijing. As far as the Keenam will move it down a little bit further as well. But I'm not sure really matters much of its Keenam versus Beijing. I don't know. I mean, here's the thing. Beijing hasn't scored this. I can't wait for this. I looked last night. He hasn't scored 13 points in a fantasy game since you're ready for this. This is wild. 2019. You mean Keenam. Keenam, what did I say? Beijing. Oh yeah, Keenam. Yeah. 2019 was the last time he scored 13 fantasy points in a game. He has just not played very much. He has played one full game over the last three years. It's kind of unreal. So this guy's been around a while, but he just hasn't played. He's just kind of chilling as a number two or three quarterback. Yeah, I definitely have concerns about them, especially going up against a good Eagles offense. So I don't think I think it's fair to say there's no line up locks in Chicago right now. There's some borderline guys. I love learning. And lovely. And geometry swift, of course, but swift in terms of the past sketchers.

12:24Yeah, seven say burden and level under the closest, but I'd be nervous about this one for sure. At least for this week. So I'd be nervous if Caleb Williams were out there playing on right now just because of the match. How good feel at Elfie is. Yeah, yeah, defense is. They allowed two touchdowns to Kim Ward last week, both on runs. I actually think I'd be slightly more optimistic about the past catchers of case. Keenam plays over Tyson Baygent pro experience. It's going to get the ball out quickly because he's not mobile. Caleb Williams is like extremely mobile. Tyson Baygent's a good athlete. Case Keenam is a dad bottom enthusiast at this point of his career. Most like guys that an unbelievable run. I think if he wants to be a coach one day, he will be. He's got like, he's incredibly well respected, but cases are going to be run around the pocket and like doing a bunch of extending of plays. You say you just say Keenam over a agent. You would prefer. I would prefer for the purposes of guys like Roma, Dune Zayn, Coast and Lover. It's interesting. With their burden. Yeah, that's my feeling on it. It's a hornet's nest for either of them, whichever does start in place of Caleb Williams. It will be big for the arm wrestling community if Tyson Baygent starts.

13:28Do you guys know that it's dad? Oh, that's right. That's one of the greatest arm wrestlers in our country. Yes. So if Baygent starts, I don't know how many anecdotes we'll get about arm wrestling over the next four or five days. Best arm wrestling movie of all time. There's only one that I know of. I was going to say, wasn't on your sports movie list. Yeah, what is it? Over the top with Silvestre Stallone. He's a truck driver. He moves the thumb guys. Come on. Someone else in chat has got to be able to help me. We got to run on further to this. I'll do what I asked our movies. Last one really quickly. Field, I think you were in on Chuba Hubbard throughout this off season. And this is not a take a victory lap. But unfortunately, John the Brooks set for surgery. If you have Chuba Hubbard, you're going to have a free runway for probably at least six weeks, if not more. Yeah. And to be clear, this Jonathan Brooks injured reserve move is not because of injuries dealt with in the past. This is a core muscle injury. He's of course dealt with the knee injury in prior seasons. And I think it was a calf or a groin in the preseason. But let's be clear. My hesitation coming into the season was,

14:28are you going to overtax a player who has been injured for two straight seasons? Yeah. I felt the answer was clearly not. Nothing that the Pithers did not overtax John of them, Brooks. But if you want to extrapolate this to later on in the season when he's back, or even next year, I just think the most likely path for Jonathan Brooks to eventually becoming a featured back is for him to first show that he can be a part-time backfuerfels. You have to be out of the old man. Get him up for Chuba for the next. Maybe the whole season, truthfully. Yeah. You could just, I've said it yesterday, whatever day it was, I think he might just be this year's version of what James Conner was for all those years. I think you're right. I thought that was a good comp yesterday. Yes, squarely in the RB2 mix going forward. And next man up there is our old friend, AJ Dillon. AJ Dillon. That's fun. He's kind of bounced around the league. He hasn't had a big role since he was with the Packers. Big Clots. Former set. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So he's gotten a little bit of garbage time work in weeks one and two. But now he has a path to maybe 30% of the carries. So he's been surprised me in this off. And so not a guy you're racing to add right now,

15:29but a situation of mine are certainly an interesting insurance running back. Because they don't have anyone else. I mean, Trevor, Trevor Echan. Slash Echan is on IR. He'll be back in a couple of weeks. But they're pretty shorthanded at running. I think they signed someone to the practice squad. But I'll have to I think I may have seen that this morning. Like, all right. Let's talk about that. That's right. Yeah. Austin, you've got friends. Austin, Austin, Austin, Austin, Austin. Austin, Austin, Austin, Austin, Austin. I'm working on it. I'm working on it. I didn't see that. Every game day starts before the lights go up. Before the snap, before the roar, something's already at work. Cleaner, quieter, energy, production. Running where the game lives. Strong enough for fourth and goal, smart enough for what comes next. Powering game day, powering the fans and powering the communities that show up every Saturday. The same energy that runs your stadium, runs the schools, and the hospital in your neighborhood. Baddest performance powered by blue energy. Powering game days, powering communities. Many people's first serious relationship didn't start with a kiss.

16:30It started with a kickoff. Or perhaps it was love at first hike. But unfortunately, many of these football lovers don't live in the same city as their team, which is why Mariett Bonvoy has hotels close to nearly every NFL stadium, bringing fans closer to the teams they love with over 30 different hotel brands. So if you want to stay closer to your team, check in for game day with Mariett Bonvoy, the official sponsor of the NFL. We'll see you there. Every day is better with donuts. But who wants that sugar crash? Five-hour energy has two bakery classics with none of the guilt. You might want the raspberry flavor of a jelly donut five-hour energy shot. Or maybe the rich and silky vanilla combo of the Boston Cream donut five-hour energy shot. Either way, you're getting the guilty pleasure of a bakery with none of the guilt. New jelly donut and Boston cream donut five-hour energy shots available at fivehourenergy.com and on Amazon. All right, really quickly guys. Starts of the week from last week.

17:31Let's pay off what everybody looked like. Mike, why don't you give us what your lineup was? I think you didn't do too bad, my friend. No, I didn't. I was a second place in the week one, second place in week two like this one. That gradually started to rush the week. David Montgomery was a doubt. Garrett Will, I chased the chase the three touchdowns in week one. Can you ever do that? I should have known better. Garrett Wilson found the end zone. He did well. And then how about this guy? Travis Kelsey. Oh, they checked the perfect week to use Travis Kelsey. 25.1 points. But that was not good enough to be field eights. Yeah. So Mike scores 76.06 fantasy points. That's a darn good lineup there. Only one dud. Yeah, you look great. Those other three were fantastic. What about you, feel? I remember I led the proceedings last week with Brock party who certainly paid off with 28.8 fantasy points. The Andre Swift was my running back. Isaiah likely was my tight end. Swift and likely were both fine. But the big one was I pivoted. Remember this I said this on the show Friday. Oh, yeah. They flowers my original. I do we let him do this. My pivot was to Devonte Adams. If they was out, they was out.

