0:00I woke up this morning so excited for football.
0:05So excited. You have no idea.
0:08I've waited what, eight months for this, right? Fantasy season's finally here.
0:14Hell, I even have Drake May on my fantasy football team. I get to see my guy play and I get to hang out with my
0:22friends cuz we are streaming on the Flock League channel.
0:29And it it was literally hell. It It does not get worse.
0:34I can't believe what we just witnessed.
0:40Everything fell apart. Now, honestly, I don't even want to start with the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle has crazy things to discuss because Jerry and
0:47Price look very good, but it may not matter if you have no Darnold. Let's talk about New England cuz here's the
0:52deal. Everything's falling apart.
0:56Drake May, who I started, three interceptions, one singular touchdown.
1:01Now, I may say like, oh, okay. Um, who cares, right? We could go through and we can say this was a really tough matchup
1:10for him.
1:13It was really tough for him to go up against the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl. The Seahawks dominated them in the Super Bowl seven months ago. Why
1:20did we think it would be any different today? Maybe I could chalk it up to the fact that it was a bad matchup. But with
1:26the AJ Brown injury and now the outlook that we have for this New England Patriots offense, I have to nuke Drake May in my rankings.
1:35I took this dude in the seventh round of the Flock League. I don't even know if I can start him next week.
1:43Like at least he had 47 rushing yards, right? At least he was able to demonstrate some rushing upside when they couldn't move the offense at all.
1:51He could at least do a little fake play action then run around the edge and pick up the first down. It's all that's
1:56pretty much all we got. But I'm telling you one thing, as somebody who has Drake May on his fantasy team, if I was off
2:04for Joe Burrow for him, I'd accept easily. No questions asked. Hell, honestly, if I was to offer Jaden Daniels for him, Jaylen Herz for him,
2:14I'd accept again. Four-point passing touchdown format, six-point passing touchdown, maybe a little bit different. But Dre May is no longer in the tier with like
2:22Lamar Jackson. Drake May at the very minimum has to be moving down to the tier with Daniels, Herz, um, Caleb, Dak
2:30Prescott, and Justin Herbert.
2:33And in a six-point passing touchdown format, I'd rather have Dak Prescott.
2:36I'd rather have Justin Herbert.
2:39Unbelievably bad. And let's go over and let's look at the and I I may I may even have to move him
2:47down further. I'm not going to be able to be mentally tough enough to do that.
2:50I'll tell you that much. Let's move over to running back.
2:55So, Raandre Stevenson was a must-ar running back coming into this game because one reason, one reason only, volume. You had no Trevian Henderson. So
3:03obviously this dude was going to get literally every single snap, every single touch out of the backfield, which is effectively what happened here. Like
3:10Readadre comes through, he has six targets, which is only ahead of Deario Douglas for this. I'm only behind Demario Douglas. He has 18 carries. So
3:2124 total opportunities for Stevenson.
3:24And cool, he comes out and he gives you a whopping 14 fantasy points.
3:31It was a tough matchup. And this is probably what we should have expected without a touchdown. But here's the deal. Raandre Stevenson looked worse
3:39than Naji Harris. Raandre Stevenson looked like he had zero juice in those legs. He looked terrific.
3:48Like it's a tough matchup again, but what happens to Remandre Stevenson when all of a sudden we actually have Trevian
4:00Henderson active?
4:03Trevian Henderson playing. Even if Raadre is the starter, Trevian Henderson's going to get on the field more than Corey Kiner.
4:11What if it's a 6040 split where Raadre gets 64 I mean 60% of the opportunities.
4:18Trevian Henderson gets 40%.
4:21Could you start Raadre in that instance?
4:23No. He's unusable.
4:28He looked like garbage. You looked a little better in the second half, but the man had no juice. And now if the
4:34offense is going to be worse with AJ Brown missing time, like going through and looking at my running back rankings, I think I'm going to move Trevian
4:41Henderson ahead of Rodri Stevens. I may move Jaylen Warren ahead of Readadre because at least at this point, right, we can tell ourselves a story. Oh,
4:51Trevian Henderson comes back next week.
4:53They split the backfield 50/50. The coaching staff and Mike Vrabel finally wake up. They finally realize Trevian Henderson at least is an athlete.
5:04Trevian Henderson can break big plays.
