0:00I just want to help you submit your starting lineup for this week. And you already know you start Gibbs. You already know you start JSN. You already
0:07started Bjan Robinson. You're starting Walker. You're starting Amanra. You're starting Jamar Chase. You're starting CD Lamb. Nothing to talk about with the A
0:15tier. There's also nothing to talk about. If you have McAffrey, Dererick Henry, Jonathan Taylor, James Cook, Ashen Genty, Chase Brown, Devonte Adams,
0:24Chris Ave, or Saquon Barkley, you start them with zero hesitation. I guess maybe we can reference obviously I am making these rankings under the assumption that
0:35Devonte Adams is an absolute jam because Pukanaku is going to miss this week and also the updated practice report that we
0:43have with Barkley is of course he had the stinger injury last week but he did get into full practice on Friday. They
0:50told us that he is going to be a-okay, good to go this weekend. And the Philadelphia Eagles are massive favorites over the Chicago Bears, so
0:58they should be able to run the ball in the second half. Now, moving over to the B tier, this is maybe where you're a
1:03little hesitant in shallow formats.
1:06Justin Jefferson is somebody that obviously I am rooting for in a big time way. I mean, I absolutely love Jettis.
1:14He's the wide receiver one for my own team. The only hesitation you could possibly have to not put him in the top
1:20two tiers this week is we don't know what the offense is going to look like with Kyler Murray, but obviously I'm
1:25going to be optimistic on my wide receiver one. Drake London, you already started last night. Looks like he is fully back with Michael Penn. Trey
1:32McBride here is a really a wide receiver one that you get at the tight end position. So obviously if you're playing
1:39in a regular league, he's in your tight end slot. If you are in a format where your tight end slots a flex, you're
1:46playing him more likely than not. Devon Achan has had a fall from grace in the rankings. Right? If we go through and
1:53look at his ranking overtime on flockfantasy.com, he started off the beginning of the summer up at about 12 overall. He has fallen down to 19
2:01overall. And this is going to be a tough matchup that he has here having to play against a very good Kansas City Chiefs
2:09team. And if you look at this Chiefs setup right now, they are massive favorites. They're 11 point favorites over the Miami offense. HN will get used
2:19as a receiver though, so lowered expectations, but you start them. You already started Christian Watson.
2:23Christian Watson was an absolute jam with how that Packers offense projected out. Super happy we did. I got those points in my lineup. Thank God. Devont
2:31Smith is going to be a very interesting name to be on the lookout for because right now you have Devont Smith missing
2:39practice on Wednesday as well as Thursday, but he did get in some practice on Friday, not a full session.
2:49The problem with starting Devont Smith here is if we go ahead and look at this Eagles Bears game, this is the Monday
2:57night game. So, if we don't get clearance from Devonte Smith this weekend, you may want to play it safe.
3:03Now, you're not going to see any Chicago Bears for a while in this video, speaking of this game, because damn, look, before the Caleb Williams injury,
3:12the Bears had a 57% chance of winning this. But after Caleb got injured, that went down to a 32% chance on Poly Market
3:20US. Right now, the Chicago Bears project to be one of the worst offenses in the entire league, projecting only to score
3:2717 and a half points this week. But obviously, if you want to check out any of these markets, the link to Poly
3:33Market US is always in the description.
