Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome in everybody to Fantasy pros. This is the Fantasy
Football Podcast. It's me Joey p Joe Pisapia, and this
is week eleven in the NFL, when it's waiver wired time.
We're gonna look for more bodies to add to our rosters.
We're getting closer and closer to playoffs. You can almost
smell it in the air or in the in the
breath of the energy drinks from Derek Brown's mouth. That's
(00:23):
what you're drinking right there this morning. I got a
water this morning, baby, but it's never like a normal water.
It's like liquid death, heavy metal water that Derek Brown
drinks this morning. If it's Morris, you're shoveling out your driveway.
I heard this morning as well. So obviously we are
getting close in a playoff time.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Yeah, not quite to the level of shoveling, Joe, but
about two or three inches right now. Snow in Chicago
and uh more if you're near the lake. But yeah, winter.
Considering last week Friday, I think it was like almost
sixty degrees and now it's this. Yeah, it's a little
it's a little bit of a wake up Caluin makes
me think that fantasy places are just around the corner.

All right, a lot of fun stuff going on the NFL,
and we're gonna start with a Tampa Bay buccaneer.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Who ooh, the Bucks took a tough loss yesterday. Oh man,
got them. You love to see it, You love to
see it.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Now I have a little vacation, a little refresh, and
I came back and now the Patriots are eight and two,
eight and two, Boy, could you imagine waking somebody up
from a coma from the last couple of years and
they're like, oh, I hope everything's all right as long
as the Patriots are in the first place. Again, well
they are so, but let's talk about Tes Johnson because
Tes Johnson is that guy right now who's making the
(02:57):
big place for the Buccaneers. And I know the Bucks
outcome was not what they wanted, but Tes Johnson certainly
a guy worth looking at in the future.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Here.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Tes Johnson had a couple touchdowns yesterday and Pat I
know it's always a dangerous thing where we're saying, okay,
can't chase touchdowns, But in that mold of Jamison Williams,
there are these big play guys, right These guys, they
can be great flex plays and they can give you
that over the hump point total in a certain.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Week that you need.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
And Tes Johnson, it seems like, has really grown a
good rapport here, especially in these big spots, in these
big moments with Baker Mayfield, as evidenced by the touchdowns
that he's getting here in these.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Spots, yes, Joe Tes Johnson is punching well above his
one hundred and sixty five pound weight right now in
Fantasy four touchdowns over his last five games, with more
than forty receiving yards in all of those games. He
hasn't gotten sixty yards in any of those games, but
still the usage over that span is pretty decent. Five
point four targets a game, three point six catches, forty
(03:51):
nine point four yards per game, and yeah, Tes has
had some pretty touchdown dependent value. But he's currently the
number two receiver in a good offense with a good
quarterback in Baker Mayfield. And if Mike Evans comes back,
it probably wouldn't be until week fourteen or fifteen, and
it doesn't seem as if Chris Godwin is going to
(04:12):
be back from his leg injury real soon, so Tes
should be the number two receiver for at least another
couple of weeks and maybe through the end of the
fantasy regular season.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Now, Tes Johnson is a guy who've talked about before,
but he's still just fifty one percent roster on sleeper.
That number is lower when you move over to Yahoo
in some of those more shallow leagues. So Dee bro,
I think it's safe to say you can make a
case for him here in this stretch run of having
a presence on a fantasy benj Or as a flex
play for sure. I know Kate Otton also had nine
receptions to eighty two yards. I don't know if that's
another guy you want to talk about too, having a
(04:43):
role with Mike Evans out because Baker Mayfield can't just
rely on a Mecca Agua Aguka is terrific again led
the lead. Excuse me, led the team one hundred and
fifteen yards in a touchdown yesterday in terms of receiving total.
But teses Johnson again making those big splash plays. So
talk to me about Tes Johnson that role even maybe
when Evans returns potentially what that looks like, if it
(05:04):
looks at all, And if Kate Otton is another guy
too worth stashing on this Bucks team.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Yeah, Kate Adden's definitely in the conversation, and I talked
about him in the primer. It was a great matchup.
He was set to smash the only where I think
we talked about that the touchdown hot streak with Tes Johnson,
but I think he can continue is going back like
tying Kate Otten into this conversation. Kate Odden only has
one red zone target and one deep target. He's not
getting high leverage usage, so like he's soaking up all
(05:31):
of this low calorie underneath work and that's fine, but
that's not gonna put you over the top in fantasy.
Whereas Ted Johnson, he's getting deep targets, he's gonna get rid,
he's getting redszone work, and he's coming down with touchdowns. Man,
So yeah, he's gonna stay in that wide receiver three
flex conversation. When the touchdowns run hot like they've been doing,
He's gonna have some wide receiver two weeks. The upcoming matchups, Like,
(05:52):
is anybody scared of the Buffalo Bill's secondary? Okay, the Rams, yeah, sure,
but the Cardinals are banged up beyond repair, the Saints,
the Falcons, the Carolina Panthers twice, and the Dolphins.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Like Tess has got a really good run after.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
The schedule, and I think he keeps up this type
of production because, like we've kind of talked about here,
I don't know when we see Chris Godwin, I don't
know if we see him for the rest of the year.
And the same thing could be said for Mike Evans,
Like we're talking about it, like he comes back, but
there's a possibility where he might not come back in
the regular season.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
It could be the Bucks like shelve him for the playoffs.
Well that's also for perspective.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Remember that we were told that you know, well, you
start the year on the on the pup list, put
him on the IR and then we back around week five.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
It's week eleven. So if you don't think you can
miss the rest of.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
The season, then you have him paying attention because this
is double the amount of time here that we've been
waiting for him and it has not happened yet. But again,
THEO actually be tes Johnson certainly a guy to be
looking at. Also THEO Johnson, I want to talk about
all the Johnsons here at.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
The top of the show. This is what I want
to talk about because.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
THEO Johnson continues to be a guy that I think
has a lot of fantasy upside, and I know normally
in the show, know we kind of hit some of
these tight ends a little later, but again it's a
little light in terms of waiver wire this week, so
I want to talk to the tight end position as specifically.