18:33Devonte Adams was very much in 39 point. Adam fantasy points. So Adam said it could have had a great day. And I could have still beaten you. But no, he had to put up 40. Well, the more important part is like it's nice to win. Starts of the week. But you don't want to lose starts of the week. And guys, I should have just not used Devonte Adams because he outscored Daniels whole team. Yes, he did. You guys both could have just started. Or a quarterback. And you would have outscored my entire team. Justin Herbert fell flat second week in a row. Guys, it's awful. Devonte Williams only eight fantasy points. Mike Evans. Boy, it's weird. Brock Pertie did really great for field. Only eight point four fantasy points for me. And then there's no way. Goldston Lovelin does it again. One point three fantasy points. I have a total of 25.58. You guys had a combined three players that scored more than my entire team by themselves. I had two of those guys on my week one team and one. That's disgusting. Well, you should have to spend twice. The common thread right now is Justin Herbert and Goldston Lovelin are the ultimate let down players and starts of the week

19:35because back to back weeks they've been on starts of the week and back to back weeks the person who rostered them lost. So I'm glad the Daniel and I by rule cannot pick either of the players again. I don't know what's going to happen. Mike's going to pick one of those two guys very soon. And they're going to go off. That's going to be the week. But everyone loses. It's still on there. We need to cross that off. Oh, that one's got to stay on. All right. So as a reminder, I now have to spin the loser upon it. What's the new one? Is there anyone? I'm where I will gear. That's an easy one. That's a boy. I feel like kind of a nice. Here you go. Let's see. Yeah. Yeah. It's a little nicer. I actually don't mind these tattoos for the record. There's a couple on there that I'm a little bit weird. You I'm not I'm not loving the beer mile. I don't really love the smelling salts. Those are fine. Wow. Let's do it. All right. Here we go. In a three to one, I'm going to spin, spin, spin, spin, if you get spin again, it would be hilarious. As the wheel is spinning, we're slowing down on. Oh, you've got to be kidding me. Wax leg.

20:35I did not want that one. I just texted you guys about this. You're like, oh my gosh. Yes. That's anything with a wax leg. All right. Well, I'd say it's up in though. If anybody at this company would be down to have their leg wax, yes, and not make a stink about it, do we need to do it live on the show while we give analysis? I don't know about that. We take a video afterwards. And okay, that's what we do. You wouldn't meet it. You were like, no, I don't want to be in the room. You do it at home or something. Yeah. You did at home, I'll close my eyes. The person who literally got a tattoo on TV back in the day. That's you. Yeah. I feel like you are about as down to have your leg wax as anybody at ESP. Absolutely. Absolutely. Oh, good luck with that. I'm glad I didn't get it. Have you ever had a leg wax? Not a leg wax. No. Have you ever had any part of your body wax? Yes. Do you want to ask me a couple more questions? I think I'm good there, Daniel. I just wonder if like, maybe, well, thinking maybe like you have a tattoo on it, like, you know, if you had a chest tattoo, would you have a wax? Okay. They will, they'll get you shaved before you do all that just because of it. All right. Moving on. All right. Sanders check in guys, by the way.

21:36Let's do it. Yeah. Sanders check in. None of us got it this week. Unfortunately, we had a couple of decent options on the table, but none of us were able to hit. Damien Brown actually had a couple of targets. Didn't Damien Brown like have a near touch? It was very close. Yeah. Yeah. Roman Wilson not quite as involved as we thought. And Kyle Williams did our took over. Yeah, Kyle Williams again. We thought he'd get a little more run. Had a few targets, but again, didn't hit for that long touchdown. So we're stuck at 0.5% when we are picking again this week. My friends back on track. We also have what I'm calling the stink of the week. I forgot to solicit this presented by Daniel Dops week three week two started the week team. Yeah, presented by flatulence. I'm asking to see the best worst fantasy lineup each and every week. I'm going to do this after Monday night football. And for that, we present the stink of the week. Amazing. All right. And this week stink of the week. A lot of great options. Oh, sir. Obi Montana, Lenny Lou, 332 on Twitter.

22:39Let me give you this lineup. He lost by 112 points. This is an amazing, amazing outcome. Tell me when you hear the bad player on this roster. Because I don't see any of them. Justin Herbert, Sequan Barkley, Chase Brown, Malik neighbors, DeJ Moore, Dallas Goddard, Javonte Williams, Jadariah Price, and the thicker kicker, Harrison Mevis. All right. Without looking that line of head to have scored 120, right? I mean, that's so that's too good. Half PPR. And he scored 35.4 fantasy. That's brutal. He played against Devonte Adams, who scored 35.5 fantasy points. His opponent could have literally left his quarterback to running back. Other receiver, two flexed tight end and defense are, sorry, kicker unavailable. And he would have still won. You imagine that your your opponent messes up and they only start like one player that's like by weeks injuries. They only have one player. It's Devonte Adams. And they win.

23:39That's your whole lineup. That literally happened. I thought that was just how it's important to start the week. Literally. That's what we're talking about. Like it never happens. Is this your burner? You both did it to me. Yeah. That's brutal. That's a tough stink of the week. That's three. That's three players that didn't even hit one fantasy point. Yeah. That's that's that's really bad right there. That's really tough. That might be. So I think definitely like we went from non-PPR last week to half PPR this week. It might help our audience. If next week we find more stinks that are full PPR just because we talk about full PPR mostly here. But yeah, that's a tough like it's not like if you had given that full PPR scoring. This would have been a monster number. It would have been like 43. That's score 180 this week. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. He's got a good team if Jadarian price is healthy. And say what say what's a coin Berkeley he will be in good shape. All right. Let's talk about some of those guys actually speaking up. Players in the ranks three. A couple of rankings here. We're going to bring to you a full screen with some of the top rankings. Talk about a few of the guys. Starting with quarterback spot number one. Obviously Josh Allen. Lamar Jackson Brock Purti Patrick Mahomes at four

24:42and then Jalen Hertz. That's the top five six through 10. Tyler Schuck at six. Back press got at seven. Trevor May at Trevor Lawrence at eight. Drake May is falling all the way to nine and Jordan love right now at 10. May is a slow start. He's not Drake. Drake May. Many more. You just say you just bad. It's not so good. Do you guys do you both because these are consensus rankings. Do you both have Drake May inside the top 10? I do. Yeah. I believe I'm in nine. Very. Where he is. I believe I have him at 10 as thank you. We'll get in. Yeah. We're talking about him here right now. Well, then why don't we talk about him right now? All right. Yeah. That was my pick for the quarterbacks of the week here on Drake May. Two games. So sample sizes are small for all of these players. Finding good or bad things can be hard to come by depending on how those first two weeks went. Not with this. Let me let me give you the things that have gone well so far for Drake May. As we are thinking about his prospects for week three. Okay. And next. Yeah. Okay. He is the fifth most rushing attempts amongst quarterbacks. Like we know that Drake May is a very mobile court.