3:35It's always in the comment section. Sign up with code flock. You'll get $50 added to your account after you deposit your
3:40first 10. And Poly Market US is available in every single state outside of Nevada. Now, moving over to our next player, we are going to have Chuba
3:50Hubard. Hubard is an automatic jam at this point. He is averaging 19 fantasy points per game. You have no Jonathan Brooks. And this is a game in which the
3:58Carolina Panthers can very easily win and very easily run the ball in the second half playing against the Chicago Bears. So, um, Chuba Hubard looks like
4:06he's probably one of the best picks in fantasy drafts, at least where he went in my league, given the volume that he
4:11is just guaranteed to see every week that you have no Brooks, which will be a while. Bree Hall here is playing at
4:18Detroit now. Good news, bad news. Bad news is Breeall still plays for the Jets. So they are five and a half point
4:24dogs in this. But the good news is this is a bad Detroit Lions defense. So the Jets hopefully should be able to move
4:31the ball down the field. Now Javvante Williams in the last spot of Btier. He's going to get guaranteed work, right? I
4:40mean, he is seeing every single touch in this backfield. He played 80% of the snaps this past week. He's not a super
4:47explosive running back. He's not a super um talented running back, but it doesn't matter. This is a good offense, good game environment, and he's just going to
4:55get the ball so damn much. Now, moving over to our seats here. Now, the problem that you have with Amari and Hampton,
5:02even though this is a player I did like coming into the year, is that the Los Angeles Chargers are garbage. So, we can
5:10see that they are massive dogs in this game. And yeah, Marin Hampton has been falling down the rankings on flockfantasy.com as you'd expect. And
5:18the sad thing for Hampton will be the Buffalo Bills are going to be trailing a lot of these games. Now, moving over to
5:27our next one, we are going to be looking at Bucky Irving. Bucky Irving's usage has been incredible. The problem is going to be that he plays for the Tampa
5:36Bay Buccaneers in a tough matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, but you're most likely starting him, of course, and the receiving volume is
5:43going to keep you afloat. But as somebody who has a buuka on their own roster, for the love of God, Tampa,
5:48please turn things around. George Pickins at 28. George Pickkins has been horrendous so far this season, but I do think that Pickkins is one of the more
5:57intriguing Bo candidates that you can have in fantasy right now. And I think we could get this first pickins blowup game going up against the Baltimore
6:05Ravens in Brazil where the overunder of this contest is over 51 points. So there should be a ton of action. Now Kairen
6:12Williams is still the lead running back here in what projects to be a very good offense. This is a tough matchup going
6:19up against Denver even if Kenneth Walker ran all over them in week one. But Aka is somebody that I'm just starting until
6:28Blake Corbin officially takes the job.
6:30Garrett Wilson has safe target volume.
6:33Omar Cooper on the IR. Kenyan Sadique the rookie tight end doing nothing. And this is a garbage defense for the Detroit Lions. They rank 31st in
6:44opposing wide receiver points.
6:46Obviously, we had just seen what the Buffalo Bills did to this DST. So, yeah.
6:51Um, Garrett Wilson should be able to easily eat here with volume in a good matchup. Parker Washington, massive, massive riser. Nobody has risen more in
7:01the expert average rankings on flockfantasy.com than Parker Washington so far this season. He has cemented himself as the true wide receiver one for Trevor
7:10Lawrence. It's a decent spot in which the Jacksonville Jaguars project score over 24 points against the New England Patriots. So, if you have Parker
7:18Washington, obviously you are going through. you are jamming them. Now, looking at Tedo and McMillan, McMillan projects very well playing against the
7:28Cleveland Browns here. Um, yes, the Cleveland Browns were pretty good against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week. Week one, they gave up a zillion
7:36points to opposing Jacksonville Jaguars receivers. The thing to be on the lookout here for the Carolina players is we actually did have Jaylen Coker uh
7:46looking like he was probably going to miss this game with an ankle injury. But right before I recorded this super late
7:51on Friday night, they did tell us Coker's most likely going to play. But my assumption at the moment will be that
7:57Jaylen Coker may be a little bit limited and obviously that is going to help McMillan in this instance. Then going over to Rashi Rice. Um Rice has been
8:06disappointing because a lot of the short area dump offs that previously went to him because the Chiefs had no running back. Now they just use Kenneth Walker
8:14for. So the usage hasn't been great.
8:16This is a game in which we're not expecting the Chiefs to have to throw the ball 50 plus times with the Miami
8:21Dolphins playing in Miami. So I still think you start Rice until we see otherwise, but with lowered expectations.
8:29Now, moving over to our next here, we are going to have T. H I H I H I H I H I
8:32H I H I H I H I H Igggins leading us off. So, super concentrated targetry that we have here in Cincinnati. Um
8:38Pittsburgh hasn't allowed a ton of points to opposing wide receivers so far this year. I mean, we just saw what happened with the New England Patriots
8:45last week where obviously the Patriots just ran the ball over and over again this Steelers defense, but still everything's going to go through Chase,
8:53everything's going to go through Higgins. So, I think you're starting Higgins given the concentrated targets.