5:06He's not going to run into the back of his left guard. So, I think the upside with Trevon at this point, I would trade
5:13Radre straight up for him because I just saw what Raadre Stevenson can do. At least Trevian's an unknown, right? But frankly, I don't know if either of these
5:23running backs would be viable. I don't know if you can rely on any of them. And going over to receiver, this is what
5:28absolutely sucks here is one. AJ Brown did not look good at the beginning of the game. Before he went down, AJ Brown
5:34looked like he was nothing. He looked like he did in Philadelphia last year.
5:39And then AJ Brown goes down and we don't know what the deal is with AJ Brown, right? I'm just going through pulling it
5:45up on Twitter. Again, random thing on Twitter. U I can see that Jet Mueller PT tweets this out. 1.4 4
5:56million views says potentially a double whammy concerned for right high ankle sprain but also right PCL sprain as his knee slammed into the turf. Typically
6:06wouldn't add this part too but given the angle/tor torque of his ankle I really hope his fibula didn't fracture.
6:14Probably not though that's gibberish to me. What I do know is there's a damn good chance AJ Brown's missing a significant amount of time.
6:27If I go through and if I look at where we stand right now with AJ Brown in my rankings coming into this, AJ Brown was
6:34my wide receiver seven. He was inside the same tier as Drake London, Nico Collins, Malik Neighbors, George Pickkins, Rasheed Rice, Chris Ave. You
6:42pick who you want here. Pick your poison. What wide receiver do you like?
6:49Um, but now with the injury concern for AJ Brown and we have no idea what the update is.
6:56He got ruled out pretty early. He left in the boot.
7:02If somebody offered me Chris Ave and I had Adri on my fantasy team, I would hit accept so fast I would break my phone.
7:10So, he definitely doesn't belong in this tier anymore. Not at least until we get an injury update.
7:15And this is something I need to ask the chat. This trade offer has not come across my table, but I like to go
7:21through hypotheticals with my own fantasy team because it's what I can relate to. I have a Mega Egg Bua on my
7:27own fantasy team. If I got an offer tonight before I got the update to the AG Brown injury tomorrow morning, hey
7:35Mason, um, we will give you AG Brown for Ibuka. You have to hit accept right now.
7:42I don't know if I do it. Please spam the chat. Would you rather have AJ Brown or I bua Brown or Ibuka? Let me know
7:51because for me, I think I'm going I bua.
7:56Um, let's see.
8:00We got brown. Brown.
8:05Eggbuka. Eggbuka. Brown. Eggbuka.
8:11Eggbuka. Eggbuka.
8:14Eggbuka. Egg buuka. Ibuka. AJ Brown. Egg buuka. Looks like the majority of people are with me with that. I honestly may
8:21move them down to like wide receiver 20.
8:23Of course. I'm going to update these rankings on the site tomorrow, the next day, the day after. Um, I'm going to
8:29update them every single day. So, once we get official injury news with Adrian Brownell, maybe he jumps right back up to wide receiver 13, wide
8:38receiver 12. He's definitely not going to wide receiver 7 again. I'll tell you that much.
8:43But for now, with the injury, I would not do this just based on performance.
8:48The lowest you can go just based on performance after one week is you stay inside the same tier for me. I can't
8:53drop you down a tier just because you didn't perform the way that I wanted to see you.
8:58But based on the injury, hell, I'm dropping them a tear.
9:03Now, here's what really sucks.
9:08We go and look at the other wide receivers in this New England Patriots offense. Oh, cool. Matt Collins, you had five targets, 51 receiving yards. And
9:16honestly, when they got the ball to him, the man looked good. He definitely looked a hell of a lot better than Romeo
9:22Dobs. I'll tell you that. But would I ever in a million years ever trust Matt Collins? Let's go through and pull this
9:29up. Matt Collins has been in the NFL.
9:31Like I I literally had no idea this.
9:34Matt Collins has been in the NFL according to flockfantasy.com. I I need to double check our numbers here. I don't know if this is true. Since 2017.
9:462017. There's no way. That's the That's the same year Leonard Fornette and Dvin Cook got drafted.
9:56and he has never hit 10 fantasy points per game.
10:03He's 33 years old. I would have never guessed that in a million years.
10:11So, Matt Collins is dust. There's no way in hell you can start this dude. Who's your other option?
10:17Is your other option Romeo Dobs? Romeo Dobs literally looked like the worst wide receiver I've ever seen in my entire life.