25:43He's a is an elite athlete and he was nearly the MVP last year. He's a very, very good quarterback. Right. If you're looking for silver linings, he also faced two legitimately good defenses through two weeks. And in large part because they played against Drake May, the sea hawks and the Steelers have allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. Again, they're just two weeks in large part because they play Drake May. But my gut's talking to me on this one though. I just something about the way this kid is wired and what we saw last, I mean, me going out on a limb, imagine that Drake May can bounce back. This kid's an absolute stud. I think he's hearing the noise. This Jacksonville defense is good. I don't think it's as good as Seattle's for sure. I don't think it's as good as Pittsburgh's either. I think Drake May bounces back this week. This is not a must win for the Patriots. It's only week three. But for a team that plays Buffalo next week after giving away week one when they should have won that game in Seattle, this feels like a very consequential game for the Patriots in Jacksonville.

26:44Even without AJ Brown, I think Drake May has his best game by a large margin week three. As someone who has Drake May on a lot of squads, it is a must win because I started O and two in part because of him. He must be a see win. Yes, it is a must win for me. I think he bounces back. I still have him as a starter as well. You've got him even higher than us, Mike. Yeah, I'm actually at seven. I thought I was a hair lower. But again, there's so many quarterbacks in that range. It makes sense that I wouldn't remember. He's seven eight or nine. Yeah, look, under including the playoffs last year under 18 fantasy points in seven straight. But again, context matters. They played Pittsburgh. Seattle twice Denver Houston and the chargers during that run. I mean, it's been a brutal stretch of defenses for him. Jacksonville has faced so far. Deshaun Watson and Bonix, they're allowing 9.3 yards per pass attempts at second highest in the NFL. So perhaps there's room for May to get going through the air. And again, he can make value with his good call here is legs. I don't even think it's a good call. I mean, we had him like, you top three or four quarterback, right? We downgrade him because of the matchups and he appropriately followed suit and struggled against two good defenses.

27:45Now it's more of a neutral or plus matchup. He should bounce back if he doesn't then we can panic a little bit because something's wrong. You got to know better than to talk to Clay Eye about a gut called fields like that. That's just silly. That's just silly. Who's a quarterback the week, Daniel? My quarterback this week is Patrick Freakin Mahomes. I believe that is his middle name. I believe it is. Guys, Patrick Mahomes has been unbelievable actually to start. Been amazing. First two weeks have been great. 21.6 fantasy points in week one, 28.9 in a week two. And then he gets the dolphins in week three six total touchdowns for Patrick Mahomes through the first two weeks. Dolphins have also allowed six total touchdowns to quarterbacks through the first two weeks of the season. This is a great situation that he set up for an easy must start in this one. The projection though, Mike, I wanted to ask you about this. It like feels low to me 19.6 fantasy points. I think part of that has to be and tell me if I'm wrong with this narrative. There's got to be a little bit of concern that they just like get up by so much that there's not much passing in the second half. I mean, they do all their damage. You think it's going to be a blowout, but the other side of like that blowout is what

28:48if KW three has three rushing touchdowns and Patrick Mahomes has 185 passing yards and one passing touchdown. Yeah. I mean, that's definitely a part of the formula is game script. Of course. And we do expect them to win this game. Handily, you know, Ken Walker's projected as RB two because we expect him to be running the football a lot. So we do. They are. They were very run heavy in week one, but as I thought what happened as I talked about throughout the offseason, they shifted right back to throwing the ball last week because Andy Reed loves to throw the football. That does help Mahomes a little bit, but yeah, I think that, you know, again, Miami's a lot of the most fantasy points are running back to seventh, most of quarterbacks. I mean, you should be able to get in the ball again. Yeah. For sure. And that could limit him a little bit. But again, he's QB five. That's the highest we've had him so far. He's going for me to be clear. Yes. I mean, I mean, the projection is QB five. And of my ranking is QB two. You guys both have a miss QB five. I have a league in which I have both Drake May and Patrick Mahomes and I'm starting Patrick Mahomes obviously. I told you guys, that was my dilemma coming in. Yes. One.

29:49I was like, money where my mouth is Mahomes over Drake May. I did it last week as well. I'm doing it this week and it's not because of them. Like, it's not just because of the matchup, right? Like right now, my confidence index in Patrick Mahomes is on par. Pretty high. It's probably higher than my confidence index with Drake May, which is just classic because in this league that I have Drake May, it's this salary cap keeper league and players can be extended after their second year. And I am telling you that every and I'm, I don't think I'm exaggerating here every time I've extended a player, which you're only extending guys that you think are a good and be their salary increases pretty significantly when you do extend them. It's like they're not only good, but they're good values. I draft a Drake May for a dollar and a $200 budget. So I extended him for two years to get it up to $11 for each of the two subsequent art for the third year, fourth year and fifth year. And I told the guys, I was like, given my history in this league, I'm telling you the Drake May is going to be playing in the XFL next year. Like it just the way it works. And of course, the first two weeks Drake May has been total and that league has a ton of

30:51Patriots fans in it. So they are mostly blaming me. Yeah, that's not, unfortunately, it's definitely my fault. This game's in good. No, you go. You go. I just want to say the game is in Miami. I just wanted to check the weather because sometimes there's like trap games at Miami early in the season when it's super 87, partly cloudy, a little rain. So nothing to make, nothing to worry about. Let's be honest, Mike wanted to check the weather in Miami to see if he could get down the real quick. We can't. I was thinking I'd take the pot off Friday and fly down. That's it. Mike, you know who hasn't disappointed so far. I'm glad you guys are finally seeing some of the things that I was trying to tell everyone about this off season. You're right about him. Tyler Schock has looked good so far through the first two weeks and it's only two weeks. You're here to phrase that you were right about him about him. Yes, only one. I'll give you him. I'll give you that guy. No, yeah, he's been, look, Red Hot fantasy, his fantasy outplay, his last four games, tracing back to last season, 21.9, 21.8, 23.2, 22.4, two best games have come this season as well. And actually, if you go back even further, the four games before that, he had 17 plus

31:52and all of them. So he said 17 plus fantasy points in eight consecutive games. Right now, I know this is inflated by what happened in week one with the overtime game, but Lees, Deanna fell in completions in passing yards. The passing volume as expected came back to earth last year. Efficiency was still the same. Remember I was saying he was 7.3 yards per 10 last year, 7.3 and week one, 7.4 last week. So progress, yep, but basically the same. But he did start running again last week, which is a huge development, nine for 23 and a touchdown. They play the Raiders this week. They've actually been better than expected. They slowed down Justin Herbert and Malik Willis, but they've also faced seven of that. They've faced a seventh fewest pass attempts. So the Raiders saying that they have been better than expected is also like saying the chargers clearly haven't been as good as expected. And then you played Malik Willis in the dolphins. Like Justin Herbert may have slowed Justin Herbert down as much as the Raiders did. Yeah, no, no, really good test for Tyler Schuck in two weeks because which is against the Vikings. Because there's a part of me that I have Schuck ranked sixth.