Here we mentioned Auten, but THEO Johnson. Hopefully we get
Jackson Dart back sooner than later. I mean typically Pat
(07:12):
whenever you have a quarterback with a concussion, they tend
to miss at least that one week, as they should.
It's better for these guys to be safe. The Giants
aren't playing for a playoff spot or anything like that.
But THEO Johnson just roster in thirty one percent of leagues.
It seems like another player too. He's got touchdown at
when he's got five touchdowns on the ear Really, he
didn't do much the first month of the season, but
Jackson Dart certainly has been a guy that has looked
(07:33):
for him. And obviously without the big pieces around him,
without the camp scataboos and the league neighbors, THEO Johnson's
role has grown for the Giants. So do you think
it can continue to grow considering he's available in seventy
percent of leagues right now?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
I do, Joe, And the only real reservation about THEO
Johnson going into Week ten was that his production had
been so touchdown dependent. He had scored five touchdowns in
his previous six games, but there had only been one
game all season in which he'd had more than thirty
four receiving yards. Well, THEO Johnson didn't score a touchdown
against the Bears in Week ten, but the volume was
(08:05):
really encouraging. Eight targets, seven catches, seventy five yards, a
twenty two point two percent target share, and you have
to figure that THEO is going to be prominently involved
the rest of the way since the Giants have Wandale
Robinson and Darius Slayton at receiver and not much else,
and the schedule looks pretty good for THEO. He doesn't
have a glaringly unfavorable match up the rest of the way,
(08:26):
although he does have a Week fourteen.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
By Speaking of bys, too, we've got the Saints and
Colts on a by. Jonathan Taylor deserves a bye. That
guy was working pretty damn hard in that game yesterday. Man,
what are performance there? Jonathan Taylor certainly the fantasy MVP.
I know Pat fitz Morris is loving they had every
time Jonathan Taylor breaks off another run. There two hundred
plus yards for him yesterday. Incredible performance. Just three more touchdowns,
(08:49):
No big deal. I mean, like, to me, he's the
MVP of the league. I know he's not gonna win it,
but I mean he's the MVP of the league. Sorry, folks,
it doesn't have any quarterback.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
The magic numbers for him Joe rushing yards, twenty five touchhowns.
If he gets there in a in a year where
maybe the quarterbacks are sort of splitting the vote a
little bit, Oh absolutely, I think it's kind of happening
right now with like Mahomes and May and Donald. I
think I think Taylor could sneak in and win it.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
I just have a hard time believing anyone's going to
vote for Donald Josh Allen after yesterday that was that
was a brutal loss there for the Bills, and it's
not all Josh Allen's fault. He needs some more help
down the field from somebody that they don't have on
that roster.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
But Jonathan Taylor is.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
MVP folks at least right now. But again we know
how that goes. But I want to talk about somebody
else from that game on the other side of the football,
Tyler al Jeers. We get to the thirty six percent
roster percentage of Tyler al Jeer, who, again frustrating for
Bjon Robinson owners because eleven carries for our year, fifty
seven yards and not one but two touchdowns in that
game yesterday, So Deebro, let's talk about it, because I
(09:49):
know we've mentioned al Jiar before and we've talked about, well, okay,
you know sometimes he has these little one off moments
and we talk about if something should ever happen to Bijon,
how valuable Algie could be because we've seen him have
thousand yard rushing seasons here with this Atlanta Falcons team before.
So let's talk about as we get to Pat's favorite
time of year, the stuff in a cuff, and how
(10:10):
important is it that if you have Begon.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
To have him and if you don't have Bejon to
have him.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
I mean, I think that you can make cases that
he needs to be rostered on every single team, like
in every single league. I'll put it that way, like
because regardless of whether you have bejeon and you're talking
about handcuff status or you're talking about okay, bye, week's
hit me and I need a desperation RB two for
the week, he has flex utility Like in games Atlanta's won,
(10:37):
he's had these spikes in production as well as last week.
He gets a lot of the red zone work. And
I know if you have Bejon on a team like
I have a lot of Bijon exposure this year in fantasy,
it's incredibly frustrating because.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
You're like, oh, dude, why do they hate.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Bjeon Robinson, Like you're gonna I understand limiting Bijon's volume,
but in the red zone near where it's like touchdown time,
that's not where you limit his volume.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
It's in between the twenties. But look, I'm not in
one of the Atlanta.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
Coaches, so we can take advantage of this in fantasy.
How's youer coming away with the two scores last week?