10:24If I would have gone out there and ran routes for the New England Patriots, I maybe would have helped the Patriots
10:30more than Romeo Dobs did.
10:34I don't think I could have been worse.
10:36Romeo Dobs zero receptions for three targets.
10:43This dude made out like a bandit.
10:47Seriously, if I was New England ownership, if I was Robert Craft, you know what I'd be doing right now? Here.
10:57Hey. Yeah. Um, we need to get the lawyer team together.
11:01We are putting in a lawsuit. Yeah. We are suing Romeo Dobs for every dollar that we have ever paid him because this man's worth literally
11:13nothing. He scammed us.
11:17I would move him to where you could cut him, but the problem is I don't think you can cut him because obviously the
11:22injury to AJ Brown and then with Deario Douglas, he had seven targets, but Douglas has never done anything. He had his opportunity last year was with the
11:32team last year. What sucks about this is if Kan Booty was still on this team, I'd be excited. If Kahan Booty was on this
11:39team, I'd be rushing to the waiverwire to pick him up. but they traded him to the Houston Texans. And New England, if
11:46you're watching this, y'all should feel like absolute dumb asses for doing so.
11:51Kahan Booty would really help this wide receiver up. And then lastly, going over to tight ends, like, oh, Eli Raran scored a touchdown. Cool.
12:02It's a tight end by committee now with Hunter Henry and Eli Rayan. Hunter Henry, five and a half fantasy points.
12:08Great. Incredible. Bravo. Round of applause. So, running back by committee, tight end by committee, garbage wide receivers,
12:19Drake May's like the only guy that you could possibly start in this offense, and you have to lower expectations before the um where they were before the
12:26AJ Brown injury. So, this sucks. Now, I'm going to move over to the Seattle side of things. And I want to be on
12:37record here that Drew Lockach looked very good, right? At times he looked horrendous. He had one of the worst plays that I had ever seen
12:47at the end of the first half. Like at times garbage, but he made some really good plays as well. Drew Luck, the
12:55defense won Seattle the game, but he definitely helped.
12:59But if Sam Darnold misses this season, which I'll go through and see if we have any update here with Darnold, but if
13:10Darnold misses this year, it's over. Now, the report that we had
13:20as of eight minutes ago, Sheffy says Sam Darnold's initial tests were encouraging but inconclusive on hip injury. will undergo MRI on Thursday. McDonald the
13:31Seahawks able to rule out fractured hip for Sam Darnold. Quote unquote, we got some great news back. Let's just say it's good news right now. Hallelujah.
13:42Thank God because right after it happened, you know what I did is I went over to the rankings and I moved JSN to
13:50the bottom of this tier. I'm gonna be honest with you. I thought, "No, Darnold. If it's Drew Lockach and Jaylen Milro for the rest of the season, I
13:58would rather have St. Brown. I'd rather have Lamb. I'd rather have Jefferson, which pains me so much because you have no idea the amount of JSN I drafted in
14:08baseball this year. And also in the Flock League, Jinxy has JSN. And selfishly, um, I want Jinxy to do well in the Flock League. So, I'm rooting for
14:17him.
14:18And I was like, I I want JSN to do well so bad. One of my favorite players, etc., etc. But now that we got the news
14:26good news with Darnolds, he's right back to where he was before. This dude is so damn talented. As long as the offensive
14:33serviceable, which I know Drew Lock did a fine job this game, but it won't be that way forever, which I think you need
14:39Sam Darnold for that. JSN's right back to where he was at wide receiver three.
14:44It was electric in the Flock League live stream when we add the JSN 45 receiving touchdown. There is not a more classic
14:54stat line to Jackson Smith and Jigba than 122 receiving yards off of 11 targets, eight receptions, and the receiving TD. This is vintage JSN. This
15:05is exactly why you drafted him. And with the good Dardle news, thank God. I needed it so bad. I'm so excited to see
15:13it. Now, moving over to the running back usage. Jadarian Price looked really good every time he touched the ball. like the
15:21stark contrast between Jadarian Price and Raandre Stevenson in terms of how they looked on the TV screen when one guy had the ball versus the other.