32:53So I'm right there with you guys. I'm in line for this week. If I were going to make the argument against Tyler Schuck going forward, it would be, well, he kind of feasts it on bad competition down the stretch last year. And this year he's been aided by the fact that his team has been so bad in the first half that the GameScript has been so fantasy friendly that it'd be nice to see him a against like not a terrible team and be like do it efficiently and do it for 60 full minutes as opposed to 30 minutes. But then you look at their schedule and you're like, I don't know, there are a lot of teams that are going to move the football against the way the Raiders this week, the Falcons next week, not scared there. Obviously, the Vikings I mentioned is scary in two weeks. Giants, Steelers, that game is in Paris. That would be tough. Browns, TBD, Panthers, Bears, Bengals, Packers, Panthers, Bucks, like Cardinals, Falcons. It's very little. That's very stressful. So as much as I'd like to see him just like string it together against good teams, like

33:54that may matter next year, but it may not matter this year. By the way, if we were going to list his hardest games of the year at Baltimore, we too would have been on that list and he just did great. So I mean, but again, like he did great when they were getting smoked in the first half. I don't think their defense is going to be substantially better going forward though. I mean, my point is like, I think that would be even more convinced that this is like nothing to worry about whatsoever. If he had come out and this was a game that they ended up winning by a touchdown, but they were never down 17 points. Sure. I think they're too things to me. And then I'll move on from Tyler Shuck one. I think like his connection with his receivers looks legit. Like him and Chris Olavek, Chris Olavek just looks unbelievable. He'll be just. He's getting Jordan Tyson back and maybe a mountain. And Bomba Lay has looked really good as well in that offense. And I really do think that. Nope. I just left my head. Running backs. Yep. That happened to you. I feel like the other week you happen to happen. It's all the time. Yeah. Let's dive in. Welcome to beat. I don't think I'm going to do.

34:55Wow. And you think of it. All right. All right. Let's talk about some running backs. My one or stock watch later. So let's get to it. Jimi Gibbs at one Kenneth Walker, the third at two Christian McCaffrey, B. John Robinson, Jonathan Taylor, Derek Henry, Ashden Gentian James Cook. Those were the top eight chase Brown, Breeze Hall, Seikwang Barkley, Devon H. Han, O'Mari and Hampton, Javonte Williams, Bucky Irving and Cam Skataboo. Boo. That's the top 16 there of running back so far this week. And then 17, 18 and 19 Chuba Hubbard, Deandre Swift, Aaron Jones and Kyron Williams. Guys, can I talk to you about Deandre Swift a little bit? Go for it. Hit us. I guy. I don't think that I did not see him in the top 20. Maybe I messed up there. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, board bet action. Deandre Swift, 32.4 fantasy points in week one. And then last week, obviously the Bears and Vikings game was really tough, 12.9 fantasy points. He's the only thing that actually looked good. The thing that I'm hanging my hat on and the reason why he's still a starter when all of the other bears don't give me that same confidence. He had 19 touches in both of the games.

35:56Daniel, it could have so easily been 21 fantasy points for Deandre Swift. Yes. He's humbled on the one yard on the one. He puts that in. He gets an additional 8.1 fantasy points. Scored less points this week, but actually played more snaps this week. It's a 60, 40 snaps play right now between him and Kyle Menungai, but he has gotten literally all of the goal line work. He is the only one being used at the goal line. He's also their better pass catcher. So even though this is a really tough matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, last two running backs to play them, they're not, you know, you know, burners, JCM scored 12.6, Tony Pollard scored 7.5 with the running back or with the quarterback situation and the, you know, what the bears are going to be at. We've all just like lowered Deandre Swift to more of a low end RB two adjusting our expectations. Unfortunately against Mike's difficult defense. It the same way. Mike, who's your guy? Minus Quinchon, Judkins. I'm thinking this is the week for him to make a leap forward after a slow start for sure. Obviously a terrible start so far this season. He now actually hasn't cleared 10.1 fantasy points in five straight games going back to last

36:57season. Five targets last week. He's played almost 70% of the snaps this season. And now they, after two road games, they come back home and they face Carolina. They've allowed a leaky 406 yards to running backs through two games. And I know Chicago crushed a week one, but don't forget they allowed 148 yards to LA and his running backs last week as well. I think Judkins, this is the week. If it doesn't happen this week, guys, it's panic time. Yep. I would agree on that, Mike. I, this Cleveland team, they proved a lot of people is in this guy wrong last week. We'll see whether this offense might just get to like, even if it's below average, that would be well above what I thought it was going to be, especially after what we saw in week one. I thought we were talking about a bottom three offense in the NFL. Yeah. And they can become the 23rd offense in the NFL. That is good enough for Quinshund Judd, Kansas, he has fantasy value. They have the piece. It's the online that really scares me. They have to skill guys for sure. They just bring it all together. I got to see it from more than one week from Deshaun. I agree. Yeah, I agree. The most interesting running back, say again, thank you to therapy field.

37:58It's interesting running back name on the list to Von Hn. We have a gigantic gap in our rankings here. Mike is up at RBA. I'm up at, I'm up at RB 15, not quite in the middle, but close to the middle of where Daniel is at RB 20. Yeah. Do the good in the bad here for to Von Hn, like we did with Drake May, the good for Hn. If I told you a player was second to running back, snap percentage, seventh and running back receptions, fourth and running back target share. You'd like all that, right? Yeah. The bad is that he's getting a lot of volume, but not getting. He's not very efficient right now. He's 58th and fantasy points per touch amongst running backs. Yeah. And 42nd in his percentage of runs gaining 10 plus yards, which as Liz noted yesterday, has been one of the strengths of Hn's game is explosive runs are part of what he brings to the table. I'm lower than Mike, obviously, higher than Daniel, but I am definitely worried that this game against Kansas City is a blowout, which I think there's a chance, despite what his snap percentage shows in the first two weeks, that if this is an absolute blowout, that the dolphins who are thinking about the future in general are going to start to pull the

39:02court here on Devon Hn in the third and fourth quarters of games. Well, say they didn't last week. I mean, that's why I'm so high. That's exactly exactly what we wanted them to do in week one, and we criticized them for not doing. They did in week two. I mean, they just kept giving it to him over and over and over. And he got to what 100 yards or he was right around a hundred yards in that game. And it just takes one. I mean, if he does that again and has one big play, where finally starts scoring, even if he scores six touchdowns this year or something, like he's going to, he's going to hang in there with this volume plus those touchdowns. Like he's going to be okay. Potential board bet between you two. You will not score six touchdowns this year. Oh, I was taken like RB eight versus RB 20 for this week's with the difference RB 14. I'm happy to be touchdown based. Whatever you want. Also, he won't score six touchdowns this season. I will happily take that board bet. That's two separate board bets. Yes. Okay. So we have two separate board bets. One for this week. You're saying RB 14 or worse, Devon, 14 or better. Devon H. Ann will finish as RB 14 or worse in week three. Van H. Ann will finish better than 14. No, I used to 14. They're worse. You say 14.

40:02They're better and we can tie if it's RB field gets 14. 14. They're better here in week three. What are the board? Also, I'm going to do this because I really want to do it. I say Devon H. Ann unfortunately does not score six touchdowns in 2020. I think Devon H. Ann will score six touchdowns here in 2026. What are the board? Do play it to the playoffs count too. What? Yes, they do. Almost said no. I thought about that question. I got you. That was so good. Thank you, Michael. As you know, managing maintenance, repair and operations is never easy.