And he does have favorable matchups that where we can
either project like Atlanta's gonna be in positive game script
or it's good rushing matchups. Moving forward, they get Carolina,
New Orleans, the Jets, Okay, Seattle, they're probably trailing the
same thing with the Bucks, and then they get the Cardinals, Rams,
and Saints.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
So two matchups of the Saints and a bunch of.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Other games where they should have positive game script to
help Alger increase the volume. So, whether you want to
talk about handcuff status or flex play status, How'sier really
fits into both of those buckets?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Pat, I want to also talk about Brian Robinson Junior
for a second too, because I think a lot of
folks were saying, Okay, well, you know, I guess the
Giants went off whatever game script of that game, blah
blah blah, five for fifty three in a touchdown. Well,
yesterday Brian Robinson Junior had eight for forty one in
a touchdown. So this is another player who is rostered
in about thirty three percent of leagues right now on
(11:57):
sleeper who would be more of a priority for you
based on you know what's in front of them in
the situation. Would it be a guy like Algier or
would it be a guy like Brian Robinson Junior.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
If I didn't have Christian McCaffrey, I would rather have
Tyler Lgier, who I think offers more standalone value, like
in certain matchups, And he's got a couple of those
matchups coming up, the Saints and the Jets. Like, you
can absolutely start Tyler Algier in those matchups and feel
okay about it, Brian Robinson, I don't think you can start,
And I don't think he has any He doesn't have
(12:28):
any stand alone value. It's all just waiting for an
injury for Christian McCaffrey. But if you are the Christian
McCaffrey stakeholder, and you have had the lucky run out
to this point where McCaffrey has not gotten hurt dinged. Really,
I don't know if he's missed a practice this season,
which is kind of stunning it. Stop playing the game
of chicken, go get Brian Robinson.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Well, I think the other thing is, you know, deebro,
when you've seen the San Francisco forty nine or backfield
over the years, right, You've seen Well McCaffrey's out, You've
seen Jordan Mason, You've seen Eli Midgell, you've seen Isaac Garunda,
You've seen everybody basically be successful in this quote unquote system.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Of Kyle Shanahan.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
And it feels like Brian Robinson from the last two weeks,
you get an inkling that. Yeah, I think the forty
nine ers would still keep kind of trucking along if
Brian Robinson had to take over the full time duties.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Yeah, I agree, I think that.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Now. I'm not saying they wouldn't miss a beat, but
I think you love, let's understand, nobody's Christian McCaffrey, well,
but nobody's Jonathan Taylor I think that's the.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Real answer to the question there. But of course you're
not replacing Christian McCaffrey. But we've seen all those guys.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Step in and b RB two ish with a little
bit higher upside sometimes.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Yeah, but could be Rob b Jordan Mason if CMC
were to miss time, he absolutely could be. I mean,
you can make a case that he's a better player
than Jordan Mason, and I don't think that's crazy either,
So high end handcuff value as well as if San
Francisco and we always talk about this guys, and I
know we haven't seen the kind of fruition, but if
they do limit it, like not limit, but take a
little bit off of CMC's plate down the stretch because
(13:54):
San Francisco keeps winning games.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Now.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
I know they didn't take down the Rams this last week,
but the rest of their schedule look like they're probably
a playoff team. And if that's going to be the case,
they know that if they want to go deep in
the playoffs and stuff like, they've got to put up points.
They need CMC. So we could see B Rob a
little bit more involved down the stretch. Then maybe we've
seen I guess the rest of the totality the season so.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Far, pat I want to talk about Seawn Tucker, who
I believe you mentioned was the first running back all
year to have more than fifty yards rushing against the Patriots.
That's kind of a stunning little trivia piece right there.
Nine carries for fifty three were Shawn White in the
same backfield ten for thirty eight yesterday. So obviously Tucker
had a little bit better of a day. But how
much we want to take out of that considering the
(14:37):
Bucky Irving status, Shawn Tucker available, by the way, in
ninety percent of leagues, So if you need some RB
depth here as we're getting into November, it feels like
Seawn Tucker's at least a guy in deeper leagus to
speculate on, would you be spending on Shawn Tucker this week?
Speaker 2 (14:52):
I would want to check the latest reports on Seawn
Tucker right before I put in that fat bed, Okay,
because we it seems as if Bucky is getting close,
although we haven't gotten any real definitive word about what
the timetable is, how soon they like him back, And
as soon as Bucky comes back, Tucker's value goes up
in smoke. But if Bucky does not come back this week,
(15:17):
and let's say you have Jonathan Taylor on Bay and
need a one week band aid at running back, Bucky
doesn't come back this week, Tucker gets a pretty good
matchup against the Bills, who've struggled against the run all
season and just got laid to waste by Devon ah Chan.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
It's hard to look at the Bills right now and
think that they're a team that can win a Super
Bowl watching them this year, I just don't think the
way the defense is played and with the way the
weapons around him have acted, I just it's tough. And
I know if a lot of Bills mafia thought this
was like this is our year.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
Pathway's clear.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
You know, maybe the Chiefs aren't what they used to
be and they're looking around the AFC. But you know,
it's not just this loss against Miami too. I think
it's been just how they've played all season. It's the
loss at home to the Patriots, it's a few other
games where they just look a little lackluster this year
and the defense has not played well.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
I want to talk about ready to drop.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Too, because you know, Trevon Henderson pretty good I mean
this was a tough matchup to this. This Buck's defense
on paper very good against the run, fourteen forty seven,
two touchdowns. I know he had two breakaway runs, but Debro,
that's what Travion does, right, That's why we've been pounding
the table for weeks and weeks.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
We've talked about buying.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Low everywhere for Travion for a few weeks now, and
now they've got that. It's it's kind of like when
Doc Brown, you know, takes the tarp off the DeLorean
and we're all like.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Whoa, look at this?
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Oh my god, Like this is so cool. Oh yeah,
he's also really fast as breakaway speed. Does this mean
the death of vermondre stevensentially people be dropping Romandre on
their rosters.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Yeah, man, I think you got to consider it depending
on what's out there. I definitely think it's possible, Like
if you don't have an ir spotlight because if toe
injuries can be problematic. Sure, it's not even practicing right now.
Even if he gets in limited practices this week. Is
he going to be back this week? When he comes
back the week after that, is he gonna what type
of role is he gonna assume? Like Travion. I mean, dude,
(17:00):
the speed was definitely on display. And I want to
give a hat tip to the New England Patriots offensive line,
like they open it did so massive holes. Dude like
just got him in the second level and he just
ran away from dudes. So Vermondre like it's I mean,
god man, Like we've had so many iterations of like
Vermandre Stevenson this year. It's like, Okay, he lost the job.
He's got the job. He can't fumble away at the job.
(17:20):
The job is his no matter how many downs he fumbles.