8:57Mike Evans will be our next name. I am stressing having to play against Mike Evans in this spot because again, San
9:05Francisco has everybody hurt. Deshun Shribbling by. Um, even Christian Kirk by Ricky Pierol by before the season even got here. Now, Mike Evans did miss
9:15practice on Wednesday. He did miss practice on Thursday, but he got into Friday practice and it sounds like he is most likely going to be good to go. Now,
9:24of course, this will be something that you need to continue to monitor though because there is no guarantee that we have right this second. Now, going over
9:32to Jaylen Wadd. Um Jaylen Wadd toughest matchup against the Rams. The Broncos did project out a little bit better last week in comparison to what they are
9:40doing this week, but um still I think you got to play him. Week two, the usage was phenomenal. Week one against Kansas
9:47City, Boicks just crapped his pants. I don't expect that to happen very very often. Malik Neighbors here. I am playing against Malik Neighbors as well
9:55this week and he is fully off of the injury report. So I think you have to assume that Neighbors is a-ok okay good
10:03to go and at the same time the Giants do project to score over 20 points in this game. So I am kind of hoping that Malik
10:11Neighbors is used as a decoy because I have to go up against him. But I wouldn't be surprised at all if one week
10:17from now Malik Neighbors is back up here in this tier with George Pickkins. I just want to be a little bit hesitant
10:22with the ranking because obviously there is some uncertainty with the situation.
10:25Lad Maki has been practicing in full since the very beginning of the week.
10:29And on top of this, the injuries that we have to the tight ends for the Los Angeles Chargers does make me a little
10:36bit more optimistic that they may use Lad and just pepper him close to the line of scrimmage over the middle of the
10:42field. So, I think Lad is a riser with all the injuries that we've had to the tight ends in Los Angeles. This is a
10:49game in which the Chargers are going to have to throw the ball a ton against Buffalo. So, I think we run it like the
10:55Bills have been the 30th offense in the league in terms of allowing points to opposing wide receivers. Like we just saw Monro St. Brown run it up against
11:03them last week. Cam Scataboo in this same offense here with Malik Neighbors where the Giants are actually favored in this game, right? There going to be very
11:10few games all year long in which the Giants are favored with no Jackson dart, but playing against Tennessee at home will be one of those. The problem that
11:19you have with Scat is right now he's being used in a running back by committee. Bashel Tutin has a pretty nice workload here in Jacksonville. He
11:27has cemented himself as the starting running back. Problem that you have with Tuton though is he's not getting everything on third downs, right?
11:33Laquent Allen's coming in. Lquit Allen is sh taking some of those cheap targets. So hopefully Toutton can expand that receiving game skill set, but I
11:42think he has it. It just needs to be used. David McGomery will be our next guy playing in Indianapolis. My hesitation with the David McGomery
11:49ranking is obviously we are expecting Nico Collins to not play. I think Nico's actually already been ruled out at the time of making this. Um, and in that
11:58instance, like if I am looking at this Texans offense with how it looked last week, it looked garbage, right?
12:07I think we have to lower our expectations on the Texans offense in general and their ability to space the field if they have no Nico, which again
12:18looks to be the case. It's already been confirmed. Now going over to Dalton Concincaid Concade is my tight end that I have on my team. I'm rooting for him
12:27in this game. The Buffalo Bills project to be a top three offense in the league in points scored. So, I would want to
12:33see Cancade go through and continue to lead this team in targets. DJ Moore does look like he is most likely going to
12:40play, but at the same time, DJ Moore did miss a considerable amount of practice this week, so wouldn't be the most
12:46surprising thing in the world if they do just um get forced to lean on Concaid.
12:52Now, going over to Jaylen Coker, again, you have to monitor the Jaylen Coker ankle stuff. As it stands right now, they are telling us that he is going to
13:00play and he's averaged over 24 fantasy points per game. He's been the wide receiver one over Tedaro McMillan.