We are random rankings. All right, Jackson Smith and Jigba. I'm on rod. Jamar Chase Pukinakua. If he plays Justin Jefferson, Chris Olave, Citi Lamont, Devonte Smith at the top eight Z-Flowers, Parker Washington, Girit Wilson, Drake Wolland, Malik neighbors, Chris Jim Watson, Tedderon McMillan, and Nico Collins, top 16. And then Jalen Cocher, George Pickens, Jalen Waddle and Lad Makonky, Roundout, the top 20. Cocher and Parker shooting up the board. Here is where they are. Guys, I told you about a Tyler Schuck field. Why don't you tell me about his past catcher? Yeah, let's talk about Chris Olave, who this could be very quick, because I just want us to think about introducing him into that elite tier of wider. I'm with you. It's like we're not talking about him in the same territory as Pukin, Jamar Chase, and guys and being like, really? No, like, yes. So far he's fourth in fantasy points for game amongst wide receivers, second and routes,

43:04targets and catches, third and receiving yards. This goes back to last year as well. He had this remarkable breakout season, and I know they've had very favorable game scripts. We talked about in the Tyler Schuck conversation. But if you just watch the player, it just feels like he's due for a highlight, real play or two per game. Yeah. What an amazing player he is. What a great story of a guy staying healthy and producing at the level that, remember, the Saints made this very bold and audacious trade way back in the day when they acquired Chris Olave, where they gave up an extra first to fill it out. Yeah, which Philly turned into like nine good things because they're the Eagles. And the crystal lava big bet they made has now paid off. He's just an awesome player. He is a top seven wide receiver in all of our ranks. He's awesome. Yeah. He is. He's trending up. My guy is trending the wrong way. Fellas Rashid. I can tell you the week one. Yeah. Two for 19 in a touchdown and week one, four for 83 on six targets and week two that's progress. Although about half of those yards came on like the end of the second quarter or it was like a garbage time. He's free to play. So that was a little concerning target.

44:05Church 12% this year was 28% over the last two years. So a lot of red flags here. The good news is the snap share, the route participation or career highs for him. So hopefully that will turn into more reliance, but it has not been there so far. The reason we're going to keep them in our line up this week is the match. I'm a five touchdowns allowed through the air despite facing the third fewest pass attempt. So it is a good spot. But again, much like with Judkins, if it doesn't happen this week, we're going to have to have another conversation. The only if I'm trying to find a justification for why it's been slow to start how he can get better is if that knee injury is something that he is healthy enough to play through, but he's kind of a ramp up guy throughout the year. Sure. But otherwise, yeah, it's a dire. When he gets the ball, he looks good. Like to me, he looks good. I feel like he's not limited. He's running well, but it's just they're not dialing a place for him. That's been the problem so far. In a dramatic shift. That was the anti-Roschy Rice case was maybe they're going to run the football a thousand times the game. So just something to keep in mind. Guys, I did the thing that Mike did. I actually picked a wide receiver that's outside of the top 20 on this list.

45:07You didn't see the name. A mecca, a buka on it. He is not a top 20 wide receiver. Right now hasn't busted in either of the first two weeks, but he also hasn't lived up to the expectation of the wide receiver one without Mike Evans. 11.3 fantasy points again, since the end week one, 10.3 in week two. You know who leads this team in targets? K dot headhirst. Bucket. It's a four. It's four guys have 10 or 11. Bucket year. A mecca, a buka does lead this team in target with 11. As well as bucket year. Being with 11 and then what Ted Hurston, K dot and have 10 as well as K dot and with 11. Isn't that a problem that known volume king K dot has as many targets as wide receiver one, a mecca, a buka through the first two weeks of the season. I mean, the bus got to be on the short list for most disappointed teams in the league. They are as special. Chargers are obviously the number one. Yeah, they shot a big game too. They were talking a little. It was supposed to be to chip on bigger shoulders, right? That was going to be a thing and we thought he was going to take a step in. Now this week, unfortunately gets the Brian Flores Vikings. We are moving all of the bucks down because I just wanted to mention it because normally

46:07we we're hoping to see something. I think this is another week that it's probably going to be another struggle for. I'll say this. I think he'll be fine. Let's do some tight ends really quickly here. My friends tight ends for the top 10. Tramack bright at one Brock Boer. It's Dalton, K. Travis Kelsey and George Kittle. It's the top five six through 10. We've got dramatic pause. Sam Laporta, Tyler Warren, Isaiah, likely, Colson, Loveland and Tucker craft guys. It is a tough season to be a Travis Kelsey is washed guy. He is not washed. Yeah. 10.1 fantasy points in week one. Mostly came on one big play, but then 21 point 25.1 here in week two gets the dolphins. Even though we're a little more out on Rashi writes, we are more in on Travis Kelsey this week. He's an easy auto start for us at tight ends. And forget it. Let's just own it. We should have talked about him plenty more in the pre we should have like we didn't make anti cases for Travis Kelsey. We just kind of said like, yeah, what have you find? We focused on Rashi rice and Ken Walker the third and the he's been more than fine. He's been awesome. The clock has turned back. Yeah.

47:07About a minus Tucker craft a big boost last week in snaps and routes went. I actually played 100% of the packer snaps, but fell from six targets to three targets. 65 yards of 15 yards nine and a fantasy points to three and a fantasy points. It was a big dud from him, but Jaden Reed is now out. They're going to have to run this offense through Watson golden and Jaden Reed, especially with no running game. And Atlanta's already got three touchdowns to tight end. So Tucker craft despite the dud still hanging in that tight end one conversation. A big game tomorrow night for them playing at home against Atlanta Thursday night football. They got to look not just when they got to look the part tomorrow for me to feel like Greenback and really compete in this division with what I think will be Minnesota and Detroit and Chicago all there. The wider, excuse me, the tight end 17 in terms of routes per game is Isaiah likely. But when he's on the field, he's running around. He's getting the football is the top three and fantasy points catches yards, targets and target share. I know the quarterback is new this week. It's James Winston is opposed to Jackson Dart, but he had nine targets did Isaiah likely from James Winston of his 27 passing attempts.

48:10This past Monday nights with Malik neighbors, whether it's still getting up to speed with the knee injury or the one with that shoulder injury on Monday night, he's not quite himself. It seems and there's really nobody else, right? Darnell Mooney Malachi fields, the running backs are not really prominently involved in the passing game. I think Isaiah likely is just here to stay as a top 10 tight end weekend and week. So how many targets you think he gets this week? I'll go with eight wrong answer, likely nine. Oh, right there. Right there for you. Right there. The tattoo's impact your ability to process stuff. I'm disappointed in this, but it is. Let's dive into the mail bag really quickly before we move on with the show, want to pay off a couple of questions. Oh, no. This is from Mama Dot. She knows I have to wax a leg. She is bummed for me. Oh, Daniel, I am so sorry. It's all right, Mama. I'll be real smooth like a surfboard. What? Thank you. Jesse, hold the kid. The next piece actually works for feet. Fine, I'll keep it. I like it. It's for what it's worth. I do like it field.