Now he's hurt, and now Trevion's exploding, and it's like, okay,
what are you hoping out of keeping Ramandre Stevenson on
your team? Like he's gonna vulture a touchdown or two?
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Wait wait, wait wait can I push back on this
for a second.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Oh yeah, I want you to brought one thing too.
Since twenty twenty one, Actually I should say in this game,
I want to say it was the Kyle Williams player
with the Mac Collins play.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
One of those was the.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Most explosive play quote unquote that the Patriots have had
since twenty twenty one, which has been a huge problem
with this offense, right, So now treyvon Henderson. Of course,
in that game between the Hollins, between the Treyvon Henderson,
all the explosive plays, right, you saw it on display.
So pat I want to put in context for you too.
If you have a Brian Robinson Junior on the out
there on the waiver wire, which you probably do, if
you have a Tyler Algier on the waiver wire, would
(18:07):
those guys be theoretically more valuable than Ramondre Stevenson down
the stretch run for you?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Possibly because the only thing is, like, we're not really
in the business of predicting injuries. Sure, so like what
if Traveon Henderson gets hurt and then Remondre. I think
Romandre is still going to be at least somewhat involved
when he gets back Joe and the pay Let's look
at the Patriots schedule the rest of the way. It
is extremely running back friendly Jets, Bengals, Giants, My Week, Bills,
(18:38):
Ravens Jets. There are some really good matchups in there.
And if anything happened at Traveon Henderson, you would want
Remandre and Romandre still might have standalone value even with
Henderson's breakout, So I think I kind of still want Henderson.
But Joe, since you are the bellicost god of player drops,
the areas have dropped. Play if you will, Can I
(19:01):
appease you with a couple of different running back sacks es?
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Sure? I love them. To the altar of.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Joe, I shall make fantasy football games.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
What have you done? What have you done?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
What about Jordan Mason? He only played third of the
Vikings offensive snaps against the Ravens on Sunday. Aaron Jones
was the lead back. And Jordan Mason gives you nothing
as a pass catcher. You know, he has to do
it all on the ground and he's not getting enough
snaps or carries to do that.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Look again, I think theoretically Mason has more upside to
me than Remandre does. Just from like, I just feel
like the writing's on the wall here where they tried
to do the Remandra thing as long as they can
before somebody became undeniable, and I think Trayveon's becoming undeniable
at this point last two weeks. But to your point, Mason,
we also said this too early on. We're like, look,
(19:53):
this upcoming schedule here is really brutal for Mason, and
we talked about that after he kind of quote unquote
got the jo because Aaron Jones was hurt and when
Jones back in the mix, I think both those guys,
to be honest with you, again, it's I don't want
to start any of those guys at this point. If
I'm just looking for a bench guy with huge upside,
it's Algier, it's Robinson, because if something happens to one
(20:14):
of the guys in front of them, these guys really
become appealing to me to play Deebrow. Do you feel
the same way, Yeah, I'm kind of.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Like if either one of these guys, Stevenson and Mason,
I think you can put these guys in the same
bucket at the pat's point. With Stevenson's schedule, like Mason
weeks fourteen, fifteen, and sixteen against the Commanders, the Cowboys,
and the Giants. Yeah, Jones, this is any more times
that's a problem, it's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
So I think both of these guys, it's a contextual
thing with your roster. Are you ever flexing them? Are
you ever starting them?
Speaker 4 (20:48):
If that's not the case, then would you rather have
a high end handcuff if the starter goes out to
where you're getting not, okay, do I start him?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Do I not?
Speaker 4 (20:57):
What's the role Okay, I'm leaning on schedule versus a
guy that's gonna get maybe if every if injuries happened,
which guys, okay, fine, this last week we didn't see
any catastrophic injuries. We've been getting those in groups of
two and three over the last like almost every single week,
somebody's getting hurt and lost for the season or multiple weeks.
(21:18):
So to me, it comes down to contextualizing your roster
and if they're never going to hit your starting lineup,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
I can make cases both sides of it. Do you
want to sacrifice anybody?
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Okay Cuba Hubbard who now has no standalone value, But you.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Know what, I feel like that's something we called two
weeks ago in the show where it was it's not
for ten, like, I don't care what the money is
in the scenario. It's it's so obvious that Rico is
helping this team and you have to get to the football.
More so like Cuba, I'm that one. I'm on board
for what else?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I mean, if you in a short bench league, maybe
in a league where you have deeper benches, you want
to keep them as a handcuff. Rico' Downell and I
totally understand that. So those are really the only two
running backs. I hadn't mind, Joe, but I thought that
might overuse you.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Well, I am god of drops is full and let's

All right, let's get to the wide receivers here, and
let's start with Darius Slayton fifty one percent rostered and
(23:48):
Jerry Judy fifty two percent rostered. So these guys obviously
still kind of, you know, hanging around some waiver wires,
maybe recently dropped. I know Judy had a little moment yesterday.
I don't know if we want to chase that. Darius
Slayton might have to play next week with Russell Wilson.
Why we don't see Jamis Williams Winston. I don't understand
why we don't see Jameis Winston.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
Why not? What do we have to lose here? Boys
and girls?
Speaker 1 (24:09):
But if it is Wilson this week, I don't know
how that impacts potentially what you guys think. So debro
whyn't you kick this off here? Any love for Judy
or Slayton on the waiver wire here with fifty percent
roster shoe?