13:06Again, coming into this season, my expectations were Tet was the wide receiver one here. Um, I think it was maybe just small sample randomness why
13:14Coker has been that go-to guy and the fact that Coker has dealt with the ankle. I don't want to be a little bit
13:19more hesitant on him than what we are with Mr. McMillan. Now going over to E tier, we're gonna be led off with acha
13:26Eggbuka. My friend, please for the love of God, do something.
13:31Whether it's your fault, whether it's Baker's fault of why you're not producing, I don't know. I don't care.
13:36But dear God, I need some McBuka points to save my life here. It's a tough matchup though, going up against the
13:42Minnesota Vikings. Again, it has not been good up until this point because like Baker Mayfield and this offense have not been able to get things going.
13:52Looking at Quinnshan Judkins, Judkins is averaging eight and a half fantasy points at the moment, but the underlying usage looks pretty good, especially
14:01considering the fact that Dylan Samson is on the IR. So, we uh now have here from Quinn Sean Judkins is him actually
14:09going through and expanding his role as a receiver, which is something we hadn't had in the past. Now, going over to
14:17Aaron Jones, Aaron Jones has been cleared. He is good to go. And very similar to Judkins, he is just going to
14:23see a ridiculous amount of volume. Now, do I think that Aaron Jones is the most talented running back? No. I don't think
14:30Aaron Jones is the most talented running back in the league by any stretch of the imagination, but this is a matchup in
14:36which you do have the Minnesota Vikings favored over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
14:40Aaron Jones had a considerable amount of volume when he was healthy last week. I think what you want to see from Aaron
14:46Jones, though, is you want to see him expand his role as a receiver. Jaylen Boren also probably looks like somebody you got to play, right? I would say all
14:53three of these running backs are running backs where I don't love their offenses.
14:57I I don't love the running backs themselves, but they just project to get volume volume. Right now, it looks like Rico Dattle is most likely going to miss
15:05this week. And even though Jaylen Warren is arguably um in one of the worst offenses in the NFL and what historically has been a tough matchup
15:14where Cincinnati's defense has been balling here, um I don't know. I think Warren, you probably jam. Looking at DeAndre Swift, DeAndre Swift has been
15:23much much better than these other running backs so far this season, right?
15:26Swift averaging 22 and a half fantasy points per game. But look at the projections we now have for this Chicago Bears offense. Right now, the Bears
15:35project to be a worse offense than the Cleveland Browns this week. They project to be a worse offense than the Cincinnati Bengals. We already showed
15:42this on Poly Market US, but before the Caleb injury, they had something like a 70% chance of winning this game. And
15:49then after the Caleb injury, they're down to like 30%. It's a fundamentally different offense. I mean, even their quarterback, too, looks like they may
15:57miss. And DeAndre Swift is still splitting to some capacity with Kyle Manungai. So, I'm not super excited for you to go through and just jam in
16:08DeAndre. Now, Matthew Golden, you already started last night. At least hopefully you did. Moving over to Brock Bowers. So, here's the setup that we
16:17have for Bowers. Bowowers was limited in practice on Wednesday. He was limited in practice on Thursday and then he missed
16:27practice on Friday and they said this was the plan blah blah blah. So, I don't know what's going down. Hopefully, we
16:35get some more word um of what the role for Bowers is going to be this week on Saturday or Sunday morning. You
16:44definitely have to plan on playing him if you have him, but I have lowered expectations in comparison to where we did a couple days ago. Dalton Schultz
16:51looks like he is an absolute jam just like he was last week. Again, when you have no Nico Collins, they're just
16:56simply going to have to find the way to get the ball to somebody. And Dalton Schultz will be that somebody that is
17:03flooded with cheap cheap target volume.
17:06Now, DJ Moore did miss practice on Wednesday, did miss practice on Thursday, but DJ Moore did get in practice on Friday today. So, it sounds
17:18like DJ Moore is probably going to play.
17:20I don't know if he's going to be limited with this shoulder, which again is why I would prefer Dalton Concaid between the
17:26two of them here. But if I had DJ Moore, just given how good this offense is, I probably would still go through and play
17:33him. Now, moving over to our F tier, Jeremiah Love will be a running back that continues to uptrend in my rankings
17:43um until the very end of the season.