49:11Hey, I got a text from our producer, Addison Walton this morning, guys. I want to ask you this quick question. Haven't heard from a local friend in news hits me with this question today. Long time listener, first time caller, a player in my league got frustrated and dropped Holston, Loveland last night. What percentage of your fab would you spend to pick him up in a 10 team PPR league if you have anyone that overreacted, whether it was Loveland or anyone like this happens sometimes, right? Oh, definitely. Yeah. I think what's tricky about this one is much like, so Pukin' N' Kuhu was knocked out of a lot of knockout leagues, right? But I was like, do I bid a little less because people might be like, hey, you might not play this week and he was out last week. So I might not have to spend as much. It's kind of like that with Loveland too. You might not have to be super aggressive because so many people are scared away. On the other hand, it just takes one person. 30% was my, yeah, that's where my head's going too. I think that's a good number. Now, I also want to, I always want to have some, some money in the kitty. When you say 30% are you a, if you have a hundred dollar budget and you say 30% would you

50:13just be about 30 or would you put, you're not a put 31 to not be on the even thing? I mean, that is like a serious strategy. No, it's true because people do tend to think in round numbers. Yes. If you want to put 31, so then should we do 32? No, no, no, okay, all right, all right, all right. You know what? You're kicked out. Any more questions? We have questions from Chatt. All right, let's keep on moving. Let's keep moving in. I'll go more later on in the show. We're going to do a stock check on the top 10 and ADP stock up and stock down. We kind of did this a little bit yesterday with Liz. Yeah. I wanted to do the top. Sometimes we just breeze past the absolute superstars and don't talk about them at all. They don't really need to be talked about, but I thought it'd be interesting to look at the top 10 players based off their preseason or their final preseason ADP. And if you were to give them a quick, it doesn't have to be this, you know, deep dive. Stock up, stock down or stock neutral. How would you assess them? So one through five, Jermior Gibbs, B. Sean Robinson, Jermar Chase, Pukin, Nuku, Jonathan Taylor, Jackson Smith and Jigba, Krish McAfry, Almond Ross, St. Brown, James Cook, and also CD Lamb.

51:14So this is not exactly redrafting the top 10, but just give you a sense of it. We can start with Jermior Gibbs. And I think you can, even at pick one, you can still, I think stock up would be in play. He says stock up. So yeah, he was my, I had him as the first overall pick. He was first on my overall board. But if I was drafting today, I would take him zero with. Yeah. Yeah. Now I think stock up for Jermior Gibbs only because the question was him versus say, uh, B. Sean Robinson. Yeah. And he said two great weeks. B. Sean had a dud week last week. And their volume is real. Like Dan Campbell was not shy about giving him the ball. Um, that's much as yeah. I don't know if they'll make, he'll make it 18 weeks like that. But for now, yes, stock up. Yeah. Him and Kenneth Walker are the two running backs that we'll see if they can sustain what they're doing so far workload. Great. And I feel about B. Sean though, knowing that the first two weeks have been difficult with the quarterback stock neutral. Because he was amazing in week one and he gets Michael Panic Jr. back starting this Thursday night. So I'm stock neutral. I think if we did this again, he would still go to agreed. I'm with you on that. I don't think I would change that. Jamar Chase hasn't looked too bad. I mean, he did in week one last week though, it looked like classic Jamar Chase.

52:16Would that change for you? Yeah. I think this is interesting. I think at worst, I think stock neutral is appropriate. You agree? You could make the case that he could be stocked down because there is a wide receiver that if we read it today might go higher than Jamar Chase. But I think stock neutral is where I land because it's a long season. The target share is still going to be incredible. He's an amazing talent. And he was awesome. And what might be the worst matchup will have all season this past weekend? Agreed. Is Pukinakua just an obvious stock down because how well the other wide receivers have done in the beginning of the first round? Yeah. I would say down slightly. That's why I would go. It's borderline neutral because it becomes back healthy this week. He'll be fine. He was fine in week one, even though it was a very tough situation for that offense. I still think he'll pay off his ADP. So it's tough to say down, but it's down slightly. Right. It's slightly down because even if he does return this week, the thought process coming into the year was like, yeah, Pukinakua can afford to miss a game or two and just be better than every other wide receiver in the game. We'll talk about JS 10 minutes. But just because of what JS N is doing, that might have changed the calculus a little

53:19bit. And by the way, how do you play the other night? He would have had a decent chunk of those Devont Adams for a few points as well. But it was good to see that offense play at a high level. And if that continues, Pukin will be fine. All right. The first not tier one running back in Jonathan Taylor, guys. I think I feel like he's kind of stock neutral to be honest in this offense because I don't love the passing game. Daniel Jones doesn't do it for me. We haven't seen a lot. I mean, I feel like Tyler Warren has not delivered the way that we had hoped. And so by two touchdowns, to me, it's like the one thing that does keep working in this offense and isn't going to change is JT. So I haven't seen enough to move him like stock down because they're going to keep giving him the ball. But it's not a stock up situation. Neutral for me. Neutral is probably where it lands. Jackson's within Jagdhava pro up one dot if you told me not one dot O one because I was still taking your gifts. But like if you told me you wanted to take him one dot O one right now with the safety of who he is and his offense and his his upside. Yeah. He's crazy. I mean, in a low volume passing offense.

54:19Yes. With a backup quarterback for all, but I think one passive attempts of hard this season. It's been unbelievable. He's 44% target. Cheryl do that for you. Everything is funneled through him and how many other offenses do we have that like basically everything for our game is funneled through kind of that one guy. Jadari price the running backs. Like there's not like a clear cut guy. There is no tight end one really. There is no other wide receiver. This is exactly what you want of fantasy. Yeah. And no one could cover him. Doesn't like it. Doesn't send us off to the right. Like I think there's a relatively decent chance he finishes as a best wide receiver three. Not rolling out wide receiver one or two, but for those that may be coming into the season, we're like, you know, I like to see it again before I really throw him into the category of Jamar chase. Here you go. I think we can put that argument to bed for now. What about CMC guys? I'd say stock neutral here. Yeah. I would agree neutral. We might have been leaning down after a week one, but after week two, he's right back doing CMC things because I think where it gets interesting for CMC. And where he could surge back up is they've had two non competitive games.

55:21Yes. And they're going to eventually play more competitive games. I know they played the Rams a week one, non competitive version of the Rams. And I just don't think that Kyle Shanian can help himself. And in those moments, I think it'll be holy cow Christian McCaffrey had 18 carries and 11 targets. Yeah. At the end of the day, he's still their franchise player. Like he's going to be they're going to run the offense. They're like they always do. You feel differently because I know you obviously the anti CMC guy, you're stock neutral. I would be stock neutral if I had drafted CMC because the reason why I didn't is because I don't think he will last the entirety of the season. But if I'm looking at fantasy as a one week game, I think that CMC has been neutral at the running back spot. Yes. I'm on Ross St. Brown. Fuck up. What a legend. He's just he is as steady as it gets a great floor. I don't know. The reality is like when we're talking about tier one wide receivers going into next year, he's going to include at least four of them, which will be Jamar, Puka, Jackson Smith and Jigba and on Amman Ra. Yeah. I say neutral just because I think he's about where he was drafted is where he belongs right now on the board.