Speaker 4 (24:18):
I got a lot of love for Slayton because even
if we only get one week of Russell Wilson. We
know Jackson Dart's coming back, dude, and Helay great.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Yesterday he played terrific. Yeah we got hurt. And the
thing with Slayton is that he could have had a
bigger game.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
He missed part of that game with a hamstring issue,
which has been kind of problematic for him missing parts
of games and stuff like that. But like he's had
some big moments. I think it could have been an
even bigger game. But like the upcoming matchups are pretty
good too. Man, Like Packer's secondary is taking a little
bit steff back. They get the Lions, the Patriots, the
Commanders who don't have a secondary anymore. The Viking is
the same thing, and the Raiders and the Cowboys. So
(24:51):
Slayton is gonna continue to have wide receiver three strong
flex appeal with the I mean, he's gonna have spike
weeks in these remaining games. So I'll really be like Slayton, Judy,
I feel like we're chasing here. Like I get the
fact that he got a thirty seven point five percent
target chair. He actually did something with it this last week,
which is not something we get saved for pretty much
(25:11):
the totality the rest of the season for Jerry Judy.
I guess, if you want to, if we want to
have the glass half full approach with Jerry Judy, if
dealing great Gabriel continues to not play great, we are
going to see Schadur Sanders and Shouldrew Sanders cannot be
any worse than what we've seen in a Dylan Gabriel.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
So if we.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Wanted to, you know, believe in Jerry Judy. And I'm
not saying that he's not rosterbule. It depends on what
you have, who do you have on your team and stuff,
and if he's out there, pick him up because the
schedule is good and if the quarterback play improves at all,
he probably does have decent flex value because they get
the Ravens, the Raiders, the forty nine Ers are not
a going to match up for our outside wide receivers
within the Titans, Bears, Bills, Steelers, and Bengals to close
(25:51):
the season.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Pat, I know two weeks ago before I learn on
vacation Jerry Judy was a guy you wanted to drop.
We had that discussion here on the show, and I
think after this past week games, people are wondering should
they be chasing that?
Speaker 3 (26:02):
So Judy or Slayton.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Let's say both these guys are out there in a
shallow league, would you pick up either one of them?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I would pick up Slayton because the reason is debro
laid out and Slayton is a vertical receiver and Jackson
Dart is not afraid to go deep, like he will
throw deep. And by the way, like, yes, if Russell
Wilson does have to start because of Jackson Dart's concussion
against the Packers, you're not gonna want to play Slayton.
But if they decide to start Jamis Winston, like, I
(26:29):
want Darius Slayton in my DFS lineups next week. Yes,
so that would be kind of a hidden bonanza. So
worth putting in a bit on Slaton. As for Judy,
Joe like, he's been playing a lot of snaps, running
a lot of routes, seeing good number of targets, and
getting a lot of air yards all season. It just
hasn't amounted to anything until Week ten, when he had
(26:51):
a season nine six catches a season high seventy eight
yards in his first touchdown of the year. Even with
the good day against the Browns, Judy is averaging five
point one year yards per target and zero point eighty
six yards per rout run. Those are atrocious numbers. But
Judy has a good schedule the rest of the way,
like no more poor matchups and several good ones, So
(27:12):
like he might be usable, but you're just never gonna
feel good about using it.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
If the Browns had kept Joe Flacco, do you think
they still be two and seven?
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Just out of curiosity, guy, they'd probably have another winner too.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Probably if they had another two, they would be four
and five. And that's the same record of the Ravens.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
Right now.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
We're at second place, a game behind the Steelers. Just
putting that out there, just putting that out there. Everybody better,
Yes it is, but just I wanted to ask the
question there. All right, let's talk about some guys kind
of in that weird middle range here. Christian Watson thirty
seven percent. I know he's gonna play tonight. He was
questionable going into the week. Calvin Austen who played last night. Again,
(27:49):
just not a lot there for not a lot there
for Aaron Rodgers to work with. But I don't want
to make excuses for Ervon Rodgers. And Luther Bird fourteen
percent rostered.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
So pat these are three guys kind of in that
mid tier range here.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
I know. I think we all look at Christian Watson
being that playmaker guy. Let's see what he does tonight.
I think if he has a big game on Monday,
people are gonna chase it even more, which might not
be a bad thing because nobody's really kind of stepped
up for Jordan Love to be that consistent threat. So
do you think Christian Watson can be that guy? Do
you have any love for Burden or is it Calvin
Austin maybe as well?
Speaker 2 (28:18):
For you you said consistent threat. I don't know if
Christian Watson can be that because the profile is so
boom er bost Jordan Love spreads it around, and Watson's
average depth of target since coming back twenty three point
one yards. So while he is not a high volume
target earner, but he earns the sort of targets that
can lead to splash plays and he might only need
(28:39):
one or two catches to give you good numbers on
the week, So he's interesting. Luther Burden is interesting too,
because I have no idea why Alamide's a Caves continues
to play more snaps than Luther Burden, but the gap
is closing. Zak has played only six more snaps than
Burd in Week ten, and hopefully Ben Johnson like full
(29:00):
flips the Burden switch this week because he is lightning
in a bottle and I'm just really intrigued by the talent.
And then Calvin Austen I'm not too excited by, but
I think the reason to maybe be interested in him
in deeper leagues he gets the Bengals and the Bills
the next two weeks, and in the game against the Bengals,
he probably is not going to be the one to
catch coverage from DJ Turner, who's been like the one
(29:24):
tough matchup in the Bengals secondary de bro.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
You know, if you miss out on Tess Johnson, is
Christian Watson kind of a good consolation prize at this point?
Speaker 4 (29:34):
Yes, Sir and Pat talked about the twenty three A dot.
I mean Christian Watson is performing as the Jamison Williams
and the Packers offense.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Now, can they be volatile? Yes, absolutely can be. Are
there gonna be weeks to where you say, oh good lord, why.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
Did I flex him? But if you look at the
remaining schedule. Guys, their next seven weeks, five of those
games against the Giants, the Vikings, the Ravens.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
And they get the Bears twice.