17:44Like I think Jeremiah Love in the second half of the year can very easily be a league winner, but again with all these
17:51rookies, we've been saying it for the first three weeks of the year, whether you drafted Carnell Tate, whether you drafted Jeremiah Love, you don't need to
17:57play them right away, you can always bench them, wait for the breakout, and then play them the week after, which is
18:03what I would try to continue to do here with Love, to be honest. Now, here with Sam Leaporta, this projects to be a very high-scoring
18:11game, right? There's like a 50 point overunder on this game. Leaporta has been getting consistent target volume through the first two weeks. So I think
18:19very much like if you're sitting with Trey McBride and Sam Leaporta, you probably should look to sell Leaporta to a team that needs a tight end. See if
18:26you can get a wide receiver upgrade. But if somehow you have both of these tight ends, you should definitely just go
18:32through and flex them. Jaren Price looks like he is going to be a okay and will be healthy for this game at Washington.
18:39Sounds like we will get Darnold back in here. The Seattle Seahawks are heavily favored where they should be able to run
18:45the ball in the second half. Now, Travis ETN is the running back two on my own team. This dude's a bum. I hate him. I
18:52hate that he's on my team. I hate that I traded for him. Obviously, that all goes without being said. Now, I will say he
19:00did miss practice earlier in the week where he was limited in practice with the hamstrings. So, that is going to be
19:04something to monitor. This is a good matchup though where the Saints are favored here over the Raiders at home.
19:13And if we are looking at what we have with Travis ETN, he could just walk himself into a touchdown, which is kind of best case
19:21scenario here if you have ETN like I do.
19:25Now, going over to Jameson Williams, I also have this dude has been so damn frustrating. Um, here's what I'm telling myself. I'm telling myself that if this
19:35Detroit Lions defense is really this bad, they're gonna have to throw the ball at Don in the second half. And I
19:40think Jameson Williams is still the same wide receiver he was last year, still the same wide receiver that he was the
19:45year before. I think he's still a very talented player and we just have to just wait for the big blowup week. So, I'm
19:52starting him. I'm not trading him away because I do think we are getting one of these random 25point games from him
19:58relatively soon.
20:01Now looking at Josh DS, Josh DS is a very tough matchup this week having to play against the Houston Texans. But the
20:09benefit that you get is you have no Alec Pierce. So Josh D is probably just going to get flooded with targets, right? It's
20:17a tough matchup again, but the offense projects to still score 20 points, which is a little bit surprising to me. Now
20:24going over to Trevon Henderson. If I had to start a running back here in New England, I would go Henderson. But I
20:30would rather wait a couple more weeks and see if we actually end up getting things changing here with how this backfield splits their touches between
20:40Hendo and Readadre before you fully commit to putting one in your lineup.
20:44Um, Debo Samuel, you can 100% consider given all the injuries that we have in San Francisco and the fact that the
20:51Niners project to be a top three offense in the league. Now, with that in mind, if we were to get Mike Evans missing
20:58this game, then Debo Samuel skyrockets up these ranks. DK Metaf getting a ton of target volume. I have to play against
21:05him this week. I'm really hoping that he does nothing. Um, but if he just holds on to the ball, the fantasy points will
21:11be much, much better than they have been. Devon Vele is in a spot in which the Saints offense continue to um prove
21:20over and over again they're viable.
21:22They're projecting out to be an above average offense right now. You have no Jordan Tyson, so Devon Veil is the second option here and he 100% has
21:31earned the rise and he is startable. Now going to Rashad Baitman. Rashad Baitman I told a bunch of people to bench in
21:41week two. It was an absolute horrendous call, but I will say I do think he is still a boom bust flex option. I'm not
21:49necessarily viewing him as somebody that is an absolute jam here regardless.