56:21But he's fantastic to your point. Yeah. Wide receiver. I think I texted you guys about this when we were ranking the other day. Yeah. It starts out great. Yeah. It's it's it's wide receiver. We have to talk about this at some point. It's pretty gross right now after the lot is deep. Is it felt like? I love Amman Ra and JSN because they kind of gave me the same vibe as guys. Like they're not like, you know, field stretchers in the same way. They not that they can't, but like, you know, a Jamar chase or a Puka Nuku. I think I have that long sentence now. Last week. But he's I would say that what the thing that I think about the two of them that is really cool is that like they are about as low maintenance as it gets for wide receivers. They are just like painstakingly kind people. Yep. There's something about guys with hyphens in their names, right? Jackson Smith and Jigba. I'm on our Saint Brown Nick Westbrook. I can't. That's right. Like that, you know, Lester Gladwell. A good one. You're right. Yes. I was trying to think of an Alan Lazard name and I couldn't go over the good middle name for Alan Lazard the goat. Yes, that's fair. How about the last one? Last two here. James Cook. neutral.

57:22Yeah, James Cook. Week one was against Houston. It was a tough match up, right? And honestly, you know, Josh Allen's told us show a week one. I think he would go in the first round right now because all these other names, including guys that would jump into the top 10, but not enough to say down. The James Cook pop-offs coming really soon. We're due for a 22 carry, 152 yard two touchdown game very soon. If he's not a first rounder, he's a high end second rounder. Exactly, right? That's right. There just might have so long since the place. And then CDLAM. How do you guys feel about CDLAM? Stock up because through two games, the CDLAM show and the George Pickens show is currently off broadcast, right? Yeah. It's not great. And he's still an amazing talent. He'll be fine. He'll be fine. But George Pickens has been 10 or fewer points in first two games. Will he, can I just throw this out there? Just like this is the little devil sitting on my shoulder. Like I know he'll be fine, but also he's playing on a tag that he doesn't want to play on. He doesn't have a contract for next year. Well, the scare is if he like gets a hamstring that gets tight. And when you say hamstring, do you mean hamstring that gets tight or an or a hamstring? I guess both. Yeah.

58:23Like both could be like his targets have been there though. I'm not worried about Pickens. Okay. I think I'll be okay. I mean, it's only two points. It's a pointy, but not worried to be a better way. Yeah, it's a pointy, exactly. It's a pointy, but his big game's coming to. Practicing that for later in life, huh? I'm disappointed, girls. All right. I'm not worried. Why don't you worry? They're four, two, no, no, no. To me. Oh, okay, okay, okay. I'm not mad. I'm disappointed. Yeah. Quick question. Who's in your top 10 now that wasn't before? I think there's one name that's obvious. He did. He did walk through. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, I'd be in the middle of the first round, but otherwise I think that's about it for now. Usually only one on one, I was looking at this. The only one that would move into the first round from you right now. Yeah. Definitely, yes. Yeah. I think that's the part of this really quickly, and then we'll do our last thing. Anyone else that you just have, like, think as a huge riser or faller that you want to talk about, I know we only did the top 10. Anyone else that stands out? Big risers or fallers that would creep into the top 10. No. I think a lavas, the one that's probably closest to getting other than KW. So I redid, like, my top nine just to do for this exercise. I had nine, and then the 10th, I was stuck.

59:23I was cooked. Gentie, Henry, H&M, Lam, Jefferson, a lavas. Like, it has a lot of guys to pick at that one to turn. The two island positions, and I'm not sure we would do it differently, but like we're saying, wait on quarterback, maybe you should have just drafted a challenge. Alan, maybe he's really good. Long season ahead there, because you can, like, you know, we have seen some really, you know, Patrick Maholmes would be the argument against, right? Yeah. Yeah. The guy was the 14th ranked quarterback in ADP, and he's quarterback one, which you, same with Tremac Bride. You like a Tremac Bride has clearly been the best out of all of the ones, but if you wanted to say, hey, you could have gotten Dalton Kincaid or I say, likely or somewhere else lately, strategy was way so far, so far. But, you know, we'll see Brock Bowers probably back in week three. We'll see what that looks like. All right. We got two questions from our mailbag here really quickly. This one comes from Christopher Ruas. Are we trusting Drake London this week? Guys, trust is a strong word, but I am starting Drake London this week. Yeah. I agree. And by the way, we'll talk about this game in greater depth tomorrow as we will. And I football game, but the numbers with Michael Penex Jr. have been excellent for Drake London. Agreed. This is not a, like, two of there's still a little bit of a wait and see. It's definitely better than Cooper Rush, like Michael Penex Jr. plus Drake London equals

1:00:25a lot of fantasy points. Agreed. And here from our chat, this one comes from Andy Cohen. Is it time to trade Hampton in case the chargers continue to stink? Is this the Andy Cohen? I don't think that you would be getting. I was going to say that. Like he, at least he's coming off like a 17 point out in right? You like that. But I don't, it doesn't, the vibes aren't great. I don't think you're getting, you're not selling high on a guy. You sound a key in Mitchell. I want to see more passing down work, but he scored. He's getting all the carries. He's very talented young player. They're at like, I think they're, I know that schedule is hard, but they have to play better than this. Yeah, after, right? Agreed. It can't be. It's going to be very interesting. They're going to have, eventually they'll have a good offensive game, maybe not multiple, but, uh, and we're going to be like, here we go. Time to course. Correct. We're back. I love the chats hanging out with us all day. By the way, I appreciate all of the love for over the top. I should have brought that as my sports movie last time when we got our random ranking. You guys need to watch it. If you haven't seen that, Sebastian's to learn movie. Go watch the speaking of random rankings. Yeah, let's talk about some best late night eats as our random rankings in chat. Please let us know where your favorite place is to eat late at night.

1:01:28Maybe you've had a couple of adult beverages. Maybe you're just up late with your friends hanging out. You want to get some food? Yeah. Whoever came up with this is younger than us because I don't do this like I used to. This is hard. It's different in college. In college we definitely did. Yes. Definitely. Okay. So then let me ask you this question. When you're doing this, was this a list of nostalgia or a list of like right now with your 40 year old body? I did more nostalgia. More nostalgia. You did current? I did current. So we did a little differently. I love it. Love it. All right. We're going to start off then. Yeah. Are we doing three two? Yeah. We'll do it all three. Okay. So my three is pretty generic. If I happen to be out late and I'm whatever just out having a night, it'd be like wings and fries at a bar. You know, like at the bar. That's about the bar wings and fries like that. The bar. Yeah. Not there. Rare, but that's that's a good. That's what I like to go to. Mine is late night sitting at home. I don't want to do a lot. Yeah. I want to be able to just have something that's easy. So you know what I do? Pop open the freezer. The oven on preheat and I throw in a red baron pizza. Oh smart man right there.