Speaker 4 (29:59):
All of those teams are nestled comfortably inside the top
twelve in deep ball completion rate allowed. So if we're
talking about downfield usage and that the field stretching component
of this offense, and that's what Christian Watson is doing,
He's gonna have spike weeks. He's gonna have good, really
good flex weeks upcoming. I'm not saying he hits in
all of those, but that's a really good schedule for
(30:21):
his role. All Right, let's dig deeper here because in
some of the I guess more competitive leagues or deeper leagues,
the waiver wires a little tricky. I want to start
with Tyler Lockett five percent roster. Tyler Lockett obviously kind
of filled the voige. Kobe Meyers got sent packing and
off the scrap heap comes Tyler Lockett to lead this team. Now,
it wasn't a very impressive number, it was five for
(30:42):
forty four because it is the Raiders.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
But there is a rapport there.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
There is a history with Geno Smith and I think
a lot of people Deebro will think about that and go, oh,
Tyler Lockett, maybe that's somebody worth adding here potentially, And
I don't know if they're wrong. I think that might
actually be a smart way. And looking at the roster
percentage again, he is only five percent roster on labor,
which means he's probably one percent rostered everywhere else. If
that so, Tyler Lockett widely available? Is that a guy
(31:06):
that you would consider adding for a couple bucks this week?
Speaker 4 (31:08):
He Bro, Absolutely, you need to consider adding him as
a flex play for this week. And I'm not talking
about upcoming weeks and all that kind of stuff after that.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
For this week.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
Tower Lockett gets the Cowboys this week. Do I need
to say anything more?
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Guys?
Speaker 4 (31:22):
I will, But I mean, do I need to say
anything more? It's the freaking Cowboys. But we have talked
about him, preached religiously since the Trade Tucker breakout game,
and we all said, like this, this is an outlier,
this is false, do not chase this, do not spend
your fab on this. Tyer Lockett, in his first full
game of The Raiders, shove Trey Tucker into a corner.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Dude.
Speaker 4 (31:44):
He had a twenty two percent target chair hit the
which double tray tucker one point nine one yards per
route run, and a twenty one percent first reach cheer.
So you're telling me Tyl Lockett gets the Cowboys this week,
who have allowed the second most PPR points per target
to opposing slot wide receivers.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Yeah, he's a good Flix play.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Okay, Pat your thoughts on Tyler Lockett here Again, Sometimes
we see this right, just a player off the scrap heap.
But sometimes you know when you have those little rekindling
of olde relationships. You know, these two guys getting back together,
there is a timing, there is a report, there's a
confidence in each other here and it's with Pete Carroll
again too, so the same head coach. I know a
(32:22):
lot of people want to put those pieces together and
have it, you know, work. To Deebro's point, it should
at least work for next week, and I think that's
the thing we're trying to look for right now.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Yep, he's a deep league pick up. And it certainly
seems like Tyler Lockett is going to be a lot
more involved in Las Vegas than he was in Tennessee
and very matchup de Pennant. But the matchup against Dallas, yes,
that is the spot where you can play him so.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Far Dallas Cowboys too, just to you know, kind of
pour salt in the wound here in terms of the
yardage given up, it's it's been a lot.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
It's been a lot here.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Just looking at the receiving it's you know, it's crazy too,
you know, just a little bit well, you know, and
some of those moves early too, you know when we're
talking about, you know, like the Sauce Gardener trade, like
certainly he didn't stop Drake London yesterday, like some of
these trades this week on the defensive side, I think
kind of scratched my head. The Cowboys won, and I
think the Colts giving up two first round picks there
(33:16):
for for sast Garden, I thought was a little absurd,
did you guy? I assume like I wasn't here to
talk about it, so I didn't get any you know,
of your feelings or thoughts. I saw that I was
somewhere in Universal Studios when I saw that with my kids.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Going two first round picks. Was that the general tone
here on the program.
Speaker 4 (33:32):
I assume I two first round picks and I'll just
say this is a blanket statement. Two first round picks
for any freaking corner with the volatility of that position
on year to year is.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
Just absolute insanity to me.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
And then you talk about like, yeah, Sauce didn didn't
do anything to Drake London because they didn't have him
shadow him. Like, if you're gonna run a lot of
his own coverage and you're not playing man and he's
not gonna follow him everywhere, are you really even taking
advantage of the picks you just gave up to get
a shut down corner?
Speaker 3 (34:00):
You know?
Speaker 1 (34:00):
It's funny though, looking receevn yards given up to the
Cowboys are actually not the worst in the league. It's
a commanders. The Commanders, the Steelers, and the Colts have
all given up more, which I think is really sneaky.
And I and I know, you know, Cowboys off this week,
so we're not gonna catch up. But still, I mean,
it's it's it could have been a good margin there,
So keep an.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
Eye on that. Those are the teams too, some good
matchups to play against.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
All right, let's talk about Jalen Naylor, Devon Vley, two
more free square guys, pat There was a lot of
hub up on the broadcast yesterday with McCarthy's where they
were talking about you know, McCarthy really likes you know,
Nailer and they've got a really good you know, chemistry growing.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Is that something you want to buy into? Is vle
somebody want to buy into?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Nope? Okay, not chasing the number three receiver in a
low octane passing attack and JJ McCarthy has averaged one
hundred and seventy three passing yards in his four starts.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Yeah, and I know Vley kind of was, you know,
taking up the mantle there for Shaheed being moved on.
So whenever, you know, a guy gets traded, sometimes somebody
else pops up, so Veley is I mean, I know
the Saints won yesterday, Tyler Shock.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
Had a couple more, had a couple of moments. Hey,
they won. I know much of the Chagrida view, they're.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Happy about that.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
But if you're not a fan anymore, I thought you
renounced your fandom. I thought we're past that. I I am.