15:32Crazy. Jadarian Price didn't score any fantasy points though. Jadarian Price had two receptions for six receiving yards and only 10 carries. So, going
15:40over looking at where I had Jerian Price in my rankings before this and where I'm going to move Jadarian Price after this,
15:47he doesn't move. I am at running back 23, right? I have questions about the volume that he is going to see, but I
15:54think he's probably a really good talented uh player getting selected in round one of the NFL draft. I think the Seahawks are going to bank on Jadarian
16:03Price as their starter this year.
16:05Obviously didn't see a ton of volume this game, but I think Price will have much better games in the future and he
16:10looked really good. But please let me know in the chat right now. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I should move him up. Who
16:16would you rather have? Would you rather have Jadarian Price after he came out and scored seven and a half fantasy points or about eight fantasy points?
16:26Jadarian Price after he scored eight fantasy points. Or would you rather have Quinn Sean Judkins? Because again, the fantasy points garbage. He didn't really
16:35touch the ball very often, but he looked really good when he did. So, Price or Judkins? What do you think? Okay.
16:45Judkins. Price. Price, price, Judkins.
16:48Price, price, Judkins.
16:50Um, Judkins. Price, price, price, price, price. Again, I think he stays in this tier. I'm going to sleep on it. Maybe we
16:59move him over Scat. Maybe we move him over Bucky. Maybe we move him over Judkins. I think we are going to have
17:04some mixing inside this Dtier by the end of the week, but I think he kind of stays in this range. He is who we
17:10thought he was coming into this. Um, he looked really good though. super exciting player to watch and that's kind of what I want to see from Trevian. I
17:17want to see Henderson in New England because I've seen Remadre. It's not fun football. It's boring. It sucks. I want to see Trevian out there so he can
17:24hopefully look like Jerian Price so we have some excitement when he touches the ball. George Alani not worth the roster spot. Emanuel Wilson not worth the
17:31roster spot of course. And then with Cooper Cup, Cooper Cup had a phenomenal grab. Um but he looks so damn slow that
17:38there's no reason a roster in Cooper Cup. Um the Shahed I'm surprised to see.
17:42Um he really made no impact whatsoever in this game. Um maybe I need to go through and move Shah. Where did I have
17:49Shahid in our rankings coming into this?
17:51Let me double check that. I had Shahid at wide receiver 57. So don't think we need to move Shahed in the ranks. Maybe
17:57prefer Keenan over him at this point, but he's in the range of unstartable wide receivers before this. He's unstartable after this. So yeah. Um, and
18:05I know Cooper Cup again had the highlight, one um, arm grab, had a touchdown, called back, etc., etc.
18:11Cooper Cup can't start. He can't generate separation anymore. He's too old and dusted. Sadly, a little too slow. Um, but yeah, I think in Seattle,
18:19it's pretty clear you start Jackson Smith and Jigba and Jarian Price has a ton of long-term upside. You can start him in good matchups, but most
18:26importantly, as soon as you see him take over, is that true um, three down workhorse where they are giving him a
18:31ton of volume, then you absolutely jam a butt. Fingers crossed that we get good news regarding AJ Brown, who currently
18:39is in a boot and Sam Darnold tomorrow. The initial reports make it sound like it's good for Darnold. I really thought I was going to turn on
18:50this live stream and say Darnold may be done for the year and maybe we have to look at moving JSN down to being a mid
18:55wide receiver one rather than a high-end wide receiver one, but no, good news on that end.
19:02And yeah, it's just an absolute disaster class for the Patriots right now. I don't know if we can trust any of these
19:06guys. It was a really tough matchup, but AJ Brown going down, it's just devastating for this offense. It really is. But,
19:15um, I think that's all I got for this stream. Um, I will say, of course, that I'm going to be live streaming every
19:23single day answering your fantasy football questions until, um, Christmas.
19:29I'm going to be live streaming after every single game as well. And I will give a shout out to our sponsor um Poly
19:38Market US where we did manage to lose $10 where we had put $10 on the Patriots to win this game. I think it was to win
19:48like 29 or something. I forgot the exact amount showed in the live stream previously. But of course, if you want to check out any of the stuff on Poly
19:55Market US for tomorrow's game, um right now the Rams have a 65% chance of winning. San Francisco has a 36% chance.
20:04If you want to go through and check out the fantasy football stuff, we can go through and look at Dean Stribbling has
20:10a 43% chance of scoring 10 or more points. Perie, 60% chance going over 16.
20:16Blake Cororm 64% chance for going over eight. But you can find all this stuff on Poly Market US. And yeah, when you