21:56Now, going over to Adani Mitchell, um a 480 Mitchell, you do have to monitor. I think he has a thumb injury, but it's the best matchup
22:06and best setup possible going up against a very bad Detroit Lions defense while at the same time
22:15like you have no Omar Cooper and again the rookie tight end with Kenyan Sadi's not doing anything. So the fact of the
22:23matter is I think you're in a pretty good spot for Adonai Mitchell situationally even if I don't love the player. Travis Kelce, you can absolutely
22:32jam. Like Kelsey, I have no idea how he continues to do this at what does he turn 37 years old later this year.
22:40Arguably the best tight end of all time, and he probably is. Incredible. And this matchup's one in which they don't have
22:49to throw the ball against Miami, but they didn't have to throw the ball week one. And Kelsey still came out with 71
22:55receiving yards. Now, Denzel Boston at 66 is trending towards being an every week starter. We've had a young rookie breakout here that obviously had
23:04pedigree coming into the NFL draft. My only hesitation with it, of course, is the fact that he is a Cleveland Browns. So, I do want
23:12to be a little hesitant. I'm afraid that the bottom may fall out from the Browns.
23:17And then Trey Tucker will be your other flexworthy name. Very similar to some of these other guys that we'd be looking
23:22at, right? I do think that Denzel Boston you could see a boom bust name. I I think with Trey Tucker could be very
23:31boom bust, but regardless they're flexorthies just because of the roles that they have in their offense. Now going over to the
23:40H tier, Tyler Warren does have himself a tough matchup against Houston. Typically Tyler Warren would be a little bit higher in these ranks for me. Michael
23:48Wilson has cemented himself as the wide receiver one in um Arizona over Marvin Harrison. Raandre Stevenson again I would rather bench both New England
23:58Patriots running backs. Blake Cororm premium handcuff if you were to get an injury to Kairen Corm wins you league.
24:07Tony Pard has only scored six fantasy points per game so far this season. But in this setup here specifically, like who knows, the Tennessee Titans may be
24:15able to win this game and run the ball in the second half. Uh George KD working himself back from this torn
24:21Achilles once he is 100% given the fact that this team has no weapons. KD could be an absolute monster. Stefon Diggs has
24:28been a monster so far this year, but it's a really tough matchup that you have going up against the Seattle Seahawks defense, which I believe the
24:35Seattle Seahawks have given up the fewest amount of points to opposing wide receivers all season now. while at the same time the Washington Commanders
24:46project to score 16 1.5 points this week. So they project to be the worst offense in the league which is why again
24:52Stefon Diggs, Terry McLaren will be below these waiverwire wide receivers for me like Adenai Mitchell Denzel Boston. Um Terren Ferguson you can 100%
25:01look at starting with no Puka Nua. I think most of y'all probably have him at tight end but he's even potentially flex
25:08worthy. Same thing with Mark Andrews and Jose Flowers and then JK Dobbins, RJ Harvey. It's a tough matchup against the Rams. I'd rather not start either one,
25:16but it's funny that in the Waverwire video, we thought that all of a sudden we were actually going to be seeing
25:24Jonah Coleman be the only healthy running back here in Denver and it's completely flipped. Now, going over to these other names, these are names that
25:30you kind of have to have on your bench.
25:31Um, unless obviously it's the tight ends. You play Isaiah likely a tight end. Romeo Dobs needs to be on your bench though. Chris Godwin needs to be
25:38on your bench. Brian Thomas on your bench. Cardell Tate on your bench.
25:42Tucker Craft, if you played him, you played him. Jawan Johnson, you can play him at tight end. Don't flex him. Jaka
25:47Crossit on your bench. Rashad White on your bench. And then the Jtier, Luther Burton, horrendous play this week. For the love of God, do not start Luther
25:56Burton. He's on your bench. Um Jake Furry can play him at tight end, not the flex. Same thing. Fannon Roma Dunce,
26:02horrendous play. Do not play him this week. Tough matchup. No quarterback.
26:05We're assuming Z Flowers misses. Xavier Worthy can't play him. Cleo Shakir can't play him. Quinton Johnson can't play him. Jordan Addison, no. Jacobe, no.
26:13Hunter Henry, no. And Coloulston Loveland, no as well. But I really appreciate you. Hope I was able to help you out in some way with this. And of
26:22course, if you wanted to go through and check out any of those markets on Poly Market US, you can find the link in the