Speaker 4 (35:09):
But the more they lose, the greater the chances that
Mickey Loomis eventually has to pack his suitcase.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
All right, but Gleay Naylor there no goes for you
as well.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Right now, I'm not.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Chasing out one of these guys like Vyle, Like, look,
he let the team in snaps and routes and all
that kind of stuff, only earned three targets.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
Now, I'm not chasing them. I'm not chasing the Jalen
Naylor stuff.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
But I would say for Valley at least, the Saints
have a really skinny target tree. It's basically a lave.
It's Juwan Johnson and I think Vle is the number
three guy now. So in a deep league where there's
tumbleweeds on the waiver wire, Valley is a decent speculative bad.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
I think I can't believe how unprepared or ill prepared
the the Caroline Panthers were yesterday. Like that was just
it just reeked of.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
They just didn't take the preparation seriously. And you know,
Tyler Schuck went in there and beat him and just
crazy town. Man.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
Can you imagine when your entire offenses just run the ball,
run the ball, run the ball.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
Eventually you have to understand a defense is gonna say, okay, fine,
We're just gonna set up stops to run and force
you to pass and That's where it's like, well, Bran Sean.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Can't do that, So what you're gonna do?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Can you imagine someone on the show being dumb enough
to have taken the Panthers in a survivor pool yesterday?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
Boy, oh boy, I've been out of my Survivor. I
love you three, so I know it's not you. And uh,
there's one other person there is.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
This show count as a health check. What you got
this far? You got this far?
Speaker 1 (36:38):
I mean you don't have a lot of choices left
on the table, so you know, going against the Saints
was not a bad choice.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
I'm just trying to cut corners and it did not work.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
It never does, It never does.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
All right, Two more guys want to talk about if
we should chase them or not, because I'm sure a
lot of people will want to or desire to potentially.
Matt Collins six for one oh six, Kyle Williams one.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
It was a big one.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
One for seventy two yards again, the most explosive play
they've had in almost five seasons, and for a touchdown
as well. So one for seventy two in a touchdown.
Now here's the thing. Keishon Booty was out this week.
They do play in a short week, so do either
of them have a least streaming appeal for Week eleven?
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Pat Booty was hamstring, right, yeah, yeah, so yeah, he's
not coming back this week. I'm interested in Kyle Williams.
You know, the these two guys, one who had one
catch and one who had six. I'm more interested in
the one catch guy.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
Kyle Williams and not de Mario Douglas was the Patriots
third receiver yesterday, and that fits what the Patriots coaches
had been talking about in the run up to this
game and wanting to get Kyle Williams more work. He
played fifty six percent of the snap Douglas only twenty
one percent, and man, Kyle Williams was flying on that
long catch to run for the touchdown. That acceleration was
(37:57):
really impressive. And Drake may is another quarterback who just
likes to throw to the open man and spreads the
ball around to a bunch of different pass catchers, which
isn't the worst thing if you're talking about investing in
like the fourth or fifth option in this passing game.
So like, as a speculative ad, I don't mind Kyle Williams,
(38:17):
but you can. You can miss me.
Speaker 3 (38:19):
On Matt Collins like, yeah, I would just on both.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Personally, I'd rather Yeah, give me the fast athletic guy.
Like if you play in a league where your guy
gets points for the vigorous celebration of running the mill catches,
Matt Collins is absolutely your guy. But if barefoot, he's.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
Living life Pat Okay? You know Pat, when we.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Go to our meetings in New Orleans in January, I
want to watch Pat Fitzmorris walk around the hotel barefoot.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
That's what I want to see.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
I want to see getting off the shuttle bus barefoot
walking around the hotel. Joey, you could you clown me
about walking around barefoot inside of hotel rooms?
Speaker 3 (39:01):
You want this?
Speaker 1 (39:01):
I want to do for mccollins. I think it'd be hilarious. Man,
you can miss me with both a hotel. You just
don't do it in a hotel, would you?
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Stream?
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Like they're playing the Jets this week. Obviously the Jets
are gonna be about Garrett Wilson, so offense is gonna
be tough. I imagine the game script is going to be,
you know, pretty good for the run, but you.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
Never know that it is against the Jets.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
There's one thing you know sometimes the Patriots like to
do is take out the you know, the whooping stick
and whoop on the Jets a little bit.
Speaker 4 (39:31):
Yeah, I mean in most leagues, I'm not chasing either
one of these guys. I will say in this last week,
I was big Mac over Kyle Williams, and both these
guys popped off for risk of season value. I don't
really want to chase either one of these guys. Like
in deeper formats, if you want to take the speculative
add on Kyle Williams, I get it for this week.
If you wanted a flex play out of these two,
(39:52):
which I don't really want to bid on either one
of them. I don't want to feel like I'm point
chasing with Mac Collins, but I would lean to MATC.
Collins getting a thirty two percent target this last week.
Guys like that, that's sizable. Shoes are no shoes. Guys
like thirty two percent target chair He popped off for
over one hundred receiving yards, And to me, it comes
back to the coverage matchup. The Jets have had a
(40:12):
lot of weeks where they have been very too high
heavy Matt Collins. His numbers have been extremely good versus that,
and that's why that I wrote him up in the
primers of flex play for the last week. So yeah,
I mean, you could flex Mac in a deep league,
but in most respects, I'm not chasing either one.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
And in fairness to Mac, he is going to be
on the field a lot because he is a demon
as a run blocker, and there's gonna be a lot.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
Of run on the football probably too. What about dropping guys?
Is Trey Tucker a guy we drop for? Gone? Tyler Lockett?
Is that what movie we will make? Yeah? Yeah, all right,
so we're all in agreement on that one. So three
for three come.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
How about Darnell Mooney?
Speaker 3 (40:48):
Oh, I goff him two weeks ago before I went
on vacation. We already had this conversation. So people people
are gonna say, oh, but he gotta eat targets. Last
week he did.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Gone too long to Darnell Mooney, I think, and I
understand why. I think has some talent, but the way
this offense runs, to me sometimes is a bit of
a just enigma.