1:02:28That's right. Well done. Peter into the crowd. There we go. Frozen pizza always hits late at night and it's super simple. You don't have to do anything. You just put it in the button. Frozen pizza always hit. I literally made it joke the other day via text about I'm trying to score free red baron pizzas from field. But that's it. That's it. That's it. What I can do about that. Number three for me. Late night diner. Yep. I went with Denny's just because it's the one that's available to most people. But you get a jump on breakfast. Yes. You get a breakfast sandwich and of course as you know, everybody knows this. It's like this is science. The grease and the breakfast sandwich helps cure the hangover before it starts. Everybody knows that. I'm thinking I'm talking a gigantic bacon, egg and cheese. Preferably a little extra greasy. Yeah. And hammer that thing with a hash brown and you're basically cured. I love it. I'm in on that. Yeah. What are there like because it's basically any breakfast late night breakfast joint. I know you picked one. Yes. I went to college locally. I went to college at Wesleyan and it's about 20 minutes from here. We had a place called Orricks diner.

1:03:29Great spot. But there was a 24 or seven diner as well. It's no longer an operation, but he used to go there a lot. Yeah. I love those local 24 or seven diners that I mean, it's basically like the waffle house kind of thing. Yeah. A lot of the local places are really cool that are open open. Yeah. All right. My give us your number two. By the way, if I was going to do nostalgia, there was a place spuds and cuts down that they actually flooded and shut down. So I only have a food truck now, but I missed that place so much. So if they're out there, someone's listening to the sounds. I need some spuds. So bad. Spuds, spuds burger and there they have the best french fries on the planet. I'm telling you. I'm telling you. Anyway, if I was going into nostalgia route, but the current route is so you know, Megan and I like to frequent New York City. Yes. So we did. We do sometimes we and we because I'm an old man, we dinner on the early side, but we like when we're in the city and we're up late, we like to go to second dinner sometimes and our favorite spot again to sit at the bar and get late night dinner. What do you want to do? Second dinner is Tao. Yes. Love Tao. The first Tao is in the event of the second dinner. Love Tao is in the event of the second dinner. Go get some noodles or something, some sushi. So that's one that's close to my heart right now.

1:04:29Noodles and sushi. Daniel has brought out a book. I wrote down a bunch of them. Oh, okay. Yeah. I had time. I got a number two. What do you got? Number two for you. Number two for me is similar to field. This is sort of an open ended interpretation of how you want to look at it. For me, late night, a lot of times I'm coming back from a show. Just went to a place. I'm watching demand. I'm hungry. Gonna stop somewhere. It's that late night, wawa or sheets or that gas station that sells food that they will make for you right in front of you. Those are my favorite and they hit the spot late at night, especially when you're coming back from like a late, like a sporting event too. Yeah. It's perfect. I don't know if you guys ever been to wawa or sheets. I've been to a hundred and a thousand times. Yeah. Of course. I've got a sheets where I grew up and then wawa. Yeah. I don't know if popular the close issue in East towards a sheets is more of a PA thing. Yeah. Very similar to wawa. This is a very, I went one, one like super nitchy call is down at Rutgers. I went and visited a friend there once and we went to a day football game and then after the game we stopped and they called them, I think the carts are the trucks and they called

1:05:31them, I think they, I think they were called the fat carts. Yeah. And you would go and you would get these sandwiches and they'd be fat whatever. The fat football, the fat cop, the fat ruler, say it, whatever it is, right? And it would just be everything you could think of. Like rather than getting like mozzarella sticks and chicken fingers and french fries and have them each served and like a tray or a dish. They just put it, it would just put them all the grease trucks and what I'm being told they are called. It's amazing. Again, I think I like 99 cent heart attack are pretty exact. I think he has Jersey routes. So he knows what I'm talking about here. These grease trucks were amazing. So again, it might be like a very specific demographic. I love it. Any idea what I'm talking about, but I felt amazing coming out of it. I would say and I'm not, it might not be the same thing, but grease trucks, like any food truck late at night, like if you can find a spot that's open late at night for food trucks to give you some options like food truck food hits. So good. So good. Yeah. All right. Yeah.

1:06:32Maybe maybe in my prime, but again, I have to go back to this. I wanted to answer this honestly. Danny Glover and lethal way down the dressing. Yeah. Well, here's the thing. No croutons. You know, it's not like the old days and I want to answer this honestly. So, but I, here's the thing they, they're like, is it okay to snack at night or not? Are you supposed to snack before bed, but I am a snacker. Are you going to say policereal? So it's not policereal. It's just in general. Like, I do snack at night. So it's my sofa. My sofa is my top of late night eats, but wow. Wow. I'll make a peanut butter sandwich. A peanut butter sandwich. I'll have some chips, you know, something like that. It's never healthy. I'm mad about it, but that, I had last night some peanuts, you know, watch the show with the girls. I am furious. I respect you so much. I don't know. I don't know. Look, here's the thing. The people who are listening who are 40-ish-year-old males have to have to relate to this. Yeah. You don't go out at two in the morning anymore, right? We, there's what we do. We sit at home. We snack. That's, that's their honest answer. You guys, you guys, you guys can say what you ever want.

1:07:32But yeah, exactly. The honest real answer, all right? What do you got? My honest real answer is there is, there is only one. You're walking around New York City. It's one thirty in the morning. Yes. And you see a spot that says 99 cents slice of pizza. That's a good answer, too. You walk in and it crushes every single freaking time. Right. You're right. I like the slices of pizza that are also like threes. Like they're like the size of three and you buy them as one single slice. They never miss. All right. That's a good answer right there. I thought that there was one clear undisputed answer and I'm hoping that chat agrees. Taco Bell. Yeah. Oh, come on. You're right. That's an easy one. You'll play into the fans. That's the nostalgia one. That's an nostalgia one. Come on. I can't even have that anymore. I can't do it. But again, I used to grease saves you from the hangover. That's science. I super greasy. Do you eat it even though you can't? No, not anymore. Okay. I tried once in the last 20 years and it didn't end well. Yeah. White castle. Dan S says white castle. I haven't, I haven't been to white castle ever actually. I guess. Oh, Jack in the box.

1:08:33Mr. Aileman says, yeah, Jack in the box is delicious. Canes. Yep, they got a cane to your credit. We just brought one in. Kids brought one in. There we go. Late night taco stand. Yeah, I was going to say, if I'm in California, there's got to be some burritos and tacos at that. Absolutely. Logan T. Waffle House ultimate upside. Any breakfast diner in the morning like that house legit. Yep. Yeah, good. New Haven style pizza. Steel City Yang loves that. Great pizza down there. Shout out to whoever is a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, but Reppin, New Haven city or New Haven pizza. I would do that too. Steelers fans are everywhere. Yeah, they are. Every one of the biggest fan bases across the country. Great hanging out with you boys today. Had a blast. This is a good time. Do it again sometimes. We're going to be back tomorrow. Why not? Mike, you're going to show up where you go. Is the weather Miami too nice for you to come in tomorrow? You're not skip a week. Wow. I could guys get one day or two. Is wife turns. Exactly. A certain number once. Yes, right? Exactly. All right, guys, we love you. Don't forget to love each other and be kind to yourself. You deserve it. We'll be back tomorrow with a Thursday night football preview and our week three preview. Part one. We keep in these tattoos.