Speaker 3 (41:05):
But I'm with you. Anything else you'd like to sacrifice
on the wide receiver alter?
Speaker 2 (41:09):
Yeah, Moody is the only one. I mean movie offering.
Mooney had that egregious drop on the late drive where
the Falcons are trying to and you almost give Drake
London a concussion on that touchdown celebration, Like, what are
you doing?
Speaker 3 (41:21):
Dude?
Speaker 1 (41:22):
I get nervous to you when the guys are the
backflips too. I'm waiting for some guy to tear his ac.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
A backflip to John is like a gymnast, I know.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
And I just like, stop doing that. Don't bother me.
The handstands on the neck. That that that's what makes
me worry.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
I'm looking at you. I'm telling these guys, look, you
do not get hurt celebrating. I need you for the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
Okay, you don't want your kids cutting backflips some of
these core touchdowns, look high fives, do whatever you want
to do some funny stuff, but not with the backflips.
Speaker 3 (41:47):
I mean, I tearing a c L and all these things. Man,
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
All right, let's get to the streamers of the week here,
dee bro start with you. Who's a quarterback you want
to stream in Week eleven?
Speaker 4 (41:56):
It's gross, man, I mean, right now, I'll just say
that it's not a great week for streaming quarterbacks, But
I'll take Marcus Mariota's chances against the Miami Dolphins too
high coverage. He's got answers in that receiving room against
too high. They don't have any answers right now against
single highest. So I'll take Marcus Mario to the rushing
equity and a pretty good matchup.
Speaker 3 (42:15):
Fitzy, how about you? In a tough week for streaming
qbs was at the top of the.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
List, Aaron Rodgers against the Bengals. I know he played
a poor game against the Chargers, but look, the Bengals
are not the Chargers, and it's a home game, and
the hope is that the Bengals score enough points to
push Rogers into a shootout with Joe flacout quarterback for
the Bengals. Pretty decent chance that happens.
Speaker 3 (42:35):
All right.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
Well, on the one streaming quarterback this past week had
a fun day. Davis Mills had a good day and
he threw a touchdown of Dalton Schultzen. That so you
want to stream this week, FITZI right.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
Yeah, give me Dalton Schultze. I know the Titans are
not necessarily a great matchup for tight ends, but Schultz
has eight or more targets in three of his last
four games, including a pair of double digit target games.
He has become the Texans number two pass catcher behind
Nico Collins.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
That's so sad to say that, All right, Debro, who
are you streaming at tight end this week?
Speaker 4 (43:04):
I'm gonna go with Colston Lovelin and I know a
Kole Comet pack. He was still splitting snaps with him,
but at a sixty one percent route Chaer was very
efficient with his targets. The Minnesota Vikings have given out
the seventh most schedule adjusted Fantasy points per game of
the last five weeks, so I'll just take the matchup.
Speaker 3 (43:19):
All right. Streaming defense, Debro.
Speaker 4 (43:23):
Bonix has been prone to doing really stupid things with
the football boys, So I'm gonna go with the Kansa
City Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (43:28):
Okay, Chiefs for Debro, FITZI for you.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Spend a little extra fab money on the Falcons this week.
Their next three games are against the Panthers, Saints, and Jets.
Drop three or four bucks on the Falcons and you
will not have to worry about picking up another defense
until Week six game.
Speaker 1 (43:44):
That's let's talk about kickers because we have to Fitcy.
Speaker 2 (43:49):
Give me a kicker, Evan McPherson. Since Joe Flacco arrived
in Cincinnati, the Bengals have averaged thirty two point eight
points per game and McPherson has averaged ten point three
Fantasy points per game.
Speaker 3 (44:01):
Yeah, and the defense is average given up four hundred
points per game. So where it goes? Way to go?
Since all right, debro, give me a kicker for a
week eleven.
Speaker 4 (44:08):
Yeah, speaking of points and bad defenses, Cara Santos against
the Vikings. The Bears are gonna have to put up
points and get in the red zone, and they're gonna
have to give them kicking opportunities in this game.
Speaker 1 (44:17):
All right, don't forget everybody. Waiver Central's there on the
tools to help you. Go to fancaybros dot com, slash
my playbook, or just download the app. If you need
more help with your waiver claims this week, Waiver Central
is the tool to help you. And of course, if
you're still playing old school waiver games out there with
the list of the top five this week, Pap Fitz Morris,
give us your top five ads for week eleven.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
In the NFL Tes Johnson number one, Tyler Algier number two.
I'm gonna say Kenneth Gainwell number three. I kind of
have reservations on this just because Caleb Johnson was getting
some run against the Chargers. But like the Pittsburgh Steelers,
their schedule is so running back friendly the rest to
the way. If anything happened to Jalen Warren, Gainwell and
(44:59):
maybe kylebe Johnson could be called on the stretch receivers.
It's really hard to pick from all these guys beyond tes,
but I think I like Christian wattson the most. So
he's at number four, and then Colston Loveland at number five.
I think his time has come in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
Yeah, it certainly seems like it too. Chicago's another weird one.
They got a good record. I'm still not sure how
good of a team they are though, just I'm still
very skeptical. Deebro Top five ads for the week.
Speaker 4 (45:23):
Yeah, I think those wins are a little bit overrated.
But yeah, we could have a Bears conversation.
Speaker 2 (45:27):
For another day.
Speaker 3 (45:28):
But Ted Johnson number one.
Speaker 4 (45:30):
Christian Watson, I'm gonna put up the number two because
I think he's going to have some very high inflex
moments for the rest of the season.
Speaker 3 (45:35):
Tower's your number three.
Speaker 4 (45:36):
Brian Robinson, I'm gonna sneak in here at four and
Colston Loveland for the same reason as Pat talked about
number five.
Speaker 1 (45:41):
